          IV.      Reaffirmation of Representations and Warranties. To induce the Combined Lenders and the Global Administrative Agent to enter into this Amendment, the U.S. Borrower and the Canadian Borrower hereby reaffirm, as of the date hereof, the following:
          (i)      The representations and warranties of each Loan Party (as such term is defined in the U.S. Credit Agreement and the Canadian Credit Agreement, and including, without limitation, Canadian Newco, collectively, the “Combined Loan Parties”) set forth in the Combined Loan Documents to which it is a party are true and correct on and as of the date hereof (or, if stated to have been made expressly as of an earlier date, were true and correct in all material respects as of such date and, except to

5


 

the extent waived in writing by the Combined Lenders, the Required Lenders, the Majority Lenders, the U.S. Lenders or the U.S. Required Lenders, as applicable).
          (ii)      Each of the Combined Loan Parties (a) is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company duly incorporated or organized (as applicable), validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization, (b) has all corporate, partnership or limited liability company power (as applicable) and all material governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals required to carry on its businesses as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted, and (c) is duly qualified to transact business as a foreign corporation, partnership or limited liability company in each jurisdiction where a failure to be so qualified would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
          (iii)      The execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment and the other Combined Loan Documents by each Combined Loan Party (to the extent each Combined Loan Party is a party to this Agreement and such Combined Loan Documents) (a) are within such Combined Loan Party’s corporate powers, (b) when executed will be duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, (c) require no action by or in respect of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority (other than (i) actions or filings pursuant to the Exchange Act and (ii) actions or filings that have been taken or made and are in full force and effect) and (d) do not contravene, or constitute a default under, any provision of applicable Governmental Rule (including, without limitation, Regulation U) or of the articles or certificate of incorporation, bylaws, regulations, partnership agreement or comparable charter documents of any Combined Loan Party or of any agreement, judgment, injunction, order, decree or other instrument binding upon any Combined Loan Party or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any Borrowing Base Property or Collateral other than the Liens securing the Combined Obligations.
          (iv)      This Amendment and each other Combined Loan Document constitutes, or when executed and delivered will constitute, valid and binding obligations of each Combined Loan Party which is a party thereto, enforceable against each such Combined Loan Party which executes the same in accordance with its terms except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar Governmental Rules affecting creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) equitable principles of general applicability (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings at law or in equity).
          (v)      Neither a Default nor an Event of Default has occurred and will exist under either Combined Credit Agreement after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Amendment or the other Combined Loan Documents. Neither the U.S. Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries nor the Canadian Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is in default under, nor has any event or circumstance occurred which, but for the expiration of any applicable grace period or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a default under, any Material Agreement to which the U.S. Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the Canadian Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which the U.S. Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the Canadian Borrower or any of its

6


 

Subsidiaries is bound which default would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The U.S. Borrower is in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Article VI of the U.S. Credit Agreement.
          (vi)      No event or events have occurred since December 31, 2006 which individually or in the aggregate would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
          V.      Defined Terms. Terms used herein when defined in the U.S. Credit Agreement (including, to the extent applicable, after giving effect to this Amendment) shall have the same meanings herein unless the context otherwise requires.
          VI.      Reaffirmation of Combined Credit Agreements. This Amendment shall be deemed to be an amendment to the Combined Credit Agreements, and the Combined Credit Agreements, as amended hereby, are hereby ratified, approved and confirmed in each and every respect. All references to the Combined Credit Agreements herein and in any other document, instrument, agreement or writing shall hereafter be deemed to refer to the Combined Credit Agreements as amended hereby.
          VII.      Governing Law. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS.
          NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING SENTENCE AND AFTER GIVING EFFECT TO THE TEXTUAL AMENDMENTS CONTAINED IN SECTIONS I AND II OF THIS AMENDMENT, (i) THE U.S. CREDIT AGREEMENT (AS AMENDED HEREBY) SHALL CONTINUE TO BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW SPECIFIED IN SECTION 10.9(a) OF THE U.S. CREDIT AGREEMENT, AND (ii) THE CANADIAN CREDIT AGREEMENT (AS AMENDED HEREBY) SHALL CONTINUE TO BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW SPECIFIED IN SECTION 10.9(a) OF THE CANADIAN CREDIT AGREEMENT.
          VIII.      Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Amendment 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.
          IX.      Counterparts. This Amendment 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. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by telecopy (or other electronic transmission acceptable to the Global Administrative Agent) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment.
          X.      Headings. Article and Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Amendment and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Amendment.

7


 

          XI.      Successors and Assigns. This Amendment 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 an Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that neither the U.S. Borrower nor the Canadian Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Global Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Combined Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by either the U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower without such consent shall be null and void).
          XII.      No Oral Agreements. THIS AMENDMENT, THE COMBINED CREDIT AGREEMENTS, AS AMENDED HEREBY, AND THE OTHER COMBINED LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN AND AMONG THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND THEREOF AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES.
          XIII.      Loan Document. This Amendment constitutes a “Loan Document,” a “Canadian Loan Document” and a “Combined Loan Document” under and as defined in the U.S. Credit Agreement, and a “Loan Document,” a “U.S. Loan Document” and a “Combined Loan Document” under and as defined in the Canadian Credit Agreement.
