Lender (without recourse or warranty) such participation of the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause the Lenders to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon their respective US Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages,
provided that all principal and interest payable on such Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender until the date the respective participation is purchased and, to the extent attributable to the purchased participation,

 (d) Whenever the Borrower desires to incur Swingline Loans hereunder, it
shall give the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each Borrowing of Swingline Loans prior to 2:30 p.m. (New York time) on the date of such Borrowing. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and
shall specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing and (ii) the date of Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day). The Administrative Agent shall promptly give the Swingline Lender written
notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each proposed Borrowing of Swingline Loans and of the other matters covered by the related Notice of Borrowing. 
  
 (e) Mandatory Borrowings shall be made upon the notice specified in Section 2.1(d), with the Borrower irrevocably agreeing,
by its incurrence of any Swingline Loan, to the making of Mandatory Borrowings as set forth in such Section. 
  
 (f) Borrowings to reimburse Unpaid Drawings shall be made upon the notice specified in Section 3.4(a). 
  
 (g) Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower or the
Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, to confirm in writing any notice it may give hereunder by telephone, the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent may act prior to receipt of written confirmation without liability upon the
basis of such telephonic notice believed by the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent in good faith to be from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be. In each such case, the Borrower
and the Canadian Borrower each hereby waives the right to dispute the Administrative Agent’s and the Canadian Administrative Agent’s record of the terms of any such telephonic notice. 
  
 2.4. Disbursement of Funds. (a) No later than 12:00 Noon (New York
time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing (including Mandatory 
  

 50 








 Borrowings), each Lender will make available its pro rata portion, if any, of each Borrowing requested to be made on such
date in the manner provided below, provided that all Swingline Loans shall be made available in the full amount thereof by the Swingline Lender no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date requested. 
  
 (b) Each Lender shall make available all amounts it is to fund to the
Borrower under any Borrowing in the applicable currency for its applicable Commitments, and in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office and the Administrative Agent will (except in the case of
Mandatory Borrowings and Borrowings to repay Unpaid Drawings) make available to the Borrower, by depositing to the Borrower’s account at the Administrative Agent’s Office the aggregate of the amounts so made available in Dollars. Each
Canadian Lender shall make available all amounts it is to fund to the Canadian Borrower under any Canadian Borrowing in the applicable currency for its applicable Commitments, and in immediately available funds to the Canadian Administrative Agent
at the Canadian Administrative Agent’s Office and the Canadian Administrative Agent will (except in the case of Mandatory Borrowings and Borrowings to repay Unpaid Drawings) make available to the Canadian Borrower, by depositing to the Canadian
Borrower’s account (as designated by it in a written notice to the Canadian Administrative Agent from time to time) the aggregate of the amounts so made available in Canadian Dollars or Dollars as applicable. Unless the Administrative Agent and
the Canadian Administrative Agent (in the case of Canadian Borrowings) shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of any such Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian
Administrative Agent (in the case of Canadian Borrowings) its portion of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent (in the case of Canadian Borrowings) may assume that such
Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent (in the case of Canadian Borrowings) on such date of Borrowing, and the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent (in the case of
Canadian Borrowings), in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion and without any obligation to do so) make available to the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, a corresponding amount. If such corresponding
amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent (in the case of Canadian Borrowings) by such Lender and the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent (in the case of Canadian
Borrowings) has made available same to the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent (in the case of Canadian Borrowings) shall be entitled to recover such corresponding
amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s or the Canadian Administrative Agent (in the case of Canadian Borrowings) demand therefor the Administrative Agent or the
Canadian Administrative Agent (in the case of Canadian Borrowings) shall promptly notify the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, and the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, shall immediately pay such
corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent (in the case of Canadian Borrowings). The Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent (in the case of Canadian 
  

 51 








 Borrowings) shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may
be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent (in the case of Canadian Borrowings) to the Borrower or the
Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent (in the case of Canadian Borrowings), at a rate per annum equal to (i) if paid by such Lender,
the Federal Funds Effective Rate (or, in the case of an amount owing in respect of a Canadian Borrowing, the rate reasonably determined by the Canadian Administrative Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount) or (ii) if paid by the Borrower
or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, the then-applicable rate of interest or fees, calculated in accordance with Section 2.8, for the respective Loans. 
  

(c) Nothing in this Section 2.4 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any
rights that the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other
Lender to fulfill its commitments hereunder). 
  
 2.5.
Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, (i) on the Term Loan Maturity Date, the then-unpaid Term Loans, in Dollars. The Borrower shall repay to the
Administrative Agent in Dollars, for the benefit of the applicable Lenders, on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the then-unpaid US Revolving Credit Loans and Canadian Revolving Credit Loans made to the Borrower. The Canadian Borrower shall repay
to the Canadian Administrative Agent in Dollars or C$, as the case may be, for the benefit of the applicable Lenders, on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the then-unpaid Canadian Revolving Credit Loans made to the Canadian Borrower. The Borrower
shall repay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars, for the account of the Swingline Lender, on the Swingline Maturity Date, the then-unpaid Swingline Loans. 
  

 52 








 (b) The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent, in Dollars, for the benefit of the Lenders of
Term Loans, on each date set forth below (each a “Repayment Date”), the principal amount of the Term Loans equal to (x) the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans immediately after closing on the Closing Date multiplied by (y)
the percentage set forth below opposite such Repayment Date (each a “Repayment Amount”):

 ; provided, in the event any
New Term Loans are made, such New Term Loans shall be repaid on each Installment Date occurring on or after the applicable Increased Amount Date in an amount equal to (i) the aggregate principal amount of New Term Loans of the applicable Series of
New Term Loans, times (ii) the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (y) the amount of all other Term Loans being repaid on such Installment Date and (z) the total aggregate principal amount of all other Term Loans outstanding on such Increased
Amount Date. 
  
 (c) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with
its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, to the appropriate lending office of such Lender resulting 
  

 53 








 from each Loan made by such lending office of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and
interest payable and paid to such lending office of such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. 
  
 (d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 14.6(b), and a subaccount for each Lender, in which Register and subaccounts
(taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount and currency of each Loan made hereunder, whether such Loan is a Term Loan, a US Revolving Credit Loan, a Canadian Revolving Credit Loan or a Swingline Loan, the Type of each Loan made and the
Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, to each Lender or the Swingline Lender hereunder and (iii)
the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, and each Lender’s share thereof. 
  
 (e) The entries made in the Register and accounts and subaccounts maintained
pursuant to paragraphs (c) and (d) of this Section 2.5 shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower therein recorded;
provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such account, such Register or such subaccount, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the
Borrower or the Canadian Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
  
 2.6. Conversions and Continuations. (a) Each of the Borrower and the
Canadian Borrower shall have the option on any Business Day to convert all or a portion equal to at least the Minimum Borrowing Amount of the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans made to such Borrower (as applicable)
of one Type into a Borrowing or Borrowings of another Type in the same currency and the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, shall have the option on any Business Day to continue the outstanding principal amount of any Eurodollar
Term Loans or Eurodollar Revolving Credit Loans as Eurodollar Term Loans or Eurodollar Revolving Credit Loans, as the case may be, for an additional Interest Period, provided that (i) no partial conversion of BA Loans or Eurodollar Term Loans or
Eurodollar Revolving Credit Loans shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of BA Loans or Eurodollar Term Loans or Eurodollar Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing to less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount, (ii) Cdn ABR
Loans and ABR Loans may not be converted into Eurodollar Term Loans or Eurodollar Revolving Credit Loans and Canadian Prime Loans may not be converted into BA Loans if a Default or Event of Default is in existence on the date of the conversion and
the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such conversion, (iii) BA Loans and Eurodollar Loans may not be continued as BA Loans or Eurodollar Loans, respectively, for an
additional Interest Period if a Default or Event of Default is in existence on the date of the proposed continuation and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole 
  

 54 








 discretion not to permit such continuation, (iv) no conversion or continuation of BA Loans may be made on a day other
than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (v) Borrowings resulting from conversions pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be limited in number as provided in Section 2.2. Each such conversion or continuation shall be effected by
the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, by giving the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office prior to 12:00 Noon (New York time) at least three Business
Days’ (or one Business Day’s notice in the case of a conversion into Cdn ABR Loans and ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Loans) prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) (each a “Notice of Conversion or
Continuation”) specifying the Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans to be so converted or continued, the Type of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans to be converted or continued into and, if such Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans are to
be converted into or continued as BA Loans or Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent (or the Canadian Administrative Agent, in the case of Canadian Borrowings) shall give each Lender notice
as promptly as practicable of any such proposed conversion or continuation affecting any of its Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans. 
  
 (b) If any Default or Event of Default is in existence at the time of any proposed continuation of any BA Loans or Eurodollar Loans, as the case may be,
and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuation, such BA Loans or Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted on the last day of the current Interest
Period (i) in respect of Eurodollar Loans, into ABR Loans or Cdn ABR Loans (in the case of the Canadian Borrower) and (ii) in respect of BA Loans, into Canadian Prime Loans. If upon the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of BA Loans or
Eurodollar Loans, the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, has failed to elect a new Interest Period to be applicable thereto as provided in paragraph (a) above, the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, shall be
deemed to have elected to continue such Borrowing of BA Loans or Eurodollar Loans, as the case may be, into a Borrowing of Canadian Prime Loans or ABR Loans or Cdn ABR Loans (in the case of the Canadian Borrower), as the case may be, effective as of
the expiration date of such current Interest Period. 
  
 2.7.
Pro Rata Borrowings. Each Borrowing of Term Loans under this Agreement shall be granted by the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their then-applicable Term Loan Commitments. Each Borrowing of US Revolving Credit Loans under this Agreement
shall be granted by the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their then-applicable US Revolving Credit Commitments. Each Borrowing of Canadian Revolving Credit Loans under this Agreement shall be granted by the Canadian Lenders (or their Related
Affiliates if applicable) pro rata on the basis of their then-applicable Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments allocated to the Canadian Borrower or the Borrower, as applicable. Each Borrowing of New Term Loans under this Agreement shall be granted
by the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their then-applicable New Term Loan Commitments. It is understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans hereunder and that each Lender shall be
obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its commitments hereunder. 
  

 55 








 2.8. Interest. (a) (i) The unpaid principal amount of each ABR Loan shall bear interest from the
date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum that shall at all times be the Applicable ABR Margin plus the ABR in effect from time to time, (ii) the unpaid principal amount of each Cdn ABR
Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum that shall at all times be the Applicable ABR Margin plus the Cdn ABR in effect from time to time, and (iii)
the unpaid principal amount of each Canadian Prime Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum that shall at all times be the Applicable ABR Margin plus
the Canadian Prime Rate in effect from time to time. 
  
 (b) (i)
The unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum that shall at all times be the Applicable Eurodollar
Margin in effect from time to time plus the relevant Eurodollar Rate and (ii) the Canadian Borrower shall pay to each Lender that accepts or advances a BA Loan, as a condition of and at the time of such acceptance or advance, a fee at the rate of
the then Applicable Stamping Fee calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days on the face amount at maturity (or the principal amount in the case of a BA Equivalent Loan) of such Bankers’ Acceptance for the period from and including the date
of acceptance (or advance in the case of a BA Equivalent Loan) of such Bankers’ Acceptance for the period from and including the date of acceptance to but excluding the maturity date of such Bankers’ Acceptance. 
  
 (c) If all or a portion of (i) the principal amount of any Loan or (ii) any
interest payable thereon shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum that is (x) in the case of overdue principal, the rate that would
otherwise be applicable thereto plus 2% or (y) in the case of any overdue interest, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the rate described in Section 2.8(a) plus 2% from and including the date of such non-payment to but
excluding the date on which such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment). 
  
 (d) Interest on each Loan shall accrue from and including the date of any Borrowing to but excluding the date of any repayment thereof and shall be payable (i) in respect of each Canadian Prime Loan, Cdn ABR Loan and
ABR Loan, quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December, (ii) in respect of each Eurodollar Loan, on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of an Interest Period in excess of three
months, on each date occurring at three-month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period, (iii) in respect of each Loan (except, other than in the case of prepayments, any Canadian Prime Loan, Cdn ABR Loan or ABR Loan), on any prepayment
(on the amount prepaid), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand. 
  

 56 








 (e) All computations of interest hereunder shall be made in accordance with Section 5.5. 
  
 (f) The Administrative Agent, upon determining the interest rate for any
Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, shall promptly notify the Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of the Canadian Borrower) and the relevant Lenders thereof. Each such determination shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive
and binding on all parties hereto. 
  
 2.9. Interest
Periods. 
  
 (a) At the time the Borrower or the Canadian
Borrower, as applicable, gives a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation in respect of the making of, or conversion into or continuation as, a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable
thereto) or prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, shall have the right to
elect by giving the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent (in the case of the Canadian Borrower) written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) the Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing, which Interest
Period shall, at the option of the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, be a one, two, three, six or (in the case of Revolving Credit Loans, if available to all the Lenders making such loans as determined by such Lenders in good faith
based on prevailing market conditions) a nine or twelve month period, provided that the initial Interest Period may be for a period less than one month if agreed upon by the Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of the Canadian Borrower) and the
Agents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above: 
  
 (i) the initial Interest Period for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans shall commence on the date of such Borrowing (including the date of any conversion from a Borrowing of ABR Loans or Cdn ABR Loans, as applicable)
and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Borrowing shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period expires; 
  
 (ii) if any Interest Period relating to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Credit Loans begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month or
begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period;

  
 (iii) if any Interest Period would otherwise
expire on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day, provided that if any Interest Period in respect of a Eurodollar Loan would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day
but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day; and 
  

 57 








 (iv) the Borrower shall not be entitled to elect any Interest Period in respect of any
Eurodollar Loan if such Interest Period would extend beyond the applicable Maturity Date of such Loan. 
  
 (b) At the time the Canadian Borrower gives a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation in respect of the making of, or continuation into or
continuation as, a Borrowing of BA Loans prior to 12:00 noon. (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to the applicable date of making or continuation of such BA Loans, the Canadian Borrower shall have the right to elect by giving the
Canadian Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of the Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the Canadian Borrower, be one, two, three or six
months (or in the case of Canadian Revolving Credit Loans, if available to all the Lenders making such loans as determined by such Lenders in good faith based on prevailing market conditions), a nine or twelve month period as well; provided that, in
each case, the initial Interest Period for BA Loans advanced on the Closing Date may be for a period less than one month if agreed upon by the Canadian Borrower and the Canadian Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained above: 
  

	 	(i)	the initial Interest Period for any Borrowing of BA Loans shall commence on the date of such Borrowing (including the date of any continuation from a Borrowing of Canadian Prime
Loans) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Borrowing shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period expires; 

  

	 	(ii)	the Canadian Borrower shall not be entitled to elect any Interest Period in respect of any BA Loan if such Interest Period would extend beyond the applicable Maturity Date of such
Loan; 

  

	 	(iii)	no BA Loan shall mature on a day which is not a Business Day and if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire
on the next succeeding Business Day; and 

  

	 	(iv)	if the Canadian Borrower fails to provide a Notice of Continuation within the time period required in Section 2.6(a) in respect of BA Loans, such BA Loans shall automatically be
converted into Canadian Prime Loans on the last day of the Interest period applicable thereto. 

  

 58 








 2.10. Increased Costs, Illegality, etc. (a) In the event that (x) in the case of clause (i) below, the
Administrative Agent or (y) in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) below, any Lender shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto):

  
 (i) on any date for determining the
Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period that (x) deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans comprising such Eurodollar Borrowing are not generally available in the relevant market or (y) by reason of any changes arising on or after the Closing
Date affecting the interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of Eurodollar Rate; or 
  
 (ii) at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased
costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any Eurodollar Loans (other than any such increase or reduction attributable to taxes) because of (x) any change since the date hereof in any applicable law,
governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order), such as, for example, without limitation, a
change in official reserve requirements, and/or (y) other circumstances affecting the interbank Eurodollar market or the position of such Lender in such market; or 
  
 (iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any Eurodollar Loan has become unlawful by compliance
by such Lender in good faith with any law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith
would not be unlawful), or has become impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the date hereof that materially and adversely affects the interbank Eurodollar market; 
  
 then, and in any such event, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent, in the case of clause (i) above) shall within a reasonable time
thereafter give notice (if by telephone, confirmed in writing) to the Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of the Canadian Borrower) and to the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly
transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (i) above, Eurodollar Term Loans and Eurodollar Revolving Credit Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower (on
its own behalf and on behalf of the Canadian Borrower) and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no longer exist (which notice the Administrative Agent agrees to give at such time when such
circumstances no longer exist), and any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion given by the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower with respect to Eurodollar Term Loans or Eurodollar Revolving Credit Loans that have not yet been incurred shall be
deemed rescinded by the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, shall pay to such Lender, promptly after receipt of written demand therefor such additional
amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its reasonable discretion shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Lender for such increased costs or
reductions in amounts 
  

 59 








 receivable hereunder (it being agreed that a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing in
reasonable detail the basis for the calculation thereof, submitted to the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, by such Lender shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto)
and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, shall take one of the actions specified in Section 2.10(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law.

  
 (b) At any time that any Eurodollar Loan is affected by the
circumstances described in Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, may (and in the case of a Eurodollar Loan affected pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(iii) shall) either (x) if the affected Eurodollar Loan
is then being made pursuant to a Borrowing, cancel said Borrowing by giving the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed promptly in writing) thereof on the same date that the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, was
notified by a Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii) or (y) if the affected Eurodollar Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to convert each such
Eurodollar Revolving Credit Loan and Eurodollar Term Loan into an ABR Loan or Cdn ABR Loan, if applicable, provided that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated in the same manner pursuant to
this Section 2.10(b). 
  
 (c) In the event that the Canadian
Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that there does not exist a normal market in Canada for the purchase
and sale of bankers’ acceptances, then, and in any such event, the Administrative Agent shall within a reasonable time thereafter give notice (if by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower and each of the other
Lenders of such determination. Thereafter BA Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the
Administrative Agent no longer exist (which notice the Administrative Agent agrees to give at such time when such circumstances no longer exist), and any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation given by the Borrower with respect to BA Loans
that have not yet been incurred shall be deemed rescinded by the Borrower. Any maturing BA Loans shall thereafter, and until contrary notice is provided by the Administrative Agent, be continued as a Canadian Prime Loan. 
  
 (d) If, after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or
regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, central bank or comparable agency charged
with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by a Lender or its parent with any request or directive made or adopted after the date hereof regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority,
association, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or its parent’s or its Related Affiliate’s capital or assets as a 
  

 60 








 consequence of such Lender’s commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or its
parent or its Related Affiliate could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or its parent’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time,
promptly after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or its parent for
such reduction, it being understood and agreed, however, that a Lender shall not be entitled to such compensation as a result of such Lender’s compliance with, or pursuant to any request or directive to comply with, any such law, rule or
regulation as in effect on the date hereof. Each Lender, upon determining in good faith that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.10(d), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower (on its own behalf and on
behalf of the Canadian Borrower) which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts, although the failure to give any such notice shall not, subject to Section 2.13, release or diminish any of
the Borrower’s or the Canadian Borrower’s, as the case may be, obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10(d) upon receipt of such notice. 
  
 (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of Canadian Revolving Credit Loans affected by the circumstances described in
Section 2.10(a)(i), as promptly as practicable but in no event later than three Business Days after the giving of the required notice by the Canadian Administrative Agent with respect to such circumstances, the Administrative Agent (in consultation
with the Lenders) shall negotiate with the Borrower in good faith in order to ascertain whether a substitute interest rate (a “Substitute Rate”) may be agreed upon for the maintaining of existing Canadian Revolving Credit Loans. If
a Substitute Rate is agreed upon by the Borrower and all the Lenders, such Substitute Rate shall apply. If a Substitute Rate is not so agreed upon by the Borrower and all the Lenders within such time, each Lender’s Canadian Revolving Credit
Loans shall thereafter bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of (i) the rate certified by such Lender to be its costs of funds (from such sources as it may reasonably select out of those sources then available to it) for such Canadian Revolving
Credit Loans, plus (ii) the Applicable Eurodollar Margin. 
  
 2.11. Compensation. If (a) any payment of principal of any BA Loan or Eurodollar Loan is made by the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest
Period for such BA Loan or Eurodollar Loan as a result of a payment or conversion pursuant to Section 2.5, 2.6, 2.10, 5.1, 5.2 or 14.7, as a result of acceleration of the maturity of the Loans pursuant to Section 11 or for any other reason, (b) any
Borrowing of BA Loan or Eurodollar Loans is not made as a result of a withdrawn Notice of Borrowing, (c) any ABR Loan is not converted into a Eurodollar Loan as a result of a withdrawn Notice of Conversion or Continuation, (d) any Canadian Prime
Loan is not continued into a BA Loan as a result of a withdrawn Notice of Continuation, (e) any BA Loan or Eurodollar Loan is not continued as a BA Loan or Eurodollar Loan, as the case may be, as a result of a withdrawn Notice of Conversion or
Continuation or (f) any prepayment of principal of any BA Loan or Eurodollar Loan is not made as a result of a withdrawn notice of 
  

 61 








 prepayment pursuant to Section 5.1 or 5.2, the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, shall, after
receipt of a written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for
any additional losses, costs or expenses that such Lender may reasonably incur as a result of such payment, failure to convert, failure to continue or failure to prepay, including any loss, cost or expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits)
actually incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such BA Loan or Eurodollar Loan. 
  
 2.12. Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the
operation of Section 2.10(a)(ii), 2.10(a)(iii), 2.10(b), 2.10(c), 3.5 or 5.4 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy
considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event, provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory
disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such Section. Nothing in this Section 2.12 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the
case may be, or the right of any Lender provided in Section 2.10, 3.5 or 5.4. 
  
 2.13. Notice of Certain Costs. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent any notice required by Section 2.10, 2.11, 3.5 or 5.4 is given by any Lender more than 180 days after
such Lender has knowledge (or should have had knowledge) of the occurrence of the event giving rise to the additional cost, reduction in amounts, loss, tax or other additional amounts described in such Sections, such Lender shall not be entitled to
compensation under Section 2.10, 2.11, 3.5 or 5.4, as the case may be, for any such amounts incurred or accruing prior to the giving of such notice to the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be. 
  
 2.14. Bankers’ Acceptances 
  
 (a) The Canadian Administrative Agent, promptly following receipt of a
Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation, requesting BA Loans, shall advise each applicable Canadian Lender of the face or principal amount and term of each BA Loan to be accepted (and purchased) or advanced by it. The aggregate face or
principal amount of BA Loans to be accepted or advanced by a Canadian Lender shall be determined by the Canadian Administrative Agent by reference to that Canadian Lender’s applicable pro rata portion of the issue or advance of BA Loans, except
that the aggregate face amount of Bankers’ Acceptances to be accepted by the applicable Canadian Lenders shall be increased or reduced by the Canadian Administrative Agent in its sole discretion as may be necessary to ensure that the face
amount of the Bankers’ Acceptance to be accepted by each applicable Canadian Lender would be C$100,000 or a whole multiple thereof. For greater certainty, the foregoing C$100,000 minimum face amount of Bankers’ Acceptances for each Lender
shall not apply to BA Equivalent Loans. 
  

 62 








 (b) On the date specified in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation on which a BA Loan is to be
made, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall advise the Canadian Borrower as to the Canadian Administrative Agent’s determination of the BA Discount Rate for the BA Loans to be purchased or advanced, as the case may be. 
  
 (c) The Canadian Borrower shall sell and each Canadian Lender shall purchase
the Bankers’ Acceptance accepted by it at the applicable BA Discount Rate. Subject to clause (d) below, each Canadian Lender shall provide the Canadian Administrative Agent, for the account of the Canadian Borrower, the BA Discount Proceeds
less the Applicable Stamping Fee payable by the Canadian Borrower with respect to the Bankers’ Acceptance. 
  
 (d) In the event the Canadian Borrower requests a continuation of BA Loans for a further Interest Period, or requests conversion from Canadian Prime Loans
into BA Loans in accordance with Section 2.6, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall make arrangements satisfactory to it to ensure the BA Discount Proceeds from the replacement BA Loans are applied to repay the face amount of the maturing BA Loans
or the principal amount of such loans to be converted (the “Maturing Amount”) and the Canadian Borrower should concurrently pay to the Canadian Administrative Agent any positive difference between the Maturing Amount and such BA
Discount Proceeds. 
  
 (e) Each Canadian Lender may from time to
time hold, sell, rediscount or otherwise dispose of any or all Bankers’ Acceptances accepted and purchased by it. 
  
 (f) In order to facilitate the issuance of Bankers’ Acceptances pursuant to this Agreement, the Canadian Borrower hereby authorizes each of the
Canadian Lenders, and appoints each of the Canadian Lenders as the Canadian Borrower’s attorney, to complete, sign and endorse drafts or depository bills (as defined in the Depository Bills and Notes Act (Canada) (each such executed
draft or bill being herein referred to as a “Draft”) on its behalf in handwritten form or by facsimile or mechanical signature or otherwise in accordance with the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation and, once so
completed, signed and endorsed to accept them as Bankers’ Acceptances under this Agreement and then if applicable, purchase, discount or negotiate such Bankers’ Acceptances in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Drafts so
completed, signed, endorsed and negotiated on behalf of the Canadian Borrower by a Canadian Lender shall bind the Canadian Borrower as fully and effectively as if so performed by an Authorized Officer of the Canadian Borrower. Each draft of a
Bankers’ Acceptance completed, signed or endorsed by a Canadian Lender shall mature on the last day of the term thereof. All Bankers’ Acceptances to be accepted by a particular Canadian Lender shall, at the option of such Canadian Lender,
be issued in the form of depository bills made payable originally to and deposited with The Depository for Securities Limited pursuant to the Depository Bills and Notes Act (Canada). 
  
 (g) Any Drafts to be used for Bankers’ Acceptances which are held by a
Canadian Lender shall be held in safekeeping with the same degree of care as if they 
  

 63 








 were such Canadian Lender’s own property being kept at the place at which they are to be held. The Canadian Borrower
may, by written notice to the Canadian Administrative Agent, designate persons other than Authorized Officers authorized to give the Canadian Administrative Agent instructions regarding the manner in which Drafts are to be completed and the times at
which they are to be issued; provided however that receipt by the Canadian Administrative Agent of a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation requesting an advance or continuation into, Bankers’ Acceptances shall be deemed to be sufficient
authority from Authorized Officers or such designated persons for each of the Canadian Lenders to complete, and issue drafts in accordance with such notice. None of the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Canadian Lenders nor any of their
respective directors, officers, employees or representatives shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under this Section 2.14(g) except for their own respective gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined
by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
  
 (h)
The Canadian Borrower waives presentment for payment and any other defense to the payment of any amounts due to a Canadian Lender in respect of a Bankers’ Acceptance accepted and purchased by it pursuant to this Agreement which might exist
solely by reason of the Bankers’ Acceptance being held, at the maturity thereof, by the Canadian Lender in its own right and the Canadian Borrower agrees not to claim any days of grace if the Canadian Lender as holder sues the Canadian Borrower
on the Bankers’ Acceptance for payment of the amount payable by the Canadian Borrower thereunder. Each Bankers’ Acceptance shall mature and the face amount thereof shall be due and payable on the last day of the Interest Period applicable
thereto. 
  
 (i) Whenever the Canadian Borrower requests a Loan
under this Agreement by way of Bankers’ Acceptances, each Non-Acceptance Lender shall, in lieu of accepting a Bankers’ Acceptance, make a BA Equivalent Loan by way of Discount Note in an amount equal to the Non-Acceptance Lender’s
pro rata portion of the BA Loan. All terms of this Agreement applicable to Bankers’ Acceptances shall apply equally to Discount Notes evidencing BA Equivalent Loans with such changes as may in the context be necessary. For greater
certainty: 
  

	 	(i)	the term of a Discount Note shall be the same as the Interest Period for Bankers’ Acceptances accepted on the same date of the Borrowing in respect of the same BA Loan;


  

	 	(ii)	an acceptance fee will be payable in respect of a Discount Note and shall be calculated at the same rate and in the same manner as the Applicable Stamping Fee in respect of a
Bankers’ Acceptance; and 

  

	 	(iii)	the proceeds from a BA Equivalent Loan shall be equal to the BA Discount Proceeds of the Discount Note. 

  

 64 








 2.15. Incremental Facilities 
  
 Borrower may by written notice to Syndication Agent elect to request (A) prior to the Revolving Credit Commitment Maturity
Date, an increase to the existing US Revolving Credit Commitments (any such increase, the “New Revolving Loan Commitments”) and/or (B) the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (the “New Term Loan
Commitments”), by an amount not in excess of $100,000,000 in the aggregate and not less than $25,000,000 individually (or such lesser amount which shall be approved by Administrative Agent and Syndication Agent or such lesser amount that
shall constitute the difference between $100,000,000 and all such New Revolving Loan Commitments and New Term Loan Commitments obtained prior to such date), and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess of that amount. Each such notice shall
specify (A) the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which Borrower proposes that the New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than 10
Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to Syndication Agent and (B) the identity of each Lender or other Person that is an eligible assignee pursuant to Section 14.6(b) (each, a “New Revolving Loan Lender” or
“New Term Loan Lender”, as applicable) to whom Borrower proposes any portion of such New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, be allocated and the amounts of such allocations; provided that
Borrower shall first approach the Lenders to provide all of the New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments prior to approaching any other Person that is an eligible assignee pursuant to Section 14.6(b); provided
further that any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a New Revolving Loan Commitment or a New Term Loan
Commitment. Such New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments shall become effective, as of such Increased Amount Date; provided that (1) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after
giving effect to such New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments, as applicable; (2) both before and after giving effect to the making of any Series of New Term Loans, each of the conditions set forth in Section 7 shall be
satisfied; (3) Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be in pro forma compliance with each of the covenants set forth in Sections 10.9 and 10.10 as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter after giving effect to such New Revolving Loan
Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments, as applicable; (4) the New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, shall be effected pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements executed and delivered by Borrower, Syndication
Agent and Administrative Agent, and each of which shall be recorded in the Register and shall be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 5.4(b); (5) Borrower shall make any payments required pursuant to Section 2.11 in connection with the
New Revolving Loan Commitments or New Term Loan Commitments, as applicable; and (6) Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by Administrative Agent in connection with any such
transaction. Any New Term Loans made on an Increased Amount Date shall be designated, a separate series (a “Series”) of New Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement. 
  

 65 








 On any Increased Amount Date on which New Revolving Loan Commitments are effected, subject to the
satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (a) each of the Lenders with US Revolving Credit Commitments shall assign to each of the New Revolving Loan Lenders, and each of the New Revolving Loan Lenders shall purchase from each of the
Lenders with US Revolving Credit Commitments, at the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest), such interests in the US Revolving Credit Loans outstanding on such Increased Amount Date as shall be necessary in order that, after
giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such US Revolving Credit Loans will be held by existing Lenders with US Revolving Credit Loans and New Revolving Loan Lenders ratably in accordance with their US Revolving Credit Commitments after
giving effect to the addition of such New Revolving Loan Commitments to the US Revolving Credit Commitments, (b) each New Revolving Loan Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a US Revolving Credit Commitment and each Loan made thereunder (a
“New Revolving Loan”) shall be deemed, for all purposes, a US Revolving Credit Loan and (c) each New Revolving Loan Lender shall become a Lender with respect to the New Revolving Loan Commitment and all matters relating thereto.

  
 On any Increased Amount Date on which any New Term Loan
Commitments of any Series are effective, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each New Term Loan Lender of any Series shall make a Loan to Company (a “New Term Loan”) in an amount equal to its New
Term Loan Commitment of such Series, and (ii) each New Term Loan Lender of any Series shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the New Term Loan Commitment of such Series and the New Term Loans of such Series made pursuant thereto.

  
 Administrative Agent shall notify Lenders promptly upon
receipt of Borrower’s notice of each Increased Amount Date and in respect thereof (y) the New Revolving Loan Commitments and the New Revolving Loan Lenders or the Series of New Term Loan Commitments and the New Term Loan Lenders of such Series,
as applicable, and (z) in the case of each notice to any Lender with US Revolving Credit Loans, the respective interests in such Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans, in each case subject to the assignments contemplated by this Section. 

 
 The terms and provisions of the New Term Loans and New Term Loan
Commitments of any Series shall be, except as otherwise set forth herein or in the Joinder Agreement, identical to the Term Loans to the extent they are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Term Loans. The terms and
provisions of the New Revolving Loans shall be identical to the US Revolving Credit Loans. In any event (i) the weighted average life to maturity of all New Term Loans of any Series shall be no shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of
the Revolving Credit Loans and the Terms Loans, (ii) the applicable New Term Loan Maturity Date of each Series shall be no shorter than the final maturity of the Revolving Credit Loans and the Term Loans, (iii) the rate of interest applicable to the
New Term Loans of each Series shall be determined by Borrower and the applicable new Lenders and shall be set forth in each applicable Joinder Agreement; provided however that the interest rate margin applicable to the New Term Loans
shall not be greater than the highest interest rate that may, under any 
  

 66 








 circumstances (including, without limitation, any issuance at a discount or as a result of the payment of any fees), be
payable with respect to the Term Loans plus 0.25% per annum unless the interest rate margin with respect to the Term Loans is increased so as to be equal to, or be 0.25% per annum lower than, the interest rate margin applicable to the New
Term Loans, provided that such limitation shall not apply to the extent such New Term Loans are junior in collateral rights to the Term Loans, in which case customary terms shall apply consistent with the other provisions of this Agreement
and the then prevailing market conditions. Each Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the
Syndication Agent and Administrative Agent, to effect the provision of this Section 2.15. 
  
 SECTION 3. Letters of Credit 
  
 3.1. Letters of Credit. (a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date and prior to the L/C Maturity Date, (i) the Borrower, may request that the US Letter
of Credit Issuer issue for the account of the Borrower a standby letter of credit or letters of credit in Dollars (the “US Letters of Credit”) and (ii) the Canadian Borrower may request that the Canadian Letter of Credit Issuer
issue for the account of the Canadian Borrower a standby letter of credit or letters of credit in Canadian Dollars (the “Canadian Letters of Credit” and with the US Letters of Credit, the “Letters of Credit” and
each a “Letter of Credit”) in such form as may be approved by the US Letter of Credit Issuer or the Canadian Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, in its reasonable discretion. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no US Letter of Credit shall be issued
the Stated Amount of which, when added to the US Letter of Credit Outstanding at such time, would exceed the US Letter of Credit Commitment then in effect; (ii) no US Letter of Credit shall be issued the Stated Amount of which would cause the
aggregate amount of the Lender’s US Revolving Credit Exposures at such time to exceed the US Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect; (iii) no Canadian Letter of Credit shall be issued the Stated Amount of which when added to Canadian Letter
of Credit Outstanding would exceed the Canadian Letter of Credit Commitment then in effect, (iv) no Canadian Letter of Credit shall be issued the Stated Amount of which would cause the aggregate amount of the Canadian Lender’s Revolving Credit
Exposure at such time to exceed the Canadian Revolving Credit Commitment, (v) each Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date occurring no later than one year after the date of issuance thereof, unless otherwise agreed upon by the Administrative
Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, and the Letter of Credit Issuer, provided that in no event shall such expiration date occur later than the L/C Maturity Date; (vi) each US Letter of Credit shall be denominated in
Dollars; (vii) each Canadian Letter of Credit shall be denominated in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars, (viii) no Letter of Credit shall be issued if it would be illegal under any applicable law for the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit to have a
Letter of Credit issued in its favor; (ix) no Letter of Credit shall be issued by a Letter of Credit Issuer after it has received a written notice from the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower or any Lender stating that a Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing until such time as the Letter of Credit Issuer shall have received a written notice of 
  

 67 








 (x) rescission of such notice from the party or parties originally delivering such notice or (y) the waiver of such
Default or Event of Default in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.1; and (x) any Letter of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower shall be made by a Canadian Lender described in clause (a) of that definition or a permitted
assigned of such Canadian Lender that is a Canadian Resident. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the issuance of US Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower shall be deemed a utilization of the US Revolving Credit Commitments
allocated to the Borrower, and the issuance of the Canadian Letters of Credit for the account of the Canadian Borrower shall be deemed a utilization of the Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments. 
  
 (c) Upon at least one Business Day’s prior written notice (or telephonic
notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent and the US Letter of Credit Issuer (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the applicable Lenders), the Borrower shall have the right, on any day,
permanently to terminate or reduce the US Letter of Credit Commitment in whole or in part, provided that, after giving effect to such termination or reduction, the US Letter of Credit Outstanding shall not exceed the US Letter of Credit
Commitment. 
  
 (d) The parties hereto agree that the Existing
Letters of Credit shall be deemed Letters of Credit for all purposes under this Agreement, without any further action by the Borrower. 
  
 3.2. Letter of Credit Requests. (a) Whenever the Borrower desires that a US Letter of Credit be issued for its account, it shall give the
Administrative Agent and the US Letter of Credit Issuer at least five (or such lesser number as may be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer) Business Days’ written notice thereof. Each notice shall be executed
by the Borrower and shall be in the form of Exhibit H-1 (each a “US Letter of Credit Request”). The Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit copies of each US Letter of Credit Request to each Lender. 
  
 (b) Whenever the Canadian Borrower desires that a Canadian Letter of Credit
be issued for its account, it shall give the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Letter of Credit Issuer at least five (or such lesser number as may be agreed upon by the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Letter of Credit
Issuer) Business Days’ written notice thereof in the form of an executed Canadian Letter of Credit Request in the form of Exhibit H-2 (which shall, among other things, specify whether such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in Dollars or
Canadian Dollars) (each a “Canadian Letter of Credit Request” and, together with the US Letter of Credit Request, the “Letter of Credit Request”). 
  
 (c) The making of each Letter of Credit Request shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the Borrower or the
Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, that the Letter of Credit may be issued in accordance with, and will not violate the requirements of, Section 3.1(b). 
  

 68 








 3.3. Letter of Credit Participations. (a) Immediately upon the issuance by the US Letter of Credit
Issuer of any US Letter of Credit, the US Letter of Credit Issuer shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each other Lender that has a US Revolving Credit Commitment (each such other Lender, in its capacity under this Section 3.3, an
“US L/C Participant”), and each such US L/C Participant shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from the US Letter of Credit Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and
participation (each an “US L/C Participation”), to the extent of such US L/C Participant’s US Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in such Letter of Credit, each substitute letter of credit, each drawing made thereunder and
the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement with respect thereto, and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto (although Letter of Credit Fees will be paid directly to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the US
L/C Participants as provided in Section 4.1(b) and the US L/C Participants shall have no right to receive any portion of any Fronting Fees). 
  
 (b) Immediately upon the issuance by the Canadian Letter of Credit Issuer of any Canadian Letter of Credit on the account of the Canadian Borrower, the
Canadian Letter of Credit Issuer shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each other Canadian Lender that has a Canadian Revolving Credit Commitment, to the extent the Canadian Letter of Credit Obligations are owed by the Canadian Borrower,
(each such other Lender, in its capacity under this Section 3.3, an “Cdn L/C Participant” and collectively the “Cdn L/C Participants”), and each such Cdn L/C Participant shall be deemed irrevocably and
unconditionally to have purchased and received from the Canadian Letter of Credit Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (each a “Cdn L/C Participation”), to the extent of such Cdn L/C
Participant’s Canadian Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in such Canadian Letter of Credit, each substitute letter of credit, each drawing made thereunder and the obligations of the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be,
under this Agreement with respect thereto, and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto. 
  
 (c) Letter of Credit Fees will be paid directly to the Canadian Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Cdn L/C Participants for Letters of
Credit issued on behalf of the Canadian Borrower as provided in Section 4.1(d). The Cdn L/C Participants shall have no right to receive any portion of any Fronting Fees. 
  
 (d) In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, the relevant Letter of Credit Issuer shall have no obligation
relative to the L/C Participants other than to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any
action taken or omitted to be taken by the relevant Letter of Credit Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not create for the Letter
of Credit Issuer any resulting liability. 
  
 (e) In the event
that the Letter of Credit Issuer makes any payment under any Letter of Credit issued by it and the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, shall not have repaid such amount in full to the respective Letter of Credit 
  

 69 








 Issuer pursuant to Section 3.4(a), the Letter of Credit Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent or the
Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, and each applicable L/C Participant of such failure, and each such L/C Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable,,
for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, the amount of such L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed payment in Dollars and in immediately available funds; provided, however, that no L/C
Participant shall be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, for the account of the respective Letter of Credit Issuer its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed amount
arising from any wrongful payment made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of the Letter of Credit Issuer. If the Letter of Credit
Issuer so notifies, prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on any Business Day, any L/C Participant required to fund a payment under a Letter of Credit, such L/C Participant shall make available to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian
Administrative Agent, as applicable, for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer such L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in immediately available funds. If and to the
extent such L/C Participant shall not have so made its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of such payment available to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, for the account of the Letter of
Credit Issuer, such L/C Participant agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, forthwith on demand, such amount, together with interest thereon for
each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. The failure of any L/C
Participant to make available to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit shall
not relieve any other L/C Participant of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer its Revolving Credit Commitment
Percentage of any payment under such Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no L/C Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other L/C Participant to make available to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian
Administrative Agent, as applicable, such other L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of any such payment. 
  
 (f) Whenever the Letter of Credit Issuer receives a payment in respect of an unpaid reimbursement obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has
received for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer any payments from the L/C Participants pursuant to paragraph (c) above, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each
L/C Participant that has paid its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such reimbursement obligation, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s share (based upon the proportionate aggregate
amount 
  

 70 








 originally funded by such L/C Participant to the aggregate amount funded by all L/C Participants) of the principal amount
of such reimbursement obligation and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective L/C Participations. 
  
 (g) The obligations of the L/C Participants to make payments to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent for the account of a Letter
of Credit Issuer with respect to Letters of Credit shall be irrevocable and not subject to counterclaim, set-off or other defense or any other qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of
this Agreement under all circumstances, including under any of the following circumstances: 
  
 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents; 
  
 (ii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other
right that the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative
Agent the Letter of Credit Issuer, any Lender or other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the
Borrower and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit); 
  
 (iii) any draft, certificate or any other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in
any respect; 
  
 (iv) the surrender or impairment
of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Credit Documents; or 
  
 (v) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default; 
  
 provided, however, that no L/C Participant shall be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian
Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer its US Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage or Canadian Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of any unreimbursed amount arising from any wrongful payment made by the Letter of
Credit Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of the Letter of Credit Issuer. 
  
 3.4. Agreement to Repay Letter of Credit Drawings. (a) The Borrower and the Canadian Borrower hereby agree to
reimburse the relevant Letter of Credit Issuer, by making payment in the currency in which the relevant Letter of Credit was denominated to the Administrative Agent (in the case of reimbursement made by the Borrower) or the Canadian Administrative
Agent (in the case of reimbursement made by the Canadian Borrower) in immediately available funds for any payment or disbursement made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under any Letter of Credit (each such amount so paid 
  

 71 








 until reimbursed, an “Unpaid Drawing”) immediately after, and in any event on the date of, such payment,
with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by the Letter of Credit Issuer, to the extent not reimbursed prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date of such payment or disbursement, from and including the date paid or disbursed to but
excluding the date the Letter of Credit Issuer is reimbursed therefor at a rate per annum that shall at all times be the Applicable ABR Margin plus the ABR (or the Cdn ABR or Canadian Prime Rate, as applicable, in the case of the Canadian Letter of
Credit Issuer) as in effect from time to time, provided that, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) unless the Borrower (or the Canadian Borrower) shall have notified the Administrative Agent (or the Canadian
Administrative Agent) and the relevant Letter of Credit Issuer prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date of such drawing that the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, intends to reimburse the relevant Letter of Credit Issuer
for the amount of such drawing with funds other than the proceeds of Loans, the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may, be shall be deemed to have given a Notice of Borrowing requesting that (A) with respect to US Letters of Credit, that
the Lenders with US Revolving Credit Commitments make US Revolving Credit Loans (which shall be ABR Loans) and (B) with respect to Canadian Letters of Credit, the Lenders with Canadian Revolving Credit Commitment make Canadian Revolving Credit Loans
(in the currency in which the Canadian Letter of Credit is denominated which shall initially be Cdn ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as applicable) on the date on which such drawing is honored in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing
and (ii) the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant L/C Participant of such drawing and the amount of its Revolving Credit Loan to be made in respect thereof, and each L/C Participant shall be
irrevocably obligated to make a Revolving Credit Loan to the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, in the manner deemed to have been requested in the amount of its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the applicable Unpaid Drawing
by 12:00 noon (New York time) on such Business Day by making the amount of such Revolving Credit Loan available to the Administrative Agent (or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable). Such Revolving Credit Loans shall be made without
regard to the Minimum Borrowing Amount. The Administrative Agent (or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable) shall use the proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans solely for purpose of reimbursing the Letter of Credit Issuer for the
related Unpaid Drawing. 
  
 (b) The obligations of the Borrower
and the Canadian Borrower under this Section 3.4 to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to Unpaid Drawings (including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and
irrespective of any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower or any other Person may have or have had against the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or any
Lender (including in its capacity as an L/C Participant), including any defense based upon the failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit (each a “Drawing”) to conform to the terms of the Letter of Credit or any non-application
or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such Drawing, provided that neither the Borrower nor the Canadian Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer for any wrongful payment made by the Letter of
Credit Issuer under the Letter of Credit issued by it as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of the Letter of Credit Issuer. 
  

 72 








 3.5. Increased Costs. If after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or
regulation, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or actual compliance by the
Letter of Credit Issuer or any L/C Participant with any request or directive made or adopted after the date hereof (whether or not having the force of law), by any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall either (a) impose, modify or
make applicable any reserve, deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement against letters of credit issued by the Letter of Credit Issuer, or any L/C Participant’s L/C Participation therein, or (b) impose on the Letter of Credit Issuer or
any L/C Participant any other conditions affecting its obligations under this Agreement in respect of Letters of Credit or L/C Participations therein or any Letter of Credit or such L/C Participant’s L/C Participation therein, and the result of
any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Letter of Credit Issuer or such L/C Participant of issuing, maintaining or participating in any Letter of Credit, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Letter of Credit
Issuer or such L/C Participant hereunder (other than any such increase or reduction attributable to taxes) in respect of Letters of Credit or L/C Participations therein, then, promptly after receipt of written demand to the Borrower by the Letter of
Credit Issuer or such L/C Participant, as the case may be, (a copy of which notice shall be sent by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such L/C Participant to the Administrative Agent (with respect to Letter of Credit issued on account of the Borrower)
and to the Canadian Administrative Agent with respect to Letters of Credit issued on account of the Canadian Borrower)), the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, shall pay to the Letter of Credit Issuer or such L/C Participant such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Letter of Credit Issuer or such L/C Participant for such increased cost or reduction, it being understood and agreed, however, that the Letter of Credit Issuer or a L/C Participant shall not be
entitled to such compensation as a result of such Person’s compliance with, or pursuant to any request or directive to comply with, any such law, rule or regulation as in effect on the date hereof. A certificate submitted to the Borrower or the
Canadian Borrower, as applicable, by the relevant Letter of Credit Issuer or a L/C Participant, as the case may be, (a copy of which certificate shall be sent by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such L/C Participant to the Administrative Agent (with
respect to Letters of Credit issued on account of the Borrower) and to the Canadian Administrative Agent with respect to Letters of Credit issued on account of the Canadian Borrower)) setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the
determination of such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Letter of Credit Issuer or such L/C Participant as aforesaid shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, absent clearly
demonstrable error. 
  
 3.6. Successor Letter of Credit
Issuer. A Letter of Credit Issuer may resign as Letter of Credit Issuer upon 60 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower. If the US Letter of Credit Issuer shall
resign as US Letter of Credit Issuer under this Agreement, then the Borrower shall appoint from among the Lenders with US Revolving Credit 
  

 73 








 Commitments a successor issuer of US Letters of Credit, whereupon such successor issuer shall succeed to the rights,
powers and duties of the US Letter of Credit Issuer, and the term “US Letter of Credit Issuer” shall mean such successor issuer effective upon such appointment. At the time such resignation shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay to
the resigning US Letter of Credit Issuer all accrued and unpaid fees pursuant to Sections 4.1(c) and (e). The acceptance of any appointment as the US Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder by a successor Lender shall be evidenced by an agreement entered
into by such successor, in a form satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, such successor Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the previous Letter of Credit
Issuer under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. If the Canadian Letter of Credit Issuer shall resign as Canadian Letter of Credit Issuer under this Agreement, then the Canadian Borrower shall appoint from among the Lenders with Canadian
Revolving Credit Commitments a successor issuer of Canadian Letters of Credit, whereupon such successor issuer shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Canadian Letter of Credit Issuer, and the term “Canadian Letter of Credit
Issuer” shall mean such successor issuer effective upon such appointment. At the time such resignation shall become effective, the Canadian Borrower and the Borrower, as applicable shall pay to the resigning Letter of Credit Issuer all accrued
and unpaid fees pursuant to Sections 4.1(d ) and (e). After the resignation of the Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder, the resigning Letter of Credit Issuer shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of a
Letter of Credit Issuer under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. After any retiring Letter of Credit
Issuer’s resignation as Letter of Credit Issuer, the provisions of this Agreement relating to the Letter of Credit Issuer shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it (a) while it was Letter of Credit Issuer
under this Agreement or (b) at any time with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Letter of Credit Issuer.

fiscal year ending December 31, 2004), the Borrower shall prepay, in accordance with paragraph (c) below, the principal of Term Loans in an amount equal to (x) 50% of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year (provided such percentage shall be reduced

cash equal to such excess and the Administrative Agent shall hold such payment for the benefit of the Lenders as security for the obligations of the Borrower hereunder (including obligations in respect of Letter of Credit Outstandings) pursuant to a
cash collateral agreement to be entered into in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (which shall permit certain investments in Permitted Investments satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, until the proceeds are applied to
the secured obligations). 
  

 78 








 (ii) Aggregate Canadian Revolving Credit Outstandings. If on any date the aggregate
amount of the Canadian Lenders’ Canadian Revolving Credit Exposures (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Aggregate Canadian Revolving Credit Outstandings”) exceeds 103% of the Canadian Total Revolving Credit Commitment as
then in effect, each of the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, shall forthwith repay on such date Canadian Revolving Credit Loans owing by each of them, respectively, in an aggregate amount equal to such excess. If, after giving
effect to the prepayment of all outstanding Canadian Revolving Credit Loans (other than BA Loans), the Aggregate Canadian Revolving Credit Outstandings exceed the Canadian Total Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect, the Borrower and/or the
Canadian Borrower as the case may be, shall pay to the Canadian Administrative Agent an amount in cash equal to such excess and the Canadian Administrative Agent shall hold such payment for the benefit of the applicable Lenders as security for the

to the Canadian Administrative Agent (which shall permit certain investments in Permitted Investments satisfactory to the Canadian Administrative Agent, until the proceeds are applied to the secured obligations). 
  
 (c) Application to Repayment Amounts. Each prepayment of Term Loans
required by Section 5.2(a) shall be applied to reduce Repayment Amounts in such order as the Borrower may determine up to an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the applicable Repayment Amounts required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 2.5(b) during the two year period immediately following the date of the prepayment (such amount being, the “Amortization Amount”), provided that to the extent that the amount of the prepayment exceeds the Amortization
Amount, such excess shall be applied ratably to reduce the then remaining Repayment Amounts. With respect to each such prepayment, (i) the Borrower will, not later than the date specified in Section 5.2(a) for offering to make such prepayment, give
the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) requesting that the Administrative Agent provide notice of such prepayment to each Term Loan Lender, (ii) each Term Loan Lender will have the right to refuse any such
prepayment by giving written notice of such refusal to the Borrower within fifteen Business Days after such Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent of such prepayment (and the Borrower shall not prepay any such Term Loans until
the date that is specified in the immediately following clause), (iii) the Borrower will make all such prepayments not so refused upon the earlier of (x) such fifteenth Business Day and (y) such time as the Borrower has received notice from each
Lender that it consents to or refuses such prepayment and (iv) any prepayment so refused may be retained by the Borrower, provided that any prepayment so refused that relates to Net Cash Proceeds from a Debt Incurrence Prepayment Event in
respect of the issuance of Permitted Additional Subordinated Notes shall be allocated to the then outstanding Term Loans and shall be applied as set forth above in this paragraph (c). 
  
 (d) Application to Term Loans. With respect to each prepayment of Term Loans required by Section 5.2(a), the Borrower
may designate the Types of Loans 
  

 79 








 that are to be prepaid and the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which made, provided that (i) Eurodollar Term
Loans may be designated for prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.2 only on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto unless all Eurodollar Term Loans with Interest Periods ending on such date of required prepayment and all ABR Loans
have been paid in full; and (ii) Eurodollar Term Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding Term Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount for Eurodollar Loans such
Borrowing shall immediately be converted into ABR Loans . In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its reasonable
discretion with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Section 2.11. 
  
 (e) Application to Revolving Credit Loans. With respect to each prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans elected by the Borrower pursuant to Section
5.2(a) or required by Section 5.2(b), the Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of the Canadian Borrower) may designate (i) the Types of Loans that are to be prepaid and the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which made and (ii) the US Revolving
Credit Loans or Canadian Revolving Credit Loans to be prepaid, provided that (w) Eurodollar Revolving Credit Loans may be designated for prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.2 only on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto
unless all Eurodollar Loans with Interest Periods ending on such date of required prepayment and all ABR Loans have been paid in full; (x) if any prepayment by the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower of Eurodollar Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant
to a single Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding Dollar Equivalent of the Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount for Eurodollar Revolving Credit Loans, as the case may be, such
Borrowing shall immediately be converted into Cdn ABR Loans or ABR Loans, as applicable; (y) each prepayment of any Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall be applied pro rata among such Loans; and (z) notwithstanding the provisions
of the preceding clause (y), no prepayment made pursuant to Section 5.2(a) or Section 5.2(b) of Revolving Credit Loans shall be applied to the Revolving Credit Loans of any Defaulting Lender. In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as
described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its reasonable discretion with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Section 2.11. 
  
 (f) BA and Eurodollar Interest Periods. In lieu of making any payment
pursuant to this Section 5.2 in respect of any BA Loan or Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period therefor so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower or the Canadian
Borrower, as the case may be, at its option may deposit with the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the amount of the BA Loan or Eurodollar Loan to be prepaid and such BA Loan or Eurodollar Loan, as the case may be, shall be repaid on the last
day of the Interest Period therefor in the required amount. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a corporate time deposit account established on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, earning interest at the
then-customary rate for accounts of such type. Such deposit shall constitute cash collateral for the Obligations, provided that the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, may at any time direct that such deposit be applied to
make the applicable payment required pursuant to this Section 5.2. 
  

 80 








 (g) Minimum Amount. No prepayment shall be required pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(i) unless and until
the amount at any time of Net Cash Proceeds from Prepayment Events required to be applied at or prior to such time pursuant to such Section and not yet applied at or prior to such time to prepay Term Loans pursuant to such Section exceeds the Dollar
Equivalent of $15,000,000 in the aggregate for all such Prepayment Events. 
  
 (h) Foreign Asset Sales. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 5.2, (i) to the extent that any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any asset sale by a Restricted Foreign Subsidiary giving rise to
an Asset Sale Prepayment Event (a “Foreign Asset Sale”) or Excess Cash Flow are prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash
Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in this Section 5.2 but may be retained by the applicable Restricted Foreign Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law will not
permit repatriation to the United States (the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Restricted Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all actions required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation),
and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local law, such repatriation will be immediately effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be
promptly (and in any event not later than two Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 5.2 and (ii) to the
extent that the Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of the Canadian Borrower) has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Foreign Asset Sale or Excess Cash Flow would have a material adverse tax
cost consequence with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected may be retained by the applicable Restricted Foreign Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of this clause
(ii), on or before the date on which any Net Cash Proceeds so retained would otherwise have been required to be applied to reinvestments or prepayments pursuant to Section 5.2(a) (or such Excess Cash Flow would have been so required if it were Net
Cash Proceeds), (x) the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, applies an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow to such reinvestments or prepayments as if such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow had been
received by the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, rather than such Restricted Foreign Subsidiary, less the amount of additional taxes that would have been payable or reserved against if such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow
had been repatriated (or, if less, the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow that would be calculated if received by such Foreign Subsidiary) or (y) such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow are applied to the repayment of Indebtedness of a
Restricted Foreign Subsidiary. 
  
 5.3. Method and Place of
Payment. (a) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments under this Agreement shall be made by the 
  

 81 








 Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, to the Administrative Agent
for the ratable account of the Lenders entitled thereto, the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Canadian Letter of Credit Issuer or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, not later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the date when due and shall be made
(i) in the case of amounts payable in Dollars, in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office and (ii) in the case of amounts payable in a Canadian Dollars, in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s
Office or at such other office as the Administrative Agent shall specify for such purpose by notice to the Borrower, it being understood that written or facsimile notice by the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, to the
Administrative Agent to make a payment from the funds in the Borrower’s or the Canadian Borrower’s, as the case may be, account at the Administrative Agent’s Office shall constitute the making of such payment to the extent of such
funds held in such account. All payments under each Credit Document (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) shall be made (i) in the case of the principal of and interest on each Loan, in the currency in which such Loan is denominated, (ii) in
the case of reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, in the currency in which such Letter of Credit is denominated or (iii) in the case of any indemnification or expense reimbursement payment, in Dollars, except as otherwise
expressly provided herein. The Administrative Agent will thereafter cause to be distributed on the same day (if payment was actually received by the Administrative Agent prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on such day) like funds relating to the
payment of principal or interest or Fees ratably to the Lenders entitled thereto. 
  
 (b) Any payments under this Agreement that are made later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated
to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect
immediately prior to such extension. 
  
 5.4. Net Payments.
(a) Subject to the following sentence, all payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower under this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on
account of, any current or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding (i) net
income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) and capital taxes imposed on the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Lender and (ii) any taxes imposed on the Administrative Agent, the Canadian
Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of a current or former connection between the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political
subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a
payment under, or enforced, this Agreement). If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, 
  

 82 








 imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) are required to be
withheld from any amounts payable under this Agreement, the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, shall increase the amounts payable to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or such Lender to the extent necessary to
yield to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement; provided,
however, that the Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to any Lender that is not organized under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) if such Lender fails
to comply with the requirements of paragraph (b) of this Section 5.4. Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, as promptly as possible thereafter such Borrower or Canadian Borrower
shall send to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of such Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt (or other evidence acceptable to such Lender,
acting reasonably) received by such Borrower or Canadian Borrower showing payment thereof. If the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to
remit to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, such Borrower or Canadian Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent and
the Lenders for any incremental taxes, interest, costs or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure. The agreements in this Section 5.4(a) shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
  
 (b) Each Non-U.S. Lender (other than a Canadian Lender making Loans only to the Canadian Borrower) shall: 
  
 (i) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two
copies of either (x) in the case of Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. Federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, United States Internal Revenue Service
Form W-8BEN (together with a certificate representing that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a bank for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code, is not a 10-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code) of the Borrower and is
not a controlled foreign corporation related to the Borrower (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code)), or (y) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI, in each case properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S.
Lender claiming complete exemption from, or reduced rate of, U.S. Federal withholding tax on payments by the Borrower under this Agreement; 
  
 (ii) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further copies of any such form or certification (or any applicable
successor form) on or before the date that any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Borrower; and 
  

 83 








 (iii) obtain such extensions of time for filing and complete such forms or certifications
as may reasonably be requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent; 
  
 unless in any such case any change in treaty, law or regulation has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required that renders any such form inapplicable or would prevent such Lender from duly completing
and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender so advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Each Person that shall become a Participant pursuant to Section 14.6 or a Lender pursuant to Section 14.6 shall, upon the
effectiveness of the related transfer, be required to provide all the forms and statements required pursuant to this Section 5.4(b), provided that in the case of a Participant such Participant shall furnish all such required forms and
statements to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased. 
  
 (c) The Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any Non-U.S. Lender, or to pay any additional amounts to any Non-U.S. Lender, in respect of U.S. Federal withholding tax pursuant to paragraph (a) above to the
extent that (i) the obligation to withhold amounts with respect to U.S. Federal withholding tax existed on the date such Non-U.S. Lender became a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of a Participant that is not organized under the laws of the
United States of America or a state thereof (a “Non-U.S. Participant”), on the date such Non-U.S. Participant became a Participant hereunder); provided, however, that this clause (i) shall not apply to the extent that
(x) the indemnity payments or additional amounts any Lender (or Participant) would be entitled to receive (without regard to this clause (i)) do not exceed the indemnity payment or additional amounts that the person making the assignment,
participation or transfer to such Lender (or Participant) would have been entitled to receive in the absence of such assignment, participation or transfer, or (y) such assignment, participation or transfer had been requested by the Borrower or the
Canadian Borrower, (ii) the obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Non-U.S. Lender or Non-U.S. Participant to comply with the provisions of paragraph (b) above or (iii) any of the representations or
certifications made by a Non-U.S. Lender or Non-U.S. Participant pursuant to paragraph (b) above are incorrect at the time a payment hereunder is made, other than by reason of any change in treaty, law or regulation having effect after the date such
representations or certifications were made. The Canadian Borrower shall not be required to indemnify or pay additional amounts to a Lender or Administrative Agent in respect of Canadian withholding tax pursuant to paragraph (a) above to the extent
that such Non-Excluded Taxes result from a failure by the Lender or Administrative Agent to comply with any certification, identification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement (collectively referred to in this Section 5.4(c) as
a “Reporting Requirement”) if (i) compliance is required by law, regulation, administrative practice or any applicable tax treaty as a precondition to exemption from or a reduction in the rate of deduction or withholding of
Non-Excluded Taxes, and (ii) the Canadian Borrower has first made written request to the Lender or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, that the Lender or Administrative Agent comply 
  

 84 








 with the particular Reporting Requirement (identified specifically in such request) and the Lender or Administrative
Agent, as applicable, has not complied with such Reporting Requirement within 30 Business Days of such written request; provided, however that the Canadian Borrower shall not be relieved of its obligation to indemnify or pay additional
amounts to a Lender or Administrative Agent (x) in respect of certain payments where the obligation to indemnify or pay additional amounts in respect of those payments arose prior to Canadian Borrower’s written request to the Lender or Canadian
Administrative Agent, as applicable, respecting such Reporting Requirement, (y) if, by reason of any change in any law, regulation, administrative practice or applicable tax treaty occurring after the date hereof, the Lender or Administrative Agent,
as applicable, is unable to duly comply with such Reporting Requirement, or (z) to the extent that the additional payment or indemnity compensates the Lender or Administrative Agent for an amount to which the Lender or Administrative Agent would
have been entitled to receive under paragraph (a) had the Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable complied with the Reporting Requirement. 
  
 (d) If the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any taxes for which indemnification
has been demanded hereunder, the relevant Lender, the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall cooperate with such Borrower or Canadian Borrower in challenging such taxes at Borrower’s or Canadian
Borrower’s expense if so requested by Borrower or Canadian Borrower. If any Lender, the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, receives a refund of a tax for which a payment has been made by the Borrower or
the Canadian Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, which refund in the good faith judgment of such Lender, the Canadian Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, is attributable to such payment made by such Borrower or
Canadian Borrower, then the Lender, the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall reimburse Borrower or Canadian Borrower for such amount (together with any interest received thereon) as the Lender, the
Canadian Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, determines to be the proportion of the refund as will leave it, after such reimbursement, in no better or worse position than it would have been in if the payment had not
been required. A Lender, the Canadian Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent shall claim any refund that it determines is available to it, unless it concludes in its reasonable discretion that it would be adversely affected by making such a
claim. Neither the Lender, the Canadian Administrative Agent nor the Administrative Agent shall be obliged to disclose any information regarding its tax affairs or computations to the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower in connection with this
paragraph (d) or any other provision of this Section 5.4. 
  
 (e)
Each Lender represents and agrees that, on the date hereof and at all times during the term of this Agreement, it is not and will not be a conduit entity participating in a conduit financing arrangement (as defined in Section 7701(1) of the Code and
the regulations thereunder) with respect to the Borrowings hereunder unless the Borrower has consented to such arrangement prior thereto. 
  

 85 








 (f) Notwithstanding Section 5.4(a), the Canadian Borrower shall not be required to indemnify or pay any
additional amounts in respect of Canadian withholding tax imposed under Part XIII of the Tax Act applicable to any amount payable with respect to Canadian Revolving Credit Loans or Canadian Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 5.4(a) above to any
Lender that is not a Canadian Resident for the purposes of the Tax Act, except if any such Loans were assigned, participated or transferred to such Lender at the request of the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower or were assigned, participated or
transferred to such Lender following the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 11.1 or 11.5. 
  
 5.5. Computations of Interest and Fees. (a) Interest on Eurodollar Loans and, except as provided in the next succeeding sentence, ABR Loans shall
be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed. Interest on (i) Canadian Prime Loans and (ii) ABR Loans in respect of which the rate of interest is calculated on the basis of the Prime Rate and interest on overdue interest
shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. 
  
 (b) Fees and Letter of Credit Outstanding shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed.

  
 5.6. Limit on Rate of Interest. 
  
 (a) No Payment shall exceed Lawful Rate. Notwithstanding any other
term of this Agreement, neither the Borrower nor the Canadian Borrower shall be obliged to pay any interest or other amounts under or in connection with this Agreement in excess of the amount or rate permitted under or consistent with any applicable
law, rule or regulation. In particular, the Canadian Borrower shall not be obliged to pay any interest or other amounts which would result in the receipt by any Lender of interest on credit advanced at a rate in excess of the rate permitted under
the Criminal Code (Canada). For purposes of this Section 5.6, “interest” and “credit advanced” have the meanings ascribed in the Criminal Code (Canada) and the “effective annual rate of interest” shall be
calculated in accordance with generally accepted actuarial principles and practices. 
  
 (b) Payment at Highest Lawful Rate. If either the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower is not obliged to make a payment which it would otherwise be required to make, as a result of Section 5.6(a), the Borrower or
the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, shall make such payment to the maximum extent permitted by or consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations. 
  
 (c) Adjustment if any Payment exceeds Lawful Rate. If any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents would obligate the
Borrower or the Canadian Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by any applicable law, rule or regulation, or in the case of the Canadian
Borrower, would result in a receipt by that Lender of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or 
  

 86 








 rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case
may be, as would not be so prohibited by law (in the case of the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower) or so result in a receipt by that Lender of interest at a criminal rate (in the case of the Canadian Borrower), such adjustment to be effected, to
the extent necessary, as follows: 
  
 (i)
firstly, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid by the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower to the affected Lender under Section 2.8; and 
  

(ii) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid by the Borrower or the Canadian
Borrower to the affected Lender where, in the case of the Canadian Borrower, such amounts would constitute interest for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada). 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if any Lender shall have received from the
Borrower or the Canadian Borrower an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by any applicable law, rule or regulation or in the case of the Canadian Borrower, an amount in excess of the maximum permitted under the Criminal Code (Canada),
then the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, shall be entitled, by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, to obtain reimbursement from that Lender in an amount equal to such
excess, and pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by that Lender to the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable. Any amount or rate of interest referred to in this Section 5.6(c) shall be determined
in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term that any Loan remains outstanding on the assumption, with respect to Canadian Borrowings, that any charges, fees or
expenses that fall within the meaning of “interest” (as defined in the Criminal Code (Canada)) shall, if the relate to a specific period of time, be pro-rated over that period of time and otherwise be pro-rated over
the period from the Closing Date to the Maturity Date.

 122 








 11.10. Mortgages. Any Mortgage or any material provision of any Mortgage relating to any material
portion of the Collateral shall cease to be in full force or effect (other than pursuant to the terms hereof or thereof or as a result of acts or omissions of the Administrative Agent or any Lender) or any Mortgagor thereunder or any Credit Party
shall deny or disaffirm in writing any Mortgagor’s obligations under any Mortgage; or 
  
 11.11. Foreign Guarantees. The Canadian Guarantee or any material provision of the Canadian Guarantee shall cease to be in full force or effect or any grantor thereunder or any Credit Party shall deny or
disaffirm in writing any grantors obligations under the Canadian Guarantee; or 
  
 11.12. Canadian Security Documents. Any Canadian Security Document or any material provision of any Canadian Security Document shall cease to be in full force or effect (other than pursuant to the terms hereof
or thereof or as a result of acts or omissions of the Administrative Agent or any Lender) or any grantor thereunder or any Credit Party shall deny or disaffirm in writing any grantors obligations under any Canadian Security Document; or 

 
 11.13. Subordination. The Obligations of the Borrower and the
Canadian Borrower, or the obligations of Holdings or any Subsidiaries pursuant to the Guarantee or the Canadian Guarantee, shall cease to constitute senior indebtedness under the subordination provisions of any document or instrument evidencing the
Subordinated Notes or any other permitted subordinated Indebtedness or such subordination provisions shall be invalidated or otherwise cease to be legal, valid and binding obligations of the parties thereto, enforceable in accordance with their
terms; or 
  
 11.14. Judgments. One or more judgments or
decrees shall be entered against the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries involving a liability of $20,000,000 or more in the aggregate for all such judgments and decrees for the Borrower and the Restricted
Subsidiaries (to the extent not paid or fully covered by insurance provided by a carrier not disputing coverage) and any such judgments or decrees shall not have been satisfied, vacated, discharged or stayed or bonded pending appeal within 60 days
from the entry thereof; or 
  
 11.15. Change of Control. A
Change of Control shall occur; 
  
 then, and in any such event, and at any time
thereafter, if any Event of Default shall then be continuing, the Administrative Agent shall, upon the written request of the Required Lenders, by written notice to the Borrower, take any or all of the following actions, without prejudice to the
rights of the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Lender to enforce its claims against the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower, except as otherwise specifically provided for in this Agreement (provided that, if an
Event of Default specified in Section 11.5 shall occur with respect to the Borrower, 
  

 123 








 the Canadian Borrower or any Specified Subsidiary, the result that would occur upon the giving of written notice by the
Administrative Agent as specified in clauses (i), (ii) and (iv) below shall occur automatically without the giving of any such notice): (i) declare the US Total Revolving Credit Commitment terminated and the Canadian Total Revolving Credit
Commitment terminated, whereupon the Commitments and Swingline Commitment, if any, of each Lender or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, shall forthwith terminate immediately and any Fees theretofore accrued shall forthwith become due and
payable without any other notice of any kind; (ii) declare the principal of and any accrued interest and fees in respect of all Loans and all Obligations owing hereunder and thereunder to be, whereupon the same shall become, forthwith due and

direct the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower to pay (and the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower agree that upon receipt of such notice, or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 11.5 with respect to the Borrower, the
Canadian Borrower or any Specified Subsidiary, it will pay) to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, at its Administrative Agent’s Office such additional amounts of cash, to be held as security for the
Borrower’s and the Canadian Borrower’s respective reimbursement obligations for (x) Drawings that may subsequently occur thereunder, equal to the aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit issued and then outstanding and (y) the full
face amount of Bankers’ Acceptances outstanding prior to their maturity dates. 
  
 SECTION 12. The Administrative Agent 
  
 12.1. Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and each such Lender
irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated
to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities
shall be read into this Agreement or any other Credit Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Neither the Syndication Agent nor the Documentation Agents, in their respective capacities as such, shall have any obligations,
duties or responsibilities under this Agreement but shall be entitled to all benefits of this Section 12. 
  
 12.2. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents by or
through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact
selected by it with reasonable care. 
  

 124 








 12.3. Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors,
employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document (except for its or such
Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, any Guarantor, any Canadian
Subsidiary Guarantor, any other Credit Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Credit Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative
Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Credit Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or for any failure of the Borrower,
the Canadian Borrower, any Guarantor, any Canadian Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Credit Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire
as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower. 
  
 12.4. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall
be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be
genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower and/or the Canadian Borrower), independent accountants and other experts
selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the Lender specified in the Register with respect to any amount owing hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment,
negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Credit Document unless it shall first
receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or
continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and
such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans. 
  
 12.5. Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of
Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and 
  

 125 








 stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a
notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders, provided that unless
and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall
deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders (except to the extent that this Agreement requires that such action be taken only with the approval of the Required Lenders or each of the Lenders, as applicable). 
  
 12.6. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each
Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent
hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, any Guarantor, any Canadian Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Credit Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the
Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, any Guarantor, any Canadian Subsidiary Guarantor and any
other Credit Party and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such
documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and to make such investigation
as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, any Guarantor, any Canadian Subsidiary Guarantor and any other Credit Party.
Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or
other information concerning the business, assets, operations, properties, financial condition, prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, any Guarantor, any Canadian Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Credit Party that may
come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates. 
  
 12.7. Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the
Borrower or the Canadian Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective portions of the Total Credit Exposure in effect on the date on which indemnification is
sought (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have 
  

 126 








 terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their respective portions of the Total
Credit Exposure in effect immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time
(including at any time following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Credit Documents or any
documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing, provided that no Lender shall
be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.
The agreements in this Section 12.7 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
  
 12.8. Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and
generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, any Guarantor, any Canadian Subsidiary Guarantor and any other Credit Party as though the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and under
the other Credit Documents. With respect to the Loans made by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the
Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. 
  
 12.9. Successor Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 20 days’ prior written notice to the Lenders and the
Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent
shall be approved by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall
mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such
former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 12 shall inure to its benefit as to
any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. 
  
 12.10. Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender
an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the 
  

 127 








 Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the
appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any
other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, together with all expenses incurred, including
legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket expenses. 
  
 12.11. Canadian Administrative Agent. Each of the Lenders hereby agrees and confirms that the provisions of this Section 12 shall apply to JPMorgan Chase Bank, Toronto Branch, as Canadian Administrative Agent with respect to the
Canadian Revolving Credit Loans upon the same terms and subject to the same conditions as provided in this Section 12 mutatis mutandis; provided, that any successor Canadian Administrative Agent shall be a Canadian Resident with an
office in Toronto, Canada or Montreal, Canada having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000 or an Affiliate of any such bank which is also a bank. 
  
 12.12. Quebec. For greater certainty, and without limiting the powers of the Agents or any other Person acting as an
agent, attorney-in-fact or mandatary for the Agents under this Agreement or under any of the other Credit Documents, each Lender, hereby (a) irrevocably constitutes, to the extent necessary, the Canadian Administrative Agent as the holder of an
irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec) for the purposes of holding any Liens, including hypothecs, granted or to be granted by any Credit Party on
movable or immovable property pursuant to the laws of the Province of Quebec to secure obligations of a Credit Party under any bond issued by a Credit Party; and (b) appoints and agrees that the Canadian Administrative Agent, acting as agent for the
Lenders, may act as the bondholder and mandatary with respect to any bond that may be issued and pledged from time to time for the benefit of the Lenders. 
  
 The said constitution of the fondé de pouvoir (within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec) as the holder of such
irrevocable power of attorney and of the Canadian Administrative Agent as bondholder and mandatary with respect to any bond that may be issued and pledged from time to time for the benefit of the Lenders shall be deemed to have been ratified and
confirmed by any assignee by the execution of an Assignment and Acceptance. 
  
 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 32 of An Act respecting the special powers of legal persons (Quebec), the Canadian Administrative Agent may purchase, acquire and be the holder of any bond issued by
any Credit Party. Each Credit Party hereby acknowledges that any such bond shall constitute a title of indebtedness, as such term is used in Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec. 
  
 The Canadian Administrative Agent herein appointed as fondé de
pouvoir shall have the same rights, powers and immunities as the Agents as stipulated in this Article XII, which shall apply mutatis mutandis. Without limitation, the provisions of Section 12.9 of this Agreement shall apply mutatis
mutandis to the resignation and appointment of a successor to the Canadian Administrative Agent acting as fondé de pouvoir. 
  

 128 








 SECTION 13. Collateral Allocation Mechanism 
  
 13.1. Implementation of CAM. (a) On the CAM Exchange Date, (i) the
Commitments shall automatically and without further act be terminated as provided in Section 11, (ii) the Lenders shall automatically and without further act (and without regard to the provisions of Section 14.6) be deemed to have exchanged
interests in the Credit Facilities such that in lieu of the interest of each Lender in each Credit Facility in which it shall participate as of such date (including such Lender’s interest in the Specified Obligations of each Credit Party in
respect of each such Credit Facility), such Lender shall hold an interest in every one of the Credit Facilities (including the Specified Obligations of each Credit Party in respect of each such Credit Facility and each L/C Reserve Account
established pursuant to Section 13.2 below), whether or not such Lender shall previously have participated therein, equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage thereof and (iii) simultaneously with the deemed exchange of interests pursuant to clause
(ii) above, in the case of (A) any Canadian Lender that has prior to the date thereof notified the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing that it has elected to have this clause (iii) apply to it, and (B) any other Lender that has
notified the Administrative Agent in writing that it desires to have its deemed participation following the CAM Exchange Date converted to Dollars, the interests in the Canadian Obligations to be received by such Lender in such deemed exchange
shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted into the Dollar Equivalent, determined using the Exchange Rate calculated as of such date, of such amount and on and after such date all amounts accruing and owed to such Lender
in respect of such Obligations shall accrue and be payable in Dollars at the rate otherwise applicable hereunder, provided that such CAM Exchange will not affect the aggregate amount of the Obligations of the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower to
the Lenders under the Credit Documents. Each Lender and each Credit Party hereby consents and agrees to the CAM Exchange, and each Lender agrees that the CAM Exchange shall be binding upon its successors and assigns and any person that acquires a
participation in its interests in any Credit Facility. Each Credit Party agrees from time to time to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent all promissory notes and other instruments and documents as the Administrative Agent shall
reasonably request to evidence and confirm the respective interests of the Lenders after giving effect to the CAM Exchange, and each Lender agrees to surrender any promissory notes originally received by it in connection with its Loans hereunder to
the Administrative Agent against delivery of new promissory notes evidencing its interests in the Credit Facilities; provided, however, that the failure of any Credit Party to execute or deliver or of any Lender to accept any such promissory note,
instrument or document shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the CAM Exchange. 
  
 (b) As a result of the CAM Exchange, upon and after the CAM Exchange Date, each payment received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any Credit Document in respect of the Specified Obligations, and each
distribution made by 
  

 129 








 the Administrative Agent pursuant to any Credit Document in respect of the Specified Obligations, shall be distributed to
the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective CAM Percentages. Any direct payment received by a Lender upon or after the CAM Exchange Date, including by way of setoff, in respect of a Specified Obligation shall be paid over to the
Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders in accordance herewith. 
  
 13.2. Letters of Credit. (a) In the event that on the CAM Exchange Date any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding and undrawn in whole or in part, or any amount drawn under a Letter of Credit shall constitute
an Unpaid Drawing, each Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment or Canadian Commitment, as applicable, in respect of Unpaid Drawings on Letters of Credit shall, before giving effect to the CAM Exchange, promptly pay over to the Administrative
Agent, in immediately available funds and in the currency that such Letters of Credit are denominated (or at the request of a Lender, such amount in the Dollar Equivalent thereof at such time), an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Credit
Commitment Percentage (as notified to such Lender by the Administrative Agent), of such Letter of Credit’s undrawn face amount or (to the extent it has not already done so) such Letter of Credit’s Unpaid Drawing, as the case may be,
together with interest thereon from the CAM Exchange Date to the date on which such amount shall be paid to the Administrative Agent at the rate that would be applicable at the time to a Revolving Credit Loan that is an ABR Loan in a principal
amount equal to such amount, as the case may be. The Administrative Agent shall establish a separate account or accounts for each Lender (each, an “L/C Reserve Account”) for the amounts received with respect to each such Letter of
Credit pursuant to the preceding sentence. The Administrative Agent shall deposit in each Lender’s L/C Reserve Account such Lender’s CAM Percentage of the amounts received from the Lenders as provided above. The Administrative Agent shall
have sole dominion and control over each L/C Reserve Account, and the amounts deposited in each L/C Reserve Account shall be held in such L/C Reserve Account until withdrawn as provided in paragraph (b), (c), (d) or (e) below. The Administrative
Agent shall maintain records enabling it to determine the amounts paid over to it and deposited in the L/C Reserve Accounts in respect of each Letter of Credit and the amounts on deposit in respect of each Letter of Credit attributable to each
Lender’s CAM Percentage. The amounts held in each Lender’s L/C Reserve Account shall be held as a reserve against the Letter of Credit Exposure, shall be the property of such Lender, shall not constitute Loans to or give rise to any claim
of or against any Credit Party and shall not give rise to any obligation on the part of the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower to pay interest to such Lender, it being agreed that the reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit shall
arise only at such times as drawings are made thereunder, as provided in Section 3. 
  
 (b) In the event that after the CAM Exchange Date any drawing shall be made in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Letter of Credit Issuer withdraw from the L/C Reserve
Account of each Lender any amounts, up to the amount of such Lender’s CAM Percentage of such drawing, deposited in respect of such Letter of Credit and remaining on deposit and deliver such amounts to the Letter of Credit Issuer in satisfaction
of the reimbursement obligations of the Lenders under Section 3 (but not of the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower under Section 3, 
  

 130 








 respectively). In the event any Lender shall default on its obligation to pay over any amount to the Administrative Agent
in respect of any Letter of Credit as provided in this Section 13.2, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall, in the event of a drawing thereunder, have a claim against such Lender to the same extent as if such Lender had defaulted on its obligations
under Section 2.5(e), but shall have no claim against any other Lender in respect of such defaulted amount, notwithstanding the exchange of interests in the reimbursement obligations pursuant to Section 9.01. Each other Lender shall have a claim
against such defaulting Lender for any damages sustained by it as a result of such default, including, in the event such Letter of Credit shall expire undrawn, its CAM Percentage of the defaulted amount. 
  
 (c) In the event that after the CAM Exchange Date any Letter of Credit shall
expire undrawn, the Administrative Agent shall withdraw from the L/C Reserve Account of each Lender the amount remaining on deposit therein in respect of such Letter of Credit and distribute such amount to such Lender. 
  
 (d) With the prior written approval of the Administrative Agent and the
Letter of Credit Issuer, any Lender may withdraw the amount held in its L/C Reserve Account in respect of the undrawn amount of any Letter of Credit. Any Lender making such a withdrawal shall be unconditionally obligated, in the event there shall
subsequently be a drawing under such Letter of Credit, to pay over to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer on demand, its CAM Percentage of such drawing. 
  
 (e) Pending the withdrawal by any Lender of any amounts from its L/C Reserve
Account as contemplated by the above paragraphs, the Administrative Agent will, at the direction of such Lender and subject to such rules as the Administrative Agent may prescribe for the avoidance of inconvenience, invest such amounts in Permitted
Investments. Each Lender that has not withdrawn its CAM Percentage of amounts in its L/C Reserve Account as provided in paragraph (d) above shall have the right, at intervals reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent, to withdraw the earnings
on investments so made by the Administrative Agent with amounts in its L/C Reserve Account and to retain such earnings for its own account. 
  
 13.3. Net Payments Upon Implementation of CAM Exchange. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if, as a direct result of the
implementation of the CAM Exchange, the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower is required to withhold Non-Excluded Taxes from amounts payable to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Participant hereunder, the amounts so payable to the
Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Participant shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Participant (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts
payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement; provided, however, that the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to such Lender or Participant under
this Section 13.3 (but, rather, shall be required to increase any such amounts payable to such Lender or Participant to the extent required by Section 5.4) if such Lender or Participant was prior to or on the CAM 
  

 131 








 Exchange Date already a Lender or Participant with respect to such Borrower or Canadian Borrower. If a Non-U.S. Lender
(or Non-U.S. Participant), in its good faith judgment, is eligible for an exemption from, or reduced rate of, U.S. Federal withholding tax on payments by the Borrower under this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be required to increase any such
amounts payable to such Non-U.S. Lender (or Non-U.S. Participant) if such Non-U.S. Lender (or Non-U.S. Participant) fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (b) of Section 5.4. The Canadian Borrower shall not be required to indemnify or
pay any additional amounts to any Lender in respect of Canadian withholding tax pursuant to this Section 13.3 to the extent that such taxes result from a failure by the Lender to comply with any Reporting Requirement described in Section 5.4(c) of
this Agreement if (i) compliance is required by law, regulation, administrative practice or any applicable tax treaty as a precondition to exemption from or a reduction in the rate of deduction or withholding of tax, and (ii) the Canadian borrower
has first made written request to the Lender that such Lender comply with the particular Reporting Requirement (identified specifically in such request) and the Lender has not complied with such Reporting Requirement within 30 Business Days of such
written request; provided, however that the Canadian Borrower shall not be relieved of its obligation to indemnify or pay additional amounts to a Lender (x) where such obligation arose prior to the Canadian Borrower’s written
request to the Lender respecting such Reporting Requirement, (y) if, by reason of any change in any law, regulation, administrative practice or applicable tax treaty occurring after the date hereof, the Lender, as applicable, is unable to duly
comply with such Reporting Requirement, or (z) to the extent that the additional payment or indemnity compensates the Lender for an amount to which the Lender would have been entitled to received under this Section 13.3 had the Lender complied with
the Reporting Requirement. Upon a CAM Exchange, a Lender (or Participant) will use commercially reasonable efforts, and complete any procedural formalities necessary, to become an Eligible Lender with respect to the Canadian Borrower and, if such
Lender (or Participant) fails to do so, the Canadian Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to such Lender (or Participant) (unless such Lender is prohibited from becoming a Canadian Lender by its governing documents).
If the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, fails to pay any such Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary
evidence, such Borrower or Canadian Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Participants for any incremental taxes, interest, costs or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent, such Lenders or such
Participants as a result of any such failure. 
  
 SECTION 14.
Miscellaneous 
  
 14.1. Amendments and Waivers.
Neither this Agreement nor any other Credit Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 14.1. The Required Lenders may, or, with the written consent of
the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, from time to time, (a) enter into with the relevant Credit Party or Credit Parties written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Credit Documents for the purpose of
adding any provisions to this Agreement or the other 
  

 132 








 Credit Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Credit Parties hereunder or thereunder or
(b) waive, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or any Default or Event of
Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall directly (i) forgive any portion of any Loan or extend the final scheduled maturity date of any Loan or reduce
the stated rate, or forgive any portion, or extend the date for the payment, of any interest or fee payable hereunder (other than as a result of waiving the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or extend the final
expiration date of any Lender’s Commitment or extend the final expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond the L/C Maturity Date, or increase the aggregate amount of the Commitments of any Lender, or amend or modify any provisions of Section
14.8(a), in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, or (ii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 14.1 or reduce the percentages specified in the definitions of the terms
“Required Canadian Revolving Credit Lenders”, “Required US Revolving Credit Lenders”, “Required Lenders” and “Required Term Lenders” or consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower or the Canadian
Borrower of its rights and obligations under any Credit Document to which it is a party (except as permitted pursuant to Section 10.3), in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, or (iii) amend,
modify or waive any provision of Section 12 without the written consent of the then-current Administrative Agent, or (iv) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 3 without the written consent of the Letter of Credit Issuer, or (v) amend,
modify or waive any provisions hereof relating to Swingline Loans without the written consent of the Swingline Lender, or (vi) change any Revolving Credit Commitment to a Term Loan Commitment, or change any Term Loan Commitment to a Revolving Credit
Commitment, in each case without the prior written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, or (vii) release all or substantially all of the Guarantors under the Guarantee (except as expressly permitted by the Guarantee),
release all or substantially all of the Canadian Subsidiary Guarantors under any Canadian Subsidiary Guarantee (except as permitted by any Canadian Subsidiary Guarantee) or release all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Pledge
Agreement, the Security Agreement, the Canadian Security Documents and the Mortgages, in each case without the prior written consent of each Lender, or (viii) amend Section 2.9(a) so as to permit Interest Period intervals greater than six months
without regard to availability to Lenders, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, or (ix) decrease any Repayment Amount, extend any scheduled Repayment Date or decrease the amount or allocation of any
mandatory prepayment to be received by any Lender holding any Term Loans, in each case without the written consent of the Required Term Lenders and; provided further, that at any time that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Lender may be increased to finance a Permitted Acquisition, with the consent of such Lender, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (which consent, in the case of the Administrative Agent, shall
not be unreasonably withheld) and without the consent of the Required Lenders, so long as (i) the Increased Commitment Amount at such time, when added to the amount of Indebtedness incurred pursuant to 
  

 133 








 Section 10.1(k) and outstanding at such time, does not exceed the limits set forth therein, (ii) the Borrower or its
applicable Restricted Subsidiary shall pledge the capital stock of any person acquired pursuant thereto to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders to the extent required under Section 9.12 and (iii) to the extent determined by the
Administrative Agent to be necessary to ensure pro rata borrowings commencing with the initial borrowing after giving effect to such increase, the Borrower shall prepay any BA Loans or Eurodollar Loans outstanding immediately prior to such initial
borrowing; as used herein, the “Increased Commitment Amount” means, at any time, aggregate amount of all increases pursuant to this proviso made at or prior to such time less the aggregate amount of all voluntary reductions of the
Revolving Credit Commitments made prior to such time. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the affected Lenders and shall be binding upon the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, such Lenders,
the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the affected Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder and under the other Credit
Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing, it being understood that no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Credit Documents
and any such other documents, and (d) to pay, indemnify, and hold harmless each Lender and the Administrative Agent and their respective directors, officers, employees, trustees and agents from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever, including reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel, with respect to the execution, delivery,

actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials applicable to the operations of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of the Real Estate (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “indemnified liabilities”),
provided that the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to the Administrative Agent or any Lender nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents with respect to indemnified liabilities arising
from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified or (ii) disputes among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and/or their transferees. The agreements in this Section 14.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and

Assigns; Participations and Assignments. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the
Letter of Credit Issuer that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and
any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this
Section. Nothing in this 
  

 136 








 Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their
respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Letter of Credit Issuer that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly
contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
  
 (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any
Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not be
unreasonably withheld; it being understood that, without limitation, the Borrower shall have the right to withhold its consent to any assignment if, in order for such assignment to comply with applicable law, the Borrower would be required to obtain
the consent of, or make any filing or registration with, any Governmental Authority) of: 
  
 (A) the Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a
Lender (unless increased costs would result therefrom except if an Event of Default under Section 11.1 or Section 11.5 has occurred and is continuing), an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default under Section 11.1 or Section 11.5 has occurred and
is continuing, any other assignee; and 
  
 (B)
the Administrative Agent, and, in the case of Revolving Credit Commitments or Revolving Credit Loans or Canadian Letters of Credit only, the Swingline Lender and the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer, provided that no consent of the
Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be required for an assignment of (1) any Commitment to an assignee that is a Lender with a Commitment of the same Class immediately prior to giving effect to such
assignment or (2) any Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund. 
  
 (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 
  
 (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an
assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and
Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than the Dollar Equivalent of $2,500,000 or, in the case of a Term Loan Commitment or Term Loan, the Dollar Equivalent of $1,000,000 unless each
of the Borrower and the 
  

 137 








 Administrative Agent otherwise consents, provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be
required if an Event of Default under Section 11.1 or Section 11.5 has occurred and is continuing; provided further that contemporaneous assignments to a single assignee made by Affiliate Lenders shall be aggregated for purposes of
meeting the minimum assignment amount requirements stated above; 
  
 (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided that this clause shall not be
construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans; 
  
 (C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and
Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, provided that only one such fee shall be payable in the event of simultaneous assignments to or from two or more Approved Funds; 
  
 (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver
to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in a form approved by the Administrative Agent; and 
  
 (E) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, with respect to any assignment of the Canadian Revolving Credit
Commitments allocated to the Canadian Borrower in accordance with Section 2.1(b)(ii), the Assignee shall be a Canadian Resident and a pro rata portion of the Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments of the Canadian Lender or its Related Affiliate, as
applicable, allocated to the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.1(b)(ii) shall be assigned to a Related Affiliate, if applicable, of such assignee, that is either a “United States person” (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30)
of the Code) or is a Non-US Lender that has fulfilled the requirements of Section 5.4(b). 
  
 For the purpose of this Section 14.6(b), the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning: 
  
 “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans
and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered, advised or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers, advises or manages a
Lender. 
  
 (iii) Subject to acceptance and
recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each 
  

 138 








 Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the
interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released
from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to
be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.11, 3.5, 5.4 and 14.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 14.6 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement
as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section. 
  
 (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower, shall maintain at the
Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans and any payment made
by the Letter of Credit Issuer under any Letter of Credit owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). In the case of a Lender in respect of a Canadian Revolving Credit Commitment or a
Canadian Letter of Credit Commitment, the Register shall also record the address of the lending office of the Lender through which such Lender acts under this Agreement and whether or not the Lender is a Canadian Resident. Further, the Register
shall contain the name and address of the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent and the lending office through which each such Person acts under this Agreement. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower,
the Canadian Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, the Letter of Credit Issuer and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

  
 (v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed
Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in
paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No
assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
  
 (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the

  

 139 








 Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (each, a “Participant”) in
all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it), provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain
unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the other Lenders
shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such
Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that
such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 14.1 that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower and
the Canadian Borrower agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.11 and 5.4 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To
the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 14.8(b) as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 14.8(a) as though it were a Lender. 
  
 (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any
greater payment under Section 2.10 or 5.4 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the
Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Non-U.S. Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.4 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such
Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower, to comply with Section 5.4(b) as though it were a Lender. 
  
 (d) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any
portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security
interest, provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. In order to facilitate such
pledge or assignment, the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower hereby agree that, upon request of any Lender at any time and from time to time after the Borrower has made its initial borrowing hereunder, the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the
case may be, shall provide to such Lender, at the Borrower’s or the Canadian Borrower’s own expense, a promissory note, substantially in the form of Exhibit L-1 or L-2, as the case may be, evidencing the Term Loans and Revolving Credit
Loans and Swingline Loans, respectively, owing to such Lender. 
  

 140 








 (e) Subject to Section 14.16, the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower authorize each Lender to disclose to
any Participant, secured creditor of such Lender or assignee (each, a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates that
has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower and its Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower and its Affiliates in connection with such Lender’s
credit evaluation of the Borrower and its Affiliates prior to becoming a party to this Agreement. 
  
 (f) Each Person that is or becomes a Lender or Administrative Agent in respect of the Canadian Revolving Credit Commitment or Canadian Letter of Credit
Commitment shall (i) promptly direct the Administrative Agent to record in the Register the information described in Section 14.6(b)(iv) of this Agreement, (ii) upon written request made by Canadian Borrower, deliver to the Canadian Borrower and the
Administrative Agent such certificates, forms, documents, or other evidence as may be applicable and determined by the Canadian Borrower, acting reasonably, to be reasonably satisfactory to determine whether such Person is a Canadian Resident, and
(iii) promptly direct the Administrative Agent to amend the Register to reflect any change in the information contained therein with respect to such Person. 
  
 14.7. Replacements of Lenders under Certain Circumstances. The Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of the Canadian Borrower) shall be
permitted to replace any Lender that (a) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.12, 3.5 or 5.4, (b) is affected in the manner described in Section 2.10(a)(iii) and as a result thereof any of the actions described in
such Section is required to be taken or (c) becomes a Defaulting Lender, with a replacement bank or other financial institution, provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) the Borrower and/or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable shall repay (or the replacement bank or institution shall purchase, at par) all Loans and other amounts (other than any
disputed amounts), pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.11, 2.12, 3.5 or 5.4, as the case may be) owing to such replaced Lender prior to the date of replacement, (iv) the replacement bank or institution, if not already a Lender, and the terms and conditions
of such replacement, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (v) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.6 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated
to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein) and (vi) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against
the replaced Lender. 
  
 14.8. Adjustments; Set-off. (a) If
any Lender (a “benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to
events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 11.5, or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans, or interest thereon,
such 
  

 141 








 benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such
other Lender’s Loan, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or
proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits
returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. 
  
 (b) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower or the Canadian
Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any
currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower,
as the case may be. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give
such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 
  
 14.9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic transmission), and all of
said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
  
 14.10. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability
in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
  
 14.11. Integration. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents represent the agreement of the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to subject matter hereof not expressly set
forth or referred to herein or in the other Credit Documents. 
  

 142 








 14.12. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL
BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
  
 14.13. Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers. The Borrower and the Canadian Borrower each hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: 
  
 (a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding
relating to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of
the United States of America for the Southern District of New York and appellate courts from any thereof; 
  
 (b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of
any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same; 
  
 (c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered
or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the Borrower at its address set forth in Section 14.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

  
 (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to
effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and 
  
 (e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this
Section 14.13 any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages. 
  
 14.14. Acknowledgments. The Borrower and the Canadian Borrower each hereby acknowledge that: 
  
 (a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents; 
  
 (b) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary
relationship with or duty to the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, and the relationship between Administrative Agent and Lenders, on one hand, and the Borrower
or the Canadian Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and 
  

 143 








 (c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Credit Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of
the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders or among the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower and the Lenders. 
  
 14.15. WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL. THE BORROWER, THE CANADIAN BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN. 
  
 14.16. Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall hold all non-public information furnished by
or on behalf of the Borrower or the Canadian Borrower in connection with such Lender’s evaluation of whether to become a Lender hereunder or obtained by such Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement
(“Confidential Information”), confidential in accordance with its customary procedure for handling confidential information of this nature and (in the case of a Lender that is a bank) in accordance with safe and sound banking
practices and in any event may make disclosure as required or requested by any governmental agency or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process or to such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s attorneys, professional advisors or
independent auditors or Affiliates, provided that unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any request by any governmental agency or representative
thereof (other than any such request in connection with an examination of the financial condition of such Lender by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information, and
provided further that in no event shall any Lender or the Administrative Agent be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent
agrees that it will not provide to prospective Transferees or to prospective direct or indirect contractual counterparties in swap agreements to be entered into in connection with Loans made hereunder any of the Confidential Information unless such
Person is advises of and agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 14.16. 
  
 Notwithstanding anything express or implied to the contrary herein or by the documents referred to or incorporated by reference herein, or any other prior or future oral or written statements by any parties hereto with respect to the
transactions contemplated herein or by the other Credit Documents, and whether or not any of them are legally binding, the obligations of confidentiality contained herein and therein, as they relate to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, shall not apply to the tax structure or tax treatment of such transactions, and each recipient (and its employees, representatives, or other agents) may immediately disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S.
Federal income tax structure and such recipient’s U.S. Federal income tax treatment of such transactions and any opinions or other tax analyses that have been provided by the parties hereto (or any agent thereof) to the recipient regarding such
tax structure or tax treatment. However, no such recipient shall disclose any information relating to such tax structure or tax treatment to the extent that non-disclosure is 
  

 144 








 reasonably necessary to comply with applicable securities law. This paragraph is intended to cause the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement not to be treated as having been offered under conditions of confidentiality for purposes of Section 1.6011-4(b)(3) (or any successor provision) of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 6011 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and shall be construed in a manner consistent with such purpose. 
  
 14.17. Judgment Currency. (a) The obligations of the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to make
payments in Dollars or in Canadian Dollars, as the case may be (the “Obligation Currency”), shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other
than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or a Lender of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be
payable to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or Lender under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against the Borrower, the Canadian Borrower or any other
Credit Party in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount
due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the rate of exchange prevailing, in each case, as of the date immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the
“Judgment Currency Conversion Date”). 
  
 (b) If
there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Borrower and the Canadian Borrower each covenant and agree to pay, or cause to be paid, such
additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the
Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date. 
  
 (c) For purposes of determining the prevailing rate of exchange, such amounts
shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency. 
  
 14.18. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L.
107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other
information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.
