jurisdiction that would render ineffective a release made by a creditor of claims that the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in its favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by it, would have materially affected its settlement with the applicable debtor. Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrowers and each other Loan Party waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides as follows:

A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.

Each Borrower and each other Loan Party understands, acknowledges and agrees that the release set forth above may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and may be used as a basis for an injunction against any action, suit or other proceeding which may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of the provisions of such release.

Each Borrower and each other Loan Party and their respective successors and assigns, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, covenants and agrees with and in favor of each Agent, each Lender and each of the other Released Parties that it will not sue (at law, in equity, in any regulatory proceeding or otherwise) any Agent, any Lender or any other Released Party on the basis of any claim released, remised and discharged by the Borrowers or such Loan Party pursuant to this Section 15. If the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, or their respective successors or assigns, violates the foregoing covenant, the Borrowers and each other Loan Party, including on behalf of their respective successors and assigns, jointly and severally agrees to pay, in addition to such other damages as any Agent, any Lender or any other Released Party may sustain as a result of such violation, all attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by any such Agent, any such Lender or any such other Released Party.

ARTICLE II

CREDIT EXTENSIONS

SECTION 2.01 LOANS; BORROWING PROCEDURES.

Notwithstanding anything herein or in the other Loan Documents to the contrary, the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, and the Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree that:

(a)

immediately prior to the Fourth Amendment Effective Time, the total principal amount of the Loans is $51,202,987.50, allocated among Lenders in the amounts set forth on Schedule 2.01 hereto (the “Pre-Fourth Amendment Principal Balance”);

(b)

Upon the Fourth Amendment Effective Time, the Borrowers are hereby deemed to borrow the Converted Debt Draw in the amount of $156,846,991.69 from the Lenders, and to be liable for the repayment thereof as a Loan in accordance with the Loan Documents, allocated among the Lenders in the amounts set forth on Schedule 2.01 hereto, such that the total principal among of the Loans upon and immediately following the Fourth Amendment Effective Time is and shall be $210,906,758.08;

(c)

Upon the Fourth Amendment Effective Time, the Borrowers are hereby deemed to have requested a single draw in the amount of Four Million Four Hundred Eighty Thousand Dollars ($4,480,000) (the “Fourth Amendment Draw”), and each Lender shall severally, but neither jointly nor jointly and severally, advance to the Administrative

Borrower its respective pro rata share of the Fourth Amendment Draw, in the amount reflected in Schedule 2.01(a), as an additional advance of the Loan to the Borrowers under this Agreement, and each Lender is directed by the Borrowers to make such advance to Borrowers by delivering a wire transfer to Administrative Borrower at the bank account that Administrative Borrower’s counsel designates for such purpose to counsel for Lenders and Agent;

(d)

As of and following the Fourth Amendment Effective Time, the Lenders have no obligation to extend additional Loans, advances, or other financial accommodations, other than (i) to make Loans as of the Fourth Amendment Effective Time consisting of the Fourth Amendment Draw of up to $4,480,000 in the aggregate in accordance with Section 2.01(c) hereof; (ii) to make Loans deemed made following the Fourth Amendment Effective Time pursuant to Section 2.12(c) of this Agreement, of up to $1,522,000 in the aggregate, in respect of Letter of Credit Disbursements; and (ii) to accept capitalization of the interest on the Loan in accordance with Section 2.01(j) hereof if the Required DDTL Approving Lenders have consented thereto; all other Commitments (as previously defined in this Agreement) have been terminated in their entirety prior to the Fourth Amendment Effective Time and are no longer in effect, valid, or enforceable;

(e)

the Administrative Borrower may at any time until the Maturity Date, by written notice to the Administrative Agent and each Lender (or such Lender’s counsel), request a single draw in the amount of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) (the “Incremental Delayed Draw”) of the Loan to the Borrowers under this Agreement. Such notice from the Administrative Borrower shall be given in writing at least three (3) Business Days (but not more than five (5) Business Days) prior to the requested date for Borrowing the Incremental Delayed Draw. The election to participate in such Incremental Delayed Draw may be granted or not granted by any then-existing Lender in its sole and absolute discretion (it being understood that no Lender will have an obligation to extend the Incremental Delayed Draw); provided that:

(A) each then-existing Lender shall be offered the opportunity to participate in the Incremental Delayed Draw on a pro rata basis based on such Lender’s Percentage Share of such Lender’s Loans prior to the making of such Incremental Delayed Draw;

(B) if fewer than all then-existing Lenders elect to advance the Incremental Delayed Draw, then with respect to the remaining portion that was not initially elected by the Lenders, those Lenders that did initially elect in writing to participate therein may in their sole and absolute discretion elect to participate in such remaining portion, and the Required DDTL Approving Lenders shall allocate such remaining portion among such Lenders in a manner satisfactory to such Lenders in their sole and absolute discretion; and

(C) the Incremental Delayed Draw shall further be subject to satisfaction of the Incremental Delayed Draw Pre-Conditions.

In the sole and absolute discretion of any Lender advancing a portion of the Incremental Delayed Draw, a portion of the Incremental Delayed Draw advanced by such Lender may be delivered to counsel to such Lender for the purpose of paying legal fees and expenses in accordance with the Lender Fee Letter and such Incremental Delayed Draw shall nevertheless be considered advances of the Incremental Delayed Draw even if such funds are not advanced to the Borrowers but are applied as provided therein.

(f)

The Incremental Delayed Draw (if and when advanced), together with the Pre-Fourth Amendment Principal Balance, the Fourth Amendment Draw and the Converted Debt Draw are and shall be deemed to have been made in the aggregate as a Loan to the Borrowers under this Agreement and to constitute the principal balance of the Loans pursuant to the same terms as the other advances constituting the Loans.

(g)

Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in the Fourth Amendment, or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, it is the intention of the parties hereto that the Incremental Delayed Draw, when made, constitutes Secured Obligations and Revolving Priority Obligations (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement):

(1) solely to the extent of the Junior Portion of the Loans, at any time or from time to time that a portion of the Loans constitutes a Junior Portion of the Loans, such Junior Portion of the Loans are intended to constitute Revolving Credit Excess Principal Obligations (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) and the remainder of the Loans (including for the avoidance of doubt the Incremental Delayed Draw) that are not Junior Portions of the Loan are intended to constitute Revolving Priority Obligations (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement); and

(2) at all times prior to the CF Transition Date, solely to the extent required to avoid a Default under the Term Loan Documents and the Convertible Notes Documents, the Bumped-Over Junior Portion of the Loans shall not constitute Secured Obligations.

(h)

The penultimate sentence of Section 2(a) of the Third Amendment and the proviso in Section 4 of the Third Amendment shall no longer be given effect from and after the Fourth Amendment Effective Time. Advances in aggregate amount of $3,000,000 were made under the Third Amendment Second Delayed Draw on July 16, 2024 and July 17, 2024 and there is no remaining obligation or right to advance any further portion of the Third Amendment Second Delayed Draw.

(i)

Each Borrower is and shall be jointly and severally obligated for all Obligations, and all Loans shall be deemed to have been advanced to and for the benefit of each Borrower, except that with respect only to International Holdings, to the extent that any court of competent jurisdiction shall impose by final judgment under applicable Laws (including Sections 544 and 548 of the Bankruptcy Code) any limitations on the amount of International Holdings’ liability with respect to the Obligations (other than the Converted Debt Draw) that any Agent or any other Lending Party can enforce under the Loan Documents, Agents and the other Lending Parties by their acceptance hereof accept such limitation on the amount of International Holdings’ liability under the Loan Documents to the extent needed to make the Loan Documents and the Loan Parties’ obligations thereunder fully enforceable and non-avoidable.

(j)

At any time and from time to time, except with respect to interest payable on that portion of the Loan comprised of the Converted Debt Draw (as to which Section 2.02(b) hereof shall apply instead of this Section 2.01(j)), the Required DDTL Approving Lenders may elect, in their sole and absolute discretion, with the Administrative Borrower that any payment of interest or fee that has become due or is becoming due may be paid-in-kind instead of in cash, in whole or in part, by capitalizing and adding the amount paid-in-kind to the principal balance of the Loans, thereby increasing the principal amount of such Loans, and such election by the Required DDTL Approving Loans shall apply to the

Loans of all Lenders, whether or not such other Lenders have consented to such capitalization. In furtherance thereof, the Required DDTL Approving Lenders hereby elect to capitalize, and add to the principal amount of the Loans, as of the Fourth Amendment Effective Time, the unpaid interest and fees that were scheduled to become due and payable, but were not paid, from and after July 1, 2024 and through and including the Fourth Amendment Effective Time (the “PIK’ed Deferred Interest/Fees”).

SECTION 2.02 INTEREST.

(a)

Interest. Subject to the provisions hereof (including Section 2.02(c)), (i) all Loans shall bear interest on the greater of: (A) $10,000,000, and (B) the Daily Balance, at a per annum rate equal to the Base Rate.

(b)

Payment Dates. Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears, in cash, on each Interest Payment Date and at such other times as may be specified herein; provided, however, that (x) prior to the earlier of the Maturity Date or the acceleration of the Loan in accordance with Section 8.02, interest on the portion of the Loan comprised of the Converted Debt Draw shall be paid-in-kind by capitalizing such amount on each Interest Payment Date and adding it to and increasing the outstanding principal balance of the portion of the Loan comprised of the Converted Debt Draw and (y) interest on any or all other portions of the Loan may also be paid-in-kind by being capitalized and added to the outstanding principal balance of such portion of the Loan in accordance with Section 2.01(j). Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof both before and after judgment, and both before and after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding. Subject to the provisions hereof, Borrowers shall pay accrued and unpaid interest under Section 2.02(a) to Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders, for delivery to Lenders as follows: (i) on a monthly basis in arrears on each Interest Payment Date; (ii) upon payment or prepayment of the principal balance of the Loans or any portion thereof, on the amount so paid or prepaid; and (iii) on the Maturity Date.

(c)

Default Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.02(a), at any time that an Event of Default exists (including with respect to an Overadvance) and the Required DDTL Approving Lenders have directed the Administrative Agent to apply the Default Rate to all or a portion of the Obligations (which election shall be automatic with respect to all Obligations upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(f)), then, such portion of the Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate, such interest to be payable in cash upon demand therefor by Administrative Agent. If elected by the Required DDTL Approving Lenders, the Default Rate shall accrue retroactively from the initial date of the Event of Default giving rise to imposition of the Default Rate.

(d)

Compounding. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 2.02, without affecting any of Administrative Agent’s or any Xxxxxx’s rights and remedies hereunder or in respect hereof, all interest (including interest at the Default Rate) on any Loan that is not paid when due shall be added to the outstanding principal balance thereof and thereafter bear interest at the rate then applicable to the outstanding principal balance of such Loan.

(e)

Inability to Determine Rates.

(i) If, in connection with any request for a Loan based on the SOFR Index Rate, (A) Administrative Agent determines, that (x) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the SOFR Index Rate with respect to any such proposed or existing Loan, and (y) the circumstances described in clause (iii)(A) below do not apply (in each case with respect to this clause (i)(A), “Impacted Loans”), or (B) Administrative Agent determines, for any reason, that the SOFR Index Rate with respect to such a proposed Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding such Loan, Administrative Agent will promptly so notify Administrative Borrower and each Lender, in each case, in writing. Thereafter, (1) the obligation of Lenders to make or maintain Loans based on the SOFR Index Rate shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Loans), and (2) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the SOFR Index Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the SOFR Index Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until Administrative Agent revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, Administrative Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of Loans based on the SOFR Index Rate (to the extent of the affected Loans).

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Administrative Agent has made the determination described in clause (i)(A) above, Administrative Agent, in consultation with Administrative Borrower, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (A) Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered in writing with respect to the Impacted Loans under clause (i)(A) above, (B) Administrative Agent notifies Administrative Borrower in writing that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of the Impacted Loans, or (C) any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing, and provides Administrative Agent, the other Lenders, and Administrative Borrower written notice thereof.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Required DDTL Approving Lenders or Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that:

(A) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the SOFR Index Rate, including, without limitation, because the SOFR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary;

(B) the administrator of the SOFR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over either Agent or any Lender has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which SOFR or the SOFR Screen Rate shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans (such specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”); or

(C) syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section 2.02(e), are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace SOFR;

then, reasonably promptly after such determination by Administrative Agent or Required DDTL Approving Lenders, Administrative Agent, Required DDTL Approving Lenders and Administrative Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace SOFR with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein) (any such proposed rate, a “SOFR Successor Rate”), together with any proposed SOFR Successor Rate Conforming Changes, and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after Administrative Agent shall have notified all Lenders and Administrative Borrower of such proposed amendment unless Administrative Borrower or Required DDTL Approving Lenders shall have objected thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent prior to such effective time. Such SOFR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided, that, to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for an Agent, such SOFR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by Administrative Agent.

(iv) If no SOFR Successor Rate has been determined and either the circumstances under clause (iii)(A) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), Administrative Agent will promptly so notify Administrative Borrower and each Lender in writing. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Loans based in the SOFR Index Rate shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Loans), and (y) the SOFR Index Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Base Rate. Upon receipt of such notice, Administrative Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of Loans based on the SOFR Index Rate (to the extent of the affected Loans).

(f)

Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of SOFR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such SOFR Successor Rate be less than the Floor for purposes of this Agreement.

(g)

Maximum Interest. In the event that any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document would oblige a Borrower or any other Loan Party to make any payment of interest or any other payment which is construed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be interest in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by Law, including receipt by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted nunc pro tunc to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by applicable Law or so result in a receipt by the Administrative Agent or applicable Lender of interest at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary as follows: (a) first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid under this Agreement, and (b) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums or other amounts required to be paid to the Administrative Agent or such Lender which would constitute interest for the purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada). If, notwithstanding the provisions of this section and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by applicable Law, then such excess shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the outstanding principal of the applicable a and not to the payment of interest, or if such excessive interest exceeds such principal balance, such excess shall be refunded to the applicable Loan Party.

SECTION 2.03 PAYMENTS; PREPAYMENTS.

Subject to the provisions hereof:

(a)

Payment on Maturity Date. Borrowers shall repay in full (or Collateralize, as applicable) the Credit Outstandings and all other Obligations on the Maturity Date (or, if earlier, on the date on which they are declared due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement).

(b)

Optional Prepayments. Borrowers may prepay the principal of any Loan at any time in whole or in part.

(c)

Mandatory Prepayments.

(i) In the event that any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof receives proceeds of the Dutch/Danish Tax Refund, the Borrowers shall prepay the portion of the Loan constituting the Fourth Amendment Draw in an amount equal to the gross cash proceeds of the Dutch/Danish Tax Refund actually received by such Borrower or such Subsidiary, such repayments to be made promptly but in no event more than ten (10) Business Days following receipt of such gross cash proceeds, or such later date that may be designated by the Required DDTL Approving Lenders; provided, however, that the Administrative Borrower may elect not to make all or any portion of such payment in the event that both of the following occur on or prior to the fifth (5^th) Business Day prior to due date of the payment set forth in this Section 2.03(c)(i): (A) the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders written projections demonstrating in reasonable detail the basis for the determination by a Responsible Officer of the Administrative Borrower that, if such portion of the payment is made when due, then at any test date during the period of six (6) months following the receipt of such Dutch/Danish Tax Refund, the Borrower will not satisfy the provisions of Section 6.14(d) hereof; and (B) a majority of the Special Committee has determined by majority vote not to make such payment.

(ii) Dispositions. In the event of receipt of Net Proceeds resulting from any Disposition or series of Dispositions by any Loan Party, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to the sum of 100% of such Net Proceeds; provided that this Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall not apply to any Collateral that is not Revolving Credit Priority Collateral so long as (A) no Event of Default exists and (B) the amount of Net Proceeds in respect thereof is less than $1,000,000. Nothing contained in this Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall permit Loan Parties to sell or otherwise Dispose of any assets other than in accordance with Section 7.05.

(d)

Exit Fee. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrowers shall jointly and severally pay to the Agent and the Agent shall deliver to the Lenders the Exit Fee set forth in that certain Exit Fee Letter dated as of the Second Amendment Effective Time when such fee becomes payable pursuant to the terms thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrowers shall jointly and severally pay to the Agent and the Agent shall deliver to the Lenders the Incremental Delayed Draw Exit Fee set forth in that certain amended and restated Exit Fee Letter dated as of the Fourth Amendment Effective Time when such fee becomes payable pursuant to the terms thereof.

(e)

Payments Under Certain Circumstances. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon (i) any payment of principal as the result of a refinancing of the Obligations, or (ii) the acceleration of the Obligations or any portion thereof as a result of or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (including without limitation, automatic acceleration upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(f)) (each of

clauses (i) through (ii) being referred to herein as a “Prepayment Event”), Borrowers agree that (without notice or demand of any kind from any Lending Party, such notice and demand being hereby expressly waived) Borrowers shall be required to pay and shall pay the sum of: (x) the Outstanding Amount of all Credit Extensions; plus (y) the applicable Make-Whole Amount (if any); plus (z) the applicable Prepayment Premium (if any). In connection with any such payment or prepayment of the Loans, Borrowers acknowledge that such payment or prepayment may result in Lenders incurring additional costs, expenses or liabilities, and that, as of the date hereof, it is difficult to ascertain the full extent of such costs, expenses or liabilities. Accordingly, Borrowers agree that the applicable Make-Whole Amount payable (if any) and Prepayment Premium (if any) in connection with any such Prepayment Event represents a reasonable estimate of the costs, expenses or liabilities of Lenders in connection with any such prepayment. Without affecting any of any Lending Party’s rights and remedies hereunder or in respect hereof, if Borrowers fail to pay the applicable Make-Whole Amount or Prepayment Premium when due, then the amount thereof shall thereafter bear interest until paid in full at the Default Rate. Each Borrower expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Make- Whole Amount and the Prepayment Premium as herein described is a material inducement to the Lenders to provide the Commitment and make the Loans.

(f)

From and after the CF Transition Date, following the end of each Excess Cash Flow Period, the Loan Parties shall prepay the Term Loans in an aggregate amount equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow for such Excess Cash Flow Period. Each prepayment pursuant to this paragraph shall be made on or before the date that is ten (10) Business Days after the date on which a calculation of Excess Cash Flow is required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(f) with respect to the fiscal quarter ending on the last day of the applicable Excess Cash Flow Period for which Excess Cash Flow is being calculated.

SECTION 2.04 CERTAIN FEES.

(a)

Audit and Other Related Fees. Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent audit, appraisal, inventory testing, and valuation fees and charges as follows: (i) the then applicable fees, for each analyst, plus out-of-pocket expenses for each financial or collateral audit of Borrowers performed by personnel employed by Administrative Agent, and (ii) the actual charges and expenses paid or incurred by Administrative Agent, or any third Persons engaged by Administrative Agent, to perform financial or collateral audits of Borrowers, to appraise the Collateral, or any portion thereof, or to assess Borrowers’ business valuation; provided, that all such fees and charges shall be reasonable and documented and provided further, that so long as no Event of Default exists, Borrowers shall not be obligated to reimburse or pay Administrative Agent for the fees, expenses or charges associated with more than two field examinations during any calendar year.

(b)

Letter of Credit Fees. Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders in accordance with their Percentage Shares, a letter of credit fee with respect to each Letter of Credit, computed for each day from the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to the date that is the last day a drawing is available under such Letter of Credit, at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin (or, subject to Section 2.02(c), the Default Rate) then applicable to the Loans. Such fee shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each calendar month prior to the Maturity Date and on the Maturity Date. In addition, Borrowers agree to pay promptly to the Issuing Bank any fronting or other fees or other charges, costs and/or expenses, that it may charge in connection with any Letter of Credit. For the avoidance of doubt, no other interest, costs, expenses, fees or charges of any kind shall be payable by Borrowers with respect to any issued but undrawn Letter of Credit.

(c)

Fees Generally. Without limiting any other provision set forth in this Agreement, Borrowers shall also pay to each Agent, for its own account, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter.

(d)

Other Provisions. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein or in the Fee Letter, once paid, each fee (or portion thereof) referenced in this Section 2.04 shall not be refundable under any circumstances and will not subject to counterclaim or setoff or otherwise affected. At the sole discretion of each Lender, all or any portion of any of the fees referenced herein that are payable to such Lender may be allocated or paid to any of its Affiliates or any other Lender(s).

SECTION 2.05 BROKERS AND FINANCIAL ADVISORS.

Except as set forth on Schedule 2.05, Loan Parties have not engaged any advisors (financial or otherwise), brokers or arrangers in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (including the making of the Loans). Each Loan Party hereby agrees, jointly and severally, to pay, and hereby indemnifies each Indemnitee from and against, all fees, costs and expenses of any advisors (financial or otherwise), brokers or arrangers in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (including the making of the Loans).

SECTION 2.06 MANNER OF PAYMENTS.

(a)

Payments Generally. Each payment or prepayment of principal, interest, fees and other amounts required to be paid to Administrative Agent or Lenders under the Loan Documents shall be made to Administrative Agent on account of Administrative Agent or Lenders, as applicable, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds without setoff, recoupment, deduction or counterclaim of any kind before 11:00 a.m. on the date such payment is due. Administrative Agent agrees to endeavor to provide Borrowers with an invoice setting forth the Outstanding Amount of the Loans and stating the amount of interest due on any Interest Payment Date in reasonable detail; provided, that: (i) Administrative Agent shall have no liability for failing to do so; and (ii) any failure by Administrative Agent to provide any such invoice shall not affect any Borrower’s (or any other Loan Party’s) obligation to pay when due any amounts owing hereunder in accordance with the provisions hereof.

(b)

Payments on Business Days. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day (including an Interest Payment Date) that is not a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day; provided, that interest and fees shall continue to accrue during the period of any such extension.

(c)

Computations. All interest and fees owing hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and calculated in each case for the actual number of days elapsed. For purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) in respect of each Canadian Loan Party only, (i) wherever any interest to be paid under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is to be calculated on the basis of any period of time that is less than a calendar year (a “deemed year”), such rate of interest shall be expressed as a yearly rate by multiplying such rate of

interest for the deemed year by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the rate is to be ascertained and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year; and (ii) each of the Loan Parties confirms that it fully understands and is able to calculate the rate of interest applicable to the Credit Extensions based on the methodology for calculating per annum rates provided for in this Agreement. The Administrative Agent agrees that, if requested in writing by any Loan Party, it shall calculate the nominal and effective per annum rate of interest on the Credit Extensions in the amount outstanding at any time and provide such information to such Loan Party promptly following such request; provided that any error in any such calculation, or any failure to provide such information on request, shall not relieve any Borrower or any other Loan Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor result in any liability to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender. Each Credit Party hereby irrevocably agrees not to plead or assert, whether by way of defence or otherwise, in any proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, that the interest payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the calculation thereof has not been adequately disclosed to the Loan Party, whether pursuant to Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada) or any other applicable law or legal principle.

(d)

Evidence of Debt. Administrative Agent shall maintain an account on its books in the name of Borrowers (the “Loan Account”) on which Borrowers will be charged, as applicable, with all Loans (including Protective Advances) made for the account of Borrowers and all other payment Obligations under the Loan Documents. The Loan Account will be credited, as applicable, with all payments received by Administrative Agent from Borrowers or for Borrowers’ account, in each case in accordance with Section 2.10(a). Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of any Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations owing by such Xxxxxxxx and, absent manifest error, the Loan Account shall be conclusively presumed to be correct and accurate and constitute an account stated between Borrowers and the Lending Parties. Upon the request of any Xxxxxx made through Administrative Agent, Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Lender a Note, which shall evidence such Xxxxxx’s Loans to Borrowers in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach Schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

SECTION 2.07 INCREASED COSTS.

(a)

Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, 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;

(ii) subject any Lending Party to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes contained herein and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on any Credit Extension made by it, its Commitment or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) impose on any Lender any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement and the Loans made by such Lender; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Person of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or to increase the cost to such Lender, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then, upon request of such Lending Party, Borrower shall pay to such Lending Party such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lending Party for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b)

Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Credit Extensions made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Xxxxxx’s policies and the policies of such Xxxxxx’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrowers shall pay to such Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c)

Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 2.07, as well as the basis for determining such amount or amounts, and delivered to Administrative Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten days after receipt thereof.

(d)

Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.07 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided, that Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.07 for any reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Xxxxxx’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 nine month period referred to in this subsection (d) shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(e)

Survival. All obligations of each Loan Party under this Section 2.07 shall survive termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of all other Obligations.

SECTION 2.08 PAYMENTS FREE OF TAXES.

(a)

Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws. If any applicable Laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws and, if such Tax

is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that, after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.08), each Lending Party receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b)

Payment of Other Taxes by Loan Parties. Without duplication of any obligation under paragraph (a) above, each Loan Party shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws, or, at the option of Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c)

Indemnification by Loan Parties. Each Loan Party shall jointly and severally indemnify Administrative Agent and each other Lending Party, within ten days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to the amounts payable under this Section 2.08) payable or paid by such Lending Party or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Lending Party and any reasonable and documented expenses arising therefrom (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ and tax advisors’ fees and expenses) or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Borrower by any Lending Party (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lending Party, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)

Indemnification by Xxxxxxx. Each Lender hereby agrees to severally indemnify Administrative Agent, within ten days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of any Loan Party to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Xxxxxx’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.06(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by Administrative Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this Section 2.08(d).

(e)

Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.08, such Loan Party shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.

(f)

Status of Lenders.

(i) Any Lender which is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Administrative Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Administrative Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Administrative Borrower or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Administrative Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Laws or reasonably requested by Administrative Borrower or Administrative Agent as will enable Administrative Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 2.08(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D)) shall not be required if, in such Lender’s reasonable judgment, such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender or its Affiliates. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to deliver to the Loan Parties and to any successor Administrative Agent any documentation provided by such Xxxxxx to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.08.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, with respect to the Obligations of the Loan Parties:

(A) any Lender that is not a Foreign Lender shall deliver to Administrative Borrower and Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Administrative Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Administrative Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Administrative Borrower or Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (I) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” Article of such tax treaty and (II) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W- 8BEN or W-8BEN E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” Article of such tax treaty;

(2) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (I) a U.S. Tax compliance certificate in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (II) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN; or

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN E, a U.S. Tax compliance certificate in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided, that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax compliance certificate in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Administrative Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Administrative Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Laws as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Laws to permit Administrative Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) 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 Administrative Borrower and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Administrative Borrower or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Laws (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Administrative Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrowers and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Xxxxxx 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 clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(E) If the Administrative Agent is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, it shall provide to the Administrative Borrower on or prior to the date on which it becomes an Administrative Agent under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Borrower) executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that the Administrative Agent is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax. If the Administrative Agent is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, it shall provide to the Administrative Borrower on or prior to the date on which it becomes an Administrative Agent under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Borrower): (A) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI with respect to any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for its own account, and (B) executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY with respect to any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of others, certifying that it is a “U.S. branch” and that the payments it receives for the account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business within the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Administrative Borrower to be treated as a U.S. Person with respect to such payments (and the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree to so treat the Administrative Agent as a “United States person” with respect to such payments as contemplated by Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv) of the United States Treasury Regulations).

Each Lender or Administrative Agent agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Administrative Borrower and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g)

Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its Permitted Discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.08 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.08), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.08 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this subsection (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this subsection (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This subsection (g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h)

Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.08 shall survive termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of all other Obligations.

(i)

Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(i) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.02(e), or if any Loan Party is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.08, or if any event occurs giving rise to the operation of clause (C) of 2.02(e)(ii), then such Lender shall (at the request of Administrative Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder affected by such event, or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment and delegation (x) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.02(e) or Section 2.08, as the case may be, and (y) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not be inconsistent with the internal policies of, or otherwise be disadvantageous in any economic, legal or regulatory respect to, such Lender.

(ii) If (x) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.02(e) or gives notice under clause (C) of Section 2.02(e)(ii) or (y) Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.08, and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with paragraph (i) of this Section 2.08(i), then Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate (and such Lender shall be obligated to assign and delegate), without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.06), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.07 or Section 2.08) and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment and delegation), provided that (A) Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of Administrative Agent to the extent such consent would be required under Section 10.06(b) for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, which consents, in each case, shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued but unpaid interest thereon, accrued but unpaid fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts), (C) Borrowers or such assignee shall have paid (unless waived) to Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 10.06(b)(iv) and (D) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.02(e), payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.08 or a notice given under clause (C) of Section 2.02(e)(ii), such assignment will result in a material reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender under paragraph (i) of this Section 2.08(i)), the circumstances entitling Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

SECTION 2.09 SETTLEMENT.

(a)

Settlement. Administrative Agent and each Lender agree that each Lender’s funded portion of the Loans is intended by the Lenders to equal, at all times, such Xxxxxx’s Percentage Share of the outstanding Loans. Such agreement notwithstanding, Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree (which agreement shall not be for the benefit of Borrowers) that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, settlement among the Lenders as to the Loans (including any Extraordinary Advances) shall take place on a periodic basis in accordance with the following provisions:

(i) Administrative Agent shall request settlement (“Settlement”) with the Lenders on a weekly basis (or on a more frequent basis if so determined by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) by notifying the applicable Lenders by telecopy, telephone, or other similar form of transmission, of such requested Settlement, no later than 2:00 p.m. on the Business Day immediately prior to the date of such requested Settlement (the date of such requested Settlement being the “Settlement Date”). Such notice of a Settlement Date shall include a summary statement of the amount of outstanding Loans and Extraordinary Advances for the period since the prior Settlement Date. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein: (y) if the aggregate amount of the Loans and Extraordinary Advances made by a Lender exceeds such Lender’s Percentage Share of Loans and Extraordinary Advances as of a Settlement Date, then Administrative Agent shall, by no later than 12:00 p.m. on the Settlement Date, transfer in immediately available funds to a Deposit Account of such Lender (as such Lender may designate), an amount such that each such Lender shall, upon receipt of such amount, have as of the Settlement Date, its Percentage Share of the Loans and Extraordinary Advances; and (z) if the aggregate amount of the Loans and Extraordinary Advances made by a Lender is less than such Xxxxxx’s Percentage Share of the Loans and Extraordinary Advances as of a Settlement Date, such Lender shall no later than 12:00 p.m. on the Settlement Date transfer in immediately available funds to Administrative Agent’s Applicable Account, an amount such that each such Lender shall, upon transfer of such amount, have as of the Settlement Date, its Percentage Share of Loans and Extraordinary Advances. Such amounts made available to Administrative Agent under clause (z) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be applied against the amounts of the Extraordinary Advances, and shall constitute Loans of such Lenders.

(ii) In determining whether a Xxxxxx’s balance of the applicable Loans and Extraordinary Advances is less than, equal to, or greater than such Lender’s Percentage Share thereof as of a Settlement Date, Administrative Agent shall, as part of the relevant Settlement, apply to such balance the portion of payments applicable to such Obligations actually received in good funds by Administrative Agent with respect to principal, interest, fees payable by Borrowers and allocable to the Lenders hereunder, and proceeds of Collateral.

(iii) To the extent Extraordinary Advances are outstanding between Settlement Dates, the Administrative Agent may retain any payments or other amounts received by Administrative Agent, that, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, would be applied to the reduction of Loans, for application to such Extraordinary Advances. During the period between Settlement Dates, Administrative Agent with respect to Extraordinary Advances, and each Lender with respect to the Loans other than Extraordinary Advances, shall be entitled to interest at the applicable rate or rates payable under this Agreement on the daily amount of funds employed Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable.

(iv) Anything in this Section 2.09(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from remitting settlement amounts to the Defaulting Lender and, instead, shall be entitled to elect to implement the provisions set forth in Section 2.11.

(b)

Sharing of Payments. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff, recoupment or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any Credit Outstandings or accrued and unpaid interest thereon resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the Credit Outstandings or accrued and unpaid interest thereon greater than its Percentage Share (or other applicable share) thereof as provided herein, then such Lender receiving such greater proportion shall: (i) notify Administrative Agent of such

fact; and (ii) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in that portion of the Credit Outstandings or accrued and unpaid interest thereon held by the other applicable Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Percentage Shares thereof; provided that: (A) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and (B) the provisions of this Section 2.09(b) shall not be construed to apply to:

(1) any payment made by Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement; or (2) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any portion of the Credit Outstandings held by it to any assignee or participant, other than to any Loan Party (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.09(b) shall apply). Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Laws, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may, except to the extent otherwise specified in such Xxxxxx’s participation agreement, exercise against such Loan Party rights of setoff, recoupment and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 2.10 PAYMENTS GENERALLY.

(a)

Payments Generally.

(i) All payments to be made by any Loan Party hereunder shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by any Loan Party hereunder shall be made to Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date specified herein. Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its applicable Percentage Share (or other applicable share as provided herein), if any, of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by Administrative Agent after 11:00 a.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by any Loan Party has come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(ii) Each Borrower hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to deduct automatically from any account of any Borrower maintained with or for the benefit of Administrative Agent, or to charge to the Loan Account, all principal, interest, fees, costs, expenses, or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including any reimbursable legal fees or expenses) owing by any Borrower when due (or, if not made when due, at any time thereafter). Administrative Agent agrees to provide written notice to Borrowers of any automatic deduction made pursuant to this Section 2.10(a)(ii) showing in reasonable detail the amounts of such deduction. Each Lender agrees to reimburse Borrowers based on its respective Percentage Share of the Commitments with respect to Borrowers for any amounts deducted from such accounts in excess of any amount due hereunder and under any other Loan Documents. All amounts charged to the Loan Account pursuant to this Section 2.10(a)(ii) shall thereupon constitute Loans for the account of Borrowers hereunder, shall constitute Obligations hereunder, and shall initially accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Loans.

(b)

Clawback Rights.

(i) Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of the making of the Loans that such Lender will not make available to Administrative Agent such Xxxxxx’s Percentage Share thereof, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.01(a) and shall make available to Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if any applicable Lender has not in fact made its Percentage Share of the Loans available to Administrative Agent, then each such Lender agrees to pay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to Borrowers to the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. Once such Lender pays its Percentage Share of the Loans to Administrative Agent, the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loans included within all Loans.

(ii) Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Administrative Borrower prior to the date on which any payment owing by Borrowers is due hereunder to Administrative Agent for the account of Xxxxxxx that Borrowers will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrowers has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each Lender severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to it to the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

(iii) A notice of Administrative Agent to any Lender or Borrowers with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c)

Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Xxxxxx as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to Borrowers by Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, then Administrative Agent shall promptly return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

(d)

Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to make payments under Section 10.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loans or to make any payment under Section 10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loans or to make its payments under Section 10.04(c).

(e)

Funding Sources. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

(f)

Cash Management. Each Loan Party shall establish and maintain a lockbox collection service reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, to process the collection of Accounts and cash sales of such Loan Party. Each Loan Party shall instruct all of its account debtors to make payments either directly to such lockbox for deposit into the applicable Collection Account or instruct them to deliver such payments to the applicable Collection Account by wire transfer, or by ACH transfer. All cash receipts in the lockbox of any or by any U.S. Loan Party, including without limitation, all checks, ACH transfers, and wire transfers received by such U.S. Loan Party, will be deposited into the Collection Account of such U.S. Loan Party, which account shall be subject to be an irrevocable instruction by such U.S. Loan Party (which may be altered only by Administrative Agent) to forward by daily sweep, all amounts in such account to Administrative Agent’s U.S. Account, which amounts shall be applied against the Credit Outstandings, as applicable, on the second Business Day after such funds are received by Administrative Agent in the Administrative Agent’s U.S. Account. All cash receipts in the lockbox of any or by any Canadian Loan Party, including without limitation, all checks, ACH transfers, and wire transfers received by such Canadian Loan Party, will be deposited into the Collection Account of such Canadian Loan Party, which account shall be subject to be an irrevocable instruction by such Canadian Loan Party (which may be altered only by Administrative Agent) to forward by daily sweep, all amounts in such account to Administrative Agent’s Canadian Account, which amounts shall be applied against the Credit Outstandings, as applicable, on the second Business Day after such funds are received by Administrative Agent in the Administrative Agent’s Canadian Account. Unless otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent and Administrative Borrower, any Loan requested by Administrative Xxxxxxxx and made by Administrative Agent hereunder shall be disbursed to the Disbursement Account. Administrative Agent shall have full access rights to the Collection Accounts and the Disbursement Account (collectively, the “FRB Deposit Accounts”), including without limitation, (i) direct access to the FRB Deposit Accounts, (ii) copy/online review access to the FRB Deposit Accounts, and (iii) at Administrative Agent’s discretion, the institution of automatic notifications to Administrative Agent with respect to the FRB Deposit Accounts.

SECTION 2.11 DEFAULTING LENDERS.

(a)

Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.01.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 8.02 or otherwise) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as Borrowers may request (so long as no Default then exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by Administrative Agent and Borrowers, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to Lenders, as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrowers against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (i) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (ii) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loan of 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 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees. That Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any fee pursuant to Section 2.04 (and Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

(b)

Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Administrative Borrower and Administrative Agent agree in writing in their reasonable discretion (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon, as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of the outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the applicable Lenders in accordance with their Percentage Shares of the Loans; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided further that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Xxxxxx’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c)

Replacement of Defaulting Lenders. If any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender, then Administrative Agent or Borrowers may replace such Lender (the “affected Lender”), or cause such affected Lender to be replaced, with another lender (the “replacement Lender”) satisfying the requirements of an Eligible Assignee of a Lender under Section 10.06(a) by having the affected Lender sell and assign all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the replacement Lender pursuant to Section 10.06(b); provided that, if Borrowers seeks to exercise such right, it must do so within one hundred eighty (180) days after it first knows of the occurrence of the event or events giving rise to such right, and neither Administrative

Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to identify or locate a replacement Lender for Borrowers (it being expressly agreed that in such circumstances it is Borrowers’ obligation to identify or locate a replacement Lender that is an Eligible Assignee and is reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent).

SECTION 2.12 LETTERS OF CREDIT.

(a)

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and during the term of this Agreement, Administrative Agent, upon the request of Administrative Borrower, shall cause an Issuing Bank to issue for the account of any Borrower Letters of Credit of a tenor and containing terms acceptable to Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, in a maximum aggregate face amount outstanding at any time not to exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit; provided that, (i) Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to cause to be issued any Letter of Credit with an expiration date after the Maturity Date or if after giving effect to the requested issuance Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit and (ii) if a Letter of Credit is issued with an expiration date after the Maturity Date, Borrowers shall Collateralize such Letter of Credit in full immediately. The term of any Letter of Credit shall not exceed three hundred sixty (360) days from the date of issuance, subject to renewal in accordance with the terms thereof, but in no event to a date beyond the Maturity Date. All Letters of Credit shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(c)(i), and a sum equal to the aggregate Letter of Credit Usage shall be included in calculating outstanding amounts for purposes of determining compliance with Section 2.03(c)(i). Upon any Letter of Credit Disbursement, the amount of such Letter of Credit Disbursement for all purposes under this Agreement shall become and be deemed to be, without any further action on the part of any Person, a Loan made by Lenders on the date of such Letter of Credit Disbursement (but without any requirement for compliance with the conditions precedent to the making of Loans contained in this Agreement).

(b)

Whenever Administrative Borrower desires the issuance of a Letter of Credit, Administrative Xxxxxxxx shall deliver to Administrative Agent a written notice no later than 12:00 noon at least ten (10) Business Days in advance of the proposed date of issuance of a letter of credit request substantially in the form of Exhibit F (a “Letter of Credit Request”). Subject to the terms hereof, Administrative Agent shall endeavor to cause an Issuing Bank to issue a Letter of Credit pursuant to each Letter of Credit Request promptly, but for the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent shall have no liability for any delays. The transmittal by Administrative Borrower of each Letter of Credit Request shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by Borrowers that the Letter of Credit may be issued in accordance with and will not violate any of the requirements of this Section 2.12. Prior to the date of issuance of each Letter of Credit, Administrative Borrower shall provide to Administrative Agent a precise description of the documents and the text of any certificate to be presented by the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit which, if presented by such beneficiary on or prior to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, would require the issuing bank to make payment under such Letter of Credit. Administrative Agent, in its reasonable judgment, may require changes in any such documents and certificates. No Letter of Credit shall require payment against a conforming draft to be made thereunder prior to the second Business Day after the date on which such draft is presented.

(c)

Upon any Letter of Credit Disbursement, (i) Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to have timely given a Borrowing Request to Administrative Agent for a Loan on the date on which such drawing is honored in an amount equal to the amount of such Letter of Credit Disbursement and (ii) without regard to satisfaction of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 and the other terms and conditions of borrowings contained herein, Lenders shall, on the date of such drawing, make a Loan (in accordance with their Percentage Shares) in the amount of such Letter of Credit Disbursement, the proceeds of which shall be applied directly by Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for the amount of such Letter of Credit Disbursement.

(d)

By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit) and without any further action on the part of Issuing Bank or Lenders, Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have granted to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, a participation in each Letter of Credit issued by Issuing Bank, in an amount equal to its Percentage Share of such Letter of Credit, and each such Lender agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of Issuing Bank, such Xxxxxx’s Percentage Share of any Letter of Credit Disbursement made by Issuing Bank under the applicable Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of Issuing Bank, such Xxxxxx’s Percentage Share of each Letter of Credit Disbursement made by Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by Borrowers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or of any reimbursement payment that is required to be refunded (or that Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank elects, based upon the advice of counsel, to refund) to Borrowers for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to deliver to Administrative Agent, for the account of Issuing Bank, an amount equal to its respective Percentage Share of each Letter of Credit Disbursement pursuant to this Section 2.12(d) shall be absolute and unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default or Default or the failure to satisfy any condition set forth in Section 4. If any such Lender fails to make available to Administrative Agent the amount of such Xxxxxx’s Percentage Share of a Letter of Credit Disbursement as provided in this Section, such Lender shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender and Administrative Agent (for the account of Issuing Bank) shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Base Rate until paid in full.

(e)

As between Borrowers and any Lending Party, Borrowers assume all risks of the acts and omissions of such Lending Party and the applicable Issuing Bank (other than for the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lending Party or such Issuing Bank) or misuse of the Letters of Credit by the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Lending Parties shall not be responsible (i) for the accuracy, genuineness or legal effects of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of or any drawing honored under such Letters of Credit even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged, (ii) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit, or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason, (iii) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, telecopy or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher, (iv) for errors in interpretation of technical terms, (v) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document

required to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds thereof, (vi) for the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, of the proceeds of any drawing honored under such Letter of Credit, and (vii) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the issuing bank or the Lender; provided that, the foregoing shall not release any Lending Party or the applicable Issuing Bank for any liability for its gross negligence or willful misconduct. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any of Lending Parties’ rights or powers hereunder. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Lending Party under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lending Party, shall not create any liability of any Lending Party to Borrowers.

(f)

The obligations of Borrowers to reimburse Administrative Agent and Xxxxxxx for drawings honored under the Letters of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit Agreement or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; (ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which any Borrower or any Affiliate of any Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons or entities for whom any such beneficiary or transferee may be acting), Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the transactions contemplated herein or therein or any unrelated transaction; (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other documents presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (iv) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; (v) failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of any drawing; or (vi) that a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; provided that, the foregoing shall not release any Lending Party or the applicable Issuing Bank for any liability for its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment).

(g) Notwithstanding anything herein or in the other Loan Documents to the contrary, the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, and the Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree that, as of and following the First Amendment Effective Time, (i) Lender Parties have no, and shall have no, further obligation to cause an Issuing Bank to issue any Letters of Credit hereunder, (ii) the XX Xxxx Collateral shall constitute a deposit by the respective Lender subject to the first-priority security interest of the Administrative Agent to secure the Lenders’ obligation to make Loans in accordance with their respective Percentage Shares pursuant to Section 2.12(c) of this Agreement, (iii) the Loan Parties have no interest or right, and shall have no interest or right, in respect of the XX Xxxx Collateral and no right to direct its application, and (iv) any application of a Lender’s XX Xxxx Collateral shall be deemed to be a Loan to Borrowers made by such Lender on the date of such application (but without requirement for compliance with the conditions precedent to the making of Loans contained in this Agreement), including pursuant to Section 2.12(c) of this Agreement.

ARTICLE III

THE COLLATERAL

SECTION 3.01 GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST.

Each Loan Party hereby grants, pledges and assigns a security interest in the Collateral to Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Lending Party, to secure the prompt payment in full and performance when due of all of the Secured Obligations. Each Loan Party represents, warrants and covenants to the Lending Parties that: (a) the security interest granted by it herein is and shall at all times continue to be a perfected, first priority (except to the extent set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement or otherwise expressly agreed to in writing by Administrative Agent) security interest in the Collateral (subject only to Permitted Liens); (b) it has rights in and the power to transfer each item of the Collateral upon which it purports to xxxxx x Xxxx pursuant to the Loan Documents, free and clear of any and all Liens or claims of others, other than Permitted Liens; and (c) no effective security agreement, financing statement (as that term is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code and the PPSA, as applicable), or other security or Lien instrument covering all or any part of the Collateral is or will be on file or of record in any public office, except those relating to Permitted Liens. If any Loan Party (other than International Holdings) shall acquire a commercial tort claim (as that term is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code), such Loan Party shall promptly notify Administrative Agent in a writing signed by such Loan Party of the details thereof and grant to Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent. If this Agreement is terminated, Collateral Agent’s Lien in the Collateral shall continue until all Secured Obligations are repaid in full (other than any contingent indemnification obligations arising out of facts and circumstances that are not reasonably identified by Administrative Agent, any Lender, or any Participant at the time of such repayment). At such time as the Secured Obligations have been paid in full and the Lending Parties shall have received a release of all Claims from the Loan Parties, Collateral Agent shall, at Borrowers’ sole cost and expense, release its Liens on the collateral the subject of all Collateral Documents.

SECTION 3.02 AGENTS’ RIGHTS REGARDING THE COLLATERAL.

(a)

Each Agent may, at any time in such Agent’s own name or on behalf of any Loan Party, communicate with Account Debtors and obligors in respect of Accounts to verify to such Agent’s satisfaction, the existence, amount and terms of, and any other matter relating to Accounts. If an Event of Default then exists, each Agent may, (i) in such Agent’s own name or on behalf of any Loan Party, communicate with Account Debtors and obligors in respect of Accounts, Instruments, Chattel Paper or other Collateral to verify to such Agent’s satisfaction, the existence, amount and terms of, and any other matter relating to, Accounts, Instruments, Chattel Paper or other Collateral, and (ii) notify Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on any Collateral that Collateral Agent has a security interest therein and that payments shall be made directly to Collateral Agent. Upon the request of either Agent, each Loan Party shall so notify such Account Debtors and other Persons. Each Loan Party hereby appoints Collateral Agent or Collateral Agent’s designee as such Person’s attorney at any time after an Event of Default exists, with power to endorse such Person’s name upon any notes, acceptance drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment of Collateral.

(b)

Each Loan Party shall remain liable under any evidence of Collateral to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, and neither Agents nor any Lender shall have any obligation or liability whatsoever to any Person under any such Collateral by reason of or arising out of the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and neither Agents nor any Lender shall be required or obligated in any manner (i) to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of any Loan Party that is a party thereto, (ii) to make any payment or inquiry thereunder, or (iii) to take any action of any kind to collect, compromise or enforce any performance or the payment of any amounts that may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times under or pursuant to any Collateral.

(c)

Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, in the event that any Collateral, including proceeds, is evidenced by or consists of Negotiable Collateral, and if and to the extent that perfection or priority of Collateral Agent’s security interest is dependent on or enhanced by possession or control (as such term is used in the PPSA), the Loan Party that is the holder and payee of such Negotiable Collateral, immediately upon the request of either Agent, shall endorse and deliver physical possession of such Negotiable Collateral and all agreements and documents related thereto, to Collateral Agent or to a custodian to hold on behalf of Collateral Agent and take all other steps necessary to ensure that the Collateral Agent has control (as such term is used in the PPSA) of such Negotiable Collateral. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, all Negotiable Collateral shall be delivered to Collateral Agent or a custodian for the benefit of Collateral Agent, duly endorsed by the payee thereof to the order of Collateral Agent.

(d)

Either Agent (through any of its officers, employees, or agents) shall have the right, from time to time hereafter (i) to inspect and examine the Books and Records and the Collateral, (ii) to communicate directly with any and all Account Debtors to verify the existence and terms of Collateral, and (iii) to check, test, and appraise the Collateral, or any portion thereof, in order to verify each Loan Party’s financial condition or the amount, quality, value, condition of, or any other matter relating to, the Collateral, and Borrower shall permit any designated representative of either Agent to visit and inspect any of the properties of any Loan Party to inspect and to discuss its finances and properties and Collateral, during normal business hours. Without limiting the provisions of Section 6.10, each Loan Party shall, with respect to any Collateral owned, leased or otherwise controlled by it, upon prior appointment during normal business hours:

(i) provide access to such Collateral to each Agent and its officers, employees and agents, as frequently as is commercially reasonable or, at any time an Event of Default exists, as frequently as such Agent determines to be appropriate;

(ii) permit each Agent or any of its officers, employees and agents to inspect, audit and make extracts and copies (or take originals if reasonably necessary) from all of such Loan Party’s Books and Records;

(iii) permit each Agent to inspect, review, evaluate and make physical verifications and appraisals of the Inventory and other Collateral in any manner and through any means that such Agent considers reasonably advisable, and such Loan Party agrees to render to each Agent, at Borrower’s sole cost and expense, such clerical and other assistance as may be reasonably requested with regard thereto; and

(iv) facilitate such testing of Accounts and verification of invoices by each Agent to such extent and in such form such Agent may require; provided, that, if a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the rights in this clause (d) shall extend to each Lending Party and the Agents shall have such access at any and all times.

(e)

At any time that an Event of Default exists, Borrowers, at their sole cost and expense, shall cause the certified public accountant(s) then engaged by Borrower to prepare and deliver to Agents at any time and from time to time, promptly upon either Agent’s request therefor, the following reports: (i) a reconciliation of all Accounts; (ii) an aging of all Accounts; (iii) trial balances with respect to all Accounts; and (iv) test verifications of such Accounts as Administrative Agent may request. Borrower, at its sole cost and expense, shall also cause such certified independent public accountants to deliver to Administrative Agent the results of any physical verifications of all or any portion of the Inventory made or observed by such accountants when and if such verification is conducted. Administrative Agent shall be permitted to observe and consult with such accountants in the performance of these tasks.

(f)

Beyond the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of Collateral in either Agents’ possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by either Agent or any Lender hereunder, neither Agents nor any Lender shall have any duty or liability to exercise or preserve any rights, privileges or powers pertaining to the Collateral.

SECTION 3.03

Each Loan Party hereby grants to Collateral Agent an irrevocable, non-exclusive license, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Loan Party, to use, transfer, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned, licensed to, or hereafter acquired by such Loan Party, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof (including, without limitation, access to any cloud-based software), and represents, promises and agrees that any such license or sublicense is not and will not be in conflict with the contractual or commercial rights of any third Person or applicable Laws; provided, that such license will terminate on the date on which all Secured Obligations are paid in full; provided further that, upon the request of Collateral Agent (acting reasonably), the applicable Loan Party will use reasonable commercial efforts to obtain from any third party a security interest in any license of Intellectual Property granted by such third party to such Loan Party. In addition, on such periodic basis as either Agent shall require, Borrower shall (i) provide Agents with a report of all new patentable, copyrightable, or trademarkable materials acquired or generated by any Loan Party during the prior period, (ii) cause all Intellectual Property acquired or generated by any Loan Party that is not already the subject of a registration with the appropriate filing office (or an application therefor diligently prosecuted) to be registered with such appropriate filing office in a manner sufficient to impart constructive notice of such Loan Party’s ownership thereof, and (iii) cause to be prepared, executed, and delivered to Agents supplemental schedules to the applicable Collateral Documents to identify such Intellectual Property as being subject to the security interests created thereunder; provided, that neither Parent, nor any Borrower nor any Subsidiary of a Borrower shall register with the U.S. Copyright Office (or similar or equivalent register in any other jurisdiction) any unregistered Copyrights (whether in existence on the Effective Date or thereafter acquired, arising, or developed) unless (A) such Loan Party provides Administrative Agent with written notice of its intent to register such Copyrights not less than thirty (30) days prior to the date of the proposed registration, and (B) prior to such registration, the applicable Person executes and delivers to Collateral Agent a copyright security agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, supplemental Schedules to any existing copyright security agreement or such other documentation as Administrative Agent reasonably deems necessary in order to perfect and continue perfected Collateral Agent’s Liens on such Copyrights following such registration.

SECTION 3.04 AUTHORIZATION TO FILE FINANCING STATEMENTS.

Each Loan Party hereby authorizes Collateral Agent to file, without notice to any Loan Party, financing statements under the Uniform Commercial Code, the PPSA or other applicable Laws (including notices filed with the United States Copyright Office and the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the Canadian Intellectual Property Office and any other office, registrar or similar body with which such filings may be made) with all appropriate jurisdictions to create, perfect, maintain, preserve or protect Collateral Agent’s and Lenders’ interest or rights hereunder or any Collateral Document in the Collateral the subject hereof or thereof, including a notice that any disposition of all or any such collateral that is not otherwise permitted hereunder, whether by any Loan Party or any other Person, shall be deemed to violate the rights of Collateral Agent and Lenders hereunder and under applicable Laws. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Loan Party hereby: (a) authorizes Collateral Agent to file, without notice to any such Loan Party, financing statements under the Uniform Commercial Code with all appropriate jurisdictions listing (1) with respect to International Holdings, all right, title and interest of International Holdings, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising (or in which International Holdings has rights or the power to transfer rights to a secured party), in, to, or upon, (i) all Intellectual Property and all Proceeds (in whatever form or nature) of the foregoing; and (ii) all Proceeds (in whatever form or nature) of an International Business Disposition, and/or appropriate summaries descriptions thereof; and (2) with respect to any Loan Party (other than International Holdings), all assets or all personal property of such Loan Party as the collateral covered by such financing statements; and (b) ratifies and approves the filing of any financing statements by or on behalf of Collateral Agent or any Lender (or any such Person’s predecessor(s)-in-interest) prior to the Effective Date against such Loan Party and listing the Collateral or all assets or all personal property of such Loan Party as the collateral covered by such financing statements.

(b)

In the event that an event or circumstance occurs in between the monthly dates on which the Budgets are otherwise due pursuant to Section 6.24(a) which would make the then current Budget materially inaccurate, within two (2) Business Days of becoming aware of such event or circumstance, the Administrative Borrower shall provide notice of such event or circumstance to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and promptly deliver a revised Budget reflecting the impact thereof.

Each Budget delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be accompanied by such supporting documentation as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required DDTL Approving Lenders) and shall be prepared in good faith, with due care and based upon assumptions the Borrower believe to be reasonable.

SECTION 8.02 RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

(a)

Rights and Remedies Generally. While an Event of Default exists, Agents may (or, upon the request of the Required DDTL Approving Lenders, shall), without notice or demand, do any or all of the following:

(i) terminate all Commitments and declare all Obligations (including any applicable Prepayment Premium and Make-Whole Amount) immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section 8.01(f) occurs, all Commitments shall terminate and all Obligations outstanding shall immediately be due and payable without any action by any Agent or any Lender);

(ii) stop advancing money or extending credit for Xxxxxxxx’s benefit under this Agreement or under any other agreement between Borrower and any Agent or any Lender;

(iii) settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors on accounts of any Loan Party for amounts on terms and in any order that Administrative Agent considers advisable, notify any Person owing any Loan Party money of Collateral Agent’s Lien on such funds, and verify the amount of such account. Each Loan Party shall collect all payments in trust for the applicable Agent for the benefit of Lenders and, if requested by Administrative Agent, immediately deliver the payments to Lenders in the form received from the Account Debtor, with proper endorsement for deposit;

(iv) make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its Lien upon the Collateral or require the Loan Parties (and each Loan Party hereby agrees) to assemble the Collateral if Administrative Agent so requests and make it available as Administrative Agent so designates. Any Agent or any Lender may enter the premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon and pay all expenses incurred. Each Loan Party grants Agents for the benefit of Lenders a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of any Agent’s or any other Lending Party’s rights or remedies;

(viii) demand and receive possession of the Books and Records of each Loan Party;

and

(ix) exercise all default rights and remedies available to Lending Parties under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all default remedies provided under the Uniform Commercial Code and the PPSA, as applicable (including disposal of the collateral (including all Collateral) pursuant to the terms thereof).

(b)

Power of Attorney. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably appoints each Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact, which power of attorney such Agent may exercise at any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to: (i) if such Loan Party refuses to, or fails timely to execute and deliver any of the documents required to be delivered by it pursuant to the terms hereof, sign the name of such Loan Party on any of such documents; (ii) endorse such Loan Party’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security, sign such Loan Party’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any account or drafts against Account Debtors or sign such Loan Party’s name on any notices to Account Debtors; (iii) send requests for verification of Accounts; (iv) endorse any Borrower’s name on any collection item that may come into such Agent’s possession; (v) make, settle, and adjust all claims under such Loan Party’s policies of insurance and make all determinations and decisions with respect to such policies of insurance; (vi) take control, in any manner, of any item of payment or proceeds relating to any Collateral; (vii) prepare, file, and sign such Loan Party’s name to a proof of claim in bankruptcy or similar document against any Account Debtor, or to any notice of lien, assignment, or satisfaction of lien or similar document in connection with any of the Collateral; (viii) receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to such Loan Party, and notify postal authorities to change the address for delivery thereof to such address as such Agent may designate; (ix) use the information recorded on or contained in any data processing equipment, computer hardware, and software relating to the Collateral; (x) settle and adjust disputes and claims respecting the Accounts, Chattel Paper or General Intangibles directly with Account Debtors, for amounts and upon terms that such Agent determines to be reasonable, and such Agent may cause to be executed and delivered any documents and releases that such Agent determines to be necessary; (xi) at any time file UCC-3 assignments or PPSA financing change statements, as applicable, reflecting Collateral Agent as assignee of such Loan Party with respect to UCC-1 and PPSA financing statements filed by such Loan Party in connection with Collateral; (xii) cause an Account Debtor’s insurers to add such Agent as loss payee under the relevant insurance policy; (xiii) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; (xiv) transfer any Collateral into the name of Collateral Agent for the benefit of Lenders or a third party as the Uniform Commercial Code and the PPSA, as applicable, permits; and (xv) do all other acts and things necessary, in Administrative Agent’s determination, to fulfill the obligations of Borrowers and the other Loan Parties under this

150

Agreement. Each Loan Party hereby appoints each Agent as its lawful attorney-in-fact to sign such Loan Party’s name on any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of any security interest in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations have been repaid in full (other than any contingent indemnification obligations arising out of facts and circumstances that are not reasonably identified by such Agent, any Lender, or any Participant at the time of such repayment). Each Agent’s foregoing appointment as the attorney-in-fact for each Loan Party, and all of each Agent’s rights and powers, being coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations have been fully paid and performed when due (as applicable).

(c)

Protective Advances.

(i) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, each Agent, any Lender (or any of them) with the consent of Administrative Agent shall be authorized, in their sole discretion, to make Loans (“Protective Advances”) if such Agent deems such Loans necessary or desirable (a) to preserve or protect Collateral, or to enhance the collectability or repayment of Obligations, (b) to obtain any insurance if any Loan Party fails to obtain the insurance required by the terms hereof or fails to pay any premium thereon, (c); to pay any other amounts chargeable to Loan Parties under any Loan Documents, including interest, costs, fees and expenses. Any Agent or any Lender which intends to make any Protective Advance shall use commercially reasonable efforts, to the extent practicable, to consult with the other Agent and/or the other Lenders (as applicable) prior to making any Protective Advance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall any Agent or any Lender have any duty or obligation to make any Protective Advance(s). All Protective Advances paid shall constitute expenses reimbursable under Section 10.04, shall be immediately due and payable, shall bear cash interest until paid at the then highest interest rate applicable to any of the Obligations and shall be secured by the Collateral. Required DDTL Approving Lenders may at any time revoke any Agent’s and any Xxxxxx’s authority to make Protective Advances hereunder by written notice to Administrative Agent. Absent such revocation, such Agent’s determination that funding of a Protective Advance is appropriate shall be conclusive. Each Agent will use good faith commercially reasonable efforts (with no liability for failing to do so) to provide Administrative Borrower with notice of Agents or Lenders obtaining any insurance on behalf of Administrative Borrower or any other Loan Party at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. The making of any Protective Advances shall not be or be deemed to be an agreement to make Protective Advances in similar or different circumstances in the future and shall not operate or be deemed to operate as a waiver by any Agent or any Lender of any Event of Default.

(ii) The provisions of this Section 8.02(c) are for the exclusive benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders and are not intended to benefit Borrowers (or any other Loan Party) in any way.

(d)

Application of Funds.

(i) No Loan Party shall have the right to specify the order or the accounts to which Administrative Agent shall allocate or apply any payments required to be made by any Loan Party to Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders or otherwise received by Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders under this Agreement when any such allocation or application is not specified elsewhere in this Agreement.

151

(ii) All payments or prepayments to Administrative Agent or any Lender, and proceeds of Collateral and any other amounts received on account of the Obligations shall be applied by Administrative Agent and the Lenders until exhausted in the following order:

(A) first, (i) to the Administrative Agent, to pay all fees, costs, expenses and indemnification payments then due to Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents (excluding any Protective Advances made by Administrative Agent) and (ii) to Xxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP as counsel for certain of the Lenders to pay all amounts then due to Xxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP under the Lender Fee Letter, provided, however, that no payments shall be made under this clause (ii) until all payments then due under clause (i) have been paid in full;

In the event that the Borrower does not pay, for any reason or for no reason, at the time, in the order, and in the amount set forth in the clause (E) above, any portion of the Incremental Delayed Draw Exit Fee, then the other Lenders shall, on a pari passu basis and severally but not jointly or jointly and severally, deliver or cause to be delivered any amounts received under the foregoing clauses (F) – (N) to the Incremental Lenders, on a pari basis, up to the amount of such Incremental Delayed Draw Exit Fee, until the Incremental Lenders shall have received in full an amount equal to the Incremental Delayed Draw Exit Fees they would have received in accordance with the provisions of clause (E) above, and the Borrowers shall jointly and severally pay to such other Lenders at the time, supplemental amounts, in addition to the amounts specified under clauses (F) – (N) or otherwise in the Loan Documents, sufficient to fully reimburse or fund such payments made or caused to be made by such other Lenders to the Incremental Lenders under this paragraph.

After payment in full of all Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations), any surplus remaining shall be paid to Borrowers or other Persons legally entitled thereto; if any deficiency exists, the Loan Parties shall remain liable to Administrative Agent and Lenders for such deficiency. If Administrative Agent or any Lender, in its good faith business judgment, directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of any collateral (including the Collateral), Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, shall have the option, exercisable at any time, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of the purchase price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by Administrative Agent or such Lender of cash therefor.

(e)

Cash Collateralization. With respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding at the time of the acceleration of the Obligations under Section 8.02(a) or otherwise at any time after the Maturity Date, Borrowers shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account established by or on behalf of Administrative Agent an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate Letter of Credit Usage. Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be under the sole dominion and control of Administrative Agent and applied by Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account, after all such Letters of Credit shall

154

have expired or been fully drawn upon shall be applied to repay the other Obligations. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon and all Obligations shall have been satisfied, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned to Borrowers or to such other Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto. If Borrowers fail to provide Collateralization as required by this Section 8.02(e), Lenders may (and, upon direction of Administrative Agent, shall) advance, as Loans the amount of the cash collateral required pursuant to the definition of Collateralization so that the then existing Letter of Credit Usage is cash collateralized in accordance with the definition of Collateralization (whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 4.02 are satisfied).

(f)

Agents’ Liability for Collateral. So long as Agents and Lenders comply with banking practices regarding the safekeeping of any collateral the subject of the Collateral Documents, Agents and Lenders shall not be liable or responsible for: (i) the safekeeping of all or any such collateral; (ii) any loss or damage to all or any such collateral; (iii) any diminution in the value of all or any such collateral; or (iv) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of any collateral the subject of the Collateral Documents.

(g)

No Waiver. Any Agent’s or any Lender’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by any Loan Party of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of such Agent or such Lender thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. Agents and Lenders have all rights and remedies provided under the Uniform Commercial Code, the PPSA, by law, or in equity. Any amounts paid by any Agent or any Lender on any Loan Party’s behalf as provided herein are expenses reimbursable under Section 10.04 and shall bear interest at the highest interest rate then applicable to any of the Obligations and shall be secured by the collateral the subject of the Collateral Documents. No payments by any Agent or any Lender shall be deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or a waiver of any Event of Default by any Agent or any Lender.

155

Each Agent also may rely

156

upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of the Loans that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a specified Lending Party, Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lending Party, unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lending Party prior to the making of the Loans.

SECTION 9.06 RESIGNATION AND REPLACEMENT OF AGENTS.

(a)

Either Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to Lending Parties and Borrowers. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, Required DDTL Approving Lenders shall have the right, with, unless an Event of Default exists, the consent of Borrowers (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by Required DDTL Approving Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may on behalf of Lending Parties, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth in this Section 9.06; provided, that, if such Agent shall notify Lending Parties and Borrowers that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice (the “Resignation Effective Date”).

(b)

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Required DDTL Approving Lenders may, by notice in writing to the Borrower and the Agents remove any Person as Agent, and appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required DDTL Approving Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required DDTL Approving Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date. With respect to each Letter of Credit that are outstanding as of the Removal Effective Date, the Borrowers within seventy-five (75) days after the Removal Effective Date shall: (i) cause such Letter of Credit to be returned undrawn; or (ii) cause the Issuing Bank of such Letter of Credit to release the Administrative Agent from reimbursement obligations in respect of such Letter of Credit, and shall timely deliver written evidence thereof to the Lender Parties and the outgoing Agent. In the event that WSFS is removed as an Agent, those certain Cash Collateral Agreements, dated as of the First Amendment Effective Time, between WSFS and each of the Lenders party thereto, will remain in favor of WSFS and not transfer to any successor agent, but any application of the Cash Collateral (as defined therein) shall nonetheless be deemed to be a Loan to Borrowers as provided under Section 2 of the First Amendment and Section 2.12(c) hereof.

157

(c)

With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Agent is appointed) and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the successor Agent is appointed as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 9.06). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article IX and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Agent was acting as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable.

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

Neither any Agent nor any other Lending Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any asset in favor of Borrowers or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower is made to any Agent or any other Lending Party, or any Agent or any other Lending Party exercises its 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

167

aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by any Agent or any other Lending Party in such Person’s discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, interim receiver, receiver and manager, monitor or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then: (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred; and (b) each Lending Party severally agrees to pay to the applicable Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by such Agent plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The obligations of each Lending Party under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither any Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Agents and each other Lending Party, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligation hereunder except: (i) in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section 10.06; (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section 10.06; or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section 10.06; and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void.

168

delayed) and (II) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, that Borrowers shall be deemed to have consented to any such amount unless they shall have objected thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent within five Business Days following the date Borrowers receive notice of such amount.

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all of the assigning Xxxxxx’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or Commitment assigned.

The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to Administrative Agent an Administrative Detail Form and all documentation and other information with respect to the assignee that is required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti- money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act.

(v) No Assignment to any Loan Party. Except with the consent of the Required DDTL Approving Lenders, in writing, no such assignment shall be made to any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

(vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

169

Upon request, Xxxxxxxxx (at their sole expense) shall execute and deliver Notes to the assignee Lending Party. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section 10.06.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents: (A) no Lender shall be required to comply with this Section 10.06(b) in connection with any assignment of all or any portion of its rights and other obligations under or relating to the Loans, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to any Affiliate of such Lender (other than any Loan Party, any Affiliate thereof or a natural person) or any Approved Fund related to such Lender, and such Lender shall have no obligation to disclose any such assignment to any such Person; provided, that such Lender shall continue to be liable as a “Lender” under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents until such time, if at all, that such Lender and such other Person have complied with the provisions of this Section 10.06(b) in order for such other Person to become a “Lender” hereunder; (B) a Lender may pledge, or grant a security interest in, all or any portion of its rights and other obligations under or relating to the Loans, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to a financial institution or other funding source (other than any Loan Party, any Affiliate thereof or any natural person) or any trustee or agent therefor in support of obligations owing by such Lender to such Person(s); (C) any Lender which is a fund may pledge, or grant a security interest in, all or any portion of its rights and other obligations under or relating to the Loans, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to its trustee (except if such trustee is any Loan Party, any Affiliate thereof or a natural person) in support of its obligation to its trustee; and (D) no pledge or grant of a security interest pursuant to the immediately preceding clauses (B) or (C) shall release the transferor Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and such Lender such Lender shall continue to be liable as a “Lender” under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents until such time, if at all, that such Lender and such other Person have complied with the provisions of this Section 10.06(b) in order for such other Person to become a “Lender” hereunder.

(c)

Register. Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose solely as a non-fiduciary agent on behalf of Borrowers, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption and right to principal and stated interest in the Obligations delivered to it and a Register. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and Borrowers and Lending Parties may 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 Borrowers and each Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior written notice. In addition, at any time that a request for a consent for a material or substantive change to the Loan Documents is pending, any Lender wishing to consult with other Lenders in connection therewith may request and receive from Administrative Agent a copy of the Register. The parties intend that and the Register shall be maintained such that the Loans are in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 165(j) 871(h)(2), 881(c)(2) and 4701 of the Code and any related

170

Treasury regulations (or any other relevant or successor provisions of the Code or of such Treasury regulations). No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 10.06(b).

(d)

Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrowers or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, any Loan Party or any Loan Party’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 2.08(d) with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s). Any document pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Person shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided, that such document may provide that such Person will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. Each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.07 and Section 2.08, (subject to the requirements and limitations therein) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.08(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender who shall hold such documents on its behalf and on behalf of the Administrative Agent and Borrowers)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.06(b); provided, that such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.07 or Section 2.08, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by applicable Laws, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender; provided, that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.09 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting for this purpose solely as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); 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 any commitments, 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 commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form under the Code, including Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or its successor. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Each Participant Register is expected to be maintained such that the Loans are in registered form for the purposes of the Code. For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

171

(e)

Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender owing to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(f)

Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Laws, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or any other similar laws of any province or territory of Canada.

SECTION 10.07 TREATMENT OF CERTAIN INFORMATION; CONFIDENTIALITY.

Each Agent and each other Lending Party each agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may be disclosed (including by means of the Electronic Platform): (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors, representatives and funding and financing sources on a “need to know” basis solely in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and agree to keep such Information confidential on the same terms as provided herein); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners); provided that, (i) in each case, unless specifically prohibited by applicable Law or court order, each Lending Party and the Agent shall use its reasonable best efforts to promptly notify the Borrower of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with an examination of the financial condition of such Lending Party or Agent by such governmental agency or other routine examinations of such Lending Party or Agent by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information; (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, provided that, (i) in each case, unless specifically prohibited by applicable Law or court order, each Lending Party and the Agent shall use its reasonable best efforts to promptly notify the Borrower of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with an examination of the financial condition of such Lending Party or Agent by such governmental agency or other routine examinations of such Lending Party or Agent by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information and (ii) each Lending Party and the Agent shall use reasonable best efforts to ensure that such Information is kept confidential in connection with the exercise of such remedies; (f) to “Gold Sheets” or other similar bank trade publications; provided, that such information consist solely of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications; (g) unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.07 to: (i) any assignee of or

172

Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement; or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Loan Party; (h) with the consent of Borrowers; (i) to the Term Loan Agent or any Convertible Notes Agent; or (j) to the extent such Information: (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.07; or (ii) becomes available to any Agent, any Lending Party or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other any Loan Party and not in contravention of this Section 10.07. For purposes of this Section 10.07, “Information” means all information (including financial information) received from any Loan Party relating to such Loan Party or its business, other than any such information that is available to any Agent or any other Lending Party on a non-confidential basis, and not in contravention of this Section 10.07, prior to disclosure by such Loan Party. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 10.07: (A) shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information; and (B) shall not disclose any financial information concerning any Loan Party or its business (including any information based on any such financial information) or use any such financial information for commercial purposes without the prior written consent of the applicable Loan Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Loan Party authorizes each Lending Party to make appropriate announcements of the financial arrangements entered into among the Loan Parties, Agents, and Lenders, including announcements which are commonly known as “tombstones,” in such publications and to such selected parties as each Lending Party may in its sole and absolute discretion deem appropriate.

SECTION 10.08 RIGHT OF SETOFF.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each of Lending Parties and their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, to set off any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lending Party to be applied to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, irrespective of whether or not such Lending Party shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of Borrowers or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lending Party different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such obligations. The rights of each Lending Party and its Affiliates under this Section 10.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lending Party or its Affiliates may have. Each Lending Party agrees to notify Borrowers and Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NO LENDING PARTY SHALL EXERCISE, OR ATTEMPT TO EXERCISE, ANY RIGHT OF SET OFF, BANKER’S LIEN, OR THE LIKE, AGAINST ANY DEPOSIT ACCOUNT OR PROPERTY OF ANY BORROWER OR ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY HELD OR MAINTAINED BY SUCH LENDING PARTY WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.

SECTION 10.09 INTEREST RATE LIMITATION.

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. If any 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 Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by an Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws: (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.

173

SECTION 10.10 COUNTERPARTS; INTEGRATION; EFFECTIVENESS.

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous documents, agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed and delivered by Administrative Agent and when Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telefacsimile or in portable document format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.11 SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by each Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by such Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that such Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of the making of any Loan, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loans or any other Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations) have not been paid in full.

SECTION 10.12 SEVERABILITY.

If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 10.13 USA PATRIOT ACT NOTICE.

Each Lending Party that is subject to the Act and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lending Party) hereby notifies Borrowers and each other Loan Party that, pursuant to the requirements of the Act, they are each required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower and each other Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and each other Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lending Party or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Borrower and each other Loan Party in accordance with the Act.

174

SECTION 10.14 GUARANTY OF OBLIGATIONS.

(a)

Guaranty. Each Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Administrative Agent and the other Lending Parties the full and prompt payment when due (whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise) and performance of the Obligations (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guaranteed Obligations include interest that, but for a proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against any Borrower for such interest in any such proceeding.

(b)

Separate Obligation. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the Guaranteed Obligations are separate and distinct from any Debt arising under or in connection with any other document, including under any provision of this Agreement other than this Section 10.14, executed at any time by such Guarantor in favor of Administrative Agent or any other Lending Party; and (ii) such Guarantor shall pay and perform all of the Guaranteed Obligations as required under this Section 10.14, and Administrative Agent and the other Lending Parties may enforce any and all of their respective rights and remedies hereunder, without regard to any other document, including any provision of this Agreement other than this Section 10.14, at any time executed by such Guarantor in favor of Administrative Agent or any other Lending Party, irrespective of whether any such other document, or any provision thereof or hereof, shall for any reason become unenforceable or any of the Debt thereunder shall have been discharged, whether by performance, avoidance or otherwise. Each Guarantor acknowledges that, in providing benefits to Borrower, Lending Parties are relying upon the enforceability of this Section10.14 and the Guaranteed Obligations as separate and distinct Debt of such Guarantor, and each Guarantor agrees that Lending Parties would be denied the full benefit of their bargain if at any time this Section 10.14 or the Guaranteed Obligations were treated any differently. The fact that the guaranty is set forth in this Agreement rather than in a separate guaranty document is for the convenience of Borrowers and Guarantors and shall in no way impair or adversely affect the rights or benefits of Lending Parties under this Section 10.14. Each Guarantor agrees to execute and deliver a separate document, immediately upon request at any time of any Agent or any other Lending Party, evidencing such Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 10.14. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, a separate action or actions may be brought against such Guarantor, whether or not Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person is joined therein or a separate action or actions are brought against any Borrower, any such other Guarantor or any such other Person.

(c)

Limitation of Guaranty. To the extent that any court of competent jurisdiction shall impose by final judgment under applicable Laws (including Sections 544 and 548 of the Bankruptcy Code) any limitations on the amount of any Guarantor’s liability with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations that any Agent or any other Lending Party can enforce under this Section 10.14, Agents and the other Lending Parties by their acceptance hereof accept such limitation on the amount of such Guarantor’s liability hereunder to the extent needed to make this Section 10.14 fully enforceable and non-avoidable.

(d)

Liability of Guarantors. The liability of any Guarantor under this Section 10.14 shall be irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional, and shall not be affected by any circumstance that might constitute a discharge of a surety or guarantor other than the indefeasible payment and performance in full of all Guaranteed Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees as follows:

(i) such Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall be the immediate, direct, and primary obligation of such Guarantor and shall not be contingent upon any Agent’s or any Lending Party’s exercise or enforcement of any remedy it may have against any Borrower or any other Person, or against any collateral or other security for any Guaranteed Obligations;

175

(ii) this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not merely of collectability;

(iii) Agents and the other Lending Parties may enforce this Section 10.14 upon the occurrence of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute among Agents and the other Lending Parties, on the one hand, and any Borrower or any other Person, on the other hand, with respect to the existence of such Event of Default;

(iv) such Guarantor’s payment of a portion, but not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge such Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations remaining unsatisfied; and

(v) such Guarantor’s liability with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be impaired or affected by, nor shall such Guarantor be exonerated or discharged by, any of the following events:

(A) any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law;

(B) any limitation, discharge, or cessation of the liability of any Borrower or any other Person for any Guaranteed Obligations due to any statute, regulation or rule of law, or any invalidity or unenforceability in whole or in part of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or the Loan Documents;

(C) any merger, amalgamation, acquisition, consolidation or change in structure of any Borrower, any Subsidiary of a Borrower, or any other guarantor or Person, or any sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any or all of the assets or shares of any Borrower or any other Person;

(D) any assignment or other transfer, in whole or in part, of any Agent’s or any Lending Party’s interests in and rights under this Agreement (including this Section 10.14) or the other Loan Documents;

(E) any claim, defense, counterclaim or setoff, other than that of prior performance, that any Borrower, such Guarantor, any other Guarantor or any other Person may have or assert, including any defense of incapacity or lack of corporate or other authority to execute any of the Loan Documents;

(F) any Agent’s or any other Lending Party’s amendment, modification, renewal, extension, cancellation or surrender of any Loan Document or any Guaranteed Obligations;

(G) any Agent’s or any Lending Party’s exercise or non-exercise of any power, right or remedy with respect to any Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral;

176

(H) any Agent’s or any Lending Party’s vote, claim, distribution, election, acceptance, action or inaction in any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or

(I) any other guaranty, whether by such Guarantor or any other Person, of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of Borrowers to any Agent or any other Lending Party.

(e)

Consents of Guarantors. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally consents and agrees that, without notice to or further assent from such Guarantor:

(i) the principal amount of the Guaranteed Obligations may be increased or decreased and additional indebtedness or obligations of Borrowers under the Loan Documents may be incurred and the time, manner, place or terms of any payment under any Loan Document may be extended or changed, by one or more amendments, modifications, renewals or extensions of any Loan Document or otherwise;

(ii) the time for any Borrower’s (or any other Person’s) performance of or compliance with any term, covenant or agreement on its part to be performed or observed under any Loan Document may be extended, or such performance or compliance waived, or failure in or departure from such performance or compliance consented to, all in such manner and upon such terms as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, and the other Lending Parties (as applicable under the relevant Loan Documents) may deem proper;

(iii) any Agent and the other Lending Parties may request and accept other guaranties and may take and hold security as collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations, and may, from time to time, in whole or in part, exchange, sell, surrender, release, subordinate, modify, waive, rescind, compromise or extend such other guaranties or security and may permit or consent to any such action or the result of any such action, and may apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof; and

(iv) any Agent or the other Lending Parties may exercise, or waive or otherwise refrain from exercising, any other right, remedy, power or privilege even if the exercise thereof affects or eliminates any right of subrogation or any other right of such Guarantor against any Borrower.

(f)

Guarantor’s Waivers. Each Guarantor waives and agrees not to assert:

(i) any right to require any Agent or any other Lending Party to proceed against any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person, or to pursue any other right, remedy, power or privilege of Administrative Agent or any other Lending Party whatsoever;

(ii) the defense of the statute of limitations in any action hereunder or for the collection or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(iii) any defense arising by reason of any lack of corporate or other authority or any other defense of any Borrower, such Guarantor or any other Person;

(iv) any defense based upon Administrative Agent’s or any Lending Party’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations;

177

(v) any rights to set offs and counterclaims;

(vi) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable Laws limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties, or that may conflict with the terms of this Section 10.14; and

(vii) any and all notice of the acceptance of this guaranty, and any and all notice of the creation, renewal, modification, extension or accrual of the Guaranteed Obligations, or the reliance by Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and the other Lending Parties upon this Guaranty, or the exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder. The Guaranteed Obligations shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted, incurred and permitted to exist in reliance upon this Guaranty. Each Guarantor waives promptness, diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment, notice of default, dishonor or nonpayment and all other notices to or upon Borrowers, each Guarantor or any other Person with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations.

(g)

Financial Condition of Borrowers. No Guarantor shall have any right to require any Agent or any other Lending Party to obtain or disclose any information with respect to: the financial condition or character of Borrowers or the ability of Borrowers to pay and perform the Guaranteed Obligations; the Guaranteed Obligations; any collateral or other security for any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; the existence or nonexistence of any other guarantees of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; any action or inaction on the part of any Agent or any other Lending Party or any other Person; or any other matter, fact or occurrence whatsoever. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that it has undertaken its own independent investigation of the financial condition of Borrowers and all other matters pertaining to this Guaranty and further acknowledges that it is not relying in any manner upon any representation or statement of any Agent or any other Lending Party with respect thereto.

(h)

Subrogation. Until the Guaranteed Obligations shall be satisfied in full and the Commitments shall be terminated, each Guarantor shall not have, and shall not directly or indirectly exercise: (i) any rights that it may acquire by way of subrogation under this Section 10.14, by any payment hereunder or otherwise; (ii) any rights of contribution, indemnification, reimbursement or similar suretyship claims arising out of this Section 10.14; or any other right that it might otherwise have or acquire (in any way whatsoever) that could entitle it at any time to share or participate in any right, remedy or security of any Agent or any other Lending Party as against any Borrower or other Guarantors or any other Person, whether in connection with this Section 10.14, any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of the foregoing rights at any time when all the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of Agents and the other Lending Parties and shall forthwith be paid to Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.

(i)

Subordination. All payments on account of all indebtedness, liabilities and other obligations of any Borrower to any Guarantor or to any other Subordinated Guarantor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether due or to become due, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined (the “Guarantor Subordinated Debt”) shall be subject, subordinate and junior in right of payment and

178

exercise of remedies, to the extent and in the manner set forth herein, to the prior payment in full in cash or cash equivalents of the Guaranteed Obligations. As long as any of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations) shall remain outstanding and unpaid, each Guarantor shall not accept or receive any payment or distribution by or on behalf of any Borrower or any other Guarantor, directly or indirectly, or assets of any Borrower or any other Guarantor, of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, including on account of the purchase, redemption or other acquisition of Guarantor Subordinated Debt, as a result of any collection, sale or other disposition of collateral, or by setoff, exchange or in any other manner, for or on account of the Guarantor Subordinated Debt (“Guarantor Subordinated Debt Payments”), except that, so long as an Event of Default does not then exist, any Guarantor shall be entitled to accept and receive payments on its Guarantor Subordinated Debt, in accordance with past business practices of such Guarantor and such Borrower (or any other applicable Guarantor) and not in contravention of any Law or the terms of the Loan Documents.

If any Guarantor Subordinated Debt Payments shall be received in contravention of this Section 10.14, such Guarantor Subordinated Debt Payments shall be held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the other Lending Parties and shall be paid over or delivered to Administrative Agent for application to the payment in full in cash or cash equivalents of all Guaranteed Obligations remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to give effect to this Section 10.14 after giving effect to any concurrent payments or distributions to Administrative Agent and the other Lending Parties in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(j)

Continuing Guaranty. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and agreement of subordination and shall continue in effect and be binding upon each Guarantor until termination of the Commitments and payment and performance in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, including Guaranteed Obligations which may exist continuously or which may arise from time to time under successive transactions, and each Guarantor expressly acknowledges that this guaranty shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding that there may be periods in which no Guaranteed Obligations exist. This Guaranty shall continue in effect and be binding upon each Guarantor until actual receipt by Administrative Agent of written notice from such Guarantor of its intention to discontinue this Guaranty as to future transactions (which notice shall not be effective until 11:00 a.m. on the day that is five Business Days following such receipt); provided that no revocation or termination of this guaranty shall affect in any way any rights of Administrative Agent, or any Lending Party hereunder with respect to any Guaranteed Obligations arising or outstanding on the date of receipt of such notice, including any subsequent continuation, extension, or renewal thereof, or change in the terms or conditions thereof, or any Guaranteed Obligations made or created after such date to the extent made or created pursuant to a legally binding commitment of any Lending Party in existence as of the date of such revocation (collectively, “Existing Guaranteed Obligations”), and the sole effect of such notice shall be to exclude from this Guaranty Guaranteed Obligations thereafter arising which are unconnected to any Existing Guaranteed Obligations.

(k)

Reinstatement. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated and revived, as the case may be, if, for any reason, any payment of the Guaranteed Obligations by or on behalf of any Borrower (or receipt of any proceeds of collateral) shall be rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, voided or

179

otherwise required to be repaid to any Borrower, its estate, trustee, receiver or any other Person (including under any Debtor Relief Law), or must otherwise be restored by Administrative Agent or any other Lending Party, whether as a result of proceedings under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise. All losses, damages, costs and expenses that Administrative Agent, or any Lending Party may suffer or incur as a result of any voided or otherwise set aside payments shall be specifically covered by the indemnity in favor of Administrative Agent and the other Lending Parties contained in Section 10.04.

(l)

Substantial Benefits. The Credit Extensions provided to or for the benefit of Borrower hereunder by Lending Parties have been and are to be contemporaneously used for the benefit of Borrower sand each Guarantor. It is the position, intent and expectation of the parties that Borrowers and each Guarantor have derived and will derive significant and substantial benefits from the Credit Extensions to be made available by Lending Parties under the Loan Documents. Each Guarantor has received at least “reasonably equivalent value” (as such phrase is used in Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code and in comparable provisions of other applicable Laws) and more than sufficient consideration to support its obligations hereunder in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations. Immediately prior to and after and giving effect to the incurrence of each Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty, such Guarantor will be Solvent.

(m)

KNOWING AND EXPLICIT WAIVERS. EACH GUARANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT EITHER HAS OBTAINED THE ADVICE OF LEGAL COUNSEL OR HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO OBTAIN SUCH ADVICE IN CONNECTION WITH THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 10.14. EACH GUARANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT EACH OF THE WAIVERS AND CONSENTS SET FORTH HEREIN IS MADE WITH FULL KNOWLEDGE OF ITS SIGNIFICANCE AND CONSEQUENCES, THAT ALL SUCH WAIVERS AND CONSENTS HEREIN ARE EXPLICIT AND KNOWING AND THAT EACH GUARANTOR EXPECTS SUCH WAIVERS AND CONSENTS TO BE FULLY ENFORCEABLE.

If, while any Guarantor Subordinated Debt is outstanding, any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law is commenced by or against any Borrower or its property, each Agent, when so instructed by Required DDTL Approving Lenders, is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in the name of Lending Parties or in the name of any Guarantor or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, to demand, sue for, collect and receive every payment or distribution in respect of all Guarantor Subordinated Debt and give acquittances therefor and to file claims and proofs of claim and take such other action (including voting the Guarantor Subordinated Debt) as it may deem necessary or advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interests of each Agent and the other Lending Parties; and each Guarantor shall promptly take such action as any Agent (on instruction from Required DDTL Approving Lenders) may reasonably request: (A) to collect the Guarantor Subordinated Debt for the account of the Lending Parties and to file appropriate claims or proofs of claim in respect of the Guarantor Subordinated Debt; (B) to execute and deliver to any Agent such powers of attorney, assignments and other instruments as it may request to enable it to enforce any and all claims with respect to the Guarantor Subordinated Debt; and (C) to collect and receive any and all Guarantor Subordinated Debt Payments.

180

SECTION 10.15 TIME OF THE ESSENCE.

Time is of the essence of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 10.16 JUDGMENT CURRENCY.

(a)

Conversion. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any party in any court in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into a particular currency (the “Judgment Currency”), an amount due under this agreement or any other Loan Document in another currency (the “Indebtedness Currency”), the conversion will be made at the Rate of Exchange. As used herein, the “Rate of Exchange” means the rate as determined by the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent could purchase the Indebtedness Currency with the Judgment Currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which judgment is given (or if received on a day other than a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day), or, if permitted by law, on the day on which the judgment is paid or satisfied.

(b)

Payment of additional amounts. If, as a result of a change in the Rate of Exchange between the date of judgment and the date of actual payment, the conversion results in the Administrative Agent receiving less than the amount payable to it, the applicable Loan Party shall pay the Administrative Agent any additional amount as may be necessary to ensure that the amount received is not less than the amount payable by such Loan Party on the date of judgment.

(c)

Treatment of additional amounts. Any additional amount due under this section will be due as a separate debt, gives rise to a separate cause of action, and will not be affected by judgment obtained for any other amount due under this agreement or any other Loan Document.

SECTION 10.17 GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; ETC.

(a)

GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW OTHER THAN NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW 5-1401 AND 5-1402).

(b)

SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT TO WHICH EACH IS A PARTY, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH STATE COURTS OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAWS, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURTS. EACH OF

181

THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT ANY AGENT OR ANY OTHER LENDING PARTY MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST ANY LOAN PARTY OR ANY OF ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

(c)

WAIVER OF VENUE. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAWS, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN SUBSECTION (B) OF THIS SECTION 10.16. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAWS, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

(d)

SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 10.02. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAWS.

SECTION 10.18 WAIVER OF RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL.

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAWS, EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM.

SECTION 10.19 ADMINISTRATIVE BORROWER.

Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Invacare as the borrowing agent and attorney-in-fact for all Borrowers (the “Administrative Borrower”), which appointment shall remain in full force and effect unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received prior written notice signed by each Borrower that such appointment has been revoked and that another Borrower has been appointed Administrative Borrower. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Borrower (a) to provide Administrative Agent with all notices with respect to Loans for the benefit of any Borrower and all other notices and instructions under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and any notice or instruction provided by Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to be given by Borrowers hereunder and shall bind each Borrower), (b) to receive notices and instructions from members of the Lending Group (and any notice or instruction provided by any member of the Lending Group to the Administrative Borrower in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been given to each Borrower), and (c) to take such action as the Administrative Borrower deems appropriate on its behalf to obtain Loans and to exercise such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto to carry out the purposes of this Agreement. It is understood that the handling of the Loan Accounts and Collateral in a combined fashion, as more fully set forth herein, is done solely as an accommodation to Borrowers in order to utilize the collective borrowing powers of Borrowers in the most efficient and economical manner and at their

182

request, and that Lending Group shall not incur liability to any Borrower as a result hereof. Each Borrower expects to derive benefit, directly or indirectly, from the handling of the Loan Accounts and the Collateral in a combined fashion since the successful operation of each Borrower is dependent on the continued successful performance of the integrated group. To induce the Lending Group to do so, and in consideration thereof, each Borrower hereby jointly and severally agrees to indemnify each member of the Lending Group and hold each member of the Lending Group harmless against any and all liability, expense, loss or claim of damage or injury, made against the Lending Group by any Borrower or by any third party whosoever, arising from or incurred by reason of (i) the handling of the Loan Accounts and Collateral of Borrowers as herein provided, (ii) the Lending Group’s relying on any instructions of the Administrative Borrower, or (iii) any other action taken by Administrative Agent hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 10.20 ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND CONSENT TO BAIL-IN OF AFFECTED FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a)

the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b)

the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

SECTION 10.21 ACKNOWLEDGMENT REGARDING ANY SUPPORTED QFCS.

To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Contracts or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States): In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support

183

(and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

SECTION 10.22 ERRONEOUS PAYMENTS.

(a)

Each Lender and any other party hereto hereby severally agrees that if (i) Administrative Agent notifies (which such notice shall be conclusive absent manifest error) such Lender (or a Lender which is an Affiliate of such Lender) or any other Person that has received funds from Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates, either for its own account or on behalf of a Lender (each such recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that such Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under clause

(b)

below) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Payment Recipient) or (ii) any Payment Recipient receives any payment from Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, as applicable, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, as applicable, or (z) that such Payment Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted or received in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) then, in each case, an error in payment shall be presumed to have been made (any such amounts specified in clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 10.21(a), whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise; individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”), then, in each case, such Payment Recipient is deemed to have knowledge of such error at the time of its receipt of such Erroneous Payment; provided that nothing in this Section shall require such Agent to provide any of the notices specified in clauses (i) or (ii) above. Each Payment Recipient agrees that it shall not assert any right or claim to any Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(b)

Without limiting the immediately preceding clause (a), each Payment Recipient agrees that, in the case of clause (a)(ii) above, it shall promptly notify Administrative Agent in writing of such occurrence.

184

(c)

In the case of either clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above, such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of such Agent, and upon demand from such Agent such Payment Recipient shall (or, shall cause any Person who received any portion of an Erroneous Payment on its behalf to), promptly, but in all events no later than one Business Day thereafter, return to such Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds and in the currency so received, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to such Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by such Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect (such amount, the “Erroneous Payment Return”).

(d)

In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by such Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (c), from any Lender that is a Payment Recipient or an Affiliate of a Payment Recipient (such unrecovered amount as to such Lender, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), then at the sole discretion of such Agent and upon such Agent’s written notice to such Lender (i) such Lender shall be deemed to have made a cashless assignment of the full face amount of the portion of its Loans (but not its Commitments) with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Loans”) to such Agent or, at the option of such Agent, such Agent’s applicable lending affiliate (such assignee, the “Agent Assignee”) in an amount that is equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as such Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Loans, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) plus any accrued and unpaid interest on such assigned amount, without further consent or approval of any party hereto and without any payment by the Agent Assignee as the assignee of such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. Without limitation of its rights hereunder, following the effectiveness of the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, such Agent may make a cashless reassignment to the applicable assigning Lender of any Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment at any time by written notice to the applicable assigning Lender and upon such reassignment all of the Loans assigned pursuant to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment shall be reassigned to such Lender without any requirement for payment or other consideration. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (1) any assignment contemplated in this clause (d) shall be made without any requirement for any payment or other consideration paid by the applicable assignee or received by the assignor, (2) the provisions of this clause (d) shall govern in the event of any conflict with the terms and conditions of Section 10.06 and (3) Administrative Agent may reflect such assignments in the Register without further consent or action by any other Person.

(e)

Each party hereto hereby agrees that (x) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, Administrative Agent (1) shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Payment Recipient and (2) is authorized to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Payment Recipient under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by such Agent to such Payment Recipient from any source, against any amount due to such Agent under this Section 10.21 or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement, (y) the receipt of an Erroneous Payment by a Payment Recipient shall not for the purpose of this Agreement be treated

185

as a payment, prepayment, repayment, discharge or other satisfaction of any Obligations owed by Borrowers or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by such Agent from Borrowers or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making a payment on the Obligations and (z) to the extent that an Erroneous Payment (other than an Erroneous Payment comprised of funds received by Administrative Agent from Borrowers or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making a payment on the Obligations) was in any way or at any time credited as payment or satisfaction of any of the Obligations, the Obligations or any part thereof that were so credited, and all rights of the Payment Recipient, as the case may be, shall be reinstated and continue in full force and effect as if such payment or satisfaction had never been received.

(f)

Each party’s obligations under this Section 10.21 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent or any transfer of right or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

(g)

The provisions of this Section 10.21 to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) nothing in this Section 10.21 will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from any Payment Recipient’s receipt of an Erroneous Payment and (ii) there will only be deemed to be a recovery of the Erroneous Payment to the extent that such Agent has received payment from the Payment Recipient in immediately available funds the Erroneous Payment Return, whether directly from the Payment Recipient, as a result of the exercise by such Agent of its rights of subrogation or set off as set forth above in clause (e) or as a result of the receipt by Agent Assignee of a payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Loans assigned to Agent Assignee pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, but excluding any other amounts in respect thereof (it being agreed that any payments of interest, fees, expenses or other amounts (other than principal) received by Agent Assignee in respect of the Loans assigned to Agent Assignee pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment shall be the sole property of the Agent Assignee and shall not constitute a recovery of the Erroneous Payment).

SECTION 10.23 INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, this Agreement, the liens and security interests securing the Obligations, the exercise of any right or remedy with respect thereto, the exercise of any rights of setoff and certain of the rights of the Lending Parties hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.

SECTION 10.24 INTER-LENDER AGREEMENTS.

(ix) To provide the Parent with a right at any time, at the Parent’s option and with the written consent of the Required DDTL Approving Lenders, to repurchase for cash all of such Xxxxxx’s Convertible Notes on any date that is not less than 3 days no more than 14 days following written notice from the Parent to such Lender at a repurchase price equal to 100% (or a larger percentage, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Parent and with the written consent of the Required DDTL Approving Lenders) of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid

Each Lender party to this Agreement at any time or from time to time, whether as an initial party, by assignment, or by joinder or otherwise, hereby agrees that it shall promptly at the request of the Required DDTL Approving Lenders, whether in its capacity as a holder of Term Loan Debt, Convertible Notes Debt, Equity Interests of Parent, or otherwise, or as an Affiliate of a holder of Term Loan Debt, Convertible Notes Debt, Equity Interests of Parent or otherwise, further agrees that: (a) it shall not take, and it shall cause its Affiliates not to take, any action, whether pursuant to Article 15 of the indenture for the Convertible Notes or otherwise, to exercise any option or election or to require the repurchase or redemption of the Convertible Notes at any time prior to the International Business Disposition; and (b) it shall take, and shall cause its Affiliates to take, all steps necessary or appropriate for the Convertible Notes held by it or any of its Affiliates to be redeemed, repurchased, and cancelled upon the International Business Disposition, unless the net proceeds thereof which are offered to be made available to the holders of Convertible Notes are insufficient to pay the Convertible Notes in full.

SECTION 10.25 PURCHASE PRICE ALLOCATION; TAX TREATMENT.

Each Lender and each Loan Party agree that (i) the Second Amendment Advance and the common stock of Parent issued to certain of the First Amendment Lenders pursuant to the Subscription Agreements shall be treated as an “investment unit” as that term is defined in Section 1273(c)(2) of the Code, and the aggregate fair market value allocable to the common stock shall be determined in the reasonable discretion of the First Amendment Lenders. Each First Amendment Lender to whom such common stock was issued and each Loan Party shall report and cause each of its Affiliates to report the transaction contemplated by this Agreement (including any original issue discount calculations) in a manner consistent with this Section 10.25 for all tax purposes and none of them shall take any position or permit any of its Affiliates to take any position (whether in audits, tax returns or otherwise) that is inconsistent with this Section 10.25 unless required to do so by applicable law.
