WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, on June 14, 2015 (the “Petition Date”), the Borrowers and the Guarantors (collectively, the “Debtors” and each individually, a “Debtor”) each commenced a case (collectively, the “Chapter 11 Cases”) under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”);

WHEREAS, on June 17, 2015, Colt Holding Company LLC as the Foreign Representative on behalf of the Debtors, commenced a recognition proceeding under Part IV of the CCAA in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) (the “Canadian Court”) to recognize in Canada the Chapter 11 Cases as foreign main or non-main proceedings (the “CCAA Recognition Proceedings”);

WHEREAS, prior to the Petition Date, the Prepetition Term Lenders provided financing to the Borrowers pursuant to the Prepetition Term Loan Agreement, among the Borrowers, the Guarantors, Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Prepetition Term Agent”), and the financial institutions or entities from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Prepetition Term Lenders”);

The parties agree as follows:

1. DEFINITIONS AND CONSTRUCTION.

1.1 Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings specified therefor on Schedule 1.1.

1.2 Accounting Terms. Any accounting term used in this Agreement shall have, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, the meaning customarily given in accordance with GAAP, and all financial computations hereunder shall be computed unless otherwise specifically provided herein, in accordance with GAAP as consistently applied and using the same method for inventory valuation as used in the preparation of the financial statements of Parent most recently received by the Lenders prior to the date hereof; provided, however, that (a) upon the adoption by Parent of IFRS as required by Parent’s independent certified public accountants and notification by Administrative Borrower to Agent of such adoption (the “IFRS Adoption”) or (b) if Administrative Borrower notifies Agent that Borrowers request an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any Accounting Change occurring after the Closing Date or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if Agent notifies Administrative Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such the IFRS Adoption or Accounting Change or in the application thereof, then Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, and Borrowers agree that they will negotiate in good faith amendments to the provisions of this Agreement that are directly affected by such IFRS Adoption or Accounting Change with the intent of having the respective positions of the Lenders and Borrowers after such IFRS Adoption or Accounting Change conform as nearly as possible to their respective positions as of the date of this Agreement and, until any such amendments have been agreed upon and agreed to by the Required Lenders, the provisions in this Agreement, including the covenants, shall be calculated in accordance with GAAP as in effect, and as applied by Parent and its Subsidiaries as if no such IFRS Adoption or Accounting Change had occurred. In the case of the IFRS Adoption or the Accounting Change until such covenants are amended in a manner satisfactory to Parent, Agent and the Required Lenders (i) all calculations made for the purpose of determining compliance with the financial ratios and financial covenants contained herein shall be made on a basis consistent with GAAP in existence immediately prior to such adoption and (ii) financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.1 shall be accompanied by a reconciliation showing the adjustments made to calculate such financial ratios and financial covenants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all financial statements delivered

hereunder shall be prepared, and all financial covenants contained herein shall be calculated, without giving effect to any election under the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159 (or any similar accounting principle) permitting a Person to value its financial liabilities or Indebtedness at the fair value thereof.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3) and the Approved Budget, each Lender with a Term Loan Commitment agrees (severally, not jointly or jointly and severally), solely to the extent requested by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.3, to make term loans (collectively, the “Tranche A Term Loans”) to Borrowers in an aggregate amount up to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan Amount as follows: (i) an initial Tranche A Term Loan to the Borrowers on the Closing Date (the “Initial Tranche A Term Loan”) of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of $4,000,000 (ii) on or after the date of entry of the Second Interim DIP Order, one additional Tranche A Term Loan to the Borrowers on the date specified in the applicable Borrowing Request (the “Second Tranche A Term Loan”) of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of an aggregate principal amount equal to $2,666,666, and (iii) on and after entry of the Final DIP Order, (x) one deemed Term Loan (the “Tranche B Term Loan”) to the Borrowers on the date of the Tranche A Term Loan made in accordance with the succeeding clause (y) in an amount equal to $20,000,000 (the “Tranche B Term Loan Amount”), which Tranche B Term Loan shall be deemed made by the Lenders to the Borrowers on such date and shall be deemed to have prepaid $20,000,000 of principal amount of the Prepetition Term Loans, and (y) one additional Tranche A Term Loan to the Borrowers on the date specified in the applicable Borrowing Request of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of an aggregate principal amount equal to $6,666,667.

(b) Each Term Loan made by each Lender shall be evidenced by this Agreement and, if requested by a Lender, a Term Note payable to such Lender or its registered assigns in the original principal amount of such Term Loan.

(c) The outstanding unpaid principal balance of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, the Term Loans shall be due and payable on the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the date of the acceleration of the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof. Any principal amount of a Term Loan that is repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. All principal of, interest on, and other amounts payable in respect of each Term Loan, including any premiums, fees, expenses or other additional amounts owed, shall constitute Obligations hereunder.

2.3 Requests for Borrowings. Other than in respect of a deemed Tranche B Term Loan, the Administrative Borrower shall give the Agent irrevocable written notice of a request for Borrowing (which notice must be received by the Agent prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, 3 Business Days before the proposed date of Borrowing for all notices of a request for Borrowing other than of the Initial Tranche A Term Loan and the Second Tranche A Term Loan) in the form of a Borrowing Request. Each such Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Sections 2.2 and 3.1:

(a) the Borrower requesting the Tranche A Term Loan;

(b) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing, which shall be (i) until entry of the Final DIP Order and Final DIP Recognition Order, in an aggregate amount not exceeding the lesser of the amount permitted to be borrowed pursuant to the First Interim DIP Order (which is to be recognized by the Initial Recognition Order) or the Second Interim DIP Order, as applicable, and up to the amount set forth in the Approved Budget for such period and (ii) following entry of the Final DIP Order and Final DIP Recognition Order, up to the amount set forth in the Approved Budget for such period;

(d) the account to which the proceeds of such Borrowing are to be disbursed.

2.4 Payments; Reductions of Commitments; Prepayments.

(a) Payments by Borrowers.

(i) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by any Borrower shall be made to Agent’s Account for the account of the Lender Group and shall be made in immediately available funds, no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date specified herein. Any payment received by Agent later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue until such following Business Day.

(ii) Unless Agent receives notice from Administrative Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that Borrowers will not

make such payment in full as and when required, Agent may assume that Borrowers have made (or will make) such payment in full to Agent on such date in immediately available funds and Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent Borrowers do not make such payment in full to Agent on the date when due, each Lender severally shall repay to Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at the interest rate then applicable to the Term Loans for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date repaid.

(b) Apportionment and Application.

(i) So long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing and except as otherwise provided herein, including with respect to Defaulting Lenders, all principal and interest payments received by Agent shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders (according to the unpaid principal balance of the Obligations to which such payments relate held by each Lender) entitled to such payments and all payments of fees and expenses received by Agent (other than fees or expenses that are for Agent’s separate account) shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders having a Pro Rata Share of the type of Obligation to which a particular fee or expense relates. All payments to be made hereunder by Borrowers shall be remitted to Agent and all such payments, and all proceeds of Collateral received by Agent, shall be applied, so long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing, to repay the remaining Term Loans (which payments shall be applied against the Tranche A Term Loans in the inverse order of maturity and then to the Tranche B Term Loan), and, thereafter, to Borrowers (to be wired to the Designated Account) or such other Person entitled thereto under applicable law (subject to Section 2.4(b)(v), Section 2.4(d)(ii) and Section 2.4(e)).

(ii) At any time that an Application Event has occurred and is continuing and except as otherwise provided herein with respect to Defaulting Lenders, all payments remitted to Agent in respect of the Obligations and all proceeds of Collateral received by Agent shall be applied as follows:

(A) first, to pay any Lender Group Expenses (including cost or expense reimbursements) or indemnities then due to Agent under the Loan Documents, until paid in full,

(B) second, to pay any fees then due to Agent under the Loan Documents until paid in full,

(C) third, ratably, to pay any Lender Group Expenses (including cost or expense reimbursements) or indemnities then due to any of the Lenders under the Loan Documents, until paid in full,

(D) fourth, ratably, to pay any fees (including any fees, premiums and penalties specified in Section 2.10) then due to any of the Lenders under the Loan Documents until paid in full,

(iv) For purposes of Section 2.4(b)(ii), “paid in full” of a type of Obligation means payment in cash or immediately available funds of all amounts owing on account of such type of Obligation, including interest accrued after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding, default interest, interest on interest, and expense reimbursements, whether or not any of the foregoing would be or is allowed or disallowed in whole or in part in any Insolvency Proceeding.

(v) In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 2.4 and any other provision contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, then the terms and provisions of this Section 2.4 shall control and govern.

(i) [Reserved].

(ii) Termination of the Tranche A Term Loan Commitments. The Tranche A Term Loan Commitments shall terminate by the amount of each Tranche A Term Loan extended upon the making of such Tranche A Term Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, all of the Tranche A Term Loan Commitments shall automatically terminate at the earlier of (x) 5:00 p.m., New York time, on June 19, 2015 if the Closing Date shall have not occurred by such time and (y) upon the occurrence of a Change of Control.

Nothing contained in this Section 2.4(e)(ii) shall permit Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to sell or otherwise dispose of any assets other than in accordance with Section 6.4.

(iii) Extraordinary Receipts. Within 3 Business Days of the date of receipt by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries of any Extraordinary Receipts, Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.4(f)(ii) in an amount equal to 100% of such Extraordinary Receipts, net of any reasonable and documented expenses incurred in collecting such Extraordinary Receipts.

(iv) Indebtedness and Equity Issuances . Within 3 Business Days of the date of incurrence or issuance by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries of any Indebtedness (other than Permitted Indebtedness) or issuance of Equity Interests, Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.4(f)(ii) in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received by such Person in connection with such incurrence or issuance. The provisions of this Section 2.4(e)(iv) shall not be deemed to be implied

consent to any such incurrence or issuance otherwise prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

(v) Change of Control. Borrowers shall immediately prepay the outstanding Obligations in the event that a Change of Control shall have occurred.

(vi) Waivable Mandatory Prepayments. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event Borrowers are required to make any mandatory prepayment (a “Waivable Mandatory Prepayment”) of the Term Loan pursuant to this Section 2.4(e), not less than 5 Business Days prior to the date (the “Required Prepayment Date”) on which Borrowers are required to make such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, Administrative Borrower shall notify Agent of the amount of such prepayment, and Agent will promptly thereafter notify each Lender of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment and such Lender’s option to refuse such amount. Each such Lender may exercise such option by giving written notice to Administrative Borrower and Agent of its election to do so on or before the first Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date (it being understood that any Lender that does not notify Administrative Borrower and Agent of its election to exercise such option on or before the first Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date shall be deemed to have elected, as of such date, not to exercise such option). On the Required Prepayment Date, Borrowers shall pay to Agent the amount of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, which amount shall be applied (A) in an amount equal to that portion of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment payable to those Lenders that have elected not to exercise such option, to prepay the Term Loans of such Lenders (which prepayment shall be applied to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.4(f)(ii)) and (B) to the extent of any excess, to Borrowers for working capital and general corporate purposes.

(f) Application of Payments.

(i) Any prepayments required pursuant to Section 2.4(e) shall be preceded by irrevocable written notice delivered to Agent by 11:00 A.M., New York City time, not less than 3 Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment, specifying the underlying reason for the mandatory prepayment and the amount of the same.

(ii) Subject to Section 2.4(f)(iii), each prepayment pursuant to Section 2.4(d) or Section 2.4(e) shall (A) so long as no Application Event shall have occurred and be continuing, be applied, to the outstanding principal amount of the remaining Tranche A Term Loans until paid in full and then Tranche B Term Loans until paid in full, and (B) if an Application Event shall have occurred and be continuing, be applied in the manner set forth in Section 2.4(b)(ii).

(iii) With respect to any mandatory prepayment required by Section 2.4(e)(ii): (A) if the proceeds are from any sale or disposition of, or insurance or any condemnation, taking or other casualty with respect to, any DIP ABL Priority Collateral, such proceeds shall be applied (x) first, to the DIP ABL Obligations, to the extent required by the ABL Credit Agreement until paid in full, and (y) second, to the principal of the Tranche A Term Loans, until paid in full and then Tranche B Term Loans until paid in full, and (B) if the proceeds are from the sale or disposition of, or insurance or any condemnation, taking or other casualty with respect to, any other assets of the Loan Parties not described in subclause (A), such proceeds shall be applied to the principal of the Tranche A Term Loans, until paid in full and then Tranche B Term Loans until paid in full.

2.5 [Reserved].

2.6 Interest Rate: Rate, Payments, and Calculations.

(a) Tranche A Term Loans Cash Interest. Except as provided in Section 2.6(c), all Obligations (other than the principal balance outstanding of Tranche B Term Loans) that have been (or were intended to be) charged to the Loan Account pursuant to the terms hereof shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 12.50% (“Cash Interest”).

(b) Tranche B Term Loans Interest. Except as provided in Section 2.6(c), the outstanding principal balance of Tranche B Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 10% payable in cash and 4.0% payable in kind by adding such in kind amount to the outstanding balance of Tranche B Term Loans.

(c) Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, all Obligations shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to two (2) percentage points above the per annum rates otherwise applicable thereto.

(d) Payment. All interest, and all fees payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and all costs and expenses payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be due and payable, in arrears, on the first day of each month (“Interest Payment Date”) at any time that Obligations are outstanding, except as otherwise provided herein. The Borrowers shall deliver written notice to the Agent at least 5 Business Days prior to each Interest Payment Date setting forth a calculation of the Cash Interest to be paid on such Interest Payment Date. The Agent shall have the right to review and adjust any such calculations. Each Borrower hereby authorizes Agent, from time to time without prior notice to such Borrower, to charge all interest, fees, costs, expenses and other amounts payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents when due and payable to the Loan Account.

(e) Computation. All interest shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed. For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest to which any rate calculated on the basis of a period of time different from the actual number of days in the year (360 days, for example) is equivalent is the stated rate multiplied by the actual number of days in the year (365 or 366 days) and divided by the number of days in the shorter period (360 days, in the example).

(f) Intent to Limit Charges to Maximum Lawful Rate.

(i) In no event shall the aggregate “interest” (as defined in Section 347 (the “Criminal Code Section”) of the Criminal Code (Canada)), payable to any member of the Lender Group under this Agreement or any other Loan Document exceed the effective annual rate of interest lawfully permitted under the Criminal Code Section on the “credit advanced” (as defined in such section) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Further, if any payment, collection or demand pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in respect of such “interest” is determined to be contrary to the provisions of the Criminal Code Section, such payment, collection, or demand shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of the affected Borrower and the affected member of the Lender Group and such “interest” shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by the Criminal Code Section to result in a receipt by such member of the Lender Group of interest at a rate not in contravention of the Criminal Code Section, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, as follows:

(A) firstly, by reducing the amounts or rates of interest required to be paid to that member of the Lender Group; and

(B) then, by reducing any fees, charges, expenses and other amounts required to be paid to the affected member of the Lender Group which would constitute “interest”.

(ii) Notwithstanding the above terns of this Section 2.6(f), and after giving effect to all such adjustments, if any member of the Lender Group shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by the Criminal Code Section, then the affected Borrower shall be entitled to obtain reimbursement from that member of the Lender Group in an amount equal to such excess. For greater certainty, to the extent that any charges, fees or expenses are held to be within such meaning of “interest”, such amounts shall be pro-rated over the period of time to which they relate or otherwise over the period from the date hereof to the date on which all of the Obligations are irrevocably repaid.

2.7 Crediting Payments; Clearance Charge. The receipt of any payment item by Agent shall not be considered a payment on account unless such payment item is a wire transfer of immediately available federal funds made to Agent’s Account or unless and until such payment item is honored when presented for payment. Should any payment item not be honored when presented for payment, then Borrowers shall be deemed not to have made such payment and interest shall be calculated accordingly. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, any payment item shall be deemed received by Agent only if it is received into Agent’s Account on a Business Day on or before 11:00 a.m. (New York time). If any payment item is received into Agent’s Account on a non-Business Day or after 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on a Business Day, it shall be deemed to have been received by Agent as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day.

2.8 Designated Account. Agent is authorized to make any advance of the Term Loans in accordance with this Agreement based upon telephonic or other instructions received from anyone purporting to be an Authorized Person or, without instructions, if pursuant to Section 2.6(d). Borrowers agree to establish and maintain the Designated Account for the purpose of receiving the proceeds of each Tranche A Term Loan requested by Borrowers and made by the Lenders hereunder. Unless otherwise agreed by Agent and Borrowers, any Tranche A Term Loan requested by Borrowers and made by the Lenders hereunder shall be made to the Designated Account.

2.9 Maintenance of Loan Account; Statements of Obligations. Agent shall maintain an account on its books in the name of Borrowers (the “Loan Account”) on which Borrowers will be charged with the Term Loans made by the Lenders to Borrowers or for Borrowers’ account and with all other payment Obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including, accrued interest, fees and expenses, and Lender Group Expenses. In accordance with Section 2.7, the Loan Account will be credited with all payments received by Agent from Borrowers or for Borrowers’ account. Agent shall make available to Borrowers quarterly statements regarding the Loan Account, including the principal amount of the Term Loan interest accrued hereunder, fees accrued or charged hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and a summary itemization of all charges and expenses constituting Lender Group Expenses accrued hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and each such statement, absent manifest error, shall be conclusively presumed to be correct and accurate and constitute an account stated between Borrowers and the Lender Group unless, within 30 days after Agent first makes such a statement available to Borrowers, the Administrative Borrower shall deliver to Agent written objection thereto describing the error or errors contained in such statement. The Borrowers shall continue to have such obligations notwithstanding any failure by the Agent to maintain the Loan Account.

2.10 Fees. Borrowers shall pay to Agent for the account of the applicable Person, as and when due and payable under the terms of each Fee Letter, the fees and amounts set forth in the Fee Letters. Such fees and amounts shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

2.11 [Reserved]

2.12 [Reserved]

2.13 Capital Requirements.

(a) If, after the date hereof, any Lender determines that (i) the adoption of or change in any law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital or reserve requirements for banks or bank holding companies, or any change in the interpretation, implementation, or application thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the administration thereof, or (ii) compliance by such Lender or its parent bank holding company with any guideline, request or directive of any such entity regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law), has the effect of reducing the return on such Lender’s or such holding company’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender

or such holding company could have achieved but for such adoption, change, or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such holding company’s then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy and assuming the full utilization of such entity’s capital) by any amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then such Lender may notify Administrative Borrower and Agent thereof. Following receipt of such notice, Borrowers agree to pay such Lender on demand the amount of such reduction of return of capital as and when such reduction is determined, payable within 30 days after presentation by such Lender of a statement in the amount and setting forth in reasonable detail such Lender’s calculation thereof and the assumptions upon which such calculation was based (which statement shall be deemed true and correct absent manifest error). In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided, that, (A) no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any reductions in return incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies Administrative Borrower of such law, rule, regulation or guideline giving rise to such reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor and (B) if such claim arises by reason of the adoption of or change in any law, rule, regulation or guideline that is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. For purposes of this Section 2.13(a), the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (of any successor or similar authority), the Bank for International Settlements and (in each case) all rules, regulations, orders, requests, guidelines or directives in connection therewith are deemed to have been enacted and become effective after the date of this Agreement.

(b) If any Lender requests additional or increased costs referred to in Section 2.12 or amounts under Section 2.13(a) or sends a notice under Section 2.12(i) relative to changed circumstances (any such Lender, an “Affected Lender”), then such Affected Lender shall use reasonable efforts to promptly designate a different one of its lending offices or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices or branches, if (i) in the reasonable judgment of such Affected Lender, such designation or assignment would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12 or Section 2.13(a), as applicable, and (ii) in the reasonable judgment of such Affected Lender, such designation or assignment would not subject it to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to it. Borrowers agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by such Affected Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. If, after such reasonable efforts, such Affected Lender does not so designate a different one of its lending offices or assign its rights to another of its offices or branches so as to eliminate Borrowers’ obligation to pay any future amounts to such Affected Lender pursuant to Section 2.12 or Section 2.13(a), as applicable, then Borrowers (without prejudice to any amounts then due to such Affected Lender under Section 2.12 or Section 2.13(a), as applicable) may, unless prior to the effective date of any such assignment the Affected Lender withdraws its request for such additional amounts under Section 2.12 or Section 2.13(a), as applicable, may seek a substitute Lender acceptable to the Required Lenders to purchase the Obligations owed to such Affected Lender and such Affected Lender’s Commitments hereunder (a “Replacement Lender”), and if such Replacement Lender agrees to such purchase, such Affected Lender shall assign to

the Replacement Lender its Obligations and Commitments, pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, and upon such purchase by the Replacement Lender, such Replacement Lender shall be deemed to be a “Lender” for purposes of this Agreement and such Affected Lender shall cease to be a “Lender” for purposes of this Agreement.

2.14 Joint and Several Liability of Borrowers.

(a) Each Borrower is accepting joint and several liability for the Obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Lender Group under this Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each Borrower and in consideration of the undertakings of the other Borrowers to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations.

(b) Each Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Borrowers, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including any Obligations arising under this Section 2.14), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each Borrower without preferences or distinction among them.

(c) If and to the extent that any Borrower shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event the other Borrowers will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation until such time as all of the Obligations are paid in full.

Further, each Borrower waives each of the following, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (1) any defence based upon (a) the lack of authority of any Borrower; (b) the unenforceability, invalidity, illegality or extinguishment of all or any part of the Obligations, or any security or other guarantee for the Obligations or any failure of the Agent or any Lender to take proper care or act in a commercially reasonable manner in respect of any security for the Obligations or any collateral subject to the security, including in respect of any disposition of the Collateral or any set-off of any of the Borrowers’ bank deposits against the Obligations; (c) any act or omission of any of the Borrowers or any other person, including the Agent, that directly or indirectly results in the discharge or release of any of the Borrowers or any other Person or any of the Obligations or any security for the Obligations; or (d) the Agent’s present or future method of dealing with any of the Borrowers or any Guarantor or any security (or any collateral subject to the security) or other guarantee for the Obligations, (2) any right (whether now or hereafter existing) to require the Agent or a Lender, as a condition to the enforcement of this Agreement (a) to accelerate the Obligations or proceed and exhaust any recourse against any of the Borrowers or any other Person; (b) to realize on any security that it holds; (c) to xxxxxxxx the assets of any of the Borrowers or any of the Guarantors;

or (d) to pursue any other remedy that each Borrower or Guarantor may not be able to pursue itself and that might limit or reduce such Borrower or such Guarantor’s burden, (3) presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind including, without limitation, notices of default, (4) any claims, set-off or other rights that any Borrower or any Guarantor may have against the Agent or any of the Lenders, whether or not related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, (5) all suretyship defences and rights of every nature otherwise available under any jurisdiction, including the benefit of discussion and of division, and (6) all other rights and defences (legal or equitable) the assertion or exercise of which would in any way diminish the liability of any of the Borrowers under this joint and several liability obligation or otherwise under this Agreement other than the payment in full of the Obligations.

(e) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Borrower hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability, notice of the occurrence of any Default, Event of Default, or of any demand for any payment under this Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by Agent or Lenders under or in respect of any of the Obligations, any requirement of diligence or to mitigate damages and, generally, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement). Each Borrower hereby assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by Agent or Lenders at any time or times in respect of any default by any Borrower in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by Agent or Lenders in respect of any of the Obligations, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any security for any of the Obligations or the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of any Agent or Lender with respect to the failure by any Borrower to comply with any of its respective Obligations, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder, which might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.14 afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving any Borrower, in whole or in part, from any of its Obligations under this Section 2.14, it being the intention of each Borrower that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the Obligations of each Borrower under this Section 2.14 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance.

Each Borrower hereby covenants that such Borrower will continue to keep

informed of Borrowers’ financial condition and of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Obligations.

(g) The provisions of this Section 2.14 are made for the benefit of Agent, each member of the Lender Group, and their respective successors and assigns, and may be enforced by it or them from time to time against any or all Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of Agent, any member of the Lender Group, or any of their successors or assigns first to marshal any of its or their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against any Borrower or to exhaust any remedies available to it or them against any Borrower or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 2.14 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by Agent or any Lender in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, the CCAA Recognition Proceedings, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 2.14 will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made.

(h) Each Borrower hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of contribution or subrogation against any other Borrower with respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, any payments made by it to Agent or Lenders with respect to any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor until such time as all of the Obligations have been paid in full in cash. Any claim which any Borrower may have against any other Borrower with respect to any payments to any Agent or any member of the Lender Group hereunder are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations and, in the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization, winding up, arrangement, or other similar proceeding under the laws of any jurisdiction relating to any Borrower, its debts or its assets, whether voluntary or involuntary, all such Obligations shall be paid in full in cash before any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any other Borrower therefor.

(i) Each Borrower hereby agrees that after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, such Borrower will not demand, xxx for or otherwise attempt to collect any indebtedness of any other Borrower owing to such Borrower until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, such Borrower shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by such Borrower as trustee for Agent, and such Borrower shall deliver any such amounts to Agent for application to the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.4(b).

All material payments due from Parent or its Subsidiaries on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and

other benefits have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of Parent, except where the failure to do so could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.

4.25 DIP ABL Loan Documents. Borrowers have delivered or made available to the Lenders true and correct copies of the DIP ABL Loan Documents. The transactions contemplated by the DIP ABL Loan Documents will be, contemporaneously with the Closing Date, consummated in accordance with their respective terms and all of the representations and warranties of Parent or its Subsidiaries in the DIP ABL Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date or, to the extent that any such representation or warranty relates solely to an earlier date, as of such earlier date.

Certain of the Loan Parties have the same chief executive office, certain common officers and directors and generally do not provide consolidating financial statements to creditors. The successful operation and condition of each of the Loan Parties is dependent on the continued successful performance of the functions of the group of the Loan Parties as a whole and the successful operation of each of the Loan Parties is dependent on the successful performance and operation of each other Loan Party. Each Loan Party expects to derive benefit (and its board of directors or other governing body has determined that it may reasonably be expected to derive benefit), directly and indirectly, from (i) successful operations of each of the other Loan Parties and (ii) the credit extended by the Lenders to the Borrowers hereunder, both in their separate capacities and as members of the group of companies. Each Loan Party has determined that execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and any other Loan Documents to be executed by such Loan Party (and the entering into of joint and several obligations and the giving of any guarantee or Lien to Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in connection therewith) is within its

9. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

9.1 Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Agent, upon the written instruction of the Required Lenders, shall (in each case under clause (a) by written notice to Administrative Borrower), in addition to any other rights or remedies provided for hereunder or under any other Loan Document or by applicable law, do any one or more of the following:

(a) subject to the Remedies Notice Period, declare the Obligations, whether evidenced by this Agreement or by any of the other Loan Documents to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall become and be immediately due and payable and Borrowers shall be obligated to repay all of such Obligations in full, without presentment, demand, protest, or further notice or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower;

(b) deliver written notice to the Bankruptcy Court or the Canadian Court, as applicable, that, pursuant to the Orders, as applicable, the automatic stay provisions of section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code or any stay operating under Canadian Insolvency Law have been vacated and modified to the extent necessary to permit the Agent and the Lenders to exercise all rights and remedies provided for in the Loan Documents upon the expiration of the Remedies Notice Period; and

(c) subject to the Remedies Notice Period, exercise all other rights and remedies available to Agent or the Lenders under the Loan Documents (including without limitation, Section 9.3 hereof), the Orders or applicable law, subject to the Orders, as applicable.

The Loan Parties shall cooperate fully with the Agent and the Lenders in their exercise of rights and remedies, whether against the Collateral or otherwise.

9.2 Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the Lender Group under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. The Lender Group shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, the PPSA, by law, or in equity. No exercise by the Lender Group of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by the Lender Group of any Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by the Lender Group shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.

9.3 Code and Other Remedies.

(a) Code Remedies. During the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the Remedies Notice Period, the Agent may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 9.1) and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any Obligation, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Code or any other applicable law.

(b) Disposition of Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent may, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by the First Interim DIP Order,

the Second Interim DIP Order or the Final DIP Order or any of the Canadian Orders and any notice required by law referred to below, including compliance with the Remedies Notice Period) to or upon any Loan Party or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived (except as required by the First Interim DIP Order, the Second Interim DIP Order or the Final DIP Order or any of the Canadian Orders)), during the continuance of any Event of Default (personally or through its agents or attorneys), (i) enter upon the premises where any Collateral is located, without any obligation to pay rent, through self- help, without judicial process, without first obtaining a final judgment or giving any Loan Party or any other Person notice or opportunity for a hearing on the Agent’s claim or action, (ii) collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon any Collateral, (iii) Sell, grant option or options to purchase and deliver any Collateral (enter into contractual obligations to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of any Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk, (iv) withdraw all cash and Cash Equivalents in any Deposit Account or Securities Account of a Loan Party and apply such cash and Cash Equivalents and other cash, if any, then held by it as Collateral in satisfaction of the Obligations, and (v) give notice and take sole possession and control of all amounts on deposit in or credited to any Deposit Account or Securities Account pursuant to the related Control Agreement. The Agent shall have the right, upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by the Code and other applicable Requirements of Law, upon any such private sale, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold (and, in lieu of actual payment of the purchase price, may “credit bid” or otherwise set off the amount of such price against the Obligations), free of any right or equity of redemption of any Loan Party, which right or equity is hereby waived and released.

(c) Management of the Collateral. Each Loan Party further agrees, that, during the continuance of any Event of Default, subject to the Remedies Notice Period, (i) at the Agent’s request, it shall assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Agent at places that the Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Loan Party’s premises or elsewhere, (ii) without limiting the foregoing, the Agent also has the right to require that each Loan Party store and keep any Collateral pending further action by the Agent and, while any such Collateral is so stored or kept, provide such guards and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain such Collateral in good condition, (iii) until the Agent is able to Sell any Collateral, the Agent shall have the right to hold or use such Collateral to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving the Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by the Agent and (iv) the Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of any Collateral and to enforce any of the Agent’s remedies (for the benefit of the Secured Parties), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment. The Agent shall not have any obligation to any Loan Party to maintain or preserve the rights of any Loan Party as against third parties with respect to any Collateral while such Collateral is in the possession of the Agent.

(d) Direct Obligation. Neither the Agent nor any other Secured Party shall be required to make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any right or remedy against, any Loan Party, any other Loan Party or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any right or remedy with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or

indirect guaranty thereof. All of the rights and remedies of the Agent and any other Secured Party under any Loan Document shall be cumulative, may be exercised individually or concurrently and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by any Requirement of Law. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Loan Party absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against the Agent or any Lender, any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety, now or hereafter existing, arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of any Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition.

(e) Commercially Reasonable. To the extent that applicable Requirements of Law impose duties on the Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Agent to do any of the following:

(i) fail to incur significant costs, expenses or other Liabilities reasonably deemed as such by the Agent to prepare any Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition;

(ii) fail to obtain Permits, or other consents, for access to any Collateral to Sell or for the collection or Sale of any Collateral, or, if not required by other Requirements of Law, fail to obtain Permits or other consents for the collection or disposition of any Collateral;

(iii) fail to exercise remedies against account debtors or other Persons obligated on any Collateral or to remove Liens on any Collateral or to remove any adverse claims against any Collateral;

(iv) advertise dispositions of any Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not such Collateral is of a specialized nature or to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as any Loan Party, for expressions of interest in acquiring any such Collateral;

(v) exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other Persons obligated on any Collateral, directly or through the use of collection agencies or other collection specialists, hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of any Collateral, whether or not such Collateral is of a specialized nature or, to the extent deemed appropriate by the Agent, obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Agent in the collection or disposition of any Collateral, or utilize Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets to dispose of any Collateral;

(vi) dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets;

(vii) disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment; or

(viii) purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of any Collateral or to provide to the Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of any Collateral.

(f) Each Loan Party acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 9.3 is to provide a non- exhaustive list of actions or omissions that are commercially reasonable when exercising remedies against any Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Secured Parties shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 9.3. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 9.3 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Loan Party or to impose any duties on the Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable Requirements of Law in the absence of this Section 9.3.The rights and remedies of the Lender Group under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. The Lender Group shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, the PPSA, by law, or in equity. No exercise by the Lender Group of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by the Lender Group of any Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by the Lender Group shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.

9.4 Accounts and Payments in Respect of General Intangibles.

(a) In addition to, and not in substitution for, any other provision in this Agreement, if required by the Agent at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the Remedies Notice Period, on and after the date on which at least one Deposit Account or Securities Account has been established, any payment of accounts or payment in respect of general intangibles, when collected by any Loan Party, shall be promptly (and, in any event, within 2 Business Days) deposited by such Loan Party in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Loan Party to the Agent, in such account, subject to withdrawal by the Agent as provided in Section 9.5. Until so turned over, such payment shall be held by such Loan Party in trust for the Agent, segregated from other funds of such Loan Party. Each such deposit of proceeds of accounts and payments in respect of general intangibles shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit.

(b) At any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the Remedies Notice Period:

(i) each Loan Party shall, upon the Agent’s request, deliver to the Agent all original and other documents evidencing, and relating to, the contractual obligations and transactions that gave rise to any account or any payment in respect of general intangibles, including all original orders, invokes and shipping receipts and notify account debtors that the accounts or general intangibles have been collaterally assigned to the Agent and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Agent;

(ii) the Agent may, without notice, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, limit or terminate the authority of a Loan Party to collect its accounts or amounts due under general intangibles or any thereof and, in its own name or in the name of others, communicate with account debtors to verify with them to the Agent’s reasonable satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any account or amounts due under any general intangible. In addition, the Agent may at any lime enforce such Loan Party’s rights against such account debtors and obligors of general intangibles; and

(iii) each Loan Party shall take all actions, deliver all documents and provide all information necessary or reasonably requested by the Agent to ensure any Internet domain name is registered.

(c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Loan Party shall remain liable under each account and each payment in respect of general intangibles to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. No Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any agreement giving rise to an account or a payment in respect of a general intangible by reason of or arising out of any Loan Document or the receipt by any Secured Party of any payment relating thereto, nor shall any Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any obligation of any Loan Party under or pursuant to any agreement giving rise to an account or a payment in respect of a general intangible, to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts that may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

9.5 Proceeds to be Turned over to and Held by Agent. Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to the Remedies Notice Period, all proceeds of any Collateral received by any Loan Party hereunder in cash or Cash Equivalents shall be held by such Loan Party in trust for the Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Loan Party, and shall, promptly upon receipt by any Loan Party, be turned over to the Agent in the exact form received (with any necessary endorsement). All such proceeds of Collateral and any other proceeds of any Collateral received by the Agent in cash or Cash Equivalents shall be held by the Agent in a Deposit Account or Securities Account. All proceeds being held by the Agent in a Deposit Account or Securities Account (or by such Loan Party in trust for the Agent) shall continue to be held as collateral security for the Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in this Agreement.

9.6 Registration Rights.

(a) Each Loan Party recognizes that the Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any pledged Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act, and applicable state or foreign securities laws or otherwise or may determine that a public sale is impracticable, not desirable or not commercially reasonable and, accordingly, may resort

to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers that shall be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state or foreign securities laws even if such issuer would agree to do so.

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Loan Party agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of any portion of the pledged Collateral pursuant to this Section 9.6, valid and binding and in compliance with all applicable Requirements of Law provided that no Loan Party shall have any obligation to publicly register any securities. Each Loan Party further agrees that a breach of any covenant contained in this Section 9.6 will cause irreparable injury to the Agent and other Secured Parties, that the Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 9.6 shall be specifically enforceable against such Loan Party, and such Loan Party hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defense against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred under this Agreement.

9.7 Deficiency. Each Loan Party shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of any Collateral are insufficient to pay the Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorney employed by the Agent or any other Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

10. WAIVERS; INDEMNIFICATION.

10.1 Demand; Protest; etc. Each Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by the Lender Group on which such Borrower may in any way be liable.

10.2 The Lender Group’s Liability for Collateral. Each Borrower hereby agrees that: (a) so long as Agent complies with its obligations, if any, under the Code and the PPSA, the Lender Group shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (i) the safekeeping of the Collateral, (ii) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause, (iii) any diminution in the value thereof, or (iv) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other Person, and (b) all risk of loss, damage, or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by Borrowers, other than any such loss or damage resulting from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Agent or any member of the Lender Group, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

10.3 Indemnification. Borrowers shall pay, indemnify, defend, and hold the Agent-Related Persons, the Lender-Related Persons (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless (to the fullest extent permitted by law) from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations, proceedings, liabilities, fines, costs, penalties, and damages, and all reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys (limited to one U.S. counsel to Agent-Related Persons and one U.S. counsel to Lender-Related Persons, one Canadian counsel to Agent-Related Persons and one Canadian counsel to Lender-Related Persons, one Dutch counsel to Agent-Related Persons and one Dutch counsel to Lender-Related Persons and any local or regulatory counsel to Agent-Related Persons and Lender-Related Persons reasonably selected by Agent, one additional counsel for the Lenders (taken as a whole) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and, if the interests of any Agent-Related Person or Lender-Related Person are distinctly and disproportionately affected, one additional counsel for such affected Person), experts, or consultants and all other costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith or in connection with the enforcement of this indemnification (promptly upon demand of Agent but in any event not later than 5 days of demand therefor by Agent irrespective of (1) the provisions of Section 17.10 hereof and (2) whether suit is brought), at any time asserted against, imposed upon, or incurred by any of them (a) in connection with or as a result of or related to the execution and delivery incurred in advising, structuring, drafting, reviewing, administering or syndicating the Loan Documents), enforcement, performance, or administration (including any restructuring or workout with respect hereto) of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the monitoring of Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ compliance with the terms of the Loan Documents (provided, however, that the indemnification in this clause (a) shall not extend to (i) disputes solely between or among the Lenders or (ii) disputes solely between or among the Lenders and their respective Affiliates; it being understood and agreed that the indemnification in this clause (a) shall extend to Agent (but not the Lenders) relative to disputes between or among Agent (in its capacity as such) on the one hand, and one or more Lenders, or one or more of their Affiliates, on the other hand, (b) with respect to any investigation, litigation, or proceeding related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or the use of the proceeds of the credit provided hereunder (irrespective of whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto), or any act, omission, event, or circumstance in any manner related thereto, and (c) in connection with or arising out of any Environmental Liabilities, Environmental Action or Remedial Action, including any presence or release of Hazardous Materials at, on, under, to or from any assets or properties owned, leased or operated by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (each and all of the foregoing, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, that, no Borrower shall be obligated to indemnify any Indemnified Person under this Section 10.3 for any Taxes (except Taxes that represent claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations, proceedings, liabilities, fines, costs, penalties, disbursements, etc., arising solely from any non-Tax claim), which shall be governed solely by Section 16. The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, no Borrower shall have any obligation to any Indemnified Person under this Section 10.3 with respect to any Indemnified Liability that a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have resulted from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of such Indemnified Person or its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Obligations. If any Indemnified Person makes any payment to any other

Indemnified Person with respect to an Indemnified Liability as to which any Borrower was required to indemnify the Indemnified Person receiving such payment, the Indemnified Person making such payment is entitled to be indemnified and reimbursed by Borrowers with respect thereto. To the fullest extent permitted by Requirements of Law, the Loan Parties shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnified Person, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

13. ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS; SUCCESSORS.

13.1 Assignments and Participations.

(a) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more other Lenders or other entities (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Obligations at the time owing to it), provided, that, any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) The aggregate amount of the principal outstanding balance of the Obligations of the assigning Lender subject to such assignment shall be not less than $1,000,000, unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent, except that such minimum amount shall not apply to (A) an assignment or delegation by any Lender to any other Lender, an Affiliate of any Lender or a Related Fund or (B) a group of new Lenders, each of which is an Affiliate of each other or a Related Fund of such new Lender to the extent that the aggregate amount to be assigned to all such new Lenders is at least $1,000,000 or (C) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Obligations at the time owing to it;

(ii) Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(iii) The consent of the Agent shall be required for any assignment, other than any assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or a Related Fund;

(iv) The consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or a Related Fund; provided, that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof;

(v) The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Acceptance (substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1), together with a processing fee of $3,500, provided, that Agent may, in its discretion, elect to reduce or waive such processing fee in the case of any assignment (and shall waive such fee if the assignment is from a Lender to an

Affiliate of a Lender), and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Agent an administrative questionnaire in a form satisfactory to Agent;

(vi) No such assignment shall be made to (A) a Loan Party or an Affiliate of any Loan Party, (B) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute a Defaulting Lender or one of its Subsidiaries, (C) a natural Person or (D) any Disqualified Lender;

(vii) Borrowers and Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with a Lender in connection with the interest so assigned to an Assignee until (A) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses, and related information with respect to the Assignee, have been given to Administrative Borrower and Agent by such Lender and the Assignee, (B) such Lender and its Assignee have delivered to Administrative Borrower and Agent an Assignment and Acceptance and Agent has notified the assigning Lender of its receipt thereof in accordance with this Section 13.1(a) and the satisfaction of the other conditions herein.

(b) From and after the date that Agent has recorded the assignment in the Register and Agent notifies the assigning Lender (with a copy to Administrative Borrower) that it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance and, if applicable, payment of the required processing fee, (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, shall be a “Lender” and shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, and (ii) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (except with respect to Section 10.3) and be released from any future obligations under this Agreement (and in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto and thereto); provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall release any assigning Lender from obligations that survive the termination of this Agreement, including such assigning Lender’s obligations under Section 15 and Section 17.9(a).

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the Assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto, (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Borrower or the performance or observance by any Borrower of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto, (iii) such Assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and

decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance, (iv) such Assignee will, independently and without reliance upon Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement, (v) such Assignee appoints and authorizes Agent to take such actions and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to Agent, by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, and (vi) such Assignee agrees that it will perform all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(d) Immediately upon Agent’s receipt of the required processing fee, if applicable, and delivery of notice to the assigning Lender pursuant to Section 13.1(b), this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee.

(e) Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks, financial institutions, or other Persons (a “Participant”) participating interests in all or any portion of its Obligations, its Commitment, and the other rights and interests of that Lender (the “Originating Lender”) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) the Originating Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Participant receiving the participating interest in the Obligations, and the other rights and interests of the Originating Lender hereunder shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the Originating Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Originating Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) Borrowers, Agent, and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Originating Lender in connection with the Originating Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iv) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the Participant has the right to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except to the extent such amendment to, or consent or waiver with respect to this Agreement or of any other Loan Document would (A) extend the final maturity date of the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (B) reduce the interest rate applicable to the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (C) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or guaranties (except to the extent expressly provided herein or in any of the Loan Documents) supporting the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (D) postpone the payment of, or reduce the amount of, the interest or fees payable to such Participant through such Lender (other than a waiver of default interest), or (E) decreases the amount or postpones the due dates of scheduled principal repayments or prepayments or premiums payable to such Participant through such Lender, and (v) all amounts payable (other than with respect to Section 16) by Borrowers hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation, except that, if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement. The rights of any Participant only shall be derivative

through the Originating Lender with whom such Participant participates and no Participant shall have any rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any direct rights as to the other Lenders, Agent, Loan Parties, the Collections of Loan Parties, the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, a Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 16 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 16.2 and the provisions of Section 14.2) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to this Section 13.1. No Participant shall have the right to participate directly in the making of decisions by the Lenders among themselves.

(f) In connection with any such assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation or any grant of a security interest in, or pledge of, its rights under and interest in this Agreement, a Lender may, subject to the provisions of Section 17.9, disclose all documents and information which it now or hereafter may have relating to Parent and its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses.

(g) Any other provision in this Agreement notwithstanding, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Bank or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR §203.24, and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under applicable law.

(h) Agent (as a non-fiduciary agent on behalf of Borrowers) shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, a register (the “Register”) on which it enters the name and address of each Lender as the registered owner of the Term Loans (and the principal amount thereof and stated interest thereon) held by such Lender (each, a “Registered Loan”). A Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be assigned or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register (and each registered note shall expressly so provide) and any assignment or sale of all or part of such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be effected only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register, together with the surrender of the registered note, if any, evidencing the same duly endorsed by (or accompanied by a written instrument of assignment or sale duly executed by) the holder of such registered note, whereupon, at the request of the designated assignee(s) or transferee(s), one or more new registered notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated assignee(s) or transferee(s). Prior to the registration of assignment or sale of any Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any evidencing the same), Borrowers shall treat the Person in whose name such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) is registered as the owner thereof for the purpose of receiving all payments thereon and for all other purposes, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

(i) In the event that a Lender sells participations in the Registered Loan, such Lender, as a non-fiduciary agent on behalf of Borrowers, shall maintain (or cause to be maintained) a register on which it enters the name of all participants in the Registered Loans held by it (and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of such Registered Loans that is subject to such participations) (the “Participant Register”). A Registered Loan (and

the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant Register (and each registered note shall expressly so provide). Any participation of such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be effected only by the registration of such participation on the Participant Register.

(j) Agent shall make a copy of the Register (and each Lender shall make a copy of its Participant Register in the extent it has one) available for review by Borrowers from time to time as Borrowers may reasonably request.

(k) In order to comply with the Dutch Financial Supervision Act (Wet op het financieel toezicht), the amount transferred under this Section 13.1 shall include an outstanding portion of at least EUR 100,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies) per Lender or such other amount as may be required from time to time by the Dutch Financial Supervision Act (or implementing legislation) or if less, the new Lender shall confirm in writing to Borrower that it is a professional market party within the meaning of the Dutch Financial Supervision Act.

13.2 Successors. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of each of the parties; provided, however, that no Borrower may assign this Agreement or any rights or duties hereunder without the Lenders’ prior written consent and notice thereof to Agent and any prohibited assignment shall be absolutely void ab initio. No consent to assignment by the Lenders shall release any Borrower from its Obligations. A Lender may assign this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and its rights and duties hereunder and thereunder pursuant to Section 13.1 and no consent or approval by any Borrower is required in connection with any such assignment.

14. AMENDMENTS; WAIVERS.

14.1 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) No amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent with respect to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders (or by Agent at the written request of the Required Lenders) and the Loan Parties that are party thereto, and then any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such waiver, amendment, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all of the Lenders directly affected thereby and all of the Loan Parties that are party thereto, do any of the following:

(i) increase the amount of or extend the expiration date of any Commitment of any Lender,

(iv) amend, modify, or eliminate this Section or any provision of this Agreement providing for consent or other action by all Lenders,

(v) amend, modify, or eliminate Section 15.11,

(ix) release any Borrower or any Guarantor from any obligation for the payment of money or consent to the assignment or transfer by any Borrower or any Guarantor of any of its rights or duties under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except in connection with a merger, wind up, liquidation, dissolution or sale of such Person expressly permitted by the terms hereof or the other Loan Documents,

(x) amend, modify, or eliminate any of the provisions of Section 2.4(b)(i) or (ii) or Section 2.4(f),

(xi) amend, modify, or eliminate the definition of Term Loan Amount, or

(xii) amend, modify, or eliminate any of the provisions of Section 13.1(a) to permit a Loan Party or an Affiliate of a Loan Party to be permitted to become an Assignee.

(b) No amendment, waiver, modification, elimination, or consent shall amend, modify, or waive (i) any of the terms or provisions of Section 2.10, without the written consent of the Required Lenders and Borrowers, and (ii) any provision of Section 15 pertaining to Agent, or any other rights or duties of Agent under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, without the written consent of Agent, Borrowers and the Required Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the consent

of Loan Parties and Lenders shall not be required for the exercise by Agent of any of its rights under this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) Anything in this Section 14.1 to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) any amendment, modification, elimination, waiver, consent, termination, or release of, or with respect to, any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that relates only to the relationship of the Lender Group among themselves, and that does not affect the rights or obligations of any Loan Party, shall not require consent by or the agreement of any Loan Party, and (ii) any amendment, waiver, modification, elimination, or consent of or with respect to any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be entered into without the consent of, or over the objection of, any Defaulting Lender other than any of the matters governed by Section 14.1(a)(ii) and (iii).

14.2 Replacement of Certain Lenders.

(a) If (i) any action to be taken by the Lender Group or Agent hereunder requires the consent, authorization, or agreement of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby and if such action has received the consent, authorization, or agreement of the Required Lenders but not of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby, or (ii) any Lender makes a claim for compensation under Section 16 and such Lender has declined to designate a different lending office, then Borrowers or Agent, upon at least 5 Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice, may permanently replace any Lender that failed to give its consent, authorization, or agreement (a “Holdout Lender”) or any Lender that made a claim for compensation (a “Tax Lender”) with one or more Replacement Lenders, and the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall have no right to refuse to be replaced hereunder. Such notice to replace the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall specify an effective date for such replacement, which date shall not be later than 15 Business Days after the date such notice is given.

(b) Prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, and each Replacement Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance, subject only to the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, being repaid in full its share of the outstanding Obligations (without any premium or penalty of any kind whatsoever, but including all interest, fees and other amounts that may be due in payable in respect thereof and its existing rights to payment pursuant to Section 16). If the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall refuse or fail to execute and deliver any such Assignment and Acceptance prior to the effective date of such replacement, Agent may, but shall not be required to, execute and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance in the name or and on behalf of the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, and irrespective of whether Agent executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance, the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance. The replacement of any Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall be made in accordance with the terms of Section 13.1. Until such time as one or more Replacement Lenders shall have acquired all of the Obligations and the other rights and obligations of the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall remain obligated to make the Holdout Lender’s or Tax Lender’s, as applicable, Pro Rata Share of Term Loan.

(c) No Waivers; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by Agent or any Lender to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or delay by Agent or any Lender in exercising the same, will operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver by Agent or any Lender will be effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the extent specifically stated. No waiver by Agent or any Lender on any occasion shall affect or diminish Agent’s and each Lender’s rights thereafter to require strict performance by each Loan Party of any provision of this Agreement. Agent’s and each Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents will be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy that Agent or any Lender may have.

15. AGENT; THE LENDER GROUP.

15.1 Appointment and Authorization of Agent. Each Lender hereby designates and appoints Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB as its agent under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the DIP Intercreditor Agreement and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent to execute and deliver each of the other Loan Documents and the DIP Intercreditor Agreement on its behalf and to take such other action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and the DIP Intercreditor Agreement and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to Agent by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the DIP Intercreditor Agreement, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent agrees to act as agent for and on behalf of the Lenders on the conditions contained in this Section 15. Any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement notwithstanding, Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement, nor shall Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement or otherwise exist against Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement with reference to Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only a representative relationship between independent contracting parties. Each Lender hereby further authorizes Agent to act as the secured party under each of the Loan Documents or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement that create a Lien on any item of Collateral. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement, Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions that Agent expressly is entitled to take or assert under or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, or of any other provision of the Loan Documents or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement that provides rights or powers to Agent, Lenders agree that Agent shall have the right to exercise the following powers as long as this Agreement remains in effect: (a) maintain, in accordance with its customary business practices, ledgers and records reflecting the status of the Obligations, the Collateral,

the Collections of Parent and its Subsidiaries, and related matters, (b) execute or file any and all financing or similar statements or notices, amendments, renewals, supplements, documents, instruments, proofs of claim, notices and other written agreements with respect to the Loan Documents or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement, (c) exclusively receive, apply, and distribute the Collections of Parent and its Subsidiaries as provided in the Loan Documents or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement, (d) open and maintain such bank accounts and cash management arrangements as Agent deems necessary and appropriate in accordance with the Loan Documents for the foregoing purposes with respect to the Collateral and the Collections of Parent and its Subsidiaries, (e) perform, exercise, and enforce any and all other rights and remedies of the Lender Group with respect to Parent or its Subsidiaries, the Obligations, the Collateral, the Collections of Parent and its Subsidiaries, or otherwise related to any of same as provided in the Loan Documents or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement, and (f) incur and pay such Lender Group Expenses as Agent may deem necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions and powers pursuant to the Loan Documents or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement.

15.2 Delegation of Duties. Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement by or through agents, employees or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney in fact that it selects as long as such selection was made without gross negligence or willful misconduct.

15.3 Liability of Agent. None of the Agent-Related Persons shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any officer or director thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of Parent or its Subsidiaries or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lenders to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the books and records or properties of Parent or its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding the terms and provisions of the DIP Intercreditor Agreement or any reference to the DIP Intercreditor Agreement or the DIP ABL Loan Documents herein, none of the Agent-Related Persons shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under the DIP Intercreditor Agreement or under this Agreement relating to the DIP Intercreditor Agreement or the DIP ABL Loan Documents unless directed in writing by the Required Lenders to take or to omit to take any such action,

which direction shall, in the case of a payment required to be made to the DIP ABL Agent, specify the amount of such payment.

15.4 Reliance by Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Borrowers or counsel to any Lender), independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless Agent shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Lenders as it deems appropriate and until such instructions are received, Agent shall act, or refrain from acting, as it deems advisable. If Agent so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take or refraining from taking any such action. Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

15.5 Notice of Default or Event of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest, fees, and expenses required to be paid to Agent for the account of the Lenders and, except with respect to Events of Default of which Agent has actual knowledge, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or any Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default, and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” Agent promptly will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice or of any Event of Default of which Agent has actual knowledge. If any Lender obtains actual knowledge of any Event of Default, such Lender promptly shall notify the other Lenders and Agent of such Event of Default. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for giving any notices to its Participants, if any. Subject to Section 15.4, Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 9; provided, however, that unless and until Agent has received any such request, 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.

15.6 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Parent and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such due diligence, documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other

condition and creditworthiness of Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrowers. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of any Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document. Except for notices, reports, and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by Agent, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document that may come into the possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons. Each Lender acknowledges that Agent does not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis to provide such Lender with any credit or other information with respect to any Borrower, its Affiliates or any of their respective business, legal, financial or other affairs, and irrespective of whether such information came into Agent’s or its Affiliates’ or representatives’ possession before or after the date on which such Lender became a party to this Agreement.

15.7 Costs and Expenses; Indemnification. Agent may incur and pay Lender Group Expenses to the extent Agent reasonably deems necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions, powers, and obligations pursuant to the Loan Documents or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement, including court costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses, fees and expenses of financial accountants, advisors, consultants, and appraisers, costs of collection by outside collection agencies, auctioneer fees and expenses, and costs of security guards or insurance premiums paid to maintain the Collateral, whether or not Borrowers are obligated to reimburse Agent or Lenders for such expenses pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise. Agent is authorized and directed to deduct and retain sufficient amounts from the Collections of Parent and its Subsidiaries received by Agent to reimburse Agent for such out-of-pocket costs and expenses prior to the distribution of any amounts to Lenders. In the event Agent is not reimbursed for such costs and expenses by Parent or its Subsidiaries, each Lender hereby agrees that it is and shall be obligated to pay to Agent such Lender’s ratable share thereof. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each of the Lenders, on a ratable basis, shall indemnify and defend the Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of Borrowers to do so) from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, that, no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct nor shall any Lender be liable for the obligations of any Defaulting Lender in failing to make an extension of credit hereunder. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Agent upon demand for such Lender’s ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys, accountants, advisors, and consultants fees and expenses) incurred by Agent in connection

with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the DIP Intercreditor Agreement to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrowers. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder, the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or replacement of Agent.

15.8 Agent in Individual Capacity. Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, provide bank products to, acquire equity interests in, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any other Person party to any Loan Document as though Agent were not Agent hereunder, and, in each case, without notice to or consent of the other members of the Lender Group. The other members of the Lender Group acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrowers or their Affiliates or any other Person party to any Loan Documents that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrowers or such other Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to the Lenders, and the Lenders acknowledge that, in such circumstances (and in the absence of a waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver Agent will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain), Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them. The terms “Lender” and “Lenders” may include Agent in its individual capacity.

15.9 Successor Agent. Agent may resign as Agent upon 30 days (10 days if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) prior written notice to the Lenders (unless such notice period is waived by the Required Lenders) and Administrative Borrower (unless such notice is waived by Administrative Borrower). If Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall be entitled, with (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) the consent of Administrative Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned), appoint a successor Agent for the Lenders. If no successor Agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Agent, Agent may appoint, after consulting with Administrative Borrower and with the consent of the Required Lenders, a successor Agent. In any such event, upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor Agent hereunder, such successor Agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers, and duties of the retiring Agent and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor Agent and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers, and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 15 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. If no successor Agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above.

15.10 Lender in Individual Capacity. Any Lender and its respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, provide bank products to, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any other Person party to any Loan Documents as though such Lender were not a Lender hereunder without notice to or consent of the other members of the Lender Group. The other members of the Lender Group acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, such Lender and its respective Affiliates may receive information regarding Parent or its Affiliates or any other Person party to any Loan Documents that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Parent or such other Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to the Lenders, and the Lenders acknowledge that, in such circumstances (and in the absence of a waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver such Lender will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain), such Lender shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them.

15.11 Collateral Matters.

(a) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, upon the written direction of the Required Lenders, to release, or subordinate, any Lien on any of the Collateral (i) upon payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations, or (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if Administrative Borrower or any Loan Party certifies to Agent and the Required Lenders that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with Section 6.4 (and Agent and the Required Lenders may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), or (iii) constituting property in which any Loan Party did not own an interest at the time the security interest, mortgage or lien was granted or at any time thereafter, or (iv) having a value in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period of less than $2,500,000, and to the extent Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) may release its Lien on any such Collateral pursuant to the sale or other disposition thereof, such sale or other disposition shall be deemed consented to by the Lenders, or (v) if required or permitted under the terms of any of the other Loan Documents, including any intercreditor agreement, or (vi) constituting property leased to a Loan Party under a lease that has expired or is terminated, or (vii) subject to Section 14.1, the Canadian Security Documents and the Security Documents, if the release is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders. Upon request by Agent or any Borrower at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing Agent’s authority to release or subordinate any such Liens on particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 15.11; provided, that, (1) Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release or subordination on terms that, in Agent’s opinion, would expose Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Lien without recourse, representation, or warranty, and (2) such release or subordination shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released or subordinated) upon (or obligations of Borrower in respect of) all interests retained by any Loan Party, including, the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. The Lenders further hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, upon the direction of the Required Lenders, to subordinate any Lien granted to or held by Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Permitted Lien on such property if such Permitted Lien secures Permitted Purchase Money Indebtedness.

(b) The Loan Parties and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, upon the written instruction of the Required Lenders, to (A) consent to, credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code or other bankruptcy laws, including under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, (B) credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale or other disposition thereof conducted under the provisions of the Code or the PPSA, including pursuant to Sections 9-610 or 9-620 of the Code, or (C) credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any other sale or foreclosure conducted by Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid or purchase, (i) the Obligations owed to the Lenders shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims being estimated for such purpose if the fixing or liquidation thereof would not unduly delay the ability of Agent to credit bid or purchase at such sale or other disposition of the Collateral and, if such claims cannot be estimated without unduly delaying the ability of Agent to credit bid, then such claims shall be disregarded, not credit bid, and not entitled to any interest in the asset or assets purchased by means of such credit bid) and the Lenders whose Obligations are credit bid shall be entitled to receive interests (ratably based upon the proportion of their Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Obligations so credit bid) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Equity Interests of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase) and (ii) the Agent, based upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, may accept non-cash consideration, including debt and equity securities issued by such acquisition vehicle or vehicles and in connection therewith the Agent may reduce the Obligations owed to the Lenders (ratably based upon the proportion of their Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Obligations so credit bid) based upon the value of such non-cash consideration.

(c) Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by a Loan Party or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or that any particular items of Collateral meet the eligibility criteria applicable in respect thereof or whether to impose, maintain, reduce, or eliminate any particular reserve hereunder or whether the amount of any such reserve is appropriate or not, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, regardless of whether Agent shall obtain its own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as one of the Lenders, and that Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender as to any of the foregoing, except as otherwise provided herein.

(d) In no event shall the Agent be responsible or liable for special, indirect, or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Agent has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and

regardless of the form of action. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein and the permissive provisions with respect to the Agent set forth herein shall not be deemed to be duties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Agent shall have no responsibility for the preparing, recording, filing, re-recording, or re-filing of any financing statement, continuation statement or other instrument in any public office. In no event shall the Agent be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Agent shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.

15.12 Restrictions on Actions by Lenders; Sharing of Payments.

(a) Each of the Lenders agrees that it shall not, without the express written consent of the Required Lenders, and that it shall, to the extent it is lawfully entitled to do so, upon the written request of the Required Lenders, set off against the Obligations, any amounts owing by such Lender to Parent or its Subsidiaries or any deposit accounts of Parent or its Subsidiaries now or hereafter maintained with such Lender. Each of the Lenders further agrees that it shall not, unless specifically requested to do so in writing by the Required Lenders, take or cause to be taken any action, including, the commencement of any legal or equitable proceedings to enforce any Loan Document against any Borrower or any Guarantor or to foreclose any Lien on, or otherwise enforce any security interest in, any of the Collateral.

(b) If, at any time or times any Lender shall receive (i) by payment, foreclosure, setoff, or otherwise, any proceeds of Collateral or any payments with respect to the Obligations, except for any such proceeds or payments received by such Lender from Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) payments from Agent in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all such distributions by Agent, such Lender promptly shall (A) turn the same over to Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to Agent, or in immediately available funds, as applicable, for the account of all of the Lenders and for application to the Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, or (B) purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in the Obligations owed to the other Lenders so that such excess payment received shall be applied ratably as among the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares; provided, however, that to the extent that such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases of participations shall be rescinded in whole or in part, as applicable, and the applicable portion of the purchase price paid therefor shall be returned to such purchasing party, but without interest except to the extent that such purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with the recovery of the excess payment.

15.13 Agency for Perfection. Agent hereby appoints each other Lender as its agent (and each Lender hereby accepts such appointment) for the purpose of perfecting Agent’s Liens in assets which, in accordance with Article 8 or Article 9, as applicable, of

the Code or in accordance with the PPSA or the Securities Transfer Act of any applicable jurisdictions in Canada can be perfected by possession or control. Should any Lender obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify Agent and the Required Lenders thereof, and, promptly upon Agent’s request (upon the direction of the Required Lenders) therefor shall deliver possession or control of such Collateral to Agent or in accordance with Agent’s instructions.

15.14 Payments by Agent to the Lenders. All payments to be made by Agent to the Lenders shall be made by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to such wire transfer instructions as each party may designate for itself by written notice to Agent. Concurrently with, or promptly following each such payment, Agent shall identify whether such payment (or any portion thereof) represents principal, premium, fees, or interest of the Obligations.

15.15 Concerning the Collateral and Related Loan Documents. Each member of the Lender Group authorizes and directs Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the DIP Intercreditor Agreement. Each member of the Lender Group agrees that any action taken by Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents relating to the Collateral and the exercise by Agent of its powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

15.16 Collateral Reports; Confidentiality; Disclaimers by Lenders; Other Reports and Information.

(a) By becoming a party to this Agreement, each Lender:

(i) is deemed to have requested that Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each collateral report respecting Parent or its Subsidiaries (each, a “Report”) delivered in accordance with Section 5.2, and Agent shall so furnish each Lender with such Reports,

(ii) expressly agrees and acknowledges that Agent does not (i) make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any Report, and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report,

(iii) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that Agent or other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding Parent and its Subsidiaries and will rely significantly upon Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ books and records, as well as on representations of each Borrower’s personnel,

(iv) agrees to keep all Reports and other material, non-public information regarding Parent and its Subsidiaries and their operations, assets, and existing and contemplated business plans in a confidential manner in accordance with Section 17.9, and

(v) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees: (i) to hold Agent and any other Lender preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or fail to take or any conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any loans or other credit accommodations that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to Borrowers, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, a loan or loans of Borrowers, and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend and hold Agent, and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including, attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred by Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender.

(b) In addition to the foregoing: (i) any Lender may from time to time request of Agent in writing that Agent provide to such Lender a copy of any report or document provided by Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent to Agent that has not been contemporaneously provided by Parent or its Subsidiaries to such Lender, and, upon receipt of such request, Agent promptly shall provide a copy of same to such Lender, (ii) to the extent that Agent is entitled, under any provision of the Loan Documents, to request additional reports or information from Parent or its Subsidiaries, any Lender may, from time to time, reasonably request Agent to exercise such right as specified in such Lender’s notice to Agent, whereupon Agent promptly shall request of such Borrower the additional reports or information reasonably specified by such Lender, and, upon receipt thereof from Parent or its Subsidiaries, Agent promptly shall provide a copy of same to such Lender and (iii) any time that Agent renders to any Borrower a statement regarding the Loan Account, Agent shall send a copy of such statement to each Lender.

15.17 [Reserved].

15.18 Several Obligations; No Liability. Notwithstanding that certain of the Loan Documents now or hereafter may have been or will be executed only by or in favor of Agent in its capacity as such, and not by or in favor of the Lenders, any and all obligations on the part of Agent (if any) to make any credit available hereunder, shall constitute the several (and not joint) obligations of the respective Lenders on a ratable basis in accordance with such Lender’s percentage of the Term Loan outstanding. Nothing contained herein shall confer upon any Lender any interest in, or subject any Lender to any liability for, or in respect of, the business, assets, profits, losses, or liabilities of any other Lender. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters relating to the Loan Documents to the extent any such notice may be required, and no Lender shall have any obligation, duty, or liability to any Participant of any other Lender. Except as provided in Section 15.7, no member of the Lender Group shall have any liability for the acts of any other member of the Lender Group. No Lender shall be responsible to Borrower or any other Person for any failure by any other Lender to fulfill its obligations to make credit available hereunder, nor to advance for such Lender or on its behalf, nor to take any other

action on behalf of such Lender hereunder or in connection with the financing contemplated herein.

In this respect, (i) Agent as agent, mandatary, custodian and depositary for and on behalf of the Lender Group, shall keep a record indicating the names and addresses of, and the pro rata portion of the obligations and indebtedness secured by the Pledge, owing to each of the members of the Lender Group for and on behalf of whom the Bond is so held from time to time, and (ii) each of the members of the Lender Group will be entitled to the benefits of any property or assets charged under the Deed of Hypothec and the Pledge and will participate in the proceeds of realization of any such property or assets.

“Dutch Parallel Debt” means any amount which a Loan Party owes to the Agent under this Clause.

“Underlying Debt” means at any given time, each Obligation (whether present or future, actual or contingent) owing by a Loan Party to a Finance Party under the Loan Documents (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any change or increase in those obligations pursuant to or in connection with any amendment or supplement or restatement or novation of any Loan Document, in each case whether or not anticipated as of the date of this Agreement, for the avoidance of doubt, excluding that Loan Party’s Dutch Parallel Debt.

(d) For purposes of this Clause, the Agent: (a) is the independent and separate creditor of each Dutch Parallel Debt, (b) acts in its own name and not as agent, representative or trustee of the Finance Parties and its claims in respect of each Dutch Parallel Debt shall not be held on trust, and (c) shall have the independent and separate right to demand payment of each Dutch Parallel Debt in its own name (including, without limitation, through any suit, execution, enforcement of security, recovery of guarantees and applications for and voting in any kind of insolvency proceeding).

(e) The Dutch Parallel Debt of a Loan Party shall be (a) decreased to the extent that its Underlying Debt has been irrevocably and unconditionally paid or discharged, and (b) increased to the extent to that its Underlying Debt has increased, and the Underlying Debt of a Loan Party shall be (x) decreased to the extent that its Dutch Parallel Debt has been irrevocably and unconditionally paid or discharged, and (y) increased to the extent that its Dutch Parallel Debt has increased, in each case provided that the Dutch Parallel Debt of a Loan Party shall never exceed its Underlying Debt.

(f) All amounts received or recovered by the Agent in connection with this Clause, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall be applied in accordance with Section 5 (Application of Proceeds) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

16. WITHHOLDING TAXES.

16.1 No Setoff; Payments.

(a) All payments made by any Loan Party under any Loan Document will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense. In addition, all such payments will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future Taxes unless

deduction or withholding of any Taxes is required under applicable law. If any deduction or withholding of any Tax is required by law, the applicable withholding agent shall make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority such amounts in accordance with applicable law. To the extent such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the applicable Loan Party shall pay such additional amounts as may be necessary so that, after such required deduction or withholding of Indemnified Tax (including any Indemnified Tax on the additional amounts payable under this Section 16.1), the amount payable to the affected Agent or Lender (as applicable) by any Loan Party is equal to same amount that would have been so payable had no such deduction or withholding of Indemnified Tax been required under applicable law.

(b) The Loan Parties shall indemnify each Agent or Lender (as applicable), within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes on the additional amounts payable under this Section 16.1) payable or paid by such Agent or Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Agent or Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Administrative Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to Agent), or by Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(c) Administrative Borrower will furnish to Agent as promptly as possible after payment by any Loan Party of any Tax in respect of any payment made by any Loan Party under any Loan Document is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by Loan Parties or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Required Lenders.

(d) The Loan Parties agree to pay any present or future stamp, value added or documentary Taxes, intangible, recording or any other similar property Taxes that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery, performance, recordation, or filing of, or otherwise with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (collectively, “Other Taxes”).

(e) The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each recipient of amounts payable under this Section 16.1, within 10 Business Days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability, which also describes in reasonable detail the basis for such payment or liability, delivered to a Loan Party by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

16.2 Exemptions.

(a) If a Lender is entitled to claim an exemption or reduction from U.S. withholding tax, such Lender agrees with and in favor of Agent, to deliver to Administrative Borrower and Agent one of the following before receiving its first payment under the Loan Documents:

(iv) to the extent a Lender is not the beneficial owner, a properly completed and executed copy of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2 or Exhibit D-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided, that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(v) a properly completed and executed copy of any other form or forms, including IRS Form W-9, as may be required under the IRC or other laws of the United States as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. withholding or backup withholding tax; or

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 16.4, in no event will Agent or a Lender be required to pay any amount to the Loan Parties pursuant to this Section 16.4 the payment of which would place Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-tax position than Agent or such Lender would have been in if the tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such tax had never been paid.
