WHEREAS, the parties to the Existing Credit Agreement wish to amend and restate without novation of any kind the Existing Credit Agreement;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements contained herein, the parties hereto hereby agree that the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety, without novation, as follows:

SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS

1.1 Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the terms listed in this Section 1.1 shall have the respective meanings set forth in this Section 1.1.

“ABR”: for any day, a rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next 1/16 of 1%) equal to the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus ¹/₂ of 1% and (c) the Eurodollar Rate that would be calculated as of such day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, as of the next preceding Business Day) in respect of a proposed Eurodollar Loan with a one-month Interest Period plus 1.0%. Any change in the ABR due to a change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or such Eurodollar Rate shall be effective as of the opening of business on the day of such change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or such Eurodollar Rate, respectively.

“ABR Loans”: Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the ABR.

“Acceptance Fee”: a fee payable in Canadian Dollars by a Borrower with respect to the acceptance of a Bankers’ Acceptance by a Lender under this Agreement, as set forth in Section 2.13.

Morgan Europe Limited, and therefore all notices concerning such Loans or Letters of Credit, as the case may be, will be required to be given at the Euro Funding Office), and for purposes of Sections 9.3, 9.7 and 10.5, its Affiliate, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, and Scotiabank and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as the arrangers of the Revolving Commitments.

“Affiliate”: as to any Person, any other Person that, directly or indirectly, is in control of, is controlled by, or is under common control with, such Person. For purposes of this definition, “control” of a Person means the power, directly or indirectly, either to (a) vote 10% or more of the securities having ordinary voting power for the election of directors (or persons performing similar functions) of such Person or (b) direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such Person, whether by contract or otherwise.

“Agents”: the collective reference to the Syndication Agents, the Documentation Agents and the Administrative Agent.

“Aggregate Exposure”: with respect to any Lender at any time, an amount equal to the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment then in effect or, if the Total Revolving Commitments have been terminated, the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Extensions of Credit then outstanding.

“Aggregate Exposure Percentage”: with respect to any Lender at any time, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure at such time to the Aggregate Exposure of all Lenders at such time.

“Agreement”: as defined in the preamble hereto.

“AML Legislation”: as defined in Section 10.20.

“Anti-Corruption Laws”: the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended.

“Applicable Margin”: for each Type and Class of Loan, the applicable rate per annum set forth in the Applicable Pricing Grid.

“Applicable Pricing Grid”: the table set forth below:


Level	Corporate Rating	Bankers’ Acceptances/ Eurodollar Loan Applicable Margin/ EURIBOR Loan Applicable Margin	US Base Rate Loan / ABR Loan / Canadian Prime Rate Loan Applicable Margin	Facility Fee
I	Corporate Ratings of at least BBB+ by S&P/Baa1 by Moody’s	1.00%	0.0%	0.125%
II	Corporate Ratings of at least BBB by S&P/Baa2 by Moody’s and not Level I	1.10%	0.10%	0.15%
III	Corporate Ratings of at least BBB- by S&P/Baa3 by Moody’s and not Level I or II	1.30%	0.30%	0.20%
IV	Corporate Ratings of at least BB+ by S&P/Ba1 by Moody’s and not Level I, II or III	1.50%	0.50%	0.25%
V	Corporate Ratings below Level IV	1.70%	0.70%	0.30%

“Corporate Rating” is the public, corporate credit rating of the Parent Borrower or, if no such rating is available, the rating for the senior, unsecured, long-term indebtedness for borrowed money of the Parent Borrower.

For purposes of the foregoing, (i) if either Moody’s or S&P shall not have in effect a Corporate Rating (other than by reason of the circumstances referred to in the last sentence of this definition), then such rating agency shall be deemed to have established a rating in Level V; (ii) if the Corporate Ratings established or deemed to have been established by Moody’s and S&P shall fall within different Levels, the pricing shall be based on the higher of the two ratings unless one of the two ratings is two or more Levels lower than the other, in which case the pricing shall be determined by reference to the Level next below that of the higher of the two ratings; and (iii) if the Corporate Rating established or deemed to have been established by Moody’s or S&P shall be changed (other than as a result of a change in the rating system of Moody’s or S&P), such change shall be effective as of the date on which it is first announced by the applicable rating agency, irrespective of when notice of such change shall have been furnished by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. Each change in pricing shall apply during the period commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change. If the rating system of Moody’s or S&P shall change, or if either such rating agency shall cease to be in the business of assigning corporate ratings, the Borrowers and the Lenders shall negotiate in good faith to amend this pricing grid to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of such ratings from such rating agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the pricing shall be determined by reference to the rating most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation. For purposes of this paragraph, the term “pricing” shall refer collectively to “Bankers’ Acceptances / Eurodollar Loan Applicable Margin / EURIBOR Loan Applicable Margin”, “US Base Rate Loan / ABR Loan / Canadian Prime Rate Loan Applicable Margin” and “Facility Fee”.

“Application”: an application, in such form as each Issuing Lender may specify from time to time, requesting such Issuing Lender to open a Letter of Credit.

“Board”: the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States (or any successor).

“Borrower Termination Notice”: a Borrower Termination Notice substantially in the form of Exhibit J.

“Borrowers”: the collective reference to the Parent Borrower, the Subsidiary Borrower, the Canadian Borrower and any Additional Borrower (in the case of each of the Subsidiary Borrower, the Canadian Borrower and any such Additional Borrower, until such time as it has been terminated as a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.24(b)).

In the event that such rate is not available, the Canadian Exchange Rate shall be determined by reference to such other publicly available service for displaying exchange rates as may be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower or, in the absence of such agreement, the Canadian Exchange Rate shall instead be the spot rate of exchange of the Administrative Agent in the London interbank market or other market where its foreign currency exchange operations in respect of Canadian Dollars are then being conducted, at or about 11:00 A.M., local time, on such date; provided, however, that if at the time of any such determination, for any reason, no such spot rate is being quoted, the Administrative Agent may use any reasonable method it deems appropriate to determine such rate, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS

2.1 Revolving Commitments.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (i) (x) each Tranche 1 Revolving Lender separately agrees to make revolving credit loans denominated in US Dollars to any Borrower (such loans, the “US Revolving Loans”), (y) each Tranche 1 Revolving Lender separately agrees to make revolving credit loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, and extend credit by way of Bankers’ Acceptances, to any Borrower (such loans and acceptance of Bankers’ Acceptances, the “Canadian Revolving Loans”) and (z) each Tranche 1 Revolving Lender separately agrees to make revolving credit loans denominated in Euros to any Borrower (such loans, the “Euro Revolving Loans” and, together with the US Revolving Loans and the Canadian Revolving Loans, the “Revolving Loans”) from time to time during the Revolving Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding which, when added to such Lender’s Tranche 1 Revolving Percentage of the sum of (A) the L/C Obligations then outstanding and (B) the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans then outstanding, does not exceed the amount of such Lender’s Tranche 1 Revolving Commitment; provided, that (1) the Tranche 1 Revolving Lenders shall have no obligation to make any Canadian Revolving Loans if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of the Canadian Revolving Loans then outstanding and the L/C Obligations and the Swingline Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars then outstanding would exceed the Canadian Dollar Equivalent of US$150,000,000 and (2) the Tranche 1 Revolving Lenders shall have no obligation to make any Euro Revolving Loans if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of the Euro Revolving Loans then outstanding and the L/C Obligations denominated in Euros then outstanding would exceed the Euro Equivalent of US$200,000,000; and (ii) each Tranche 2 Revolving Lender agrees to make US Revolving Loans from time to time during the Revolving Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding which does not exceed the amount of such Lender’s Tranche 2 Revolving Commitment. During the Revolving Commitment Period, each Borrower may use the Revolving Commitments by borrowing, prepaying the Revolving Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing (including, in the case of Canadian Revolving Loans, by requesting the Tranche 1 Revolving Lenders to accept and purchase Bankers’ Acceptances), all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. The Revolving Loans may from time to time be (1) Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans, in the case of US Revolving Loans, (2) US Base Rate Loans, in the case of US Revolving Loans borrowed by the Canadian Borrower or any Canadian Additional Borrower, (3) Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Banker’s Acceptances, in the case of Canadian Revolving Loans or (4) EURIBOR Loans, in the case of Euro Revolving Loans, in each case as determined by the relevant Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.2, 2.3 and 2.11.

(b) Each Borrower shall repay all its outstanding Revolving Loans in US Dollars Canadian Dollars or Euros, as the case may be, on the earlier of (x) the Termination Date and (y) the date on which a Change of Control shall occur.

(c) The Termination Date with respect to the Revolving Commitments may be extended annually, in the manner set forth in this Section 2.1(c), in each case for a period of one year measured from the Termination Date then in effect. If the Borrowers wish to request an extension of the Termination Date, they shall jointly give notice to that effect to the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time after the first anniversary of the Closing Date and not less than 45 days prior to the Termination Date then in effect. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of receipt of such request. Each Lender shall endeavor to respond to such request, whether affirmatively or negatively (such determination in the sole discretion of such Lender), by notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent within 30 days of receipt of such request. Subject to the execution by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and such Lender of a duly completed Extension Agreement, the Termination Date applicable to the Revolving Commitment of each Lender so affirmatively notifying the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall be extended for the period specified above; provided that (x) no Termination Date of any Lender shall be extended unless Lenders having at least 50% in aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments in effect at the time any such extension is requested shall have elected so to extend their Revolving Commitments, (y) on the date of any such extension of the Termination Date, each of the representations and warranties made by each Borrower herein shall be true and correct in all material respects, on and as of such date as if made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date and (z) no Termination Date of any Lender shall be extended if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Any Lender which does not give such notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have elected not to extend as requested, and the Revolving Commitment of each non-extending Lender shall terminate on the earlier of (x) the Termination Date and (y) the date on which a Change of Control shall occur, determined without giving effect to such requested extension. The Borrowers, at their discretion, will have the right at any time pursuant to Section 10.1(b) to seek a substitute bank or banks for any Lender which does not elect to extend its Revolving Commitment. Following any such extension, the L/C Obligations shall continue to be held ratably among the Tranche 1 Revolving Lenders, but on the Termination Date as applicable to any non-extending Revolving Lender, the L/C Obligations of such non-extending Revolving Lender shall be ratably reallocated, to the extent of the Available Revolving Commitments of the extending Tranche 1 Revolving Lenders to the extending Tranche 1 Revolving Lenders (without regard to whether the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 can then be satisfied) and the applicable Borrower shall cash collateralize the balance of such L/C Obligations.

2.2 Procedure for Revolving Loan Borrowing. A Borrower may borrow under the Revolving Commitments during the Revolving Commitment Period on any Business Day, provided that (a) with respect to US Revolving Loans, such Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 10:00 A.M., on the Closing Date for Loans requested to be made on the Closing Date, three Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Eurodollar Loans or one Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of ABR Loans or US Base Rate Loans), specifying (i) the amount and Type of US Revolving Loans to be borrowed, (ii) whether such Revolving Loans shall be borrowed pursuant to the Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments or the Tranche 2 Revolving Commitments, (iii) the requested Borrowing Date, and (iv) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the length of the initial Interest Period, (b) with respect to Canadian Revolving Loans, such Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 10:00 A.M., on the Closing Date for Loans requested to be made on the Closing Date, two Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Bankers’ Acceptances or one Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing Date in the case of Canadian Prime Rate Loans), specifying (i) the amount and Type of Canadian Revolving Loans to be borrowed, (ii) the requested Borrowing Date and (iii) in the case of Bankers’ Acceptances, the length of the initial Contract Period therefor and (c) with respect to Euro Revolving Loans, such Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 10:00 A.M., London time, four Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date), specifying (i) the amount of Euro Revolving Loans to be borrowed, (ii) the requested Borrowing Date and (iii) the length of the initial Interest Period therefor. Each borrowing under the Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount equal to US$10,000,000, C$10,000,000 or €10,000,000, as applicable, or a whole multiple of US$1,000,000, C$1,000,000 or €1,000,000 in excess thereof or, if the then aggregate Available Revolving Commitments are less than US$10,000,000, such lesser amount (or the applicable US Dollar Equivalent thereof); provided, that each Swingline Lender and each Issuing Lender may request, on behalf of a Borrower, borrowings under the Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments that are ABR Loans, US Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans in other amounts pursuant to Section 2.6 and Section 3.5, respectively. Upon receipt of any such notice from the relevant Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable Class thereof. Each Tranche 1 Revolving Lender or Tranche 2 Revolving Lender, as the case may be, will make the amount of its pro rata share of each borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Borrower at the relevant Funding Office prior to 12:00 Noon, on the Borrowing Date requested by such Borrower in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will then be made available to such Borrower by the Administrative Agent crediting an account as directed by such Borrower with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the applicable Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent. Each Tranche 1 Revolving Lender shall make available to any Borrower Bankers’ Acceptance borrowings during the Revolving Commitment Period, in accordance with and pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.3.

2.3 Bankers’ Acceptances.

(a) Term. Each Bankers’ Acceptance shall have a Contract Period of approximately thirty days, sixty days, ninety days or one hundred and eighty days or (with the consent of each affected Lender) two hundred and seventy days or three hundred and sixty-five days, subject to availability. No Contract Period shall extend beyond the Termination Date. If such Contract Period would otherwise end on a day that is not a Business Day, such Contract Period shall end on the next preceding day that is a Business Day.

(b) Discount Rate. On each Borrowing Date on which Bankers’ Acceptances are to be accepted, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Borrower as to the Administrative Agent’s determination of the applicable Discount Rate for the Bankers’ Acceptances which any of the Tranche 1 Revolving Lenders have agreed to purchase.

(c) Purchase. Each Tranche 1 Revolving Lender agrees to purchase a Bankers’ Acceptance accepted by it. The applicable Borrower shall sell, and such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender shall purchase, the Bankers’ Acceptance at the applicable Discount Rate. Such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender shall provide to the relevant Funding Office the Discount Proceeds less the Acceptance Fee payable by such Borrower with respect to such Bankers’ Acceptance. Such proceeds will then be made available to such Borrower by the Administrative Agent crediting an account as directed by such Borrower with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by such Tranche 1 Revolving Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

(d) Sale. Each Tranche 1 Revolving Lender may from time to time hold, sell, rediscount or otherwise dispose of any or all Bankers’ Acceptances accepted and purchased by it.

(e) Power of Attorney for the Execution of Bankers’ Acceptances. To facilitate borrowings under the Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments by way of BAs, each Borrower hereby appoints each Tranche 1 Revolving Lender as its attorney to sign and endorse on its behalf, in handwriting or by facsimile or mechanical signature as and when deemed necessary by such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender, blank forms of BAs. In this respect, it is each Tranche 1 Revolving Lender’s responsibility to maintain an adequate supply of blank forms of BAs for acceptance under this Agreement. Each Borrower recognizes and agrees that all BAs required to be accepted and purchased by any Tranche 1 Revolving Lender and which are signed and/or endorsed on its behalf by a Tranche 1 Revolving Lender shall bind such Borrower as fully and effectually as if signed in the handwriting of and duly issued by the proper signing officers of such Borrower. Each Tranche 1 Revolving Lender is hereby authorized to issue such BAs endorsed in blank in such face amounts as may be determined by such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender; provided that the aggregate amount thereof is equal to the aggregate amount of BAs required to be accepted and purchased by such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender. No Tranche 1 Revolving Lender shall be liable for any damage, loss or other claim arising by reason of any loss or improper use of any such instrument except the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender or its officers, employees, agents or representatives. On request by a Borrower, a Tranche 1 Revolving Lender shall cancel all forms of BAs which have been pre-signed or pre-endorsed by or on behalf of such Borrower and which are held by such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender and have not yet been issued in accordance herewith. Each Tranche 1 Revolving Lender shall maintain a record with respect to BAs held by it in blank hereunder, voided by it for any reason, accepted and purchased by it hereunder, and cancelled at their respective maturities. Each Tranche 1 Revolving Lender agrees to provide such records to a Borrower at such Borrower’s expense upon request.

(f) Execution. Drafts drawn by a Borrower to be accepted as Bankers’ Acceptances shall be signed by a duly authorized officer or officers of such Borrower or by its attorneys including attorneys appointed pursuant to Section 2.3(e) above. Notwithstanding that any Person whose signature appears on any Bankers’ Acceptance may no longer be an authorized signatory for such Borrower at the time of issuance of a Bankers’ Acceptance, that signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes as if the authority had remained in force at the time of issuance and any Bankers’ Acceptance so signed shall be binding on such Borrower.

(g) Issuance. The Administrative Agent, promptly following receipt of a notice of borrowing, continuation or conversion by way of Bankers’ Acceptances, shall advise the applicable Tranche 1 Revolving Lenders of the notice and shall advise each such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender of the face amount of Bankers’ Acceptances to be accepted by it and the applicable Contract Period (which shall be identical for all Revolving Lenders). The aggregate face amount of Bankers’ Acceptances to be accepted by a Tranche 1 Revolving Lender shall be determined by the Administrative Agent by reference to such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the issue of Bankers’ Acceptances, except that, if the face amount of a Bankers’ Acceptance which would otherwise be accepted by a Tranche 1 Revolving Lender would not be C$100,000, or a whole multiple thereof, the face amount shall be increased or reduced by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion to C$100,000, or the nearest whole multiple of that amount, as appropriate; provided that after such issuance, no Tranche 1 Revolving Lender shall have outstanding Revolving Extensions of Credit in excess of its Tranche 1 Revolving Commitment.

(h) Waiver of Presentment and Other Conditions. Each Borrower waives presentment for payment and any other defense to payment of any amounts due to a Revolving Lender in respect of a Bankers’ Acceptance accepted and purchased by it pursuant to this Agreement which might exist solely by reason of the Bankers’ Acceptance being held, at the maturity thereof, by such Revolving Lender in its own right and each Borrower agrees not to claim any days of grace if such Revolving Lender as holder sues such Borrower on the Bankers’ Acceptance for payment of the amount payable by such Borrower thereunder. On the specified maturity date of a BA, or the date of any prepayment thereof in accordance with this Agreement, if earlier, the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Revolving Lender that has accepted such BA the full face amount of such BA (or shall make provision for payment by way of conversion or continuation in accordance with Sections 2.11(c) or (d)) in full and absolute satisfaction of its obligations with respect to such BA, and after such payment, such Borrower shall have no further liability in respect of such BA (except to the extent that any such payment is rescinded or reclaimed by operation of law or otherwise) and such Revolving Lender shall be entitled to all benefits of, and will make and otherwise be responsible for all payments due to the redeeming holder or any third parties under, such BA.

(i) BA Equivalent Loans by Non-BA Lenders. Whenever a Borrower requests a borrowing by way of Bankers’ Acceptances, each Non-BA Lender shall, in lieu of accepting a Bankers’ Acceptance, make a BA Equivalent Loan in an amount equal to such Non-BA Lender’s Revolving Percentage of such borrowing. On the relevant Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall credit an account as directed by such Borrower with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

(j) Terms Applicable to BA Equivalent Loans. As set out in the definition of “Bankers’ Acceptances”, that term includes Discount Notes and all terms of this Agreement applicable to Bankers’ Acceptances (including the provisions of Section 2.3(e) relating to their execution by the Revolving Lenders under power of attorney) shall apply equally to Discount Notes evidencing BA Equivalent Loans with such changes as may in the context be necessary. For greater certainty:

(i) the term of a Discount Note shall be the same as the Contract Period for Bankers’ Acceptances accepted and purchased on the same Borrowing Date in respect of the same borrowing;

(ii) an acceptance fee will be payable in respect of a Discount Note and shall be calculated at the same rate and in the same manner as the Acceptance Fee in respect of a Bankers’ Acceptance; and

(iii) the Discount Rate applicable to a Discount Note shall be the Discount Rate applicable to Bankers’ Acceptances accepted by a Revolving Lender that is not a Schedule I Lender in accordance with the definition of “Discount Rate” on the same Borrowing Date or date of continuation or conversion, as the case may be, in respect of the same borrowing for the relevant Contract Period.

Each Non-BA Lender may agree, in lieu of receiving any Discount Notes, that such Discount Notes may be uncertificated and the applicable BA Equivalent Loan shall be evidenced by a loan account, which such Non-BA Lender shall maintain in its name, and in such event such loan account shall be entitled to all the benefits of Discount Notes in respect of BA Equivalent Loans.

(k) Depository Bills and Notes Act. At the option of the applicable Borrower and any Revolving Lender, Bankers’ Acceptances under this Agreement to be accepted by such Revolving Lender may be issued in the form of depository bills for deposit with The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited pursuant to the Depository Bills and Notes Act (Canada). All depository bills so issued shall be governed by the provisions of this Section 2.3.

2.4 Circumstances Making Bankers’ Acceptances Unavailable.

(a) If the Administrative Agent determines in good faith, which determination shall constitute prima facie evidence thereof, and notifies the Parent Borrower that, by reason of circumstances affecting the money market, there is no market for Bankers’ Acceptances, then:

(i) the right of the Borrowers to request a borrowing by way of Bankers’ Acceptance shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent determines that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and the Administrative Agent so notifies the Parent Borrower; and

(ii) any notice relating to a borrowing by way of Bankers’ Acceptance which is outstanding at such time shall be deemed to be a notice requesting a borrowing by way of Canadian Prime Rate Loans (all as if it were a notice given pursuant to Section 2.2).

(b) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Revolving Lenders of the suspension in accordance with Section 2.4(a) of the Borrowers’ right to request a borrowing by way of Bankers’ Acceptance and of the termination of such suspension.

2.5 Swingline Commitment.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, from time to time during the Revolving Commitment Period, each Swingline Lender severally agrees, in reliance on the agreements of the other Tranche 1 Revolving Lenders set forth in Section 2.6, to make a portion of the credit otherwise available to the Borrowers under the Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments by (i) making swing line loans (such loans, “US Swingline Loans”) to the Non-Canadian Borrowers in US Dollars and (ii) making swing line loans (such loans, “Canadian Swingline Loans”; and, together with the US Swingline Loans, the “Swingline Loans”) to the Canadian Borrower and any Canadian Additional Borrower in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars; provided that the Swingline Lenders shall not make any Swingline Loan available if, after giving effect thereto (i) the aggregate principal amount of such Swingline Lender’s Swingline Loans outstanding would exceed the Swingline Commitment then in effect for such Swingline Lender, (ii) such Swingline Lender’s Revolving Extensions of Credit (in its capacity as a Tranche 1 Lender) would exceed its Tranche 1 Revolving Commitment, (iii) such Swingline Lender’s Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed its Revolving Commitment, (iv) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Extensions of Credit of the Tranche 1 Lenders outstanding at such time would exceed the aggregate amount of Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments in effect at such time or (v) the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars would exceed the Canadian Dollar Equivalent of US$150,000,000. During the Revolving Commitment Period, the Borrowers may use the Swingline Commitment by borrowing, repaying and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan, in the case of a US Swingline Loan, a US Base Rate Loan, in the case of a Canadian Swingline Loan denominated in US Dollars, or a Canadian Prime Rate Loan, in the case of a Canadian Swingline Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars.

(b) Each Borrower shall repay its outstanding Swingline Loans on such terms as it may agree with the relevant Swingline Lenders; provided that in no event shall such repayment occur later than the earliest of (x) the date that is ten Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made, (y) the Termination Date and (z) the date on which a Change of Control shall occur.

(c) Independent Swingline Lender Obligations. The failure of any Swingline Lender to make its ratable portion of a Swingline Loan shall not relieve any other Swingline Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its ratable portion of such Swingline Loan on the date of such Swingline Loan, but no Swingline Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Swingline Lender to make the ratable portion of a Swingline Loan to be made by such other Swingline Lender on the date of any Swingline Loan.

2.6 Procedures for Swingline Borrowing and Reporting; Refunding of Swingline Loans.

(a) (i) Whenever a Non-Canadian Borrower desires that the Swingline Lenders make US Swingline Loans, it shall give the Swingline Lenders and the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by each Swingline Lender no later than 12:00 P.M. on the proposed Borrowing Date), specifying (A) the amount to be borrowed and (B) the requested Borrowing Date (which shall be a Business Day during the Revolving Commitment Period). Whenever the Canadian Borrower or any Canadian Additional Borrower desires that the Swingline Lenders make Canadian Swingline Loans, it shall give the Swingline Lenders and the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by each Swingline Lender not later than 12:00 P.M. on the proposed Borrowing Date), specifying (A) whether such Loan shall be denominated in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars, (B) the amount to be borrowed and (C) the requested Borrowing Date (which shall be a Business Day during the Revolving Commitment Period). Each borrowing under any Swingline Commitment shall be in an amount equal to US$1,000,000 or C$1,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof. Not later than 2:00 P.M., on the Borrowing Date specified in a notice in respect of any Swingline Loan, each relevant Swingline Lender shall make its ratable portion of the requested Swingline Loan (such ratable portion to be calculated based upon such Swingline Lender’s Swingline Commitment to the total Swingline Commitments of all of the Swingline Lenders) available to the relevant Borrower, in the manner and on such terms as may be agreed by such Swingline Lender and such Borrower.

(ii) Alternatively, the Parent Borrower or Canadian Borrower may establish or designate, by agreement with each relevant Swingline Lender, at its Lending Office, accounts for the Canadian Borrower (one in Canadian Dollars and one in US Dollars) or the Parent Borrower (in US Dollars), each of which is referred to as a “Swingline Account”. The Swingline Accounts shall record the day to day banking business of the Canadian Borrower or the Parent Borrower with such Swingline Lender (other than under this Agreement). If, at the end of any Business Day, the balance in any Swingline Account is a debit, then to the extent there is sufficient availability under the Swingline Commitment and subject to the conditions in Section 2.5(a), such debit position shall be deemed to be recorded as a Swingline Loan by way of (i) ABR Loan, in the case of a debit position for the Parent Borrower denominated in US Dollars, (ii) US Base Rate Loan, in the case of a debit position for the Canadian Borrower denominated in US Dollars or (iii) Canadian Prime Rate Loan, in the case of a debit position for the Canadian Borrower denominated in Canadian Dollars. The accounts and records of each Swingline Lender shall constitute, in the absence of manifest error, prima facie evidence of outstanding Swingline Loans and Swingline Account balances from time to time, the Borrowing Dates such Swingline Loans were made and all amounts that the Canadian Borrower or Parent Borrower has paid from time to time on account of such Obligations.

(iii) Each Swingline Lender and the relevant Borrower shall be solely responsible for monitoring the outstanding balance of all Swingline Accounts and Swingline Loans made by such Swingline Lender from time to time. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for monitoring such balances or determining compliance with the conditions in Section 2.5(a).

(iv) Each Swingline Lender to each Borrower shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent on the first Business Day of each month (or as may otherwise be requested by the Administrative Agent), the aggregate Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding as of the last Business Day of the preceding month; provided, that in the event the aggregate amount of the Revolving Extensions of Credit of the Tranche 1 Lenders outstanding at such time (other than Swingline Loans) equal or exceed the aggregate amount of Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments in effect at such time less the aggregate of all Swingline Commitments, such Swingline Lender shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent on a daily basis, or as may be otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, the aggregate Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding on each Business Day.

(b) A Borrower may, from time to time voluntarily prepay Swingline Loans on such terms as it may agree with the relevant Swingline Lender. At any time when a Swingline Loan is outstanding, at the written request of a Swingline Lender to the Administrative Agent, with a copy to the relevant Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall, on the date of such request, request (on behalf of such Borrower, which hereby irrevocably directs the Administrative Agent to act on its behalf) each Tranche 1 Revolving Lender to make a Tranche 1 Revolving Loan by way of an ABR Loan (in the case of US Swingline Loans), a US Base Rate Loan (in the case of Canadian Swingline Loans denominated in US Dollars) or a Canadian Prime Rate Loan (in the case of Canadian Swingline Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars), to such Borrower in an amount equal to such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender’s Tranche 1 Revolving Percentage of the principal amount of such outstanding Swingline Loan (the “Refunded Swingline Loan”) owing by such Borrower on the date such notice is given (regardless of whether such Refunded Swingline Loan complies with the minimum borrowing provisions of Section 2.2). Upon such request by the Administrative Agent for the refunding of the Swingline Loan, each applicable Tranche 1 Revolving Lender shall make the amount of its ABR Loan, US Base Rate Loan or Canadian Prime Rate Loan, as the case may be, available for value to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Swingline Lender at the relevant Funding Office of the Administrative Agent before 2:00 P.M. on the date of such request; provided, however, that if a Default or an Event of Default under Section 8(h) or 8(i) shall have occurred and be continuing, the Tranche 1 Revolving Lenders shall not make such Refunded Swingline Loans and the procedures of Section 2.6(c) shall apply.

(c) If, before the making of an ABR Loan, a US Base Rate Loan or a Canadian Prime Rate Loan under Section 2.6(b), a Default or an Event of Default under Section 8(h) or 8(i) shall have occurred and be continuing, each Tranche 1 Revolving Lender will, on the date such ABR Loan, US Base Rate Loan or Canadian Prime Rate Loan was to have been made, purchase from the Swingline Lenders an undivided participating interest in the Swingline Loan to be refunded in an amount (the “Swingline Participation Amount”) equal to its Tranche 1 Revolving Percentage of such Swingline Loan to be refunded, and each such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender will immediately transfer to the Administrative Agent, in funds for value, the amount of its participation.

(d) Whenever, at any time after any Swingline Lender has received from any Tranche 1 Revolving Lender such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender’s Swingline Participation Amount, such Swingline Lender receives any payment on account of the Swingline Loans, such Swingline Lender will distribute, through the Administrative Agent, to such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender its Tranche 1 Revolving Percentage of such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded and, in the case of principal and interest payments, to reflect such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender’s pro rata portion of such payment if such payment is not sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on all Swingline Loans then due); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by such Swingline Lender is required to be returned, such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender will return to such Swingline Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it by such Swingline Lender.

(e) Each Tranche 1 Revolving Lender’s obligation to make the Loans referred to in Section 2.6(b) and to purchase participating interests pursuant to Section 2.6(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender or the relevant Borrower may have against any Swingline Lender, such Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries; (iv) any breach of this Agreement by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Tranche 1 Revolving Lender; or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

2.7 Fees, etc.

(a) The Parent Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a facility fee (a “Facility Fee”) in US Dollars, which shall accrue at the Facility Fee Rate on the amount of the Revolving Commitments of such Lender, whether used or unused, during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the Termination Date (or earlier date of termination of the Revolving Commitments in their entirety); provided that if any Loans remain outstanding after such Termination Date (or such earlier date of termination), such Facility Fee shall be payable on the aggregate principal thereof for the period after the Termination Date (or such earlier date of termination) until such Loans are paid in full. Accrued Facility Fees shall be payable in arrears on the third Business Day after the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof.

(b) The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent the fees in the amounts and on the dates previously agreed to in writing by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in the applicable Fee Letter.

2.8 Termination or Reduction of Revolving Commitments. The Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and the other Borrowers) shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent to terminate the Revolving Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Revolving Commitments; provided that no such termination or reduction of Revolving Commitments shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed the Total Revolving Commitments as so terminated or reduced. Any such reduction shall be in a minimum amount equal to US$10,000,000 or a whole multiple of US$1,000,000 in excess thereof, and shall reduce permanently the Revolving Commitments then in effect. Each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be made ratably among the Classes in accordance with the percentage which the aggregate amount of Revolving Commitments of each Class then constitutes of the Total Revolving Commitments then in effect and modified by the Administrative Agent to account for rounding adjustments. Each reduction of the Revolving Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders within such Class in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments of such Class.

2.9 Optional Prepayments.

(a) Each of the Borrowers may at any time and from time to time prepay any Loans made to it, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon irrevocable notice delivered to the Administrative Agent, at least three Business Days prior thereto, which notice shall specify the date and amount of prepayment, whether the prepayment is made to Swingline Loans or Revolving Loans and whether the prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans, ABR Loans, US Base Rate Loans, EURIBOR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Bankers’ Acceptances; provided, that if a Eurodollar Loan or EURIBOR Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the relevant Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.19. Optional prepayments shall be applied as directed by the relevant Borrower.

(b) Upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans, US Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans and Swingline Loans) accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of US$10,000,000, €10,000,000 or C$10,000,000, as the case may be, or a whole multiple of US$1,000,000, €1,000,000 or C$1,000,000 in excess thereof. Bankers’ Acceptances may be prepaid prior to the maturity thereof, provided that the applicable Borrower shall pay the full face amount of such Bankers’ Acceptances to the Administrative Agent, which payment shall be made in full and absolute satisfaction of such Borrower’s reimbursement obligation in respect of such Bankers’ Acceptances.

2.10 Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) If, due to exchange rate fluctuations or for any reason whatsoever, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Extensions of Credit of the Tranche 1 Lenders outstanding shall, at any time, exceed 105% of the aggregate amount of the Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments in effect at such time, (the amount of such excess, an “Excess Amount”), then within three Business Days of written notice from the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall first, prepay the Tranche 1 Revolving Loans and/or Swingline Loans in an amount so as to, as nearly as possible, eliminate such Excess Amount; and second, if any Excess Amount shall remain after such prepayment, provide cash collateral or such other security on Cash Equivalents as the Administrative Agent may require in US Dollars, Euros or Canadian Dollars in an amount equal to the remaining Excess Amount, which collateral shall secure all Obligations outstanding and shall remain in the Administrative Agent’s possession until such Excess Amount is eliminated whereupon the collateral shall be released by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, including any provision contemplating a continuation or conversion, whenever an Excess Amount exists, (A) upon the last day of the Contract Period of any Bankers’ Acceptance, the relevant Borrower shall repay the Bankers’ Acceptance, or (B) upon the last day of the Interest Period in respect of a Eurodollar Loan or EURIBOR Loan that is a Revolving Loan, the relevant Borrower shall repay the Eurodollar Loan or EURIBOR Loan, as applicable, in each case to the extent necessary to cover the Excess Amount and any repayments under clauses (A) and (B) shall be applied in reduction of the Excess Amount.

(b) Each prepayment of the Loans under Section 2.10 (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans, US Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans and Swingline Loans) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.10 and subject to Section 3.5 with respect to Letters of Credit, if at any time any prepayment of the Loans pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 2.10 would result, after giving effect to the procedures set forth in this Agreement, in a Borrower being required to indemnify for breakage costs under Section 2.19 as a result of Eurodollar Loans or EURIBOR Loans being prepaid other than on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, then, such Borrower may, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in its sole discretion, initially deposit a portion (up to 100%) of the amounts that otherwise would have been paid in respect of such Eurodollar Loans or EURIBOR Loans with the Administrative Agent (which deposit must be equal in amount to the amount of such Eurodollar Loans or EURIBOR Loans not immediately prepaid) to be held as security for the obligations of such Borrower to make such prepayment pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, with such cash collateral to be directly applied upon the first occurrence thereafter of the last day of an Interest Period with respect to such Eurodollar Loans or EURIBOR Loans (or such earlier date or dates as shall be requested by such Borrower); provided that such unpaid Eurodollar Loans or EURIBOR Loans shall continue to bear interest in accordance with Section 2.11 until such unpaid Eurodollar Loans or EURIBOR Loans or the related portion of such Eurodollar Loans or such EURIBOR Loans, as the case may be, have or has been prepaid.

2.11 Conversion and Continuation Options.

(a) The Borrowers may elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans (other than Swingline Loans) or US Base Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans) to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor); provided that no ABR Loan or US Base Rate Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit any such conversion (with notice of such determination to be delivered to the relevant Borrower as soon as practicable). The Borrowers may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to ABR Loans and the Canadian Borrower or any Additional Canadian Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to US Base Rate Loans, in each case by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election; provided that, in each case, any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

(b) Any Eurodollar Loan or EURIBOR Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the relevant Borrower giving irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1, of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans, provided that no Eurodollar Loan or EURIBOR Loan may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit any such continuation (with notice of such determination to be delivered to the relevant Borrower as soon as practicable), and provided, further, that (i) if the relevant Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph such Eurodollar Loans or EURIBOR Loans shall be automatically continued as such with an Interest Period of one month on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period, but only to the extent that such continuation may then be made in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1, or (ii) if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding provisos such Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans, in the case of Eurodollar Loans to the Non-Canadian Borrowers, or US Base Rate Loans, in the case of Eurodollar Loans to the Canadian Borrower or any Additional Canadian Borrower, and such EURIBOR Loans shall be automatically converted to Foreign Base Rate Loans, in each case on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

(c) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrowers may elect from time to time to convert Canadian Prime Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans) into Bankers’ Acceptances or Bankers’ Acceptances into Canadian Prime Rate Loans upon giving to the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice, provided that:

(i) no Canadian Prime Rate Loan may be converted into a Bankers’ Acceptance when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit any such conversion;

(ii) each conversion to Bankers’ Acceptances or to Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall be for a minimum aggregate amount and whole multiples in excess thereof as are specified in Section 2.3;

(iii) Bankers’ Acceptances may be converted only on the maturity date of such Bankers’ Acceptances; and

(iv) if less than all Bankers’ Acceptances are converted, after such conversion not less than C$10,000,000 shall remain as Bankers’ Acceptances.

(d) At or before 10:00 A.M. two Business Days before the maturity date of any Bankers’ Acceptances, the relevant Borrower shall give to the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice which notice shall specify either that such Borrower intends to repay the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances on the maturity date or that such Borrower intends to continue to issue Bankers’ Acceptances on the maturity date to provide for the payment of the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances. Subject to Section 2.3(a), if the relevant Borrower fails to provide such notice to the Administrative Agent, such Borrower shall be deemed to have notified the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders of its intention to continue to issue Bankers’ Acceptances with a Contract Period of one month to provide for the payment of the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances. If (i) pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement, Bankers’ Acceptances may not be issued as contemplated in the preceding sentence to provide for the payment of maturing Bankers’ Acceptances, (ii) the relevant Borrower fails to repay the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances, or (iii) a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on such maturity date and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit any issuance of new Bankers’ Acceptances to provide for the payment of maturing Bankers’ Acceptances, then such Borrower’s obligations in respect of the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances shall be deemed to have been converted on the maturity date thereof into a Canadian Prime Rate Loan in an amount equal to the face amount of the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances.

(e) Without limitation of this Section, no Loans denominated in US$ may be converted into Loans denominated in C$ or Euros, no Loans denominated in C$ may be converted into Loans denominated in US$ or Euros and no Loans denominated in Euros may be converted into Loans denominated in US$ or C$. For the avoidance of doubt, Revolving Loans to the Borrowers denominated in US$, C$ or Euros must be repaid in such currency, but may be reborrowed in either US$, C$ or Euros.

(f) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the relevant Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election, in each case within the notice period and in the form that would be required under Section 2.2, as the case may be, if such Borrower were requesting a borrowing of Loans of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election.

(g) For the avoidance of doubt, the conversion or continuation of Loans as herein provided shall not be deemed to constitute a repayment of existing Loans hereunder or the making of new Loans hereunder.

2.12 Limitations on Interest Periods and Contract Periods. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurodollar Loans and EURIBOR Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that no more than an aggregate amount of ten different Contract Periods in respect of BA issuances and Interest Periods in respect of Eurodollar Loans or EURIBOR Loans shall be outstanding at any one time to the Borrowers.

2.13 Interest Rates and Payment Dates.

(a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate determined for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Each EURIBOR Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the EURIBOR Rate determined for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin.

(d) Each ABR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the ABR plus the Applicable Margin.

(e) Each Canadian Prime Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(f) Upon acceptance of a Bankers’ Acceptance by a Revolving Lender, the relevant Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Revolving Lender a fee (the “Acceptance Fee”) calculated on the face amount of the Bankers’ Acceptance at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin on the basis of the number of days in the Contract Period for such Bankers’ Acceptance. Any adjustment to the Acceptance Fee (including any adjustment as necessary to reflect the operation of paragraph (f) of this Section) shall be computed based on the number of days remaining in the Contract Period of such Bankers’ Acceptances from and including the effective date of any change in the Applicable Margin. Any increase in such Acceptance Fee shall be paid by the relevant Borrower to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Revolving Lenders on the last day of the Contract Period of the relevant Bankers’ Acceptance. Any decrease in such Acceptance Fee shall be paid by each Revolving Lender to the relevant Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, on the last day of the Contract Period of the relevant Bankers’ Acceptance.

(g) (i) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (A) in the case of any Eurodollar Loans, or EURIBOR Loans, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2%, (B) in the case of ABR Loans and Reimbursement Obligations of Non-Canadian Borrowers denominated in US Dollars, the rate applicable to ABR Loans plus 2%, (C) in the case of any US Base Rate Loans and Reimbursement Obligations of the Canadian Borrower or any Canadian Additional Borrower denominated in US Dollars, the rate applicable to US Base Rate Loans plus 2%, (D) in the case of Canadian Prime Rate Loans, any Bankers’ Acceptances and Reimbursement Obligations denominated in Canadian Dollars, the rate applicable to Canadian Prime Rate Loans plus 2%, or (E) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations denominated in Euros, the rate applicable to Foreign Base Rate Loans plus 2%; and (ii) if all or a portion of any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or any Facility Fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to ABR Loans if such amount is denominated in US Dollars and owed by any Non-Canadian Borrower, Canadian Prime Rate Loans if such amount is denominated in Canadian Dollars, US Base Rate Loans if such amount is denominated in US Dollars and owed by the Canadian Borrower or any Canadian Additional Borrower or Foreign Base Rate Loans if such amount is denominated in Euros, in each case, plus 2% (or, in the case of any such other amounts, the rate then applicable to ABR Loans (if such amount is owed in US Dollars by a Non-Canadian Borrower), US Base Rate Loans (if such amount is owed in US Dollars by the Canadian Borrower or any Canadian Additional Borrower), Canadian Prime Rate Loans (if such amount is owed in Canadian Dollars) or Foreign Base Rate Loans (if such amount is owed in Euros), in each case, plus 2%), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment).

(h) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date (except with respect to Acceptance Fees upon acceptance of Bankers’ Acceptances, as to which paragraph (f) of this Section shall apply until the end of the respective Contract Periods therefor), provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (g) of this Section shall be payable from time to time on demand. Interest in respect of Loans and Reimbursement Obligations that are denominated in US Dollars (and all other amounts denominated in US Dollars) shall be payable in US Dollars, interest in respect of Loans and Reimbursement Obligations that are denominated in Euros (and all other amounts denominated in Euros) shall be payable in Euros and interest in respect of Loans or Reimbursement Obligations that are denominated in Canadian Dollars (and all other amounts denominated in Canadian Dollars) shall be payable in Canadian Dollars.

(i) (i) If any provision of this Agreement would obligate any Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Revolving Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by such Lender of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in a receipt by such Revolving Lender of interest at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, as follows:

(x) first, by reducing the amount or rates of interest required to be paid under this Section; and

(y) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts which would constitute interest for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).

(ii) If, notwithstanding the provisions of clause (i) of this paragraph (i), and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, any Revolving Lender shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by such clause, then the relevant Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in writing to such Revolving Lender, to obtain reimbursement from such Revolving Lender of an amount equal to such excess, and, pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by such Revolving Lender to such Borrower.

(iii) Any amount or rate of interest referred to in this paragraph (i) shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term of any Loan on the assumption that any charges, fees or expenses that fall within the meaning of “interest” (as defined in the Criminal Code (Canada)) shall, if they relate to a specific period of time, be prorated over that period of time and otherwise be prorated over the period from the Closing Date to the Termination Date and, in the event of dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive for the purposes of such determination absent manifest error.

2.14 Computation of Interest and Fees.

(a) (i) Interest on Loans the interest of which is not calculated on the basis of the Prime Rate or the reference rate of the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, (ii) Facility Fees and fees payable pursuant to Section 3.3 and interest on ABR Loans, US Base Rate Loans and Canadian Prime Rate Loans the interest of which is calculated based on the Prime Rate or such reference rate shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366; in the case of a leap year) day year for the actual days elapsed and (iii) Acceptance Fees and interest calculated on the basis of the CDOR Rate shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366; in the case of a leap year) day year for the actual days elapsed. All interest on Loans shall be calculated on a daily basis on the principal amount thereof remaining unpaid. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the relevant Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate, EURIBOR Rate or the Discount Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR, the US Base Rate, or the Canadian Prime Rate shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the relevant Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall, in the absence of manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence of the same. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of a Borrower, deliver to such Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate applicable to it pursuant hereto.

(c) For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), in any case in which an interest rate is stated in this Agreement to be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days or any other period of time that is less than a calendar year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate determined pursuant to such calculation is equivalent is the rate so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year for which the calculation is made and divided by either 360 or such other period of time, as the case may be. In addition, the principle of deemed investment of interest does not apply to any interest calculations under this Agreement and the rates of interest stipulated in this Agreement are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.

2.15 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period:

(a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence thereof) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate or the EURIBOR Rate for such Interest Period, or

(b) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required Lenders, each acting reasonably and in good faith, that the Eurodollar Rate or the EURIBOR Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as certified by such Lenders, such certification constituting, in the absence of manifest error, prima facie evidence thereof) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period,

the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the relevant Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (x) (i) any Eurodollar Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans (in the case of any such Loans to be made to a Non-Canadian Borrower) or US Base Rate Loans (in the case of any such Loans to be made to the Canadian Borrower or any Canadian Additional Borrower) and (ii) any EURIBOR Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Foreign Base Rate Loans, (y) (i) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans (in the case of any such loans to be made to a Non-Canadian Borrower) or US Base Rate Loans (in the case of any such loans to be made to the Canadian Borrower or any Canadian Additional Borrower) and (ii) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to EURIBOR Loans shall be continued as Foreign Base Rate Loans and (z) (i) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, to ABR Loans (in the case of any such loans to be made to a Non-Canadian Borrower) or US Base Rate Loans (in the case of any such loans to be made to the Canadian Borrower or any Canadian Additional Borrower) and (ii) any outstanding EURIBOR Loans shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, to Foreign Base Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans or EURIBOR Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the relevant Borrower have the right to convert Loans to Eurodollar Loans or EURIBOR Loans.

2.16 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.

(a) Each borrowing by a Borrower from the Tranche 1 Revolving Lenders hereunder, each payment by a Borrower on account of any Facility Fee and any Acceptance Fee payable in respect of the Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments and any reduction of the Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments shall be made pro rata according to the Tranche 1 Revolving Percentages of the Tranche 1 Revolving Lenders. Each borrowing by a Borrower from the Tranche 2 Revolving Lenders hereunder, each payment by a Borrower on account of any Facility Fee payable in respect of the Tranche 2 Revolving Commitments and any reduction of the Tranche 2 Revolving Commitments shall be made pro rata according to the Tranche 2 Revolving Percentages of the Tranche 2 Revolving Lenders.

(b) Each payment (including each prepayment) by a Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the US Revolving Loans, Canadian Revolving Loans or Euro Revolving Loans, as the case may be, shall be made to the relevant Revolving Lenders on a pro rata basis according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the relevant Revolving Loans then held by the applicable Revolving Lenders.

(c) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrowers hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 2:00 P.M., on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the relevant Lenders, at the relevant Funding Office, in US Dollars (with respect to Obligations denominated in US Dollars), Euros (with respect to Obligations denominated in Euros) or Canadian Dollars (with respect to Obligations denominated in Canadian Dollars), as the case may be, and in immediately available funds; provided, that if any event referred to in Section 8(h) or 8(i) shall occur or an acceleration of the maturity of the Loans pursuant to Section 8 shall occur, all Obligations denominated in Euros or Canadian Dollars shall be converted to US Dollars based on the then US Dollar Equivalent thereof (except for then undrawn and unexpired amounts of the outstanding Letters of Credit and except that any Bankers’ Acceptance shall only be converted to US Dollars at the end of the Contract Period therefor). Receipt by the Administrative Agent from a Borrower of funds pursuant to this Agreement, as principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be deemed to be receipt of such funds by the relevant Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the relevant Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurodollar Loans or the EURIBOR Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan or a EURIBOR Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon (i) in the case of any such amount in US Dollars, at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (x) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate and (y) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available or (ii) in the case of any such amount in Euros or Canadian Dollars, at a rate per annum determined by the Administrative Agent (such determination to be conclusive and binding on such Lender) in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s cost of funding the amount of such payment, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans, US Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as the case may be, on demand, from the relevant Borrower. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligations to fulfill its Revolving Commitments in accordance with the provisions hereof or to prejudice any rights which a Borrower has against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by a Borrower prior to the date of any payment due to be made by such Borrower hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to relevant Administrative Agent by the relevant Borrower within three Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon (i) in the case of any such amount in US Dollars, at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (x) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate and (y) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of any such amount in Euros or Canadian Dollars, at a rate per annum determined by the Administrative Agent (such determination to be conclusive and binding on such Lender) in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s cost of funding the amount of such payment. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against a Borrower.

2.17 Requirements of Law.

(a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority, in each case made or given subsequent to the date hereof:

(i) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender in connection with this Agreement that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate, the EURIBOR Rate, the Discount Rate or any other rate of interest hereunder;

(ii) shall subject the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (ii) through (vi) of the definition of Excluded Taxes or (C) Taxes imposed on net income) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves or other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition (other than a Tax of any kind) in respect of any credit made available by such Lender hereunder or any other condition (other than a Tax of any kind) with respect to this Agreement;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (or, in the case of (ii), the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or such Lender), by an amount that such Lender (or, in the case of (ii), the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender) reasonably deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Loans or EURIBOR Loans (or, in the case of (ii), any Loan) or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or purchasing or accepting Bankers’ Acceptances, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, (A) such Lender (or, in the case of (ii), the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender) shall provide to the relevant Borrower a photocopy of the applicable law, rule, guideline, regulation, treaty or official directive and a written notice of such Lender (or, in the case of (ii), the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender) setting forth any additional amounts such Lender is entitled to claim (the “Additional Compensation”) and the basis of calculation therefor, which shall, in the absence of manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence of such Additional Compensation, and (B) such Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender (or, in the case of (ii), the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender), within 30 Business Days of the receipt from such Lender (or, in the case of (ii), the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender) of the written notice herein referred to, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender (or, in the case of (ii), the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender) for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.

(b) If any Lender shall have reasonably determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority, in each case made subsequent to the date hereof or, if later, the date such Lender became a Lender, shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender would have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, within 30 Business Days after submission by such Lender to the relevant Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor, accompanied by a photocopy or an excerpt of the applicable direction, requirement or guidelines and a written notice of such Lender setting forth the reduction rate of return and the basis of calculation of any compensating amount, such Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or by United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, and (ii) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented.

(d) A written notice as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender to the relevant Borrower (with a copy to relevant Administrative Agent) shall, in the absence of manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence of such additional amount. The obligations of each Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.18 Taxes.

(a) All payments made by any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender on account of any obligation under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes except to the extent such deduction or withholding is required by law. If the applicable withholding agent is required to deduct or withhold any Tax from any such payments then, (i) in the case of any Indemnified Taxes, the amounts so payable by such Loan Party to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary such that the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender shall receive (after deduction or withholding of all Indemnified Taxes, including any Indemnified Taxes payable as a result of additional amounts paid by the relevant Loan Party pursuant to this Section 2.18) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in the relevant Loan Document had no such deduction or withholding been made, and (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall deduct or withhold such Taxes and shall remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with any Requirement of Law.

(b) Whenever any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by any Loan Party pursuant to Section 2.18(a) or (c), as promptly as practical thereafter such Loan Party shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of the relevant Issuing Lender or Lender, as the case may be, a copy of an original official receipt received by such Loan Party showing payment thereof.

(c) The applicable Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(d) The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and each Lender for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes that (i) the Loan Parties failed to pay as and when required pursuant to Section 2.18(a) or (c) or (ii) in the case of such Taxes other than United States and Canadian Taxes, are paid by the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender (including, in each case, in respect of amounts paid or payable under this Section 2.18(d) in respect of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes) and, in each case, any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.18(d) shall be paid within 30 days after the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender delivers to the applicable Loan Party a certificate stating the amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes so paid or payable by such Person and describing the basis for the indemnification claim. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. Such Issuing Lender or Lender shall also deliver a copy of such certificate to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Each Lender and each Issuing Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 30 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes attributable to such Lender or such Issuing Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.6(b) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender or such Issuing Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender or Issuing Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or Issuing Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender or Issuing Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f) (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document by any Borrower shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments by such Borrower to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law, published administrative statements of the relevant Governmental Authority or reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in paragraphs (ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the applicable Borrower is a US Person:

(A) the Administrative Agent and any Lender that is a US Person shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party to any Loan Document (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Parent Borrower or, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 (or applicable successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from US federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a party to any Loan Document (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or, in either case, an applicable successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, US federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or, in either case, an applicable successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, US federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI (or applicable successor form);

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G (a “US Tax Compliance Certificate”) to the effect that (A) such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the applicable Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (B) the interest payments in question are not effectively connected with a US trade or business conducted by such Foreign Lender and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or, in either case, an applicable successor form); or

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner of the applicable Loan (for example, where the Foreign Lender is a partnership or participating Lender granting a typical participation), executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY (or applicable successor form), accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, US Tax Compliance Certificate, Form W-9 (or other successor forms), and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more beneficial owners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a US Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such beneficial owner;

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a party to any Loan Document (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in US federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to US federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(iii) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(iv) For purposes of this Section 2.18(f), the term “Lender” shall include any Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent.

(g) If a Loan Party makes a payment of any additional amounts to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender under Section 2.17 or 2.18 and the Administrative Agent or any such Issuing Lender or Lender shall become aware that it is entitled to receive a refund or to be granted a credit or relief or remission for or in respect of the amounts so paid by such Loan Party, it shall promptly notify such Loan Party of the availability of such refund, credit, relief or remission and shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the receipt of a request by such Loan Party, apply for such refund, credit, relief or remission. If the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, as applicable, reasonably determines that it has received a refund or been granted a credit, relief or remission as a result of any additional amounts paid by any Loan Party pursuant to Section 2.17 or 2.18, and, in such recipient’s opinion such refund amount is both reasonably identifiable and quantifiable by it, it shall pay to such Loan Party an amount equal to such refund, credit, relief or remission (but only to the extent of additional amounts paid under Section 2.17 or this Section 2.18 giving rise to such refund, credit, relief or remission and only to the extent that the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender or Lender, as the case may be, determines acting reasonably and in good faith that it may do so without prejudice to its right, as against the relevant Governmental Authority, to retain such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, as applicable, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund, credit, relief or remission). Such Loan Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender, as applicable, shall repay to such Person the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender, as applicable, is required to repay such refund, credit, relief or remission to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender, as applicable, be required to pay any amount to any Loan Party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender, as applicable, in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Person would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender, as applicable, to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other Person.

(h) Upon the request, and at the expense, of the applicable Loan Party, the Administrative Agent and each Lender or Issuing Lender to which such Loan Party is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to Section 2.17 or this 2.18, and any Participant in respect of whose participation such payment is required, shall afford such Loan Party the opportunity to participate, as may reasonably be requested by such Loan Party, with the Administrative Agent or such Lender, Issuing Lender or Participant in contesting the imposition of any cost or Tax giving rise to such payment; provided that (i) the Administrative Agent or such Lender, Issuing Lender or Participant shall not be required to afford such Loan Party the opportunity to so participate unless such Loan Party shall have paid such additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.17 or 2.18 and (ii) such Loan Party shall reimburse the Administrative Agent or such Lender, Issuing Lender or Participant for its reasonable legal and accountants’ fees and disbursements incurred in contesting the imposition of such cost or Tax; provided, further, that notwithstanding the foregoing neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender, Issuing Lender or Participant shall be required to afford a Loan Party the opportunity to participate in contesting the imposition of any Taxes, if in its sole discretion (exercised in good faith) it determines that to do so would have an adverse effect on it.

(i) If a Lender or Issuing Lender changes its applicable Lending Office (other than pursuant to Section 2.22) and the effect of such change, as of the date of such change, would be to cause the Loan Parties to become obligated to pay any additional amount under Section 2.17 or this Section 2.18, the Loan Parties shall not be obligated to pay any such additional amount, except to the extent that additional amounts were payable pursuant to Section 2.17 or this Section 2.18 to such Lender or Issuing Lender immediately prior to the designation of a new applicable Lending Office.

(j) The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(k) For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the date of this Agreement, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) this Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

2.19 Indemnity. Each Borrower agrees to indemnify each relevant Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by such Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans or EURIBOR Loans after such Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by such Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurodollar Loans or EURIBOR Loans after such Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans or EURIBOR Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurodollar market. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section (which certificate shall state the event by reason of which such amounts are payable) submitted to the relevant Borrower by any Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence thereof. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.20 Additional or Increased Commitments.

(a) The Parent Borrower may, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, elect to (i) request one or more term loans (each an “Incremental Term Loan” and, collectively, the “Incremental Term Loans”) or (ii) request additional or increased Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments and/or Tranche 2 Revolving Commitments hereunder (each such additional or increased commitment, an “Incremental Revolving Commitment” and, together with the Incremental Term Loans, the “Incremental Facilities”), in an aggregate amount not in excess of US$400,000,000. Any such Incremental Facility shall be in a minimum amount equal to US$10,000,000, or a whole multiple of US$1,000,000 in excess thereof. Each such notice shall specify the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which the Parent Borrower proposes that Incremental Facility shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than ten Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to Administrative Agent; provided, that any Lender offered or approached to provide all or a portion of any Incremental Facility may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide the same. Such Incremental Facility shall become effective as of such Increased Amount Date; provided, that (1) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such Incremental Facility and to the making of any loans pursuant thereto on such Increased Amount Date; (2) the representations and warranties other than the representation and warranty contained in Section 4.5 made by each Borrower herein shall be true and correct in all material respects, on and as of such Increased Amount Date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date; (3) any Incremental Facility may be offered either on a ratable basis to the Lenders or on a non pro-rata basis to one or more Lenders and/or to other lenders or entities reasonably acceptable to each of the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower; (4) the terms applicable to the Incremental Revolving Commitments shall be the same as those applicable to the relevant existing Revolving Commitments; (5) the terms of any Incremental Term Loan shall, taken as a whole, be substantially identical, or less favorable, to the lenders making such Incremental Term Loan than the terms applicable to Loans hereunder, except that (A) the maturity date of any Incremental Term Loan shall be no earlier than the Termination Date, (B) the interest rate margins and other economic terms, amortization schedule (not exceeding 1% per annum), prepayment terms, borrower and currency applicable to any Incremental Term Loan shall be determined by the Parent Borrower and the lenders thereunder and (C) the foregoing limitation upon the terms of any Incremental Term Loan shall not apply to covenants, amortization schedule or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Termination Date; (6) any New Lender shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; (7) any New Lender providing an Incremental Revolving Commitment shall be subject to approval of the Administrative Agent, the Parent Borrower, each relevant Issuing Lender and each relevant Swingline Lender, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; (8) such Incremental Facility shall be effected pursuant to one or more supplements to this Agreement executed and delivered by the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and one or more New Lenders or existing Lenders; and (9) the Parent Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any customary legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction, including any supplements or amendments to the US Guarantee Agreement and/or the Foreign Guarantee Agreement providing for such Incremental Facility and the extensions of credit thereunder to be guaranteed thereby.

(b) On any Increased Amount Date on which any Incremental Facility becomes effective, subject to the foregoing terms and conditions, each new lender with an additional loan or commitment under the Incremental Facility (each, a “New Lender”) shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to such loan or commitment and each Lender with an Incremental Revolving Commitment shall have its Revolving Commitment adjusted accordingly.

(c) Each supplement to this Agreement effected in accordance with Section 2.20(a) may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.20 (including to provide transition provisions to provide for any additional or increased Revolving Commitments to share ratably in the extensions of credit under the Revolving Commitments).

2.21 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the Revolving Commitments of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.7;

(b) the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Extensions of Credit of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 10.1); provided, that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby if such Defaulting Lender is an affected Lender;

(c) with respect to any Tranche 1 Revolving Lender becoming a Defaulting Lender, if any Swingline Exposure or L/C Exposure exists at the time such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) all or any part of the Swingline Exposure and L/C Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders having Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments in accordance with their respective Tranche 1 Revolving Percentages, but only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Extensions of Credit under such Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and L/C Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the relevant Borrowers shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Lenders only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure under such Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in the last paragraph of Section 8 for so long as such L/C Exposure is outstanding;

(iii) if a Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.3(a) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure during the period such L/C Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv) if the L/C Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders under the Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.7(a) and Section 3.3(a) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Tranche 1 Revolving Percentages; and

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lenders or any other Lender hereunder, all fees payable under Section 3.3(a) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Lenders until and to the extent that such L/C Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized;

(d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Swingline Lender shall be required to fund any Swingline Loan under the relevant Revolving Commitments and no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit thereunder, unless it is reasonably satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding L/C Exposure thereunder will be 100% covered by the relevant Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.21(c), and participating interests in any newly made Swingline Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders under the relevant Revolving Commitments in a manner consistent with Section 2.21(c) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein); and

(e) any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest or otherwise) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated account and, subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent in the following order of priority:

(i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder;

(ii) second, to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent;

(iii) third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Company, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender in respect of any Loans under this Agreement;

(iv) fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and

(v) fifth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction, provided that, with respect to this clause (v), if such payment is (x) a prepayment of the principal amount of any Loans which such Defaulting Lender has funded and (y) made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 are satisfied, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Revolving Percentage of the outstanding principal amount of Loans of each non-Defaulting Lender prior to being applied to the prepayment of the Loans of such Defaulting Lender.

In the event that the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, and, with respect to a Tranche 1 Revolving Lender that is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and L/C Exposure of the relevant Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Tranche 1 Revolving Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the relevant Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Tranche 1 Revolving Percentage or Tranche 2 Revolving Percentage, as the case may be.

2.22 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender and Issuing Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event or condition giving rise (or that would upon the passage of time give rise) to the operation of Section 2.17 or 2.18 with respect to such Lender or Issuing Lender, it will promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent and, if requested by the Borrowers, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to mitigate the effects of such condition or event, including by designating another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such efforts do not, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending offices to suffer an unreimbursed cost or a legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17 or 2.18.

2.23 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender (a) requests compensation under Section 2.17, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amounts to the Administrative Agent, or any Issuing Lender on account of any Lender or to any Lender under Section 2.18(a), or (b) provides an Exclusion Notice or becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Parent Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.6, provided that the Borrowers shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) such assignment does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such assignment, (iii) prior to any such assignment, the Lender being replaced shall have taken no action under Section 2.22 resulting in the elimination of the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.17 or 2.18(a), (iv) the assignee shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of assignment, (v) the Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.19 if any Eurodollar Loan or EURIBOR Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (vi) the assignee shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Swingline Lender, (vii) the assigning Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6, (viii) until such time as such assignment shall be consummated, the Borrowers shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.17 or 2.18(a), as the case may be, and (ix) any such assignment shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender.

2.24 Additional Borrowers; Borrower Termination.

(a) Upon at least ten Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent and the relevant Lenders, the Parent Borrower may designate any Qualified Subsidiary as an additional borrower (“Additional Borrower”), provided that on or prior to the effective date of such designation, the Administrative Agent shall have received (i) an Assumption Agreement to this Agreement executed by such Qualified Subsidiary, (ii) (x) if such Qualified Subsidiary is a Domestic Subsidiary, an assumption agreement to the US Guarantee Agreement executed by such Qualified Subsidiary (unless such Qualified Subsidiary is already a party to the US Guarantee Agreement), (y) if such Qualified Subsidiary is a Foreign Subsidiary organized under the laws of Canada or any jurisdiction in Canada, an assumption agreement to the Foreign Guarantee Agreement executed by such Qualified Subsidiary (unless such Qualified Subsidiary is already a party to the Foreign Guarantee Agreement) and (z) if such Qualified Subsidiary is a Foreign Subsidiary that is not organized under the laws of Canada or any jurisdiction in Canada, an assumption agreement to the Foreign Guarantee Agreement executed by such Qualified Subsidiary (unless such Qualified Subsidiary is already a party to the Foreign Guarantee Agreement) and any Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower organized under the laws of the jurisdiction under which such Qualified Subsidiary is organized (unless such Wholly-Owned Subsidiary is already a party to the Foreign Guarantee Agreement), (iii) a certificate of such Qualified Subsidiary and, as applicable, each such Foreign Non-Canadian Additional Borrower Subsidiary Guarantor, substantially in the form of Exhibit B, with appropriate insertions and attachments, (iv) a long form good standing certificate or equivalent thereof for such Qualified Subsidiary and, as applicable, each such Foreign Non-Canadian Additional Borrower Subsidiary Guarantor, from its jurisdiction of organization or formation (to the extent relevant in such jurisdiction), (v) an opinion, addressed to the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders and dated the date of designation, from counsel to such Qualified Subsidiary and, as applicable, each such Foreign Non-Canadian Additional Borrower Subsidiary Guarantor, which opinion shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (vi) such other documentation and/or certificates as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request (including, without limitation, documentation as any Lender may reasonably request, through the Administrative Agent, that is required in order to comply with any applicable “know your customer” or AML Legislation). Upon such delivery such Qualified Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be an Additional Borrower and a party to this Agreement.

(b) The Parent Borrower may terminate the status of the Subsidiary Borrower, the Canadian Borrower or any Additional Borrower as a Borrower under the Credit Agreement at such time as no Revolving Extensions of Credit shall be outstanding for the account of such Borrower and no interest, fees or any other amounts shall be due and unpaid by such Borrower, and such Borrower and the Parent Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a Borrower Termination Notice.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to contrary herein, following delivery of any Assumption Agreement with respect to any Additional Borrower that is a Foreign Subsidiary that is not organized under the laws of Canada or any jurisdiction in Canada, any Lender may, if such Lender reasonably determines that a credit extension to such Additional Borrower could reasonably be expected to result in materially adverse tax, regulatory or legal consequences to such Lender or would be illegal or impracticable under any applicable law or regulation, provide written notice of such determination to the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower within 10 Business Days of such delivery (“Exclusion Notice”) whereupon such Lender will not be required to make such credit extensions to such Additional Borrower. In the event that a Borrower delivers a notice of a borrowing under Section 2.2, such Lender agrees to provide its ratable share of the requested Loan to the Parent Borrower or another Additional Borrower for which such Lender has not issued an Exclusion Notice, in each case as set forth in such notice provided by such Borrower in accordance with Section 2.2.

SECTION 3. LETTERS OF CREDIT

3.1 L/C Commitment.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Tranche 1 Revolving Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), agrees to issue letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the account of the relevant Borrower on any Business Day before the fifth Business Day prior to the Termination Date in such form as may be approved from time to time by the relevant Issuing Lender; provided that such Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the L/C Obligations would exceed the L/C Commitment, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Extensions of Credit of the Tranche 1 Lenders outstanding at such time would exceed the aggregate amount of Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments in effect at such time, (iii) the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars would exceed the Canadian Dollar Equivalent of US$150,000,000 or (iv) the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit denominated in Euros would exceed the Euro Equivalent of US$200,000,000. Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated, at the relevant Borrower’s option, in US Dollars, Euros or Canadian Dollars and (ii) expire no later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance and (y) the date that is five Business Days prior to the latest Termination Date under the Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments, provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for the automatic renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (y) above).

(b) An Issuing Lender shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if such issuance would conflict with, or cause such Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law or contravene such Issuing Lender’s internal policies.

(c) On the date on which a Change of Control shall occur, the relevant Borrower shall, with respect to outstanding L/C Obligations, deposit in a non-interest bearing account opened by the Administrative Agent, an amount of cash equal to such outstanding L/C Obligations, which amount held in such account shall be held as collateral security for such Borrower’s Obligations with respect to the related Letters of Credit, and any remaining amounts in such account, after satisfaction of all Obligations in respect of such L/C Obligations, shall be returned to such Borrower.

3.2 Procedure for Issuance of Letter of Credit. A Borrower may from time to time request that the relevant Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to such Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified herein the relevant Application therefor, completed to the reasonable satisfaction of such Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as such Issuing Lender may reasonably request in accordance with its customary procedures. Upon receipt of any Application, the relevant Issuing Lender will process such Application and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall such Issuing Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than two Business Days after its receipt of the Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by such Issuing Lender and the applicable Borrower. Each Issuing Lender prior to its issuance of a Letter of Credit shall obtain confirmation from the Administrative Agent that after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the L/C Obligations would not exceed the L/C Commitment, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Extensions of Credit of the Tranche 1 Lenders outstanding at such time would not exceed the aggregate amount of Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments in effect at such time, (iii) the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars would not exceed the Canadian Dollar Equivalent of US$150,000,000 and (iv) the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit denominated in Euros would not exceed the Euro Equivalent of US$200,000,000. Such Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the applicable Borrower promptly following the issuance thereof. Each Issuing Lender shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent, which shall in turn promptly furnish to the Tranche 1 Revolving Lenders, notice of the issuance of each Letter of Credit (including the amount thereof). Upon request by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender shall report to the Administrative Agent the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding on any Business Day and such other information with respect to such Letters of Credit as may be requested.

3.3 Fees and Other Charges.

(a) Each Borrower will pay a fee on all outstanding Letters of Credit issued for its account at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Loans, shared ratably among the Tranche 1 Revolving Lenders and payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date after the issuance date and in US Dollars, Euros or Canadian Dollars based on the currency in which each such Letter of Credit is denominated. Such fee shall be calculated on the aggregate undrawn face amount of the outstanding Letters of Credit on a daily basis during each quarterly or other period for which payment is made. In addition, each Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee to be agreed upon with such Issuing Lender on the undrawn and unexpired amount of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender for it, payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date after the issuance date of such Letter of Credit.

(b) In addition to the foregoing fees, each Borrower shall pay or reimburse each Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by such Issuing Lender in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender for it.

3.4 L/C Participations.

(a) Each Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce the Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from each Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions set forth below, for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Tranche 1 Revolving Percentage in each Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit and the amount of each draft paid by such Issuing Lender thereunder. Each L/C Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which the relevant Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the relevant Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Lender upon demand at such Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Tranche 1 Revolving Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed.

(b) If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to the relevant Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit is paid to such Issuing Lender within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) (x) in the case of any such amount in US Dollars, at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (A) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate and (B) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for the period until such L/C Participant makes such amount immediately available or (y) in the case of any such amount in Euros or Canadian Dollars, at a rate per annum determined by the Administrative Agent (such determination to be conclusive and binding on such L/C Participant) in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s cost of funding the amount of such payment, for the period until such L/C Participant makes such amount immediately available to such Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360 (in the case of Euro-denominated or US Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit) or 365 (in the case of Canadian Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit). If any such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant pursuant to Section 3.4(a) is not made available to the relevant Issuing Lender by such L/C Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans (in the case of US Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit issued for the account of a Non-Canadian Borrower), US Base Rate Loans (in the case of US Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower or any Canadian Additional Borrower), Canadian Prime Rate Loans (in the case of Canadian Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit) or Foreign Base Rate Loans (in the case of Euro-denominated Letters of Credit). A certificate of the relevant Issuing Lender submitted to any L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(c) Whenever, at any time after the relevant Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(a), such Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from a Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by such Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, such Issuing Lender will distribute, through the Administrative Agent to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by such Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by such Issuing Lender, each such L/C Participant shall return to such Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by such Issuing Lender to it.

3.5 Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrowers. Each Borrower agrees to reimburse each Issuing Lender on the next Business Day after that on which such Issuing Lender notifies such Borrower of the date and amount of a draft presented under any Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower and paid by such Issuing Lender for the amount of (a) such draft so paid in the currency of such payment and (b) any non-Excluded Taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses reasonably incurred by such Issuing Lender in connection with such payment. Each such payment shall be made to such Issuing Lender at its address for notices referred to herein in US Dollars, Euros or Canadian Dollars, as the case may be, and in immediately available funds, provided that the Borrowers may request in accordance with Section 2.2 that such payment be financed with US Revolving Loans, Euro Revolving Loans or Canadian Revolving Loans, as applicable, in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting US Revolving Loans, Euro Revolving Loans or Canadian Revolving Loans. Interest shall be payable on any such amounts from the date on which the relevant draft is paid until payment in full (i) until the Business Day next succeeding the date of the relevant notice, (w) at the rate then applicable to ABR Loans in the case of US Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit issued for the account of a Non-Canadian Borrower, (x) at the rate then applicable to US Base Rate Loans in the case of US Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower or any Canadian Additional Borrower, (y) at the rate then applicable to Canadian Prime Rate Loans in the case of Canadian Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit and (z) at the rate then applicable to Foreign Base Rate Loans in the case of Euro-denominated Letters of Credit and (ii) thereafter, at the applicable rates set forth in Section 2.13(g).

3.6 Obligations Absolute. Each Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that such Borrower may have or have had against any Issuing Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person. Each Borrower also agrees with each Issuing Lender that each Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for, and such Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among such Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of such Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee. No Issuing Lender shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Issuing Lender shall be responsible to the relevant Borrower or Borrowers for errors or omissions arising from such Issuing Lender’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its issuance or administration of the payment or non-payment made under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender or the related drafts or documents; provided that, each Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by an Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in good faith in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct and in accordance with the standards of care (the “Standards of Care”) specified in the Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as published from time to time by the International Chamber of Commerce, shall be binding on such Borrower and shall not result in any liability of such Issuing Lender to such Borrower. It is agreed that nothing in this paragraph shall relieve any Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant of any liability resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender or L/C Participant.

3.7 Letter of Credit Payments. If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower of the date and amount thereof. The responsibility of an Issuing Lender to a Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are in conformity with such Letter of Credit and complying with the Standards of Care.

3.8 Applications. To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 3, the provisions of this Section 3 shall apply.

3.9 Existing Letters of Credit. The Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Lenders hereby acknowledge that Existing Letters of Credit are outstanding as of the Closing Date. It is hereby agreed among the Borrowers, the Issuing Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders that concurrently with the satisfaction of the requirements of Section 5.1 on the Closing Date, the Existing Letters of Credit shall irrevocably be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued hereunder and all the provisions of this Agreement shall apply to the Existing Letters of Credit as being Letters of Credit issued hereunder by the relevant Issuing Lenders, the whole without novation of all of the obligations of the Borrower to each relevant Issuing Lender in respect of said Existing Letters of Credit.

SECTION 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans and issue or participate in the Letters of Credit, each Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Lender (which representations and warranties are made as of the Closing Date (but only to the extent contemplated by Section 5.2(a)) and, as provided in Section 5.2, as of the date on which any extension of credit is made after the Closing Date) that:

4.1 Organization; Powers. Each of the Borrowers and each Material Subsidiary is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business in all material respects as now conducted and, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required.

4.3 Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the issuance of Letters of Credit, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof (a) do not require any Loan Party to obtain, complete or make any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other similar action by, any Governmental Authority, except (i) as set forth on Part A of Schedule 4.3 or (ii) such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, (b) will not violate in any material respect any applicable law or regulation or any order of any Governmental Authority by which it is bound and will not violate the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of any Borrower or any Material Subsidiary, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture listed on Part B of Schedule 4.3 and any other material indenture, material agreement or other material instrument binding upon the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or its assets, or, except as set forth on Part B of Schedule 4.3, give rise to a right thereunder to require any material payment to be made by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and (d) will not result in or require the creation, imposition or sharing of any Lien on any material asset of the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (including pursuant to the “equal and ratable” Lien requirements of any such indenture).

All such financial statements, including the notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved. As of the Closing Date, neither the Parent Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has any material Guarantee Obligations, contingent liabilities and liabilities for Taxes, or any material long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments, including any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction or other obligation in respect of derivatives, that are required under GAAP to be reflected and are not so reflected in the most recent (as of the date hereof) financial statements (including the notes thereto) referred to in this paragraph.

(b) Each of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, trade names, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property material to the business of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and the use thereof by the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries does not infringe upon the rights of any other Person, except for any such infringements or failures to own or be licensed that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

4.7 Litigation. No litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Parent Borrower, threatened by or against the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or against any of their respective properties or revenues (a) as of the Closing Date with respect to any of the Loan Documents and in which any Person asserts the invalidity or unenforceability of any Loan Document or that the Loan Documents violate or result in a default under any indenture, material agreement or other material instrument binding upon the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (b) that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(k) one or more judgments for the payment of money in an aggregate amount in excess of US$80,000,000 shall be rendered against any Borrower or any Material Subsidiary in respect of whose financial obligations relating to such judgments any Borrower or any Material Subsidiary has, by contract or otherwise, any liability, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of US$80,000,000, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, or any combination thereof and the same shall remain undischarged, unsatisfied and not covered by insurance for a period of 60 consecutive days during which execution shall not be effectively stayed, or any action shall be legally taken by the judgment creditor to attach or levy upon any material assets of the Parent Borrower or any Material Subsidiary to enforce any such judgment or judgments in an aggregate amount in excess of US$80,000,000;

Each Borrower shall execute such security documents with respect to amounts so held in respect of such L/C Obligations as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably require.

SECTION 9. THE AGENTS

9.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as, to the extent appropriate, the agent of such Lender under this Agreement and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.

9.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement by or through agents or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys in fact selected by it with reasonable care.

9.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (a) liable to any of the Lenders for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement (except to the extent that any of the foregoing result from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Borrower or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agents under or in connection with, this Agreement or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or for any failure of any Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrowers.

9.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, e-mail message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent in the relevant Register. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all of the Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all of the Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

9.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

9.6 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys in fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrowers and their affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent 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 analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrowers and their affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrowers that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys in fact or affiliates.

9.7 Indemnification. The Lenders severally agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), ratably according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 9.7, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Revolving Commitments, the Loans, this Agreement, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that result from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

9.8 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity.

9.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent upon 10 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrowers. If (i) the Administrative Agent shall resign as the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 8(h) or 8(i) with respect to a Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Parent Borrower (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) or (ii) if no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 10 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, such retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor agent, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 8(h) or 8(i) with respect to a Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Parent Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); then, in either case, the successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent becomes effective the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

9.10 Documentation Agents and Syndication Agents. Neither the Documentation Agents nor the Syndication Agents shall have any duties or responsibilities hereunder in their capacities as such.

10.1 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) This Agreement and the terms hereof may not be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1. The Required Lenders and the Borrowers may, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent may, from time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders hereunder or (b) waive, on such terms and conditions as may be specified in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (i) forgive the principal amount or extend the scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, reduce the stated rate of any interest or fee payable hereunder (except in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates (which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Required Lenders)) or extend the date of any scheduled payment thereof, or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Lender’s Revolving Commitment, in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; (ii) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this Section 10.1 without the written consent of such Lender; (iii) reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders (or, subject to the last sentence of this Section 10.1(a), the Lenders of any Class), consent to the assignment or transfer by a Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (except as contemplated by Section 7.3), release (x) any Borrower from its guarantee obligations under the US Guarantee Agreement or the Foreign Guarantee Agreement, as the case may be, or (y) all or substantially all of Subsidiary Guarantors from their obligations under the US Guarantee Agreement or the Foreign Guarantee Agreement, as the case may be, in each case without the written consent of each Lender of such Class, as applicable; (iv) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 9 without the written consent of the Administrative Agent; (v) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.5 or 2.6 without the written consent of each then Swingline Lender; (vi) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.21 without the written consent of each then Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender; or (vii) amend, modify or waive any relevant provision of Section 3 without the written consent of each then Issuing Lender.

In the case of any waiver, the Borrowers, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of Lenders holding Loans or Revolving Commitments of a particular Class (but not the Lenders holding Loans or Revolving Commitments of any other Class) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section 10.1 if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time.

(b) In connection with any proposed amendment, supplement, modification, waiver or termination (including any request pursuant to Section 2.1(c)) (a “Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of all Lenders or all affected Lenders, if the consent of the holders of more than 50% of the sum of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Total Revolving Commitments then in effect or, if the Revolving Commitments have been terminated, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit then outstanding to such Proposed Change is obtained, but the consent to such Proposed Change of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (including any Lender that has elected not to extend its Revolving Commitment in response to a request pursuant to Section 2.1(c)) (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in this Section 10.1(b) being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as the Lender that is acting as the Administrative Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, at any Borrower’s request, any assignee that is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (and that is not a Non-Consenting Lender) shall have the right, with the prior consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank (which consent (x) shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (y) in the case of any consent required by any Issuing Bank, shall be deemed to have been given in the event that such Issuing Bank fails to respond in writing to a request for consent within two Business Days of receipt thereof), to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lender, and such Non-Consenting Lender agrees that it shall, upon such Borrower’s request, sell and assign to such assignee, at no expense to such Non-Consenting Lender (including with respect to any processing and recordation fees that may be applicable pursuant to Section 10.6(e), which shall be paid by the assignee or the Parent Borrower), all the Revolving Commitments and Aggregate Exposure of such Non-Consenting Lender for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Revolving Loans (and funded participations in Swingline Loans and unreimbursed L/C Obligations) held by such Non-Consenting Lender and all accrued interest, fees and other amounts with respect thereto through the date of sale (including amounts under Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18 and 2.19), such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed Assignment and Assumption in accordance with Section 10.6(c) (which Assignment and Assumption need not be signed by such Non-Consenting Lender).

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (i) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder (including the refinancing thereof) and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Revolving Extensions of Credit and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (ii) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Borrower, may amend, modify or supplement any Loan Document without the consent of any Lender or the Required Lenders in order to correct, amend or cure any non-material ambiguity, inconsistency or defect or correct any typographical error or other manifest error in any Loan Document.

provided that any notice, request or demand to or upon the Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall not be effective until received; provided, further that notices, requests or demands to or upon the Lenders may be effected by electronic transmission, including, in the case of the Administrative Agent, by posting to the IntraLinks website (including customary e-mail notification of such posting) or otherwise.

10.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

10.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder, and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans and other extensions of credit hereunder.

10.5 Payment of Expenses. The Borrowers agree (a) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and each of its Affiliates for all their respective reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the syndication of the Revolving Commitments, the development, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and any other Loan Documents prepared in connection herewith (and any amendment, supplement or modification thereto and any other Loan Documents prepared in connection therewith), and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of one primary counsel to the Administrative Agent and each of its Affiliates, which counsel shall act on behalf of all Lenders (and if necessary or, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent, advisable, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may include Canada or the jurisdiction of any Additional Borrower) and which local counsel shall receive payment directly from the Borrower), with statements with respect to the foregoing to be submitted to the Borrowers prior to the Closing Date (in the case of amounts to be paid on the Closing Date) and from time to time thereafter on a quarterly basis or such other periodic basis as the Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender, the Administrative Agent and each of its Affiliates for all of their respective reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement and any such other Loan Documents, including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of one primary counsel to the Administrative Agent and each of its Affiliates, which counsel shall act on behalf of all Lenders (and if necessary or, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent, advisable, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may include Canada or the jurisdiction of any Additional Borrower)) (unless there is an actual conflict of interest in which case each such party with such conflict shall be entitled to retain separate outside counsel and local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction), and (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender and the Administrative Agent and their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnitee”) harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, claims, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements

of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance by a Borrower and administration of this Agreement and any such other Loan Documents, including any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of the Loans and the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel in connection with claims, actions or proceedings by any Indemnitee against a Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (all the foregoing in this clause (c), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided, that no Borrower shall have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities (i) are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction (or a settlement tantamount thereto) to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or material breach of this Agreement of or by, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be (or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, agents and advisors), (ii) are incurred by a Lender and result from a sale by such Lender of its Loan for a price less than par or the price paid by such Lender to purchase such Loan or (iii) result from claims made or legal proceedings commenced against the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates or any Lender or any of its Affiliates, as applicable, by any security holder or creditor thereof arising out of and based upon rights afforded any such security holder or creditor solely in its capacity as such. No Indemnitee shall be liable for (x) any damages arising from the use by unauthorized persons of information or other materials sent through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems that are intercepted by such persons, provided that such unauthorized persons’ use did not arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee and (y) any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Borrower shall not have any obligation under this Section 10.5 to any Person with respect to any Tax imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority. Statements payable by a Borrower pursuant to this Section 10.5 shall be submitted to Nick Willis, Assistant Treasurer (Telephone No.: 514 ###-###-####; E-mail: ***@***), at the address of the Parent Borrower set forth in Section 10.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by such Borrower in a written notice to the Administrative Agent. The agreements in this Section 10.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

10.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, all future holders of the Loans and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Lender (except for any assignment by the Subsidiary Borrower or the Canadian Borrower as permitted by Section 7.3) and Lenders may sell participations in or assign all or any part of their rights and obligations in respect of Loans only as provided in paragraphs (b) and (c) below, respectively, or pursuant to Section 2.23.

(b) Any Lender other than any Conduit Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers, in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, a “Participant”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Revolving Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender hereunder. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan for all purposes under this Agreement, and the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. In no event shall any Participant under any such participation have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or any consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees payable hereunder, or postpone the date of the final maturity of the Loans, in each case to the extent subject to such participation. Each Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement and the Loans are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement, provided that, in purchasing such participating interest, neither such Participant, on the one hand, nor the Borrowers nor the Administrative Agent, on the other hand, shall have any rights against or obligations to one another, nor shall any of them be required to deal directly with one another in respect of, the participation of such Participant. Each Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17, 2.18 and 2.19 (and subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.18(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.18(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) with respect to its participation in the Revolving Commitments and the Loans outstanding from time to time as if it was a Lender; provided that, in the case of Section 2.18, such Participant shall have complied with the requirements of said Section as if it were a Lender and provided, further, that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to any such Section than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Lender to such Participant had no such transfer occurred. For the avoidance of doubt, no Loan Party shall be required to pay any greater amount pursuant to Section 2.18 as a result of the transfer of a participation to a Participant than such Loan Party would have been required to pay absent such transfer. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or, in the case of any Canadian Borrower, to establish that such Participant dealt at arm’s length with the Canadian Borrower for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(c) Any Lender other than any Conduit Lender (an “Assignor”) shall be permitted to assign, in accordance with applicable law, all or a portion of its Loans and Revolving Commitments hereunder to an Eligible Assignee (an “Assignee”) with the consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, of (a) the Parent Borrower, unless (i) the Assignee is a Lender or a Lender Affiliate or (ii) an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or 8(b), or 8(h) or 8(i) (with respect to a Borrower), has occurred and is continuing; provided that such consent shall be deemed given if the Parent Borrower has not responded within 15 days of a written request from the Administrative Agent for such consent, (b) the Administrative Agent, and (c) each Issuing Lender, in each case pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption, executed by such Assignee, such Assignor and any other Person whose consent is required pursuant to this paragraph, and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the relevant Register (it being understood and agreed that such Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in which the Assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Parent Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws); provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, no Lender shall be entitled, without the consent of the Parent Borrower, to make an assignment under this Section 10.6(c) if such assignment would increase the cost under this Agreement to any Borrower, including without limitation under Section 2.17 or 2.18, as of the date of such assignment or if, as of the date of such assignment, such assignment would increase the cost under this Agreement to any Borrower in the foreseeable future. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording in the Register pursuant to Section 10.6(d), from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, (x) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with a Revolving Commitment and/or Loans as set forth therein, and (y) the Assignor thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of an Assignor’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Assignor shall cease to be a party hereto). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign at any time to its designating Lender hereunder without the consent of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent any or all of the Loans it may have funded hereunder and pursuant to its designation agreement and without regard to the limitations set forth in the first sentence of this Section 10.6(c).

(d) The Administrative Agent shall, on behalf of the Borrowers, maintain at its address referred to in Section 10.2 a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register (each, a “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Revolving Commitment of, and the principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time. The entries in each Register shall constitute prima facie evidence of the same, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in each Register as the owner of the Loans and any Notes evidencing the Loans recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. Any assignment of any Loan, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the relevant Register (and each Note shall expressly so provide). Any assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan evidenced by a Note shall be registered on the relevant Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the Note evidencing such Loan, accompanied by a duly executed Assignment and Assumption, and thereupon one or more new Notes may be issued to the designated Assignee, if requested by such Assignee.

(e) Except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, a Lender Affiliate or a Conduit Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Commitments or Loans within any Class, the amount of the Revolving Commitments or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than (x) in the case of an assignment of Revolving Commitments, US$5,000,000 or (y) in the case of an assignment of Loans, US$5,000,000, C$5,000,000 or €5,000,000, as applicable, in each case unless the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that (1) no such consent of the Parent Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or 8(b), or Section 8(h) or 8(i) has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Lender Affiliates or Conduit Lenders, if any.

(f) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Assumption in conformity with Section 10.6(c), executed by an Assignor, an Assignee and any other Person whose consent is required by Section 10.6(c), together with payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of US$3,500, the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Assumption and (ii) record the information contained therein in the relevant Register on the effective date determined pursuant thereto.

(g) For avoidance of doubt the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this Section 10.6 concerning assignments relate only to absolute assignments and that such provisions do not prohibit the granting of security, including any pledge or assignment by a Lender to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable law; provided that the foreclosure on any such pledged Loan shall be subject to the provisions regarding restrictions on assignments contained in this Section 10.6.

(h) Each Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in paragraph (g) above.

(i) Each Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent each hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance.

10.7 Set off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall, after the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, have the right, without prior notice to any Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by any Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch, agency or Lender Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of such Borrower. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with each Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

10.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

10.10 Integration. This Agreement represents the entire agreement of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein.

10.11 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

10.12 Submission to Jurisdiction; Appointment of Process Agent; Waivers. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York;

(b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

(c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, (i) in the case of the Canadian Borrower or any Additional Borrower organized in a jurisdiction other than the United States, the address of the Subsidiary Borrower set forth in Section 10.2 with a copy to the Canadian Borrower’s address set forth in Section 10.2 or the address of such Additional Borrower included in the documentation submitted pursuant to Section 2.24(a) or (ii) in the case of each other party, to its address set forth in Section 10.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto; and

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction.

10.13 Judgment Currency. If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert any amount owing or payable to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under this Agreement from the currency in which it is due (the “Agreed Currency”) into a particular currency (the “Judgment Currency”), the rate of exchange applied in that conversion shall be that at which the Administrative Agent, in accordance with its normal procedures, could purchase the Agreed Currency with the Judgment Currency at or about noon on the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which judgment is given. The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any amount owing or payable under this Agreement to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in the Agreed Currency shall, notwithstanding any judgment and payment in the Judgment Currency, be satisfied only to the extent that the Administrative Agent, in accordance with its normal procedures, could purchase the Agreed Currency with the amount of the Judgment Currency so paid at or about noon on the next Business Day following that payment; and if the amount of the Agreed Currency which the Administrative Agent could so purchase is less than the amount originally due in the Agreed Currency, such Borrower shall, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding the judgment or payment, indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders against any loss.

10.14 Risks of Superior Force. Each Borrower expressly assumes all risks of superior force, such that it shall be bound to timely execute each and every of its obligations under this Agreement notwithstanding the existence or occurrence of any event or circumstance constituting a superior force within the meaning of article 1693 of the Civil Code of Québec.

10.15 Language. The parties hereto agree that this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and all agreements and documents entered into in connection herewith or pursuant hereto shall be drawn up in English only. Les parties confirment qu’elles ont convenu que ce document ainsi que tous les autres documents ou contrats s’y rattachant soient redigés en anglais seulement.

10.16 Acknowledgements. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that:

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement;

(b) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders do not have any fiduciary relationship with or duty to such Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, and the relationship between the Administrative Agent and Lenders, on one hand, and such Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of creditor and debtor; and

(c) no joint venture is created hereby or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders or among the Borrowers and the Lenders.

10.17 Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall hold all non-public information obtained pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or obtained by them based on a review of the books and records of the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in accordance with their customary procedures for handling confidential information of this nature, but may make disclosure to any of their examiners, regulators (including the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions and any self regulatory authorities), Affiliates, outside auditors, counsel and other professional advisors in connection with this Agreement or as reasonably required by any potential bona fide Participant or Assignee, or in connection with the exercise of remedies under a Loan Document, or as requested by any Governmental Authority or pursuant to legal process or to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender; provided, however, that (1) unless specifically prohibited by Requirement of Law or court order, the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall promptly notify the Parent Borrower of any request by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with an examination of the Administrative Agent or Lender by such Governmental Authority) for disclosure of any such non-public information, where practicable, prior to disclosure of such information; (2) prior to any such disclosure pursuant to this Section 10.17, the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, shall require any bona fide Participant and Assignee receiving a disclosure of non-public information to agree in writing (a) to be bound in a manner similar to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Section 10.17; and (b) to require such Person to require any other Person to whom such Person discloses such non-public information to be similarly bound; (3) disclosure may, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower, be made by any Lender to any direct or indirect contractual counter parties of such Lender in Hedge Agreements or such contractual counter parties’ professional advisors; provided that such contractual counter party or professional advisor agrees in writing to keep such information confidential to the same extent required of the Lenders hereunder; and (4) except as may be required by an order of a court of competent jurisdiction and to the extent set forth therein, no Lender shall be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary. The Administrative Agent and each Borrower agrees to maintain the confidentiality of any rate provided by a Reference Bank, a Schedule I Reference Bank or a Schedule II/III Reference Bank as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement, except that such information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors on a need-to-know basis, (b) as consented to by the applicable Reference Bank, Schedule I Reference Bank or Schedule II/III Reference Bank, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, provided that in connection with any such requirement by a subpoena or similar legal process, the applicable Reference Bank, Schedule I Reference Bank or Schedule II/III Reference Bank is given prior notice to the extent such prior notice is permissible under the circumstances, (d) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder or (e) to the extent such information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.17 or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or such Borrower on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the applicable Reference Bank, Schedule I Reference Bank or Schedule II/III Reference Bank or its Affiliates.

CAM ALLOCATION AGREEMENT

Reference is hereby made to that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of October 3, 2014 (the “Credit Agreement”), among Domtar Corporation (the “Parent Borrower”), Domtar Paper Company, LLC (the “Subsidiary Borrower”), Domtar Inc. (the “Canadian Borrower”), the Additional Borrowers from time to time party thereto (each an “Additional Borrower” and together with the Parent Borrower, the Subsidiary Borrower and the Canadian Borrower, collectively, the “Borrowers”), the banks and other financial institutions or entities from time to time parties thereto (the “Lenders”), the Bank of Nova Scotia and Bank of America, N.A., as syndication agents (in such capacity, the “Syndication Agents”), and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”).

W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Borrowers will obtain a revolving loan facility under which the Borrowers shall obtain commitments from the Lenders in respect of revolving credit loans in an amount of up to US$600,000,000;

WHEREAS, in order to allocate the Loans and certain other Obligations among the Lenders in the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have agreed to enter into this Agreement;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements contained herein, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent agree as follows:

I. DEFINITIONS

1.1(a) Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Credit Agreement and used herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement.

(b) The following terms shall have the following meanings:

“CAM Exchange”: the exchange of the Lenders’ interests provided for in Section 2 hereto.

“CAM Exchange Date”: the date on which (i) any event referred to in subsections 8(h) or (i) of the Credit Agreement shall occur with respect to any Borrower, any Material Subsidiary or any other Subsidiary or (ii) an acceleration of the maturity of the Loans pursuant to Section 8 of the Credit Agreement shall occur.

“CAM Percentage”: as to each Lender, a fraction, expressed as a decimal, of which (i) the numerator shall be (without duplication) the aggregate amount of the Obligations owed to such Lender and such Lender’s participation in the aggregate L/C Obligations as of the CAM Exchange Date and before giving effect to the CAM Exchange and (ii) the denominator shall be (without duplication) the aggregate amount of the Obligations owed to all Lenders and the aggregate L/C Obligations as of the CAM Exchange Date and before giving effect to the CAM Exchange. The foregoing amounts shall be determined in US Dollars by reference to the US Dollar Equivalent as of the CAM Exchange Date of any such amounts in Canadian Dollars or Euros. As provided in Section 2.16(c) of the Credit Agreement, all Loans and all unreimbursed drawings in Letters of Credit then outstanding and other amounts then due and payable, in each case in Canadian Dollars or Euros, shall be converted to US Dollars based on the then US Dollar Equivalent thereof and interest thereon shall thereafter be payable at the rate provided for in Section 2.13(g) of the Credit Agreement. Each Lender shall immediately notify the Administrative Agent of any Obligations owing to it as of the CAM Exchange Date that are not in the nature of principal, interest or fees customarily maintained in the records of the Administrative Agent.

“L/C Reserve Account”: as defined in Section 2.3.

II. COLLECTION ALLOCATION MECHANISM

2.1 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any Loan Document, on the CAM Exchange Date, (i) to the extent provided for in the Credit Agreement, all Revolving Commitments shall automatically and without further act be terminated and all Loans then outstanding shall automatically become due and payable and (ii) the Lenders shall automatically and without further act be deemed to have exchanged interests in the Revolving Commitments and the extensions of credit made thereunder such that in lieu of the interest of each Lender in the Tranche 1 Revolving Commitments and the extensions of credit made thereunder or the Tranche 2 Revolving Commitments and the extensions of credit made thereunder, as the case may be, in which it shall participate as of such date, such Lender shall hold an interest in every one of the Revolving Commitments and the extensions of credit made thereunder (including each L/C Reserve Account established pursuant to Section 2.3 below), whether or not such Lender shall previously have participated therein, equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage thereof; provided that such CAM Exchange will not affect the aggregate amount of the obligations of the Loan Parties to the Lenders under the Loan Documents. Each Lender hereby consents and agrees to the CAM Exchange and agrees that the CAM Exchange shall be binding upon its successors and assigns and any person that acquires a participation in its interests in any of the Revolving Commitments and the extensions of credit made thereunder.

2.2 As a result of a CAM Exchange, upon and after the CAM Exchange Date, each payment received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of the Obligations (net of any amounts then owing or reasonably set aside to cover amounts that may become owing to the Administrative Agent by the Loan Parties on account of fees, expenses, indemnities and similar items), and each distribution made by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of the Obligations, shall be distributed to the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective CAM Percentages. Any direct payment received by a Lender upon or after the CAM Exchange Date, including by way of setoff, in respect of an Obligation, shall be paid over to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders in accordance therewith.

2.3(a) On the CAM Exchange Date, to the extent any Tranche 1 Revolving Lender has not funded its required participation in any outstanding Swingline Loan or unreimbursed drawing under any Letter of Credit, it shall do so, before giving effect to the CAM Exchange, in immediately available funds and in the applicable currency, with interest thereon as provided for in the Credit Agreement.

(b) In the event that on the CAM Exchange Date any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding and undrawn in whole or in part, each Tranche 1 Revolving Lender shall, before giving effect to the CAM Exchange, promptly pay over to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds and in the currency that such Letter of Credit is denominated, an amount equal to such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender’s Tranche 1 Revolving Percentage (as notified to such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender by the Administrative Agent) of such Letter of Credit’s undrawn face amount, together with interest thereon from the CAM Exchange Date to the date on which such amount shall be paid to the Administrative Agent at the rate that would be applicable at the time to a Revolving Loan that is an ABR Loan, Canadian Prime Rate Loan or Foreign Base Rate Loan, as applicable, accruing interest at the ABR Rate, the Canadian Prime Rate or the Foreign Base Rate, as the case may be, in a principal amount equal to such amount. Each such payment shall be made in the currency of the undrawn amount.

I-2

(c) The Administrative Agent shall establish a separate account or accounts in the applicable currencies for each Lender (including each Tranche 2 Revolving Lender) (all of such accounts for any Lender, an “L/C Reserve Account”) for the amounts received with respect to the undrawn amount of each Letter of Credit outstanding on the CAM Exchange Date. The Administrative Agent shall deposit in each Lender’s L/C Reserve Account such Lender’s CAM Percentage of the amounts received from the Lenders as provided above. The Administrative Agent shall have sole dominion and control over each L/C Reserve Account, and the amounts deposited in each L/C Reserve Account shall be held in such L/C Reserve Account until withdrawn as provided in Sections 2.4, 2.5, 2.6 and 2.7 below. The Administrative Agent shall maintain records enabling it to determine the amounts paid over to it and deposited in the L/C Reserve Accounts in respect of each Letter of Credit attributable to each Lender’s CAM Percentage. The amounts held in each Lender’s L/C Reserve Account shall be held as a reserve against the undrawn L/C Obligations, shall be the property of such Lender, shall not constitute Loans to or give rise to any claim of or against any Loan Party and shall not give rise to any obligation on the part of any Borrower to pay interest to such Lender, it being agreed that the reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit shall arise only at such times as drawings are made thereunder, as provided in Section 3 of the Credit Agreement.

2.4 In the event that after the CAM Exchange Date any drawing shall be made in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Issuing Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit, withdraw from the L/C Reserve Account of each Lender any amounts, up to the amount of such Lender’s CAM Percentage of such drawing, deposited in respect of such Letter of Credit and remaining on deposit and deliver such amounts to such Issuing Lender in satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Lenders under Section 3 of the Credit Agreement (but not of any Borrower under Section 3 of the Credit Agreement). In the event any Tranche 1 Revolving Lender shall have defaulted on its obligations to pay over any amount to the Administrative Agent in respect of any Letter of Credit as provided in this Section 2, the Issuing Lender in respect thereof shall, in the event of a drawing thereunder, have a claim against such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender to the same extent as if such Tranche 1 Revolving Lender had defaulted on its obligations under Section 3 of the Credit Agreement, but shall have no claim against any other Lender in respect of such defaulted amount, notwithstanding the exchange of interests in the reimbursement obligations pursuant to Section 2.1 above. Each other Lender shall have a claim against such defaulting Lender for any damages sustained by it as a result of any such default, including, in the event such Letter of Credit shall expire undrawn, such other Lender’s CAM Percentage of the defaulted amount and interest thereon as provided for herein.

2.5 In the event that after the CAM Exchange Date any Letter of Credit shall expire undrawn, the Administrative Agent shall withdraw from the L/C Reserve Account of each Lender the amount remaining on deposit therein in respect of such Letter of Credit and distribute such amount to such Lender in the currency of such deposit or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, in US Dollars based upon the then US Dollar Equivalent of such amount.

2.6 With the prior written approval of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit, any Lender may withdraw any amount held in its L/C Reserve Account in respect of the undrawn amount of any Letter of Credit. Any Lender making such a withdrawal shall be unconditionally obligated, in the event there shall subsequently be a drawing under such Letter of Credit, to pay over to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender on demand, its CAM Percentage.

I-3

2.7 Pending the withdrawal by any Lender of any amounts from its L/C Reserve Account as contemplated by the above paragraphs, the Administrative Agent will, subject to such rules as the Administrative Agent may prescribe for the avoidance of inconvenience, invest such amounts in Cash Equivalents or other similar obligations in its discretion. Each Lender that has not withdrawn the amounts in its L/C Reserve Account as provided in Section 2.6 above shall have the right, at intervals reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent, to withdraw the earnings on investments so made by the Administrative Agent (including amounts representing interest paid as provided in Section 2.3(b)) with amounts in its L/C Reserve Account and to retain such earnings for its own account.

2.8 The Administrative Agent shall, in its reasonable discretion, make adjustments from time to time in the distributions provided for herein to take fairly into account, as reasonably determined by it, changes in the Obligations owing to any Lender or Lenders after the CAM Exchange Date that are disproportionate to changes affecting other Lenders, as a result of such Lender or Lenders becoming entitled to claims for expenses, indemnities, taxes or similar items or such Lender or Lenders being required to return any payments previously made to them by any Loan Parties or otherwise.

III. MISCELLANEOUS

3.1 This Agreement shall be deemed to be executed and delivered by each Lender and the Administrative Agent as of the Closing Date as provided for in Section 10.19 of the Credit Agreement. Each Assignee shall automatically become a party to this Agreement.

3.2 Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

3.3 This Agreement represents the entire agreement of each of the parties to the Credit Agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof and the provisions of this Agreement shall control, as among the parties hereto, in the event of any conflict between such provisions and the Credit Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Loan Parties are not parties hereto and are not bound hereby.

3.4 The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to all of the benefits and rights contained in Section 10 of the Credit Agreement as though this Agreement were a part of the Credit Agreement.

3.5 THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

3.6 Each party hereto herby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(i) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York;

(ii) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient forum and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

I-4

(iii) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the applicable party to the Credit Agreement at the address specified in Section 10.2 of the Credit Agreement or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto; and

(iv) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction.

3.7 EACH BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.
