(c)Representations and Warranties.  The representations and warranties set forth herein must be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of effectiveness of this Amendment (it being understood and agreed that any representation or warranty which by its terms is made as of a specified date shall be required to be true and correct in all material respects only as of such specified date, and that any representation or warranty which is subject to any materiality qualifier shall be required to be true and correct in all respects).
(d)No Default.  No event has occurred and is continuing on the date of the effectiveness of this Amendment that constitutes an Event of Default.
3.Representations and Warranties.  Each Obligor represents and warrants as follows, as of the effective date of this Amendment:
(e)Authority.  Each Obligor has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Amendment, and to perform its obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents (as amended or modified hereby) to which it is a party.  The execution, delivery and performance by each Obligor of this Amendment have been duly approved by all necessary corporate, limited liability company or other equivalent action and no other corporate, limited liability company or other equivalent proceedings are necessary on the part of the Obligors to consummate such transactions.
(f)Due Execution; Enforceability.  This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by each Obligor that is a party hereto.  This Amendment and each Loan Document to which any Obligor is a party (as amended or modified hereby) is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Obligor, enforceable against such Obligor in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability.
(g)Representations and Warranties.  The representations and warranties contained in each Loan Document to which any Obligor is a party are correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof as though made on and as of the date hereof (it being understood and agreed that any representation or warranty which by its terms is made as of a specified date shall be required to be true and correct in all material respects only as of such specified date, and that any representation or warranty which is subject to any materiality qualifier shall be required to be true and correct in all respects).

(i)No Default.  No event has occurred and is continuing that constitutes an Event of Default.
4.Choice of Law.  The validity of this Amendment, its construction, interpretation and enforcement, and the rights of the parties hereunder, shall be determined under, governed by, and construed in accordance with the internal law of the State of New York, without giving effect to any conflict of law principles (but giving effect to Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligation Law and Federal laws relating to national banks).  The consent to forum and judicial reference provisions set forth in Section 14.15 of the Loan Agreement are hereby incorporated in this Amendment by reference.
5.Counterparts.  This Amendment may be in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures (including, without limitation, facsimile and .pdf) and shall be considered an original, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record.  








This Amendment may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic counterparts, but all such counterparts are one and the same Amendment.  For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by Agent and Secured Parties of a manually signed paper Amendment which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed Communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Amendment and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Laws, including the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.  For purposes hereof, “Electronic Record” and “Electronic Signature” shall have the meanings assigned to them, respectively, by 15 USC §7006, as it may be amended from time to time; provided that nothing herein shall require the Agent to accept electronic signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent.
6.Reference to and Effect on the Loan Documents.
(j)Upon and after the effectiveness of this Amendment, each reference in the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document to this “Agreement”, “hereunder”, “herein”, “hereof”, “thereunder”, “therein”, “thereof”, or words of like import referring to the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document shall mean and refer to such agreement as amended, modified or supplemented by this Amendment.
(k)Except as specifically amended above, the Loan Agreement and all other Loan Documents are and shall continue to be in full force and effect and are hereby in all respects ratified and confirmed and shall constitute the legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of Obligors to Agent and the Lenders in accordance with their terms.
(l)The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of Agent or any Lender under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of any of the Loan Documents.
(m)To the extent that any terms and conditions in any of the Loan Documents shall contradict or be in conflict with any terms or conditions of the Loan Agreement, after giving effect to this Amendment, such terms and conditions are hereby deemed modified or amended accordingly to reflect the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement as modified or amended hereby.
7.Ratification.  Each Obligor hereby restates, ratifies and reaffirms each and every term and condition set forth in the Loan Agreement, as amended hereby, and the Loan Documents effective as of the date hereof.  Subject to and without limiting the foregoing, all security interests, pledges, assignments and other Liens and Guarantees previously granted by any Obligor pursuant to the Loan Documents are hereby reaffirmed, ratified, renewed and continued, and all such security interests, pledges, assignments and other Liens and Guarantees shall remain in full force and effect as security for the Obligations on and after the date hereof.
8.Estoppel.  To induce Lenders to enter into this Amendment and to continue to make advances to Borrowers under the Loan Agreement, each Obligor hereby acknowledges and agrees that, as of the date hereof, there exists no right of offset, defense, counterclaim or objection in favor of any Obligor as against Agent or any Lender with respect to the Obligations.
9.Effectiveness; Binding Effect.  For the avoidance of doubt, upon the effectiveness of this Amendment in accordance with its terms, this Amendment shall be binding upon each Lender and its respective successors and assigns.








10.Integration.  This Amendment, together with the other Loan Documents, incorporates all negotiations of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and is the final expression and agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.
11.Severability.  In case any provision in this Amendment shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be severable from the remainder of this Amendment and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Wage Earner Protection Act Reserve:  on any date of determination, a reserve established from time to time by Agent in its Credit Judgment in such amount as Agent determines reflects the amounts that may become due under the Wage Earner Protection Program Act (Canada) with respect to the employees of any Obligor employed in Canada which would give rise to a Lien with priority under Applicable Law over the Lien of Agent.
Write-Down and Conversion Powers: means (i) with respect to any EEA Resolution Authority, the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable EEA Resolution Authority from time to time under the Bail-In Legislation for the applicable EEA Member Country, which powers are described in the EU Bail-In Legislation Schedule and (ii) with respect to the United Kingdom, any powers of the applicable Resolution Authority under the Bail-In Legislation to cancel, reduce, modify or change the form of a liability of any U.K. Financial Institution or any contract or instrument under which that liability arises, to convert all or part of that liability into shares, securities or obligations of that person or any other person, to provide that any such contract or instrument is to have effect as if a right had been exercised under it or to suspend any obligation in respect of that liability or any of the powers under that Bail-In Legislation that are related to or ancillary to any of those powers.
1.Accounting Terms.  Under the Loan Documents (except as otherwise specified herein), all accounting terms shall be interpreted, all accounting determinations shall be made, and all financial statements shall be prepared, in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with the most recent audited financial statements of Obligors delivered to Agent before the Original Agreement Closing Date and using the same inventory valuation method as used in such financial statements, except for any change required or permitted by GAAP if Obligors’ certified public accountants concur in such change, the change is disclosed to Agent, and Section 10.3 and any other provision hereof are amended in a manner satisfactory to Required Lenders to take into account the effects of the change, if any.  No calculations under the Loan Documents shall give effect to any such change prior to any such amendment.
2.Uniform Commercial Code/PPSA.  As used herein, the following terms are defined in accordance with the UCC in effect in the State of New York from time to time:  “Chattel Paper,” “Commercial Tort Claim,” “Equipment,” “Goods,” “Instrument,” “Investment Property,” “Letter-of-Credit Right” and “Supporting Obligation” and, as such terms relate to any such Property of any Canadian Domiciled Obligor, such terms shall refer to such Property as defined in the PPSA (to the extent such terms are defined therein).
3.Certain Matters of Construction.  The terms “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section, paragraph or subdivision.  Any pronoun used shall be deemed to cover all genders.  In the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, “from” means “from and including,” and “to” and “until” each mean “to but excluding.”  The terms “including” and “include” shall mean “including, without limitation” and, for purposes of each Loan 








Document, the parties agree that the rule of ejusdem generis shall not be applicable to limit any provision.  Section titles appear as a matter of convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of any Loan Document.  All references to (a) laws or statutes include all related rules, regulations, interpretations, amendments and successor provisions; (b) any document, instrument or agreement include any amendments, waivers and other modifications, extensions or renewals (to the extent permitted by the Loan Documents); (c) any section mean, unless the context otherwise requires, a section of this Agreement; (d) any exhibits or schedules mean, unless the context otherwise requires, exhibits and schedules attached hereto, which are hereby incorporated by reference; (e) any Person include successors and assigns; (f) except as otherwise specified herein, time of day means time of day at Agent’s notice address under Section 14.3.1; or (g) discretion of Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender mean the sole and absolute discretion of such Person.  Except as expressly otherwise provided herein, all calculations of Value, fundings of Loans, issuances of Letters of Credit and payments of Obligations shall be in Dollars and, unless the context otherwise requires, all determinations (including calculations of Borrowing Base and financial covenants) made from time to time under the Loan Documents shall be made in light of the circumstances existing at such time.  Borrowing Base calculations shall be consistent with historical methods of valuation and calculation, and otherwise satisfactory to Agent (and not necessarily calculated in accordance with GAAP).  Obligors shall have the burden of establishing any alleged negligence, misconduct or lack of good faith by Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender under any Loan Documents.  No provision of any Loan Documents shall be construed against any party by reason of such party having, or being deemed to have, drafted the provision.  Whenever the phrase “to the best of an Obligor’s knowledge” or words of similar import are used in any Loan Documents, it means actual knowledge of a Senior Officer of such Obligor, or knowledge that a Senior Officer of such Obligor would have obtained if he or she had engaged in good faith and diligent performance of his or her duties, including reasonably specific inquiries of employees or agents and a good faith attempt to ascertain the matter to which such phrase relates.
4.Calculations.  All references in the Loan Documents to Loans, Letters of Credit, Obligations, Borrowing Base components and other amounts shall be denominated in Dollars, unless expressly provided otherwise.  The Dollar equivalent of any amounts denominated or reported under a Loan Document in a currency other than Dollars shall be determined by Agent on a daily basis, based on the current Spot Rate.  Borrowers shall report Value and other Borrowing Base components to Agent in the currency invoiced by Obligors or shown in Obligors’ financial records, and unless expressly provided otherwise, shall deliver financial statements and calculate financial covenants in Dollars.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Obligation is funded and expressly denominated in a currency other than Dollars, Obligors shall repay such Obligation in such other currency.
5.Interpretation (Quebec).  For purposes of any Collateral located in the Province of Quebec or charged by any deed of hypothec (or any other Loan Document) and for all other purposes pursuant to which the interpretation or construction of a Loan Document may be subject to the laws of the Province of Quebec or a court or tribunal exercising jurisdiction in the Province of Québec, (a) “personal property” shall be deemed to include “movable property”, (b) “real property” shall be deemed to include “immovable property”, (c) “tangible property” shall be deemed to include “corporeal property”, (d) “intangible property” shall be deemed to include “incorporeal property”, (e) “security interest” and “mortgage” shall be deemed to include a “hypothec”, (f) all references to filing, registering or recording under the UCC or the PPSA shall be deemed to include publication under the Civil Code of Québec, (g) all references to “perfection” of or “perfected” Liens shall be deemed to include a reference to the “opposability” of such Liens to third parties, (h) any “right of offset”, “right of setoff” or similar expression shall be deemed to include a “right of compensation”, (i) “goods” shall be deemed to include “corporeal movable property” other than chattel paper, documents of title, instruments, money and securities, (j) an “agent” shall be deemed to include a “mandatary” (k) “construction liens” 








shall be deemed to include “legal hypothecs”, (l) “joint and several” shall be deemed to include “solidary”, (m) “gross negligence or willful misconduct” shall be deemed to be “intentional or gross fault”, (n) “beneficial ownership” shall be deemed to include “ownership on behalf of another as mandatary”, (o) “servitude” shall be deemed to include “easement”, (p) “priority” shall be deemed to include “prior claim”, (q) “survey” shall be deemed to include “certificate of location and plan”, (r) “fee simple title” shall be deemed to include “absolute ownership” and (s) “foreclosure” shall be deemed to include the “exercise of a hypothecary right”.  For purposes of greater certainty, the reference to the “Loan Agreement” in the deed of hypothec dated November 3, 2017 executed by the Canadian Borrower in favor of the Agent means this Agreement.
1.7    LIBOR Amendment.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or Borrower Agent or Required Lenders notify Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to Borrower Agent) that Borrowers or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:
(a)    adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for any applicable interest period, because the LIBOR quote on the applicable screen page (or other source) used by Agent to determine LIBOR ("LIBOR Screen Rate") is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or 
(b)    the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date ("Scheduled Unavailability Date") after which LIBOR or the LIBOR Screen Rate will no longer be available or used for determining the interest rate of loans, provided that, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator satisfactory to Agent that will continue to provide LIBOR after the Scheduled Unavailability Date; or
(c)    syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section, are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace LIBOR; 
then, reasonably promptly after such determination or receipt of notice by Agent, Agent and Borrower Agent may amend this Agreement to replace LIBOR with (x) one or more SOFR-Based Rates or (y) another alternate benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar Dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such benchmarks, which adjustment or method for calculating such adjustment shall be published on an information service selected by Agent from time to time in its discretion and may be periodically updated ("Adjustment" and any such proposed rate, a "LIBOR Successor Rate"), and the amendment shall be effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after Agent posts the amendment to all Lenders and Borrowers unless, prior to such time, Required Lenders notify Agent that they (A) in the case of an amendment to replace LIBOR with a rate described in clause (x), object to the Adjustment; or (B) in the case of an amendment to replace LIBOR with a rate described in clause (y), object to such amendment; provided, that in the case of clause (A), Required Lenders shall not be entitled to object to any SOFR-Based Rate contained in any such amendment.  Such LIBOR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided, that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Agent, such LIBOR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by Agent.








If no LIBOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (a) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred, Agent will promptly notify Borrowers and Lenders.  Thereafter, (i) the obligation of Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected LIBOR Loans or Interest Periods), and (ii) the LIBOR component shall no longer be used in determining the U.S. Base Rate or the Canadian Base Rate.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower Agent may revoke any pending request for a funding of, conversion to or continuation of a LIBOR Loan (to the extent of the affected LIBOR Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have submitted a request for a U.S. Base Rate Loan, a Canadian Base Rate Loan, a U.K. Base Rate Loan or a German Base Rate Loan (but in the case of any such pending request in relation to a LIBOR Loan for the U.K. Borrower or a German Borrower, if (a) that LIBOR Loan was denominated in British Pounds, Swiss Francs or Euros, the Borrower Agent shall be deemed to have revoked any such pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of that LIBOR Loan, and the U.K. Borrower or German Borrower, as applicable, shall repay any such outstanding LIBOR Loan which was the subject of a continuation request, and (b) only if that LIBOR Loan was denominated in Dollars shall the Borrower Agent be deemed to have submitted a request for a U.K. Base Rate Loan or German Base Rate Loan, as applicable).
Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of LIBOR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such rate be less than zero for purposes of this Agreement.  In connection with the implementation of a LIBOR Successor Rate, Agent shall have the right to make LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

Any notice of removal given by Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.1.4(d) shall be irrevocable. Agent and the Lenders agree that Agent shall release any Liens with respect to the Eligible Real Estate to the extent the U.S. Real Estate Formula Amount is removed from the calculation of the U.S. Borrowing Base in accordance with this Section 2.1.4(d) and so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
1.Overadvances.  If the aggregate U.S. Revolver Loans exceed the U.S. Borrowing Base (a “U.S. Overadvance”) at any time, the excess amount shall be payable by U.S. Borrowers on demand by Agent, but all such U.S. Revolver Loans shall nevertheless constitute U.S. Facility Obligations secured by the U.S. Facility Collateral.

If the aggregate U.K. Revolver Loans exceed the U.K. Borrowing Base (a “U.K. Overadvance”) at any time, the excess amount shall be payable by the U.K. Borrower on demand by Agent, but all such U.K. Revolver Loans shall nevertheless constitute U.K. Facility Obligations secured by the U.K. Facility Collateral.  If the aggregate German Revolver Loans exceed the German Borrowing Base (a “German Overadvance”) at any time, the excess amount shall be payable by the German Borrower on demand by Agent, but all such German Revolver Loans shall nevertheless constitute German Facility Obligations secured by the German Facility Collateral.  Agent may require the Applicable Lenders to honor requests for Overadvance Loans and to forbear from requiring the applicable Borrowers to cure an Overadvance, (a) when no other Event of Default is known to Agent, as long as (i) the Overadvance does not continue for more than 30 consecutive days (and no Overadvance may exist for at least five consecutive days thereafter before further Overadvance Loans are required), and (ii) the Overadvance is not known by Agent to exceed 7.5% of the U.S. Borrowing Base with respect to the U.S. Borrowers, 7.5% of the Canadian Borrowing Base with respect to the Canadian Borrower, 7.5% of the German Borrowing Base with respect to the German Borrower, or 7.5% of the U.K. Borrowing Base with respect to the U.K. Borrower; and (b) regardless of whether an Event of Default exists, if Agent discovers an Overadvance not previously known by it to exist, as long as from the date of such discovery the Overadvance does not continue for more than 30 consecutive days.  In no event shall Overadvance Loans be required that would cause the outstanding U.S. Revolver Exposure to exceed the aggregate U.S. Revolver Commitments, the outstanding Canadian Revolver Exposure to exceed the aggregate Canadian Revolver Commitments, the outstanding U.K. Revolver Exposure to exceed the aggregate U.K. Revolver Commitments, or the outstanding German Revolver Exposure to exceed the aggregate German Revolver Commitments.  Any funding of an Overadvance Loan or sufferance of an Overadvance shall not constitute a waiver by Agent or Lenders of the Event of Default caused thereby.  In no event shall any Borrower or other Obligor be deemed a beneficiary of this Section 








nor authorized to enforce any of its terms.  Required Lenders may at any time revoke Agent’s authority to knowingly make further Overadvance Loans by written notice to Agent.
2.Protective Advances.  Agent shall be authorized, in its discretion, at any time that any conditions in Section 6 are not satisfied, and without regard to the aggregate U.S. Revolver Commitments, the Canadian Revolver Commitments, the U.K. Revolver Commitments, or the German Revolver Commitments to make U.S. Base Rate Revolver Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans, U.K. Base Rate Loans, and German Base Rate Loans, as applicable (each a “Protective Advance”) (a) up to an aggregate amount of (i) 10% of the aggregate Canadian Revolver Commitments (minus the aggregate amount of any outstanding Canadian Overadvances), with respect to the Canadian Borrower, (ii) 10% of the aggregate U.S. Revolver Commitments (minus the aggregate amount of any outstanding U.S. Overadvances), with respect to the U.S. Borrowers, (iii) 10% of the aggregate U.K. Revolver Commitments (minus the aggregate amount of any outstanding U.K. Overadvances), with respect to the U.K. Borrower, or (iv) 10% of the aggregate German Revolver Commitments (minus the aggregate amount of any outstanding German Overadvances), with respect to the German Borrower, in each case, outstanding at any time, if Agent deems such Loans necessary or desirable to preserve or protect Collateral, or to enhance the collectibility or repayment of Obligations; or (b) to pay any other amounts chargeable to Obligors under any Loan Documents, including costs, fees and expenses.  Each Applicable Lender shall participate in each Protective Advance on a Pro Rata basis.  Required Lenders may at any time revoke Agent’s authority to make further Protective Advances under clause (a) by written notice to Agent.  Absent such revocation, Agent’s determination that funding of a Protective Advance is appropriate shall be conclusive.  All Protective Advances made by Agent with respect to U.S. Borrowers shall be U.S. Facility Obligations, secured by the U.S. Facility Collateral and shall be treated for all purposes as Extraordinary Expenses.  All Protective Advances made by Agent with respect to Canadian Borrower shall be Canadian Facility Obligations, secured by the Canadian Facility Collateral and shall be treated for all purposes as Extraordinary Expenses.  All Protective Advances made by Agent with respect to the U.K. Borrower shall be U.K. Facility Obligations, secured by the U.K. Facility Collateral and shall be treated for all purposes as Extraordinary Expenses.  All Protective Advances made by Agent with respect to the German Borrower shall be German Facility Obligations, secured by the German Facility Collateral and shall be treated for all purposes as Extraordinary Expenses.  In no event shall Protective Advances be made by Agent if it would cause the outstanding U.S. Revolver Exposure to exceed the aggregate U.S. Revolver Commitments, the outstanding Canadian Revolver Exposure to exceed the aggregate Canadian Revolver Commitments, the outstanding U.K. Revolver Exposure to exceed the aggregate U.K. Revolver Commitments, or the outstanding German Revolver Exposure to exceed the aggregate German Revolver Commitments.
3.Increase in U.S. Revolver Commitments.  Borrowers may request an increase in the aggregate U.S. Revolver Commitments from time to time upon notice to Agent, as long as (a) the requested increase is in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 and is offered on the same terms as the existing U.S. Revolver Commitments, except for fees mutually agreed upon by Borrowers and Agent, (b) increases under this Section do not exceed $150,000,000 in the aggregate and no more than 3 increases are made, (c) no reduction in Revolver Commitments pursuant to Section 2.1.4 has occurred prior to the requested increase, (d) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such increase or result therefrom, and (e) Borrowers shall certify in writing to Agent that Borrowers are not in default under the Term Loan Facility Agreement after giving effect to the requested increase.  Agent shall promptly notify U.S. Lenders of the requested increase and, within 10 Business Days thereafter, each U.S. Lender shall notify Agent if and to what extent such Lender commits to increase its U.S. Revolver Commitment.  No such increases shall be consummated unless each U.S. Lender agrees to increase its U.S. Revolver Commitment on a Pro Rata basis.  Any U.S. Lender not responding within such period shall be deemed to have declined an increase.  Provided the 








conditions set forth in Section 6.2 are satisfied, total U.S. Revolver Commitments shall be increased by the requested amount (or such lesser amount committed by U.S. Lenders on a Pro Rata basis) on a date agreed upon by Agent and Borrower Agent, but no later than 45 days following Borrowers’ increase request.  Agent, Borrowers, and U.S. Lenders shall execute and deliver such documents and agreements as Agent deems appropriate to evidence the increase in and allocations of U.S. Revolver Commitments (which shall be on a Pro Rata basis among U.S. Lenders).  
2.aU.K. Letter of Credit Facility.
1.Issuance of U.K. Letters of Credit.  U.K. Issuing Bank shall issue U.K. Letters of Credit from time to time on and after the Closing Date until 30 days prior to the Facility Termination Date (or until the U.K. Revolver Commitment Termination Date, if earlier), on the terms set forth herein, including the following:
(2)The U.K. Borrower acknowledges that U.K. Issuing Bank’s issuance of any U.K. Letter of Credit is conditioned upon U.K. Issuing Bank’s receipt of a LC Application with respect to the requested U.K. Letter of Credit, as well as such other instruments and agreements as U.K. Issuing Bank may customarily require for issuance of a letter of credit of similar type and amount.  U.K. Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue any U.K. Letter of Credit unless (i) U.K. Issuing Bank receives a LC Request and LC Application at least three Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance; (ii) each LC Condition is satisfied; and (iii) if a Defaulting Lender that is a U.K. Lender exists, such Lender or the U.K. Borrower has entered into arrangements satisfactory to Agent and U.K. Issuing Bank to eliminate any Fronting Exposure associated with such Lender.  If, in sufficient time to act, U.K. Issuing Bank receives written notice from U.K. Required Lenders that a LC Condition has not been satisfied, U.K. Issuing Bank shall not issue the requested U.K. Letter of Credit.  Prior to receipt of any such notice, U.K. Issuing Bank shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any failure of LC Conditions.
(3)U.K. Letters of Credit may be requested by the U.K. Borrower to support obligations incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business, or as otherwise approved by Agent.  The renewal or extension of any U.K. Letter of Credit shall be treated as the issuance of a new U.K. Letter of Credit, except that delivery of a new LC Application shall be required at the discretion of U.K. Issuing Bank.
(4)The U.K. Borrower assumes all risks of the acts, omissions or misuses of any U.K. Letter of Credit by the beneficiary.  In connection with issuance of any U.K. Letter of Credit, none of Agent, Issuing Banks or any Lender shall be responsible for the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods purported to be represented by any Documents; any differences or variation in the character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods from that expressed in any Documents; the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Documents or of any endorsements thereon; the time, place, manner or order in which shipment of goods is made; partial or incomplete shipment of, or failure to ship, any goods referred to in a U.K. Letter of Credit or Documents; any deviation from instructions, delay, default or fraud by any shipper or other Person in connection with any goods, shipment or delivery; any breach of contract between a shipper or vendor and the U.K. Borrower; errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, telecopy, e-mail, telephone or otherwise; errors in interpretation of technical terms; the misapplication by a beneficiary of any U.K. Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof; or any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Issuing Banks, Agent or any Lender, including any act or omission of a Governmental Authority.  The rights and remedies of U.K. Issuing Bank under the Loan Documents shall be cumulative.  U.K. Issuing Bank shall be fully subrogated to the rights 








and remedies of each beneficiary whose claims against the U.K. Borrower are discharged with proceeds of any U.K. Letter of Credit.
(5)In connection with its administration of and enforcement of rights or remedies under any U.K. Letters of Credit or LC Documents, U.K. Issuing Bank shall be entitled to act, and shall be fully protected in acting, upon any certification, documentation or communication in whatever form believed by U.K. Issuing Bank, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by a proper Person.  U.K. Issuing Bank may consult with and employ legal counsel, accountants and other experts to advise it concerning its obligations, rights and remedies, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by such experts.  U.K. Issuing Bank may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection with any matter relating to U.K. Letters of Credit or LC Documents, and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of agents and attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care.
2.2.i.Reimbursement; Participations.
(6)If U.K. Issuing Bank honors any request for payment under a U.K. Letter of Credit, the U.K. Borrower shall pay to U.K. Issuing Bank, on the same day (“U.K. Reimbursement Date”), the amount paid by U.K. Issuing Bank under such U.K. Letter of Credit in the same currency in which the Letter of Credit was denominated unless otherwise specified by Agent or U.K. Issuing Bank (at their respective option) that it requires payment in Dollars, British Pounds or Euros calculated at the Spot Rate, together with interest at the interest rate for U.K. Base Rate Loans from the U.K. Reimbursement Date until payment by the U.K. Borrower.  The obligation of the U.K. Borrower to reimburse U.K. Issuing Bank for any payment made under a U.K. Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, irrevocable, and joint and several, and shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any U.K. Letter of Credit or the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the U.K. Borrower may have at any time against the beneficiary.  Whether or not Borrower Agent submits a Notice of Borrowing, the U.K. Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of a LIBOR Revolver Loan (the initial Interest Period of which shall be 30 days commencing on the relevant Reimbursement Date) in an amount necessary to pay all amounts due U.K. Issuing Bank on that U.K. Reimbursement Date and each U.K. Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing whether or not the U.K. Revolver Commitments have terminated, a U.K. Overadvance exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied.  In the event that (i) a drawing denominated in a foreign currency (other than Dollars, British Pounds and Euros) (such foreign currency, a “U.K. Reimbursed Foreign Currency”) is to be reimbursed in Dollars, British Pounds or Euros pursuant to the first sentence in this Section 2.2.2(a); and (ii) the Dollars, British Pounds or Euros amount, as applicable, paid by the U.K. Borrower shall not be adequate on the date of that payment to purchase in accordance with normal banking procedures a sum denominated in the U.K. Reimbursed Foreign Currency equal to the drawing, the U.K. Borrower agrees, as a separate and independent obligation, to indemnify U.K. Issuing Bank for the loss resulting from its inability on that date to purchase the U.K. Reimbursed Foreign Currency in the full amount of the drawing.
(7)Upon issuance of a U.K. Letter of Credit, each U.K. Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from U.K. Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided Pro Rata interest and participation in all U.K. LC Obligations relating to the U.K. Letter of Credit.  If U.K. Issuing Bank makes any payment under a U.K. Letter of Credit and the U.K. Borrower does not reimburse such payment on the U.K. Reimbursement Date, Agent shall promptly notify U.K. Lenders and each U.K. Lender shall promptly (within one Business Day) and unconditionally pay to Agent, for the benefit of U.K. Issuing Bank, the U.K. Lender’s Pro Rata share of such payment in the same currency as required of the U.K. Borrower in accordance with Section 2.2.2(a).  Upon request by a U.K. 








Lender, U.K. Issuing Bank shall furnish copies of any U.K. Letters of Credit and LC Documents in its possession at such time.
(8)The obligation of each U.K. Lender to make payments to Agent for the account of U.K. Issuing Bank in connection with U.K. Issuing Bank’s payment under a U.K. Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, not subject to any counterclaim, setoff, qualification or exception whatsoever, and shall be made in accordance with this Agreement under all circumstances, irrespective of any lack of validity or unenforceability of any Loan Documents; any draft, certificate or other document presented under a U.K. Letter of Credit having been determined to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or the existence of any setoff or defense that any Obligor may have with respect to any Obligations.  U.K. Issuing Bank does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by the U.K. Borrower or other Person of any obligations under any LC Documents.  U.K. Issuing Bank does not make to Lenders any express or implied warranty, representation or guaranty with respect to the Collateral, LC Documents or any Obligor.  U.K. Issuing Bank shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in, or for the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any LC Documents; the validity, genuineness, enforceability, collectibility, value or sufficiency of any Collateral or the perfection of any Lien therein; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Obligor.
(9)No Issuing Bank Indemnitee shall be liable to any Lender or other Person for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with any LC Documents except as a result of its actual gross negligence or willful misconduct.  U.K. Issuing Bank shall not have any liability to any Lender if U.K. Issuing Bank refrains from any action under a Letter of Credit or LC Documents until it receives written instructions from U.K. Required Lenders.
2.Cash Collateral.  If any U.K. LC Obligations, whether or not then due or payable, shall for any reason be outstanding at any time (a) that an Event of Default exists, (b) that U.K. Availability is less than zero, or (c) within 10 Business Days prior to the U.K. Revolver Commitment Termination Date, then the U.K. Borrower shall, at U.K. Issuing Bank’s or Agent’s request, Cash Collateralize the stated amount of all outstanding U.K. Letters of Credit and pay to U.K. Issuing Bank the amount of all other U.K. LC Obligations.  The U.K. Borrower shall, on demand by U.K. Issuing Bank or Agent from time to time, Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of any Defaulting Lender which is a U.K. Lender.  If the U.K. Borrower fails to provide any Cash Collateral as required hereunder, U.K. Lenders may (and shall upon direction of Agent) advance, as U.K. Revolver Loans, the amount of the Cash Collateral required (whether or not the U.K. Revolver Commitments have terminated, a U.K. Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied).
3.Resignation of U.K. Issuing Bank.  U.K. Issuing Bank may resign at any time upon notice to Agent and the U.K. Borrower.  On the effective date of such resignation, U.K. Issuing Bank shall have no further obligation to issue, amend, renew, extend or otherwise modify any Letter of Credit, but shall continue to have all rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank hereunder, including under Sections 2.2, 12.6 and 14.2, relating to any Letter of Credit issued prior to such date.  Agent shall promptly appoint a replacement U.K. Issuing Bank, which, as long as no Default or Event of Default exists, shall be reasonably acceptable to the U.K. Borrower.

In connection with issuance of any Canadian Letter of Credit, none of Agent, Issuing Banks or any Lender shall be responsible for the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods purported to be represented by any Documents; any differences or variation in the character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods from that expressed in any Documents; the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Documents or of any endorsements thereon; the time, place, manner or order in which shipment of goods is made; partial or incomplete shipment of, or failure to ship, any goods referred to in a Canadian Letter of Credit or Documents; any deviation from instructions, delay, default or fraud by any shipper or other Person in connection with any goods, shipment or delivery; any breach of contract between a shipper or vendor and Canadian Borrower; errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, telecopy, e-mail, telephone or otherwise; errors in interpretation of technical terms; the misapplication by a beneficiary of any Canadian Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof; or any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Issuing Banks, Agent or any Lender, including any act or omission of a Governmental Authority.  The rights and remedies of Canadian Issuing Bank under the Loan Documents shall be cumulative.  Canadian Issuing Bank shall be fully subrogated to the rights and remedies of each beneficiary whose claims against Canadian Borrower are discharged with proceeds of any Canadian Letter of Credit.
(22)In connection with its administration of and enforcement of rights or remedies under any Canadian Letters of Credit or LC Documents, Canadian Issuing Bank shall be entitled to act, and shall be fully protected in acting, upon any certification, documentation or communication in whatever form believed by Canadian Issuing Bank, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by a proper Person.  Canadian Issuing Bank may consult with and employ legal counsel, accountants and other experts to advise it concerning its obligations, rights and remedies, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by such experts.  Canadian Issuing Bank may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection with any matter relating to Canadian Letters of Credit or LC Documents, and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of agents and attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care.
2.4.ii.Reimbursement; Participations.
(23)If Canadian Issuing Bank honors any request for payment under a Canadian Letter of Credit, Canadian Borrower shall pay to Canadian Issuing Bank, on the same day (“Canadian Reimbursement Date”), the amount paid by Canadian Issuing Bank under such Canadian Letter of Credit in the same currency in which the Letter of Credit was denominated unless otherwise specified by Agent or Canadian Issuing Bank (at their respective option) that it requires payment in Dollars or Canadian Dollars calculated at the Spot Rate, together with 








interest at the interest rate for Canadian Prime Rate Loans from the Canadian Reimbursement Date until payment by Canadian Borrower.  The obligation of Canadian Borrower to reimburse Canadian Issuing Bank for any payment made under a Canadian Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, irrevocable, and joint and several, and shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any Canadian Letter of Credit or the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that Canadian Borrower may have at any time against the beneficiary.  Whether or not Borrower Agent submits a Notice of Borrowing, Canadian Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans in an amount necessary to pay all amounts due Canadian Issuing Bank on any Canadian Reimbursement Date and each Canadian Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing whether or not the Canadian Revolver Commitments have terminated, a Canadian Overadvance exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied.  In the event that (i) a drawing denominated in a foreign currency (other than Dollars or Canadian Dollars) (such foreign currency, a “Canadian Reimbursed Foreign Currency”) is to be reimbursed in Dollars or Canadian Dollars pursuant to the first sentence in this Section 2.4.2(a); and (ii) the Dollars or Canadian Dollars amount, as applicable, paid by Canadian Borrower shall not be adequate on the date of that payment to purchase in accordance with normal banking procedures a sum denominated in the Canadian Reimbursed Foreign Currency equal to the drawing, Canadian Borrower agrees, as a separate and independent obligation, to indemnify Canadian Issuing Bank for the loss resulting from its inability on that date to purchase the Canadian Reimbursed Foreign Currency in the full amount of the drawing.
(24)Upon issuance of a Canadian Letter of Credit, each Canadian Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from Canadian Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided Pro Rata interest and participation in all Canadian LC Obligations relating to the Canadian Letter of Credit.  If Canadian Issuing Bank makes any payment under a Canadian Letter of Credit and Canadian Borrower does not reimburse such payment on the Canadian Reimbursement Date, Agent shall promptly notify Canadian Lenders and each Canadian Lender shall promptly (within one Business Day) and unconditionally pay to Agent, for the benefit of Canadian Issuing Bank, the Canadian Lender’s Pro Rata share of such payment in the same currency as required of the Canadian Borrower in accordance with Section 2.4.2(a).  Upon request by a Canadian Lender, Canadian Issuing Bank shall furnish copies of any Canadian Letters of Credit and LC Documents in its possession at such time.
(25)The obligation of each Canadian Lender to make payments to Agent for the account of Canadian Issuing Bank in connection with Canadian Issuing Bank’s payment under a Canadian Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, not subject to any counterclaim, setoff, qualification or exception whatsoever, and shall be made in accordance with this Agreement under all circumstances, irrespective of any lack of validity or unenforceability of any Loan Documents; any draft, certificate or other document presented under a Canadian Letter of Credit having been determined to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or the existence of any setoff or defense that any Obligor may have with respect to any Obligations.  Canadian Issuing Bank does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by Canadian Borrower or other Person of any obligations under any LC Documents.  Canadian Issuing Bank does not make to Lenders any express or implied warranty, representation or guaranty with respect to the Collateral, LC Documents or any Obligor.  Canadian Issuing Bank shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in, or for the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any LC Documents; the validity, genuineness, enforceability, collectibility, value or sufficiency of any Collateral or the perfection of any Lien therein; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Obligor.








(26)No Issuing Bank Indemnitee shall be liable to any Lender or other Person for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with any LC Documents except as a result of its actual gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Canadian Issuing Bank shall not have any liability to any Lender if Canadian Issuing Bank refrains from any action under a Letter of Credit or LC Documents until it receives written instructions from Canadian Required Lenders.
2.4.i.Cash Collateral.  If any Canadian LC Obligations, whether or not then due or payable, shall for any reason be outstanding at any time (a) that an Event of Default exists, (b) that Canadian Availability is less than zero, or (c) within 10 Business Days prior to the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date, then Canadian Borrower shall, at Canadian Issuing Bank’s or Agent’s request, Cash Collateralize the stated amount of all outstanding Canadian Letters of Credit and pay to Canadian Issuing Bank the amount of all other Canadian LC Obligations.  Canadian Borrower shall, on demand by Canadian Issuing Bank or Agent from time to time, Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of any Defaulting Lender which is a Canadian Lender.  If Canadian Borrower fails to provide any Cash Collateral as required hereunder, Canadian Lenders may (and shall upon direction of Agent) advance, as Canadian Revolver Loans, the amount of the Cash Collateral required (whether or not the Canadian Revolver Commitments have terminated, a Canadian Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied).
2.4.ii.Resignation of Canadian Issuing Bank.  Canadian Issuing Bank may resign at any time upon notice to Agent and Canadian Borrower.  On the effective date of such resignation, Canadian Issuing Bank shall have no further obligation to issue, amend, renew, extend or otherwise modify any Letter of Credit, but shall continue to have all rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank hereunder, including under Sections 2.4, 12.6 and 14.2, relating to any Letter of Credit issued prior to such date.  Agent shall promptly appoint a replacement Canadian Issuing Bank, which, as long as no Default or Event of Default exists, shall be reasonably acceptable to Canadian Borrower.
2.cGerman Letter of Credit Facility.
2.5.i.Issuance of German Letters of Credit.  German Issuing Bank shall issue German Letters of Credit from time to time on and after the Closing Date until 30 days prior to the Facility Termination Date (or until the German Revolver Commitment Termination Date, if earlier), on the terms set forth herein, including the following:
(27)The German Borrower acknowledges that German Issuing Bank’s issuance of any German Letter of Credit is conditioned upon German Issuing Bank’s receipt of a LC Application with respect to the requested German Letter of Credit, as well as such other instruments and agreements as German Issuing Bank may customarily require for issuance of a letter of credit of similar type and amount.  German Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue any German Letter of Credit unless (i) German Issuing Bank receives a LC Request and LC Application at least three Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance; (ii) each LC Condition is satisfied; and (iii) if a Defaulting Lender that is a German Lender exists, such Lender or the German Borrower have entered into arrangements satisfactory to Agent and German Issuing Bank to eliminate any Fronting Exposure associated with such Lender.  If, in sufficient time to act, German Issuing Bank receives written notice from German Required Lenders that a LC Condition has not been satisfied, German Issuing Bank shall not issue the requested German Letter of Credit.  Prior to receipt of any such notice, German Issuing Bank shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any failure of LC Conditions.
(28)German Letters of Credit may be requested by the German Borrower to support obligations incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business, or as otherwise approved by Agent.  The renewal or extension of any German Letter of Credit shall be treated as the issuance 








of a new German Letter of Credit, except that delivery of a new LC Application shall be required at the discretion of German Issuing Bank.
(29)The German Borrower assumes all risks of the acts, omissions or misuses of any German Letter of Credit by the beneficiary.  In connection with issuance of any German Letter of Credit, none of Agent, Issuing Banks or any Lender shall be responsible for the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods purported to be represented by any Documents; any differences or variation in the character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods from that expressed in any Documents; the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Documents or of any endorsements thereon; the time, place, manner or order in which shipment of goods is made; partial or incomplete shipment of, or failure to ship, any goods referred to in a German Letter of Credit or Documents; any deviation from instructions, delay, default or fraud by any shipper or other Person in connection with any goods, shipment or delivery; any breach of contract between a shipper or vendor and the German Borrower; errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, telecopy, e-mail, telephone or otherwise; errors in interpretation of technical terms; the misapplication by a beneficiary of any German Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof; or any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Issuing Banks, Agent or any Lender, including any act or omission of a Governmental Authority.  The rights and remedies of German Issuing Bank under the Loan Documents shall be cumulative.  German Issuing Bank shall be fully subrogated to the rights and remedies of each beneficiary whose claims against the German Borrower are discharged with proceeds of any German Letter of Credit.
(30)In connection with its administration of and enforcement of rights or remedies under any German Letters of Credit or LC Documents, German Issuing Bank shall be entitled to act, and shall be fully protected in acting, upon any certification, documentation or communication in whatever form believed by German Issuing Bank, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by a proper Person.  German Issuing Bank may consult with and employ legal counsel, accountants and other experts to advise it concerning its obligations, rights and remedies, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by such experts.  German Issuing Bank may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection with any matter relating to German Letters of Credit or LC Documents, and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of agents and attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care.
2.5.ii.Reimbursement; Participations.
(31)If German Issuing Bank honors any request for payment under a German Letter of Credit, the German Borrower shall pay to German Issuing Bank, on the same day (“German Reimbursement Date”), the amount paid by German Issuing Bank under such German Letter of Credit in the same currency in which the Letter of Credit was denominated unless otherwise specified by Agent or German Issuing Bank (at their respective option) that it requires payment in Dollars, British Pounds, Swiss Francs or Euros calculated at the Spot Rate, together with interest at the interest rate for German Base Rate Loans from the German Reimbursement Date until payment by the German Borrower.  The obligation of the German Borrower to reimburse German Issuing Bank for any payment made under a German Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, irrevocable, and joint and several, and shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any German Letter of Credit or the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the German Borrower may have at any time against the beneficiary.  Whether or not Borrower Agent submits a Notice of Borrowing, the German Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of a LIBOR Revolver Loan (the initial Interest Period of which shall be 30 days commencing on the relevant Reimbursement Date) in an amount necessary to pay all amounts due German Issuing Bank on that German 








Reimbursement Date and each German Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing whether or not the German Revolver Commitments have terminated, a German Overadvance exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied.  In the event that (i) a drawing denominated in a foreign currency (other than Dollars, British Pounds, Swiss Francs and Euros) (such foreign currency, a “German Reimbursed Foreign Currency”) is to be reimbursed in Dollars, British Pounds, Swiss Francs or Euros pursuant to the first sentence in this Section 2.5.2(a); and (ii) the Dollars, British Pounds, Swiss Francs or Euros amount, as applicable, paid by the German Borrower shall not be adequate on the date of that payment to purchase in accordance with normal banking procedures a sum denominated in the German Reimbursed Foreign Currency equal to the drawing, the German Borrower agrees, as a separate and independent obligation, to indemnify German Issuing Bank for the loss resulting from its inability on that date to purchase the German Reimbursed Foreign Currency in the full amount of the drawing.
(32)Upon issuance of a German Letter of Credit, each German Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from German Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided Pro Rata interest and participation in all German LC Obligations relating to the German Letter of Credit.  If German Issuing Bank makes any payment under a German Letter of Credit and the German Borrower does not reimburse such payment on the German Reimbursement Date, Agent shall promptly notify German Lenders and each German Lender shall promptly (within one Business Day) and unconditionally pay to Agent, for the benefit of German Issuing Bank, the German Lender’s Pro Rata share of such payment in the same currency as required of the German Borrower in accordance with Section 2.5.2(a).  Upon request by a German Lender, German Issuing Bank shall furnish copies of any German Letters of Credit and LC Documents in its possession at such time.
(33)The obligation of each German Lender to make payments to Agent for the account of German Issuing Bank in connection with German Issuing Bank’s payment under a German Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, not subject to any counterclaim, setoff, qualification or exception whatsoever, and shall be made in accordance with this Agreement under all circumstances, irrespective of any lack of validity or unenforceability of any Loan Documents; any draft, certificate or other document presented under a German Letter of Credit having been determined to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or the existence of any setoff or defense that any Obligor may have with respect to any Obligations.  German Issuing Bank does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by the German Borrower or other Person of any obligations under any LC Documents.  German Issuing Bank does not make to Lenders any express or implied warranty, representation or guaranty with respect to the Collateral, LC Documents or any Obligor.  German Issuing Bank shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in, or for the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any LC Documents; the validity, genuineness, enforceability, collectibility, value or sufficiency of any Collateral or the perfection of any Lien therein; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Obligor.
(34)No Issuing Bank Indemnitee shall be liable to any Lender or other Person for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with any LC Documents except as a result of its actual gross negligence or willful misconduct.  German Issuing Bank shall not have any liability to any Lender if German Issuing Bank refrains from any action under a Letter of Credit or LC Documents until it receives written instructions from German Required Lenders.
2.5.i.Cash Collateral.  If any German LC Obligations, whether or not then due or payable, shall for any reason be outstanding at any time (a) that an Event of Default exists, (b) 








that German Availability is less than zero, or (c) within 10 Business Days prior to the German Revolver Commitment Termination Date, then the German Borrower shall, at German Issuing Bank’s or Agent’s request, Cash Collateralize the stated amount of all outstanding German Letters of Credit and pay to German Issuing Bank the amount of all other German LC Obligations.  The German Borrower shall, on demand by German Issuing Bank or Agent from time to time, Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of any Defaulting Lender which is a German Lender.  If the German Borrower fail to provide any Cash Collateral as required hereunder, German Lenders may (and shall upon direction of Agent) advance, as German Revolver Loans, the amount of the Cash Collateral required (whether or not the German Revolver Commitments have terminated, a German Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied).
2.5.ii.Resignation of German Issuing Bank.  German Issuing Bank may resign at any time upon notice to Agent and the German Borrower.  On the effective date of such resignation, German Issuing Bank shall have no further obligation to issue, amend, renew, extend or otherwise modify any Letter of Credit, but shall continue to have all rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank hereunder, including under Sections 2.2, 12.6 and 14.2, relating to any Letter of Credit issued prior to such date.  Agent shall promptly appoint a replacement German Issuing Bank, which, as long as no Default or Event of Default exists, shall be reasonably acceptable to the German Borrower.

2.6.i.Term Loans to U.S. Borrowers.  Each U.S. Lender agrees, severally (and not jointly) on a Pro Rata basis up to its Term Loan Commitment, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and subject to Agent’s receipt, after the Second Amendment Effective Date, of an appraisal with respect to the Eligible Real Estate performed by an appraiser and on terms satisfactory to Agent, to make a one-time Term Loan to the U.S. Borrowers on any Business Day during the period from the Second Amendment Effective Date to September 30, 2020; provided, however, that such U.S. Lenders shall have no obligation to the U.S. Borrowers whatsoever to honor any request for a Term Loan on or after the Term Loan Commitment Termination Date.  The Term Loans shall bear interest as set forth in Section 3.1.  The Term Loans shall, at the option of the Borrower Agent, be made or continued as, or converted into, part of one or more Borrowings that, unless specifically provided herein, shall consist entirely of Base Rate Term Loans or LIBOR Term Loans.  The Term Loans shall be repaid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and shall be secured by all of the U.S. Facility Collateral.  U.S. Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all of the Term Loans.  The Term Loans shall be funded and repaid in Dollars.  For clarification, once repaid, the Term Loans may not be reborrowed.
2.6.ii.Term Notes.  The Term Loans made by each U.S. Lender and interest accruing thereon shall be evidenced by the records of Agent and such Lender.  At the request of any U.S. Lender, the U.S. Borrowers shall execute and deliver a promissory note to such Lender, evidencing its Term Loans.

Interest shall accrue from the date the Loan is advanced or the Obligation is incurred or payable, until paid by the applicable Borrower(s).

(3)During an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to any Obligor (other than any Insolvency Proceedings against a German Domiciled Obligor initiated by any winding-up petition that is frivolous or vexatious and is discharged, stayed or dismissed within 14 days of commencement), or during any other Event of Default if Agent or Required Lenders in their discretion so elect, Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate (whether before or after any judgment).  Each Obligor acknowledges that the cost and expense to Agent and Lenders due to an Event of Default are difficult to ascertain and that the Default Rate is a fair and reasonable estimate to compensate Agent and Lenders for this.
(4)Interest accrued on the Loans shall be due and payable (i) on the last day of the relevant Interest Period with respect to Interest Period Loans (or in the case of an Interest Period Loan with an Interest Period of more than 90 days’ duration, on each quarterly anniversary of the first day of such Interest Period) or, in arrears on the first day of each month with respect to Base Rate Loans, and (ii) on any date of prepayment, with respect to the principal

(5)Borrowers may on any Business Day, subject to delivery of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, elect to convert any portion of the U.S. Base Rate Loans, the Canadian Base Rate Loans, the U.K. Base Rate Loans, or the German Base Rate Loans, as applicable, to, or to continue any LIBOR Loan at the end of its Interest Period as, a LIBOR Loan; provided that, in the case of U.K. Base Rate Loans and German Base Rate Loans only, portions of such Loans may be converted to a LIBOR Loan denominated in Dollars only.  During any Default or Event of Default, Agent may (and shall at the direction of Required Lenders) declare that no Loan may be made, converted or continued as a LIBOR Loan. 
(6)Whenever Borrowers desire to convert or continue Loans as LIBOR Loans, Borrower Agent shall give Agent a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, no later than 11:00 a.m. at least three Business Days (and at least four Business Days in the case of a U.K. Revolver Loan or a German Revolver Loan) before the requested conversion or continuation date.  Promptly after receiving any such notice, Agent shall notify each Applicable Lender (or Lenders with outstanding Term Loans if related to the Term Loans) thereof.  Each Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall be irrevocable, and shall specify the amount of Loans to be converted or continued, the conversion or continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), and the duration of the Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be 30 days if not specified).  If, upon the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of any LIBOR Loans, Borrower Agent shall have failed to deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Loans into U.S. Base Rate Loans (if owing by the U.S. Borrowers), Canadian Base Rate Loans (if owing by the Canadian Borrower), a U.K. Base Rate Loan (if owing by the U.K. Borrower) if that LIBOR Loan was denominated in Dollars, or (as the case may be) a LIBOR Loan (the initial Interest Period of which shall be 30 days commencing on the date of expiration of the Interest Period applicable to that LIBOR Loan) if that LIBOR Loan was denominated in British Pounds, Swiss Francs or Euros, or a German Base Rate Loan (if owing by the German Borrower) if that LIBOR Loan was denominated in Dollars, or (as the case may be) a LIBOR Loan (the initial Interest Period of which shall be 30 days commencing on the date of expiration of the Interest Period applicable to that LIBOR Loan) if that LIBOR Loan was denominated in British Pounds, Swiss Francs or Euros. 
3.1.i.Application of Canadian BA Rate to Outstanding Loans.
(7)Canadian Borrower may on any Business Day, subject to delivery of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation and the other terms hereof, elect to convert any portion of the Canadian Prime Rate Loans, or to continue any Canadian BA Rate Loan at the end of its Interest Period as, a Canadian BA Rate Loan.  During any Default or Event of Default, Agent may (and shall at the direction of Required Lenders) declare that no Loan may be made, converted or continued as a Canadian BA Rate Loan.








(8)Whenever Canadian Borrower desires to convert or continue Loans as Canadian BA Rate Loans, Borrower Agent shall give Agent a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, no later than 11:00 a.m. at least three Business Days before the requested conversion or continuation date.  Promptly after receiving any such notice, Agent shall notify each Canadian Lender thereof.  Each Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall be irrevocable, and shall specify the amount of Loans to be converted or continued, the conversion or continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), and the duration of the Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be one month if not specified).  If, upon the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of any Canadian BA Rate Loans, Borrower Agent shall have failed to deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation with respect thereto as required above, Canadian Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Loans into Canadian Prime Rate Loans.
3.1.iii.Interest Periods.  (a) In connection with the making, conversion or continuation of any LIBOR Loans or Canadian BA Rate Loans, Borrower Agent shall select an interest period (“Interest Period”) to apply, which interest period shall be 30, 60, 90 or(other than with respect to LIBOR Loans in Dollars) 60, 90 or (other than with respect to Canadian BA Rate Loans) 180 days; provided, however, that:
(a) (i) the Interest Period shall commence on the date the Loan is made or continued as, or converted into, a LIBOR Loan or Canadian BA Rate Loan, and shall expire on the numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at its end;
(b) (ii) if any Interest Period commences on a day for which there is no corresponding day in the calendar month at its end or if such corresponding day falls after the last Business Day of such month, then the Interest Period shall expire on the last Business Day of such month; and if any Interest Period would expire on a day that is not a Business Day, the period shall expire on the next Business Day; and
(c) (iii) no Interest Period shall extend beyond: (i) the U.S. Revolver Commitment Termination Date in the case of any Revolving Loan owing by the U.S. Borrowers, (ii) the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date in the case of any Loan owing by the Canadian Borrower, (iii) the U.K. Revolver Commitment Termination Date in the case of any Loan owing by the U.K. Borrower, (iv) the German Revolver Commitment Termination Date in the case of any Loan owing by the German Borrower, and (v) the Term Loan Maturity Date in the case of any Term Loan owing by the U.S. Borrowers.  No Interest Period for a LIBOR Term Loan may be established that would require repayment before the end of an Interest Period in order to make any scheduled principal payment on Term Loans; and
(9)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, as to each Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan, “Interest Period” shall mean the period commencing on the date such Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan is disbursed or converted to or continued as an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan and ending on the date one, three or six months thereafter (in each case, subject to availability for the interest rate applicable to the relevant currency), as selected by the Borrower Agent in its Notice of Borrowing, or such other period that is twelve months or less requested by the Borrower Agent and consented to by all the applicable Lenders; provided that:
(i)    any Interest Period that would otherwise end on a day that is not a Business Day shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless, in the case of an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan, such Business Day falls in 








another calendar month, in which case such Interest Period shall end on the next preceding Business Day;
(ii)    any Interest Period pertaining to an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan that begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month (or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period) shall end on the last Business Day of the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period; and
(iii)    no Interest Period shall extend beyond the applicable maturity date set forth in this Agreement.
3.1.ii.Interest Rate Not Ascertainable.  If Agent shall determine that, on any date for determining LIBOR or the Canadian BA Rate, due to any circumstance affecting the London interbank market or the Canadian interbank bankers’ acceptances market, respectively, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining such rate on the basis provided herein, then Agent shall immediately notify the Borrower Agent of such determination.  Until Agent notifies the Borrower Agent that such circumstance no longer exists, the obligation of the Lenders to make LIBOR Loans or Canadian BA Rate Loans, as applicable, shall be suspended, and no further Loans may be converted into or continued as LIBOR Loans or Canadian BA Rate Loans, as applicable.

3.cComputation of Interest, Fees, Yield Protection.  All interest, as well as fees and other charges calculated on a per annum basis, shall be computed for the actual days elapsed, based on a year of 360 days, or, in the case of (a) interest based on the Canadian Prime Rate or Canadian BA Rate or (b) a Revolver Loan made in British Pounds, on the basis of a 365 day year, as the case may be.  Each determination by Agent of any interest, fees or interest rate hereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.  All fees shall be fully earned when due and shall not be subject to rebate, refund or proration.  All fees payable under Section 3.2 are compensation for services and are not, and shall not be deemed to be, interest or any other charge for the use, forbearance or detention of money.  A certificate as to amounts payable by any Borrower under Section 3.4, 3.5, 3.7, 3.9 or 5.9, submitted to the Borrower Agent by Agent or the affected Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers shall pay such amounts to the appropriate party within 10 days following receipt of the certificate.  For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest to which any rate calculated on the basis of a period of time different from the actual number of days in the year (360 days, for example) is equivalent is the stated rate multiplied by the actual number of days in  the year (365 or 366, as applicable) and divided by the number of days in the shorter period (360 days, in the example), and the parties hereto acknowledge that there is a material distinction between the nominal and effective rates of interest and that they are capable of making the calculations necessary to compare such rates and that the calculations herein are to be made using the nominal rate method and not on any basis that gives effect to the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest.  Each Canadian Domiciled Obligor confirms that it fully understands and is able to calculate the rate of interest applicable to Loans and other Obligations based on the methodology for calculating per annum rates provided for in this Agreement and each Canadian Domiciled Obligor hereby irrevocably agrees not to plead or assert, whether by way of defense or otherwise, in any proceeding relating to this Agreement or to any other Loan Documents, that the interest payable under this Agreement and the calculation thereof has not been adequately disclosed to the Canadian Domiciled Obligors as required pursuant to Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada).
3.dReimbursement Obligations.  Borrowers within each Borrower Group shall reimburse Agent and each Lender for all Extraordinary Expenses incurred by Agent or such Lender in reference to such Borrower Group or its related Obligations or Collateral.  In addition to such Extraordinary Expenses, such Borrowers shall also reimburse Agent for all legal, accounting, appraisal, consulting,  and other fees, costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with (a) negotiation and preparation of any Loan Documents, including any amendment or other modification thereof; (b) administration of and actions relating to any Collateral for its Obligations, Loan Documents and transactions contemplated thereby, including any actions taken to perfect or maintain priority of Agent’s Liens on any such Collateral, to maintain any insurance required hereunder or to verify such Collateral; and (c) subject to any limits of Section 10.1.1(b), each inspection, audit or appraisal with respect to any Obligor within such Borrowers’ related Obligor Group or Collateral securing such Obligor Group’s Obligations, whether prepared by Agent’s personnel or a third party.  All legal, accounting and consulting fees shall be charged to Borrowers by Agent’s professionals at their full hourly rates, regardless of any reduced or alternative fee billing arrangements that Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates may have with such professionals with respect to this or any other transaction.  If, for any reason (including inaccurate reporting on financial statements, a Borrowing Base Certificate, or a Compliance Certificate), it is determined that a higher Applicable Margin, U.S. Unused Line Fee Rate, Canadian Unused Line Fee Rate, U.K. Unused Line Fee Rate, or German Unused Line Fee 








Rate should have applied to a period than was actually applied, then the proper margin shall be applied retroactively and the applicable Borrowers shall immediately pay to Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of Applicable Lenders (or Lenders with outstanding Term Loans in the case of interest related to the Term Loans), an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest and fees that would have accrued using the proper margin and the amount actually paid.  All amounts payable by Borrowers under this Section shall be due on demand.
3.eIllegality.  If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund LIBOR Loans or Canadian BA Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon LIBOR or the Canadian BA Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, the applicable Available Currency in the London interbank market, or Canadian Dollars through bankers’ acceptances, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue LIBOR Loans or Canadian BA Rate Loans, as applicable, or to convert U.S. Base Rate Loans or Canadian Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans, or Canadian Prime Rate Loans to Canadian BA Rate Loans, or U.K. Base Rate Loans or German Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans, as applicable, shall be suspended until such Lender notifies Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.  Upon delivery of such notice, the applicable Borrower(s) with respect to such Loans shall prepay or, if applicable, convert all LIBOR Loans of such Lender to U.S. Base Rate Loans, Canadian Base Rate Loans, U.K. Base Rate Loans or German Base Rate Loans (which alternative to prepayment aforesaid shall only be applicable in relation to any LIBOR Loans of such Lenders to the U.K. Borrower or a German Borrower, in each case, in the case of any such LIBOR Loans denominated in Dollars), or all Canadian BA Rate Loans to Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as applicable, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans or Canadian BA Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans or Canadian BA Rate Loans.  Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the applicable Borrower(s) with respect to such Loans shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.
3.fInability to Determine Rates.  (a) If the U.S. Required Lenders, with respect to U.S. Revolver Loans, or the U.S. Required Term Lenders, with respect to Term Loans, or the Canadian Required Lenders, with respect to Canadian Revolver Loans, or the U.K. Required Lenders, with respect to U.K. Revolver Loans, or the German Required Lenders, with respect to German Revolver Loans, notify Agent for any reason in connection with a request for a Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, a LIBOR Loan or a Canadian BA Rate Loan that (ai) deposits or bankers’ acceptances in the relevant Available Currency are not being offered to, as regards LIBOR, banks in the London interbank eurocurrency market or, as regards Canadian BA Rate, Persons in Canada, for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Loan, (bii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining LIBOR or the Canadian BA Rate for the requested Interest Period, or (ciii) LIBOR or the Canadian BA Rate for the requested Interest Period does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, then Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower Agent and each Applicable Lender (or Lenders with outstanding Term Loans if related to Term Loans).  Thereafter, the obligation of the Applicable Lenders (or Lenders with Term Loan Commitments or outstanding Term Loans if related to the Term Loans) to make or maintain the affected LIBOR Loans or Canadian BA Rate Loans shall be suspended until Agent (upon instruction by the U.S. Required Lenders, U.S. Required Term Lenders, Canadian Required Lenders, U.K. Required Lenders or German Required Lenders, as applicable) revokes such notice.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower Agent may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of a LIBOR Loan or a Canadian BA Rate Loan or, failing that, will be deemed to have submitted a request for a U.S. Base Rate Loan, a Canadian Prime Rate Loan, a U.K. Base 








Rate Loan or a German Base Rate Loan (but in the case of any such pending request in relation to a LIBOR Loan for the U.K. Borrower or a German Borrower, if (aA) that LIBOR Loan was denominated in British Pounds, Swiss Francs or Euros, the Borrower Agent shall be deemed to have revoked any such pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of that LIBOR Loan, and the U.K. Borrower or German Borrower, as applicable, shall repay any such outstanding LIBOR Loan which was the subject of a continuation request, and (bB) only if that LIBOR Loan was denominated in Dollars shall the Borrower Agent be deemed to have submitted a request for a U.K. Base Rate Loan or German Base Rate Loan, as applicable).
(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, solely with respect to Loans funded in Dollars:
(i)     On March 5, 2021 the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), the regulatory supervisor of LIBOR’s administrator (“IBA”), announced in a public statement the future cessation or loss of representativeness of overnight/Spot Next, 1-week, 1-month, 2-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12- month U.S. dollar LIBOR tenor settings. On the earliest of (A) the date that all Available Tenors of U.S dollar LIBOR have permanently or indefinitely ceased to be provided by IBA or have been announced by the FCA pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative, (B) June 30, 2023 and (C) the Early Opt-in Effective Date in respect of a SOFR Early Opt-in, if the then-current Benchmark is LIBOR, the Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.
(ii)    (x)  Upon (A) the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or (B) a determination by the Agent that neither of the alternatives under clause (1) of the definition of Benchmark Replacement are available, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Applicable Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders (and any such objection shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error). 
(y)  On the Early Opt-in Effective Date in respect of an Other Rate Early Opt-in, the Benchmark Replacement will replace LIBOR for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.   
(iii)    At any time that the administrator of the then-current Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to provide such Benchmark or such Benchmark has been announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored, the Borrowers may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Loans to be made, converted or continued that would bear interest by reference to such Benchmark until the Borrower Agent’s receipt of notice from the Agent that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Benchmark, and, failing that, the Borrowers will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to 








Base Rate Loans. During the period referenced in the foregoing sentence, the component of U.S. Base Rate based upon the Benchmark will not be used in any determination of U.S. Base Rate.
(iv)     In connection with the implementation and administration of a Benchmark Replacement, the Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.     
(v)    The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower Agent and the Lenders of (A) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (B) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Agent pursuant to this Section 3.6(b), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.6(b).  
(vi)    At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (A) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or LIBOR), then the Agent may remove any tenor of such Benchmark that is unavailable or non-representative for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings and (B) the Agent may reinstate any such previously removed tenor for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings.
3.gIncreased Costs; Capital Adequacy.
3.7.i.Change in Law.  If any Change in Law shall:
(14)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in LIBOR or the Canadian BA Rate) or any Issuing Bank;
(15)subject any Lender or any Issuing Bank to any Tax with respect to any Loan, Loan Document, Letter of Credit or participation in LC Obligations, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or such Issuing Bank in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 5.9 (or would be covered by Section 5.9 but for exclusions in Sections 5.9.2(a) and 5.9.2(l)) and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank); or
(16)impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market or the Canadian bankers’ acceptances market any other condition, cost or expense affecting any Loan, Loan Document, Letter of Credit, participation in LC Obligations, or Commitment;
and the result thereof shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any LIBOR Loan or Canadian BA Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, the Borrower(s) of any Borrower Group with respect to such Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or participations in LC Obligations) will 








pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
3.7.ii.Capital Adequacy.  If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Issuing Bank or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s, such Issuing Bank’s or holding company’s capital as a consequence of this Agreement, or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or participations in LC Obligations, to a level below that which such Lender, such Issuing Bank or holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s, such Issuing Bank’s and holding company’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers (or the applicable Borrower(s) of any Borrower Group with respect to such Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or participations in LC Obligations) will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it or its holding company for any such reduction suffered.
3.7.iii.Compensation.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of its right to demand such compensation, but the Borrower(s) of any Borrower Group shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank notifies the Borrower Agent of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
3.hMitigation.  If any Lender gives a notice under Section 3.5 or requests compensation under Section 3.7, or if the Borrower(s) of any Borrower Group are required to pay additional amounts with respect to a Lender under Section 5.9, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (a) would eliminate the need for such notice or reduce amounts payable or to be withheld in the future, as applicable; and (b) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or unlawful.  The Borrower(s) of each affected Borrower Group shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender that has issued a Commitment to such Borrower Group in connection with any such designation or assignment.
3.iFunding Losses.  If for any reason (other than default by a Lender) (a) any Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, a LIBOR Loan or a Canadian BA Rate Loan does not occur on the date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn), (b) any repayment or conversion of a LIBOR Loan or a Canadian BA Rate Loan occurs on a day other than the end of its Interest Period, (c) a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) is required to assign a LIBOR Loan or Canadian BA Rate Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period pursuant to Section 13.4, or (d) the Borrower(s) of any Borrower Group fail(s) to repay a LIBOR Loan or a Canadian BA Rate Loan when required hereunder, then such applicable Borrower(s) shall pay to Agent its customary administrative charge and to each Applicable Lender all losses and expenses that it sustains as a consequence thereof, including loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from liquidation or redeployment of funds or from fees payable to terminate deposits of matching funds but excluding the Applicable Margin.  The Lenders shall not be required to purchase deposits in the 








London interbank market or any other offshore market to fund any LIBOR Loan or to transact in bankers’ acceptances to make any Canadian BA Rate Loan, but the provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as if each Applicable Lender had purchased such deposits to fund its LIBOR Loans or Canadian BA Rate Loans, as applicable.
3.jMaximum Interest.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by Applicable Law (“maximum rate”).  If Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the maximum rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Obligations of the Borrower Group to which such excess interest relates or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to such Borrower Group.  In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by Agent or a Lender exceeds the maximum rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest; (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.10, if any provision of any of the Loan Documents would obligate any Canadian Domiciled Obligor to make any payment of interest with respect to the Canadian Facility Obligations in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by Applicable Law or would result in the receipt of interest with respect to the Canadian Facility Obligations at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then, notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rates 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 so result in a receipt by the applicable recipient of interest with respect to the Canadian Facility Obligations at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, as follows:  (i) first, by reducing the amount or rates of interest required to be paid by the Canadian Domiciled Obligors to the applicable recipient under the Loan Documents; and (ii) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid by the Canadian Domiciled Obligors to the applicable recipient which would constitute interest with respect to the Canadian Facility Obligations for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if the applicable recipient shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by that section of the Criminal Code (Canada), then the Canadian Domiciled Obligors shall be entitled, by notice in writing to Agent, to obtain reimbursement from the applicable recipient in an amount equal to such excess, and, pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by the applicable recipient to the applicable Canadian Domiciled Obligor.  Any amount or rate of interest with respect to the Canadian Facility Obligations referred to in this Section 3.10 shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term that any Loans to the Canadian Borrower remain 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 Original Agreement Closing Date to the date of Full Payment of the Canadian Facility Obligations, and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by Agent shall be conclusive for the purposes of such determination.
1.aTerms Applicable to Alternative Currency Loans.  From and after the Fifth Amendment to Fourth Amended and Restated Effective Date, notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, the parties hereto agree as follows with respect to the Alternative Currencies (it being understood that, for the avoidance of doubt, to the extent provisions in this Agreement (other than this Section 3.11) apply to the Alternative Currencies and such provisions are not specifically addressed by this Section 3.11, the provisions

2.References to LIBOR and LIBOR Loans in this Agreement and Loan Documents.
(1)References to LIBOR and LIBOR Loans in provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that relate to Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies and that are not specifically addressed in this Section 3.11 (and the definitions of the defined terms used in this Section 3.11 (other than the definitions of LIBOR and LIBOR Loan)) shall be deemed to include Alternative Currency Daily Rates, Alternative Currency Term Rates, and Alternative Currency Loans, as applicable.
(2)For purposes of any requirement for the Borrowers to compensate Lenders for losses in this Agreement resulting from any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Alternative Currency Loan on a day other than the last day of any Interest Period, references to the Interest Period shall be deemed to include any relevant interest payment date or payment period for an Alternative Currency Loan.

Each such Notice of Borrowing must be received by the Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. three Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing or, in the case of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, any continuation.  Each Borrowing of or continuation of Alternative Currency Loans shall be in (i) a minimum principal amount of, in the case of Alternative Currency Loans denominated in (x) British Pounds, £1,000,000, (y) Swiss Francs, 








CHF1,000,000 or (z) Euros, Euros 1,000,000 or (ii) an increment of, in the case of Alternative Currency Loans denominated in (x) British Pounds, £1,000,000, (y) Swiss Francs, CHF1,000,000 or, (z) Euros, Euros 1,000,000, in excess thereof.  Each Notice of Borrowing shall specify (i) whether the Borrower is requesting a Borrowing or a continuation of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the currency and principal amount of Loans to be borrowed or continued, (iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed, and (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto.  If the Borrower fails to specify a currency in a Loan Notice requesting a Borrowing, then the Loans so requested shall be made in Dollars.  If the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Notice of Borrowing or if such Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a continuation, then the applicable Loans shall be made as Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars; provided, however, that in the case of a failure to timely request a continuation of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, such Loans shall be continued as Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans in their original currency with an Interest Period of one (1) month.  If the Borrower requests a Borrowing of or continuation of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans in any such Notice of Borrowing, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.  Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, no Alternative Currency Loan may be converted into or continued as a Loan denominated in a different currency, but instead must be repaid in the original currency of such Alternative Currency Loan and reborrowed in the other currency. 
(4)Conforming Changes.  With respect to any Alternative Currency Rate, Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided, that, with respect to any such amendment effected, Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such Conforming Changes to Borrower Agent and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.
(5)Notice of Borrowing. For purposes of a Borrowing of Alternative Currency Loans, or a continuation of and Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan, Borrower Agent shall use a Notice of Borrowing.
3.Interest.
(6)Subject to the provisions hereof with respect to default interest, (x) each Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Alternative Currency Daily Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and (y) each Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Alternative Currency Term Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin.
(7)Interest on each Alternative Currency Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified in this Agreement.  Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any debtor relief law.
(1)Computations.  All computations of interest for Alternative Currency Loans (other than Alternative Currency Loans with respect to SARON) shall be made on the 








basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed, or, in the case of interest in respect of Alternative Currency Loans as to which market practice differs from the foregoing, in accordance with such market practice.  All other computations of fees and interest with respect to Alternative Currency Loans determined by reference to SARON shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year).  Interest shall accrue on each Alternative Currency Loan for the day on which the Alternative Currency Loan is made, and shall not accrue on an Alternative Currency Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Alternative Currency Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Alternative Currency Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to the terms hereof, bear interest for one day.  Each determination by the Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(2)Inability to Determine Rate; Successor Rates. 
    (i)    Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 3.11(g), those Lenders that either have not made, or do not have an obligation hereunder to make, the relevant Loans in the relevant Alternative Currency shall be excluded from any determination of Required Lenders.
    (ii)    Inability to Determine Rates.  If in connection with any request for an Alternative Currency Loan or a continuation of any of such Loans, as applicable, (A) Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (x) no Successor Rate for the Relevant Rate for the applicable currency has been determined in accordance with Section 3.11(g)(iii) and the circumstances under clause (x) of Section 3.11(g)(iii) or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred with respect to such Relevant Rate (as applicable), or (y) adequate and reasonable means do not otherwise exist for determining the Relevant Rate for the applicable currency for any determination date(s) or requested Interest Period, as applicable, with respect to a proposed Alternative Currency Loan, or (B) Agent or the Required Lenders determine for any reason that the Relevant Rate with respect to a proposed Loan denominated in a currency for any requested Interest Period or determination date(s) does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower Agent and each Lender.  Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Loans in the affected currencies, as applicable, shall be suspended in each case to the extent of the affected Alternative Currency Loans or Interest Period or determination date(s), as applicable, in each case until Agent (or, in the case of a determination by the Required Lenders described in clause (B) of this Section, until Agent upon instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice.
    Upon receipt of such notice, (A) the Borrower Agent may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, or continuation of Alternative Currency Loans to the extent of the affected Alternative Currency Loans or Interest Period or determination date(s), as applicable or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount specified therein and (B) any outstanding affected Alternative Currency Loans, at the Borrower’s election, shall either (1) be converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such outstanding Alternative Currency Loan immediately, in the case of an Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loan or at the end of the applicable Interest Period, in the case of an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan or (2) be prepaid in full immediately, in the case of an Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loan, or at the end of the applicable Interest Period, in the case of an Alternative Currency 








Term Rate Loan; provided that if no election is made by the Borrower Agent (x) in the case of an Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loan, by the date that is three Business Days after receipt by the Borrower Agent of such notice or (y) in the case of an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan, by the last day of the current Interest Period for the applicable Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan, the Borrower Agent shall be deemed to have elected clause (1) above.
    (iii)    Replacement of Relevant Rate or Successor Rate.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Borrower Agent or Required Lenders notify Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Borrower Agent) that the Borrower Agent or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:
    (x)    adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Relevant Rate for an Alternative Currency because none of the tenors of such Relevant Rate (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) is available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or
    (y)    the Applicable Authority has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which all tenors of the Relevant Rate for an Alternative Currency (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) shall or will no longer be representative or made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans denominated in such Alternative Currency, or shall or will otherwise cease, provided that, in each case, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to Agent that will continue to provide such representative tenor(s) of the Relevant Rate for such Alternative Currency (the latest date on which all tenors of the Relevant Rate for such Alternative Currency (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) are no longer representative or available permanently or indefinitely, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”);  or
    (z)    syndicated loans currently being executed and agented in the United States, are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace the Relevant Rate for an Alternative Currency; 
or if  the events or circumstances of the type described in Section 3.11(g)(iii)(x), (iii)(y) or (iii)(z) have occurred with respect to the Successor Rate then in effect, then, Agent and the Borrowers may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing the Relevant Rate for an Alternative Currency or any then current Successor Rate for an Alternative Currency in accordance with this Section 3.11(g)(iii) with an alternative benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar credit facilities syndicated and agented in the United States and denominated in such Alternative Currency for such alternative benchmarks, and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar credit facilities syndicated and agented in the United States and denominated in such Alternative Currency for such benchmarks, which adjustment or method for calculating such adjustment shall be published on an information service as selected by Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion and may be periodically updated (and any such proposed rate, including for the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment thereto, a “Successor Rate”), and any 








such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower Agent unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to Agent written notice that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. 
    Agent will promptly (in one or more notices) notify the Borrower Agent and each Lender of the implementation of any Successor Rate.
    Any Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for Agent, such Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by Agent.
    Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, if at any time any Successor Rate as so determined would otherwise be less than zero, the Successor Rate will be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
    In connection with the implementation of a Successor Rate, Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement; provided, that, with respect to any such amendment effected, Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such Conforming Changes to the Borrower Agent and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.
Section 4.LOAN ADMINISTRATION
4.aManner of Borrowing and Funding Revolver Loans.
4.1.i.Notice of Borrowing.  
(1)Whenever Borrowers within a Borrower Group desire funding of a Borrowing of Revolver Loans, Borrower Agent shall give Agent a Notice of Borrowing.  Such notice must be received by Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (i) on the Business Day of the requested funding date, in the case of U.S. Base Rate Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans, or Canadian Base Rate Loans, (ii) on the Business Day prior to the requested funding date, in the case of U.K. Base Rate Loans or German Base Rate Loans, and (iii) at least three Business Days prior (and at least four Business Days in the case of a U.K. Revolver Loan or a German Revolver Loan) to the requested funding date, in the case of LIBOR Loans or Canadian BA Rate Loans.  Notices received after 11:00 a.m. shall be deemed received on the next Business Day.  Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) the amount of the Borrowing, (B) the requested funding date (which must be a Business Day), (C) whether the Borrowing is to be made as a U.S. Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Loan (in the case of a Borrowing by the U.S. Borrowers), or as a Canadian Base Rate Loan, a Canadian Prime Rate Loan, LIBOR Loan, or a Canadian BA Rate Loan (in the case of a Borrowing by the Canadian Borrower), or as a U.K. Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Loan (in the case of a Borrowing by the U.K. Borrower), or as a German Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Loan (in the case of a Borrowing by a German Borrower),  (D) in the case of LIBOR Loans or Canadian BA Rate Loans, the duration of the applicable Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be 30 days if not specified), (E) in the case of a Borrowing by the Canadian Borrower, whether such Loan is to be denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars, and (F) in the case of a Borrowing by the U.K. Borrower or a German 








Borrower, in the case of LIBOR Loans only, whether such Loan is to be denominated in Dollars, British Pounds, Swiss Francs or Euros.
(2)Unless payment is otherwise timely made by Borrowers within a Borrower Group, the becoming due of any amount required to be paid with respect to any of the Obligations of the Obligor Group to which such Borrower Group belongs (whether principal, interest, fees or other charges, including Extraordinary Expenses, LC Obligations, Cash Collateral and Secured Bank Product Obligations) shall be deemed to be a request for Revolver Loans by such Borrower Group on the due date, in the amount of such Obligations and shall bear interest at the per annum rate applicable hereunder to U.S. Base Rate Revolver Loans, in the case of such Obligations owing by any U.S. Facility Obligor, or to Canadian Prime Rate Loans, in the case of such Obligations owing by a Canadian Domiciled Obligor, or to U.K. Base Rate Loans, in the case of such Obligations owing by a U.K. Domiciled Obligor, or to German Base Rate Loans, in the case of such Obligations owing by a German Domiciled Obligor.  The proceeds of such Revolver Loans shall be disbursed as direct payment of the relevant Obligation.  In addition, Agent may, at its option, charge such Obligations of an Obligor Group against any operating, investment or other account of an Obligor within such Obligor Group maintained with Agent or any of its Affiliates.
(3)If Borrowers within a Borrower Group establish a controlled disbursement account with Agent or any branch or Affiliate of Agent, then the presentation for payment of any check, ACH or electronic debit, or other payment item at a time when there are insufficient funds to cover it shall be deemed to be a request for Revolver Loans by such Borrower Group on the date of such presentation, in the amount of such payment item, and shall bear interest at the per annum rate applicable hereunder to U.S. Base Rate Revolver Loans, in the case of insufficient funds owing by any U.S. Facility Obligor, or to Canadian Prime Rate Loans, in the case of insufficient funds owing by a Canadian Domiciled Obligor, or to U.K. Base Rate Loans, in the case of insufficient funds owing by a U.K. Domiciled Obligor, or to German Base Rate Loans, in the case of insufficient funds owing by a German Domiciled Obligor.  The proceeds of such Revolver Loans may be disbursed directly to the controlled disbursement account or other appropriate account.
(4)Whenever U.S. Borrowers desire funding of the Borrowing of the Term Loans, Borrower Agent shall give Agent a Notice of Borrowing.  Such notice must be received by Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (i) at least two (2) Business Days prior to the requested funding date in the case of Base Rate Term Loans and (ii) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested funding date in the case of LIBOR Term Loans.  Notices received after 11:00 a.m. shall be deemed received on the next Business Day.  Any such Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable (subject to the last sentence of this Section 4.1.1(d)) and shall specify (A) the amount of the Term Loans to be borrowed (subject to the limits set forth herein), (B) the requested funding date (which must be a Business Day), (C) whether the Borrowing is to be made as a Base Rate Term Loan or a LIBOR Term Loan, and (D) in the case of LIBOR Term Loans, the duration of the applicable Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be 30 days if not specified).   Notwithstanding the foregoing, a request for a Base Rate Term Loan (a “Base Rate Term Loan Request”) meeting the foregoing requirements may be conditioned by U.S. Borrowers on a material event occurring, provided, that, Agent must receive notice no later than 11:00 a.m. on the requested funding date on whether such material event has, or shall be deemed to have, occurred (a “Material Event Confirmation”)  (it being understood that to the extent Agent does not receive a Material Event Confirmation by such time, the corresponding Base Rate Term Loan Request shall be deemed null and void).
4.1.ii.Fundings by Lenders.  








(5)Each Applicable Lender shall timely honor its Revolver Commitment by funding its Pro Rata share of each Borrowing of Revolver Loans that is properly requested hereunder.  Except for Borrowings to be made as Swingline Loans, Agent shall endeavor to notify the Applicable Lenders of each Notice of Borrowing (or deemed request for a Borrowing) by 12:00 noon (Applicable Time Zone) on the proposed funding date (and by 12:00 p.m. (Applicable Time Zone) on the Business Day prior to the proposed funding date, in the case of U.K. Base Rate Loans and German Base Rate Loans) for U.S. Base Rate Loans, Canadian Base Rate Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans, U.K. Base Rate Loans or German Base Rate Loans, or by 3:00 p.m. (Applicable Time Zone) at least two Business Days before any proposed funding of LIBOR Loans or Canadian BA Rate Loans.  Each Applicable Lender shall fund to Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the Borrowing to the account specified by Agent in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. (Applicable Time Zone) on the requested funding date, unless Agent’s notice is received after the times provided above, in which case Lender shall fund its Pro Rata share by 11:00 a.m. (Applicable Time Zone) on the next Business Day.  Subject to its receipt of such amounts from the Applicable Lenders, Agent shall disburse the proceeds of the Revolver Loans as directed by Borrower Agent.  Unless Agent shall have received (in sufficient time to act) written notice from an Applicable Lender that it does not intend to fund its Pro Rata share of a Borrowing, Agent may assume that such Lender has deposited or promptly will deposit its share with Agent, and Agent may disburse a corresponding amount to the applicable Borrower(s).  If an Applicable Lender’s share of any Borrowing or of any settlement pursuant to Section 4.1.3(b) is not received by Agent, then the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group agree to repay to Agent on demand the amount of such share, together with interest thereon from the date disbursed until repaid, at the rate applicable to such Borrowing.
(6)Each U.S. Lender shall timely honor its Term Loan Commitment by funding its Pro Rata share of the Term Loans that are properly requested hereunder.  Agent shall endeavor to notify the U.S. Lenders with Term Loan Commitments of any Notice of Borrowing to request the Term Loans by 12:00 noon (Pacific time) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed funding date.  Each U.S. Lender with a Term Loan Commitment shall fund to Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the Borrowing to the account specified by Agent in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. (Pacific time) on the requested funding date.  Subject to its receipt of such amounts from such U.S. Lenders, Agent shall disburse the proceeds of the Term Loans as directed by Borrower Agent.  Unless Agent shall have received (in sufficient time to act) written notice from a U.S. Lender with a Term Loan Commitment that it does not intend to fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing, Agent may assume that such U.S. Lender has deposited or promptly will deposit its share with Agent, and Agent may disburse a corresponding amount to the applicable U.S. Borrower(s).  If a U.S. Lender’s share of any such Borrowing is not received by Agent, then the U.S. Borrowers agree to repay to Agent on demand the amount of such share, together with interest thereon from the date disbursed until repaid, at the rate applicable to such Borrowing.
4.1.i.Swingline Loans; Settlement.
(7)Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, advance U.S. Swingline Loans to the U.S. Borrowers, up to an aggregate outstanding amount equal to 10% of the aggregate U.S. Revolver Commitments, unless the funding is specifically required to be made by all U.S. Lenders hereunder.  Each U.S. Swingline Loan shall constitute a U.S. Base Rate Revolver Loan for all purposes, except that payments thereon shall be made to Agent for its own account.  The obligation of the U.S. Borrowers to repay U.S. Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by the records of Agent and need not be evidenced by any promissory note.  Agent (acting through its Canada branch) may, but shall not be obligated to, advance Canadian Swingline Loans to the Canadian Borrower, up to an aggregate outstanding amount equal to 10% of the aggregate Canadian Revolver Commitments, unless the funding is specifically required to be made by all Canadian Lenders hereunder.  Each Canadian Swingline Loan shall constitute a Canadian Prime 








Rate Revolver Loan or a Canadian Base Rate Loan, as applicable, for all purposes, except that payments thereon shall be made to Agent (acting through its Canada branch) for its own account.  The obligation of the Canadian Borrower to repay Canadian Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by the records of Agent (acting through its Canada branch) and need not be evidenced by any promissory note.  Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, advance U.K. Swingline Loans to the U.K. Borrower, up to an aggregate outstanding amount equal to 10% of the aggregate U.K. Revolver Commitments, unless the funding is specifically required to be made by all U.K. Lenders hereunder.  Each U.K. Swingline Loan shall be made in and denominated only in Dollars, and shall constitute a U.K. Base Rate Loan for all purposes, except that payments thereon shall be made to Agent for its own account.  The obligation of the U.K. Borrower to repay U.K. Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by the records of Agent and need not be evidenced by any promissory note.  Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, advance German Swingline Loans to the German Borrower, up to an aggregate outstanding amount equal to 10% of the aggregate German Revolver Commitments, unless the funding is specifically required to be made by all German Lenders hereunder.  Each German Swingline Loan shall be made in and denominated only in Dollars, and shall constitute a German Base Rate Loan for all purposes, except that payments thereon shall be made to Agent for its own account.  The obligation of the German Borrower to repay German Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by the records of Agent and need not be evidenced by any promissory note.
(8)Settlement of Swingline Loans and other Revolver Loans among Lenders and Agent shall take place on a date determined from time to time by Agent (but at least weekly),  in accordance with the Settlement Report delivered by Agent to Lenders.  Between settlement dates, Agent may in its discretion apply payments on Revolver Loans to Swingline Loans, regardless of any designation by any Borrower or any provision herein to the contrary.  Each Lender’s obligation to make settlements with Agent is absolute and unconditional, without offset, counterclaim or other defense, and whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied.  If, due to an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to a Borrower or otherwise, any U.S. Swingline Loan may not be settled among the U.S. Lenders hereunder, then each U.S. Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from Agent a Pro Rata participation in such Loan and shall transfer the amount of such participation to Agent, in immediately available funds, within one Business Day after Agent’s request therefor.  If, due to an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to a Borrower or otherwise, any Canadian Swingline Loan may not be settled among the Canadian Lenders hereunder, then each Canadian Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from Agent a Pro Rata participation in such Loan and shall transfer the amount of such participation to Agent, in immediately available funds, within one Business Day after Agent’s request therefore.  If, due to an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to a Borrower or otherwise, any U.K. Swingline Loan may not be settled among the U.K. Lenders hereunder, then each U.K. Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from Agent a Pro Rata participation in such Loan and shall transfer the amount of such participation to Agent, in immediately available funds, within one Business Day after Agent’s request therefore.  If, due to an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to a Borrower or otherwise, any German Swingline Loan may not be settled among the German Lenders hereunder, then each German Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from Agent a Pro Rata participation in such Loan and shall transfer the amount of such participation to Agent, in immediately available funds, within one Business Day after Agent’s request therefore.
4.1.iii.Notices.  Borrowers may request, convert or continue Loans, select interest rates and transfer funds based on telephonic or e-mailed instructions to Agent.  Borrowers shall confirm each such request by prompt delivery to Agent of a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, if applicable, but if it differs materially from the action taken by Agent or Lenders, the records of Agent and Lenders shall govern.  Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability for any loss suffered by a Borrower as a result of Agent or any Lender acting upon its understanding of telephonic or e-mailed instructions from a person believed in good 








faith by Agent or any Lender to be a person authorized to give such instructions on a Borrower’s behalf.
4.bDefaulting Lender.
4.2.i.Reallocation of Pro Rata Share; Amendments.  For purposes of determining Lenders’ obligations to fund or participate in Loans or Letters of Credit, Agent may exclude the Commitments and Loans of any Defaulting Lender(s) from the calculation of Pro Rata shares.  A Defaulting Lender shall have no right to vote on any amendment, waiver or other modification of a Loan Document, except as provided in Section 14.1.1(c).
4.2.ii.Payments; Fees.  Agent may, in its discretion, receive and retain any amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender under the Loan Documents, and a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have assigned to Agent such amounts until all Obligations owing to Agent, non-Defaulting Lenders and other Secured Parties have been paid in full.  Agent may apply such amounts to the Defaulting Lender’s defaulted obligations, use the funds to Cash Collateralize such Lender’s Fronting Exposure, or readvance the amounts, in accordance with this Agreement, to the Borrowers of the Borrower Group to which such defaulted obligations relate.  A Lender shall not be entitled to receive any fees accruing hereunder during the period in which it is a Defaulting Lender, and the unfunded portion of its Commitment shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating the unused line fees under Section 3.2.1.  If any LC Obligations owing to a Defaulted Lender are reallocated to other Lenders, fees attributable to such LC Obligations under Section 3.2.2, Section 3.2.3, and Section 3.2.4, as applicable, shall be paid to such Lenders.  Agent shall be paid all fees attributable to LC Obligations that are not reallocated.
4.2.iii.Cure.  Borrowers, Agent and Issuing Banks may agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender.  At such time, Pro Rata shares shall be reallocated without exclusion of such Lender’s Commitments and Loans, and all outstanding Revolver Loans, LC Obligations and other exposures under the Revolver Commitments shall be reallocated among Lenders and settled by Agent (with appropriate payments by the reinstated Lender) in accordance with the readjusted Pro Rata shares.  Unless expressly agreed by Borrowers, Agent and Issuing Banks, or as expressly provided herein with respect to Bail-In Actions and related matters, no reinstatement of a Defaulting Lender shall constitute a waiver or release of claims against such Lender.  The failure of any Lender to fund a Loan, to make a payment in respect of LC Obligations or otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations, and no Lender shall be responsible for default by another Lender.
4.cNumber and Amount of LIBOR Loans and Canadian BA Rate Loans; Determination of Rate.  
4.3.i.With respect to the U.S. Borrowers, (a) no more than 10 Borrowings of LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at any time, and all LIBOR Loans to U.S. Borrowers having the same length and beginning date of their Interest Periods shall be aggregated together and considered one Borrowing for this purpose, and (b) each Borrowing of LIBOR Loans when made, continued or converted shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 or an increment of $1,000,000, in excess thereof.  
4.3.ii.With respect to the Canadian Borrower, (a) no more than 5 Borrowings of LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at any time, and all LIBOR Loans having the same length and beginning date of their Interest Periods shall be aggregated together and considered one Borrowing for this purpose, (b) no more than 5 Borrowings of Canadian BA Rate Loans may be outstanding at any time, and all Canadian BA Rate Loans having the same length and beginning date of their Interest Periods shall be aggregated together and considered one Borrowing for this purpose, and (c) each Borrowing of such Loans when made, continued or converted shall be in a

4.3.iii.With respect to the U.K. Borrower, (a) no more than 5 Borrowings of  LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at any time, and all LIBOR Loans having the same length and beginning date of their Interest Periods and in the same Available Currency shall be aggregated together and considered one Borrowing for this purpose, and (b) each Borrowing of such Loans when made, continued or converted shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 (or, in the case of LIBOR Loans denominated in British Pounds, £1,000,000 or, in the case of LIBOR Loans denominated in Euros, Euros 1,000,000) or an increment of $1,000,000 (or, in the case of LIBOR Loans denominated in British Pounds, £1,000,000 or, in the case of LIBOR Loans denominated in Euros, Euros 1,000,000), in excess thereof. 
4.3.iv.With respect to the German Borrower, (a) no more than 5 Borrowings of  LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at any time, and all LIBOR Loans having the same length and beginning date of their Interest Periods and in the same Available Currency shall be aggregated together and considered one Borrowing for this purpose, and (b) each Borrowing of such Loans when made, continued or converted shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 (or, in the case of LIBOR Loans denominated in (x) British Pounds, £1,000,000, (y) Swiss Francs, CHF1,000,000 or (z) Euros, Euros 1,000,000) or an increment of $1,000,000 (or, in the case of LIBOR Loans denominated in (x) British Pounds, £1,000,000, (y) Swiss Francs, CHF1,000,000 or, (z) Euros, Euros 1,000,000), in excess thereof.  
4.3.v.Upon determining LIBOR or the Canadian BA Rate for any Interest Period requested by the Borrower Agent on behalf of a Borrower Group, Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower Agent thereof by telephone or electronically and, if requested by the Borrower Agent, shall confirm any telephonic notice in writing. 
4.dBorrower Agent.  Each Borrower and other Obligor hereby designates Callaway Golf Company, a Delaware corporation (“Borrower Agent”) as its representative and agent for all purposes under the Loan Documents, including requests for Loans and Letters of Credit, designation of interest rates, delivery or receipt of communications, preparation and delivery of Borrowing Base and financial reports, receipt and payment of Obligations, requests for waivers, amendments or other accommodations, actions under the Loan Documents (including in respect of compliance with covenants), and all other dealings with Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender.  Borrower Agent hereby accepts such appointment.  Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any notice or communication (including any notice of borrowing) delivered by Borrower Agent on behalf of any Borrower.  Agent and Lenders may give any notice or communication with a Borrower or other Obligor hereunder to Borrower Agent on behalf of such Borrower or other Obligor.  Each of Agent, Issuing Banks and Lenders shall have the right, in its discretion, to deal exclusively with Borrower Agent for any or all purposes under the Loan Documents.

4.eOne Obligation.  The Loans, LC Obligations and other Obligations of the applicable Borrower(s) of each Borrower Group and their respective Guarantors shall constitute one general obligation of such Borrower(s) of such Borrower Group and their respective Guarantors and (unless otherwise expressly provided in any Loan Document) shall be secured by Agent’s Lien upon all Collateral of such Borrower(s) of such Borrower Group and their respective Guarantors; provided, however, that each Credit Party shall be deemed to be a creditor of, and the holder of a separate claim against, each Borrower or other Obligor to the extent of

Notwithstanding Full Payment of the Obligations, Agent shall not be required to terminate its Liens in any Collateral unless, with respect to any damages Agent may incur as a result of the dishonor or return of Payment Items applied to Obligations, Agent receives (a) a written agreement satisfactory to Agent, executed by Borrowers and any Person whose advances are used in whole or in part to satisfy the Obligations, indemnifying Agent and Lenders from such damages; and (b) such Cash Collateral as Agent, in its discretion, deems appropriate to protect against such damages.  Sections 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 3.4, 3.6, 3.7, 3.9, 5.5, 5.9, 5.10, 12, 14.2 and this Section, and the obligation of each Obligor and Lender with respect to each indemnity given by it in any Loan Document, shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations and any release relating to this credit facility.

5.6.ii.General Application Provisions.  Amounts shall be applied to each category of Obligations set forth above until Full Payment thereof and then to the next category.  If amounts are insufficient to satisfy a category, they shall be applied on a pro rata basis among the Obligations in the category.  Amounts distributed with respect to any Secured Bank Product Obligations shall be the lesser of the maximum Secured Bank Product Obligations last reported to Agent or the actual Secured Bank Product Obligations as calculated by the methodology reported to Agent for determining the amount due.  Monies and proceeds obtained from an Obligor shall not be applied to its Excluded Swap Obligations, but appropriate adjustments shall be made with respect to amounts obtained from other Obligors to preserve the allocations in any applicable category.  Agent shall have no obligation to calculate the amount to be distributed with respect to any Secured Bank Product Obligations, and may request a reasonably detailed calculation of such amount from the applicable Secured Party.  If a Secured Party fails to deliver such calculation within five days following request by Agent, Agent may assume the amount to be distributed is the last reported amount.  The allocations set forth in this Section are solely to determine the rights and priorities of Agent and Secured Parties as among themselves, and may be changed by agreement among them without the consent of any Obligor.  This Section is not for the benefit of or enforceable by any Borrower.
5.6.iii.Erroneous Application.  Agent shall not be liable for any application of amounts made by it in good faith and, if any such application is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender or other Person to which such amount should have been made shall be to recover the amount from the Person that actually received it (and, if such amount was received by any Lender, such Lender hereby agrees to return it).

The ledger balance in the main Dominion Account of the U.S. Borrowers as of the end of a Business Day shall be applied to the Obligations of the U.S. Borrowers at the beginning of the next Business Day, during any Dominion Trigger Period.  If, at the end of a Business Day, after giving effect to such application, if any, a credit balance exists, the balance shall not accrue interest in favor of the U.S. Borrowers and shall be made available to the U.S. Borrowers as long as the Obligations have not been accelerated on account of an Event of Default.  During any Dominion Trigger Period, each U.S. Borrower and other Obligor irrevocably waive the right to direct the application of any payments or Collateral proceeds, and agree that Agent shall have the continuing, exclusive right to apply and reapply same against the Obligations, in such manner as Agent deems advisable.
5.7.ii.Dominion Account(s) of Canadian Borrower.  The ledger balance in the main Dominion Account of the Canadian Borrower as of the end of a Business Day shall be applied to the Obligations of the Canadian Borrower at the beginning of the next Business Day, during any Dominion Trigger Period.

During any Dominion Trigger Period, the Canadian Borrower and each other Obligor irrevocably waive the right to direct the application of any payments or Collateral proceeds, and agree that Agent shall have the continuing, exclusive right to apply and reapply same against the Obligations, in such manner as Agent deems advisable.
5.7.iii.Dominion Account(s) of U.K. Borrower.  The ledger balance in the main Dominion Account of the U.K. Borrower as of the end of a Business Day occurring on and after the Closing Date shall be applied to the Obligations of the U.K. Borrower at the beginning of the next Business Day.  If, at the end of a Business Day occurring after the Closing Date, after giving 








effect to such application, if any, a credit balance exists, the balance shall not accrue interest in favor of the U.K. Borrower and shall be made available to the U.K. Borrower as long as the Obligations have not been accelerated on account of an Event of Default and in any event subject to the terms of the U.K. Security Agreements.  The U.K. Borrower and each other Obligor irrevocably waive the right to direct the application of any payments or Collateral proceeds, and agree that Agent shall have the continuing, exclusive right to apply and reapply same against the Obligations, in such manner as Agent deems advisable. 
5.7.iv.Dominion Account(s) of German  Borrower.  Commencing 90 days after the Closing Date (or such later date as Agent may approve in its sole discretion), the ledger balance in the main Dominion Account of the German Borrower as of the end of a Business Day shall be applied to the Obligations of the German Borrower at the beginning of the next Business Day, during any Dominion Trigger Period.  If, at the end of a Business Day, after giving effect to such application, if any, a credit balance exists, the balance shall not accrue interest in favor of the German Borrower and shall be made available to the German Borrower as long as the Obligations have not been accelerated on account of an Event of Default.

Any failure of Agent to record anything in any Loan Account, or any error in doing so, shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the applicable Borrower(s) to pay any amount owing hereunder.  Agent may maintain a single Loan Account in the name of the Borrower Agent, and each Borrower and other Obligor confirms that such arrangement shall have no effect on the joint and several character of its liability for the Obligations as and to the extent provided herein or in the other Loan Documents.
5.8.ii.Entries Binding.  Entries made in any Loan Account shall constitute presumptive evidence of the information contained therein.  If any information contained in the Loan Account is provided to or inspected by any Person, then such information shall be conclusive and binding on such Person for all purposes absent manifest error, except to the extent such Person notifies Agent in writing within 30 days after receipt or inspection that specific information is subject to dispute.
5.iTaxes.
5.9.i.Payments Free of Taxes.  All payments by or on behalf of any Obligor hereunder shall be free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for any Taxes.  If Applicable Law requires any Obligor or Agent to withhold or deduct any Tax (including backup withholding or withholding Tax), the withholding or deduction shall be based on information provided pursuant to Section 5.10 and Agent shall pay the amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority.  If the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Borrowers or other Obligors shall be increased so that Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank, as applicable, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received if no such withholding or deduction (including withholdings or deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) had been 








made.  In addition, Borrowers and the other Obligors shall timely pay all Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authorities.
5.9.ii.Payments Free of Tax by the U.K. Borrower.

23.the payment could have been made to the relevant Lender without a Tax Deduction if the Lender had been a U.K. Qualified Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be a U.K. Qualified Lender other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or Treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority; or
24.the relevant Lender is a U.K. Qualified Lender solely by virtue of paragraph (i)(B) of the definition of U.K. Qualified Lender; and (A) an officer of H.M.

25.the Lender is a U.K. Qualified Lender solely by virtue of paragraph (i)(B) of the definition of U.K. Qualified Lender and (A) the Lender has not given a U.K. Tax Confirmation to the U.K. Borrower; and (B) the payment could have been made to the Lender without any Tax Deduction if the Lender had given a U.K. Tax Confirmation to the U.K. Borrower, on the basis that the U.K. Tax Confirmation would have enabled the U.K. Borrower to have formed a reasonable belief that the payment was an “excepted payment” for the purposes of Section 930 of ITA; or 
26.the relevant Lender is a Treaty Lender and the U.K. Borrower making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without the Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under Section 5.9.2(d) below.

Within 30 days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction, the U.K. Borrower shall deliver to the Agent for the Lender or the Agent entitled to the payment a statement under Section 975 of ITA or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Lender or the Agent that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant taxing authority.
(9)Co-operation between a Treaty Lender and the U.K. Borrower.  A Treaty Lender and the U.K. Borrower making a payment to which that Treaty Lender is entitled shall co-operate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for U.K. Borrower to obtain authorization to make that payment without a Tax Deduction.

Nothing in Section 5.9.2(d) above shall require a Treaty Lender to: (a) register under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme; (b) apply the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to any Loan if it has so registered; or (c) file Treaty forms if it has included an indication to the effect that it wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to apply to this Agreement in accordance with Section 5.9.2(h) below or Section 5.9.2(o) below and the Obligor making that payment has complied with its obligations under Section 5.9.2(i) below or Section 5.9.2(p) below.
(11)Existing Lenders.  A U.K. Non-Bank Lender which becomes a Lender on the day on which this Agreement is entered into gives a U.K. Tax Confirmation to the U.K. Borrower by entering into this Agreement.

Where a Lender includes the indication described in Section 5.9.2(h) above in Schedule 5.9.9, the U.K. Borrower shall, to the extent that such Lender is a Lender under the facilities made available to the U.K. Borrower pursuant to Section 2.1 or Section 2.2, file a duly completed form DTTP2 in respect of such Lender with HM Revenue & Customs within 30 days of the date of this Agreement and shall promptly provide such Lender with a copy of that filing.
(15)No Filings.  If a Lender has not included an indication to the effect that it wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to apply to this Agreement in accordance with Section 5.9.2(h) above or Section 5.9.2(o) below, no Obligor shall file a form DTTP2 or any other form relating to the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme in respect of that Lender’s commitment(s) or its participation in any facility made available under this Agreement.
(16)Payment.  Obligors shall indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse (within 10 days after demand therefor) Agent, Lenders and Issuing Banks for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including those attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank, with respect to any Obligations of such Borrower’s Borrower Group, Letters of Credit of such Borrower’s Borrower Group or Loan Documents, whether or not such Taxes were properly asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority, and including all penalties, interest and reasonable expenses relating thereto, as well as any amount that a Lender or an Issuing Bank fails to pay indefeasibly to Agent under Section 5.10.  A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to Borrower Agent by Agent, or by a Lender or an Issuing Bank (with a copy to Agent), shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Obligor, Borrower Agent shall deliver to Agent a receipt from the Governmental Authority or other evidence of payment satisfactory to Agent.
(17)Payment by the U.K. Borrower.  Section 5.9.2(k) shall not apply:
11.with respect to any Tax assessed on a Lender or the Agent: (A) under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Lender or the Agent is incorporated or, if different, the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which that Lender or the Agent is treated as 








resident for tax purposes or (B) under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Lender’s or the Agent’s lending office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction, if that Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any sum deemed to be received or receivable) by that Lender or the Agent; or 
12.to the extent a loss, liability or cost: (A) is compensated for by an increased payment under Section 5.9.1 or (B) would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Section 5.9.1 but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in Section 5.9.2(a) applied.
(18)Tax Credit.  If the U.K. Borrower makes a payment under Section 5.9.1 or Section 5.9.2(k) (a “U.K. Tax Payment”) and either a Lender or the Agent determines that (i) a Tax Credit is attributable either to an increased payment of which that U.K. Tax Payment forms part, or to that U.K. Tax Payment and (ii) that Lender or the Agent has obtained, utilized and retained that Tax Credit, that Lender or the Agent shall pay an amount to the U.K. Borrower which that Lender or the Agent determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the U.K. Tax Payment not been required to be made by the U.K. Borrower. 
(19)New Lenders.  Each Lender which becomes a party to this Agreement in the capacity of a U.K. Lender after the date of this Agreement (“New Lender”) shall indicate, at the time it becomes a New Lender, on and for the benefit of the Agent and without liability to the U.K. Borrower, which of the following categories it falls in (i) not a U.K. Qualified Lender; (ii) a U.K. Qualified Lender (other than a Treaty Lender); or (iii) a Treaty Lender.  If a New Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Section 5.9.2(n) then such New Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by each Obligor) as if it is not a U.K. Qualified Lender until such time as it notifies the Agent which category applies (and the Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the U.K. Borrower).  For the avoidance of doubt, an assignment in accordance with Section 13.3 shall not be invalidated by any failure of a New Lender to comply with this Section 5.9.2(n).
(20)HMRC DT Treaty Passport schemes – New Lenders.  A New Lender that is a Treaty Lender that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and which then wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall include an indication to that effect (for the benefit of the Agent and without liability to any Obligor) in the assignment notice which it executes pursuant to, or in connection with, Section 13.3 below by including its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in that assignment notice.
(21)Form DTTP2 – New Lenders.  Where a New Lender includes the indication described in Section 5.9.2(o) above in the relevant assignment notice the U.K. Borrower shall, to the extent that that New Lender becomes a Lender under a facility which is made available to the U.K. Borrower pursuant to pursuant to Section 2.1 or Section 2.2, file a duly completed form DTTP2 in respect of such Lender with HM Revenue & Customs within 30 days of the date of that assignment and shall promptly provide the Lender with a copy of that filing.
5.9.iii.FATCA Grandfathering.  For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Third Amended Original Closing Date, the Borrowers and the Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Agent to treat) this Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).








5.jLender Tax Information.
5.10.i.Status of Lenders.  Each Lender shall deliver documentation and information to Agent and Borrower Agent, at the times and in form required by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by Agent or Borrower Agent, sufficient to permit Agent or Borrowers to determine (a) whether or not payments made with respect to Obligations are subject to Taxes, (b) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction, and (c) such Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes for such payments or otherwise to establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax purposes in the applicable jurisdiction.
5.10.ii.Documentation.  If a Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States, any Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to Agent and Borrower Agent IRS Form W-9 or such other documentation or information prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by Agent or Borrower Agent to determine whether such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  If any Foreign Lender is entitled to any exemption from or reduction of withholding tax for payments with respect to the U.S. Facility Obligations, it shall deliver to Agent and Borrower Agent, on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon request by Agent or Borrower Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), (a) IRS Form W-8BEN-E claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party; (b) IRS Form W-8ECI; (c) IRS Form W-8IMY and all required supporting documentation; (d) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, IRS Form W-8BEN-E and a certificate showing such Foreign Lender is not (i) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (ii) a “10 percent shareholder” of any Obligor within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (iii) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code; or (e) any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in withholding tax, together with such supplementary documentation necessary to allow Agent and Borrowers to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.
5.10.iii.Lender Obligations.  Each Lender and each Issuing Bank shall promptly notify Borrower Agent and Agent of any change in circumstances that would change any claimed Tax exemption or reduction.  Each Lender and each Issuing Bank, in each case severally and not jointly with the other Lenders and/or applicable Issuing Bank, shall indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse (within 10 days after demand therefor) the affected Borrower to which such Lender or such Issuing Bank (as applicable) has issued a Commitment and Agent for any Taxes, losses, claims, liabilities, penalties, interest and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by or asserted against such affected Borrower or Agent by any Governmental Authority due to such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s failure to deliver, or inaccuracy or deficiency in, any documentation required to be delivered by it pursuant to this Section.  Each Lender and each Issuing Bank authorizes Agent to set off any amounts due to Agent under this Section against any amounts payable to such Lender or such Issuing Bank under any Loan Document.
5.kGuarantee by Obligors.
5.11.i.Guarantee by U.S. Domiciled Obligors.
(22)Joint and Several Liability.  Each U.S. Domiciled Obligor agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Secured Parties the prompt payment and performance of, all Obligations and all agreements of each other Obligor under the Loan Documents, except its Excluded Swap Obligations, and that it is a U.S. Facility Guarantor, a Canadian Facility Guarantor, a German Facility Guarantor, and a U.K. Facility Guarantor hereunder.  Each U.S. Domiciled Obligor agrees that its guaranty or guarantee 








of obligations as a U.S. Facility Guarantor, a Canadian Facility Guarantor, a German Facility Guarantor, and a U.K. Facility Guarantor hereunder, as applicable, constitute a continuing guaranty or guarantee of payment and not of collection, that such obligations shall not be discharged until Full Payment of all Obligations, and that such obligations are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of (a) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability, subordination or any future modification of, or change in, any Obligations or Loan Document, or any other document, instrument or agreement to which any Obligor is or may become a party or be bound; (b) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section) or any other Loan Document, or any waiver, consent or indulgence of any kind by any Secured Party with respect thereto; (c) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect a Lien or to preserve rights against, any security or guaranty or guarantee for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by any Secured Party in respect thereof (including the release of any security or guaranty or guarantee); (d) the insolvency of any Obligor; (e) any election by Agent or any Lender in an Insolvency Proceeding for the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or similar provision of other Applicable Law; (f) any borrowing or grant of a Lien by any other Obligor, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, under other Applicable Law or otherwise; (g) the disallowance of any claims of any Secured Party against any Obligor for the repayment of any Obligations under Section 502 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, under other Applicable Law or otherwise; (h) any other insolvency, debtor relief or debt adjustment law (whether state, provincial, federal or foreign, including the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada), the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada), and the Insolvency Act 1986 of the United Kingdom and the Enterprise Act 2002 of the United Kingdom); (i) any change in the ownership, control, name, objects, businesses, assets, capital structure or constitution of any Obligor or any other person; (j) any merger, amalgamation or consolidation of any Obligor with any person or persons; (k) the occurrence of any change in the laws, rules, regulations or ordinances of any jurisdiction or by any present or future action of any governmental body or court amending, varying, reducing or otherwise affecting, or purporting to amend, vary, reduce or otherwise affect, any of the Obligations under the Loan Documents; (l) the existence of any claim, set-off, compensation or other rights which any Obligor may have at any time against any other Obligor or any other person, or which any Obligor may have at any time against the Secured Parties, whether in connection with the Loan Documents or otherwise; or (m) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, except Full Payment of all Obligations.
(23)Waivers.
27.Each U.S. Domiciled Obligor expressly waives all rights that it may have now or in the future under any statute, at common law, in equity or otherwise, to compel Agent or Lenders to marshal assets or to proceed against any Obligor, other Person or security for the payment or performance of any Obligations before, or as a condition to, proceeding against such Obligor.  Each U.S. Domiciled Obligor waives all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor other than Full Payment of all Obligations.  It is agreed among each U.S. Domiciled Obligor, Agent and Lenders that the provisions of this Section 5.11 are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents and that, but for such provisions, Agent and Lenders would decline to make Loans and issue Letters of Credit.  Each U.S. Domiciled Obligor acknowledges that its guaranty pursuant to this Section is necessary to the conduct and promotion of its business, and can be expected to benefit such business.
28.Agent and Lenders may, in their discretion, pursue such rights and remedies as they deem appropriate, including realization upon Collateral (including any Real Estate owned by any Obligor) by judicial foreclosure or non-judicial sale or enforcement, without affecting any rights and remedies under this Section 5.11.  If, in taking any action in connection with the exercise of any rights or remedies, Agent or any 








Lender shall forfeit any other rights or remedies, including the right to enter a deficiency judgment against any U.S. Domiciled Obligor or other Person, whether because of any Applicable Laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or otherwise, each U.S. Domiciled Obligor consents to such action and waives any claim based upon it, even if the action may result in loss of any rights of subrogation that any U.S. Domiciled Obligor might otherwise have had.  Any election of remedies that results in denial or impairment of the right of Agent or any Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against any U.S. Domiciled Obligor shall not impair any other U.S. Domiciled Obligor’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations.  Each U.S. Domiciled Obligor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to any security for the Obligations, even though that election of remedies destroys such U.S. Domiciled Obligor’s rights of subrogation against any other Person.  Agent may bid all or a portion of the Obligations at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale, and the amount of such bid need not be paid by Agent but shall be credited against the Obligations.  The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether Agent or any other Person is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral, and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Section 5.11, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which Agent or any Lender might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.
(24)Extent of Liability; Contribution.
13.Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each U.S. Domiciled Obligor’s liability under this Section 5.11 shall be limited to the greater of (i) all amounts for which such U.S. Domiciled Obligor is primarily liable, as described below, and (ii) such U.S. Domiciled Obligor’s Allocable Amount.
14.If any U.S. Domiciled Obligor makes a payment under this Section 5.11 of any Obligations (other than amounts for which such U.S. Domiciled Obligor is primarily liable) (a “Guarantor Payment”) that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments previously or concurrently made by any other U.S. Domiciled Obligor, exceeds the amount that such U.S. Domiciled Obligor would otherwise have paid if each U.S. Domiciled Obligor had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payments in the same proportion that such U.S. Domiciled Obligor’s Allocable Amount bore to the total Allocable Amounts of all U.S. Domiciled Obligors, then such U.S. Domiciled Obligor shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and to be reimbursed by, each other U.S. Domiciled Obligor for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment.  The “Allocable Amount” for any U.S. Domiciled Obligor shall be the maximum amount that could then be recovered from such U.S. Domiciled Obligor under this Section 5.11 without rendering such payment voidable under Section 548 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or under any similar applicable fraudulent transfer or conveyance Applicable Law, or the Applicable Law in Canada or any province or territory thereof, or in England.
15.Each U.S. Domiciled Obligor that is a Qualified ECP when its guaranty of or grant of Lien as security for a Swap Obligation becomes effective hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide funds or other support to each other U.S. Domiciled Obligor that is a Specified Obligor with respect to such Swap Obligation as may be needed by such Specified Obligor from time to time to honor all of its obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of such 








Swap Obligation (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering such Qualified ECP’s obligations and undertakings under this Section 5.11 voidable under any applicable fraudulent transfer or conveyance act).  The obligations and undertakings of each Qualified ECP under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until Full Payment of all Obligations.  Each U.S. Domiciled Obligor intends this Section to constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a guarantee of the obligations of, and a “keepwell, support or other agreement” for the benefit of, each Obligor for all purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act.
5.11.ii.Guarantee by Canadian Domiciled Obligors, German Domiciled Obligors and U.K. Domiciled Obligors.
(25)Joint and Several Liability.  Subject to Section 5.11.7 and to any Applicable Law limitations with respect to the German Domiciled Obligors, each Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor and U.K. Domiciled Obligor agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Secured Parties the prompt payment and performance of, all Canadian Facility Obligations, U.K. Facility Obligations, German Facility Obligations, and all agreements of each other Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor and U.K. Domiciled Obligor under the Loan Documents, except its Excluded Swap Obligations, and that it is a Canadian Facility Guarantor, a German Facility Guarantor and a U.K. Facility Guarantor hereunder.  Each Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor and U.K. Domiciled Obligor  agrees that its guaranty or guarantee of obligations as a Canadian Facility Guarantor, a German Facility Guarantor and a U.K. Facility Guarantor hereunder, as applicable, constitute a continuing guaranty or guarantee of payment and not of collection, that such obligations shall not be discharged until Full Payment of all Obligations, and that such obligations are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of (a) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability, subordination or any future modification of, or change in, any Obligations or Loan Document, or any other document, instrument or agreement to which any Obligor is or may become a party or be bound; (b) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section) or any other Loan Document, or any waiver, consent or indulgence of any kind by any Secured Party with respect thereto; (c) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect a Lien or to preserve rights against, any security or guaranty or guarantee for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by any Secured Party in respect thereof (including the release of any security or guaranty or guarantee); (d) the insolvency of any Obligor; (e) any election by Agent or any Lender in an Insolvency Proceeding for the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or similar provision of other Applicable Law; (f) any borrowing or grant of a Lien by any other Obligor, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, under other Applicable Law or otherwise; (g) the disallowance of any claims of any Secured Party against any Obligor for the repayment of any Obligations under Section 502 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, under other Applicable Law or otherwise; (h) any other insolvency, debtor relief or debt adjustment law (whether state, provincial, federal or foreign, including the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada), the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada), and the Insolvency Act 1986 of England and the Enterprise Act 2002 of England); (i) any change in the ownership, control, name, objects, businesses, assets, capital structure or constitution of any Obligor or any other person; (j) any merger, amalgamation or consolidation of any Obligor with any person or persons; (k) the occurrence of any change in the laws, rules, regulations or ordinances of any jurisdiction or by any present or future action of any governmental body or court amending, varying, reducing or otherwise affecting, or purporting to amend, vary, reduce or otherwise affect, any of the Obligations under the Loan Documents; (l) the existence of any claim, set-off, compensation or other rights which any Obligor may have at any time against any other Obligor or any other person, or which any Obligor may have at any time against the Secured Parties, whether in connection with the Loan Documents or otherwise; or (m) any other action or 








circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, except Full Payment of all Obligations.  
(26)Waivers.
29.Each Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor and U.K. Domiciled Obligor expressly waives all rights that it may have now or in the future under any statute, at common law, in equity or otherwise, to compel Agent or Lenders to marshal assets or to proceed against any Obligor, other Person or security for the payment or performance of any Obligations before, or as a condition to, proceeding against such Obligor.  Each Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor and U.K. Domiciled Obligor waives all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor other than Full Payment of all Obligations.  It is agreed among each Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor and U.K. Domiciled Obligor, Agent and Lenders that the provisions of this Section 5.11 are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents and that, but for such provisions, Agent and Lenders would decline to make Loans and issue Letters of Credit.  Each Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor and U.K. Domiciled Obligor acknowledges that its guaranty pursuant to this Section is necessary to the conduct and promotion of its business, and can be expected to benefit such business.
30.Agent and Lenders may, in their discretion, pursue such rights and remedies as they deem appropriate, including realization upon Collateral (including any Real Estate owned by any Obligor) by judicial foreclosure or non-judicial sale or enforcement, without affecting any rights and remedies under this Section 5.11.  If, in taking any action in connection with the exercise of any rights or remedies, Agent or any Lender shall forfeit any other rights or remedies, including the right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor or U.K. Domiciled Obligor or other Person, whether because of any Applicable Laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or otherwise, each Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor and U.K. Domiciled Obligor consents to such action and waives any claim based upon it, even if the action may result in loss of any rights of subrogation that any Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor or U.K. Domiciled Obligor might otherwise have had.  Any election of remedies that results in denial or impairment of the right of Agent or any Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against any Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor or U.K. Domiciled Obligor shall not impair any other Canadian Domiciled Obligor’s, German Domiciled Obligor’s or U.K. Domiciled Obligor’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations it is jointly and severally liable for and has guaranteed under the Loan Documents.  Each Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor and U.K. Domiciled Obligor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to any security for the Obligations, even though that election of remedies destroys such Canadian Domiciled Obligor’s, German Domiciled Obligor’s or U.K. Domiciled Obligor’s rights of subrogation against any other Person.  Agent may bid all or a portion of the Obligations at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale, and the amount of such bid need not be paid by Agent but shall be credited against the Obligations.  The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether Agent or any other Person is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral, and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Section 5.11, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which Agent or any Lender might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.








(27)Extent of Liability; Contribution.
16.Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Canadian Domiciled Obligor’s, German Domiciled Obligor’s and U.K. Domiciled Obligor’s liability under this Section 5.11 shall be limited to the greater of (i) all amounts for which such Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor or U.K. Domiciled Obligor is primarily liable, as described below, and (ii) such Canadian Domiciled Obligor’s, German Domiciled Obligor’s and U.K. Domiciled Obligor’s U.K./Canadian/German Allocable Amount.
17.If any Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor or U.K. Domiciled Obligor makes a payment under this Section 5.11 of any Obligations (other than amounts for which such Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor or U.K. Domiciled Obligor is primarily liable) (a “U.K./Canadian/German Guarantor Payment”) that, taking into account all other U.K./Canadian/German Guarantor Payments previously or concurrently made by any other Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor or U.K. Domiciled Obligor, exceeds the amount that such Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor or U.K. Domiciled Obligor would otherwise have paid if each Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor and U.K. Domiciled Obligor had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such U.K./Canadian/German Guarantor Payments in the same proportion that such Canadian Domiciled Obligor’s, German Domiciled Obligor’s or U.K. Domiciled Obligor’s U.K./Canadian/German Allocable Amount bore to the total U.K./Canadian/German Allocable Amounts of all Canadian Domiciled Obligors, German Domiciled Obligors and U.K. Domiciled Obligors, then such Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor or U.K. Domiciled Obligor shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and to be reimbursed by, each other Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor and U.K. Domiciled Obligor for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective U.K./Canadian/German Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such U.K./Canadian/German Guarantor Payment.  The “U.K./Canadian/German Allocable Amount” for any Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor or U.K. Domiciled Obligor shall be the maximum amount that could then be recovered from such Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor or  U.K. Domiciled Obligor under this Section 5.11 without rendering such payment voidable under Section 548 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or under any similar applicable fraudulent transfer or conveyance Applicable Law, or the Applicable Law in Canada, Germany or any province or territory thereof, or in England and with respect to the German Domiciled Obligors, subject to Section 5.11.7.
18.Subject to Section 5.11.7 and to any Applicable Law limitations with respect to the German Domiciled Obligors, each Canadian Domiciled Obligor, each German Domiciled Obligor and each U.K. Domiciled Obligor that is a Qualified ECP when its guaranty of or grant of Lien as security for a Swap Obligation becomes effective hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide funds or other support to each Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor and U.K. Domiciled Obligor that is a Specified Obligor with respect to such Swap Obligation as may be needed by such Specified Obligor from time to time to honor all of its obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of such Swap Obligation (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering such Qualified ECP’s obligations and undertakings under this Section 5.11 voidable under any applicable fraudulent transfer or conveyance act).  The obligations and undertakings of each Qualified ECP under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until Full Payment of all Obligations.  Each Canadian Domiciled Obligor, German Domiciled Obligor and each U.K. Domiciled Obligor intends this 








Section to constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a guarantee of the obligations of, and a “keepwell, support or other agreement” for the benefit of, each Obligor for all purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act.
5.11.i.No Limitation.  Nothing contained in this Section 5.11 shall limit the liability of any Obligor to pay Loans made directly or indirectly to that Obligor (including Loans advanced to any other Obligor and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Obligor), LC Obligations relating to Letters of Credit issued to support such Obligor’s business, and all accrued interest, fees, expenses and other related Obligations with respect thereto, for which such Obligor shall be primarily liable for all purposes hereunder.  Agent and Lenders shall have the right, at any time in their discretion, to condition Loans and Letters of Credit upon a separate calculation of borrowing availability for each Borrower and to restrict the disbursement and use of such Loans and Letters of Credit to such Borrower.
5.11.ii.Joint Enterprise.  Each Obligor has requested that Agent and Lenders make the credit facilities available to the applicable Borrowers on a combined basis, in order to finance Borrowers’ business most efficiently and economically.  Obligors’ business is a mutual and collective enterprise, and the successful operation of each Obligor is dependent upon the successful performance of the integrated group.  The Obligors believe that the credit facilities provided to the applicable Borrowers under this Agreement will enhance the borrowing power of each Borrower and ease administration of such credit facilities, all to their mutual advantage.  Obligors acknowledge that Agent’s and Lenders’ willingness to extend credit and to administer the Collateral as provided under the Loan Documents is done solely as an accommodation to Obligors and at Obligors’ request.
5.11.iii.California Waivers.  
(28)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, each of the Obligors hereby understands and acknowledges that if Agent forecloses judicially or nonjudicially against any Collateral consisting of Real Estate located in California for the Obligations, that foreclosure could impair or destroy any ability that the Obligors may have to seek reimbursement, contribution, or indemnification from one another based on any right any Obligor may have of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution, or indemnification for any amounts paid by the Obligors under this Agreement.  Each of the Obligors further understands and acknowledges that in the absence of this paragraph, such potential impairment or destruction of the Obligors’ rights, if any, may entitle the Obligors to assert a defense to this Agreement based on Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure as interpreted in Union Bank v. Gradsky,  265 Cal. App. 2d 40 (1968).  By executing this Agreement, each Obligor freely, irrevocably, and unconditionally: (i) waives and relinquishes that defense and agrees that the Obligors will be fully liable under this Agreement even though Agent may foreclose, either by judicial foreclosure or by exercise of power of sale, any deed of trust securing the Obligations; (ii) agrees that the Obligors will not assert that defense in any action or proceeding which Agent may commence to enforce this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (iii) acknowledges and agrees that the rights and defenses waived by the Obligors in this Agreement include any right or defense that the Obligors may have or be entitled to assert based upon or arising out of any one or more of Sections 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure or Section 2848 of the California Civil Code; and (iv) acknowledges and agrees that Agent and the Lenders are relying on this waiver in creating the Obligations, and that this waiver is a material part of the consideration which Agent and the Lenders are receiving for creating the Obligations.
(29)Each of the Obligors waives all rights and defenses that each Obligor may have because of any of the Obligations is secured by Real Estate.  This means, among other things:  (i) Agent may collect from the Obligors without first foreclosing on any real or personal 








property collateral pledged by the Obligors; and (ii) if Agent forecloses on any Collateral consisting of Real Estate pledged by the Obligors: (A) the amount of the Obligations may be reduced only by the price for which that Collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the Collateral is worth more than the sale price, and (B) Agent may collect from the Obligors even if Agent, by foreclosing on the Collateral consisting of Real Estate, has destroyed any right the Obligors may have to collect from one another.  This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses the Obligors may have because any of the Obligations are secured by real property.  These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.
(30)Each of the Obligors waives any right or defense it may have at law or equity, including California Code of Civil Procedure Section 580a, to a fair market value hearing or action to determine a deficiency judgment after a foreclosure.
5.11.iii.Subordination.  Each Obligor hereby subordinates any claims, including any rights at law or in equity to payment, subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off, that it may have at any time against any other Obligor, howsoever arising, to the Full Payment of all Obligations.
5.11.iv.German Limitations.  On the basis of the judgments LG Darmstadt, 25.4.2013 − 16 O 195/12, OLG Frankfurt a. M., 8.11.2013 − 24 U 80/13 A, BGH, 10.1.2017 – II ZR 94/15 and BGH, 21.3.2017 – II ZR 93/16 the respective directors (Geschäftsführer) of each German Facility Obligor incorporated or established (as the case may be) in Germany (a “German Guarantor”) have assessed the financing concept provided for in connection with this Agreement and are satisfied by its robustness. In the case that during the lifetime of this Agreement the directors of a German Guarantor reasonably expect to suffer a personal liability in the case of an enforcement of this Section 5.11, the Secured Parties agree to the following limitations in order to avoid a personal liability of the directors (Geschäftsführer) or managing directors, respectively, of that German Guarantor (and/ or in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG or a GmbH & Co. KGaA, its general partner’s directors (Geschäftsführer)) as follows:
(i)To the extent a German Guarantor guarantees or indemnifies any obligations under this Section 5.11 or any other provision of the Loan Documents of any of its Holding Companies or Affiliates (other than a Subsidiary of that German Guarantor) and that the German Guarantor is a GmbH, a GmbH & Co. KG or a GmbH & Co. KGaA, the enforcement of the respective obligations of that German Guarantor under this Section 5.11 (or any other relevant provision of the Loan Documents) shall, subject to paragraphs (b) to (d) below, be limited to the amount that would not lead to the situation, that (i) such German Guarantor’s net assets (for the purposes of this clause net assets means the assets (taking into consideration the assets listed under Section 266 paragraph 2 A, B, C, D and E of the German Commercial Code (HGB)) less the aggregate of its liabilities (taking into consideration the liabilities listed under Section 266 paragraph 3 B, C, D and E of the German Commercial Code (HGB)) of the German Guarantor in each case as calculated in accordance with the applicable law at that time fall below its (or in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, its general partner’s) registered share capital (Stammkapital) or (ii), if its (or in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG or a GmbH & Co. KGaA, its general partner’s) net assets are already below its (or in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG or a GmbH & Co. KGaA, its general partner’s) registered share capital, the existing shortage in its (or in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG or a GmbH & Co. KGaA, its general partner’s) net assets would be further increased in each case in violation of Sections 30, 31 of the German Limited Liability Companies’ Act (GmbHG).








(ii)The limitations set out in paragraph (a) of this Section 5.11.7 only apply:
(1)if and to the extent that the managing directors on behalf of such German Guarantor have evidenced (in reasonable detail) in writing to the Agent (a “German Management Confirmation”) within 15 Business Days of demand under this Section 5.11 (or the respective other provision of the Loan Documents) the amount of the obligations under this Section 5.11 (or the respective other provision of the Loan Documents) which cannot be met without causing the net assets of such German Guarantor (or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG or a GmbH & Co. KGaA, its general partner) to fall below its registered share capital or further reducing an existing shortage of its net assets below its registered share capital; and
(2)in case a Lender raises an objection against the German Management Confirmation and the Agent notifies the respective German Guarantor of such objection, if the Agent receives within 25 Business Days after such notification a written audit report prepared at the expense of the relevant German Guarantor by a firm of auditors of international standard and reputation that has been appointed by the respective German Guarantor with a view to investigating to what extent the net assets of that German Guarantor (or in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG or a GmbH & Co. KGaA, its general partner) exceeded its registered share capital.
(iii)The limitations set out in paragraph (a) of this Section 5.11.7 shall not apply to a guarantee in respect of loans made to the German Guarantor under this Agreement to the extent they are on-lent to, or letters of credit (or similar instruments under any Ancillary Facility) to the extent issued for the benefit of, that German Guarantor or its Subsidiaries (and/ or in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG or a GmbH & Co. KGaA, its general partner and the general partner’s Subsidiaries) and such amount on-lent or benefit granted has not been returned prior to the time of the intended enforcement.
(iv)In any event the Secured Parties shall be entitled to enforce the guarantee and indemnities up to the amount that is undisputed between them and the relevant German Guarantor and, in relation to the amount which is disputed, the Secured Parties shall be entitled to further pursue their claims (if any) and the German Guarantor shall be entitled to provide evidence that the disputed amount is necessary for maintaining its or its general partner’s registered share capital or avoiding a further reduction of an existing shortage of its net assets below its registered share capital.
(v)In any event the Secured Parties shall be entitled to enforce the guarantee and indemnities without any limitations if:
(3)a domination and/ or profit and loss pooling agreement (Beherrschungs- und/ oder Gewinnabführungsvertrag) has been entered into with the German Guarantor as dominated party (beherrschtes Unternehmen); 
(4)the German Guarantor has an adequate counterclaim (vollwertiger Gegenanspruch) against its shareholder for the indemnification of any amount paid by it under the guarantee and indemnities;
(5)insolvency proceedings have been opened in relation to that German Guarantor;








(6)by law, changes in applicable law or applicable court rulings of the Federal Supreme Court the limitations set out in this Section 5.11.7 are not deemed to be longer required to protect the management of the German Guarantor; or
(7)the German Guarantor has not complied with its obligations under this Section 5.11.7. 
(i)Subject to paragraphs (g) and (h) below, any guarantee and/or indemnity granted under this Section 5.11 by a German Guarantor that is incorporated as a stock corporation (Aktiengesellschaft) or a partnership limited by shares (Kommanditgesellschaft auf Aktien), including, for the avoidance of doubt, a GmbH & Co. KGaA, or any Subsidiary of such German Guarantor shall not secure liabilities which are owed by direct or indirect shareholders of such German Guarantor or Subsidiaries of such shareholders (for the avoidance of doubt, such subsidiaries not to include the German Guarantor and its Subsidiaries) except if and for so long as the German Guarantor is a party to a domination and/or profit and loss pooling agreement (Beherrschungs- und/oder Gewinnabführungsvertrag) within the meaning of section 291 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) as the dominated party with a direct or indirect shareholder or any Subsidiary of such shareholder (for the avoidance of doubt, such Subsidiaries not to include the German Guarantor and its Subsidiaries) as the dominating party.
(ii)If a domination and/or profit and loss pooling agreement (Beherrschungs- und/oder Gewinnabführungsvertrag) within the meaning of section 291 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) is in force between the German Guarantor and a direct or indirect shareholder or any Subsidiary of such shareholder (for the avoidance of doubt, such Subsidiaries not to include the German Guarantor and its Subsidiaries) with the direct or indirect shareholder or relevant Subsidiary as the dominating party, any guarantee and/or indemnity granted under this Section 5.11 by the German Guarantor or by any Subsidiary of such German Guarantor shall be fully enforceable (vollstreckbar), except that it shall not be enforceable (vollstreckbar) if and to the extent that despite the existence of such circumstances there would be a violation of section 57 para. 1 sentence 1 or section 71a para. 1 sentence 1 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz).
(iii)Except if and to the extent that despite the existence of the circumstances set out in paragraphs (i) to (iii) below there would be a violation of section 57 para. 1 sentence 1 or section 71a para. 1 sentence 1 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz), the restrictions in paragraphs (f) and (g) above shall not apply to any amounts which:
(8)correspond to funds that have been borrowed under this Agreement and have been on-lent to, or otherwise been passed on to, the German Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case to the extent that any such on-lent or passed-on funds are still outstanding at the date a demand is made under any guarantee and/or indemnity granted under this Section 5.11 (in each case, the “Demand Date”);
(9)correspond to letters of credit or bank guarantees issued for the benefit of creditors of the German Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries by a Secured 








Party under the Loan Documents, in each case to the extent outstanding at the Demand Date; or
(10)are covered (and to the extent they are covered) by a fully recoverable indemnity claim or claim for refund (vollwertiger und durchsetzbarer Gegenleistungs- oder Rückgewähranspruch) of the German Guarantor against its shareholder that can be accounted for in the balance sheet of the German Guarantor at full value (vollwertig),
provided that the Agent has waived with binding effect on the Secured Parties any restrictions otherwise applicable to the German Guarantor under the Loan Documents with respect to demanding, enforcing, setting off or otherwise claiming or discharging any of its recourse claims (if any) arising as a result of the enforcement of any guarantee and/or indemnity granted under this Section 5.11 so that it shall be permitted for the German Guarantor to (1) set off its recourse claim (if any) against the loan obligation in respect of any amounts so on-lent to it, (2) otherwise use its recourse claim (if any) to settle or discharge such loan obligation, or (3) to claim to be indemnified by another Obligor (including to bring legal or other proceedings against another Obligor in that regard).
(vi)The restrictions set forth in paragraph (a) or paragraph (f) of this Section 5.11.7 shall not imply any full or partial waiver of any amount owed under the guarantee and indemnity under this Section 5.11, but shall impede only temporarily the enforcement of the guarantee and indemnity under this Section 5.11 to the extent the enforcement of the guarantee and indemnity under this Section 5.11 is limited by the restrictions set forth in paragraph (a) or paragraph (f), respectively, of this Section 5.11.7.
5.lCurrency Matters.  Dollars are the currency of account and payment for each and every sum at any time due from Borrowers hereunder unless otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise agreed to by Agent.  The parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
(31)Each repayment of a Loan or LC Obligation or a part thereof shall be made in the currency in which such Loan or LC Obligation is denominated at the time of that repayment;
(32)Each payment of interest shall be made in the currency in which the principal or other sum in respect of which such interest is denominated;

No payment to any Credit Party (whether under any judgment or court order or otherwise) shall discharge the obligation or liability of the Obligor in respect of which it was made unless and until such Credit Party shall have received Full Payment in the currency in which such obligation or liability is payable pursuant to the above provisions of this Section 5.12.  To the extent that the amount of any such payment shall, on actual conversion into such currency, be less than the full amount of such obligation or liability (actual or contingent) expressed in that currency, such Obligor (together with the other Obligors who are liable thereunder or obligated therefor) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless such Credit Party with respect to the amount of such deficiency, with such indemnity surviving the termination of this Agreement and any legal proceeding, judgment or court order pursuant to which the original payment was made which resulted in such deficiency.

If the purchased amount is less than the sum originally due, such Obligor agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify Agent and Secured Parties against such loss.  If the purchased amount is greater than the sum originally due, Agent or such Secured Party shall return the excess amount to such Obligor (or to the Person legally entitled thereto).
Section 12.AGENT
12.aAppointment, Authority and Duties of Agent.
12.1.i.Appointment and Authority.  
(1)Each Secured Party appoints and designates Bank of America as Agent under all Loan Documents.  Agent may, and each Secured Party authorizes Agent to, enter into all Loan Documents to which Agent is intended to be a party and accept all Security Documents, for the benefit of Secured Parties.  Each Secured Party agrees that any action taken by Agent, Required Lenders, U.S. Required Lenders, German Required Lenders, U.K. Required Lenders, or Canadian Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, and the exercise by Agent or Required Lenders of any rights or remedies set forth therein, together with 








all other powers reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized by and binding upon all Secured Parties.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent shall have the sole and exclusive authority to (a) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for Lenders with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection with the Loan Documents; (b) execute and deliver as Agent each Loan Document, including any intercreditor or subordination agreement, and accept delivery of each Loan Document from any Obligor or other Person; (c) act as collateral agent for Secured Parties for purposes of perfecting and administering Liens under the Loan Documents, and for all other purposes stated therein; (d) manage, supervise or otherwise deal with Collateral; and (e) take any Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral under the Loan Documents, Applicable Law or otherwise.  The duties of Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and Agent shall not have a fiduciary relationship with any Secured Party, Participant or other Person, by reason of any Loan Document or any transaction relating thereto.  Agent alone shall be authorized to determine whether any Accounts or Inventory constitute Eligible Accounts, Eligible Inventory or Eligible In-Transit Inventory, whether to impose or release any reserve, or whether any conditions to funding or to issuance of a Letter of Credit have been satisfied, which determinations and judgments, if exercised in good faith, shall exonerate Agent from liability to any Lender or other Person for any error in judgment.
(2)For the purposes of creating a solidarité active in accordance with Article 1541 of the Civil Code of Quebec between each Secured Party, taken individually, on the one hand, and the Agent, on the other hand, each Obligor and each such Secured Party acknowledge and agree with the Agent that such Secured Party and the Agent are hereby conferred the legal status of solidary creditors of each such Obligor in respect of all Obligations owed by each such Obligor to the Agent and such Secured Party hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Solidary Claim”) and that, accordingly, but subject (for the avoidance of doubt) to Article 1542 of the Civil Code of Quebec, each such Obligor is irrevocably bound towards the Agent and each Secured Party in respect of the entire Solidary Claim of the Agent and such Secured Party.  As a result of the foregoing, the parties hereto acknowledge that the Agent and each Secured Party shall at all times have a valid and effective right of action for the entire Solidary Claim of the Agent and such Secured Party and the right to give full acquittance for it.  Accordingly, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent, as solidary creditor with each Secured Party, shall at all times have a valid and effective right of action in respect of the Solidary Claim and the right to give a full acquittance for same.  By its execution of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, each such Obligor not a party hereto shall also be deemed to have accepted the stipulations hereinabove provided.  The parties further agree and acknowledge that such Liens (hypothecs) under the Security Documents and the other Loan Documents shall be granted to the Agent, for its own benefit and for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as solidary creditor as hereinabove set forth.
(3)Without limiting the foregoing or any powers of Agent, for the purposes of holding any hypothec granted to the Attorney (as defined below) pursuant to the laws of the Province of Québec to secure the prompt payment and performance of any and all Obligations by any Obligor, each of the Secured Parties hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes Agent and, to the extent necessary, ratifies the appointment and authorization of Agent, to act as the hypothecary representative of the present and future creditors as contemplated under Article 2692 of the Civil Code (in such capacity, the “Attorney”), 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 that are conferred upon the Attorney under any related deed of hypothec.  The Attorney shall: (i) 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 pursuant to any such deed of hypothec and applicable law, and (ii) benefit from and be subject to all provisions hereof with respect to Agent mutatis mutandis, including, without limitation, all such provisions with respect to the liability or responsibility to and indemnification by the Secured Parties and 








Obligors.  Any person who becomes a Secured Party shall, by its execution of an Assignment and Acceptance, be deemed to have consented to and confirmed the Attorney as the person acting as hypothecary representative holding the aforesaid hypothecs as aforesaid and to have ratified, as of the date it becomes a Secured Party, all actions taken by the Attorney in such capacity.  The substitution of Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 12 also constitutes the substitution of the Attorney.
12.1.ii.Duties.  Agent shall not have any duties except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents.  The conferral upon Agent of any right shall not imply a duty to exercise such right, unless instructed to do so by Lenders in accordance with this Agreement.
12.1.iii.Agent Professionals.  Agent may perform its duties through agents and employees.  Agent may consult with and employ Agent Professionals, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by an Agent Professional.  Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents, employees or Agent Professionals selected by it with reasonable care.
12.1.iv.Instructions of Required Lenders.  The rights and remedies conferred upon Agent under the Loan Documents may be exercised without the necessity of joinder of any other party, unless required by Applicable Law.  Agent may request instructions from Required Lenders or other Secured Parties with respect to any act (including the failure to act) in connection with any Loan Documents, and may seek assurances to its satisfaction from Secured Parties of their indemnification obligations against all Claims that could be incurred by Agent in connection with any act.  Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act until it has received such instructions or assurances, and Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.  Instructions of Required Lenders shall be binding upon all Secured Parties, and no Secured Party shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting in accordance with the instructions of Required Lenders.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, instructions by and consent of specific parties shall be required to the extent provided in Section 14.1.1.  In no event shall Agent be required to take any action that, in its opinion, is contrary to Applicable Law or any Loan Documents or could subject any Agent Indemnitee to personal liability.
12.1.v.Agent as Security Trustee. In this Agreement and the U.K. Security Agreements, any rights and remedies exercisable by, any documents to be delivered to, or any other indemnities or obligations in favor of Agent shall be, as the case may be, exercisable by, delivered to, or be indemnities or other obligations in favor of, Agent (or any other Person acting in such capacity) in its capacity as security trustee of Secured Parties to the extent that the rights, deliveries, indemnities or other obligations relate to the U.K. Security Agreements or the security thereby created.  Any obligations of Agent (or any other Person acting in such capacity) in this Agreement and U.K. Security Agreements shall be obligations of Agent in its capacity as security trustee of Secured Parties to the extent that the obligations relate to the U.K. Security Agreements or the security thereby created.  Additionally, in its capacity as security trustee of Secured Parties Agent (or any other Person acting in such capacity) shall have (i) all the rights, remedies and benefits in favor of Agent contained in the provisions of the whole of this Section 12; (ii) all the powers of an absolute owner of the security constituted by the U.K. Security Agreements  and (iii) all the rights, remedies and powers granted to it and be subject to all the obligations and duties owed by it under the U.K. Security Agreements and/or any of the Loan Documents.
12.1.vi.Appointment of Agent as Security Trustee. Each Secured Party hereby appoints Agent to act as its trustee under and in relation to the U.K. Security Agreements and to hold the assets subject to the security thereby created as trustee for Secured Parties on the trusts and other terms contained in the U.K. Security Agreements and each Secured Party hereby irrevocably 








authorizes Agent in its capacity as security trustee of Secured Parties to exercise such rights, remedies, powers and discretions as are specifically delegated to Agent as security trustee of Secured Parties by the terms of the U.K. Security Agreements together with all such rights, remedies, powers and discretions as are reasonably incidental thereto.
12.1.vii.Liens. Any reference in this Agreement to Liens stated to be in favor of Agent shall be construed so as to include a reference to Liens granted in favor of Agent in its capacity as security trustee of Secured Parties.
12.1.viii.Successors. Secured Parties agree that, if at any time that the Person acting as security trustee of Secured Parties in respect of the U.K. Security Agreements shall be a Person other than Agent, such other Person shall have the rights, remedies, benefits and powers granted to Agent in its capacity as security trustee of Secured Parties under this Agreement and the U.K. Security Agreements.
12.1.ix.Capacity. Nothing in Sections 12.1.5 to 12.1.8 shall require Agent in its capacity as security trustee of Secured Parties under the U.K. Security Agreements to act as a trustee at common law or to be holding any property on trust, in any jurisdiction outside the U.K. which may not operate under principles of trust or where such trust would not be recognized or its effects would not be enforceable.
12.bAgreements Regarding Collateral and Field Examination Reports.
12.2.i.Lien Releases; Care of Collateral.  Secured Parties authorize Agent to release any Lien with respect to any Collateral (a) upon Full Payment of the Obligations; (b) that is the subject of an Asset Disposition which Borrowers certify in writing to Agent is a disposition permitted hereunder or a Lien which Borrowers certify is a Permitted Lien entitled to priority over Agent’s Liens (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate without further inquiry); (c) that does not have, when aggregated with all other released Collateral under this clause (c) in any calendar year, a book value greater than $5,000,000; or (d) with the written consent of all Lenders.  Secured Parties authorize Agent to release or subordinate its Liens to any Lien permitted under Section 10.2.1(j) or Section 10.2.1(p).  Agent shall have no obligation to assure that any Collateral exists or is owned by a Borrower, or is cared for, protected, insured or encumbered, nor to assure that Agent’s Liens have been properly created, perfected or enforced, or are entitled to any particular priority, nor to exercise any duty of care with respect to any Collateral.
12.2.ii.Possession of Collateral.  Agent and Secured Parties appoint each Lender as agent (for the benefit of Secured Parties) for the purpose of perfecting Liens in any Collateral held or controlled by such Lender, to the extent such Liens are perfected by possession or control.  If any Lender obtains possession or control of any Collateral, it shall notify Agent thereof and, promptly upon Agent’s request, deliver such Collateral to Agent or otherwise deal with it in accordance with Agent’s instructions.
12.2.iii.Reports.  Agent shall promptly forward to each Lender, when complete, copies of any field audit, examination or appraisal report prepared by or for Agent with respect to any Obligor or Collateral (“Report”).  Each Lender agrees (a) that neither Bank of America nor Agent makes any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any Report, and shall not be liable for any information contained in or omitted from any Report; (b) that the Reports are not intended to be comprehensive audits or examinations, and that Agent or any other Person performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding Obligations or the Collateral and will rely significantly upon the applicable Obligors’ books and records as well as upon representations of the applicable Obligors’ officers and employees; and (c) to keep all Reports confidential and strictly for such Lender’s internal use, 








and not to distribute any Report (or the contents thereof) to any Person (except: (i) to such Lender’s Participants, attorneys and accountants, (ii) to the extent requested by any governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it or its Affiliates, or (iii) to the extent required by Applicable Law or by any subpoena or other legal process) or use any Report in any manner other than administration of the Loans and other Obligations.  Each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless Agent and any other Person preparing a Report from any action such Lender may take as a result of or any conclusion it may draw from any Report, as well as from any Claims arising as a direct or indirect result of Agent furnishing a Report to such Lender.
12.cReliance By Agent.  Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any certification, notice or other communication (including those by telephone, telex, telegram, telecopy or e-mail) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and upon the advice and statements of Agent Professionals.  Agent shall have a reasonable and practicable amount of time to act upon any instruction, notice or other communication under any Loan Document, and shall not be liable for any delay in acting.
12.dAction Upon Default.  Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, or of any failure to satisfy any conditions in Section 6, unless it has received written notice from a Borrower or Required Lenders specifying the occurrence and nature thereof.  If any Lender acquires knowledge of a Default, Event of Default or failure of such conditions, it shall promptly notify Agent and the other Lenders thereof in writing.  Each Secured Party agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any Loan Documents or with the written consent of Agent and Required Lenders, it will not take any Enforcement Action, accelerate Obligations (other than Secured Bank Product Obligations), or exercise any right that it might otherwise have under Applicable Law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC or PPSA sales or other similar dispositions of Collateral or to assert any rights relating to any Collateral.
12.eRatable Sharing.  No Lender shall set off against any Dominion Account without the prior consent of Agent.  If any Lender shall obtain any payment or reduction of any Obligation, whether through set-off or otherwise, in excess of its share of such Obligation, determined on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.6.1, as applicable, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from Agent, the U.S. Issuing Bank (if such Obligation is a U.S. Facility Obligation), the Canadian Issuing Bank (if such Obligation is a Canadian Facility Obligation), the German Issuing Bank (if such Obligation is a German Facility Obligation), the U.K. Issuing Bank (if such Obligation is a U.K. Facility Obligation), and the other Lenders such participations in the affected Obligation as are necessary to cause the purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or reduction on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.6.1, as applicable.  If any of such payment or reduction is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Defaulting Lender obtains a payment or reduction of any Obligation, it shall immediately turn over the amount thereof to Agent for application under Section 4.2.2 and it shall provide a written statement to Agent describing the Obligation affected by such payment or reduction.  No Lender shall set off against any Dominion Account without the prior consent of the Agent
12.fIndemnification.  EACH LENDER SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS AGENT INDEMNITEES AND ISSUING BANK INDEMNITEES, TO THE EXTENT NOT REIMBURSED BY OBLIGORS, ON A PRO RATA BASIS, AGAINST ALL CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY SUCH INDEMNITEE (OTHER THAN CLAIMS THAT ARE CAUSED BY THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH INDEMNITEE), PROVIDED THAT ANY CLAIM AGAINST AN AGENT INDEMNITEE RELATES TO OR ARISES 








FROM ITS ACTING AS OR FOR AGENT (IN THE CAPACITY OF AGENT).  In Agent’s discretion, it may reserve for any Claims made against an Agent Indemnitee or Issuing Bank Indemnitee, and may satisfy any judgment, order or settlement relating thereto, from proceeds of Collateral prior to making any distribution of Collateral proceeds to Secured Parties.  If Agent is sued by any Creditor Representative, debtor-in-possession or other Person for any alleged preference or fraudulent transfer, then any monies paid by Agent in settlement or satisfaction of such proceeding, together with all interest, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in the defense of same, shall be promptly reimbursed to Agent by each Lender to the extent of its Pro Rata share.
12.gLimitation on Responsibilities of Agent.  Agent shall not be liable to any Secured Party for any action taken or omitted to be taken under the Loan Documents, except for losses directly and solely caused by Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Agent does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by any Obligor, Lender or other Secured Party of any obligations under the Loan Documents.  Agent does not make any express or implied representation, warranty or guarantee to Secured Parties with respect to any Obligations, Collateral, Loan Documents or Obligor.  No Agent Indemnitee shall be responsible to Secured Parties for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in any Loan Documents; the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any Loan Documents; the genuineness, enforceability, collectability, value, sufficiency, location or existence of any Collateral, or the validity, extent, perfection or priority of any Lien therein; the validity, enforceability or collectability of any Obligations; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Obligor or Account Debtor.  No Agent Indemnitee shall have any obligation to any Secured Party to ascertain or inquire into the existence of any Default or Event of Default, the observance or performance by any Obligor of any terms of the Loan Documents, or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in any Loan Documents.
12.hSuccessor Agent and Co-Agents.
12.8.i.Resignation; Successor Agent.  Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, Agent may resign at any time by giving at least 30 days written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower Agent.  Upon receipt of such notice, Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent which shall be (a) a U.S. Lender or an Affiliate of a U.S. Lender; or (b) a commercial bank that is organized under the laws of the United States or any state or district thereof, has a combined capital surplus of at least $200,000,000 and (provided no Default or Event of Default exists) is reasonably acceptable to Borrower Agent.  If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Agent, then Agent may appoint a successor agent from among Lenders or, if no Lender accepts such role, Agent may appoint Required Lenders as successor Agent.  Upon acceptance by a successor Agent of an appointment to serve as Agent hereunder, or upon appointment of Required Lenders as successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the powers and duties of the retiring Agent (including as security trustee of Secured Parties under the U.K. Security Agreements) without further act, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder but shall continue to have the benefits of the indemnification set forth in Sections 12.6 and 14.2.  Notwithstanding any Agent’s resignation, the provisions of this Section 12 shall continue in effect for its benefit with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while Agent.  Any successor to Bank of America by merger or acquisition of stock or this loan shall continue to be Agent (including as security trustee of Secured Parties under the U.K. Security Agreements)  hereunder without further act on the part of the parties hereto, unless such successor resigns as provided above.
12.8.ii.Separate Collateral Agent.  It is the intent of the parties that there shall be no violation of any Applicable Law denying or restricting the right of financial institutions to 








transact business in any jurisdiction.  If Agent believes that it may be limited in the exercise of any rights or remedies under the Loan Documents due to any Applicable Law, Agent may appoint an additional Person who is not so limited, as a separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent.  If Agent so appoints a collateral agent or co-collateral agent, each right and remedy intended to be available to Agent under the Loan Documents shall also be vested in such separate agent.  Secured Parties shall execute and deliver such documents as Agent deems appropriate to vest any rights or remedies in such agent.  If any collateral agent or co-collateral agent shall die or dissolve, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, then all the rights and remedies of such agent, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, shall vest in and be exercised by Agent until appointment of a new agent.
12.iDue Diligence and Non-Reliance.  Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lenders, and based upon such documents, information and analyses as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of each Obligor and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to fund Loans and participate in LC Obligations hereunder.  Each Secured Party has made such inquiries as it feels necessary concerning the Loan Documents, Collateral and Obligors.  Each Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Secured Parties have made no representations or warranties concerning any Obligor, any Collateral or the legality, validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any Loan Documents or Obligations.  Each Secured Party will, independently and without reliance upon any other Secured Party, and based upon such financial statements, documents and information as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make and rely upon its own credit decisions in making Loans and participating in LC Obligations, and in taking or refraining from any action under any Loan Documents.  Except for notices, reports and other information expressly requested by a Lender, Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Secured Party with any notices, reports or certificates furnished to Agent by any Obligor or any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition, business or Properties of any Obligor (or any of its Affiliates) which may come into possession of Agent or its Affiliates.
12.jRemittance of Payments and Collections.
12.10.i.Remittances Generally.  All payments by any Lender to Agent shall be made by the time and on the day set forth in this Agreement, in immediately available funds.  If no time for payment is specified or if payment is due on demand by Agent and request for payment is made by Agent by 11:00 a.m. (Applicable Time Zone) on a Business Day, payment shall be made by Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. (Applicable Time Zone) on such day, and if request is made after 11:00 a.m. (Applicable Time Zone), then payment shall be made by 11:00 a.m. (Applicable Time Zone) on the next Business Day.  Payment by Agent to any Secured Party shall be made by wire transfer, in the type of funds received by Agent.  Any such payment shall be subject to Agent’s right of offset for any amounts due from such payee under the Loan Documents.
12.10.ii.Failure to Pay.  If any Secured Party fails to pay any amount when due by it to Agent pursuant to the terms hereof, such amount shall bear interest from the due date until paid at the rate determined by Agent as customary in the banking industry for interbank compensation.  In no event shall Obligors be entitled to receive credit for any interest paid by a Secured Party to Agent, nor shall any Defaulting Lender be entitled to interest on any amounts held by Agent pursuant to Section 4.2.
12.10.iii.Recovery of Payments.  If Agent pays any amount to a Secured Party in the expectation that a related payment will be received by Agent from an Obligor and such related payment is not received, then Agent may recover such amount from each Secured Party that received it.  If Agent determines at any time that an amount received under any Loan Document 








must be returned to an Obligor or paid to any other Person pursuant to Applicable Law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term of any Loan Document, Agent shall not be required to distribute such amount to any Lender.  If any amounts received and applied by Agent to any Obligations are later required to be returned by Agent pursuant to Applicable Law, each Lender shall pay to Agent, on demand, such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the amounts required to be returned.
12.kAgent in its Individual Capacity.  As a Lender, Bank of America shall have the same rights and remedies under the other Loan Documents as any other Lender, and the terms “Lenders,” “Required Lenders,” “U.S. Required Lenders,” “German Required Lenders,” “U.K. Required Lenders,” “Canadian Required Lenders” or any similar term shall include Bank of America, if applicable, in its capacity as a Lender.  Bank of America and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, provide Bank Products to, act as financial or other advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Obligors and their Affiliates, as if Bank of America were not Agent hereunder, without any duty to account therefor to Lenders.  In their individual capacities, Bank of America and its Affiliates may receive information regarding Obligors, their Affiliates and their Account Debtors (including information subject to confidentiality obligations), and each Secured Party agrees that Bank of America and its Affiliates shall be under no obligation to provide such information to any Secured Party, if acquired in such individual capacity.
12.lAgent Titles.  Each Lender, other than Bank of America, that is designated (on the cover page of this Agreement or otherwise) by Bank of America as an “Agent” or “Arranger” of any type shall not have any right, power, responsibility or duty under any Loan Documents other than those applicable to all Lenders, and shall in no event be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any other Lender.
12.mBank Product Providers.  Each Secured Bank Product Provider, by delivery of a notice to Agent of a Bank Product, agrees to be bound by Section 5.6 and this Section 12.  Each Secured Bank Product Provider shall indemnify and hold harmless Agent Indemnitees, to the extent not reimbursed by Obligors, against all Claims that may be incurred by or asserted against any Agent Indemnitee in connection with such provider’s Secured Bank Product Obligations, unless such Claim is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Indemnitee. 
12.nNo Third Party Beneficiaries.  This Section 12 is an agreement solely among Secured Parties and Agent, and shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations.  This Section 12 does not confer any rights or benefits upon Obligors or any other Person.  As between Obligors and Agent, any action that Agent may take under any Loan Documents or with respect to any Obligations shall be conclusively presumed to have been authorized and directed by Secured Parties.
Section 13.BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS
13.aSuccessors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Obligors, Agent, Lenders, Secured Parties, and their respective successors and assigns, except that (a) no Obligor shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under any Loan Documents; and (b) any assignment by a Lender must be made in compliance with Section 13.3.  Agent may treat the Person which made any Loan as the owner thereof for all purposes until such Person makes an assignment in accordance with Section 13.3.  Any authorization or consent of a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent transferee or assignee of such Lender.








13.bParticipations.
13.2.i.Permitted Participants; Effect.  Any Lender may, in the Ordinary Course of Business and in accordance with Applicable Law, at any time sell to a financial institution (“Participant”) a participating interest in the rights and obligations of such Lender under any Loan Documents.  Despite any sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the holder of its Loans and Commitments for all purposes, all amounts payable by Obligors shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and Obligors and Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the Loan Documents.  Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters under the Loan Documents, and Agent and the other Lenders shall not have any obligation or liability to any such Participant.  A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.9 unless Borrower Agent agrees otherwise in writing.
13.2.ii.Voting Rights.  Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Documents other than that which forgives principal, interest or fees, reduces the stated interest rate or fees payable with respect to any Loan or Commitment in which such Participant has an interest, postpones the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date (if such Participant has an interest in the Canadian Revolver Commitments), U.K. Revolver Commitment Termination Date (if such Participant has an interest in the U.K. Revolver Commitments), German Revolver Commitment Termination Date (if such Participant has an interest in the German Revolver Commitments), or U.S. Revolver Commitment Termination Date (if such Participant has an interest in the U.S. Revolver Commitments), or any date fixed for any regularly scheduled payment of principal, interest or fees on such Loan or Commitment, or releases any Borrower, Guarantor or substantial portion of the Collateral.
13.2.iii.Benefit of Set-Off.  Obligors agree that each Participant shall have a right of set-off in respect of its participating interest to the same extent as if such interest were owing directly to a Lender, and each Lender shall also retain the right of set-off with respect to any participating interests sold by it.  By exercising any right of set-off, a Participant agrees to share with Lenders all amounts received through its set-off, in accordance with Section 12.5 as if such Participant were a Lender.
13.cAssignments.
13.3.i.Permitted Assignments.  
(1)A Lender may assign to an Eligible Assignee any of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, as long as (i) each assignment is of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of the transferor Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents and, in the case of a partial assignment, is in a minimum principal amount of $10,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Agent in its discretion) and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount; (ii) except in the case of an assignment in whole of a Lender’s rights and obligations, the aggregate amount of the Commitments retained by the transferor Lender is at least $10,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Agent in its discretion); and (iii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to Agent, for its acceptance and recording, an Assignment and Acceptance.  Nothing herein shall limit the right of a Lender to pledge or assign any rights under the Loan Documents to (x) any Federal Reserve Bank or the United States Treasury as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank, or (y) counterparties to swap 








agreements relating to any Loans; provided, however, that any payment by Obligors to the assigning Lender in respect of any Obligations assigned as described in this sentence shall satisfy Obligors’ obligations hereunder to the extent of such payment, and no such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.  
(2)Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, no assignment may be made unless after giving effect thereto: 
(6)the percentage of each U.S. Lender’s U.S. Revolver Commitment to the aggregate amount of all U.S. Revolver Commitments equals the percentage of such Lender’s and such Lender’s Affiliates’: (1) Canadian Revolver Commitment to the aggregate amount of all Canadian Revolver Commitments, (2) U.K. Revolver Commitment to the aggregate amount of all U.K. Revolver Commitments, and (3) German Revolver Commitment to the aggregate amount of all German Revolver Commitments; 
(7)the percentage of each Canadian Lender’s Canadian Revolver Commitment to the aggregate amount of all Canadian Revolver Commitments equals the percentage of such Lender’s and such Lender’s Affiliates’: (1) U.S. Revolver Commitment to the aggregate amount of all U.S. Revolver Commitments, (2) U.K. Revolver Commitment to the aggregate amount of all U.K. Revolver Commitments, and (3) German Revolver Commitment to the aggregate amount of all German Revolver Commitments;

(9)the percentage of each U.K. Lender’s U.K. Revolver Commitment to the aggregate amount of all U.K. Revolver Commitments equals the percentage of such Lender’s and such Lender’s Affiliates’: (1) U.S. Revolver Commitment to the aggregate amount of all U.S. Revolver Commitments, (2) Canadian Revolver Commitment to the aggregate amount of all Canadian Revolver Commitments, and (3) German Revolver Commitment to the aggregate amount of all German Revolver Commitments.
13.3.ii.Effect; Effective Date.  Upon delivery to Agent of an assignment notice in the form of Exhibit C and a processing fee of $3,500 (unless otherwise agreed by Agent in its discretion), the assignment shall become effective as specified in the notice, if it complies with this Section 13.3.  From such effective date, the Eligible Assignee shall for all purposes be a Lender under the Loan Documents, and shall have all rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder.  Upon consummation of an assignment, the transferor Lender, Agent and Borrowers shall make appropriate arrangements for issuance of replacement and/or new Notes, as applicable.  The transferee Lender shall comply with Section 5.10 and deliver, upon request, an administrative questionnaire satisfactory to Agent.
13.3.iii.Certain Assignees.  No assignment or participation may be made to an Obligor, Affiliate of an Obligor, Defaulting Lender or natural person.  In connection with any assignment by a Defaulting Lender, such assignment shall be effective only upon payment by the Eligible Assignee or Defaulting Lender to Agent of an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution (through direct payment, purchases of participations or other compensating actions as Agent 








deems appropriate), (a) to satisfy all funding and payment liabilities then owing by the Defaulting Lender hereunder, and (b) to acquire its Pro Rata share of all Loans and LC Obligations.  If an assignment by a Defaulting Lender shall become effective under Applicable Law for any reason without compliance with the foregoing sentence, then the assignee shall be deemed a Defaulting Lender for all purposes until such compliance occurs.
13.dReplacement of Certain Lenders.  If a Lender (a) fails to give its consent to any amendment, waiver or action for which consent of all Lenders was required and Required Lenders consented, or (b) is a Defaulting Lender, then, in addition to any other rights and remedies that any Person may have, Agent or Borrower Agent may, by notice to such Lender within 120 days after such event, require such Lender to assign all of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to Eligible Assignee(s), pursuant to appropriate Assignment and Acceptance(s), within 20 days after the notice.  Agent is irrevocably appointed as attorney-in-fact to execute any such Assignment and Acceptance if the Lender fails to execute it.  Such Lender shall be entitled to receive, in cash, concurrently with such assignment, all amounts owed to it under the Loan Documents, including all principal, interest and fees through the date of assignment (but excluding any prepayment charge).

14.aConsents, Amendments and Waivers.
14.1.i.Amendment.

Any waiver or consent granted by Agent or Lenders hereunder shall be effective only if in writing and only for the matter specified.

No Obligor will, directly or indirectly, pay any remuneration or other thing of value, whether by way of additional interest, fee or otherwise, to any Lender (in its capacity as a Lender hereunder) as consideration for agreement by such Lender with any modification of any Loan Documents, unless such remuneration or value is concurrently paid, on the same terms, on a Pro Rata basis to all Lenders providing their consent.
14.bIndemnity.  EACH OBLIGOR SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE INDEMNITEES AGAINST ANY CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE, INCLUDING CLAIMS ASSERTED BY ANY OBLIGOR OR OTHER PERSON OR ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF AN INDEMNITEE.

14.3.i.Notice Address.  Subject to Section 4.1.4, all notices and other communications by or to a party hereto shall be in writing and shall be given to any Obligor, at Borrower Agent’s address shown on the signature pages hereof, and to any other Person at its address shown on the signature pages hereof (or, in the case of a Person who becomes a Lender after the Closing Date, at the address shown on its Assignment and Acceptance), or at such other address as a party may hereafter specify by notice in accordance with this Section 14.3.  Each such notice or other communication shall be effective only (a) if given by facsimile transmission, when transmitted to the applicable facsimile number, if confirmation of receipt is received; (b) if given by mail, three Business Days after deposit in the mail, with first-class postage pre-paid, addressed to the applicable address; or (c) if given by personal delivery, when duly delivered to the notice address with receipt acknowledged.

Any written notice or other communication that is not sent in conformity with the foregoing provisions shall nevertheless be effective on the date actually received by the noticed party.  Any notice received by Borrower Agent shall be deemed received by all Obligors.
14.3.ii.Electronic Communications; Voice Mail.  Electronic mail and internet websites may be used only for routine communications, such as financial statements, Borrowing Base Certificates and other information required by Section 10.1.2, administrative matters, distribution of Loan Documents, and matters permitted under Section 4.1.4.  Agent and Lenders make no assurances as to the privacy and security of electronic communications.  Electronic and voice mail may not be used as effective notice under the Loan Documents.
14.3.iii.Non-Conforming Communications.  Agent and Lenders may rely upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of any Obligor even if such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not confirmed, or if the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from a later confirmation.  Each Obligor shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from any liabilities, losses, costs and expenses arising from any telephonic communication purportedly given by or on behalf of an Obligor.
14.dPerformance of Obligors’ Obligations.  Agent may, in its discretion at any time and from time to time, at the applicable Borrowers’ expense, pay any amount or do any act required of an Obligor under any Loan Documents or otherwise lawfully requested by Agent to (a) enforce any Loan Documents or collect any Obligations; (b) protect, insure, maintain or realize upon any Collateral; or (c) defend or maintain the validity or priority of Agent’s Liens in any Collateral, including any payment of a judgment, insurance premium, warehouse charge, finishing or processing charge, or landlord claim, or any discharge of a Lien.  All payments, costs and expenses (including Extraordinary Expenses) of Agent under this Section shall be reimbursed to Agent by Borrowers, on demand, with interest from the date incurred to the date of payment thereof at the Default Rate applicable to U.S. Base Rate Revolver Loans.  Any payment made or action taken by Agent under this Section shall be without prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default or to exercise any other rights or remedies under the Loan Documents.
14.eCredit Inquiries.  Each Obligor hereby authorizes Agent and Lenders (but they shall have no obligation) to respond to usual and customary credit inquiries from third parties concerning any Obligor or Subsidiary.

invalid under Applicable Law, it shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity and the remaining provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect.
14.gCumulative Effect; Conflict of Terms.  The provisions of the Loan Documents are cumulative.  The parties acknowledge that the Loan Documents may use several limitations, tests or measurements to regulate similar matters, and they agree that these are cumulative and that each must be performed as provided.  Except as otherwise provided in another Loan Document (by specific reference to the applicable provision of this Agreement), if any provision contained herein is in direct conflict with any provision in another Loan Document, the provision herein shall govern and control.
14.hCounterparts.  Any Loan Document may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  This Agreement shall become effective when Agent has received counterparts bearing the signatures of all parties hereto.  Delivery of a signature page of any Loan Document by telecopy or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of such agreement.
14.iEntire Agreement.  Time is of the essence of the Loan Documents.  The Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof, and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.
14.jRelationship with Lenders.  The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitments of any other Lender.  Amounts payable hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt.  It shall not be necessary for Agent or any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purposes.  Nothing in this Agreement and no action of Agent, Lenders or any other Secured Party pursuant to the Loan Documents or otherwise shall be deemed to constitute Agent and any Secured Party to be a partnership, association, joint venture or any other kind of entity, nor to constitute control of any Obligor.

(13)the Agent shall have its own independent right to demand and receive payment under the Parallel Obligations;
(14)the Parallel Obligations shall, subject to clause (d) below, not limit or affect the existence of the Original Obligations for which the Secured Parties shall have an independent right to demand payment;

In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
14.qNonliability of Lenders.  Neither the Agent, any Issuing Bank nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to any Obligor to review or inform any Obligor of any matter in connection with any phase of any Obligor’s business or operations.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the priority of the Lien and security interest granted to the Agent pursuant to any Loan Document and the exercise of any right or remedy in respect of the Collateral by the Agent (or any Secured Party) hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and in the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and any Loan Document, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to the Discharge of Term Loan Obligations (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), (i) the delivery or granting of “control” (as defined in the UCC) to the extent only one Person can be granted “control” therein under applicable law of any Term Loan Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) by the Term Loan Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of the Term Loan Collateral Documents (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) shall satisfy any such “control” requirement hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to any Term Loan Collateral to the extent that such “control” is consistent with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and (ii) the possession of any Term Loan Collateral by the Term Loan Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of the Term Loan Collateral Documents shall satisfy any such possession requirement hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to Term Loan Collateral to the extent that such possession is consistent with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.
14.uAcknowledgement Regarding Supported QFCs.   To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, "QFC Credit Support", and each such QFC, 








a "Supported QFC"), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the "U.S. Special Resolution Regimes") in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States).
14.25.i.Covered Party.  If a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a "Covered Party") becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.  If a Covered Party or BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes if the Supported QFC and Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.  Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
14.25.ii.Definitions.  As used in this Section, (a) "BHC Act Affiliate" means an "affiliate," as defined in and interpreted in accordance with 12 U.S.C. §1841(k); (b) "Default Right" has the meaning assigned in and interpreted in accordance with 12 C.F.R. §§252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable; and (c) "QFC" means a "qualified financial contract," as defined in and interpreted in accordance with 12 U.S.C. §5390(c)(8)(D).
