(e) Reimbursement. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 1:00 p.m., Local Time, (i) on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the applicable Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., Local Time, on such date, or, (ii) if such notice has not been received by the applicable Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 1:00 p.m., Local Time on the Business Day immediately following the day that the applicable Borrower receives such notice; provided that, if such LC Disbursement is denominated in a currency permitted for Loans to the applicable Borrower as provided in Section 2.01 or Section 2.05, as applicable, and is not less than the minimum borrowing amount in the applicable currency, the applicable Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or Section 2.05 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Loan Borrowing, a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing, a UK Base Rate Borrowing, a Singapore Base Rate Borrowing, a UAE Base Rate Borrowing or a Swingline Loan Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the applicable Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Loan Borrowing, Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing, UK Base Rate Borrowing, Singapore Base Rate Borrowing, UAE Base Rate Borrowing or Swingline Loan Borrowing. If the applicable Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Applicable Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable Class of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the applicable Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each such Revolving Lender shall pay to the Applicable Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the applicable Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Applicable Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from such Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Applicable Agent of any payment from the applicable Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Applicable Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and the applicable Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The applicable Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the

73

provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, such Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Applicable Agent, the Revolving Lenders nor any Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the applicable Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the applicable Borrower that are caused by the applicable Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

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

(h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the applicable Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans, UK Base Rate Loans, Singapore Base Rate Loans or UAE Base Rate Loans (as applicable for the relevant currency and Class of Commitments); provided that, if the applicable Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(k) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Revolving Lender to the extent of such payment.

74

(i) Replacement of the Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent (or the Singapore Administrative Agent or the UAE Administrative Agent, as applicable), the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Applicable Agent shall notify the applicable Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, each Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued and payable by such Borrower for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit of the applicable Class to be issued thereafter, and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” (with respect to such Class) shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank (with respect to such Class), or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks (with respect to such Class), as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower Representative or any applicable Borrower receives notice from any Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders (or Required UAE Lenders or Required Singapore Lenders in the case of UAE Letters of Credit or Singapore Letters of Credit, respectively) with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, such Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Applicable Agent (or, if requested, the Administrative Agent), in the name of such Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders (the “LC Collateral Account”), an amount in cash of the applicable currency in which such Letter of Credit is issued equal to 102% of the LC Exposure as of such date plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to any Borrower described in clause (h), (i), (j), (k) or (l) of Article VII. Such deposit shall be held by the Applicable Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations. The Applicable Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account and the applicable Borrower hereby grants the Applicable Agent a security interest in the LC Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Applicable Agent and at the applicable Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Applicable Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the applicable Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Lenders (or

75

Required UAE Lender or Required Singapore Lenders in the case of UAE Letters of Credit or Singapore Letters of Credit, respectively) with LC Exposure of such Class representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure of such Class), be applied to satisfy other Secured Obligations. If a Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the applicable Borrower within three Business Days after all such Events of Default have been cured or waived.

The Applicable Agent will make such Loans available to the applicable Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to the Funding Account designated by the applicable Borrower to the applicable Agent, provided that ABR Revolving Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans, UK Base Rate Loans, Singapore Base Rate Loans or UAE Base Rate Loans made to finance the reimbursement of (i) an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall be remitted by the Applicable Agent to the Issuing Bank and (ii) a Protective Advance shall be retained by the Applicable Agent.

(b) Unless the Applicable Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Applicable Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Applicable Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.07(a) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Applicable Agent, then the applicable and the applicable Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Applicable Agent, forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Applicable Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, (A) for Dollar Denominated Loans, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Applicable Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, (B) for loans denominated in Euros, C$ or British Pounds Sterling, the rate determined by the UK Administrative Agent, the Singapore Administrative Agent, the UAE Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent (as applicable) to be the cost to it of funding such amount or (C) a rate determined by the Applicable Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of US Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans, in the case of Canadian Borrowers, the

88

In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such

89

event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the Eurocurrency market.

105

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

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

Section 2.19 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then:

(a) such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or Section 2.17, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender (and the Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment);

(b) the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, require such Lender or any Lender that defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder (herein, a “Departing Lender”), upon notice to the Applicable Agent (with a copy to Administrative Agent if the Administrative Agent is not the Applicable Agent) to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of the Applicable Agent and the Administrative Agent if the Administrative Agent is not the Applicable Agent (and the applicable Issuing Bank), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) the Departing Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation

106

under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Departing Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. In the event any Departing Lender is a US Revolving Lender, a UK Revolving Lender or a Canadian Revolving Lender, any Related Affiliate of such Lender which holds interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (other than in respect of UAE Revolving Commitments, UAE Loans, Singapore Revolving Commitments or Singapore Loans), will be required to assign and delegate all such interests, rights and obligations to the same assignee or a Related Affiliate of such assignee as provided in Section 9.04.

Section 2.20 Returned Payments. If after receipt of any payment which is applied to the payment of all or any part of the Obligations, any Agent or any Lender is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment or proceeds to any Person because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, then the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued and this Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by such Agent or such Lender. The provisions of this Section 2.20 shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by any Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or application of proceeds. The provisions of this Section 2.20 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 2.21 Additional Reserve Costs. (a) If and so long as any Lender is required by the Bank of England or any other monetary or other authority of the United Kingdom to make special deposits, to maintain reserve asset ratios or to pay fees, in each case in respect of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans, such Lender may require the Borrower in respect of such Loans to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on each of such Loans, additional interest on such Loan at a rate per annum equal to the Mandatory Costs Rate calculated in accordance with the formula and in the manner set forth in Schedule 2.21.

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

(c) Any additional interest owed pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) above shall be determined by the relevant Lender consistent with customary banking practices, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and notified to the applicable Borrower (with a copy to the Applicable Agent (and the Administrative Agent if the Administrative Agent is not the Applicable Agent)) at least five Business Days before each date on which interest is payable for the relevant Loan, and such additional interest so notified to such Borrower by such Lender shall be payable to the Applicable Agent for the account of such Lender on each date on which interest is payable for such Loan.

107

Section 2.22 Increase of Commitments. (a) If no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and no event, change or condition has occurred that has had, or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect, since the Effective Date, the Borrowers may at any time from time to time prior to the Maturity Date request one or more increases of the US Revolving Commitments, Canadian Revolving Commitments or the UK Revolving Commitments by notice to the Administrative Agent in writing of the amount of such proposed increase (each such notice, a “Commitment Increase Notice”); provided, however, that, (i) none of the US Revolving Commitment, the Canadian Revolving Commitment or the UK Revolving Commitment of any Revolving Lender may be increased without such Revolving Lender’s consent, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Commitments as so increased shall not exceed $175,000,000, (iii) any increase in either the Canadian Revolving Commitment or the UK Revolving Commitment, each as herein provided, shall require a corresponding dollar per dollar increase in the US Revolving Commitment (such corresponding increase shall not be deemed to be an additional increase), (iv) the Commitments may not be increased without the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (v) that portion of the Revolving Commitments representing an increase in the Revolving Commitments made pursuant to this Section 2.22 shall only be available for the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder (for purposes of determining compliance with this clause (v) Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be the last credit extended under a Revolving Commitment - it being intended that no Borrower shall be in violation of this clause (v) unless the principal amount of Revolving Loans and Protective Advances outstanding to such Borrower exceed the amount of the aggregate Revolving Commitments to such Borrower before giving effect to such increase), and (vi) the aggregate amount of such increases during the term of this Agreement shall not exceed $25,000,000.

(b) The Borrowers may, in their sole discretion, but with the consent of the Administrative Agent as to any Person that is not at such time a Revolving Lender (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), offer to any existing Revolving Lender or to one or more additional banks or financial institutions the opportunity to participate in all or a portion of the increased US Revolving Commitments, the Canadian Revolving Commitments, or UK Revolving Commitments, by notifying the Administrative Agent; provided, that the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments of any New Lender (including the Revolving Commitments of its Related Affiliates) shall be at least $10,000,000; provided, further that after giving effect to any increase in the commitments pursuant to this Section 2.22, all Revolving Lenders, including any new Revolving Lender (together with its Related Affiliates) shall have pro rata Revolving Commitments with respect to the US Revolving Commitments, Canadian Revolving Commitments and UK Revolving Commitments. Promptly and in any event within five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice from the Borrowers of their desire to offer such commitments to certain existing Revolving Lenders or to the additional banks or financial institutions identified therein, the Administrative Agent shall notify such proposed lenders of the opportunity to participate in all or a portion of the increased US Revolving Commitments Canadian Revolving Commitments, or UK Revolving Commitments.

(c) Any existing Revolving Lender that accepts the Borrowers’ offer to

108

increase its US Revolving Commitments, Canadian Revolving Commitments or UK Revolving Commitments shall execute a Commitment Increase Agreement with the Borrowers and Administrative Agents, whereupon such Revolving Lender shall be bound by, and entitled to the benefits of, this Agreement with respect the full amount of its US Revolving Commitment, Canadian Revolving Commitment or UK Revolving Commitment, as applicable, as so increased.

(d) Any additional bank or financial institution which is not an existing Revolving Lender and which accepts the Borrowers’ offer to participate in the increased US Revolving Commitments, Canadian Revolving Commitments, or UK Revolving Commitments shall execute and deliver to the Agents and the Borrowers a New Lender Agreement setting forth its US Revolving Commitment, Canadian Revolving Commitment or UK Revolving Commitment (subject to the limitations on the amounts thereof set forth herein), and upon the effectiveness of such New Lender Agreement such bank or financial institution (a “New Lender”) shall become a US Revolving Lender, Canadian Revolving Lender or UK Revolving Lender as applicable, for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement, and the signature pages hereof shall be deemed to be amended to add the name of such New Lender.

(e) Upon any increase in the US Revolving Commitments, Canadian Revolving Commitments or UK Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.22, the Commitment Schedule shall be deemed amended to reflect the US Revolving Commitment, Canadian Revolving Commitment or UK Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender (including any New Lender) as thereby increased.

THE AGENTS

Each of the Lenders and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints each Agent as its agent and authorizes each Agent to take such actions on its behalf, including execution of the other Loan Documents, and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

The banks serving as the Agents hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Loan Parties or any Subsidiary of a Loan Party or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent hereunder.

148

The Agents shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Agents shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Agents shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Agents shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by a bank serving as an Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by the Borrower Representative or a Lender, and such Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection with any Loan Document, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral or the existence of the Collateral or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent.

Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

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

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided in this paragraph, each Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Borrower Representative. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right,

149

in consultation with the Borrowers, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a commercial bank or an Affiliate of any such commercial bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Agent.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Each Lender hereby agrees that (a) it has requested a copy of each Report prepared by or on behalf of the Agent; (b) each Agent (i) makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the completeness or accuracy of any Report or any of the information contained therein or any inaccuracy or omission contained in or relating to a Report and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report; (c) the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, and that any Person performing any field examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Loan Parties and will rely significantly upon the Loan Parties’ books and records, as well as on representations of the Loan Parties’ personnel and that the Agent undertakes no obligation to update, correct or supplement the Reports; (d) it will keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use, not share the Report with any Loan Party or any other Person except as otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement; and (e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, it will pay and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold the Administrative Agent and any such other Person preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including reasonable attorney fees on a solicitor-client full-indemnity basis) incurred by as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except (i) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or, (ii) in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (A) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (provided that the Administrative Agent may make Protective Advances as set forth in Section 2.04), (B) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce or forgive any interest or fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (C) postpone any scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any date for the payment of any interest, fees or other Obligations payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (D) change Section 2.19(b) or (E) in a manner that would alter the manner in which payments are shared, without the written consent of each Lender, (F) increase the advance rates set forth in the definitions of Canadian Borrowing Base, UK Borrowing Base or US Borrowing Base or add new categories of eligible assets, without the written consent of the Supermajority Revolving Lenders, (G) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definitions of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of US Revolving Lenders, Canadian Revolving Lenders and UK Revolving Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each US Revolving Lender, Canadian Revolving Lender and UK Revolving Lender, (H) release any Loan Guarantor from its obligation under its Loan Guaranty (except as otherwise permitted herein or in the other Loan Documents), without the written consent of each Lender, (I) except as provided in clauses (d) and (e) of this Section or in any Collateral Document, release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the written consent of each Lender or (J) waive, amend or modify any definition representation, warranty, covenant, event of default or other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document which directly affects any UAE Loan Party, any Singapore Loan Party, any UAE Revolving Commitment, any Singapore Revolving Loan Commitment, any UAE Loan, any Singapore Loan, the UAE Borrowing Base, the Singapore Borrowing Base, any UAE Letter of Credit or UAE LC Exposure, any Singapore Letter of Credit of Singapore LC Exposure without the written consent of the Required UAE Lenders and the Required Singapore Lenders; provided that, it is agreed that waivers, amendments and modifications binding on or applicable solely to US Loan Parties, UK Loan Parties, Canadian Loan Parties, US Collateral, UK Collateral and Canadian Collateral are not subject to this clause (J) notwithstanding that such waivers, amendments and modifications may indirectly affect any of the Singapore Revolving Lenders or the UAE Revolving Lenders or components of the credit facilities as a result of the status of the US Loan Parties , the Canadian Loan Parties and the UK Loan Parties as Loan Guarantors and

153

grantors of security securing the UAE Secured Obligations and Singapore Secured Obligations; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender affected thereby, as the case may be. The Administrative Agent may also amend the Commitment Schedule to reflect assignments entered into pursuant to Section 9.04

(c) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize any Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release any Liens granted to Collateral Agent by the Loan Parties on any Collateral (i) upon the termination of all Commitments, payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Secured Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations), and the cash collateralization of all Unliquidated Obligations (other than such obligations in respect of indemnifications hereunder and expenses relating thereto to the extent there is no pending claim in respect of such indemnity) in a manner satisfactory to each affected Lender, (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if the Loan Party disposing of such property certifies to the Applicable Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (and each Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), (iii) constituting property leased to a Loan Party under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, or (iv) as required to effect any sale or other disposition of such Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Applicable Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Article VII. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, no Collateral Agent will release any Liens on Collateral without the prior written authorization of the Required Lenders; provided that, each Collateral Agent may in its discretion, release its Liens on Collateral valued in the aggregate not in excess of $5,000,000 during any calendar year without the prior written authorization of the Required Lenders. Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

(d) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender affected thereby,” the consent of the Required Lenders or the Required UAE Lenders or Required Singapore Lenders (as applicable) is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrowers may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement, provided that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (or the Singapore Administrative Agent or UAE Administrative Agent if such Lender is a Singapore Revolving Lender or UAE Revolving Lender) shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of clause (b) of Section 9.04, and (ii) the Borrowers shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (A) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by the Borrowers hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Section 2.14 and Section 2.16, and (B) an amount, if any,

154

equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 2.15 had the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender.

Section 9.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by each Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for such Agent, in connection with the syndication and distribution (including, without limitation, via the internet or through a service such as Intralinks) of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions of the Loan Documents (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for such Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement, collection or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit. Expenses being reimbursed by the Borrowers under this Section include, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, costs and expenses incurred in connection with:

155

(b) The Borrowers shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Agents, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of the Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

(c) To the extent that the Borrowers fail to pay any amount required to be paid by it to any Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, penalty, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers, the Agents, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.15, Section 2.16 and Section 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.19 as though it were a Lender.

159

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16 or Section 2.18 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower Representative’s prior written consent.

All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 2.15, Section 2.16, Section 2.17 and Section 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

Section 9.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 9.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers or such Loan Guarantor against any of and all the Secured Obligations held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under the Loan Documents and although such obligations may be unmatured. The applicable Lender shall notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent of such set-off or application, provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such set-off or application under this Section; provided further that (a) no Lender shall exercise any right of setoff with respect to any deposit of any Loan Party which is not a US Loan Party to satisfy Secured Obligations other than the Canadian Secured Obligations, the UAE Secured Obligations, the Singapore Secured Obligations, and the UK Secured Obligations. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”) hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the names and addresses of the Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the Act.

Section 9.15 Disclosure. Each Loan Party and each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent and/or its Affiliates from time to time may hold investments in, make other loans to or have other relationships with any of the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates.

Section 9.16 Appointment for Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other applicable law can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender (other than the Administrative Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions.

Section 9.17 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

Section 9.18 Financial Assistance Limitations. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to the contrary, no Canadian Loan Party, UK Loan Party, Singapore Loan Party, UAE Loan Party or Foreign Subsidiary that becomes a Loan Party will have any liability hereunder or thereunder for, nor shall any of the assets of any such Canadian Loan Party, UAE Loan Party, Singapore Loan Party, UK Loan Party or Foreign Subsidiary that becomes a Loan Party (including proceeds of any Collateral owned by any such Canadian Loan Party, UAE Loan Party, Singapore Loan Party or UK Loan Party) be applied against or issued to satisfy or offset, any indebtedness, obligations or liabilities (actual or contingent) of any US Loan Party, including any US Secured Obligations.

Section 9.19 Judgment Currency.

(a) If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing any judgment against any Borrowers or any Loan Party in any court in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this Section 9.19 referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due under any Loan Document in any currency (the “Obligation Currency”) other than the Judgment Currency, the conversion shall be made at the Dollar Equivalent and, in the case of other currencies, the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day immediately preceding (i) the date of actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date, or (ii) the date on which the judgment is given, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the applicable date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Section 9.19 being hereinafter in this Section referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

(b) If, in the case of any proceeding, there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual receipt for value of the amount due, the applicable Borrower or Loan Party shall pay such additional amount (if any, but in any event not lesser amount) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount actually received in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of the Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date. Any amount due from a Borrower or Loan Party under this paragraph shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of any of the Loan Documents.

(c) The Term “rate of exchange” in this Section means the rate of exchange at which the Administrative Agent would, on the relevant date at or about 12:00 noon (New York time), be prepared to sell the Obligation Currency against the Judgment Currency.

Section 9.20 Financial Assistance Requirements. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event will any UK Loan Party or any Singapore Loan Party be deemed to have incurred any obligation under any Loan Document or granted any Lien under any Loan Document to secure any Secured Obligation in violation of Section 151 of the Company’s Act or Section 76, Chapter 50 of the Companies Act of Singapore, until the UK Whitewash Procedures or Singapore Whitewash Procedures, as the case may be, have been satisfied. In furtherance thereof, (i) no UK Loan Party will enter into any Security Agreement or be deemed to be, or become, a Loan Guarantor pursuant to Article X hereof until such time as the UK Whitewash Procedures have been satisfied and such UK Loan Party has executed and delivered to the UK Collateral Agent a UK Security Agreement and to the Administrative Agent a Loan Party Joinder Agreement in accordance with Section 5.15 hereto, (ii) the Singapore Borrower will not borrow any Singapore Revolving Loans or obtain Singapore Letters of Credit and no Singapore Loan Party will enter into any Security Agreement or be deemed to be, or

165

become, a Loan Guarantor pursuant to Article X hereof until such time as the Singapore Whitewash Procedures have been satisfied and such Singapore Loan Party has executed and delivered to the Singapore Collateral Agent a Singapore Security Agreement and to the Administrative Agent a Loan Party Joinder Agreement in accordance with Section 5.16 hereof, and (iii) the UK Borrower will not borrow any UK Revolving Loans or obtain UK Letters of Credit until such time as the UK Whitewash Procedures have been satisfied and each UK Loan Party has delivered to the UK Collateral Agent the UK Security Agreements and other documents required by Section 5.15 hereof.

None of the Arrangers, Issuing Bank and Lenders shall refer to Holdings, its Subsidiaries or the JCP Parties in any press release or other public disclosure made by or on behalf of the Arrangers, Issuing Bank and Lenders, or any of its Affiliates, without the prior written consent of Holdings and the JCP Parties.

ARTICLE X

LOAN GUARANTY

Section 10.01 Guaranty.

(a) Holdings, the US Borrower, EM LLC, and each other US Loan Party now or hereafter a party hereto, each in its capacity as a Loan Guarantor, hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Lenders the prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the Secured Obligations and all costs and expenses including, without limitation, all court costs and attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees (including allocated costs of in-house counsel and paralegals) and expenses paid or incurred by the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders in endeavoring to collect all or any part of the Secured Obligations from, or in prosecuting any action against, any Borrower, any Loan Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Secured Obligations (such costs and expenses, together with the Secured Obligations, collectively the “US Guaranteed Obligations”).

(b) The Canadian Borrower, EMCayman, the UK Borrower and each Loan Party (other than a US Loan Party) now or hereafter a party hereto (other than those that have delivered a separate Guaranty), each in its capacity as a Loan Guarantor, hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Lenders the prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the Canadian Secured Obligations, the UAE Secured Obligations, the Singapore Secured Obligations and the UK Secured Obligations and all costs and expenses including, without limitation, all court costs and attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees (on a solicitor-client full indemnity basis, and including allocated costs of in-house counsel and paralegals) and expenses paid or incurred by the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders in endeavoring to collect all or any part of such Canadian Secured Obligations, UAE Secured Obligations, Singapore Secured Obligations and the UK Secured Obligations from, or in prosecuting any action against, any Borrower, any Loan Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or any part of such Obligations (such costs and expenses, together with the

166

such Canadian Secured Obligations, UAE Secured Obligations, Singapore Secured Obligations and UK Secured Obligations collectively the “Canadian/UK/UAE/Singapore Guaranteed Obligations”, and together with the US Guaranteed Obligations, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

Each Loan Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed in whole or in part without notice to or further assent from it, and that it remains bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal. All terms of this Loan Guaranty apply to and may be enforced by or on behalf of any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of any Lender that extended any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations.

Section 10.02 Guaranty of Payment. This Loan Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Each Loan Guarantor waives any right to require any Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to xxx any Borrower, any Loan Guarantor, any other guarantor, or any other person obligated for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations (each, an “Obligated Party”), or otherwise to enforce its payment against any collateral securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations.

Section 10.03 No Discharge or Diminishment of Loan Guaranty. (a) Except as otherwise provided for herein, the obligations of each Loan Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations), including: (i) any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration, or compromise of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower or any other guarantor of or other person liable for any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Obligated Party, or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Obligated Party; or (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which any Loan Guarantor may have at any time against any Obligated Party, any Agent, the Issuing Bank, any Lender, or any other person, whether in connection herewith or in any unrelated transactions.

(b) The obligations of each Loan Guarantor hereunder are not subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any Obligated Party, of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof.

(c) Further, the obligations of any Loan Guarantor hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of any Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or supplement to any provision of any agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection, or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for the obligations of any Borrower for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any obligations of any other guarantor of or other person liable for any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any action or failure to act by any Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender with respect to any collateral securing any part of the

167

Guaranteed Obligations; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Loan Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Loan Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations).

Section 10.04 Defenses Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Loan Guarantor hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Borrower or any Loan Guarantor or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Borrower or any Loan Guarantor, other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Loan Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any person against any Obligated Party, or any other person. Each Agent may, at its election, foreclose on any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any collateral securing all or a part of the Guaranteed Obligations, compromise or adjust any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Obligated Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any Obligated Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of such Loan Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly paid in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Loan Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Loan Guarantor against any Obligated Party or any security.

Section 10.05 Rights of Subrogation. No Loan Guarantor will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification that it has against any Obligated Party, or any collateral, until the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full and the Commitments have been terminated.

Section 10.06 Reinstatement; Stay of Acceleration. If at any time any payment of any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise, each Loan Guarantor’s obligations under this Loan Guaranty with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had not been made and whether or not any Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders are in possession of this Loan Guaranty. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the Loan Guarantors forthwith on demand by the Lender.

Section 10.07 Information. Each Loan Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrowers’ financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each Loan Guarantor assumes and incurs under this

168

Loan Guaranty, and agrees that neither the Issuing Bank, nor any Agent, nor any Lender shall have any duty to advise any Loan Guarantor of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

Section 10.08 Termination. Each Loan Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that this Loan Guaranty is irrevocable until the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full and the Commitments have been terminated. The Lenders may continue to make loans or extend credit to the Borrowers based on this Loan Guaranty. Each Loan Guarantor will continue to be liable to the Lenders for any Guaranteed Obligations created, assumed or committed from time to time, and all subsequent renewals, extensions, modifications and amendments with respect to, or substitutions for, all or any part of that Guaranteed Obligations.

Section 10.09 Taxes. All payments of the Guaranteed Obligations will be made by each Loan Guarantor free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any Loan Guarantor shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Loan Guarantor shall make such deductions and (iii) such Loan Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

Section 10.10 Maximum Liability. The provisions of this Loan Guaranty are severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Loan Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Loan Guarantor’s liability under this Loan Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Loan Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Loan Guarantors or the Lenders, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant Loan Guarantor’s “Maximum Liability”. This Section with respect to the Maximum Liability of each Loan Guarantor is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Lenders to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and no Loan Guarantor nor any other person or entity shall have any right or claim under this Section with respect to such Maximum Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any Loan Guarantor hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each Loan Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum Liability of each Loan Guarantor without impairing this Loan Guaranty or affecting the rights and remedies of the Lenders hereunder, provided that, nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any Loan Guarantor’s obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Liability.

Section 10.11 Contribution. In the event any Loan Guarantor (a “Paying Guarantor”) shall make any payment or payments under this Loan Guaranty or shall suffer any loss as a result of any realization upon any collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this Loan Guaranty, each other Loan Guarantor (each a “Non-Paying Guarantor”) shall contribute to

169

such Paying Guarantor an amount equal to such Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Applicable Percentage” of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such Paying Guarantor. For purposes of this Article X, each Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Applicable Percentage” with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying Guarantor shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (a) such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying Guarantor from the Borrowers after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (b) the aggregate Maximum Liability of all Loan Guarantors hereunder (including such Paying Guarantor) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Liability has not been determined for any Loan Guarantor, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Loan Guarantors from the Borrowers after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this provision shall affect any Loan Guarantor’s several liability for the entire amount of the Guaranteed Obligations (up to such Loan Guarantor’s Maximum Liability). Each of the Loan Guarantors covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this Loan Guaranty from a Non-Paying Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations. This provision is for the benefit of both the Agents, the Issuing Bank, the Lenders and the Loan Guarantors and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 10.12 Liability Cumulative. The liability of each Loan Party as a Loan Guarantor under this Article X is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Loan Party to the Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Loan Party is a party or in respect of any obligations or liabilities of the other Loan Parties, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

Any notice provided to the Borrower Representative hereunder shall constitute notice to each Borrower on the date received by the Borrower Representative.

Section 11.05 Successor Borrower Representative.

SCHEDULE 2.21

MANDATORY COSTS RATE FORMULAE

1. The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank.

2. On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Applicable Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the “Additional Cost Rate”) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Applicable Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum.

3. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Applicable Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans made from that Facility Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Facility Office.

4. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Applicable Agent as follows:

(a) in relation to a BPS Loan:

AB + C(B - D) + E x 0.01 per cent. per annum

          100 - (A+C)

(b) in relation to a Loan in any currency other than BPS:

E x 0.01 per cent. per annum.

    300

Where:

A is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that Lender is from time to time required to maintain as an interest free cash ratio deposit with the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements.

B is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Margin and the Mandatory Cost and, if the Loan is an Unpaid Sum, the additional rate of interest specified in Section 2.13(k) payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan.

Schedule 2.21 - 1

C is the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of England.

D is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits.

E is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000.

5. For the purposes of this Schedule:

(a) “Eligible Liabilities” and “Special Deposits” have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England;

(b) “Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the FSA Supervision Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits;

(c) “Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate); and

(d) “Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules.

6. In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. 5 per cent. will be included in the formula as 5 and not as 0.05). A negative result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero. The resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places.

7. If requested by the Applicable Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Agent, the rate of charge payable by that Reference Bank to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Reference Bank.

8. Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Applicable Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender:

(a) the jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and

Schedule 2.21 - 2

(b) any other information that the Applicable Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.

Each Lender shall promptly notify the Applicable Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.

9. The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Applicable Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Applicable Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as its Facility Office.

10. The Applicable Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects.

11. The Applicable Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above.

12. Any determination by the Applicable Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties.

13. The Applicable Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Applicable Borrower and the Lenders, determine and notify to all applicable Loan Parties any amendments which are required to be made to this Schedule in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties.

“Reference Banks” means, in relation to LIBOR and Mandatory Cost the principal London offices of JPMorgan Chase Bank, London Branch or such other banks as may be appointed by the Applicable Agent in consultation with the Applicable Borrower.

Re:     Edgen Xxxxxx Corporation

Gentlemen and Ladies:

We have acted as special corporate counsel to Edgen Xxxxxx Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the “US Borrower”), Edgen Xxxxxx XX, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Holdings”) and Edgen Xxxxxx LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Edgen LLC”), in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”), dated as of May 11, 2007, among the US Borrower, Edgen Xxxxxx Canada, Inc., an Alberta corporation (the “Canadian Borrower”), Edgen Xxxxxx Europe Limited, an English limited company (the “UK Borrower”), the other Loan Parties party thereto, the several banks and other financial institutions or entities from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”), XX Xxxxxx Xxxxx, N.A., as Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) and US Collateral Agent, XX Xxxxxx Chase, N.A., Toronto Branch, as Canadian Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Canadian Administrative Agent”) and Canadian Collateral Agent, XX Xxxxxx Europe Limited, as UK Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “UK Administrative Agent”) and UK Collateral Agent and XX Xxxxxx Securities, Inc., as lead arranger and bookrunner, and the other Loan Documents and in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby. US Borrower, Holdings, Edgen LLC, Canadian Borrower, UK Borrower and Edgen Xxxxxx Cayman Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted company, are collectively referred to herein as the “Loan Parties” and Holdings and Edgen LLC are collectively referred to herein as the “Credit Parties.” This opinion is being delivered pursuant to Section 4.01 of the Revolving Credit Agreement. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein (including in the Schedules attached hereto) have the meanings specified in the Revolving Credit Agreement.

In connection with this opinion, as a basis for the opinions set forth herein, we have examined originals (or certified copies of executed originals) of the documents described on Schedule I hereto (collectively, the “Credit Documents”) and the originals or copies of the certificate of formation and limited liability company agreement, certificate of limited partnership and limited partnership agreement or equivalent documents, as applicable, of the Credit Parties, certificates of public officials and of the officers of the Loan Parties, resolutions of the members or partners, as applicable, of the Credit Parties with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents and the Delaware Financing Statements (as defined below).

With respect to certain factual matters material to our opinions, we have relied upon (1) representations and warranties of the Loan Parties in the Credit Documents, and (2) certificates or comparable documents of officers of the Loan Parties, public officials and other appropriate

persons. Whenever our opinion with respect to the existence or absence of facts is indicated based on our knowledge or awareness we are referring to the actual knowledge of the Dechert LLP attorneys who have given substantive attention to matters concerning the Loan Parties in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents. Except as expressly set forth herein, we have not undertaken any independent investigation to determine the existence or absence of such facts and no inference as to our knowledge concerning such facts should be drawn from the fact that such representation has been undertaken by us.

In making such examination and rendering the opinions set forth below, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures (other than those of officers of the Credit Parties), the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals of such documents.

In rendering the opinions set forth below, we have assumed that (a) each of the parties (other than the Credit Parties) to the Credit Documents is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and has the requisite power and authority and has taken the legal action necessary to authorize, execute and deliver each such agreement or instrument to which it is, or will become, a party, and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby; (b) each of the parties (other than the Credit Parties) to the Credit Documents has duly authorized, executed and delivered each such agreement or instrument to which it is, or will become, a party; and (c) each of the Credit Documents constitutes legal, valid and binding obligations of each party thereto (other than the Loan Parties), enforceable against such other party in accordance with its respective terms.

Our opinions set forth herein are based on our consideration of only those statutes, rules, regulations and judicial decisions which, in our experience, are normally applicable to or normally relevant in connection with transactions of the type contemplated by the Credit Documents.

In rendering the opinions set forth below, we also have assumed that the Loan Parties have acquired “rights” in and to the Collateral within the meaning of section 9-203 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York (the “NY UCC”) consistent with and sufficient for the purposes of the Credit Documents, and that the same will be true of each item of Collateral acquired or arising after the date hereof.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the qualifications set forth below, we are of the opinion that:

1. Holdings is a limited partnership validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Edgen LLC is a limited liability company validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Each of the Credit Parties has the requisite limited partnership or limited liability company power and limited partnership or limited liability company authority to own, lease and operate its property and to conduct its business as now conducted by it.

2. Each of the Credit Parties has the limited partnership or limited liability company power and limited partnership or limited liability company authority to enter into, execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the terms of each of the Credit Documents to which it is a party and to incur the obligations provided for therein. The execution, delivery and performance by the Credit Parties of each of the Credit Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary limited partnership or limited liability company action on the part of each of the Credit Parties, as applicable.

3. Each Credit Party has duly executed and delivered each Credit Document to which it is a party. Each Credit Document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party which is a party thereto enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms.

4. None of the execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party of the Credit Documents to which it is a party and the consummation by such Credit Party of the transactions contemplated thereby will contravene any provision of the limited partnership agreement of Holdings or the limited liability company agreement of Edgen LLC, to the extent applicable. None of the execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of the Credit Documents to which it is a party and the consummation by such Loan Party of the transactions contemplated thereby will (a) conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any loan agreement, instrument or other agreement listed in Schedule II hereto, (b) result in the creation or imposition of any lien upon any of the property or assets of the Loan Parties (other than pursuant to any Loan Documents or any applicable Term Loan Documents) under any loan agreement, instrument or other agreement described in clause (a) above, (c) assuming the proceeds of the borrowings under the Credit Documents will be used in accordance with the terms thereof, contravene any applicable provision of the federal laws, statutes or regulations of the United States of America and the laws of the State of New York and, in the case of Holdings, the Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the State of Delaware (“DRULPA”) and, in the case of Edgen LLC, the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (“DLLCA”), or, to our knowledge, any order, decree, judgment, writ or injunction of any court, administrative agency or other governmental authority to which such Loan Party is subject.

5. No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any United States federal, State of New York governmental authority, body or agency or under the DRULPA or DLLCA is required for the execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of the Credit Documents to which such Loan Party is a party, or is required as a condition to the validity or enforceability of any of the Credit Documents, except for filings and recordings in connection with the Security Documents which create, maintain or perfect the liens and security interests created thereunder.

6. To our knowledge, there is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or threatened that seeks to restrain, enjoin, prevent the consummation of or otherwise challenge, any of the Credit Documents or any of the transactions contemplated thereby.

7. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties made in the Revolving Credit Agreement with respect to the intended use of the proceeds of the Loans, the transactions and arrangements contemplated by the Credit Documents do not violate Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

8. None of the Loan Parties is an “investment company” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

9. The provisions of the Pledge and Security Agreement are effective to create a valid security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, as security for the Secured Obligations in all right, title and interest of each Loan Party which is a party thereto in those types of Collateral (as defined in the Pledge and Security Agreement) in which a security interest may be created under Article 9 of the NY UCC.

10. Each Delaware financing statement, a copy of which is attached as Schedule III hereto (collectively, the “Delaware Financing Statements”) is in proper form for filing under the Delaware Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Delaware (the “DE UCC”). Upon the proper filing of the Delaware Financing Statements for each Credit Party in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, the security interest and lien in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, will be perfected to the extent a security interest in the applicable Collateral pledged by the Credit Parties may be perfected by filing a financing statement under the DE UCC.

11. Assuming that the law of the State of New York governs the effectiveness of each Blocked Account Control Agreement (“Shifting Control”) listed from number 5 through 14 on Schedule I (the “Blocked Account Agreements”), the provisions of such Blocked Account Agreement are sufficient to create in favor (a) with respect to the Blocked Account Agreements executed by the US Borrower, Holdings and Edgen LLC, the US Administrative Agent, (b) with respect to the Blocked Account Agreements executed by the Canadian Borrower, the Canadian Administrative Agent and (c) with respect to the Blocked Account Agreement executed by Edgen Xxxxxx Cayman Corporation, the UK Administrative Agent, in each case for the benefit of the Lenders, a perfected security interest in the Account(s) (as such term is defined in each Blocked Account Agreement) set forth therein and the funds deposited therein, with the consequences of perfection by control accorded by the New York UCC.

Our opinions set forth above are subject to the following qualifications and limitations:

The opinions expressed herein are limited by principles of equity which may limit the availability of certain rights and remedies and do not reflect the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other laws or decisions relating to or affecting debtors’ obligations or creditors’ rights generally and, as to rights of indemnification and contribution, by principles of public policy. The opinions expressed above also do not reflect the effect of laws and equitable doctrines (including requirements that the parties to agreements act reasonably and in good faith and, with respect to collateral, in a commercially reasonable manner, and give reasonable notice prior to exercising rights and remedies) or the effect of the exercise of discretion of the court before which any proceeding may be brought, which may limit the availability of any particular remedy but which will not, in our judgment, make the remedies available to the Administrative

Agent and the Lenders under the Credit Documents inadequate for the practical realization of the benefits of the security provided for in the Credit Documents, except for the economic consequence of any delay which may be imposed thereby or result therefrom, and except that we express no opinion as to the rights of any of the parties to the Credit Documents to accelerate the due dates of any payment due thereunder or to exercise other remedies available to them on the happening of a non-material breach of any such document or agreement.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, we express no opinion with respect to: (1) the availability of specific performance or other equitable remedies for noncompliance with any of the provisions contained in the Credit Documents; (2) the enforceability of provisions contained in the Credit Documents relating to the effect of laws which may be enacted in the future; (3) the enforceability of provisions in the Credit Documents purporting to waive the effect of applicable laws to the extent such waivers are prohibited by such applicable laws; (4) the effectiveness of any power-of-attorney given under the Credit Documents which is intended to bind successors and assigns which have not granted such powers by a power-of-attorney specifically executed by them; (5) provisions related to waivers of remedy (or the delay or omission of enforcement thereof), disclaimers, liability limitations or limitations on the obligations of the Lenders in circumstances in which a failure of condition or default by any party is not material; (6) the indemnification provisions of the Credit Documents if and to the extent that such provisions contravene public policy or might require indemnification or payments with respect to any litigation against a party to a Credit Document determined adversely to the other party(ies) to such litigation, or any loss, cost or expense rising out of an indemnified party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or any violation by an indemnified party of statutory duties, general principles of equity or public policy; (7) any self-help provisions; (8) provisions in the Credit Documents that purport to establish evidentiary standards; (9) provisions in the Credit Documents that provide that certain rights or obligations are absolute or unconditional; (10) the right of the Lender to set off against funds held in any account maintained with the Lender by a Loan Party and which account is designated, or contains funds that the Lender is aware have been set aside, for special purposes, such as payroll, trust and escrow accounts, or which funds are subject to special agreement between the Lender and a Loan Party precluding or limiting rights to set off funds; (11) provisions that provide for the enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of the applicable Credit Document in circumstances in which certain other terms and provisions of such Credit Document are illegal or unenforceable; (12) provisions which restrict access to or waive legal or equitable remedies or access to courts; (13) provisions which affect or confer jurisdiction (other than on the courts of New York); (14) provisions which permit the Lender to act in its sole discretion or to be exculpated from liability for its actions to the extent not permitted by law; or (15) any provision of the Credit Documents relating to default interest or prepayment penalties which may be construed as a forfeiture or penalty.

Our opinions set forth in paragraph 1 relating to good standing and valid existence are based solely upon our review of certificates issued by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware.

In giving our opinion set forth in paragraph 5, we express no opinion with respect to any action, consent, approval, registration or filing such as may be required as a result of the regulatory status or other facts or circumstances specifically relating to the Administrative Agent, any other agent under the Revolving Credit Agreement or any Lender.

Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications, exceptions and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:

1. The Company is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada. The Company has the corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its property and to conduct its business as now conducted by it.

2. The Company has the corporate power and authority to enter into, execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Credit Documents to which it is a party and to incur the obligations provided for therein. The execution and delivery by the Company of, and the performance of its obligations under, the Credit Documents to which it is a party, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company. The Company has duly executed and delivered the Credit Documents to which it is a party.

3. None of the execution and delivery by the Company of the Credit Documents to which it is a party, the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder, and the consummation of the Transactions, contravenes or results in the breach or violation, as applicable, of (i) the Governing Documents, (ii) any Applicable Nevada Law or (iii) any Applicable Nevada Order.

4. No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any Nevada Governmental Authority is required under Applicable Nevada Law for the execution and delivery by the Company of the Credit Documents to which it is a party, for the performance by such entity of its obligations thereunder, or as a condition to the validity or enforceability of any of the Credit Documents, except for filings and recordings as are required in order to create, perfect or maintain Liens under the US Security Agreement.

5. The Financing Statement is in proper form for filing in the Filing Office. Assuming and to the extent the US Security Agreement are effective under New York or such other governing law as stated therein to create a valid security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in the Collateral that consists of personal property and is described in the US Security Agreement and in the Financing Statement (collectively, the “Personal Property Collateral”), upon the later of attachment of the security interest and the proper filing of the Financing Statement in the Filing Office, the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders will have perfected security interest with respect to that portion of the Personal Property Collateral as to which a security interest may be perfected under the UCC by the filing of a financing statement in the State of Nevada.

The foregoing opinions are subject to the following assumptions, exceptions and qualifications:

(A) With respect to the description of the property and business of the Company for purposes of our opinion in paragraph 1 above, we have relied solely on the Officer’s Certificates and we have conducted no independent investigation nor made any inquiry with respect thereto.

(B) We have assumed that:

(i) prior to the attachment of the security interest of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, in the Personal Property Collateral, value has been given, the Company has sufficient rights to grant a security interest therein or the power to transfer rights in such Personal Property Collateral to a secured party, and one of the conditions set forth in UCC Section 104.9203(2)(c) has been met;

(ii) the descriptions of the Personal Property Collateral in the Financing Statement and the US Security Agreement are accurate and sufficient for purposes of Sections 104.9504 and 104.9108 of the UCC;

(iii) in the event of a change of the name of any party an amendment to the Financing Statement will be duly and timely filed pursuant to Section 104.9507(3) of the UCC;

(iv) none of the Personal Property Collateral consists or will consist of consumer goods, equipment used in farming operations, farm products, crops or timber, or accounts or general intangibles resulting from the sale thereof; and

(v) all filing fees and taxes and other governmental fees and charges, the payment of which is required in connection with the execution, delivery, filing or recording of the Credit Documents and the Financing Statement, have been paid or will be timely paid.

(D) We express no opinion as to:

(i) title to any Personal Property Collateral in which a security interest is granted, the nature or extent of the rights or title of the Company in or to any of such Personal Property Collateral, or the priority of any Lien created or purported to be created in the Personal Property Collateral by the US Security Agreement;

(ii) the perfection of any Lien on Collateral to which Article 9 of the UCC does not apply;

(iii) any provision that (a) purports to continue or reinstate any Lien after all obligations under the Credit Documents have been paid in full, or (b) purports to waive any requirement of Article 9 of the UCC to the extent the same cannot be waived pursuant to Section 104.9602 of the UCC;

(iv) any security interest in Personal Property Collateral consisting of claims against any government or governmental agency including, without limitation, the United States of America or any state thereof or any agency or department of the United States of America or any state thereof;

(v) the perfection of any security interest in copyrights, patents, trademarks, service marks or other intellectual property, or the proceeds thereof, other than under the UCC;

(vii) the ability of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders to recover any deficiency following the disposition of the Personal Property Collateral to the extent such remedy is limited by Section 104.9626 of the UCC; or

(viii) any document or any provision in any document which is referred to in the Credit Documents, or incorporated by reference therein, other than another Credit Document.

(E) We call your attention to the fact that:

(i) in a transaction of this nature Section 104.9515 of the UCC requires the filing of continuation statements within six months prior to the expiration of each five-year period following the original filing of the Financing Statement in order to continue its effectiveness; and

(ii) in the case of proceeds of the Personal Property Collateral, a perfected security interest therein will become unperfected on the 21st day after the security interest attaches to the proceeds unless the conditions required to maintain such perfection in accordance with Section 104.9315(4) of the UCC are satisfied.

The opinions expressed herein are based upon the Applicable Nevada Law and the facts in existence as of the date of this letter. In delivering this letter to you, we assume no obligation, and we advise you that we shall make no effort, to update the opinions set forth herein, to conduct any inquiry into the continued accuracy of such opinions, or to apprise any addressee hereof or its counsel or its assignees of any facts, matters, transactions, events or occurrences taking place, and of which we may acquire knowledge, after the date of this letter, or of any change in any Applicable Nevada Law or any facts occurring after the date of this letter, which may affect the opinions set forth herein.

Very truly yours,
