The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” Unless the context requires otherwise (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth herein), (b) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns, (c) the words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder,” and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (d) all references herein to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules shall be construed to refer to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement and (e) the words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, when the payment of any obligation or the performance of any covenant, duty or obligation is stated to be due or performance required on a day which is not a Business Day, the date of such payment or performance shall extend to the immediately succeeding Business Day. All references to “knowledge” of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof shall mean the actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the Company. All certifications to be made hereunder by an officer or representative of a Loan Party shall be made by such person in his or her capacity solely as an officer or a representative of such Loan Party, on such Loan Party’s behalf and not in such Person’s individual capacity. References herein to the taking of any action hereunder of an administrative nature by any Borrower shall be deemed to include references to the Company taking such action on such Borrower’s behalf and the Agents are expressly authorized to accept any such action taken by the Company as having the same effect as if taken by such Borrower.

SECTION 1.04. Accounting Terms; GAAP. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with GAAP as in effect from time to time; provided that amounts of Indebtedness and interest expense shall be calculated hereunder without giving effect to FAS 150 (Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity); provided further that if the Company notifies the Administrative Agent that the Company requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the date hereof in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Company 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 change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith (it being understood that the financial statements delivered under Section 5.01(a) or (b) shall in all cases be prepared in accordance with GAAP as in effect at the applicable time). Anything in this Agreement to the contrary

notwithstanding, any obligation of a Person under a lease (whether existing as of the Closing Date or entered into in the future) that is not (or would not be) required to be classified and accounted for as a capital lease on the balance sheet of such Person under GAAP as in effect at the time such lease is entered into shall not be treated as a capital lease solely as a result of (x) the adoption of any changes in, or (y) changes in the application of, GAAP after such lease is entered into. Any financial ratios required to be maintained by the Company pursuant to this Agreement (or required to be satisfied in order for a specific action to be permitted under this Agreement) shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a rounding up if there is no nearest number). The Leverage Ratio, Consolidated EBITDA, Consolidated Total Debt, Consolidated Net Tangible Assets or any other financial test or ratio hereunder, for any specified purpose hereunder, and for purposes of determining compliance with the covenant under Section 6.05, shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis.

SECTION 1.05. Exchange Rates.

The Exchange Rates so determined shall become effective on the first Business Day immediately following the relevant Calculation Date (a “Reset Date”), shall remain effective until the next succeeding Reset Date, and shall for all purposes of this Agreement (other than Section 10.14 or any other provision expressly requiring the use of a current Exchange Rate) be the Exchange Rates employed in converting any amounts between US Dollars and Canadian Dollars, Sterling or Euro.

(b) Not later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on each Reset Date and each date on which Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, Sterling or Euro are made, or B/As are accepted and purchased, or Letters of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars, Sterling or Euro are issued, the Administrative Agent shall (i) determine the aggregate amount of each of the Global Tranche Credit Exposure and the US/UK Tranche Credit Exposure (after giving effect to any Loans made or repaid or B/As purchased or repaid or Letters of Credit issued, drawn or expired on such date) and (ii) notify the Lenders and the Company of the results of such determination.

SECTION 1.06. Letter of Credit Amounts. Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the stated amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time.

(b) Subject to Section 2.13, (i) each Global Tranche Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of (A) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in US Dollars and made by the Company, a US Borrowing Subsidiary or a Canadian Borrowing Subsidiary, Eurocurrency Loans or ABR Loans as the applicable Borrower may request in accordance herewith, (B) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in US Dollars and made to a UK Borrowing Subsidiary, Eurocurrency Loans, (C) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Canadian Dollars and made by a Canadian Borrowing Subsidiary, Canadian Base Rate Loans, (D) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Canadian Dollars and made by the Company or a US Borrowing Subsidiary, Eurocurrency Loans and (E) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Sterling or Euro, Eurocurrency Loans; and (ii) each US/UK Tranche Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of (A) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in US Dollars and made by the Company or a US Borrowing Subsidiary, Eurocurrency Loans or ABR Loans as the applicable Borrower may request in accordance herewith, (B) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in US Dollars and made by a UK Borrowing Subsidiary, Eurocurrency Loans and (C) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Canadian Dollars, Sterling or Euro, Eurocurrency Loans. Each Lender at its option may make any Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan (in which case all payments of principal and interest with respect to such Loan shall be owed to such branch or Affiliate); provided that any exercise of such option shall not reduce the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and that such Borrower’s obligation to make payments pursuant to Section 2.16 shall not increase.

(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is at least equal to the Borrowing Minimum and an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple; provided that an ABR Borrowing or a Canadian Base Rate Borrowing may be made in an aggregate amount that is equal to the aggregate available Global Tranche Commitments or US/UK Tranche Commitments, as applicable, or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.04(e). Borrowings of more than one Type and Class may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of (i) seven US/UK Tranche Eurocurrency Borrowings outstanding and (ii) ten Global Tranche Eurocurrency Borrowings outstanding.

To request a Borrowing, the applicable Borrower, or the Company on behalf of the applicable Borrower, shall notify the Applicable Agent (and the Administrative Agent if it shall not be the Applicable Agent) of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing, (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing made by the Company or a US Borrowing Subsidiary, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time on the date of the proposed Borrowing and (c) in the case of a Canadian Base Rate Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing made by a Canadian Borrowing Subsidiary, not later than 1:59 p.m., Local Time, one Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing; provided that any such notice of an ABR Borrowing to replace a Eurocurrency Borrowing Request deemed ineffective pursuant to clause (i) of Section 2.13 may be given not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing; and provided further that any such notice in respect of any Borrowing to be made on the Closing Date may be given at such later time or on such shorter notice as the Applicable Agent may reasonably agree. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Applicable Agent (with a copy to the Administrative Agent if it shall not be the Applicable Agent) of a written Borrowing Request signed by the applicable Borrower, or by the Company on behalf of the applicable Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Applicable Agent shall advise each Lender that will make a Loan as part of the requested Borrowing of the details thereof and of the amount of the Loan to be made by such Lender as part of the requested Borrowing.

SECTION 2.04. Letters of Credit.

(a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) the Company or a US Borrowing Subsidiary may request the issuance (or the amendment, renewal or extension) of Global Tranche Letters of Credit or US/UK Tranche Letters of Credit denominated in US Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Sterling or Euro to be issued by any US Issuing Bank and (ii) a Canadian Borrowing Subsidiary may request the issuance (or the amendment, renewal or extension) of Global Tranche Letters of Credit denominated in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars to be issued by any Canadian Issuing Bank, in each case in a form reasonably acceptable to the Applicable Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by any Borrower to, or entered into by such Borrower with, an Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control, and any representation, warranty, covenant or indemnification contained in or security interest, assignment or other lien purported to be created by any such application or agreement and not contained herein or created hereby shall be of no effect.

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the applicable Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Bank) to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Applicable Agent (and the Administrative Agent if it shall not be the Applicable Agent) (at least three Business Days in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount and currency of such Letter of Credit, whether such Letter of Credit is to be a Global Tranche Letter of Credit or a US/UK Tranche Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to enable the applicable Issuing Bank to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by an Issuing Bank, the applicable Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed $100,000,000, (ii) the portion of the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Bank shall not exceed the LC Commitment of such Issuing Bank, (iii) the aggregate Global Tranche Credit Exposures will not exceed the aggregate Global Tranche Commitments, and (iv) the aggregate US/UK Tranche Credit Exposures will not exceed the aggregate US/UK Tranche Commitments.

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall, except as provided below in this paragraph, expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the

issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date. Any Letter of Credit may provide by its terms that it may be extended for additional successive one-year periods under customary “evergreen” provisions on terms reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank; provided that, except as provided below in this paragraph, no Letter of Credit may be extended automatically or otherwise beyond the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Issuing Bank in respect of any outstanding Letter of Credit may extend the date of expiration of such Letter of Credit to a date after the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date on such terms and subject to such conditions as may be agreed to between such Issuing Bank, the Company and the applicable Borrower, and any agreement made by the Company or the applicable Borrower to induce an Issuing Bank so to extend the date of expiration of any Letter of Credit (i) shall be set forth in a notice delivered by the Company to the Administrative Agent promptly after the extension of the date of expiration of such Letter of Credit and (ii) shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed to be a covenant contained in Article VI hereof. Each Issuing Bank, by extending the date of expiration of any Letter of Credit beyond the Maturity Date, will be deemed to have agreed that no Lender shall have any obligation under Section 2.04(d) in respect of any LC Disbursement resulting from a drawing made under such Letter of Credit after the Maturity Date.

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, (i) in the case of a Global Tranche Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank in respect of such Letter of Credit hereby grants to each Global Tranche Lender, and each Global Tranche Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Global Tranche Lender’s Global Tranche Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and (ii) in the case of a US/UK Tranche Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank in respect of such Letter of Credit hereby grants to each US/UK Tranche Lender, and each US/UK Tranche Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such US/UK Tranche Lender’s US/UK Tranche Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Applicable Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Global Tranche Percentage or US/UK Tranche Percentage, as the case may be, of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section (or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the applicable Borrower for any reason), in each case in the currency of such LC Disbursement. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Global Tranche Commitments or US/UK Tranche Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Applicable Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement, in the currency in which such LC Disbursement shall have been made, not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the date three Business Days after the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the applicable Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 11:00 a.m., Local Time, on the date such LC Disbursement is made, or, if such notice has not been received by the applicable Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on (A) the date three Business Days after the date that the applicable Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 11:00 a.m., Local Time, on the day of receipt, or (B) the date four Business Days after the date that the applicable Borrower receives

such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that the applicable Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with (i) in the case of a payment relating to a Letter of Credit issued for the account of the Company or a US Borrowing Subsidiary, an ABR Borrowing (in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in US Dollars) or a Eurocurrency Borrowing, or (ii) in the case of a payment relating to a Letter of Credit issued for the account of a Canadian Borrowing Subsidiary, a Canadian Base Rate Borrowing or a B/A drawing (in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars), an ABR Loan (in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in US Dollars) or a Eurocurrency Loan (in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in US Dollars), and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Borrowing. Promptly following receipt by the Applicable Agent of any payment from the applicable Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Applicable Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the applicable Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. If the applicable Borrower fails to make such payment when due, directly or through a Borrowing, then, upon notice from the applicable Issuing Bank to the applicable Borrower and the Applicable Agent, the Applicable Agent shall notify each applicable Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the amount and currency of the payment then due from the applicable Borrower in respect thereof and the percentage of such LC Disbursement allocated to such Lender, which shall be (i) in the case of a Global Tranche Letter of Credit, such Lender’s Global Tranche Percentage of such amount and (ii) in the case of a US/UK Tranche Letter of Credit, such Lender’s US/UK Tranche Percentage of such amount. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each applicable Lender shall pay to the Applicable Agent its allocated percentage of the payment then due from the applicable Borrower in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Applicable Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the applicable Lenders. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. Without limiting the application of the other provisions of this Section 2.04(f), the Borrowers’ obligations to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any term or provision herein or therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by an Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of set-off against, the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder. None of the Agents, the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, or any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the applicable Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the

extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the applicable Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Bank (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, an Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

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

(h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the applicable Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at (i) in the case of any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit denominated in US Dollars, the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans, (ii) in the case of any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars, the rate per annum then applicable to Canadian Base Rate Loans, (iii) in the case of any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit denominated in Sterling, the Bank of England Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate then applicable to Eurocurrency Loans and (iv) in the case of any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit denominated in Euro, the European Central Bank Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate then applicable to Eurocurrency Loans; provided that, at all times after the applicable Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, Section 2.12(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse an Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Designation of Additional Issuing Banks. From time to time, the Company may by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders designate as additional Issuing Banks one or more Lenders that agree to serve in such capacity as provided below; provided, that no Lender shall be designated as an Issuing Bank if, after giving effect to such designation, there would be more than four Issuing Banks in addition to the number of Issuing Banks on the Closing Date. The acceptance by a Lender of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder shall be evidenced by an Issuing Bank Agreement, which shall state whether such Lender is to be a US Issuing Bank or a Canadian Issuing Bank and be executed by such Lender, the Company and the Administrative Agent, and from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of a US Issuing Bank or a Canadian Issuing Bank, as the case may be, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “US Issuing Bank” or “Canadian Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to include such Lender in its capacity as a US Issuing Bank or Canadian Issuing Bank, as applicable.

(j) Replacement of an Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Company, the Administrative Agent (which agreement shall not be unreasonably withheld), the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of any Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Company shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.11(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “US Issuing Bank” (if the replaced Issuing Bank is a US Issuing Bank) or “Canadian Issuing Bank” (if the replaced Issuing Bank is a Canadian Issuing Bank) and the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(k) Cash Collateralization. If the Commitments shall have been terminated or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Commitments hereunder terminated and the Loans hereunder accelerated, then the Company shall deposit in an account with the Applicable Agent, in the name of the Applicable Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Specified Event with respect to the Company. Such deposit shall be held by the Applicable Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents. The Applicable Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. At the request of the Company, amounts so deposited shall be invested by the Applicable Agent, at the Company’s risk and expense, in high quality overnight or short-term cash equivalent investments of prime financial institutions (which may include any Applicable Agent) maturing prior to the date or dates on which the Applicable Agent anticipates that such amounts will be applied as required by this paragraph. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Applicable Agent to reimburse any Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Company for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Company under this Agreement. If the Company is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Company within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

(l) Issuing Bank Agreement. Unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews or extends any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the face amount and currency of such Letter of Credit, the expiry date of such Letter of Credit (after giving effect to any such amendment, renewal or extension), the Borrower for whose account such Letter of Credit was issued and whether such Letter of Credit is a Global Tranche Letter of Credit or a US/UK Tranche Letter of Credit, (ii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date, amount and currency of such LC Disbursement and the Letter of Credit to which it relates, (iii) on any Business Day on which the Borrower reimburses an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank, the date, amount and currency of

such reimbursement and the Letter of Credit to which it relates, (iv) promptly following the expiry of any Letter of Credit issued by it, the identity and amount of such Letter of Credit, (iv) on any Business Day on which the Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount and currency of such LC Disbursement, (v) on or promptly after the last Business Day of each month, a listing of all the outstanding Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, setting forth as to each such Letter of Credit its amount, currency and expiry date, the Borrower for whose account it was issued and whether such Letter of Credit is a Global Tranche Letter of Credit or a US/UK Tranche Letter of Credit, and (vi) on any other Business Day, such other information related to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request. Each Issuing Bank agrees that it will not issue or increase the amount of any Letter of Credit without first obtaining written confirmation from the Administrative Agent that such issuance or increase is then permitted under this Agreement.

SECTION 2.05. Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances.

(a) Each acceptance and purchase of B/As of a single Contract Period pursuant to Section 2.01(a) or Section 2.07 shall be made ratably by the Global Tranche Lenders in accordance with the amounts of their Global Tranche Commitments. The failure of any Global Tranche Lender to accept any B/A required to be accepted by it shall not relieve any other Global Tranche Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Global Tranche Commitments are several and no Global Tranche Lender shall be responsible for any other Global Tranche Lender’s failure to accept B/As as required. Each Lender at its option may accept and purchase any B/A by causing any Canadian lending office or Canadian Affiliate of such Lender to accept and purchase such B/A, and all references in this Section to “Lender” shall apply to any such Canadian lending office or Canadian Affiliate of such Lender.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

(f) Upon acceptance of a B/A by a Lender, such Lender shall purchase such B/A from the applicable Canadian Borrowing Subsidiary at the Discount Rate for such Lender applicable to such B/A accepted by it and provide to the Canadian Administrative Agent the Discount Proceeds for the account of such Canadian Borrowing Subsidiary as provided in Section 2.06. The acceptance fee payable by the applicable Canadian Borrowing Subsidiary to a Lender under Section 2.11 in respect of each B/A accepted by such Lender shall be set off against the Discount Proceeds payable by such Lender under this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any B/A Drawing resulting from the conversion or continuation of a B/A Drawing or Global Tranche Loan pursuant to Section 2.07, the net amount that

would otherwise be payable to such Canadian Borrowing Subsidiary by each Lender pursuant to this paragraph will be applied as provided in Section 2.07(e).

(g) Each Lender may at any time and from time to time hold, sell, rediscount or otherwise dispose of any or all B/A’s accepted and purchased by it (it being understood that no such sale, rediscount or disposition shall constitute an assignment or participation of any Commitment hereunder).

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

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

(j) At the option of each Canadian Borrowing Subsidiary and any Global Tranche Lender, B/As under this Agreement to be accepted by that Lender may be issued in the form of depository bills for deposit with The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited pursuant to the Depository Bills and Notes Act (Canada). All depository bills so issued shall be governed by the provisions of this Section 2.05.

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

(l) Notwithstanding any provision hereof but subject to Section 2.10(b), the Borrowers may not prepay any B/A Drawing other than on the last day of its Contract Period.

(m) For greater certainty, all provisions of this Agreement which are applicable to B/As shall also be applicable, mutatis mutandis, to B/A Equivalent Loans.

SECTION 2.06. Funding of Borrowings and B/A Drawings.

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan and disburse the Discount Proceeds (net of applicable acceptance fees) of each B/A to be accepted and purchased by it on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds in the applicable currency by 12:00 noon, Local Time, to the account of the Applicable Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose for Loans of such Class and currency by notice to the applicable Lenders and (B) the Applicable Agent will make such Loans or Discount Proceeds available to the relevant Borrower by crediting the amounts so received, in like funds by 2:00 p.m., Local Time, to an account of such Borrower notified by such Borrower to the Applicable Agent; provided, that the proceeds of any Loans or B/A Drawing made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank.

(b) Unless the Applicable Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date (or, in the case of any ABR Borrowing or Canadian Base Rate Borrowing, prior to 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the date of such Borrowing is to be made) of any Borrowing or acceptance and purchase of B/As that such Lender will not make available to the Applicable Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing or the applicable Discount Proceeds (net of applicable acceptance fees), the Applicable Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing or the applicable Discount Proceeds (net of applicable acceptance fees) available to the Applicable Agent, then the applicable Lender and such Borrower severally agree to pay to the Applicable Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Applicable Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the rate reasonably determined by the Applicable Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount or (ii) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the subject Loan or the applicable Discount Rate and pro-rated acceptance fee, as the case may be (subject to the return of such interest as provided in the next sentence). If such Lender pays such amount to the Applicable Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing or such Lender’s purchase of B/As and the Applicable Agent shall return to such Borrower any amount (including interest) paid by such Borrower to the Applicable Agent pursuant to this paragraph.

SECTION 2.07. Interest Elections and Contract Periods.

(a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Each B/A Drawing shall have a Contract Period as specified in the applicable request therefor. Thereafter, the relevant Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing or B/A Drawing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing or B/A Drawing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section and on terms consistent with the other provisions of this Agreement, it being understood that (i) no Borrowing or B/A Drawing may be converted to a Borrowing or B/A Drawing denominated in a different currency, (ii) no B/A Drawing may be converted or continued other than at the end of the Contract Period applicable thereto and (iii) no Borrowing or B/A Drawing denominated in Canadian Dollars may be converted to a

Eurocurrency Borrowing. A Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of an affected Borrowing or B/A Drawing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing or purchasing the B/As comprising the B/A Drawing, as the case may be, and the Loans or B/As comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing or B/A Drawing.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, a Borrower, or the Company on its behalf, shall notify the Applicable Agent of such election by telephone (i) in the case of an election that would result in a Borrowing, by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election, and (ii) in the case of an election that would result in a B/A Drawing or the continuation of a B/A Drawing, by the time and date that a request would be required under Section 2.05 if such Borrower were requesting an acceptance and purchase of B/As to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Applicable Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the relevant Borrower, or by the Company on its behalf. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, this Section shall not be construed to permit any Borrower to (i) elect an Interest Period for Eurocurrency Loans that does not comply with Section 2.02(d) or (ii) convert any Borrowing to a Borrowing of a Type not available under the Class of Commitments pursuant to which such Borrowing was made.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02 or Section 2.05, as applicable:

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

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

(iii) in the case of an election resulting in a Borrowing, the Type of the resulting Borrowing; and

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

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a B/A Drawing but does not specify an Interest Period or a Contract Period, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration or a Contract Period of 30 days’ duration, as applicable. Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Applicable Agent shall advise each Lender holding a Loan to which such request relates of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing or B/A Drawing.

(d) If a Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing or B/A Drawing, then (i) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in US Dollars,

unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) in the case of any B/A Drawing, unless such B/A Drawing is repaid as provided herein, such Borrower shall be deemed to have selected a Contract Period of 30 days’ duration and (iii) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Sterling or Euros, such Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to continue such Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(e) Upon the conversion of any Borrowing (or portion thereof), or the continuation of any B/A Drawing (or portion thereof), to or as a B/A Drawing, the net amount that would otherwise be payable to a Borrower by each Lender pursuant to Section 2.05(f) in respect of such new B/A Drawing shall be applied against the principal of the Loan made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing (in the case of a conversion), or the reimbursement obligation owed to such Lender under Section 2.05(i) in respect of the B/As accepted by such Lender as part of such maturing B/A Drawing (in the case of a continuation), and such Borrower shall pay to the Canadian Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender an amount equal to the difference between the principal amount of such Loan or the aggregate face amount of such maturing B/As, as the case may be, and such net amount.

SECTION 2.08. Termination, Reduction, Increase and Extension of Commitments.

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

(b) The Company may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum, or the entire amount of the Commitments of such Class, (ii) the Company will not terminate or reduce the Global Tranche Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Global Tranche Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the aggregate Global Tranche Credit Exposures would exceed the aggregate Global Tranche Commitments and (iii) the Company shall not terminate or reduce the US/UK Tranche Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the US/UK Tranche Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the aggregate US/UK Tranche Credit Exposures would exceed the aggregate US/UK Tranche Commitments.

(c) The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments of any Class under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably agree), specifying the effective date of such election. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Canadian Administrative Agent and the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Company may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or debt securities or the consummation of a Specified Transaction, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent. Except as provided in Section 2.08(e), each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

(d) The Company may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, request that the total Commitments under any Tranche be increased (a “Commitment Increase”) by an amount for each increased Tranche of not less than US$15,000,000 or an integral multiple of US$5,000,000 in excess

thereof; provided that the aggregate amount of increases under all Tranches pursuant to this sentence shall not exceed the sum of (A)(1) US $250,000,000 minus the aggregate amount by which the Commitments shall theretofore have been increased pursuant to clause (A)(1) of paragraph (e) below plus (2) an unlimited amount so long as immediately after giving effect to such Commitment Increase, the Leverage Ratio shall not exceed 3.50:1.00 on a pPro fForma bBasis, at any time after the Closing Date at the request of the Company and with the consent of the lenders whose commitments are to be increased and (B) the aggregate amount by which new Commitments of any Class established pursuant to Section 2.08 shall exceed the simultaneous reductions in the Global Tranche Commitments and/or the US/UK Tranche Commitments of the Lenders participating in such new Class. Such notice shall set forth the amount of the requested increase in each Tranche and the date (the “Increase Effective Date”) on which such increase is requested to become effective (which shall be not less than 10 Business Days or more than 45 days after the date of such notice); provided that any existing Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the Commitment Increase may decline, in its sole discretion, to provide all or a portion of such portion of the Commitment Increase. Each Commitment Increase will be effected by a joinder agreement (the “Increase Joinder”) executed by the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and each Lender providing a portion of such Commitment Increase, in form and substance of Exhibit G attached hereto or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to each of them. The Increase Joinder may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate in the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks to effect the Commitment Increase. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, at the time of the execution of an Increase Joinder, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Commitment Increase evidenced thereby. Any such deemed amendment may be effected by the Administrative Agent with the Borrower’s consent and furnished to the other parties hereto. On the Increase Effective Date, (A) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding under each Tranche under which a Commitment Increase will become effective (the “Initial Loans” under such Tranche) immediately prior to giving effect to the applicable Commitment Increase on the Increase Effective Date shall be deemed to be repaid, (B) after the effectiveness of the Commitment Increase, the Borrowers holding Commitments under such Tranche shall be deemed to have made new Borrowings (the “Subsequent Borrowings”) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Initial Loans under such Tranche and of the types and for the Interest Periods specified in a Borrowing Request delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.03, (C) each Lender under such Tranche shall pay to the Applicable Agent in same day funds an amount equal to the difference, if positive, between (x) such Lender’s Tranche Percentage (calculated after giving effect to the Commitment Increase) of the Subsequent Borrowings and (y) such Lender’s Tranche Percentage (calculated without giving effect to the Commitment Increase) of the Initial Loans, (D) after the Applicable Agent receives the funds specified in clause (C) above, the Applicable Agent shall pay to each Lender under such Tranche the portion of such funds that is equal to the difference, if positive, between (1) such Lender’s Tranche Percentage (calculated without giving effect to the Commitment Increase) of the Initial Loans and (2) such Lender’s Tranche Percentage (calculated after giving effect to the Commitment Increase) of the amount of the Subsequent Borrowings, (E) each Lender shall be deemed to hold its Tranche Percentage of each Subsequent Borrowing (each calculated after giving effect to the Commitment Increase) and (F) each applicable Borrower shall pay each applicable Lender any and all accrued but unpaid interest on the Initial Loans. The deemed payments made pursuant to clause (A) above in respect of each Eurocurrency Loan or B/A Equivalent Loan shall be subject to indemnification by the Borrowers pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.15 if the Increase Effective Date occurs other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto and breakage costs actually result therefrom. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the Commitments under any Tranche (or in any Commitment of any Lender) or addition of any Lender providing any Commitment Increase shall become effective under this Section unless, (A) on the date of such increase, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 4.02 shall be satisfied and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such

date and executed by a Financial Officer of the Company, (B) the Company shall be in pro forma compliance with Section 6.05 (calculated using the Consolidated Total Debt as of such date immediately after giving effect to the Commitment Increase) and (C) the Administrative Agent shall have received (with sufficient copies for each of the Lenders) documents consistent with those delivered pursuant to Section 4.01 (including, at the request of the Administrative Agent, legal opinions) as to the corporate power and authority of the applicable Borrowers to borrow hereunder after giving effect to such increase, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in Section 10.02 or elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event the Company shall desire to designate after the date hereof as Borrowing Subsidiaries hereunder one or more Subsidiaries organized under the laws of Canada or any political subdivision thereof and shall determine that payments of interest or fees by any such Subsidiary to one or more of the Global Tranche Lenders would be subject to withholding taxes if made under the arrangements provided for herein, the Company may request Lenders selected by it that would be able to receive such payments free of withholding taxes to establish hereunder an additional Class of Commitments under which Loans would be made available to such Borrowing Subsidiaries and, if the Company shall so elect, to the Company and one or more other Borrowing Subsidiaries, and, subject to the provisions of the following sentence, the Company may increase total Commitments in connection with the establishment of such Class. Subject to the provisions of this paragraph, any such additional Class of Commitments may be established by a written amendment to this Agreement entered into by the Company, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender that shall agree to provide a Commitment of such Class, and shall not require the consent of any other Lender; provided, that: (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the new Commitments of any Class established pursuant to this paragraph shall not, without the consent of the Required Lenders, exceed the sum of (A)(1) US$250,000,000 minus the aggregate amount by which the Commitments shall theretofore have been increased pursuant to clause (A)(1) of paragraph (d) above plus (2) an unlimited amount so long as immediately after giving effect to such new Commitments, the Leverage Ratio shall not exceed 3.50:1.00 on a pPro fForma bBasis and (B) the aggregate amount of any simultaneous reductions of the Global Tranche Commitments and/or the US/UK Tranche Commitments of the Lenders extending Commitments as part of such new Class (and any such reductions may, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, be effected by the amendment agreement establishing such new Class without any corresponding reduction of the Commitments of the other Global Tranche Lenders or US/UK Tranche Lenders, as the case may be); and (ii) the terms applicable to the Commitments and Borrowings of any new Class shall be the same as those applicable to the original Classes except as required or deemed appropriate by the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks to make the Commitments and Loans of such new Class available to the intended Borrowing Subsidiaries. Any such amendment agreement shall, subject to the preceding sentence, amend the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to set forth the terms of such new Class and the Borrowings thereunder and make such other amendments to this Agreement (including to Sections 2.17, 7.02 and 10.02) as shall be necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Company and the Administrative Agent to make the benefits of this Agreement available to the Lenders participating in such new Class. Further, any such amendment agreement shall amend the provisions of this Agreement (including the definition of Excluded Taxes and Section 2.16) as shall be necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks to ensure that payments by or to Lenders participating in such new Class shall not be subject to withholding taxes imposed by Canada and the United States in effect on the date each such Lender becomes a participant in the new Class. The Commitments, Loans and Borrowings of any Class established pursuant to this paragraph shall constitute Commitments, Loans and Borrowings under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the Guarantees created by the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement to the extent provided therein.

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

(a) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Applicable Agent for the accounts of the applicable Lenders (i) the then unpaid principal amount of each Borrowing of such Borrower on the Maturity Date and (ii) the face amount of each B/A, if any, accepted by such Lender as provided in Section 2.05. Each Borrower agrees to repay the principal amount of each Loan or B/A made to or drawn by such Borrower and the accrued interest on such Loan in the currency of such Loan or B/A.

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

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts (including the Register described in Section 10.04) in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class, Type and currency thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of each B/A accepted and purchased hereunder and the Contract Period applicable thereto, (iii) the amount and currency of each Letter of Credit issued hereunder, (iv) the amount of any principal, interest or other amount due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to any Lender hereunder and (v) the amounts received by any Agent hereunder for the accounts of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. The Administrative Agent shall make the information in such accounts available to the Canadian Administrative Agent from time to time upon its request. The Canadian Administrative Agent shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, promptly after the making of any Loan, Borrowing or B/A Drawing or the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit with respect to which it is the Applicable Agent or the receipt of any payment of principal or interest with respect to any such Loan or Borrowing or other amounts with respect to any such B/A, information with respect thereto that will enable the Administrative Agent to maintain the accounts referred to in the preceding sentence.

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

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it to any Borrower be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, each applicable Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns and in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by each such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein and its registered assigns.

SECTION 2.10. Prepayment of Loans.

(a) Any Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing (but for greater certainty not any B/A Drawing) of such Borrower without premium or penalty (subject to Section 2.15) in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(b) If the Revolving Credit Exposures of any Class shall exceed the aggregate Commitments of such Class (other than solely as a result of changes in Exchange Rates), the Borrowers shall promptly prepay Loans and/or amounts owed in respect of outstanding B/As in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess. If the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures of any Class (in the case of Global Tranche Credit Exposures, net of any cash or cash equivalents on deposit in Prepayment Accounts) shall exceed the aggregate Commitments of such Class solely as a result of changes in Exchange Rates, then (i) on the last day of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing of such Class or any Contract Period for any B/A Drawing of such Class and (ii) on any other date in the event ABR Borrowings or Canadian Base Rate Borrowings of such Class shall be outstanding, the applicable Borrowers shall prepay Loans and/or amounts owed in respect of B/As in an amount equal to the lesser of (A) the amount required to eliminate such excess and (B) the amount of the Borrowings or B/A Drawings referred to in clauses (i) and (ii), as applicable; provided that if, on any Reset Date, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Exposures of any Class shall for any reason exceed 107.5% of the aggregate Commitments of such Class, then the Borrowers shall, not later than the next Business Day, prepay one or more Borrowings of such Class and/or amounts owed in respect of B/As in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to eliminate such excess (after giving effect to any other prepayment of Loans or B/As (including deposits made to the Prepayment Account) on such day). For purposes of this paragraph, any excess of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures of any Class (in the case of Global Tranche Credit Exposures, net of any cash or cash equivalents on deposit in Prepayment Accounts) over the aggregate Commitments of such Class shall be deemed to result solely from changes in Exchange Rates if no such excess shall have existed at the time of and immediately after giving effect to the most recent Borrowing, acceptance and purchase of B/As or reduction of the Commitments of such Class.

(c) The applicable Borrower, or the Company on behalf of the applicable Borrower, shall notify the Applicable Agent) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment of a Borrowing hereunder (i) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, three Business Days before the date of such prepayment and (ii) in the case of an ABR Borrowing or a Canadian Base Rate Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, one Business Day before the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of optional prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.08(c), then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.08(c). Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Applicable Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Except as otherwise required in connection with any mandatory prepayment, each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing; provided that a notice of voluntary prepayment of the Loans delivered by the Company may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or debt securities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the relevant Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date). Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12. In the event any prepayment shall be made hereunder but the applicable Borrower shall not have selected the Borrowings or B/A Drawings to be prepaid, the Administrative Agent shall apply such prepayment (i) first, to ABR Borrowings or Canadian Base Rate Borrowings, (ii) second, to Eurocurrency Borrowings and (iii) third, to the prepayment of amounts due in respect of B/As. No such termination or reduction shall reduce the aggregate available commitments of all Lenders to an amount less than the aggregate Loans and LC Exposures (unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped in a manner reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank) then outstanding.

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

SECTION 2.11. Fees.

(a) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fees”), which shall accrue at the “Commitment Fee Rate” determined by reference to the definition of “Applicable Rate” on the daily average undrawn amount of each Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Closing Date, but excluding the date on which such Commitment terminates. Accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof, and on the date on which such Commitments terminate. All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(b) Each Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, for the account of each Lender a letter of credit participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the date hereof to but excluding the later of the date on which the last of such Lender’s Commitments under the applicable Tranche terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure under

such Tranche, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum (or any lesser amount that the Company and such Issuing Bank may agree upon from time to time) on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank for the account of such Borrower during the period from and including the date hereof to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the last of the Commitments under the applicable Tranche and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, under such Tranche, as well as such Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued under this paragraph through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the last of the Commitments terminates and any such fees accruing after such date shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to an Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 30 days after written demand. All participation fees and fronting fees payable under this paragraph shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(c) Each Canadian Borrowing Subsidiary agrees to pay to the Canadian Administrative Agent, for the accounts of the Global Tranche Lenders (or the lending offices designated to accept and purchase B/As pursuant to Section 2.16(f)), on each date on which B/As drawn by such Canadian Borrowing Subsidiary are accepted hereunder, in Canadian Dollars, an acceptance fee computed by multiplying the face amount of each such B/A by the product of (i) the Applicable Rate for B/A Drawings on such date and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Contract Period applicable to such B/A and the denominator of which is 365.

(d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent, Canadian Administrative Agent, or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, for distribution to the applicable Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.12. Interest.

(a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate and the Loans comprising each Canadian Base Rate Borrowing shall bear interest at the Canadian Base Rate.

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

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

(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to

paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Loan or Canadian Base Rate Loan prior to the end of the Revolving Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

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

SECTION 2.13. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing:

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

(b) the Applicable Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans as Eurocurrency Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; then the Applicable Agent shall give notice thereof to the Company and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Applicable Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Borrowing Request that requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective and the applicable Borrower may instead request an ABR Borrowing not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing and (ii) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion or continuation of any Borrowing as a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective, and such Borrowing shall be converted to or continued on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (A) if such Borrowing is denominated in US Dollars (except for a Borrowing by a UK Borrowing Subsidiary), as an ABR Borrowing or (B) if such Borrowing is denominated in any other currency, or if such Borrowing is denominated in US Dollars and made by a UK Borrowing Subsidiary, as a Borrowing bearing interest at such rate as the Lenders and the Company may agree adequately reflects the costs to the Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans (or, in the absence of such agreement, shall be repaid as of the last day of the current Interest Period applicable thereto).

SECTION 2.14. Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

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

(ii) impose on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the London or Canadian interbank market any other condition or Tax affecting this Agreement, Eurocurrency Loans or B/A Drawings made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participations therein, other than any Indemnified Taxes, Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes;

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

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

(c) A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, and setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations used by such Lender or Issuing Bank to determine such amount, shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay or cause the other Borrowers to pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that neither the Company nor any other Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and delivers a certificate with respect thereto as provided in paragraph (c) above; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.15. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan to a Loan of a different Type or Interest Period other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.08(c) and is revoked in

accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment or deemed assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan or the right to receive payment in respect of a B/A other than on the last day of the Interest Period or Contract Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 2.18 then, in any such event, the applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense actually incurred and attributable to such event but excluding loss of anticipated profits. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section, and setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations used by such Lender to determine such amount or amounts, shall be delivered to the Applicable Agent (who shall promptly inform the applicable Borrower of the contents thereof) and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.16. Taxes.

(a) Subject to all the provisions of this Section 2.16 and except as required by law, any and all payments by or on account of any Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes; provided that if any Borrower or Agent shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable by such Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after ~~making~~ all such required deductions are made (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower or Agent shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower or Agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Loan Parties shall pay any Other Taxes (not otherwise addressed in Section 2.16(a)) to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) The relevant Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by such Agent or such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (except to the extent such penalties, interest or costs are attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct by a Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent), 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 delivered to the Company by a Lender or Issuing Bank, or by an Agent, on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent shall give the Company written notice of any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes to be made hereunder with respect to which the Company has an indemnity obligation, but the failure of such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent to give such notice shall not limit its right to receive indemnification hereunder, except that a failure to give such notice will constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of the first sentence of this clause (c) to the extent penalties, interest or costs are incurred solely as a result of the failure to give such notice. Such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Company in seeking a refund or return of such payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes..

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the

original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Any Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent that claims to be entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tTax under (A) (i) in the ~~law of the jurisdiction in which a Borrower to whom a Lender has made a Loan is organized or resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, or~~case of the Company or any US Borrowing Subsidiary, U.S. law or any treaty to which the United States is a party, (ii) in the case of a Canadian Borrowing Subsidiary, the laws of Canada or any treaty to which Canada is a party, or (iii) in the case of a UK Borrowing Subsidiary, the laws of the United Kingdom or any treaty to which the United Kingdom is a party, or (B) the law of any other jurisdiction with respect to which the ~~Agent,~~ Lender or, Issuing Bank or Agent receives written ~~notice of such exemption~~reasonable request for documentation from the applicable Borrower or Agent with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the ~~Company~~applicable Borrower (with ~~a copy~~copies to the ~~Administrative Agent~~Agents), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by ~~the Company~~such Borrower or Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. Such documentation shall include, as applicable and without limitation, (x) properly completed and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI, W-8IMY (including the appropriate attachments thereto) or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, in each case claiming complete exemption from United States withholding tTax along with any other documentation required by applicable law, (y) where claiming exemption under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, a statement signed under penalty of perjury that such Person is not (1) a ““bank”“ as described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a “10% shareholder” of ~~the Company~~any Borrower (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code) or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” related to ~~the Company or~~ any Loan Party within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code, together with a properly completed U.S. Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E and (z) a properly completed and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. In addition, if a payment made to an Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank under this Agreement or in respect of any Obligation of a Borrower would be subject to United States withholding tTax imposed by FATCA if such Person were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable) and such Person is claiming or seeking to claim an exemption from withholding under FATCA, such Person shall deliver to such Borrower and the ~~Administrative~~appropriate Agents, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by such Borrower or ~~the Administrative~~ Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by such Borrower or ~~the Administrative~~ Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers or ~~the Administrative Agent~~Agents to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Person has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and such Borrower from any penalties, interest or other costs incurred by such Borrower solely as a result of the failure of such Lender, Issuing Bank or Agent to comply properly with such documentation requirements.

(f) Each Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, on the date it becomes an Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder (or designates a new lending office), will designate lending offices for the Loans to be made and held by it and B/As to be accepted and purchased by it and Letters of Credit to be issued by it or in respect of which it holds a participation, and represents and warrants that, on such date (but without giving effect to any Change in Law after the date hereof), it will not be liable and the relevant Borrower will not be required to withhold or deduct for any withholding tTax that is imposed (i) by the United States of America on payments by the Company or any US Borrowing Subsidiary, (ii) by Canada on

payments by any Canadian Borrowing Subsidiary, or (iii) unless such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank is a Treaty Lender required to complete an application for a reduced withholding tTax rate under an applicable income tTax treaty with the United Kingdom in order to receive the benefit of such reduced withholding tTax rate, by the United Kingdom on payments from the United Kingdom by any UK Borrowing Subsidiary, in each case except if such Lender (or assignor, if any) was, at the time of designation of a new lending office (or assignment), unable to comply with this Section 2.16(f) because of a change in applicable law (and would have been able to comply on the date that the applicable Lender or assignor became a Lender hereunder). Each Agent, Lender and Issuing Bank shall provide documentation to the Company (with a copy to the ~~Administrative~~appropriate Agents pursuant to Section 2.16(e)) prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company to establish the foregoing. If an Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank is unable to comply with this Section 2.16(f) because of a change in applicable law described above, such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank shall provide the relevant Borrower and Agent with (i) adequate information as will permit such Borrower and Agent to determine the applicable rate of withholding tTax and (ii) any additional properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the relevant Borrower and Agent which is necessary to make such withholding on a payment made hereunder. Each Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank shall indemnify the relevant Borrower for the full amount of Excluded Taxes paid or required to be paid by a Borrower on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower hereunder or under any Loan Document as a result of such Agent’s, Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s failure to comply with this Section 2.16(f).

(g) If a Lender, Issuing Bank or an Agent (each a ““Finance Party””) receives a refund or credit in respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to this Section 2.16 and, in the case of a credit, such credit reduces the Tax liability of the Finance Party and is in the good faith opinion of the relevant Finance Party both identifiable and quantifiable without requiring such Finance Party or its professional advisers to expend a material amount of time or incur a material cost in so identifying or quantifying, the Finance Party will pay over the amount of such refund or credit to the relevant Borrower to the extent the Finance Party has received indemnity payments or additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred in obtaining such refund or credit and without interest (other than interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund or credit); provided, however, that the relevant Borrower, upon the request of the Finance Party, agrees to repay the amount it received to the Finance Party within 30 days of such request, plus penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority (except to the extent such penalties or other charges are incurred solely as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the relevant Finance Party), if the refund or credit is subsequently disallowed or cancelled. Amounts payable to a Borrower under this clause (g) with respect to a refund received by a Finance Party will be paid to the relevant Borrower within 30 days of receipt of such refund by the Finance Party. Amounts payable under this clause (g) with respect to a credit realized by a Finance Party will be paid within 30 days of the determination by the Finance Party that the credit reduced the Tax liability of such Finance Party. To the extent that a UK Borrowing Subsidiary has been required to make an increased payment pursuant to Section 2.16(a) to an Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank solely as a result of an application for relief under an applicable income tTax treaty being submitted but not processed before the relevant interest payment date, such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank shall be required to make an application under such treaty for a refund of the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes which have caused such increased payment to become payable.

(h) Each Treaty Lender and each UK Borrowing Subsidiary shall cooperate in completing any procedural formalities (including the completion and submission of any relevant form) necessary for such UK Borrowing Subsidiary to obtain and maintain authorization to make such payments of interest under this Agreement to which such Treaty Lender is entitled without deduction or withholding of Taxes. Unless such Treaty Lender is eligible to use the ~~HMRC~~HM Revenue & Customs DT Treaty Passport

scheme in relation to such payments, such Treaty Lender shall as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming a Lender under this Agreement submit an application for gross payment to its local tTax authority and provide a copy of such application to the Company. If such Treaty Lender is eligible to use the ~~HMRC~~HM Revenue & Customs DT Treaty Passport scheme in relation to such payments, such Treaty Lender shall use such scheme and shall promptly provide written notification to the Company of its intention to do so and its HM Revenue & Customs DT Treaty Passport Scheme reference number as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming a Lender under this Agreement (the “Relevant Accession Date”) and, in connection therewith, (i) each UK Borrowing Subsidiary that is a Borrower on the Relevant Accession Date shall file a duly completed form DTTP2 in respect of such Treaty Lender with HM Revenue & Customs within 30 days of the Relevant Accession Date, and (ii) each UK Borrowing Subsidiary which becomes a Borrower after the Relevant Accession Date shall file a duly completed form DTTP2 in respect of such Treaty Lender with HM Revenue & Customs within 30 days of becoming a Borrower and shall promptly provide such Treaty Lender with a copy thereof.

(i) This Section 2.16 shall not be construed to require any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to make available its tTax returns (or any other information relating to its tTaxes which it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.

SECTION 2.17. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.

(a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest or fees or reimbursements of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Sections 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., Local Time (unless a different time is specified under a particular provision hereof or thereof), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Applicable Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Applicable Agent to the applicable account specified in Schedule 2.17 or, in any such case, to such other account as the Applicable Agent shall from time to time specify reasonably in advance of the date of the required payment in a notice delivered to the Company; provided that such payments shall be subject to the principles of Section 2.16(f) (substituting “Applicable Agent” for “Lender or Issuing Bank” and “account” for “lending offices”); provided further that payments to be made directly to an Issuing Bank as expressly provided herein and payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 10.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Applicable Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any Lender or other Person promptly following receipt thereof to the appropriate lending office or other address specified by such Lender or other Person. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder of principal or interest in respect of any Loan and all amounts owing in respect of any B/A Drawing or any LC Disbursement shall be made in the currency of such Loan or B/A Drawing or LC Disbursement; all other payments hereunder and under each other Loan Document shall be made in US Dollars. Any payment required to be made by an Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if such Agent shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by such Agent to make such payment.

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

hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

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

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

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it to any Agent pursuant to this Agreement, then the Agents may, in their discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by them for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to the Agents until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

SECTION 2.18. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount or indemnify any Person pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04) its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any

unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such assignment.

(b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, (ii) any Loan Party is required to pay any additional amount or indemnify any Person pursuant to Section 2.16, (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or (iv) any Lender refuses to consent to any amendment or waiver of any Loan Document that requires the consent of all Lenders (or of each affected Lender, where such Lender is an affected Lender) and such amendment or waiver is consented to by Lenders having Revolving Credit Exposures and unused Commitments representing more than 66 2/3% of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures and unused Commitments of all Lenders, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, but with the cooperation of the Administrative Agent, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender (a “Replaced Lender”) to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Company shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and if a Global Tranche Commitment is being assigned, each US Issuing Bank and each Canadian Issuing Bank and if a US/UK Tranche Commitment is being assigned, each US Issuing Bank), if such consent would be required under Section 10.04(b), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. In connection with any such replacement, if any such Replaced Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed Assignment and Assumption reflecting such replacement within one (1) Business Day of the date on which the assignee Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Assumption to such Replaced Lender, then such Replaced Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Assumption without any action on the part of the Replaced Lender.

SECTION 2.19. Designation of Borrowing Subsidiaries. The Company may at any time and from time to time designate any Subsidiary as a Borrowing Subsidiary by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by such Subsidiary and the Company, and upon such delivery such Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be a Borrowing Subsidiary and a party to this Agreement until the Company shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination with respect to such Subsidiary, whereupon such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Borrowing Subsidiary and a party to this Agreement, provided that in no event shall the Company designate any Foreign Subsidiary (other than a Canadian Subsidiary or a UK Subsidiary) to become a Borrower (a) if such Foreign Subsidiary would be required by law, as of the effective date of such Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement, to withhold or deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder by such Foreign Subsidiary as a Borrower hereunder to any Lender, Agent or Issuing Bank, (b) if such designation or the making of loans or other extensions of credit to such Foreign Subsidiary by any Lender is prohibited by applicable laws or regulations or (c) if such designation or the making of loans or other extensions of credit to such Foreign Subsidiary by any Lender would result in any increased costs to any Lender, Agent or Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.14. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, no Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Borrowing

Subsidiary at a time when any principal of or interest on any Loan to such Borrowing Subsidiary or any B/A drawn by or any Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Borrowing Subsidiary shall be outstanding hereunder, provided that such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination shall be effective to terminate the right of such Borrowing Subsidiary to make further Borrowings and draw further B/As and obtain further Letters of Credit under this Agreement. As soon as practicable upon receipt of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement or Borrowing Subsidiary Termination, the Administrative Agent shall send a copy thereof to each Lender.

SECTION 2.20. Additional Reserve Costs.

(a) [reserved].

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

(c) Any additional interest owed pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) above shall be determined by the relevant Lender, acting in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and notified to the relevant Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) at least five Business Days before each date on which interest is payable for the relevant Loans, and such additional interest so notified to the relevant Borrower by such Lender shall be payable to such Lender on each date on which interest is payable for such Loans.

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

(a) Commitment Fees shall cease to accrue from and after the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender on the unused portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(a);

(b) if such Defaulting Lender is an Issuing Bank, fronting fees shall cease to accrue from and after the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender on the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(ii);

(c) the Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure, if any, of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action under this Agreement (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification pursuant to Section 10.02), provided that any amendment, waiver or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders or that would (i) change the percentage of Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans or LC Exposures, or the number of Lenders, that shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder, (ii) amend this Section 2.21 or Section 10.02 in a manner which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other Lenders and is adverse to such Defaulting Lender, (iii) increase or extend the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender or subject such Defaulting Lender to any additional obligations (it being understood that any amendment, waiver or consent in

respect of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default shall not constitute an increase or extension of the Commitment of any Lender or an additional obligation of any Lender), (iv) reduce the principal of the Loans made by such Defaulting Lender or any LC Disbursements or (v) postpone the scheduled date for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Loans made by such Defaulting Lender or any LC Disbursements, shall in each case require the consent of such Defaulting Lender (which consent shall be deemed to have been given if such Defaulting Lender fails to respond to a written request for such consent within 30 days after receipt of such written request);

(d) if any LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or at any time such Lender remains a Defaulting Lender, then:

(i) (x) all or any part of such LC Exposure comprising Global Tranche LC Exposure shall be reallocated among the Global Tranche Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Adjusted Global Tranche Percentages but only to the extent (a) the sum of any such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Global Tranche Credit Exposure plus its Adjusted Global Tranche Percentage of such Defaulting Lender’s Global Tranche LC Exposure does not exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Global Tranche Commitment and (b) the sum of all such Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Global Tranche Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Global Tranche LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Global Tranche Credit Commitments (it being understood that such LC Exposure shall not be reallocated after the Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated on the Maturity Date) and (y) all or any part of such LC Exposure comprising US/UK Tranche LC Exposure shall be reallocated among the US/UK Tranche Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Adjusted US/UK Tranche Percentages but only to the extent (a) the sum of any such Non-Defaulting Lender’s US/UK Tranche Credit Exposure plus its Adjusted US/UK Tranche Percentage of such Defaulting Lender’s US/UK Tranche LC Exposure does not exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s US/UK Tranche Commitment and (b) the sum of all such Non-Defaulting Lenders’ US/UK Tranche Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s US/UK Tranche LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ US/UK Tranche Credit Commitments (it being understood that such LC Exposure shall not be reallocated after the Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated on the Maturity Date);

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within five Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.04(k) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

(iii) if the Borrowers cash collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to this Section 2.21(d), the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (and such fees shall cease to accrue with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure) during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv) if the LC Exposure of the Non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.21(d), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Sections

2.11(a) and 2.11(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Adjusted Tranche Percentages; and

(v) if any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is not reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.21(d), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.11(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the applicable Issuing Bank(s) until such LC Exposure is reallocated;

(e) so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, renew extend or increase any Letter of Credit unless such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure that would result from such newly issued, renewed, extended or increased Letter of Credit has been or would be, at the time of such issuance, renewal, extension or increase, fully allocated among Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 2.21(d)(i) or fully cash collateralized by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.21(d)(ii);

(f) in the event that the Agents, the Borrowers and the Issuing Banks each agree (acting reasonably) that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of the LC Exposure of such Lender as may be necessary in order for such Lender’s LC Exposure to be reallocated to such Lender in accordance with its applicable Tranche Percentage;

(g) the reallocation pursuant to paragraph (d) above or the operation of any other provision of this Section 2.21, will not (i) constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrowers, the Agents any Issuing Bank or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender, or (except with respect to clause (f) above) cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender, or (ii) except as expressly provided in this Section 2.21, excuse or otherwise modify the performance by the Borrowers of their respective obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and

(h) anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrowers may (i) require such Lender to assign and delegate all its interests, rights and obligations under the Loan Documents pursuant to Section 2.18(b) or (ii) terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender on a non-pro rata basis upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof), provided that such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrowers, the Agents, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

ARTICLE VIII
Guarantee

In order to induce the Lenders to extend credit to the other Borrowers hereunder, the Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the payment when and as due of the Obligations of such other Borrowers. The Company further agrees that the due and punctual payment of such Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee hereunder notwithstanding any such extension or renewal of any such Obligation.

Except as otherwise provided herein, the Company waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to any Borrower of any of the Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its obligations and notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be affected by (a) the failure of any Agent or Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Loan Party under the provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any of the Obligations; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or release from, any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or agreement; (d) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of any of the Obligations; or (e) any other act, omission or delay to do any other act which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Company or otherwise operate as a discharge of a guarantor as a matter of law or equity or which would impair or eliminate any right of the Company to subrogation.

The Company further agrees that its agreement hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall have stayed the accrual or collection of any of the Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof) and not merely of collection, and waives any

right to require that any resort be had by any Agent or Lender to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Agent or Lender in favor of any Borrower or any other Person.

The obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, and shall not be subject to any defense or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever, by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Obligations, any impossibility in the performance of any of the Obligations or otherwise.

The Company further agrees that its obligations hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Agent or Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise.

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Agent or Lender may have at law or in equity against the Company by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any other Borrower to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, the Company hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by any Agent or Lender, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Applicable Agent or Lender in cash an amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Obligation then due, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. The Company further agrees that if payment in respect of any Obligation shall be due in a currency other than US Dollars and/or at a place of payment other than New York and if, by reason of any Change in Law, disruption of currency or foreign exchange markets, war or civil disturbance or other event, payment of such Obligation in such currency or at such place of payment shall be impossible or, in the reasonable judgment of any Agent or Lender, not consistent with the protection of its rights or interests, then, at the election of the Administrative Agent, the Company shall make payment of such Obligation in US Dollars (based upon the applicable Exchange Rate in effect on the date of payment) and/or in New York, and shall indemnify each Agent and Lender against any losses or reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that it shall sustain as a result of such alternative payment.

Upon payment by the Company of any sums as provided above, all rights of the Company against any Borrower arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of all the Obligations owed by such Borrower to the Agents and the Lenders.

Nothing shall discharge or satisfy the liability of the Company hereunder except the full performance and payment of the Obligations.

ARTICLE IX
The Agents

In order to expedite the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Persons named in the heading of this Agreement are hereby appointed to act as Administrative Agent and Canadian Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks. Each of the Lenders, each assignee of any Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably authorizes the Agents to take such actions on behalf of such Lender or assignee or Issuing Bank and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agents by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent and, to the extent expressly provided herein, the Canadian Administrative Agent are hereby expressly authorized by the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, without hereby limiting any implied authority, (a) to receive on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks all payments of principal of and interest on the Loans and all other amounts due to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereunder, and promptly to distribute to each Lender or Issuing Bank its proper share of

each payment so received; (b) to give notice on behalf of each of the Lenders to the Company of any Event of Default specified in this Agreement of which the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge acquired in connection with its agency hereunder; and (c) to distribute to each Lender copies of all notices, financial statements and other materials delivered by the Company or any other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents as received by the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent is hereby expressly authorized to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement in the event that all the capital stock of such Guarantor shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of to a Person other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company in a transaction not prohibited by this Agreement or as required by Section 5.09(c). It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative 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 as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

With respect to the Loans made by it under this Agreement, each Agent in its individual capacity and not as Agent shall have the same rights and powers as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the Agents and their Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent under the Loan Documents and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

The Agents shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, and their duties under the Loan Documents shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise upon receipt of notice in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that such Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law, and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose, and no Agent shall be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the institution serving as Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by a Borrower, and no Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article

IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent.

Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and in good faith believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, each Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Bank unless such Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

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

In taking any discretionary action hereunder, or in determining whether any provision hereof is applicable to any event, transaction or circumstance, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, but shall not be required (unless required by any other express provision hereof) to, communicate such proposed action or determination to the Lenders prior to taking or making the same, and shall be entitled (subject to any otherwise applicable requirement of Section 10.02(b)), in the absence of any contrary communication received from any Lender within a reasonable period of time specified in such communication from the Administrative Agent, to assume that such proposed action or determination is satisfactory to such Lender.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent (the “Successor Agent”) as provided in this paragraph, ~~any~~so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company may dismiss any Agent (the “Existing Dismissed Agent”) (x) with the Administrative Agent’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) or (y) if such Administrative Agent constitutes a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (e) of the definition thereof, by notifying the Lenders. After such notice of dismissal is sent by the Company, the Company shall have the right to appoint the Successor Agent. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as an applicable Agent hereunder by the Successor Agent, such Successor Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Existing Dismissed Agent, and the Existing Dismissed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Company to the Successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to the Existing Dismissed Agent unless otherwise agreed between the Company and the Successor Agent. After the Existing Dismissed Agent’s dismissal hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of the Existing Dismissed Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as an Agent.¶

Any Agent may resign (the “Resigning Agent”) at any time by ~~notifying~~providing 30 (thirty) days written notice to the Lenders~~, the Issuing Banks~~ and the Company. Upon any such resignation, the

Company shall have the right, to appoint a successor Agent (the “Replacement Agent) (x) in its sole discretion, if such Replacement Agent is an existing Lender or (y) with the consent of the Required Lenders (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), ~~to appoint a successor~~if such Replacement Lender is not an existing Lender; provided, that if aan Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Required Lenders, and not the Company, shall have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint ~~such successor~~the Replacement Agent. If no ~~successor~~Replacement Agent shall have been so appointed by the Company (or, if applicable, the Required Lenders) and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the rRetsirgning Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the rRetsirgning Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders ~~and the Issuing Banks~~, appoint ~~a successor~~the Replacement Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York~~, New York or Toronto or London, as applicable~~, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as an Agent hereunder by ~~a successor, such successor~~the Replacement Agent, the Replacement Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the ~~retiring Agent, and the retiring~~Resigning Agent, and the Resigning Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. If within 30 days after the Resigning Agent gives notice of its resignation, neither the Borrower (nor, if applicable, the Required Lenders) nor the applicable Agent have appointed a Replacement Agent, the Required Lenders shall be deemed to have succeeded to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Resigning Agent and the Resigning Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Company to ~~a successor~~the Replacement Agent shall be the same as those payable to ~~its predecessor~~the Resigning Agent unless otherwise agreed between the Company and ~~such successor~~the Replacement Agent. After the Resigning Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of ~~such~~the rRetsirgning Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as an Agent.

To the extent required by any applicable law, each Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 2.16, each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless each Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 10 days after written demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for such Agent) incurred by or asserted against such Agent by the United States Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of such Agent to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify such Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective) ~~unless such failure was due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent~~. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by such Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes each Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due such Agent under this Article. The agreements in this Article shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of each Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, a “Lender” shall for purposes of this paragraph include an Issuing Bank.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own

decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Arrangers shall have any duties or obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as an Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank hereunder.

In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, each Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or Letter of Credit shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether such Agent shall have made any demand on the applicable Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, Letters of Credit and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Agents and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Agents) allowed in such judicial proceeding and (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and Issuing Bank to make such payments to the applicable Agent and, in the event that an Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, to pay to such Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of such Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due such Agent. Nothing herein shall be deemed to give the Agents the right to vote the claim of any Lender or Issuing Bank in any such proceeding pursuant to such Debtor Relief Law.

SECTION 10.02. Waivers; Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay by any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

The Company will not, without the prior written consent of the applicable Indemnitee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), settle, compromise, consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not such Indemnitee is a party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination (i) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnitee from all liability arising out of such proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of fault or culpability by or on behalf of such Indemnitee.

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

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, ~~the Company, the Agents and the Lenders~~no party shall assert (and, by their acceptance of the terms hereunder, any Indemnitee shall not assert), and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, the MillerCoors Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof (it being agreed, however, that the Company’s indemnification obligations will apply in respect of any special, indirect, exemplary, incidental, consequential or punitive damages that may be awarded against any Indemnitee in connection with a claim by a third party). No Indemnitee referred to in clause (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or, the other Loan Documents ~~or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby~~, the Transactions or the MillerCoors Transactions.

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor (subject to any express time periods provided for payment set forth herein).

SECTION 10.04. Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender thereto (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that

issues any Letter of Credit), the Related Parties of each of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (other than to any ~~Competitor~~Disqualified Institution) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that (i) the Administrative Agent, the US Issuing Banks (in the case of an assignment of all or a portion of a Global Tranche Commitment or a US/UK Tranche Commitment or any Lender’s obligations in respect of its Global Tranche LC Exposure or US/UK Tranche LC Exposure) and the Canadian Issuing Bank (in the case of an assignment of all or a portion of a Global Tranche Commitment or any Lender’s obligations in respect of its Global Tranche LC Exposure) and, except in the case of an assignment (A) to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate or (B) at a time when an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), (b), (h) or (i) has occurred and is continuing, the Company must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent in each case shall not be unreasonably withheld), (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment, the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than US$10,000,000 unless each of the Company and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, (iii) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, which shall contain, without limitation, a representation and warranty from the assignee that such assignee is not a ~~Competitor~~Disqualified Institution, together with a processing and recordation fee of US$3,500 (it being understood that such fee is not payable by the Company), (iv) in connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Company and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Borrowers, each Agent, each Issuing Bank and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), (v) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and the documentation required to be delivered under Sections 2.16(e) and (f), (vi) no assignee shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16 than the assigning Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the assigned interest unless the entitlement to receive any additional amounts under Section 2.16 arises as a result of a change in applicable law after the date such assignee becomes a party to this Agreement and (vii) the assignee shall be a Qualifying Lender, provided that if the assignee is a Treaty Lender then such Treaty Lender and each UK Borrowing Subsidiary shall comply with Section 2.16(h). Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 10.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section.

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of each Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of and interest on the Loans, amounts in respect of B/As and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company, the Issuing Banks and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Loans and Commitments are intended to be treated as registered obligations for tax purposes and the right, title and interest of the Lenders in and to such Loans and Commitments shall be transferable only in accordance with the terms hereof. This Section 10.04(c) shall be construed so that the Loans and Commitments are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code.

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

(e) Any Lender may, without the consent of any Borrower or any Agent or Issuing Bank, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than to any ~~Competitor~~Disqualified Institution so long as the list of Disqualified Institutions pursuant to clause (b) of the definition thereof is available to Lenders upon request) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (f) of this Section, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender entitled to such benefits and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section, but only to the extent that such Participant agrees to comply with and be subject to Section 2.16 as if it were a Lender. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the relevant Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”). No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to the Borrowers or any other Person (including the existence or identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement) except (i) to the extent that such

disclosure is necessary to establish that such Loans or other obligations are in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the applicable United States Treasury Regulations or (ii) with respect to any Person whose interest in the Obligations is treated as a participation by reason of the penultimate sentence of Section 10.04(b). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with and be subject to Section 2.16 as though it were a Lender.

(g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or grant of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Bank”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”) of such Granting Bank, identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Bank to the Administrative Agent and the Company, the option to provide to the Borrowers all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Bank would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.01; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment to make any Loan by any SPC and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Bank shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall be deemed to utilize the Commitment of the Granting Bank to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by the Granting Bank and such Granting Bank shall for all purposes remain the Lender of record hereunder. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any payment under this Agreement for which a Lender would otherwise be liable, for so long as, and to the extent, the related Granting Bank makes such payment. No SPC (or any Person receiving a payment through such SPC) shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16 (or any other increased costs protection provision) than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the interests transferred to such SPC; provided that each SPC (or any Person receiving a payment through such SPC) shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 only to the extent such Person agrees to comply with and be subject to Section 2.16 as if it were a Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or similar proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.04 other than Section 10.04(d), any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Company and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to its Granting Bank or to any financial institutions (if consented to by the Company and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit facilities to or for the account of such SPC to fund the Loans made by such SPC or to support the securities (if any) issued by such SPC to fund such Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans (but not relating to any

Borrower, except with the Company’s consent) to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.¶

(i) In connection with a proposed assignment pursuant to this Section 10.04, the assigning Lender may request, and the Administrative Agent is authorized to provide, the list of Disqualified Institutions that the Company has provided pursuant to clause (b) of the definition thereof. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation or duty to monitor or track whether any Disqualified Institution shall have become an assignee, Lender or participant hereunder.

SECTION 10.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties herein or in any other Loan Document and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and any other Loan Document and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding (unless collateralized or otherwise backstopped in a manner reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank) and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 10.03 and Article IX shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof.

SECTION 10.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Commitment Letter and each Fee Letter constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. To the extent provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy (or other electronic transmission (including by .pdf)) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 10.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, but excluding escrow, payroll, xxxxx cash, trust, tax and fiduciary accounts) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or

the account of any Borrower against any of and all the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 10.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

(b) Each ~~Borrower~~party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court.

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

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

SECTION 10.15. USA Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrowers and each Subsidiary Guarantor that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers and each Subsidiary Guarantor, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor and other information that will allow such Lender to identify each Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with the USA Patriot Act.

SECTION 10.16. Interest Act (Canada). Whenever interest is calculated on the basis of a year of 360 or 365 days, for the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest which is equivalent to the rate payable hereunder is the rate payable multiplied by the actual number of days in the year and divided by 360 or 365, as the case may be. All interest will be calculated using the nominal rate method and not the effective rate method and the deemed reinvestment principle shall not apply to such calculations.

FORM OF AMENDED AND RESTATED SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE AGREEMENT

AMENDED AND RESTATED SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE AGREEMENT dated as of [ ], ~~2014~~201[_] among MOLSON COORS BREWING COMPANY, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), MOLSON COORS BREWING COMPANY (UK) LIMITED, MOLSON CANADA 2005, MOLSON COORS CANADA INC. and MOLSON COORS INTERNATIONAL LP (the “Initial Borrowing Subsidiaries” and, together with the Company and other Borrowing Subsidiaries from time to time party to the Credit Agreement, the “Borrowers”), each subsidiary of the Company listed on Schedule I hereto and DEUTSCHE BANK AG NEW YORK BRANCH, as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”), on behalf of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement referred to below.

Reference is made to each of (i) the Credit Agreement dated as of June 18, 2014 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Company, the Initial Borrowing Subsidiaries and other Borrowing Subsidiaries from time to time party thereto, the Lenders from time to time party thereto, the Administrative Agent, Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as an Issuing Bank, Deutsche Bank AG, Canada Branch, as Canadian Administrative Agent, and Bank of America, N.A., as an Issuing Bank and (ii) the Subsidiary Guarantee dated as of June 18, 2014 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Existing Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement”), among the Company, the Initial Borrowing Subsidiaries, each other subsidiary of the Company from time to time party thereto and the Administrative Agent. The Lenders have agreed to extend credit to the Borrowers subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. The obligations of the Lenders to extend such credit are conditioned upon, among other things, the execution and delivery of this Agreement. Each of the Guarantors (as defined below) is a Subsidiary of the Company and an affiliate of the Borrowers, will derive substantial benefits from the extension of credit to the Borrowers pursuant to the Credit Agreement and is willing to execute and deliver this Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to extend such credit. ¶

Accordingly, the parties hereto agree to amend and restate the Existing Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement in its entirety as follows:

SECTION 1. Definitions.

(a) Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings specified in the Credit Agreement.

(b) The rules of construction specified in Section 1.03 of the Credit Agreement also apply to this Agreement.

“Canadian Guarantor” means any Guarantor that is a Canadian Subsidiary other than ~~(i) Molson Coors Capital Finance ULC, (ii) Molson Coors International General, ULC, (iii) Coors International Holdco, ULC, (iv) Molson Coors Callco ULC, (v) Molson Canada 2005 and (vi) any other~~any Foreign Subsidiary that Guarantees or is otherwise liable for any of the Senior Notes.

B-2

“Guarantors” means ~~(a) the Subsidiaries identified on Schedule I hereto and (b) each other~~each Subsidiary that becomes a party to this Agreement as a Guarantor after the Closing Date until released.

“UK Guarantor” means any Guarantor that is a UK Subsidiary.

SECTION 2. Guarantee.

(a) (i) Each Guarantor (other than Canadian Guarantors and UK Guarantors) hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, jointly with the other Guarantors (other than Canadian Guarantors and UK Guarantors) and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the payment when and as due of all the Obligations;

(ii) each Canadian Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, jointly with the other Canadian Guarantors and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the payment when and as due of the Canadian Obligations of the Canadian Borrowing Subsidiaries (other than its own Canadian Obligations as a Canadian Borrowing Subsidiary); and

(iii) each UK Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, jointly with the other UK Guarantors and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the payment when and as due of the UK Obligations of the UK Borrowing Subsidiaries (other than its own UK Obligations as a UK Borrowing Subsidiary).

(b) Each of the Guarantors further agrees that the due and punctual payment of the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation. Without prejudice to the Borrowers’ rights to receive demands for payment in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and to the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Guarantors waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to any Borrower or any other Loan Party of any of the Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its guarantee and notice of protest for nonpayment.

SECTION 3. Guarantee of Payment. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that its applicable guarantee hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall have stayed the accrual or collection of any of the Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof) and not merely of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Agent or Lender to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Agent or Lender in favor of any Borrower or any other Person.

SECTION 4. No Limitations, Etc.

(a) Except for termination of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Section 20, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Obligations, any impossibility in the performance of any of the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any Agent or Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Loan Party under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any of the Obligations; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, any Loan Document or any other agreement, including with respect to any other

B-3

Guarantor under this Agreement; (iv) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations; or (v) any other act, omission or delay to do any other act that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment in full in cash of all the Obligations guaranteed hereunder by such Guarantor) or which would impair or limit the right of any Guarantor to subrogation.

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any (i) law or regulation of any jurisdiction or any other event affecting any term of an Obligation or (ii) defense of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, other than the payment in full in cash of all the Obligations guaranteed hereunder by such Guarantor. The Agents and the Lenders may, at their election, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations, make any other accommodation with any of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against any of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Obligations guaranteed hereunder by such Guarantor have been fully paid in full in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against any of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, as the case may be.

SECTION 5. Reinstatement. Each of the Guarantors agrees that its guarantee hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation guaranteed hereunder by such Guarantor is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Agent or Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, any other Loan Party or otherwise.

SECTION 6. Agreement to Pay; Indemnity; Subrogation; Contribution. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Agent or Lender may have at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor that guarantees such Obligation hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by any Agent or Lender, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Applicable Agent or Lender in cash the amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Obligations then due, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Each Guarantor further agrees that if payment in respect of any Obligation guaranteed hereunder by such Guarantor shall be due in a currency other than US Dollars and/or at a place of payment other than New York and if, by reason of any Change in Law, disruption of currency or foreign exchange markets, war or civil disturbance or other event, payment of such Obligation in such currency or at such place of payment shall be impossible or, in the reasonable judgment of any Agent or Lender, not consistent with the protection of its rights or interests, then, at the election of the Administrative Agent, such Guarantor shall make payment of such Obligation in US Dollars (based upon the applicable Exchange Rate in effect on the date of payment) and/or in New York, and shall indemnify each Agent and Lender against any losses or reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that it shall sustain as a result of such alternative payment. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums as provided in this Section 6, all rights of such Guarantor against any of the Borrowers or any other Guarantor arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash of all the Obligations owed by such Borrower or Guarantor to the Agents and Lenders.

B-4

Subject to the subordination provisions contained in the preceding paragraph of this Section 6, (i) each of the Borrowers agrees to indemnify any Guarantor making any payment as required under this Section 6 for the full amount of such payment and, until such indemnification obligation shall have been satisfied, such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the person to whom such payment shall have been made to the extent of such payment, and (ii) each Guarantor (a “Contributing Guarantor”) agrees that, in the event a payment shall be made by any other Guarantor under this Agreement, and such other Guarantor (the “Claiming Guarantor”) shall not have been fully indemnified by the Borrowers as provided for in clause (i), the Contributing Guarantor shall, to the extent the Claiming Guarantor shall not have been so indemnified by the Borrowers, indemnify the Claiming Guarantor in an amount equal to the amount of such payment, multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the net worth of the Contributing Guarantor on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 21, the date of the Supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Guarantor) and the denominator shall be the aggregate net worth of all the Guarantors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 21, the date of the Supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Guarantor). Any Contributing Guarantor making any payment to a Claiming Guarantor pursuant to this Section 6 shall be subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Guarantor under clause (i) to the extent of such payment.

SECTION 7. Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of each of the Borrowers’ and each other Loan Party’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Agents or any Lender will have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks.

SECTION 8. Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to any Guarantor shall be given to it in care of the Company as provided in Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 9. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Guarantors herein and in any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and acceptance and purchase of any B/As, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended under the Credit Agreement, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or B/A or any fee or any other amount payable under any Loan Document is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated.

SECTION 10. Binding Effect; Several Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as to any Guarantor when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such Guarantor shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent ~~and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Administrative Agent~~, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Guarantor and ~~the Administrative Agent and their~~its respective permitted successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Guarantor shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with

B-5

respect to each Guarantor and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Guarantor without the approval of any other Guarantor and without affecting the obligations of any other Guarantor hereunder.

SECTION 11. Successors and Assigns. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of any Guarantor or the Administrative Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective permitted successors and assigns.

SECTION 12. Administrative Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification.

(a) The parties hereto agree that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement of its expense incurred hereunder as provided in Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement.

(b) Without limitation of its indemnification obligations under the other Loan Documents, each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and the other Indemnitees (as defined in Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all actual out-of-pocket losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (other than Taxes which, in all cases, are subject to indemnity only pursuant to Section 2.16 of the Credit Agreement and the last sentence of this clause (b)), including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement in relation to such Guarantor or any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to the foregoing agreement, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is instituted by a third party or by any of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Parties. Subject to Section 2.16 of the Credit Agreement, all payments by each Guarantor under this Agreement shall be made without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (and the Administrative Agent and each Guarantor hereby agree to comply with the provisions of Section 2.16 of the Credit Agreement as if said Section referred to this Agreement and payments by such Guarantor hereunder).

(c) Any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional Obligations. The provisions of this Section 12 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of any Agent or Lender. All amounts due under this Section 12 shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

SECTION 13. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SECTION 14. Waivers; Amendment.

(a) No failure or delay by any Agent or Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further

B-6

exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agents and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Guarantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 14, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into between the Administrative Agent and the Guarantors with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required in accordance with Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 15. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).

EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

SECTION 16. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

SECTION 17. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 10. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission (or other electronic transmission (including by .pdf)) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 18. Headings. Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 19. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a) Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York

B-7

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

(b) Each of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section 19. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably appoints the Company as agent of process and consents to service of process to the Company in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 20. Termination or Release.

(a) Subject to the reinstatement provisions of Section 5, the guarantee of a Guarantor hereunder shall be automatically terminated when all Obligations guaranteed by such Guarantor have been paid in full (other than Letters of Credit that have expired, terminated, or are cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped in a manner reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank) and the Lenders have no further commitment under the Credit Agreement to lend to, or accept and purchase B/As issued by, any Borrower whose Obligations are guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder. Subject to the reinstatement provisions of Section 5, this Agreement shall terminate when all the Obligations have been paid in full and the Lenders have no further commitment to lend or accept and purchase B/As under the Credit Agreement.

(b) A Guarantor, including any Elective Guarantor, shall automatically be released from its obligations (or portion of such obligations in the case of clause (y), if applicable) hereunder (x) upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement as a result of which such Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Company; provided that the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction (to the extent required by the Credit Agreement) and the terms of such consent did not provide otherwise and (y) in ~~the case of any Elective Guarantor, in~~ accordance with ~~the final sentence of~~ Section 5.09(bc) of the Credit Agreement.

(c) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraphs (a) or (b), the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Guarantor, at such Guarantor’s expense, all documents that such Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 20 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 21. Additional Subsidiaries. Pursuant to Section 5.09 of the Credit Agreement, each Subsidiary that is required to become a Guarantor hereunder pursuant to the Guarantee Requirement (such

B-8

a Subsidiary, a “Required Guarantor Subsidiary”) that was not in existence or not a Required Guarantor Subsidiary on the date of the Credit Agreement is required to enter into this Agreement as a Guarantor within 15 days of becoming a Required Guarantor Subsidiary (or such later date as agreed by the Administrative Agent). Upon execution and delivery by the Administrative Agent and a Required Guarantor Subsidiary of an instrument in the form of Exhibit I hereto, such Required Guarantor Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Loan Party hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Loan Party as a party to this Agreement.

SECTION 22. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, but excluding escrow, payroll, xxxxx cash, trust, tax and fiduciary accounts) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against any of and all the obligations of such Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section 22 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 23. Judgment Currency. The obligations of each Guarantor in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, such Guarantor agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss, and if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the Applicable Creditor shall refund the amount of such excess to the applicable Guarantor. The obligations of the parties contained in this Section 23 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.¶

SECTION 24. Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement amends and restates the Existing Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement in its entirety. Notwithstanding the amendment and restatement of the Existing Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement by this Agreement, the obligations of each Guarantor outstanding under the Existing Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement as of the date hereof shall remain outstanding and shall constitute obligations of such Guarantor hereunder without novation.

A. Reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of June 18, 2014 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Company, the Initial Borrowing Subsidiaries and other Borrowing Subsidiaries from time to time party thereto, the Lenders from time to time party thereto, the Administrative Agent, Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as an Issuing Bank, Deutsche Bank AG, Canada Branch, as Canadian Administrative Agent, and Bank of America, N.A., as an Issuing Bank.

B. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement and the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement referred to therein.

C. The Guarantors have entered into the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make Loans and accept and purchase B/As upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. Section 21 of the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement provides that additional Subsidiaries of the Company may become Guarantors under the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement by execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement. The undersigned Subsidiary (the “New Subsidiary”) is executing this Supplement in accordance with the requirements of the Credit Agreement to become a Guarantor under the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make additional Loans and accept and purchase additional B/As and as consideration for Loans previously made and B/As previously accepted and purchased.

Accordingly, the Administrative Agent and the New Subsidiary agree as follows:

SECTION 1. In accordance with Section 21 of the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement, the New Subsidiary by its signature below becomes a Guarantor under the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a Guarantor and the New Subsidiary hereby (a) agrees to all the terms and provisions of the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement applicable to it as a Guarantor thereunder and (b) represents and warrants that the representations and warranties made by it as a Guarantor thereunder are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof. Each reference to a “Guarantor” in the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Subsidiary. The Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

SECTION 2. The New Subsidiary represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

SECTION 3. This Supplement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Supplement shall become effective when the Administrative Agent shall have received ~~counterparts~~a counterpart of this Supplement that~~, when taken together, bear the signatures~~ bears the signature of the New Subsidiary ~~and the Administrative Agent~~. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Supplement by facsimile transmission (or other electronic transmission (including by .pdf)) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Supplement.

SECTION 4. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 5. THIS SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SECTION 6. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Supplement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

SECTION 7. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 8 of the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to the New Subsidiary shall be given to it at the address set forth under its signature below.

SECTION 8. The New Subsidiary agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Supplement, including the reasonable fees, other charges and out-of-pocket disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent to the extent payable pursuant to Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the New Subsidiary and the Administrative Agent have duly executed this Supplement to the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement as of the day and year first above written.
