The Additional Intercreditor Agreement shall be in a form customary for transactions of the type contemplated thereby and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower.

Level	Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio	Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage
1	Greater than or equal to 4.00:1.00	0.75%
2	Less than 4.00:1.00	0.50%

; provided, however, that if Holdings fails to deliver any Section 9.01 Financials (accompanied by the officer’s certificate required to be delivered pursuant to Section 9.01(f) showing the applicable Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio on the relevant Test Date) on or prior to the respective date required by Section 9.01(b) or (c), as the case may be, then Level 1 commitment fee percentage shall apply until such time, if any, as such Section 9.01 Financials and the accompanying officer’s certificate have been delivered showing the commitment fee percentage for the respective Margin Reduction Period is at Level 2 (it being understood that, in the case of any late delivery of Section 9.01 Financials and the related officer’s certificate as so required, any reduction in the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage shall apply only from and after the date of the delivery of the complying Section 9.01 Financials and related officer’s certificate). The Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage so determined shall apply, except as set forth in the immediately succeeding sentence, from the Start Date of the relevant Margin Reduction Period to and including the corresponding End Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this definition, (i) for the period from the Initial Borrowing Date to the date of the delivery of the Section 9.01 Financials in respect of Holdings’ first fiscal quarter ending at least six months after the Initial Borrowing Date, the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage shall be maintained at Level 1 above and (ii) from and after the date of any Extension, with respect to any Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans and Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans, the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage shall be the applicable percentage(s) per annum specified for such Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans and Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans in the relevant Extension Amendment.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in the definition or elsewhere in this Agreement, if it is subsequently determined that the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio set forth in any officer’s certificate delivered pursuant to Section 9.01(f) is inaccurate for any reason and the result thereof is that the Lenders received fees for any period based on an Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage that is less than that which would have been applicable had the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio been accurately determined, then, for all purposes of this Agreement, the “Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage” for any day occurring within the period covered by such officer’s certificate shall retroactively be deemed to be the relevant percentage as based upon the accurately determined Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio for such period, and any shortfall in fees theretofor paid by the Borrower for the relevant period pursuant to Section 4.01(a) as a result of the miscalculation of the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be (and shall be) due and payable under Section 4.01(a), as applicable, at the time the fees for such period were required to be paid pursuant to said Section (and shall remain due and payable until paid in full, together with all amounts owing under Section 2.08(c), in accordance with the terms of this Agreement).

Each determination of the “Applicable Increased Term Loan Spread” shall be made by Administrative Agent taking into account the relevant factors outlined in the proviso to subclause (II) of clause (ix) of Section 2.15(a) and shall be conclusive and binding on all Lenders absent manifest error.

“Applicable Margin” shall mean in respect of (i) B Term Loans and C Term Loans maintained as (A) Base Rate Loans, a rate per annum equal to 2.75% and (B) LIBO Rate Loans, a rate per annum equal to 3.75% and (ii) Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans, for any Margin Reduction Period, from and after any Start Date to and including the corresponding End Date, a rate per annum equal to the respective percentage per annum set forth below under the respective Type and Tranche of Loans and opposite the respective Level (i.e., Xxxxx 0, Xxxxx 0, or Xxxxx 0, as the case may be) indicated to have been achieved on the applicable Test Date for such Start Date (as shown in the respective officer’s certificate delivered pursuant to Section 9.01(f) or the first proviso below):


Level	Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio	Swingline Loans and Revolving Loans maintained as Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans	Revolving Loans maintained as LIBO Rate Loans or as Bankers’ Acceptance Loans
1	Greater than or equal to 4.00:1.00	2.75%	3.75%
2	Greater than or equal to 3.50:1.00 but less than 4.00:1.00	2.50%	3.50%

; provided, however, that if Holdings fails to deliver any Section 9.01 Financials (accompanied by the officer’s certificate required to be delivered pursuant to Section 9.01(f) showing the applicable Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio on the relevant Test Date) on or prior to the respective date required by Section 9.01(b) or (c), as the case may be, then Level 1 pricing shall apply until such time, if any, as such Section 9.01 Financials and the accompanying officer’s certificate have been delivered showing the pricing for the respective Margin Reduction Period is at a Level below Level 1 (it being understood that, in the case of any late delivery of Section 9.01 Financials and the related officer’s certificate as so required, any reduction in the Applicable Margin shall apply only from and after the date of the delivery of the complying Section 9.01 Financials and related officer’s certificate); provided, further, (i) at all times when any Default or Event of Default is in existence, Level 1 pricing shall apply to all Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans and (ii) that for the period from the Initial Borrowing Date to the date of the delivery of the Section 9.01 Financials in respect of Holdings’ first fiscal quarter ending at least six months after the Initial Borrowing Date, Level 1 pricing shall apply to all Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans.

-4-

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Applicable Margin in respect of Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans and Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans of any Extension Series shall be the applicable percentages per annum provided pursuant to the relevant Extension Amendment, as the case may be, and (ii) the Applicable Margin of certain Revolving Loans shall be increased as, and to the extent, necessary to comply with the provisions of Section 2.14.

The Applicable Margins for any Tranche of Incremental Term Loans shall be (i) in the case of Incremental Term Loans added to an existing Tranche, the same as the Applicable Margins for such existing Tranche, and (ii) otherwise, as specified in the respective Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement; provided that (x) on and after the date of the most recent incurrence of any Tranche of Incremental Term Loans which gives rise to a determination of a new Applicable Increased Term Loan Spread, the Applicable Margins for any Tranche of Term Loans (other than such new Tranche of Incremental Term Loans) shall be the higher of (a) the Applicable Increased Term Loan Spread for such Tranche of Term Loans and (b) the Applicable Margin for such Type and Tranche of Term Loans as otherwise determined above in the absence of this clause (x); (y) the Applicable Margin in respect of Extended Term Loans of any Extension Series shall be the applicable percentages per annum provided pursuant to the relevant Extension Amendment, as the case may be; and (z) the Applicable Margin of certain Term Loans shall be increased as, and to the extent, necessary to comply with the provisions of Section 2.14.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in the definition or elsewhere in this Agreement, if it is subsequently determined that the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio set forth in any officer’s certificate delivered pursuant to Section 9.01(f) is inaccurate for any reason and the result thereof is that the Lenders received interest for any period based on an Applicable Margin that is less than that which would have been applicable had the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio been accurately determined, then, for all purposes of this Agreement, the “Applicable Margin” for any day occurring within the period covered by such officer’s certificate shall retroactively be deemed to be the relevant percentage as based upon the accurately determined Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio for such period, and any shortfall in fees theretofor paid by the Borrower for the relevant period pursuant to Section 4.01(a) as a result of the miscalculation of the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be (and shall be) due and payable under Section 4.01(a), as applicable, at the time the fees for such period were required to be paid pursuant to said Section (and shall remain due and payable until paid in full, together with all amounts owing under Section 2.08(c), in accordance with the terms of this Agreement).

“Applicable Prepayment Percentage” shall mean, at any time, 50%; provided that, so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, if at any time the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio is (i) less than 4.00:1.00 (as set forth in an officer’s certificate delivered pursuant to Section 9.01(f) for the fiscal quarter or fiscal year then last ended), the Applicable Prepayment Percentage shall instead be 25% and (ii) less than 3.00:1.00 (as set forth in an officer’s certificate delivered pursuant to Section 9.01(f) for the fiscal quarter or fiscal year then last ended), the Applicable Prepayment Percentage shall instead be 0%.

(h) If the Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date shall have occurred at a time when Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments or Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments are in effect, then on the Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date all then outstanding Swingline Loans shall be repaid in full on such date (and there shall be no adjustment to the participations in such Swingline Loans as a result of the occurrence of such Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date); provided that, if on the occurrence of the Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date (after giving effect to any repayments of Revolving Loans and any reallocation of Letter of Credit participations as contemplated in Section 3.07), there shall exist sufficient unutilized Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments or Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments, as the case may be, so that the respective outstanding Swingline Loans could be incurred pursuant to the Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments or Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments, as the case may be, which will remain in effect after the occurrence of the Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date, then there shall be an automatic adjustment on such date of the participations in such Swingline Loans and same shall be deemed to have been incurred solely pursuant to the Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments or Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments, as the case may be, and such Swingline Loans shall not be so required to be repaid in full on the Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date.

2.02 Minimum Amount of Each Borrowing. The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing of Loans under a respective Tranche shall not be less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable to such Tranche; provided that Mandatory U.S. RL Borrowings shall be made in the amounts required by Section 2.01(g). More than one Borrowing may occur on the same date, but at no time shall there be outstanding more than (x) fifteen (15) Borrowings of LIBO Rate Loans and B/A Discount Rate Loans in the aggregate for all Tranches of Loans or (y) ten (10) different maturity dates in the aggregate for all outstanding Bankers’ Acceptance Loans.

2.03 Notice of Borrowing. (a) Whenever a Borrower desires to make a Borrowing of Loans hereunder (excluding (x) Borrowings of Swingline Loans, (y) Mandatory U.S. RL Borrowings and (z) Borrowings of Canadian Prime Rate Loans that are Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans to the extent resulting from automatic conversions of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans as provided in Schedule 2.17), such Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at its Notice Office at least one Business Day’s prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each Base Rate Loan or Canadian Prime Rate Loan to be made hereunder and at least three Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each LIBO Rate Loan, B/A Discount Rate Loan or Bankers’ Acceptance Loan to be made hereunder, provided that (in each case) any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on a certain day only if given before 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on such day. Each such notice (each, a “Notice of Borrowing”), except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.10, shall be irrevocable and shall be in writing, or by telephone promptly confirmed in writing by or on behalf of the respective Borrower, in the form of Exhibit A-1, appropriately completed to specify: (i) the aggregate principal amount or Face Amount, as the case may be, of the Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing (stated in the Applicable Currency), (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) whether the respective Borrowing shall consist of B Term Loans, C Term Loans, U.S. Borrower Incremental Term Loans, Canadian Borrower Incremental Term Loans, Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans or U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans, (iv) in the case of Dollar Denominated Loans, whether the Dollar Denominated Loans being made pursuant to such Borrowing are to be initially maintained as Base Rate Loans or LIBO Rate Loans, (v) in the case of Canadian Borrower Incremental Term Loans funded in Canadian Dollars, whether the Canadian Borrower Incremental Term Loans shall consist of Canadian Prime Rate Loans or B/A Discount Loans, (vi) in the case of LIBO Rate Loans and B/A Discount Rate Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto and (vii) in the case of Canadian Dollar Denominated Revolving Loans, whether the respective Borrowing shall consist of Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Bankers’ Acceptance Loans and, if Bankers’ Acceptance Loans, the term thereof (which shall comply with the requirements of Schedule 2.17). The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Lender which is required to make Loans of the Tranche specified in the respective Notice of Borrowing, notice of such proposed Borrowing, of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof (determined in accordance with Section 2.07) and of the other matters required by the immediately preceding sentence to be specified in the Notice of Borrowing.

-70-

(b) (i) Whenever the U.S. Borrower desires to incur Swingline Loans hereunder, the U.S. Borrower shall give the Swingline Lender no later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date that a Swingline Loan is to be incurred, written notice or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing of each Swingline Loan to be incurred hereunder. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and specify in each case (A) the date of Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), and (B) the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans to be incurred pursuant to such Borrowing.

(ii) Mandatory U.S. RL Borrowings shall be made upon the notice specified in Section 2.01(g), with the U.S. Borrower irrevocably agreeing, by its incurrence of any Swingline Loan, to the making of the Mandatory U.S. RL Borrowings as set forth in Section 2.01(g).

(c) Without in any way limiting the obligation of either Borrower to confirm in writing any telephonic notice of any Borrowing or prepayment of Loans, the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, may act without liability upon the basis of telephonic notice of such Borrowing or prepayment, as the case may be, believed by the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, in good faith to be from the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, the Treasurer or the General Counsel of such Borrower, or from any other authorized officer of such Borrower designated in writing by such Borrower to the Administrative Agent as being authorized to give such notices, prior to receipt of written confirmation. In each such case, each Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the Administrative Agent’s or Swingline Lender’s record of the terms of such telephonic notice of such Borrowing or prepayment of Loans, as the case may be, absent manifest error.

2.04 Disbursement of Funds. No later than 1:00 P.M. (New York time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing (or (x) in the case of Swingline Loans, no later than 12:00 Noon. (New York City time) on the date specified pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(i) or (y) in the case of Mandatory U.S. RL Borrowings, no later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date specified in Section 2.01(g)), each Lender with a Commitment of the respective Tranche will make available its pro rata portion (determined in accordance with Section 2.07 or, if then applicable, its Other Allocable Share) of each such Borrowing requested to be made on such date (or in the case of Swingline Loans, the Swingline Lender will make available the full amount thereof). All such amounts will be made available in U.S. Dollars (in the case of Dollar Denominated Loans) or in Canadian Dollars (in the case of Canadian Dollar Denominated Loans), as the case may be, and in immediately available funds at the Payment Office, and the Administrative Agent will, except in the case of U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans made pursuant to a Mandatory U.S. RL Borrowing, make available to the relevant Borrower at the Payment Office the aggregate of the amounts so made available by the Lenders. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the relevant Borrower and the relevant Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent also shall be entitled to recover on demand from such Lender or the U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the relevant Borrower until the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) if recovered from such Lender, the overnight Federal Funds Rate (or, in the case of Canadian Dollar Denominated Loans, the cost to the Administrative Agent of acquiring overnight funds in Canadian Dollars) for the first three days and at the interest rate otherwise applicable to such Loans for each day thereafter and (ii) if recovered from the relevant Borrower, the rate of interest applicable to the respective Borrowing, as determined pursuant to Section 2.08. Nothing in this Section 2.04 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to make Loans hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the relevant Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any failure by such Lender to make Loans hereunder.

2.06 Interest Rate Conversions. (a) The respective Borrower shall have the option to convert, on any Business Day, all or a portion equal to at least the Minimum Borrowing Amount of the outstanding principal amount of Dollar Denominated Loans of a given Tranche (other than Swingline Loans, which may not be converted pursuant to this Section 2.06) or Canadian Dollar Denominated Loans, in each case made pursuant to one or more Borrowings (so long as of the same Tranche) of one or more Types of Loans, into a Borrowing (of the same Tranche) of another Type of Loan (with the Type to be consistent with the Tranche and relevant Applicable Currency of the respective Loan), provided that (i) except as otherwise provided in Section 2.10(b), (x) LIBO Rate Loans may be converted into Base Rate Loans and (y) B/A Discount Rate Loans may be converted into Canadian Prime Rate Loans, in each case, only on the last day of an Interest Period applicable to the Loans being converted and no such partial conversion of LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans, as the case may be, shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of such LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans, as the case may be, made pursuant to a single Borrowing to less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto, (ii) unless the Required Lenders otherwise agree, (x) Base Rate Loans may only be converted into LIBO Rate Loans and (y) Canadian Prime Rate Loans may only be converted into B/A Discount Rate Loans, in each case, if no Default or Event of Default is in existence on the date of the conversion, (iii) unless the Administrative Agent otherwise agrees in its sole discretion or the Syndication Date has occurred (at which time this clause (iii) shall no longer be applicable), prior to the 90th day following the Initial Borrowing Date, conversions of Base Rate Loans into LIBO Rate Loans shall be subject to the provisions of clause (B) of the proviso in each of Sections 2.01(a)(iii), Sections 2.01(b)(iii), 2.01(d)(ii) and 2.01(e)(ii), and (iv) no conversion pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall result in a greater number of Borrowings of LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans than is permitted under Section 2.02.

The Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of any such proposed conversion affecting any of its Dollar Denominated Loans and/or Canadian Dollar Denominated Loans. Notwithstanding any provisions hereof, any conversion pursuant to this Section 2.06(a) or Section 2.09 of one Type of Canadian Borrower Term Loan into another Type of Canadian Borrower Term Loan shall be deemed to be a change in the interest method applicable to such Loan and shall not constitute a repayment of or reborrowing of any Canadian Borrower Term Loan being so converted.

-75-

(b) Mandatory and voluntary conversions of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans into Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall be made in the circumstances, and to the extent, provided in Schedule 2.17. Bankers’ Acceptance Loans shall not be permitted to be converted into any other Type of Loan prior to the maturity date of the respective Bankers’ Acceptance or B/A Equivalent Note, as the case may be.

(c) The Canadian Borrower shall have the option to convert on any Business Day occurring on or after the Initial Borrowing Date, all or a portion at least equal to the applicable Minimum Borrowing Amount of the outstanding principal amount of Canadian Prime Rate Loans made pursuant to one or more Borrowings of Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans into a Borrowing or Borrowings of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans under such Tranche; provided that (i) Canadian Prime Rate Loans may not be converted into Bankers’ Acceptance Loans if an Event of Default is in existence on the date of such conversion and the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Required Lenders) has given notice to the Canadian Borrower that no such conversion shall be permitted while such Event of Default is continuing and (ii) Borrowings of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans resulting from this Section 2.06 shall be limited in number as provided in Section 2.02. Each such conversion shall be effected by the Canadian Borrower by giving the Administrative Agent at its Notice Office, prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time), at least three Business Days prior to the date of the proposed conversion, a Notice of Conversion/Continuation specifying the Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans to be so converted into Bankers’ Acceptance Loans, the Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which such Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans were made and the term of the proposed Borrowing of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans (which, in each case, shall comply with the requirements of Schedule 2.17). The Administrative Agent shall give each Canadian Borrower RL Lender prompt notice of any such proposed conversion affecting any of its Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans maintained as Canadian Prime Rate Loans. Upon any such conversion, the proceeds thereof will be deemed to be applied directly on the day of such conversion to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Canadian Revolving Loans being converted.

All Borrowings of B Term Loans, C Term Loans, Incremental Term Loans, Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans and U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans (including Mandatory U.S. RL Borrowings) under this Agreement shall be incurred from the Lenders pro rata on the basis of such Lenders’ B Term Loan Commitments, C Term Loan Commitments, Incremental Term Loan Commitments, Canadian Borrower RL Percentages or U.S. Borrower RL Percentages, as the case may be. All Borrowings of Swingline Loans shall be incurred from the Swingline Lender. It is understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender of its obligation to make Loans hereunder and that each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to make its Loans hereunder.

(e) Upon each Interest Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine the LIBO Rate for each Interest Period applicable to the respective LIBO Rate Loans and shall promptly notify the U.S. Borrower and the Lenders thereof. Each such determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

(f) Any interest paid by a Canadian Borrower shall be deemed to have been paid first to satisfy any interest accrued on overdue interest.

2.09 Interest Periods. At the time a Borrower gives any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation in respect of the making of, or conversion into, any LIBO Rate Loan or B/A Discount Rate Loan (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto) or prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period applicable to such LIBO Rate Loan or B/A Discount Rate Loan, as the case may be, (in the case of any subsequent Interest Period), the respective Borrower shall have the right to elect the interest period (each, an “Interest Period”) applicable to such LIBO Rate Loan or B/A Discount Rate Loan, as the case may be, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be (but otherwise subject to the provisions of clause (B) of the proviso in each of Sections 2.01(a)(iii), Sections 2.01(b)(iii), 2.01(d)(ii) and 2.01(e)(ii)), be a one, two, three or six month period or, to the extent agreed to by all Lenders with LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans under the relevant Tranche, a nine or twelve month period; provided that (in each case):

(i) all LIBO Rate Loans and B/A Discount Rate Loans comprising a Borrowing shall at all times have the same Interest Period;

(ii) the initial Interest Period for any LIBO Rate Loan or B/A Discount Rate Loan shall commence on the date of Borrowing of such LIBO Rate Loan or B/A Discount Rate Loan (including, (x) in the case of LIBO Rate Loans, the date of any conversion thereto from a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and (y) in the case of B/A Discount Rate Loans, the date of any conversion thereto from a Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such LIBO Rate Loan or B/A Discount Rate Loan shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period applicable thereto expires;

(iii) if any Interest Period for a LIBO Rate Loan or B/A Discount Rate Loan begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such calendar month;

(iv) if any Interest Period for a LIBO Rate Loan or B/A Discount Rate Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a LIBO Rate Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;

(v) unless the Required Lenders otherwise agree, no Interest Period for a LIBO Rate Loan or a B/A Discount Rate Loan may be selected at any time when a Default or an Event of Default is then in existence; and

-78-

(vi) no Interest Period in respect of any Borrowing of any Tranche of Loans shall be selected which extends beyond the respective Maturity Date therefor.

With respect to any LIBO Rate Loans, at the end of any Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing thereof, the U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, may elect to split the respective Borrowing of a single Type under a single Tranche into two or more Borrowings of different Types under such Tranche or combine two or more Borrowings under a single Tranche into a single Borrowing of the same Type under such Tranche, in each case, by having the relevant Borrower give notice thereof together with its election of one or more Interest Periods, in each case so long as each resulting Borrowing (x) has an Interest Period which complies with the foregoing requirements of this Section 2.09, (y) has a principal amount which is not less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable to Borrowings of the respective Type and Tranche, and (z) does not cause a violation of the requirements of Section 2.02. If by 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans, the U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, has failed to elect, or is not permitted to elect, a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans as provided above, such Borrower shall be deemed to have elected (x) in the case of LIBO Rate Loans, to convert such LIBO Rate Loans into Base Rate Loans and (y) in the case of B/A Discount Rate Loans, to convert such B/A Discount Rate Loans into Canadian Prime Rate Loans, with any such conversion to be effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.

2.10 Increased Costs, Illegality, etc. (a) In the event that any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but, with respect to clause (i) or (iv) below, may be made only by the Administrative Agent):

(i) on any Interest Determination Date that, by reason of any changes arising after the date of this Agreement affecting the interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of LIBO Rate;

(ii) at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any LIBO Rate Loan because of any change since the Effective Date in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request (whether or not having the force of law) or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request, such as, but not limited to: (A) a change in the basis of taxation of payment to any Lender of the principal of or interest on the Loans or the Notes or any other amounts payable hereunder (except for changes in any Excluded Taxes) or (B) a change in official reserve requirements, but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included in the computation of the LIBO Rate;

(iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any LIBO Rate Loan has been made (x) unlawful by any law or governmental rule, regulation or order, (y) impossible by compliance by any Lender in good faith with any governmental request (whether or not having force of law) or (z) impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the Effective Date which materially and adversely affects the interbank Eurodollar market; or

-79-

(iv) at any time that there is no market for Bankers’ Acceptances by reason of circumstances affecting the Canadian money market generally, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably;

then, and in any such event, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent, in the case of clauses (i) or (iv) above) shall promptly give notice (by telephone promptly confirmed in writing) to the affected Borrower and, except in the case of clauses (i) and (iv) above, to the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter (w) in the case of clause (i) above, LIBO Rate Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the affected Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no longer exist, and any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by the relevant Borrower with respect to LIBO Rate Loans which have not yet been incurred (including by way of conversion) shall be deemed rescinded by such Borrower, (x) in the case of clause (ii) above, the respective Borrower (or Borrowers) agrees (or agree) to pay to such Lender, upon such Lender’s written request therefor, such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable hereunder (a written notice setting forth the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation thereof, shall be submitted to the respective Borrower or Borrowers by such Lender and shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto), (y) in the case of clause (iii) above, the respective Borrower or Borrowers shall take one of the actions specified in Section 2.10(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law and (z) in the case of clause (iv) above, Bankers’ Acceptance Loans (exclusive of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans which have theretofore been funded) shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no longer exist, and any Notice of Borrowing given by the Canadian Borrower with respect to such Bankers’ Acceptance Loans which have not been incurred shall be deemed rescinded by the Canadian Borrower.

(b) At any time that any LIBO Rate Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.10(a)(ii), the affected Borrower may, and in the case of a LIBO Rate Loan affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.10(a)(iii), the affected Borrower shall, either (x) if the affected LIBO Rate Loan is then being made initially or pursuant to a conversion, cancel such Borrowing by giving the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed in writing) on the same date that such Borrower was notified by the affected Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii) or (y) if the affected LIBO Rate Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three Business Days’ written notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to convert such LIBO Rate Loan into a Base Rate Loan, provided that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 2.10(b).

(c) If any Lender determines that after the Effective Date the introduction of or any change in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline, directive or request (whether or not having the force of law) concerning capital adequacy, or any change in interpretation or administration thereof by the NAIC or any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, will have the effect of increasing the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender based on the existence of such Lender’s Commitments hereunder or its obligations hereunder, then the respective Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender, upon its written demand therefor, such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender or such other corporation for the increased cost to such Lender or such other corporation or the reduction in the rate of return to such Lender or such other corporation as a result of such increase of capital. In determining such additional amounts, each Lender will act reasonably and in good faith and will use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable, provided that such Lender’s determination of compensation owing under this Section 2.10(c) shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto. Each Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.10(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the relevant Borrower, which notice shall show in reasonable detail the basis for calculation of such additional amounts.

-80-

2.11 Compensation. Each Borrower severally agrees to compensate each Lender, upon its written request (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such compensation and the calculation of the amount of such compensation), for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans, as applicable but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or the Administrative Agent) a Borrowing of, or conversion from or into, LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans, as applicable does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn by such Borrower or deemed withdrawn pursuant to Section 2.10(a)); (ii) if any prepayment or repayment (including any prepayment or repayment made pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02 or as a result of an acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 11) or conversion of any of its LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans, as applicable occurs on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto; (iii) if any prepayment or repayment (including any prepayment or repayment made pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02 or as a result of an acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 11) of any Bankers’ Acceptance Loan occurs on a date which is not the maturity date of the respective Bankers’ Acceptance Loan, as the case may be; (iv) if any prepayment of any LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the respective Borrower or Borrowers; or (v) as a consequence of (x) any other default by such Borrower to repay its Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement or any Note held by such Lender or (y) any election made pursuant to Section 2.10(b).

2.12 Change of Lending Office. (a) Each Lender may at any time or from time to time designate, by written notice to the Administrative Agent to the extent not already reflected on Schedule 13.03, one or more lending offices (which, for this purpose, may include Affiliates of the respective Lender) for the various Loans made, and Letters of Credit participated in, by such Lender (including, without limitation, by designating a separate lending office (or Affiliate) to act as such with respect to Obligations owing by the U.S. Borrower versus Obligations owing by the Canadian Borrower); provided that, for designations made after the Effective Date, to the extent such designation shall result in increased costs under Sections 2.10, 3.06 or 5.04 in excess of those which would be charged in the absence of the designation of a different lending office (including a different Affiliate of the respective Lender), then the Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay such excess increased costs (although if such designation results in increased costs, the Borrowers shall be obligated to pay the costs which would have applied in the absence of such designation and any subsequent increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective designation). Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, each lending office and Affiliate of any Lender designated as provided above shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, be treated in the same manner as the respective Lender (and shall be entitled to all indemnities and similar provisions in respect of its acting as such hereunder).

-81-

(b) Each Lender agrees that on the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), Section 2.10(c), Section 3.06 or Section 5.04 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the applicable Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans or Letters of Credit affected by such event, provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of such Section. Nothing in this Section 2.12 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of either Borrower or the right of any Lender provided in Sections 2.10, 3.06 and 5.04.

2.13 Replacement of Lenders. (x) If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, (y) upon the occurrence of an event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), Section 2.10(c), Section 3.06 or Section 5.04 with respect to such Lender or (z) in the case of a refusal by a Lender to consent to certain proposed changes, waivers, discharges or terminations with respect to this Agreement which have been approved by the Required Lenders as (and to the extent) provided in Section 13.12(b), the U.S. Borrower shall have the right, if no Default or Event of Default then exists (or, in the case of preceding clause (z), will exist immediately after giving effect to such replacement), to replace such Lender (the “Replaced Lender”) with one or more other Eligible Transferees, none of whom shall constitute a Defaulting Lender at the time of such replacement (collectively, the “Replacement Lender”) and each of whom shall be required to be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; provided that (i) at the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 2.13, the Replacement Lender shall enter into one or more Assignment and Assumption Agreements pursuant to Section 13.04(b) (and with all fees payable pursuant to said Section 13.04(b) to be paid by the Replacement Lender and/or the Replaced Lender (as may be agreed to at such time by and among the U.S. Borrower, the Replacement Lender and the Replaced Lender) pursuant to which the Replacement Lender shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Loans (other than Bankers’ Acceptances and B/A Equivalent Notes) of, and in each case participations in Letters of Credit by, the Replaced Lender and, in connection therewith, shall pay to (x) the Replaced Lender in respect thereof an amount equal to the sum of (I) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans (including the Face Amount of any outstanding Bankers’ Acceptances and B/A Equivalent Notes) of the respective Replaced Lender under each Tranche with respect to which such Replaced Lender is being replaced, (II) an amount equal to the Face Amount of any outstanding B/A Instrument of the respective Replaced Lender in satisfaction of the obligations of the Canadian Borrower to repay the B/A Instrument on the maturity thereof, (III) an amount equal to all Unpaid Drawings (if any) under each Tranche with respect to which the respective Replaced Lender is being replaced, in each case that have been funded by (and not reimbursed to) such Replaced Lender, together with all then unpaid interest with respect thereto at such time, and (IV) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid, Fees owing to the Replaced Lender pursuant to Section 4.01, (y) in the case of the replacement of any Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitment and/or U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitment, the respective Issuing Lender amounts equal to such Replaced Lender’s Canadian Borrower RL Percentage and/or U.S. Borrower RL Percentage, as the case may be, of any Unpaid Drawings pursuant to Letters of Credit issued pursuant to the respective Tranche evidenced by such Commitments (which at such time remain Unpaid Drawings) with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender to the extent such amount was not theretofore funded by such Replaced Lender, and (z) in the case of any replacement of U.S. Revolving Loan Commitments, the Swingline Lender, an amount equal to such Replaced Lender’s pro rata share of any Mandatory U.S. RL Borrowing (as appropriate) (determined in accordance with Sections 2.01(g), 2.01(h) and 2.07), to the extent such amount was not theretofore funded by such Replaced Lender, without duplication, (ii) all obligations of the Borrowers due and owing to the Replaced Lender at such time (other than those specifically described in clause (i) above in respect of which the assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being, paid) shall be paid in full to such Replaced Lender concurrently with such replacement and (iii) if the respective Replaced Lender has a related Canadian Borrower RL Lender, or if the Replaced Lender is a Canadian Borrower RL Lender which has a related Lender, all of the actions specified above in this Section 2.13 shall be taken with respect to both the respective Lender and Canadian Borrower RL Lender (who shall be treated collectively as a Replaced Lender). Upon receipt by the Replaced Lender of all amounts required to be paid to it pursuant to this Section 2.13, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled (but not obligated) and authorized to execute an Assignment and Assumption Agreement on behalf of such Replaced Lender, and any such Assignment and Assumption Agreement so executed by the Administrative Agent and the Replacement Lender shall be effective for purposes of this Section 2.13 and Section 13.04. Upon the execution of the respective Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above, recordation of the assignment on the Register pursuant to Section 13.15 and, if so requested by the Replacement Lender, delivery to the Replacement Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the respective Borrower, (x) the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.10, 2.11, 3.06, 5.04, 12.07 and 13.01), which shall survive as to such Replaced Lender and (y) in the case of the replacement of any Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitment or U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.13, the Canadian Borrower RL Percentages and/or U.S. Borrower RL Percentages, as the case may be, of the Lenders shall be automatically adjusted at such time to give effect to such replacement. In connection with any replacement of Lenders pursuant to, and as contemplated by, this Section 2.13, each of the U.S. Borrower and the Canadian Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Holdings to take all necessary action, in the name of the U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, as described above in this Section 2.13 in order to effect the replacement of the respective Lender or Lenders in accordance with the preceding provisions of this Section 2.13.

2.14 Extended Loans. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, subject to the terms of this Section 2.14, the U.S. Borrower may at any time and from time to time when no Default or Event of Default then exists request that all or a portion of any initial Tranche of the B Term Loans, C Term Loans, Incremental Term Loans, U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans or Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans (each, an “Existing B Term Loan Tranche”, “Existing C Term Loan Tranche”, “Existing Incremental Term Loan Tranche”, “Existing U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Tranche” and “Existing Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Tranche”, respectively), together with any related outstandings, be converted to extend the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all or any portion of the principal amount (and related outstandings) of such B Term Loans, C Term Loans, Incremental Term Loans, U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans or Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans (any such Loans which have been so converted, “Extended B Term Loans”, “Extended C Term Loans”, “Extended Incremental Term Loans”, “Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans” and “Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans”, respectively) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.14. In order to establish any Extended Loans, the U.S. Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Tranche) (each, an “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Loans to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under the relevant Existing Tranche (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and (y) be identical to the Loans under the relevant Existing Tranche from which such Extended Loans are to be converted, except that: (i) all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (ii) repayments of principal of the Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans and Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans may be delayed to later dates than the Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date; (iii) the Effective Yield with respect to the Extended Loans (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, original issue discount or otherwise) may be different than the Effective Yield for the Loans of such Existing Tranche to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; provided that if at the time of the effectiveness of any Extension Amendment with respect any new Extended Loans, Extended Loans of another Extension Series converted from the same Existing Tranche remain outstanding, then if the Effective Yield in respect of such new Extended Loans shall at any time (over the life of such Extended Loans) exceed by more than 0.50% the Effective Yield on the then outstanding Extended Loans pursuant to such other Extension Series, the Applicable Margin applicable thereto shall be increased to the extent necessary so that at all times thereafter the Extended Loans of each such existing Extension Series do not receive less than the Effective Yield with respect to such new Extended Loans less 0.50%; (iv) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Loans); (v) Extended Term Loans may have mandatory prepayment terms which provide for the application of proceeds from mandatory prepayment events to be made first to prepay the Loans under the relevant Existing Tranche from which such Extended Loans have been converted before applying any such proceeds to prepay such Extending Term Loans; and (vi) Extended Term Loans may have optional prepayment terms (including call protection and terms which allow Loans under the relevant Existing Tranche from which such Extended Term Loans have been converted to be optionally prepaid prior to the prepayment of such Extended Term Loans) as may be agreed by the Borrowers and the Lenders thereof; provided that no Extended Term Loans may be optionally prepaid prior to the date on which all Term Loans with an earlier final stated maturity (including Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche from which such Term Loans were converted) are repaid in full, unless such optional prepayment is accompanied by a pro rata optional prepayment of such other Term Loans; provided, however, that (A) in no event shall the final maturity date of any Extended Loans of a given Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof be earlier than the then Latest Maturity Date of any other Loans hereunder and (B) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Loans of a given Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any other Loans then outstanding. Any Extended Loans converted pursuant to any Extension Request shall be designated a series (each, an “Extension Series”) of Extended Loans, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Extended Loans converted from an Existing Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Extension Series with respect to such Existing Tranche.

-83-

(b) With respect to (i) any Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitment, subject to the provisions of Sections 3.07 and 2.01(h) to the extent dealing with Swingline Loans and U.S. Borrower Letters of Credit which mature or expire after the Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date, all Swingline Loans and U.S. Borrower Letters of Credit shall be participated in on a pro rata basis by all U.S. Borrower RL Lenders with Initial U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments and/or Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments in accordance with their U.S. Borrower RL Percentages (and, except as provided in Sections 3.07 and 2.01(h), without giving effect to changes thereto on the Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date with respect to Swingline Loans and U.S. Borrower Letters of Credit theretofore incurred or issued) and all borrowings under U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for (x) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments (and related outstandings) and (y) repayments required upon any Revolving Loan Maturity Date of any Tranche of Initial U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments or Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments) and (ii) any Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitment, subject to the provisions of Section 3.07 to the extent dealing with Canadian Borrower Letters of Credit which mature or expire after the Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date, all Canadian Borrower Letters of Credit shall be participated in on a pro rata basis by all Canadian Borrower RL Lenders with Initial Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments and/or Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments in accordance with their Canadian Borrower RL Percentages (and, except as provided in Section 3.07, without giving effect to changes thereto on the Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date with respect to Canadian Borrower Letters of Credit theretofore issued) and all borrowings under Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for (x) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments (and related outstandings) and (y) repayments required upon any Revolving Loan Maturity Date of any Tranche of Initial Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments or Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments).

-84-

(c) The U.S. Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which Lenders under the Existing Term Loan Tranche, Existing U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Tranche or Existing Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Tranche, as applicable, are requested to respond, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.14. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Loans of any Existing Tranche converted into Extended Loans pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Lender (i) (each, an “Extending Term Loan Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to such Extension Request converted into Extended Term Loans, (ii) (each, an “Extending U.S. Borrower RL Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans under the Existing U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Tranche subject to such Extension Request converted into Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans or (iii) (each, an “Extending Canadian Borrower RL Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans under the Existing Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Tranche subject to such Extension Request converted into Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans, shall notify the Administrative Agent (each, an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Loans under the applicable Existing Tranche which it has elected to request be converted into Extended Loans (subject to any minimum denomination requirements imposed by the Administrative Agent). Any Lender that does not respond to the Extension Request on or prior to the date specified therein shall be deemed to have rejected such Extension. In the event that the aggregate principal amount of (A) Term Loans under the respective Existing Term Loan Tranche, (B) U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans under the Existing Revolving Loan Tranche or (C) Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans under the Existing Revolving Loan Tranche, in each case subject to Extension Elections relating to a particular Extension Request, exceeds the amount of Extended Term Loans, Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans and Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans, respectively, requested pursuant to such Extension Request, Term Loan of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans or Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans, as applicable, subject to such Extension Elections shall either (i) be converted to Extended Term Loan of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans and Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans, respectively, on a pro rata basis based on the aggregate principal amount of Term Loan of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, U.S. Borrower Revolving Loans or Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans, as applicable, included in each such Extension Elections or (ii) to the extent such option is expressly set forth in the respective Extension Request, the U.S. Borrower shall have the option to increase the amount of Extended Term Loans so that such excess does not exist.

The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to each Extension and the other transactions contemplated by this Section 2.14 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest or fees in respect of any Extended Term Loans, Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments and Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments on such terms as may be set forth in the Extension Request) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 5.01, 5.02, 5.03, 13.02 or 13.06) or any other Credit Document that may otherwise prohibit any Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.14, provided that such consent shall not be deemed to be an acceptance of the Extension Request.

(f) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that this Agreement and the other Credit Documents may be amended pursuant to an Extension Amendment, without the consent of any other Lenders, to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms of any Extended Loans incurred pursuant thereto, (ii) modify the scheduled repayments set forth in Section 5.02(c) and/or 5.02(d), as applicable, with respect to any Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to an Extension Election to reflect a reduction in the principal amount of the Term Loans thereunder in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Extended Term Loans converted pursuant to the applicable Extension (with such amount to be applied ratably to reduce scheduled repayments of such Loans required pursuant to Section 5.02(c) and/or 5.02(d), as applicable), (iii) make such other changes to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents consistent with the provisions and intent of Section 13.12(d)(i), (iv) establish new Tranches or sub-Tranches in respect of B Term Loans, C Term Loans, U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments and Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary in connection with the establishment of such new Tranches or sub-Tranches, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.14, and (iv) effect such other amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section, and the Required Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such Extension Amendment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) to seek the advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders with respect to any matter contemplated by this Section 2.14 and, if the Administrative Agent seeks such advice or concurrence, the Administrative Agent shall be permitted to enter into such amendments with the Borrowers in accordance with any instructions actually received by such Required Lenders and shall also be entitled to refrain from entering into such amendments with the Borrowers unless and until it shall have received such advice or concurrence; provided, however, that whether or not there has been a request by the Administrative Agent for any such advice or concurrence, all such amendments entered into with the Borrowers by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be binding and conclusive on the Lenders. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extension, the respective Credit Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Administrative Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the Latest Maturity Date so that such maturity date is extended to the Latest Maturity Date (or such later date as may be advised by local counsel to the Administrative Agent).

provided that the U.S. Borrower may incur additional Incremental Term Loans and/or obtain Incremental RL Commitments (a “Ratio-Based Incremental Facility”) so long as the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio, determined on a Pro Forma Basis as of the last day of the most recently ended Calculation Period for which Section 9.01 Financials were required to have been delivered (or, if no Calculation Period has passed, as of the last four quarters ended), in each case, as if such Ratio-Based Incremental Facility (and Revolving Credit Loans in an amount equal to the full amount of any such Incremental RL Commitments) had been outstanding on the last day of such four-quarter period, shall not exceed 3.50 to 1.00, (vi) the proceeds of all Incremental Term Loans incurred by the U.S. Borrower shall be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes (including, without limitation, to finance one or more Permitted Acquisitions, to pay fees and expenses in connection therewith and/or to prepay then outstanding Revolving Loans (with no corresponding reduction in Revolving Loan Commitments), (vii) the proceeds of all Incremental Term Loans incurred by the Canadian Borrower shall be used to finance one or more Permitted Acquisitions and to pay fees and expenses in connection therewith, (viii) each Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement shall specifically designate, with the approval of the Administrative Agent, the Tranche of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments being provided thereunder (which Tranche shall be a new Tranche (i.e., not the same as any existing Tranche of Incremental Term Loans, Incremental Term Loan Commitments or other Term Loans), unless the requirements of Section 2.15(c) are satisfied), (ix) if to be incurred as a new Tranche of Incremental Term Loans, such Incremental Term Loans shall have the same terms as each other Tranche of Term Loans as in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness of the applicable Incremental Term Loan Agreement, except as to purpose (which is subject to the requirements of preceding clauses (vi) and (vii)) and mandatory repayment application provisions (which are governed by Section 5.02); provided, however, that (I) the maturity and amortization of such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans may differ, so long as such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans shall have (a) an Initial Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date of no earlier than the then latest maturing Tranche of outstanding Term Loans and (b) a Weighted Average Life to Maturity of no less than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity as then in effect for the Tranche of then outstanding Term Loans with the then longest Weighted Average Life to Maturity, (II) the Effective Yield applicable to such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans may differ from that applicable to the then outstanding Tranches of Term Loans, with the Effective Yield applicable thereto to be specified in the respective Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement;

(b) At the time of the provision of Incremental Term Loan Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.15, the respective Incremental Term Loan Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each such Lender or other Eligible Transferee which agrees to provide an Incremental Term Loan Commitment (each, an “Incremental Term Loan Lender”) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit M (appropriately completed), with the effectiveness of the Incremental Term Loan Commitment provided therein to occur on the date on which (w) a fully executed copy of the respective Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent, (x) all fees required to be paid in connection therewith at the time of such effectiveness shall have been paid (including, without limitation, any agreed upon up-front or arrangement fees owing to the Administrative Agent), (y) all Incremental Loan Commitment Requirements are satisfied, and (z) all other conditions set forth in this Section 2.15 shall have been satisfied.

-89-

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this Section 2.15, the Incremental Term Loan Commitments provided by an Incremental Term Loan Lender or Incremental Term Loan Lenders, as the case may be, pursuant to each Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement shall constitute a new Tranche, which shall be separate and distinct from the existing Tranches pursuant to this Agreement (with a designation which may be made in letters (i.e., A, B, C, etc.), numbers (1, 2, 3, etc.) or a combination thereof (i.e., X-0, X-0, X-0, X-0, X-0, X-0, etc.), provided that, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, the parties to a given Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement may specify therein that the respective Incremental Term Loans made pursuant thereto shall constitute part of, and be added to, an existing Tranche of Term Loans, in any case so long as the following requirements are satisfied:

(i) the Incremental Term Loans to be made pursuant to such Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement shall have the same Borrower, the same Maturity Date, the same Applicable Margins and the same currency denomination as the Tranche of Term Loans to which the new Incremental Term Loans are being added;

(ii) the new Incremental Term Loans shall have the same Scheduled Repayment dates as then remain with respect to the Tranche to which such new Incremental Term Loans are being added (with the amount of each Scheduled Repayment applicable to such new Incremental Term Loans to be the same (on a proportionate basis) as is theretofore applicable to the Tranche to which such new Incremental Term Loans are being added, thereby increasing the amount of each then remaining Scheduled Repayment of the respective Tranche proportionately;

(iii) on the date of the making of such new Incremental Term Loans, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 2.09, such new Incremental Term Loans shall be added to (and form part of) each Borrowing of outstanding Term Loans of the respective Tranche on a pro rata basis (based on the relative sizes of the various outstanding Borrowings), so that each Lender holding Loans under the respective Tranche of Term Loans participates in each outstanding Borrowing of Term Loans of the respective Tranche (after giving effect to the incurrence of such new Incremental Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.01(c)) on a pro rata basis; and

(iv) Incremental Term Loans may not be added to an existing Tranche of Term Loans borrowed by the Canadian Borrower.

To the extent the provisions of preceding clause (iii) require that Lenders making new Incremental Term Loans add such Incremental Term Loans to the then outstanding Borrowings of LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans of such Tranche, it is acknowledged that the effect thereof may result in such new Incremental Term Loans having short Interest Periods (i.e., an Interest Period that began during an Interest Period then applicable to outstanding LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans of such Tranche and which will end on the last day of such Interest Period). In connection therewith, it is hereby agreed that, to the extent the Incremental Term Loans are to be so added to the then outstanding Borrowings of Term Loans of such Tranche which are maintained as LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans, the Lenders that have made such Incremental Term Loans shall be entitled to receive from the relevant Borrower such amounts, as reasonably determined by the respective Lenders, to compensate them for funding the new Incremental Term Loans of the respective Tranche during an existing Interest Period (rather than at the beginning of the respective Interest Period based upon rates then applicable thereto). All determinations by any Lender pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

Each notice shall be in the form of Exhibit C, appropriately completed, including, without limitation, by specifying whether the requested Letter of Credit shall constitute a Canadian Borrower Letter of Credit or a U.S. Borrower Letter of Credit and the Available Currency (in the case of Canadian Borrower Letters of Credit) in which the requested Letter of Credit is to be denominated (each, a “Letter of Credit Request”).

-100-

(b) The making of each Letter of Credit Request shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, to the Lenders of the respective Tranche that such Letter of Credit may be issued in accordance with, and will not violate the requirements of, Section 3.02. Unless the respective Issuing Lender has received notice from any Borrower, any other Credit Party or the Required Lenders before it issues a Letter of Credit that one or more of the conditions specified in Section 6 or 7 are not then satisfied, or that the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate Section 3.02, then such Issuing Lender shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, issue the requested Letter of Credit for the account of the respective Borrower in accordance with such Issuing Lender’s usual and customary practices. Upon the issuance of or modification or amendment to any standby Letter of Credit, each Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the respective Borrower and the Administrative Agent, in writing of such issuance, modification or amendment and such notice shall be accompanied by a copy of such Letter of Credit or the respective modification or amendment thereto, as the case may be.

3.04 Letter of Credit Participations. (a) Immediately upon the issuance by any Issuing Lender of any Letter of Credit under a Tranche, such Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to (i) in the case of a Canadian Borrower Letter of Credit, each Canadian Borrower RL Lender and (ii) in the case of a U.S. Borrower Letter of Credit, each U.S. Borrower RL Lender (each such Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit, in its capacity under this Section 3.04, a “Participant”), and each such Participant shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such Issuing Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, in a percentage equal to (x) in the case of a Canadian Borrower Letter of Credit, such Participant’s Canadian Borrower RL Percentage or (y) in the case of a U.S. Borrower Letter of Credit, such Participant’s U.S. Borrower RL Percentage, in such Canadian Borrower Letter of Credit or U.S. Borrower Letter of Credit, as the case may be, each drawing or payment made thereunder (each, a “Drawing”) and the obligations of the respective Borrower under this Agreement with respect thereto (although Letter of Credit Fees shall be payable directly to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Canadian Borrower RL Lenders or U.S. Borrower RL Lenders, as the case may be, as provided in Section 4.01(b) and the Participants shall have no right to receive any portion of any Facing Fees with respect to any such Letters of Credit) and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto. Upon any change in (x) the Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments and, as a result thereof the Canadian Borrower RL Percentages, of the Canadian Borrower RL Lenders pursuant to Sections 2.13 or 13.04, it is hereby agreed that, with respect to all outstanding Canadian Borrower Letters of Credit and Unpaid Drawings relating thereto, there shall be an automatic adjustment to the participations pursuant to this Section 3.04 to reflect the new Canadian Borrower RL Percentages of the Canadian Borrower RL Lenders and (y) the U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments and, as a result thereof the U.S. Borrower RL Percentages, of the U.S. Borrower RL Lenders pursuant to Sections 2.13, 2.16 or 13.04, it is hereby agreed that with respect to all outstanding U.S. Borrower Letters of Credit and Unpaid Drawings relating thereto, there shall be an automatic adjustment to the participations pursuant to this Section 3.04 to reflect the new U.S. Borrower RL Percentages of the U.S. Borrower RL Lenders. With respect to each Letter of Credit from time to time outstanding, the percentage participations therein of the various Canadian Borrower RL Lenders (in the case of a Canadian Borrower Letter of Credit) or U.S. Borrower RL Lenders (in the case of a U.S. Borrower Letter of Credit) calculated as provided above in this Section 3.04(a) are herein called the “L/C Participation Percentages” of the various Canadian Borrower RL Lenders or U.S. Borrower RL Lenders, as the case may be, in such Letters of Credit. All calculations of the L/C Participation Percentages shall be made from time to time by the Administrative Agent, which calculations shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

-101-

(b) In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit under a Tranche, no Issuing Lender shall have any obligation relative to the other Lenders under such Tranche other than to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and that they appear to substantially comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by an Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it shall not create for such Issuing Lender any resulting liability to the respective Borrower, any other Credit Party, any Lender or any other Person unless such action is taken or omitted to be taken with gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Issuing Lender (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

(c) In the event that an Issuing Lender makes any payment under any Letter of Credit under a Tranche issued by it and the U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to such Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.05(a), such Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify each Participant under such Tranche (i.e., either (x) the Canadian Borrower RL Lenders in the case of a Canadian Borrower Letter of Credit or (y) the U.S. Borrower RL Lenders in the case of a U.S. Borrower Letter of Credit) of such failure, and each Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to such Issuing Lender the amount of such Participant’s L/C Participation Percentage (as relates to the respective Letter of Credit) of such unreimbursed payment in U.S. Dollars (or, to the extent the unreimbursed payment is, in accordance with Section 3.05(a), to be reimbursed in Canadian Dollars, in Canadian Dollars) and in same day funds. If the Administrative Agent so notifies, prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on any Business Day, any Participant under a Tranche required to fund a payment under a Letter of Credit under such Tranche, such Participant shall make available to the respective Issuing Lender in U.S. Dollars (or in Canadian Dollars to the extent such amount is required to be paid in Canadian Dollars pursuant to Section 3.05) such Participant’s L/C Participation Percentage (as relates to the respective Letter of Credit) of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same day funds. If and to the extent such Participant shall not have so made its L/C Participation Percentage of the amount of such payment available to the respective Issuing Lender, such Participant agrees to pay to such Issuing Lender, forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to such Issuing Lender at the overnight Federal Funds Rate (or, in the case of amounts owed in Canadian Dollars, the cost to the Administrative Agent of acquiring overnight funds in Canadian Dollars) for the first three days and at the interest rate applicable to Revolving Loans that are maintained as Base Rate Loans for each day thereafter. The failure of any Participant under a Tranche to make available to an Issuing Lender its relevant L/C Participation Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit under such Tranche issued by such Issuing Lender shall not relieve any other Participant under such Tranche of its obligation hereunder to make available to such Issuing Lender its relevant L/C Participation Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit under such Tranche on the date required, as specified above, but no Participant under such Tranche shall be responsible for the failure of any other Participant under such Tranche to make available to such Issuing Lender such other Participant’s relevant L/C Participation Percentage of any such payment.

-102-

(d) Whenever an Issuing Lender receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation as to which it has received any payments from the Participants pursuant to clause (c) above, such Issuing Lender shall pay to each such Participant which has paid its RL Percentage thereof, in U.S. Dollars (or, in Canadian Dollars in the case of payments to be made in Canadian Dollars pursuant to Section 3.05(a)) and in same day funds, an amount equal to such Participant’s share (based upon the proportionate aggregate amount originally funded by such Participant to the aggregate amount funded by all Participants) of the principal amount of such reimbursement obligation and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective participations.

(e) Upon the request of any Participant under a Tranche, each Issuing Lender shall furnish to such Participant copies of any standby Letter of Credit under such Tranche issued by it and such other documentation as may reasonably be requested by such Participant.

(f) The obligations of the Participants under a Tranche to make payments to each Issuing Lender with respect to Letters of Credit under such Tranche shall be irrevocable and not subject to any qualification or exception whatsoever (except in the case of an Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision)) and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents;

(ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which a Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, any Participant, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the respective Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the respective Borrower and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit);

(iii) any draft, certificate or any other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(iv) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Credit Documents; or

3.06 Increased Costs. If at any time after the Effective Date, the introduction of or any change in any applicable law, rule, regulation, order, guideline or request or in the interpretation or administration thereof by the NAIC or any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Issuing Lender or any Participant with any request or directive by the NAIC or by any such Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall either (i) impose, modify or make applicable any reserve, deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement against letters of credit issued by any Issuing Lender or participated in by any Participant, or (ii) impose on any Issuing Lender or any Participant any other conditions relating, directly or indirectly, to this Agreement or any Letter of Credit; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to any Issuing Lender or any Participant of issuing, maintaining or participating in any Letter of Credit, or reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by any Issuing Lender or any Participant hereunder or reduce the rate of return on its capital with respect to Letters of Credit (except for changes in any Excluded Taxes), then, upon the delivery of the certificate referred to below to the U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, by any Issuing Lender or any Participant (a copy of which certificate shall be sent by such Issuing Lender or such Participant to the Administrative Agent), the respective Borrower agrees to pay to such Issuing Lender or such Participant such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Issuing Lender or such Participant for such increased cost or reduction in the amount receivable or reduction on the rate of return on its capital. Any Issuing Lender or any Participant, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 3.06, will give prompt written notice thereof to the respective Borrower, which notice shall include a certificate submitted to the respective Borrower by such Issuing Lender or such Participant (a copy of which certificate shall be sent by the Issuing Lender or such Participant to the Administrative Agent), setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation of such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Issuing Lender or such Participant. The certificate required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 3.06 shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on the respective Borrower.

3.07 Extended Commitments. If the Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date shall have occurred at a time when Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments or Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments are in effect, then such Letters of Credit shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Lenders under the applicable Tranche to purchase participations therein and to make payments in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.04 ) under (and ratably participated in by Lenders under the applicable Tranche pursuant to) the Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments or Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments, as applicable, up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Extended U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments or Extended Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments, as the case may be, thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated). Except to the extent of reallocations of participations pursuant to the prior sentence, the occurrence of the Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date with respect to a given Tranche of Commitments shall have no effect upon (and shall not diminish) the percentage participations of the Lenders under a Tranche in any Letter of Credit under such Tranche issued before the Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date.

(f) [Reserved.]

(g) In addition to any other mandatory repayments pursuant to this Section 5.02, within five Business Days following each date on or after the Initial Borrowing Date upon which either Borrower or any of its respective Restricted Subsidiaries receives any cash proceeds from any issuance or incurrence by such Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 10.04), an amount equal to 100% of the Net Debt Proceeds of the respective incurrence of Indebtedness shall be applied as a mandatory repayment in accordance with the requirements of Sections 5.02(k) and (l).

(h) In addition to any other mandatory repayments pursuant to this Section 5.02, within five Business Days following each date on or after the Initial Borrowing Date upon which the U.S. Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries receives any cash proceeds from any Asset Sale, an amount equal to 100% of the Net Sale Proceeds therefrom shall be applied as a mandatory repayment in accordance with the requirements of Sections 5.02(k) and (l); provided, however, with respect to no more than $7,500,000 in the aggregate of such Net Sale Proceeds received by Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries in any fiscal year of such Borrower, such Net Sale Proceeds shall not be required to be so applied or used to make mandatory repayments of Term Loans if no Event of Default then exists and the U.S. Borrower shall deliver within 45 days of the date of receipt of such Net Sale Proceeds a certificate to the Administrative Agent setting forth that portion of such Net Sale Proceeds that the U.S. Borrower and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, intends to reinvest in the purchase of Equipment, other fixed assets or other tangible assets (but, in the case of tangible assets which do not constitute Equipment or fixed assets, only to the extent replacing the respective such tangible assets subject to such Asset Sale), in each case to be used in the business of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries within 12 months following the date of receipt of such proceeds (or, if within such 12 month period, the U.S. Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries enters into a binding commitment to so reinvest in such Net Sale Proceeds, within 18 months following the date of receipt of such proceeds); provided, further, that if within 12 months (or, to the extent applicable 18 months) after the date of receipt by the U.S. Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries of such Net Sale Proceeds, the U.S. Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries have not so used all or a portion of such Net Sale Proceeds not required to be applied as a mandatory repayment pursuant to the preceding proviso, the remaining portion of such Net Sale Proceeds shall be applied as a mandatory repayment in accordance with the requirements of Sections 5.02(k) and (l) on the last day of such 12 month (or, to the extent applicable, 18 month) period.

-114-

(i) In addition to any other mandatory repayments pursuant to this Section 5.02, on each Excess Cash Flow Payment Date, an amount equal to the remainder of (i) the Applicable Prepayment Percentage of the Excess Cash Flow for the related Excess Cash Flow Payment Period less (ii) the aggregate amount of all voluntary prepayments of Term Loans and, so long as accompanied by a contemporaneous permanent reduction in Revolving Loan Commitments in a like or greater amount, Revolving Loans, in each case made pursuant to Section 5.01(a) during such Excess Cash Flow Payment Period with Internally Generated Cash or with proceeds of Excluded Contributions shall be applied as a mandatory repayment in accordance with the requirements of Sections 5.02(k) and (l).

(j) In addition to any other mandatory repayments pursuant to this Section 5.02, within 10 days following each date on or after the Initial Borrowing Date upon which the U.S. Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries receives any cash proceeds from any Recovery Event, an amount equal to 100% of the Net Insurance Proceeds from such Recovery Event shall be applied as a mandatory repayment in accordance with the requirements of Section 5.02(k) and (l); provided, however, with respect to no more than $10,000,000 in the aggregate of such Net Insurance Proceeds received by Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries in any fiscal year of Holdings, such Net Insurance Proceeds shall not give rise to a mandatory repayment within such ten day period to the extent that no Default or Event of Default then exists and the U.S. Borrower shall deliver within 90 days of the date of receipt of such Net Insurance Proceeds a certificate to the Administrative Agent setting forth (x) that portion of such Net Insurance Proceeds that the U.S. Borrower and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, intends to reinvest in the purchase of Equipment, other fixed assets or other tangible assets (but, in the case of tangible assets which do not constitute Equipment or fixed assets, only to the extent replacing the respective such tangible assets subject to such Recovery Event), in each case to be used in the business of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries within two (2) years following the date of receipt of such proceeds and (y) the proposed use of such portion of such Net Insurance Proceeds (and, in connection therewith, shall thereafter promptly provide such other information with respect to such reinvestment as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request); provided, further, that if (x) within 365 days after the date of receipt by the U.S. Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of such Net Insurance Proceeds, the U.S. Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries have not used such Net Insurance Proceeds, or in the alternative have not delivered to the Administrative Agent evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that the U.S. Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries have entered into one or more binding contractual commitments to so use such Net Insurance Proceeds, or, in any event (y) if within two (2) years after the date of receipt by the U.S. Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of such Net Insurance Proceeds, the U.S. Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries have not so used all or a portion of such Net Insurance Proceeds not required to be applied as a mandatory repayment pursuant to the preceding proviso, the remaining portion of such Net Insurance Proceeds shall be applied as a mandatory repayment in accordance with the requirements of Sections 5.02(k) and (l) on the last day of such 365 day period or two (2) year period, as the case may be.

-115-

(k) Each amount required to be applied pursuant to Sections 5.02(g), (h), (i) and (j) in accordance with this Section 5.02(k) shall be applied to repay the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans, with each Tranche of then outstanding Term Loans to be allocated its Term Loan Percentage of each amount so required to be applied; provided that with respect to repayments to be made pursuant to Sections 5.02(h) and (j), if such amounts are required to be used to make a mandatory repayment hereunder are (x) received by the U.S. Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Canadian Subsidiaries, then such amounts shall first be applied by the U.S. Borrower to repay outstanding U.S. Borrower Term Loans (with their Term Loan Percentages determined as provided above except that for purposes of such determinations there shall be deemed to be no Canadian Borrower Term Loans then outstanding) and, only to the extent the proceeds to be applied exceed the aggregate principal amount of U.S. Borrower Term Loans then outstanding, to repay principal of then outstanding Canadian Borrower Term Loans, or (y) received by the Canadian Borrower or any of the Canadian Subsidiaries, then such amounts shall be applied by the Canadian Borrower to repay outstanding Canadian Borrower Term Loans (with their Term Loan Percentages determined as provided above except that for purposes of such determinations there shall be deemed to be no U.S. Borrower Term Loans then outstanding) and, to the extent the proceeds to be applied exceed the aggregate principal amount of Canadian Borrower Term Loans then outstanding, the U.S. Borrower shall, subject to such proceeds having been repatriated pursuant to Section 5.02(o), be required to apply an amount equal to such excess (although the Canadian Borrower shall have no obligation to pay such amounts) to repay principal of then outstanding U.S. Borrower Term Loans in accordance with the requirements of this Section 5.02(k)). With respect to amounts required to be applied pursuant to Section 5.02(g), (h), (i) and (j), the amounts to be applied to each Tranche of outstanding Term Loans shall be determined as provided above; provided that such provision shall determine only the amount each Borrower is required to repay with respect to outstanding Tranche of Term Loans, and nothing in this Section 5.02(k) (or elsewhere in this Agreement) shall require the Canadian Borrower to utilize any proceeds received by it to repay outstanding Term Loans of the U.S. Borrower. Except as otherwise provided below, all repayments of outstanding Term Loans of a given Tranche pursuant to Sections 5.02(g), (h), (i) and (j) (and applied pursuant to this clause (k)) shall be applied (1) first, to reduce the Scheduled Repayments of the respective Tranche which will become due within twelve months after the date of such repayment in direct order of maturity of the dates of such Scheduled Repayments, and (2) second, to the extent in excess of the amount applied as provided in the preceding clause (1), to reduce the then remaining Scheduled Repayments of the respective Tranche of Term Loans on a pro rata basis (based upon the then remaining unpaid principal amounts of the Scheduled Repayments of such Tranche of Term Loans after giving effect to all prior reductions thereto).

-116-

(l) With respect to each repayment of Loans required by this Section 5.02, the respective Borrower may (subject to the priority payment requirements of Section 5.02(k)) designate the Types of Loans of the respective Tranche which are to be repaid and, in the case of LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans, the specific Borrowing or Borrowings of the respective Tranche pursuant to which such LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans were made, provided that: (i) repayments of LIBO Rate Loans and B/A Discount Rate Loans pursuant to this Section 5.02 may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto unless all such LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans of the respective Tranche with Interest Periods ending on such date of required repayment and all Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans (as applicable) of the respective Tranche have been paid in full; (ii) if any repayment of LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding LIBO Rate Loans or B/A Discount Rate Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto, (x) in the case of LIBO Rate Loans, such Borrowing shall be automatically converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and (y) in the case of B/A Discount Rate Loans, such Borrowing shall be automatically converted into a Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans; and (iii) each repayment of any Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall be applied pro rata among such Loans. In the absence of a designation by the respective Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its sole discretion.

(m) In addition to any other mandatory repayments pursuant to this Section 5.02, all then outstanding Loans of any Tranche of Loans shall be repaid in full on the respective Maturity Date for such Tranche of Loans.

(n) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, all payments owing with respect to each Tranche of Loans pursuant to this Section 5.02 shall be made in the respective currency or currencies in which the respective obligations are owing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. For purposes of making calculations pursuant to this Section 5.02, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to use the U.S. Dollar Equivalent or Canadian Dollar Equivalent, as the case may be, of any such amounts required to be converted into other currencies for purposes of making determinations pursuant to this Section 5.02.

(o) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 5.02, (i) to the extent that any or all of the Net Sale Proceeds of any Asset Sale by a Foreign Subsidiary (“Foreign Asset Sale”), the Net Insurance Proceeds of any Recovery Event incurred by a Foreign Subsidiary (“Foreign Recovery Event”) or Excess Cash Flow attributable to Foreign Subsidiaries are prohibited or delayed by applicable local law or applicable organizational documents of such Foreign Subsidiary from being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such Net Sale Proceeds, Net Insurance Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay B Term Loans at the times provided in this Section 5.02 but may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law or applicable organizational documents of such Foreign Subsidiary will not permit repatriation to the United States (the U.S. Borrower hereby agreeing to use all commercially reasonable efforts to overcome or eliminate any such restrictions on repatriation and/or minimize any such costs of prepayment and/or use the other cash sources of Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries to make the relevant prepayment), and if within one year following the date on which the respective prepayment would otherwise have been required such repatriation of any of such affected Net Sale Proceeds, Net Insurance Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local law or applicable organizational documents of such Foreign Subsidiary, such repatriation will be immediately effected and such repatriated Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be promptly (and in any event not later than two Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof and additional costs relating to such repatriation) to the repayment of the B Term Loans pursuant to this Section 5.02 or (ii) to the extent that the U.S. Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Sale Proceeds of any Foreign Asset Sale, Net Insurance Proceeds of any Foreign Asset Sale or Foreign Recovery Event or Foreign Subsidiary Excess Cash Flow would have adverse tax cost consequences with respect to such Net Sale Proceeds, Net Insurance Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, such Net Sale Proceeds, Net Insurance Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary.

-117-

5.03 Method and Place of Payment. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments under this Agreement and under any Note shall be made to the Administrative Agent (except that with respect to Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans such payments shall be made to the Canadian Sub-Agent) for the account of the Lender or Lenders entitled thereto not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date when due and shall be made in (x) U.S. Dollars in immediately available funds at the Payment Office of the Administrative Agent in respect of any obligation of the Borrowers under this Agreement except as otherwise provided in the immediately following clause (y) and (y) Canadian Dollars in immediately available funds at the Payment Office of the Administrative Agent, if such payment is made in respect of (i) principal of, or Face Amount of, or interest on Canadian Dollar Denominated Loans, (ii) Letter of Credit Fees, Facing Fees and Unpaid Drawings (and interest thereon) in respect of Canadian Dollar Denominated Letters of Credit, or (iii) any increased costs, indemnities or other amounts owing with respect to Canadian Dollar Denominated Loans (or Commitments relating thereto), in the case of this clause (iii) to the extent the respective Lender or Issuing Lender which is charging same denominates the amounts owing in Canadian Dollars. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under any Note shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable at the applicable rate during such extension.

5.04 Net Payments. (a) All payments made by each Credit Agreement Party hereunder and under any Note will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided, that if any Indemnified Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted from such payments, then the Credit Agreement Parties (other than, with respect to any Loans or Obligations (other than Obligations constituting U.S. Borrower guarantees of Obligations of the Canadian Borrower) of the U.S. Borrower, the Canadian Credit Parties) jointly and severally agree that (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholding (including deduction or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) such Credit Agreement Party will make such deductions or withholdings, and (iii) such Credit Agreement Party shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law However, no such additional sums shall be payable by the Canadian Borrower with respect to a payment by or on account of any obligation of the Canadian Borrower hereunder to a person (x) with which the Canadian Borrower does not deal with at arm’s length (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada)) at the time of making such payment or (y) which is subject to such Indemnified Taxes by reason of its failure to comply with any certification, identification, information, documentation or other reporting requirements if compliance is required by law, regulation, administrative practice or an applicable treaty as a precondition to exemption from, or a reduction in the rate of deduction of withholding of, such Indemnified Taxes. In addition, the Credit Agreement Parties shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, will furnish to the Administrative Agent within 45 days after the date the payment of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be. The Credit Agreement Parties (other than, with respect to any Loans or Obligations (other than Obligations constituting U.S. Borrower guarantees of Obligations of the Canadian Borrower) of the U.S. Borrower, the Canadian Credit Parties) jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, and reimburse such Lender upon its written request, for the amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by such Lender.

-118-

(b) To the extent legally entitled to do so, each Lender to the U.S. Borrower that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. Federal income tax purposes agrees to deliver to the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Effective Date or, in the case of a Lender that is a Lender to the U.S. Borrower and that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.13 or 13.04(b) (unless the respective Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment or transfer), on the date of such assignment or transfer to such Lender, (i) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN (with respect to a complete exemption under an income tax treaty) (or successor forms) certifying to such Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from or reduction in United States withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and under any Note, or (ii) if the Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and cannot deliver either Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN (with respect to a complete exemption under an income tax treaty) (or any successor forms) pursuant to clause (i) above, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D (any such certificate, a “Section 5.04(b)(ii) Certificate”) and (y) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (with respect to the portfolio interest exemption) (or successor form) certifying to such Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments of interest to be made under this Agreement and under any Note. In addition, each Lender that is a Lender to the U.S. Borrower agrees that from time to time after the Effective Date, when a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the previous certification obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, such Lender will deliver to the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent two new accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN (with respect to the benefits of any income tax treaty), or Form W-8BEN (with respect to the portfolio interest exemption) and a Section 5.04(b)(ii) Certificate, as the case may be, and such other forms as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender to a continued exemption from or reduction in United States withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Note, or such Lender shall immediately notify the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its inability to deliver any such Form or Certificate, in which case such Lender shall not be required to deliver any such Form or Certificate pursuant to this Section 5.04(b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.04(a), but subject to Section 13.04(b) and the immediately succeeding sentence, the U.S. Borrower shall be entitled, to the extent it is required to do so by law, to deduct or withhold income or similar taxes imposed by the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) from interest, Fees or other amounts payable by it hereunder for the account of any Lender which is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. Federal income tax purposes to the extent that such Lender has not provided to the U.S. Borrower the Internal Revenue Service Forms that establish a complete exemption from such deduction or withholding. For the avoidance of doubt, the Credit Agreement Parties (other than, with respect to any Loans or Obligations of the U.S. Borrower, the Canadian Credit Parties) jointly and severally agree to pay any additional amounts and to indemnify each Lender with respect to Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes in the manner set forth in Section 5.04(a) (without regard to the identity of the jurisdiction requiring the deduction or withholding) in respect of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes deducted or withheld by them as described in the immediately preceding sentence as a result of any changes that are effective after the Effective Date in any applicable law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the interpretation thereof, relating to the deducting or withholding of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes.

-119-

(c) Each Lender to the U.S. Borrower that is a United States Person, as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, shall (unless such Lender may be treated as an exempt recipient based on the indicators described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.6049-4(c)(1)(ii)(A)(1)) deliver to the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the times specified in Section 5.04(b), two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any successor form that such Person is entitled to provide at such time, in order to qualify for an exemption from United States back-up withholding requirements.

(d) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Credit Agreement Parties or with respect to which a Credit Agreement Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to Section 5.04(a), it shall pay to the relevant Credit Agreement Party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Credit Agreement Party under Section 5.04(a) with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the relevant Credit Agreement Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Credit Agreement Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Nothing in this Section 5.04(d) shall be construed to obligate the Administrative Agent or any Lender to disclose its Tax returns or any other information regarding its Tax affairs or computations to any Person or otherwise to arrange its Tax affairs in any manner other than as it determines in its sole discretion.

Section 6. Conditions Precedent to Credit Events on the Initial Borrowing Date. The obligation of each Lender to make Loans, and the obligation of each Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit, on the Initial Borrowing Date, is subject at the time of the making of such Loans or the issuance of such Letters of Credit to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

6.01 Effective Date; Credit Documents; Notes. On or prior to the Initial Borrowing Date, (i) the Effective Date shall have occurred and (ii) there shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent for the account of each of the Lenders that has requested same the appropriate B Term Note, C Term Note, U.S. Borrower Revolving Note and/or Canadian Borrower Revolving Note and to the Swingline Lender, if so requested by it, the Swingline Note, in each case executed by the relevant Borrower and in the amount and maturity and as otherwise provided herein.

-120-

12.05 Notice of Default, etc. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless such Agent has actually received written notice from a Lender or either Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Agents shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided that, unless and until any Agent shall have received such directions, such Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders (as determined by such Agent in its sole discretion).

12.06 Nonreliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Independently and without reliance upon any Agent, each Lender and the holder of each Note, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Holdings and its Subsidiaries in connection with the making and the continuance of the Loans and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender or the holder of any Note with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter. No Agent or their respective affiliates nor any of their respective officers, directors, agents or employees shall be responsible to any Lender or the holder of any Note for, or be required or have any duty to ascertain, inquire or verify the accuracy of, (i) any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith, (ii) the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectability, priority or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (iii) the financial condition of Holdings and any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (v) the satisfaction of any of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6 or 7, or (vi) the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default.

12.07 Indemnification. (a) To the extent any Agent (or any affiliate thereof) is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Credit Agreement Parties, the Lenders will reimburse and indemnify such Agent (and any affiliate thereof) in proportion to their respective “percentages” as used in determining the Required Lenders (determined as if there were no Defaulting Lenders), for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by such Agent (or any affiliate thereof) in performing its respective duties hereunder or under any other Credit Document or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

-180-

(b) Any Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder and under any other Credit Document (except actions expressly required to be taken by it hereunder or under the Credit Documents) unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

12.08 Agents in their Individual Capacities. With respect to its obligation to make Loans, or issue or participate in Letters of Credit, under this Agreement, each Agent shall have the rights and powers specified herein for a “Lender” and may exercise the same rights and powers as though it were not performing the duties specified herein; and the term “Lender”, “Required Lenders”, “Supermajority Lenders”, “Majority Lenders”, “holders of Notes” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include each Agent in its individual capacity. Each Agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, investment banking, trust or other business with, or provide debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to, any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party (or any Person engaged in a similar business with any Credit Party or any Affiliate thereof) as if they were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.

12.09 Holders. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the assignment, transfer or endorsement thereof, as the case may be, shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. Any request, authority or consent of any Person or entity who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee, assignee or endorsee, as the case may be, of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor.

12.10 Resignation of the Agents. (a) The Administrative Agent and Canadian Sub-Agent may resign from the performance of all its functions and duties hereunder and/or under the other Credit Documents (including, without limitation, its functions and duties as Collateral Agent) at any time by giving 30 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Lenders and, unless a Default or an Event of Default under Section 11.05 then exists, the U.S. Borrower. Any such resignation by an Agent hereunder shall also constitute its resignation (if applicable) as an Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender, in which case the resigning Agent (x) shall not be required to issue any further Letters of Credit or make any additional Swingline Loans hereunder and (y) shall maintain all of its rights as Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by it, or Swingline Loans made by it, prior to the date of such resignation. Such resignation shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) below or as otherwise provided below.

-181-

(b) Upon any such notice of resignation by the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Canadian Sub-Agent hereunder and/or under the other Credit Documents who shall be a commercial bank or trust company acceptable to the U.S. Borrower, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (provided that the U.S. Borrower’s approval shall not be required if an Event of Default then exists).

(c) If a successor Administrative Agent and Canadian Sub-Agent shall not have been so appointed within such 30 Business Day period, the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the U.S. Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that the consent of the U.S. Borrower shall not be required if an Event of Default then exists), shall then appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Canadian Sub-Agent who shall serve as Administrative Agent and Canadian Sub-Agent, respectively, hereunder and/or under the other Credit Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Canadian Sub-Agent as provided above.

(d) If no successor Administrative Agent and Canadian Sub-Agent have been appointed pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above by the 30th Business Day after the date such notice of resignation was given by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s and Canadian Sub-Agent’s resignation shall become effective and the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent and Canadian Sub-Agent hereunder and/or under any other Credit Document until such time, if any, as the Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Canadian Sub-Agent as provided above (except in the case of the Collateral Agent holding collateral security on behalf of the Secured Creditors, the resigning Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security as nominee until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed).

(e) Upon a resignation of any Agent pursuant to this Section 12.10, such Agent shall remain indemnified to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the provisions of this Section 12 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such Agent for all of its actions and inactions while serving as such Agent.

12.11 Collateral Matters. (a) Each Lender authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Security Documents for the benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Creditors. Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note or participant in Letters of Credit by the acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Security Documents, and the exercise by the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time prior to an Event of Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents.

-182-

(b) The Lenders hereby authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to (i) release any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral (A) upon termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations at any time arising under or in respect of this Agreement or the Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (B) constituting property being sold or otherwise disposed of (to Persons other than Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries) upon the sale or other disposition thereof in compliance with Section 10.02, (C) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders hereunder, to the extent required by Section 13.12), (D) owned by a Subsidiary Guarantor upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guaranty pursuant to clause (iii) below or (E) as otherwise may be expressly provided in the relevant Security Documents, (ii) at the request of the U.S. Borrower, to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent or Administrative Agent under any Credit Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 10.01 but only to the extent Section 10.01 permits such Lien to be prior to the Liens held by the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents and (iii) to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under any Credit Document to which it is a party if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary constituting a Guarantor as a result of a transaction or designation permitted hereunder. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral or guarantees pursuant to this Section 12.11.

(c) The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Lenders or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by either Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent in this Section 12.11 or in any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Collateral Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as one of the Lenders and that the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

(d) For greater certainty, and without limiting the powers of the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents, the Borrowers hereby acknowledge that the Collateral Agent shall, for purposes of holding any security granted by any Credit Party on property pursuant to the laws of the Province of Quebec to secure obligations of any Credit Party under any bond or debenture (the Quebec Secured Obligations), be the holder of an irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir) (within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec) for all present and future holders of any bond or debenture. Each Lender, for itself and for all present and future affiliates that are or may become a Lender, hereby irrevocably constitutes, to the extent necessary, the Collateral Agent as the holder of an irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir) (within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec) in order to hold security granted by each Credit Party in the Province of Quebec to secure the Quebec Secured Obligations. Each assignee (for itself and for all present and future affiliates) of a Lender shall be deemed to have confirmed and ratified the constitution of the Collateral Agent as the holder of such irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir) by execution of the relevant Assignment and Assumption Agreement or other relevant documentation. The substitution or replacement of the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 12.10 shall also constitute the substitution or replacement of the fondé de pouvoir. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 32 of the An Act respecting the special powers of legal persons (Quebec), the Collateral Agent may acquire and be the holder of any bond or debenture. The Borrowers hereby acknowledge that such bond or debenture constitutes a title of indebtedness, as such term is used in Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec. The fondé de pouvoir shall (a) have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise, except as may be otherwise specifically restricted hereunder, all rights and remedies given to the fondé de pouvoir pursuant to any hypothec, bond, pledge, applicable law or otherwise, (b) benefit from and be subject to all provisions hereof with respect to the Collateral Agent, mutatis mutandis, including, without limitation, all such provisions with respect to the liability or responsibility to an indemnification by the Lender, and (c) be entitled to delegate from time to time any of its powers or duties under any hypothec, bond, or pledge on such terms and conditions as it may determine from time to time.

-183-

12.12 Delivery of Information. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver to any Lender originals or copies of any documents, instruments, notices, communications or other information received by the Administrative Agent from any Credit Party, any Subsidiary, the Required Lenders, any Lender or any other Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document except (i) as specifically provided in this Agreement or any other Credit Document and (ii) as specifically requested from time to time in writing by any Lender with respect to a specific document, instrument, notice or other written communication received by and in the possession of the Administrative Agent at the time of receipt of such request and then only in accordance with such specific request.

12.13 Special Provisions Applicable to Joint Lead Arrangers and Documentation Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this Section 12, the Lenders and Credit Agreement Parties hereby recognize and agree that the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Documentation Agent are titles given for recognition purposes only, and no Joint Lead Arranger or Documentation Agent shall have any obligation, duty or responsibility under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents. Furthermore, each Joint Lead Arranger or the Documentation Agent may at any time resign hereunder by providing written notice of such resignation to the Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower.

To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless any Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Credit Agreement Parties shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.

(b) Neither any Agent nor any Indemnified Person shall be responsible or liable to any Credit Party or any other Person for (x) any determination made by it pursuant to this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Indemnified Person (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment), (y) any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems or (z) any indirect, special, exemplary, incidental, punitive or consequential damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) which may be alleged as a result of this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document or the financing contemplated hereby.

13.04 Benefit of Agreement; Assignments; Participations, etc. (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, neither Borrower may assign or transfer any of its rights, obligations or interest hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lenders and, provided, further, that, although any Lender may transfer, assign or grant participations in its rights hereunder, such Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder (and may not transfer or assign all or any portion of its Commitments hereunder except as provided in Sections 2.13 and 13.04(b)) and the transferee, assignee or participant, as the case may be, shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder and, provided, further, that no Lender shall transfer or grant any participation under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan, Note or Letter of Credit (unless such Letter of Credit is not extended beyond the Revolving Loan Maturity Date) in which such participant is participating (it being understood and agreed that any proviso to the definition of any Maturity Date may be modified so long as the effect thereof is not to extend the respective Maturity Date beyond the date set forth in the respective definition (before giving effect to the proviso thereto) and that no participant shall be granted any rights of approval in connection therewith), or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or Fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof (it being understood that any amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement or to Section 13.07(a) shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or Fees payable hereunder), or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Total Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment (or the available portion thereof) or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by either Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (iii) except as otherwise expressly provided in the Security Documents, release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all the Security Documents supporting the Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder in which such participant is participating.

-187-

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender (or any Lender together with one or more other Lenders) may (x) assign all or a portion of its Commitments and related outstanding Obligations (or, if the Commitments with respect to the relevant Tranche have terminated, outstanding Obligations) hereunder to (i)(A) its parent company and/or any affiliate of such Lender which is at least 50% owned by such Lender or its parent company or (B) to one or more other Lenders or any affiliate of any such other Lender which is at least 50% owned by such other Lender or its parent company (provided that any fund that invests in loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of another fund which is a Lender (or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor) shall be treated as an affiliate of such other Lender for the purposes of this subclause (x)(i)(B)); provided that no such assignment may be made to any such Person that is, or would at such time constitute, a Defaulting Lender, or (ii) in the case of any Lender that is a fund that invests in loans, any other fund that invests in loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of any Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor or (y) assign all, or if less than all, a portion equal to at least $1,000,000 (or, in the case of Commitments and Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, CDN $1,000,000) in the aggregate for the assigning Lender or assigning Lenders, of such Commitments and related outstanding Obligations (or, if the Commitments with respect to the relevant Tranche have terminated, outstanding Obligations) hereunder to one or more Eligible Transferees (treating any fund that invests in loans and any other fund that invests in loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of such fund or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor as a single Eligible Transferee), each of which assignees shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender by execution of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (which Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall contain an acknowledgement and agreement by the respective assignee that, as Lender, it shall be subject to, and bound by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement), provided that (i) at such time, Schedule 2.01 shall be deemed modified to reflect the Commitments and/or outstanding Loans, as the case may be, of such new Lender and of the existing Lenders, (ii) upon the surrender of the relevant Notes by the assigning Lender (or, upon such assigning Lender’s indemnifying the respective Borrower for any lost Note pursuant to a customary indemnification agreement) new Notes will be issued, at the respective Borrower’s expense, to such new Lender and to the assigning Lender upon the request of such new Lender or assigning Lender, such new Notes to be in conformity with the requirements of Section 2.05 (with appropriate modifications) to the extent needed to reflect the revised Commitments and/or outstanding Loans, as the case may be, (iii) the consent of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default then exists, the consent of the U.S. Borrower shall (in either case) be required in connection with any such assignment pursuant to clause (y) above (other than any such assignment by any Agent or any of its Affiliates prior to the Syndication Date) (which consents, in any such case, shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that the U.S. Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after having received notice thereof, (iv) (A) the consent of the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Lender set forth in clause (i) of the definition thereof shall be required in connection with any assignment of U.S. Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments and (B) the consent of each Issuing Lender set forth in clause (ii) of the definition thereof shall be required in connection with any assignment of Canadian Borrower Revolving Loan Commitments, in each case, pursuant to this Section 13.04(b) (which consents, in any such case, shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (v) the Administrative Agent shall receive at the time of each such assignment, from the assigning or assignee Lender, the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $3,500 and (vi) no such transfer or assignment will be effective until recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register pursuant to Section 13.15. To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this Section 13.04(b), the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Commitments and outstanding Loans. At the time of each assignment pursuant to this Section 13.04(b) (A) to a Person which is not already a Lender hereunder and which is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for Federal income tax purposes, the respective assignee Lender shall, to the extent legally entitled to do so, provide to the U.S. Borrower the appropriate Internal Revenue Service Forms (and, if applicable, a Section 5.04(b)(ii) Certificate) described in Section 5.04(b) and (B) to a Person that is not already a Lender hereunder and that is a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code for Federal income tax purposes, the respective assignee Lender shall, to the extent legally entitled to do so, provide to the U.S. Borrower the appropriate Internal Revenue Service Forms described in Section 5.04(c). To the extent that an assignment of all or any portion of a Lender’s Commitments and related outstanding Obligations pursuant to Section 2.13 or this Section 13.04(b) would, at the time of such assignment, result in increased costs under Section 2.10, 3.06 or 5.04 from those being charged by the respective assigning Lender prior to such assignment, then the Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrowers, in accordance with and pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement, shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective assignment). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, at any time after the termination of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment, if any Revolving Loans or Letters of Credit remain outstanding, assignments may be made as provided above, except that the respective assignment shall be of a portion of the outstanding Revolving Loans of the respective RL Lender and its participation in Letters of Credit and its obligation to make Mandatory U.S. RL Borrowing, although any such assignment effected after the termination of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment shall not release the assigning RL Lender from its obligations as a participant with respect to outstanding Letters of Credit or to fund its share of any Mandatory U.S. RL Borrowing (although the respective assignee may agree, as between itself and the respective assigning RL Lender, that it shall be responsible for such amounts). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any sale or assignment pursuant to this Section 13.04(b) to a Sponsor Affiliate shall be made via an assignment, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (a “Sponsor Affiliate Assignment and Assumption”), in accordance with this Section 13.04(b), and, notwithstanding any provision in this Section 13.04(b) to the contrary, with the applicable consents required pursuant to this Section 13.04(b).

-188-

(c) The U.S. Borrower shall also be entitled to purchase (from Lenders) outstanding principal of Term Loans in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.19 and 2.20, which purchases shall be evidenced by assignments (in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) from the respective Lender to the U.S. Borrower. No such assignment will be effective until recorded by the Administrative Agent (in a manner consistent with the following sentence) on the Register pursuant to Section 13.15. All Term Loans purchased pursuant to Section 2.19 and 2.20 shall be immediately and automatically cancelled and retired, and the U.S. Borrower shall in no event become a Lender hereunder. To the extent of any assignment to the U.S. Borrower as described in this clause (c), the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to the assigned Term Loans.

(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its Loans and Notes hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank and, with prior notification to the Administrative Agent (but without the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers), any Lender which is a fund may pledge all or any portion of its Loans and Notes to its trustee or to a collateral agent providing credit or credit support to such Lender in support of its obligations to such trustee, such collateral agent or a holder of such obligations, as the case may be. No pledge pursuant to this clause (c) shall release the transferor Lender from any of its obligations hereunder.

(e) Each Lender acknowledges and agrees to comply with the provisions of Section 13.04 applicable to it as a Lender hereunder.

(f) Each Sponsor Affiliate, solely in its capacity as a B Term Loan Lender, hereby agrees, and each Sponsor Affiliate Assignment and Assumption shall provide a confirmation, that, if any Credit Party shall be subject to any voluntary or involuntary proceeding commenced under any Debtor Relief Law now or hereafter in effect (“Bankruptcy Proceedings”), (A) such Sponsor Affiliate shall not take any step or action in such Bankruptcy Proceeding to object to, impede, or delay the exercise of any right or the taking of any action by the Administrative Agent (or the taking of any action by a third party that is supported by the Administrative Agent) in relation to such Sponsor Affiliate’s claim with respect to its B Term Loans (a “Claim”) (including, without limitation, objecting to any debtor in possession financing, use of cash collateral, grant of adequate protection, sale or disposition, compromise, or plan of reorganization) so long as such Sponsor Affiliate is treated in connection with such exercise or action on the same or better terms as the other B Term Loan Lenders and (B) with respect to any matter requiring the vote of B Term Loan Lenders during the pendency of a Bankruptcy Proceeding (including, without limitation, voting on any plan of reorganization), the B Term Loans held by such Sponsor Affiliate (and any Claim with respect thereto) shall be deemed to be voted by such Sponsor Affiliate in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Sponsor Affiliates, so long as such Sponsor Affiliate is treated in connection with the exercise of such right or taking of such action on the same or better terms as the other B Term Loan Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders and each Sponsor Affiliate agree and acknowledge that the provisions set forth in this Section 13.04(f) constitute a “subordination agreement” as such term is contemplated by, and utilized in, Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, and, as such, would be enforceable for all purposes in any case where a Credit Party has filed for protection under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect applicable to Credit Loan Party. Except as expressly provided in this Section 13.04(f), the provisions of this Section 13.04(f) shall not be applicable to any Sponsor Debt Fund.

-189-

(g) If any Borrower wishes to replace the Loans or Commitments with Loans or Commitments having different terms, it shall have the option, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three Business Days’ advance notice to the Lenders of such Loans or holdings such Commitments, instead of prepaying the Loans or reducing or terminating the Commitments to be replaced, to (i) require such Lenders to assign such Loans or Commitments to the Administrative Agent or its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in accordance with Section 13.12 (with such replacement, if applicable, being deemed to have been made pursuant to Section 13.12). Pursuant to any such assignment, all Loans and Commitments to be replaced shall be purchased at par (allocated among the applicable Lenders in the same manner as would be required if such Loans were being optionally prepaid or such Commitments were being optionally reduced or terminated by the Borrowers), accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon and any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.08. By receiving such purchase price, the applicable Lenders shall automatically be deemed to have assigned such Loans or Commitments pursuant to the terms of an Assignment and Acceptance, and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this paragraph are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security interests in the Collateral during any such replacement.

13.05 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower or any other Credit Party and the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other Credit Document expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies which the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

13.06 Payments Pro Rata. (a) The Administrative Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of any Credit Party in respect of any Obligations of such Credit Party, it shall, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, distribute such payment to the Lenders (other than any Lender that has consented in writing to waive its pro rata share of such payment) pro rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received.

-190-

(b) Each of the Lenders agrees that, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents, or otherwise) which is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans, Unpaid Drawings or Fees, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations of the respective Credit Party to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all of the Lenders in such amount; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of the preceding Sections 13.06(a) and (b) shall be subject to (x) the express provisions of this Agreement which require, or permit, differing payments to be made to Non-Defaulting Lenders as opposed to Defaulting Lenders, (y) the express provisions of this Agreement which permit disproportionate payments with respect to various of the Tranches as, and to the extent, provided herein, and (z) the express provisions of Sections 2.19, 2.20, 5.02(b) and 13.12(b), which permit disproportionate payments with respect to the Loans as, and to the extent, provided therein.

13.07 Calculations; Computations. (a) The financial statements to be furnished to the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except as set forth in the notes thereto); provided that (i) except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all computations of Excess Cash Flow and the Applicable Margin, and all computations and all definitions (including accounting terms) used in determining compliance with Sections 9.15 and 10.07 through 10.09, inclusive, shall utilize generally accepted accounting principles and policies in conformity with those used to prepare the audited financial statements of Holdings referred to in Section 8.05(a)(i) for the fiscal year of Holdings ended September 27, 2009 and, (ii) to the extent expressly provided herein, certain calculations shall be made on a Pro Forma Basis; provided further, that if the U.S. Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the U.S. Borrower wishes to amend the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio or any financial definition used therein to implement the effect of any change in GAAP or the application thereof occurring after the Effective Date on the operation thereof (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the U.S. Borrower that the Required Lenders wish to amend the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio or any financial definition used therein for such purpose), then the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall negotiate in good faith to amend the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio or the definitions used therein (subject to the approval of the Required Lenders) to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such changes in GAAP; provided further that all determinations made pursuant to the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio or any financial definition used therein shall be determined on the basis of GAAP as applied and in effect immediately before the relevant change in GAAP or the application thereof became effective, until the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio or such financial definition is amended. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made, without giving effect to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 141R or ASC 805 (or any other financial accounting standard having a similar result or effect).

-191-

(b) All computations of interest (other than interest based on the Prime Rate or the Canadian Prime Rate), Commitment Commission and other Fees (other than Drawing Fees) hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day; except that in the case of Letter of Credit Fees and Facing Fees, the last day shall be included) occurring in the period for which such interest, Commitment Commission or Fees are payable. All computations of interest based determined by reference to the Prime Rate or Canadian Prime Rate shall be based on a 365-day or 366-day year, as the case may be.

(c) For purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), (i) whenever any interest or fee under this Agreement is calculated using a rate based on a year of 360 days or 365 days, as the case may be, the rate determined pursuant to such calculation, when expressed as an annual rate, is equivalent to (x) the applicable rate based on a year of 360 days or 365 days, as the case may be, (y) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which such annual rate is to be ascertained, and (z) divided by 360 or 365, as the case may be; (ii) the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement; and (iii) the rates of interest stipulated in this Agreement are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.

(d) If any provision of this Agreement or of any of the other Credit Documents would obligate any Canadian Credit Party to make any payment of interest with respect to the Obligations or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would result in a receipt by that Lender of “interest” with respect to the Obligations at a “criminal rate” (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)) then, notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rates shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not so result in a receipt by that Lender of interest with respect to the Obligations at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, as follows: (i) first, by reducing the amount or rates of interest required to be paid to the affected Lender under Section 2.08; and (ii) thereafter, by reducing any charges, fees, commissions, expenses, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to the affected Lender which would constitute “interest” with respect to the Obligations for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if any Lender shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by that Section of the Criminal Code (Canada), then the Canadian Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in writing to the affected Lender, to obtain reimbursement from that Lender in an amount equal to such excess, and pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by that Lender to Canadian Borrower. Any amount or rate of interest on the Obligations referred to in this Section 13.07(d) shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term that the applicable Loan or Loans remain outstanding on the assumption that any charges, fees, commissions, expenses, premiums and other amounts that fall within the meaning of “interest” (as defined in the Criminal Code (Canada)) shall, if they relate to a specific period of time, be pro-rated over that period of time and otherwise be prorated over the period from the Initial Borrowing Date to the applicable Maturity Date and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive for the purposes of such determination.

-192-

(e) The calculation of any financial ratios under this Agreement shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a rounding-down if there is no nearest number).

IF FOR ANY REASON SUCH DESIGNEE, APPOINTEE AND AGENT SHALL CEASE TO BE AVAILABLE TO ACT AS SUCH, THE CANADIAN BORROWER AGREES TO DESIGNATE A NEW DESIGNEE, APPOINTEE AND AGENT IN NEW YORK CITY ON THE TERMS AND FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS PROVISION REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH COURTS LACK PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER IT, AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM, IN ANY LEGAL ACTION PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS BROUGHT IN ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS, THAT SUCH COURTS LACK PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER IT.

-195-

(b) If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination of any of the provisions of this Agreement as contemplated by clauses (i) through (v), inclusive, of the first proviso to Section 13.12(a), the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained, then the Borrower shall have the right, so long as all non-consenting Lenders whose individual consent is required are treated as described in either clauses (A) or (B) below, to either (A) replace each such non-consenting Lender or Lenders with one or more Replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 2.13 so long as at the time of such replacement, each such Replacement Lender consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination or (B) terminate such non-consenting Lender’s Commitments and/or repay each Tranche of outstanding Loans of such Lender in accordance with Sections 4.02(b) and/or 5.01(b), provided that, unless the Commitments that are terminated, and Loans repaid, pursuant to preceding clause (B) are immediately replaced in full at such time through the addition of new Lenders or the increase of the Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of existing Lenders (who in each case must specifically consent thereto), then in the case of any action pursuant to preceding clause (B) the Required Lenders (determined after giving effect to the proposed action) shall specifically consent thereto, provided, further, that in any event the Borrower shall not have the right to replace a Lender, terminate its Commitments or repay its Loans solely as a result of the exercise of such Lender’s rights (and the withholding of any required consent by such Lender) pursuant to the second proviso to Section 13.12(a).

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in clause (a) above of this Section 13.12, the respective Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Incremental Term Loan Lender or Incremental RL Lender, as the case may be, may, in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.15 and 2.16, enter into an Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement or Incremental RL Commitment Agreement, as the case may be, provided that after the execution and delivery by the respective Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each such Incremental Term Loan Lender or Incremental RL Lender, as the case may be, of such Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement or Incremental RL Commitment Agreement, as the case may be, such Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement or Incremental RL Commitment Agreement, as the case may be, may thereafter only be modified in accordance with the requirements of clause (a) above of this Section 13.12.

-196-

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clause (a) above of this Section 13.12, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) (i) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower, (x) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents with the Loan and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (y) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and (ii) with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the U.S. Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans, to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Loans (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche denominated in Dollars (“Replacement Term Loans”) hereunder; provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (b) the Applicable Margin for such Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than the Applicable Margin for such Refinanced Term Loans, (c) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing (except to the extent of nominal amortization for periods where amortization has been eliminated as a result of prepayment of the Loans) and (d) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of the Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any fee letter may be amended, or rights and privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto.

(f) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender will not be entitled to vote in respect of amendments, waivers and consents hereunder and the Commitment and the outstanding Loans or other extensions of credit of such Lender hereunder will not be taken into account in determining whether the Majority Lenders, the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as required, have approved any such amendment, waiver or consent (and the definitions of “Majority Lenders” and “Required Lenders” will automatically be deemed modified accordingly for the duration of such period); provided that any such amendment or waiver that would increase or extend the term of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, extend the date fixed for the payment of principal or interest owing to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, reduce the principal amount of any obligation owing to such Defaulting Lender, reduce the amount of or the rate or amount of interest on any amount owing to such Defaulting Lender or of any fee payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or alter the terms of this proviso, will require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

(g) Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.08, if following the Effective Date, the Administrative Agent and any Credit Party shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of the Credit Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Credit Parties shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Credit Documents if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.

13.13 Survival. All indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation, in Sections 2.10, 2.11, 3.06, 5.04, 12.07 and 13.01 shall survive the execution, delivery and termination of this Agreement and the Notes and the making and repayment of the Obligations.

13.14 Domicile of Loans. Each Lender may transfer and carry its Loans at, to or for the account of any office, Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent that a transfer of Loans pursuant to this Section 13.14 would, at the time of such transfer, result in increased costs under Section 2.10, 2.11, 3.06 or 5.04 from those being charged by the respective Lender prior to such transfer, then the Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrowers shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective transfer).

13.15 Register. The Borrowers hereby designate the Administrative Agent to serve as their agent, solely for purposes of this Section 13.15, to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which it will record the Commitments from time to time of each of the Lenders, the Loans made by each of the Lenders and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each Lender. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loans. With respect to any Lender, the transfer of the Commitments of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made pursuant to such Commitments shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent with respect to ownership of such Commitments and Loans and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitments and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Commitments and Loans shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to Section 13.04(b). Coincident with the delivery of such an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to the Administrative Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Lender shall surrender the Note (if any) evidencing such Loan, and thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the assigning or transferor Lender and/or the new Lender at the request of any such Lender. The registration of any provision of Incremental Term Loan Commitments pursuant to Section 2.15 or Incremental RL Commitment pursuant to Section 2.16, as the case may be, shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance of the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Incremental Commitment Agreement. Coincident with the delivery of such Incremental Commitment Agreement for acceptance and registration of the provision of an Incremental Term Loan Commitment or Incremental RL Commitment, as the case may be, or as soon thereafter as practicable, to the extent requested by such Incremental Lenders and Incremental Term Notes or Revolving Notes, as the case may be, shall be issued, at the respective Borrower’s expense, to such Incremental Lenders, to be in conformity with Section 2.05 (with appropriate modification) to the extent needed to reflect the Incremental Term Loan Commitments or Incremental RL Commitment, as the case may be, and outstanding Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Loans made by such Incremental Lender.

13.16 Confidentiality. (a) Subject to the provisions of clause (b) of this Section 13.16, each Agent, Joint Lead Arranger, Documentation Agent and Lender agrees that it will use its reasonable best efforts not to disclose without the prior consent of the Borrowers (other than to its employees, auditors, advisors or counsel or to another Lender if such Lender or such Lender’s holding or parent company in its sole discretion determines that any such party should have access to such information, provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 13.16 to the same extent as such Lender) any information with respect to the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries which is now or in the future furnished pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document, provided that any Lender may disclose any such information (i) as has become generally available to the public other than by virtue of a breach of this Section 13.16(a) by the respective Lender, (ii) as may be required or appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any municipal, state or Federal regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Lender or to the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar organizations (whether in the United States or elsewhere) or their successors, (iii) as may be required or appropriate in respect to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, (iv) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to such Lender, (v) to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, (vi) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in any swap, hedge or similar agreement (or to any such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor), so long as such contractual counterparty (or such professional advisor) agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 13.16, and (vii) to any prospective or actual transferee, pledgee or participant in connection with any contemplated transfer, pledge or participation of any of the Notes or Commitments or any interest therein by such Lender, provided that such prospective transferee, pledge or participant agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions contained in this Section 13.16; provided, further, that, to the extent permitted pursuant to any applicable law, order, regulation or ruling, and other than in connection with credit and other bank examinations conducted in the ordinary course with respect to such Lender, in the case of any disclosure pursuant to the foregoing clauses (ii), (iii) or (iv), such Lender will use its commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Borrowers in advance of such disclosure so as to afford the Borrowers the opportunity to protect the confidentiality of the information proposed to be so disclosed.

(b) The Borrowers hereby acknowledge and agree that each Lender may share with any of its affiliates, and such affiliates may share with such Lender, any information related to the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, any non-public customer information regarding the creditworthiness of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries), provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 13.16 to the same extent as such Lender.

13.17 USA Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender hereby notifies each Credit Agreement Party that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub.: 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each Credit Agreement Party, which information includes the name of each Credit Agreement Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify each Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act, and each Credit Agreement Party agrees to provide such information from time to time to any Lender.

13.18 Designation as “Designated Senior Debt”. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that the Indebtedness pursuant to this Agreement and the guarantee of such Indebtedness by the Subsidiary Guarantors pursuant to the Subsidiaries Guaranty constitutes “Designated Senior Debt” under, as defined in, the Existing Senior Subordinated Notes Indenture.

-199-

13.19 Special Provisions Regarding Pledges of Equity Interests in Persons Not Organized in Qualified Jurisdictions. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the provisions of the various Security Documents executed and delivered by the Credit Parties require that, among other things, all Equity Interests in, various Persons owned by the respective Credit Party be pledged, and delivered for pledge, pursuant to the Security Documents. The parties hereto further acknowledge and agree that each Credit Party shall be required to take all actions under the laws of the jurisdiction in which such Credit Party is organized to create and perfect all security interests granted pursuant to the various Security Documents and to take all actions under the laws of the United States and Canada to perfect the security interests in the Equity Interests of any Person organized under the laws of said jurisdictions (to the extent said Equity Interests are owned by any Credit Party). Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, to the extent any Security Document requires or provides for the pledge of Equity Interests in any Person organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than those specified in the immediately preceding sentence, it is acknowledged that, as of the Initial Borrowing Date, no actions have been required to be taken to perfect, under local law of the jurisdiction of the Person who issued the respective promissory notes or whose Equity Interests are pledged, under the Security Documents. The Credit Agreement Parties hereby agree that, following any reasonable request by the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders to do so, each Credit Agreement Party shall, and shall cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to, take such actions (including, without limitation, the execution of Additional Security Documents, the making of any filings and the delivery of appropriate legal opinions) under the local law of any jurisdiction with respect to which such actions have not already been taken as are determined by the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders to be necessary or, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, advisable in order to fully perfect, preserve or protect the security interests granted pursuant to the various Security Documents under the laws of such jurisdictions. If requested to do so pursuant to this Section 13.19, all such actions shall be taken in accordance with the provisions of this Section 13.19 and Section 9.12 and within the time periods set forth therein. All conditions and representations contained in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to effect the foregoing and so that same are not violated by reason of the failure to take actions under local law (but only with respect to Equity Interests in Persons organized under laws of jurisdictions other than the United States or Canada) not required to be taken in accordance with the provisions of this Section 13.19, provided that to the extent any representation or warranty would not be true because the foregoing actions were not taken, the respective representation of warranties shall be required to be true and correct in all material respects at such time as the respective action is required to be taken in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.19 or pursuant to Section 9.12.

13.20 Powers of Attorney; etc. Each of Holdings and the U.S. Borrower is hereby authorized by, and on behalf of, the Canadian Borrower to (x) give Notices of Borrowing, Notices of Conversion/Continuation and other notices and directions in connection with the extensions of credit and repayments thereof to be made pursuant to this Agreement to the Canadian Borrower (including without limitation notices as to the application of proceeds of such extensions of credit) and (y) receive any notices hereunder and under any other Credit Document on its behalf. The Canadian Borrower hereby grants to each of Holdings and the U.S. Borrower an irrevocable power-of attorney, in the Canadian Borrower’s name, to take the actions contemplated above in this Section 13.20 and in the last sentence of Section 2.13 hereof. Furthermore, the Canadian Borrower agrees that the Agents and the Lenders may at any time rely upon any notices, instructions or other information furnished by Holdings or the U.S. Borrower.

-200-

13.21 Waiver of Sovereign Immunity. Each of the Credit Agreement Parties, in respect of itself, its Subsidiaries, its process agents, and its properties and revenues, hereby irrevocably agrees that, to the extent that such Credit Agreement Party, its Subsidiaries or any of its properties has or may hereafter acquire any right of immunity, whether characterized as sovereign immunity or otherwise, from any legal proceedings, whether in the United States, Canada or elsewhere, to enforce or collect upon the Loans or any Credit Document or any other liability or obligation of such Credit Agreement Party or any of its Subsidiaries related to or arising from the transactions contemplated by any of the Credit Documents, including, without limitation, immunity from service of process, immunity from jurisdiction or judgment of any court or tribunal, immunity from execution of a judgment, and immunity of any of its property from attachment prior to any entry of judgment, or from attachment in aid of execution upon a judgment, such Credit Agreement Party, for itself and on behalf of its Subsidiaries, hereby expressly waives, to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, any such immunity, and agrees not to assert any such right or claim in any such proceeding, whether in the United States, Canada or elsewhere. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Credit Agreement Party further agrees that the waivers set forth in this Section 13.21 shall have the fullest extent permitted under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 of the United States and are intended to be irrevocable for purposes of such Act.

13.22 Judgment Currency. (a) The Credit Parties’ obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents to make payments in the respective Applicable Currency (the “Obligation Currency”) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the respective Issuing Lender or the respective Lender of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents. If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Credit Party in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the Canadian Dollar Equivalent or the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof, as the case may be, and, in the case of other currencies, the rate of exchange (as quoted by the Administrative Agent or if the Administrative Agent does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a known dealer in such currency designated by the Administrative Agent) determined, in each case, as of the day on which the judgment is given (such day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).

(b) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due by any Borrower, such Borrower covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate or exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

(c) For purposes of determining the U.S. Dollar Equivalent or the Canadian Dollar Equivalent or any other rate of exchange for this Section, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency. If the amount of the Judgment Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the Lenders in the Judgment Currency, the Lenders shall, except during the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default under Sections 11.01 or 11.05 (in which case such excess shall be applied by such Lender to any outstanding Obligations owed to such Lender by any Credit Party), remit such excess to the relevant Borrower.

-201-

13.23 Absence of Financial Assistance by Canadian Borrower. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (i) the Obligations of the U.S. Borrower and of Holdings under this Agreement are solely those of the U.S. Borrower or Holdings, as the case may be, and not the Canadian Borrower (which shall have no liability therefor), and (ii) any indemnities or other amounts owing under Section 13.01 for which the Credit Agreement Parties may be deemed to be jointly and severally liable shall instead constitute the joint and several obligations of the U.S. Borrower and of Holdings only and shall not be obligations of the Canadian Borrower under this Agreement.

13.24 Effectiveness of Merger. Upon the consummation of the Merger, the U.S. Borrower shall automatically succeed to all the rights and obligations of Merger Sub under this Agreement, without any further action by any Person.

13.25 INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. (a) EACH LENDER PARTY HERETO UNDERSTANDS, ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IT (AND EACH OF ITS SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS) AND EACH OTHER LENDER (AND EACH OF THEIR SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS) SHALL BE BOUND BY THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT, WHICH IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES MAY REQUIRE (AS MORE FULLY PROVIDED THEREIN) THE TAKING OF CERTAIN ACTIONS BY THE LENDERS, INCLUDING THE PURCHASE AND SALE OF PARTICIPATIONS BY VARIOUS LENDERS (OTHER THAN CANADIAN BORROWER RL LENDERS IN THEIR CAPACITIES AS SUCH) TO EACH OTHER IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS THEREOF.

(b) THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 13.25 ARE NOT INTENDED TO SUMMARIZE OR FULLY DESCRIBE THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. REFERENCE MUST BE MADE TO THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT ITSELF TO UNDERSTAND ALL TERMS AND CONDITIONS THEREOF. EACH LENDER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MAKING ITS OWN ANALYSIS AND REVIEW OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT AND THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS THEREOF, AND NO AGENT OR ANY OF AFFILIATES MAKES ANY REPRESENTATION TO ANY LENDER AS TO THE SUFFICIENCY OR ADVISABILITY OF THE PROVISIONS CONTAINED IN THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. A COPY OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.

(c) THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT IS AN AGREEMENT SOLELY AMONGST THE LENDERS (AND THEIR SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS) AND IS NOT AN AGREEMENT TO WHICH HOLDINGS OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES IS PARTY. AS MORE FULLY PROVIDED THEREIN, THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT CAN ONLY BE AMENDED BY THE PARTIES THERETO IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS THEREOF.

-202-

13.26 Absence of Fiduciary Relationship. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any provision of any other Credit Document, (i) none of the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Documentation Agent or any Lender shall, solely by reason of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, have any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship or duty in respect of any Lender or any other Person and (ii) each Credit Agreement Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims it may have against any Joint Lead Arranger, the Documentation Agent or any Lender for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty.

Section 14. Credit Agreement Party Guaranty.

14.01 The Guaranty. In order to induce the Agents, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit hereunder, and to induce the other Guaranteed Creditors to enter into Designated Interest Rate Protection Agreements in recognition of the direct benefits to be received by each Credit Agreement Party from the proceeds of the Loans, the issuance of the Letters of Credit and the entering into of such Designated Interest Rate Protection Agreements, each Credit Agreement Party hereby agrees with the Guaranteed Creditors as follows: each Credit Agreement Party hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees as primary obligor and not merely as surety the full and prompt payment when due, whether upon maturity, acceleration or otherwise, of any and all of its Relevant Guaranteed Obligations to the Guaranteed Creditors. If any or all of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations of any Credit Agreement Party to the Guaranteed Creditors becomes due and payable hereunder, such Credit Agreement Party, unconditionally and irrevocably, promises to pay such indebtedness to the Administrative Agent and/or the other Guaranteed Creditors, or order, on demand, together with any and all expenses which may be incurred by the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Creditors in collecting any of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations. This Credit Agreement Party Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. This Credit Agreement Party Guaranty is a continuing one and all liabilities to which it applies or may apply under the terms hereof shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance hereon. If claim is ever made upon any Guaranteed Creditor for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations and any of the aforesaid payees repays all or part of said amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its property or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such payee with any such claimant (including any Relevant Guaranteed Party), then and in such event the respective Credit Agreement Party agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon such Credit Agreement Party, notwithstanding any revocation of this Credit Agreement Party Guaranty or any other instrument evidencing any liability of any Relevant Guaranteed Party, and each Credit Agreement Party shall be and remain liable to the aforesaid payees hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by any such payee.

14.02 Bankruptcy. Additionally, each Credit Agreement Party unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the payment of any and all of its Relevant Guaranteed Obligations to the Guaranteed Creditors whether or not due or payable by any Relevant Guaranteed Party upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 11.05, and irrevocably and unconditionally promises to pay such indebtedness to the Guaranteed Creditors, or order, on demand, in lawful money of the United States.

-203-

14.03 Nature of Liability. The liability of each Credit Agreement Party hereunder is primary, absolute and unconditional, exclusive and independent of any security for or other guaranty of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations, whether executed by any other guarantor or by any other party, and each Credit Agreement Party understands and agrees, to the fullest extent permitted under law, that the liability of such Credit Agreement Party hereunder shall not be affected or impaired by (a) any direction as to application of payment by any Relevant Guaranteed Party or by any other party, or (b) any other continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other party as to the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations, or (c) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking (other than payment in cash of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations), or (d) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by any Relevant Guaranteed Party, or (e) any payment made to any Guaranteed Creditor on the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations which any such Guaranteed Creditor repays to any Relevant Guaranteed Party pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding, and each Credit Agreement Party waives any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding, or (f) any action or inaction by the Guaranteed Creditors as contemplated in Section 14.05, or (g) any invalidity, irregularity or enforceability of all or any part of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations or of any security therefor.

14.04 Independent Obligation. The obligations of each Credit Agreement Party hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other guarantor, any other party or any Relevant Guaranteed Party, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any Credit Agreement Party whether or not action is brought against any other guarantor, any other party or any Relevant Guaranteed Party and whether or not any other guarantor, any other party or any Relevant Guaranteed Party be joined in any such action or actions. Each Credit Agreement Party waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by any Relevant Guaranteed Party or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to such Relevant Guaranteed Party shall operate to toll the statute of limitations as to the relevant Credit Agreement Party.

14.05 Authorization. To the fullest extent permitted under law, each Credit Agreement Party authorizes the Guaranteed Creditors without notice or demand, and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder, from time to time to:

(a) change the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or change or extend the time of payment of, renew, increase, accelerate or alter, any of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest or fees thereon), any security therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof, and this Credit Agreement Party Guaranty shall apply to the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed or altered;

(b) take and hold security for the payment of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations and sell, exchange, release, impair, surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any property by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing, the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset there against;

(c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against any Relevant Guaranteed Party, any other Credit Party or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting;

(d) release or substitute any one or more endorsers, guarantors, any Relevant Guaranteed Party, other Credit Parties or other obligors;

-204-

(e) settle or compromise any of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of any Relevant Guaranteed Party to its creditors other than the Guaranteed Creditors;

(f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of any Relevant Guaranteed Party to the Guaranteed Creditors regardless of what liability or liabilities of such Relevant Guaranteed Party remain unpaid;

(g) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default under, this Agreement, any other Credit Document, any Designated Interest Rate Protection Agreement or any of the instruments or agreements referred to herein or therein, or otherwise amend, modify or supplement this Agreement, any other Credit Document, any Designated Interest Rate Protection Agreement or any of such other instruments or agreements; and/or

(h) take any other action which would, under otherwise applicable principles of common law, give rise to a legal or equitable discharge of such Credit Agreement Party from its liabilities under this Credit Agreement Party Guaranty.

14.06 Reliance. It is not necessary for any Guaranteed Creditor to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Relevant Guaranteed Party or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Relevant Guaranteed Obligations made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

14.07 Subordination. Any indebtedness of any Relevant Guaranteed Party now or hereafter owing to any Credit Agreement Party is hereby subordinated to the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations of such Relevant Guaranteed Party owing to the Guaranteed Creditors; and if the Administrative Agent so requests at a time when an Event of Default exists, all such indebtedness of such Relevant Guaranteed Party to such Credit Agreement Party shall be collected, enforced and received by such Credit Agreement Party for the benefit of the Guaranteed Creditors and be paid over to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Guaranteed Creditors on account of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations of such Relevant Guaranteed Party to the Guaranteed Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of any Credit Agreement Party under the other provisions of this Credit Agreement Party Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Credit Agreement Party hereby agrees with the Guaranteed Creditors that it will not exercise any right of subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Credit Agreement Party Guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) until all Relevant Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash.

-205-

14.08 Waiver. (a) Each Credit Agreement Party waives any right (except as shall be required by applicable law and cannot be waived) any right to require any Guaranteed Creditor to (i) proceed against any Relevant Guaranteed Party, any other guarantor or any other party, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Relevant Guaranteed Party, any other guarantor or any other party or (iii) pursue any other remedy in any Guaranteed Creditor’s power whatsoever. Each Credit Agreement Party waives any defense (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived) based on or arising out of any defense of any Relevant Guaranteed Party, any other guarantor or any other party, other than payment of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations to the extent of such payment, based on or arising out of the disability of any Relevant Guaranteed Party, any other guarantor or any other party, or the validity, legality or unenforceability of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Relevant Guaranteed Party other than payment of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations to the extent of such payment. The Guaranteed Creditors may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Guaranteed Creditor by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable (to the extent such sale is permitted by applicable law), or exercise any other right or remedy the Guaranteed Creditors may have against any Relevant Guaranteed Party or any other party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Credit Agreement Party hereunder except to the extent the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations have been paid. Each Credit Agreement Party waives, to the fullest extent permitted under law, any defense arising out of any such election by the Guaranteed Creditors, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Credit Agreement Party against any Relevant Guaranteed Party or any other party or any security.

(b) Each Credit Agreement Party waives, to the fullest extent permitted under law, all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including, without limitation, notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Credit Agreement Party Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Relevant Guaranteed Obligations. Each Credit Agreement Party assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of each Relevant Guaranteed Party’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which such Credit Agreement Party assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the other Guaranteed Creditors shall have any duty to advise any Credit Agreement Party of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.

14.09 Maximum Liability. It is the desire and intent of each Credit Agreement Party and the Guaranteed Creditors that this Credit Agreement Party Guaranty shall be enforced against such Credit Agreement Party to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If, however, and to the extent that, the obligations of any Credit Agreement Party under this Credit Agreement Party Guaranty shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers), then the amount of such Credit Agreement Party’s obligations under this Credit Agreement Party Guaranty shall be deemed to be reduced and such Credit Agreement Party shall pay the maximum amount of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations which would be permissible under applicable law.

14.10 Payments. All payments made by a Credit Agreement Party pursuant to this Section 14 will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense, and shall be subject to the provisions of Sections 5.03 and 5.04.

SCHEDULE 2.17

PROVISIONS RELATING TO

BANKERS’ ACCEPTANCES, DRAFT AND B/A EQUIVALENT NOTES

BANKERS’ ACCEPTANCES

Acceptances and Drafts.

1. Each Canadian Borrower RL Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and this Schedule 2.17 and from time to time on any Business Day prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date (i) in the case of a B/A Lender to create Bankers’ Acceptances by accepting Drafts and to purchase such Bankers’ Acceptances in accordance with Section 6 of this Schedule 2.17 and the Credit Agreement and (ii) in the case of a Non-B/A Lender, to purchase completed Drafts (which have not and will not be accepted by such Lender or any other Canadian Borrower RL Lender) in accordance with Section 6 of this Schedule 2.17 and the Credit Agreement.

Each Bankers’ Acceptance shall consist of the creation and purchase of Bankers’ Acceptances or the purchase of Drafts on the same day, in each case for the B/A Discount Proceeds, and shall be effected or arranged by the Canadian Borrower RL Lenders in accordance with Section 6 of this Schedule 2.17 and the Credit Agreement and their respective Commitments.

If the Canadian Sub-Agent determines that the Bankers’ Acceptances to be created and purchased or Drafts to be purchased on the making of any Bankers’ Acceptance Loan (upon a conversion or otherwise) will not be created and purchased ratably by the Canadian Borrower RL Lenders in accordance with this Schedule 2.17 and the Credit Agreement, then (i) the requested Face Amount of Bankers’ Acceptances and Drafts shall be reduced to such lesser amount as the Canadian Sub-Agent determines will permit ratable sharing and (x) the amount by which the requested Face Amount shall have been so reduced shall be converted or continued, as the case may be, as a Canadian Prime Rate Loan to be made contemporaneously with the making of such Bankers’ Acceptance Loan or (y) the Canadian Borrower may cancel part of, or withdraw in its entirety, the related Notice of Borrowing, or (ii) the Canadian Sub-Agent may, acting reasonably at the request of the Canadian Borrower, deem any Notice of Borrowing delivered in such circumstances of a Bankers’ Acceptance Loan to be, in its entirety, a Notice of Borrowing for Canadian Prime Rate Loans, and make a Canadian Prime Rate Loan to the Canadian Borrower in the full amount as originally requested as a Bankers’ Acceptance Loan in such Notice of Borrowing.

Form of Drafts.

Each Draft presented by the Canadian Borrower shall (i) be in a minimum Face Amount of Cdn.$l,000,000 and in an integral multiple of Cdn.$100,000, (ii) be dated the date of the making of such Bankers’ Acceptance Loan, and (iii) mature and be payable by the Canadian Borrower (in common with all other Drafts presented in connection with such Bankers’ Acceptance Loan) on a Business Day which occurs approximately 30, 60, 90 or 180 days (or such longer period as the Canadian Sub-Agent may agree) at the election of the Canadian Borrower after the Drawing Date and on or prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date.

Procedure for Drawing

Each Bankers’ Acceptance Loan shall be made on three Business Day’s prior notice given by the Canadian Borrower by way of a Notice of Borrowing to the Canadian Sub-Agent in accordance with Section 2.03 of the Credit Agreement.

Not later than 2:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on an applicable Drawing Date, each Canadian Borrower RL Lender shall complete one or more Drafts in accordance with the Notice of Borrowing and either (x) accept the Drafts and purchase the Bankers’ Acceptances so created for the B/A Discount Proceeds, or (y) purchase the Drafts for the B/A Discount Proceeds. In each case, upon receipt of the B/A Discount Proceeds and upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in Sections 6 and 7 of the Credit Agreement, as applicable, the Canadian Sub-Agent, at the direction of the Canadian Borrower, shall apply the B/A Discount Proceeds as follows: (i) remit to the Canadian Borrower (in the case of the making of a Canadian Revolving Loan), (ii) prepay Canadian Prime Rate Loans (which shall constitute a conversion of the Canadian Revolving Loans from Canadian Prime Rate Loans to Bankers’ Acceptance Loans) or (iii) pay Bankers’ Acceptances maturing on such date (which shall constitute a continuation of Bankers’ Acceptance Loans to new Bankers’ Acceptance Loans), provided that in the case of any such conversion or continuation of Loans, the Canadian Borrower shall pay to the Canadian Sub-Agent for account of the Canadian Borrower RL Lenders such additional amounts, if any, as shall be necessary to effect the prepayment in full of the respective Canadian Prime Rate Loans being prepaid, or the Bankers’ Acceptances maturing, on such date.

The Canadian Borrower shall, at the request of the Canadian Borrower RL Lender, issue one or more non-interest bearing promissory notes (each a “B/A Equivalent Note”) payable on the date of maturity of the unaccepted Draft referred to below, in such form as the Canadian Borrower RL Lender may specify and in a principal amount equal to the Face Amount of, and in exchange for, any unaccepted Drafts which the Canadian Borrower RL Lender has purchased in accordance with Section 6 of this Schedule 2.17 and the Credit Agreement.

Bankers’ Acceptances purchased by a Canadian Borrower RL Lender may be held by it for its own account until the contract maturity date or sold by it at any time prior to that date in any relevant Canadian market in such Person’s sole discretion. The Canadian Borrower hereby renounces, and shall not claim or request or require any Lender to claim, any days of grace for the payment of any Bankers’ Acceptance or other B/A Instrument.

Presigned Draft Forms.

To enable the Canadian Borrower RL Lenders to create Bankers’ Acceptances or complete Drafts in the manner specified in this Schedule 2.17 and the Credit Agreement, the Canadian Borrower shall supply each Canadian Borrower RL Lender with such number of Drafts as it may reasonably request, duly endorsed and executed on behalf of the Canadian Borrower. Each Canadian Borrower RL Lender is hereby authorized to issue such Bankers’ Acceptances endorsed in blank in such Face Amounts as may be determined by such Canadian Borrower RL Lender, provided that the aggregate amount thereof is equal to the aggregate amount of Bankers’ Acceptances required to be accepted by such Canadian Borrower RL Lender. None of the Canadian Borrower RL Lenders and their respective directors, officers, employees or representatives (collectively, “Canadian Borrower RL Lender Persons”) shall be responsible or liable for any such Canadian Borrower RL Lender’s failure to accept and/or purchase a B/A Instrument if the cause of such failure is, in whole or in part, due to the failure of the Canadian Borrower to provide duly executed and endorsed B/A Instruments to such Canadian Borrower RL Lender on a timely basis nor shall any such Canadian Borrower RL Lender Person be liable for any damage, loss or other claim arising by reason of any loss or improper use of any such instrument except loss or improper use arising by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct or fraud of such Canadian Borrower RL Lender Person, nor shall any such Canadian Borrower RL Lender Person be liable for any other action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under Section 9 or 10, except for such Canadian Borrower RL Lender Person’s own gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud. Each Canadian Borrower RL Lender will exercise such care in the custody and safekeeping of Drafts as it would exercise in the custody and safekeeping of similar property owned by it and will, upon request by the Canadian Borrower, promptly advise the Canadian Borrower of the number and designations, if any, of uncompleted Drafts held by it for the Canadian Borrower. The signature of any officer of the Canadian Borrower on a Draft may be mechanically reproduced and B/A Instruments bearing facsimile signature shall be binding upon the Canadian Borrower as if they had been manually signed. Even if the individuals whose manual or facsimile signature appears on any B/A Instrument no longer hold office at the date of signature, at the date of its acceptance by the Canadian Borrower RL Lender or at any time after such date, any B/A Instrument so signed shall be valid and binding upon the Canadian Borrower.

Upon the request of any Canadian Borrower RL Lender, the Canadian Borrower shall provide to such Canadian Borrower RL Lender a power of attorney to complete, sign, endorse and issue B/A Instruments on behalf of the Canadian Borrower in form and substance satisfactory to such Canadian Borrower RL Lender. Alternatively, at the request of any Canadian Borrower RL Lender, the Canadian Borrower shall deliver to such Lender a “depository xxxx” which complies with the requirements of the Depository Bills and Notes Act (Canada), and hereby consents to the deposit of any Bankers’ Acceptance in the form of a depository xxxx in the book-based debt clearance systems maintained by the Canadian Depository of Securities Limited or other recognized clearing house. In such circumstances, the delivery of Bankers’ Acceptances shall be governed by the clearance procedures established thereunder. The Canadian Borrower shall, by written notice to the Canadian Sub-Agent, designate the Persons authorized to give the Canadian Borrower RL Lenders instructions regarding the manner in which B/A Instruments are to be completed and the times at which they are to be issued and the Canadian Borrower RL Lenders shall only complete B/A Instruments under Sections 9 and 10 in accordance with such instructions.

Payment, Conversion or Renewal of B/A Instruments.

Upon the maturity of a B/A Instrument, the Canadian Borrower may (i) elect to issue a replacement B/A Instrument by giving a Notice of Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.03 of the Credit Agreement (provided that the Canadian Borrower shall pay to the Canadian Sub-Agent for the account of the Canadian Borrower RL Lenders such additional amounts, if any, as shall be necessary to effect payment in full of the Face Amount of the B/A Instrument maturing on such day), (ii) elect to have all or a portion of the Face Amount of the B/A Instrument converted to a Canadian Prime Rate Loan by giving a Notice of Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.03 of the Credit Agreement, or (iii) pay, on or before 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on the maturity date for the B/A Instrument, an amount in Canadian Dollars equal to the Face Amount of the B/A Instrument (notwithstanding that the Canadian Borrower RL Lender may be the holder of it at maturity). Any such payment in an amount in Canadian Dollars equal to the Face Amount of the B/A Instrument shall satisfy the Canadian Borrower’s obligations under the B/A Instrument to which it relates and the relevant Canadian Borrower RL Lender shall then be solely responsible for the payment of the B/A Instrument.

If the Canadian Borrower (i) fails to pay any B/A Instrument when due or (ii) fails to issue a replacement B/A Instrument which gives rise to B/A Discount Proceeds which together with additional amounts then paid to the Canadian Sub-Agent for the account of the Canadian Borrower RL Lenders in respect of such maturing B/A Instrument at least equal the Face Amount of such maturing B/A Instrument pursuant to Section 11 (i) hereof or (iii) fails to elect to convert all or a portion of the Face Amount of such B/A Instrument to a Canadian Prime Loan pursuant to Section 11 (ii) hereof, then the unpaid amount due and payable shall be converted to a Canadian Prime Rate Loan made by the Canadian Borrower RL Lenders ratably under the applicable Tranche and shall bear interest calculated and payable as provided in Section 2.08 of the Credit Agreement. This conversion shall occur as of the due date and without any necessity for the Canadian Borrower to give a Notice of Conversion/ Continuation.

On any date on which a Bankers’ Acceptance Loan is created, purchased, converted or continued, the Canadian Sub-Agent shall be entitled to net all amounts payable on such date by the Canadian Sub-Agent to a Canadian Borrower RL Lender against all amounts payable on such date by such Canadian Borrower RL Lender to the Canadian Sub-Agent. Similarly, on any such date the Canadian Borrower hereby authorizes each Canadian Borrower RL Lender to net all amounts payable on such date by such Canadian Borrower RL Lender to the Canadian Sub-Agent for the account of such Canadian Borrower, against all amounts payable on such date by such Canadian Borrower to such Canadian Borrower RL Lender in accordance with the Canadian Sub-Agent’s calculations.

Except for the requirement to pay immediately upon acceleration of the Canadian Borrower Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 11 of the Credit Agreement, the Canadian Borrower shall pay to the Canadian Sub-Agent an amount in Canadian Dollars equal to the Face Amount of each Bankers’ Acceptance Loan requested by the Canadian Borrower on the maturity date thereof (notwithstanding that the Canadian Borrower RL Lender may be the holder of it at maturity).

Circumstances Making Bankers’ Acceptances Unavailable.

If, by reason of circumstances affecting the money market generally, as determined in good faith by the Canadian Sub-Agent acting reasonably and in respect of which the Canadian Sub-Agent shall have given notice to the Canadian Borrower of the occurrence and particulars thereof, there is no market for Bankers’ Acceptances or Canadian Borrower RL Lenders cannot readily sell bankers’ acceptances or perform their obligations under the Credit Agreement with respect to bankers’ acceptances (i) the right of the Canadian Borrower to request a Bankers’ Acceptance Loan shall be suspended until the circumstances causing a suspension no longer exist, (ii) any applicable Notice of Borrowing which is outstanding shall either: (x) be cancelled and the requested Bankers’ Acceptance Loan shall not be made or (y) the Canadian Sub-Agent may, acting reasonably and taking into account any circumstances then affecting the Canadian Borrower RL Lenders and the availability of Loans, at the direction of the Canadian Borrower, deem the aforementioned Notice of Borrowing a Notice of Borrowing for Canadian Prime Rate Loans.

The Canadian Sub-Agent shall promptly notify the Canadian Borrower of the suspension of the Canadian Borrower’s right to request a Bankers’ Acceptance Loan and of the termination of any suspension.

SCHEDULE 2.19(a)

REVERSE DUTCH AUCTION PROCEDURES

This Schedule 2.19(a) is intended to summarize certain basic terms of the reverse Dutch auction procedures pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.19(a) of the Credit Agreement, of which this Schedule 2.19(a) is a part. It is not intended to be a definitive statement of all of the terms and conditions of a reverse Dutch auction, the definitive terms and conditions for which shall be set forth in the applicable offering document. None of the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager or any of their respective Affiliates, or any officers, directors, employees, agents or attorneys-in-fact of such Persons (together with the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, the “Agent-Related Person”) makes any recommendation pursuant to any offering document as to whether or not any Lender should sell B Term Loans or C Term Loans, as the case may be, to the respective Borrower pursuant to any offering documents, nor shall the decision by the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager or any other Agent-Related Person (or any of their affiliates) in its respective capacity as a Lender to sell its Term Loans to the respective Borrower be deemed to constitute such a recommendation. Each Lender should make its own decision on whether to sell any of its B Term Loans or C Term Loans, as the case may be, and, if it decides to do so, the principal amount of and price to be sought for such Term Loans. In addition, each Lender should consult its own attorney, business advisor or tax advisor as to legal, business, tax and related matters concerning each Auction and the relevant offering documents. Each Lender participating in an Auction acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such Auction, (1) the respective Borrower may have, and later may come into possession of, information regarding the B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans), that is not known to such Lender and that may be material to a decision by such Lender to participate in such Auction (“Excluded Information”), (2) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on the respective Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates, has made its own analysis and determination to participate in such Auction notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information and (3) none of the respective Borrower, its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against the respective Borrower, its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent and their respective Affiliates, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information. Each Lender participating in any Auction further acknowledges that the Excluded Information may not be available to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Schedule 2.19(a) have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.

(a) Notice Procedures. In connection with each Auction, the U.S. Borrower will provide notification to the Auction Manager (for distribution to the Lenders of the Term Loans (each, an “Auction Notice”). Each Auction Notice shall contain (i) the maximum principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans) that the U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, offers to purchase in such Auction (the “Auction Amount”), which shall be no less than $10,000,000 (unless another amount is agreed to by the Administrative Agent); (ii) the range of discounts to par (the “Discount Range”), expressed as a range of prices per $1,000 (in increments of $5), at which the respective Borrower would be willing to purchase B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans) in such Auction; and (iii) the date on which such Auction will conclude, on which date Return Bids (as defined below) will be due by 1:00 p.m. (as such date and time may be extended by the Auction Manager at the request of the respective Borrower as set forth below, such time the “Expiration Time”). Such Expiration Time may be extended for a period not exceeding three (3) Business Days upon notice by the respective Borrower to the Auction Manager received not less than 24 hours before the original Expiration Time; provided, that only one extension per offer shall be permitted. An Auction shall be regarded as a “failed auction” in the event that either (x) the respective Borrower withdraws such Auction in accordance with the terms hereof or (y) the Expiration Time occurs with no Qualifying Bids (as defined below) having been received. In the event of a failed auction, neither Borrower shall be permitted to deliver a new Auction Notice prior to the date occurring three (3) Business Days after such withdrawal or Expiration Time, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither Borrower shall initiate any Auction by delivering an Auction Notice to the Auction Manager until after the conclusion (whether successful or failed) of the previous Auction (if any), whether such conclusion occurs by withdrawal of such previous Auction or the occurrence of the Expiration Time of such previous Auction.

(b) Reply Procedures. In connection with any Auction, each Lender of B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans) wishing to participate in such Auction shall, prior to the Expiration Time, provide the Auction Manager with a notice of participation, in the form included in the respective offering document (each, a “Return Bid”) which shall specify (i) a discount to par that must be expressed as a price per $1,000 (in increments of $5) in principal amount of B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans) (the “Reply Price”) within the Discount Range and (ii) the principal amount of B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans), in an amount not less than $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, that such Lender offers for sale at its Reply Price (the “Reply Amount”). A Lender may submit a Reply Amount that is less than the minimum amount and incremental amount requirements described above only if the Reply Amount comprises the entire amount of the B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans) held by such Lender. Lenders may only submit one Return Bid per Auction but each Return Bid may contain up to three (3) component bids, each of which may result in a separate Qualifying Bid and each of which will not be contingent on any other component bid submitted by such Lender resulting in a Qualifying Bid. In addition to the Return Bid, the participating Lender must execute and deliver, to be held by the Auction Manager, an assignment and acceptance in the form included in the offering document (each, an “Auction Assignment and Assumption”). The respective Borrower will not purchase any B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans) at a price that is outside of the applicable Discount Range, nor will any Return Bids (including any component bids specified therein) submitted at a price that is outside such applicable Discount Range be considered in any calculation of the Applicable Threshold Price (as defined below).

(c) Acceptance Procedures. Based on the Reply Prices and Reply Amounts received by the Auction Manager, the Auction Manager, in consultation with the respective Borrower, will calculate the lowest purchase price (the “Applicable Threshold Price”) for such Auction within the Discount Range for such Auction that will allow the respective Borrower to complete the Auction by purchasing the full Auction Amount (or such lesser amount of B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans) for which the respective Borrower has received Qualifying Bids). The respective Borrower shall purchase B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans) from each Lender whose Return Bid is within the Discount Range and contains a Reply Price that is equal to or less than the Applicable Threshold Price (each, a “Qualifying Bid”). All B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans) included in Qualifying Bids (including multiple component Qualifying Bids contained in a single Return Bid) received at a Reply Price lower than the Applicable Threshold Price will be purchased at such applicable Reply Prices and shall not be subject to proration.

(d) Proration Procedures. All B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans) offered in Return Bids (or, if applicable, any component thereof) constituting Qualifying Bids at the Applicable Threshold Price will be purchased at the Applicable Threshold Price; provided that if the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans) for which Qualifying Bids have been submitted in any given Auction at the Applicable Threshold Price would exceed the remaining portion of the Auction Amount (after deducting all Term Loans to be purchased at prices below the Applicable Threshold Price), the respective Borrower shall purchase the B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans) for which the Qualifying Bids submitted were at the Applicable Threshold Price ratably based on the respective principal amounts offered and in an aggregate amount equal to the amount necessary to complete the purchase of the Auction Amount. No Return Bids or any component thereof will be accepted above the Applicable Threshold Price.

(e) Notification Procedures. The Auction Manager will calculate the Applicable Threshold Price and post the Applicable Threshold Price and proration factor onto an internet or intranet site (including an IntraLinks, SyndTrak or other electronic workspace) in accordance with the Auction Manager’s standard dissemination practices by 4:00 p.m. New York City time on the same Business Day as the date the Return Bids were due (as such due date may be extended in accordance with this Schedule 2.19(a)). The Auction Manager will insert the principal amount of B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans) to be assigned and the applicable settlement date into each applicable Auction Assignment and Assumption received in connection with a Qualifying Bid. Upon the request of the submitting Lender, the Auction Manager will promptly return any Auction Assignment and Assumption received in connection with a Return Bid that is not a Qualifying Bid.

(f) Auction Assignment and Assumption. Each Auction Notice and Auction Assignment and Assumption shall contain the following representations and warranties by the respective Borrower:

“No Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or would result from this Auction.”

(g) Additional Procedures. Once initiated by an Auction Notice, the respective Borrower may withdraw an Auction only in the event that, as of such time, (i) no Qualifying Bid has been received by the Auction Manager or (ii) the respective Borrower has failed, or believes in good faith that it will fail, to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 2.19(a) of the Credit Agreement which are required to be met at the time which otherwise would have been the time of purchase of B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans) pursuant to the respective Auction. Furthermore, in connection with any Auction, upon submission by a Lender of a Return Bid, such Lender will not have any withdrawal rights. Any Return Bid (including any component bid thereof) delivered to the Auction Manager may not be modified, revoked, terminated or cancelled by a Lender. However, an Auction may become void if the conditions to the purchase of B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans) by the respective Borrower required by the terms and conditions of Section 2.19(a) of the Credit Agreement are not met. The purchase price in respect of each Qualifying Bid for which purchase by the respective Borrower is required in accordance with the foregoing provisions shall be paid directly by such Borrower to the respective assigning Lender on a settlement date as determined jointly by the respective Borrower and the Auction Manager (which shall be not later than ten (10) Business Days after the date Return Bids are due). The respective Borrower shall execute each applicable Auction Assignment and Assumption received in connection with a Qualifying Bid. All questions as to the form of documents and validity and eligibility of B Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of B Term Loans) or C Term Loans (in the case of an Auction in respect of C Term Loans) that are the subject of an Auction will be determined by the Auction Manager, in consultation with the respective Borrower, and their determination will be final and binding so long as such determination is not inconsistent with the terms of Section 2.19(a) of the Credit Agreement or this Schedule 2.19(a). The Auction Manager’s interpretation of the terms and conditions of the offering document, in consultation with the respective Borrower, will be final and binding so long as such interpretation is not inconsistent with the terms of Section 2.19(a) of the Credit Agreement or this Schedule 2.19(a). None of the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager, any other Agent-Related Person or any of their respective affiliates assumes any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the information concerning either Borrower, the other Credit Parties, or any of their affiliates (whether contained in an offering document or otherwise) or for any failure to disclose events that may have occurred and may affect the significance or accuracy of such information. This Schedule 2.19(a) shall not require either Borrower to initiate any Auction.
