SECTION 2 — THE CREDIT FACILITIES

2.1 Establishment of Revolving Facility

     Revolving Facility. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Credit Facility Lenders hereby agree to maintain in favour of the Revolving Facility Borrowers a committed revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) in an aggregate amount equal to the Total Revolving Commitment. Each Credit Facility Lender severally agrees to make its Revolving Commitment available to the Revolving Facility Borrowers by way of Prime Loans and Bankers’ Acceptances. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Revolving Facility Borrowers may borrow, repay and reborrow under the Revolving Facility up to the amount of the Total Revolving Commitment.

2.2 Establishment of Term Facility

     Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Credit Facility Lenders hereby agree to maintain in favour of the Term Facility Borrowers a term credit facility (the “Term Facility”) in the amount of the Total Term Commitment. As at the Closing Date, the Term Facility is fully drawn. The Term Facility is non-revolving and amounts repaid (excluding Rollovers and Conversions otherwise permitted hereunder of B/A’s on the maturity thereof) may not be reborrowed under the Term Facility and any such repayments received by a Credit Facility Lender shall be a permanent reduction of the Term Commitment of any such Credit Facility Lender. Each Credit Facility Lender severally agrees to make its Term Commitment available to the Term Facility Borrowers by way of Prime Loans and Bankers’ Acceptances.

2.3 Obligations of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent

(1) Rateable Portion. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, each Credit Facility Lender agrees to make available its Rateable Portion of each Advance (or Rollover or Conversion thereof) other than a Swing Line Loan to the applicable Borrower. No Credit Facility Lender shall be responsible for a Commitment of any other Credit Facility Lender. The failure of a Credit Facility Lender to make available an Advance (or Rollover or Conversion thereof) other than a Swing Line Loan in accordance with its obligations under this Agreement shall not release any other Credit Facility Lender from its obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Credit Facility Lender shall be obligated to make Advances available to the applicable Borrower in excess of its Term Commitment or Revolving Commitment, as the case may be. If a Credit Facility Lender does not make available its Rateable Portion of an Advance to which the applicable Borrower is otherwise entitled, one or more other Credit Facility Lenders may, in their sole discretion, make such portion of the Advance available and such additional Advance shall be added to the Obligations due to such Credit Facility Lender or Credit Facility Lenders notwithstanding that such Advance may be in excess of such Credit Facility Lender’s Rateable Portion or Term Commitment or Revolving Commitment, as the case may be. Nothing

-34-

herein shall obligate any Credit Facility Lender to make available the Rateable Portion of another Credit Facility Lender.

(2) Separate Obligation. The obligation of each Credit Facility Lender to make its Commitment available to the Revolving Facility Borrowers or Term Facility Borrowers, as applicable, is a separate obligation between each Credit Facility Lender and the Revolving Facility Borrowers or Term Facility Borrowers, as applicable, and that obligation is not the several or joint and several obligation of any other Credit Facility Lender.

2.4 Revolving Nature of Revolving Facility

     Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Revolving Facility Borrowers may increase or reduce the amount of Advances outstanding under the Revolving Facility by borrowing, repaying and reborrowing Prime Loans, Swing Line Loans and by causing the acceptance of Bankers’ Acceptances and funding them at maturity, and by causing the issue and re-issue of Letters of Credit or Letters of Guarantee from time to time. If and so long as there shall be outstanding any Advance or Advances under the Revolving Facility referred to in Section 2.5(4), all repayments made on account of the Revolving Facility shall be deemed first to be repayments on account of such Advance or Advances.

2.5 Purpose

     The proceeds of Advances made under the Revolving Facility shall be used solely for (1) Permitted Acquisitions, including any related Transaction Costs in connection therewith; (2) Capital Expenditures; (3) general corporate purposes of the Borrowers and the Material Subsidiaries (which excludes any uses related to any activity to the extent prohibited herein); and (4) for Permitted Distributions, subject to a minimum availability of $20,000,000 under the Revolving Facility after any such Permitted Distribution. For greater certainty, there will be no further Advance under the Term Facility and the Term Facility was fully Advanced under the Original Credit Agreement for the purpose of financing the acquisition of certain assets of Osprey and the Material Subsidiaries.

2.6 Borrowing Procedures — General

(1) Notice of Borrowing. All Advances other than the Swing Line Loans require notice.

No Advance shall have a term that extends beyond the Maturity Date.

(3) Purchase. If a Credit Facility Lender purchases a Bankers’ Acceptance accepted by it, the applicable Borrower shall sell and that Credit Facility Lender shall purchase the Bankers’ Acceptance at the applicable Discount Rate.

-36-

(4) Sale. Each Credit Facility Lender may from time to time hold, sell, rediscount or otherwise dispose of any or all Bankers’ Acceptances accepted and purchased by it.

(5) Power of Attorney for Execution of Bankers’ Acceptances. To facilitate availment of Advances by way of Bankers’ Acceptances, each Borrower hereby appoints each Credit Facility Lender as its attorney to sign and endorse on its behalf, in handwriting or by facsimile or mechanical signature as and when deemed necessary by such Credit Facility Lender, blank forms of Bankers’ Acceptances. In this respect, it is each Credit Facility Lender’s responsibility to maintain an adequate supply of blank forms of Bankers’ Acceptances for acceptance under this Agreement. Each Borrower recognizes and agrees that all Bankers’ Acceptances signed and/or endorsed on its behalf by a Credit Facility Lender shall bind such Borrower as fully and effectually as if signed in the handwriting of and duly issued by the proper signing officers of the applicable Borrower. Each Credit Facility Lender is hereby authorized to issue such Bankers’ Acceptances endorsed in blank in such face amounts as may be determined by such Credit Facility Lender; provided that the aggregate amount thereof is equal to the aggregate amount of Bankers’ Acceptances required to be accepted and purchased by such Credit Facility Lender. No Credit Facility Lender shall be liable for any damage, loss or other claim arising by reason of any loss or improper use of any such instrument except the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Credit Facility Lender or its officers, employees, agents or representatives. Each Credit Facility Lender shall maintain a record with respect to Bankers’ Acceptances held by it in blank hereunder, voided by it for any reason, accepted and purchased by it hereunder, and cancelled at their respective maturities. Each Credit Facility Lender agrees to provide such records to the applicable Borrower at the applicable Borrower’s expense upon request.

(6) Execution. Drafts drawn by a Borrower to be accepted as Bankers’ Acceptances shall be signed by a duly authorized officer or officers of such Borrower or by its attorneys including attorneys appointed pursuant to Section 2.8(5). Notwithstanding that any Person whose signature appears on any Bankers’ Acceptance may no longer be an authorized signatory for such Borrower at the time of issuance of a Bankers’ Acceptance, that signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes as if the authority had remained in force at the time of issuance and any Bankers’ Acceptance so signed shall be binding on such Borrower.

(7) Issuance. The Administrative Agent, promptly following receipt of a notice of Advance, Rollover or Conversion by way of Bankers’ Acceptances, shall advise the Credit Facility Lenders of the notice and shall advise each Credit Facility Lender of the name of the applicable Borrower giving such notice and the face amount of Bankers’ Acceptances to be accepted by it and the applicable Contract Period (which shall be identical for all Credit Facility Lenders). The aggregate face amount of Bankers’ Acceptances to be accepted by a Credit Facility Lender shall be determined by the Administrative Agent by reference to that Credit Facility Lender’s Rateable Portion of the issue of Bankers’ Acceptances, except that, if the face amount of a Bankers’ Acceptance which would otherwise be accepted by a Credit Facility Lender would not be Cdn$1,000, or a whole multiple thereof, the face amount shall be increased or reduced by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion to Cdn$1,000, or the nearest whole multiple of that amount, as appropriate; provided that after such issuance, no Credit Facility Lender shall have aggregate outstanding advances in excess of its Commitment.

-37-

(8) Rollover. At or before 10:00 a.m. two (2) Business Days before the maturity date of any Bankers’ Acceptances, a Borrower shall give to the Administrative Agent written notice substantially in the form attached as Schedule 2.8(8) if the applicable Borrower intends to repay the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances on the maturity date or if the applicable Borrower intends to issue Bankers’ Acceptances on the maturity date to provide for the payment of the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances. Otherwise, such Borrower shall provide payment to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Credit Facility Lenders of an amount equal to the aggregate face amount of the Bankers’ Acceptances on their maturity date. If such Borrower fails to make the payment, such Borrower’s obligations in respect of the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances shall be deemed to have been converted on the maturity date thereof into Prime Loans.

(9) Waiver of Presentment and Other Conditions. Each Borrower waives presentment for payment and any other defence to payment of any amounts due to a Credit Facility Lender in respect of a Bankers’ Acceptance accepted and purchased by it pursuant to this Agreement which might exist solely by reason of the Bankers’ Acceptance being held, at the maturity thereof, by the Credit Facility Lender in its own right and each Borrower agrees not to claim any days of grace if the Credit Facility Lender as holder sues such Borrower on the Bankers’ Acceptance for payment of the amount payable by that Borrower thereunder.

(10) Circumstances Making Bankers’ Acceptances Unavailable. If the Majority Lenders determine in good faith, which determination shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Borrowers, and notifies the Borrowers that, by reason of circumstances affecting the money market there is no market for Bankers’ Acceptances or the demand for Bankers’ Acceptances is insufficient to allow the sale or trading of the Bankers’ Acceptances created hereunder, then:

	(a)		the right of each Borrower to request an Advance by means of Bankers’ Acceptances shall be suspended until the Majority Lenders determine that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and the Administrative Agent so notifies the Borrowers; and
	(b)		any notice of Drawdown or Rollover in respect of a Bankers’ Acceptance which is outstanding shall be cancelled and any outstanding notice of Conversion to convert a Prime Rate Loan into a Bankers’ Acceptance shall be cancelled and the request for a Drawdown or Rollover by means of Bankers’ Acceptance shall be deemed to be a request for a Drawdown of, or Rollover to, a Prime Loan in the face amount of the requested Bankers’ Acceptance.

The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers of the suspension of the Borrowers’ right to request a Drawdown by means of Bankers’ Acceptances and of the termination of any such suspension.

(11) BA Equivalent Loans by Non BA Lenders. Whenever a Borrower requests an Advance under this Agreement by way of Bankers’ Acceptances, each Non BA Lender shall, in lieu of accepting a Bankers’ Acceptance, make a BA Equivalent Loan to such Borrower in an amount equal to the Non BA Lender’s Rateable Portion of the Advance.

-38-

(12) Terms Applicable to Discount Notes. As set out in the definition of Bankers’ Acceptances, that term includes Discount Notes and all terms of this Agreement applicable to Bankers’ Acceptances shall apply equally to Discount Notes evidencing BA Equivalent Loans with such changes as may in the context be necessary. For greater certainty:

	(a)		the term of a Discount Note shall be the same as the Contract Period for Bankers’ Acceptances accepted and purchased on the same Drawdown Date in respect of the same Advance;
	(b)		an acceptance fee will be payable in respect of a Discount Note and shall be calculated at the same rate and in the same manner as the Acceptance Fee in respect of a Bankers’ Acceptance; and
	(c)		the Discount Rate applicable to a Discount Note shall be the Discount Rate applicable to Bankers’ Acceptances accepted by the Administrative Agent (as Credit Facility Lender) on the same Drawdown Date, Rollover Date or Conversion Date, as the case may be, in respect of the same Advance.

(13) Depository Bills and Notes Act. At the option of the Borrowers and any Credit Facility Lender, Bankers’ Acceptances under this Agreement to be accepted by that Credit Facility Lender may be issued in the form of depository bills for deposit with The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited pursuant to the Depository Bills and Notes Act (Canada). All depository bills so issued shall be governed by the provisions of this Section 2.8.

2.9 Swing Line Loans

(1) Swing Line Accounts. The Swing Line Lender has established at its Branch of Account an account for each Revolving Facility Borrower which is referred to as a “Swing Line Account.” The Swing Line Account shall record the day to day banking business of each Revolving Facility Borrower through the Swing Line Lender (other than under this Agreement). If, at the end of any Business Day, the aggregate balance in the Swing Line Accounts:

	(a)		is a credit in excess of $100,000, the Swing Line Lender may apply the amount of the credit or any part thereof rounded down to the nearest Cdn$25,000 as applicable, as a repayment of Swing Line Loans owing to the Swing Line Lender; or
	(b)		is a debit, the Swing Line Lender shall, if there is sufficient availability under its Commitment, make available an Advance (a “Swing Line Loan”) by way of Prime Loan in an amount rounded up to the nearest Cdn$25,000 to place the applicable Revolving Facility Borrower in a minimum net credit position of zero (an “Overdraft”).

In addition, the Revolving Facility Borrowers may request Swing Line Loans and Letters of Credit or Letters of Guarantee in accordance with the applicable notice requirement set out in Section 2.6.

-39-

(2) Advances. Advances by the Swing Line Lender outstanding under this Section are limited to Cdn$10,000,000. The aggregate amount of all Swing Line Loans, Advances and the face amount of all issued and outstanding Letter(s) of Credit and Letter(s) of Guarantee shall be deducted from the availability under the Revolving Facility. Each Advance under the Swing Line Facility shall be available only by way of Prime Loans and Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee. At any time, and from time to time, the Swing Line Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent of the requirement for an Advance by way of Prime Loan under the Revolving Facility and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Credit Facility Lenders of such requirements and the amount of such Advance to be made available by each of them in an amount as nearly equal to that Credit Facility Lender’s Rateable Portion of the, Advances by the Swing Line Lender outstanding under this Section as is possible under the limitations regarding amount set out in Section 2.7. The proceeds of that Advance shall be deposited by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Swing Line Account to be applied against the Swing Line Lender’s Advances made available under this Section.

(3) Letters of Credit. The Swing Line Lender may, at the request of a Revolving Facility Borrower, issue Letters of Credit or Letters of Guarantee under the Swing Line Facility, in accordance with the notice requirements of Section 2.7 and the provisions of Section 2.10. The maximum amount of exposure of the L/C Issuer to the beneficiary under all Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee outstanding at any time shall be deducted from the maximum of Swing Line Loans available under Section 2.9(2).

(4) Provisions relating to Swing Line Facility. While the Swing Line Lender is the sole Lender making Advances or issuing Letters of Credit or Letters of Guarantee under the Swing Line Facility, its participation in Advances under the Revolving Facility which are not made under the Swing Line Facility (“Non-Swing Line Advances”) shall be reduced, and the participations of the other Credit Facility Lenders in such Non-Swing Line Advances shall be increased, and such participations may be adjusted from time to time, as determined by the Administrative Agent, so that each Credit Facility Lender’s overall Rateable Portion of the aggregate of all Advances under the Revolving Facility, including the Swing Line Facility is, to the greatest extent practicable, equal to the Rateable Portion of each Credit Facility Lender. For greater certainty, the maximum aggregate amount of Advances and Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee that could be outstanding under the Swing Line Facility at any time shall be deducted from the availability of the Swing Line Lender to make Non-Swing Line Advances.

(5) Transfer Relating to Rateable Portion. Notwithstanding that Advances and Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee under the Swing Line Facility are from time to time made by the Swing Line Lender and the Swing Line Lender’s participation in Non-Swing Line Advances is reduced, and the participation of the other Credit Facility Lenders in Non-Swing Line Advances is increased in accordance with Section 2.9(4), it is the intention of the parties that the ultimate credit risk and exposure of each Credit Facility Lender in respect of the Revolving Facility be in accordance with its Rateable Portion of the entire amount of the Revolving Facility. Accordingly, upon the Obligations becoming due and payable under Section 11.2, each Credit Facility Lender shall (and hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to) do all such things, including delivery of indemnity agreements and assignments to other Credit Facility Lenders of Advances and Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee made by the Swing Line Lender under the Swing Line Facility or assignments to the Swing Line Lender of Non-Swing

-40-

Line Advances made by other Credit Facility Lenders as shall be required to ensure that result. Any such action on the part of the Credit Facility Lenders shall be binding on the Revolving Facility Borrowers and the Material Subsidiaries.

If any Credit Facility Lender fails to take the actions required by this Section, the Administrative Agent may, without prejudice to the other rights of the Credit Facility Lenders, make such adjustments to the payments to the defaulting Credit Facility Lender under this Agreement as are necessary to compensate the other Credit Facility Lenders for the defaulting Credit Facility Lender’s failure.

(6) Swing Line Facility After Acceleration. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.9(5) regarding the assignment of interests in Advances and Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee under the Swing Line Facility in the event of acceleration of payment of the Obligations, the provisions of this Agreement do not apply to Advances and issuance of Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee under the Swing Line Facility to the extent that the provisions contemplate the participation by any Credit Facility Lender other than the Swing Line Lender in making Advances and issuing Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee and receiving payments in respect of Advances and Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee under the Swing Line Facility. All Advances and issuing Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee under the Swing Line Facility shall be made solely by the Swing Line Lender and records concerning such Advances and Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee shall be maintained solely by the Swing Line Lender. All Payments of principal, interest, fees and other amounts relating to Advances and Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee under the Swing Line Facility shall be made solely to the Swing Line Lender. Any notices by the Revolving Facility Borrowers in connection with the Swing Line Facility shall be made to the Swing Line Lender. Notice and minimum amount requirements in respect of Advances shall not apply to Advances by way of Overdrafts under the Swing Line Facility.

2.10 Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee

(1) Currency. Each Letter of Credit and Letter of Guarantee shall be issued in Canadian Dollars or U.S. Dollars and shall mature on a Business Day.

(2) Maximum Amount. The aggregate Advances which may be outstanding by way of Letter of Credit and Letter of Guarantee shall not exceed Cdn$2,000,000 or the Equivalent Amount in U.S. Dollars.

(3) Other Documentation. The issue of a Letter of Credit or a Letter of Guarantee is subject to the execution and delivery of an application and agreement or other specific agreement relative to the instrument in form and substance satisfactory to the L/C Issuer acting reasonably (“L/C Agreement”). In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the L/C Agreement and this Agreement, this Agreement shall prevail.

(4) Retirement. A Letter of Credit or a Letter of Guarantee may only be retired on its maturity date unless and to the extent it has been honoured or unless the written consent of the beneficiary of the instrument has been obtained and the original instrument has been returned to the issuing Credit Facility Lender.

-41-

(5) Drawings. Any drawing under a Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee shall be funded by an Advance by way of a Swing Line Loan.

(6) Term. Each Letter of Credit and Letter of Guarantee shall have a Contract Period of not less than thirty (30) days or more than 365 days.

(7) Rollover. Before the maturity date of any Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee the applicable Revolving Facility Borrower shall notify the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender by notice substantially in the form attached as Schedule 2.10(7) if it wishes the issue of a replacement Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee on the maturity date. If such Revolving Facility Borrower fails to provide the foregoing notice, the maturing Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee shall expire on its maturity date.

(8) Reimbursement. The L/C Issuer will notify the applicable Revolving Facility Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly following the presentment for payment of any Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee 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 or Letter of Guarantee, the L/C Issuer shall make such payment to the beneficiary (or its designee) of such Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee (each, a “Disbursement”). Unless such Revolving Facility Borrower has made alternative arrangements with the L/C Issuer with respect to payment of an amount sufficient to permit the L/C Issuer to discharge its obligations under the Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee together with that amount equal to any and all charges and expenses which the L/C Issuer may pay or incur in respect to such Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee, on or prior to 12:00 noon, Toronto time on the Disbursement Date, such Revolving Facility Borrower will reimburse the L/C Issuer for all amounts disbursed under the Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee together with that amount equal to any and all charges and expenses which the L/C Issuer may pay or incur in respect of such Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee failing which, any such payment so payable shall be deemed to be an Advance in accordance with Section 2.10(5) hereof; provided that the provisions of Section 7 regarding conditions for Advances shall not apply to such Advances. In the event that any amount so payable by the L/C Issuer exceeds the amount available to be drawn down by the Revolving Facility Borrowers under the Swing Line Facility, then forthwith upon receipt of such notice, the Revolving Facility Borrowers shall provide to the L/C Issuer an amount equal to such excess amount. The Revolving Facility Borrowers’ obligation (a “Reimbursement Obligation”) to reimburse the L/C Issuer with respect to each Disbursement, shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim, or defence to payment which the Revolving Facility Borrowers may have or have had against any Credit Facility Lender or any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee, including any defence based upon the occurrence of any Default, any draft, demand or certificate or other document presented under a Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient, the failure of any Disbursement to conform to the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee (if, in the L/C Issuer’s good faith opinion, acting reasonably, 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 or Letter of Guarantee; provided, however, that nothing herein shall adversely affect the right of the Revolving Facility Borrowers to commence any proceeding against the L/C Issuer for any wrongful Disbursement made by the

-42-

L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee as a result of gross negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of the L/C Issuer.

(9) 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 11.2 or the occurrence of the Maturity Date, an amount equal to any portion of an outstanding and undrawn Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee shall, at the election of the L/C Issuer acting on instructions from the Majority Lenders, and without demand upon or notice to the Revolving Facility Borrowers, be deemed to have been paid or disbursed by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee (notwithstanding that such amount may not in fact have been so paid or disbursed), and, upon notification by the L/C Issuer to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Revolving Facility Borrower of its obligations under this Section 2.10(9), such Revolving Facility Borrower shall be immediately obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount deemed to have been so paid or disbursed by the L/C Issuer. Any amounts so received by the L/C Issuer from such Revolving Facility Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.10(9) shall be held in an interest bearing account with the L/C Issuer as collateral security for the repayment of such Revolving Facility Borrower’s obligations in connection with the Letters of Credit or Letters of Guarantee issued by the L/C Issuer. At any time when such Letters of Credit or Letters of Guarantee shall terminate or be reduced, the obligations of the Revolving Facility Borrowers under this Section 2.10(9) shall be reduced accordingly (subject, however, to reinstatement in the event any payment in respect of such Letters of Credit or Letters of Guarantee is recovered in any manner from the L/C Issuer), and the L/C Issuer will return to the applicable Revolving Facility Borrower the amount, if any, by which (i) the amount deposited by such Revolving Facility Borrower with the L/C Issuer together with accrued interest thereon; (ii) exceeds the amount applied by the L/C Issuer to any Reimbursement Obligation of such Revolving Facility Borrower less the amount of all Reimbursement Obligations of such Revolving Facility Borrower.

     If, pursuant to Section 11.2, 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 L/C Issuer shall return to the applicable Revolving Facility Borrower all amounts then on deposit with such L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section 2.10(9).

(10) Nature of Reimbursement Obligations. The Revolving Facility Borrowers shall assume all risks of the acts, omissions, or misuse of any Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee it has requested by the beneficiary thereof. Neither the L/C Issuer nor any Credit Facility Lender (except to the extent of its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct) shall be responsible for:

	(a)		the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness, or legal effect of any Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee or any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for or issuance of a Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee, 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

-43-

Credit or Letter of Guarantee 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 or Letter of Guarantee;
	(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 Letter of Guarantee 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 L/C Issuer or any Credit Facility Lender hereunder. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the L/C Issuer in good faith (other than gross negligence or wilful misconduct) shall be binding upon the Revolving Facility Borrowers and shall not subject the L/C Issuer to any resulting liability to the Revolving Facility Borrowers.

(11) Indemnity for Costs. The Revolving Facility Borrowers shall indemnify the L/C Issuer against any and all costs, damages, expenses, taxes (other than taxes on overall net income, assets or capital), claims and demands which the L/C Issuer 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 the Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee or arising in connection with any amounts payable by the L/C Issuer thereunder.

2.11 Hedge Contracts

(1) Procedure. Each Lender may establish an uncommitted Hedging Facility in favour of any Borrower. Any Borrower may enter into Hedge Contracts under the Hedging Facilities from time to time over the telephone with representatives of a Lender’s trading unit, the terms of which shall be confirmed in writing in accordance with the procedures established by the trading unit of the relevant Lender. Any Hedge Contracts entered into with a Lender must be permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

(2) Terms and Conditions. Each Hedge Contract is governed by the terms and conditions set out in the confirmation forwarded by the applicable Lender to the applicable Borrower on entering into the Hedge Contract and any applicable ISDA agreement. If there is a conflict between the terms and conditions set out in the confirmation or ISDA agreement and this Agreement, the confirmation or ISDA agreement shall govern unless otherwise expressly provided herein or therein.

(3) Maturity. Hedge Contracts may, at the discretion of each Lender, have Contract Periods extending beyond the Maturity Date. Any Hedge Contract entered into with any Lender at any time shall survive such Lender or its Affiliate ceasing to be a Credit Facility Lender hereunder or the termination of this Agreement.

-44-

(4) Uncommitted. Any Lender may, at its sole discretion, decline to make any Hedge Contract available to any Borrower at any time.

2.12 Conversion Option

     Subject to this Agreement, a Borrower may, during the term of this Agreement, effective on any Business Day, convert, in whole or in part, an outstanding Advance (other than by way of Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee) into another type of Advance permitted under the Credit Facility (other than by way of Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee) upon giving written notice to the Administrative Agent in substantially the form attached hereto as Schedule 2.12, the notice period being that which would be applicable to the type of Advance into which the outstanding Advance is to be converted. Conversions under this Section 2.12 may only be made provided that:

	(a)		each conversion to an Advance shall be for minimum aggregate amounts and whole multiples in excess thereof as are specified in respect of that type of Advance in this Section 2;
	(b)		an Advance by way of Bankers’ Acceptance may be converted only on the last day of the relevant Contract Period; if less than all Advances by way of Bankers’ Acceptances are converted, after the conversion not less than Cdn$1,000,000 shall remain as Advances by way of Bankers’ Acceptances; and
	(c)		no Conversion into or Rollover of Bankers’ Acceptances shall be permitted if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the relevant Conversion Date or Rollover Date or after giving effect to the Conversion or Rollover of the Advance to be made on the Conversion Date or Rollover Date.

2.13 Conversion and Rollover Not Repayment

     No Conversion or Rollover shall constitute a repayment of any Advance or a new Advance.

2.14 Determination Final

     With respect to all matters referred to in this Section 2, the determination by the Administrative Agent shall be final, conclusive and binding on each Borrower and the Lenders, absent manifest error.

2.15 Mandatory Conversion of Bankers’ Acceptances

     Notwithstanding Sections 2.8(8) and 2.12, and subject to Section 10.2, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the maturity date of a Bankers’ Acceptance, in respect of an Advance by way of Bankers’ Acceptances, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have converted such Advance into a Prime Loan in an amount equal to the face amount of the Bankers’ Acceptances on the maturity date.

-45-

2.16 Reliance on Oral Instructions

     The Administrative Agent and any Credit Facility Lender shall be entitled to act upon the oral instructions of any Person who the Administrative Agent or the Credit Facility Lender, acting reasonably, believes is a Person authorized by a Borrower to act on such Borrower’s behalf. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Credit Facility Lender shall be responsible for any error or omission in those instructions or in the performance thereof except in the case of gross negligence or wilful misconduct by the Administrative Agent, the Credit Facility Lender or their respective employees. Any instructions so given shall be confirmed in writing by the applicable Borrower to the Administrative Agent or the Credit Facility Lender, as applicable, on the same day. The applicable Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Credit Facility Lender for any loss or expense suffered or incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Credit Facility Lender as a consequence of the Administrative Agent or the Credit Facility Lender acting upon instructions given or agreements made over the telephone or by electronic transmission of any type with Persons reasonably believed by the Administrative Agent or the Credit Facility Lender to have been acting on such Borrower’s behalf.

2.17 Deposit of Proceeds of Loans and Discount Proceeds

     The Administrative Agent shall credit to the applicable Borrower’s Account on the applicable Drawdown Date (a) the proceeds of each Advance by way of Prime Loans made to such Borrower and (b) the Discount Proceeds less the applicable Acceptance Fee with respect to each Bankers’ Acceptance purchased and each BA Equivalent Loan advanced by a Credit Facility Lender to such Borrower on that Drawdown Date. Where a Borrower has made separate arrangements for the purchase of Bankers’ Acceptances issued under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall debit such Borrower’s Account for the applicable Acceptance Fee upon acceptance and such Borrower shall deposit the Discount Proceeds to the applicable Borrower’s Account immediately upon receipt.

2.18 Evidence of Obligations

     The Administrative Agent shall open and maintain at its Branch of Account, accounts and records evidencing the Credit Facility Obligations of each Borrower to each Credit Facility Lender with respect to Advances made available by that Credit Facility Lender to such Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall record in those accounts by appropriate entries all amounts on account of those Credit Facility Obligations and all payments on account thereof. Those accounts and records will constitute, in the absence of manifest error, prima facie evidence of those Credit Facility Obligations from time to time, the date each Advance was made and the amounts that each Borrower has paid from time to time on account of those Credit Facility Obligations.

2.19 Single Obligation of Borrowers

     All Advances to the Borrowers and all of the other Obligations of the Borrowers arising under this Agreement and the other Documents shall constitute one general joint and several obligation of the Borrowers.

(2) Change in Rate. Each change in the fluctuating interest rate applicable to each Prime Loan will take place simultaneously with the corresponding change in the Prime Rate without the necessity for any notice to the applicable Borrower.

(3) Calculation. Interest on Prime Loans shall be payable monthly in arrears on every Interest Payment Date and on the Maturity Date for the period from and including, as the case may be, the Drawdown Date, the Conversion Date or the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date to but excluding the first-mentioned Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as applicable, and shall be calculated on a daily basis on the principal amount of the Prime Loans remaining unpaid on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 365 days.

Each determination by the Administrative Agent of the issuance fee applicable to a Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee shall, in the absence of manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon the Revolving Facility Borrowers.

3.4 Pricing Matrix

     For the purposes of this Section 3, the Applicable Margin with respect to Prime Loans, the Acceptance Fee and Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee fees shall be selected from the following matrix as set forth in the applicable column:

-47-

				Acceptance Fees, Letter of
				Credit and Letter of
Total Debt to EBITDA		Prime Loans		Guarantee Fees
³3.0x		0.750%		1.750%
>2.5x		0.375%		1.375%
£2.5x		0.100%		1.100%

     The Total Debt to EBITDA shall be determined based on the Total Debt of Bidco and the Material Subsidiaries to EBITDA of Bidco and the Material Subsidiaries as set out in the most recent Compliance Certificate of Bidco delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Credit Facility Lenders in accordance with Section 9.4(2) or as set out below. Each change in the fluctuating interest rate applicable to each Prime Loan will take place simultaneously with the delivery of a Compliance Certificate evidencing a change in the Total Debt to EBITDA calculation to be used.

     The margins applicable to Prime Loans, Acceptance Fees and Letter of Credit and Letter of Guarantee fees set forth above will be determined on a consolidated and rolling four Fiscal Quarter basis; provided, that upon a Permitted Acquisition or divestiture by a Borrower or a Material Subsidiary, Bidco agrees to provide each Credit Facility Lender with Compliance Certificates for Bidco in each case, and any acquired company, in the case of a Permitted Acquisition, on the date of closing of any Permitted Acquisition or divestiture, and that the Applicable Margins shall be adjusted with respect to Prime Loans outstanding on the date of closing of the Permitted Acquisition or divestiture and with respect to other Advances, on the date such other Advance is made.

     Bidco shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and each Credit Facility Lender Compliance Certificates for Bidco and the Material Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date, and the Applicable Margins shall be adjusted as of the Closing Date with respect to Prime Loans outstanding and as of the date of issuance with respect to all outstanding Bankers Acceptances, Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee and any additional Acceptance Fees and Letter of Credit and Letter of Guarantee fees shall be due and payable on the Closing Date to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account for payment, for the account of the Credit Facility Lenders with outstanding Banker’s Acceptances, Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee, as the case may be.

     If Bidco fail to deliver a Compliance Certificate as required by Section 9.4 hereof, the Credit Facility Lenders may adjust, on the date such Compliance Certificate should have been delivered, the pricing on all Advances based on the information they have available. If a Compliance Certificate is delivered after the time set out in Section 9.4 or if a Compliance Certificate proves to have been incorrect when delivered, the Credit Facility Lenders may readjust the fees and rates paid on a retroactive basis such that the fees and rates paid reflect what should have been paid had the Compliance Certificate been delivered timely or correct when delivered, as the case may be.

-48-

3.5 Fees

     Each Borrower shall pay an agency fee to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of the Agency Fee Letter.

3.6 Commitment Fees

(1) Commitment Fees. On the first Business Day in each Fiscal Quarter during the term of this Credit Facility (from the Closing Date to the Maturity Date) and on the Maturity Date (each a “Commitment Fee Payment Date”), the Revolving Facility Borrowers shall pay in arrears to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account for Payments for the account of the Credit Facility Lenders, a non-refundable commitment fee in Canadian Dollars (the “Commitment Fee”) on the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Facility at a rate per annum equal to (i) 0.250%, if the ratio of Total Debt to EBITDA of the Borrowers and the Material Subsidiaries is less than or equal to 2.5:1; (ii) 0.300%, if the ratio of Total Debt to EBITDA of the Borrowers and the Material Subsidiaries is greater than 2.5:1 but less than 3.0:1; and (iii) 0.400%, if the ratio of Total Debt to EBITDA of the Borrowers and the Material Subsidiaries is greater than or equal to 3.0:1.

(2) Calculations. The Commitment Fee shall be payable for the period from and including the Closing Date or the last Commitment Fee Payment Date, as the case may be, to but excluding the next Commitment Fee Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as applicable, and shall be calculated on a daily basis on the uncancelled portion of the Total Revolving Commitment in effect from time to time on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 365 days. Each Credit Facility Lender shall be entitled to its Rateable Portion of each Commitment Fee.

3.7 Interest on Overdue Amounts

     A Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Credit Facility Lenders interest on overdue amounts owing by such Borrower both before and after demand, default and judgment at a rate per annum equal to the same rate as is applicable to the amount overdue, if principal or interest, and in the case of any other overdue amount at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus 2% per annum, in each case calculated on a daily basis on the actual number of days elapsed in a 365 day year, computed from the date the amount becomes due for so long as the amount remains overdue. Interest shall be payable upon demand made by the Administrative Agent and shall be compounded on each Interest Payment Date.

3.8 Interest Act

     For purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), where in this Agreement a rate of interest is to be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate is equivalent is the rate multiplied by the number of days in the year for which the calculation is made and divided by 365.

3.9 Limit on Rate of Interest

(1) Adjustment. If any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Documents would obligate a Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Credit

-49-

Facility Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by that Credit Facility Lender of interest at a criminal rate (as construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then notwithstanding that provision, that amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or result in a receipt by that Credit Facility Lender of interest at a criminal rate, the adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, as follows:

	(a)		firstly, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid by such Borrower to the affected Credit Facility Lender under this Section 3; and
	(b)		thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid by such Borrower to the affected Credit Facility Lender which would constitute interest for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).

(2) Reimbursement. Notwithstanding Section 3.9(1), and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if any Credit Facility Lender shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by the Criminal Code (Canada), then the applicable Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in writing to the affected Credit Facility Lender, to obtain reimbursement from that Credit Facility Lender in an amount equal to the excess, and pending reimbursement, the amount of the excess shall be deemed to be an amount payable by that Credit Facility Lender to the applicable Borrower.

(3) Actuarial Principles. Any amount or rate of interest referred to in this Section 3.9 shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term that any Advance remains outstanding on the assumption that any charges, fees or expenses that fall within the meaning of interest (as defined in the Criminal Code (Canada)) shall, if they relate to a specific period of time, be pro-rated over that period of time and otherwise be pro-rated over the period from the Closing Date to the Maturity Date and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive for the purposes of that determination.

3.10 Change in Circumstances

(1) Reduction in Rate of Return. If at any time any change in any Applicable Law or any interpretation thereof after the date of this Agreement, or compliance by the Credit Facility Lender with any direction, requirement, guidelines or policies or request from any regulatory authority given after the date of this Agreement, whether or not having the force of law, has or would have, as a consequence of a Credit Facility Lender’s obligation under this Agreement, and taking into consideration the Credit Facility Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy, the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Credit Facility Lender’s capital to a level below that which the Credit Facility Lender would have achieved but for the change or compliance, then from time to time, upon demand of the Credit Facility Lender, the Borrowers shall pay the Credit Facility Lender such additional amounts as will compensate the Credit Facility Lender for the reduction.

-50-

(2) Taxes, Reserves, Capital Adequacy, etc. If, after the date of this Agreement, the introduction of any Applicable Law or any change or introduction of a change in any Applicable Law (whether or not having the force of law) or in the interpretation or application thereof by any court or by any Governmental Authority, central bank or other authority or entity charged with the administration thereof, or any change in the compliance of any Credit Facility Lender therewith now or hereafter:

	(a)		subjects any Credit Facility Lender to, or causes the withdrawal or termination of a previously granted exemption with respect to, any Tax or changes the basis of taxation, or increases any existing Tax, on payments of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable by a Borrower to the Credit Facility Lender under or by virtue of this Agreement (except for Excluded Taxes);
	(b)		imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special deposit, deposit insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by or any other acquisition of funds by, an office of any Credit Facility Lender in respect of any Advance or any other condition with respect to this Agreement;
	(c)		imposes on a Credit Facility Lender or expects there to be maintained by a Credit Facility Lender any additional capital in respect of the Credit Facilities; or
	(d)		imposes any Tax on reserves or deemed reserves with respect to the undrawn portion of the Revolving Commitment of any Credit Facility Lender.

and the result of any of the foregoing, in the sole determination of the Credit Facility Lender acting reasonably, shall be to increase the cost to, or reduce the amount received or receivable by the Credit Facility Lender or its effective rate of return in respect of making, maintaining or funding an Advance hereunder, the Credit Facility Lender shall, acting reasonably, determine that amount of money which shall compensate the Credit Facility Lender for the increase in cost or reduction in income.

(3) Payment of Additional Compensation. Upon a Credit Facility Lender having determined that it is entitled to compensation in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.10 (“Additional Compensation”), the Credit Facility Lender shall promptly so notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and shall provide to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent a photocopy of the relevant Applicable Law or request, as applicable, and a certificate of an officer of the Credit Facility Lender setting forth the Additional Compensation and the basis of calculation thereof, which shall be conclusive evidence of the Additional Compensation in the absence of manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay to the Credit Facility Lender within thirty (30) Business Days of the giving of notice the Additional Compensation for the account of the Credit Facility Lender accruing from the date of the notification. The Credit Facility Lender shall be entitled to be paid Additional Compensation from time to time to the extent that the provisions of this Section 3.10 are then applicable notwithstanding that the Credit Facility Lender has previously been paid Additional Compensation.

-51-

(4) Commercially Reasonable. If it is commercially reasonable in the opinion of a Credit Facility Lender receiving Additional Compensation under this Section 3.10, the Credit Facility Lender shall make reasonable efforts to limit the incidence of that Additional Compensation, including seeking recovery for the account of the Borrowers following the Borrowers’ request and at the Borrowers’ expense, if the Credit Facility Lender, in its sole determination, would suffer no appreciable economic, legal, regulatory or other disadvantage as a result.

3.11 Payment of Portion

     Notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement, if a Credit Facility Lender gives the notice provided for in Section 3.10 with respect to any Advance (an “Affected Borrowing”), the applicable Borrower may, at its option, upon five (5) Business Days notice to that Credit Facility Lender (which notice shall be irrevocable), repay to the Credit Facility Lender in full without penalty (other than any breakage costs incurred by such Credit Facility Lender in terminating a B/A or a Letter of Credit or Letter of Guarantee prior to its maturity date) the Credit Facility Lender’s proportionate share of the Affected Borrowing outstanding together with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount so repaid up to the date of repayment, together with such Additional Compensation as may be applicable to the date of payment.

3.12 Illegality

     If any change in Applicable Law, or in the interpretation or application thereof by any court or by any Governmental Authority or central bank or comparable agency or any other entity charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Credit Facility Lender with any request or direction (whether or not having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency or other entity, now or hereafter makes it unlawful or impossible for the Credit Facility Lender to make, fund or maintain an Advance or to perform its obligations under or by virtue of this Agreement, the Credit Facility Lender may, by written notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, terminate its obligations to make further Advances of such type under this Agreement, and the applicable Borrowers or Borrowers, if required by the Credit Facility Lender, shall repay forthwith (or at the end of such longer period as the Credit Facility Lender in its discretion has agreed) the principal amount of the Advance together with accrued interest without penalty or bonus (and in the case of Bankers’ Acceptances, the face amount thereof) and such Additional Compensation as may be applicable to the date of payment and all other outstanding Credit Facility Obligations to the Credit Facility Lender. If any change shall only affect a portion of any Credit Facility Lender’s obligations under this Agreement which is 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 the Credit Facility Lender or the Borrowers under this Agreement, the Credit Facility Lender shall only declare its obligations under that portion so terminated.

3.13 Indemnity

(1) General. Each Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Credit Facility Lender and their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents (each, an

-52-

“Indemnified Person”) against all suits, actions, proceedings, claims, losses (other than loss of profits), expenses (including reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel), damages and liabilities including liabilities arising under Environmental Laws (each, a “Claim”) that the Administrative Agent or the Credit Facility Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) any default by a Borrower under this Agreement or any other Document, or (b) any representation or warranty made herein or any other Document by a Borrower or any Subsidiary which was incorrect at the time it was made, or (c) the Administrative Agent or the Credit Facility Lender entering into this Agreement, or (d) the use of proceeds of the Credit Facilities by a Borrower, or (e) the operations of a Borrower, except that no Indemnified Person will be indemnified for any claim to the extent it results from its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

(2) Certificate. A certificate of the Administrative Agent or the affected Credit Facility Lender, as the case may be, setting out the basis for the determination of the amount necessary to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Credit Facility Lender pursuant to this Section 3.13 shall be conclusive evidence, absent manifest error, of the correctness of that determination.

(3) Right to Assume Defence. If any Claim be asserted against an Indemnified Person by a third party the Indemnified party shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower of the Claim and, when known, the facts constituting the bases for such Claim, and if known, the amount or an estimate of the amount of the Claim. The failure of an Indemnified party to give notice of a Claim promptly shall not (other than gross negligence or wilful misconduct) adversely affect the Indemnified Party’s rights to indemnity hereunder. The Indemnified party shall not settle or compromise any Claim by a third party for which it is entitled to indemnification under this Section 3.13, without prior written consent of the applicable Borrower except as set out below. Such Borrower at its sole cost and expense may, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, assume the defence of any such Claim or any legal proceeding resulting therefrom. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defence of any such action, with his own counsel. If such Borrower does not assume the defence of any such Claim or litigation resulting therefrom, the Indemnified Party may defend against any such Claim or litigation, in such manner as it deems appropriate and at the expense of such Borrower, including, but not limited to settling such Claim or litigation, after giving notice of the same and receiving the consent of such Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). In such case such Borrower shall be entitled to participate in the defence of such action with its own counsel and at its own expense. If such Borrower (i) unreasonably fails to provide its consent; or (ii) fails to take over control of the defence of such Claim, the Indemnified Person may defend against such Claim or litigation in such manner as it deems appropriate and at the expense of such Borrower including settling such Claim or litigation.

(4) Survival. It is the intention of each Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Credit Facility Lender that Section 2.16 and this Section 3.13 shall supersede any other provisions in this Agreement which in any way limit the liability of a Borrower and that such Borrower shall be liable for any obligations arising under Section 2.16 and this Section 3.13 even if the amount of the liability incurred exceeds the amount of the other Obligations. The obligations of each Borrower under these Sections are absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any act, omission or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not occasioned by the fault of the Administrative Agent or a Credit Facility Lender, except in respect of gross negligence or wilful

-53-

misconduct by it. The obligations of each Borrower under Section 2.16 and this Section 3.13 shall survive the repayment of the other Obligations and the termination of the Credit Facilities.

SECTION 4 — REDUCTION AND REPAYMENT

4.1 Term and Maturity of Revolving Facility

     The term of the Revolving Facility and the Swing Line Account contained therein shall commence on the Closing Date and end on the Maturity Date.

4.2 Term and Maturity of Term Facility

     The term of the Term Facility shall commence on the Original Closing Date and end on the Maturity Date.

4.3 Repayment of Revolving Facility

     All Advances and other amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility including principal, interest and fees shall be paid, all outstanding Bankers’ Acceptances, Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee shall be cash collateralized or replaced in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Facility shall be cancelled, on the Maturity Date.

4.4 Repayment of Term Facility

     The Term Facility shall be repaid and permanently reduced on the Maturity Date.

4.5 Mandatory Repayment

     The Total Term Commitment and the principal amount of the Term Facility shall be permanently reduced by an amount equal to (1) all proceeds of insurance claims (“Insurance Proceeds”) in excess of $3,000,000, other than proceeds of claims under business interruption insurance, in respect of any of the assets and undertaking of a Borrower, or any Material Subsidiary which are not reinvested or set aside for reinvestment in property and assets which would qualify as a Permitted Acquisition within 12 months after the receipt of such Insurance Proceeds; provided, that in the case of amounts set aside for reinvestment, the Borrowers or Material Subsidiary shall have taken steps to acquire such property or assets within such 12 month period; and (2) all of the net cash proceeds (after Transaction Costs) of any asset sale by a Borrower or any Material Subsidiary out of the ordinary course of business, other than (i) proceeds from the sale of the telephone directory business and the sale of the magazine division to Groupe TVA Inc., but including any regulatory mandated dispositions, (ii) proceeds from the sale of assets previously acquired as part of a Tax Benefit Transaction and (iii) any asset sale permitted pursuant to the last sentence of section 9.2(1) (“Asset Sale Proceeds”) in excess of $3,000,000 where the Asset Sale Proceeds are not, within 12 months after receipt of such Asset Sale Proceeds, reinvested in property and assets that would qualify as a Permitted Acquisition.

-54-

4.6 Permanent Prepayment

     From time to time, prior to the Maturity Date, the Term Facility Borrowers may permanently prepay, without penalty, in whole or in part, the Advances outstanding under the Term Facility provided that all accrued interest with respect to the amount to be prepaid shall have been paid. Payments shall be in the minimum aggregate amount of Cdn$500,000, and shall be made in Cdn$100,000 multiples. The Term Facility Borrowers shall give three (3) Business Days’ notice of their desire to make any prepayment, substantially in the form as attached hereto as Schedule 4.6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if outstanding Bankers’ Acceptances are prepaid, the Term Facility Borrowers shall be required to deposit the amount of such prepayment in a cash collateral account with the Administrative Agent until the date of maturity of those Bankers’ Acceptances. The cash collateral account shall be under the sole control of the Administrative Agent. Except as contemplated by this Section 4.6, neither the Term Facility Borrowers nor any Person claiming on behalf of the Term Facility Borrowers shall have any right to any of the cash in the cash collateral account. The Administrative Agent shall apply the cash held in the cash collateral account to the face amount of those Bankers’ Acceptances at maturity whereupon any cash remaining in the cash collateral account shall be released by the Administrative Agent to the Term Facility Borrowers. Any prepayment shall be paid to the Administrative Agent and distributed among the Credit Facility Lenders in accordance with their respective Rateable Portions. No amount permanently prepaid may be reborrowed under this Agreement. Each Credit Facility Lender’s Term Commitment will be permanently reduced by the amount of any permanent prepayment made to it and the Total Term Commitment reduced correspondingly. Any such voluntary permanent prepayment shall not be financed using the Revolving Facility.

4.7 Cancellation

     The Revolving Facility Borrowers may at any time cancel undrawn amounts of the Revolving Facility without premium or penalty, in minimum amounts of $500,000 and in multiples of Cdn$100,000, subject to giving the Administrative Agent three (3) Business Days prior written notice substantially in the form attached as Schedule 4.7. Amounts cancelled will not be reinstated and the Revolving Commitments and Total Revolving Commitment correspondingly reduced.

SECTION 5 — PAYMENTS AND TAXES

5.1 Payments Generally

     All amounts owing in respect of the Credit Facilities, whether on account of principal, interest or fees or otherwise, shall be paid in the currency in which the Advance is outstanding. Each payment under this Agreement shall be made for value on the day the payment is due, provided that if that day is not a Business Day, the payment shall be due on the Business Day next following the day, unless the Business Day next following the day is in the next following month, in which event the payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. All interest and other fees shall continue to accrue until payment has been received by the Administrative Agent. Each payment by a Borrower shall be made at such Borrower’s Administrative Agent’s Account for Payments at or before 1:00 p.m. on the day the payment is

-55-

due. Receipt by the Administrative Agent from a Borrower of funds under this Agreement, as principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be deemed to be receipt of those funds by the Credit Facility Lenders.

5.2 Taxes

(1) Payments. All payments to be made by or on behalf of a Borrower under or with respect to this Agreement are to be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any present or future Taxes, unless such deduction or withholding is required by Applicable Law. If a Borrower is required to deduct or withhold any Taxes from any amount payable on account of Credit Facility Obligations to the Administrative Agent or any Credit Facility Lender (a) the amount payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to, and taking into account all Taxes on, or arising by reason of the payment of, additional amounts under this Section 5.2), the Administrative Agent or the Credit Facility Lender, as the case may be, receives and retains an amount equal to the amount that it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been required, (b) such Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings, and (c) such Borrower shall remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority in accordance with Applicable Laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Borrower shall not be required to pay additional amounts in respect of Excluded Taxes.

(2) Indemnity. Each Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Credit Facility Lenders for the full amount of any Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable by the applicable Borrower on account of Credit Facility Obligations under this Agreement and paid by the Administrative Agent or any Credit Facility Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest and reasonable expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally asserted, and any Taxes levied or imposed with respect to any indemnity payment made under this Section 5.2. Each Borrower shall also indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Credit Facility Lenders for any Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) that may arise as a consequence of the execution, sale, transfer, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to this Agreement or any other Document. The indemnifications contained in this Section 5.2(2) shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date the Administrative Agent makes written demand therefor.

(3) Evidence of Payment. Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes by a Borrower, such Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment by such Borrower of any Taxes with respect to any amount payable to the Administrative Agent and the Credit Facility Lenders hereunder.

(4) Excluded Taxes. For the purpose of Section 3.10(2)(a) and this Section 5.2, “Excluded Taxes” means, in relation to the Administrative Agent or any Credit Facility Lender, (i) any Taxes of the Administrative Agent or any Credit Facility Lender which is a resident of Canada for the purposes of the ITA, and (ii) any Taxes of any other Credit Facility Lender imposed on the net income or capital of such Credit Facility Lender by any Governmental Authority as a result of such other Credit Facility Lender (a) carrying on a trade or business or having a permanent establishment in any jurisdiction or political subdivision thereof, (b) being organized

-56-

under the laws of such jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof, or (c) being or being deemed to be resident in such jurisdiction or political subdivision thereof.

(5) Survival. Each Borrower’s obligations under this Section 5.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all amounts payable under or with respect to this Agreement.

(6) Tax Credit. If a payment (“Gross-Up Payment”) made by a Borrower has been increased by an amount (“Gross-Up”) referred to in this Section 5.2 and one or more Credit Facility Lenders who has received the Gross-Up is able to apply for, or otherwise take advantage of, any tax credit, tax refund, deduction in computing income, or similar benefit by reason of any payment, withholding or deduction made by such Borrower in respect of the Gross-Up Payment (such credit, deduction or benefit hereinafter being referred to as a “Tax Credit”), then such Credit Facility Lender or Credit Facility Lenders will use reasonable commercial efforts to obtain the Tax Credit (whether by way of reducing taxes payable, receiving a tax refund or otherwise), and shall repay to the applicable Borrower such amount (not exceeding the Gross-Up), if any, as is reasonably determined by such Credit Facility Lender to be equal to the net after-tax value to such Credit Facility Lender of such part of the Tax Credit as is reasonably attributable to such payment, withholding or deduction having regard to all dealings giving rise to similar credits, refunds, deductions or benefits in relation to the same tax period and to the cost of obtaining the same. Nothing contained in this Section 5.2(6) shall interfere with the right of any Credit Facility Lender to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it deems fit and, in particular, no Credit Facility Lender shall be under any obligation to claim relief from its corporate profits or similar tax liability in respect of any deduction, withholding or payment in priority to any other reliefs, claims, credits, refunds or deductions available to it and no Credit Facility Lender shall be obligated to disclose to the Borrowers any information regarding its tax affairs, tax computation or otherwise.

5.3 No Set-Off

     All payments to be made by a Borrower under this Agreement shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and without any deduction of any kind.

5.4 Application of Payments Before Exercise of Rights

     Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, all payments made by or on behalf of a Borrower before the exercise of any rights arising under Section 11.2, or otherwise, shall be paid to the Administrative Agent and distributed among the Credit Facility Lenders in accordance with their respective Rateable Portions (or, as the case may be, to or among the Administrative Agent, the Credit Facility Lender or the Credit Facility Lenders to whom those payments are owing by such Borrower) in each instance, as applicable, in the following order:

	(a)		firstly, in payment of any amounts due and payable as and by way of agency fees owing to the Administrative Agent for its services provided hereunder;
	(b)		secondly, in payment of any amounts due and payable as and by way of recoverable expenses hereunder;

-57-

	(c)		thirdly, in payment of any interest, other fees, or default interest then due and payable on or in respect of the Advances;
	(d)		fourthly, in respect of payment by the Revolving Facility Borrowers, in the non-permanent repayment of any principal amounts of the Advances due under the Revolving Facility, and
	(e)		fifthly, in payment of any other amounts then due and payable by such Borrower hereunder or in connection herewith.

5.5 Application of Payments After Exercise of Rights Under Section 11.2

     All payments made by or on behalf of a Borrower after the exercise of any rights arising under Section 11.2 shall be paid to the Administrative Agent and distributed among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Rateable Portions (or, as the case may be, to or among the Administrative Agent, the Lender or the Lenders to whom those payments are owing by such Borrower) in each instance, as applicable, in the following order:

	(a)		firstly, in payment of agency fees and the reasonable costs and expenses of any realization against a Borrower or of its property and assets, including the out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent and the reasonable fees and out-of pocket expenses of counsel, consultants and other advisers employed in connection therewith and in payment of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the administration and enforcement of this Agreement or the other Documents, to the extent that those funds, costs and expenses shall not have been reimbursed to the Administrative Agent;
	(b)		secondly, in payment of any other unpaid fees payable hereunder by a Borrower;
	(c)		thirdly, in payment or prepayment of principal under the Term Facility (in respect of the Term Facility Borrowers) or the Revolving Facility (in respect of the Revolving Facility Borrowers) and any other Obligations (other than on account of interest) outstanding under this Agreement, any other Documents and any document or agreement under which Other Secured Obligations arise and then to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest thereunder; and
	(d)		fourthly, in payment of the balance, if any, to the applicable Borrower or such other person or persons who may be entitled at law or, in each case, their respective successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

	(a)		the ratios shall be determined as of the last day of each Fiscal Quarter on a rolling four quarter basis based on the Compliance Certificate delivered in respect of such Fiscal Quarter and the ratios so determined shall be deemed to apply throughout the subsequent Fiscal Quarter unless a disposition or Permitted Acquisition occurs during such Fiscal Quarter, in which case the ratios shall be adjusted as of the closing date of such disposition or Permitted Acquisition; provided, that if a Compliance Certificate shall be delivered late, not be in form and substance satisfactory to the Credit Facility Lenders or prove to be incorrect, the Credit Facility Lenders may adjust the calculation based on the information available to them;
	(b)		for all purposes if a Borrower or a Material Subsidiary shall make a disposition or Permitted Acquisition, other than a disposition to or acquisition from a Borrower or another Material Subsidiary, then (i) the EBITDA that the Borrowers in respect of the 12-month period following the closing date of such disposition or Permitted Acquisition shall thereupon be adjusted on a pro forma basis to include the EBITDA of the operation comprising the Permitted Acquisition or exclude the EBITDA of the operations disposed of (without deduction for any management fees) and to include annualized interest on any Debt assumed in connection with such Permitted Acquisition or exclude annualized interest on any Debt repaid or assumed by a third party in connection with such disposition, in each case, for the applicable portion of the 12-month period preceding such closing date and (ii) the Cash Interest Coverage Ratio in respect of the 12-month period following the closing of such disposition or Permitted Acquisition shall thereupon be adjusted on a pro forma basis to include or exclude annualized Cash Interest on Debt assumed in connection therewith or any Debt repaid or assumed by a third party in connection with such disposition, in each case, for the applicable portion of the 12-month period preceding such closing date provided that, where the operations disposed of were previously acquired using the proceeds of an Advance under the Revolving Facility, then for the purposes of this subclause (ii) the amount of the mandatory repayments that may be excluded shall be the amount of such Debt so repaid or assumed as shall exceed that portion of the aforesaid Advance under the Revolving Facility as is reasonably attributable to the operations disposed of. At the closing date of any Permitted Acquisition, the Borrowers will provide the Administrative Agent with EBITDA and Cash Interest projections for the next 12-month period to demonstrate compliance with clauses (1) and (2) above.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default pursuant to Sections 11.1(11) or 11.1(12), the Administrative Agent shall, and upon the occurrence of any other Event of Default and for so long as the other Event of Default shall continue, the Administrative Agent may, and shall upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders, without notice to the Borrowers, do either or both of the following:

	(a)		declare that the Total Commitment has expired and that the Credit Facility Lenders’ obligations to make Advances have terminated; and
	(b)		declare the entire principal amount of all Advances outstanding, all unpaid accrued interest and all fees and other amounts required to be paid by the

-83-

Borrowers or either of them hereunder to be immediately due and payable without the necessity of presentment for payment, notice of non-payment and of protest (all of which are hereby expressly waived) and proceed to exercise any and all rights and remedies hereunder and under any other Document or otherwise permitted by law.

From and after the issuance of any declaration referred to in this Section 11.2, no Credit Facility Lender shall be required to honour any cheque or other instrument presented to it by any Borrower regardless of the date of issue or presentation. Immediately upon receipt of a declaration under Section 11.2(b), each Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders all amounts outstanding hereunder owing by such Borrower, including the face amount of all Bankers’ Acceptances which have not matured, the maximum amount payable under all outstanding Letters of Credit and Letters of Guarantee, and the amount owing to that Lender in respect of any Hedge Contracts with any Credit Facility Lenders which are unmatured or unexpired, which amounts shall be held by the Administrative Agent in an interest bearing account as collateral security for the applicable Borrower’s obligations with respect to those Bankers’ Acceptances, Letters of Credit, Letters of Guarantee and Hedge Contracts, as applicable. If any Borrower does not pay any such amount so required to be paid, the applicable Lender shall have the option at any time without notice to the Borrowers to make an Advance of a Prime Loan to the applicable Borrower equal to that amount, such Advance to bear interest at the rates specified in this Agreement. The proceeds of such Advance shall be held by the Administrative Agent in the interest bearing account as collateral security for the applicable Borrower’s obligations under the Bankers’ Acceptances, Letters of Credit or Letters of Guarantee, as applicable. Each Borrower shall execute such security documents with respect to those Bankers’ Acceptances, Letters of Credit, Letters of Guarantee and Hedge Contracts and any amounts paid or held in respect thereof as the Administrative Agent shall require.

11.3 Hedge Contracts

     Upon demand under Section 11.2, notwithstanding the terms of any Hedge Contract, all Hedge Contracts may be terminated, at the sole option of each Lender a party thereto, and the cost to the applicable Lender of that termination, if any, shall be determined as of the date of the demand. In determining that cost, it shall be assumed that the applicable Borrower has defaulted under the Hedge Contracts, and the cost shall then be determined in accordance with the terms of the agreement governing the Hedge Contracts or, if there are no such terms, in accordance with the usual practices of the applicable Lender. For greater certainty, the, usual practices of each Lender shall be determined by reference to the provisions regarding payments on early termination in the (Multicurrency — Cross Border) ISDA Master Agreement (1992 version) as may be amended and agreed by the parties.

11.4 Waiver of Default

     No express or implied waiver by the Administrative Agent and the Credit Facility Lenders or any of them of any Default or Event of Default shall in any way be or be construed to be a waiver of any future or subsequent Default or Event of Default. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Borrower hereby waives any rights now or thereafter conferred by statute or otherwise which may limit or modify any of the Administrative Agent’s or the Credit Facility

-84-

Lenders’ rights or remedies under any Document. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the exercise by the Administrative Agent or any Credit Facility Lender of any rights or remedies under any Document without having declared an acceleration shall not in any way alter, affect or prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent and the Credit Facility Lenders to make a declaration pursuant to Section 11.2 at any time and, without limiting the foregoing, shall not be construed as or deemed to constitute a waiver of any rights under Section 11.2.

SECTION 12 — REMEDIES

12.1 Remedies Cumulative

     For greater certainty, the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Credit Facility Lenders under this Agreement and the other Documents are cumulative and are in addition to and not in substitution for any rights or remedies provided by law or by equity. Any single or partial exercise by the Administrative Agent or any Credit Facility Lender of any right or remedy upon the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default shall not be deemed to be a waiver of, or to alter, affect or prejudice any other right or remedy to which the Administrative Agent or the Credit Facility Lender may be lawfully entitled as a result of the Default or Event of Default, and any waiver by the Administrative Agent or any Credit Facility Lender of the strict observance of, performance of or compliance with any term, covenant, condition or agreement herein contained, and any indulgence granted thereby, either expressly or by conduct, shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which it is given and shall be deemed not to be a waiver of any subsequent Default or Event of Default.

12.2 Sharing of Information

     Each Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Credit Facility Lenders to share among each other any information possessed by any of them regarding that Borrower and its Material Subsidiaries.

12.3 Remedies Not Limited

     The Administrative Agent on behalf of itself and the Lenders may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, bring suit at law, in equity or otherwise, for any available relief or purpose including: (1) the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or in any other Document; (2) an injunction against a violation of any of the terms of this Agreement or any other Document; (3) in aid of the exercise of any power granted by this Agreement or any other Document or by law; or (4) the recovery of any judgment for any and all amounts due in respect of the Obligations.

12.4 Sharing of Proceeds Among the Lenders

     The Lenders agree among themselves that, except as otherwise contemplated by the provisions of this Agreement, all sums received by the Lenders for application against amounts owing by the Borrowers under this Agreement (whether received by voluntary payment, by the exercise of any right of set-off, or by counterclaim, cross-action or as proceeds of realization of

-85-

any security), after payment to the Administrative Agent of its fees and disbursements, shall be shared by each Lender as nearly as possible in accordance with each Lender’s Rateable Portion.

12.5 Set-Off, etc.

     Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, the Administrative Agent, each Credit Facility Lender and each of their respective branches and offices are hereby authorized by each Borrower, from time to time, without notice to: (1) set off and apply any and all amounts owing by the Administrative Agent or any Credit Facility Lender or any of its branches or offices to that Borrower (whether payable in Canadian Dollars or any other currency — and any amounts so owing in any other currency may be converted into Canadian Dollars at such rate or rates as the party may be able to obtain, acting reasonably — whether matured or unmatured, and in the case of deposits, whether general or special, time or demand and however evidenced) against and on account of the Obligations of such Borrower (whether or not any declaration under Section 11.2 has been made and whether or not those Obligations are unmatured or contingent); (2) hold any amounts owing by the Administrative Agent or any Credit Facility Lender as collateral to secure payment of the Obligations of such Borrower owing to it to the extent that those amounts may be required to satisfy any contingent or unmatured Obligations owing to it; and (3) return as unpaid for insufficient funds any and all cheques and other items drawn against any deposits so held as the Administrative Agent or any Credit Facility Lender in its sole discretion may elect.

12.6 Administrative Agent or Lender May Perform Covenants

     If any Borrower fails to perform any of its obligations under any covenant contained in this Agreement or any other Document, the Administrative Agent or any Credit Facility Lender may (but has no obligation to), after the occurrence of an Event of Default, which is continuing, perform any covenant capable of being performed by it and, if the covenant requires the payment or expenditure of money, it may make an Advance to fund that requirement, which Advance shall be repaid by applicable Borrower on demand. That Advance shall bear interest at a rate calculated and paid in accordance with Section 3.

12.7 Determination of Exposure

     Prior to any distribution of cash Proceeds of Realization to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall request each Lender to provide to the Administrative Agent a written calculation of such Lender’s Rateable Portion of the Obligations, each such calculation to be certified true and correct by the Lender providing same. Each Lender shall so provide such calculation within two (2) Business Days following the request of the Administrative Agent. Any such calculation provided by a particular Lender which is approved by the Administrative Agent shall, absent manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence of such Lender’s Rateable Portion of Obligations at such time. If the Administrative Agent does not approve any such calculation provided by a particular Lender, the Administrative Agent and such Lender shall, expeditiously and in good faith, make a determination of such Lender’s Rateable Portion of the Obligations which the Administrative Agent approves. With respect to each determination of the Rateable Portion of the Obligations of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the

-86-

Lenders. For the purposes of determining a particular Lender’s Rateable Portion of the Obligations:

	(a)		the Rateable Portion of the Obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and the Security Documents shall be the aggregate amount (expressed in Canadian Dollars) of the Commitments and the Other Secured Obligations of such Lender;
	(b)		the Rateable Portion of the Other Secured Obligations of a Lender under Hedge Contracts shall be the amount (expressed in Canadian Dollars) by which a Borrower would be “out of the money” (as such phrase is generally understood in the banking industry) on a net basis if all the Hedge Contracts between that Borrower and such Lender were “marked-to-market” (as such phrase is generally understood in the banking industry).

12.8 Decision to Enforce Security Documents

     Upon the Security Documents becoming enforceable in accordance with their terms, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify each of the Credit Facility Lenders. Any Credit Facility Lender may thereafter provide the Administrative Agent with a written request to enforce the Security Documents. Forthwith after the receipt of such a request, the Administrative Agent shall seek the instruction of the Majority Lenders as to whether the Security Documents should be enforced and the manner in which the Security Documents should be enforced. In seeking such instructions, the Administrative Agent shall submit a specific proposal to the Credit Facility Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Credit Facility Lenders of all instructions and approvals of the Majority Lenders. If the Majority Lenders instruct the Administrative Agent to enforce the Security Documents, each of the Lenders agree to accelerate the Obligations owed to it in accordance with and to the extent permitted under the Hedge Contracts with it.

12.9 Enforcement

     The Administrative Agent reserves the sole right to enforce, or otherwise deal with, the Security Documents and to deal with the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries in connection therewith; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall so enforce, or otherwise deal with, the Security Documents as the Majority Lenders shall instruct.

12.10 Application of Cash Proceeds of Realization

     All Proceeds of Realization not in the form of cash shall be forthwith delivered to the Administrative Agent and disposed of, or realized upon, by the Administrative Agent in such manner as the Majority Lenders may approve so as to produce cash Proceeds of Realization.

     Subject to the claims, if any, of security creditors of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries whose security ranks in priority to the Security Documents, all cash Proceeds of Realization shall be applied and distributed, and the claims of the Lenders shall be deemed to have the relative priorities which would result in the cash Proceeds of Realization being applied and distributed, as follows:

-87-

	(a)		firstly, to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any trustee of the Lenders appointed by the Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, all legal fees and disbursements) in the exercise of all or any of the powers granted to it hereunder or under the Security Documents and in payment of all of the remuneration of any receiver or similar agent and all reasonable costs and expenses properly incurred by such receiver (including, without limitation, all reasonable legal fees and disbursements) in the exercise of all or any powers granted to it under the Security Documents;
	(b)		secondly, in payment of all amounts of money borrowed or advanced by the Administrative Agent, any trustee of the Lenders appointed by the Administrative Agent or such receiver pursuant to the Security Documents and any interest thereon;
	(c)		thirdly, to the payment or prepayment of the Obligations (including holding as cash collateral to be applied against Obligations which have not then matured) to the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their Rateable Portion including, without limitation, any Lenders’ exposure under any Hedging Facilities; and
	(d)		the balance, if any, to the applicable Borrower or otherwise in accordance with Applicable Law.

SECTION 13 — THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS

13.1 Authorization of Administrative Agent

     Each Lender irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take all action as agent on its behalf and to exercise those powers and perform those duties under this Agreement and the other Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms thereof, together with all powers reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or the other Documents, the Administrative Agent is not required to exercise any discretion or to take any action, but is required to act or to refrain from acting (and is fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement and the other Documents, the Administrative Agent shall never be required to take any action which is contrary to this Agreement, the other Documents or Applicable Law. No Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 13.

13.2 Arrangements for Advances

(1) The Administrative Agent shall give notice to each Credit Facility Lender promptly in writing upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of any notice given under this Agreement which affects a Credit Facility Lender. The Administrative Agent shall advise each Credit Facility Lender of the amount, date and details of each Advance and of each Credit Facility

-88-

Lender’s participation in each Advance. At or before 1:00 p.m. on the Drawdown Date, each Credit Facility Lender will make its participation available to the Borrowers at the Administrative Agent’s Account for Payments and, for greater certainty, Bankers’ Acceptances shall be accepted by the Credit Facility Lenders at their respective Branches of Account.

(2) Without prejudice to the foregoing, each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent (and any successor acting as administrative agent) to act as the person holding the power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir) (in such capacity “Attorney”) of the Lenders as contemplated under Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec, and to enter into, to take and to hold on their behalf, and for their benefit, any hypothec, and to exercise such powers and duties which are conferred upon the Attorney under any hypothec. Moreover, without prejudice to such appointment and authorization to act as the person holding the power of attorney as aforesaid, each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent (and any successor acting as administrative agent) (in such capacity, the “Custodian”) to act as agent and custodian for and on behalf of the Lenders to hold and to be the sole registered holder of any bond which may be issued under any hypothec, the whole notwithstanding Section 32 of the Act respecting the special powers of legal persons (Quebec) or any other applicable law. In this respect: (i) the Custodian shall keep a record indicating the names and addresses of, and the pro rata portion of the obligations and indebtedness secured by any pledge of any such bond and owing to each Lender, and (ii) each Lender will be entitled to the benefits of any charged property covered by any hypothec and will participate in the proceeds of realization of any such charged property, the whole in accordance with the terms hereof.

(3) Each of the Attorney and the Custodian shall: (a) have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise, except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms hereof, all rights and remedies given to the Attorney and the Custodian (as applicable) pursuant to any hypothec, bond, pledge, applicable laws or otherwise, (b) benefit from and be subject to all provisions hereof with respect to the Administrative Agent mutatis mutandis, including, without limitation, all such provisions with respect to the liability or responsibility to and indemnification by the Lenders, and (c) be entitled to delegate from time to time any of its powers or duties under any hypothec, bond, or pledge on such terms and conditions as it may determine from time to time. Any person who becomes a Lender shall be deemed to have consented to and confirmed: (i) the Attorney as the person holding the power of attorney as aforesaid and to have ratified, as of the date it becomes a Lender, all actions taken by the Attorney in such capacity, and (ii) the Custodian as the agent and custodian as aforesaid and to have ratified, as of the date it becomes a Lender, all actions taken by the Custodian in such capacity.

13.3 Arrangements for Repayment of Advances

All payments made by or on behalf of a Borrower and received by the Administrative Agent, whether before or after the exercise of any rights arising under Section 11.2, shall be paid to each Lender in accordance with its entitlement under this Agreement. Payment by the Administrative Agent shall be made promptly following receipt and, in any event, the Administrative Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to pay to each Lender at the applicable Credit Facility Lender’s Branch of Account the applicable amount on the same Business Day as the amount is received by the Administrative Agent.

-89-

13.4 Lenders Bound by Decision to Exercise Remedies

     Each Lender agrees to be bound by a decision of the Majority Lenders to exercise the rights and remedies provided in this Agreement. Each Lender shall, subject to Applicable Law, do all acts and things as may be necessary or reasonable to enable the Administrative Agent to act pursuant to any decision.

13.5 Deemed Repayment and Funding

(1) Assumption re Payments. Unless the Administrative Agent has been notified in writing by a Borrower at least one (1) Business Day before the date on which any payment to be made by that Borrower under this Agreement is due that such Borrower does not intend to remit the payment, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, assume that such Borrower has remitted the payment when so due and the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and in reliance upon that assumption, make available to each Credit Facility Lender on the payment date an amount equal to its Rateable Portion of the assumed payment. If the applicable Borrower does not in fact remit that payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Credit Facility Lender and each Credit Facility Lender shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount of the assumed payment made available to the Credit Facility Lender, together with interest thereon until the date of repayment thereof at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent (the determination to be conclusive and binding on the Credit Facility Lender) in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s usual banking practice for similar advances to financial institutions of like standing to that Credit Facility Lender, and, in any event, at a rate no greater than the usual interbank offered rate for the sale of deposits in the applicable currency.

(2) Assumption re Advances. Unless the Administrative Agent has been notified in writing by a Credit Facility Lender at least one (1) Business Day before a Drawdown Date that the Credit Facility Lender does not intend to make available its Rateable Portion of an Advance to be made available on the Drawdown Date, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, assume that the Credit Facility Lender has remitted to the Administrative Agent funds in an amount equal to its Rateable Portion of the Advance and the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and in reliance upon that assumption, make available to a Borrower on the Drawdown Date an amount equal to the Credit Facility Lender’s Rateable Portion of that Advance. If the Credit Facility Lender does not in fact remit such funds to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify that Credit Facility Lender, and that Credit Facility Lender, or failing that Credit Facility Lender, the applicable Borrower, shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount made available by the Administrative Agent on behalf of that Credit Facility Lender, together with interest thereon until the date of repayment thereof at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent (the determination to be conclusive and binding on that Credit Facility Lender) in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s usual banking practice for similar advances to financial institutions of like standing to that Credit Facility Lender, but, in any event, at a rate no greater than the usual interbank offered rate for the sale of deposits in the applicable currency.

-90-

13.6 Responsibility of Administrative Agent

     The Administrative Agent makes no representation or warranty, and accepts no responsibility, with respect to the due execution, legality, validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any Document or any other instrument or document referred to herein or relative hereto. The Administrative Agent assumes no responsibility for the financial condition of any Borrower or for the repayment of any of the Advances. The Administrative Agent assumes no responsibility with respect to the accuracy, authenticity, legality, validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any documents, papers, materials or other information furnished by any Borrower or any other Person to the Administrative Agent or to any Lender in connection with any of the Documents or any matter referred to therein. Except for its gross negligence or wilful misconduct, the Administrative Agent shall incur no liability to the Lenders under or in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Documents with respect to anything which it may do or refrain from doing in the reasonable exercise of its judgment or which may seem to it to be necessary or desirable in the circumstances. The Administrative Agent assumes no responsibility for the repayment of any of the Advances or other amounts outstanding under this Agreement or any of the other Documents by any Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to the Lenders to investigate whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred. The Administrative Agent shall, as regards the Lenders, be entitled to assume that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing unless the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge or has been notified by any Borrower or a Material Subsidiary of such fact or has been notified by a Credit Facility Lender that such Credit Facility Lender considers that a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such notification to specify in detail the nature thereof.

13.7 Acknowledgement of Lenders

(1) Independent Appraisal of Borrowers. Each Lender acknowledges to the Administrative Agent that it has been, and will continue to be, solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal of and investigation into the financial condition, creditworthiness, affairs, status and nature of the Borrowers and, accordingly, each Lender confirms to the Administrative Agent that it has not relied, and will not hereafter rely on the Administrative Agent:

	(a)		to check or enquire on its behalf into the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of any information provided by the Borrowers or in connection with any of the Documents (whether or not the information has been or is hereafter circulated to the Lender by the Administrative Agent);
	(b)		to enquire as to the performance by the Borrowers of its obligations under any of the Documents; or
	(c)		to assess or keep under review on its behalf the financial condition, creditworthiness, affairs, status or nature of the Borrowers.

(2) No Fiduciary Obligations. Each Lender acknowledges to the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent is not a fiduciary in respect of the Lender, and owes no fiduciary duties or obligations to the Lender under or by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise.

-91-

13.8 Successor Administrative Agent

     The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to each of the Credit Facility Lenders and the Borrowers. Upon any resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor agent, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, with the written approval of the Borrowers (that approval not to be unreasonably withheld). If no successor agent has been appointed by the Majority Lenders and accepted that appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing with the written approval of the Borrowers (that approval not to be unreasonably withheld), appoint a successor agent. If no successor agent has been appointed pursuant to the foregoing within the thirty (30) days following the giving of notice of resignation by the retiring agent, the resignation shall nonetheless then become effective and the Majority Lenders shall perform the duties of agent hereunder until they appoint a successor agent. Any successor agent appointed under this Section 13.8 shall be a Credit Facility Lender which has an office in Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as agent by a successor agent, the successor agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring agent. Whether or not a successor agent has been appointed, the retiring agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement upon its resignation becoming effective and shall have no further rights in its capacity as Administrative Agent under this Agreement other than indemnity rights which are to survive the termination of this Agreement. After any Person’s resignation under this Agreement as the agent, the provisions of this Agreement shall continue in effect for its benefit and for the benefit of the Lenders in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Person while it was acting as the agent.

13.9 Notices between the Lenders and the Administrative Agent

     All notices by a Lender to the Administrative Agent shall be through the Administrative Agent’s Branch of Account and all notices by the Administrative Agent to the Lender shall be through the Credit Facility Lender’s Branch of Account.

13.10 Relations with the Borrowers

     Each Lender may deal with the Borrowers in any transaction not associated with this Agreement and generally conduct any other banking business with or provide any other financial services to the Borrowers without having any liability to account to the other Lenders therefor. With respect to its Commitment as a Credit Facility Lender and its Rateable Portion of Advances, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Credit Facility Lender and may exercise them as though it were not the Administrative Agent. All communication between the Borrowers and any Credit Facility Lender in connection with this Agreement and the other Documents shall be directed through the Administrative Agent.

-92-

13.11 Reliance by Administrative Agent

     The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any writing, letter, notice, certificate, telex, telecopy, cable, statement, order or other document believed by the Administrative Agent to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons. With respect to legal matters, the Administrative Agent may (but is not obligated to) act upon advice of legal advisers selected by the Administrative Agent, including in-house counsel of the Administrative Agent, concerning all matters pertaining to this Agreement and the other Documents and the Administrative Agent’s duties under this Agreement and the other Documents, and the Administrative Agent shall assume no responsibility and shall incur no liability to the Borrowers or any Lender by reason of relying on any such document or acting on any such advice.

13.12 Reimbursement of Administrative Agent’s Expenses and Indemnity

     Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers) in accordance with its Rateable Portion from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any nature or kind whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in that capacity in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Document or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Document except for those resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for that Lender’s Rateable Portion of out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the determination or preservation of any rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under, or the enforcement of, or legal advice in respect of rights, remedies or responsibilities under, this Agreement or the other Documents, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for those expenses by the Borrowers. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 13.12 shall survive the repayment of all Advances and the termination of the Credit Facility.

13.13 Action by Administrative Agent

     The Administrative Agent shall have the right, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, and without restricting the generality of this Agreement, to take such actions as the Administrative Agent deems necessary or refrain from taking those actions, or to give agreements, consents, waivers, approvals, or instructions to the Borrowers on behalf of the Lenders in respect of all matters referred to in or contemplated by this Agreement.

13.14 Borrowers’ Right to Rely on Administrative Agent

(2) All certificates, statements, notices and other documents which are delivered by a Borrower to the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement shall be deemed to have been delivered to each of the Credit Facility Lenders; and

(3) All payments which are delivered by a Borrower to the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement shall be deemed to have been duly delivered to each of the applicable Credit Facility Lenders.

13.15 Amendments, Waivers, etc.

(1) Binding Waiver. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 13.15, no amendment, waiver, discharge or termination of any provision of this Agreement or any other Document and no waiver of any breach of any provision of this Agreement or any other Document:

	(a)		shall be binding upon the Borrowers unless it is evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by the Borrowers; nor
	(b)		be binding upon the Administrative Agent and the Lenders unless it is approved in writing by the Administrative Agent and all the Credit Facility Lenders or the Majority Lenders, as applicable.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any waiver, discharge or termination may be validly effected by execution by the Administrative Agent on behalf of itself and all the Lenders or the Majority Lenders, as applicable, of an instrument in writing without requiring the execution of that instrument by the Borrowers, so long as the waiver, discharge or termination does not adversely affect the rights or obligations of the Borrowers. The Administrative Agent shall forward a copy of the written instrument to the Borrowers as soon as practicable following the execution thereof.

(2) Errors. The Administrative Agent may correct any typographical error or other error of a clerical nature in this Agreement and the other Documents and substitute the corrected text in the counterparts of this Agreement and the other Documents if the corrections do not modify in any manner the meaning or the interpretation of this Agreement or any other Document and if the Administrative Agent gives the Borrowers not less than five (5) Business Days prior notice of any correction and the Borrowers do not object in writing to such correction within a period of five (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice.

(3) Approval of All Lenders. Where any amendment, waiver, discharge, termination, determination, consent, approval or other action by the Lenders relates to the following matters, the amendment, waiver, discharge, termination, determination, consent, approval or other action requires the approval of all Credit Facility Lenders:

(a) decrease the rate or amount of any principal, interest or fees or any other amount payable by any Borrower or any alteration in the currency or mode of calculation or computation thereof;

-94-

	(b)		any extension or reduction of the time for any payments required to be made by any Borrower,
	(c)		any extension of the Maturity Date;
	(d)		the types of Advances available;
	(e)		an increase in the Total Commitment or in any Credit Facility Lender’s Commitment;

	(k)		any provision of this Section 13.15, or of Sections 2.3, 7.1, 7.2, 12.4 and 12.5.

Any other such amendment, waiver, discharge, termination, determination, consent, approval or other action requires the approval of only the Majority Lenders, which approval, if obtained, shall be binding upon all the Lenders. Any reference in this Agreement to any action of the Lenders shall mean such action by the Majority Lenders unless such action relates to a matter in items (a) to (k) above, in which case it shall mean such action by all of the Credit Facility Lenders.

(4) Request for Approval. If the approval of a Credit Facility Lender is required under this Section 13.15, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Credit Facility Lender in writing of the issue to be decided and, if the Administrative Agent feels it is appropriate to do so, request the Credit Facility Lender’s approval of a course of action proposed by the Administrative Agent. In requesting a Credit Facility Lender’s approval, the Administrative Agent may establish, in its discretion acting reasonably, a deadline by which the Credit Facility Lender shall respond to the Administrative Agent’s request. If the Credit Facility Lender fails to respond by that deadline, that Credit Facility Lender’s failure to respond shall be conclusive evidence of the decline by such Credit Facility Lender of the course of action proposed by the Administrative Agent.

(5) Amendment re Rights of Administrative Agent. Any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Document which relates to the rights or obligations of the Administrative Agent shall require the written agreement of the Administrative Agent thereto.

-95-

13.16 Administrative Agent’s Duty to Deliver Documents

     The Agent shall promptly deliver to each of the Credit Facility Lenders, at their respective Branches of Account, all documents, papers, materials and other information as are furnished by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Credit Facility Lenders under this Agreement, but shall have no other obligation to provide any Lender with any credit or other information whatsoever with respect to the Borrowers and shall be under no obligation to inquire as to the performance by any Borrower of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Document.

13.17 No Partnership

     Nothing contained in this Agreement and no action taken pursuant to it shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders a partnership, association, joint venture or other similar entity.

13.18 Adjustments Among Lenders

(1) Adjustment After Exercise of Rights.

(2) General Application. For greater certainty, the Credit Facility Lenders acknowledge and agree that, without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 13.18(1), those provisions will have application if and whenever any Credit Facility Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off or otherwise) on account of any money owing or payable by any Borrower to it in excess of its Rateable Portion thereof determined as at the date of this Agreement prior to the making of any Advance.

(3) Borrowers’ Agreement. Each Borrower agrees to be bound by and to do all things necessary or appropriate to give effect to any and all purchases and other adjustments made by and between the Credit Facility Lenders under this Section 13.18 but shall incur no increased liabilities by reason thereof.

13.19 Indemnity of Administrative Agent

     The Administrative Agent may refrain from exercising any right, power or discretion or taking any action to protect or enforce the rights of any Lender under this Agreement and the Documents until it has been indemnified or secured to its satisfaction against any and all costs, losses, expenses or liabilities (including legal fees) which it would or might sustain or incur as a result of the action or exercise.

-96-

13.20 Administrative Agent May Debit Accounts

     Each Borrower authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent, in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, to debit automatically, by mechanical, electronic or manual means, any bank account of that Borrower maintained with The Bank of Nova Scotia (for so long as The Bank of Nova Scotia is Administrative Agent) for all amounts payable by such Borrower under this Agreement or any other Document, including the repayment of principal and the payment of interest, fees and all charges for the keeping of that bank account. The Administrative Agent shall notify each Borrower as to the particulars of those debits in the normal course.

13.21 Consultation with Counsel

     The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel selected by it as counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken or suffered by it in good faith and in accordance with the advice and opinion of such counsel.

13.22 Administrative Agent as Lender

     With respect to those portions of the Credit Facilities made available by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under the Documents as any other Credit Facility Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower and its Affiliates and Persons doing business with any Borrower and/or any of its Affiliates as if it were not the Administrative Agent and without any obligation to account to the Lenders therefor.

13.23 Delegation by Administrative Agent

(2) Borrower. No Borrower may assign, delegate or transfer all or any part of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Credit Facility Lenders.

-97-

(3) Assignment and Participation.

	(a)		Any Credit Facility Lender (herein sometimes called a “Granting Lender”) may, without the prior consent of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, grant a participation in the Revolving Facility to one or more financial institutions that are not non-residents of Canada for the purpose of the ITA (the “Participant”). If a participation is granted, (i) the Granting Lender shall remain fully liable for all of its obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement to the same extent as if the participation had not been granted, and (ii) the Granting Lender shall administer the participation of the Participant. None of the Participant, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall have any rights against or obligations to one another, nor shall any of them be required to deal directly with one another in respect of the participation by a Participant. For greater certainty, Participants, as such, shall have no voting rights as “Credit Facility Lenders” under this Agreement.
	(b)		Any Credit Facility Lender (herein sometimes called an “Assigning Lender”) may, prior to an Event of Default, with the consent of the Borrowers, not to be unreasonably withheld, and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, without the prior consent of the Borrowers, but in all cases with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, (for greater certainty, it is hereby acknowledged that if the Administrative Agent has concerns about the ability of the Assignee to fund its Obligations under this Agreement it would be reasonable not to consent to such assignment), assign all or any part of its rights to, and may have its obligations in respect of the Revolving Facility and the Term Facility assumed by, one or more financial institutions that are residents of Canada for the purposes of the ITA (each an “Assignee”), provided that, when assigning all or part of its Commitment, the Assigning Lender must assign an equal portion of its Revolving Commitment and Term Commitment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Credit Facility Lender shall assign any portion of its Commitment if, after that assignment, (i) the Assigning Lender’s Commitment would be less than Cdn$10,000,000, or (ii) the Assignee’s Commitment would be less than Cdn$10,000,000, except that, with respect to those Lenders whose Commitment as of the date hereof is less than Cdn$10,000,000, the dollar amount of the foregoing assignment restriction shall be deemed to be equal to the amount of each such Lender’s Commitment as of the date hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent shall be required in respect of any assignment by an Assigning Lender to (i) its Affiliate which, in the case of any transfer prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, is a financial institution that is not a non-resident in Canada for the purpose of the ITA or (ii) another Credit Facility Lender. An assignment shall become effective when the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent have been notified of it by the Assigning Lender and have received from the Assignee an undertaking (addressed to all the parties to this Agreement) to be bound by this Agreement and to perform the obligations assigned to it, in substantially the form of Schedule 14.1(3)(b) and the Administrative Agent has received from the Assignee an assignment fee of a

-98-

minimum of $2,500 per Credit Facility Lender per assignment. Any Assignee shall be treated as a Credit Facility Lender for all purposes of this Agreement, shall be entitled to the full benefit hereof and shall be subject to the obligations of the Assigning Lender to the same extent as if it were an original party in respect of the rights or obligations assigned to it, and the Assigning Lender shall be released and discharged accordingly and to the same extent, and such Schedules as applicable shall be amended accordingly from time to time without further notice or other requirement.

(4) Limitation. Except following the occurrence of an Event of Default and so long as such Event of Default is continuing, no Credit Facility Lender shall be entitled to grant a participation under Section 14.1(3)(a), make an assignment under Section 14.1(3)(b) or change its Branch of Account if this would, immediately following the assignment, participation or change of Branch of Account, increase the cost of the Credit Facilities either of the Borrowers, except that nothing in this Section 14.1(4) shall prohibit the granting of an assignment by a Schedule I Lender to a Schedule II/III Lender notwithstanding that the Discount Rate applicable to Bankers’ Acceptances issued by the Schedule II/III Lender may be higher than the Discount Rate applicable to Bankers’ Acceptances issued by the Schedule I Lender; provided that the Discount Rate applicable to Bankers’ Acceptances issued by any such Schedule II/III Lender shall not exceed the Discount Rate set out in subsection (b) of the definition of Discount Rate.

(5) Borrowers’ Cooperation. Each Borrower will execute such further documents and instruments and do such further things as the Administrative Agent or Credit Facility Lenders may reasonably request for the purpose of any participation or assignment.

(6) Disclosure. Subject to Section 15.10, each Credit Facility Lender may disclose to any prospective Assignee or Participant, on a confidential basis, such information concerning the Borrowers or either of them as it considers appropriate without incurring any liability for any breach of the duty of banker-customer confidentiality provided such prospective Assignee or Participant has agreed to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms hereof.

14.2 Assignment After Default

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, where a Default has occurred and is continuing, nothing in this Agreement shall limit or otherwise restrict the right of a Lender to assign all or any part of its rights and obligations under or with respect to this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any such assignment shall not require the consent of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent nor be restricted to third parties resident in Canada.

SECTION 15 — MISCELLANEOUS

15.1 Amendments

     No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by a party from any provision of this Agreement will be effective unless it is in writing, and then

-99-

the amendment, waiver or consent will be effective only in the specific instance, for the specific purpose and for the specific length of time for which it is given.

15.2 Notice

         Unless otherwise specified, any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given to a party under this Agreement shall be in writing and may be delivered personally or sent by prepaid registered mail or by facsimile, to the address or facsimile number of the party set out beside its name at the foot of this Agreement to the attention of the Person there indicated or to such other address, facsimile number or other Person’s attention as the party may have specified by notice in writing given under this Section. Any notice or other communication shall be deemed to have been given (1) if delivered personally, when received; (2) if mailed, subject to Section 15.3, on the fifth Business Day following the date of mailing; (3) if sent by facsimile, on the Business Day when the appropriate confirmation of receipt has been received if the confirmation of receipt has been received before 3:00 p.m. on that Business Day or, if the confirmation of receipt has been received after 3:00 p.m. on that Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day; and (4) if sent by facsimile on a day which is not a Business Day, on the, next succeeding Business Day on which confirmation of receipt has been received.

15.3 Disruption of Postal Service

         If a notice has been sent by prepaid registered mail and before the fifth Business Day after the mailing there is a discontinuance or interruption of regular postal service so that the notice cannot reasonably be expected to be delivered within five (5) Business Days after the mailing, the notice will be deemed to have been given when it is actually received.

15.4 Further Assurances

         Each Borrower shall from time to time promptly, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, take such action, and execute and deliver such further documents as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to give effect to the provisions and intent of this Agreement.

15.5 Judgment Currency

         If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert any amount owing or payable to the Administrative Agent or the Credit Facility Lenders under this Agreement from the currency in which it is due (the “Agreed Currency”) into a particular currency (the “Judgment Currency”), the rate of exchange applied in that conversion shall be that at which the Administrative Agent, in accordance with its normal procedures, could purchase the Agreed Currency with the Judgment Currency at or about noon on the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which judgment is given. The obligation of a Borrower in respect of any amount owing or payable under this Agreement to the Administrative Agent or Credit Facility Lenders in the Agreed Currency shall, notwithstanding any judgment and payment in the Judgment Currency, be satisfied only to the extent that the Administrative Agent, in accordance with its normal procedures, could purchase the Agreed Currency with the amount of the Judgment Currency so paid at or about noon on the next Business Day following that payment; and if the amount of the Agreed Currency which the Administrative Agent could so

-100-

purchase is less than the amount originally due in the Agreed Currency, that Borrower shall, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding the judgment or payment, indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Credit Facility Lenders against any loss.

15.6 Waivers

     No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege shall preclude the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

15.7 Reimbursement of Expenses

     Each Borrower agrees to: (1) pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent, on demand, for all of its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the other Documents including any subsequent amendments of this Agreement or any other Document, and the consummation and the administration of the transactions contemplated hereby including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent; and (2) pay or reimburse, on demand, the Administrative Agent for all its reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the determination, preservation and enforcement of any responsibilities, rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Documents, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of its counsel. The obligations of each Borrower under this Section 15.7 shall survive the repayment of all Advances and the termination of the Credit Facilities.

15.8 Submission to Jurisdiction

     Each of the parties irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Ontario.

15.9 Counterparts

     This Agreement may be executed and delivered in any number of counterparts, each of which when executed and delivered is an original but all of which taken together constitute one and the same instrument.

15.10 Confidentiality

     The Administrative Agent and the Credit Facility Lenders shall hold all non-public information obtained pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or obtained by them based on a review of the books and records of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries in accordance with their customary procedures for handling confidential information of this nature, but may make disclosure to any of their examiners, regulators (including the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions), Affiliates, outside auditors, counsel and other professional advisors in connection with this Agreement or as reasonably required by any potential bona fide Participant or Assignee, or in connection with the exercise of remedies under a Document, or as requested by any Governmental Authority or pursuant to legal process; provided, however, that:

-101-

(1) unless specifically prohibited by Applicable Law or court order, the Administrative Agent and each Credit Facility Lender shall promptly notify the Borrowers of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with an examination of the financial condition of the Administrative Agent or Credit Facility Lender by such Governmental Authority) for disclosure of any such non-public information and, where practicable, prior to disclosure of such information;

(2) prior to any such disclosure pursuant to this Section 15.10, the Administrative Agent or Credit Facility Lender, as the case may be, shall require any bona fide Participant and Assignee receiving a disclosure of non-public information to agree in writing

	(a)		to be bound by this Section 15.10; and
	(b)		to require such Person to require any other Person to whom such Person discloses such non-public information to be similarly bound by this Section 15.10.

(3) disclosure may, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, be made by any Credit Facility Lender to any direct or indirect contractual counter parties of such Credit Facility Lender in swap agreements or such contractual counter parties’ professional advisors; provided that such contractual counter party or professional advisor agrees in writing to keep such information confidential to the same extent required of the Credit Facility Lenders hereunder; and

(4) except as may be required by an order of a court of competent jurisdiction and to the extent set forth therein, no Credit Facility Lender shall be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries.

15.11 Acknowledgement re Liability of Fund

(1) The parties acknowledge and agree that the obligations of the Fund hereunder and under the other Documents are not personally binding upon the Board of Trustees or any trustee thereof, any unitholder of the Fund or any annuitant under a plan of which a unitholder of the Fund acts as trustee or carrier, and resort shall not be had to, nor shall recourse or satisfaction be sought from, any of the foregoing or any of the private property of any of the foregoing, but the property of the Fund only shall be bound by such obligations. Any obligation of the Fund set out in this Agreement or in any other Document shall to the extent necessary to give effect to such obligation be deemed to constitute, subject to the provisions of the previous sentence, an obligation of the Board of Trustees and each trustee thereof in their capacity as trustees of the Fund only.

(2) For greater certainty, the Fund acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the right to have any claim against the Fund in respect of the Obligations of the Fund satisfied out of the property of the Fund regardless of whether the Board of Trustees or any trustee thereof is entitled to be indemnified for such claim out of such property.

-102-

15.12 No Novation

     The parties agree that any Advance under this Agreement shall not discharge, constitute a repayment and readvance or a novation of, any of the indebtedness, liabilities or obligations under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, and the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, as amended and restated by this Agreement, remains in full force and effect without novation.

RECITALS

A. Reference is made to the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement made as of September 28, 2007 between 4411986 Canada Inc. (“Bidco”), Osprey Media LP (“Osprey LP”) and Osprey Media Income Fund (the “Fund”), as borrowers (the “Existing Borrowers”), the Credit Facility Lenders, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, as Syndication Agent, Bank of Montreal, as Documentation Agent, and the Administrative Agent (as amended, supplemented, restated, replaced or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”).

B. The Existing Borrowers have completed the Reorganization and propose to effect further complementary steps to the Reorganization (the “Post-Closing Reorganization”) to simplify their corporate structure by: (i) terminating the Fund as a borrower under the Credit Agreement; (ii) nominating Osprey Media Publishing Inc. (“Newco”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Osprey LP, as a borrower under the Credit Agreement; (iii) transferring the assets and liabilities of Osprey LP to Newco (the “First Transfer”); (iv) at a later date to be determined by Bidco, transferring the shares of Newco held by Osprey LP to Bidco (the “Second Transfer”); and (v) terminating Osprey LP as a borrower under the Credit Agreement upon completion of the Second Transfer.

C. Bidco has advised the Administrative Agent and Lenders that (i) it intends to treat Osprey LP (subject to completion of the Second Transfer) as a non-Material Subsidiary and to wind-up Osprey LP after completion of the Second Transfer, and (ii) the Fund was wound-up and terminated effective as of December 28, 2007.

D. The Borrowers have requested, and the Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders have agreed, (1) to amend the Credit Agreement to, among other things, (i) terminate the Fund as a borrower and (ii) add Newco as a borrower; and (2) to approve the termination of Osprey LP as a borrower (subject to completion of the Second Transfer), subject to the terms and conditions of this First Amendment.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the parties agree as follows:

SECTION 1 — INTERPRETATION

1.1 Definitions

The Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders have also consented to the subsequent termination of Osprey LP as a borrower under the Credit Facilities (subject to completion of the Second Transfer), and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized and directed to execute, for and on behalf of the Majority Lenders, such further amendments to the Credit Agreement as necessary solely to document the termination of Osprey LP as a borrower under the Credit Agreement upon completion of the Second Transfer.

(2) This First Amendment has been approved by the Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders pursuant to Section 13.15 of the Credit Agreement, and the execution of this First Amendment by the Administrative Agent and the Majority Lenders shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

(2) Bidco acknowledges, agrees and confirms that (i) it intends to treat Osprey LP (subject to completion of the Second Transfer) as a non-Material Subsidiary in accordance with the exception criteria set out in the definition of Material Subsidiary and to wind-up Osprey LP after completion of the Second Transfer, and (ii) the Fund was wound-up and terminated effective as of December 28, 2007.

4.2 Confirmation of Security Documents

(1) Each of Bidco and Osprey LP hereby acknowledges, agrees and confirms that the Security Documents to which it is a party (i) are not released, discharged or otherwise affected by the execution, delivery or performance of this First Amendment or the consummation of the Post-Closing Reorganization; (ii) remain in full force and effect, enforceable against it in accordance with their terms; and (iii) continue to secure all Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Documents, and hereby waives any circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defence of any such Obligations.
