W I T N E S S E T H :
-------------------
WHEREAS, subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, the
Lenders are willing to make available to the Borrowers the respective credit
facilities provided for herein;
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED:
SECTION 1. Amount and Terms of Credit.
--------------------------
1.01 Revolving Commitments.
---------------------
(a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein,
(x) each Revolver Lender (other than a Canadian Lender in its capacity as such)
severally agrees to make a revolving loan or revolving loans to Workflow, which
revolving loans shall be made and maintained in Dollars (each a "Dollar
Revolving Loan" and, collectively, the "Dollar Revolving Loans") and (y) each
Canadian Lender severally agrees to make a revolving loan or revolving loans to
DBF, which revolving loans shall be made and maintained in Canadian Dollars
(each a "Canadian Revolving Loan" and, collectively, the "Canadian Revolving
Loans", and with the revolving loans made to the Borrowers pursuant to this
Section 1.01(a) being herein called a "Revolving Loan" and, collectively, the
"Revolving Loans"), which Revolving Loans:
(i) shall be made (X) at any time and from time to time on and
after the Effective Date and prior to the Final Maturity Date in the case
of the Dollar Revolver Loans and (Y) at any time and from time to time on
and after the Canadian Effective Date and prior to the Canadian Term Out
Date in the case of the Canadian Revolver Loans;
(ii) shall, in the case of Dollar Revolving Loans, and at the
option of Workflow, be incurred and maintained as, and/or converted into,
Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans, provided that (A) except as otherwise
--------
specifically provided herein, all Dollar Revolving Loans comprising the
same Borrowing shall be of the same Type and (B) prior to the Syndication
Date, Dollar Revolving Loans may only be incurred as Eurodollar Loans on
the first day of a PSD Interest Period;
(iii) shall, in the case of Canadian Revolving Loans, and at the
option of DBF, be made either by means of (x) Canadian Prime Rate Loans in
Canadian Dollars or (y) Bankers' Acceptances Loans in Canadian Dollars on
the terms and conditions provided for herein and in Annex III (the terms
and conditions of which shall be deemed incorporated by reference into this
Agreement);
(iv) may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the
provisions hereof;
(v) shall not be made (or be required to be made) by any
Revolver Lender on any date if, after giving effect thereto, the Revolving
Credit Exposure of such Revolver Lender would exceed the Revolving
Commitment of such Lender at such time;
(vi) shall not, in the case of Canadian Revolving Loans,
exceed for any Canadian Lender at the time of the making of any such
Canadian Revolving Loans, and after giving effect thereto, that aggregate
principal amount or Face Amount, as the case may be, of such Canadian
Revolving Loans (for this purpose, using the Dollar Equivalent of the
principal amount or Face Amount, as the case may be, thereof) which, when
added to the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount or Face
Amount, as the case may be, of all other Canadian Revolving Loans then
outstanding from such Canadian Lender, equals the lesser of (i) the
Canadian Sub-Commitment of such Canadian Lender at such time and (ii) the
Canadian Percentage of such Canadian Lender times the Canadian EBITDA
-----
Sublimit at such time;
(vii) shall not, in the case of Canadian Revolving Loans,
exceed for all Canadian Lenders at the time of the making of any such
Canadian Revolving Loans, and after giving effect thereto, that aggregate
principal amount or Face Amount, as the case may be, of such Canadian
Revolving Loans (for this purpose, using the Dollar Equivalent of the
principal amount or Face Amount, as the case may be, thereof) which, when
added to the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount or Face
Amount, as the case may be, of all other Canadian Revolving Loans then
outstanding, equals the lesser of (i) Total Canadian Sub-Commitment at such
time and (ii) the Canadian EBITDA Sublimit at such time;
(viii) shall not, in the case of Dollar Revolving Loans, exceed
for all Revolver Lenders at the time of the making of any such Dollar
Revolving Loans, and after giving effect thereto, that aggregate principal
amount of such Dollar Revolving Loans which, when added to the sum of (I)
the aggregate principal amount of all other Dollar Revolving Loans then
outstanding, (II) the aggregate principal amount of all Swingline Loans
then outstanding and (III) the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit
Outstandings at such time, equals the Total Dollar Revolving Sub-Commitment
at such time; and
(ix) shall not, in the case of all Revolving Loans, be made at
any time if, after giving effect thereto, the Aggregate Revolving Credit
Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Commitment at such time.
(b) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein,
each Dollar Term Lender severally agrees to make term loans to Workflow in the
amount of its Dollar Term Loan Commitment, which term loans shall be made and
maintained in Dollars (the "Dollar Term Loans"), which Dollar Term Loans;
(i) shall be made on the Effective Date; and
(ii) shall, at the option of Workflow, be incurred and
maintained as, and/or converted into, Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans,
provided that (A) except as
--------
2
otherwise specifically provided herein, all Dollar Term Loans comprising
the same Borrowing shall be of the same Type and (B) prior to the
Syndication Date, Dollar Term Loans may only be incurred as or converted
into Eurodollar Loans on the first day of a PSD Interest Period.
(c) (A) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth
herein, Fleet in its individual capacity agrees to make, at any time and from
time to time on and after the Effective Date and prior to the Swingline Expiry
Date, a revolving loan or revolving loans to Workflow (each a "Swingline Loan"
and, collectively, the "Swingline Loans"), which Swingline Loans:
(i) shall be made and maintained in Dollars and as Base Rate
Loans;
(ii) may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the
provisions hereof;
(iii) shall not be made (or required to be made) on any date
if, after giving effect thereto, the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure
would exceed the Total Revolving Commitment at such time; and
(iv) shall not exceed in aggregate principal amount at any
time outstanding the Maximum Swingline Amount.
(B) Fleet shall not be obligated to make any Swingline Loans
at a time when a Lender Default exists unless Fleet has entered into
arrangements satisfactory to it and Workflow to eliminate Fleet's risk with
respect to the Defaulting Lender's or Lenders' participation in such Swingline
Loans, including by cash collateralizing each such Defaulting Lender's Dollar
Percentage of the outstanding Swingline Loans. Fleet will not make a Swingline
Loan after it has received written notice from Workflow, any other Credit Party
or the Required Lenders stating that a Default or an Event of Default exists
until such time as (x) Fleet shall have received a written notice of (i)
rescission of such notice from the party or parties originally delivering the
same or (ii) the waiver of such Default or Event of Default from the Required
Lenders or (y) the cure of such Default or Event of Default.
(C) On any Business Day, Fleet may, in its sole discretion,
give notice to the Revolver Lenders that its outstanding Swingline Loans shall
be funded with a Borrowing of Dollar Revolving Loans (provided that each such
notice shall be deemed to have been automatically given upon the occurrence of a
Default or an Event of Default under Section 9.05 or upon the exercise of any of
the remedies provided in the last paragraph of Section 9), in which case a
Borrowing or Borrowings of Dollar Revolving Loans, as the case may be,
constituting Base Rate Loans (each such Borrowing or Borrowings, collectively, a
"Mandatory Borrowing") shall be made on the immediately succeeding Business Day
by all Revolver Lenders pro rata based on each Revolver Lender's Dollar
Percentage, and the proceeds thereof shall be applied directly to repay Fleet
for such outstanding Swingline Loans. Each Revolver Lender hereby irrevocably
agrees to make Dollar Revolving Loans upon one Business Day's notice pursuant to
each Mandatory Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the
preceding sentence and on the date specified in writing by Fleet notwithstanding
(i) that the amount of the Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the Minimum
Borrowing Amount otherwise required hereunder, (ii) whether any conditions
specified in Section 5 are then satisfied, (iii) whether a Default or an Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing, (iv) the date of such Mandatory
Borrowing and (v) the amount of, or termination of, the
3
Total Revolving Commitment at such time. In the event that any Mandatory
Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above
(including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding
under the Bankruptcy Code in respect of Workflow), each Revolver Lender (other
than Fleet) hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the
Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments
received from Workflow on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from
Fleet such participations in the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be
necessary to cause such Revolver Lenders to share in such Swingline Loans
ratably based upon their respective Dollar Percentages, provided that (x) all
--------
interest payable on the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of Fleet until
the date as of which the respective participation is required to be purchased
and, to the extent attributable to the purchased participation, shall be payable
to the participant from and after such date and (y) at the time any purchase of
participations pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing
Revolver Lender shall be required to pay Fleet interest on the principal amount
of the participation purchased for each day from and including the day upon
which the respective participation would otherwise have occurred to but
excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the Federal Funds
Effective Rate for the first day and at the rate otherwise applicable to Dollar
Revolving Loans maintained as Base Rate Loans hereunder for each day thereafter.
(d) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein,
each Lender severally agrees that Workflow may, in accordance with the
procedures established pursuant to Section 1.04, incur a loan or loans (each a
"Competitive Bid Loan" and, collectively, the "Competitive Bid Loans"),
denominated in Dollars, pursuant to a Competitive Bid Borrowing at any time and
from time to time after the Effective Date and prior to the date which is 30
days prior to the Final Maturity Date, provided that no Competitive Bid Loan may
--------
be made if, after giving effect thereto, (i) the Aggregate Revolving Credit
Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Commitment as then in effect or (ii)
the aggregate principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans would exceed the Total
Competitive Bid Loan Limit, provided further that no Competitive Bid Loan may be
-------- -------
made if, after giving effect thereto, the Leverage Ratio would be greater than
or equal to 3.25:1.00. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in Sections 1.04 and 5, Competitive Bid Loans may be repaid
and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof.
1.02 Minimum Borrowing Amounts, etc. The aggregate principal amount of
------------------------------
each Borrowing of Loans (other than Revolving Loans made pursuant to a Mandatory
Borrowing) shall not be less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable
thereto. More than one Borrowing may be incurred on any day, provided that at
no time shall there be outstanding more than ten Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans
(or such greater number of Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans as is acceptable to
the Agent).
1.03 Notice of Borrowing.
-------------------
(a) Whenever a Borrower desires to incur Revolving Loans hereunder
(excluding (x) Revolving Loans incurred pursuant to a Mandatory Borrowing and
(y) Borrowings of Canadian Prime Rate Loans to the extent resulting from
automatic conversions of Bankers' Acceptance Loans as provided in clause (i) of
Annex III), such Borrower shall give the Agent at the Notice Office (and, in the
case of Canadian Revolving Loans, such Borrower shall also give the Canadian Co-
Agent at the Canadian Notice Office), (w) prior to 11:00 A.M. (New York time),
at least three Business Days' prior written notice (or telephonic notice
promptly confirmed in writing) of each Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, (x) prior
to 11:00 A.M. (New York time), written notice (or telephonic notice promptly

4
A.M. (New York time), at least three Business Days' prior written notice (or
telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each Borrowing of Banker's
Acceptance Loans, and (z) prior to 11:00 A.M. (New York time) written notice (or
telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) on the date of each Borrowing
of Canadian Prime Rate Loans. Each such notice (each, a "Notice of Borrowing")
shall, except as provided in Section 1.11(a) or (b), be irrevocable, and, in the
case of each written notice and each written confirmation of telephonic notice,
shall be in the form of Exhibit A-1, appropriately completed to specify: (i) the
aggregate principal amount (or Face Amount, as the case may be) of the Revolving
Loans to be incurred pursuant to such Borrowing (stated in the Applicable
Currency); (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day);
(iii) in the case of Dollar Revolving Loans, whether the respective Borrowing
shall consist of Base Rate Loans or, to the extent permitted hereunder,
Eurodollar Loans and, if Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period to be initially
applicable thereto; and (iv) in the case of Canadian Revolving Loans, whether
the Canadian Revolving Loans being made pursuant to such Borrowing are to be
initially maintained as Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Bankers' Acceptance Loans
and, if Bankers' Acceptance Loans, the term thereof (which shall comply with the
requirements of clause (a) of Annex III).
(b) (i) Whenever Workflow desires to incur Swingline Loans
hereunder, Workflow shall give Fleet no later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on
the day such Swingline Loan is to be incurred, written notice (or telephonic
notice promptly confirmed in writing) of such Swingline Loan. Each such notice
shall be irrevocable and shall specify in each case (x) the date of such
incurrence (which shall be a Business Day) and (y) the aggregate principal
amount of the Swingline Loan requested to be made.
(ii) Mandatory Borrowings shall be made upon the notice specified
in Section 1.01(c)(C), with Workflow irrevocably agreeing, by its incurrence of
any Swingline Loan, to the making of Mandatory Borrowings as set forth in such
Section 1.01(c)(C).
(c) The Agent (or, in the case of the Canadian Revolving Loans, the
Canadian Co-Agent) shall promptly give each Lender written notice (or telephonic
notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each proposed Borrowing of Revolving
Loans, of such Lender's proportionate share thereof, and of the other matters
covered by the respective Notice of Borrowing.
(d) Without in any way limiting the obligation of any Borrower to
confirm in writing any telephonic notice permitted to be given hereunder, the
Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent (in the case of a Borrowing of Canadian Revolving
Loans) or Fleet (in the case of a Borrowing of Swingline Loans), as the case may
be, may prior to receipt of written confirmation act without liability upon the
basis of such telephonic notice, believed by the Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent or
Fleet in good faith to be from the president, any vice-president or any
Authorized Financial Officer of such Borrower, or from any other authorized
officer of such Borrower designated in writing by such Borrower to the Agent,
the Canadian Co-Agent or Fleet, as applicable, as being authorized to give such
notices. In each such case, each Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute
the Agent's, the Canadian Co-Agent's or Fleet's record of the terms of such
telephonic notice.
1.04 Competitive Bid Borrowings.
--------------------------
(a) Whenever Workflow desires to incur a Competitive Bid Borrowing,
Workflow shall deliver to the Agent at the Notice Office prior to 11:00 A.M.
(New York time), at least three Business Days prior to the date of such proposed
Competitive Bid Borrowing, a written notice substantially in the form of Exhibit
B (each a "Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing"), such
5
notice to specify in each case (i) the date of the proposed Competitive Bid
Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the aggregate principal amount
of the proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing (which shall not be less than the
Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto), (iii) the maturity date (each a
"Competitive Bid Loan Maturity Date") for repayment of each Competitive Bid Loan
to be made as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing (which maturity date may
not be earlier than seven days after the date of such Competitive Bid Borrowing
or later than 360 days after the date of such Competitive Bid Borrowing (but in
no event later than the thirtieth day preceding the Final Maturity Date)), (iv)
the interest payment date or dates relating thereto (which shall be at least
every three months in the case of maturities in excess of three months), and (v)
any other terms to be applicable to such Competitive Bid Borrowing (although all
Competitive Bid Borrowings shall be required to be made, and maintained, in
Dollars). The Agent shall promptly notify each Bidder Lender of each such
request for a Competitive Bid Borrowing received by it from Workflow by
telecopying to each such Bidder Lender a copy of the related Notice of
Competitive Bid Borrowing.
(b) Each Bidder Lender shall, if in its sole discretion it elects to
do so, irrevocably offer to make one or more Competitive Bid Loans to Workflow
as part of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing at a rate or rates of
interest specified by such Bidder Lender in its sole discretion and determined
by such Bidder Lender independently of each other Bidder Lender, by notifying
the Agent in writing (which notice shall be promptly distributed to Workflow,
provided that the Agent shall not be liable to any Bidder Lender or to Workflow
--------
for failure to distribute any such notice to Workflow unless such failure
resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the
Agent (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction)), before
10:00 A.M. (New York time) on the date (the "Reply Date") which is two Business
Days before the date of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, of the minimum
amount, if any, and maximum amount of each Competitive Bid Loan which such
Bidder Lender would be willing to make as part of such proposed Competitive Bid
Borrowing (which amounts may, subject to the proviso to the first sentence of
Section 1.01(d), exceed such Lender's Revolving Commitment) and the rate or
rates of interest therefor; provided, that if the Agent in its capacity as a
--------
Bidder Lender shall, in its sole discretion, elect to make any such offer, it
shall notify Workflow in writing of such offer before 9:30 A.M. (New York time)
on the Reply Date. If any Bidder Lender shall elect not to make such an offer,
such Bidder Lender shall so notify the Agent, before 10:00 A.M. (New York time)
on the Reply Date, and such Bidder Lender shall not be obligated to, and shall
not, make any Competitive Bid Loan as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing;
provided, that the failure by any Bidder Lender to give such notice shall not
--------
cause such Bidder Lender to be obligated to, and such Bidder Lender shall not,
make any Competitive Bid Loan as part of such proposed Competitive Bid
Borrowing.
(c) Workflow shall, in turn, before 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the
Reply Date, either
(1) cancel such Competitive Bid Borrowing by giving the Agent
notice (in writing or by telephone promptly confirmed in writing) to that
effect, or
(2) accept one or more of the offers made by any Bidder Lender
or Bidder Lenders pursuant to clause (b) above by giving notice (in writing
or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Agent of the amount of each
Competitive Bid Loan (which amount shall be equal to or greater than the
minimum amount, if any, and equal to or less than the maximum amount,
notified to Workflow by the Agent on behalf of each such Bidder Lender for
such Competitive Bid Borrowing) and reject any remaining offers made by
Bidder Lenders pursuant to clause (b) above by giving the Agent notice to
that effect; provided that
--------
6
acceptance of offers may only be made on the basis of ascending Absolute
Rates commencing with the lowest rate so offered; provided further,
----------------
however, if offers are made by two or more Bidder Lenders at the same rate
-------
and acceptance of all such equal offers would result in a greater principal
amount of Competitive Bid Loans being accepted than the aggregate principal
amount requested by Workflow, Workflow shall have the right to accept one
or more such equal offers in their entirety and reject the other equal
offer or offers or to allocate acceptance among all such equal offers (but
giving effect to the minimum amounts, if any, and maximum amounts specified
for each such offer pursuant to clause (b) above), as Workflow may elect in
its sole discretion.
(d) If Workflow notifies the Agent that such Competitive Bid
Borrowing is canceled pursuant to clause (c)(1) above, the Agent shall give
prompt written notice thereof to the Bidder Lenders and such Competitive Bid
Borrowing shall not be made.
(e) If Workflow accepts one or more of the offers made by any Bidder
Lender or Bidder Lenders pursuant to clause (c)(2) above, the Agent shall in
turn promptly notify (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) (x) each
Bidder Lender that has made an offer as described in clause (b) above, of the
date and aggregate amount of such Competitive Bid Borrowing and whether or not
any offer or offers made by such Bidder Lender pursuant to clause (b) above have
been accepted by Workflow and (y) each Bidder Lender that is to make a
Competitive Bid Loan as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, of the amount of
each Competitive Bid Loan to be made by such Bidder Lender as part of such
Competitive Bid Borrowing.
(f) On the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, the Agent
shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of the aggregate principal amount of
Competitive Bid Loans outstanding to Workflow at such time.

each Notice of Borrowing (or (w) in the case of Swingline Loans, no later than
2:00 P.M. (New York time) on the date specified in the notice delivered pursuant
to Section 1.03(b), (x) in the case of Mandatory Borrowings, no later than 12:00
Noon (New York time) on the date specified in Section 1.01(c)(C), (y) in the
case of Competitive Bid Loans, no later than 1:00 P.M. (New York time) on the
date specified pursuant to Section 1.04(a)), each Revolver Lender (or, in the
case of a Borrowing of Canadian Revolving Loans, each Canadian Lender) will make
available its pro rata share of each Borrowing requested to be made on such date
(or (x) in the case of Swingline Loans, Fleet shall make available the full
amount thereof and (y) in the case of Competitive Bid Loans, the respective
Bidder Lenders which are to make such Competitive Bid Loans in accordance with
Section 1.04(e) shall make available their respective amounts thereof) in the
manner provided below:
(i) All amounts in respect of Dollar Loans shall be made
available to the Agent in Dollars and immediately available funds at the
appropriate Payment Office and, except for Revolving Loans made pursuant to
a Mandatory Borrowing, the Agent promptly will make available to the
respective Borrower by depositing to its account at the appropriate Payment
Office the aggregate of the amounts so made available in the type of funds
received. Unless the Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to
the date of Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to
the Agent its portion of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be made on such
date, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such
7
amount available to the Agent on such date of Borrowing, and the Agent, in
reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion and without any
obligation to do so) make available to the respective Borrower a
corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made
available to the Agent by such Lender and the Agent has made available same
to the respective Borrower, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such
corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such
corresponding amount forthwith upon the Agent's demand therefor, the Agent
shall promptly notify the respective Borrower, and such Borrower shall
immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Agent. The Agent shall
also be entitled to recover from such Lender or such Borrower, as the case
may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from
the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Agent to such
Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Agent,
at a rate per annum equal to (x) if paid by such Lender, the Federal Funds
Effective Rate or (y) if paid by such Borrower, the then applicable rate of
interest, calculated in accordance with Section 1.09, for the respective
Loans.
(ii) All amounts in respect of Canadian Revolving Loans shall be
made available to the Canadian Co-Agent in Canadian Dollars and immediately
available funds at the appropriate Payment Office and the Canadian Co-Agent
promptly will make available to DBF by depositing to its account at the
appropriate Payment Office the aggregate of the amounts so made available
in the type of funds received. Unless the Canadian Co-Agent shall have
been notified by any Canadian Lender prior to the date of Borrowing that
such Lender does not intend to make available to the Canadian Co-Agent its
portion of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be made on such date, the
Canadian Co-Agent may assume that such Canadian Lender has made such amount
available to the Canadian Co-Agent on such date of Borrowing, and the
Canadian Co-Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole
discretion and without any obligation to do so) make available to DBF a
corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made
available to the Canadian Co-Agent by such Canadian Lender and the Canadian
Co-Agent has made available same to DBF, the Canadian Co-Agent shall be
entitled to recover such corresponding amount from such Canadian Lender.
If such Canadian Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith
upon the Canadian Co-Agent's demand therefor, the Canadian Co-Agent shall
promptly notify DBF, and DBF shall immediately pay such corresponding
amount to the Canadian Co-Agent. The Canadian Co-Agent shall also be
entitled to recover from such Canadian Lender or DBF, as the case may be,
interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date
such corresponding amount was made available by the Canadian Co-Agent to
DBF to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Canadian Co-
Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (x) if paid by such Canadian Lender,
the prevailing interbank rate for late payments or (y) if paid by DBF, the
then applicable rate of interest, calculated in accordance with Section
1.09, for the respective Loans.
(b) Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its
obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights which
any Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such
Lender hereunder.

Property located in Canada, overdue principal in respect of any Canadian
Revolving Loans and Canadian Term Loans shall bear interest at the rate

Notice of Conversion in respect of the making of, or conversion into, a
Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans (in the case of the initial Interest Period
applicable thereto) or prior to 11:00 A.M. (New York time) on the third Business
Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of
Eurodollar Loans, Workflow shall have the right to elect, by giving the Agent
written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing), the
Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing, which Interest Period shall, at

--------
(i) all Eurodollar Loans comprising a Borrowing shall at all
times have the same Interest Period;
(ii) the initial Interest Period for any Borrowing of
Eurodollar Loans shall commence on the date of such Borrowing (including
the date of any conversion from a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans) and each
Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Borrowing shall
commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period expires;

no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such
Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of
such calendar month;
(iv) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day
which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next
succeeding Business Day, provided, that if any Interest Period would
otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the
month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such
Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;
(v) subject to the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv), only a
one month Interest Period shall be available to be selected prior to the

commence and end on the same day;
(vi) no Interest Period may be elected if it would extend
beyond the Final Maturity Date; and

Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans as provided above, Workflow shall be deemed to
have elected to convert such Borrowing into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans
effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.

--------------------------------
(a) In the event that (x) in the case of clause (i) below, the Agent,
(y) in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) below, any Lender, or (z) in the case
of clause (iv) below, the Canadian Co-Agent shall have determined (which

basis provided for in the definition of Eurodollar Rate; or
(ii) at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased costs
or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect
to any Eurodollar Loans or Competitive Bid Loans because of (x) any change
since the date of this Agreement in any applicable law, governmental rule,
regulation, guideline, order or request (whether or not having the force of
law), or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including the
adoption or introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation,

of or interest on the Loans, the Notes or any other amounts payable
hereunder (except for changes in the rate of tax on, or determined by
reference to, the net income or profits of such Lender pursuant to the laws
of the jurisdiction in which it is organized or in which its principal
office or applicable lending office is located or any subdivision thereof
or therein) or (B) a change in official reserve requirements, but, in all
events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent
included in the computation of the Eurodollar Rate and/or (y) other
circumstances since the date of this Agreement affecting such Lender, the
interbank Eurodollar market or the position of such Lender in such market;
or
(iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any
Eurodollar Loan or Competitive Bid Loan has been made (x) unlawful by any
law or governmental rule, regulation or order, (y) impossible by compliance
by any Lender in good faith with any governmental request (whether or not
having force of law) or (z) impracticable as a result of a contingency
occurring after the date of this Agreement which materially and adversely
affects the interbank Eurodollar market; or
14
(iv) at any time that Canadian Dollars are not available in
sufficient amounts, as determined in good faith by the Agent, to fund any
Borrowing of Canadian Revolving Loans requested pursuant to Section 1.01;

Lender (in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above) or the Canadian Co-Agent
(in the case of clause (iv) above) shall give notice (by telephone confirmed
promptly in writing) to the respective Borrower or Borrowers and (except in the
case of clause (i)) to the Agent of such determination (which notice the Agent
shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter (w) in the
case of clause (i) above, Eurodollar Loans shall no longer be available until
such time as the Agent notifies Workflow and the Lenders that the circumstances
giving rise to such notice by the Agent no longer exist, and any Notice of
Borrowing or Notice of Conversion given by Workflow with respect to Eurodollar
Loans which have not yet been incurred shall be deemed rescinded by Workflow,
(x) in the case of clause (ii) above, the respective Borrower or Borrowers agree
to pay to such Lender, upon written demand therefor (accompanied by the written
notice referred to below), such additional amounts (in the form of an increased
rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such
Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as shall be required to
compensate such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amounts
received or receivable hereunder (a written notice as to the additional amounts
owed to such Lender, showing in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation
thereof, submitted to such Borrower or Borrowers by such Lender shall, absent
;manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto),
(y) in the case of clause (iii) above, the respective Borrower or Borrowers
shall take one of the actions specified in Section 1.11(b) as promptly as
possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law and (z) in
the case of clause (iv) above, Canadian Revolving Loans (exclusive of Canadian
Revolving Loans which have theretofore been funded) shall no longer be available
until such time as the Canadian Co-Agent notifies the Agent, DBF and the Lenders
that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Canadian Co-Agent no
longer exist, and any Notice of Borrowing given by DBF with respect to such
Canadian Revolving Loans which have not been incurred shall be deemed rescinded
by DBF.
(b) At any time that any Eurodollar Loan or Competitive Bid Loan is
affected by the circumstances described in Section 1.11(a)(ii) or (iii), the
respective Borrower may (and in the case of a Eurodollar Loan or Competitive Bid
Loan affected pursuant to Section 1.11(a)(iii) the respective Borrower shall)
either (i) if the affected Eurodollar Loan or Competitive Bid Loan is then being
made pursuant to a Borrowing, cancel said Borrowing by giving the Agent
telephonic notice (confirmed promptly in writing) thereof on the same date that
such Borrower was notified by a Lender pursuant to Section 1.11(a)(ii) or
(iii)), or (ii) if the affected Eurodollar Loan or Competitive Bid Loan is then
outstanding, upon at least three Business Days' notice to the Agent, (A) in the
case of a Eurodollar Loan, require the affected Lender to convert each such
Eurodollar Loan into a Base Rate Loan (which conversion, in the case of the
circumstances described in Section 1.11(a)(iii), shall occur no later than the
last day of the Interest Period then applicable to such Eurodollar Loan (or such
earlier date as shall be required by applicable law)) and (B) in the case of a
Competitive Bid Loan, repay such Competitive Bid Loan in full; provided, that if
--------
more than one Lender is affected at any time as described above in this clause
(b), then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section
1.11(b).
(c) If any Lender shall have determined that after the date hereof,
the adoption, introduction or effectiveness of any applicable law, rule or
regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in
the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental
15
authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or
administration thereof, or compliance by such Lender with any request or
directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of
any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the
effect of increasing the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained
by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender based on the existence
of such Lender's Revolving Commitment, Loans outstanding or obligation
hereunder, then from time to time, upon written demand by such Lender (with a
copy to the Agent), the Borrowers jointly and severally shall pay to such Lender
such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender or such
other corporation for the increased cost to such Lender or such other
corporation or the reduction in the rate of return to such Lender or such other
corporation as a result of such increase of capital. In determining such
additional amounts, each Lender will act reasonably and in good faith and will
use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable, provided that such
--------
Lender's determination of compensation owing under this Section 1.11(c) shall,
absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties
hereto. Each Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts will be
payable pursuant to this Section 1.11(c), will give prompt written notice
thereof to the Borrowers, which notice shall show in reasonable detail the basis
for calculation of such additional amounts, although the failure to give any
such notice shall not release or diminish the Borrowers' obligations to pay
additional amounts pursuant to this Section 1.11(c) upon the subsequent receipt
of such notice.
1.12 Compensation. The respective Borrower or Borrowers agree to
------------
compensate each Lender, upon its written request (which request shall set forth
in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such compensation), for all
reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any
loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment
of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its Eurodollar Loans
or Competitive Bid Loans but excluding loss of anticipated profit with respect
to any Loans) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than
a default by such Lender or the Agent) a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans or
Competitive Bid Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of
Borrowing, Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing or Notice of Conversion (whether
or not withdrawn or deemed withdrawn pursuant to Section 1.11(a) or (b)); (ii)
if any repayment (including any repayment made pursuant to Section 4.01 or 4.02
or as a result of an acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 9) or
conversion of any Eurodollar Loans occurs on a date which is not the last day of
an Interest Period applicable thereto; (iii) if any repayment (including any
repayment made pursuant to Section 4.01 or 4.02 or as a result of an
acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 9) of any Competitive Bid Loans or
Bankers' Acceptance Loans occurs on a date which is not the maturity date of the
respective Competitive Bid Loans or Bankers' Acceptance, as the case may be;
(iv) if any prepayment of any Eurodollar Loans, Competitive Bid Loans or
Bankers' Acceptance Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of
prepayment given by the respective Borrower or Borrowers; or (v) as a
consequence of (x) any other default by the Borrower or Borrowers to repay its
Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement or (y) an election made
pursuant to Section 1.11(b).
1.13 Lending Offices; Changes Thereto.
--------------------------------
(a) Each Lender may at any time or from time to time designate, by
written notice to the Agent (and, with respect to the Canadian Loans, to the
Canadian Co-Agent) to the extent not already reflected on Annex II, one or more
lending offices (which, for this purpose, may include Affiliates of the
respective Lender) for the various Loans made, and Letters of Credit
participated in, by such Lender (including by designating a separate lending
office (or Affiliate) to
16
act as such with respect to Dollar Loans and Letter of Credit Outstandings
versus Canadian Loans); provided that, for designations made after the Effective
Date, to the extent such designation shall result in increased costs under
Section 1.11, 2.05 or 4.04 in excess of those which would be charged in the
absence of the designation of a different lending office (including a different
Affiliate of the respective Lender), then the Borrowers shall not be obligated
to pay such excess increased costs (although the Borrowers, in accordance with
and pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement, shall be obligated to
pay the costs which would apply in the absence of such designation and any
subsequent increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes
after the date of the respective designation). Each lending office and Affiliate
of any Lender designated as provided above shall, for all purposes of this
Agreement, be treated in the same manner as the respective Lender (and shall be
entitled to all indemnities and similar provisions in respect of its acting as
such hereunder).
(b) Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving
rise to the operation of Section 1.11(a)(ii) or (iii), 1.11(c), 2.05 or 4.04
with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the applicable Borrower,
use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender)
to designate another lending office for any Loans or Letters of Credit affected
by such event; provided, that such designation is made on such terms that, in
the sole judgment of such Lender, such Lender and its lending office suffer no
economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the
consequences of the event giving rise to the operation of any such Section.
Nothing in this Section 1.13 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of
any Borrower or the right of any Lender provided in Section 1.11, 2.05 or 4.04.
1.14 Replacement of Lenders.
----------------------
(a) (i) If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or otherwise
defaults in its obligations to make Loans or fund Unpaid Drawings, (ii) if any
Lender refuses to consent to certain proposed changes, waivers, discharges or
terminations with respect to this Agreement which have been approved by the
Required Lenders as (and to the extent) provided in Section 12.12(b) or (iii)
upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section
1.11(a)(ii) or (iii), Section 1.11(c), Section 2.05 or Section 4.04 with respect
to any Lender which results in such Lender charging to any Borrower increased
costs in excess of those being generally charged by the other Lenders, the
Borrowers shall have the right, in accordance with the requirements of Section
12.04(b), if no Event of Default will exist after giving effect to such
replacement, to replace such Lender (the "Replaced Lender") with an Eligible
Transferee or Transferees, none of which shall constitute a Defaulting Lender at
the time of such replacement (collectively, the "Replacement Lender"), and each
of whom shall be reasonably acceptable to the Agent and the Letter of Credit
Issuer and, if the Replacement Lender is a Canadian Lender, the Canadian Co-
Agent, provided that (A) at the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section
1.14, the Replacement Lender shall enter into one or more Assignment and
Assumption Agreements pursuant to Section 12.04(b) (and with the assignment fee
payable pursuant to said Section 12.04(b) to be paid by the Replacement Lender)
pursuant to which the Replacement Lender shall acquire the entire Revolving
Commitment (including any Canadian Sub-Commitment), Dollar Term Loan Commitment
and all outstanding Loans of, and in each case participations in Swingline Loans
and Letters of Credit by, the Replaced Lender and, in connection therewith,
shall pay (x) to the Replaced Lender in respect thereof an amount (in the
respective currencies in which such Obligations are denominated) equal to the
sum of (I) an amount equal to the principal of (including, without limitation,
the Face Amount of Bankers' Acceptance Loans), and all accrued interest on, all
outstanding Loans of the Replaced Lender, (II) an amount equal to all Unpaid
Drawings that have been funded by (and not reimbursed to) such Replaced Lender,
together with all
17
then unpaid interest with respect thereto at such time and (III) an amount equal
to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid, Fees owing to the Replaced Lender
pursuant to Section 3.01, (y) to the Letter of Credit Issuer an amount equal to
such Replaced Lender's Dollar Percentage of any Unpaid Drawing (which at such
time remains an Unpaid Drawing) to the extent such amount was not theretofore
funded by such Replaced Lender and (z) to Fleet an amount equal to such Replaced
Lender's Dollar Percentage of any Mandatory Borrowing to the extent such amount
was not theretofore funded by such Replaced Lender and (B) all obligations of
the Borrowers owing to the Replaced Lender (other than those specifically
described in clause (A) above in respect of which the assignment purchase price
has been, or is concurrently being, paid) shall be paid in full to such Replaced
Lender concurrently with such replacement.
(b) Upon the execution of the respective Assignment and Assumption
Agreements, the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (A) and (B) of Section
1.14(a) and, if so requested by the Replacement Lender, delivery to the
Replacement Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the respective
Borrowers, the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the
Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder, except with
respect to indemnification provisions applicable to the Replaced Lender under
this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 1.11, 1.12, 2.05, 4.04,
12.01 and 12.06), which shall survive as to such Replaced Lender.
1.15 Bankers' Acceptance Provisions. The parties hereto agree that the
------------------------------
provisions of Annex III shall apply to all Bankers' Acceptances and Bankers'
Acceptance Loans created hereunder, and that the provisions of Annex III shall
be deemed incorporated by reference into this Agreement as if such provisions
were set forth in their entirety herein.
1.16 Certain Override Provisions Regarding Utilizations of the Total
---------------------------------------------------------------
Canadian Sub-Commitment.
-----------------------
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, the parties hereto agree that (i) the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment
shall be fixed on a quarterly basis at the end of each calendar quarter during
the Canadian Revolver Period in accordance with this Section 1.16, (ii) in no
event shall the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment exceed the least of (w)
$50,000,000, (x) the sum of the Canadian Sub-Commitments of the various Canadian
Lenders as then in effect (after giving effect to any reductions to such
Canadian Sub-Commitments from time to time, including pursuant to Sections 3.02,
3.03, 4.02(e) and/or 9), or (y) the Total Revolving Commitment then in effect,
(iii) in no event shall the Canadian Sub-Commitment for any Canadian Lender
exceed the amount set forth opposite such Canadian Lender's name in Annex I-B
directly below the column entitled "Canadian Sub-Commitment," as the same may be
reduced from time to time pursuant to Sections 3.02, 3.03, 4.02(e) and/or 9 or
as the same may be further adjusted from time to time as a result of assignments
to or from such Lender pursuant to Section 1.14 or 12.04(b), (iv) at no time
shall Workflow be permitted to request an extension of credit pursuant to the
Total Revolving Commitment (whether in the form of Revolving Loans, Swingline
Loans, Competitive Bid Loans or Letter of Credit Outstandings) and no such
credit shall be made available if, after giving effect thereto, the sum of the
aggregate principal amount of outstanding Revolving Loans (excluding for this
purpose Canadian Revolving Loans), Swingline Loans and Competitive Bid Loans and
the amount of Letter of Credit Outstandings at such time would exceed an amount
equal to the Total Revolving Commitment as then in effect less the Total
Canadian Sub-Commitment as then in effect, (v) at no time shall DBF be permitted
to request an extension of credit in the form of Canadian Revolving Loans if,
after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal (and Face Xxxxxx,
00
as applicable) of outstanding Canadian Revolving Loans (for this purpose, using
the Dollar Equivalent of the principal and/or Face Amount, as appropriate, of
Canadian Revolving Loans) would at any time exceed the Total Canadian Sub-
Commitment; and (vi) the Canadian Sub-Commitment for any Canadian Lender at any
time shall be an amount equal to its pro rata share of the Total Canadian Sub-
Commitment at such time determined on the basis of the Canadian Percentages of
the various Canadian Lenders. At all times from and after the date of this
Agreement until the Canadian Effective Date and an adjustment is made in
accordance with this Section 1.16, the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment shall be
$0.
(b) Workflow, not more than 30 days and not less than 5 Business Days
prior to the last day of each calendar quarter ending during the Canadian
Revolver Period, shall, and at any time prior to the Canadian Syndication Date,
may give written notice to the Agent and the Canadian Co-Agent either (x)
requesting an adjustment (subject to the limitations set forth in clause (a) of
this Section 1.16) effective as of the first Business Day of the immediately
following calendar quarter (each such date an "Adjustment Date") to the amount
of the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment; or (y) confirming that there will be no
adjustments to the amount available under the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment,
provided that (i) no reduction to the amount of the Total Canadian Sub-
--------
Commitment on any Adjustment Date may be made if, after giving effect to any
such reduction, the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment would be less than the sum of
the aggregate Face Amount of all Bankers' Acceptance Loans and the principal
amount of all Canadian Prime Rate Loans (for this purpose, using the Dollar
Equivalent of the Face Amounts or principal amounts thereof) then outstanding
(other than any such Canadian Revolving Loans which will be repaid in full on or
before the respective Adjustment Date), (ii) the failure by Workflow to deliver
any such written notice (or the delivery by Workflow of any such notice which
does not comply with the requirements contained in this Section) to the Agent
and the Canadian Co-Agent within the period required above will be deemed to be
delivery by Workflow to the Agent and the Canadian Co-Agent of a written notice
that there will be no adjustment to the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment, (iii) if
Workflow requests any increase in the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment pursuant to
this Section 1.16(b), such an adjustment shall be made only if one or more
Lenders agree to increase their Canadian Sub-Commitments by an aggregate amount
equal to such increase in the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment and one or more
Lenders agree to decrease their Dollar Revolving Sub-Commitments by an amount
equal to the corresponding decrease in the Total Dollar Revolving Sub-Commitment
and (iv) if Workflow requests any decrease in the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment
pursuant to this Section 1.16(b), such an adjustment shall be made only if one
or more Lenders agree to decrease their Canadian Sub-Commitments by an aggregate
amount equal to such decrease in the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment and one or
more Lenders agree to increase their Dollar Revolving Sub-Commitments by an
amount equal to the corresponding increase in the Total Dollar Revolving Sub-
Commitment. If any adjustment is made on an Adjustment Date as described in
this Section, then (a) on the respective Adjustment Date all repayments required
by this Section and Section 4.02(a) shall be made on such date to the extent
required as a result of such adjustments and in manner provided in Section 4.02
and (b) Annex I-B shall be automatically amended to reflect such adjustments.
(c) In connection with any loans and/or repayments made as a result
of adjustments to the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment and the Canadian Sub-
Commitment for any Canadian Lender as requested above, then, so long as
arrangements satisfactory to the Agent and Canadian Co-Agent are made for the
repayment of all amounts which will be due on the respective Adjustment Date as
a result thereof, loans shall be permitted to be requested by the Borrowers as a
result of any change in the amount of the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment on such
date (subject to satisfaction of the other terms and conditions of this
Agreement) so long as arrangements satisfactory
19
to the Agent and the Canadian Co-Agent are made so that, by the time required by
Section 4.03, all payments will be made by the Borrowers on such Adjustment Date
as a result of any change in the amount of the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment, on
such date. It is understood and agreed that neither the Agent nor the Canadian
Co-Agent shall have any liability to any Lenders if the payments contemplated
above in this Section are not actually made on the Adjustment Date, and that any
failure to make the payments required to be made on an Adjustment Date pursuant
to this Section or Section 4.02(a) shall constitute an Event of Default in
accordance with the terms of Section 9.01.
(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Credit Agreement to the
contrary, if any increase to the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment pursuant to this
Section 1.16 is made on or prior to the Canadian Syndication Date, such increase
in the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment (the amount of such increase referred to
herein as the "Adjustment Amount") and the corresponding decrease in the Total
Dollar Revolving Sub-Commitment by the Adjustment Amount shall, unless the Agent
otherwise consents, occur by reducing Fleet's Dollar Revolving Sub-Commitment
and increasing Fleet's or its assignee's Canadian Sub-Commitment by an amount
equal to the Adjustment Amount. Each Lender's Dollar Percentage and Canadian
Percentage shall be automatically adjusted and Annex I shall be automatically
amended to reflect such adjustments to Fleet's Dollar Revolving Sub-Commitment
and Canadian Sub-Commitment.
1.17 Term Out of Canadian Revolving Loans.
------------------------------------
(a) Unless terminated earlier pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement, DBF may request Canadian Revolving Loans during the Canadian Revolver
Period after the Canadian Effective Date. On the Canadian Term Out Date, no
Lender shall have any further commitment to make Canadian Revolving Loans to
DBF, and the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Canadian Revolving
Loans shall convert into the Canadian Term Loan in accordance with this Section
1.17. The "Canadian Term Out Date" shall initially be 364 days after the
Effective Date and may be extended from time to time as set forth below. DBF
may request in writing from the Canadian Lenders and the Canadian Co-Agent, no
later than ninety (90) days prior to the Canadian Term Out Date then in effect,
a 364-day extension of the Canadian Revolver Period (the date of such request,
the "Extension Request Date"), provided that the Canadian Revolver Period shall
--------
in no event extend beyond the Final Maturity Date. If all of the Canadian
Lenders and the Canadian Co-Agent approve, in their sole discretion, such
request in writing (the Canadian Lenders and the Canadian Co-Agent agreeing to
inform DBF of such approval or refusal to approve no later than sixty (60) days
after the Extension Request Date (the date of such response, the "Response
Date")), then the Canadian Term Out Date shall be deemed to be 364 days after
the Canadian Term Out Date then in effect or such other date as the Canadian
Lenders may agree. A consent, if any, to the extension of the Canadian Revolver
Period shall be given by the Canadian Lenders and the Canadian Co-Agent no later
than sixty (60) days after the Extension Request Date, provided that if any
--------
Canadian Lender or the Canadian Co-Agent does not respond to DBF's request on or
prior to sixty (60) days after the Extension Request Date, such Person shall be
deemed to have refused such request to extend the Canadian Revolver Period.
(b) Upon the occurrence of the Canadian Term Out Date, subject to
the terms and conditions contained herein, an amount equal to the sum of the
aggregate amount of Canadian Revolving Loans outstanding on such date (the
"Canadian Loan Amount") shall automatically convert into the Canadian Term
Loans, provided that the Canadian Borrower shall, prior to the Canadian Term Out
--------
Date, repay the Canadian Revolver Loans such that immediately after the
20
conversion of the Canadian Revolver Loans into the Canadian Term Loan the Dollar
Equivalent of the principal amount (or Face Amount, as the case may be) of the
Canadian Term Loan at such time shall represent no more than 20% of the Dollar
Equivalent of the principal amount (or Face Amount, as the case may be) of all
Loans and Letters of Credit outstanding at such time. After the Canadian Term
Out Date, (i) the Bankers' Acceptance Loans shall remain outstanding and such
Bankers' Acceptance Loans shall be renewable by DBF during the Canadian Term Out
Period as provided in Annex III, and (ii) the obligations in respect of the
Bankers' Acceptance Loans shall be deemed to be a portion of the Canadian Term
Loans for all purposes hereof. The portion of the Canadian Term Loans owed to
each Canadian Lender on the Canadian Term Out Date shall be determined in
accordance with the Canadian Lenders' Canadian Percentages immediately prior to
the conversion of the Canadian Revolving Loans to the Canadian Term Loan.
SECTION 2. Letters of Credit.
-----------------
2.01 Letters of Credit.
-----------------
(a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein,
Workflow may request the Letter of Credit Issuer at any time and from time to
time on or after the Effective Date and prior to the 30th day prior to the Final
Maturity Date to issue, for the account of Workflow and in support of (x) trade
obligations and other obligations of Workflow or any of its Subsidiaries
incurred in the ordinary course of business and (y) such other obligations of
Workflow or any of its Subsidiaries to any other Person that are reasonably
acceptable to the Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer, and subject to and upon
the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Letter of Credit Issuer agrees to

approved by the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Agent (each such letter of
credit, a "Letter of Credit" and, collectively, the "Letters of Credit").
(b) The Letter of Credit Issuer hereby agrees that it will (subject
to the terms and conditions contained herein), at any time and from time to time
on and after the Effective Date and prior to the 30th day prior to the Final
Maturity Date, following its receipt of the respective Letter of Credit Request,
issue for the account of Workflow, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, one or more Letters of Credit, provided that the Letter of Credit
--------
Issuer shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if at the time
of such issuance:
(i) any order, judgment or decree of any governmental authority
or arbitrator shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain the Letter
of Credit Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit or any requirement of
law applicable to the Letter of Credit Issuer or any request or directive
(whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority
with jurisdiction over the Letter of Credit Issuer shall prohibit, or
request that the Letter of Credit Issuer refrain from, the issuance of
letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall
impose upon the Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to such Letter of
Credit any restriction or reserve or capital requirement (for which the
Letter of Credit Issuer is not otherwise compensated) not in effect on the
date hereof, or any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not
applicable, in effect or known to the Letter of Credit Issuer as of the
date hereof and which the Letter of Credit Issuer reasonably and in good
xxxxx xxxxx material to it; or
21
(ii) the Letter of Credit Issuer shall have received notice from
Workflow, any other Credit Party or the Required Lenders prior to the
issuance of such Letter of Credit of the type described in clause (v) of
Section 2.01(c).
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no Letter of Credit (other
than the OEI Letters of Credit) shall be issued the Stated Amount of which, when
added to the Non-OEI Letter of Credit Outstandings at such time, would exceed
$5,000,000, (ii) the OEI Letter of Credit Outstandings shall at no time exceed
$10,500,000, (iii) no Letter of Credit shall be issued if, after giving effect
thereto, the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Total
Revolving Commitment at such time, (iv) each Letter of Credit shall have an
expiry date occurring not later than the earlier of (x) one year (or 180 days in
the case of a trade Letter of Credit) after such Letter of Credit's date of
issuance, provided that any standby Letter of Credit may be automatically
extendible for periods of up to one year so long as such standby Letter of
Credit provides that the Letter of Credit Issuer retains an option, satisfactory
to the Letter of Credit Issuer, to terminate such standby Letter of Credit
within a specified period of time prior to each scheduled extension date and (y)
the fifth Business Day (or the 30th day in the case of trade Letters of Credit)
prior to the Final Maturity Date, (v) each Letter of Credit shall be denominated
in Dollars and issued on a sight basis, and (vi) the Letter of Credit Issuer
will not issue any Letter of Credit after it has received written notice from
Workflow, any other Credit Party or the Required Lenders stating that a Default
or an Event of Default exists until such time as the Letter of Credit Issuer
shall have received a written notice of (x) rescission of such notice from the
party or parties originally delivering same or (y) a waiver of such Default or
Event of Default by the Required Lenders.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a Lender Default
exists, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not be required to issue any Letter of
Credit unless the Letter of Credit Issuer has entered into arrangements
satisfactory to it and Workflow to eliminate the Letter of Credit Issuer's risk
with respect to the participation in Letters of Credit of any Defaulting Lender
or Lenders, including by cash collateralizing any such Defaulting Lender's or
Lenders' Percentage of the Letter of Credit Outstandings.
2.02 Letter of Credit Requests; Notices of Issuance.
----------------------------------------------
(a) Whenever Workflow desires that a Letter of Credit be issued,
Workflow shall give the Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer written notice
thereof prior to 11:00 A.M. (New York time) at least five Business Days (or such
shorter period as may be acceptable to the Letter of Credit Issuer) prior to the
proposed date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day), which notice shall be
in the form of Exhibit A-2 appropriately completed (each a "Letter of Credit
Request"). Each Letter of Credit Request shall include any other documents as
the Letter of Credit Issuer customarily requires in connection therewith.
(b) The making of each Letter of Credit Request shall be deemed to be
a representation and warranty by Workflow that (i) such Letter of Credit may be
issued in accordance with, and will not violate the requirements of, Section
2.01(c) and (ii) all of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 5 shall
be met at the time of such issuance. Unless the Letter of Credit Issuer has
received notice from Workflow, any other Credit Party or the Required Lenders
before it issues a Letter of Credit that one or more of the conditions specified
in Section 5 are not then satisfied, or that the issuance of such Letter of
Credit would violate Section 2.01(c), then the Letter of Credit Issuer may issue
the requested Letter of Credit for the account of Workflow in accordance with
the Letter of Credit Issuer's usual and customary practices.
22
(c) The Letter of Credit Issuer shall, promptly upon its issuance of
a Letter of Credit, give the Agent and Workflow written notice thereof, in each
case accompanied by a copy to the Agent of the Letter of Credit or Letters of
Credit issued by the Letter of Credit Issuer.
2.03 Agreement to Repay Letter of Credit Drawings.
--------------------------------------------
(a) Workflow hereby agrees to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer,
by making payment to the Agent in Dollars and in immediately available funds at
the appropriate Payment Office, for any payment or disbursement made by the
Letter of Credit Issuer under any Letter of Credit (each such amount so paid or
disbursed until reimbursed, an "Unpaid Drawing") promptly upon but no later than
one Business Day after the Letter of Credit Issuer notifies Workflow that such
payment or disbursement has occurred (provided that no such notice shall be
required to be given if a Default or an Event of Default under Section 9.05
shall have occurred and be continuing, in which case the Unpaid Drawing shall be
due and payable immediately without presentment, demand, protest or notice of
any kind (all of which are hereby waived by Workflow)), with interest on the
amount so paid or disbursed by the Letter of Credit Issuer, to the extent not
reimbursed prior to 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the date of such payment or
disbursement, from and including the date paid or disbursed to but not including
the date the Letter of Credit Issuer is reimbursed therefor at a rate per annum
which shall be the Applicable Base Rate Margin plus the Base Rate, each as in
effect from time to time (plus an additional 2% per annum if not reimbursed by
the third Business Day after the date of such notice of such payment or
disbursement or following the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default
under Section 9.05), with such interest to be payable on demand.
(b) Workflow's obligation under this Section 2.03 to reimburse the
Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to Unpaid Drawings (including, in each
case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all
circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment
which Workflow or any of its Subsidiaries may have or have had against the
Letter of Credit Issuer, the Agent, any Lender, the beneficiary of any Letter of
Credit or any other Person, including, without limitation, any defense based
upon the failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit to conform to the terms
of the Letter of Credit or any non-application or misapplication by the
beneficiary of the proceeds of such drawing, provided that Workflow shall not be
obligated to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer for any wrongful payment made
by the Letter of Credit Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or
omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of the
Letter of Credit Issuer (as finally determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction).
2.04 Letter of Credit Participations.
-------------------------------
(a) Immediately upon the issuance by the Letter of Credit Issuer of
any Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be deemed to have sold
and transferred to each other Revolver Lender, and each such Revolver Lender
(each a "Participant") shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have
purchased and received from the Letter of Credit Issuer, without recourse or
warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such
Revolver Lender's Dollar Percentage, in such Letter of Credit, each substitute
letter of credit, each drawing made thereunder and the obligations of Workflow
under this Agreement with respect thereto (although Letter of Credit Fees shall
be payable directly to the Agent for the account of the Revolver Lenders as
provided in Section 3.01(b) and the Participants shall have no right to receive
any portion of any Facing Fees) and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining
thereto. Upon any change in the
23
Revolving Commitments or Dollar Percentages of the Revolver Lenders pursuant to
this Agreement (or in the circumstances provided in the proviso to the
immediately preceding sentence, upon any change in the Percentages of the
Revolver Lenders pursuant to this Agreement), it is hereby agreed that, with
respect to all outstanding Letters of Credit and Unpaid Drawings, there shall be
an automatic adjustment to the participations pursuant to this Section 2.04 to
reflect the new Dollar Percentages or, in the circumstances described in the
proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, the new Percentages of the
various Revolver Lenders.
(b) In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, the
Letter of Credit Issuer shall not have any obligation relative to the
Participants other than to determine that any documents required to be delivered
under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they appear to
substantially comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of
Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Letter of Credit Issuer
under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the
absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as finally determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction), shall not create for the Letter of Credit
Issuer any resulting liability to any Person.
(c) In the event that the Letter of Credit Issuer makes any payment
under any Letter of Credit and Workflow shall not have reimbursed such amount in
full to the Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(a), the Letter of
Credit Issuer shall promptly notify the Agent, and the Agent shall promptly
notify each Participant of such failure, and each Participant shall promptly and
unconditionally pay to the Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer,
the amount of such Participant's Dollar Percentage of such payment in Dollars
and in same day funds, provided that no Participant shall be obligated to pay to
the Agent its Dollar Percentage of such unreimbursed amount for any wrongful
payment made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result
of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the
part of the Letter of Credit Issuer (as finally determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction). If the Agent so notifies any Participant required to
fund a payment under a Letter of Credit prior to 11:00 A.M. (New York time) on
any Business Day, such Participant shall make available to the Agent for the
account of the Letter of Credit Issuer such Participant's Dollar Percentage of
the amount of such payment on such Business Day in Dollars and in same day
funds. If and to the extent such Participant shall not have so made its Dollar
Percentage of the amount of such payment available to the Agent for the account
of the Letter of Credit Issuer, such Participant agrees to pay to the Agent for
the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, forthwith on demand such amount,
together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such
amount is paid to the Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer at
the Federal Funds Effective Rate. The failure of any Participant to make
available to the Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer its Dollar
Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other
Participant of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Agent for the
account of the Letter of Credit Issuer its Dollar Percentage of any payment
under any Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no
Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other Participant to
make available to the Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer such
other Participant's Dollar Percentage of any such payment.
(d) Whenever the Letter of Credit Issuer receives a payment of a
reimbursement obligation as to which the Agent has received for the account of
the Letter of Credit Issuer any payments from the Participants pursuant to
clause (c) above, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall pay to the Agent and the
Agent shall promptly pay to each Participant which has paid its Dollar
Percentage thereof, in Dollars and in same day funds, an amount equal to such
Participant's Dollar Percentage of
24
the principal amount thereof and interest thereon accruing after the actual
funding of the respective participations.
(e) The obligations of the Participants to make payments to the Agent
for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to Letters of Credit
shall be irrevocable and not subject to counterclaim, set-off or other defense
or any other qualification or exception whatsoever (except as otherwise
expressly provided in the proviso to the first sentence in Section 2.04(c)) and
shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement
under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following
circumstances:
(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or
any of the other Credit Documents;
(ii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right
which Workflow or any of its Subsidiaries may have at any time against a
beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of
Credit, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this
Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or
any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between
Workflow or any such Subsidiary and the beneficiary named in any such
Letter of Credit);
(iii) any draft, certificate or other document presented under
the Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or
insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or
inaccurate in any respect;
(iv) the surrender or impairment of any security for the
performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Credit
Documents; or
(v) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default.
2.05 Increased Costs. If at any time after the date hereof, the adoption,
---------------
introduction or effectiveness of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any
change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by
any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Letter of Credit
Issuer or any Participant with any request or directive (whether or not having
the force of law) by any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall
either (i) impose, modify or make applicable any reserve, deposit, capital
adequacy or similar requirement against Letters of Credit issued by the Letter
of Credit Issuer or such Participant's participation therein, or (ii) impose on
the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Participant any other conditions affecting
this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or such Participant's participation
therein; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the
Letter of Credit Issuer or such Participant of issuing, maintaining or
participating in any Letter of Credit, or to reduce the amount of any sum
received or receivable by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Participant
hereunder or reduce the rate of return on its capital with respect to Letters of
Credit, then, upon written demand to Workflow by the Letter of Credit Issuer or
such Participant (a copy of which demand shall be sent by the Letter of Credit
Issuer or such Participant to the Agent), Workflow shall pay to the Letter of
Credit Issuer or such Participant such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Participant for such increased
cost or reduction. A certificate submitted to Workflow by the Letter of Credit
Issuer or such Participant, as the case may be (a copy of which certificate
shall be sent by the Letter of Credit
25
Issuer or such Participant to the Agent), setting forth the basis for the
determination of such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate the
Letter of Credit Issuer or such Participant as aforesaid shall be final and
conclusive and binding on Workflow absent manifest error, although the failure
to deliver any such certificate shall not release or diminish Workflow's
obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.05 upon
subsequent receipt of such certificate.
SECTION 3. Fees; Adjustments of Commitments.
--------------------------------
3.01 Fees.
----
(a) (i) Workflow agrees to pay to the Agent for distribution to each
Non-Defaulting Lender that is a Revolver Lender a facility fee (the "Facility
Fee") for the period from the Effective Date to but not including the date the
Total Revolving Commitment has been terminated, computed for each day at a rate
per annum equal to the Applicable Facility Fee Percentage (as in effect from
time to time) on the full amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Lender.
Accrued Facility Fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last
Business Day of each April, July, October and January of each year and the date

Credit (the "Letter of Credit Fee") for the period from and including the date
of issuance of such Letter of Credit to and including the date of termination or
expiration of such Letter of Credit, computed for each day at a rate per annum

Letter of Credit Fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last
Business Day of each April, July, October and January of each year and on the
first day on or after the termination of the Total Revolving Commitment upon
which no Letters of Credit remain outstanding.
(c) Workflow agrees to pay directly to the Letter of Credit Issuer
for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer a fee in respect of each Letter
of Credit (the "Facing Fee") for the period from and including the date of
issuance of such Letter of Credit to and including the date of termination or
expiration of such Letter of Credit, computed for each day at a rate per annum
equal to 1/4 of 1% on the daily average Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit,
provided that in no event shall the annual Facing Fee with respect to any Letter
of Credit be less than $500. Accrued Facing Fees shall be due and payable

customarily charging for issuances of, payments under or amendments of
comparable letters of credit issued by it.
(e) At the time of the incurrence of each Bankers' Acceptance Loan,
Acceptance Fees shall be paid by the Borrowers as required by, and in accordance
with, clause (g) of Annex III.
26
(f) Each Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent, for its own account,
such other fees as have been agreed to in writing from time to time by such
Borrower and the Agent.
(g) All computations of Fees shall be made in accordance with Section
12.07(b).
3.02 Voluntary Reduction of Revolving Commitments.
--------------------------------------------
(a) Upon at least three Business Days' prior written notice to the
Agent at the Notice Office and the Canadian Co-Agent at the Canadian Notice
Office (which notice the Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders),
Workflow shall have the right, without premium or penalty, to terminate or
partially reduce the Unutilized Total Revolving Commitment, provided that any
--------
partial reduction pursuant to this Section 3.02(a) shall be in the amount of at
least $5,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Each
reduction to the Unutilized Total Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section
3.02(a) shall apply to reduce permanently the Revolving Commitments of the
various Lenders pro rata based on their respective Percentages. At the time of
--------
each reduction to the Revolving Commitment of any Lender pursuant to this
Section 3.02(a), Workflow shall specify the amount of such reduction to apply to
the Canadian Sub-Commitment of such Lender and to the Dollar Revolving Sub-
Commitment of such Lender (the sum of which must equal the reduction to the
Revolving Commitment of such Lender); provided that all Lenders with Canadian
Sub-Commitments shall be treated in a consistent fashion (i.e., with no
----
reductions, or with proportionate reductions, to their respective Canadian Sub-
Commitments) at the time of any reduction to the Unutilized Total Revolving
Commitment pursuant to this Section 3.02(a). In the absence of a designation by
Workflow pursuant to this Section 3.02, the amount of any reduction to the
Revolving Commitment of any Lender pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall apply (i)
first, to reduce the Dollar Revolving Sub-Commitment of the respective Lender
and (ii) second, to the extent in excess thereof, to reduce the Canadian Sub-
Commitment of such Lender in each case on a pro rata basis.
--------
(b) On any date Workflow may, at its option, permanently reduce or
terminate the Canadian Sub-Commitments by written notice to the Canadian Co-
Agent and the Agent to such effect (specifying the aggregate amount of
reductions to the Canadian Sub-Commitments); provided that (i) no such reduction
shall be made in an amount which would cause the Dollar Equivalent of the then
outstanding aggregate principal amount or Face Amount, as the case may be, of
the Canadian Loans to exceed the Canadian Sub-Commitments of the Canadian
Lenders after giving effect to the respective reduction pursuant to this clause
(b), (ii) each reduction pursuant to this clause (b) shall apply pro rata to
reduce the Canadian Sub-Commitments of the various Canadian Lenders (based upon
the relative amounts of such Canadian Sub-Commitments) and (iii) except to the
extent the reduction to the Canadian Sub-Commitments pursuant to this Section
3.02(b) is accompanied by a like reduction to the amount of the Total Revolving
Commitment pursuant to Section 3.02(a), the amount of each Lender's reduction to
its Canadian Sub-Commitment pursuant to this clause (b) shall result in a like
increase to its Dollar Revolving Sub-Commitment.

shall be treated in a consistent fashion (i.e., with proportionate reductions to
their respective Dollar Revolving Sub-Commitments) at the time of any reduction
to the Total Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section 3.03. Each prepayment
of the Dollar Term Loans or Canadian Term Loans pursuant to this Section 3.03
shall apply proportionally to the Dollar Term Loans and Canadian Term Loans of
each Lender in accordance with their Dollar Term Loan Percentages or Canadian
Percentages, as applicable.
SECTION 4. Payments.

4.02 Prepayments of Loans to reflect Revolving Commitments, Canadian Sub-
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Commitments and Sublimits; Scheduled Payments of Term Loans; Etc.
----------------------------------------------------------------
(a) (i) If on any day the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure
exceeds the Total Revolving Commitment as then in effect, Workflow shall prepay
on such day the principal of outstanding Swingline Loans and, after all
Swingline Loans have been prepaid in full or if no Swingline Loans are
outstanding, the Borrowers shall prepay on such day the principal of outstanding
Revolving Loans and Canadian Term Loans (other than Bankers' Acceptance Loans
where the underlying Bankers Acceptances have not yet matured) (allocated
between Dollar Revolving Loans, on the one hand, and Canadian Revolving Loans or
Canadian Term Loans, on the other, as the Borrowers may elect) in an amount (for
this purpose, using the Dollar Equivalent of payments in Canadian Dollars made
with respect to Canadian Loans) equal to such excess. If, after giving effect
to the prepayment of all outstanding Swingline Loans, Revolving Loans and
Canadian Term Loans (other than Bankers' Acceptance Loans as referenced in the
immediately preceding sentence), the sum of the outstanding Bankers' Acceptance
Loans (for this purpose, using the Dollar Equivalent of the Face Amounts
thereof), Competitive Bid Loans and Letter of Credit Outstandings exceeds the
Total Revolving Commitment then in effect, (i) an amount of cash and/or Cash
Equivalents equal to the lesser of such excess and the then outstanding Face
Amount of all Bankers' Acceptances shall be deposited by DBF with the Canadian
Co-Agent as collateral for the obligations of DBF to the Canadian Lenders
(rounded up to the nearest integral multiple of Cdn. $100,000) in respect of an
equivalent Face Amount of outstanding Bankers' Acceptances accepted by the
Canadian Lenders which shall be paid to and applied by the Canadian Lenders, in
satisfaction of the obligations of DBF to the Canadian Lenders in respect of
such Banker's Acceptances, on the maturity date thereof, (ii) to the extent such
excess exceeds the amount applied pursuant to preceding clause (i), cash and/or
Cash Equivalents in an amount equal to such remaining excess or, if less, an
amount equal to the then outstanding principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans
shall be paid by Workflow to the Agent to be held as collateral for the
repayment of such Competitive Bid Loans at maturity and (iii) to the extent such
excess exceeds the amount applied pursuant to preceding clauses (i) and (ii),
Workflow shall pay to the Agent cash and/or Cash Equivalents in an amount equal
to the amount of such excess (less the amount applied pursuant to preceding
clauses (i) and (ii)) (up to a maximum amount equal to the Letter of Credit
Outstandings at such time), such cash and/or Cash Equivalents to be held as
security for all obligations of Workflow hereunder and under the other Credit
31
Documents in a cash collateral account (and invested from time to time in Cash
Equivalents selected by the Agent) to be established by the Agent.
(ii) If on any day the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate
outstanding principal amount (or Face Amount, as the case may be) of Canadian
Loans made to DBF exceeds the lesser of the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment and
the Canadian EBITDA Sublimit as then in effect, DBF agrees to prepay on such day
principal of outstanding Canadian Loans (other than Bankers' Acceptance Loans
where the underlying Bankers' Acceptances have not yet matured) in an amount
equal to such excess over the lesser of the Total Canadian Sub-Commitment and
the Canadian EBITDA Sublimit. If, after giving effect to the prepayment in full
of all such outstanding Canadian Loans other than the Bankers' Acceptance Loans
referenced in the immediately preceding sentence, the aggregate outstanding Face
Amount of Bankers' Acceptance Loans exceeds the lesser of the Total Canadian
Sub-Commitment and the Canadian EBITDA Sublimit as then in effect, DBF agrees to
pay to the Canadian Co-Agent on such day an amount of cash and/or Cash
Equivalents equal to the amount of such excess over the lesser of the Total
Canadian Sub-Commitment and the Canadian EBITDA Sublimit (rounded up to the
nearest integral multiple of Cdn. $100,000), such cash and/or Cash Equivalents
to be held as cash collateral for the obligations of DBF to the Canadian Lenders
in respect of an equivalent Face Amount of outstanding Bankers' Acceptances
accepted by the Canadian Lenders which shall be paid to and applied by the
Canadian Lenders, in satisfaction of the obligations of the Borrowers to the
Canadian Lenders in respect of such Bankers' Acceptances, on the maturity date
thereof.
(iii) If on any day the aggregate outstanding principal amount

respect to such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments

any Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by such Lender.
(b) Each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is
defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for United States federal income tax
purposes (other than a Canadian Lender in its capacity solely as a lender to

interest under this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.04 (unless the respective
Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment or
transfer), on the date of such assignment or transfer to such Lender, (i) two
accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form
4224 or 1001 (or successor forms) certifying to such Lender's entitlement (as of
such date) to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with
respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and under any Note, or (ii)

Code and cannot deliver either Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 or 4224 (or
successor forms) pursuant to clause (i) above, (x) a certificate substantially

Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 (or successor form) certifying to such
Lender's entitlement to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax
with respect to payments of interest to be made under this Agreement and under
any Note. In addition, each Lender (other than a Canadian Lender in its
capacity solely as a lender to DBF) agrees that from time to time after the
Effective Date, when a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the
previous certification obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, it will
deliver to Workflow and the Agent two new accurate and complete original signed
copies of Internal Revenue Service Form 4224 or 1001 (or successor forms), or
Form W-8 (or successor form) and a Section 4.04(b)(ii) Certificate, as the case
may be, and such other forms as may be required in order to confirm or establish
the entitlement of such Lender to a continued exemption from or reduction in
United States withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement and
any Note, or it shall immediately notify Workflow and the Agent of its inability
to deliver any such Form or Certificate in which case such Lender shall not be
required to deliver any such Form or Certificate pursuant to this Section
4.04(b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 4.04(x),
but subject to Section 12.04(b) and the immediately succeeding sentence, (x)
Workflow shall be entitled, to the extent it is required to do so by law, to
deduct or withhold income or similar taxes imposed by the United States (or any
political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) from interest,
Fees or other amounts payable hereunder for the account of any Lender which is
not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of
the Code) for United States federal income tax purposes to the extent that such
Lender has not provided to Workflow United States Internal Revenue Service Forms
that establish a complete exemption from such deduction or withholding and (y)
Workflow shall not be obligated pursuant to Section 4.04(a) hereof to gross-up
payments to be made to a Lender in respect of income or similar taxes imposed by
the United States if (I) such Lender is not a United States person (defined as
provided above) and has not provided to Workflow the Internal Revenue Service
Forms provided for in the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.04(b) or (II)
in the case of a payment, other than interest, to a Lender described in clause
(ii) above, to the extent that ouch Forms do not establish a complete exemption
from withholding of such taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in the preceding sentence or elsewhere in this Section 4.04 and except
as set forth in Section 12.04(b), Workflow agrees to pay any additional amounts
and to indemnify each Lender in the manner set forth in Section 4.04(a) (without
regard to the identity of the jurisdiction requiring the deduction or
withholding) in respect of any Taxes deducted or withheld by it as described in
the immediately preceding sentence as a result of any changes after the
Effective Date in any applicable law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation,
35
guideline or order, or in the interpretation thereof, relating to the deducting
or withholding of such Taxes.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Section 4.04, unless a Lender gives notice to the applicable Borrower that such
Borrower is obligated to pay any amount under this Section 4.04 within one year
after the later of (i) the date such Lender incurs the respective Taxes or (ii)
the date such Lender has actual knowledge of its incurrence of the respective
Taxes, then such Lender shall only be entitled to be compensated for such amount
by such Borrower pursuant to this Section 4.04 to the extent such Taxes are
incurred or suffered on or after the date which occurs one year prior to the
date that such Lender gives notice to such Borrower that such Borrower is
obligated to pay the respective amounts pursuant to this Section 4.04. This

Workflow and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal year or nine month period, as the

case after giving effect to the Transaction and the financing therefor, copies
of which have been furnished to the Lenders prior to the Effective Date, present
fairly in all material respects the pro forma consolidated financial position of
---------
Workflow and its Subsidiaries as of April 24, 1999 and January 22, 2000 and the

(c) After giving effect to the Transaction (but for this purpose
assuming that the Transaction had occurred prior to April 24, 1999, since April

45

Borrower knows of any basis for the assertion against it or any of its
Subsidiaries of any liability or obligation of any nature whatsoever that is not

Effective Date, have been made) and each of the Pledge Agreements are effective
to create, in each case as security for the obligations purported to be secured

applicable statute of limitations. Neither Workflow nor any of its Subsidiaries
will incur any taxes in connection with the Transaction.
46
6.13 Compliance with ERISA.
---------------------
(a) Each Plan (and each related trust, insurance contract or fund) is
in substantial compliance with its terms and with all applicable laws,
including, without limitation, ERISA and the Code; except for the Plans set
forth on Annex X, each Plan (and each related trust, if any) which is intended
to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a determination
letter from the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that it meets the
requirements of Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code; no Reportable Event has
occurred; no Plan which is a multiemployer plan (as defined in Section
4001(a)(3) of ERISA) is insolvent or in reorganization; no Plan has an Unfunded
Current Liability; no Plan which is subject to Section 412 of the Code or

of such sections of the Code or ERISA, or has applied for or received a waiver
of an accumulated funding deficiency or an extension of any amortization period,
within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 303 or 304 of ERISA;
all contributions required to be made with respect to a Plan have been timely
made; neither Workflow nor any Subsidiary of Workflow nor any ERISA Affiliate
has incurred any material liability (including any indirect, contingent or
secondary liability) to or on account of a Plan pursuant to Section 409, 502(1),
502(1), 515, 4062, 4063, 4064, 4069, 4201, 4204 or 4212 of ERISA or Section
401(a)(29), 4971 or 4975 of the Code or expects to incur any such material
liability under any of the foregoing sections with respect to any Plan; no
condition exists which presents a material risk to Workflow or any Subsidiary of
Workflow or any ERISA Affiliate of incurring a material liability to or on
account of a Plan pursuant to the foregoing provisions of ERISA and the Code; no
proceedings have been instituted to terminate or appoint a trustee to administer
any Plan which is subject to Title IV of ERISA; no material action, suit,
proceeding, hearing, audit or investigation with respect to the administration,
operation or the investment of assets of any Plan (other than routine claims for
benefits) is pending, expected or threatened; using actuarial assumptions and
computation methods consistent with Part 1 of subtitle E of Title IV of ERISA,
the aggregate liabilities of Workflow and its Subsidiaries and its ERISA
Affiliates to all Plans which are multiemployer plans (as defined in Section
4001(a)(3) of ERISA) in the event of a complete withdrawal therefrom, as of the
close of the most recent fiscal year of each such Plan ended prior to the date
of the most recent Credit Event, would not exceed $1,000,000; each group health
plan (as defined in Section 607(1) of ERISA or Section 4980B(g)(2) of the Code)
which covers or has covered employees or former employees of Workflow, any
Subsidiary of Workflow or any ERISA Affiliate has at all times been operated in
material compliance with the provisions of Part 6 of subtitle B of Title I of
ERISA and Section 4980B of the Code; no lien imposed under the Code or ERISA on
the assets of Workflow or any Subsidiary of Workflow or any ERISA Affiliate
exists or is likely to arise on account of any Plan; and Workflow and its
Subsidiaries may cease contributions to or terminate any employee benefit plan
maintained by any of them without incurring any material liability.
(b) Each Foreign Pension Plan has been maintained in material
compliance with its terms and with the requirements of any and all applicable
laws, statutes, rules, regulations and orders and has been maintained, where
required, in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities. All
contributions required to be made with respect to a Foreign Pension Plan have
been timely made. Neither Workflow nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred any
material obligation in connection with the termination of or withdrawal from any
Foreign Pension Plan. The present value of the accrued benefit liabilities
(whether or not vested) under each Foreign Pension Plan, determined as of the
end of Workflow's most recently ended fiscal year on the basis of actuarial
assumptions, each of which is reasonable, did not exceed the current value of
the assets of such Foreign Pension Plan allocable to such benefit liabilities.

As soon as possible after such notice has been given, but in no event later than
60 days after such notice, Workflow shall cause such Subsidiary to (x) execute a
counterpart of the applicable Pledge Agreement and Security Agreement (or
another pledge agreement or security agreement, as the case may be, in

Pledge Agreement shall be pledged to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the
Secured Creditors pursuant to the U.S. Pledge Agreement (or another pledge
agreement in substantially similar form, if needed), and in the case of a
failure to deliver the evidence described in clause (ii) above, such Foreign
Subsidiary shall execute and deliver the U.S. Security Agreement (or another
security agreement in substantially similar form, if needed), granting the
Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors a security interest in
all of such Foreign Subsidiary's assets, and in the case of a failure to deliver
the evidence described in clause (iii) above, such Foreign Subsidiary shall

Workflow and/or its Subsidiaries, provided that Workflow may, prior to the
--------
successful completion of the QPO, contact and solicit holders of such options
and otherwise prepare for the Cash/Cancel Transaction (other than by making any
payments to holders of such options) in any manner that Workflow may reasonably
consider appropriate. Prior to the successful completion of the QPO and the
occurrence of the Cash/Cancel Transaction, Workflow shall place all proceeds of
any extensions of credit under this Agreement intended to be used in connection
with the Cash/Cancel Transaction into an account with the Agent (the
"Cash/Cancel Escrow Account") in which the Collateral Agent shall have a
security interest on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Agent. All
amounts in the Cash/Cancel Escrow Account shall be used, subject to the limits
set forth, above only in connection with the Cash/Cancel Transaction or be used
to prepay the Loans and/or cash collateralize Bankers' Acceptance Loans and/or
Letters of Credit, provided that on August 1, 2000 any amounts in the

the full payment and performance by Workflow of its Obligations and (b) execute
and deliver security agreements, mortgages, hypothecs and such other security
documents as the Agent may require, each such security document to be in form
and substance satisfactory to the Agent, securing the obligations of the

referred to in clause (a) above. The Lenders and the Agent hereby acknowledge
that the obligations of the Canadian Credit Parties under the guaranties
referred to in clause (a) above and the liens on the assets of the Canadian
Credit Parties are subordinate and junior to the obligations of the Canadian

time owned by such Person and/or one or more Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries of such
Person and (ii) any partnership, association, joint venture or other entity in
which such Person and/or one or more Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries of such Person

SECTION 11. The Agent.
---------
11.01 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints
-----------
Fleet as Agent of such Lender (such term to include for purposes of this Section
11, Fleet acting as Collateral Agent) to act as specified herein and in the
other Credit Documents, and each such Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes Fleet
as the Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this
Agreement and the other Credit Documents and to exercise such powers and perform
such duties as are expressly delegated to the Agent by the terms of this
Agreement and the other Credit Documents,
98
together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each
Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the Canadian Co-Agent to take such action
on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit
Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly
delegated to the Canadian Co-Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other
Credit Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto. Each of the Agent and the Canadian Co-Agent agrees to act as such upon
the express conditions contained in this Section 11. Notwithstanding any
provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Credit
Document, neither the Agent nor the Canadian Co-Agent shall not have any duties
or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in the other
Credit Documents, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied
covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall
be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against the Agent or the Canadian
Co-Agent. The Agent is nevertheless a "representative" of the Lenders, as that
term is defined in Article 1 of the Uniform Commercial Code, for purposes of
actions for the benefit of the Lenders and the Agent with respect to all
collateral security and guaranties contemplated by the Credit Documents. Such
actions include the designation of the Agent as "secured party", "mortgagee" or
the like on all financing statements and other documents and instruments,
whether recorded or otherwise, relating to the attachment, perfection, priority
or enforcement of any security interests, mortgages or deeds of trust in
collateral security intended to secure the payment or performance of any of the
Obligations, all for the benefit of the Lenders and the Agent. The provisions of
this Section 11 are solely for the benefit of the Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent
and the Lenders, and neither the Borrowers nor any of their respective
Subsidiaries shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the
provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement,
each of the Agent and the Canadian Co-Agent shall act solely as agent of the
Lenders and neither the Agent nor the Canadian Co-Agent shall be deemed to have
assumed any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with or for any
Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries. In addition to the foregoing
powers, each Lender hereby expressly authorizes the Agent and the Collateral
Agent to amend or to amend and restate each of the "Security Documents" as
defined in the Existing Credit Agreement to the extent that such Security
Documents are amended or amended and restated in connection with the
effectiveness of this Agreement or the occurrence of the Canadian Effective
Date.
11.02 Delegation of Duties. Each of the Agent and the Canadian Co-Agent
--------------------
may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Credit Document
(including any Security Document) by or through agents, subcollateral agents or
attorneys-in-fact (each of whom shall be entitled to the benefits of this
Section 11 to the same extent as the Agent or the Canadian Co-Agent, as
applicable) and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters
pertaining to such duties. Neither the Agent nor the Canadian Co-Agent shall be
responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents, sub-collateral
agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.
11.03 Exculpatory Provisions. None of the Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent
----------------------
nor any of their officers, directors, employees, agents, sub-collateral agents,
attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully
taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with
this Agreement or the other Credit Documents (except for its or such Person's
own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to
any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties
made by the Borrowers, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their
respective officers contained in this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or
in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided
for in, or received by the Agent or the Canadian Co-Agent under or in connection
with, this Agreement or any
99
other Credit Document or for any failure of any Borrower or any of their
respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers to perform its
obligations hereunder or thereunder. Neither the Agent nor the Canadian Co-Agent
shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the
observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions
of, this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, or to inspect the properties,
books or records of the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries.
Neither the Agent nor the Canadian Co-Agent shall be responsible to any Lender
for the effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or
sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or for any
representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or
made in any written or oral statement or in any financial or other statements,
instruments, reports, certificates or any other documents in connection herewith
or therewith furnished or made by the Agent or the Canadian Co-Agent to the
Lenders or by or on behalf of the Borrowers or any of their respective
Subsidiaries to the Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent or any Lender or be required to
ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms,
conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained herein or therein or
as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or of the existence or possible
existence of any Default or Event of Default.
11.04 Reliance by Agent. Each of the Agent and the Canadian Co-Agent shall
-----------------
be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note,
writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram,
telegram, facsimile, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other
document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have
been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and
statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the
Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries), independent accountants and
other experts selected by the Agent or the Canadian Co-Agent. Each of the Agent
and the Canadian Co-Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to
take any action under this Agreement or any other Credit Document unless it
shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it
deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the
Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by
reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each of the Agent and
the Canadian Co-Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in
refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents in
accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any
action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the
Lenders.
11.05 Notice of Default. Neither the Agent nor the Canadian Co-Agent
-----------------
shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or
Event of Default hereunder unless such Person has actually received notice from
a Lender or any Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or
Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default." In the
event that the Agent receives such a notice, the Agent shall give prompt notice
thereof to the Lenders. The Agent shall take such action with respect to such
Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required
Lenders; provided, that, unless and until the Agent shall have received such
directions, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or
refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of
Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.
11.06 Non-Reliance on Agent and other Lenders. Each Lender expressly
---------------------------------------
acknowledges that none of the Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent nor any of their
respective officers, directors, employees, agents, sub-collateral agents,
attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to
it and that no act by the Agent or the Canadian Co-Agent hereinafter taken,
including
100
any review of the affairs of the Borrowers or any of their respective
Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by
the such Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to each of the Agent and
the Canadian Co-Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents
and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and
investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, financial and
other condition, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrowers and their
respective Subsidiaries and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder
and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will,
independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent or any
other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals
and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement, and to make
such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business,
assets, operations, property, financial and other condition, prospects and
creditworthiness of the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries. Neither the
Agent nor the Canadian Co-Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide
any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business,
operations, assets, property, financial and other condition, prospects or
creditworthiness of any Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries which
may come into the possession of the Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent or any of its
officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.
11.07 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each of the Agent
---------------
and the Canadian Co-Agent in its capacity as such ratably according to their
respective "percentages" as used in determining the Required Lenders at such
time, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, reasonable expenses or
disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without
limitation, at any time following the payment of the Obligations) be imposed on,
incurred by or asserted against the Agent or the Canadian Co-Agent in their
capacity as such in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any
other Credit Document, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or
the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted to be taken
by the Agent or the Canadian Co-Agent under or in connection with any of the
foregoing, but only to the extent that any of the foregoing is not paid by the
Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries; provided, that no Lender
--------
shall be liable to the Agent or the Canadian Co-Agent for the payment of any
portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person (as finally determined by
a court of competent jurisdiction). To the extent any Lender would be required
to indemnify the Agent or the Canadian Co-Agent pursuant to the immediately
preceding sentence but for the fact that it is a Defaulting Lender, such
Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any portion of any payment or
other distribution hereunder until each other Lender shall have been reimbursed
for the excess, if any, of the aggregate amount paid by such Lender under this
Section 11.07 over the aggregate amount such Lender would have been obligated to
pay had such first Lender not been a Defaulting Lender. If any indemnity
furnished to the Agent or the Canadian Co-Agent for any purpose shall, in the
opinion of such Person be insufficient or become impaired, such Person may call
for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified
against until such additional indemnity is furnished. The agreements in this
Section 11.07 shall survive the payment of all Obligations.
11.08 Agent in its Individual Capacity. Each of the Agent and the
--------------------------------
Canadian Co-Agent and their affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from
and generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower and any of their
respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though such Person were
101
not the Agent or Canadian Co-Agent hereunder. With respect to the Loans made by
it and all Obligations owing to it, each of the Agent and the Canadian Co-Agent
shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Lender and may
exercise the same as though it were not the Agent or the Canadian Co-Agent and
the terms "Lender" and "Lenders" shall include each of the Agent and the
Canadian Co-Agent in its individual capacity.
11.09 Holders. Each of the Agent and the Canadian Co-Agent may deem and
-------
treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless
and until a written notice of the assignment, transfer or endorsement thereof,
as the case may be, shall have been filed with such Person. Any request,
authority or consent of any Person or entity who, at the time of making such
request or giving such authority or consent, is the holder of any Note shall be
conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee, assignee or
indorsee, as the case may be, of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in
exchange therefor.
11.10 Resignation of the Agent; Successor Agent.
-----------------------------------------
(a) Each of the Agent and the Canadian Co-Agent may resign from the
performance of all its respective functions and duties hereunder and/or under
the other Credit Documents at any time by giving 15 Business Days' prior written
notice to the Lenders. Such resignation shall take effect upon the appointment
of a successor Agent or Canadian Co-Agent, as applicable, pursuant to clauses
(b) and (c) below or as otherwise provided below.
(b) Upon any such notice of resignation by the Agent or the Canadian
Co-Agent, the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Agent or Canadian Co-
Agent hereunder or thereunder who shall be a commercial bank or trust company
reasonably acceptable to Workflow.
(c) If a successor Agent or Canadian Co-Agent shall not have been so
appointed within such 15 Business Day period, the Agent with the consent of
Workflow (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), shall
then appoint a successor Agent or Canadian Co-Agent, as applicable, who shall
serve a successor Agent or Canadian Co-Agent, as applicable, as provided above.
(d) If no successor Agent or Canadian Co-Agent has been appointed
pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above by the 20th Business Day after the date such
notice of resignation was given by the Agent or Canadian Co-Agent, as
applicable, the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of the
Agent (or the Canadian Lenders shall thereafter perform all of the duties of the
Canadian Co-Agent, as applicable) hereunder and/or under any other Credit
Document until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor
Agent or Canadian Co-Agent as provided above.
11.11 Syndication Agent and Co-Agents. None of the Co-Agents or the
-------------------------------
Syndication Agent shall have any right, power, obligation, liability,
responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to it as
Lender as such and shall not have any fiduciary relationship with any other
Lender. Each Lender makes the same acknowledgements with respect to each Co-
Agent and the Syndication Agent as it makes with respect to the Agent and
Canadian Co-Agent in Section 11.06.
102
SECTION 12. Miscellaneous.
-------------
12.01 Payment of Expenses, etc. The Borrowers jointly and severally agree
------------------------
to: (i) whether or not the transactions herein contemplated are consummated, pay
all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agent, the Canadian Co-
Agent and the Arranger (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and
disbursements of Xxxxxxx Xxxx LLP and local counsel) in connection with the
negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery and administration of the
Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein and any
amendment, waiver or consent relating thereto and in connection with the Agent's
and the Arranger's syndication efforts with respect to this Agreement; (ii) pay
all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agent, the Canadian Co-
Agent and each of the Lenders in connection with the enforcement of the Credit
Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein and, after an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the protection of the
rights of the Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent and each of the Lenders thereunder,
including in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit
arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a "work-out" or
pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings (including, without
limitation, in each case the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel
(including in-house counsel) for the Agent and for each of the Lenders); (iii)
pay and hold each of the Lenders harmless from and against any and all present
and future stamp and other similar taxes with respect to the foregoing matters
and save each of the Lenders harmless from and against any and all liabilities
with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission (other than to the
extent attributable to such Lender) to pay such taxes; and (iv) indemnify the
Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent and each Lender, their
subsidiaries and affiliates, and their officers, directors, employees,
representatives, agents and sub-collateral agents (each an "Indemnitee") from
and hold each of them harmless against any and all losses, liabilities, claims,
damages, settlement payments, obligations, actions or causes of action, costs or
expenses incurred, suffered, sustained or required to be paid by any of them as
a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of this
Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any transaction related thereto,
including, without limitation (a) any investigation (other than those undertaken
pursuant to Section 7.02), litigation or other proceeding (whether or not the
Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent or any Lender is a party
thereto) related to the entering into and/or performance of this Agreement or
any other Credit Document or the use of the proceeds of any Loans hereunder or
the consummation of any other transactions contemplated in any Credit Document,
or (b) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials in the air, surface
water or groundwater or on the surface or subsurface of any Real Property owned,
leased or at any time operated by any Borrower or any of their respective
Subsidiaries, the Release, generation, storage, transportation, handling or
disposal of Hazardous Materials at any location, whether or not owned, leased or
operated by such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the non-compliance by any
Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries of any Real Property with
foreign, federal, state and local laws, regulations, ordinances or Environmental
Laws (including applicable permits thereunder) applicable to any Real Property,
or any Environmental Claim relating to any Borrower or any of their respective
Subsidiaries or any Real Property owned, leased or at any time operated by any
Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries, including, in each case,
without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel acting for
the Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent and the Lenders and not reasonably
objectionable to the Borrowers incurred in connection with any such
investigation, litigation or other proceeding (but excluding any such losses,
liabilities, claims, damages or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person to be indemnified (as
finally determined by the court of competent jurisdiction)). The Agent, the
Canadian Co-Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to select their own counsel
not reasonably objectionable to the Borrowers in connection with any of the
matters set forth in this Section 12.01. To the extent
103
that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless any Person set forth in
the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law
or public policy, the Borrowers shall make the maximum contribution to the
payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities which is
permissible under applicable law.
12.02 Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted
---------------
under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such
rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
each Lender is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without
presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to any Borrower or any
of their Subsidiaries or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby
expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits
(general or special) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by
such Lender (including, without limitation, by branches, agencies and affiliates
of such Lender wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of any
Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor against and on account of the Obligations
and liabilities of any Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor to such Lender under
this Agreement or under any of the other Credit Documents, including, without
limitation, all interests in Obligations of the Borrowers or any of their
Subsidiaries purchased by such Lender pursuant to Section 12.06(b), and all
other claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this
Agreement or any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not such
Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although said Obligations,
liabilities or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured.
12.03 Notices. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices
-------
and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including
telegraphic, telex, facsimile or cable communication) and mailed, telegraphed,
telexed, telecopied, cabled or delivered, if to any Credit Party, at the address
specified opposite its signature below or in the other relevant Credit
Documents, as the case may be; if to any Lender, at its address specified for
such Lender on Annex II; or, at such other address as shall be designated by any
party in a written notice to the other parties hereto. All such notices and
communications shall, when mailed, telegraphed, telexed, telecopied, or cabled
or sent by overnight courier, be effective (x) three Business Days after
deposited in the mails, (y) one Business Day after delivered to the telegraph
company, cable company or a recognized, overnight courier, as the case may be,
or (z) when sent by telex or telecopier, except that notices and communications
to the Agent or the Canadian Co-Agent shall not be effective until received by
such Person.
12.04 Benefit of Agreement.
--------------------
(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of
and be enforceable, by the respective successors and assigns of the parties
hereto; provided, that no Borrower may assign or transfer any of its rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lenders and,
provided further, that, although any Lender may transfer, assign or grant
----------------
participations in its rights hereunder, such Lender shall remain a "Lender" for
all purposes hereunder and the transferee, assignee or participant, as the case
may be, shall not constitute a "Lender" hereunder and, provided further, that no
----------------
Lender shall transfer or grant any participation under which the participant
shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any
other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (i)
extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Letter of Credit (unless such
Letter of Credit is not extended beyond the Final Maturity Date) in which such
participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment
of interest or Fees (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any
post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof
(it being understood
104
that any amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this
Agreement or to Section 12.07(a) shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of
interest or Fees for the purposes of this clause (i)), or increase the amount of
the participant's participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being
understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory
reduction in the Total Revolving Commitment shall not constitute a change in the
terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Revolving Commitment or
Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the
participant's participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) consent
to the assignment or transfer by any Borrower of any of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement to the extent relating to such participation or
(iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all of the
Security Documents (except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents). In
the case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights
under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the participant's
rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set
forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the participant
relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrowers hereunder shall be
determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender may (x) assign all or a
portion of its Revolving Commitment and/or Term Loans (and related outstanding
Obligations hereunder) to any Affiliate of such Lender or to one or more Lenders
or (y) assign all, or if less than all, a portion equal to at least $5,000,000
in the aggregate for the assigning Lender, of its Revolving Commitment and/or
Dollar Term Loans (and related outstanding Obligations hereunder) to one or more
Eligible Transferees, provided that (i) the assignment by any Lender of its
Canadian Sub-Commitment (or any portion thereof) shall constitute the assignment
of a like amount of such Lender's (or its respective Affiliate's) Revolving
Commitment, (ii) any assignment of all or any portion of the Revolving
Commitment of any Lender shall be required to be accompanied by the assignment
of all or such portions of the Canadian Sub-Commitment and/or Dollar Revolving
Sub-Commitment of such Lender (or its respective Affiliate) as is equal, in the
aggregate, to the amount of the Revolving Commitment being so assigned, (iii)
any assignment of all or any portion of the Revolving Commitment and related
outstanding Obligations shall be made on a basis such that the respective
assignee participates in Revolving Loans and in Letter of Credit Outstandings,
in accordance with the Revolving Commitment (and Canadian Sub-Commitment
described above) so assigned, (iv) at such time Annexes I-A, I-B and I-C shall
be deemed modified to reflect the Revolving Commitments, Canadian Sub-
Commitments and Dollar Term Loan Commitments of such new Lender and of the
existing Lenders, (v) upon surrender of the old Notes (if any), new Notes will
be issued, at the Borrower's expense, to such new Lender and to the assigning
Lender upon the request of such new Lender and such new Notes to be in
conformity with the requirements of Section 1.06 to the extent needed to reflect
the revised Revolving Commitments and Dollar Terms, (vi) the consent of Workflow
(so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists) and the Agent shall be
required in connection with any such assignment pursuant to clause (y) above
(each of which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (vii)
the Agent shall receive at the time of each such assignment, from the assigning
or assignee Lender, the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $3,500,
(viii) no assignment shall be effective until recorded by the Agent on the
Register pursuant to Section 12.17 and (ix) after such assignment neither the
assigning Lender's nor the assignee Lender's Revolving Commitment plus its
----
Dollar Term Loans outstanding shall be less than $10,000,000, provided that the
--------
assigning Lender's Revolving Commitment plus its Dollar Term Loans outstanding
----
may be $0 after such assignment. If any Lender so sells or assigns all or a
part of its rights hereunder or under the Notes, any reference in this Agreement
or the Notes to such assigning Lender shall thereafter refer to such Lender and
to the respective assignee to the extent of their respective interests and the
respective assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment
105
(unless otherwise provided therein), the same rights and benefits as it would if
it were such assigning Lender. Each assignment pursuant to this Section 12.04(b)
shall be effected by the assigning Lender and the assignee Lender executing an
Assignment and Assumption Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit K,
appropriately completed (each, an "Assignment and Assumption Agreement"). To the
extent of any assignment pursuant to this Section 12.04(b), the assigning Lender
shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned
Revolving Commitment and Term Loans. At the time of each assignment pursuant to
this Section 12.04(b) to a Person which is not already a Lender hereunder and
which is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section
7701(a)(30) of the Code) for Federal income tax purposes, the respective
assignee Lender shall, to the extent legally entitled to do so, provide to
Workflow the appropriate Internal Revenue Service Forms (and, if applicable, a
Section 4.04(b)(ii) Certificate) described in Section 4.04(b). To the extent
that an assignment of all or any portion of a Lender's Revolving Commitments
and/or Dollar Term Loans and related outstanding Obligations pursuant to Section
1.14 or this Section 12.04(b) would, at the time of such assignment, result in
increased costs under Sections 1.11, 2.05 or 4.04 from those being charged by
the respective assigning Lender prior to such assignment, then Workflow shall
not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although Workflow, in accordance
with and pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement, shall be obligated
to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from
changes after the date of the respective assignment).
(c) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender
from pledging its Loans and Notes hereunder to a Federal Reserve Lender in
support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Lender.
12.05 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of
------------------------------
the Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent or any Lender in
exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit
Document and no course of dealing between any Credit Party and the Agent, the
Collateral Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent or any Lender shall operate as a waiver
thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or
privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege
hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies herein expressly provided are
cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Agent, the
Collateral Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent or any Lender would otherwise have. No
notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit
Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances
or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent, the
Collateral Agent or the Lenders to any other or further action in any
circumstances without notice or demand.
12.06 Payments Pro Rata.
-----------------
(a) Each of the Agent and the Canadian Co-Agent agrees that promptly
after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of any Credit Party in
respect of any Obligations of such Credit Party., it shall, except as otherwise
provided in this Agreement, distribute such payment to the Lenders (other than
any Lender that has consented in writing to waive its pro rata share of such
payment) pro rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations
with respect to which such payment was received.
(b) Except to the extent that this Agreement provides for payments
to be allocated to the Lenders with particular Obligations, (i) if any Lender
shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its U.S. Obligations
owing to it, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral
106
in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant
to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 9.05, pursuant to
any Security Document or otherwise) (a "U.S. Benefited Lender"), in a greater
proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender,
if any, in respect of such other Lender's U.S. Obligations owing to such other
Lender, or interest thereon, such U.S. Benefited Lenders shall purchase for cash
from the other Lenders with U.S. Obligations a participating interest in such
portion of each such other Lender's U.S. Obligations owning to each such other
Lenders, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such
collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such U.S.
Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or
proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders with U.S. Obligations; provided,
--------
however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is
-------
thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be
rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such
recovery, but without interest and (ii) if any Lender shall at any time receive
any payment of all or part of its Canadian Obligations owing to it, or interest
thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or
involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature
referred to in Section 9.05, pursuant to any Security Document or otherwise)(a
"Canadian Benefited Lender"), in a greater proportion than any such payment to
or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other
Lender's Canadian Obligations owing to such other Lender, or interest thereon,
such Canadian Benefited Lenders shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders
with Canadian Obligations a participating interest in such portion of each such
other Lender's Canadian Obligations owning to each such other Lenders, or shall
provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the
proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Canadian Benefited Lender
to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably
with each of the Lenders with Canadian Obligations; provided, however, that if
-----------------
all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered
from such Canadian Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the
purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery.
12.07 Calculations; Computations.
--------------------------
(a) The financial statements to be furnished to the Lenders pursuant
hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied
throughout the periods involved (except as set forth in the notes thereto or as
otherwise disclosed in writing by Workflow to the Lenders); provided, that (i)
for purposes of determining compliance with any incurrence tests set forth in
Section 8 (excluding Sections 8.09 and 8.10), any amounts so incurred or
expended (to the extent incurred or expended in a currency other than Dollars)
shall be converted into Dollars on the basis of the Dollar Equivalent of the
respective amounts as in effect on the date of such incurrence or expenditure
under any provision of any such Section that has an aggregate, Dollar limitation
provided for therein (and to the extent the respective incurrence test regulates
the aggregate amount outstanding at any time and it is expressed in terms of
Dollars, all outstanding amounts originally incurred or spent in currencies
other than Dollars shall be converted into Dollars on the basis of the Dollar
Equivalent of the respective amounts as in effect on the date any new incurrence
or expenditures made under any provision of any such Section that regulates the
Dollar amount outstanding at any time) and (ii) except as otherwise specifically
provided herein, all computations determining compliance with Section 8,
including definitions used therein, shall utilize accounting principles and
policies in effect at the time of the preparation of, and in conformity with
those used to prepare, the year end financial statements delivered to the
Lenders pursuant to Section 6j 0(b).
(b) All computations of interest on Base Rate Loans, Canadian Prime
Rate Loans, Eurodollar Loans and Fees (including Letter of Credit Fees and
Facing Fees, but excluding
107
Acceptance Fees) hereunder shall be, made on the basis of the actual number of
days elapsed over a year of 360 days. Acceptance Fees shall be calculated on the
basis of the term of maturity of the Bankers' Acceptance and a year of 365 days.
(c) For purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), (i) whenever any
interest or fee under this Agreement is calculated using a rate based on a year
of 360 or 365 days, as the case may be, the rate determined pursuant to such
calculation, when expressed as an annual rate, is equivalent to (x) the
applicable rate based on a year of 360 or 365 days, as the case may be, (y)
multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period
for which such interest or fee is payable (or compounded) ends, and (z) divided
by 360 or 365, as the case may be, (ii) the principle of deemed reinvestment of
interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement, and
(iii) the rates of interest stipulated in this Agreement are intended to be
nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.

12.10 Effectiveness; Canadian Effective Date.
--------------------------------------
(a) This Agreement shall become effective on the date (the
"Effective Date") on which (i) the Borrowers, the Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent
and each of the Lenders shall have signed a counterpart hereof (whether the same
or different counterparts) and shall have delivered the same to the Agent at the
Notice Office or, in the case of the Lenders, shall have given to the Agent
telephonic (confirmed in writing), written or telex notice (actually received)
at such office that the same has been signed and mailed to it and (ii) the

Lender that the conditions contained in Section 5 have not been met to its
satisfaction, upon the satisfaction of the condition described in clause (i) of
the immediately preceding sentence and upon the Agent's good faith determination
that the conditions described in clause (ii) of the immediately preceding
sentence have been met, then the Effective Date shall have been deemed to have

conditions thereto had not been met. The Agent will give each Borrower and each
Lender prompt written notice of the occurrence of the Effective Date.
(b) The "Canadian Effective Date" shall be the date on which the
conditions to the occurrence of the Canadian Effective Date set forth in Section
5 are satisfied. Unless the Agent or the Canadian Co-Agent has received actual
notice from any Canadian Lender that such conditions contained in Section 5 have
not been met to its satisfaction, upon the Agent's and the Canadian Co-Agent's
good faith determination that such conditions have been met, then the Canadian

subsequent determination that one or more of the conditions thereto had not been
met. The Agent will give each Borrower and each Lender prompt written notice of
the occurrence of the Canadian Effective Date.

any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.
12.12 Amendment or Waiver.
-------------------
(a) Neither this Agreement nor any other Credit Document nor any
terms hereof or thereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated unless
such change, waiver, discharge
109
or termination is in writing signed by the Required Lenders and the Borrowers
(or, in the case of any Credit Document other than this Agreement, as otherwise
provided therein); provided, that no such change, waiver, discharge or
--------

Lender) being directly affected thereby, (i) extend the final scheduled maturity
of any Loan or Note or extend the stated expiration date of any Letter of Credit
beyond the Final Maturity Date, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment

post-default increase in interest rates) or Fees, or reduce the principal amount

definitions in this Agreement or to Section 12.07(a) shall not constitute a
reduction in the rate of interest or Fees for the purposes of this clause (i)),
(ii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral (except as expressly
provided in the Credit Documents) under all of the Security Documents, or
release any Guarantor from its obligations under any Guaranty to which it is a
party (except (in each case) as expressly provided in the Credit Documents),

that any such amendment, modification or waiver would alter any of the voting
provisions set forth in the other provisions of this Section 12.12, (iv) reduce
the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders (it being
understood that, with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions
of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the

Commitments are included on the Effective Date) or (v) consent to the assignment
or transfer by any Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement or any other Credit Document except in accordance with the terms
hereof or thereof; provided further, that no such change, waiver, discharge or
----------------
termination shall (w) increase the Revolving Commitment (or Canadian Sub-
Commitment) or Dollar Term Loan Commitment of any Lender over the amount thereof
then in effect without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that
waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events
of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Total Revolving Commitment shall
not: constitute an increase of the Revolving Commitment (or Canadian Sub-
Commitment) of any Lender, and that an increase in the available portion of any
Revolving Commitment (or Canadian Sub-Commitment) or Dollar Term Loan Commitment
of any Lender shall not constitute an increase in the Revolving Commitment (or
Canadian Sub-Commitment) of such Lender), (x) without the consent of the Letter
of Credit Issuer, amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2 or alter its
rights or obligations with respect to Letters of Credit, (y) without the consent
of Fleet, amend or modify the obligation of Fleet to make Swingline Loans, the

termination with respect to any of the provisions of this Agreement as
contemplated by clauses (i) through (v), inclusive, of the first proviso to
Section 12.12(a), the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained but the
consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is not
obtained, then Workflow shall have the right, to replace each such non-
consenting Lender or Lenders (so long as all non-consenting Lenders are so
replaced) with one or more Replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 1.14 so long
as at the time of such replacement, each such Replacement Lender consents to the
proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination, provided that Workflow shall
not have the right to replace a Lender solely as a result of the exercise of
such Lender's rights (and the withholding of any required consent by such
Lender) pursuant to the second proviso to Section 12.12(a).
110
12.13 Survival. All indemnities set forth herein including, without
--------
limitation, in Section 1.11, 1.12, 2.05, 4.04, 11.07 or 12.01, shall survive the
execution and delivery of this Agreement, the making and repayment of the Loans
and, with respect to any Lender that makes any assignment pursuant to Section
12.04, shall survive such assignment for the benefit of such assigning Lender.
12.14 Domicile of Loans. Each Lender may transfer and carry its Loans at,
-----------------
to or for the account of any branch office, Subsidiary or Affiliate of such
Lender provided that no Borrower shall be responsible for costs arising under
Section 1.11, 2.05 or 4.04 resulting from any such transfer (other than a
transfer pursuant to Section 1.13) to the extent such costs would not otherwise
be applicable to such Lender in the absence of such transfer.
12.15 Confidentiality.
---------------
(a) Each of the Lenders agrees that it will use its best efforts not
to disclose without the prior consent of Workflow (other than to its employees,
auditors, counsel or other professional advisors, to affiliates or to another
Lender if the Lender or such Lender's holding or parent company in its sole
discretion determines that any such party should have access to such
information) any information with respect to Workflow or any of its Subsidiaries
which is furnished pursuant to this Agreement and which is designated by
Workflow to the Lenders in writing as confidential provided that any Lender may
disclose any such information (a) as has become generally available to the
public, (b) as may be required or appropriate in any report, statement or
testimony submitted to any municipal, state or Federal regulatory body having or
claiming to have jurisdiction over such Lender or to the Federal Reserve Board
or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar organizations (whether
in the United States or elsewhere) or their successors, (c) as may be required
or appropriate in response to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any
litigation, (d) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling
applicable to such Lender, and (e) to any prospective transferee in connection
with any contemplated transfer of any of the Loans or Notes or any interest
therein by such Lender provided that such prospective transferee agrees to be
bound by the provisions of this Section. In connection with any disclosure by a
Lender pursuant to clause (c) of the immediately preceding sentence, such Lender
agrees to use its best efforts to give Workflow prior notice of such disclosure
to the extent such prior notice is practicable or permitted under the
circumstances, although the failure to give any such notice shall not result in
any liability of such Lender to Workflow or any of its Subsidiaries. No Lender
shall be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by any Borrower
or any Subsidiary of any Borrower. The Borrowers hereby agree that the failure
of a Lender to comply with the provisions of this Section 12.15 shall not
relieve any Borrower of any of its obligations to such Lender under this
Agreement and the other Credit Documents.
(b) Each of the Borrowers hereby acknowledges and agrees that each
Lender may, in connection with the Transaction or the participation of such
Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, share with any
of its affiliates any information related to Workflow or any of its Subsidiaries
(including, without limitation, any nonpublic customer information regarding the
creditworthiness of Workflow and its Subsidiaries, provided such Persons shall
be subject to the provisions of this Section 12.15 to the same extent as such
Lender).
12.16 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby
--------------------
irrevocably waives all right to a trial by jury in any action, proceeding or
counterclaim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the other Credit
Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.
111
12.17 Register. The Borrowers hereby designate the Agent to serve as the
--------
Borrowers' agent, solely for purposes of this Section 12.17, to maintain a
register (the "Register") on which it will record the Revolving Commitments and
Dollar Term Loan Commitments from time to time of each of the Lenders, the Loans
made by each of the Lenders and each repayment in respect of the principal
amount of the Loans of each Lender. Failure to make any such recordation, or
any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrowers' obligations in
respect of such Loans. With respect to any Lender, the transfer of the
Revolving Commitments and Dollar Term Loan Commitments of such Lender and the
rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made pursuant to such
Revolving Commitments or Dollar Term Loan Commitments shall not be effective
until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by the Agent with
respect to ownership of such Revolving Commitments, Dollar Term Loan Commitments
and Loans and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with
respect to such Revolving Commitments and Loans shall remain owing to the
transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any
Revolving Commitments, Dollar Term Loan Commitments and Loans shall be recorded
by the Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Agent of a properly
executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to Section
12.04(b). Coincident with the delivery of such an Assignment and Assumption
Agreement to the Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer
of all or part of a Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or
transferor Lender shall surrender the Note (if any) evidencing such Loan, and
thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be
issued to the assigning or transferor Lender and/or the new Lender upon the
request of any such Lender. The Borrowers jointly and severally agree to
indemnify the Agent from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and
liabilities of whatsoever nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or
incurred by the Agent in performing its duties under this Section 12.17.
12.18 Judgment Currency.
-----------------
(a) The Credit Parties' obligations hereunder and under the other
Credit Documents to make payments in the respective Applicable Currency (the
"Obligation Currency") shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or
recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency
other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or
recovery results in the effective receipt by the Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent,
the Collateral Agent or the respective Lender of the full amount of the
Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the Agent, the Canadian Co-Agent,
the Collateral Agent or such Lender under this Agreement or the other Credit
Documents. If for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any
Credit Party in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to
convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other
currency being hereinafter referred to as the "Judgment Currency") an amount due
in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the Canadian Dollar
Equivalent or the Dollar Equivalent thereof, as the case may be, and, in the
case of other currencies, the rate of exchange (as quoted by the Agent or if the
Agent does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a known dealer in
such currency designated by the Agent) determined, in each case, as of the day
immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given (such Business Day
being hereinafter referred to as the "Judgment Currency Conversion Date").
(b) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between
the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the
amount due, the Borrowers covenant and agree to pay, or cause to be paid, such
additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount) as may be
necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when
112
converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will
produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased
with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial
award at the rate or exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion
Date.
(c) For purposes of determining the Canadian Equivalent or the
Dollar Equivalent or any other rate of exchange for this Section, such amounts
shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of
the Obligation Currency.
12.19 Authorization for Quebec Security. For greater certainty, and
---------------------------------
without limiting the powers of the Agent hereunder or under any of the Security
Documents, DBF hereby acknowledges that the Agent shall, for purposes of holding
any security granted by DBF on DBF's property pursuant to the laws of the
Province of Quebec, be the holder of an irrevocable power of attorney (within
the meaning of the Civil Code of Quebec) for all present and future Lenders, and
in particular for all present and future holders of any debenture described in
Exhibit I-4. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably constitutes, to the extent
necessary, the Agent as the holder of an irrevocable power of attorney (within
the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec) in order to hold
security granted by DBF in the Province of Quebec. Any assignee of any Lender
shall be deemed to have confirmed and ratified the constitution of the Agent as
the holder of such irrevocable power of attorney by execution of the relevant
Assignment and Assumption Agreement. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section
32 of the Special Corporate Powers Act (Quebec), the Agent may acquire and be
the holder of any debenture issued by DBF as contemplated under any of the
Security Documents at any time and from time to time. DBF hereby acknowledges
that any such debenture constitutes a title of indebtedness, as such term is
used in Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec.
12.20 Acknowledgment Regarding Canadian General Guaranty. The Lenders and
--------------------------------------------------
the Agent hereby acknowledge that the obligations of the U.S. Credit Parties
under the Canadian General Guaranty and the liens on the assets of the U.S.
Credit Parties securing the U.S. Credit Parties' obligations in respect of the
Canadian General Guaranty are subordinate and junior to the obligations of the
U.S. Credit Parties in respect of their other Obligations (including, without
limitation, in respect of the Dollar Loans and the Letters of Credit).
SECTION 13. Transitional Arrangements.
-------------------------
13.01 Existing Credit Agreement Superseded. This Agreement shall supersede
------------------------------------
the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety, except as provided in this (S)13.
On the Effective Date, the rights and obligations of the parties under the
Existing Credit Agreement and the "Notes" as defined therein shall be subsumed
within and be governed by this Agreement and the Notes; provided, however, that
each of the "Revolving Loans", "Swingline Loans" and "Competitive Bid Loans" (as
each such term is defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) outstanding under
the Existing Credit Agreement on the Effective Date shall, for purposes of this
Agreement, be included as, respectively, as Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans
and Competitive Bid Loans and each of the "Letters of Credit" (as defined in the
Existing Credit Agreement) outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement on
the Effective Date shall be Letters of Credit.
13.02 Return and Cancellation of Notes. Upon its receipt of the Notes to
--------------------------------
be delivered hereunder on the Effective Date, each Bank will promptly return to
the Borrower, marked "Exchanged" or "Cancelled," as applicable, the Notes of the
Borrower held by such Bank pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement, if any.
113
13.03 Interest and Fees Under Superseded Agreement. All interest and all
--------------------------------------------
commitment and other fees and expenses owing or accruing under or in respect of
the Existing Credit Agreement shall be calculated as of the Effective Date
(prorated in the case of any fractional periods), and shall be paid on the dates
and in accordance with the method specified in the Existing Credit Agreement, as
if the Existing Credit Agreement were still in effect.
