Any payment made by a Participating Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. Each Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect, or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by an Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, such Borrower’s obligations hereunder. None of the Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and any of their Related Parties shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of any Issuing Bank, provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to any Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by any Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence, wilful misconduct, violation of law or breach of any of its other obligations under the Loan Documents on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealed judgment), each Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, each Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

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

(h) Interim Interest. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the applicable Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, (i) in the case of an LC Disbursement with respect to a Letter of Credit denominated in US Dollars, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans, (ii) in the case of an LC Disbursement with respect to a Letter of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars, at the rate per annum then applicable to Canadian Base Rate Loans and (iii) in the case of an LC Disbursement with respect to a Letter of Credit denominated in any other Foreign Currency, at the rate per annum then applicable to Eurocurrency Borrowings in such Foreign Currency having an Interest Period of one month, provided that if the applicable Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Participating Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement of an Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the US Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank, which agreement shall set forth whether such Issuing Bank is a US Dollar Issuing Bank or a Multicurrency Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Participating Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(c). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the applicable replaced Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the US Borrower receives notice from any Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrowers shall deposit in an account with (i) the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders, an amount in cash and in US Dollars equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, in each case attributable to Letters of Credit denominated in US Dollars and (ii) the London Agent, in the name of the London Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders, an amount in cash and in the applicable Foreign Currency equal to the LC Exposure (expressed in the applicable Foreign Currency) as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, in each case attributable to Letters of Credit denominated in Foreign Currencies, provided that the obligations set forth in the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii) shall become effective immediately, and such deposits shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to a Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Section 7.01. Each Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.11(b) or (d). Each such deposit pursuant to this paragraph or Section 2.11(b) or (d) shall be held by the Applicable Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of each Borrower under this Agreement. Each Applicable Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Applicable Agent and at the Borrowers’ risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Applicable Agent to reimburse each Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. If any Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If a Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.11(b) or (d), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, such Borrower would remain in compliance with Section 2.11(b) or (d), as applicable, and no Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

SECTION 2.06. Funding of Borrowings and B/A Drawings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it and disburse the Discount Proceeds (net of applicable acceptance fees) of each B/A to be accepted and purchased by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds in the applicable currency by 1:00 p.m., Local Time, to the account of the Applicable Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the applicable Lenders. The Applicable Agent will make such Loans or Discount Proceeds (net of applicable acceptance fees) available to the applicable Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of such Borrower previously identified to the Applicable Agent (i) in New York City, in the case of Loans denominated in US Dollars, (ii) in Toronto, in the case of Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars or B/As and (iii) in London, in the case of Loans denominated in any Foreign Currency other than Canadian Dollars.

(b) Unless the Applicable Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing or acceptance and purchase of B/As that such Lender will not make available to the Applicable Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing or the applicable Discount Proceeds (net of applicable acceptance fees), the Applicable Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing or the applicable Discount Proceeds (net of applicable acceptance fees) available to the Applicable Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Applicable Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Applicable Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of (x)(A) the Federal Funds Effective Rate, in the case of Loans denominated in US Dollars and (B) the rate reasonably determined by the Applicable Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount, in the case of Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency, and (y) a rate determined by the Applicable Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of a Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing or the applicable Discount Rate, as the case may be. If such Lender pays such amount to the Applicable Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing or such Lender’s purchase of B/As.

SECTION 2.07. Interest Elections. (a) Each Revolving Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Each B/A Drawing shall have a Contract Period as specified in the applicable request therefor. Thereafter, the applicable Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing or B/A Drawing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing or B/A Drawing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section, it being understood that no B/A Drawing may be converted or continued other than at the end of the Contract Period applicable thereto. The applicable Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing or B/A Drawing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing or accepting the B/As comprising such B/A Drawing, as the case may be, and any Loans or B/As resulting from an election made with respect to any such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing or B/A Drawing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no Revolving Borrowing or B/A Drawing may be converted into or continued as a Revolving Borrowing or B/A Drawing with an Interest Period or Contract Period, respectively, ending after the Revolving Maturity Date.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, a Borrower shall notify the Applicable Agent of such election by telephone or by telecopy (i) in the case of an election that would result in a Borrowing, by the time and date that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election, and (ii) in the case of an election that would result in a B/A Drawing or the continuation of a B/A Drawing, by the time and date that a request would be required under Section 2.20 if such Borrower were requesting an acceptance and purchase of B/As to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and, if telephonic, shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Applicable Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Applicable Agent and signed by the applicable Borrower. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no Borrower shall be permitted to (i) change the currency of any Borrowing, (ii) elect an Interest Period for Eurocurrency Loans that does not comply with Section 2.02(d) or a Contract Period for B/As that does not comply with Section 2.20(c) or (iii) convert any Borrowing to a different Class.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the Borrowing or B/A Drawing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing or B/A Drawing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing or B/A Drawing);

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

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing, a Eurocurrency Borrowing, a Canadian Base Rate Borrowing or a B/A Drawing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”, and in the case of an election of a B/A Drawing, the Contract Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Contract Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a B/A Drawing but does not specify an Interest Period or a Contract Period, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period or a Contract Period of one month’s or 30 days’ duration, as applicable.

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

(e) If a Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a B/A Drawing prior to the end of the Interest Period or Contract Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing or B/A Drawing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period or Contract Period, such Borrowing or B/A Drawing shall (i) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in US Dollars, be converted to an ABR Borrowing, (ii) in the case of a Borrowing or B/A Drawing denominated in Canadian Dollars, be converted to a Canadian Base Rate Borrowing and (iii) in the case of any other Eurocurrency Borrowing, be converted to a Eurocurrency Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the US Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing denominated in US Dollars may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing, (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in US Dollars shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) all other Eurocurrency Borrowings and all B/A Drawings must be repaid in full at the end of the Interest Period or Contract Period, respectively, applicable thereto.

(f) Upon the conversion of any Borrowing denominated in Canadian Dollars (or portion thereof), or the continuation of any B/A Drawing (or portion thereof), to or as a B/A Drawing, the net amount that would otherwise be payable to a Borrower by each Lender pursuant to Section 2.20(f) in respect of such new B/A Drawing shall be applied against the principal of the Revolving Loan made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing (in the case of a conversion), or the reimbursement obligation owed to such Lender under Section 2.20(i) in respect of the B/As accepted by such Lender as part of such maturing B/A Drawing (in the case of a continuation), and such Borrower shall pay to such Lender an amount equal to the difference between the principal amount of such Revolving Loan or the aggregate face amount of such maturing B/As, as the case may be, and such net amount.

SECTION 2.08. Termination and Reduction of Commitments.

(a) Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date.

(b) The US Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of any Class, provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of US$5,000,000 and not less than US$5,000,000, (ii) the US Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Limited Currency Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Limited Currency Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, (A) the sum of the Limited Currency Revolving Exposures would exceed the total Limited Currency Revolving Commitments or (B) the sum of the Foreign Currency Revolving Exposures would exceed the Foreign Currency Sublimit, (iii) the US Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Multicurrency Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, (A) the sum of the Multicurrency Revolving Exposures would exceed the total Multicurrency Revolving Commitments or (B) the sum of the Foreign Currency Revolving Exposures would exceed the Foreign Currency Sublimit and (iv) the US Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the US Dollar Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the US Dollar Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, the sum of the US Dollar Revolving Exposures would exceed the total US Dollar Revolving Commitments,.

(c) The US Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the US Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable, provided that a notice of termination of any Revolving Commitments delivered by the US Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the US Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

SECTION 2.09. Repayment of Loans and B/As; Evidence of Debt.

(a) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Applicable Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender made to it on the Revolving Maturity Date and the face amount of each B/A, if any, accepted by such Lender and requested by it as provided in Section 2.20, (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan of such Lender made to it as provided in Section 2.10, (iii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Incremental Term Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Existing Incremental Term Loan and each Incremental Term Loan of such Incremental Term Lender as provided in Section 2.10 and (iv) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan made to it on the earlier of the Revolving Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least five Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made, provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made, the US Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans that were outstanding on the date such Borrowing was requested. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each Loan shall be repaid in the currency in which such Loan is denominated.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made or B/A accepted by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest and amounts in respect of B/As payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof, the currency thereof and the Interest Period, if any, applicable thereto, and the amount of each B/A and the Contract Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal, interest or other amount in respect of any B/A due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Agents hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. Each other Agent shall promptly provide the Administrative Agent with all information needed to maintain such accounts in respect of the Loans or B/A Drawings administered by such Agent.

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein, provided that the failure of any Lender or Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the applicable Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

SECTION 2.10. Amortization of Term Loans. (a) Subject to adjustment pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, the (i) US Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Term Lenders on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing on March 31, 2006, an aggregate principal amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans outstanding on the Original Effective Date and (ii) the US Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Incremental Term Lenders on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing on March 31, 2007, an aggregate principal amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of all Existing Incremental Term Loans outstanding on the respective Incremental Effective Date (as specified in the Incremental Assumption Agreement relating to such Incremental Term Loan).

(b) To the extent not previously paid, all Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Term Maturity Date and all Existing Incremental Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Existing Incremental Term Maturity Date.

(c) Any prepayment of a Term Borrowing made pursuant to Section 2.11(b) shall be applied to reduce the subsequent scheduled repayments of the Term Loans to be made pursuant to this Section ratably; otherwise, prepayments of Term Borrowings shall be applied as directed by the US Borrower.

(d) Prior to any repayment of any Term Borrowings hereunder, the US Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid and shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such selection not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment. Each repayment of a Term Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid Borrowing. Repayments of Term Borrowings shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid.

SECTION 2.11. Prepayment of Loans and B/As. (a) The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time, and without premium or penalty, to prepay any Borrowing and to cash collateralize amounts owed in respect of outstanding B/As in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section and payment of any amounts required under Section 2.16, provided that all voluntary prepayments of Term Loans effected on or prior to the first anniversary of the Original Effective Date with the proceeds of an issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness by Parent, any Borrower or any other Subsidiary will be accompanied by a prepayment fee equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of such prepayment.

(c) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of Parent, any Borrower or any other Subsidiary in respect of any Prepayment Event (other than such Net Proceeds received by an Excluded Subsidiary (i) if such Excluded Subsidiary is a Foreign Subsidiary, to the extent that such Foreign Subsidiary is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from repatriating to the United States such Net Proceeds for so long, but for only so long, as applicable local law will not permit such repatriation to the United States and (ii) with respect to any Excluded Subsidiary (including Foreign Subsidiaries) that is not directly or indirectly wholly owned by Parent, to the extent that and for so long, but for only so long, as (1) no Loan Party has the power to, directly or indirectly, require such Excluded Subsidiary to distribute or otherwise forward such Net Proceeds to a Loan Party and (2) such Excluded Subsidiary has not actually distributed or otherwise forwarded such Net Proceeds to a Loan Party (the Parent hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Subsidiary to promptly (x) take all actions required by applicable local law to permit such repatriation and (y) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Subsidiary to distribute or otherwise forward such Net Proceeds to a Loan Party), provided that, in each case, once such repatriation to the United States is permitted, or such distribution or forwarding is authorized, with respect to any of such affected Net Proceeds, such repatriation, distribution or forwarding will be immediately effected and such repatriated, distributed or otherwise forwarded Net Proceeds will be promptly (and in any event not later than 10 Business Days after such repatriation) applied in accordance with this Section 2.11(c)), the Borrowers shall, within 10 Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received, prepay Term Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the amount of such Net Proceeds, provided that in the case of any event described in clause (a) or (b) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”, if the US Borrower shall deliver, within 10 Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received, to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer (i) to the effect that (A) Parent, the US Borrower or any other Subsidiary intends to apply the Net Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof specified in such certificate), within 365 days after receipt of such Net Proceeds, to acquire, purchase, improve, enlarge, develop or make Capital Expenditures with respect to (1) property or assets (other than Permitted Investments or Equity Interests in, or Indebtedness of, any of the Borrowers or other Subsidiaries) of any of the Borrowers or the other Subsidiaries to be used in a Related Business conducted by such Borrower or other Subsidiary or (2) Equity Interests outstanding prior to such investment and held by an unrelated third party in a Person that does not engage to any material extent in a business that is not a Related Business, and (B) if such Net Proceeds (or such portion thereof) have been received by an Excluded Subsidiary (other than LN Gaiety Holdings Limited, a company incorporated in England and Wales, or any of its subsidiaries (excluding any Person that was otherwise a Subsidiary before becoming a subsidiary of LN Gaiety Holdings Limited)) or are applied to purchase Equity Interests in a Person that is not a Subsidiary following the consummation of such investment, the application of such Net Proceeds (or such portion thereof) by such Excluded Subsidiary (to the extent such Net Proceeds were not actually distributed or forwarded to a Loan Party) or the purchase of such Equity Interests will be deemed an Investment in such Excluded Subsidiary or such Equity Interests that will be deemed to have been made subject to Section 6.04(p) (without duplication to the extent such Net Proceeds are applied in accordance with Section 6.04(l) or (p)) and (ii) certifying that no Default has occurred and is continuing, then no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of the Net Proceeds in respect of such event (or the portion of such Net Proceeds specified in such certificate, if applicable) other than a prepayment in an amount equal to the amount by which (1) 50% of the Asset Sale Excess Proceeds immediately after giving effect to the receipt of the Net Proceeds resulting in such Prepayment Event, exceeds (2) the aggregate amount of all other prepayments from Net Proceeds received in respect of any event described in clause (a) or (b) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event” that were made pursuant to Section 2.11(c) from and after the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a prepayment of 100% of such Net Proceeds shall be due and payable, if and to the extent that such Net Proceeds (X) have not been so applied in accordance with Section 2.11(c) by the end of such 365-day period and at a time when no Default has occurred and is continuing or (Y) only in the case of Net Proceeds which the Parent, the US Borrower or any other Subsidiary has, by the end of such 365-day period, committed by contractual arrangements to use, by the date that is 180 days after the end of such 365-day period, for the acquisition of real property, have not been so applied by the end of such 180 days after the end of such 365-day period and at a time when no Default has occurred and is continuing.

(d) Prior to any optional or mandatory prepayment of Borrowings or cash collateralization of amounts owing in respect of outstanding B/A Drawings, the applicable Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings and the B/A Drawing or Drawings to be prepaid or cash collateralized and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section.

(e) The applicable Borrower shall notify the Applicable Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) or by telecopy of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing or a Canadian Base Rate Borrowing or cash collateralization of a B/A Drawing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment or cash collateralization date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof, or amount owed in respect of an outstanding B/A Drawing or portion thereof, to be prepaid or cash collateralized, provided that if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.08, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.08. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing or B/A, the Applicable Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing or cash collateralization of amounts owing in respect of a B/A Drawing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02 or an acceptance and purchase of B/As as provided in Section 2.20. Each prepayment of a Borrowing or cash collateralization of a B/A Drawing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing or the B/As included in such B/A Drawing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each Loan shall be prepaid in the currency in which such Loan is denominated.

(f) Amounts to be applied pursuant to this Section or Article VII to cash collateralize amounts to become due with respect to outstanding B/As shall be deposited in the Prepayment Account (as defined below). The Canadian Agent shall apply any cash deposited in the Prepayment Account allocable to amounts to become due in respect of B/As on the last day of their respective Contract Periods until all amounts due in respect of outstanding B/As have been prepaid or until all the allocable cash on deposit has been exhausted. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Prepayment Account” means an account established by a Canadian Borrower with the Canadian Agent and over which the Canadian Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal for application in accordance with this paragraph (f). The Canadian Agent will, at the request of such Canadian Borrower, invest amounts on deposit in the Prepayment Account in short-term, cash equivalent investments selected by the Canadian Agent in consultation with such Canadian Borrower that mature prior to the last day of the applicable Contract Periods of the B/As to be prepaid, provided that the Canadian Agent shall have no obligation to invest amounts on deposit in the Prepayment Account if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. The Borrowers shall indemnify the Canadian Agent for any losses relating to the investments so that the amount available to prepay amounts due in respect of B/As on the last day of the applicable Contract Period is not less than the amount that would have been available had no investments been made pursuant thereto. Other than any interest earned on such investments (which shall be for the account of such Canadian Borrower, to the extent not necessary for the prepayment of B/As in accordance with this Section and Article VII), the Prepayment Account shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall be deposited in the Prepayment Account and reinvested and disbursed as specified above. If the maturity of the Loans and all amounts due hereunder has been accelerated pursuant to Article VII, the Canadian Agent may, in its sole discretion, apply all amounts on deposit in the Prepayment Account to satisfy any of the Obligations in respect of the Loans, unreimbursed LC Disbursements and B/As (and each Borrower hereby grants to the Canadian Agent a security interest in its Prepayment Account to secure such Obligations).

(g) Any repayment or prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be allocated between the Term Borrowings and the Existing Incremental Term Borrowings ratably in accordance with the respective principal amounts outstanding thereof.

SECTION 2.12. Fees. (a) The US Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, in US Dollars, for the account of the office (or Affiliate) of each Lender from which such Lender would make Loans to the US Borrower in US Dollars hereunder (which office or Affiliate shall be specified by each Lender in a notice delivered to the Administrative Agent prior to the initial payment to such Lender under this paragraph) a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily unused amount of the total Revolving Commitments of such Lender during the period from and including the date of this Agreement to but excluding the date on which such Revolving Commitments terminate. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on 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. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing commitment fees with respect to Revolving Commitments, a Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender (and the Swingline Exposure of such Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) shall be disregarded for such purpose).

(b) Each Canadian Borrower agrees to pay to the Canadian Agent, in US Dollars, for the account of each Revolving Lender, on each date on which a B/A drawn by such Canadian Borrower is accepted hereunder an acceptance fee computed by multiplying the US Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of each such B/A by the product of (i) the Applicable Rate for B/A Drawings on such date by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Contract Period applicable to such B/A and the denominator of which is 365.

(c) The US Borrower agrees to pay, in US Dollars, (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Participating Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including April 1, 2007 to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Participating Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure and (ii) to each Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including April 1, 2007 to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Participating Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as each Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date, provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Participating Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Participating Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to any Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph which accrue during any calendar month shall be payable within 5 Business Days after the end of such calendar month. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(d) The applicable Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, in US Dollars, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between such Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(e) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.13. Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate, and the Loans comprising each Canadian Base Rate Borrowing shall bear interest at the Canadian Base Rate.

(b) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by any Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.

(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the applicable Revolving Commitments, provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan or Canadian Base Rate Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Revolving Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that (i) interest on Borrowings denominated in Sterling and (ii) interest computed by reference to the Canadian Base Rate or to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or, except in the case of Borrowings denominated in Sterling, 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Canadian Base Rate or Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate shall be determined by the Applicable Agent and the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.14. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in any currency:

(i) the Applicable Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate, the LIBO Rate or the EURIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or

(ii) the Applicable Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate, the LIBO Rate or the EURIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Applicable Agent shall give notice thereof to the applicable Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Applicable Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing in such currency for such Interest Period shall be ineffective, and such Borrowing shall be converted to or continued on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (A) if such Borrowing is denominated in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars, as an ABR Borrowing or Canadian Base Rate Borrowing, respectively or (B) if such Borrowing is denominated in any other currency, as a Borrowing bearing interest at such rate as the Lenders and the applicable Borrower may agree adequately reflects the costs to the Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans (or, in the absence of such agreement, shall be repaid as of the last day of the current Interest Period applicable thereto) and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing in such currency for such Interest Period, (X) if such Borrowing is denominated in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing or Canadian Base Rate Borrowing, respectively (or such Borrowing shall not be made if the applicable Borrower revokes (and in such circumstances, such Borrowing Request may be revoked notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement) such Borrowing Request by telephonic notice, confirmed promptly in writing, not later than one Business Day prior to the proposed date of such Borrowing) or (Y) if such Borrowing is denominated in any other currency, such Borrowing shall bear interest at such rate as the Lenders and the applicable Borrower may agree adequately reflects the costs to the Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans (or, in the absence of such agreement, such Borrowing shall be cancelled).

SECTION 2.15. Increased Costs; Illegality. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate) or any Issuing Bank; or

(ii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the Euro, London or Canadian interbank markets any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans or B/A Drawings made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan or obtaining funds for the purchase of B/As (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan or to accept and purchase B/As) or to increase the cost to such Lender or any Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on an after-tax basis for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by an Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to any Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.

(d) If the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining any Loan to or obtaining funds for the purchase of B/As from or participating in any Letter of Credit or any Issuing Bank of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit to any Foreign Borrower is increased (or the amount of any sum received or receivable by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) or any Issuing Bank is reduced) by an amount deemed in good faith by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to be material, by reason of the fact that such Foreign Borrower is incorporated in, or conducts business in, a jurisdiction outside the United States, such Borrowers shall indemnify such Lender or such Issuing Bank for such increased cost or reduction upon demand by such Lender or such Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent). A certificate of such Lender or such Issuing Bank claiming compensation under this paragraph and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder (and the basis for the calculation of such amount or amounts) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(e) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies any Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor, provided further that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if, after the date hereof, (i) any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Revolving Lender to make or maintain any Foreign Currency Revolving Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any Foreign Currency Revolving Loan or (ii) there shall have occurred any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions (including the imposition of or any change in exchange controls) or currency exchange rates that would make it impracticable for any Revolving Lender to make or maintain Foreign Currency Revolving Loans denominated in the affected currency, then, by written notice to the applicable Borrower and to the Applicable Agent:

(i) such Revolving Lender or Revolving Lenders may declare that Foreign Currency Revolving Loans in the affected currency or currencies will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness or impracticality) be made by such Lender or Lenders hereunder (or, in the case of outstanding Foreign Currency Revolving Loans, be continued for additional Interest Periods), whereupon any request for a Foreign Currency Revolving Borrowing in the affected currency or currencies (or to continue a Foreign Currency Revolving Borrowing in the affected currency or currencies for an additional Interest Period) shall, as to such Revolving Lender or Revolving Lenders only, be deemed a request for an Eurocurrency Loan having an Interest Period of one month’s duration and denominated in US Dollars at the Exchange Rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement (or a request to convert a Foreign Currency Revolving Loan into a Eurocurrency Loan having an Interest Period of one month’s duration and denominated in US Dollars at the Exchange Rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto), unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and

(ii) such Lender may require that all outstanding Foreign Currency Revolving Loans in the affected currency or currencies made by it be converted to Eurocurrency Loans having an Interest Period of one month’s duration and denominated in US Dollars, in which event all such Foreign Currency Revolving Loans in the affected currency or currencies shall be converted to Eurocurrency Loans having an Interest Period of one month’s duration and denominated in US Dollars, as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (g) below and at the Exchange Rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement on the date of such conversion.

In the event any Revolving Lender shall exercise its rights under clause (i) or (ii) above, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Foreign Currency Revolving Loans that would have been made by such Revolving Lender or the converted Foreign Currency Revolving Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Foreign Currency Revolving Loans.

(g) For purposes of paragraph (f) of this Section 2.15, a notice to the applicable Borrower by any Lender shall be effective as to each Foreign Currency Revolving Loan made by such Lender, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period currently applicable to such Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt thereof by the applicable Borrower.

SECTION 2.16. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan or in respect of a B/A other than on the last day of an Interest Period or Contract Period, as the case may be, applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan or B/A other than on the last day of the Interest Period or Contract Period, as the case may be, applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Revolving Loan or to issue B/As for acceptance and purchase on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(e) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan or the right to receive payment in respect of a B/A other than on the last day of the Interest Period or Contract Period, as the case may be, applicable thereto as a result of a request by the US Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19 or the CAM Exchange, then, in any such event, the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in the applicable currency of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurocurrency market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section, together with supporting documentation or computations, shall be delivered to the applicable Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.17. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any of the Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if any Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

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

(c) The applicable Borrower shall indemnify each Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank, within 10 Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by such Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of such Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and 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. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount and nature of such payment or liability delivered to any Borrower by a Lender, by an Issuing Bank or by an Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

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

(e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the laws of the United States of America, or any treaty to which the United States of America is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the US Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by US law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by US law or reasonably requested by the US Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. Parent and each Borrower agree to take all actions required in order for all exemptions from withholding taxes available to any Foreign Lender to be effective.

(f) If an Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower or with respect to which any Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund to the applicable Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrowers under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrowers, upon the request of such Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, agree to repay the amount paid over to the applicable Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank in the event such Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.

SECTION 2.18. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17 or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 12:00 noon, Local Time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Applicable Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Applicable Agent to the applicable account specified from time to time by such Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Applicable Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder of principal or interest in respect of any Loan or amounts owing in respect of any B/A Drawing (or of any breakage indemnity in respect of any Loan or B/A Drawing) shall be made in the currency of such Loan or B/A Drawing; all other payments hereunder and under each other Loan Document shall be made in US Dollars, except as otherwise expressly provided. Any payment required to be made by an Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if such Agent shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by such Agent to make such payment.

(b) If at any time funds received by or made available to any Agent from any Borrower are insufficient to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due from such Borrower hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due from such Borrower hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal of the Loans and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due from such Borrower hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans, amounts owing in respect of any B/A Drawing or participations in LC Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans, amounts owing in respect of any B/A Drawing or participations in LC Disbursements, and accrued interest thereon, than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans, amounts owing in respect of any B/A Drawing or participations in LC Disbursements, as applicable, of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans, amounts owing in respect of any B/A Drawing and participations in LC Disbursements, provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans, amounts owing in respect of B/A Drawings or participations in LC Disbursements, to any assignee or participant, other than to a Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Applicable Agent shall have received notice from the applicable Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Applicable Agent for the account of the Lenders or any Issuing Bank hereunder that the applicable Borrower will not make such payment, the Applicable Agent may assume that such payment has been made on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such payment has not in fact been made, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Applicable Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Applicable Agent, at (i) the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Applicable Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (in the case of an amount denominated in US Dollars) and (ii) the rate reasonably determined by the Applicable Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount (in the case of an amount denominated in any Foreign Currency).

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(b), 2.18(d) or 9.03(c), then the Applicable Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Applicable Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

SECTION 2.19. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional interest to any Lender pursuant to Section 2.22, then such Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15, 2.17 or 2.22, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional interest to any Lender pursuant to Section 2.22, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then the US 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 9.04), 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) to the extent required under Section 9.04, the US Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and B/As and participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the US Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17 or additional interest required pursuant to Section 2.22, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation, payments, additional interest or administrative burden to any Borrower that is beneficial to such Borrower in a material respect.

SECTION 2.20. Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances. (a) Each acceptance and purchase of B/As of a single Contract Period pursuant to Section 2.01 or Section 2.07 shall be made ratably by the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders in accordance with the amounts of their Multicurrency Revolving Commitments. The failure of any Multicurrency Revolving Lender to accept any B/A required to be accepted by it shall not relieve any other Multicurrency Revolving Lender of its obligations hereunder, provided that the Multicurrency Revolving Commitments are several and no Multicurrency Revolving Lender shall be responsible for any other Multicurrency Revolving Lender’s failure to accept B/As as required.

(b) The B/As of a single Contract Period accepted and purchased on any date shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of C$1,000,000 and not less than C$5,000,000. The face amount of each B/A shall be C$100,000 or any whole multiple thereof. If any Multicurrency Revolving Lender’s ratable share of the B/As of any Contract Period to be accepted on any date would not be an integral multiple of C$100,000, the face amount of the B/As accepted by such Lender may be increased or reduced to the nearest integral multiple of C$100,000 by the Canadian Agent in its sole discretion. B/As of more than one Contract Period may be outstanding at the same time, provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of five (5) B/A Drawings outstanding.

(c) To request an acceptance and purchase of B/As, a Canadian Borrower shall notify the Canadian Agent of such request by telephone or by telecopy not later than 10:00 a.m., Local Time, one Business Day before the date of such acceptance and purchase. Each such request shall be irrevocable and, if telephonic, shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Canadian Agent of a written request in a form approved by the Canadian Agent and signed by such Canadian Borrower. Each such telephonic and written request shall specify the following information:

(i) the aggregate face amount of the B/As to be accepted and purchased;

(ii) the date of such acceptance and purchase, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) the Contract Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Contract Period” (and which shall in no event end after the Revolving Maturity Date); and

(iv) the location and number of the applicable Canadian Borrower’s account to which any funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.06. If no Contract Period is specified with respect to any requested acceptance and purchase of B/As, then the Canadian Borrower shall be deemed to have selected a Contract Period of 30 days’ duration.

Promptly following receipt of a request in accordance with this paragraph, the Canadian Agent shall advise each Multicurrency Revolving Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of B/As to be accepted and purchased by such Lender.

(d) Each Canadian Borrower hereby appoints each Multicurrency Revolving Lender as its attorney to sign and endorse on its behalf, manually or by facsimile or mechanical signature, as and when deemed necessary by such Lender, blank forms of B/As. It shall be the responsibility of each Multicurrency Revolving Lender to maintain an adequate supply of blank forms of B/As for acceptance under this Agreement. Each Canadian Borrower recognizes and agrees that all B/As signed and/or endorsed on its behalf by any Multicurrency Revolving Lender shall bind such Canadian Borrower as fully and effectually as if manually signed and duly issued by authorized officers of such Canadian Borrower. Each Multicurrency Revolving Lender is hereby authorized to issue such B/As endorsed in blank in such face amounts as may be determined by such Lender, provided that the aggregate face amount thereof is equal to the aggregate face amount of B/As required to be accepted by such Lender. No Multicurrency Revolving Lender shall be liable for any damage, loss or claim arising by reason of any loss or improper use of any such instrument unless such loss or improper use results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Multicurrency Revolving Lender. Each Multicurrency Revolving Lender shall maintain a record with respect to B/As (i) received by it from the Canadian Agent in blank hereunder, (ii) voided by it for any reason, (iii) accepted and purchased by it hereunder and (iv) canceled at their respective maturities. Each Multicurrency Revolving Lender further agrees to retain such records in the manner and for the periods provided in applicable provincial or Federal statutes and regulations of Canada and to provide such records to each Canadian Borrower upon its request and at its expense. Upon request by any Canadian Borrower, a Multicurrency Revolving Lender shall cancel all forms of B/A that have been pre-signed or pre-endorsed on behalf of such Canadian Borrower and that are held by such Multicurrency Revolving Lender and are not required to be issued pursuant to this Agreement.

(e) Drafts of each Canadian Borrower to be accepted as B/As hereunder shall be signed as set forth in paragraph (d) above. Notwithstanding that any Person whose signature appears on any B/A may no longer be an authorized signatory for any of the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders or such Canadian Borrower at the date of issuance of such B/A, such signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes as if such authority had remained in force at the time of such issuance and any such B/A so signed shall be binding on such Canadian Borrower.

(f) Upon acceptance of a B/A by a Multicurrency Revolving Lender, such Multicurrency Revolving Lender shall purchase, or arrange the purchase of, such B/A from the applicable Canadian Borrower at the Discount Rate for such Multicurrency Revolving Lender applicable to such B/A accepted by it and provide to the Canadian Agent the Discount Proceeds for the account of such Canadian Borrower as provided in Section 2.06. The acceptance fee payable by the applicable Canadian Borrower to a Multicurrency Revolving Lender under Section 2.12 in respect of each B/A accepted by such Multicurrency Revolving Lender shall be set off against the Discount Proceeds payable by such Multicurrency Revolving Lender under this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any B/A Drawing resulting from the conversion or continuation of a B/A Drawing or Multicurrency Revolving Loan pursuant to Section 2.07, the net amount that would otherwise be payable to such Canadian Borrower by each Lender pursuant to this paragraph will be applied as provided in Section 2.07(f).

(g) Each Multicurrency Revolving Lender may at any time and from time to time hold, sell, rediscount or otherwise dispose of any or all B/A’s accepted and purchased by it.

(h) Each B/A accepted and purchased hereunder shall mature at the end of the Contract Period applicable thereto.

(i) Each Canadian Borrower waives presentment for payment and any other defense to payment of any amounts due to a Multicurrency Revolving Lender in respect of a B/A accepted and purchased by it pursuant to this Agreement which might exist solely by reason of such B/A being held, at the maturity thereof, by such Multicurrency Revolving Lender in its own right and each Canadian Borrower agrees not to claim any days of grace if such Multicurrency Revolving Lender as holder sues each Canadian Borrower on the B/A for payment of the amounts payable by such Canadian Borrower thereunder. On the specified maturity date of a B/A, or such earlier date as may be required pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, each Canadian Borrower shall pay the Multicurrency Revolving Lender that has accepted and purchased such B/A the full face amount of such B/A, and after such payment such Canadian Borrower shall have no further liability in respect of such B/A and such Lender shall be entitled to all benefits of, and be responsible for all payments due to third parties under, such B/A.

(j) At the option of each Canadian Borrower and any Multicurrency Revolving Lender, B/As under this Agreement to be accepted by that 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 2.20.

(k) If a Multicurrency Revolving Lender is not a chartered bank under the Bank Act (Canada) or if a Multicurrency Revolving Lender notifies the Canadian Agent in writing that it is otherwise unable to accept B/As, such Multicurrency Revolving Lender will, instead of accepting and purchasing B/As, make a Loan (a “B/A Equivalent Loan”) to the applicable Canadian Borrower in the amount and for the same term as the draft which such Multicurrency Revolving Lender would otherwise have been required to accept and purchase hereunder. Each such Multicurrency Revolving Lender will provide to the Canadian Agent the Discount Proceeds of such B/A Equivalent Loan for the account of the applicable Canadian Borrower in the same manner as such Multicurrency Revolving Lender would have provided the Discount Proceeds in respect of the draft which such Multicurrency Revolving Lender would otherwise have been required to accept and purchase hereunder. Each such B/A Equivalent Loan will bear interest at the same rate which would result if such Multicurrency Revolving Lender had accepted (and been paid an acceptance fee) and purchased (on a discounted basis) a B/A for the relevant Contract Period (it being the intention of the parties that each such B/A Equivalent Loan shall have the same economic consequences for the Multicurrency Revolving Lenders and the applicable Canadian Borrower as the B/A which such B/A Equivalent Loan replaces). All such interest shall be paid in advance on the date such B/A Equivalent Loan is made, and will be deducted from the principal amount of such B/A Equivalent Loan in the same manner in which the Discount Proceeds of a B/A would be deducted from the face amount of the B/A. Subject to the repayment requirements of this Agreement, on the last day of the relevant Contract Period for such B/A Equivalent Loan, the applicable Canadian Borrower shall be entitled to convert each such B/A Equivalent Loan into another type of Loan, or to roll over each such B/A Equivalent Loan into another B/A Equivalent Loan, all in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.21. Incremental Commitments. (a) Any Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request Incremental Term Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments in an amount not to exceed the Incremental Amount from one or more Incremental Term Lenders and/or Incremental Revolving Lenders (which may include any existing Lender or any Person not theretofore a Lender) willing to provide such Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Revolving Loans, as the case may be, in their own discretion, provided that each Incremental Term Lender and/or Incremental Revolving Lender shall be subject to the approval of the US Borrower and the Administrative Agent to the extent that such approval would be required under Section 9.04 if the applicable Incremental Term Lender or Incremental Revolving Lender were the proposed assignee of a Term Loan or Revolving Commitment, respectively (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld). Such notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the Incremental Term Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of US$25,000,000 and a minimum amount of US$25,000,000 or equal to the remaining Incremental Amount) and (ii) the date on which such Incremental Term Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments are requested to become effective (the “Increased Amount Date”).

(b) Each Borrower and each Incremental Term Lender and/or Incremental Revolving Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Term Commitment of such Incremental Term Lender and/or Incremental Revolving Commitment of such Incremental Revolving Lender and the security and Guarantees therefor (the “Incremental Documents”). Each Incremental Assumption Agreement shall specify the terms of the Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Revolving Loans to be made thereunder, provided that (i) the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Loans shall rank pari passu or junior in right of payment and of security with the Term Loans, and Revolving Loans and (except as to pricing and amortization) shall have the same terms as the Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as applicable, (ii) the maturity date of any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Loans shall be no earlier than the date that is six months after the Existing Incremental Term Maturity Date, (iii) the weighted–average life to maturity of any Incremental Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining weighted–average life to maturity of any of the Term Loans as of the date of the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement and (iv) no interest rate margin (which shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue discounts payable to all Incremental Term Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans) in respect of any Incremental Term Loan may exceed any Applicable Rate applicable to the Term Loans (which shall, for such purposes only, be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue discounts payable to all Term Lenders providing Term Loans) by more than 0.25% (it being understood that any such increase may take the form of original issue discount, with original issue discount being equated to the interest rates in a manner reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent based on an assumed four-year life to maturity), without increasing such Applicable Rate so that no interest rate margin in respect of such Incremental Term Loans (which shall be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue discount payable to all Incremental Term Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans), is more than 0.25% higher than any Applicable Rate applicable to the Term Loans (which shall, for such purposes only, be deemed to include all upfront or similar fees or original issue discount payable to all Term Lenders providing the Term Loans). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Assumption Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Assumption Agreement, this Agreement shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Term Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments evidenced thereby as provided for in Section 9.04(e). Any such deemed amendment may be memorialized in writing by the Administrative Agent and furnished to the other parties hereto.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Term Commitment or Incremental Revolving Commitment shall become effective under this Section 2.21 unless (i) on the date of such effectiveness, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 4.02 shall be satisfied and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received the applicable Incremental Documents and all legal opinions and other documents related thereto and (iii) immediately before and after giving pro forma effect to such Incremental Term Commitment and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments and the Loans to be made thereunder and the application of the proceeds therefrom, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing (including any Default under Section 6.13, 6.14, 6.15 or 6.16).

(d) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that all Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Revolving Loans, when originally made, are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Term Loans or Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis, and the Borrowers agree that Section 2.16 shall apply to any conversion of Eurocurrency Loans to ABR Loans or Canadian Base Rate Loans reasonably required by the Administrative Agent to effect the foregoing.

SECTION 2.22. Additional Reserve Costs. (a) If and so long as any Lender is required under regulations of the Bank of England or the Financial Services Authority of the United Kingdom to make special deposits with the Bank of England, to maintain reserve asset ratios or to pay fees, in each case in respect of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans in any Foreign Currency and pursuant to such regulations, such Lender may require the applicable Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on each of such Loans, additional interest on such Loan at a rate per annum equal to the Mandatory Costs Rate calculated in accordance with the formula and in the manner set forth in Exhibit G hereto.

(b) If and so long as any Lender is required to comply with reserve assets, liquidity, cash margin or other requirements of any monetary or other authority (including any such requirement imposed by the European Central Bank or the European System of Central Banks, but excluding requirements reflected in the Statutory Reserve Rate or the Mandatory Costs Rate) in respect of any of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans in any Foreign Currency, such Lender may require the applicable Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on each of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans subject to such requirements, additional interest on such Loan at a rate per annum specified by such Lender to be the cost to such Lender of complying with such requirements in relation to such Loan.

(c) A certificate of the applicable Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the additional interest owed pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) above of this Section 2.22 shall be delivered to the applicable Borrower (with a copy to the Applicable Agent) at least five Business Days before each date on which interest is payable for the relevant Loan and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Such additional interest so notified to the applicable Borrower by such Lender shall be payable to the Applicable Agent for the account of such Lender on each date on which interest is payable for such Loan.

SECTION 2.23. Foreign Borrowers. On or after the Effective Date, the US Borrower may deliver to the Administrative Agent a Foreign Borrower Agreement executed by a Wholly Owned Foreign Subsidiary and the US Borrower, and after (i) ten Business Days have elapsed after such delivery and (ii) receipt by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent of such documentation and other information reasonably requested by the Lenders or the Administrative Agent for purposes of complying with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations, such Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be a Foreign Borrower and a party to this Agreement, provided that each Foreign Borrower shall also be a Foreign Guarantor. Upon the execution by the US Borrower and a Foreign Borrower and delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Foreign Borrower Termination with respect to such Foreign Borrower, such Foreign Borrower shall cease to be a Foreign Borrower and a party to this Agreement, provided that no Foreign Borrower Termination will become effective as to any Foreign Borrower (other than to terminate such Foreign Borrower’s right to make further Borrowings under this Agreement) at a time when any Loan to, B/A on behalf of, or Letter of Credit issued to such Foreign Borrower shall be outstanding hereunder. Promptly following receipt of any Foreign Borrower Agreement or Foreign Borrower Termination, the Administrative Agent shall send a copy thereof to each Lender.

ARTICLE III

Such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and results of operations, changes in stockholder’s equity and cash flows of Parent and its consolidated subsidiaries as of such dates and for such periods in accordance with GAAP, subject to year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes in the case of the statements referred to in clause (iii) above.

(b) Except as disclosed in the financial statements referred to above or the notes thereto or in the Information Memorandum and except for the Disclosed Matters, after giving effect to the Transactions, none of Parent, the Borrowers or the Subsidiaries has, as of the Effective Date, any material contingent liabilities, unusual long-term commitments or unrealized losses.

(c) Since December 31, 2006, there has been no material adverse change in the business, assets, operations, properties, condition (financial or otherwise), liabilities (including contingent liabilities), material agreements or prospects of Parent, the Borrowers and the other Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

SECTION 3.05. Properties. (a) Each of Parent, the Borrowers and the other Subsidiaries has good title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its real and personal property material to its business, except for (i) minor defects in title that do not interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such properties for their intended purposes and (ii) Liens permitted by Section 6.02.

(b) Each of Parent, the Borrowers and the other Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property material to its business, and the use thereof by Parent, the Borrowers and the other Subsidiaries does not infringe upon the rights of any other Person.

SECTION 3.06. Litigation and Environmental Matters. (a) There are no actions, suits or proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of Parent or the Borrowers, threatened against or affecting Parent, any Borrower or any other subsidiary of Parent (i) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect (other than the Disclosed Matters) or (ii) that involve any of the Loan Documents or the Transactions.

(b) Except for the Disclosed Matters and except with respect to any other matters that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, none of Parent, the Borrowers and the other subsidiaries of Parent (i) has failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any permit, license or other approval required under any Environmental Law, (ii) has become subject to any Environmental Liability, (iii) has received notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability or (iv) knows of any basis for any Environmental Liability.

(c) Since the date of this Agreement, there has been no change in the status of the Disclosed Matters that, individually or in the aggregate, has resulted in, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.07. Compliance with Laws and Agreements. Each of Parent, the Borrowers and the other subsidiaries of Parent is in compliance with all laws, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it or its property and all indentures, agreements and other instruments binding upon it or its property, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No Default has occurred and is continuing.

SECTION 3.08. Investment and Holding Company Status. None of Parent, the Borrowers and the other Subsidiaries is (a) an “investment company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940 or (b) a “holding company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935.

SECTION 3.09. Taxes. Each of Parent, the Borrowers and the other subsidiaries of Parent (after giving effect to all applicable granted extensions) has timely filed or caused to be filed all Tax returns and reports required to have been filed and has paid or caused to be paid all Taxes required to have been paid by it before the same became delinquent, except (a) any Taxes that are being contested in good faith and, if necessary, by appropriate proceedings and for which Parent, such Borrower or such subsidiary of Parent, as applicable, has set aside on its books adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP or (b) to the extent that the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.10. ERISA. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The present value of all accumulated benefit obligations under each Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the assets of such Plan by an amount that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and the present value of all accumulated benefit obligations of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans by an amount that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.11. Disclosure. Parent and the Borrowers have disclosed to the Lenders all agreements, instruments and corporate or other restrictions to which Parent, any Borrower or any other Subsidiary is subject, and all other matters known to any of them, that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Information Memorandum nor any of the other reports, financial statements, certificates or other information furnished by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or any other Loan Document delivered hereunder or thereunder (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished) contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, provided that with respect to projected financial information, Parent and the Borrowers represent only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that are reasonable.

SECTION 3.12. Subsidiaries and Joint Ventures. As of the Effective Date, Parent does not have any subsidiaries other than the subsidiaries set forth on Schedule 3.12 or Immaterial Subsidiaries. As of the Effective Date, neither Parent nor any subsidiary of Parent holds any Equity Interest in any joint venture other than those set forth on Schedule 3.12 other than Immaterial Subsidiaries. Schedule 3.12 sets forth as of the Effective Date the name of, and the ownership interest of Parent in (i) each subsidiary of Parent and (ii) each joint venture in which Parent, any Borrower or any other subsidiary of Parent holds an Equity Interest, in each case as of the Effective Date. Schedule 3.12 sets forth as of the Effective Date each Subsidiary that is a Material Subsidiary and each subsidiary of Parent that is an Excluded Subsidiary (and specifies whether such entities are Material Subsidiaries or Excluded Subsidiaries), other than Immaterial Subsidiaries.

SECTION 3.13. Insurance. Parent, the Borrowers and the other Subsidiaries maintain, in force, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies, and have paid all premiums and costs that are due and payable and are related to, insurance coverages in such amounts (with no materially greater risk retention) and against such risks under similar circumstances as are reasonably determined by the management of Parent, the Borrowers and the other Subsidiaries to be sufficient in accordance with the usual and customary practices of companies of established repute engaged in the same or similar lines of business as Parent, the Borrowers and the other Subsidiaries and operating in the same or similar locations, except to the extent reasonable self insurance meeting the same standards is maintained with respect to such risks.

SECTION 3.14. Labor Matters. As of the Effective Date, there are no strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against Parent, any Borrower or any other subsidiary of Parent pending or, to the knowledge of Parent or any Borrower, overtly threatened in writing to Parent, any Borrower or any other subsidiary of Parent. To the best knowledge of Parent or any Borrower after making reasonable due inquiry, the hours worked by and payments made to employees of Parent, the Borrowers and the other subsidiaries of Parent have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Federal, state, local or foreign law dealing with such matters. All payments due from Parent, any Borrower or any other subsidiary of Parent, or for which any claim made against Parent, any Borrower or any other subsidiary of Parent, which Parent or any Borrower reasonably and in good faith believes it or any other subsidiary of Parent is liable, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of Parent, such Borrower or such subsidiary of Parent. The consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which Parent, any Borrower or any other subsidiary of Parent is bound.

SECTION 3.15. Solvency. After giving effect to the application of the proceeds of all Loans, (a) the fair market value of the assets of each Loan Party, at a fair valuation, will exceed its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise; (b) the present fair saleable value of the property of each Loan Party will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of its debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured; (c) each Loan Party will be able to pay its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured; and (d) each Loan Party will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the business in which it is engaged as such business is currently conducted and is proposed to be conducted.

SECTION 3.16. Status of Obligations. The Obligations constitute Senior Indebtedness (and any other similar term defining Senior Indebtedness) under each indenture or other agreement governing any Indebtedness of Parent, any Borrower or any other Subsidiary.

SECTION 3.17. Collateral Matters. (a) Each of the Security Documents creates (or will create, as the case may be), as security for the obligations purported to be secured thereby, subject to the provisions hereof and thereof, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in all the Collateral subject to such Security Document (or comparable interest under foreign law in the case of foreign Collateral) and each such Security Document shall constitute either (a) a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all of the Collateral subject to such Security Document (except for Collateral for which the absence or failure of the Lien on such Collateral would not constitute an Event of Default under Section 7.01(m)) or (b) a floating charge, fixed charge or security interest, as specified in the applicable Security Document, with respect to all of the Collateral subject to such Security Document, in each case in favor of the relevant Collateral Agent and subject to no other Liens except as may be expressly permitted under Section 6.02. The pledgor or assignor, as the case may be, under each Security Document has good title to all Collateral subject thereto free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Encumbrances and such additional Liens as may be expressly permitted under Section 6.02. No filings or recordings are required in order to perfect the security interests created under the Security Documents except, with respect to the Domestic Loan Parties, for filings or recordings listed on Schedule 3.17, all of which shall have been made on or prior to the Effective Date except as otherwise expressly provided in Schedule 3.17.

(b) When the Domestic Security Agreement is filed in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, the security interest created thereunder shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Domestic Loan Parties in the Intellectual Property (as defined in such Security Agreement) in which a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registering a security agreement, financing statement or analogous document in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person, other than with respect to the rights of Persons pursuant to Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.02 (it being understood that subsequent recordings in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office may be necessary to perfect a lien on registered trademarks, trademark applications and copyrights acquired by the Domestic Credit Parties after the date hereof).

(c) The Collateral and Guarantee Requirement is satisfied.

SECTION 3.18. Immunities, Etc. Each Borrower is subject to civil and commercial law with respect to its obligations under this Agreement, and the execution, delivery and performance by it of this Agreement and each other Loan Document constitutes and will constitute private and commercial acts rather than public or governmental acts. Each Borrower has validly given its consent to be sued in respect of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Borrower has waived every immunity (sovereign or otherwise) to which it or any of its properties would otherwise be entitled from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from jurisdiction of any court or from setoff or any legal process (whether service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation in respect of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The waiver by each Borrower described in the immediately preceding sentence is legal, valid and binding on such Borrower.

SECTION 7.02. CAM. (a) On the CAM Exchange Date, (i) the Commitments shall automatically and without further act be terminated as provided in this Article VII, (ii) the Lenders shall automatically and without further act be deemed to have exchanged interests in the Designated Obligations such that, in lieu of the interests of each Lender in the Designated Obligations under each Tranche in which it shall participate as of such date, such Lender shall own an interest equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage in the Designated Obligations under each of the Tranches (such exchange, the “CAM Exchange”) and (iii) simultaneously with the deemed exchange of interests pursuant to clause (ii) above, the interests in the Designated Obligations to be received in such deemed exchange shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted into the US Dollar Equivalent thereof, determined using the Exchange Rate calculated as of such date, of such amount and on and after such date all amounts accruing and owed to the Lenders in respect of such Designated Obligations shall accrue and be payable in US Dollars at the rate otherwise applicable hereunder. It is understood and agreed that Lenders holding interests in B/As on the CAM Exchange Date shall discharge the obligations to fund such B/As at maturity in exchange for the interests acquired by such Lenders in funded Loans in the CAM Exchange. Each Lender, each Person acquiring a participation from any Lender as contemplated by Section 9.04, and each Borrower hereby consents and agrees to the CAM Exchange. Each of Parent, the Borrowers and the Lenders agrees from time to time to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent or the Applicable Agent all such promissory notes and other instruments and documents as the Administrative Agent or such Applicable Agent shall reasonably request to evidence and confirm the respective interests and obligations of the Lenders after giving effect to the CAM Exchange, and each Lender agrees to surrender any promissory notes originally received by it in connection with its Loans hereunder to the Administrative Agent against delivery of any promissory notes so executed and delivered, provided that the failure of Parent or any Borrower to execute or deliver or of any Lender to accept any such promissory note, instrument or document shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the CAM Exchange.

(b) As a result of the CAM Exchange, on and after the CAM Exchange Date, (i) each payment received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of the Designated Obligations shall be distributed to the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective CAM Percentages (to be redetermined as of each such date of payment or distribution to the extent required by the next paragraph below) and (ii) Section 2.17(e) shall not apply with respect to any Taxes required to be withheld or deducted by a Borrower from or in respect of payments hereunder to any Lender or the Administrative Agent that exceed the Taxes such Borrower would have otherwise been required to withhold or deduct from or in respect of payments to such Lender or Administrative Agent had such CAM Exchange not occurred.

(c) In the event that, on or after the CAM Exchange Date, the aggregate amount of the Designated Obligations shall change as a result of the making of a LC Disbursement by an Issuing Bank that is not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower, then (i) each Revolving Lender (determined without giving effect to the CAM Exchange) shall, in accordance with Section 2.05(d), promptly purchase from the applicable Issuing Bank a participation in such LC Disbursement in the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such LC Disbursement (without giving effect to the CAM Exchange) and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall redetermine the CAM Percentages after giving effect to such disbursement and the making of such LC Disbursement and the purchase of participations therein by the applicable Revolving Lenders and the Lenders shall automatically and without further act be deemed to have exchanged interests in the Designated Obligations such that each Lender shall own an interest equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage in the Designated Obligations under each of the Tranches (and the interests in the Designated Obligations to be received in such deemed exchange shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted into the US Dollar Equivalent of such amount in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 7.02), and (iii) in the event distributions shall have been made in accordance with clause (i) of the preceding paragraph, the Lenders shall make such payments to one another as shall be necessary in order that the amounts received by them shall be equal to the amounts they would have received had each such disbursement and LC Disbursement been outstanding on the CAM Exchange Date. Each such redetermination shall be binding on each of the Lenders and their successors and assigns and shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by a Borrower or a Lender, and no such Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent.

Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Each Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent. Such Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs and the provisions of Section 9.03 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Agents and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided in this paragraph, any Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and Parent. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right (in consultation with Parent) to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may (in consultation with Parent) on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Agent.

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

The institution named as Syndication Agent in the heading of this Agreement shall not, in its capacity as such, have any duties or responsibilities of any kind under this Agreement.

(b) Notices and other communications among the Applicable Agents and the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices pursuant to Article II unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender.

(c) Any party hereto may change its address or telecopy number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto.

SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan, acceptance of a B/A or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Parent, the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or by Parent, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent with the written consent of the Required Lenders, provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or any amount payable in respect of B/As or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable to any Lender hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or B/A (including any scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Term Loan under Section 2.10) or any LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, this clause (iii) shall not apply to waivers, amendments or modifications of Section 2.11(c), (iv) waive or change Section 2.18(b) or (c) or any other provision providing for the pro rata nature of sharing payments among the Lenders in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, (v) waive or change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of the term “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class or Tranche) required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (or Lender of such Class or Tranche, as the case may be), (vi) release Parent, any Borrower or any other Subsidiary Loan Party from its Guarantee under the Security Documents (except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents), or limit its liability in respect of such Guarantee, without the written consent of each Lender, (vii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents (except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents), without the written consent of each Lender, (viii) waive or change any provision of Section 7.02 without the written consent of each Lender or (ix) waive or change any provision of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments due to Lenders under any Class or Tranche differently from those of Lenders under any other Class or Tranche without the written consent of Lenders holding a majority in interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of each adversely affected Class or Tranche, and provided further that (A) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of any Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of such Agent, such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, and (B) with respect to any waiver, amendment or modification that by its terms is limited in effect to the rights or duties of Lenders under one or more (but less than all) of the Classes and Tranches, such waiver, amendment or modification may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Parent, the Borrowers and the requisite percentage in interest of Lenders under each affected Class or Tranche.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, technical and conforming modifications to the Loan Documents may be made with the consent of the Borrowers to the extent necessary to integrate any Incremental Term Commitments or Incremental Revolving Commitments on substantially the same basis as the Term Loans or Revolving Facility Loans, as applicable.

SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents and their Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Agents, in connection with the arrangement and the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made, the B/As accepted or purchased or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans, B/As or Letters of Credit.

(b) The Borrowers shall indemnify the Agents, the Issuing Banks and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the arrangement and the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan, B/A or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by Parent, the Borrowers or any of the other Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to Parent, the Borrowers or any of the other Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by Parent or any Affiliate thereof, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealed judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee or such Indemnitee’s violation of any applicable law or breach of its obligations under the Loan Documents.

(c) To the extent that any Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to any Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Agent, such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Agent, such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the total Revolving Exposures, outstanding Term Loans, outstanding Incremental Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, none of Parent and the Borrowers shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan, any B/A or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) (i)Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:

(A) the US Borrower, provided that no consent of the US Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee;

(B) the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of any Term Loan, Existing Incremental Term Loan or Incremental Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and

(C) in the case of any assignment of all or a portion of a Revolving Commitment or any Lender’s obligations in respect of its LC Exposure or Swingline Exposure, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lenders.

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment 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 the US Dollar Equivalent of US$5,000,000 or, in the case of a Term Loan, Existing Incremental Term Loan, Incremental Term Commitment or Incremental Term Loan, US$1,000,000 unless each of the US Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents, provided that no such consent of the US Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing:

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of US$3,500; and

(D) the 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, its Subsidiaries and its 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.

For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning:

“Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender, provided that with respect to an assignment of any Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments, an Approved Fund must be a Person that engages in making Loans of the type and nature of the applicable Revolving Loans and otherwise is able to perform each of the obligations of a Revolving Lender with respect to its applicable Revolving Commitments, in each case, in accordance with the applicable provisions hereof.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans, amounts in respect of B/As and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c) (i)Any Lender may, without the consent of any Borrower, any Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it), provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that pertains to the participation it sold to such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, Parent and the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section  9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the US Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless the US Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.17(e) as though it were a Lender.

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest, provided that (i) no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto, (ii) all costs, fees and expenses in connection with any such pledge or assignment shall be for the sole account of such Lender and (iii) the reassignment back to such Lender, free of any interests of such assignee, shall be for the sole account of such Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Bank”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”) of such Granting Bank, identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Bank to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, the option to provide to the Borrowers all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Bank would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.01 or the option to participate in any Letter of Credit, as the case may be, provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment to make any Loan by any SPC or to participate in any Letter of Credit and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, or to participate in such Letter of Credit the Granting Bank shall be obligated to make such Loan or participate in such Letter of Credit pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC or the participation by such SPC in any Letter of Credit shall be deemed to utilize the Commitment of the Granting Bank to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by the Granting Bank or such participation in a Letter of Credit were paid or taken, as the case may be by such Granting Bank. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any payment under this Agreement for which a Lender would otherwise be liable, for so long as, and to the extent, the related Granting Bank makes such payment. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or similar proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans or participations in any Letters of Credit to its Granting Bank or to any financial institutions (if consented to by the Borrowers and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit facilities to or for the account of such SPC to fund the Loans made by such SPC or to support the securities (if any) issued by such SPC to fund such Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans or participations in any Letters of Credit (but not relating to any Borrower, except with Parent’s consent) to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans, acceptance and purchase or any B/As and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any B/A or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to any Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the Required Lenders (as such term is defined in the Amended Original Credit Agreement), Parent and the Borrowers, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of all Lenders and the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or internet transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of a Borrower against any of and all the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

(b) Each of Parent and the Borrowers hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final, non-appealed judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that Parent, any Borrower, any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any other party hereto or their properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each of Parent and the Borrowers hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. Each Foreign Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the US Borrower as its agent for service of process in respect of this Agreement and any Loan Document, provided that such appointment will not affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process on any Foreign Borrower in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 9.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

SECTION 9.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 9.12. Confidentiality. (a) Each of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and will be instructed (and will agree) to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to Parent, any Borrower or any other Subsidiary and its obligations hereunder, (g) upon conditions satisfactory to Parent, with the consent of Parent or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Parent or a Borrower. For the purposes of this Section, the term “Information” means all information received from Parent or any Borrower relating to Parent or the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates, or their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Parent or a Borrower, provided that in the case of information received from Parent or any Borrower after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

(b) EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN SECTION 9.12(a) FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING PARENT, ITS SUBSIDIARIES AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS. ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE PARENT OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE PARENT, ITS SUBSIDIARIES AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWER AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW.

SECTION 9.13. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law, including the Criminal Code (Canada) (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, including the Criminal Code (Canada), the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

SECTION 9.14. Release of Liens and Guarantees. A Subsidiary Loan Party shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents and all Liens in the Collateral of such Subsidiary Loan Party shall be automatically released and all provisions of the Loan Documents shall cease to apply to such Subsidiary Loan Party upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan Party ceases to be a Subsidiary, provided that if so required by this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction and the terms of such consent did not provide otherwise. Upon any sale or other transfer by any Subsidiary Loan Party (other than to Parent or any other Subsidiary) of any Collateral that is permitted under any Loan Document, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the Lien granted under any Loan Document in any Collateral pursuant to Section 9.02 of this Agreement, the Lien on such Collateral shall be automatically released. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Subsidiary Loan Party, at such Subsidiary Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Subsidiary Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 9.15. Conversion of Currencies. (a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto (including any Foreign Borrower) agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(b) The obligations of each Borrower in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the Borrowers contained in this Section 9.15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

SECTION 9.16. USA Patriot Act Notice. Each of the Lenders and the Agents (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or such Agent, as applicable, to identify each Borrower in accordance with the Act.

SECTION 9.17. Effectiveness of Amendment and Restatement; No Novation. (a) Until this Agreement becomes effective in accordance with the terms hereof, the Amended Original Credit Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected hereby. On and after the Effective Date, all obligations of Parent and the Borrowers under the Amended Original Credit Agreement shall become obligations of Parent and the Borrowers hereunder, secured by the Security Documents, and the provisions of the Amended Original Credit Agreement shall be superseded by the provisions hereof.

(b) This Agreement shall not extinguish the Loans or any Letters of Credit outstanding under the Amended Original Credit Agreement. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a substitution or novation of the Loans outstanding under the Amended Original Credit Agreement, which shall remain outstanding after the Effective Date as modified hereby. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 of the Amended Original Credit Agreement as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date will continue to be effective as to all matters arising out of or in any way related to facts or events existing or occurring prior to the Effective Date.

(c) Notwithstanding the occurrence of the Effective Date, the provisions of Sections 6.08(a)(xi), (xii) and (xiv) shall not become effective until the Preferred Stock has been redeemed in full or any restrictions to the effectiveness of such provisions in the documents governing the Preferred Stock have been eliminated or waived.

(d) By delivery of a counterpart signature page hereto, each Lender under the Amended Original Credit Agreement indicates its approval of the amendment and restatement of the Amended Original Credit Agreement contemplated hereby, and of the amendments to the other Loan Documents occurring in connection herewith.
