Following receipt of such written notice, the Administrative Agent shall determine the revised Commitment of each Lender based on the revised aggregate Commitments of the U.S. Lenders, the Canadian Lenders and the Other Jurisdiction Lenders in respect of each Additional Jurisdiction, as applicable, and shall amend Schedule B to reflect such revised Commitments. For greater certainty, in any year, Celestica shall be entitled to effect increases or decreases in Commitments pursuant to all of Section 2.3(g)(i), (ii) and (iii) cumulatively.

2.5 Repayment of Advances by Former Designated Subsidiaries

Provided that the Facility is not earlier accelerated in accordance with Article 10, a Subsidiary which is no longer a Designated Subsidiary by virtue of the delivery of a notice in writing to the Administrative Agent to that effect by Celestica in accordance with Section 7.1(g) of this

Agreement shall repay to the Administrative Agent the principal amount of Advances made by the Lenders to such Subsidiary, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on the day which is five (5) Banking Days after the date of delivery of such notice by Celestica to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 7.1(g) of this Agreement.

2.6 Repayment of Facility

(a) In the event that, at any time, the Canadian Outstanding Amount exceeds the maximum amount allowed pursuant to Section 2.3 due to changes in exchange rates, then Celestica shall forthwith repay to the Administrative Agent or cause another Borrower to forthwith repay to the Administrative Agent that portion of the Canadian Outstanding Amount which is in excess of the maximum amount allowed pursuant to Section 2.3; provided, however, that unless the Canadian Outstanding Amount exceeds One Hundred and Five Per Cent (105%) of the aggregate Commitments of the Canadian Lenders under the Facility, there shall be no such obligation to make a repayment hereunder until the earlier of (i) 15 days and (ii) the next following Interest Payment Date, Drawdown Date, date of Rollover or date of Conversion, in each case, following receipt of written notice of determination of such Canadian Outstanding Amount by the Administrative Agent to Celestica, and provided further that if such repayment would result in the repayment of a Bankers’ Acceptance Advance prior to its maturity date or the repayment of an Acceptance Note or a LIBOR Advance prior to the last day of its Interest Period, Celestica may, or may cause another Borrower to, at its option and in lieu of repayment of such Advances, deposit with the Administrative Agent cash collateral in an amount equal to the required repayment amount to be held by the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Canadian Lenders as repayment of a Bankers’ Acceptance Advance on its maturity date (or the last day of its then current Interest Period in the case of an Acceptance Note) or repayment of an Acceptance Note or a LIBOR Advance on the last day of its then current Interest Period, as the case may be.

(b) Provided that the Facility is not prepaid or accelerated in accordance with Article 10, each Borrower shall repay the principal amount of all Advances made to it outstanding under the Facility, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on the Maturity Date to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the expiry date of any Letter of Credit is after the Maturity Date, Celestica shall on or before the Maturity Date, deposit with the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Issuing Bank, an amount equal to the undrawn Face Amount of any such issued and outstanding Letter of Credit. Such amount shall be held by the Administrative Agent in an interest-bearing account and shall be applied to satisfy Celestica’s obligations pursuant to Section 3.4 in the event that the Issuing Bank is called upon by a beneficiary to honour a Letter of Credit. Following the expiry of all such Letters of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall pay to Celestica the amounts so deposited, together with any interest accrued thereon less any amount paid by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank. At any time that any Letter of Credit shall be reduced in accordance with Section 3.1(c)(ii), Celestica’s obligations under this Section 2.6(b) shall be reduced accordingly, subject to

reinstatement in the event any payment in respect of such Letter of Credit is recovered by any beneficiary in any manner from the Issuing Bank.

(c) All repayments of the Facility by the Borrowers shall be in a minimum amount equal to the minimum amount of a Drawdown of each type of Advance set out in Section 2.3 and amounts in excess thereof in integral multiples of U.S.$100,000, or the Equivalent Amounts thereof in the currency in which each Advance is denominated except in the event of a Rollover of an Advance into a lesser amount than the Advance then outstanding or a repayment pursuant to Section 2.6(a) and (b) which may be in any amount. Repayments of any Advance outstanding under the Facility shall be made in the currency in which such Advance is denominated.

2.7 Payments/Cancellation or Reduction

Celestica may at any time, upon giving at least three (3) Banking Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent, repay, or cause another Borrower to repay and, in each case, cancel, any drawn portion of the Facility or cancel in full or, from time to time, in part, any undrawn portion of the Facility; provided, however, that:

(a) if any such repayment relates to Bankers’ Acceptances, Acceptance Notes or Letters of Credit, which have not matured, the Borrower to which such Advance was made shall, at such time, deposit in a cash collateral account opened and maintained by the Administrative Agent such amount as may be required to yield an amount equal to the aggregate undiscounted Face Amount of such instruments on the maturity dates thereof;

(b) in the event that any such repayment relates to a LIBOR Advance other than on the scheduled last day of the applicable Interest Period, the Borrower to which such Advance was made shall contemporaneously pay to the Administrative Agent all applicable breakage costs, being any loss or expense incurred by the Relevant Lenders by reason of the resulting liquidation or re-employment of deposits of funds;

(c) any such reduction shall be in a minimum amount of U.S.$5,000,000 and cancellations in excess thereof shall be in increments of U.S.$100,000;

(d) in the case of a cancellation or reduction of the Facility, Celestica shall specify whether it wishes to reduce the aggregate Commitments of (i) the Canadian Lenders, (ii) the U.S. Lenders or (iii) the Other Jurisdiction Lenders in respect of an Additional Jurisdiction and the amount by which it wishes to reduce the aggregate Commitments of each such group of Lenders;

(e) any cancellation of the aggregate Commitments of the Canadian Lenders shall reduce the Commitment of each Canadian Lender on a pro rata basis having regard to the Commitment of each Canadian Lender;

(f) any cancellation of the aggregate Commitments of the U.S. Lenders shall reduce the Commitment of each U.S. Lender on a pro rata basis having regard to the Commitment of each U.S. Lender;

(g) any cancellation of the aggregate Commitments of the Other Jurisdiction Lenders in respect of an Additional Jurisdiction shall reduce the Commitment of such Other Jurisdiction Lenders on a pro rata basis having regard to the Commitment of each such Other Jurisdiction Lender;

(h) consent of all Lenders shall be required in the event that a cancellation or reduction of the Commitments of the Canadian Lenders, the U.S. Lenders or the Other Jurisdiction Lenders pursuant to Section 2.7(d) results in a non pro rata cancellation or reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders, considered as a whole; and

(i) any such cancellation shall permanently reduce the Facility and may not be reinstated.

Any amount deposited in a cash collateral account pursuant to Section 2.7(a) in respect of a Letter of Credit which has not matured shall be held in an interest bearing account and shall be applied to satisfy Celestica’s obligation in the event that the Issuing Bank is called upon by a beneficiary to honour such Letter of Credit. Following the expiry of such Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall pay to Celestica the amount so deposited, together with any interest accrued thereon less any amount paid by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank. At any time that such Letter of Credit shall be reduced in accordance with Section 3.1(c)(ii), Celestica’s obligations to deposit an amount with the Administrative Agent in respect of such Letter of Credit shall be reduced accordingly, subject to reinstatement in the event any payment in respect of such Letter of Credit is recovered by any beneficiary in any manner from the Issuing Bank.

2.8 Maturity Date

Subject to Section 2.7, Section 10.2 and Section 10.5, the Facility shall be available until the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the termination of the availability of the Facility, until all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) of the Borrowers shall have been fully and indefeasibly paid and satisfied and all financing arrangements among the Borrowers and the Lenders with respect to the Obligations shall have been cancelled or terminated, all of the rights and remedies of the Lenders and the Agents under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall survive.

2.9 Interest on Prime Rate Advances

Interest on each Prime Rate Advance shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate in effect from time to time during the period of time that the Prime Rate Advance is outstanding plus the Applicable Margin. Such interest shall be payable to the Administrative Agent at its Toronto Office in Canadian Dollars monthly in arrears on the first Banking Day of the following month (each herein referred to as an “Interest Payment Date”) in each year for the period from and including the Drawdown Date for such Advance (or, if applicable, the date on which such Advance was converted into a Prime Rate Advance) or the preceding Interest Payment Date for such Prime Rate Advance, as the case may be, to and including the day preceding such Interest Payment Date and shall be calculated on the principal amount of the Prime Rate Advance from time to time outstanding during such period and on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 365 or 366 days (in the case of an Interest Payment Date occurring in a leap year). Changes in the Prime Rate shall cause an automatic and immediate adjustment of the

interest rate payable on Prime Rate Advances without the necessity of any notice to the Borrowers.

2.10 Interest on Base Rate Canada Advances

Interest on each Base Rate Canada Advance shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate Canada in effect from time to time during the period of time that the Base Rate Canada Advance is outstanding plus the Applicable Margin. Such interest shall be payable to the Administrative Agent at its Toronto Office in United States Dollars monthly in arrears on each Interest Payment Date in each year for the period from and including the Drawdown Date for such Advance (or, if applicable, the date on which such Advance was converted into a Base Rate Canada Advance) or the preceding Interest Payment Date for such Base Rate Canada Advance, as the case may be, to and including the day preceding such Interest Payment Date and shall be calculated on the principal amount of the Base Rate Canada Advance from time to time outstanding during such period and on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and the number of days deemed to be included in a year by the definition of the rate used to set Base Rate Canada. Changes in the Base Rate Canada shall cause an automatic and immediate adjustment of the interest rate payable on Base Rate Canada Advances without the necessity of any notice to the Borrowers.

2.11 Interest on Base Rate Advances

Interest on each Base Rate Advance shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate in effect from time to time during the period of time that the Base Rate Advance is outstanding plus the Applicable Margin. Such interest shall be payable to the Administrative Agent at its Toronto Office in United States Dollars monthly in arrears on each Interest Payment Date in each year for the period from and including the Drawdown Date for such Advance (or, if applicable, the date on which such Advance was converted into a Base Rate Advance) or the preceding Interest Payment Date for such Base Rate Advance, as the case may be, to and including the day preceding such Interest Payment Date and shall be calculated on the principal amount of the Base Rate Advance from time to time outstanding during such period and on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. Changes in the Base Rate shall cause an automatic and immediate adjustment of the interest rate payable on Base Rate Advances without the necessity of any notice to the Borrowers.

2.12 LIBOR Advances

(a) LIBOR Advances shall be available for Drawdown, Conversion or Rollover in United States Dollars in minimum principal amounts of U.S.$5,000,000 and integral multiples of U.S.$100,000 in excess thereof. Each Drawdown Notice shall specify the applicable Interest Period for the LIBOR Advance. The duration of each such Interest Period shall be for a period of approximately one, two, three or six months, or any other period, if available and agreed to by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, as the Borrower requesting such Drawdown, Conversion or Rollover may select in the applicable Drawdown Notice, Conversion Notice or Rollover Notice. No LIBOR Advance may have an Interest Period ending after the Maturity Date. If any Interest Period would end on a day which is not a Banking Day, such Interest Period shall be extended to the next succeeding Banking Day unless such next succeeding Banking Day falls in

the next calendar month, in which case such Interest Period shall be shortened to end on the immediately preceding Banking Day.

(b) If a Lender determines that deposits of the necessary amount in the requested currency for the applicable Interest Period are not available in the London interbank market or if for any other reason the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably, is unable to determine the applicable LIBO Rate, then the relevant LIBOR Advance will not be made, and the Administrative Agent will discuss with such Borrower the particular circumstances and implications of such event. In the event that such determination is made by the Administrative Agent in the case of a proposed Rollover of an existing LIBOR Advance or a proposed Conversion of another type of Advance into a LIBOR Advance, the proposed LIBOR Advance will automatically be deemed to be a Base Rate Canada Advance if the Borrower delivering such Rollover Notice or Conversion Notice is Celestica or a Canadian Designated Subsidiary or a Base Rate Advance, if the Borrower delivering such Rollover Notice or Conversion Notice is a U.S. Designated Subsidiary or a Consent Designated Subsidiary.

(c) Interest on any LIBOR Advance shall be calculated at a rate per annum equal to (without duplication) the LIBO Rate plus the Applicable Margin, plus any applicable Mandatory Cost then in effect, shall accrue from day to day and shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day of each Interest Period but excluding the last day thereof) and divided by 360. Interest on any LIBOR Advance shall be payable to the Administrative Agent in United States Dollars in arrears on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto; provided, however, that if the Interest Period is for a term of more than three months, interest shall be payable on the last Banking Day of the first three-month period and on the last Banking Day of each three-month period thereafter, as well as on the last day of the Interest Period.

(d) If a LIBOR Advance to a U.S. Designated Subsidiary is neither repaid on the last day of an Interest Period nor converted into another type of Advance on such date pursuant to Section 2.15, and if the Administrative Agent has not received a Rollover Notice or a Conversion Notice specifying the term of the next Interest Period for such LIBOR Advance at or before 10:00 a.m. (local time in New York, New York) on the third Banking Day prior to the last day of the then current Interest Period, then the outstanding LIBOR Advance shall be deemed to be converted, by way of Conversion on the last day of the then current Interest Period, into a Base Rate Advance.

(e) If a LIBOR Advance to Celestica or a Canadian Designated Subsidiary is neither repaid on the last day of an Interest Period nor converted into another type of Advance on such date pursuant to Section 2.15, and if the Administrative Agent has not received a Rollover Notice or a Conversion Notice specifying the term of the next Interest Period for such LIBOR Advance at or before 10:00 a.m. (Toronto, Canada) on the third Banking Day prior to the last day of the then current Interest Period, then the outstanding LIBOR Advance shall be deemed to be converted, by way of Conversion on the last day of the then current Interest Period, into a Base Rate Canada Advance.

(f) If a LIBOR Advance to a Consent Designated Subsidiary is not repaid on the last day of an Interest Period, and if the Administrative Agent has not received a Rollover Notice specifying the term of the next Interest Period for such LIBOR Advance at or before 10:00 a.m. (Toronto, Canada) on the third Banking Day prior to the last day of the then current Interest Period, then on the last day of the then current Interest Period there shall be a deemed Rollover of the outstanding LIBOR Advance into a LIBOR Advance with an Interest Period of one month.

(g) Except as otherwise provided herein, LIBOR Advances shall not be repaid, prepaid or converted into another type of Advance except on the last day of any Interest Period relating thereto.

(h) If the Majority Lenders determine in good faith that the LIBO Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Advance does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Advance, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender in writing. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Majority Lenders) revokes such notice; provided that, at any time and from time to time, the Borrower shall have the right to request the Administrative Agent to request that the Lenders determine whether at such time the circumstances causing the suspension continue to exist and if the Majority Lenders determine, in good faith, that such circumstances no longer continue to exist then the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower in writing of such determination and immediately revoke such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing, conversion or continuation of LIBOR Advance or, failing that, in the case of Celestica or a Canadian Designated Subsidiary will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Base Rate Canada Advance and in the case of a U.S. Designated Subsidiary or a Consent Designated Subsidiary will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Base Rate Advance.

2.13 Method and Place of Payment

(a) Each payment to be made by a Borrower under this Agreement shall be made without deduction, set-off or counterclaim.

(b) Except as provided in Section 4.2 with respect to Acceptance Fees and Section 3.8 with respect to fees for Letters of Credit, all payments of principal, interest and fees hereunder shall be made for value at or before 12:00 noon (local time in Toronto, Canada) on the day such amount is due by deposit or transfer thereof to the account of the Administrative Agent maintained at its Toronto Office. Payments received after such time shall be deemed to have been made on the next following Banking Day.

(c) Subject to Section 11.16, each: (i) Canadian Lender shall be entitled to its Main Facility Rateable Portion of each repayment or prepayment of principal of a Prime Rate Advance (other than a Swing Line Advance), a LIBOR Advance, Acceptance Note, Base Rate Canada Advance (other than a Swing Line Advance)

or payment of the Face Amount of Bankers’ Acceptances made to Celestica or a Canadian Designated Subsidiary; (ii) U.S. Lender shall be entitled to its Main Facility Rateable Portion of each repayment or prepayment of principal of a LIBOR Advance or a Base Rate Advance made to a U.S. Designated Subsidiary; and (iii) Other Jurisdiction Lender shall be entitled to its Main Facility Rateable Portion of each repayment or prepayment of principal of a LIBOR Advance made to each Consent Designated Subsidiary that is its Borrower.

(d) Notwithstanding Section 2.13(c), in the event that a Borrower is required to pay Additional Compensation to a Lender, such Borrower may prepay all or any portion of the Advances made by such Lender to such Borrower, without any obligation to prepay any portion of the Advances made by other Lenders to whom the Borrower is not required to pay Additional Compensation; provided, however, that any prepayment of a Bankers’ Acceptance Advance or LIBOR Advance shall be subject to the provisions of Section 12.2.

2.14 Fees

(a) During the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the Maturity Date (in this Section 2.14, the “Relevant Period”), Celestica on behalf of itself and the other Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders a fee (the “Facility Fee”) calculated at the rate per annum set forth in Schedule C on the sum of (i) the aggregate Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders (after giving effect to any cancellation and reduction pursuant to Section 2.7) hereunder and (ii) the aggregate outstanding Advances of the Defaulting Lenders hereunder during the Relevant Period from day to day which fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears. Each Lender shall be entitled to its Global Rateable Portion of the Facility Fee provided that in circumstances where a Defaulting Lender has outstanding Advances, such Defaulting Lender shall, until such time as it again becomes a Non-Defaulting Lender, only be entitled to a portion of the Facility Fee calculated on the basis of such Advances only and not its Commitment.

(b) [Intentionally Deleted]

(c) On or prior to the Closing Date, Celestica on behalf of itself and the other Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders in accordance with each Lender’s Global Rateable Portion a fee (the “Upfront Fee”) in accordance with the Fee Letter.

2.15 Conversion Options

Subject to the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 4.5), provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, a Borrower may convert any type of Advance outstanding under the Facility as follows:

(a) provided that the relevant Borrower thereunder is Celestica or a Canadian Designated Subsidiary, a Prime Rate Advance or a portion thereof into a Bankers’ Acceptance Advance by giving the Administrative Agent a Conversion Notice no

later than 10:00 a.m. one (1) Banking Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion;

(b) provided that the relevant Borrower thereunder is Celestica or a Canadian Designated Subsidiary, the Face Amount of a Bankers’ Acceptance or the principal amount of any Acceptance Notes, as applicable, or a portion thereof into a Prime Rate Advance on the maturity date of the Bankers’ Acceptance or the last day of the then current Interest Period of such Acceptance Note by giving the Administrative Agent a Conversion Notice no later than 10:00 a.m. one (1) Banking Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion;

(c) provided that the relevant Borrower thereunder is Celestica or a Canadian Designated Subsidiary, a Base Rate Canada Advance or a portion thereof into a LIBOR Advance by giving the Administrative Agent a Conversion Notice no later than 10:00 a.m. three (3) Banking Days prior to the date of the proposed Conversion;

(d) provided that the relevant Borrower thereunder is Celestica or a Canadian Designated Subsidiary, a LIBOR Advance or a portion thereof into a Base Rate Canada Advance on the last day of the Interest Period of the relevant LIBOR Advance by giving the Administrative Agent a Conversion Notice no later than 10:00 a.m. one (1) Banking Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion;

(e) provided that the relevant Borrower thereunder is a U.S. Designated Subsidiary, a Base Rate Advance or a portion thereof into a LIBOR Advance by giving the Administrative Agent a Conversion Notice no later than 10:00 a.m. three (3) Banking Days prior to the date of the proposed Conversion; and

An Advance may not be converted into an Advance denominated in a currency other than the currency in which the original Advance was made; however, an Advance denominated in one currency may be repaid concurrently with the Drawdown of an Advance denominated in another currency.

2.16 Execution of Notices

All Drawdown Notices, Conversion Notices, Rollover Notices and notices of repayment or cancellation and, unless otherwise provided herein, all other notices, requests, demands or other communications to be given to the Administrative Agent by a Borrower hereunder shall be executed by any one officer or director of the Borrower making each such Drawdown Notice, Conversion Notice, Rollover Notice or notice of repayment or cancellation.

2.17 Evidence of Indebtedness

The Administrative Agent shall open and maintain in accordance with its usual practice books of account evidencing all Advances and all other amounts owing by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall also enter in the foregoing accounts details of every Letter of Credit issued on behalf of Celestica, details of every Drawdown Date in respect of each Advance and all amounts from time to time owing or paid by a Borrower to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of the Relevant Lenders hereunder, the amounts of principal, interest and fees payable from time to time hereunder and the unused portion of each Lender’s Commitment available to be drawn down by the Borrowers or in respect of which Advances may be made in connection with reimbursement of the Issuing Bank pursuant to calls on a Letter of Credit. The information entered in the foregoing accounts shall constitute, in the absence of manifest error, prima facie evidence of the obligations of the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent and the Relevant Lenders hereunder, the date the Relevant Lenders made each Advance available to the Borrowers, the date the Issuing Bank issued or was called to honour a Letter of Credit and the amounts the Borrowers have paid from time to time on account of the principal of and interest on the Advances.

2.18 Interest on Unpaid Costs and Expenses

Unless the payment of interest is otherwise specifically provided for herein, where a Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by such Borrower hereunder when due, having received notice that such amount is due, such Borrower shall pay interest to the Administrative Agent on such unpaid amount, including overdue interest from the time such amount is due until paid at an annual rate equal to the sum of (i) 2%, plus (ii) the Prime Rate, in the case of overdue amounts payable in Canadian Dollars, or the Base Rate Canada, in the case of overdue amounts payable in United States Dollars. Such interest shall be determined daily, compounded quarterly in arrears on each Interest Payment Date in each year and payable on demand.

2.19 Criminal Rate of Interest

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article 2, the Borrowers shall in no event be obliged to make any payments of interest or other amounts payable to the Lenders hereunder in excess of an amount or rate which would be prohibited by law or would result in the receipt by the Lenders of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)).

2.20 Compliance with the Interest Act (Canada)

For the purposes of this Agreement, whenever any interest is calculated on the basis of a period of time other than a calendar year, the annual rate of interest to which each rate of interest determined pursuant to such calculation is equivalent for the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) is such rate as so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by the number of days used in the basis of such determination.

2.21 Nominal Rate of Interest

The parties acknowledge and agree that all calculations of interest under the Loan Documents are to be made on the basis of the nominal interest rate described herein and not on the basis of effective yearly rates or on any other basis which gives effect to the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest. The parties acknowledge that there is a material difference between the stated nominal interest rates and the effective yearly rates of interest and that they are capable of making the calculations required to determine such effective yearly rates of interest.

2.22 Swing Line Facility

(a) Swing Line Advances. Subject to Sections 2.22(b) and (k), the Swing Line Lender hereby agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make Swing Line Advances in Canadian Dollars or United States Dollars to Celestica or any Canadian Designated Subsidiary from time to time from the date hereof to the Maturity Date but in any event not later than the Maturity Date.

(b) Limitation on Swing Line Advances. No Swing Line Advance shall be made by the Swing Line Lender if:

(i) the sum of (A) the Equivalent Amount in United States Dollars of such Swing Line Advance and (B) the Equivalent Amount in United States Dollars of the aggregate principal amount of all Swing Line Advances outstanding on such day exceeds the Available Swing Line Commitment;

(ii) immediately after such Swing Line Advance is made, the Equivalent Amount in United States Dollars of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Advances to Celestica and each Canadian Designated Subsidiary exceeds the aggregate Commitments of the Canadian Lenders; or

(iii) a Trigger Event has occurred, no Debt Rating Upgrade has ensued and is continuing following the Trigger Event, and the obligations set out in Sections 9.1(p)(i) and 9.1(p)(ii) have not been satisfied.

(c) Amount of Each Swing Line Advance. Each Swing Line Advance in Canadian Dollars and each Swing Line Advance in United States Dollars shall be in an aggregate principal amount of Cdn.$ 1,000,000 or U.S.$ 1,000,000, as the case may be, or any integral multiple thereof.

(d) Interest Rates. Each Swing Line Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from the date such Swing Line Advance is made until it becomes due, at a rate per annum equal to, in the case of Swing Line Advances in Canadian Dollars, the Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin, and, in the case of Swing Line Advances in United States Dollars, the Base Rate Canada plus the Applicable Margin.

(e) Procedure for Requesting Swing Line Advances. The relevant Borrower shall give to the Administrative Agent telephonic notice no later than 10:00 a.m. (local

time) on the date of each Swing Line Advance specifying (i) the date of such Swing Line Advance, which shall be a Banking Day in Toronto, Canada; and (ii) the currency and amount of such Swing Line Advance. Such telephonic notice shall be followed by delivery by the relevant Borrower by no later than 3:00 p.m. local time on the same day of a Notice of Swing Line Borrowing. Promptly after receiving such Notice of Swing Line Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall notify the relevant Swing Line Lender of the contents thereof and such Notice of Swing Line Borrowing shall not thereafter be revocable by such Borrower.

(f) Funding of Swing Line Advances. On the date of each Swing Line Advance, the Swing Line Lender shall make available such Swing Line Advance no later than 12:00 noon, Toronto, Canada time.

(g) Optional Prepayment of Swing Line Advances. Any Borrower may prepay its Swing Line Advance in whole at any time or from time to time in part in a minimum principal amount of Cdn.$1,000,000 or U.S.$1,000,000, as the case may be, or any integral multiple thereof, by giving notice of such prepayment to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. Toronto, Canada time on the date of prepayment and paying the principal amount to be prepaid (together with interest accrued thereon to the date of prepayment) to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender.

(h) Maturity of Swing Line Advances. Any Swing Line Advance outstanding on the seventh day after such Swing Line Advance, if not repaid by such Borrower on such seventh day, shall convert to, in the case of a Swing Line Advance in Canadian Dollars, a Prime Rate Advance or, in a case of a Swing Line Advance in United States Dollars, a Base Rate Canada Advance, as the case may be. If, prior to the seventh day after such Swing Line Advance was made, the Administrative Agent declares the Advances to be immediately due and payable or the Commitments automatically terminate, each as set out in Section 10.2, such Swing Line Advance shall be due and payable on the date of such declaration by the Administrative Agent or automatic termination.

(i) Refunding Unpaid Swing Line Advances. If any Swing Line Advance is converted, pursuant to Section 2.22(h), to another form of Advance, the Swing Line Lender shall forthwith notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Canadian Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender in its capacity as a Canadian Lender), require the Canadian Lenders to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swing Line Lender, their Main Facility Rateable Portion of the aggregate amount of such other form of Advance. Such other form of Advance shall constitute, in the case of a Swing Line Advance in Canadian Dollars, a Prime Rate Advance and, in the case of a Swing Line Advance in United States Dollars, a Base Rate Canada Advance, provided that if the Canadian Lenders are prevented from making such Advances by provisions of applicable bankruptcy laws or otherwise, the amount so paid by each Canadian Lender shall constitute a purchase by it of a participation in the unpaid principal amount of such converted Swing Line Advances. Any such notice to the Canadian Lenders shall specify the date on which such payments are to be made by them. No later than 12:00 noon Toronto,

Canada time on the date so specified each Canadian Lender shall pay the amount so notified to it in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender. Each Canadian Lender’s obligations to make payments for the account of the Swing Line Lender under this subsection shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance provided that no Canadian Lender shall be obligated to make any payment to the Administrative Agent under this Section with respect to a Swing Line Advance made by the Swing Line Lender at a time when such Swing Line Lender had received written notice from Celestica or the Administrative Agent that a Default had occurred and was continuing. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.22(i), if Export Development Canada (“EDC”) is prevented from making such Advances or from purchasing such participation by any Applicable Law, EDC’s Main Facility Rateable Portion of such Swing Line Advance to be so converted shall not be converted and shall remain outstanding as a Swing Line Advance, and EDC shall provide to the Swing Line Lender a guarantee of payment of such amount, which guarantee shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Swing Line Lender.

(j) Increasing or Decreasing Available Swing Line Commitment. At any time and from time to time, Celestica may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, increase or decrease the Available Swing Line Commitment, provided that the Available Swing Line Commitment shall at no time exceed U.S.$ 25,000,000 less the amount, if any, that the Commitment of the Swing Line Lender has been reduced pursuant to Section 2.7 or be less than zero.

(k) Take-over Bids. If a Borrower wishes to make a Drawdown of a Swing Line Advance for the purpose of financing a Take-over Bid, such Borrower shall deliver to the Swing Line Lender a Take-over Bid Notice at least ten (10) Banking Days prior to the day on which it gives to the Swing Line Lender a telephonic notice or Notice of Swing Line Borrowing requesting such Drawdown. Such Take-over Bid Notice shall include the details of such Take-over Bid. As soon as possible, but in any event within five (5) Banking Days of the giving of the Take-over Bid Notice, the Swing Line Lender shall, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine whether or not it wishes to fund such Swing Line Advance. Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, if the Swing Line Lender determines that it does not wish to fund such Swing Line Advance, the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund such Swing Line Advance, and the Swing Line Lender shall be considered to be acting reasonably and in good faith if it determines that it does not wish to fund such Swing Line Advance based on any of its internal regulatory, take-over bid and credit policies and procedures.

2.23 Defaulting Lender

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if at any time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) If any Swing Line Advances are outstanding hereunder at any time that one or more Canadian Lenders is a Defaulting Lender:

(i) the participation of the Defaulting Lenders in the Swing Line Advances (the “Swing Line Shortfall”) shall be allocated to the Canadian Lenders who are not Defaulting Lenders in accordance with each such Canadian Lender’s Main Facility Rateable Portion, calculated without regard to the Commitments of any Canadian Lender who is a Defaulting Lender; provided that such allocation may be effected if and only to the extent that such allocation would not cause the Equivalent Amount in United States Dollars of the aggregate Advances of a Canadian Lender and the Equivalent Amount in United States Dollars of such Lender’s Main Facility Rateable Portion of all outstanding Swing Line Loans to exceed its Commitment; and

(ii) upon two (2) Banking Days written notice by the Administrative agent, Celestica shall immediately prepay the portion of the Swing Line Shortfall which cannot be allocated to a Canadian Lender in accordance with Section 2.23(a)(i).

(b) If any Letters of Credit are outstanding at any time that one or more Canadian Lenders is a Defaulting Lender (the Defaulting Lenders’ participation in such Letters of Credit hereinafter referred to as the “Letter of Credit Shortfall”):

(i) the Letter of Credit Shortfall shall be allocated to the Canadian Lenders who are not Defaulting Lenders in accordance with each such Canadian Lenders’ Main Facility Rateable Portion, calculated without regard to the Commitments of any Canadian Lender who is a Defaulting Lender; provided that such allocation may be effected if and only to the extent that such allocation would not cause the Equivalent Amount in United States Dollars of the aggregate Advances of a Canadian Lender and the Equivalent Amount in United States Dollars of its Main Facility Rateable Portion of all outstanding Swing Line Loans to exceed its Commitment;

(ii) upon written notice by the Administrative Agent, Celestica shall immediately cash collateralize the portion any Letter of Credit which cannot be allocated to a Canadian Lender in accordance with Section 2.23(b)(i) by depositing such amount with the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Issuing Bank, at or before 1:00 p.m. Toronto, Canada time, on the date that is two (2) Banking Days following notice by the Administrative Agent.

Any such amount received by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Issuing Bank, pursuant to Section 2.23(b)(ii) shall be held as collateral security for the repayment of all Obligations in connection with the applicable Letter of Credit and upon the drawing of such Letter of Credit, such amount shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Issuing Bank, shall return to Celestica the amount by which the aggregate cash collateral then on deposit with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.23(b)(ii) together with any interest thereon, exceeds the amount required to be cash collateralized in accordance with Section 2.23(b)(ii), if, at any time (i) such amount decreases as a result of the termination, reduction or cancellation of a

Letter of Credit; (ii) the Defaulting Lender ceases to be a Defaulting Lender; or (iii) the Defaulting Lender is removed or replaced in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.24.

(c) At any time any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Advance, and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that any payment required to be made in accordance with Section 2.23(a) or any cash collateral required to be deposited in accordance with Section 2.23(b) has been and/or will be provided by the Borrower or Celestica, as applicable, in accordance with this Section 2.23 and any such Swing Line Advance or Letter of Credit shall be allocated among the Canadian Lenders who are not Defaulting Lenders in accordance with Section 2.23(a) or (b), as applicable.

(d) No allocation under this Section 2.23 shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender.

2.24 Replacement and Removal of Defaulting Lender

(a) Celestica shall be permitted to replace any Lender that becomes a Defaulting Lender with a replacement lender; provided that (i) such replacement does not constitute a breach of Applicable Law, (ii) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) the replacement lender shall purchase, at par (unless the replacement lender and the replaced Lender otherwise agree), all Advances and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (iv) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender if any LIBOR Advance owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (v) the replacement lender shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender and the Issuing Bank, (vi) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.11 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to in Section 13.11(c)(iii)), and (vii) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender or that the replaced Lender shall have against any other Person.

(b) Celestica may upon at least three (3) Banking Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, repay, or cause another Borrower to repay, all amounts outstanding to a Defaulting Lender and thereupon the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender shall be permanently cancelled, the Commitment of each of the other Lenders shall remain the same and the Facility shall be permanently reduced by the amount of the Commitment of the Defaulting Lender; provided, however, that:

(i) If any such repayment relates to the Bankers’ Acceptances or Acceptance Notes, which have not matured, the Borrower to which such Advance was made shall, at such time, deposit in a cash collateral account opened and

maintained by the Administrative Agent such amount as may be required to yield an amount equal to the aggregate undiscounted Face Amount of such instruments on the maturity dates thereof; and

(ii) In the event that any such repayment relates to a LIBOR Advance other than on the scheduled last day of the applicable Interest Period, the Borrower to which such Advance was made shall contemporaneously pay to the Administrative Agent all applicable breakage costs, being any loss or expense incurred by the Lenders by reason of the resulting liquidation or re-employment of deposits of funds.

Upon the repayment of all amounts owing to any Defaulting Lender and the termination of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment, such Defaulting Lender shall no longer constitute a Lender for purposes of this Agreement; provided, that the removal of the Defaulting Lender shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against or in respect of the Defaulting Lender or that the Defaulting Lender shall have against or in respect of any other Person.

2.25 Increase in Aggregate Commitment Amount

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Celestica may, at any time and from time to time (provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom), give notice in writing to the Administrative Agent that one or more Lenders or other financial institutions which are acceptable to each of the Administrative Agent and Celestica (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or unduly delayed) (each an “Additional Lender”) have agreed to make additional or new commitments in a minimum amount of U.S.$25,000,000 (each an “Additional Commitment”) (provided, however, that (i) Celestica shall not be entitled to give such notice at any time at which the aggregate Commitments, together with any Additional Commitments, exceed U.S.$450,000,000 (or such lesser amount as may be available following a cancellation in part of the Facility pursuant to Section 2.7) and (ii) each Additional Lender shall comply with the requirement set out in Section 13.13 and for greater certainty, shall have a Related Lender that is a Canadian Lender if such Additional Lender is a U.S. Lender or a Related Lender that is a U.S. Lender if such Additional Lender is a Canadian Lender or Related Lenders that are a U.S. Lender and a Canadian Lender if such Lender is an Other Jurisdiction Lender). Celestica shall specify in such notice the amount of such Additional Commitment that will be allocated to each Additional Lender. Upon receipt of such written notice, each party hereto hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to:

(i) insert the name of each Additional Lender that is not an existing Lender on Schedule A;

(ii) amend Schedule B to reflect each Additional Commitment of each Additional Lender;

(iii) affix a signature page of each Additional Lender that is not an existing Lender to this Agreement; and

(iv) if Advances (other than Swingline Advances and Letters of Credit) are outstanding at the time such notice is given, then (A) each Additional Lender that is a Canadian Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to its Main Facility Rateable Portion (calculated as if each Additional Commitment were a Commitment) of such Advances to Celestica and each Canadian Designated Subsidiary, (B) each Additional Lender that is a U.S. Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to its Main Facility Rateable Portion (calculated as if each Additional Commitment were a Commitment) of such Advances to each U.S. Designated Subsidiary and (C) each Additional Lender that is an Other Jurisdiction Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to its Main Facility Rateable Portion (calculated as if each Additional Commitment were a Commitment) of such Advances to Consent Designated Subsidiaries in the Relevant Additional Jurisdiction and the Administrative Agent shall distribute the amounts advanced (for certainty, other than to each Additional Lender) under clause (A) to the Canadian Lenders, the amounts advanced under clause (B) to the U.S. Lenders and the amounts advanced under clause (C) to the Other Jurisdiction Lenders that have agreed to make Advances in the Additional Lender’s Relevant Additional Jurisdiction, in each instance in accordance with a Lender’s Main Facility Rateable Portion;

whereupon each of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Additional Lender shall acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves as they would have acquired and assumed had such Additional Lender been an original party hereto as Lender.

(b) Each of the parties hereto agrees that it will promptly execute and deliver all such documents, including, without limitation, all such additional conveyances, transfers and consents and other assurances, and do all such other acts and things as may from time to time be desirable in order to better evidence or give effect to this Section 2.25.

ARTICLE 3

LETTERS OF CREDIT

3.1 Issuance Request

By delivering to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank an Issuance Request at or before 12:00 noon, Toronto, Canada time, Celestica may request, from time to time prior to the Maturity Date and on not less than three (3) nor more than ten (10) Banking Days’ notice, that the Issuing Bank issue an irrevocable standby letter of credit or letter of guarantee in such form as may be requested by Celestica and approved by the Issuing Bank (each a “Letter of Credit”) in support of financial obligations of Celestica or a Restricted Subsidiary incurred in Celestica’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s ordinary course of business and which are described in such

Issuance Request, provided that, if the form of the letter of credit requested by Celestica is in a language other than English, Celestica shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank not less than ten (10) nor more than twenty (20) Banking Days’ notice. Upon receipt of an Issuance Request, the Administrative Agent shall, within twenty (20) days of the receipt thereof, notify the Canadian Lenders thereof. Each Letter of Credit shall, by its terms:

(a) be issued in a Face Amount which when aggregated with the Face Amounts of all other outstanding Letters of Credit does not exceed (or would not, upon its issuance, exceed) the then Letter of Credit Availability;

(b) be stated to expire on a date (its “Stated Expiry Date”) not later than one year from the Maturity Date; and

(i) terminate immediately upon notice to the Issuing Bank thereof from the beneficiary thereunder that all obligations covered thereby have been terminated, paid or otherwise satisfied in full, and

(ii) reduce, in part, immediately and to the extent that the beneficiary thereunder has notified the Issuing Bank thereof that the obligations covered thereby have been paid or otherwise satisfied in part.

Celestica may request Letters of Credit to be denominated in Canadian Dollars, in United States Dollars, and in Pounds Sterling or, if the Issuing Bank in its sole and absolute discretion agrees, in Euros or such other currency as Celestica may request in the Issuance Request. In the event that the currency in which a Letter of Credit is expressed to be drawn is a currency other than United States Dollars or Canadian Dollars, for the purposes of determining whether the Face Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit exceeds (or would, upon its issuance, exceed) the Letter of Credit Availability, the Face Amount payable under such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the Equivalent Amount in United States Dollars of such other currency on the date of such determination. The provisions of Section 6.2 shall apply to Letters of Credit issued contemporaneously on the first Drawdown Date and, thereafter, Section 6.3 (with the exception of Section 6.3(a)) shall apply at the time of issuance of any Letter of Credit as if such issuance were a Drawdown.

3.2 Issuances

On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Issuing Bank shall issue Letters of Credit in accordance with the Issuance Requests made therefor. The Issuing Bank will make available the original of each Letter of Credit which it issues in accordance with the Issuance Request therefor to the beneficiary thereof. The Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent of each issuance of or amendment to any Letter of Credit on the day upon which such issuance or amendment occurs and will promptly provide each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with a copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment thereof.

3.3 Other Lenders’ Participation

Each Letter of Credit issued pursuant to Section 3.2 shall, effective upon its issuance and without further action, be issued on behalf of all Canadian Lenders (including the Issuing Bank) in their respective Main Facility Rateable Portions. Each Canadian Lender shall, to the extent of its Main Facility Rateable Portion, be deemed irrevocably to have participated in the issuance of the Letter of Credit and shall be deemed to have purchased from the Issuing Bank an interest in each Letter of Credit equal to its Main Facility Rateable Portion of the Face Amount of each Letter of Credit; provided, however, that in the event that any Letter of Credit is denominated in a currency other than United States Dollars, each of the Canadian Lenders, other than the Issuing Bank, shall be deemed to have purchased from the Issuing Bank an interest in each Letter of Credit equal to its Main Facility Rateable Portion of the Equivalent Amount, expressed in United States Dollars and determined on the date of issuance, of the Letter of Credit. Each Canadian Lender shall be responsible to reimburse promptly the Issuing Bank for Reimbursement Obligations which have not been reimbursed by Celestica in accordance with Section 3.4 or which have been reimbursed by Celestica but must be returned, restored or disgorged by the Issuing Bank for any reason and each Canadian Lender shall, to the extent of its Main Facility Rateable Portion, be entitled to receive from the Administrative Agent its Main Facility Rateable Portion of the fee received by the Administrative Agent with respect to each Letter of Credit payable pursuant to Section 3.8(b). In the event that Celestica shall fail to reimburse the Issuing Bank or if for any reason Advances shall not be made to fund any Reimbursement Obligation, all as provided in Section 3.4 and in an amount equal to the amount of any drawing on or by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit, or in the event the Issuing Bank must, for any reason, return, restore or disgorge such reimbursement, the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify each Canadian Lender of the unreimbursed amount of such drawing and such Canadian Lender’s respective Main Facility Rateable Portion of the Face Amount of such Letter of Credit. Each Canadian Lender shall make available to the Issuing Bank, whether or not any Default shall have occurred and be continuing, an amount equal to its respective Main Facility Rateable Portion of the Face Amount of such Letter of Credit in same day or immediately available funds at the office of the Issuing Bank specified in such notice not later than 10:00 a.m. local time on the Banking Day after the date notified by the Issuing Bank. In the event that any Canadian Lender fails to make available to the Issuing Bank the amount of such Canadian Lender’s participation in such Letter of Credit as provided herein, the Issuing Bank shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Canadian Lender together with interest at a daily rate consistent with market practice. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed to prejudice the right of any Canadian Lender to recover from the Issuing Bank any amounts made available by such Canadian Lender to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section in the event that it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable decision that the payment with respect to such Letter of Credit by the Issuing Bank in respect of which payment was made by such Canadian Lender constituted gross negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank shall distribute to each other Canadian Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it under this Section with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank such other Canadian Lender’s Main Facility Rateable Portion of all payments received by the Issuing Bank from Celestica in reimbursement of drawings honoured by the Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit when such payments are received.

3.4 Reimbursement

The Issuing Bank will notify Celestica and the Administrative Agent promptly following the presentment for payment of any drawing under a Letter of Credit which notice shall include the date (a “Disbursement Date”) such payment shall be made. Subject to the terms and provisions of such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall make such payment to the beneficiary (or its designee) of such Letter of Credit (each, a “Disbursement”). Unless Celestica has made alternative arrangements with the Issuing Bank with respect to payment to the Administrative Agent of an amount sufficient to permit the Issuing Bank to discharge its obligations under the Letter of Credit together with that amount equal to any and all charges and expenses which the Issuing Bank may pay or incur in respect to such Letter of Credit, at or prior to 12:00 noon, Toronto, Canada time on the Disbursement Date, Celestica will reimburse the Issuing Bank for all amounts disbursed under the Letter of Credit together with that amount equal to any and all charges and expenses which the Issuing Bank may pay or incur in respect of such drawing under such Letter of Credit, failing which any such payment so payable shall be deemed to be (i) a Drawdown of a Prime Rate Advance if payment under such Letter of Credit was made in Canadian Dollars; (ii) a Drawdown of a Base Rate Canada Advance if payment under such Letter of Credit was made in United States Dollars; or (iii) a Drawdown of a Base Rate Canada Advance in the Equivalent Amount in United States Dollars on the date of such Disbursement of the aggregate of the amount so disbursed and all such charges and expenses if payment under such Letter of Credit was made in a currency other than United States Dollars or Canadian Dollars; provided that the provisions of Section 6.3 regarding conditions for subsequent Drawdowns shall not apply to such Advances. In the event that any amount so payable by the Issuing Bank exceeds the amount available to be drawn down by Celestica under the Facility, then forthwith upon receipt of such notice, Celestica shall provide to the Issuing Bank an amount equal to such excess amount. Celestica’s obligation (a “Reimbursement Obligation”) to reimburse the Issuing Bank with respect to each Disbursement, and each Canadian Lender’s obligation to make participation payments in each drawing which has not been reimbursed by Celestica, shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim, or defence to payment which Celestica may have or have had against any Canadian Lender or any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit, including any defence based upon the occurrence of any Default, any draft, demand or certificate or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient, the failure of any Disbursement to conform to the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit (if, in the Issuing Bank’s good faith opinion, such Disbursement is determined to be appropriate) or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such Disbursement, or the legality, validity, form, regularity, or enforceability of such Letter of Credit; provided, however, that nothing herein shall adversely affect the right of Celestica to commence any proceeding against the Issuing Bank for any wrongful Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit as a result of gross negligence or wilful misconduct (as determined by a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competition jurisdiction) on the part of the Issuing Bank.

3.5 Deemed Disbursements

Upon the declaration by the Administrative Agent that all Advances are immediately due and payable or are due and payable on demand pursuant to Section 10.2, Celestica shall immediately deposit with the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Issuing Bank, an amount equal to the undrawn Face Amount of all issued and outstanding Letters of Credit. If such deposit is not

received by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Issuing Bank, within 15 days of such declaration by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may, with the consent of the Majority Lenders, deem a Drawdown Notice to have been delivered by Celestica requesting (i) a Drawdown of a Prime Rate Advance in an amount equal to the undrawn Face Amount of outstanding Letters of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars, (ii) a Drawdown of a Base Rate Canada Advance in an amount equal to the undrawn Face Amount of outstanding Letters of Credit denominated in U.S. Dollars, and (iii) a Drawdown of a Base Rate Canada Advance in the Equivalent Amount in United States Dollars (on the date preceding the date that such Drawdown Notice is deemed to have been delivered by Celestica and from time to time thereafter) of the undrawn Face Amount of outstanding Letters of Credit denominated in a currency other than United States Dollars or Canadian Dollars. Such Advances shall be made and the Canadian Lenders shall fund such Advances in accordance with Section 11.2 notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6.3. Any amounts so received by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Issuing Bank, from Celestica pursuant to this Section shall be held as collateral security for the repayment of all Obligations in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank. At any time when such Letters of Credit shall terminate pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(i) or be reduced pursuant to Section 3.1(c)(ii), the obligations of Celestica under this Section shall be reduced accordingly (subject, however, to reinstatement in the event any payment in respect of such Letters of Credit is recovered by any beneficiary in any manner from the Issuing Bank), and the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Issuing Bank, will return to Celestica the amount, if any, by which the aggregate amount deposited by Celestica with the Administrative Agent, together with any interest accrued thereon, exceeds the aggregate amount paid by the Administrative Agent for application by the Issuing Bank to any Reimbursement Obligation of Celestica and the aggregate amount of any unpaid Reimbursement Obligations of Celestica.

If, pursuant to Section 10.2, the Administrative Agent withdraws its declaration that all Advances are immediately due and payable or are due and payable on demand, or at such time when all Events of Default shall have been cured or waived, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Issuing Bank, shall return to Celestica all amounts then on deposit with the Administrative Agent (together with any interest thereon) pursuant to this Section 3.5.

3.6 Nature of Reimbursement Obligations

Celestica shall assume all risks of the acts, omissions, or misuse of any Letter of Credit it has requested by the beneficiary thereof. Neither the Issuing Bank nor any Lender (except to the extent of its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction) shall be responsible for:

(a) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness, or legal effect of any Letter of Credit or any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for or issuance of a Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent, or forged;

(b) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness, or legal effect of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a 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;

(c) failure of the beneficiary to comply fully with conditions required in order to demand payment under a Letter of Credit;

(d) errors, omissions, interruptions, or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, telecopier, or otherwise; or

(e) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document or draft required in order to make a Disbursement under a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof.

None of the foregoing shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any of the rights or powers granted to the Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuing Bank in good faith shall be binding upon Celestica and shall not subject the Issuing Bank to any resulting liability to Celestica.

3.7 Indemnity for Costs

Celestica shall indemnify the Issuing Bank against any and all costs, damages, expenses, taxes (other than taxes on overall net income, assets or capital), claims and demands which the Issuing Bank may incur or sustain by reason of or arising in any way whatsoever in connection with the operating, establishing or paying of the amounts payable under a Letter of Credit or arising in connection with any amounts payable by the Issuing Bank thereunder except any such costs, damages, expenses, taxes, claims or demands arising as a result of the Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

3.8 Fees

(a) At the time of issuance of a Letter of Credit, Celestica shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, an issuing fee in an amount equal to the product of (i) the Face Amount of the Letter of Credit, (ii) 0.1%, and (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the term of the Letter of Credit and the denominator of which is 365 (or 366 in the case of a leap year).

(b) Celestica shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the rateable account of the Canadian Lenders who are Non-Defaulting Lenders, in respect of each Letter of Credit issued hereunder, a quarterly fee calculated daily on each day in each fiscal quarter during the term of such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the sum of the products obtained on each such day by multiplying (i) the undrawn portion of the Face Amount of the Letter of Credit on such day less the amount of any cash collateral deposited by Celestica in respect of such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.23, (ii) the LC Fee and (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is one (1) and denominator of which is 365 (or 366 in the case of a day occurring in a leap year). Such fee shall be payable by Celestica to the Administrative Agent on the first Business Day of the next following fiscal quarter. The fee shall in turn be distributed by the Administrative Agent to the Canadian Lenders who are Non-Defaulting Lenders on the first Business Day of each fiscal quarter in accordance with the Canadian Lenders’ respective Main Facility Rateable Portions as at the last day of the prior fiscal quarter.

(c) Celestica shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, an amendment fee in United States Dollars in respect of each amendment to any Letter of Credit in such amount as is usual and customary for the Issuing Bank to charge its customers, and such fee shall be payable by Celestica to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, at the time of request for such amendment.

(d) In the event that the currency in which a Letter of Credit is expressed to be drawn is a currency other than United States Dollars or Canadian Dollars, for the purposes of assessing the fees payable under this Section 3.8, the Face Amount payable under the Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the Equivalent Amount in United States Dollars of such other currency on the date on which such fee is to be assessed.

ARTICLE 4

BANKERS’ ACCEPTANCES AND ACCEPTANCE NOTES

4.1 Funding of Bankers’ Acceptances

If the Administrative Agent receives from Celestica or a Canadian Designated Subsidiary a Drawdown Notice or a Rollover Notice or a Conversion Notice requesting an Advance or a Rollover or a Conversion into a Bankers’ Acceptance Advance, the Administrative Agent shall notify each of the Canadian Lenders, prior to 11:30 a.m. (Toronto, Canada time) on the first Banking Day prior to the date of such Advance, of such request and each Canadian Lender’s Main Facility Rateable Portion of such Advance except that, if the Face Amount of a draft which would otherwise be accepted by a Canadian Lender would not be Cdn.$100,000, or an integral multiple thereof, such Face Amount shall be increased or reduced by the Administrative Agent in its sole and unfettered discretion to the nearest integral multiple of Cdn.$100,000. Each Canadian Lender shall, not later than 11:30 a.m. (Toronto, Canada time) on the date of each Advance by way of Bankers’ Acceptance under the Facility (whether in respect of a Drawdown or pursuant to a Rollover or Conversion), accept drafts of such Borrower who has delivered such Drawdown Notice, Rollover Notice or Conversion Notice which are presented to it for acceptance and which have an aggregate face amount equal to such Canadian Lender’s Main Facility Rateable Portion of the total Advance being made by way of Bankers’ Acceptances on such date. With respect to each Drawdown of or Rollover of or Conversion into Bankers’ Acceptances, each Canadian Lender shall not be required to accept any draft which has a Face Amount which is not an integral multiple of Cdn.$100,000. Subject to this Section and Section 2.3, each Canadian Lender shall purchase its Main Facility Rateable Portion of any Bankers’ Acceptances. Concurrently with the acceptance of drafts of such Borrower as aforesaid, each Canadian Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent its Main Facility Rateable Portion of the Notional BA Proceeds with respect to such Advance. The Administrative Agent shall, upon fulfilment by such Borrower of the conditions set out in Section 6.2 or Section 6.3, as applicable, make such Notional BA Proceeds available to such Borrower on the date of such Advance by crediting the Designated Account of such Borrower.

4.2 Acceptance Fees

With respect to each draft of Celestica or a Canadian Designated Subsidiary accepted pursuant hereto, such Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Canadian

Lenders, as the case may be, in advance, an acceptance fee calculated at the rate per annum, on the basis of a year of 365 days or 366 days in the case of a leap year, equal to the Applicable Margin pertaining to the Canadian BA Rate on the Face Amount of such Bankers’ Acceptance or the principal amount of an Acceptance Note, as applicable for its term, being the actual number of days in the period commencing on the date of acceptance of such Borrower’s draft or the date of such Acceptance Note and ending on but excluding the maturity date of the Bankers’ Acceptance or Acceptance Note. Such acceptance fees shall be non-refundable and shall be fully earned on the first day of the Interest Period of the Acceptance Note. Such acceptance fees shall be paid by the Borrower whose draft has been accepted by the Administrative Agent deducting the amount thereof on behalf of the Canadian Lenders from what would otherwise be Notional BA Proceeds funded pursuant to Section 4.1.

4.3 Presigned Draft Forms

(a) Subject to Section 4.3(b), in order to enable the Canadian Lenders to create Banker’s Acceptances or Acceptance Notes in the manner specified in this Article 4, Celestica and each Canadian Designated Subsidiary shall supply each Canadian Lender with such number of drafts as it may reasonably request, duly signed on behalf of such Borrower. Each Canadian Lender hereby indemnifies each such Borrower from and against any damages, losses, costs, expenses or other claims incurred by such Borrower and arising by reason of or resulting from any loss or improper use thereof by such Canadian Lender, will exercise and cause its agents to exercise such care in the custody and safekeeping of such drafts as it would exercise in the custody and safekeeping of similar property owned by it and will, upon request by any such Borrower, promptly advise such Borrower of the number and designations, if any, of uncompleted drafts held by it for and on behalf of such Borrower. The signature of any officer of the applicable Borrower on a draft may be mechanically reproduced by the applicable Borrower and any Banker’s Acceptance or Acceptance Note bearing a facsimile signature of a duly authorized officer of a Borrower shall be binding upon the applicable Borrower as if it had been manually signed by such person even if such person no longer holds office on the date of its acceptance by the Canadian Lender or at any time after such date. No Canadian Lender shall be liable for its failure to accept a draft as required hereby if the cause of such failure is, in whole or in part, due to the failure of the applicable Borrower to provide drafts to such Canadian Lender on a timely basis in accordance with the terms hereof.

(b) Each of Celestica and each Canadian Designated Subsidiary hereby irrevocably appoints each Canadian Lender as its attorney to sign and endorse on its behalf, manually or by facsimile or mechanical signature, any Banker’s Acceptance or Acceptance Note necessary to enable each Canadian Lender to make Advances in the manner specified in this Article 4. All Banker’s Acceptances or Acceptance Notes signed or endorsed on behalf of the applicable Borrower by a Canadian Lender shall be binding on such Borrower, all as if duly signed or endorsed by such Borrower. Each Canadian Lender shall (i) maintain a record with respect to any Banker’s Acceptance or Acceptance Note completed in accordance with this Section 4.3(b), voided by it for any reason, accepted and purchased or purchased or exchanged, and cancelled at its respective maturity; and (ii) retain such records

in the manner and for the statutory periods provided by Applicable Law and make such records available to Celestica and each Canadian Designated Subsidiary acting reasonably. On request by Celestica or any Canadian Designated Subsidiary, a Canadian Lender shall cancel and return to the possession of such Borrower all Banker’s Acceptances or Acceptance Notes which have been pre-signed or pre-endorsed on behalf of such Borrower and which are held by such Canadian Lender and are not required to make Advances in accordance with this Article 4.

4.4 Term and Interest Periods

The Interest Period of any Bankers’ Acceptance shall be specified in the draft and in the Drawdown Notice, Conversion Notice or Rollover Notice related thereto and the Interest Period for any Acceptance Note shall be specified in the Drawdown Notice, Conversion Notice or Rollover Notice related thereto and Interest Period of any Bankers’ Acceptance and the Interest Period of an Acceptance Note shall be for periods of approximately 30, 60, 90 or 180 days, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent. The Interest Period of each Bankers’ Acceptance shall mature, and the Interest Period of an Acceptance Note shall end, on a Banking Day. Each Borrower who delivers a Drawdown Notice, Rollover Notice or Conversion Notice shall ensure that no Bankers’ Acceptance issued pursuant thereto shall have an Interest Period ending after the Maturity Date and that no Acceptance Note issued pursuant thereto shall have an Interest Period ending after the Maturity Date.

4.5 Payment on Maturity

A Borrower which has received a Bankers’ Acceptance Advance shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Canadian Lenders, on the maturity date of such Bankers’ Acceptance and the last day of the Interest Period of an Acceptance Note an amount equal to the Face Amount of such maturing Bankers’ Acceptance or the principal amount of such Acceptance Note, as the case may be; provided that such Borrower may, at its option, so reimburse the Canadian Lenders, in whole or in part, by delivering to the Administrative Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. two (2) Banking Days prior to the maturity date of a maturing Bankers’ Acceptance or the last day of the Interest Period of an Acceptance Note, as the case may be, a Rollover Notice specifying the term of the Bankers’ Acceptances or the next Interest Period for such Acceptance Note, as the case may be, and presenting drafts or Acceptance Notes to the Canadian Lenders for acceptance and purchase having, in the case of reimbursement in whole by replacement Bankers’ Acceptances or Acceptance Notes, an aggregate Face Amount equal to the Face Amount of the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances or principal amount of the Acceptance Notes. In the event that a Borrower fails to deliver a Conversion Notice or Rollover Notice and fails to make payment to the Administrative Agent in respect of the maturing Bankers’ Acceptance Advance, the Face Amount of the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances and the principal amount of the Acceptance Notes forming part of such Bankers’ Acceptance Advance shall be deemed to be converted to a Prime Rate Advance on the relevant maturity date.

4.6 Waiver of Days of Grace

Each of Celestica and any Canadian Designated Subsidiary Borrower renounces and shall not claim any days of grace for the payment of any Bankers’ Acceptance or Acceptance Notes.

4.7 Special Provisions Relating to Acceptance Notes

(a) Each Borrower and each Canadian Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that from time to time certain Canadian Lenders which are Non-Schedule I Lenders may not be authorized to or may, as a matter of general corporate policy, elect not to accept or purchase Bankers’ Acceptance drafts, and the Borrowers and each Lender agree that any such Canadian Lender may purchase Acceptance Notes of any of Celestica or any Canadian Designated Subsidiary in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.7(b) in lieu of creating Bankers’ Acceptances for its account.

(b) In the event that any Canadian Lender described in Section 4.7(a) above is unable to, or elects as a matter of general corporate policy not to, accept or purchase Bankers’ Acceptances hereunder, such Lender shall not be required to accept or purchase Bankers’ Acceptances hereunder, but rather, if Celestica or any Canadian Designated Subsidiary requests the acceptance of such Bankers’ Acceptances, that Borrower shall deliver to such Canadian Lender an Acceptance Note or Acceptance Notes of such Borrower having the same maturity as the Bankers’ Acceptances to be accepted and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the face amount of such Bankers’ Acceptances. Each such Canadian Lender hereby agrees to purchase Acceptance Notes from such Borrower at a purchase price equal to the Notional BA Proceeds which would have been applicable if a Bankers’ Acceptance draft had been accepted by it and such Acceptance Notes shall be governed by the provisions of this Article 4 as if they were Bankers’ Acceptances.

4.8 No Market

If the Administrative Agent determines in good faith and notifies Celestica in writing that, by reason of circumstances affecting the Canadian money market, there is no market for Bankers’ Acceptances, then the right of Celestica or any Canadian Designated Subsidiary to request Bankers’ Acceptance Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably, determines that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exists and the Administrative Agent so notifies Celestica. In such circumstances, any Drawdown Notice for a Bankers’ Acceptance Advance which is outstanding shall be cancelled and the Drawdown requested therein shall, at the option of Celestica or any Canadian Designated Subsidiary delivering such Drawdown Notice, either not be made or be made as a Prime Rate Advance.

ARTICLE 5
CHANGE OF CIRCUMSTANCES
AND INDEMNIFICATION

5.1 [Intentionally Deleted]

5.2 Increased Costs

In the event of (i) any Applicable Law coming into force after the date hereof, (ii) any change in any Applicable Law, or in the interpretation or application thereof by any court or by any governmental, regulatory, other authority or central bank charged with the administration

thereof, or (iii) compliance by any Lender with any direction, request or requirement (whether or not having the force of law but, if not having the force of law, one with which a responsible bank acting reasonably would comply) of any government, monetary authority, central bank or comparable agency, in each case after the date hereof, which:

(a) subjects a Lender to any Tax or changes the basis of taxation, or increases any existing Tax (in each case, except for the coming into force of any Tax or change in the basis of taxation in respect of or the change in the rate of Tax charged on net income as a whole, on franchises or capital applicable to the relevant jurisdictions of the Lender), on payments of principal, interest or other amounts payable by the Borrowers to such Lender under any Loan Document or on or by reference to the amount of any Advances made or to be made by any Lender hereunder or on or by reference to the Commitment of any Lender, or

(b) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, liquidity, cash margin, deposit, deposit insurance, assessment, ratio or similar requirements against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by, or otherwise imposes any cost on, any Lender in agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining all or any of the Advances or its Commitment (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the United States Federal Reserve System or by the Bank of England or The Financial Services Authority), or

(c) has the effect of increasing the amount of overall capital required to be maintained by a Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender in respect of such Lender’s participation in any Advance or any of its obligations under any Loan Document (including, without limitation, all or any part of its Commitment),

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to a Lender, reduce the income receivable by it or reduce the effective return on the capital of such Lender, in each case, in respect of any Advances and/or its Commitment to an extent which such Lender believes to be material (after consultation with Celestica), the Lender shall give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers (herein called a “Notice of Amount”) stating the event by reason of which it believes it is entitled to Additional Compensation (as hereinafter defined), such cost and/or such reduction in such return (or such proportion of such reduction as is, in the reasonable and bona fide opinion of such Lender, attributable to its obligations hereunder), the amount of such Additional Compensation (as hereinafter defined) incurred by such Lender and supplying reasonable supporting evidence (including, in the event of change of Applicable Law, a photocopy of the Applicable Law evidencing such change together with a certificate of a duly authorized officer of the Lender setting forth the Additional Compensation and the basis for calculation of such Additional Compensation and an opinion in writing of such Lender’s counsel confirming such change); provided that the Lender shall not be required to disclose any information required to be kept confidential by Applicable Law (in which case the requirement of such confidentiality shall be supported by an opinion of such Lender’s counsel). Within ten (10) Banking Days of the date of receipt of any Notice of Amount, the amount set out therein (in this Article 5 referred to as “Additional Compensation”) shall be paid to the Lender by (i) Celestica and the Canadian Designated Subsidiaries, if the Lender is a Canadian Lender; (ii) the U.S. Designated Subsidiaries, if the Lender is a U.S. Lender or (iii) the Consent Designated Subsidiaries in the

Relevant Additional Jurisdiction, if the Lender is an Other Jurisdiction Lender. In the event such Lender subsequently recovers all or part of the Additional Compensation paid by the Borrowers, it shall repay an equal amount to such Borrowers. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, (i) all requests, rules, regulations guidelines and directives under, or issued in connection with, the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, in each case not announced or known and implemented before the date of this Agreement, that are applicable to a Lender making a claim for compensation under this Section 5.2 and (ii) all requests, rules, regulations guidelines and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or any regulatory authority of Canada, the United States of America or another applicable jurisdiction pursuant to Basel III, in each case only in the form adopted by the Official Body asserting relevant jurisdiction over the Lender seeking compensation under this Section 5.2, but excluding any amounts that have arisen as a result of any transitional rules or directives relating to Basel III to which a Lender making a claim for compensation under this Section 5.2 is already subject, and all interpretations and applications thereof, and any compliance by a Lender with any request or directive relating thereto, shall be deemed to be an event for the purposes of this Section 5.2.

5.3 Illegality

If, with respect to any Lender, the implementation of any existing provision of Applicable Law or the adoption of any Applicable Law, or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof by any court or by any statutory board or commission now or hereafter makes it unlawful for such Lender to make, fund or maintain all or any portion of an outstanding Advance, to maintain all or any part of its Commitment hereunder or to give effect to its obligations in respect of all or any portion of an outstanding Advance (including without limitation, any illegality due to any economic or financial sanctions administered or enforced by any Sanctions Authority or if a Lender or the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by a Sanctions Authority that penalties will be imposed by a Sanctions Authority as a result of any Lender’s participation in the Loan Documents or any other business or financial relationship with the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries), such Lender may, by written notice thereof to the Borrowers and the other Lenders through the Administrative Agent (supported, at the request and expense of the Borrowers, by an opinion of such Lender’s counsel), declare the obligations of such Lender under this Agreement to be terminated whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate, and the Borrowers to whom such Lender has made Advances shall repay within the time required by such law (or as promptly as practicable if already unlawful or at the end of such longer period, if any, as such Lender in its bona fide opinion may agree) the principal of the Advances made by such Lender. If any such change shall affect only that portion of such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement that is, in the bona fide opinion of such Lender, severable from the remainder of this Agreement so that the remainder of this Agreement may be continued in full force and effect without otherwise affecting any of the obligations of such Lender or the Borrowers hereunder, such Lender shall declare its obligations under only that portion so terminated.

5.4 Mitigation

(a) If, in respect of any Lender, circumstances arise which would result, upon the giving of notice, in:

(i) Additional Compensation being paid by a Borrower to a Lender under Section 5.2; or

(ii) a reduction of all or any of an Advance by such Lender or the Lender’s Commitment pursuant to Section 5.3; or

(iii) the prepayment of the portion of the Advances outstanding to it pursuant to Section 5.3; or

(iv) the payment of any amount by an Obligor under Section 5.5;

then such Lender, promptly upon becoming aware of the same and the possible results thereof, shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers thereof and, in consultation with the Borrowers shall take such steps, if any, as such Lender in its bona fide opinion considers appropriate to mitigate the effects of such circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if it is commercially reasonable, such Lender shall make reasonable efforts to limit the incidence of any such Additional Compensation and seek recovery for the account of the Borrowers upon the Borrower’s request and at the Borrower’s expense; provided that such Lender in its reasonable determination suffers no appreciable economic, legal, regulatory or other disadvantage. In all events, the Lenders shall promptly co-operate with the Borrowers to the extent possible, to rearrange the affected availment to one that may not be affected by such change, but failure to effect a change in availment shall not relieve the relevant Borrower of its obligation to pay the Additional Compensation. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, a Lender shall only be entitled to rely upon the provisions of Section 5.2 if and for so long as it is not treating the Borrowers in any materially different or in any less favourable manner than is applicable to any other customers of any relevant Lender, where such other customers are bound by similar provisions to the foregoing provisions of Section 5.2.

(b) If any Lender seeks Additional Compensation pursuant to Section 5.2 hereof (the “Affected Lender”), then the relevant Borrowers may indicate to the Administrative Agent in writing that they desire to (i) replace the Affected Lender with one or more of the other Lenders, and/or (ii) amend a Drawdown Notice or Notice of Swing Line Borrowing to reduce the amount sought to be borrowed to reflect the reduced amount hereunder, and the Administrative Agent shall then forthwith give notice to the other Lenders that any Lender or Lenders may, in the aggregate, advance all or part of the Affected Lender’s Main Facility Rateable Portion of such Advance and, in the aggregate, assume all or part of the Affected Lender’s Commitment and obligations hereunder and acquire all or part of the rights of the Affected Lender and assume all or part of the obligations of the Affected Lender under each of the other Loan Documents (but in no event shall any other Lender or the Administrative Agent be obliged to do so). If a Lender shall so agree in writing (herein collectively called the “Assenting Lenders” and individually called an “Assenting Lender”) with respect to such advance, acquisition and assumption, the Main Facility Rateable Portion of such Advance of each Assenting Lender (other than a Swing Line Advance) and the

Commitment and the obligations of such Assenting Lender under this Agreement and the rights and obligations of such Assenting Lender under each of the other Loan Documents shall be increased accordingly on a date mutually acceptable to such Assenting Lender and the Borrowers. On such date, the Assenting Lender shall advance to the relevant Borrowers the relevant portion of the Affected Lender’s Main Facility Rateable Portion of the outstanding Advances (other than Swing Line Advances) and the relevant Borrowers shall prepay to the Affected Lender the Advances of the Affected Lender then outstanding, together with all interest accrued thereon and all other amounts owing to the Affected Lender hereunder, and, upon such advance and prepayment, the Affected Lender shall cease to be a “Lender” for purposes of this Agreement and shall no longer have any obligations hereunder. Upon the assumption of the Affected Lender’s Commitment as aforesaid by an Assenting Lender, Schedule B hereto shall be deemed to be amended to increase the Commitment of such Assenting Lender by the amount of such assumption and to reduce the Commitment of the Affected Lender by a like amount. If no Assenting Lender is found, then in such event, the relevant Borrower is entitled to repay the Affected Lender and reduce its obligations hereunder by such amount so repaid.

5.5 Taxes

(a) All payments by any Obligor under this Agreement, the Guarantees or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any and all Taxes, unless required by law. If an Obligor shall be required by law, rule, regulation or the interpretation thereof by the relevant governmental authority to deduct or withhold any Indemnified Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under this Agreement,

(i) the sum payable shall be increased by such additional amount as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional amounts paid under this Section 5.5), the relevant Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, receive a net amount equal to the full amount they would have received if no deduction or withholding had been made;

(ii) the Obligor shall make such required deductions or withholdings;

(iii) the Obligor shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxation or other authority in accordance with Applicable Law; and

(iv) such Obligor shall deliver to the relevant Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, as soon as practicable after it has made such payment to the applicable authority (x) a copy of such receipt as is issued by such authority evidencing the deduction or withholding of all amounts required to be deducted or withheld from the sum payable hereunder or (y) if such a receipt is not available from such authority, notice of the payment of such amount deducted or withheld.

(b) Without prejudice to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.5, if the Administrative Agent or any Lender (in this Section 5.5, an “Indemnified Person”) is required at any time (whether before or after any Obligor has discharged all of its other obligations hereunder) to make any payment on account of any Indemnified Tax which an Obligor is required to withhold in accordance with Section 5.5(a) hereof or for which an Obligor is otherwise required to indemnify a Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to Sections 5.5(a), (c) or (d) hereof, or if any liability in respect of any such payment is asserted, imposed, levied or assessed against such Indemnified Person, the Obligor in respect of which such sum was received or receivable shall, within 30 days of written demand of the Administrative Agent or Lender, promptly indemnify such Indemnified Person against such payment or liability, together with interest, penalties and expenses payable or incurred in connection therewith including, without limitation, any Indemnified Tax imposed by any jurisdiction on or in relation to any amounts paid to or for the account of such Indemnified Person pursuant to this Section 5.5. An Indemnified Person intending to make a claim pursuant to this Section 5.5 shall notify the Obligor of the event in respect of which it believes it is entitled to make such claim and supply reasonable supporting evidence including a copy of the relevant portion of any written assessment, provided that any such Indemnified Person shall not be required to disclose any information required to be kept confidential by regulation or contract (in which case the basis of such confidentiality, at the request and expense of the Borrowers, shall be supported by an opinion of counsel of reputable standing).

(c) If an Obligor fails to pay any Indemnified Taxes required to be paid by it pursuant to this Section 5.5 when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders, for the account of the Administrative Agent or for the Administrative Agent’s own account, as applicable, the required receipts or other documentary evidence required by Section 5.5(a)(ii), the Obligor shall indemnify the Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by any Lender or the Administrative Agent as a result of any such failure. For purposes of this Section 5.5, a distribution by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to or for the account of any Lender shall be deemed a payment by the Obligor.

(d) Each Obligor will indemnify the Lenders and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction and paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable with respect to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 5.5, and any liability arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable makes written demand therefor which demand shall identify the nature and amount of Indemnified Taxes for which indemnification is being sought and shall include a copy of the relevant portion of any written assessment from the relevant taxing authority demanding payment of such Taxes.

(e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement contained herein, the agreements and obligations contained in this Section 5.5 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest, fees and any other amounts payable hereunder and the termination of this Agreement, the Guarantees and the other Security Documents.

(f) Each Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers and to the Administrative Agent, when reasonably requested by a Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or by the taxing or other authorities of any governmental entity and such other reasonably requested information as will permit each Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine (i) whether or not payments made by a Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to Taxes, (ii) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (iii) such Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender by a Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax purposes in the applicable jurisdictions.

(g) If an Obligor is required to pay or would reasonably be expected to be required to pay any Indemnified Taxes to any Lender or any relevant taxation or other authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to this Section 5.5 and such payment is made or is expected to be made with respect to a Tax that would be described in clause (b) of the definition of Excluded Tax if not for the fact that such Tax arises under an amended or successor version of FATCA that is either not substantively comparable or materially more onerous to comply with than FATCA as of the date of this Agreement (such a Tax, an “Indemnified FATCA Tax”), then Celestica may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse and in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 13.11, all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to accrued and unpaid amounts owed pursuant to Section 5.2 and Section 5.5) and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee selected by Celestica that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

(i) Celestica shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 13.11;

(ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the then outstanding principal of the Advances made by such Lender hereunder, together with all interest and fees accrued thereon and all other amounts owing to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents from the assignee (with respect to such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) and the relevant Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii) such assignment will result in a reduction in amounts such Obligor is required or would be required to pay on account of Indemnified FATCA Taxes; and

(iv) such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Celestica to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

5.6 Tax Refund

(a) If, following the imposition of any Tax on any payment by any Obligor in consequence of which such Obligor pays an additional amount under Section 5.5, any Lender receives or is granted a refund of any Tax actually paid by it which in such Lender’s sole opinion (acting in good faith) is attributable to such additional amount paid by such Obligor and is both identifiable and quantifiable by it without requiring such Lender or its professional advisers to expend a material amount of time or incur a material cost in so identifying or quantifying (any of the foregoing, to the extent so identifiable and quantifiable, being referred to as a “refund”), such Lender shall, to the extent that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the relevant refund and subject to such Obligor’s obligation to repay promptly on demand by the Lender the amount to such Lender if the relevant refund is subsequently disallowed or cancelled, reimburse such Obligor promptly after receipt of such refund by such Lender with such amount as such Lender shall in its sole opinion but in good faith have concluded to be the amount or value of the relevant refund.

(b) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall interfere with the right of any Lender to arrange its Tax and other affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit. No Lender shall be required to disclose any confidential information relating to the organization of its affairs.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

8.1 Representations and Warranties

Each Borrower represents and warrants as follows to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and acknowledges and confirms that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are relying upon such representations and warranties:

(a) Organization, etc. Each Obligor is validly organized and existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, creation or continuance, is duly qualified to do business and is qualified as a foreign corporation, company or other entity in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified would not reasonably be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, and has full power and authority and holds all requisite governmental licences, permits and other approvals to enter into and perform its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party and except where failure to hold such licenses, permits or approvals would not reasonably be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect to own or hold under lease its property and to conduct its business substantially as currently conducted by it.

(b) Validity, etc. Each Obligor has duly executed and delivered each Loan Document to which it is a party and each such Loan Document, other than any Loan Document executed and delivered by a Chinese Material Restricted Subsidiary (in respect of which no representation is made hereunder), constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

(c) Due Authorization, Non-contravention etc. The execution, delivery and performance by each Obligor of each Loan Document to which it is a party are within its corporate powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action by it, and do not

(i) contravene its Organic Documents;

(ii) contravene any Applicable Law or contractual restriction; or

(iii) result in, or require the creation or imposition of, any Lien on any of its properties, except for any Lien created in favour of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or the Hedge Lenders pursuant to the Loan Documents.

(d) Government Approval, Regulation, etc. Other than in respect of a Loan Document executed and delivered by a Chinese Material Restricted Subsidiary (in respect of which no representation is made hereunder), no authorization or approval or other action by, and no consent from, notice to or filing with, any Official Body or other Person is required for the due execution, delivery or performance by any Obligor of any Loan Document to which it is a party or in order to render any such Loan Document legal, valid, binding or enforceable against such Obligor.

The consolidated audited financial statements of Celestica and its Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2013 fairly present the financial condition of Celestica and its Subsidiaries as at such date and the results of their operations for the fiscal year then ended, in accordance with GAAP consistently applied. Since December 31, 2013 there has been no Material Adverse Change.

(f) Litigation, Labour Controversies, etc. There is no pending or, to the knowledge of Celestica and the Restricted Subsidiaries, threatened litigation, action, proceeding, or labour controversy affecting Celestica or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, or any of their respective properties, businesses, assets or revenues, which would reasonably be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect or purports to affect the legality, validity or enforceability of any Loan Document.

(g) Licences, etc. and Compliance with Laws. All material licences, franchises, certificates, consents, rights, approvals, authorizations, registrations, orders and permits required under Applicable Law (other than Environmental Laws) to enable each of the Borrowers and each Restricted Subsidiary to carry on their respective businesses as now conducted by them and to own or lease their respective properties have been duly obtained and are currently subsisting.

(iii) within 60 days after the end of each fiscal quarter of Celestica in each fiscal year, an Officer’s Certificate of Celestica substantially in the form of Schedule D stating that:

(A) Celestica is in compliance with the covenants set forth in this Article 9 and that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (or specifying such non-compliance or Default or Event of Default and stating what action, if any, Celestica is taking or is causing to be taken in connection therewith) and providing: (x) a calculation of the ratios referred to in Sections 9.3(a) and (b), in each case as at the last day of the relevant period; and (y) a calculation of the available disposition allowance referred to in Section 9.2(b)(vii) as at the last day of such fiscal quarter; and

(iv) in the event that Celestica delivers filings other than the financial statements referred to in Section 9.1(a)(i) or (ii) above to any securities commission, stock exchange or similar regulatory authority, such filings concurrently with the delivery of such filings to the securities commission, stock exchange or similar regulatory authority unless such filings are delivered to the securities commission, stock exchange or similar regulatory authority on a confidential basis; and

(v) such other information respecting the condition or operations, financial or otherwise, of Celestica or any Subsidiary (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary) as any Lender through the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request.

properties in good repair, working order and condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted, and make necessary and proper repairs, renewals and replacements so that its business carried on in connection therewith may be properly conducted at all times unless Celestica or such Restricted Subsidiary determines in good faith that the continued maintenance of any of its properties is no longer desirable or where the failure to do so would not reasonably be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) Notice of Event of Default. Celestica shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, forthwith upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, a certificate of an officer of Celestica specifying such Default or Event of Default together with a statement of an officer of Celestica setting forth details of such Default or Event of Default and the action which has been, or is proposed to be, taken with respect thereto.

(e) Other Notifications. Celestica shall at any time upon request of the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably, provide to the Administrative Agent an up to date corporate chart showing Celestica and all of its Subsidiaries and shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of:

(i) (x) any change in the name or organization of any Obligor; and; (y) any change in the location of the registered office or executive office of any Obligor;

(ii) the non-compliance with any Environmental Law or any environmental claim, complaint, notice or order issued to any of the Borrowers, or any of the Subsidiaries, or any other environmental condition or event where such non-compliance, condition or event would reasonably be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. As soon as practicable thereafter, Celestica shall advise the Administrative Agent as to the actions which the Borrowers or any such Subsidiary intends to take in connection with any such claim, complaint, notice or order;

(iii) the institution of any steps by the Borrower or any other Person to terminate or wind up in whole or in part any Pension Plan, including providing notice to an Official Body of an intention to terminate or wind up in whole or in part, or to order such termination or wind up, which would reasonably be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, failure to make a required contribution to any Pension Plan if such failure is sufficient to give rise to a Lien under Section 303(k) of ERISA, the taking of any action with respect to a Pension Plan which could reasonably be expected to result in the requirement that a Borrower furnish a bond or other security to the PBGC or such Pension Plan, the occurrence of any event with respect to any Pension Plan which would reasonably be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, the establishment of any new Pension Plan that provides defined benefits and copies of all documentation relating thereto; and

(iv) the entering into by Celestica or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Permitted Securitization Transaction (together with such information regarding such Permitted Securitized Transaction as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request).

(f) Compliance with Laws, etc. Each of Celestica and the Restricted Subsidiaries will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply in all material respects with Applicable Law, such compliance to include (without limitation) its qualification as a foreign corporation in all jurisdictions in which such qualification is legally required for the conduct of its business.

(g) Payment of Taxes. The Borrowers shall, and the Borrowers shall cause each of the Subsidiaries to, pay or cause to be paid, when due, all Taxes including, property taxes, business taxes, social security premiums, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its income, sales, capital or profit or any property belonging to it unless any such Tax, social security premiums, assessment, charge or levy is contested by it in good faith with adequate provision or reserve, where required by GAAP and to withhold and remit when due all payroll and withholding taxes except, in each case, where a failure to pay or cause to be paid any such Tax, social security premium, assessment, charge or levy or to withhold or remit any such payroll or withholding taxes would not reasonably be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(h) Insurance. Each of Celestica and the Restricted Subsidiaries will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries (except for Unrestricted Subsidiaries) to, maintain or cause to be maintained insurance with responsible insurance companies with respect to its properties and business against such casualties and contingencies, of such types, and in such amounts as is customary in the case for similar businesses operating in similar geographic locations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Celestica and each of the Restricted Subsidiaries shall be permitted to self-insure only where self-insurance is usual and customary for the type of risk, and for companies in substantially the same line of business and operating in the same geographic location as Celestica or the Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, and where customary and usual reserves or provisions are taken in respect of such self-insurance by Celestica or the Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable. Upon request of the Administrative Agent, Celestica will furnish to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders at reasonable intervals a certificate of an authorized officer of Celestica setting forth the nature and extent of all insurance maintained by Celestica and the Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance with this Section which certificate shall specify the risks for which Celestica or any Restricted Subsidiary have self-insured and the amount of the provisions or reserves, if any, held or made in respect of such self-insurance.

Celestica will permit the Administrative Agent and each Lender or any of their respective representatives, at reasonable times and customary intervals during normal business hours, to visit Celestica’s

offices and to discuss its financial matters with Celestica’s financial officers. Upon the occurrence of and during the continuation of a Default, Celestica and each Restricted Subsidiary shall permit the Administrative Agent and each Lender or any of their respective representatives at any time to visit all of its offices, to discuss its financial matters with its officers and its independent chartered accountant (and each of Celestica and each Restricted Subsidiary hereby authorizes such independent chartered accountant to discuss their financial matters with the Administrative Agent and each Lender or its representatives whether or not any representative of Celestica or the Restricted Subsidiary is present) and to examine (and, at the expense of the Borrowers, photocopy extracts from) any of its books or corporate records.

If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing such that the entire principal amount of the Advances then outstanding and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other payments due hereunder or under any other Loan Document which are unpaid shall become immediately due and payable in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.2, then the Administrative Agent may (and, if so instructed by the Majority Lenders shall), by written notice to the Borrowers, require the Borrowers to pay to the Administrative Agent (i) on behalf of the Lenders, an amount equal to the Face Amount of outstanding Bankers’ Acceptances and the principal amount of all outstanding Acceptance Notes and (ii) on behalf of the Issuing Bank, an amount equal to the undrawn Face Amount of any Letters of Credit issued and outstanding under the Letter of Credit Facility.

10.4 Remedies Cumulative and Waivers

It is expressly understood and agreed that the rights and remedies of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and each of them hereunder or under any other Loan Document or other instrument executed pursuant to this Agreement are cumulative and are in addition to and not in substitution for any rights or remedies provided by law or by equity; and any single or partial exercise by the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any of them of any right or remedy for a default or breach of any term, covenant, condition or agreement contained in this Agreement or

any other Loan Document shall not be deemed to be a waiver of or to alter, affect or prejudice any other right or remedy or other rights or remedies to which the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any of them may be lawfully entitled for such default or breach. Any waiver by the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any of them of the strict observance, performance or compliance with any term, covenant, condition or other matter contained herein or in any other Loan Document and any indulgence granted, either expressly or by course of conduct, by the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any of them shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which it was given and shall be deemed not to be a waiver of any rights and remedies of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any of them under this Agreement or any other Loan Document as a result of any other default or breach hereunder or thereunder.

10.5 Suspension of Lenders’ Obligations

Without prejudice to the rights which arise out of this Agreement or by law, the occurrence of an Event of Default shall, while such Event of Default shall be continuing, relieve the Lenders of all obligations to make any Advances hereunder (whether or not any Drawdown Notice in respect of any such Advance shall have been received by the Administrative Agent prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default) or to accept or comply with any Drawdown Notice, Conversion Notice or Rollover Notice or accept or purchase drafts or Bankers’ Acceptances or Acceptance Notes in replacement of maturing Bankers’ Acceptances or Acceptance Notes. Without prejudice to the rights which arise out of this Agreement or by law, the occurrence of an Event of Default shall, while such Event of Default is continuing, relieve the Issuing Bank of all obligations to issue Letters of Credit hereunder (whether or not any Issuance Request in respect of any such Letter of Credit shall have been received by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default) or to comply with any Issuance Request.

10.6 Application of Payments After an Event of Default

If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, all payments made by the Borrowers hereunder, payments made pursuant to any of the provisions of any of the Guarantees or the other Security Documents or from the proceeds of realization of the Security shall be applied in the following order:

(a) to amounts due hereunder or under any other Loan Document as costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent;

(b) to amounts due hereunder or under any other Loan Document as costs and expenses of the Lenders;

(d) to any other amounts (other than amounts in respect of interest or principal) due hereunder or under any other Loan Document;

(e) to amounts due hereunder or under any other Loan Document as interest or pursuant to any Eligible Hedging Agreement (other than in connection with an early termination of any Eligible Hedging Agreement); and

100

(f) to amounts due hereunder or under any other Loan Document as principal or payable in connection with an early termination of any Eligible Hedging Agreement.

ARTICLE 11
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND
ADMINISTRATION OF THE FACILITY

11.1 Authorization of Action

Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to be its agent in its name and on its behalf and to exercise such rights or powers granted to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the Loan Documents to the extent specifically provided herein and therein and on the terms hereof and thereof, together with such rights, powers and discretions as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected as against the Lenders in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders or the Super Majority Lenders, as applicable, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to liability in such capacity, which could result in the Administrative Agent incurring any costs and expenses or which is contrary to this Agreement or Applicable Law.

11.2 Procedure for Making Advances

(a) The Administrative Agent shall make Advances available to the relevant Borrowers as required hereunder by debiting the account of the Administrative Agent to which the Relevant Lenders’ Main Facility Rateable Portions of such Advances have been credited in accordance with Section 11.2(b) (or causing such account to be debited) and, in the absence of other arrangements agreed to by the Administrative Agent and Celestica in writing, by transferring (or causing to be transferred) like funds in accordance with the instructions of the Borrower as set forth in the Drawdown Notice in respect of each Advance; provided that the obligation of the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be limited to taking such steps as are commercially reasonable to implement such instructions, which steps once taken shall constitute conclusive and binding evidence that such funds were advanced hereunder in accordance with the provisions relating thereto and the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any damages, claims or costs which may be suffered by the Borrower and occasioned by the failure of such Advance to reach the designated destination, except to the extent such damages, claims or costs are the result of the gross negligence or wilful misconduct (as determined by a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction) of the Administrative Agent.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent has been notified by a Relevant Lender on the Banking Day prior to the Drawdown Date requested by a Borrower that such Relevant Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent its Main Facility Rateable Portion of such Advance, the Administrative Agent may assume

101

that such Relevant Lender has made such portion of the Advance available to the Administrative Agent on the Drawdown Date in accordance with the provisions hereof and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent such Relevant Lender shall not have so made its Main Facility Rateable Portion of the Advance available to the Administrative Agent, then such Relevant Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such Relevant Lender’s Main Facility Rateable Portion of the Advance and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith together with interest thereon (at the rate payable thereunder by the Borrower in respect of such Advance) for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that notwithstanding such obligation, if such Relevant Lender fails to so pay, the Borrower covenants and agrees that without prejudice to any rights such Borrower may have against such Relevant Lender, it shall reimburse such amount to the Administrative Agent forthwith after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent. The amount payable to the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto shall be as set forth in a certificate delivered by the Administrative Agent to such Relevant Lender and such Borrower (which certificate shall contain reasonable details of how the amount payable is calculated) and shall be conclusive and binding, for all purposes, in the absence of manifest error. If such Relevant Lender makes the payment to the Administrative Agent required herein, such Relevant Lender shall be considered to have made its Main Facility Rateable Portion of the Advance for purposes of this Agreement and the Administrative Agent shall make appropriate entries in the books of account maintained by the Administrative Agent.

(c) The failure of any Lender to make its Main Facility Rateable Portion of any Advance shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Main Facility Rateable Portion of such Advance on the Drawdown Date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Main Facility Rateable Portion of the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Advance.

(d) Where a Drawdown under the Facility and a repayment of an Advance under the Facility are to occur on the same day, the Administrative Agent shall not make available to the relevant Borrower the amount of the Advance to be drawn down until the Administrative Agent is satisfied that it has received irrevocable and irreversible payment of the amount to be prepaid or repaid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the absence of gross negligence or wilful misconduct (as determined by a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction) on the part of the Administrative Agent, the risk of non-receipt of the amount to be repaid is that of the Relevant Lenders and not of the Administrative Agent.

(e) This Section 11.2 shall not apply to Swing Line Advances.

(f) Any amount payable to a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent in a

102

segregated account and, subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent,

(i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder;

(ii) second, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Bank hereunder;

(iii) third, to the funding of any Advance or the funding or cash collateralization of any participating interest in any Letter of Credit or Swing Line Advance; and

(iv) fourth, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement.

11.3 Remittance of Payments

Forthwith after receipt of any repayment of principal or payment of interest or fees pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent which has received such repayment or payment shall, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 11.16, remit to each Relevant Lender its Main Facility Rateable Portion thereof; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to set off against and deduct from any amount payable to a Relevant Lender any outstanding amounts payable by such Relevant Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.2(b). Forthwith after receipt of any payment of Facility Fees pursuant to Section 2.14(a), the Administrative Agent shall remit to each Lender its portion of such payment as determined in accordance with Section 2.14(a). If the Administrative Agent, on the assumption that it will receive on any particular date a payment of principal, interest or fees hereunder, remits such payment to the Lenders and the Borrowers fail to make such payment, each of the Lenders agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount received by it together with all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and interest thereon at the rate and calculated in the manner applicable to the Advance in respect of which such payment was made for each day from the date such amount is remitted to the Lenders, the exact amount of the repayment required to be made by the Lenders pursuant hereto to be as set forth in a certificate delivered by the Administrative Agent to each Relevant Lender, which certificate shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall make appropriate entries in the register maintained by it to reflect the foregoing.

11.4 Redistribution of Payment

(a) If any Lender receives or recovers (whether by payment or combination of accounts or otherwise) an amount owed to it by a Borrower under this Agreement otherwise than through the Administrative Agent, then such Lender shall, within two (2) Banking Days following such receipt or recovery, notify the Administrative Agent (who shall in turn notify the other Lenders) of such fact.

103

(b) Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, if at any time the proportion which any Relevant Lender (a “Recovering Lender”) has received or recovered (whether by payment or combination of accounts or otherwise) in respect of its portion of any payment to be made under this Agreement by a Borrower for the account of such Recovering Lender and one or more other Relevant Lenders is greater (the amount of the excess being in this Section 11.4 called the “excess amount”) than the proportion thereof received or recovered by the Relevant Lender or Relevant Lenders receiving or recovering the smallest proportion thereof, then:

(i) the Recovering Lender shall, within two (2) Banking Days following such receipt or recovery, pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the excess amount; and

(ii) the Administrative Agent shall treat the amount received by it from the Recovering Lender pursuant to Section 11.4(b)(i) as if such amount had been received by it from the Borrower pursuant to its obligations under this Agreement and shall pay the same to the Persons entitled thereto (including such Recovering Lender) pro rata to their respective entitlements thereto in which event, for all purposes in connection herewith, the Recovering Lender shall be deemed only to have received or recovered from such Borrower that portion of the excess amount which is actually paid to the Recovering Lender by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 11.4(b)(ii).

(c) If a Relevant Lender that has paid an excess amount to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 11.4(b)(i) is required to refund the whole (or a portion) of such excess amount to the Borrower, then each of the other Relevant Lenders shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of that Lender the whole (or that proportion) of the amount received by it as a result of the distribution in respect of that excess amount made by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.4(b)(ii).

11.5 Duties and Obligations

(a) None of the Agents nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees (and, for purposes hereof, each of the Agents shall be deemed to be contracting for and on behalf of such Persons) shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement except for its or their own gross negligence or wilful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Agent:

(i) may assume that there has been no assignment or transfer by any means by any Lender of its rights hereunder, unless and until the Administrative Agent has received a duly completed and executed assignment in form satisfactory to it;

104

(ii) may consult with legal counsel (including the Lenders’ Counsel), independent public accountants and other experts of reputable standing selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts;

(iii) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties or by acting upon any representation or warranty of the Borrowers or any Guarantor made or deemed to be made hereunder;

(iv) may assume that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing unless an appropriate officer charged with the administration of this Agreement has actual notice or knowledge to the contrary;

(v) may rely as to any matters of fact which might reasonably be expected to be within the knowledge of any Person upon a certificate signed by or on behalf of such Person; and

(vi) shall incur no liability for its failure to distribute to any Lender the financial statements or other information provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers or any Guarantor.

Further, each Agent (a) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to enquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement on the part of any of the Borrowers or any Guarantor or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any of the Borrowers or any Guarantor and (b) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto.

(b) No Agent makes any warranty or representation to any Lender nor shall any Agent be responsible to any Lender for the accuracy or completeness of the data made available to any of the Lenders in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement, or for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement.

(c) Except as otherwise provided for herein, an Agent may, but is not obligated to, seek the approval of the Majority Lenders to any consents required to be given by an Agent hereunder.

11.6 Prompt Notice to the Lenders

Subject to the provisions of Section 11.5(a)(vi), the Administrative Agent agrees to provide to the Lenders, copies where appropriate, of all information, notices and reports required to be given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers and the Guarantors hereunder or pursuant to any other Loan Document, promptly upon receipt of same, excepting therefrom information and notices relating solely to the role of the Administrative Agent hereunder.

105

11.7 Agent’s Authority

With respect to its Commitment and the Advances made by it as a Lender, an Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent. An Agent may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers and the Subsidiaries or any corporation or other entity owned or controlled by any of them and any Person which may do business with any of them, all as if the Agent was not an Agent hereunder and without any duties to account therefor to the Lenders.

11.8 Lender’s Independent Credit Decision

It is understood and agreed by each Lender that it has itself been, and will continue to be, solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal of and investigations into the financial condition, creditworthiness, condition, affairs, status and nature of the Borrowers and its Subsidiaries. Accordingly, each Lender confirms with the Agents that it has not relied, and will not hereafter rely, on the Agents (i) to check or enquire on its behalf into the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of any information provided by the Borrowers or any other Person under or in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the transactions herein or therein contemplated (whether or not such information has been or is hereafter distributed to such Lender by an Agent), or (ii) to assess or keep under review on its behalf the financial condition, creditworthiness, condition, affairs, status or nature of the Borrowers or any Subsidiary. Each Lender acknowledges that a copy of this Agreement has been made available to it for review and each Lender acknowledges that it is satisfied with the form and substance of this Agreement.

11.9 Indemnification

Each Lender hereby agrees to indemnify the Agents (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers) in its Global Rateable Portion, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against an Agent (in its capacity as agent for the Lenders) in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any action taken or admitted by an Agent under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse such Agent promptly upon demand in the proportion specified herein in respect of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by such Agent in connection with the preservation of any rights of the Agents or the Lenders under, or the enforcement of, or legal advice in respect of the rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrowers.

11.10 Successor Agent

The Administrative Agent may, as hereinafter provided, resign at any time by giving not less than 30 days’ written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrowers. The Administrative Agent may, as hereinafter provided, be removed at any time on not less than 30 days’ written notice

106

thereof by the Majority Lenders provided that the Majority Lenders have designated a successor who is prepared to act hereunder and which is acceptable to Celestica, acting reasonably. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor agent (the “Successor Agent”) which shall be a Lender and which shall be acceptable to the Borrowers, acting reasonably. Upon the acceptance of any appointment hereunder by a Successor Agent, such Successor Agent shall thereupon become Administrative Agent hereunder and shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of CIBC and CIBC shall thereupon be discharged from its further duties and obligations as Administrative Agent under this Agreement. After any resignation or removal of CIBC under this Section 11.10, the provisions of this Article 11 shall continue to enure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent hereunder.

11.11 Taking and Enforcement of Remedies

(a) Each of the Lenders hereby acknowledges that, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the remedies provided hereunder or under the Security Documents to the Lenders are for the benefit of the Lenders collectively and acting together and not severally and further acknowledges that its rights hereunder and thereunder are to be exercised not severally, but collectively by the Administrative Agent upon the decision of the Lenders, the Majority Lenders or the Super Majority Lenders, as applicable, regardless of whether declaration or acceleration was made pursuant to Section 10.2; accordingly, notwithstanding any of the provisions contained herein and therein, each of the Lenders hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not be entitled to take any action with respect to the Facility, including, without limitation, any declaration or acceleration under Section 10.2, but that any such action shall be taken only by the Administrative Agent with the prior written consent of the Lenders, the Majority Lenders or the Super Majority Lenders, as applicable, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing:

(i) in the absence of instructions from the Lenders, from the Majority Lenders or from the Super Majority Lenders, as applicable, and where in the sole opinion of the Administrative Agent the exigencies of the situation warrant such action, the Administrative Agent may without notice to or consent of the Lenders take such action on behalf of the Lenders as it deems appropriate or desirable in the interest of the Lenders; and

(ii) the commencement of litigation before any court shall be made in the name of each Lender individually unless the laws of the jurisdiction of such court permit such litigation to be commenced in the name of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders (whether pursuant to a specific power of attorney in favour of the Administrative Agent or otherwise) and the Administrative Agent agrees to commence such litigation in its name;

each of the Lenders hereby further covenants and agrees that upon any such written consent being given by the Lenders, the Majority Lenders or the Super Majority Lenders, as applicable, they shall co-operate fully with the Administrative Agent to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent in the

107

collective realization including, without limitation, the appointment of a receiver and manager to act for their collective benefit; and each Lender covenants and agrees to do all acts and things and to make, execute and deliver all agreements and other instruments, including, without limitation, any instruments necessary to effect any registrations, so as to fully carry out the intent and purpose of this Section 11.11; and each of the Lenders hereby covenants and agrees that, other than as provided in this Agreement, it has not heretofore and shall not seek, take, accept or receive any security for any of the obligations and liabilities of the Borrowers or any Guarantor hereunder or under any other document, instrument, writing or agreement ancillary hereto and shall not enter into any agreement with any of the parties hereto or thereto relating in any manner whatsoever to the Facility, unless all of the Lenders shall at the same time obtain the benefit of any such agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, no Lender shall be required to be joined as a party to any litigation commenced against any Obligor by the Administrative Agent, the Majority Lenders or the Super Majority Lenders, as applicable, hereunder (unless otherwise required by any court of competent jurisdiction) if it elects not to be so joined in which event any such litigation shall not include claims in respect of the rights of such Lender against the Obligors hereunder until such time as such Lender does elect to be so joined; provided that if at the time of such subsequent election it is not possible or practicable for such Lender to be so joined, then such Lender may commence proceedings in its own name in respect of its rights against the Obligors hereunder.

11.12 Reliance Upon Lenders

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certificate, notice or other document provided to it by a Lender on behalf of all financial institutions and Affiliates which together constitute a Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to deal with the Lenders with respect to the matters under this Agreement which are such Administrative Agent’s responsibilities without any liability whatsoever to the Lenders for relying upon any certificate, notice or other document provided to it by such Lender notwithstanding any lack of authority of the Lender to provide the same or to bind the other financial institutions and Affiliates which together constitute a Lender.

11.13 Reliance upon Administrative Agent

The Obligors shall be entitled to rely upon any certificate, notice or other document provided to any of them by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the Obligors shall be entitled to deal with the Administrative Agent (and, except as otherwise specifically provided, not to deal with any Lender prior to an Event of Default) with respect to all matters under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents without any liability whatsoever to the Lenders for relying upon any certificate, notice or other document provided to any of them by the Administrative Agent, notwithstanding any lack of authority of the Administrative Agent to provide the same. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject as herein otherwise specifically provided, none of the Lenders shall have any right to enforce directly any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or to

108

communicate with the Obligors except through the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement. The provisions of this Article 11 are for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders and, except for the provisions of Sections 11.2, 11.13, 11.14 and 11.15, may not be relied upon by the Obligors.

11.14 Replacement of Cancelled Commitments

If, at any time prior to the Maturity Date, the Commitment of any Lender or Lenders is cancelled, or any Lender fails to perform its obligations hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Borrowers, provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall use its reasonable efforts to locate one or more other Persons (“Substitute Lenders”) satisfactory to the Borrowers (who may be an existing Lender) to become a Lender and to assume all or a portion of the Commitment so cancelled, provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to assume such cancelled Commitment itself if the Administrative Agent is unable to locate any Substitute Lenders. Upon locating one or more Substitute Lenders, the Administrative Agent (on behalf of each of the parties hereto other than the Borrowers and the Lender or Lenders whose Commitment has been cancelled), the Borrowers and the Substitute Lender or Lenders shall make any appropriate amendments to this Agreement which are required to incorporate such Substitute Lender or Lenders hereunder. If any Substitute Lender is not an existing Lender, then Celestica shall pay to the Administrative Agent an administration fee of U.S.$3,500.

11.15 Disclosure of Information

The Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders acknowledges the confidential nature of this Agreement, the financial, operational and other information and data provided and to be provided to it by the Borrowers pursuant hereto that is not at the time it is so provided or (other than through a breach of this Agreement) thereafter in the public domain and agrees not to disclose such information; provided, however, that:

(a) the Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose all or any part of such information to any proposed assignee or transferee or participant of any Lender or to any potential direct or indirect swap counterparty and its counsel, provided that such Person has executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent or such Lender a confidentiality agreement in a form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, which terms shall include an agreement to comply with this Section 11.15;

(b) the Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose all or any part of such information if, (A) in the sole reasonable opinion (stated in writing) of the Lenders’ Counsel (or other counsel to a Lender, including the internal counsel of such Lender), such disclosure is compellable by Applicable Law in connection with any threatened judicial, administrative or governmental proceeding or is required in connection with any actual judicial, administrative or governmental proceeding or (B) such disclosure is compellable by Applicable Law, provided that in any such event the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender will make reasonable efforts to provide Celestica with prompt written notice of any such compellable disclosure so that Celestica may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or relief to prevent such disclosure from being made. The

109

failure to deliver such notice or, where applicable, the giving of such notice, shall not preclude disclosure by the Administrative Agent or the Lender where legally required in the opinion of Lenders’ Counsel (or other counsel to a Lender, including the internal counsel of such Lender). In any event, the Administrative Agent or Lender will furnish only that portion of such information which, in the reasonable opinion of the Lenders’ Counsel, it is legally required to disclose and, to the extent reasonably practicable, will request that confidential treatment will be accorded such information;

(c) it shall incur no liability in respect of any disclosure of such information to any, or pursuant to the requirements of any, judicial authority, law enforcement agency, tax or regulatory authority which it is required to make in accordance with Applicable Law;

(d) it shall inform the Borrowers, as soon as is practicable, of any disclosure of such information made by it unless such disclosure is in the ordinary course of its business or such tax or regulatory authority or such judicial authority or law enforcement agency requires the Administrative Agent or such Lender not to inform the Borrowers of the disclosure of such information to it;

(e) the Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose all or any part of such information to its auditors or to Lenders’ Counsel or other counsel of reputable standing for the purpose of seeking or obtaining accounting or legal advice, provided that any such auditors (except where such auditor is the Auditor General of Canada, in which case such disclosure may be made on a non-confidential basis) or counsel are bound by a professional duty of confidentiality;

(f) the Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose such information to any employees, agents, officers and directors of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and of any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or any Lender (a “Representative”), if such disclosure is required in connection with the administration of the Facility, provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be responsible for a breach by any of its Representatives of the obligation not to disclose such information;

(g) the Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose such information to any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender will request that confidential treatment will be accorded such information;

(h) the Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose all or any part of such information with the prior written consent of Celestica; and

(i) the Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose all or any part of such information in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement

110

or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder.

11.16 Adjustments of Rateable Portions

(a) In connection with any Drawdown (other than a Drawdown of a Swing Line Advance), Conversion or Rollover or any reimbursement or repayment of an Obligation, the Administrative Agent shall, in its sole and unfettered discretion, have the right (but not the obligation) to make adjustments of the amount of such Drawdown, Conversion or Rollover advanced or paid by such Lender or the amount of such reimbursement or repayment to be received by such Lender in order to maintain the balances of the Advances made by each Lender in the same portion as the Main Facility Rateable Portion of each Lender.

(b) Upon the occurrence of an acceleration under Section 10.1(h), 10.1(i) or 10.2, if, with respect to any Lender, the aggregate of all outstanding Advances made by such Lender is less than its Global Rateable Portion (after giving effect to any adjustment made pursuant to Section 11.16(a)) of the aggregate of all outstanding Advances, the Administrative Agent may, by written notice, require such Lender to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the credit of the other Lenders, in such currency or currencies as the Administrative Agent may in its discretion determine, such amount as may be required so as to bring the aggregate of all outstanding Advances made by such Lender equal to its Global Rateable Portion of the aggregate of all outstanding Advances. The Administrative Agent shall credit the funds received from such Lender to any other Lender or Lenders, as it may determine in its discretion, so as to render the aggregate of the outstanding Advances made by each Lender equal to the Global Rateable Portion of each Lender of all outstanding Advances.

ARTICLE 12
COSTS, EXPENSES AND INDEMNIFICATION

12.1 Costs and Expenses

Each Borrower shall pay promptly, upon request by the Administrative Agent accompanied by reasonable supporting documentation or other evidence, all reasonable costs and expenses in connection with the due diligence pertaining to or the preparation, printing, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other documents to be delivered hereunder including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of the Lenders’ Counsel with respect thereto.

12.2 Indemnification by the Borrowers

In addition to any liability of each Borrower to any Relevant Lender or any Agent under any other provision hereof, each Borrower shall indemnify the Lenders and the Agents and hold each Lender and each Agent harmless against any reasonable costs or expenses incurred by a Lender or an Agent as a result of (i) any failure by such Borrower to fulfil any of its obligations hereunder or under any Loan Document in the manner provided herein including, without limitation, any cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or re-employment in whole or in part of deposits or other funds required by any Lender to fund or maintain any Advance as a result of the failure of such Borrower to complete a Drawdown or to make any repayment or other payment on the date required hereunder or specified by it in any notice given hereunder; or (ii) the failure of such Borrower to pay any other amount including, without limitation, any interest or fee due hereunder on its due date; or (iii) the prepayment or repayment by such Borrower of any LIBOR Advance or Bankers’ Acceptance Advance prior to its date of maturity or the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Advance; or (iv) any failure by a Borrower or Designated Subsidiary to fulfill any of its obligations under any interest rate swap agreements entered into during the term of this Agreement by such Borrower or Designated Subsidiary with any Person who was, at the time such interest rate swap agreement was entered into, a Lender. The indemnity in Section 12.2, to the extent that it relates to clause (iv), shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the Commitments hereunder and shall remain in full force and effect until such time as the parties to such interest rate swap agreements have no obligations thereunder.

12.3 Funds

Each amount advanced, made available, disbursed or paid hereunder shall be advanced, made available, disbursed or paid, as the case may be, in immediately available funds or, after notice from the Administrative Agent, in such other form of funds as may from time to time be customarily used in the jurisdiction in which the Advance is advanced, made available, disbursed or paid in the settlement of banking transactions similar to the banking transactions required to give effect to the provisions of this Agreement on the day such advance, disbursement or payment is to be made.

12.4 General Indemnity

(a) Indemnity. Subject to Section 12.4(b), (c) and (d), the Borrowers agree to indemnify and save harmless the Agents, the Lenders, their respective Affiliates involved in the syndication or administration of the Facility, their respective officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the “Indemnitees” and individually, an “Indemnitee”) from and against any and all liabilities, claims, damages and losses (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements of counsel but excluding loss of profits and special or consequential damages) (collectively, the “Losses”) as a result of any claims, actions or proceedings (“Claims”) asserted against the Indemnitees, by a Person other than the Indemnitees in connection with the agreement of the Lenders to provide the Facility, the Commitments of the Lenders and the Advances made by the Lenders including,

112

without limitation: (i) the costs of defending and/or counterclaiming or claiming over against third parties in respect of any Claim; and (ii) subject to the provisions set forth in Section 12.4(d), any Losses arising out of a settlement of any Claim made by the Indemnitees.

(b) Limitations to Indemnity. The foregoing obligations of indemnification shall not apply to (i) any Losses suffered by an Indemnitee or to any Claim asserted against an Indemnitee to the extent such Loss or Claim has resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct (as determined by a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction) of that Indemnitee; or (ii) any Losses with respect to Excluded Taxes or Indemnified Taxes for which an Indemnitee may claim an indemnity from an Obligor pursuant to Section 5.5(b) of this Agreement.

(c) Notification. Whenever a Lender or an Agent shall have received notice that a Claim has been commenced or threatened, which, if successful, would subject a Borrower (the “Indemnifying Party”) to the indemnity provisions of this Section 12.4, the Lender or the Agent shall as soon as reasonably possible notify (to the extent permitted by law) the Indemnifying Party in writing of the Claim and of all relevant information the Lender or the Agent possesses relating thereto; provided, however, that failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not release it from any liability which it may have on account of the indemnity set forth in this Section 12.4, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party shall have been materially prejudiced by such failure.

(d) Defence and Settlement. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to assume the defence of any Claim in any jurisdiction with legal counsel of reputable standing in order to protect the rights and interest of the Indemnitees. In such respect, (i) the Indemnifying Party shall require the consent of the Indemnitees to the choice of legal counsel in connection with the Claim, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and (ii) without prejudice to the rights of the Indemnitees to retain counsel and participate in the defence of the Claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnitees shall make all reasonable efforts to co-ordinate their course of action in connection with the defence of such Claim. The related costs and expenses sustained in such respect by the Indemnitees shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, provided that the Indemnifying Party shall only be liable for the costs and expenses of one firm of separate counsel in addition to the cost of any local counsel that may be required. If the Indemnifying Party fails to assume defence of the Claim, the Indemnitees will (upon further notice to the Borrowers) have the right to undertake, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the defence, compromise or settlement of the Claim on behalf and for the account and risk of the Indemnifying Party, subject to the right of the Indemnifying Party to assume the defence of the Claim at any time prior to settlement, compromise or final determination thereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Indemnitee, acting reasonably, does not agree with the manner or timeliness in which the legal counsel of the Indemnifying Party is carrying on the defence of the Claim, or, pursuant to the opinion of a reputable counsel retained by the

113

Indemnitee, there may be one or more legal defences available different from the one carried on by the legal counsel of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnitee shall have the right to assume its own defence in the Claim by appointing its own legal counsel. The costs and the expenses sustained by the Indemnitee shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party provided that the Indemnifying Party shall only be liable for the costs and expenses of one firm of separate counsel, in addition to the costs of any local counsel that may be required.

The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any Claim effected without its written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). In addition, the Indemnifying Party will not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any Claim or threatened Claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder.

If an offer for settlement made to any Indemnitee which the Indemnifying Party has recommended for acceptance is rejected by the Indemnitee and the final liability of the Indemnitee in respect of such action and all related damages is greater than such offer, the liability of the Indemnifying Party will only be to indemnify the Indemnitee up to the amount of such offer.

12.5 Environmental Claims

(a) Indemnity. Subject to Sections 12.5(b), (c) and (d), the Borrowers agree to indemnify and save harmless the Indemnitees from and against any and all Losses as a result of any Claims, orders, directives, or notices asserted or issued against the Indemnitees by a Person other than the Indemnitees with respect to any material presence or Release on, into, onto, under or from any property owned, leased or operated by any of the Borrowers or any Subsidiary (the “Property”) of any Hazardous Material regardless of whether caused by, or within the control of, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or which arises out of or in connection with any action of, or failure to act by, the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or any predecessor or successor thereof in contravention of any present or future applicable Environmental Laws, whether or not having the force of law, including, without limitation: (i) the costs of defending and/or counterclaiming or claiming over against third parties in respect of any such Claim; and (ii) subject to the provisions set forth in Section 12.5(d), any Losses arising out of a settlement made by the Indemnitees of any Claim.

(b) Limitations to Indemnity. The foregoing obligations of indemnification shall not apply to any Losses suffered by the Indemnitees or any of them or to any Claim asserted against the Indemnitees or any of them which relates directly to any action or omission taken by any of the Indemnitees while in possession or control of the Property which is grossly negligent or constitutes wilful misconduct (as determined by a final, non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction) but shall apply to any Claim occurring during such period that relates to a continuation of conditions previously in existence or of a practise previously employed by any Obligor.

114

(c) Notification. Whenever an Indemnitee shall have received notice that a Claim has been commenced or threatened, which, if successful, would subject the Borrowers to the indemnity provisions of this Section 12.5, the Indemnitee shall as soon as reasonably possible and in any event on or before the expiry of the date (the “Notification Date”) which is the earlier of (i) the tenth Banking Day after the receipt of such notice by the Indemnitee, and (ii) such date as will afford sufficient time for the Borrowers to prepare and file a timely answer to the Claim, notify the Borrowers of the Claim and of all relevant information the Indemnitee possesses relating thereto. If the Indemnitee shall fail to so notify the Borrowers and provide it with such information on or before the Notification Date, the Borrowers shall not have any liability hereunder in respect of any Losses suffered by the Indemnitee in respect of such Claim to the extent such Losses may be reasonably attributable to such failure by the Indemnitee.

(d) Defence and Settlement. The provisions of Section 12.4(d) shall apply to any Claims under this Section 12.5.

(b) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the amendment at any time of any Security Document or the release at any time of any Guarantee or Security, in each case where Section 13.5(a)(vi) does not apply, by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the Lenders, will require the consent of the Super Majority Lenders, except that: (i) to the extent that a release of a Guarantee or any Security, as applicable, may be effected pursuant to a transaction subject to Section 13.12 only, the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders will be required; (ii) to the extent that a release of a Guarantee or any Security, as applicable, may be effected pursuant to Section 7.3(b) only, the consent of the Administrative Agent will be required; (iii) the consent to the release of a Guarantee or any Security, as applicable, granted by a Material Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to have been given by the Super Majority Lenders or the Majority Lenders, as applicable, if the Super Majority Lenders or the Majority Lenders, as applicable, provided consent to the sale of the Shares of a Material Restricted Subsidiary or a Domestic Restricted Subsidiary or the sale of all or substantially all of the undertaking, property and assets of a Material Restricted Subsidiary or Domestic Restricted Subsidiary used in conducting a business, as applicable, pursuant to Section 9.2(b)(ix); and (iv) to the extent that an amendment, as determined by the Administrative Agent and Lenders’ Counsel, each acting reasonably, does not materially impair the enforceability or unconditionality of such Guarantee or such Security, the consent of the Administrative Agent is required; and

13.7 Further Assurances

Each Obligor shall promptly cure any default in its execution and delivery of this Agreement or in any of the other instruments referred to or contemplated herein to which it is a party. Each Obligor, at its expense, will promptly execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Administrative Agent, upon request, all such other and further documents, agreements, certificates and instruments in compliance with, or accomplishment of the covenants and agreements of such Obligor hereunder or more fully to state the obligations of such Obligor as set out herein or to make any recording, file any notice or obtain any consents, all as may be necessary or appropriate in connection therewith.

13.8 Enforcement and Waiver by the Lenders

The failure of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders at any time or times to enforce their rights under such provisions, strictly in accordance with the same, shall not be construed as having created a custom in any way or manner, modified or waived the same. All rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are cumulative and concurrent and the exercise of one right or remedy shall not be deemed a waiver or release of any other right or remedy.

13.9 Execution in Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original and all of which taken together shall constitute a single agreement.

13.10 Assignment by the Borrowers

The rights and obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement are not assignable to any other Person, except in accordance with Article 7, without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

13.11 Assignments and Transfers by a Lender

(a) With the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and Celestica, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, any Lender may, at any time, assign all or any of its rights and benefits hereunder or transfer in accordance with Section 13.11(b) all or any of its rights, benefits and obligations hereunder;

118

provided that in the event that such assignment would give rise to a claim for increased costs pursuant to Article 5, it shall not be unreasonable for Celestica to withhold its consent to such assignment. Any assignment or transfer shall be with respect to a minimum Commitment of U.S.$10,000,000 and integral multiples of U.S.$1,000,000 in excess thereof. A lesser amount may be assigned or transferred by any Lender if such amount represents the remaining balance of such Lender’s Commitment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the consent of the Administrative Agent and Celestica is not required in connection with the assignment or transfer of all or any of the rights, benefits and obligations hereunder (i) to any Subsidiary or Affiliate of a Lender or to any other Lender hereunder provided that notice is given to the Administrative Agent and Celestica, and provided that, in either case, any such assignment or transfer does not give rise to a claim for increased costs pursuant to Article 5 or any obligation on the part of an Obligor to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, in either case, in excess of what would have been the case without such assignment, or such assignee waives the rights to any benefits under Section 5.5; or (ii) to any Person if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(b) If any Lender assigns all or any of its rights and benefits hereunder in accordance with Section 13.11(a), then, unless and until the assignee has agreed with the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders (in a Transfer Notice or otherwise) that it shall be under the same obligations towards each of them as it would have been under if it had been an original party hereto as a Lender, none of the Administrative Agent or any of the other Lenders or the Borrowers shall be obliged to recognize such assignee as having the rights against each of them which it would have had if it had been such a party hereto.

(c) If any Lender wishes to assign all or any of its rights, benefits and/or obligations hereunder as contemplated in Section 13.11(a), then such transfer may be effected upon:

(i) receipt of the written consent of the Administrative Agent and Celestica as referred to in Section 13.11(a) delivered to the relevant assignee by the Administrative Agent unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in which case consent of Celestica shall not be required;

(ii) the delivery to and countersignature by the relevant Lender of a duly completed and duly executed Transfer Notice; and

(iii) if any Lender wishes to assign any of its rights, benefits and/or obligations hereunder to a financial institution which is not a Lender or a Subsidiary or Affiliate of a Lender, such Lender shall have paid to the Administrative Agent a fee in the amount of U.S.$3,500;

in which event, on the later of the effective date, if any, specified in such Transfer Notice and the fifth (5th) Banking Day after the date of delivery of such Transfer Notice to the Administrative Agent (unless the Administrative Agent agrees to a shorter period):

119

(iv) to the extent that in such Transfer Notice the Lender party thereto seeks to transfer its rights and obligations hereunder, each of the Obligors and such Lender shall be released from further obligations towards one another hereunder and their respective rights against one another shall be cancelled;

(v) each of the Obligors and the assignee party thereto shall assume the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves as they would have had if such assignee had been an original party hereto as a Lender with the rights and/or obligations acquired or assumed by it as a result of such transfer; and

(vi) the Administrative Agent, such assignee and the other Lenders shall acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves as they would have acquired and assumed had such assignee been an original party hereto as a Lender with the rights and/or obligations acquired or assumed by it as a result of such transfer.

(d) Each of the parties hereto confirms that:

(i) the delivery to an assignee of a Transfer Notice signed by a Lender constitutes an irrevocable offer (subject to the conditions of Section 13.11(c)) by each of the parties hereto to accept such transferee (subject to the conditions set out herein) as a Lender party hereto with the rights and obligations so expressed to be transferred;

(ii) such offer may be accepted by such assignee by the execution of such Transfer Notice by such assignee and upon fulfilment of the conditions set forth in Section 13.11(c); and

(iii) the provisions of this Agreement shall apply to the contract between the parties thereto arising as a result of acceptance of such offer.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall not be obliged to accept any Transfer Notice received by it hereunder and no such Transfer Notice may take effect on any day on or after the receipt by the Administrative Agent of a Drawdown Notice and prior to the date for the making of the proposed Advance.

(f) No transfer pursuant to this Section 13.11 shall, unless the Administrative Agent otherwise decides in its absolute discretion and notifies the parties to such transfer accordingly, be effective if the date for effectiveness of such transfer on the day on which the Administrative Agent receives the applicable Transfer Notice is on, or less than five (5) Banking Days before, the day for the payment of any interest or fee hereunder.

(g) Any Lender may participate all or any part of its interest hereunder, provided that any such participation does not give rise to a claim for increased costs pursuant to Article 5 or any obligation on the part of an Obligor to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to an Agent or the

120

Lenders, or such Lender and participant waive the right to any benefits under Section 5.5 and, in such case, notice of such participation has been given to the Administrative Agent and Celestica. Such participant shall not be entitled to any vote as a Lender. The Borrowers shall not be obligated to deal with any participant and shall be entitled to deal solely with the Lender and the Lender shall not be released from any of its obligations to the Borrowers as a result of such participation except to the extent that the participant has fulfilled such obligations. Such participants shall be bound to the same confidentiality provisions with respect to the Facility, the Borrowers and the Subsidiaries as are applicable to the Lenders.

13.12 Certain Requirements in Respect of Merger, Etc

No Borrower shall, and the Borrowers shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary (in each case, a “Predecessor Corporation”) to, enter into any transaction (whether by way of liquidation, dissolution, amalgamation, merger, transfer, sale or otherwise) whereby all or substantially all of its undertaking, property and assets would become the property of any other Person other than in accordance with Section 9.2(b)(vii) or Section 9.2(b)(ix) or, in the case of any such amalgamation or merger, of the continuing company resulting therefrom, or whereby the obligation of the Predecessor Corporation to pay amounts under this Agreement would become subject to novation or assumed or undertaken by any other such Person or continuing company (a “Corporate Reorganization”), provided that it may do so (and if the Predecessor Corporation is a Borrower or a Material Restricted Subsidiary or a Grantor such Person or continuing company shall become a party to this Agreement or to the Guarantee provided by such Material Restricted Subsidiary or the other Security Documents, as applicable, provided by such Grantor as the case may be) if:

(a) such other Person or continuing company (herein referred to as a “Successor Corporation”) is a Borrower or Restricted Subsidiary;

(b) where required in the reasonable opinion of Lenders’ Counsel, a Successor Corporation which is a Borrower or a Material Restricted Subsidiary or a Grantor shall execute and/or deliver to the Administrative Agent an agreement supplemental hereto or to the Guarantee or Guarantees or the Security Documents, as applicable, executed by a Predecessor Corporation or Predecessor Corporations, as the case may be, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and execute and/or deliver such other instruments, if any, which to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent and in the opinion of Lenders’ Counsel are necessary to evidence (i) the assumption by the Successor Corporation of liability under each Loan Document to which the Predecessor Corporation is a party for the due and punctual payment of all money payable by the Predecessor Corporation thereunder, (ii) the covenant of the Successor Corporation to pay the same, (iii) the agreement of the Successor Corporation to observe and perform all the covenants and obligations of the Predecessor Corporation under each Loan Document to which the Predecessor Corporation was a party and to be bound by all the terms of each such Loan Document so far as they relate to the Predecessor Corporation, and (iv) if applicable, that the Security granted by the Predecessor Corporation continues to secure all of the Obligations and Eligible Hedging Obligations of the Successor

121

Corporation pursuant to or in connection with any Loan Document, which instruments, if any, shall be in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

(d) all Other Taxes payable as a result of such transaction have been paid;

(e) such transaction will not result in any claim for increased costs pursuant to Section 5.2 or result in any Tax being levied on or payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (except for Taxes on the overall net income or capital of the Administrative Agent or a Lender provided there is no increase in such Taxes as a result of such transaction);

(f) such transaction will not cause, or have the result of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any of them being in default under, noncompliance with, or violation of, any Applicable Law;

(g) an opinion of Borrowers’ counsel, substantially in the form and as to matters addressed in the opinions delivered pursuant to Section 6.1 and Section 9.1(p)(ii), as applicable, shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent;

(h) each of the covenants set forth in Section 9.3 shall be satisfied on an actual and pro forma basis after giving effect to such transaction;

(i) evidence of the due registration, recording and/or filing of the Security Documents in all jurisdictions necessary to protect, perfect and preserve as first ranking security (subject to Permitted Encumbrances) the Security created thereby; and

(j) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or will occur as a result of such transaction.

Sections 13.12(a), (b) and (g) shall not apply (i) to the liquidation or dissolution of the Restricted Subsidiaries listed in Schedule R; (ii) to the merger of the Restricted Subsidiaries listed in Schedule S; and (iii) in connection with the reorganization of the Celestica Liquidity Management Hungary Limited Liability Company holding structure, to the dissolution of Celestica Liquidity Management Hungary Limited Liability Company, Celestica (Gibraltar) Limited, Celestica (Luxembourg) S.ar.l and 3250297 Nova Scotia Company through a series of transactions with the ultimate effect of transferring the assets of such entities to Celestica.

This Section 13.12 shall not apply to permit any consolidation, amalgamation or merger by or of Celestica unless, as the result thereof, the Successor Corporation is Celestica.

A Successor Corporation shall not be required to comply with Section 13.12(b), (g) and (i) in respect of a Corporate Reorganization where (i) no Security Document has been delivered by a Predecessor Corporation or is required to be delivered by a Successor Corporation, and (ii) one or more of the participants in the subject Corporate Reorganization is a Predecessor Corporation which is a Borrower or Restricted Subsidiary existing under the laws of an Exempted

122

Jurisdiction and which, prior to the completion of such Corporate Reorganization, delivered a Guarantee in accordance with Section 9.1(m)(i) and the Guarantee delivered by such Predecessor Corporation (the “Predecessor Guarantee”) has not been terminated or released. In this paragraph, “Exempted Jurisdiction” means:

(i) the Province of Ontario, unless, following the date hereof, the laws of such Province change in a manner that would adversely affect the enforceability of the Predecessor Guarantee against the Successor Corporation;

(ii) Canada, unless following the date hereof, the laws of Canada or the laws of the Province of Canada which govern such Guarantee change in a manner that would adversely affect the enforceability of the Predecessor Guarantee against the Successor Corporation; and

(iii) the State of Delaware, unless, following the date hereof, the laws of such State change in a manner that would adversely affect the enforceability of the Predecessor Guarantee against the Successor Corporation.

13.13 Location of Lenders

Unless otherwise agreed between the Administrative Agent and Celestica, each Lender shall be resident in, or have a Related Lender in each of Canada and the United States of America. In respect of any Lender which assigns or shares part of its Commitment with a Related Lender, the provisions of Article 11 relating to the appointment and authorization of the Administrative Agent and the indemnification of the Agents shall apply equally to each such Related Lender.

13.14 Set-Off

If an Event of Default has occurred, the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall have the right to set off against any accounts, credits or balances maintained by the Obligors with the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any amount due hereunder.

13.15 Time of the Essence

Time shall be of the essence in this Agreement.

13.16 Advertisements

The Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree that prior to any advertisement with respect to this transaction, the Administrative Agent shall obtain the written consent of Celestica as to the form and content of such advertisement, such consent not to be reasonably withheld and to be provided as soon as practicable.

13.17 Judgement Currency

If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due to the Administrative Agent or a Lender in any currency (the “Original Currency”) into another currency (the “Other Currency”), the parties agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the Administrative Agent or such Lender could purchase the Original

123

Currency with the Other Currency on the Banking Day preceding the day on which final judgment is given or, if permitted by Applicable Law, on the day on which the judgment is paid or satisfied.

The obligations of an Obligor in respect of any sum due in the Original Currency from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any of the Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any Other Currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Banking Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Other Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase the Original Currency with such Other Currency. If the amount of the Original Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the Original Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding the judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, against any loss, and, if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the Original Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall remit such excess to such Borrower.

13.18 Existing DB Lender

Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (the “Exiting DB Lender”) hereby consents to the amendment and restatement of the Exiting Credit Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees and confirms that after giving effect to this Section 13.18, the Exiting DB Lender’s Commitment shall be $0, its commitment to lend and all obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be terminated, and the Exiting DB Lender shall cease to be a Lender for all purposes under the Loan Documents (other than in respect of any terms and conditions of the Exiting Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents which, by their terms, survive any cancellation of commitments, repayment in full of any obligations or the termination of any Loan Document).

setoff, counterclaim or reduction and, subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, without deduction for, and free from, any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, charges, deductions, withholding or liabilities with respect thereto or any restrictions or conditions of any nature. Subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, if the Guarantor is required by law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any tax or other withholding or deduction from any sum payable by the Guarantor hereunder, the Guarantor shall pay any such tax or other withholding or deduction and shall pay such additional amount necessary to ensure that, after making any payment, deduction or withholding, the Administrative Agent shall receive and retain (free of any liability in respect of any payment, deduction or withholding) a net sum equal to what it would have received and so retained hereunder had no such deduction, withholding or payment been required to have been made.

25. The payment by the Guarantor of any amount or amounts due the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be made in the same currency (the “Relevant Currency”) and funds in which the underlying Debtor Obligations are payable. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the obligation of the Guarantor in respect of any amount due in the Relevant Currency under this Guarantee shall, notwithstanding any payment in any other currency (whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise), be discharged only to the extent of the amount in the Relevant Currency that the Administrative Agent may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase with the sum paid in such other currency (after any premium and costs of exchange) on the Banking Day immediately following the day on which the Administrative Agent receives such payment. If the amount in the Relevant Currency that may be so purchased for any reason falls short of the amount originally due, the Guarantor shall pay such additional amounts, in the Relevant Currency, as may be necessary to compensate for the shortfall. Any obligations of the Guarantor not discharged by such payment shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, be due as a separate and independent obligation and, until discharged as provided herein, shall continue in full force and effect.

26. The Guarantor waives any and all defences, claims and discharges of any one or more of the Debtors, or any other obligor, pertaining to the Debtor Obligations, except the defence of discharge by payment in full and complete satisfaction of same. The Guarantor agrees that the undersigned shall be and remain liable for any deficiency remaining after foreclosure of any mortgage or security interest securing the Debtor Obligations, whether or not the liability of any one or more of the Debtors or any other obligor for such deficiency is discharged pursuant to statute or judicial decision.

27. This Guarantee shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein. The Guarantor agrees that any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guarantee may be instituted in the courts of the Province of Ontario and the Guarantor hereby accepts and irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the said courts and acknowledges their competence and agrees to be bound by any judgment thereof, provided that nothing herein shall limit the Administrative Agent’s right to bring proceedings against the Guarantor elsewhere.

28. This Guarantee shall not be subject to or affected by any promise or condition affecting or limiting the liability of the Guarantor hereunder except as set forth herein, and no

statement, representation, agreement or promise on the part of the Administrative Agent or any officer, employee or agent thereof, unless contained herein forms any part of this Guarantee or shall be deemed in any way to affect the Guarantor’s liability hereunder.

29. The Guarantor acknowledges that this Guarantee has been delivered free of any conditions.

32. All capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein which are defined in the Credit Agreement shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement.

SCHEDULE N

CALCULATION OF THE MANDATORY COST

1. General

The Mandatory Cost is the weighted average of the rates for each Lender calculated below by the Administrative Agent on the first day of an Interest Period. The Administrative Agent must distribute each amount of Mandatory Cost among the Lenders on the basis of the rate for each Lender. Any determination by the Administrative Agent, pursuant to this Schedule will be, in the absence of manifest error, conclusive and binding on all the parties to this Agreement.

2. For a Lender lending from a lending office in the U.K.

(a) The relevant rate for a Lender lending from a lending office in the U.K. is calculated in accordance with the following formulae:

for a Loan in Sterling:

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

100-(A + C)

for any other Loan:

E x 0.01 per cent. per annum

300

where on the day of application of the formula:

(A) is the percentage of that Lender’s eligible liabilities (in excess of any stated minimum) which the Bank of England requires it to hold on a non-interest-bearing deposit account in accordance with its cash ratio requirements;

(B) is LIBOR for that Interest Period;

(C) is the percentage of that Lender’s eligible liabilities which the Bank of England requires it to place as a special deposit;

(D) is the interest rate per annum allowed by the Bank of England on a special deposit; and

(E) is calculated by the Administrative Agent as being the average of the rates of charge supplied by the Lenders to the Administrative Agent under paragraph (d) below and expressed in pounds per £1 million.

(b) For the purposes of this paragraph 2:

(i) eligible liabilities and special deposit have the meanings given to them at the time of application of the formula by the Bank of England;

(ii) fees rules means the then current rules on periodic fees in the Supervision Manual of the FSA Handbook; and

(iii) tariff base has the meaning given to it in the fees rules.

(c) (i) In the application of the formulae, A, B, C and D are included as figures and not as percentages, e.g. if A = 0.5% and B = 15%, AB is calculated as 0.5 x 15. A negative result obtained by subtracting D from B is taken as zero.

(ii) Each rate calculated in accordance with a formula is, if necessary, rounded upward to four decimal places.

(d) (i) Each Lender must supply to the Administrative Agent the rate of charge payable by that Lender to the Financial Services Authority under the fees rules (calculated by that Lender as being the average of the rates of charge applicable to that Lender but, for this purpose, applying any applicable discount and ignoring any minimum fee required under the fees rules) and expressed in pounds per £1 million of the tariff base of that Lender.

(ii) Each Lender must promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change to the rate of charge.

(e) (i) Each Lender must supply to the Administrative Agent the information required by it to make a calculation of the rate for that Lender. The Administrative Agent may assume that this information is correct in all respects.

(ii) If a Lender fails to do so, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Lender’s obligations in respect of cash ratio deposits, special deposits and the fees rules are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a lending office in the U.K.

(iii) The Administrative Agent has no liability to any party to this Agreement if its calculation over or under compensates any Lender.

3. For a Lender lending from a lending office in a Participating Member State

(a) The relevant rate for a Lender lending from a lending office in a Participating Member State is the percentage rate per annum notified by that Lender to the Administrative Agent as its cost of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank.

(b) If a Lender fails to specify a rate under paragraph (a) above, the Administrative Agent will assume that the Lender has not incurred any such cost.

4. Changes

The Administrative Agent may, after consultation with Celestica and the Lenders, notify all the parties to this Agreement of any amendment to this Schedule which is required to reflect:

(a) any change in law or regulation; or

(b) any requirement imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any successor authority).

If the Administrative Agent, after consultation with Celestica, determines that the Mandatory Cost for a Lender lending from a lending office in the U.K. can be calculated by a reference to a screen, the Administrative Agent may notify all the parties to this Agreement of any amendment to this Agreement which is required to reflect this.

Any notification will be, in the absence of manifest error, conclusive and binding on all the parties to this Agreement.

(a) receipt of a copy of this Agreement;

As continuing security for the due and timely payment and performance by the Pledgor of each of the Obligations, the Pledgor hereby grants to the Agent a first priority security interest in the Pledged Securities. The Pledgor hereby delivers to and deposits with the Agent the security certificates, if any, evidencing the Pledged Securities together with all other documents (including, if applicable, a copy of the resolution of the board of directors approving the transfer of the Pledged Securities to the Agent or a nominee of the Agent upon the enforcement of the Agent’s rights hereunder) and effective endorsements to enable the Agent or its agent or its nominee, as the Agent may direct to be registered as the owner of and to transfer or sell the Pledged Securities upon any enforcement of the Agent’s rights and remedies hereunder. If the Pledgor acquires any security certificates evidencing the Pledged Securities after the date of this Agreement, the Pledgor shall promptly deliver the security certificates to the Agent or its nominee, as the Agent may direct, together with all other documents and effective endorsements to enable the Agent or its agent or nominee to be registered as the owner of and to transfer or sell or cause to be transferred or sold such Pledged Securities upon any enforcement of the Agent’s

rights and remedies hereunder. To the extent that any of the Pledged Securities are uncertificated securities registered in the name of the Pledgor or its nominees or agent, the Pledgor shall:

(a) cause the Issuer of the Pledged Securities to register the Agent or its agent or nominee, as the Agent may direct, as the registered owner of such Pledged Securities; or

(b) deliver to the Agent an irrevocable agreement of the Issuer of such Pledged Securities satisfactory to the Agent that the Issuer will comply with instructions that are originated by the Agent without the further consent of the Pledgor.

2.2 Attachment and Value

The Pledgor acknowledges:

(a) receipt of a copy of this Agreement;

(b) that value has been given for the granting of the security interest hereunder;

(c) that the security interest created by this Agreement attaches to the Pledged Securities immediately upon execution and delivery of this Agreement to the Agent and that the Agent and the Pledgor have not agreed to postpone the time of attachment of the pledge of the Pledged Securities by the Pledgor;

(d) if the Pledgor does not acquire rights or interests in any of the Pledged Securities until after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the security interest created by this Agreement shall attach to those Pledged Securities when the Pledgor acquires rights in those Pledged Securities;

(f) that the security interest created by this Agreement shall be effective whether all or part of the Obligations shall be advanced before, upon or after the date of execution of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 3
PROVISIONS RELATING TO THE PLEDGED SECURITIES

3.1 Voting Rights

(a) Until the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, the Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise all voting rights in respect of the Pledged Securities and to give consents, waivers, directions, notices and ratifications and to take other action in respect thereof, provided, however, that no votes shall be cast or consent, waiver, directions, notice or ratification given or action taken which would:

(i) be prejudicial to any Secured Party’s security interest granted hereunder;

(ii) restrict the transferability of the Pledged Securities; or

(iii) be inconsistent with or violate any provisions of this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(b) Until the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, if any of the Pledged Securities are registered in the Agent’s, its agent’s or nominee’s name, the Agent, on the Pledgor’s written request, shall execute and deliver or cause its agent or nominee to execute and deliver to the Pledgor suitable proxies, voting powers or powers of attorney in favour of the Pledgor or its nominee or nominees for voting, giving consents, waivers, directions, notices or ratifications or taking any other action the Pledgor is permitted to take in respect of the Pledged Securities.

3.2 Dividends and Distributions

Until the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, the Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and deal with (except as expressly restricted by this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document) any interest and regular cash dividends, distributions or other payments (whether in cash, security (as such term is defined in the PPSA) or other property) at any time payable on or with respect to the Pledged Securities, and the Agent shall immediately deliver to the Pledgor the interest or regular cash dividends, distributions or other payments received by the Agent.

3.3 Rights and Duties of the Agent

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, all of the Pledgor’s rights pursuant to Sections 3.1 and 3.2 shall cease and the Agent may enforce any of the Pledgor’s rights with respect to the Pledged Securities. Upon an Event of Default which is continuing, the Pledgor shall and shall be deemed to hold all Pledged Securities not under the control of the Agent in trust, separate and apart from other property and assets of the Pledgor, for the benefit of the Agent until all Obligations owing by the Pledgor to the Agent have been paid in full, and shall forthwith transfer control of such Pledged Securities to the Agent, or its nominee or agent, as the Agent may direct. The Agent and its nominee shall not have any duty of care with respect to the Pledged Securities other than to use the same care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Securities as it would with its own property. The Agent or its nominee is not required to take any steps to defend or preserve the Pledgor’s rights against the claims or demands of others. The Agent or its nominee, however, shall use its reasonable best efforts to give the Pledgor notice of any claim or demand of which it becomes aware to permit the Pledgor to have a reasonable opportunity to defend or contest the claim or demand.

ARTICLE 5
DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

5.1 Rights and Remedies

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, the security interest created by this Agreement shall immediately become enforceable and, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Agent may take any one or more of the following actions:

(a) realize upon and dispose of all or part of the Pledged Securities by private sale, public sale or otherwise upon such conditions as the Agent may determine, and apply and, subject to the Credit Agreement, allocate any proceeds arising from the realization of the Pledged Securities to the Obligations in any manner as the Agent, in its absolute discretion, shall deem appropriate;

(b) irrevocably elect to retain all or part of the Pledged Securities by giving notice to the Pledgor;

(c) exercise any or all of the rights and privileges attaching to the Pledged Securities and deal with the Pledged Securities as if the Agent were the absolute owner of the Pledged Securities (including causing the Pledged Securities to be registered in the name of the Agent or its agent or nominee as the Agent may direct) and collect, draw upon, receive, appropriate and sell all or any part of the Pledged Securities;

(d) file proofs of claims or other documents as may be necessary or desirable to have its claim lodged in any bankruptcy, winding-up, liquidation, arrangement, dissolution or other proceedings (voluntary or otherwise) relating to the Pledgor;

(e) commence legal action against the Pledgor for the difference, if any, between (i) all amounts owing by the Pledgor in respect of the Obligations and (ii) the proceeds received by the Agent on a disposition of the Pledged Securities;

(f) in the Pledgor’s name and at the Pledgor’s expense, perform any and all of the Pledgor’s obligations or covenants relating to the Pledged Securities and enforce performance by any other parties of their obligations in relation to the Pledged Securities and settle any disputes relating to the Pledged Securities with other parties upon terms that the Agent deems appropriate, in its discretion;

(g) appoint any Person to be a receiver (which term shall include a receiver and manager) of all or part of the Pledged Securities and remove any receiver and appoint another receiver (any receiver shall have the authority to do any of the acts specified in Subsections 5.1(c), (d), (f), (h) and (i) of this Agreement and to take possession of and collect dividends, interest, distributions and other payments payable to the Pledgor in respect of the Pledged Securities and pay all charges in respect of the Pledged Securities);

(h) subject to the Credit Agreement, apply any dividends, distributions and other payments payable to the Pledgor in respect of the Pledged Securities to the Obligations, in any manner as the Agent, in its absolute discretion, shall deem appropriate; or

(i) take any other action permitted by this Agreement, by law or in equity.

5.2 Sale of Pledged Securities

Any sale pursuant to Section 5.1 may be made, with or without any special condition as to the upset price, reserve bid, title or evidence of title or other matter and may be made from time to time as the Agent in its sole discretion deems appropriate, with power to vary or rescind any sale or buy in at any public sale and resell without being answerable for any loss. The Agent may sell the Pledged Securities for a consideration payable by instalments either with or without taking security for the payment of the instalments and may make and deliver to any purchaser good and sufficient conveyances of the Pledged Securities and give receipts for the purchase money, and the sale shall be a perpetual bar, both at law and in equity, against the Pledgor and all those claiming an interest by, from, through or under the Pledgor. If there is a sale pursuant to Section 5.1, the Pledgor agrees to provide all information, certificates and consents required under applicable securities laws or under the rules, by-laws or policies of the exchange(s) on which any of the Pledged Securities may be listed and posted for trading to permit the sale of the Pledged Securities in compliance with such applicable securities laws, rules, by-laws or policies.

The Pledgor recognizes that the Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all of the Pledged Securities, or to sell any or all of the Pledged Securities as a control block sale at more than a stated premium to the “market price” of any securities forming part of the Pledged Securities, by reason of certain provisions contained in the Securities Act (Ontario) and applicable securities laws of other jurisdictions but may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire the Pledged Securities as principal and to comply with any other resale restrictions provided for in the Securities Act (Ontario) and other applicable securities laws. The

Pledgor agrees that any private sale may result in prices and other terms less favourable to the seller than if the sale were a public sale or a control block sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by reason of its being a private sale. The Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Securities for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer of the Pledged Securities to qualify the Pledged Securities for public sale under the Securities Act (Ontario) or under applicable securities laws of other jurisdictions even if the Issuer would agree to do so, or to permit a prospective purchaser to make a formal offer to all or substantially all holders of any class of securities forming any part of the Pledged Securities.

5.3 Secured Parties’ Obligations

The Agent shall not be under any obligation, or be liable or accountable for any failure, to:

(a) enforce payment or performance of the Obligations;

(b) seize, collect, realize or obtain payment with respect to the Pledged Securities;

(d) exercise or exhaust any of its rights and remedies under this Agreement or with respect to the Pledged Securities;

(e) protect the Pledged Securities from depreciating in value or becoming worthless; and

(f) institute proceedings for any of the purposes listed above.

The Agent shall not be responsible for any loss occasioned by:

(a) any sale or other dealing with the Pledged Securities; or

(b) the retention of, or failure to sell or otherwise deal with the Pledged Securities,

except as a result of the Agent’s dishonesty, gross negligence, wilful misconduct or fraud.

5.4 Rights and Remedies Cumulative

The Agent’s rights and remedies under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not in substitution for any of the Agent’s rights or remedies under the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Eligible Hedging Agreement, at law or in equity, whether or not the Agent or any other Secured Party has pursued or is pursuing any other rights or remedies.

ARTICLE 6
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS BY THE PLEDGOR

6.1 Acknowledgements

The Pledgor agrees:

(a) that this Agreement may be assigned in whole or in part only in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement and, in the event of any assignment, the assignee(s) shall be entitled to all the Agent’s rights and remedies, and subject to the Agent’s obligations, in this Agreement; and

(b) not to assert against the Agent or any assignee of the Agent, and acknowledges that the Agent’s or any assignee’s rights shall not be subject to, any claim, defense, demand, set-off or other right, whether at law or in equity, that the Pledgor has or may have against the Agent or any assignee.

(c) subject to the Credit Agreement, otherwise deal with the Pledgor or with the Pledged Securities and any security held by the Agent,

all as the Agent may see fit without prejudice to the liability of the Pledgor to the Agent or the Agent’s rights under this Agreement. The Pledgor agrees that any waiver shall not be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach of this Agreement or Event of Default and that any failure by the Agent to exercise any of its rights or remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall in no way affect or impair the Agent’s security interest or the Agent’s rights and remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

ARTICLE 8

provisions and purposes of this Agreement or to exercise its rights and remedies hereunder. The Pledgor ratifies and agrees to ratify all acts of any attorney taken or done in accordance with this Section 8.1.
