PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

A. The parties hereto wish to amend the Third Amended Credit Agreement on the terms set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of all of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Amendment have the same meanings as specified in the Amended Credit Agreement (as defined below).

SECTION 2. Amendment. Effective as of the Amendment Effective Date, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Third Amended Credit Agreement is hereby amended to delete the stricken text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: stricken text) and to add the double-underlined text (indicated textually in the same manner or as the following example: double-underlined text) as set forth in the pages of the Third Amended Credit Agreement attached as Exhibit A hereto (the Third Amended Credit Agreement, as so amended and restated, being referred to as the “Amended Credit Agreement”).

SECTION 3. Conditions of Effectiveness. This Amendment and the amendment of the Third Amended Credit Agreement as set forth in Section 2 hereof shall become effective as of the first date (such date being referred to as the “Amendment Effective Date”) when each of the following conditions shall have been satisfied:

(a) Execution of Documents. The Agent shall have received this Amendment, duly executed and delivered by the Borrowers, Guarantors and the Required Lenders (as defined in the Third Amended Credit Agreement).

(b) Fees. The Lead Borrower shall have paid to Bank of America, N.A. all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent (including the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of Xxxxxx Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP, counsel to the Agent), and, if reasonably necessary, the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of one firm of local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction (which may include a single counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) required to be reimbursed or paid by the Borrower hereunder or under the Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, and invoiced at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Amendment Effective Date.

(c) Representations. The representations and warranties set forth in Section 4 hereof are true and correct on and as of the Amendment Effective Date.

SECTION 4. Representations and Warranties. Each Obligor hereby represents and warrants as follows as of the date hereof:

(a) Each Obligor is duly authorized to execute, deliver and perform this Amendment. The execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or organizational action, and do not (i) contravene the applicable Organic Documents of any Obligor; (ii) violate or cause a default under any Applicable Law; or (iii) result in or require the imposition of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any Property of any Obligor, except with respect to contravention, violation or imposition of any Lien referred to in clauses (ii) and (iii) above, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Each of this Amendment and each other Loan Document, after giving effect to the amendments pursuant to this Amendment, is a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Obligor party thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, receivership, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles.

(d) After giving effect to this Amendment, neither the modification of the Third Amended Credit Agreement effected pursuant to this Amendment nor the execution, delivery, performance or effectiveness of this Amendment or the performance of the Amended Credit Agreement:

(i) impairs the validity, effectiveness or priority of the Liens granted pursuant to any Loan Document (which Liens continue unimpaired with the same priority to secure repayment of all Obligations, whether heretofore or hereafter incurred); or

(ii) requires that any new filings be made or other action taken to perfect or to maintain the perfection of such Liens.

(e) Immediately after giving effect to this Amendment, the representations and warranties of each Obligor set forth in Section 8 of the Amended Credit Agreement and in any Security Document are true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of any materiality qualifier contained therein) on and as of the date hereof (except for representations and warranties that expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date).

SECTION 5. Reference to and Effect on the Third Amended Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents.

(a) Except as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of, or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of the Lenders, the Agent or the Borrowers under the Third Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, and shall not alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Third Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, all of which are ratified and reaffirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect. Each Obligor reaffirms its Obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is party and the validity of the Liens granted by it pursuant to the Collateral Documents and, as applicable, acknowledges and accepts its Obligations as to the German Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all Liens granted by any Obligor shall continue to be valid, enforceable and perfected Liens and shall secure the Obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement to the extent set forth therein.

(b) Each German Obligor, who is a party to a German Security Document, individually, and with regard to any accessory (akzessorisch) security interest created under any German Security Document in particular with respect to the provisions of section 1210 paragraph 1 sentence 2 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch) hereby:

(i) confirms to each of the Secured Parties that the security interests created under any German Security Document shall remain in full force and effect and the amendments made to the Loan Documents by the Amended Credit Agreement shall not affect the validity (Wirksamkeit) and enforceability (Vollstreckbarkeit) of such security interests in any way; and

(ii) agrees, that from the Amendment Effective Date, the security interests created under any German Security Document shall secure any and all of the German Obligations and the German Secured Bank Product Obligations (including, without limitation, any obligations owed to the Agent under the parallel debt undertaking (Parallel Debt means the parallel debt undertaking under Section 14.21 (Parallel Debt Undertaking) of the Amended Credit Agreement) and any obligation or liability to pay damages) which are or may become payable or owing by any German Obligor to any Secured Party or any of them pursuant to or in connection with the Loan Documents or any of them (including, but not limited to, any obligation based on unjust enrichment (ungerechtfertigte Bereicherung) or tort (Delikt)), regardless of the definition of “Secured Obligations” contained in any German Security Document which creates a security interest, including any amounts which exceed the obligations secured by such security interests prior to the Amendment Effective Date, in each case, subject to the terms of the respective Security Document, in particular the terms limiting the enforcement of any security interest against any German Obligor for reasons to maintain its registered share capital.

(c) On and after the effectiveness of this Amendment, this Amendment shall constitute a Loan Document for purposes of the Third Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and from and after the Amendment Effective Date, all references to the Credit Agreement in any

Loan Document and all references in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement shall, unless expressly provided otherwise, refer to the Amended Credit Agreement.

SECTION 6. Execution in Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Amendment shall become effective when the Agent has received counterparts bearing the signatures of all parties hereto. Delivery of a signature page of this Amendment by telecopy or other electronic means (including “.pdf” or “.tif” format) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment.

SECTION 7. Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall be given as provided in Section 14.3.1 of the Amended Credit Agreement.

SECTION 8. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Amendment shall be interpreted in such manner as to be valid under Applicable Law. If any provision is found to be invalid under Applicable Law, it shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity and the remaining provisions of this Amendment shall remain in full force and effect. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal, or otherwise unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provisions.

SECTION 9. Successors. The terms of this Amendment shall be binding upon, and shall inure for the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

SECTION 10. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York, without giving effect to any conflict of law principles (but giving effect to federal laws relating to national banks).

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to be executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, as of the date first above written.

1.4 Certain Matters of Construction. The terms “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section, paragraph or subdivision. Wherever the context may require, any pronoun used shall be deemed to cover all genders. In the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, “from” means “from and including,” and “to” and “until” each mean “to but excluding.” The terms “including” and “include” shall mean “including, without limitation” and, for purposes of each Loan Document, the parties agree that the rule of ejusdem generis shall not be applicable to limit any provision. Section titles appear as a matter of convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of any Loan Document. All references to (a) laws or statutes include all related rules, regulations, interpretations, amendments and successor provisions consolidating, amending, replacing, supplementing, or interpreting such law or statute, except as specifically provided otherwise; (b) unless specifically provided otherwise, any document, instrument or agreement (including any Loan Documents) includes any amendments, restatements, amendments and restatements, supplements, waivers and other modifications, extensions or renewals (to the extent not prohibited by the Loan Documents); (c) any section means, unless the context otherwise requires, a section of this Agreement; (d) any exhibits or schedules mean, unless the context otherwise requires, exhibits and schedules attached hereto, which are hereby incorporated by reference; (e) any Person include successors and permitted assigns; (f) unless specified otherwise, all references herein to times of day shall be references to New York time (daylight or standard, as applicable); or (g) discretion of the Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender means the sole and absolute discretion of such Person acting reasonably and in good faith. All determinations (including calculations of fair market value, Borrowing Base and financial covenants) made from time to time under the Loan Documents shall be made in light of the circumstances existing at such time. No provision of any Loan Documents shall be construed against any party by reason of such party having, or being deemed to have, drafted the provision. Whenever the phrase “to the best of the Obligors’ knowledge” or words of similar import

are used in any Loan Documents, it means actual knowledge of a Senior Officer. In the event that payment or performance of any covenant, duty or obligation is stated to be due or performance is required on (or before) a day that is not a Business Day, then the time for such performance or payment shall be extended to the next Business Day and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

When applying baskets, thresholds and other exceptions to the representations, covenants and Events of Default, the Dollar Equivalent to any relevant amount shall be calculated (i) in the case of any Investment, lease, Lien, loan, Debt or other relevant transaction in place on the Third Restatement Date, as at the Third Restatement Date, and (ii) in the case of any Permitted Asset Disposition, Permitted Acquisition, Permitted Investment, lease, Permitted Lien, loan, Debt or taking other relevant action, as at the date the relevant Obligor incurs or makes the relevant Asset Disposition, Acquisition, Investment, lease, Lien, loan, Debt or takes the other relevant action. No Event of Default or breach of any representation or covenant shall arise solely as a result of a subsequent change in the Dollar equivalent of any relevant amount due to fluctuations in exchange rates. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding the amount utilized with respect to each dollar basket exception to the negative covenants contained in Section 9.2 of the Amended Credit Agreement, the amount utilized with respect to each dollar basket exception to the negative covenants contained in Section 9.2 shall be deemed to be zero as of the Third Restatement Date.

1.5 Rounding. Any financial ratios required to be maintained by the Obligors pursuant to this Agreement (or required to be satisfied in order for a specific action to be permitted under this Agreement) shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a rounding-up for five).

1.6 Certain Calculations and Tests.

1.6.1 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent that the terms of this Agreement require (i) compliance with any financial ratio or test (including, without limitation, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Total Net Secured Leverage Ratio or whether the Payment Conditions have been met) and/or the amount of EBITDA or Total Assets or (ii) the absence of a Default or Event of Default (or any type of Default or Event of Default) as a condition to

(A) the consummation of any transaction in connection with any acquisition or similar Investment (including the assumption or incurrence of Indebtedness), (B) the making of any Restricted Payment and/or (C) the making of any Restricted Debt Payment (such action pursuant to clause (A), (B) or (C), a “Limited Condition Transaction”), the determination of whether the relevant condition is satisfied may be made, at the election of the Lead Borrower (a “LCT Election”), (1) in the case of any acquisition or similar Investment, at the time of (or on the basis of the financial statements for the most recently ended Test Period at the time of) either (x) the execution of the definitive agreement with respect to such acquisition or Investment or (y) the consummation of such acquisition or Investment, (2) in the case of any Restricted Payment, at the time of (or on the basis of the financial statements for the most recently ended Test Period at the time of) (x) the declaration of such Restricted Payment or (y) the making of such Restricted Payment and (3) in the case of any Restricted Debt Payment, at the time of (or on the basis of the financial statements for the most recently ended Test Period at the time of) (x) delivery of irrevocable (which may be conditional) notice with respect to such Restricted Debt Payment or (y) the making of such Restricted Debt Payment (the applicable date pursuant to clause (1), (2) or (3), as applicable, the “LCT Test Date”), in each case, after giving effect to the relevant acquisition or similar Investment, Restricted Payment and/or Restricted Debt Payment on a Pro Forma Basis; provided that, solely with respect to any determination of compliance with clauses (iii) and (iv) in the definition of “Payment Conditions”, to the extent the Lead Borrower has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, the determination of such compliance that is a condition to the consummation or making of such Limited Condition Transaction shall be tested at the time of the consummation or making of such Limited Condition Transaction regardless of whether the Lead Borrower has chosen the earlier LCT Test Date. If the Lead Borrower has made an LCT Election for any Limited

Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent determination of compliance with any financial ratio or test (including, without limitation, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Total Net Secured Leverage Ratio or whether the Payment Conditions have been met) and/or the amount of EBITDA or Total Assets with respect to the incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens, or the making of Restricted Payments or Restricted Debt Payments on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, compliance with any such financial ratio or test and/or the amount of EBITDA or Total Assets shall be tested by calculating the availability under such financial ratio or test and/or the amount of EBITDA or Total Assets, as applicable, on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and any other transactions in connection therewith have been consummated (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof).

1.6.2 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or test (including, without limitation, any Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, any Total Net Leverage Ratio test, the Total Net Secured Leverage Ratio and/or whether the Payment Conditions have been met) (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) substantially concurrently with any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that requires compliance with a financial ratio or test (including, without limitation, any Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, any Total Net Leverage Ratio test, the Total Net Secured Leverage Ratio and/or whether the Payment Conditions have been met) (any such amounts, the “Incurrence-Based Amounts”), it is understood and agreed that the Fixed Amounts shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to the Incurrence-Based Amounts.

1.7 Changes in Calculations. For purposes of determining the permissibility of any action, change, transaction or event that by the terms of the Loan Documents requires a calculation of any financial ratio or test (including the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Total Net Leverage Ratio, the Total Net Secured Leverage Ratio or the amount of Total Assets), such financial ratio or test shall be calculated at the time such action is taken, such change is made, such transaction is consummated or such event occurs, as the case may be, and no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of a change in such financial ratio or test occurring after the time such action is taken, such change is made, such transaction is consummated or such event occurs, as the case may be.

1.8 Currency Equivalents Generally. Any amount specified in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be in Dollars shall also include the equivalent of such amount in any currency other than Dollars to the extent necessary to give effect to the intent, where applicable, that this Agreement apply to Canadian Obligors, such equivalent amount thereof in the applicable currency to be determined by the Agent at such time on the basis of the Spot Rate for the purchase of such currency with Dollars. Unless expressly provided otherwise, all references in the Loan Documents to Loans, Letters of Credit, Obligations, Revolver Commitments, Borrowing Base components and other amounts shall be denominated in Dollars. The Dollar Equivalent of any amounts denominated or reported under a Loan Document in a currency other than Dollars shall be determined by the Agent on a daily basis, based on the current Exchange Rate. Borrowers shall report Borrowing Base components to the Agent in the currency invoiced by the applicable Obligors or shown in their financial records, and unless expressly provided otherwise, herein shall deliver financial statements and calculate financial covenants in Dollars. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Obligation is funded and expressly denominated in a currency other

than Dollars, the Obligors shall repay such Obligation in such other currency.

2.1 Revolver Commitment.

2.1.1 Revolver Loans.

(a) Each Lender with a Revolver Commitment to the U.S. Borrowers agrees, severally on a Pro Rata basis up to its Revolver Commitment, on the terms set forth herein, to make Revolver Loans in Dollars (each a “U.S. Revolver Loan”) to the U.S. Borrowers from time to time through the Commitment Termination Date up to the amount as set forth on Schedule I of the Second Amendment Agreement opposite such Lender’s name. The U.S. Revolver Loans may be repaid and reborrowed as provided herein. In no event shall any Lender have any obligation to honor a request for a

U.S. Revolver Loan in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the U.S. Available Credit.

(b) Each Lender with a Revolver Commitment to the Canadian Borrower agrees, severally on a Pro Rata basis up to its Revolver Commitment, on the terms set forth herein, to make Revolver Loans in either Dollars or Canadian Dollars (each, a “Canadian Revolver Loan”) to the Canadian Borrower from time to time through the Commitment Termination Date up to the amount as set forth on Schedule I of the Second Amendment Agreement opposite such Lender’s name. The Canadian Revolver Loans may be repaid and reborrowed as provided herein. In no event shall any Lender have any obligation to honor a request for a Canadian Revolver Loan in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the Canadian Available Credit.

(c) On the Third Restatement Date, in accordance with, and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Second Amendment Agreement, each Lender with a Revolver Commitment to the German Borrowers agrees, severally on a Pro Rata basis up to its Revolver Commitment, on the terms set forth herein, to make Revolver Loans in either Dollars or Euros (each, a “German Revolver Loan”) to a German Borrower from time to time through the Commitment Termination Date up to the amount as set forth on Schedule I of the Second Amendment Agreement opposite such Lender’s name. The German Revolver Loans may be repaid and reborrowed as provided herein. In no event shall any Lender have any obligation to honor a request for a German Revolver Loan in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata share of (i) the German Available Credit or (ii) the Total German Available Credit

2.1.2 Revolver Notes. The Revolver Loans made by each Lender and interest accruing thereon shall be evidenced by the records of the Agent and such Lender. At the request of any Lender, the applicable Borrowers shall deliver a Revolver Note to such Lender.

2.1.3 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of Revolver Loans, including any Revolver Loans pursuant to a Revolver Commitment Increase, and Letters of Credit will be used by the Borrowers

(a) on the Restatement Date, to finance a portion of the Specified Transactions and for working capital needs and other general corporate purposes of the Lead Borrower and its subsidiaries and (b) after the Restatement Date for working capital needs and other general corporate purposes of the Lead Borrower and its subsidiaries, including the financing of Capital Expenditures, Permitted Acquisitions, other Permitted Investments, Restricted Payments and any other purpose not prohibited by the Loan Documents.

2.1.4 Revolver Commitment Increase.

(a) (i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, after the Third Restatement Date, the Borrowers shall have the right to request, by written notice to the Agent, an increase in the Revolver Commitments (a “Revolver Commitment Increase”) in an aggregate amount not

to exceed $20,000,000; provided that (a) the Borrowers shall only be permitted to request 3 Revolver Commitment Increases after the Third Restatement Date, (b) any Revolver Commitment Increase shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000, (c) after giving effect to all such Revolver Commitment Increases, the aggregate amount of the Revolver Commitments outstanding shall not exceed $155,000,000 and (d) each such Revolver Commitment Increase shall be applied (i) 80% to an increase in the U.S. Revolver Sublimit and (ii) 20% to an increase in the Canadian Revolver Sublimit; provided that such percentages shall be adjusted to equal the then-existing proportion of such limits as may have been affected by the operation of Section 2.1.11 prior to such time.

(ii) Each notice submitted pursuant to this Section 2.1.4(a) (a “Revolver Commitment Increase Notice”) requesting a Revolver Commitment Increase shall specify the amount of the increase in the Revolver Commitments being requested. Upon receipt of a Revolver Commitment Increase Notice, the Agent may (at the direction of the Lead Borrower) promptly notify the Lenders with Commitments under the U.S. Sub-Facility and the Canadian Sub-Facility and each such Lender may (subject to the Lead Borrower’s consent) have the right to elect to have its Revolver Commitment increased by its Pro Rata share of the Revolving Commitments under the U.S. Sub-Facility and the Canadian Sub-Facility (it being understood and agreed that a Lender may elect to have its Revolver Commitment increased in excess of its Pro Rata share in its discretion if any other Lender declines to participate in the Revolver Commitment Increase) of the requested increase in Revolver Commitments; provided that (i) each Lender may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to have its Revolver Commitment increased in connection with any requested Revolver Commitment Increase, it being understood that no Lender shall be obligated to increase its Revolver Commitment or make any Revolver Loan under any Revolver Commitment Increase unless it, in its sole discretion, so agrees and, if a Lender fails to respond to any Revolver Commitment Increase Notice within five (5) Business Days after such Lender’s receipt of such request, such Lender shall be deemed to have declined to participate in such Revolver Commitment Increase, (ii) if any Lender declines to participate in any Revolver Commitment Increase and, as a result, commitments from additional financial institutions are required in connection with the Revolver Commitment Increase, any Person or Persons providing such commitment shall be subject to the written consent of the Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), if such consent would be required pursuant to the definition of Eligible Assignee and

(iii) in no event shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to participate in such Revolver Commitment Increase. In the event that any Lender or other Person agrees to participate in any Revolver

Commitment Increase (each an “Increase Loan Lender”), such Revolver Commitment Increase shall become effective on such date as shall be mutually agreed upon by the Increase Loan Lenders and the Lead Borrower, which date shall be as soon as practicable after the date of receipt of the Revolver Commitment Increase Notice (such date, the “Increase Date”); provided that the establishment of such Revolver Commitment Increase and the obligation of such Increase Loan Lenders to make the Revolver Loans thereunder shall be subject to the satisfaction of each of the following conditions: (1) no Event of Default would exist after giving effect thereto; (2) the Revolver Commitment Increase shall be effected pursuant to one or more joinder agreements executed and delivered by the Lead Borrower, the Agent, and the Increase Loan Lenders, each of which shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Lead Borrower, the Agent, and the Increase Loan Lenders; (3) Obligors shall execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered to the Agent such amendments to the Loan Documents, legal opinions and other documents as the Agent may reasonably request in connection with any such transaction, which amendments, legal opinions and other documents shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Agent; and (4) the Borrowers shall have paid to the Agent and the Lenders such additional fees as may be required to be paid by the Borrowers in connection therewith.

(ii) On the Increase Date, upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in this Section 2.1.4(a), (i) the Agent shall effect a settlement of all outstanding Revolver Loans among the Lenders that will reflect the adjustments to the Revolver Commitments of the Lenders as a result of the Revolver Commitment Increase, (ii) the Agent shall notify the Lenders and Obligors of the occurrence of the Revolver Commitment Increase to be effected on the Increase Date, (iii) Schedule I shall be deemed modified to reflect the revised Revolver Commitments of the affected Lenders and (iv) Revolver Notes will be issued, at the expense of the Borrowers, to any Lender participating in the Revolver Commitment Increase and requesting a Revolver Note, all in conformity with the requirements of Section 2.1.2.

(iii) The terms and provisions of the Revolver Commitment Increase shall be identical to the Revolver Loans and the Revolver Commitments (other than with respect to fees) and, for purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, all Revolver Loans made under the Revolver Commitment Increase shall be deemed to be Revolver Loans. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) the rate of interest applicable to the Revolver Commitment Increase shall be the same as the rate of interest applicable to the existing Revolver Loans, (ii) unused line fees applicable to the Revolver Commitment Increase shall be calculated using the same Unused Line Fee Rates applicable to the existing Revolver Loans, (iii) the Revolver Commitment Increase shall share ratably in any mandatory prepayments of the Revolver Loans, (iv) after giving effect to such Revolver Commitment Increases and prior to the Commitment Termination Date, Revolver Commitments shall be reduced on a Pro Rata basis, and (vi) the Revolver Commitment Increase shall rank pari passu in right of payment and security with the existing Revolver Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained in the Loan Documents (including Section 14.1), the rate of interest and the Unused Line Fee Rate or similar fee interest rate applicable to the existing Revolver Loans may, at the sole option of the Borrowers, be increased in excess of the rate of interest and/or fee applicable thereto to match that applicable to the Revolver Commitment Increase. Each joinder agreement and any amendment to any Loan Document requested by the Agent in connection with the establishment of the Revolver Commitment Increase may, without the consent of any of the Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Agent and the Lead Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.1.4(a).

(b) (i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, after the Third Restatement Date, the German Lead Borrower shall have the right to request, by written notice to the Agent, an increase in the Revolver

Commitments (a “German Revolver Commitment Increase”) in an aggregate amount not to exceed $10,000,000; provided that (a) the German Lead Borrower shall only be permitted to request two (2) German Revolver Commitment Increases after the Third Restatement Date,

(b) any German Revolver Commitment Increase shall be in a minimum amount of $2,500,000 (c) after giving effect to all such Revolver Commitment Increases, the aggregate amount of the Revolver Commitments outstanding shall not exceed $155,000,000 and (d) each such German Revolver Commitment Increase shall be applied 100% to increase the Total German Revolver Sublimit.

(ii) Each notice submitted pursuant to this Section 2.1.4(b) (a “German Revolver Commitment Increase Notice”) requesting a German Revolver Commitment Increase shall specify the amount of the increase in the Revolver Commitments being requested. Upon receipt of a German Revolver Commitment Increase Notice, the Agent may (at the direction of the German Lead Borrower) promptly notify the Lenders with Commitments under the German Sub-Facility and each such Lender may (subject to the German Lead Borrower’s consent) have the right to elect to have its Revolver Commitment increased by its Pro Rata share of the Revolving Commitments under the German Sub-Facility (it being understood and agreed that a

Lender may elect to have its Revolver Commitment increased in excess of its Pro Rata share in its discretion if any other Lender declines to participate in the German Revolver Commitment Increase) of the requested increase in Revolver Commitments; provided that (i) each Lender may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to have its Revolver Commitment increased in connection with any requested German Revolver Commitment Increase, it being understood that no Lender shall be obligated to increase its Revolver Commitment or make any Revolver Loan under any German Revolver Commitment Increase unless it, in its sole discretion, so agrees and, if a Lender fails to respond to any German Revolver Commitment Increase Notice within five (5) Business Days after such Lender’s receipt of such request, such Lender shall be deemed to have declined to participate in such German Revolver Commitment Increase, (ii) if any Lender declines to participate in any German Revolver Commitment Increase and, as a result, commitments from additional financial institutions are required in connection with the German Revolver Commitment Increase, any Person or Persons providing such commitment shall be subject to the written consent of the Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), if such consent would be required pursuant to the definition of Eligible Assignee and (iii) in no event shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to participate in such German Revolver Commitment Increase. In the event that any Lender or other Person agrees to participate in any German Revolver Commitment Increase (each an “German Increase Loan Lender”), such German Revolver Commitment Increase shall become effective on such date as shall be mutually agreed upon by the German Increase Loan Lenders and the German Lead Borrower, which date shall be as soon as practicable after the date of receipt of the German Revolver Commitment Increase Notice (such date, the “German Increase Date”); provided that the establishment of such Revolver Commitment Increase and the obligation of such German Increase Loan Lenders to make the

Revolver Loans thereunder shall be subject to the satisfaction of each of the following conditions: (1) no Event of Default would exist after giving effect thereto; (2) the German Revolver Commitment Increase shall be effected pursuant to one or more joinder agreements executed and delivered by the German Lead Borrower, the Agent, and the German Increase Loan Lenders, each of which shall be reasonably satisfactory to the German Lead Borrower, the Agent, and the German Increase Loan Lenders; (3) Obligors shall execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered to the Agent such amendments to the Loan Documents, legal opinions and other documents as the Agent may reasonably request in connection with any such transaction, which amendments, legal opinions and other documents shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Agent; and (4) the Borrowers shall have paid to the Agent and the Lenders such additional fees as may be required to be paid by the Borrowers in connection therewith.

(ii) On the German Increase Date, upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in this Section 2.1.4(b), (i) the Agent shall effect a settlement of all outstanding Revolver Loans among the Lenders that will reflect the adjustments to the Revolver Commitments of the Lenders as a result of the German Revolver Commitment Increase, (ii) the Agent shall notify the Lenders and Obligors of the occurrence of the German Revolver Commitment Increase to be effected on the German Increase Date, (iii) Schedule I shall be deemed modified to reflect the revised Revolver Commitments of the affected Lenders and (iv) Revolver Notes will be issued, at the expense of the Borrowers, to any Lender participating in the German Revolver Commitment Increase and requesting a Revolver Note, all in conformity with the requirements of Section 2.1.2.

(iii) The terms and provisions of the German Revolver Commitment Increase shall be identical to the Revolver Loans and the Revolver Commitments (other than with respect to fees) and, for purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, all Revolver Loans made under the German Revolver Commitment Increase shall be deemed to be Revolver Loans. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) the rate of interest applicable to the German Revolver Commitment Increase shall be the same as the rate of interest applicable to the existing Revolver Loans, (ii) unused line fees applicable to the German Revolver Commitment Increase shall be calculated using the same Unused Line Fee Rates applicable to the existing Revolver Loans, (iii) the German Revolver Commitment Increase shall share ratably in any mandatory prepayments of the Revolver Loans, (iv) after giving effect to such German Revolver Commitment Increases and prior to the Commitment Termination Date, Revolver Commitments shall be reduced on a Pro Rata basis, and (v) the German Revolver Commitment Increase shall rank pari passu in right of payment and security with the existing Revolver Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained in the Loan Documents (including Section 14.1), the rate of interest and the Unused Line Fee Rate or similar fee interest rate applicable to the existing Revolver Loans may, at the sole option of the Borrowers, be increased in excess of the rate of interest and/or fee applicable thereto to match that applicable to the German Revolver Commitment Increase. Each joinder agreement and any amendment to any Loan Document requested by the Agent in connection with the establishment of the German Revolver Commitment Increase may, without the consent of any of the Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Agent and the German Lead Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.1.4(b).

2.1.5 Voluntary Reduction or Termination of Revolver Commitments.

(a) The Revolver Commitments shall terminate on the Revolver Termination Date, unless sooner terminated in accordance with this Agreement. Upon at least 3 days (or such shorter period of time as the Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) prior written notice to the Agent at any time, the Borrowers may, at their option, terminate the Revolver Commitments and this Agreement. Any notice of termination given by the Borrowers shall be irrevocable; provided that such notice may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or transactions, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrowers (by notice to the Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. On the Revolver Termination Date, the Borrowers shall make Full Payment of all Obligations.

(b) The Borrowers may permanently reduce the Revolver Commitments, on a Pro Rata basis for each Lender (provided each such reduction shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any Revolver Loan and any related Revolver Commitments), upon at least 5 days (or such shorter period of time as the Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) prior written notice to the Agent delivered at any time, which notice shall specify the amount of the reduction and shall be irrevocable once given. Each reduction shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, or an increment of $100,000 in excess thereof.

2.1.6 Overadvances. If either (a) the aggregate U.S. Revolver Loans and U.S. LC Obligations outstanding exceed the U.S. Available Credit (a “U.S. Overadvance”), (b) the Canadian Revolver Loans and Canadian LC Obligations outstanding exceed the Canadian Available Credit , (a “Canadian Overadvance”) or (c) the German Revolver Loans and German LC Obligations outstanding exceed the German Available Credit with respect to a German Borrower or the Total German Available Credit with respect to all German Borrowers (a “German Overadvance” and, with any U.S. Overadvance or any Canadian Overadvance, each an “Overadvance”), at any time, the excess amount shall be payable by the applicable Borrowers on demand by the Agent, but all such applicable Revolver Loans or LC Obligations shall nevertheless constitute Secured Obligations secured by the applicable Collateral and entitled to all benefits of the Loan Documents. The Agent may require the Applicable Lenders to honor requests for Overadvance Loans and to forbear from requiring the applicable Borrowers to cure an Overadvance, (a) when no other Event of Default is known to the Agent, as long as (i) the Overadvance does not continue for more than 30 consecutive days (and no Overadvance may exist for at least five consecutive days thereafter before further Overadvance Loans are required), and (ii) the aggregate amount of all Overadvances and Protective Advances is not known by the Agent to exceed 10% of the Borrowing Base, as applicable; and (b) regardless of whether an Event of

Default exists, if the Agent discovers an Overadvance not previously known by it to exist, as long as from the date of such discovery the Overadvance (i) is not increased by more than $500,000, and (ii) does not continue for more than 30 consecutive days. In no event shall Overadvance Loans be required that would cause the aggregate outstanding Revolver Loans and LC Obligations to exceed the aggregate Revolver Commitments. The making of any Overadvance shall not create nor constitute a Default or Event of Default; it being understood that the making or continuance of an Overadvance shall not constitute a waiver by the Agent or the Lenders of the then existing Event of Default. In no event shall any Borrower or other Obligor be permitted to require any Overadvance Loan to be made.

2.1.7 Protective Advances. The Agent shall be authorized, in its discretion, following notice to and consultation with the Lead Borrower, at any time, to make U.S. Base Rate Loans to the U.S. Borrowers, Canadian Prime Loans (through Bank of America (Canada)) to the Canadian Borrower or German Base Rate Loans to a German Borrower (“Protective Advances”) (a) in an aggregate amount, together with the aggregate amount of all applicable Overadvance Loans, not to exceed 10% of the Borrowing Base if the Agent deems such Protective Advances necessary or desirable to preserve and protect the Collateral, or to enhance the collectability or repayment of the Obligations; or

(b) to pay any other amounts chargeable to Obligors under any Loan Documents, including costs, fees and expenses; provided that, the aggregate amount of outstanding Protective Advances plus the outstanding amount of Revolver Loans and LC Obligations shall not exceed the aggregate Revolver Commitments. Each Applicable Lender shall participate in each Protective Advance on a Pro Rata basis. Required Lenders may at any time revoke the Agent’s authority to make further Protective Advances under clause (a) by written notice to the Agent. Absent such revocation, the Agent’s determination that funding of a Protective Advance is appropriate shall be conclusive. The Agent may use the proceeds of such Protective Advances to (a) protect, insure, maintain or realize upon any Collateral; or (b) defend or maintain the validity or priority of the Agent’s Liens on any Collateral, including any payment of a judgment, insurance premium, warehouse charge, finishing or processing charge, or landlord claim, or any discharge of a Lien; provided that the Agent shall use reasonable efforts to notify the Lead Borrower after paying any such amount or taking any such action and shall not make payment of any item that is being Properly Contested. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Canadian Borrower and the German Borrowers shall be liable only for any Protective Advances made to them individually.

2.1.8 Specified/Designated Refinancing Debt.

(a) The Borrowers may, from time to time and up to 3 times prior to the Revolver Termination Date, refinance Revolver Loans or Revolver Commitments, in whole or in part with the proceeds of (i) a new revolving facility (each, a “Specified Refinancing Facility” and the loans and commitments thereunder, “Specified Refinancing Debt”) under this Agreement with the consent of the Agent (to the extent its consent is required by the definition of Eligible Assignee), the Lead Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, and the German Lead Borrower and the entities providing such Specified Refinancing Facility and (ii) one or more series of senior secured loans (each, a “Designated Refinancing Facility” and the loans commitments thereunder, “Designated Refinancing Debt”) outside of this Agreement; provided that (a) any such Specified Refinancing Debt or Designated Refinancing Debt does not mature prior to the Revolver Termination Date, (b) any such Specified Refinancing Debt or Designated Refinancing Debt shall be secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis and shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the Secured Obligations (provided, that the agent for the holders of any Designated Refinancing Debt shall have entered into a joinder to the Intercreditor Agreement or

other customary intercreditor agreement, and (c) the other terms and conditions of such Specified Refinancing Debt or Designated Refinancing Debt (excluding price and optional prepayment or redemption terms) are substantially identically to, or (taken as a whole) not materially more favorable to the lenders (which may be the Lenders) providing such Specified Refinancing Debt or Designated Refinancing Debt than those applicable to the Agent and the Lenders holding the Revolver Loans or Revolver Commitments being refinanced (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Revolver Termination Date).

(b) The Lead Borrower shall make any request for Specified Refinancing Debt pursuant to a written notice to the Agent specifying in reasonable detail the proposed terms thereof. Any proposed Specified Refinancing Debt may (at the Lead Borrower’s direction), but shall not be required to, be requested on a ratable basis from existing Lenders (other than Defaulting Lenders) in respect of the Revolver Loans. At the time of sending such notice, the Lead Borrower (in consultation with the Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Applicable Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than 5 Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to such Lenders). Each Applicable Lender shall notify the Agent within such time period whether it agrees to participate in providing such Specified Refinancing Debt and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Pro Rata portion (based on such Lender’s Pro Rata shares of the Revolver Loans and Revolver Commitments then outstanding) of such requested Specified Refinancing Debt. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to participate in providing such Specified Refinancing Debt. The Agent shall notify the Borrowers and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested issuance of Specified Refinancing Debt, and subject to the consent of the Agent if such consent would be required pursuant to the definition of Eligible Assignee (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the applicable Borrowers may also invite additional Persons to become the Lenders in respect of such Specified Refinancing Debt pursuant to a joinder agreement in form satisfactory to the Agent.

(c) The effectiveness of any Specified Refinancing Debt shall be subject to (i) compliance with the Refinancing Conditions and (ii) to the extent reasonably requested by the Agent, receipt by the Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements substantially consistent with those delivered on the Third Restatement Date under Section

6.1 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion) or otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Agent.

(d) Each incurrence of Specified Refinancing Debt under this Section 2.1.8 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $5,000,000. At no time shall there be Revolver Commitment hereunder (including Extended Revolving Commitments, commitments under a Specified Refinancing Facility and any original Revolver Commitments) which have more than three different maturity dates. Any Specified Refinancing Debt may provide for the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrowers, or the provision to the Borrowers of Swingline Loans, pursuant to any revolving commitments established thereby, in each case on terms substantially equivalent to the terms applicable to Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans thereunder.

(e) The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of any Specified Refinancing Debt. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Specified Refinancing Debt, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Specified Refinancing Debt incurred pursuant thereto (including the addition of such Specified Refinancing Debt as a separate tranche hereunder and its being treated in a manner consistent with the Revolver Loans, including, without limitation, for purposes of mandatory prepayments and voting, and availability of Borrowings under both the existing Revolver Commitments and Specified Refinancing Debt being based upon the Borrowing Base). Any joinder or amendment in respect of Specified Refinancing Debt may, without the consent of any Person

other than the Borrowers, the Agent and the Lenders providing such Specified Refinancing Debt, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.1.8. In addition, if so provided in the relevant Specified Refinancing Debt documentation and with the consent of each Issuing Bank, participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the Revolver Termination Date shall be reallocated from the Lenders holding Revolver Commitments to the Lenders holding extended revolving commitments in accordance with the terms of such Specified Refinancing Debt; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding Revolver Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including, without limitation, the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly.

2.1.9 Extension Offers.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by the Borrowers to all Lenders of Revolver Commitments with a like maturity date on a Pro Rata basis and on the same terms to each such Lender, the Borrowers are hereby permitted to consummate from time to time transactions with individual Lenders that accept the terms contained in such Extension Offers to extend the maturity date of each such Lender’s Revolver Commitments (provided each such extension shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any Revolver Loan and any related Revolver Commitments) and otherwise modify the terms of such Revolver Commitments pursuant to the terms of the relevant Extension Offer (including, without limitation, by increasing the interest rate or fees payable in respect of such Revolver Commitments (and related outstandings)) (each, an “Extension”, and each group of Revolver Commitments, as applicable, in each case as so extended, as well as the original Revolver Commitments (in each case not so extended), being a “tranche”; any Extended Revolver Commitments shall constitute a separate tranche of Revolver Commitments from the tranche of Revolver Commitments from which they were converted), so long as the following terms are satisfied: (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time the offering document in respect of an Extension Offer is delivered to the Lenders, (ii) except as to interest rates, fees and final maturity (which shall be determined by the Borrowers and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Revolver Commitment of any Lender that agrees to an Extension (an “Extending Revolving Lender”) with respect to all or a portion of such Revolver Commitment extended (an “Extended Revolving Commitment”), and the related outstandings (“Extended Revolving Loans”), shall be a Revolver Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with the same terms as the original Revolver Commitments (and related outstandings); provided that (1) the Borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Commitments (and related

outstandings), (B) repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extending Revolver Commitments and (C) repayments made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments) of Revolver Loans with respect to Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolver Commitments, (2) subject to the provisions of Sections 2.1.10 and 2.2.3 to the extent dealing with Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit which mature or expire after a maturity date when there exists Extended Revolving Commitments with a longer maturity date, all Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit shall be participated on a Pro Rata basis by all Lenders with Revolver Commitments in accordance with their percentage of the Revolver Commitments (and except as provided in Sections 2.1.10 and 2.2.3, without giving effect to changes thereto on an earlier maturity date with respect to Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit theretofore incurred or issued), (3) the permanent repayment of Revolver Loans with respect to, and termination of, Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a Pro Rata basis with all other Revolver Commitments, except that the Borrowers shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such tranche of Revolver Commitments on a better than Pro Rata basis as compared to any other tranche of Revolver Commitments with a later maturity date than such tranche of Revolver Commitments (4) assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Commitments and extend Revolver Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Revolver Commitments and Revolver Loans and (5) at no time shall there be Revolver Commitments hereunder (including Extended Revolving Commitments, commitments under a Specified Refinancing Facility and any original Revolver Commitments) which have more than three different maturity dates, (iii) if the aggregate principal of Revolver Commitments in respect of which Lenders shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of the Revolver Commitments, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the Borrowers pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the Revolver Commitments, as the case may be, of such Lenders shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Lenders have accepted such Extension Offer, (iv) all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing and (v) any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrowers.

(b) With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.1.9, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Sections 5.2, 5.4, 10.3 and 11.5 and (ii) an Extension Offer is required to be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000; provided that the Borrowers may at their election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Extension that a greater minimum amount of Revolver Commitments of any or all applicable tranches be tendered. The Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.1.9 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Revolving Commitments on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension

Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 5.2 , 5.4, 10.3 and 11.5) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.1.9.

(c) No consent of any Lender or the Agent shall be required to effectuate any Extension, other than the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to one or more of its Revolver Commitments (or a portion thereof). All Extended Revolving Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Secured Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with all other applicable Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrowers as may be necessary in order to establish new tranches or sub-tranches in respect of the Revolver Commitments so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Agent and the Borrowers in connection with the establishment of such new tranches or sub-tranches, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.1.9. In addition, if so provided in such amendment, participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the Revolver Termination Date shall be re-allocated from the Lenders holding Revolver Commitments to the Lenders holding Extended Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms of such amendment; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding Revolver Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such Extended Revolver Commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including, without limitation, the fees applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extensions the respective Obligors shall (at their expense) amend (and the Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the then latest applicable Revolver Termination Date so that such maturity date is extended to the then applicable Revolver Termination Date.

(d) In connection with any Extension, the Borrowers shall provide the Agent at least 10 Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Agent in its reasonable discretion) prior written notice thereof.

2.1.10 Provisions Related to Revolver Commitment Increases and Extended Revolving Commitments with Respect to Swingline Loans. If the maturity date in respect of any tranche of Revolver Commitments occurs at a time when another tranche or tranches of Revolver Commitments is or are in effect with a longer maturity date, then on the earliest occurring maturity date all then outstanding Swingline Loans shall be repaid in full on such date (and there shall be no adjustment to the participations in such Swingline Loans as a result of the occurrence of such maturity date); provided, however, that if on the occurrence of such earliest maturity date (after giving effect to any repayments of Revolver Loans and any reallocation of Letter of Credit participations as contemplated in Section 2.2.2), there shall exist sufficient unutilized Extended Revolving Commitments or Revolver Commitment Increases so that the respective outstanding Swingline Loans could be incurred pursuant the Extended Revolving Commitments or Revolver Commitment Increases which will remain in effect after the occurrence of such maturity date, then there shall be an automatic adjustment on such date of the participations in such Swingline Loans and the same shall be deemed to have been incurred solely pursuant to the relevant Extended Revolver Commitments or Revolver Commitment Increases, and such Swingline Loans shall not be so required to be repaid in full on such earliest maturity date.

2.1.11 Adjustment of Revolver Commitments.

(a) The Borrowers may, by written notice to the Agent, request that the Agent and the Lenders increase or decrease the U.S. Revolver Sublimit (a “U.S. Revolver Commitment Adjustment”), which request shall be granted provided that each of the following conditions are satisfied:

(i) only three U.S. Revolver Commitment Adjustments may be made in any Fiscal Year (such adjustment to be made within 30 days of the delivery of the information contemplated by Section 9.1.2(b) and a Borrowing Base Certificate contemplated by Section 7.1, in each case, for the most recently ended month), (ii) the written request for a U.S. Revolver Commitment Adjustment must be received by the Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) of the effectiveness of such U.S. Revolver Commitment Adjustment (such date of effectiveness, the “Commitment Adjustment Date”), (iii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the date of such request or both immediately before and after giving effect thereto as of the Commitment Adjustment Date, (iv) any increase in the U.S. Revolver Sublimit shall result in a Dollar-for-Dollar decrease in the Canadian Revolver Sublimit pursuant to this Section 2.1.11, and any decrease in the U.S. Revolver Sublimit pursuant to this Section 2.1.11 shall result in a Dollar-for-Dollar increase in the Canadian Revolver Sublimit, (v) in no event shall the U.S. Revolver Commitments and the Canadian Revolver Commitments, collectively exceed $100,000,000 (or such greater amount resulting from the provisions of Section 2.1.4), (vi) in no event shall the Canadian Revolver Sublimit exceed $50,000,000 pursuant to this Section 2.1.11, (vii) no U.S. Revolver Commitment Adjustment shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto, an Overadvance would exist, and (viii) the Agent shall have received a

certificate of the Lead Borrower dated as of the Commitment Adjustment Date certifying the satisfaction of all such conditions (including calculations thereof in reasonable detail) and otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. Any such U.S. Revolver Commitment Adjustment shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or a multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and shall concurrently increase or reduce, as applicable, (1) the aggregate Revolver Commitments available for use under the U.S. Sub-Facility Pro Rata among the Lenders and (2) the aggregate Revolver Commitments available for use under the Canadian Sub-Facility then in effect Pro Rata among the Lenders. After giving effect to any U.S. Revolver Commitment Adjustment, the Revolver Commitment available for use under the U.S. Sub-Facility or Canadian Sub-Facility, as applicable, of each Lender (and the percentage of each U.S. Revolver Loan or Canadian Revolver Loan, as applicable) that each participant must purchase a participation in) shall be equal to such Lender’s (or participant’s) Pro Rata share of the U.S. Sub-Facility or Canadian Sub-Facility, as applicable.

(b) The Agent shall promptly inform the Lenders of any request for a U.S. Revolver Commitment Adjustment made by the Borrowers. If the conditions set forth in clause (a) above are not satisfied on the applicable Commitment Adjustment Date (or, to the extent such conditions relate to an earlier date, such earlier date), the Agent shall notify the Lead Borrower in writing that the requested

U.S. Revolver Commitment Adjustment will not be effectuated; provided, however, that the Agent shall in all cases be entitled to rely (without liability) on the certificate delivered by the Lead Borrower pursuant to clause (a) (vii) immediately above in making its determination as to the satisfaction of such conditions. On each Commitment Adjustment Date, the Agent shall notify the Lenders and the Lead Borrower, on or before 2:00 p.m. (New York time), by telecopier, e-mail or telex, of the occurrence of the U.S. Revolver Commitment Adjustment to be effected on such Commitment Adjustment Date, the amount of Revolving Loans held by each Lender as a result thereof, the amount of the Revolver Commitment of each Lender available for use under the U.S. Sub-Facility and the amount of the Revolver Commitment of each Lender available for use under the Canadian Sub-Facility (and the percentage of each Revolving Loan that each participant must purchase a participation interest in) as a result thereof.

2.2 Letter of Credit Facility.

2.2.1 Issuance of Letters of Credit. On and after the Third Restatement Date, (i) the Existing U.S. Letters of Credit shall constitute U.S. Letters of Credit under this Agreement and shall, to the extent such Existing U.S. Letters of Credit remain outstanding, reduce the maximum aggregate principal amount of Letters of Credit permitted to be issued from time to time pursuant to clause (A) below, (ii) the Existing Canadian Letters of Credit shall constitute Canadian Letters of Credit under this Agreement and shall, to the extent such Existing Canadian Letters of Credit remain outstanding, reduce the maximum aggregate principal amount of Letters of Credit permitted to be issued from time to time pursuant to clause (B) below and (iii) the Existing German Letters of Credit shall constitute German Letters of Credit under this Agreement and shall, to the extent such Existing German Letters of Credit remain outstanding, reduce the maximum aggregate principal amount of Letters of Credit permitted to be issued from time to time pursuant to clause (C) below. At any time on or after the Third Restatement Date, the Issuing Banks may (A) issue Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or in one or more Alternative Currencies for the account of any U.S. Borrower or any of the U.S. Borrowers’ Subsidiaries totaling up to a maximum of $40,000,000 in aggregate principal amount, (B) issue Letters of Credit dominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollarsin one or more Alternative Currencies for the account of the Canadian Borrower or any of the Lead Borrower’s Subsidiaries totaling up to a maximum of $10,000,000 in aggregate principal amount and (C) issue Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or Eurosin one or more Alternative Currencies for the account of any German Obligor or any German Obligor’s Subsidiaries totaling up to a maximum of $15,000,000, in each case from time to time until 30 days prior to the Revolver Termination Date (or until the Commitment Termination Date, if earlier), on the terms set forth herein, including the following:

(a) Each Borrower acknowledges that the Issuing Bank’s issuance of any Letter of Credit is conditioned upon the Issuing Bank’s receipt of a LC Application with respect to the requested Letter of Credit, as well as such other instruments and agreements as the Issuing Bank may customarily require for issuance of a letter of credit of similar type and amount. The Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit unless (i) the Issuing Bank receives a LC Request and LC Application at least 3 Business Days (or shorter period of time as may be agreed by the Agent in its reasonable discretion) prior to the requested date of issuance; and (ii) each LC Condition is satisfied. If, in sufficient time to act, the Issuing Bank receives written

notice from Required Lenders that a LC Condition has not been satisfied, the Issuing Bank shall not issue the requested Letter of Credit. Prior to receipt of any such notice, the Issuing Bank shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any failure of LC Conditions. In the event that a reallocation of the Fronting Exposure with respect to LC Obligations of a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 4.2.1 does not fully cover the Fronting Exposure with respect to LC Obligations of such Defaulting Lender and such Defaulting Lender has not Cash Collateralized its obligations or otherwise made arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank, the applicable Issuing Bank may require the applicable Borrowers to Cash Collateralize such remaining Fronting Exposure in respect of each outstanding Letter of Credit and will have no obligation to issue new Letters of Credit, or to extend, renew or amend existing Letters of Credit to the extent the Fronting Exposure with respect to LC Obligations would exceed the commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders, unless such remaining Fronting Exposure with respect to LC Obligations is Cash Collateralized.

(b) Letters of Credit may be requested by a Borrower to support obligations incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business, to backstop or replace Existing Letters of Credit through the issuance of new Letters of Credit for the account of the issuers of such Existing Letters of Credit (including, by “grandfathering” such Existing Letters of Credit in this Agreement), for any purpose permitted under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or as otherwise approved by the Agent. The renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit shall be treated as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit, except that delivery of a new LC Application may be required or waived at the discretion of the Issuing Bank.

(c) The applicable Borrowers assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuses of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary. In connection with issuance of any Letter of Credit, none of the Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender shall be responsible for the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods purported to be represented by any LC Documents; any differences or variation in the character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods from that expressed in any LC Documents; the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any LC Documents or of any endorsements thereon; the time, place, manner or order in which shipment of goods is made; partial or incomplete shipment of, or failure to ship, any goods referred to in a Letter of Credit or LC Documents; any deviation from instructions, delay, default or fraud by any shipper or other

Person in connection with any goods, shipment or delivery; any breach of contract between a shipper or vendor and a Borrower; errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, telecopy, e-mail, telephone or otherwise; errors in interpretation of technical terms; the misapplication by a beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof; or any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank, the Agent or any Lender, including any act or omission of a Governmental Authority. The Issuing Bank shall be fully subrogated to the rights and remedies of each beneficiary whose claims against the Borrowers are discharged with proceeds of any Letter of Credit.

(d) In connection with its administration of and enforcement of rights or remedies under any Letters of Credit or LC Documents, the Issuing Bank shall be entitled to act, and shall be fully protected in acting, upon any certification, documentation or communication in whatever form believed by the Issuing Bank, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by a proper Person. The Issuing Bank may consult with and employ legal counsel, accountants and other experts to advise it concerning its obligations, rights and remedies, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by such experts. The Issuing Bank may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection with any matter relating to Letters of Credit or LC Documents.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.2.1, the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages) suffered by the Borrowers that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise reasonable care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof, that are the result of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the apart of the applicable Issuing Bank.

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, (a) no LC Documents shall (i) contain any representations and warranties, covenants or events of default not set forth in this Agreement and any representations and warranties, covenants and events of default shall be subject to the same qualifiers, exceptions and exclusions as those set forth in this Agreement or (ii) provide for any collateral security or Liens and (b) to the extent any of the foregoing provisions are contained therein and not contained herein, then such provisions shall be rendered null and void and any such qualifiers, exceptions and exclusions contained herein shall be deemed incorporated therein, mutatis mutandis.

Unless the Lead Borrower notifies the Agent that it intends to reimburse the Issuing Bank for a drawing under a U.S. Letter of Credit, whether or not the Lead Borrower submits a Notice of Borrowing, the Lead Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of U.S. Base Rate Loans in the applicable currencyDollars in an amount necessary to pay all amounts due Issuing Bank on any Reimbursement Date and each Applicable Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing whether or not the Revolver Commitments have terminated, a U.S. Overadvance exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in Section 6.2 are satisfied.

(b) If the Issuing Bank honors any request for payment under a Canadian Letter of Credit, the Canadian Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Bank, by 2:00 p.m. (New York time) (or such later time as the Agent may agree) on the Reimbursement Date, the amount paid by the Issuing Bank under such Canadian Letter of Credit, together with interest at the interest rate for, in the case of Canadian Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars, Canadian Base Rate Loans or, in the case of Canadian Letters of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars, Canadian Prime Loans from the Reimbursement Date until payment by the Canadian Borrower. The obligation of the Canadian Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any payment made under a Canadian Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, irrevocable, and, subject to Section 2.2.1(e), shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any Canadian Letter of Credit or the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the Canadian Borrower may have at any time against the beneficiary. Unless the Canadian

Borrower notifies the Agent that it intends to reimburse the Issuing Bank for a drawing under a Canadian Letter of Credit, whether or not the Canadian Borrower submits a Notice of Borrowing, the Canadian Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of, in the case of Canadian Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars, Canadian Base Rate Loans or, in the case of Canadian Letters of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars, Canadian Prime Loans in an amount necessary to pay all amounts due Issuing Bank on any Reimbursement Date and each Applicable Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing whether or not the Revolver Commitments have terminated, a Canadian Overadvance exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in Section 6.2 are satisfied.

(c) If the Issuing Bank honors any request for payment under a German Letter of Credit, the applicable German Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Bank, by 2:00 p.m. London Time (GMT) (or such later time as the Agent may agree) on the Reimbursement Date, the amount paid by the Issuing Bank under such German Letter of Credit, together with interest at the interest rate for, in the case of German Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars, German Base Rate Loans or, in the case of German Letters of Credit denominated in Euros, LIBOR Loans from the Reimbursement Date until payment by the German Borrower. The obligation of such German Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any payment made under a German Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, irrevocable, and, subject to Section 2.2.1(e), shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any German Letter of Credit or the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the German Borrower may have at any time against the beneficiary. Unless such German Borrower notifies the Agent that it intends to reimburse the Issuing Bank for a drawing under a German Letter of Credit, whether or not such German Borrower submits a Notice of Borrowing, the German Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of, in the case of German Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars, German Base Rate Loans or, in the case of German Letters of Credit denominated in Euros, LIBOR Loans in an amount necessary to pay all amounts due Issuing Bank on any Reimbursement Date and each Applicable Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing whether or not the Revolver Commitments have terminated, a German Overadvance exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in Section 6.2 are satisfied.

(d) Upon the issuance of a Letter of Credit or, in the case of the Existing Letters of Credit, the Third Restatement Date, each Applicable Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from the Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided Pro Rata interest and participation in all LC Obligations relating to the Letter of Credit. If the Issuing Bank makes any payment under a Letter of Credit and the applicable Borrower or Borrowers do not reimburse such payment on the Reimbursement Date, the Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and each Applicable Lender shall promptly (within one Business Day) and unconditionally pay to the Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank, the Lender’s Pro Rata share of such payment; provided, that in no event shall any Lender be required to fund such payment to an Issuing Bank in any Alternative Currency (other than Canadian Dollars or Euros, if the applicable Letter of Credit was issued under the Canadian Sub-Facility or the German Sub-Facility, respectively).

(e) The obligation of each Applicable Lender to make payments to the Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank in connection with the Issuing Bank’s payment under a Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, not subject to any counterclaim, setoff, qualification or exception whatsoever, and shall be made in accordance with this Agreement under all circumstances, irrespective of: any lack of validity or unenforceability of any Loan Documents; any draft, certificate or other document presented under a Letter of Credit having been determined to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or the existence of any

setoff or defense that any Obligor may have with respect to any Obligations or any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency. The Issuing Bank does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by any Borrower or other Person of any obligations under any LC Documents. The Issuing Bank does not make to the Lenders any express or implied warranty, representation or guaranty with respect to the Collateral, LC Documents or any Obligor. The Issuing Bank shall not be responsible to any Lender for: any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in, or for the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any LC Documents; the validity, genuineness, enforceability, collectability, value or sufficiency of any Collateral or the perfection of any Lien therein; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Obligor.

(f) No Issuing Bank shall be liable to any Lender or other Person for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with any LC Documents except as a result of its actual gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. The Issuing Bank shall not have any liability to any Lender if the Issuing Bank refrains from any action under any Letter of Credit or LC Documents until it receives written instructions from Required Lenders.

(g) In the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than Canadian Dollars or Euros), the Lead Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Bank in such Alternative Currency, unless (A) the Issuing Bank (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will require reimbursement in Dollars in the case of reimbursement under Section 2.2.2(a), Canadian Dollars in the case of reimbursement under Section 2.2.2(b) or Euros in the case of reimbursement under Section 2.2.2(c), or (B) in the absence of any such requirement for reimbursement in Dollars, Canadian Dollars or Euros, the Lead Borrower shall have notified the Issuing Bank promptly following receipt of the notice of drawing that the Lead Borrower will reimburse such Issuing Bank in Dollars in the case of reimbursement under Section 2.2.2(a), Canadian Dollars in the case of reimbursement under Section 2.2.2(b) or Euros in the case of reimbursement under Section 2.2.2(c).

In the event that (A) a drawing denominated in an Alternative Currency is to be reimbursed in Dollars, Canadian Dollars or Euros pursuant to the third sentence of Sections 2.2.2(a), 2.2.2(b) or 2.2.2(c), respectively, and (B) the Dollar, Canadian Dollar or Euro (as applicable) amount paid by the Lead Borrower shall not be adequate on the date of that payment to purchase in accordance with normal banking procedures a sum denominated in the Alternative Currency equal to the drawing, the Lead Borrower agrees, as a separate and independent obligation, to indemnify the Issuing Bank for the loss resulting from its inability on that date to purchase the Alternative Currency in the full amount of the drawing.

2.2.3 Provisions Related to Revolver Commitment Increases and Extended Revolving Commitment with respect to Letters of Credit. If the maturity date in respect of any tranche of Revolver Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit, then (i) if one or more other tranches of Revolver Commitments in respect of which the maturity date shall not have occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Applicable Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make Revolver Loans and payments in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.2.2 under (and ratably participated in by the Applicable Lenders pursuant to) the Revolver Commitments in respect of such non-terminating tranches up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Revolver Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated)) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to immediately preceding clause (i), the applicable Borrower or Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize any such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.2.4. Commencing with the maturity date of any tranche of Revolver Commitments, the applicable sublimit for Letters of Credit shall be agreed with the Lenders under the extended tranches.

2.2.4 Cash Collateral. Except as otherwise provided herein, if any LC Obligations, whether or not then due or payable, shall for any reason be outstanding at any time (a) that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) that the applicable Available Credit is less than zero, (c) after the Commitment Termination Date, or (d) within 5 Business Days prior to the Revolver Termination Date, then the applicable Borrower or Borrowers shall, at the Issuing Bank’s or the Agent’s request, Cash Collateralize the stated amount of all applicable outstanding Letters of Credit and pay to the Issuing Bank the amount of all other applicable LC Obligations. If the applicable Borrower or Borrowers fail to provide any Cash Collateral as required hereunder, the Agent may (and shall upon direction of Required Lenders) advance, as Revolver Loans, the amount of the Cash Collateral required (whether or not the applicable Revolver Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section

6.2 are satisfied).

2.2.5 Resignation or Removal of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may resign at any time upon at least 30 days prior notice to the Agent and the Lead Borrower. Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Lead Borrower, the Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. On the effective date of such resignation or replacement, the Issuing Bank shall have no further obligation to issue, amend, renew, extend or otherwise modify any Letter of Credit, but shall continue to have all rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank hereunder, including under Sections 2.2, 11.6 and 14.2, relating to any Letter of Credit issued prior to such date. The Agent shall promptly appoint a replacement Issuing Bank, which, as long as no Event of Default under Sections 10.1(a) and 10.1(h) (with respect to the Lead Borrower, the Canadian Borrower or a German Borrower, as applicable, only) has occurred and is continuing, shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrowers.

(v) if a B/A Equivalent Loan, at the Canadian B/A Rate for the applicable Contract Period, plus the Applicable Margin; (vi) if a German Base Rate Loan, at the applicable German Base Rate in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin; (vii) if any other U.S. Obligation (including, to the extent permitted by law, interest not paid when due), at the applicable U.S. Base Rate (which shall be the U.S. Base Rate applicable to U.S. Revolver Loans that are U.S. Base Rate Loans if no obvious rate applies) in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin for U.S. Base Rate Loans; (viii) if any other Canadian Obligation (including, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, interest not paid when due), at the applicable Canadian Prime Rate (which shall be the Canadian Prime Rate applicable to Canadian Revolver Loans that are Canadian Prime Loans if no obvious rate applies) in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin for Canadian Prime Loans and (ix) if any other German Obligation (including, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, interest not paid when due), at the applicable German Base Rate (which shall be the German Base Rate applicable to German Revolver Loans that are German Base Rate Loans if no obvious rate applies) in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin for German Base Rate Loans. Interest shall accrue from the date the Revolver Loan is advanced or the Obligation is incurred or due and payable, until paid by the applicable Borrower or Borrowers.

(b) At any time when a payment of principal, interest or fees hereunder is not made when due, such overdue principal, interest or fees shall bear interest at the Default Rate. Each Borrower acknowledges that the cost and expense to the Agent and the Lenders due to an Event of Default are difficult to ascertain and that the Default Rate is a fair and reasonable estimate to compensate the Agent and the Lenders for such cost and expense.

(c) Interest accrued on the Revolver Loans shall be due and payable in arrears, (i) for Revolver Loans accruing interest at LIBOR, at the end of each Interest Period applicable thereto, and, for Interest Periods of greater than 3 months, on the first day of each Fiscal Quarter; (ii) for Revolver Loans accruing interest at the U.S. Base Rate, the Canadian Base Rate, the Canadian Prime Rate, or the German Base Rate on the first day of each Fiscal Quarter; (iii) for B/A Equivalent Loans, at the end of each Contract Period applicable thereto, and, for Contract Periods of greater than 3 months, on the first day of each Fiscal Quarter, (iv) on any date of prepayment pursuant to Section 5.2, with respect to the principal amount of Revolver Loans being prepaid; and (v) on the Commitment Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest accrued at the Default Rate shall be due and payable on demand.

(d) In the event that any Borrowing Base Certificate or related information for any period delivered pursuant to Section 7.1 is inaccurate while the Revolver Commitments are in effect, and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin for such period than the Applicable Margin actually used to determine interest rates for such period, then (a) the Borrowers shall promptly deliver to the Agent a corrected Borrowing Base Certificate for such period,

(b) the Applicable Margin for such period shall be retroactively determined based on the Average Availability as set forth in the corrected Borrowing Base Certificate, and (c) the Borrowers shall promptly pay to the Agent (for the account of the Lenders during such period or their successors and

permitted assigns) the accrued additional interest owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such period. This Section 3.1.1(d) shall not limit the rights of the Agent under this Section 3.1.1 or Section 10.

3.1.2 Application of LIBOR and the Canadian B/A Rate to Outstanding Loans; Conversions of LIBOR Loans and B/A Equivalent Loans.

(a) The Borrowers may on any Business Day, subject to delivery of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, elect to convert any portion of the U.S. Base Rate Loans, Canadian Base Rate Loans or German Base Rate Loans to, or to continue any LIBOR Loan at the end of its Interest Period as, a LIBOR Loan. The Canadian Borrower may on any Business Day, subject to delivery of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, elect to convert any portion of the Canadian Prime Loans to, or to continue any B/A Equivalent Loan at the end of its Contract Period as, a B/A Equivalent Loan. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Agent may (and shall at the direction of Required Lenders) declare that no Revolver Loan may be made, converted or continued as a LIBOR Loan or a B/A Equivalent Loan.

(b) Whenever the Borrowers desire to convert or continue Revolver Loans as LIBOR Loans or B/A Equivalent Loans, the Lead Borrower (in the case of Loans to a U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower) or the German Lead Borrower (in the case of Loans to a German Borrower) shall give the Agent a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) (or in the case of Loans to a German Borrower, no later than 2:00 p.m. London Time (GMT) or, in either case, such later time as the Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) at least three Business Days before the requested conversion or continuation date. Promptly after receiving any such notice, the Agent shall notify each Lender thereof. Each Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall be irrevocable, and shall specify the amount of Revolver Loans to be converted or continued, the conversion or continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), and the duration of the Interest Period or Contract

Period, as applicable (which shall be deemed to be one month if not specified). If, upon the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of any LIBOR Loans or Contract Period in respect of any B/A Equivalent Loans, the Lead Borrower or German Lead Borrower, as applicable, shall have failed to deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, it shall be deemed to have elected to convert such LIBOR Loans into U.S. Base Rate Loans, Canadian Base Rate Loans or German Base Rate Loans, as applicable and such B/A Equivalent Loans into Canadian Prime Loans.

3.1.3 Interest Periods and Contract Periods. In connection with the making, conversion or continuation of (a) any LIBOR Loans, the Lead Borrower (in the case of Loans to a U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower) or the German Lead Borrower (in the case of Loans to a German Borrower) shall select an interest period (“Interest Period”) to apply, which interest period shall be one, two, three or six months and (b) any B/A Equivalent Loans, the Canadian Borrower shall select a Contract Period to apply, which Contract Period shall be one, two, three or six months; provided, however, that:

(a) the Interest Period or Contract Period shall commence on the date the Revolver Loan, is made or continued as, or converted into, a LIBOR Loan or a B/A Equivalent Loan, as applicable, and shall expire on the numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at its end;

(b) if any Interest Period or Contract Period commences on a day for which there is no corresponding day in the calendar month at its end or if such corresponding day falls after the last Business Day of such month, then the Interest Period or Contract Period shall expire on the last Business Day of such month; and if any Interest Period or Contract Period would expire on a day that is not a Business Day, the period shall expire on the next Business Day; and

3.2 Fees.

3.2.1 Unused Line Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to the Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of the Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender), a fee equal to the Unused Line Fee Rate multiplied by the amount by which the Revolver Commitments (other than Revolver Commitments of a Defaulting Lender) exceed the average daily balance of outstanding Revolver Loans (other than Swingline Loans) and stated amount of outstanding Letters of Credit during any Fiscal Quarter (such fee, the “Unused Line Fee”). Such fee shall be payable in arrears, on the first day of each Fiscal Quarter.

3.2.2 LC Facility Fees. (a) The U.S. Borrowers shall pay to the Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of the Applicable Lenders, a fee equal to the Applicable Margin in effect for LIBOR Loans times the average daily stated amount of outstanding U.S. Letters of Credit,

which fee shall be payable in arrears, on the first day of each Fiscal Quarter; (b) the Canadian Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of the Applicable Lenders, a fee equal to the Applicable Margin in effect for LIBOR Loans times the average daily stated amount of outstanding Canadian Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars, which fee shall be payable in arrears, on the first day of each Fiscal Quarter; (c) the Canadian Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of the Applicable Lenders, a fee equal to the Applicable Margin in effect for B/A Equivalent Loans times the average daily stated amount of outstanding Canadian Letters of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars, which fee shall be payable in arrears, on the first day of each Fiscal Quarter; (d) the German Borrowers shall pay to the Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of the Applicable Lenders, a fee equal to the Applicable Margin in effect for LIBOR Loans times the average daily stated amount of outstanding German Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars, which fee shall be payable in arrears, on the first day of each Fiscal Quarter; (e) the German Borrowers shall pay to the Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of the Applicable Lenders, a fee equal to the Applicable Margin in effect for LIBOR Loans times the average daily stated amount of outstanding German Letters of Credit denominated in Euros, which fee shall be payable in arrears, on the first day of each Fiscal Quarter; (f) the applicable Borrowers shall pay to the applicable Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee not in excess of 0.125% per annum of the stated amount of each Letter of Credit, which fee shall be payable in arrears, on the first day of each Fiscal Quarter; and (g) the applicable Borrowers shall pay to the applicable Issuing Bank, for its own account, all customary charges associated with the issuance, registration, amending, negotiating, payment, processing, transfer and administration of Letters of Credit, which charges shall be paid as and when incurred upon demand.

3.2.3 Other Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to the Lenders and the Agent, for their own accounts, the fees described in the Fee Letters.

3.3 Computation of Interest, Fees, Yield Protection. All interest, as well as fees and other charges calculated on a per annum basis, shall be computed for the actual days elapsed, based on a year of 360 days for LIBOR Loans and German Base Rate Loans and 365 days for U.S. Base Rate Loans, Canadian Base Rate Loans, B/A Equivalent Loans and Canadian Prime Loans. Each determination by the Agent of any interest, fees or interest rate hereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest or demonstrable error. All fees shall be fully earned when due and payable and shall not be subject to rebate, refund or proration.

3.4 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund LIBOR Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon LIBOR or the Canadian B/A Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market or to transact in bankers’ acceptances in the Canadian interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue LIBOR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans or to make or continue B/A Equivalent Loans or to convert Canadian Prime Loans to B/A Equivalent Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon delivery of such notice, the applicable Borrowers shall prepay or, if applicable, convert all LIBOR Loans of such Lender to U.S. Base Rate Loans, Canadian Base Rate Loans or German Base Rate Loans, as applicable, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. Upon delivery of such notice, the Canadian Borrower shall prepay or, if applicable, convert all B/A Equivalent Loans of such Lender to Canadian Prime Loans, either on the last day of the Contract Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such B/A Equivalent Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such B/A Equivalent Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Canadian Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

3.5 Inability to Determine Rates. If Required Lenders notify the Agent for any reason in connection with a request for a Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, a LIBOR Loan that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank

Eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such LIBOR Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining LIBOR for the requested Interest Period, or (c) LIBOR for the requested Interest Period does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such LIBOR Loan, then the Agent will promptly so notify the Lead Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until the Agent (upon instruction by Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Lead Borrower, the Canadian Borrower or the German Lead Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of a LIBOR Loan or, failing that, will be deemed to have submitted a request for a U.S. Base Rate Loan, a Canadian Base Rate Loan or a German Base Rate Loan, as applicable.

If Required Lenders notify the Agent for any reason in connection with a request for a Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, a B/A Equivalent Loan that (a) bankers’ acceptances are not being offered to banks in the Canadian interbank bankers’ acceptances market for the applicable amount and Contract Period of such B/A Equivalent Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Canadian B/A Rate for the requested Contract Period, or (c) the Canadian B/A Rate for the requested Contract Period does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such B/A Equivalent Loan, then the Agent will promptly so notify the Lead Borrower, the Canadian Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Applicable Lenders to make or maintain B/A Equivalent Loans shall be suspended until the Agent (upon instruction by Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Lead Borrower or the Canadian Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of a B/A Equivalent Loan or, failing that, will be deemed to have submitted a request for a Canadian Prime Loan.

3.6 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.

3.6.1 Change in Law. If any Change in Law shall:

(a) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in LIBOR) or the Issuing Bank;

(b) subject any Lender or Issuing Bank to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes indemnified by Section 5.8 and (B) any Excluded Taxes); or

(c) impose on any Lender, the Issuing Bank or interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting any Revolver Loan, Loan Document, Specified Refinancing Debt, Letter of Credit, participation in LC Obligations, or Revolver Commitment;

and the result thereof shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Revolver Loan or Revolver Commitment, or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or the Issuing Bank, the applicable Borrowers will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Canadian Borrower and each German Borrower shall only be liable for such increased cost or reduction in

amount to the extent that it relates to the Canadian Obligations and the German Obligations of such German Borrower, respectively.

3.6.2 Capital Adequacy. If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s, the Issuing Bank’s or holding company’s capital or liquidity as a consequence of this Agreement, or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s Revolver Commitments, Revolver Loans, Letters of Credit or participations in LC Obligations, to a level below that which such Lender, the Issuing Bank or holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s, the Issuing Bank’s and holding company’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time the applicable Borrowers will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it or its holding company for any such reduction suffered. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Canadian Borrower and each German Borrower shall only be liable for such additional amounts to the extent that they relate to the Canadian Obligations and the German Obligations of such German Borrower, respectively.

3.6.3 Compensation. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of its right to demand such compensation, but the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that the Lender or the Issuing Bank notifies the Lead Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

3.7 Mitigation. If any Lender gives a notice under Section 3.5 or requests compensation under Section 3.6, or if the Borrowers are required to pay additional amounts with respect to a Lender under Section 5.8, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if such designation or assignment (a) would eliminate the need for such notice or reduce amounts payable or to be withheld in the future, as applicable; and (b) in the judgment of such Lender would not subject the Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to it or unlawful. Borrowers shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

3.8 Funding Losses. If for any reason (other than default by the Agent or a Lender, or as a result of the circumstances described in Section 3.4 or 3.5) (a) any Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, a LIBOR Loan or a B/A Equivalent Loan does not occur on the date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn), (b) any repayment or conversion of a LIBOR Loan or a B/A Equivalent Loan occurs on a day other than the end of its Interest Period or Contract Period, as applicable, (c) the Borrowers fail to repay a LIBOR Loan when required hereunder or the Canadian Borrower fails to repay a B/A Equivalent Loan when required hereunder, or

(d) a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) is required to assign a LIBOR Loan or a B/A Equivalent Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period or Contract Period, as applicable pursuant to Section 12.4, then the applicable Borrowers or Borrower shall pay to the Agent its customary administrative charge and to each Lender resulting losses and expenses arising from liquidation or redeployment of funds or from fees payable to terminate deposits of matching funds.

3.9 Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of interest permitted by Applicable Law, or that would result in the receipt by any Lender or “interest” at a “criminal rate” as such terms

are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada) (“maximum rate”). If the Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the maximum rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Obligations or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrowers. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by the Agent or a Lender exceeds the maximum rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest; (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

3.10 Canadian Interest Act. For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), (i) whenever any interest under this Agreement is calculated using a rate based on a year of 360 days or any other period of time that is less than a calendar year, the rate determined pursuant to such calculation, when expressed as an annual rate, is equivalent to (x) the applicable rate based on the number of days in the calendar year, (y) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for which such interest is payable (or compounded) ends, and (z) divided by 360, or such other period of time that is less than the calendar year, (ii) the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement, and (iii) the rates of interest stipulated in this Agreement are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.

3.11 Survival. The payment obligations set forth in this Section 3, in each case solely for the periods set forth therein, if applicable, shall survive termination of the Revolver Commitments and/or this Agreement, repayment of all other Obligations and any resignation of the Agent, the Swingline Lender or any Issuing Bank.

SECTION 4. LOAN ADMINISTRATION

4.1 Manner of Borrowing and Funding of Revolver Loans.

4.1.1 Notice of Borrowing. Whenever the Borrowers desire funding of a Borrowing of Revolver Loans, the Lead Borrower (in the case of Loans to a U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower) or the German Lead Borrower (in the case of Loans to a German Borrower) shall give the Agent a Notice of Borrowing. Such notice must be received by the Agent (x) in the case of a Notice of Borrowing requesting Canadian Revolver Loans, no later than 12:00 p.m. (or such other time as the Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) (New York City time), (y) in the case of a Notice of Borrowing requesting U.S. Revolver Loans, no later than 2:00 p.m. (or such other time as the Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) (New York City time), or (z) in the case of a Notice of Borrowing requesting German Revolver Loans, no later than 11:00 a.m. (or such other time as the Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) (London Time (GMT)), in each case (i) on the Business Day of the requested funding date, in the case of U.S. Base Rate Loans, Canadian Base Rate Loans, German Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Loans, and (ii) at least three Business Days prior to the requested funding date, in the case of LIBOR Loans or B/A Equivalent Loans. Notices received after 12:00 p.m. (or such other time as the Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) (New York City time), or in the case of a Notice of Borrowing requesting German Revolver Loans, 11:00 a.m. (or such other time as the Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) (London Time (GMT)), shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) the amount of the Borrowing, (B) the requested funding date (which must be a Business Day), (C) whether such Borrowing will be made as a U.S. Revolver Loan, a Canadian

Revolver Loan or a German Revolver Loan, (D) whether the Borrowing is to be made as U.S. Base Rate Loans, Canadian Base Rate Loans, German Base Rate Loans, Canadian Prime Loans, LIBOR Loans or B/A Equivalent Loans, (E) in the case of LIBOR Loans, the duration of the applicable Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be one month if not specified), (F) in the case of B/A Equivalent Loans, the duration of the applicable Contract Period (which shall be deemed to be one month if not specified) and (G), in case of a Borrowing of German Revolver Loans, the applicable German Borrower.

4.1.2 Fundings by the Lenders. Each Lender shall timely honor its Revolver Commitment by funding its Pro Rata share of each Borrowing of Revolver Loans that is properly requested hereunder. Except for Borrowings to be made as Swingline Loans, the Agent shall endeavor to notify the Lenders of each Notice of Borrowing (or deemed request for a Borrowing) (i) by 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the proposed funding date for U.S. Base Rate Loans, Canadian Prime Loans, Canadian Base Rate Loans (ii) by 1:00 p.m. London Time (GMT) on the proposed funding date for German Base Rate Loans and (iii) by 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least two Business Days before any proposed funding of LIBOR Loans or B/A Equivalent Loans. Each Applicable Lender shall fund to the Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the Borrowing to the account specified by the Agent in immediately available funds not later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) (or in the case of German Base Rate Loans, 3:00 p.m. London time (GMT)) on the requested funding date. The Agent shall disburse the proceeds of the Revolver Loans as directed by the applicable Borrower. Unless the Agent shall have received (in sufficient time to act) written notice from a Lender that it does not intend to fund its Pro Rata share of a Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has deposited or promptly will deposit its share with the Agent, and the Agent may disburse a corresponding amount to the Borrowers. If a Lender’s Pro Rata share of any Borrowing or of any settlement pursuant to Section 4.1.3(b) is not received by the Agent, then the applicable Borrowers agree to repay to the Agent on demand the amount of such Pro Rata share, together with interest thereon from the date disbursed until repaid, at the rate applicable to the Borrowing.

4.1.3 Swingline Loans; Settlement.

(a) The Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, advance (i) Swingline Loans to the

U.S. Borrowers (“U.S. Swingline Loans”), up to an aggregate outstanding amount of the lesser of (A) $6,000,000 and (B) the U.S. Available Credit and (ii) Swingline Loans (acting through Bank of America (Canada)) to the Canadian Borrower (“Canadian Swingline Loans”) up to an aggregate outstanding amount not to exceed the lesser of (A) the Canadian Available Credit and (B) $5,000,000. Each U.S. Swingline Loan shall constitute a U.S. Revolver Loan for all purposes and each Canadian Swingline Loan shall constitute a Canadian Revolver Loan for all purposes, except, in each case, that payments thereon shall be made to the Agent for its own account. The obligation of the applicable Borrowers to repay Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by the records of the Agent and need not be evidenced by any promissory note. The Borrowers acknowledge that in the event that a reallocation of the Swingline Loan Fronting Exposure of a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 4.2.1 does not fully cover the applicable Swingline Loan Fronting Exposure of such Defaulting Lender, the Agent may require the applicable Borrower or Borrowers to, at its option, prepay or Cash Collateralize such remaining Fronting Exposure in respect of each outstanding Swingline Loan and will have no obligation to issue new Swingline Loans, or to extend, renew or amend existing Swingline Loans to the extent such Fronting Exposure would exceed the commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders, unless such remaining Fronting Exposure is Cash Collateralized.

(b) Settlement among the Applicable Lenders and the Agent with respect to Swingline Loans and other Revolver Loans shall take place on a date determined from time to time by the Agent (but at least weekly), in accordance with the Settlement Report delivered by the Agent to the Lenders. Between settlement dates, the Agent may in its discretion apply payments on Revolver Loans to applicable Swingline Loans, regardless of any designation by the Borrowers or any provision herein to the contrary. Each Lender’s obligation to make settlements with the Agent is absolute and unconditional, without offset, counterclaim or other defense, and whether or not the Revolver Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 6.2 are satisfied. If, due to an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to a Borrower or otherwise, any Swingline Loan may not be settled among the Lenders hereunder, then each Applicable Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from the Agent a Pro Rata participation in each unpaid applicable Swingline Loan and shall transfer the amount of such participation to the Agent, in immediately available funds, within one Business Day after the Agent’s request therefor.

4.1.4 Notices. The Borrowers may request, convert or continue Revolver Loans, select interest rates, and transfer funds based on telephonic or e-mailed instructions to the Agent. The Borrowers shall confirm each such request by prompt delivery to the Agent of a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, if applicable. Neither the Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability for any loss suffered by a Borrower as a result of the Agent or any Lender acting upon its understanding of telephonic or e-mailed instructions from a person believed in good faith by the Agent or any Lender to be a person authorized to give such instructions on a Borrower’s behalf.

4.2 Defaulting Lender.

4.2.1 Reallocation of Pro Rata Share; Amendments. For purposes of determining the Lenders’ obligations to fund or acquire participations in Revolver Loans (including, Swingline Loans) or Letters of Credit, the Agent may exclude the Revolver Commitments and Revolver Loans of any Defaulting Lender(s) from the calculation of Pro Rata shares and any Revolver Commitments or Fronting Exposure of any such Defaulting Lender shall automatically be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders Pro Rata in accordance with their Revolver Commitments up to an amount such that the Revolver Commitment of each non-Defaulting Lender does not exceed its Revolver Commitments, so long as the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation. A Defaulting Lender shall have no right to vote on any amendment, waiver or other modification of a Loan Document, except as provided in Section 14.1.1(c).

4.2.2 Payments; Fees. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of a Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 10 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.3), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a Pro Rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to any applicable Issuing Banks and Swingline Lenders hereunder; third, if so reasonably determined by the Agent or reasonably requested by the applicable Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral for the Fronting Exposure of such Defaulting Lender; fourth, to the funding of any Revolver Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Agent or the Lead Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Revolver Loans under this Agreement and to Cash Collateralize any Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or Swingline Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, any

Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Revolver Loans or LC Obligations in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Revolver Loans or LC Obligations were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Revolver Loans of, and LC Obligations owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a Pro Rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Revolver Loans of, or LC Obligations owed to, that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 4.2.2 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. A Lender shall not be entitled to receive any fees accruing hereunder during the period in which it is a Defaulting Lender, and the unfunded portion of its Revolver Commitment shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating the Unused Line Fee Rate under Section 3.2.1. To the extent any LC Obligations owing to a Defaulting Lender are reallocated to other Lenders, Letter of Credit fees attributable to such LC Obligations under Section 3.2.2 shall be paid to such other Lenders. The Agent shall be paid all Letter of Credit fees attributable to LC Obligations that are not so reallocated. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, funds received for the account of a Defaulting Lender in respect of (a) Canadian Obligations shall only be applied to the payment or settlement of Canadian Obligations, and not in respect of any

U.S. Obligations and (b) German Obligations shall only be applied to the payment or settlement of German Obligations of such German Borrower, and not in respect of any other Obligations.

4.2.3 Cure. The Borrowers, the Agent and the Issuing Bank may agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender. At such time, Pro Rata shares shall be reallocated without exclusion of such Lender’s Revolver Commitments and Revolver Loans, and all outstanding Revolver Loans, LC Obligations and other exposures under the Revolver Commitments shall be reallocated among the Lenders and settled by the Agent (with appropriate payments by the reinstated Lender) in accordance with the readjusted Pro Rata shares. Unless expressly agreed in writing by the Borrowers, the Agent and the Issuing Bank (each of which shall make such determination, in its sole discretion), no reinstatement of a Defaulting Lender shall constitute a waiver or release of claims against such Lender. The failure of any Lender to fund a Revolver Loan, to make a payment in respect of LC Obligations or otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations, and no Lender shall be responsible for default by another Lender. NoSubject to Section 14.23, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a wavier or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

4.3 Number and Amount of LIBOR Loans and B/A Equivalent Loans; Determination of Rate. Each Borrowing of LIBOR Loans when made shall be in a minimum amount of $500,000, plus any increment of $50,000 in excess thereof. No more than six (6) Borrowings of LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at any time, and all LIBOR Loans having the same length and beginning date of their Interest Periods shall be aggregated together and considered one Borrowing for this purpose. Upon determining LIBOR for any Interest Period requested by the Lead Borrower or the German Lead Borrower, as applicable, the Agent shall promptly notify the Lead Borrower or German Lead Borrower, as applicable, thereof by telephone or electronically and shall confirm any telephonic or electronic notice in writing. Each Borrowing of B/A Equivalent Loans when made shall be in a minimum amount of C$500,000, plus any increment of C$50,000 in excess thereof. No more than six (6) Borrowings of B/A Equivalent Loans may be outstanding at any time, and all B/A Equivalent Loans having the same length and beginning date of their Contract Periods shall be aggregated together and considered one Borrowing for this purpose. Upon determining the Canadian B/A Rate for any Contract Period requested by the Canadian Borrower, the Agent shall promptly notify the Canadian Borrower thereof by telephone or electronically and shall confirm any telephonic or electronic notice in writing.

4.4 Lead Borrower.

4.4.1 U.S./Canadian Borrowers. Each of the U.S. Borrowers and the Canadian Borrower hereby designates the Lead Borrower as its representative and agent for all purposes under the Loan Documents, including requests for Revolver Loans and Letters of Credit, designation of interest rates, delivery or receipt of communications, preparation and delivery of Borrowing Base and financial reports, receipt and payment of Obligations, requests for waivers, amendments or other accommodations, actions under the Loan Documents (including in respect of compliance with covenants), and all other dealings with the Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender.

The Agent and the Lenders may give any notice or communication with a U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower hereunder to the Lead Borrower on behalf of such Borrower.

Each German Borrower agrees that any notice, election, communication, representation, agreement or undertaking made on its behalf by the German Lead Borrower shall be binding upon and enforceable against it.

4.5 Effect of Termination. On the effective date of the termination of all of the Revolver Commitments, all Obligations shall be immediately due and payable. All undertakings of the Obligors contained in the Loan Documents that expressly provide for and contemplate survival of the termination of this Agreement or the termination of the Revolver Commitments (including this Section 4.5) shall survive any such termination, and the Agent shall retain its Liens in the Collateral and all of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents until Full Payment of the Obligations. The obligation of each Obligor and Lender with respect to each indemnity given by it pursuant to Sections 5.8 and 14.2 shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations for events and circumstances arising on or prior to Full Payment of the Obligations.

SECTION 5. PAYMENTS

5.1 General Payment Provisions. All payments of Obligations shall be made in the currency in which such Obligation is denominated, without offset (other than Excluded Taxes), counterclaim or defense of any kind, and in immediately available funds, not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) (or such later time as Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) (or in the case of payments from a German Borrower, no later than 2:00 p.m. London Time (GMT) or, in either case, such later time as the Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) on the due date of such Obligation. Any payment after such time shall be deemed made on the next Business Day. Any payment of a LIBOR Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period or of a B/A Equivalent Loan prior to the end of its Contract Period shall be accompanied by all amounts due under Section 3.8.

Rate Loans and then to LIBOR Loans, (ii) any prepayment of Canadian Revolver Loans denominated in Dollars shall be applied first to Canadian Base Rate Loans and then to LIBOR Loans, (iii) any prepayment of Canadian Revolver Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars shall be applied first to Canadian Prime Loans and then to B/A Equivalent Loans, (iv) any prepayment of German Revolver Loans denominated in either Dollars or Euros shall be applied first to German Base Rate Loans and then to LIBOR Loans.

5.2 Repayment of Revolver Loans.

5.2.1 Revolver Loans shall be due and payable in full on the Revolver Termination Date, unless payment is sooner required hereunder. Revolver Loans may be prepaid from time to time, without penalty or premium. If any Asset Disposition includes the disposition of Current Assets Collateral, then, if a Liquidity Event shall have occurred and be continuing, an amount equal to the Net Proceeds of such disposition shall be paid by the applicable Borrowers to be applied to the applicable Revolver Loans within ten Business Days following such Asset Disposition, other than such Net Proceeds not in excess of $1,000,000 in the aggregate, and the Borrowers shall deliver an updated Borrowing Base Certificate on the date of any such Asset Disposition.

5.2.3 Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.2 to the contrary, funds received from or held by (a) any Canadian Borrowing Base Obligor shall be applied only to the payment of the Canadian Obligations and German Obligations and shall not be applied to the payment of the U.S. Obligations, (b) any European Guarantor shall be applied only to the payment of the German Obligations and shall not be applied to the payment of the U.S. Obligations and (c) any German Borrower shall be applied only to the payment of the German Obligations of such German Borrower and shall not be applied to the payment of any other Obligations.

5.3 [Reserved].

5.4 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. Except as otherwise required by Applicable Law, neither the Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Obligor or against any Obligations. If any payment by or on behalf of the Obligors is made to the Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, or the Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender exercises a right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, interim receiver or any other Person, then to the extent of such recovery, the Obligation originally

intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies relating thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred. This Section 5.4 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

5.5 Post-Default Allocation of Payments

5.5.1 (a) Amounts. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any amounts (other than proceeds of Collateral securing only the Canadian Obligations and/or German Obligations and any proceeds realized with respect to guarantees by any Canadian Subsidiary or any European Guarantor) received on account of the Secured Obligations shall be allocated as follows:

(i) first, to all costs and expenses, including Extraordinary Expenses that are U.S. Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition), owing to the Agent pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents by the U.S. Obligors:

(ii) second, to all amounts owing to the Agent on U.S. Swingline Loans;

(iii) third, to all amounts owing to the Issuing Bank by the U.S. Obligors in respect of

U.S. Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition);

(iv) fourth, to all applicable U.S. Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition) constituting fees;

(v) fifth, to all applicable U.S. Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition) constituting interest;

(vi) sixth, to Cash Collateralization of U.S. LC Obligations;

(vii) seventh, to all other U.S. Revolver Loans, and applicable Noticed Xxxxxx constituting U.S. Secured Bank Product Obligations; provided that no amounts received from any Obligor shall be applied to any Excluded Hedging Obligations with respect to such Obligor; and

(viii) eighth, to all costs and expenses, including Extraordinary Expenses that are Canadian Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition), owing to the Agent pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents by the Canadian Obligors;

(ix) ninth, to all amounts owing to the Agent on Canadian Swingline Loans;

(x) tenth, to all amounts owing to the Issuing Bank by the Canadian Obligors in respect of Canadian Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition);

(xi) eleventh, to all applicable Canadian Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition) constituting fees;

(xii) twelfth, to all applicable Canadian Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition) constituting interest;

(xiii) thirteenth, to Cash Collateralization of Canadian LC Obligations;

(xiv) fourteenth, to all other Canadian Revolver Loans, and applicable Noticed Xxxxxx constituting Canadian Secured Bank Product Obligations; provided that no amounts received from any

Obligor shall be applied to any Excluded Hedging Obligations with respect to such Obligor;

(xv) fifteenth, to all other U.S. Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition) and, with respect to any amounts received from any Obligor, Excluded Hedging Obligations with respect to such Obligor);

(xvi) sixteenth, to all other Canadian Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition and, with respect to any amounts received from any Obligor, Excluded Hedging Obligations with respect to such Obligor);

(xvii) seventeenth, to all costs and expenses, including Extraordinary Expenses that are German Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition), owing to the Agent pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents by the German Borrowers;

(xviii) eighteenth, to all amounts owing to the Issuing Bank by the German Borrowers in respect of German Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition);

(xix) nineteenth, to all applicable German Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition) constituting fees;

(xx) twentieth, to all applicable German Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition) constituting interest;

(xxi) twenty first, to Cash Collateralization of German LC Obligations;

(xxii) twenty second, to all other German Revolver Loans, and applicable Noticed Xxxxxx constituting German Secured Bank Product Obligations; provided that no amounts received from any Obligor shall be applied to any Excluded Hedging Obligations with respect to such Obligor; and

(xxiii) twenty third, to all other German Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition and, with respect to any amounts received from any Obligor, Excluded Hedging Obligations with respect to such Obligor).

Any proceeds of Collateral securing the Canadian Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition) and proceeds realized with respect to guarantees by any Canadian Subsidiary received on account of the Secured Obligations shall be applied ratably in the order specified in clauses eighth through fourteenth and thereafter ratably in the order specified in clauses sixteenth through twenty third set forth in this paragraph (a). Any proceeds of Collateral securing the German Obligations (other than clause (f) of such definition) and proceeds realized with respect to guarantees by any European Guarantor received on account of the Secured Obligations shall be applied ratably in the order specified in clauses seventeenth through twenty third set forth in this paragraph (a).

(b) General Application Provisions. Amounts shall be applied to each category of Secured Obligations set forth above until Full Payment thereof and then to the next category. If amounts are insufficient to satisfy a category, they shall be applied on a pro rata basis among the Secured Obligations in the category. Amounts used to Cash Collateralize the

aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to any relevant clause above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Secured Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above and, if no Secured Obligations remain outstanding, to the applicable Borrower or Borrowers. Amounts distributed with respect to any Secured Bank Product Obligations shall be the lesser of the maximum Secured Bank Product Obligations last reported to the Agent or the actual Secured Bank Product Obligations as calculated by the methodology reported to the Agent for determining the amount due. The Agent shall have no obligation to calculate the amount to be distributed with respect to any Secured Bank Product Obligations, and may request a reasonably detailed calculation of such amount from the applicable Secured Party. If a Secured Party

fails to deliver such calculation within five days following request by the Agent, the Agent may assume the amount to be distributed is zero. The allocations set forth in this Section 5.5.1 are solely to determine the rights and priorities of the Agent and the Secured Parties as among themselves, and may, except as set forth in the next sentence, be changed by agreement among them without the consent of any Obligor. It is understood and agreed that (i) no Secured Bank Product Obligations (other than Noticed Xxxxxx) shall be paid pursuant to this Section ahead of any other Obligations except as set forth above,

(ii) no Cash Collateralization of LC Obligations shall be paid prior to any fees, interest, or amounts due in respect of Swingline Loans, or to the Issuing Bank or the Agent, in each case, except as set forth above, unless consented to by the Lead Borrower and (iii) amounts received from any Obligor that is not a Qualified ECP Guarantor shall not be applied to the Obligations that are Excluded Hedging Obligations and (b). If any monies remain after distribution to all of the categories above, such monies shall be returned to the applicable Borrower or Borrowers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, proceeds of Collateral consisting of assets of, or payments by, (a) a Canadian Borrowing Base Obligor or any other Excluded Subsidiary shall only be applied to the repayment of Canadian Obligations or German Obligations and (b) a German Borrower shall only be applied to the repayment of German Obligations of such German Borrower.

5.5.2 Erroneous Application. The Agent shall not be liable for any application of amounts made by it in good faith and, if any such application is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender or other Person to which such amount should have been made shall be to recover the amount from the Person that actually received it (and, if such amount was received by any Lender, such Lender hereby agrees to return it).

5.6 Application of Payments in the Dominion Accounts. Upon delivery of a written notice to the Lead Borrower from the Agent that specifies that “cash dominion” is being instituted, the ledger balance in any Dominion Account as of the end of a Business Day shall be applied to reduce the outstanding Secured Obligations at the beginning of the next Business Day during any Liquidity Period. Any such application of funds shall be made (i) from the Dominion Account of the U.S. Obligors first in respect of

U.S. Obligations, to the outstanding amounts thereof, and second in respect of the Canadian Obligations and (ii) from the Dominion Account of the Canadian Borrowing Base Obligors solely in respect of Canadian Obligations. If, as a result of such application, a credit balance exists, the balance shall accrue interest in favor of the Obligors and shall be made available to the Obligors as long as no Event of Default is continuing. During a Liquidity Period, each Obligor irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any payments or Collateral proceeds in the applicable Dominion Account or any Deposit Account subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement, and agrees that the Agent shall have the continuing, exclusive right to apply and reapply the same against the outstanding Secured Obligations, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, funds received from or held by (a) any Canadian Borrowing Base Obligor or any other Excluded Subsidiary shall be applied only to the payment of the Canadian Obligations or the German Obligations and (b) a German Borrower shall only be applied to the repayment of German Obligations of such German Borrower and, in each case, shall not be applied to the payment of the U.S. Obligations.

5.7 Loan Account; Account Stated.

5.7.1 Loan Account. The Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual and customary practices an account or accounts (“Loan Account”) evidencing the Debt of the Borrowers resulting from each Revolver Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit from time to time. Any failure of the Agent to record anything in the Loan Account, or any error in doing so, shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers to pay any amount owing hereunder. The Agent may maintain a single Loan Account in respect of U.S. Revolver Loans or U.S. Letters of Credit in the name of the Lead Borrower, and each Borrower confirms that such arrangement shall

have no effect on the joint and several character of its liability for the Obligations.

5.7.2 Entries Binding. Entries made in the Loan Account shall constitute presumptive evidence of the information contained therein. If any information contained in the Loan Account is provided to or inspected by any Person, then such information shall be conclusive and binding on such Person for all purposes absent manifest or demonstrable error, except to the extent such Person notifies the Agent in writing within 30 days after receipt or inspection that specific information is subject to dispute.

5.8 Taxes.

5.8.1 Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any Obligor shall be free and clear of and without reduction for any Taxes except as required by Applicable Law. If Applicable Law requires any applicable withholding agent to withhold or deduct any Tax from any such payment, then the applicable withholding agent shall make such withholdings or deductions and timely pay and remit any such Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law. If the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Obligor shall be increased as necessary so that after all required withholdings and deductions for Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including withholdings and deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.8) have been made, the Lender (or, in the case of a payment received by the Agent for its own account, the Agent) receives on the due date an amount equal to the sum it would have received if no such withholding or deduction had been made.

5.8.2 Other Taxes. Without limiting the provisions of Section 5.8.1, above, the Borrowers shall timely pay and remit all Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authorities in accordance with Applicable Law.

5.8.3 Tax Indemnifications. Without limiting the provisions of, and without duplication for amounts paid under, Section 5.8.1 and Section 5.8.2, the Lead Borrower shall indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse (within 30 days after written demand therefor) the Agent and Lenders for any Indemnified Taxes (including those attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.8) withheld or deducted by any Obligor or the Agent, or paid by the Agent or any Lender, with respect to any payment on account of any Obligations, Letters of Credit or Loan Documents, and Other Taxes, whether or not such Taxes were properly asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority (other than penalties attributable to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Agent or such Lender) and reasonable expenses relating thereto. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to Lead Borrower by the Agent, or by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If the Lead Borrower reasonably believes that the Agent or any Lender is entitled to receive a refund in

respect of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which indemnification or additional amounts have been paid to the Agent or such Lender by any Obligor pursuant to or in respect of this Section 5.8, the Lead Borrower (on behalf of itself and on behalf of the other Obligors) may notify (in writing) the Agent or such Lender of the availability of such refund. Upon receipt of such a notice, the Agent or such Lender shall promptly apply for such refund unless, in the good faith judgment of the Agent or such Lender, applying for such refund would cause the Agent or such Lender to suffer any material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage. The Lead Borrower shall reimburse the Agent or such Lender for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent or such Lender incurred in pursuing such refund. If the Agent or such Lender receives any such refund, it shall be governed by Section 5.8.5. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.8, the Obligors shall not be required to indemnify the Agent or any Lender pursuant to this Section 5.8 for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (and any related expenses) to the extent the Agent or the relevant Lender, as the case may be, fails to notify the relevant Obligor of such possible indemnification claim within 180 days after the Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives written notice from the applicable Governmental Authority of the specific tax assessment giving rise to such indemnification claim.

5.8.4 Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment or remittance of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by any Obligor to a Governmental Authority, the Lead Borrower shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment or remittance, a copy of the return reporting such payment or remittance or other evidence of payment or remittance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

5.8.5 Refunds. If the Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Obligor or with respect to which any Obligor has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.8, it shall pay to such Obligor an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Obligor under this Section 5.8 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of the Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that (i) such Obligor, upon the request of the Agent or such Lender agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Obligor (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Agent or such Lender in the event the Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority and (ii) nothing herein contained shall obligate any Lender or the Agent to make available its tax returns or disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof or require any Lender or the Agent to do anything that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other refunds, credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event will the Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to any Obligor the payment of which would place the Agent or such Lender, as applicable, in a less favorable net after tax position than the Agent or such Lender, as applicable, would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.

5.8.6 Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender,” for purposes of this Section 5.8, shall include any Swingline Lender and any Issuing Bank.

5.9 Lender Tax Information.

5.9.1 Status of the Lenders. Each Lender shall, at such times as are reasonably requested by the Agent or the Lead Borrower, provide the Agent and the Lead Borrower with any documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Agent or the Lead Borrower certifying as to any entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, any withholding Tax with respect to any payments to be made to such Lender under any Loan Document. Each such Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such documentation (including any specific documentation

required below in Section 5.9.2 or 5.9.3) obsolete, expired or inaccurate in any material respect, deliver promptly to the Agent and the Lead Borrower updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the Agent or the Lead Borrower) or promptly notify the Agent and the Lead Borrower in writing of its inability to do so.

5.9.2 Documentation. Without limiting the provisions of Section 5.9.1 above,

(a) Each Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Agent and the Lead Borrower on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement two properly completed and duly signed original copies of IRS Form W-9 (or any successor forms) certifying that such Lender is exempt from

U.S. federal backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

(b) Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Agent and the Lead Borrower, on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time upon request by the Agent or the Lead Borrower), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, (or any successor forms) claiming eligibility for the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party;

(ii) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms);

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, (A) two properly completed and duly signed certificates substantially in the form of Exhibit X-0, X-0, X-0 or D-4, as applicable (any such certificate, a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (B) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, (or any successor forms);

(iv) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Foreign Lender is a partnership or a participating Lender), two properly completed and duly signed original copies of IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Foreign Lender, accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E,

U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, Form W-9, Form W-8IMY or any other required information (or any successor forms) from each beneficial owner that would be required under this Section 5.9 if such beneficial owner were a Lender, as applicable (provided that, if the Foreign Lender is a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and not a participating Lender) and one or more beneficial owners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate may be provided by such Foreign Lender on behalf of such beneficial owner); or

(v) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming a complete exemption from, or a reduction in, U.S. federal

withholding tax on any payments to such Lender under any Loan Document.

5.9.3 If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to

U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Lead Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Lead Borrower or the Agent, such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Lead Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Lead Borrower or the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 5.9.3, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.9, a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to deliver to the Obligors and to any successor Agent any documentation provided by such Lender to the Agent pursuant to Sections 5.9.1 through 5.9.3.

5.9.4 Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender,” for purposes of this Section 5.9, shall include Agent, any Swingline Lender and any Issuing Bank.

Agent in accordance with Section 9.1.2(b) of this Agreement, and at the end of each succeeding Fiscal Quarter thereafter until the date on which Availability has exceeded the FCCR Test Amount for 30 consecutive days.

9.3.2 Notwithstanding anything to contrary in this Agreement (including Section 10), upon an Event of Default as a result of the Lead Borrower’s failure to comply with Section 9.3.1 above, such Event of Default shall, subject to the limitations set forth below, be deemed cured ab initio and cease to exist in the event that, within 10 Business Days after the date on which the Lead Borrower was required to deliver financial statements in accordance with Section 9.3.1 for the month in which such Event of Default occurs, a cash equity capital contribution is made to the Lead Borrower (or otherwise receives an equity contribution in respect of the equity issued for such Cure Actions in exchange for Equity Interests other than Disqualified Equity interests). Each such equity contribution is referred to as “Cure Action”. The proceeds of any Cure Action may be included solely in the calculation of EBITDA (solely for purposes of calculating the ratio in Section 9.3.1 above, and not for any other purpose hereunder, and there shall be no pro forma or other reduction in Debt with the proceeds of such Cure Action in connection with determining such calculation during the period in which such proceeds are included in EBITDA) at the request of the Lead Borrower as if such proceeds were contributed on the last day of the applicable Fiscal Quarter, and must be sufficient (but may not be in excess of the amount required) to cause Obligors to be in pro forma compliance with the financial covenant set forth in Section 9.3.1. No more than two Cure Actions may be taken in any four Fiscal Quarter period and no more than four Cure Actions may be taken after the Third Restatement Date. If, after giving effect to the Cure Action, the Lead Borrower shall be in compliance with the requirements of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Lead Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of Section 9.3.1 as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or Event of Default with respect to such Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio that had occurred shall be deemed cured for purposes of this Agreement. To the extent a Fiscal Quarter for which such Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is initially recalculated as a result of such Cure Action is included in the calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio in a subsequent fiscal period, the results of the Cure Action shall be included in the amount of EBITDA for such Fiscal Quarter in such subsequent fiscal period. After the occurrence of the breach, Default or Event of Default resulting from a failure to comply with Section 9.3.1, if the Lead Borrower has given the Agent notice that it intends to cure such breach, Default or Event of Default pursuant to a Cure Action, neither the Lenders nor the Agent shall exercise any rights or remedies under Section 10 (or under any Loan Document) available during the continuance of any breach, Default or Event of Default on the basis of any actual or purported failure to comply with Section 9.3.1 until such failure is not cured on or prior to the expiration of the 10 Business Day cure period referenced above.

thereof, prior to its scheduled maturity or that is a failure to pay such Material Debt at maturity (in each case unless such Material Debt has been paid in full or the failure has been waived or otherwise cured), or (ii) any other breach or default of any Obligor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries occurs that results in such Material Debt becoming due prior to its scheduled maturity (other than, with respect to Material Debt consisting of obligations under Hedging Agreements, termination events or equivalent events not relating to the breach by any Obligor or any Restricted Subsidiary of the terms thereof); (provided that this clause (f)(ii) shall not apply to secured Debt that becomes due as a result of the voluntary sale or transfer of the property or assets securing such Debt);

10.2 Remedies upon Default. If an Event of Default described in Section 10.1(h) occurs and is continuing with respect to the Lead Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, any German Borrower, or any Significant Subsidiary, then to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, all Obligations, except the German Obligations, shall become automatically due and payable and all Revolver Commitments shall terminate, without any action by the Agent or notice of any kind. In addition, (x) if any other Event of Default exists and is continuing the Agent may in its discretion (and shall upon written direction of Required Lenders) with regard to any or all Obligations, and (y) if an Event of Default under Section 10.1(h) exists and is continuing, the Agent may in its discretion (and shall upon written direction of Required Lenders) with regard to the German Obligations, do any one or more of the following from time to time:

The rights of the Agent, the Issuing Bank, each Lender and each such Affiliate under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Person may have. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank agrees to promptly notify the Borrowers and the Agent after any such setoff and application.

10.4 Remedies Cumulative; No Waiver.

10.4.1 Cumulative Rights. All agreements, covenants, warranties, guaranties, indemnities and other undertakings of Obligors under the Loan Documents are cumulative and not in derogation or substitution of each other. The rights and remedies of the Agent and the Lenders are cumulative, may be exercised at any time and from time to time, concurrently or in any order, and shall not be exclusive of any other rights or remedies available to the Agent and the Lenders by agreement, by law, at equity or otherwise.

SECTION 11. AGENT

11.1 Appointment, Authority and Duties of the Agent.

11.1.1 Appointment and Authority. Each Secured Party hereby irrevocably appoints and designates Bank of America as the Agent, Barclays Bank PLC as the Documentation Agent, Keybank National Association and Société Générale as the Amendment Documentation Agents, under all Loan Documents and each of Bank of America, Barclays Bank PLC, Keybank National Association and Société Générale hereby accepts such appointment. The Agent may, and each Secured Party authorizes the Agent to, enter into all Loan Documents to which the Agent is intended to be a party and accept all Security Documents, for the benefit of Secured Parties. Each Secured Party agrees that any action taken by the Agent or Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Agent or Required Lenders of any rights or remedies set forth therein, together with all other powers reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized by and binding upon all Secured Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent shall have the sole and exclusive authority to

(a) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for the Lenders with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection with the Loan Documents; (b) execute and deliver as the Agent each Loan Document, including any intercreditor or subordination agreement, and accept delivery of each Loan Document from any Obligor or other Person; (c) act as collateral agent for Secured Parties for purposes of perfecting and administering Liens under the Loan Documents, and for all other purposes

stated therein; (d) manage, supervise or otherwise deal with Collateral; and (e) take any Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral under the Loan Documents, Applicable Law or otherwise. No Secured Party shall have any right individually to take any Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral under the Loan Documents, Applicable Law or otherwise. The duties of the Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and the Agent shall not have a fiduciary relationship with any Secured Party, Participant or other Person, by reason of any Loan Document or any transaction relating thereto. The Agent alone shall be authorized to determine whether any Accounts or Inventory constitute Eligible Accounts, Eligible Inventory, Eligible German Accounts and Eligible German Inventory, whether to impose or release any Availability Reserve, or whether any conditions to funding or to issuance of a Letter of Credit have been satisfied, which determinations and judgments, if exercised in good faith, shall exonerate the Agent from liability to any Lender or other Person for any error in judgment.

11.1.2 Duties. The Agent shall not have any duties except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. The conferral upon the Agent of any right shall not imply a duty to exercise such right, unless instructed to do so by Required Lenders in accordance with this Agreement. Each Documentation Agent, in its capacity as such, shall have no obligations, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement but shall be entitled to all benefits of this Section 11.

11.1.3 Agent Professionals. The Agent may perform its duties through agents and employees. The Agent may consult with and employ Agent Professionals, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by an Agent Professional.

11.1.4 Instructions of Required Lenders. The rights and remedies conferred upon the Agent under the Loan Documents may be exercised without the necessity of joinder of any other party, unless required by Applicable Law. The Agent may request instructions from Required Lenders or other Secured Parties with respect to any act (including the failure to act) in connection with any Loan Documents, and may seek assurances to its satisfaction from Secured Parties of their indemnification obligations against all Claims that could be incurred by the Agent in connection with any act. The Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act until it has received such instructions or assurances, and the Agent shall not incur liability to any Lender by reason of so refraining. Instructions of Required Lenders shall be binding upon all Secured Parties, and no Secured Party shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Agent as a result of the Agent acting or refraining from acting in accordance with the instructions of Required Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, instructions by and consent of specific Lenders or Secured Parties shall be required to the extent provided in Section 14.1.1. In no event shall the Agent be required to take any action that, in its opinion, is contrary to Applicable Law or any Loan Documents or could subject any Agent Indemnitee to personal liability.

11.2 Agreements Regarding Collateral and Field Examination Reports.

11.2.1 Possession of Collateral. The Agent and Secured Parties appoint each Lender as agent (for the benefit of Secured Parties) for the purpose of perfecting Liens in any Collateral held or controlled by such Lender, to the extent such Liens are perfected by possession or control. If any Lender obtains possession or control of any Collateral, it shall notify the Agent thereof and, promptly upon the Agent’s request, deliver such Collateral to the Agent or otherwise deal with it in accordance with the Agent’s instructions.

11.2.2 Reports. The Agent shall promptly forward to each Lender, when complete, copies of any field audit, examination or appraisal report prepared by or for the Agent with respect to any Obligor or Collateral (“Report”). Each Lender agrees (a) that neither

Bank of America nor the Agent makes any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any Report, and shall not be liable for any information contained in or omitted from any Report; (b) that the Reports are not intended to be comprehensive audits or examinations, and that the Agent or any other Person performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Collateral and will rely significantly upon the Borrowers’ books and records as well as upon representations of the Borrowers’ officers and employees; and (c) to keep all Reports confidential in accordance with Section 14.11 and not to distribute or use any Report in any manner other than administration of the Revolver Loans and other Obligations. Each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Agent and any other Person preparing a Report from any action such Lender may take as a result of or any conclusion it may draw from any Report, as well as from any Claims arising as a direct or indirect result of the Agent furnishing a Report to such Lender.

11.3 Reliance By the Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability in relying, upon any certification, notice or other communication (including those by telephone, telex, telegram, telecopy or e-mail) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and upon the advice and statements of the Agent Professionals. The Agent shall have a reasonable and practicable amount of time to act upon any instruction, notice or other communication under any Loan Document, and shall not be liable for any such delay in acting.

11.4 Action Upon Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, or of any failure to satisfy any conditions in Section 6, unless it has received written notice from a Borrower or Required Lenders specifying the occurrence and nature thereof. If any Lender acquires knowledge of a Default, Event of Default or failure of such conditions, it shall promptly notify the Agent and the other Lenders thereof in writing. Each Secured Party agrees that, except with the written consent of the Required Lenders, it will not take any Enforcement Action, accelerate Obligations, or exercise any right that it might otherwise have under Applicable Law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC and PPSA sales or other similar dispositions of Collateral or to assert any rights relating to any Collateral.

11.5 Ratable Sharing. If any Lender shall obtain any payment or reduction of any Obligation, whether through set-off or otherwise, in excess of its share of such Obligation, determined on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.5.1, as applicable, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders such participations in the affected Obligation as are necessary to cause the purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or reduction on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.5.1, as applicable. If any of such payment or reduction is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Defaulting Lender obtains a payment or reduction of any Obligation, it shall immediately turn over the amount thereof to the Agent for application under Section 4.2.2 and it shall provide a written statement to the Agent describing the Obligation affected by such payment or reduction. No Lender shall set off against any Dominion Account without the prior consent of the Agent.

11.6 Limitation on Responsibilities of the Agent. The Agent shall not be liable to any Secured Party for any action taken or omitted to be taken under the Loan Documents, except for losses directly and solely caused by the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Agent does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by any Obligor, Lender or other Secured Party of any obligations under the Loan Documents. The Agent does not make any express or implied representation, warranty or guarantee to Secured Parties with respect to any Secured Obligations,

Collateral, Loan Documents or Obligor. No Agent Indemnitee shall be responsible to Secured Parties for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in any Loan Documents; the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any Loan Documents; the genuineness, enforceability, collectibility, value, sufficiency, location or existence of any Collateral, or the validity, extent, perfection or priority of any Lien therein; the validity, enforceability or collectability of any Secured Obligations; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Obligor or Account Debtor. No Agent Indemnitee shall have any obligation to any Secured Party to ascertain or inquire into the existence of any Default or Event of Default, the observance by any Obligor of any terms of the Loan Documents, or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in any Loan Documents.

11.7 Successor Agent and Co-Agents.

11.7.1 Resignation; Successor Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, the Agent may resign at any time by giving at least 30 days written notice thereof to Lenders and the Lead Borrower. Upon receipt of such notice, Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with (and with the consent of) the Lead Borrower, to appoint a successor Agent which shall be (a) a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender; or (b) a commercial bank that is organized under the laws of the United States or any state or district thereof, has a combined capital surplus of at least $200,000,000 and (provided no Event of Default exists under Sections 10.1(a) and 10.1(h) (with respect to the Lead Borrower only) is subject to the approval of the Borrowers. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Agent, then the Agent may appoint a successor agent from among the Lenders or, if no Lender accepts such role, the Agent may appoint Required Lenders as successor Agent. Upon acceptance by a successor Agent of an appointment to serve as the Agent hereunder, or upon appointment of Required Lenders as successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the powers and duties of the retiring Agent without further act, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder but shall continue to have the benefits of the indemnification set forth in Section 14.2. Notwithstanding any Agent’s resignation, the provisions of this Section 11 shall continue in effect for its benefit with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while the Agent. Any successor to Bank of America by merger or acquisition of stock or this loan shall continue to be the Agent hereunder without further act on the part of the parties hereto, unless such successor resigns as provided above.

11.7.2 Separate Collateral Agent. It is the intent of the parties that there shall be no violation of any Applicable Law denying or restricting the right of financial institutions to transact business in any jurisdiction. If the Agent believes that it may be limited in the exercise of any rights or remedies under the Loan Documents due to any Applicable Law, the Agent may appoint, subject to the approval of the Lead Borrower (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), an additional Person who is not so limited, as a separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent. If the Agent so appoints a collateral agent or co-collateral agent, each right and remedy intended to be available to the Agent under the Loan Documents shall also be vested in such separate agent. The parties acknowledge that the Term Loan Agent may be acting as collateral agent for the Agent and the Lenders with respect to Real Estate, equipment and other Term Priority Collateral and the Agent hereby appoints the Term Loan Agent to act in such capacity. Secured Parties shall execute and deliver such documents as the Agent deems appropriate to vest any rights or remedies in such agent. If any collateral agent or co-collateral agent shall die or dissolve, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, then all the rights and remedies of such agent, to the extent permitted by

Applicable Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Agent until appointment of a new agent.

11.8 Due Diligence and Non-Reliance. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lenders, and based upon such documents, information and analyses as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of each Obligor and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to fund Revolver Loans and participate in LC Obligations hereunder. Each Secured Party has made such inquiries as it feels necessary concerning the Loan Documents, Collateral and Obligors. Each Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Secured Parties have made no representations or warranties concerning any Obligor, any Collateral or the legality, validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any Loan Documents or Secured Obligations. Each Secured Party will, independently and without reliance upon any other Secured Party, and based upon such financial statements, documents and information as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make and rely upon its own credit decisions in making Revolver Loans and participating in LC Obligations, and in taking or refraining from any action under any Loan Documents. Except for notices, reports and other information expressly required to be furnished to or expressly requested by a Lender, the Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Secured Party with any notices, reports or certificates furnished to the Agent by any Obligor or any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition, business or Properties of any Obligor (or any of its Affiliates) which may come into possession of the Agent or its Affiliates.

11.9 Remittance of Payments and Collections.

11.9.1 Remittances Generally.

(a) All payments by any Lender (other than Lenders of German Revolver Loans which shall be pursuant to clause (b) below) to the Agent shall be made by the time and on the day set forth in this Agreement, in immediately available funds. If no time for payment is specified or if payment is due on demand by the Agent and request for payment is made by the Agent by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day, payment shall be made by Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such day, and if request is made after 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), then payment shall be made by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the next Business Day. Payment by the Agent to any Secured Party shall be made by wire transfer, in the type of funds received by the Agent. Any such payment shall be subject to the Agent’s right of offset for any amounts due from such payee under the Loan Documents.

(b) All payments by any Lender of German Revolver Loans to the Agent shall be made by the time and on the day set forth in this Agreement, in immediately available funds. If no time for payment is specified or if payment is due on demand by the Agent and request for payment is made by the Agent by 11:00 a.m. (London time GMT) on a Business Day, payment shall be made by Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. (London time GMT) on such day, and if request is made after 11:00 a.m. (London time GMT), then payment shall be made by 11:00 a.m. (London time GMT) on the next Business Day. Payment by the Agent to any Secured Party shall be made by wire transfer, in the type of funds received by the Agent. Any such payment shall be subject to the Agent’s right of offset for any amounts due from such payee under the Loan Documents.

11.9.2 Failure to Pay. If any Secured Party fails to pay any amount when due by it to the Agent pursuant to the terms hereof, such amount shall bear interest from the due date until paid at the rate determined by the Agent as customary in the banking industry for interbank compensation. In no event shall Borrower be entitled to receive credit for any interest paid by a Secured Party to the Agent, nor shall any Defaulting Lender be entitled to interest on any amounts held by the Agent pursuant to Section 4.2.

11.9.3 Recovery of Payments. If the Agent pays any amount to a Secured Party in the expectation that a related payment will be received by the Agent from an Obligor and such related payment is not received, then the Agent may recover such amount from each Secured Party that received it. If the Agent determines at any time that an amount received under any Loan Document must be returned to an Obligor or paid to any other Person pursuant to Applicable Law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term of any Loan Document, the Agent shall not be required to distribute such amount to any Lender. If any amounts received and applied by the Agent to any Secured Obligations are later required to be returned by the

Agent pursuant to Applicable Law, each Lender shall pay to the Agent, on demand, such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the amounts required to be returned.

11.10 The Agent in its Individual Capacity. As a Lender, Bank of America shall have the same rights and remedies under the other Loan Documents as any other Lender, and the terms “Lenders “Required Lenders” or any similar term shall include Bank of America in its capacity as a Lender. Bank of America and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, provide Bank Products to, act as financial or other advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Obligors and their Affiliates, as if Bank of America were not the Agent hereunder, without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. In their individual capacities, Bank of America and its Affiliates may receive information regarding Obligors, their Affiliates and their Account Debtors (including information subject to confidentiality obligations), and each Secured Party agrees that Bank of America and its Affiliates shall be under no obligation to provide such information to any Secured Party, if acquired in such individual capacity.

11.11 Agent Titles. Each Lender, other than Bank of America, that is designated (on the cover page of this Agreement or otherwise) by Bank of America as an “Agent” or “Arranger” of any type shall not have any right, power, responsibility or duty under any Loan Documents other than those applicable to all Lenders, and shall in no event be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any other Lender.

11.12 Bank Product Providers. Each Secured Bank Product Provider, by delivery of a notice to the Agent of a Bank Product, agrees to be bound by Section 5.5 and this Section 11. Each Secured Bank Product Provider shall indemnify and hold harmless the Agent Indemnitees, to the extent not reimbursed by Obligors, against all Claims that may be incurred by or asserted against any Agent Indemnitee in connection with such provider’s Secured Bank Product Obligations.

11.13 Survival. This Section 11 shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations. Other than Section Sections 11.1, 11.4 and 11.7, this Section 11 does not confer any rights or benefits upon Borrowers or any other Person. As between Borrowers and Agent, any action that Agent may take under any Loan Documents or with respect to any Obligations shall be conclusively presumed to have been authorized and directed by Secured Parties.

11.14 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any Applicable Law, the Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 5.1, each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Agent against, within 10 days after written demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Agent by the IRS or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Agent to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form

was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Agent under this Section 11.14. The agreements in this Section 11.14 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolver Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Section 11.14, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and any Swingline Lender.

11.15 Quebec Liens (Hypothecs). For the purposes of holding any Liens (hypothecs) granted by any Obligor pursuant to any Quebec law governed Canadian Security Documents that secure the payment of all indebtedness, liabilities and other obligations, present and future, owed by an Obligor to the Agent and Secured Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Secured Parties hereby appoint the Agent as hypothecary representative for all purposes of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec, and, more specifically, all present and future Secured Parties. Each Secured Party therefore appoints the Agent as its hypothecary representative to hold the Liens created pursuant to such Quebec law governed Canadian Security Documents in order to secure the indebtedness, liabilities and other obligations, present and future, owed by an Obligor to the Agent and such Secured Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. By executing an Assignment and Acceptance, each future Secured Party shall be deemed to ratify the appointment of the Agent as hypothecary representative hereunder. The substitution of the Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11 shall also constitute the substitution of the Agent as hypothecary representative hereunder.

SECTION 12. BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS

12.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers, the Agent, the Lenders, Secured Parties, and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Borrower shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under any Loan Documents without the consent of each Lender (other than in a transaction specifically permitted hereby). The Agent may treat the Person which made any Revolver Loan as the owner thereof for all purposes until such Person makes an assignment in accordance with Section 12.3. Any authorization or consent of a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent transferee or assignee of such Lender.

12.2 Participations.

12.2.1 Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with Applicable Law, at any time, without notice to or any requirement to obtain the consent of the Obligors, sell to a financial institution other than a Defaulting Lender or a Disqualified Institution (“Participant”) a participating interest in the rights and obligations of such Lender under this Agreement. Despite any sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the holder of its Revolver Loans and Revolver Commitments for all purposes, all amounts payable by the Obligors shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and the Obligors and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the Loan Documents. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its

Participants of any matters under the Loan Documents, and the Agent and the other Lenders shall not have any obligation or liability to any such Participant. Subject to the next succeeding sentence, the Obligors agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.6 and Section 5.8 (subject to the limitations and requirements of such Section and Section 5.9). A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to any such Sections than the Applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such Lender to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Lead Borrower’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), which written consent shall specifically acknowledge that such consent is pursuant to this Section 12.2.1.

12.2.2 Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Documents other than that which forgives principal, interest or fees, reduces the stated interest rate or fees payable with respect to any Revolver Loan or Revolver Commitment in which such Participant has an interest, postpones the Commitment Termination Date or any date fixed for the payment of interest or fees on such Revolver Loan or Revolver Commitment, or releases any Borrower, Guarantor or substantial portion of the Collateral (other than any such release permitted pursuant to the terms of the Agreement or the other Loan Documents).

12.2.3 Benefit of Set-Off. The Obligors agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.3 in respect of its participating interest to the same extent as if such interest were owing directly to a Lender. By exercising any right of set-off, a Participant agrees to share with the Lenders all amounts received through its set-off, in accordance with Section 11.5 as if such Participant were a Lender.

12.2.4 Participant Register. Each Lender, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Obligors, shall maintain at its offices a record of each agreement or instrument effecting any participation and a register for the recordation in book entry form of the names and addresses of its Participants and their rights with respect to principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Revolver Loans from time to time (each a “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in the Revolver Commitments, Revolver Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Revolver Commitment, Revolver Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5.f103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations. The entries in each Participant Register shall be conclusive and the Obligors and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in a Participant Register as the Participant for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

12.3 Assignments.

12.3.1 Permitted Assignments. A Lender may assign to an Eligible Assignee any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, as long as (a) each assignment is of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of the transferor Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents and, in the case of a partial assignment, is in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by the Agent in its discretion) and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount; (b) except in the case of an assignment in whole of a Lender’s rights and obligations, the aggregate amount of the Revolver Commitments retained by the transferor Lender is at least $5,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by the Agent in its discretion); and (c) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for its acceptance and recording, an Assignment and Acceptance; provided, however, that each such assignment of Commitments under wither the Canadian Sub-Facility or the U.S. Sub-Facility shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any Revolver Loan and any related Revolver Commitments, including the obligations under each of the Canadian Sub-Facility and the U.S. Sub-Facility. Nothing herein shall limit the right of a Lender to pledge or assign any rights under this Agreement to (i) any Federal Reserve Bank or the United States Treasury as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank or (ii)

counterparties to swap agreements relating to any Revolver Loans (other than a Disqualified Institution); provided, however, that any payment by the Obligors to the assigning Lender in respect of any Obligations assigned as described in this sentence shall satisfy the Obligors’ obligations hereunder to the extent of such payment, and no such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.

12.3.2 Effect; Effective Date. Upon delivery to the Agent of an assignment notice in the form of Exhibit B and a processing fee of $3,500 (unless otherwise agreed by the Agent in its discretion) and upon the recordation thereof in the Register (as defined below), the assignment shall become effective as specified in the notice, if it complies with this Section 12.3. From such effective date, the Eligible Assignee shall for all purposes be a Lender under this Agreement, and shall have all rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder. Upon consummation of an assignment, the transferor Lender, the Agent and the Obligors shall make appropriate arrangements for issuance of replacement and/or new Notes, as applicable. The transferee Lender shall comply with Section 5.9 and deliver, upon request, an administrative questionnaire satisfactory to the Agent.

12.3.3 Certain Assignees. No assignment may be made to a Borrower, Affiliate of a Borrower, Disqualified Institution, Defaulting Lender or natural person. In connection with any assignment by a Defaulting Lender, such assignment shall only be effective upon payment by the Eligible Assignee or Defaulting Lender to the Agent of an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution (through direct payment, purchases of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions as the Agent deems appropriate), (a) to satisfy all funding and payment liabilities then owing by the Defaulting Lender hereunder, and (b) to acquire its Pro Rata share of all Revolver Loans and LC Obligations. If an assignment by a Defaulting Lender shall become effective under Applicable Law for any reason without compliance with the foregoing sentence, then the assignee shall be deemed a Defaulting Lender for all purposes until such compliance occurs.

12.3.4 Register. The Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each assignment notice delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation in book entry form of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the commitment of, and principal amount of the Revolver Loans (and stated interest thereon) owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Obligors shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Lead Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Upon its receipt of a duly completed assignment notice executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 12.3.2 and any written consent to such assignment required by Section 12.3.2, the Agent shall accept such assignment notice and record the information contained therein in the Register.

12.4 Replacement of Certain Lenders. If (a) a Lender fails to give its consent to any amendment, waiver or action for which consent of all Lenders was required and Required Lenders consented, (b) a Lender requests compensation under Section 3.7, (c) 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

5.8 or (d) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then, in addition to any other rights and remedies that any Person may have, the Agent or the Lead Borrower may, by notice to such Lender, require such Lender to assign all of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to Eligible Assignee(s), pursuant to appropriate Assignment and Acceptance(s), within 10 days after the notice. The Agent is irrevocably appointed as attorney-in-fact to execute any such Assignment and Acceptance if the Lender fails to execute it. Such Lender shall be entitled to receive, in cash, concurrently with such assignment, all amounts owed to it under the

Loan Documents, including all principal, interest and fees through the date of assignment (but excluding any prepayment charge). The Borrowers shall be responsible for all costs and expenses related to any such assignment pursuant to the terms of Section 14.2.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, any assignment or participation made by a Lender in violation of the provisions of this Section 12 shall be void ab initio and, in the case of assignments, the Disqualified Institution shall be deleted from the Register and the Borrowers shall be entitled to seek specific performance to unwind any such assignment or participation in addition to any other remedies available to the Borrowers at law or in equity; provided that the Agent shall not be responsible for, nor have any liability in connection with, maintaining, updating, monitoring or enforcing the list of Disqualified Institutions unless caused by or is the result of the negligence (including, without limitation, gross negligence), bad faith or willful misconduct of the Agent or its Affiliates.

SECTION 13. GUARANTEE

13.1 The Guarantee.

(a) The U.S. Guarantors hereby guarantee to each Lender, the Issuing Bank and the Agent and their respective successors and permitted assigns the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the U.S. Secured Obligations (including all

Secured Obligations that would otherwise be deemed to be Excluded Hedging Obligations) and that each such guaranty is intended as a “guaranty” as described under Section 1a(18) of the Commodity Exchange Act. The U.S. Guarantors hereby further agree that if any Borrower shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Secured Obligations, the

Guarantors will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Secured Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

(b) The Canadian Guarantors hereby guarantee to each Lender, the Issuing Bank and the Agent and their respective successors and permitted assigns the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Canadian Secured Obligations (including all Canadian Secured Obligations that would otherwise be deemed to be Excluded Hedging Obligations) and that each such guaranty is intended as a “guaranty” as described under Section 1a(18) of the Commodity Exchange Act. The Canadian Guarantors hereby further agree that if the Canadian Borrower shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Canadian Secured Obligations, the Canadian Guarantors will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Canadian Secured Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

(c) Subject to Sections 13.9 and 13.10 hereof and subject to any local law limitation contained in any joinder agreement as contemplated by Section 9.1.9(e), the German Guarantors hereby guarantee to each Lender, the Issuing Bank and the Agent and their respective successors and permitted assigns the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the German Secured Obligations (including all German Secured Obligations that would otherwise be deemed to be Excluded Hedging Obligations) and that each such guaranty is intended as a “guaranty” as described under Section 1a(18) of the Commodity Exchange Act. The German Guarantors hereby further agree that if any German Borrower shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at

stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the German Secured Obligations, the German Guarantors will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the German Secured Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

(d) Subject to Sections 13.9 and 13.10 hereof and, solely in the case of a German Guarantor subject to any local law limitation contained in any joinder agreement as contemplated by Section 9.1.9(e), each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally

and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Obligor to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty in respect of Hedging Agreements (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 13.1 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 13.1, or otherwise under this Guaranty, as it relates to such other Obligor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until the termination of this Guaranty in accordance with Section 13.2 hereof. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 13.1 constitute, and this Section 13.1 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Obligor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

13.2 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 13.1 are absolute and unconditional irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein or reasonably related thereto, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Secured Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor (other than a defense of Full Payment), it being the intent of this Section 13.2 that the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantors hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:

(i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to such Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Secured Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(ii) solely with respect to any Canadian Guarantor, any change in the time, manner or place of the payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Canadian Obligations, or any amendment or modification of or any consent to departure from this Agreement or any other Loan Document;

(iii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions hereof or of the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein or reasonably related thereto shall be done or omitted;

(iv) the maturity of any of the Secured Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Secured Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Secured Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

(v) solely with respect to any Canadian Guarantor, any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration, or compromise of any of the Canadian Secured Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise;

(vi) solely with respect to any Canadian Guarantor, any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Canadian Borrower or any other guarantor of or other Person liable for any of the Canadian Secured Obligations;

(vii) solely with respect to any Canadian Guarantor, any insolvency, bankruptcy, arrangement, winding up reorganization or other similar Insolvency Proceeding affecting any Canadian Obligor, or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Canadian Obligor;

(viii) solely with respect to any Canadian Guarantor, the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which any Canadian Guarantor may have at any time against any Canadian Obligor, the Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Swingline Lender, any Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or in any unrelated transactions;

(ix) any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, the Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender or the Lenders as security for any of the Secured Obligations shall fail to be perfected; or

(x) solely with respect to any Canadian Guarantor, any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Canadian Borrower in respect of the Canadian Obligations or a Canadian Guarantor in respect of this guarantee or the Canadian Secured Obligations.

The Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Secured Obligations. The Guarantors hereby expressly waive the benefits of division and discussion.

13.3 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Section 13 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower in respect of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Secured Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and each Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify the Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender pursuant to Section 14.2.

13.4 Subrogation. Until such time as the Full Payment of the Obligations guaranteed by such Guarantor pursuant to Section 13.1, each of the Guarantors hereby agrees not to enforce any rights of subrogation, contribution or indemnity that it may have, whether arising by contract or operation of law (including, without limitation, any such right arising under the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada), the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada)) or otherwise by reason of any payment by it pursuant to the provisions of this Section 13.

13.5 Remedies. The Guarantors agree that, as between the Guarantors and the Lenders, the Obligations of any Borrower hereunder may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 10.2 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable to the extent set forth as so in Section 10.2) for purposes of Section 13.1 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such Obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Borrowers and that, in the event of such declaration (or such Obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such Obligations (whether or not due and payable by any Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 13.1.

13.6 Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Section 13 is a continuing guarantee and shall apply to all Secured Obligations whenever arising.

13.7 Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of each applicable Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of non-payment of the Secured Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each Guarantor assumes and incurs under this guarantee, and agrees that none of the Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Swingline Lender or any Lender shall have any duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

13.8 General Limitation on Amount of Obligations Guaranteed. In any action or proceeding involving any state, Federal or non-U.S. corporate law, or any state, Federal or non-U.S. bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if any portion of the obligations of the Guarantors under Section 13.1 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 13.1, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Guarantors, any Lender, the Agent or other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

13.9 German Limitations .

13.9.1 Guarantee Limitations.

(a) The restrictions in this Section 13.9 shall apply to any guarantee and indemnity granted by a German Guarantor existing under the laws of Germany as a limited liability company (“GmbH”) that guarantee or secure liabilities of its direct or indirect shareholder(s) (upstream) or a Subsidiary of such shareholder cross-stream, excluding any direct or indirect Subsidiary of such German Guarantor (hereinafter a “Guarantee”).

(b) The restrictions in this Section 13.9 shall not apply: (i) to the extent the German Guarantor secures any indebtedness under any Loan Documents in respect of (A) loans to the extent they are on-lent or otherwise (directly or indirectly) passed on to the relevant German Guarantor or its Subsidiaries and such amount on-lent or otherwise passed on is still outstanding or (B) bank guarantees or letters of credit that are issued for the benefit of any of the creditors of the German Guarantor or the German Guarantor’s direct or indirect Subsidiaries; (ii) if, at the time of enforcement of the Guarantee a domination and/or profit and loss pooling agreement (Beherrschungs-und/oder Gewinnabführungsvertrag) (either directly or indirectly through an unbroken chain of domination and/or profit transfer agreements) exists (besteht) between the relevant German

Guarantor as a dominated company and (A) in case that German Guarantor is a Subsidiary of the relevant affiliate whose obligations are secured by the relevant Guarantee, that affiliate; or (B) in case the German Guarantor and the relevant affiliate whose obligations are secured by the relevant Guarantee are both Subsidiaries of a joint (direct or indirect) affiliate, such affiliate as dominating entity (beherrschendes Unternehmen); (iii) to the extent any payment under the Guarantee demanded by any Secured Party from the relevant German Guarantor is covered (gedeckt) by means of a fully valuable and recoverable consideration or recourse claim (Gegenleistungs-oder Rückgewähranspruch) of the German Guarantor against the affiliate whose obligations are guaranteed or secured by the relevant Guarantee; or (iv) if the relevant German Guarantor has not complied with its obligations pursuant to Sections 13.9.2 and

13.9.4 below.

13.9.2 Restrictions on Payment.

(a) The parties to this Agreement agree that if payment under the Guarantee would cause the amount of a German Guarantor’s net assets, as calculated pursuant to Section 13.9.3 below, to fall below the amount required to maintain its registered share capital (Stammkapital) or increase an existing shortage of its registered share capital (Stammkapital) in each case in violation of section 30 of the German Act on Limited Liability Companies (“GmbHG”), (such event is hereinafter referred to as a “Capital Impairment”), then the Secured Parties shall, subject to Sections 13.9.3 and 13.9.4 below, not enforce the Guarantee against such German Guarantor if and to the extent such Capital Impairment would occur.

(b) If the relevant German Guarantor does not notify the Agent in writing (the “Management Notification”) within five (5) Business Days after the making of a demand against that German Guarantor under the Guarantee: (i) to what extent such Guarantee is a upstream or cross-stream guarantee or indemnity; and (ii) to what extent a Capital Impairment would occur as a result of an enforcement of the Guarantee (setting out in reasonable detail to what extent the share capital would fall below the stated share capital or an increase of an existing shortage would occur, providing an up-to-date pro forma balance sheet and a statement if and to what extent a realization or other measures undertaken in accordance with the mitigation provisions set out in Section 13.9.4 below would not prevent such situation), then the restrictions set out in paragraph (a) of this Section 13.9.2 shall cease to apply until such Management Notification has been delivered.

(c) If the Agent (acting on the instructions of all the Lenders) disagrees with the Management Notification, it may within twenty (20) Business Days of its receipt, request the relevant German Guarantor to provide to the Agent within forty-five (45) Business Days of receipt of such request a determination by auditors of international standard and reputation (the “Auditor’s Determination”) appointed by the German Guarantor (at its own cost and expense) of the amount in which the payment under the Guarantee would cause a Capital Impairment.

(d) If the Agent (acting on the instructions of all the Lenders) disagrees with the Auditor’s Determination, it shall notify the respective German Guarantor accordingly. The Secured Parties shall only be entitled to enforce the Guarantee up to the amount which is undisputed between themselves and the respective German Guarantor in accordance with the provisions of paragraphs (a) through (c) of this Section 13.9.2. In relation to the amount which is disputed by the Agent (acting on the instructions of all the Lenders), the Secured Parties shall be entitled to further pursue their claims under the guarantee and/or indemnity (if any) in court.

13.9.3 Net Assets. The net assets (Reinvermögen) of the German Guarantor (the “Net Assets”) shall be calculated in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles applicable from time to time in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsgemäβer Buchführung) and for the purposes of calculating the Net Assets, the following balance sheet items shall be adjusted as follows:

(a) the amount of any increase in the registered share capital of the relevant German Guarantor which was carried out after the relevant German Guarantor became a party to this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Agent shall be deducted from the amount of the registered share capital of the relevant German Guarantor;

(b) loans provided to the German Guarantor by any Loan Party or Restricted Subsidiary to the extent such loan has not yet been discharged shall be disregarded; and

(c) loans or other liabilities incurred by the relevant German Guarantor in breach of the Loan Documents shall not be taken into account as liabilities.

13.9.4 Mitigation. Where a German Guarantor claims in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.9.2 that the Guarantee can only be enforced in a limited amount, it shall realize, to the extent lawful and commercially justifiable, any and all of its assets that are shown in the balance sheet with a book value (Buchwert) that is significantly lower than the market value of the assets and are not necessary (betriebsnotwendig) for the relevant German Guarantor’s business.

13.9.5 No waiver. Nothing in this Section 13.9 shall limit the enforceability (other than as specifically set out herein), legality or validity of this Guarantee or prevent the Secured Parties from claiming in court that the provision of this Guarantee and/or making payments under this Guarantee by the relevant German Guarantor does not fall within the scope of sections 30 and 31 of the GmbHG. The agreement of the Secured Parties to abstain from demanding any or part of the payment under this Guarantee in accordance with the provisions above shall not constitute a waiver (Verzicht) of any right granted under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the Secured Parties. No reduction of the amount enforceable under the Guarantee in accordance with the above limitations will prejudice the rights of the Secured Parties to continue enforcing such guarantee and/or indemnity (subject always to the restrictions set out in this Section 13.9 at the time of such enforcement) until full and irrevocable satisfaction of all amounts owed under the Guarantee.

13.9.6 Limitations for GmbH & Co. KG. The provisions of Sections 13.9.1 through

13.9.6 and Section 13.9.7 shall apply to the limited partner in the form of a German limited liability company of a limited partnership with a German limited liability company as its general partner (GmbH & Co. KG) mutatis mutandis and all references to Net Assets shall be construed as references to the Net Assets of the general partner of such limited partnership.

13.9.7 Interpretation. The provisions of Sections 13.9.1 through Section 13.9.7shall be interpreted in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles applicable from time to time in Germany (Grundsätze ordnungsgemäßer Buchführung).

13.10 Belgian Limitations

13.10.1 As concerns any Belgian Guarantor, the guarantee granted under this Section 13 and any indemnity provision under this Agreement do not apply to the extent that this would result in unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of Articles 329, 430 or 629 (as applicable) of the Belgian Companies Code or any equivalent and applicable provisions under the laws of any other jurisdiction.

13.10.2 The total liability of any Belgian Guarantor under this Agreement shall at all times be limited to an amount not exceeding the higher of:

(a) the aggregate of:

(A) any amounts borrowed by it or its direct or indirect Subsidiaries, if any, under this Agreement; and

(B) all loans, advances or facilities made to that Belgian Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries by any of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries directly and/or indirectly using all or part of the proceeds under this Agreement (whether or not such loan, advance or facility is retained by that Belgian Guarantor or the relevant Subsidiary for its own

purposes or on-lent) at the time the relevant demand is made (without any reduction for any repayment thereof);

(b) ninety percent (90%) of its net assets (netto-actief/actif net) as referred to in Article 429 of the Belgian Companies Code and Belgian GAAP, as shown by its most recent audited annual financial statements on the Third Restatement Date; or

(a) the obligations guaranteed by an Italian Guarantor and any other payment obligations of such Italian Guarantor under any Loan Document to which it is a party shall not, at any time, include obligations which, if guaranteed by such Italian Guarantor, could cause a breach of the Italian provisions on:

(A) financial assistance (including, but not limited to, the provisions of article 2474 of the Italian civil code); or

(B) the maximum interest rate permitted under Italian usury law;

(b) any claim against any Italian Guarantor, including accessories damages and indemnities, claims for breach of representations, undertakings, covenants, tax gross up indemnities and any other claim, shall not exceed, at any time, an amount equal to the higher of:

(i) any outstanding amounts borrowed by the relevant Italian Guarantor under any Loan Document to which it is a party; and

(ii) the aggregate outstanding amount, from time to time, of any intercompany loan, documentary credit or any other item constituting financial indebtedness made available to it (or any of its direct or indirect

subsidiary) by using, directly or indirectly, the proceeds of any loan under this Agreement; and

(B) 80% of the “patrimonio netto” (net worth) of any such Italian Guarantor as such term is defined in article 2424 of the Italian civil code, as resulting from the most recent balance sheet approved by its quotaholders or, if earlier, from any interim financial statement (“situazione patrimoniale”) approved by its board of directors or sole director, as the case may be;

(c) without prejudice to paragraph (c) in Section 13.1 above, for the purposes of article 1938 of the Italian civil code, it is expressly agreed and understood that the maximum amount that an Italian Guarantor may be required to pay in respect to the German Obligations shall not exceed Euro 1,400,000.

Bank, in each case solely in their respective capacities as such). Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Indemnified Party shall be obligated to refund and return any and all amounts paid by the Borrowers to such Indemnified Person for fees, expenses or damages to the extent that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to payment of such amounts in accordance with the terms hereof. The Borrowers shall pay all reasonable, documented and invoiced out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agent associated with the syndication of the Revolver Commitments and the preparation, execution and delivery, administration, amendment, modification, waiver and/or enforcement of the Loan Documents (including field examination costs (which, if performed by the Agent, shall be charged at a rate of $1,000 per day per person)) and appraisal costs and Extraordinary Expenses and limited (notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein), in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of one U.S. firm of counsel, one Canadian firm of counsel and one German firm of counsel to the Agent (and, if reasonably necessary, one firm of local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction); provided that, such costs and expenses shall be payable within 30 days of a written demand therefor, together with backup documentation supporting such reimbursement request.

(b) If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court in any jurisdiction with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it becomes necessary to convert into a particular currency (the “Judgment Currency”) any amount due under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document in any currency other than the Judgment Currency (the “Currency Due”), then conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which judgment is given. For this purpose “rate of exchange” means the rate at which the Agent is able, on the relevant date, to purchase the Currency Due with the Judgment Currency in accordance with its normal practice at its head office in New York, New York. In the event that there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given and the date of receipt by the Agent of the amount due, the applicable Borrower will, on the date of receipt by the Agent, pay such additional amounts, if any, or be entitled to receive reimbursement of such amount, if any, as may be necessary to ensure that the amount received by the Agent on such date is the amount in the Judgment Currency which when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of receipt by the Agent is the amount then due under this Agreement or such other Loan Document in the Currency Due. If the amount of the Currency Due which the Agent is so able to purchase is less than the amount of the Currency Due originally due to it, the applicable Borrower shall indemnify and save the Agent and the Lenders harmless from and against all loss or damage arising as a result of such deficiency. This indemnity shall constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Agent from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated

sum in respect of an amount due under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or under any judgment or order.

14.9 Relationship with the Lenders. The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Revolver Commitments of any other Lender. Amounts payable hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt.
