(b)    Applications.  At any time before the Termination Date, the relevant L/C Issuer shall, at the request of the relevant Borrower, issue one or more Letters of Credit (in U.S. Dollars in the case of U.S. Letters of Credit and either in U.S. Dollars or Canadian Dollars in the case of Canadian Letters of Credit), in a form satisfactory to the relevant L/C Issuer, with expiration dates no later than the earlier of 12 months from the date of issuance (or which are cancelable not later than 12 months from the date of issuance and each renewal) or sixty (60) days prior to the Termination Date, in an aggregate face amount as set forth above, upon the receipt of an application duly executed by the relevant Borrower in the form then customarily prescribed by such L/C Issuer for the Letter of Credit requested (each an “Application”).  Each Borrower agrees that if on the Termination Date any Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower remain outstanding, such Borrower shall then deliver to Administrative Agent, without notice or demand, Cash Collateral in an amount equal to 110% of the aggregate amount of each such Letter of Credit then outstanding (which shall be held by Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Section 8.4).  Notwithstanding anything contained in any Application to the contrary:  (i) the relevant Borrower shall pay fees in connection with each Letter of Credit as set forth in Section 2.12, (ii) except as otherwise provided in Sections 2.9, 2.19 or 2.20, unless an Event of Default exists, the relevant L/C Issuer will not call for the funding by the relevant Borrower of any amount under a Letter of Credit before being presented with a drawing thereunder, and (iii) if the relevant L/C Issuer is not timely reimbursed for the amount of any drawing under a Letter of Credit on the date such drawing is paid, the relevant Borrower’s obligation to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of such drawing shall bear interest (which such Borrower hereby promises to pay) from and after the date such drawing is paid at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of a Letter of Credit issued in U.S. Dollars, the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed) and (y) in the case of a Letter of Credit issued in Canadian Dollars, the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Canadian Prime Rate from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed).  If a L/C Issuer issues any Letter of Credit with an expiration date that is automatically extended unless such L/C Issuer gives notice that the expiration date will not so extend beyond its then scheduled expiration date, unless Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders instruct the L/C Issuer otherwise, such L/C Issuer will give such notice of non‐renewal before the time necessary to prevent such automatic extension if before such required notice date:  (i) the expiration date of such Letter of Credit if so extended would be after the Termination Date, (ii) the relevant Revolving Credit Commitments have been terminated, or (iii) a Default or an Event of Default exists and either Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (with notice to Administrative Agent) have given such L/C Issuer instructions not to so permit the extension of the expiration date of such Letter of Credit.  Each L/C Issuer agrees to issue amendments to the Letter(s) of Credit increasing the amount, or extending the expiration date, thereof at the request of the relevant Borrower subject to the conditions of Section 4 and the other terms of this Section 2.3.

If a Borrower does not make any such reimbursement payment on the date due and the Participating Lenders fund their participations therein in the manner set forth in Section 2.3(e) below, then all payments thereafter received by Administrative Agent in discharge of any of the relevant Reimbursement Obligations shall be distributed in accordance with Section 2.3(e) below.
(d)    Obligations Absolute.

The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the L/C Issuer (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment), the L/C Issuer shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination.  In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, a L/C Issuer may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

Upon any failure by a Borrower to pay any Reimbursement Obligation at the time required on the date the related drawing is to be paid, as set forth in Section 2.3(c) above, or if the L/C Issuer is required at any time to return to a Borrower or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other Person any portion of any payment of any Reimbursement Obligation, each Participating Lender shall, not later than the Business Day it receives a certificate in the form of Exhibit A from the relevant L/C Issuer (with a copy to Administrative Agent) to such effect, if such certificate is received before 1:00 p.m., or not later than 1:00 p.m. the following Business Day, if such certificate is received after such time, pay to Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant L/C Issuer an amount equal to such Participating Lender’s relevant Revolver Percentage of such unpaid or recaptured Reimbursement Obligation together with interest on such amount accrued from the date the related payment was made by such L/C Issuer to the date of such payment by such Participating Lender at a rate per annum equal to:  (i) from the date the related payment was made by the L/C Issuer to the date two (2) Business Days after payment by such Participating Lender is due hereunder, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate (or, in the case of a Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars, the CDOR Rate for each such day as determined by Administrative Agent) and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation for each such day and (ii) from the date two (2) Business Days after the date such payment is due from such Participating Lender to the date such payment is made by such Participating Lender, (x) in the case of a U.S. Reimbursement Obligation, the Base Rate in effect for each such day and (y) in the case of a Canadian Reimbursement Obligation, the Canadian Prime Rate in effect for each such day.  Each such Participating Lender shall thereafter be entitled to receive its applicable Revolver Percentage of each payment received in respect of the relevant Reimbursement Obligation and of interest paid thereon, with the L/C Issuer retaining its relevant Revolver Percentage thereof as a Lender hereunder.  The several obligations of the Participating Lenders to the L/C Issuer(s) under this Section shall be absolute, irrevocable, and unconditional under any and all circumstances whatsoever and shall not be subject to any set off, counterclaim or defense to payment which any Participating Lender may have or have had against any Borrower, the L/C Issuer(s), Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person whatsoever.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such obligations shall not be affected by any Default or Event of Default or by any reduction or termination of any Commitment of any Lender, and each payment by a Participating Lender under this Section shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.  
(f)    Indemnification.  The relevant Participating Lenders shall, to the extent of their respective Revolver Percentages, indemnify the relevant L/C Issuer (to the extent not reimbursed by the relevant Borrower) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such L/C Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment) that such L/C Issuer may suffer or incur in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it.

Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the relevant L/C Issuer of Administrative Agent’s receipt of each such notice (and such L/C Issuer shall be entitled to assume that the conditions precedent to any such issuance, extension, amendment or increase have been satisfied unless notified to the contrary by Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders) and such L/C Issuer shall promptly notify Administrative Agent and the Lenders of the issuance of the Letter of Credit so requested.  
(h)    Replacement of the L/C Issuer.  A L/C Issuer may be replaced at any time by written agreement among Borrowers, Administrative Agent, the replaced L/C Issuer and the successor L/C Issuer.

For the purpose of complying with Interest Act (Canada), it is expressly stated that where interest is calculated pursuant to a rate based on a 365 or 366 day period (the “first rate”), the yearly rate or percentage of interest to which the first rate is equivalent is the first rate multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 365 or 366 (as may be applicable).  Canadian Borrower and the Canadian Lenders acknowledge and agree that there is a material distinction between the nominal and effective rates of interest and that they are capable of making the calculations necessary to compare such rates and that the rates of interest charged under this Agreement in respect of Obligations owing by Canadian Borrower are intended to be based on the nominal rate method and are not effective rates or yields.  The principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement.
Section 2.5.    Minimum Borrowing Amounts; Maximum Eurodollar Loans    .  Each Borrowing of Base Rate Loans advanced under a Credit shall be in an amount not less than U.S. $100,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of U.S. $50,000.  Each Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans advanced, continued or converted under a Credit shall be in an amount equal to U.S. $1,000,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of U.S. $500,000.  Each Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall be in an amount not less than the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of U.S. $100,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of U.S. $50,000.  Without Administrative Agent’s consent, there shall not be more than 8 Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans outstanding hereunder at any one time.  
Section 2.6.    Manner of Borrowing Loans and Designating Applicable Interest Rates    .  
(a)     Notice to Administrative Agent.  The relevant Borrower shall give notice to Administrative Agent by no later than 10:00 a.m.:  (i) at least three (3) Business Days before the date on which such Borrower requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans and (ii) on the date such Borrower requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or, in the case of Canadian Borrower, Canadian Prime Rate Loans.  The Loans included in each Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the type of rate specified in such notice of a new Borrowing.  Thereafter, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the relevant Borrower may from time to time elect to change or continue the type of interest rate borne by each Borrowing or, subject to the minimum amount requirement for each outstanding Borrowing set forth in Section 2.5, a portion thereof, as follows (except in the case of Canadian Prime Rate Loans which may not be converted to another type of interest rate option hereunder but must first be repaid before Canadian Borrower elects to have such amount, or any part thereof, consist of another type of Borrowing hereunder):  (i) if such Borrowing is of Eurodollar Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the relevant Borrower may continue part or all of such Borrowing as Eurodollar Loans or convert part or all of such Borrowing into Base Rate Loans or (ii) if such Borrowing is of Base Rate Loans, on any Business Day, the relevant Borrower may convert all or part of such Borrowing into Eurodollar Loans for an Interest Period or Interest Periods specified by such Borrower.  The relevant Borrower shall give all such notices requesting the advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing to Administrative Agent by telephone, telecopy, or other telecommunication device acceptable to Administrative Agent (which notice shall be irrevocable once given and, if by telephone, shall be promptly confirmed in writing), substantially in the form of Exhibit B or Exhibit C, as applicable, or in such other form acceptable to Administrative Agent.  Notice of the continuation of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans for an additional Interest Period or of the conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Loans must be given by no later than 10:00 a.m. at least three (3) Business Days before the date of the requested continuation or conversion.  All such notices concerning the advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing shall specify the date of the requested advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of the requested Borrowing to be advanced, continued or converted, the type of Loans to comprise such new, continued or converted Borrowing and, if such Borrowing is to be comprised of Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto.  Upon notice to Borrower by Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, in the case of an Event of Default under Section 8.1(j) or 8.1(k) with respect to any Borrower, without notice), no Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans shall be advanced, continued, or created by conversion if any Default or Event of Default then exists.  Borrowers agree that Administrative Agent may rely on any such telephonic, telecopy or other telecommunication notice given by any person Administrative Agent in good faith believes is an Authorized Representative without the necessity of independent investigation, and in the event any such notice by telephone conflicts with any written confirmation such telephonic notice shall govern if Administrative Agent has acted in reliance thereon.
(b)    Notice to the Lenders.  Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic, telecopy or other telecommunication notice to each Lender of any notice from a Borrower received pursuant to Section 2.6(a) above and, if such notice requests the Lenders to make Eurodollar Loans, Administrative Agent shall give notice to such Borrower and each Lender by like means of the interest rate applicable thereto promptly after Administrative Agent has made such determination.
(c)    Borrower’s Failure to Notify.  If a Borrower fails to give notice pursuant to Section 2.6(a) above of the continuation or conversion of any outstanding principal amount of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans before the last day of its then current Interest Period within the period required by Section 2.6(a) and such Borrowing is not prepaid in accordance with Section 2.9(a), such Borrowing shall automatically be converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans.  In the event any Borrower fails to give notice pursuant to Section 2.6(a) above of a Borrowing equal to the amount of a Reimbursement Obligation and has not notified Administrative Agent by 12:00 Noon on the day such Reimbursement Obligation becomes due that it intends to repay such Reimbursement Obligation through funds not borrowed under this Agreement, (i) in the case of U.S. Borrower, such Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans under the U.S. Revolving Credit (or, at the option of the Swing Line Lender, under the Swing Line) on such day in the amount of the U.S. Reimbursement Obligation then due, which Borrowing shall be applied to pay the U.S. Reimbursement Obligation then due, (ii) in the case of Canadian Borrower and relating to a Canadian Letter of Credit issued in U.S. Dollars, such Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans under the Canadian Revolving Credit on such day in the amount of the Canadian Reimbursement Obligation then due, which Borrowing shall be applied to pay the Canadian Reimbursement Obligation then due, and (iii) in the case of Canadian Borrower and relating to a Canadian Letter of Credit issued in Canadian Dollars, such Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans under the Canadian Revolving Credit on such day in the amount of the Canadian Reimbursement Obligation then due, which Borrowing shall be applied to pay the Canadian Reimbursement Obligation then due
(d)    Disbursement of Loans.  Not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of any requested advance of a new Borrowing, subject to Section 4, each Lender shall make available its Loan comprising part of such Borrowing in funds (and in the relevant currency) immediately available (i) in the case of Loans to U.S. Borrower, at the principal office of Administrative Agent in Chicago, Illinois (or at such other location as Administrative Agent shall designate) and (ii) in the case of Loans to Canadian Subsidiary, at such office in Canada as Administrative Agent shall have previously specified in a notice to each Canadian Lender (or at such other location as Administrative Agent shall designate).  Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of each new Borrowing available to the relevant Borrower at Administrative Agent’s principal office in Chicago, Illinois or, if such Borrowing is to be made to Canadian Borrower, at such office as Administrative Agent has previously specified in a notice to Canadian Borrower (or in each case at such other location as Administrative Agent shall designate), by depositing or wire transferring such proceeds to the credit of the relevant Borrower’s Designated Disbursement Account or as the relevant Borrower and Administrative Agent may otherwise agree.
(e)    Administrative Agent Reliance on Lender Funding.  Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by a Lender prior to (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, by 1:00 p.m. on) the date on which such Lender is scheduled to make payment to Administrative Agent of the proceeds of a Loan (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) that such Lender does not intend to make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such payment when due and Administrative Agent may in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to) make available to the relevant Borrower the proceeds of the Loan to be made by such Lender and, if any Lender has not in fact made such payment to Administrative Agent, such Lender shall, on demand, pay to Administrative Agent the amount made available to relevant Borrower attributable to such Lender together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was made available to such Borrower and ending on (but excluding) the date such Lender pays such amount to Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to:  (i) from the date the related advance was made by Administrative Agent to the date two (2) Business Days after payment by such Lender is due hereunder, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate (or, in the case of a Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars, the CDOR Rate for each such day as determined by Administrative Agent) and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation for each such day and (ii) from the date two (2) Business Days after the date such payment is due from such Lender to the date such payment is made by such Lender, the Base Rate in effect for each such day in the case of a Loan denominated in U.S. Dollars and the Canadian Prime Rate in effect for each such day in the case of a Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars.  If such amount is not received from such Lender by Administrative Agent immediately upon demand, the relevant Borrower will, on demand, repay to Administrative Agent the proceeds of the Loan attributable to such Lender with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan, but without such payment being considered a payment or prepayment of a Loan under Section 3.5 so that such Borrower will have no liability under such Section with respect to such payment.
Section 2.7.    Swing Loans    .  
(a)    Generally.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, as part of the U.S. Revolving Credit, the Swing Line Lender may, in its discretion, make loans in U.S. Dollars to U.S. Borrower under the Swing Line (individually a “Swing Loan” and collectively the “Swing Loans”) which shall not in the aggregate at any time outstanding exceed the Swing Line Sublimit.  Swing Loans may be availed of from time to time and borrowings thereunder may be repaid and used again during the period ending on the Termination Date.  Each Swing Loan shall be in a minimum amount of U.S. $250,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of U.S. $100,000.  All Swing Loans outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement on the Closing Date shall remain outstanding as the initial Borrowing of Swing Loans under this Agreement.
(b)    Interest on Swing Loans.  Each Swing Loan shall bear interest until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to (i) the sum of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans under the U.S. Revolving Credit as from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days elapsed) or (ii) the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed).  Interest on each Swing Loan shall be due and payable by U.S. Borrower on each Interest Payment Date and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise).
(c)    Requests for Swing Loans.  U.S. Borrower shall give Administrative Agent prior notice (which may be written or oral) no later than 12:00 Noon on the date upon which such Borrower requests that any Swing Loan be made, of the amount and date of such Swing Loan, and, if applicable, the Interest Period requested therefor.  Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the Swing Line Lender of any such notice received from such Borrower.  After receiving such notice, the Swing Line Lender shall in its discretion quote an interest rate to U.S. Borrower at which the Swing Line Lender would be willing to make such Swing Loan available to such Borrower for the Interest Period so requested (the rate so quoted for a given Interest Period being herein referred to as “Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate”).  U.S. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the interest rate quote is given for immediate and irrevocable acceptance.  If U.S. Borrower does not so immediately accept the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate for the full amount requested by such Borrower for such Swing Loan, the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate shall be deemed immediately withdrawn and such Swing Loan shall bear interest at the rate per annum determined by adding the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans under the U.S. Revolving Credit to the Base Rate as from time to time in effect.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the proceeds of each Swing Loan extended to U.S. Borrower shall be deposited or otherwise wire transferred to such Borrower’s Designated Disbursement Account or as such Borrower, Administrative Agent, and the Swing Line Lender may otherwise agree.  Anything contained in the foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, the undertaking of the Swing Line Lender to make Swing Loans shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement (provided that the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to assume that the conditions precedent to an advance of any Swing Loan have been satisfied unless notified to the contrary by Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders).  
(d)    Refunding Loans.  In its sole and absolute discretion, the Swing Line Lender may at any time, on behalf of U.S. Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to act on its behalf for such purpose) and with notice to U.S. Borrower and Administrative Agent, request each U.S. Lender to make a U.S. Revolving Loan in the form of a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s U.S. Revolver Percentage of the amount of the Swing Loans outstanding on the date such notice is given.  Unless an Event of Default described in Section 8.1(j) or 8.1(k) exists with respect to U.S. Borrower, regardless of the existence of any other Event of Default, each U.S. Lender shall make the proceeds of its requested U.S. Revolving Loan available to Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, at Administrative Agent’s office in Chicago, Illinois (or such other location designated by Administrative Agent), before 12:00 Noon on the Business Day following the day such notice is given.  Administrative Agent shall promptly remit the proceeds of such Borrowing to the Swing Line Lender to repay the outstanding Swing Loans.
(e)    Participations.  If any U.S. Lender refuses or otherwise fails to make a U.S. Revolving Loan when requested by the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.7(d) (because an Event of Default described in Section 8.1(j) or 8.1(k) exists with respect to U.S. Borrower or otherwise), such U.S. Lender will, by the time and in the manner such Revolving Loan was to have been funded to the Swing Line Lender, purchase from the Swing Line Lender an undivided participating interest in the outstanding Swing Loans in an amount equal to its U.S. Revolver Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Swing Loans that were to have been repaid with such U.S. Revolving Loans.  Each U.S. Lender that so purchases a participation in a Swing Loan shall thereafter be entitled to receive its U.S. Revolver Percentage of each payment of principal received on the Swing Loan and of interest received thereon accruing from the date such Lender funded to the Swing Line Lender its participation in such Loan.  The several obligations of the U.S. Lenders under this Section shall be absolute, irrevocable, and unconditional under any and all circumstances whatsoever and shall not be subject to any set off, counterclaim or defense to payment which any such Lender may have or have had against U.S. Borrower, any other Lender, or any other Person whatsoever.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such obligations shall not be affected by any Default or Event of Default or by any reduction or termination of the Commitments of any Lender, and each payment made by a U.S. Lender under this Section shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding, or reduction whatsoever.
Section 2.8.    Maturity of Loans    .  
(a)    Scheduled Payments of Term Loans.  U.S. Borrower shall make principal payments on the Term Loans in installments on the last day of each March, June, September, and December in each year, commencing with the calendar quarter ending March 31, 2016, with the amount of each such principal installment to equal the amount set forth in Column B below shown opposite of the relevant due date as set forth in Column A below:

, with a final payment of all principal and interest not sooner paid on the Term Loans due and payable on Term Loan Maturity Date.  Each such principal payment shall be applied to the Lenders holding the Term Loans pro rata based upon their Term Loan Percentages.
(b)    Revolving Loans.  Each U.S. Revolving Loan, both for principal and interest then outstanding, shall mature and be due and payable by U.S. Borrower on the Termination Date.  Each Canadian Revolving Loan, both for principal and interest then outstanding, shall mature and be due and payable by Canadian Borrower on the Termination Date.
(c)    Swing Loans.  Each Swing Loan, both for principal and interest not sooner paid, shall mature and be due and payable by U.S. Borrower on the Termination Date.  
Section 2.9.    Prepayments    .  
(a)    Optional Prepayments.  Any Borrower may prepay in whole or in part (but, if in part, then:  (i) if such Borrowing is of Base Rate Loans, in an amount not less than U.S. $100,000, (ii) if such Borrowing is of Canadian Prime Rate Loans, in an amount not less than the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of U.S. $100,000, (iii) if such Borrowing is of Eurodollar Loans, in an amount not less than U.S. $500,000, and (iv) in each case, in an amount such that the minimum amount required for a Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.5 and 2.7 remains outstanding) any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans at any time upon three (3) Business Days prior notice by the relevant Borrower to Administrative Agent or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, notice delivered by the relevant Borrower to Administrative Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. on the date of prepayment (or, in any case, such shorter period of time then agreed to by Administrative Agent), such prepayment, in each case, to be made by the payment of the principal amount to be prepaid and, in the case of any Term Loans or Eurodollar Loans or Swing Loans, accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for prepayment plus any amounts due the Lenders under Section 3.4.  
(b)    Mandatory Prepayments.  
(i)    If any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of a Loan Party shall at any time or from time to time make or agree to make a Disposition or shall suffer an Event of Loss with respect to any Property, then U.S. Borrower shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of such proposed Disposition or Event of Loss (including the amount of the estimated Net Cash Proceeds to be received by such Loan Party or such Subsidiary in respect thereof) and, promptly upon receipt by such Loan Party or such Subsidiary of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Disposition or Event of Loss, U.S. Borrower shall prepay, or cause to be prepaid, the Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the amount of all such Net Cash Proceeds; provided that (w) proceeds from a Disposition or Event of Loss relating to Property of a Canadian Loan Party or its Subsidiaries shall only be applied to the Obligations owing by the Canadian Loan Parties (unless and until such proceeds are distributed to a U.S. Loan Party), (x) so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, this subsection shall not require any such prepayment with respect to Net Cash Proceeds received on account of an Event of Loss so long as such Net Cash Proceeds are applied to replace or restore the relevant Property in accordance with the relevant Collateral Documents, (y) this subsection shall not require any such prepayment with respect to Net Cash Proceeds received on account of Dispositions during any fiscal year of U.S. Borrower not exceeding $500,000 (or its U.S. Dollar Equivalent) in the aggregate so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, and (z) in the case of any Disposition not covered by clause (y) above, so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, if U.S. Borrower states in its notice of such event that the relevant Loan Party or Subsidiary intends to reinvest, within 90 days of the applicable Disposition, the Net Cash Proceeds thereof in assets similar to the assets which were subject to such Disposition, then U.S. Borrower shall not be required to make, or cause to be made, a mandatory prepayment under this subsection in respect of such Net Cash Proceeds to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds are actually reinvested in such similar assets with such 90 day period.  Promptly after the end of such 90 day period, U.S. Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent whether the relevant Loan Party or such Subsidiary has reinvested such Net Cash Proceeds in such similar assets, and, to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds have not been so reinvested, U.S. Borrower shall promptly prepay, or cause to be prepaid, the Obligations in the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds not so reinvested.  The amount of each such prepayment shall be applied, subject to clause (w) above, first to the outstanding Term Loans until paid in full and then to the Revolving Credit, provided in each case that proceeds relating to Eligible Inventory and Eligible Receivables then included in the U.S. Borrowing Base or Canadian Borrowing Base shall first be applied to the relevant Revolving Credit.  If Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders so request, all proceeds of such Disposition or Event of Loss shall be deposited with Administrative Agent (or its agent) and held by it in the Collateral Account.  So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, Administrative Agent is authorized to disburse amounts representing such proceeds from the Collateral Account to or at U.S. Borrower’s direction for application to or reimbursement for the costs of replacing, rebuilding or restoring such Property.
(ii)    If after the Closing Date any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of a Loan Party shall issue any Indebtedness, other than Indebtedness permitted by Section 7.1, U.S. Borrower shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of the estimated Net Cash Proceeds of such issuance to be received by or for the account of the relevant Loan Party or such Subsidiary in respect thereof.  Promptly upon receipt by the relevant Loan Party or such Subsidiary of Net Cash Proceeds of such issuance, U.S. Borrower shall prepay, or cause to be prepaid, the Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds.  The amount of each such prepayment shall be applied first to the outstanding Term Loans until paid in full and then to the Revolving Credit (applied as between the U.S. Revolving Credit and the Canadian Revolving Credit as Administrative Agent shall determine in its discretion).  U.S. Borrower acknowledges that its performance hereunder shall not limit the rights and remedies of the Lenders for any breach of Section 7.1 or any other terms of the Loan Documents.
(iii)    U.S. Borrower shall, on each date the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments are reduced pursuant to Section 2.17, prepay the U.S. Revolving Loans, Swing Loans, and, if necessary, prefund the U.S. L/C Obligations by the amount, if any, necessary to reduce the sum of the aggregate principal amount of U.S. Revolving Loans, Swing Loans, and U.S. L/C Obligations then outstanding to the amount to which the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments have been so reduced.  Canadian Borrower shall, on each date the Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments are reduced pursuant to Section 2.17, prepay the Canadian Revolving Loans and, if necessary, prefund the Canadian L/C Obligations by the amount, if any, necessary to reduce the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Canadian Revolving Loans and Canadian L/C Obligations then outstanding to the amount to which the Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments have been so reduced.
(iv)    If at any time the sum of the unpaid principal balance of the U.S. Revolving Loans, Swing Loans, and U.S. L/C Obligations then outstanding shall be in excess of the U.S. Borrowing Base as then determined and computed, U.S. Borrower shall immediately and without notice or demand pay over the amount of the excess to Administrative Agent for the account of the U.S. Lenders as and for a mandatory prepayment on such Obligations, with each such prepayment first to be applied to the U.S. Revolving Loans and Swing Loans until paid in full with any remaining balance to be held by Administrative Agent in the Collateral Account as security for the Obligations owing with respect to the U.S. Letters of Credit.  If at any time the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the sum of the unpaid principal balance of the Canadian Revolving Loans and Canadian L/C Obligations then outstanding shall be in excess of the Canadian Borrowing Base as then determined and computed (on a U.S. Dollar Equivalent basis), Canadian Borrower shall immediately and without notice or demand pay over the amount of the excess to Administrative Agent for the account of the Canadian Lenders as and for a mandatory prepayment on such Obligations, with each such prepayment first to be applied to the Canadian Revolving Loans until paid in full with any remaining balance to be held by Administrative Agent in the Collateral Account as security for the Obligations owing with respect to the Canadian Letters of Credit.  
(v)    If at any time the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the sum of the unpaid principal balance of the Canadian Revolving Loans and Canadian L/C Obligations then outstanding shall be in excess of the Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments, Canadian Borrower shall immediately and without notice or demand pay over the amount of the excess to Administrative Agent for the account of the Canadian Lenders as and for a mandatory prepayment on such Obligations, with each such prepayment first to be applied to the Canadian Revolving Loans until paid in full with any remaining balance to be held by Administrative Agent in the Collateral Account as security for the Obligations owing with respect to the Canadian Letters of Credit. 
(vi)    Unless the relevant Borrower otherwise directs, prepayments of Loans under this Section 2.9(b) shall be applied first to Borrowings of Base Rate Loans (or, in case of Loans in Canadian Dollars owing by Canadian Borrower, Borrowings of Canadian Prime Rate Loans) until payment in full thereof with any balance applied to Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans in the order in which their Interest Periods expire.  Each prepayment of Loans under this Section 2.9(b) shall be made by the payment of the principal amount to be prepaid and, in the case of any Term Loans or Eurodollar Loans or Swing Loans, accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment together with any amounts due the Lenders under Section 3.3.  Each prefunding of L/C Obligations shall be made in accordance with Section 8.4.
(c)    Any amount of Revolving Loans and Swing Loans paid or prepaid before the Termination Date may, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, be borrowed, repaid and borrowed again.  No amount of the Term Loans paid or prepaid may be reborrowed, and, in the case of any partial prepayment, such prepayment shall be applied to the remaining amortization payments on the Term Loans in the inverse order of maturity.
Section 2.10.    Default Rate    .  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, while any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, Borrowers shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by Law) on the principal amount of all Loans and Reimbursement Obligations, letter of credit fees and other amounts at a rate per annum equal to:
(a)    for any Base Rate Loan or any Swing Loan bearing interest based on the Base Rate, the sum of 2.0% plus the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect; 
(b)    for any Canadian Prime Rate Loan, the sum of 2.0% plus the Applicable Margin plus the Canadian Prime Rate from time to time in effect; 
(c)    for any Eurodollar Loan or any Swing Loan bearing interest at Administrative Agent’s Quoted Rate, the sum of 2.0% plus the rate of interest in effect thereon at the time of such default until the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and, thereafter, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2.0% plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect;
(d)    for any Reimbursement Obligation, the sum of 2.0% plus the amounts due under Section 2.3 with respect to such Reimbursement Obligation; 
(e)    for any Letter of Credit, the sum of 2.0% plus the letter of credit fee due under Section 2.12 with respect to such Letter of Credit; and
(f)    for any other amount owing hereunder not covered by clauses (a) through (e) above, the sum of 2% plus the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect;
provided, that in the absence of acceleration pursuant to Section 8.2 or 8.3, any adjustments pursuant to this Section shall be made at the election of Administrative Agent, acting at the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders, with written notice to the relevant Borrower (which election may be retroactively effective to the date of such Event of Default). While any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, interest shall be paid on demand of Administrative Agent at the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders. 
Section 2.11.    Evidence of Indebtedness    .  (a)     Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of a Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.
(b)    Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the type thereof (including the currency thereof) and the Interest Period with respect thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by Administrative Agent hereunder from a Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.
(c)    The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to subsections (a) and (b) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided, that the failure of Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the relevant Borrower to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms.
(d)    Any Lender may request that its Loans be evidenced by a promissory note or notes in the forms of Exhibit D‐1 (in the case of its Term Loan and referred to herein as a “Term Note”), Exhibit D‐2 (in the case of its U.S. Revolving Loans and referred to herein as a “U.S. Revolving Note”), Exhibit D‐3 (in the case of its Canadian Revolving Loans and referred to herein as a “Canadian Revolving Note”), or Exhibit D‐4 (in the case of its Swing Loans and referred to herein as a “Swing Note”), as applicable (the Term Notes, U.S. Revolving Notes, Canadian Revolving Notes, and Swing Note being hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Notes” and individually as a “Note”).  In such event, the relevant Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender or its registered assigns in the amount of the relevant Commitment or Swing Line Sublimit, as applicable.  Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note or Notes and interest thereon shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 11.2) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the order of the payee named therein or any assignee pursuant to Section 11.2, except to the extent that any such Lender or assignee subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in subsections (a) and (b) above.

On the date of issuance or extension, or increase in the amount, of any U.S. Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof, U.S. Borrower shall pay to the L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee equal to 0.125%% of the face amount of (or of the increase in the face amount of) such U.S. Letter of Credit.  Quarterly in arrears, on the last day of each March, June, September, and December, commencing on the first such date occurring after the date hereof, U.S. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders in accordance with their U.S. Revolver Percentages, a letter of credit fee at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed) in effect during each day of such quarter applied to the daily average face amount of U.S. Letters of Credit outstanding during such quarter.  In addition, U.S. Borrower shall pay to the L/C Issuer for its own account the L/C Issuer’s standard issuance, drawing, negotiation, amendment, assignment, and other fees and charges for each U.S. Letter of Credit as established by the L/C Issuer from time to time.

(e)    Administrative Agent Fees.  Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for its own use and benefit, the fees agreed to between Administrative Agent and Borrower in a fee letter dated the Closing Date, or as otherwise agreed to in writing between them.
Section 2.13.    Place and Application of Payments    .  All payments of principal of and interest on the Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations, and all other Obligations payable by Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall be made by the relevant Borrower (a) in the case of payments by U.S. Borrower, to Administrative Agent by no later than 12:00 Noon on the due date thereof at the office of Administrative Agent in Chicago, Illinois (or such other location as Administrative Agent may designate to such Borrower) and (b) in the case of payments by Canadian Borrower, to Administrative Agent no later than 12:00 Noon local time at the place of payment to such office as Administrative Agent has previously specified in a notice to Canadian Borrower, in each case for the benefit of the Lender(s) or L/C Issuer entitled thereto.  Any payments received after such time shall be deemed to have been received by Administrative Agent on the next Business Day.  All such payments shall be made in U.S. Dollars (except in the case of Loans or Reimbursement Obligations denominated in Canadian Dollars and interest thereon, in which case all such payments shall be made in Canadian Dollars), in immediately available funds at the place of payment, in each case without set‐off or counterclaim.  Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest on Loans and on Reimbursement Obligations in which the Lenders have purchased Participating Interests ratably to the Lenders and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the L/C Issuers hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the L/C Issuers, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if a Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the L/C Issuers, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or L/C Issuer, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to:  (i) from the date the distribution was made to the date two (2) Business Days after payment by such Lender is due hereunder, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate (or, in the case of an Obligation denominated in Canadian Dollars, the CDOR Rate for each such day as determined by Administrative Agent) and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation for each such day and (ii) from the date two (2) Business Days after the date such payment is due from such Lender to the date such payment is made by such Lender, the Base Rate in effect for each such day in the case of an Obligation denominated in U.S. Dollars and the Canadian Prime Rate for each such day in the case of an Obligation denominated in Canadian Dollars.
Section 2.14.    Non‐Business Days.      Subject to the definition of Interest Period, if any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day on which date such payment shall be due and payable.  In the case of any payment of principal falling due on a day which is not a Business Day, interest on such principal amount shall continue to accrue during such extension at the rate per annum then in effect, which accrued amount shall be due and payable on the next scheduled date for the payment of interest.
Section 2.15.    Payments Set Aside    . To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of a Borrower or any other Loan Party is made to Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender, or Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and each L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate (or, in the case of a payment denominated in Canadian Dollars, the CDOR Rate for each such day as determined by Administrative Agent) and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation for each such day.
Section 2.16.    Account Debit    .  Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Administrative Agent to charge any of such Borrower’s deposit accounts maintained with Administrative Agent or its affiliates for the amounts from time to time necessary to pay any then due Obligations; provided that each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Administrative Agent shall not be under an obligation to do so and Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability to any Borrower or any other Person for Administrative Agent’s failure to do so.
Section 2.17.    Commitment Terminations    .  U.S. Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time, upon five (5) Business Days prior written notice to Administrative Agent (or such shorter period of time agreed to by Administrative Agent), to terminate the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments without premium or penalty and in whole or in part, any partial termination to be (i) in an amount not less than U.S. $5,000,000 and (ii) allocated ratably among the U.S. Lenders in proportion to their respective U.S. Revolver Percentages, provided that the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments may not be reduced to an amount less than the sum of the aggregate principal amount of U.S. Revolving Loans, Swing Loans, and U.S. L/C Obligations then outstanding.  Canadian Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time, upon five (5) Business Days prior written notice to Administrative Agent (or such shorter period of time agreed to by Administrative Agent), to terminate the Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments without premium or penalty and in whole or in part, any partial termination to be (i) in an amount not less than U.S. $1,000,000 and (ii) allocated ratably among the Canadian Lenders in proportion to their respective Canadian Revolver Percentages, provided that the Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments may not be reduced to an amount less than the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Canadian Revolving Loans and Canadian L/C Obligations then outstanding.  Any termination of the applicable Revolving Credit Commitments below the relevant L/C Sublimit or Swing Line Sublimit then in effect shall reduce such L/C Sublimit and Swing Line Sublimit, as applicable, by a like amount.  Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to each Lender of any such termination of the relevant Commitments.  Any termination of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.17 may not be reinstated.
Section 2.18.    Replacement of Lenders    .  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.4, or if a Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.1 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 3.7, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non‐Consenting Lender, then Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.2), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section 3.4) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:
(i)    Borrowers shall have paid to Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 11.2;
(ii)    such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and funded participations in L/C Obligations, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.5 as if the Loans owing to it were prepaid rather than assigned) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts);
(iii)    in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.4 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.1, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;
(iv)    such assignment does not conflict with applicable Law; and
(v)    in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non‐Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.
A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
Section 2.19.    Defaulting Lenders    . 
(a)    Defaulting Lender Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:
(i)    Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders. 
(ii)    Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 8 or otherwise) or received by Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.7 hereto shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the relevant L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.20; fourth, as Borrowers may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by Administrative Agent and Borrowers, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the relevant L/C Issuer’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.20; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the relevant L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to any Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Obligations in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Obligations owed to, all Non‐Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations and Swing Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their Percentages of the relevant Commitments without giving effect to Section 2.19(a)(iv) below. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.19(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
(iii)    Certain Fees. 
(A)    No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and no Borrower shall be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender). 
(B)    Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive L/C Participation Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.20.
(C)    With respect to any L/C Participation Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (B) above, Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non‐Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations or Swing Loans that has been reallocated to such Non‐Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such L/C Issuer’s or Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.
(iv)    Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations and Swing Loans shall be reallocated among the Non‐Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentages of the relevant Commitments (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitments) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless Borrowers shall have otherwise notified Administrative Agent at such time, Borrowers shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Loans and interests in L/C Obligations and Swing Loans of any Non‐Defaulting Lender to exceed the relevant Revolving Credit Commitment of such Non‐Defaulting Lender.  No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non‐Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non‐Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.
(v)    Cash Collateral; Repayment of Swing Loans.  If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to them hereunder or under Law, (x) first, prepay Swing Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.20.
(b)    Defaulting Lender Cure.  If Borrowers, Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender and each L/C Issuer agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentages of the relevant Commitments (without giving effect to Section 2.19(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of a Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
(c)    New Letters of Credit.  So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no L/C Issuer shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.
Section 2.20.    Cash Collateral for Fronting Exposure      At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one (1) Business Day following the written request of Administrative Agent or any L/C Issuer (with a copy to Administrative Agent) Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuers’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.19(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount.
(a)    Grant of Security Interest.  The relevant Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuers, and agree to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations, to be applied pursuant to clause (b) below.  If at any time Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuers as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the relevant Borrower shall, promptly upon demand by Administrative Agent, pay or provide to Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).
(b)    Application.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under Sections 2.19 or 2.20 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.
(c)    Termination of Requirement.  Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.20(c) following (A) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (B) the determination by Administrative Agent and each L/C Issuer that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.20, the Person providing Cash Collateral and each L/C Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations; and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by Borrower or any other Loan Party, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.
Section 2.21.    Increase in U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments    .  U.S. Borrower may, on any Business Day prior to the Termination Date, with the written consent of Administrative Agent, the relevant L/C Issuer, and the Swing Line Lender, increase the aggregate amount of the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments by delivering an Increase Request substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J (or in such other form acceptable to Administrative Agent) to Administrative Agent at least five (5) Business Days prior to the desired effective date of such increase (the “Revolver Increase”) identifying an additional Lender (or additional U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment for an existing Lender) and the amount of its U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment (or additional amount of its U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment); provided, however, that:
(a)    the aggregate amount of all such Revolver Increases shall not exceed U.S. $20,000,000 and any such Revolver Increase shall be in an amount not less than U.S. $5,000,000 (or such lesser amount then agreed to by Administrative Agent);
(b)    no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of the request or the effective date of the Revolver Increase; and
(c)    each of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5 and in the other Loan Documents shall be and remain true and correct on the effective date of such Revolver Increase, except to the extent the same expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct as of such earlier date.
The effective date of the Revolver Increase shall be agreed upon by U.S. Borrower and Administrative Agent.  Upon the effectiveness thereof, Schedule 1 shall be deemed amended to reflect the Revolver Increase and the new Lender (or, if applicable, existing Lender) shall advance U.S. Revolving Loans in an amount sufficient such that after giving effect to its U.S. Revolving Loans each Lender shall have outstanding its U.S. Revolver Percentage of all U.S. Revolving Loans outstanding under the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments.  It shall be a condition to such effectiveness that (A) if any Eurodollar Loans are outstanding on the date of such effectiveness, such Eurodollar Loans shall be deemed to be prepaid on such date and U.S. Borrower shall pay any amounts owing to the Lenders pursuant to Section 3.5 and (B) U.S. Borrower shall not have terminated any portion of the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to Section 2.17. U.S. Borrower agrees to pay the expenses of Administrative Agent (including reasonable attorneys fees) relating to any Revolver Increase.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Lender shall have any obligation to increase its U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment and no Lender’s U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment shall be increased without its consent thereto, and each Lender may at its option, unconditionally and without cause, decline to increase its U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment.
Section 2.22.    Appointment and Authorization of U.S. Borrower    .  Canadian Borrower irrevocably appoints and authorizes U.S. Borrower as its agent hereunder to make requests on such Borrower’s behalf under Section s hereof for Borrowings, to select on such Borrower’s behalf the interest rate to be applicable to such Borrowings, and to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are delegated to the Borrowers by the terms thereof, together with all such powers as are     
Section 2.23.    Appointment of U.S. Borrower as Agent for Borrowers; Reliance by Administrative Agent    .  Canadian Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and appoints U.S. Borrower as its agent hereunder to make requests on such Borrower’s behalf under Section 2 hereof for Borrowings, to select on such Borrower’s behalf the interest rate to be applicable to such Borrowings, to request Letters of Credit (and any amendments or extensions thereof), and to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are delegated to the Borrowers by the terms thereof, together with all such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Canadian Borrower irrevocably agrees that Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, and the Lenders may conclusively rely on the authority of U.S. Borrower in exercising the powers granted to the Borrowers by the terms of this Agreement, and Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, and the Lenders shall be entitled to conclusively presume that any action by U.S. Borrower under the Loan Documents is taken on behalf of the Borrowers whether or not U.S. Borrower so indicates.
		
	SECTION 3.
	TAXES; CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES    .


Section 3.1.    Taxes    .  
(a)    Certain Defined Terms.  For purposes of this Section, the term “Lender” includes any L/C Issuer and the term “applicable Law” includes FATCA.
(b)    Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower or any other Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law.  If any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Borrower or Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(c)    Payment of Other Taxes by the Loan Parties.  Each Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(d)    Indemnification by the Loan Parties.  The Borrowers and other Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrowers by a Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(e)    Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the relevant Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.2(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this subsection (e).
(f)    Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, such Borrower or other Loan Party shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.
(g)    Status of Lenders.  (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the relevant Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by such Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by such Borrower or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by a Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by such Borrower or Administrative Agent as will enable such Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.1(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
(A)    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to U.S. Borrower and Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of U.S. Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W‐9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
(B)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to U.S. Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(i)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W‐8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W‐8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(ii)    executed originals of IRS Form W‐8ECI;
(iii)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I‐1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of U.S. Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W‐8BEN; or
(iv)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W‐8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W‐8ECI, IRS Form W‐8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I‐2 or Exhibit I‐3, IRS Form W‐9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I‐4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to U.S. Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of U.S. Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit U.S. Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)    if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to U.S. Borrower and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by U.S. Borrower or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by U.S. Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for U.S. Borrower and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify U.S. Borrower and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(h)    Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out‐of‐pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this subsection (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this subsection (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after‐Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.  This subsection shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(i)    Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document.
Section 3.2.    Change of Law    .  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, if at any time any Change in Law makes it unlawful for any Lender to make or continue to maintain any Eurodollar Loans or to perform its obligations as contemplated hereby, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to Borrowers and such Lender’s obligations to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans under this Agreement shall be suspended until it is no longer unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans.  Borrowers shall prepay on demand the outstanding principal amount of any such affected Eurodollar Loans, together with all interest accrued thereon and all other amounts then due and payable to such Lender under this Agreement; provided, however, subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Borrowers may then elect to borrow the principal amount of the affected Eurodollar Loans from such Lender by means of Base Rate Loans (or, in the case of the Canadian Revolver, Canadian Prime Rate Loans) from such Lender, which Base Rate Loans shall not be made ratably by the Lenders but only from such affected Lender.
Section 3.3.    Unavailability of Deposits or Inability to Ascertain, or Inadequacy of, LIBOR    .  If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans:
(a)    Administrative Agent determines that deposits in U.S. Dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to it in the interbank eurodollar market for such Interest Period, or that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank eurodollar market adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBOR, or
(b)    the Required Lenders advise Administrative Agent that (i) LIBOR as determined by Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding their Eurodollar Loans for such Interest Period or (ii) that the making or funding of Eurodollar Loans become impracticable, 
then Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to Borrowers and the Lenders, whereupon until Administrative Agent notifies Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended.
Section 3.4.    Increased Costs    .  
(a)    Increased Costs Generally.  If any Change in Law shall:
(i)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBOR) or any L/C Issuer;
(ii)    subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or
(iii)    impose on any Lender or any L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender, such L/C Issuer or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, L/C Issuer or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, L/C Issuer or other Recipient, the relevant Borrower will pay to such Lender, L/C Issuer or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, L/C Issuer or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b)    Capital Requirements.  If any Lender or L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or L/C Issuer or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by any L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrowers will pay to such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c)    Certificates for Reimbursement.  A certificate of a Lender or L/C Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the relevant Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The relevant Borrower shall pay such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.
(d)    Delay in Requests.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation; provided that neither Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies such Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine‐month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
Section 3.5.    Funding Indemnity    .  If any Lender shall incur any loss, cost or expense (including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or re‐employment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain any Eurodollar Loan or Swing Loan bearing interest at the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate or the relending or reinvesting of such deposits or amounts paid or prepaid to such Lender) as a result of:
(a)    any payment, prepayment or conversion of a Eurodollar Loan or such Swing Loan on a date other than the last day of its Interest Period, 
(b)    any failure (because of a failure to meet the conditions of Section 7 or otherwise) by a Borrower to borrow or continue a Eurodollar Loan or such Swing Loan, or to convert a Base Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Loan or such Swing Loan on the date specified in a notice given pursuant to Section 2.6(a) or 2.7(c),
(c)    any failure by a Borrower to make any payment of principal on any Eurodollar Loan or such Swing Loan when due (whether by acceleration or otherwise), or
(d)    any acceleration of the maturity of a Eurodollar Loan or such Swing Loan as a result of the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder,
then, upon the demand of such Lender, such Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amount as will reimburse such Lender for such loss, cost or expense.  If any Lender makes such a claim for compensation, it shall provide to the relevant Borrower, with a copy to Administrative Agent, a certificate setting forth the amount of such loss, cost or expense in reasonable detail and the amounts shown on such certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
Section 3.6.    Discretion of Lender as to Manner of Funding    .  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of its Loans in any manner it sees fit, it being understood, however, that for the purposes of this Agreement all determinations hereunder with respect to Eurodollar Loans shall be made as if each Lender had actually funded and maintained each Eurodollar Loan through the purchase of deposits in the interbank eurodollar market having a maturity corresponding to such Loan’s Interest Period, and bearing an interest rate equal to LIBOR for such Interest Period.
Section 3.7.    Lending Offices; Mitigation Obligations    .  Each Lender may, at its option, elect to make its Loans hereunder at the branch, office or affiliate specified in its Administrative Questionnaire (each a “Lending Office”) for each type of Loan available hereunder or at such other of its branches, offices or affiliates as it may from time to time elect and designate in a written notice to Borrowers and Administrative Agent.   If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.4, or requires any Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.1, then such Lender shall (at the request of the relevant Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.4, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

	SECTION 5.
	REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.


Each Loan Party represents and warrants to Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the L/C Issuer as follows:
Section 5.1.    Organization and Qualification    .  Each Loan Party (a) is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing as a corporation, limited liability company, or partnership, as applicable, under the Laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized, (b) has full and adequate power to own its Property and conduct its business as now conducted, and (c) is duly licensed or qualified and in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it or the nature of the Property owned or leased by it requires such licensing or qualifying, except, with respect to this clause (c), where the failure to do so would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
Section 5.2.    Subsidiaries    .  Each Subsidiary  that is not a Loan Party (a) is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized, (b) has full and adequate power to own its Property and conduct its business as now conducted, and (c) is duly licensed or qualified and in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it or the nature of the Property owned or leased by it requires such licensing or qualifying, except, with respect to this clause (c), where the failure to do so would not have a Material Adverse Effect.  Schedule 5.2 identifies each Subsidiary (including Subsidiaries that are Loan Parties), the jurisdiction of its organization, the percentage of issued and outstanding shares of each class of its capital stock or other equity interests owned by any Loan Party and its Subsidiaries and, if such percentage is not 100% (excluding directors’ qualifying shares as required by Law), a description of each class of its authorized capital stock and other equity interests and the number of shares of each class issued and outstanding.  All of the outstanding shares of capital stock and other equity interests of each Subsidiary are validly issued and outstanding and fully paid and non‐assessable and all such shares and other equity interests indicated on Schedule 5.2 as owned by the relevant Loan Party or another Subsidiary are owned, beneficially and of record, by such Loan Party or such Subsidiary free and clear of all Liens other than the Liens granted in favor of Administrative Agent pursuant to the Collateral Documents or otherwise permitted by this Agreement.  There are no outstanding commitments or other obligations of any Subsidiary to issue, and no options, warrants or other rights of any Person to acquire, any shares of any class of capital stock or other equity interests of any Subsidiary.
Section 5.3.    Authority and Validity of Obligations    .  Each Loan Party has full right and authority to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents executed by it, to make the borrowings herein provided for (in the case of a Borrower), to guarantee the Secured Obligations (in the case of each Guarantor), to grant to Administrative Agent the Liens described in the Collateral Documents executed by such Loan Party, and to perform all of its obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents executed by it.  The Loan Documents delivered by the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries have been duly authorized, executed, and delivered by such Persons and constitute valid and binding obligations of such Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries enforceable against each of them in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance or similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity (regardless of whether the application of such principles is considered in a proceeding in equity or at Law); and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents do not, nor does the performance or observance by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of any of the matters and things herein or therein provided for, (a) contravene or constitute a default under any provision of Law or any judgment, injunction, order or decree binding upon any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of a Loan Party or any provision of the organizational documents (e.g., charter, certificate or articles of incorporation and by‐laws, certificate or articles of association and operating agreement, partnership agreement, or other similar organizational documents) of any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of a Loan Party, (b) contravene or constitute a default under any covenant, indenture or agreement of or affecting any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of a Loan Party or any of their respective Property, or (c) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any Property of any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of a Loan Party other than the Liens granted in favor of Administrative Agent pursuant to the Collateral Documents.
Section 5.4.    Use of Proceeds; Margin Stock    .  Borrowers shall use the proceeds of the Term Loans and any Revolving Credit advanced prior to the date hereof as set forth in the Existing Credit Agreement and any proceeds of the Revolving Credit advanced on or after the date hereof to finance certain fees and expenses associated with the closing of the credit facilities under this Agreement, for capital expenditures and Permitted Acquisitions entered into after the Closing Date, and for their general working capital purposes.  No Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), and no part of the proceeds of any Loan or any other extension of credit made hereunder will be used to purchase or carry any such margin stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such margin stock.  Margin stock (as hereinabove defined) constitutes less than 25% of the assets of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries which are subject to any limitation on sale, pledge or other restriction hereunder. 
Section 5.5.    Financial Reports    .  The consolidated balance sheet of Borrowers and their Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2015, and the related consolidated statements of income, retained earnings and cash flows of Borrowers and their Subsidiaries for the fiscal year then ended, and accompanying notes thereto, which financial statements are accompanied by the draft audit report of BDO USA, LLP, independent public accountants, heretofore furnished to Administrative Agent and the Lenders, fairly present the consolidated financial condition of Borrowers and their Subsidiaries as at said dates and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the periods then ended in conformity with GAAP applied on a consistent basis.  No Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries has contingent liabilities which are material to it other than as indicated on such financial statements or, with respect to future periods, on the financial statements furnished pursuant to Section 5.5.

The Secured Obligations shall be secured by valid, perfected, and enforceable Liens on all right, title, and interest of each Loan Party in all of its real property, personal property, and fixtures, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds, products, and profits thereof; provided, however, that:  (i) the Collateral shall not include Excluded Property, (ii) until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and thereafter until otherwise required by Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, Liens on vehicles or other goods which are subject to a certificate of title Law need not be perfected provided that the total value of such property at any one time not so perfected shall not exceed $250,000 (or its U.S. Dollar Equivalent) in the aggregate, (iii) the Collateral need not include (or be perfected if a Lien is granted) those assets of any Loan Party as to which Administrative Agent in its sole discretion determines that the cost of obtaining a security interest in or perfection thereof are excessive in relation to the value of the security to be afforded thereby, and (iv) the Collateral granted by the Canadian Loan Parties shall only secure the Canadian Obligations.  Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that the Liens on the Collateral shall be granted to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the holders of the Secured Obligations and shall be valid and perfected first priority Liens (to the extent perfection by filing, registration, recordation, possession or control is required herein or in any other Loan Document) subject to the proviso appearing at the end of the preceding sentence and to Liens permitted by Section 7.2, in each case pursuant to one or more Collateral Documents from such Persons, each in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent. 
(c)    Liens on Real Property.  In the event that any Loan Party owns or hereafter acquires any real property, such Loan Party shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and execute and deliver to Administrative Agent a charge, mortgage or deed of trust (together with any acknowledgment and direction or other documentation necessary in the opinion of the Administrative Agent) acceptable in form and substance to Administrative Agent for the purpose of granting to Administrative Agent (or a security trustee therefor) a Lien on such real property to secure the relevant Secured Obligations, shall pay all taxes, costs, and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in recording such charge, mortgage or deed of trust, and shall supply to Administrative Agent at Borrowers’ cost and expense a survey, environmental report, hazard insurance policy, appraisal report, and a mortgagee’s policy of title insurance from a title insurer acceptable to Administrative Agent insuring the validity of such mortgage or deed of trust and its status as a first Lien (subject to Liens permitted by this Agreement) on the real property encumbered thereby and such other instrument, documents, certificates, and opinions reasonably required by Administrative Agent in connection therewith.   
(d)    Depository Banks.  Each Loan Party shall maintain Administrative Agent (or one of its Affiliates) as its primary depository bank, including for its principal operating, administrative, cash management, lockbox arrangements, collection activity, and other deposit accounts for the conduct of its business.  Except for Excluded Deposit Accounts, within forty-five (45) days of the Closing Date, all deposit accounts shall be maintained with Administrative Agent or such other bank(s) reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent subject to deposit account control agreements in favor of Administrative Agent on terms reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent (all such deposit accounts maintained with Administrative Agent or with such other bank(s) subject to a deposit account control agreement being hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Assigned Accounts”).  Each Loan Party shall make such arrangements as may be reasonably requested by Administrative Agent to assure that all proceeds of the Collateral are deposited (in the same form as received) in one or more Assigned Accounts.  Any proceeds of Collateral received by any Loan Party shall be promptly deposited into an Assigned Account and, until so deposited, shall held by it in trust for Administrative Agent and the Lenders.  Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that Administrative Agent has (and is hereby granted to the extent it does not already have) a Lien on each Assigned Account and all funds contained therein to secure the relevant Secured Obligations.  Administrative Agent agrees with the Loan Parties that if and so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, amounts on deposit in the Assigned Accounts will (subject to the rules and regulations as from time to time in effect applicable to such demand deposit accounts) be made available to the relevant Loan Party for use in the conduct of its business.  Upon the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, Administrative Agent may apply the funds on deposit in any and all such Assigned Accounts to the Secured Obligations (whether or not then due).
(e)    Further Assurances.  Borrower agrees that it shall, and shall cause each Guarantor to, from time to time at the request of Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, execute and deliver such documents and do such acts and things as Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may reasonably request in order to provide for or perfect or protect such Liens on the Collateral.  In the event Borrower or any Guarantor forms or acquires any other Subsidiary after the date hereof, except as otherwise provided in Sections 6.12(a) and 6.12(b) above, Borrower shall promptly upon such formation or acquisition cause such newly formed or acquired Subsidiary to execute a Guaranty and such Collateral Documents as Administrative Agent may then require, and Borrower shall also deliver to Administrative Agent, or cause such Subsidiary to deliver to Administrative Agent, at Borrower’s cost and expense, such other instruments, documents, certificates, and opinions reasonably required by Administrative Agent in connection therewith.

(a) If the prepayment of the amount available for drawing under any or all outstanding Letters of Credit is required under Sections 2.3(b), 2.9(b), 2.19, 2.20, 8.2 or 8.3 above, Borrowers shall forthwith pay the amount required to be so prepaid, to be held by Administrative Agent as provided in subsection (b) below.
(b)    All amounts prepaid pursuant to subsection (a) above shall be held by Administrative Agent in one or more separate collateral accounts (each such account, and the credit balances, properties, and any investments from time to time held therein, and any substitutions for such account, any certificate of deposit or other instrument evidencing any of the foregoing and all proceeds of and earnings on any of the foregoing being collectively called the “Collateral Account”) as security for, and for application by Administrative Agent (to the extent available) to, the reimbursement of any payment under any Letter of Credit then or thereafter made by the L/C Issuer, and to the payment of the unpaid balance of all other Secured Obligations owing by such Borrower.  The Collateral Account shall be held in the name of and subject to the exclusive dominion and control of Administrative Agent as Secured Party.  If and when requested by the relevant Borrower, Administrative Agent shall invest funds held in the Collateral Account from time to time in direct obligations of, or obligations the principal of and interest on which are unconditionally guaranteed by, the United States of America with a remaining maturity of one year or less, provided that Administrative Agent is irrevocably authorized to sell investments held in the Collateral Account when and as required to make payments out of the Collateral Account for application to amounts due and owing from such Borrower to the L/C Issuer, Administrative Agent or the Lenders.  Subject to the terms of Sections 2.19 and 2.20, if Borrowers shall have made payment of all obligations referred to in subsection (a) above required under Section 2.9(b), at the request of Borrowers Administrative Agent shall release to the relevant Borrower amounts held in the Collateral Account so long as at the time of the release and after giving effect thereto no Default or Event of Default exists.  After all Letters of Credit have expired or been cancelled and the expiration or termination of all Commitments, at the request of Borrowers, Administrative Agent shall release any remaining amounts held in the Collateral Account following payment in full in cash of all Secured Obligations.
Section 8.5.    Post‐Default Collections    .  Anything contained herein or in the other Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding (including, without limitation, Section 2.9(b)), all payments and collections received in respect of the Obligations and all proceeds of the Collateral and payments made under or in respect of the Guaranty Agreements received, in each instance, by Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders after acceleration or the final maturity of the Obligations or termination of the Commitments as a result of an Event of Default shall be remitted to Administrative Agent and distributed as follows:
(a)    first, to the payment of any outstanding costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent, and any security trustee therefor, in monitoring, verifying, protecting, preserving or enforcing the Liens on the Collateral, in protecting, preserving or enforcing rights under the Loan Documents, and in any event including all costs and expenses of a character which the Loan Parties have agreed to pay Administrative Agent under Section 11.4 (such funds to be retained by Administrative Agent for its own account unless it has previously been reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Lenders, in which event such amounts shall be remitted to the Lenders to reimburse them for payments theretofore made to Administrative Agent);  
(b)    second, to the payment of any outstanding interest and fees due under the Loan Documents to be allocated pro rata in accordance with the aggregate unpaid amounts owing to each holder thereof;
(c)    third, to the payment of principal on the Loans, unpaid Reimbursement Obligations, together with amounts to be held by Administrative Agent as collateral security for any outstanding L/C Obligations pursuant to Section 8.4 (until Administrative Agent is holding an amount of cash equal to 110% of the then outstanding amount of all such L/C Obligations), and Hedging Liability, the aggregate amount paid to, or held as collateral security for, the Lenders and L/C Issuer and, in the case of Hedging Liability, their Affiliates to be allocated pro rata in accordance with the aggregate unpaid amounts owing to each holder thereof; 
(d)    fourth, to the payment of all other unpaid Secured Obligations and all other indebtedness, obligations, and liabilities of the Loan Parties secured by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Bank Product Obligations) to be allocated pro rata in accordance with the aggregate unpaid amounts owing to each holder thereof; and
(e)    finally, to the relevant Borrower or whoever else may be lawfully entitled thereto.
Section 8.6.    Implementation of CAM    .  (a)(i) On the CAM Exchange Date, to the extent not otherwise prohibited by a Legal Requirement or otherwise, each U.S. Lender shall immediately be deemed to have acquired (and shall promptly make payment therefor to Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.7) participations in the Swing Loans in an amount equal to such U.S. Lender’s Revolver Percentage of each Swing Loan outstanding on such date, (ii) except as provided in clause (iv) below, all Loans outstanding in Canadian Dollars (“Loans to be Converted”) shall be converted into U.S. Dollars (calculated on the basis of the relevant exchange rate as of the Business Day immediately preceding the CAM Exchange Date) (“Converted Loans”), (iii) all L/C Obligations outstanding in Canadian Dollars (“L/C Obligations to be Converted”) shall be converted into U.S. Dollars (calculated on the basis of the relevant exchange rate as of the Business Day immediately preceding the CAM Exchange Date) (“Converted L/C Obligations”), and (iv) on the CAM Exchange Date (with respect to Loans and L/C Obligations), each Lender severally, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that it shall purchase or sell in U.S. Dollars a participating interest in the Converted Loans and Converted L/C Obligations in an amount equal to its CAM Percentage of (x) the outstanding principal amount of the Loans and (y) the outstanding L/C Obligations, as applicable, such that in lieu of the interest of each Lender in each Credit in which it shall participate prior to the CAM Exchange Date, such Lender shall hold an interest in every one of the Credits whether or not such Lender shall have previously participated therein, equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage thereof on the CAM Exchange Date.  All Converted Loans and Converted L/C Obligations (which shall have been converted into Canadian Revolving Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars) shall bear interest at the rate which would otherwise be applicable to Base Rate Loans.  Each Lender, the U.S. Borrower and the Canadian Borrower 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.  Each of the U.S. Borrower and the Canadian Borrower agrees from time to time to execute and deliver to Administrative Agent all instruments and documents as Administrative Agent shall reasonably request to evidence and confirm the respective interests of the Lenders after giving effect to the CAM Exchange.
(b)    If, for any reason, the Loans to be Converted or the L/C Obligations to be Converted, as the case may be, may not be converted into U.S. Dollars in the manner contemplated by paragraph (a) of this Section 8.6, (i) Administrative Agent shall determine the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the Loans to be Converted or the L/C Obligations to be Converted, as the case may be (calculated on the basis of the exchange rate as of the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such conversion would otherwise occur pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 8.6) and such determination shall be utilized to determine the CAM Percentage of each Lender and the participations to be exchanged.
(c)    As a result of the CAM Exchange, upon and after the CAM Exchange Date, each payment received by Administrative Agent pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of the Obligations, and each distribution made by Administrative Agent pursuant to any Collateral Document in respect of the 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 an Obligation shall be paid over to Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders in accordance herewith.
		
	SECTION 9.
	ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT    .


Section 9.1.    Appointment and Authority    .  Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers hereby irrevocably appoints BMO Harris Bank N.A. to act on its behalf as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The provisions of this Section 9 are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, and no Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third‐party beneficiary of any of such provisions.  It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law.  Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.
Section 9.2.    Rights as a Lender    .  The Person serving as Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity.  Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
Section 9.3.    Action by Administrative Agent; Exculpatory Provisions;     . (a) Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent and its Related Parties:
(i)    shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
(ii)    shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law.  Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder or under any other Loan Document unless it first receives any further assurances of its indemnification from the Lenders that it may require, including prepayment of any related expenses and any other protection it requires against any and all costs, expense, and liability which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action; and
(iii)    shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty or responsibility to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
(b)    Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by Administrative Agent under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby  (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 8.2, 8.3, 8.4, 8.5 and 11.3), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment.  Any such action taken or failure to act pursuant to the foregoing shall be binding on all Lenders.  Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to Administrative Agent in writing by a Borrower, a Lender, or the L/C Issuer.
(c)    Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be responsible for or have any duty or obligation to any Lender or L/C Issuer or participant or any other Person to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Collateral Documents, (v) the value or sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 4.1 or 4.2 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to Administrative Agent.
Section 9.4.    Reliance by Administrative Agent    .  Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, communication, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall be fully protected in relying and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.  In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an L/C Issuer, Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or L/C Issuer unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit.  Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Loan Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
Section 9.5.    Delegation of Duties    .  Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub‐agents appointed by Administrative Agent.  Administrative Agent and any such sub‐agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of this Section shall apply to any such sub‐agent and to the Related Parties of Administrative Agent and any such sub‐agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Facilities as well as activities as Administrative Agent.  Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub‐agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub‐agents.
Section 9.6.    Resignation of Administrative Agent    .  (a) Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and Borrowers.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with Borrowers, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States of America, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States of America.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above.  Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.
(b)    With effect from the Resignation Effective Date, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (ii) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and L/C Issuer directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above.  If on the Resignation Effective Date no successor has been appointed and accepted such appointment, Administrative Agent’s rights in the Collateral Documents shall be assigned without representation, recourse or warranty to the Lenders and L/C Issuer as their interests may appear.  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring Administrative Agent), and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.  The fees payable by any Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between such Borrower and such successor.  After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 9 and Section 11.4 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub‐agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.
Section 9.7.    Non‐Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders    .  Each Lender and L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender and L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
Upon a Lender’s written request, Administrative Agent agrees to forward to such Lender, when complete, copies of any field audit, examination, or appraisal report prepared by or for Administrative Agent with respect to any Borrower or any Loan Party or the Collateral (herein, “Reports”).  Each Lender hereby agrees that (a) it has requested a copy of each Report prepared by or on behalf of Administrative Agent; (b) Administrative Agent (i) makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the completeness or accuracy of any Report or any of the information contained therein or any inaccuracy or omission contained in or relating to a Report and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report; (c) the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, and that any Person performing any field examination will inspect only specific information regarding Borrowers and the other Loan Parties and will rely significantly upon the books and records of Borrowers and the other Loan Parties, as well as on representations of personnel of Borrowers and the other Loan Parties, and that Administrative Agent undertakes no obligation to update, correct or supplement the Reports; (d) it will keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use, not share the Report with any other Person except as otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement; and (e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, it will pay and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold Administrative Agent and any such other Person preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including reasonable attorney fees) incurred by as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender.
Section 9.8.    L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender.      The relevant L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the Swing Line Lender shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to the Swing Loans made hereunder.  Each L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender shall each have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to Administrative Agent in this Section 9 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the Applications pertaining to such Letters of Credit or by the Swing Line Lender in connection with Swing Loans made or to be made hereunder as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent”, as used in this Section 9, included such L/C Issuer and the Swingline Lender with respect to such acts or omissions and (ii) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to such L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as applicable.  Any resignation by the Person then acting as Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.6 shall also constitute its resignation or the resignation of its Affiliate as L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender except as it may otherwise agree.  If such Person then acting as L/C Issuer so resigns, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of a L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto, including the right to require the Lenders to make Loans or fund risk participations in Reimbursement Obligations pursuant to Section 2.3.  If such Person then acting as Swing Line Lender resigns, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Loans pursuant to Section 2.7.  Upon the appointment by Borrowers of a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder (which successor shall in all cases be a Lender other than a Defaulting Lender), (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as applicable (other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts that remain owing to the retiring L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender), and (ii) the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents other than with respect to its outstanding Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans, and (iii) upon the request of the resigning L/C Issuer, the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the resigning L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the resigning L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit.
Section 9.9.    Hedging Liability and Bank Product Obligations    .  By virtue of a Lender’s execution of this Agreement or an assignment agreement pursuant to Section 11.2, as the case may be, any Affiliate of such Lender with whom any Borrower or any other Loan Party has entered into an agreement creating Hedging Liability or Bank Product Obligations shall be deemed a Lender party hereto for purposes of any reference in a Loan Document to the parties for whom Administrative Agent is acting, it being understood and agreed that the rights and benefits of such Affiliate under the Loan Documents consist exclusively of such Affiliate’s right to share in payments and collections out of the Collateral and the Guaranty Agreements as more fully set forth in Section 8.5.  In connection with any such distribution of payments and collections, or any request for the release of the Guaranty Agreements and Administrative Agent’s Liens in connection with the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume no amounts are due to any Lender or its Affiliate with respect to Hedging Liability or Bank Product Obligations unless such Lender has notified Administrative Agent in writing of the amount of any such liability owed to it or its Affiliate prior to such distribution or payment or release of Guaranty Agreements and Liens.
Section 9.10.    Designation of Additional Agents    .  Administrative Agent shall have the continuing right, for purposes hereof, at any time and from time to time to designate one or more of the Lenders (and/or its or their Affiliates) as “syndication agents,” “documentation agents,” “book runners,” “lead arrangers,” “arrangers,” or other designations for purposes hereto, but such designation shall have no substantive effect, and such Lenders and their Affiliates shall have no additional powers, duties or responsibilities as a result thereof.
Section 9.11.    Authorization to Enter into, and Enforcement of, the Collateral Documents; Possession of Collateral    .  Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer to execute and deliver the Collateral Documents on behalf of each of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer, and their Affiliates and to take such action and exercise such powers under the Collateral Documents as Administrative Agent considers appropriate; provided Administrative Agent shall not amend the Collateral Documents unless such amendment is agreed to in writing by the Required Lenders.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall take such action to enforce its Lien on the Collateral and to preserve and protect the Collateral as may be directed by the Required Lenders.  Unless and until the Required Lenders give such direction, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take or refrain from taking such actions as it deems appropriate and in the best interest of all the Lenders and L/C Issuer.  Each Lender and L/C Issuer acknowledges and agrees that it will be bound by the terms and conditions of the Collateral Documents upon the execution and delivery thereof by Administrative Agent.  Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer or their Affiliates for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.  The Lenders and L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably authorize (and each of their Affiliates holding any Bank Product Obligations and Hedging Liability entitled to the benefits of the Collateral shall be deemed to authorize) Administrative Agent, based upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid and purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale thereof conducted by Administrative Agent (or any security trustee therefore) under the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code or PPSA, including pursuant to Sections 9‐610 or 9‐620 of the Uniform Commercial Code, at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code, including Section 363 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, or at any sale or foreclosure conducted by Administrative Agent or any security trustee therefore (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with applicable Law.  Except as otherwise specifically provided for herein, no Lender, L/C Issuer, or their Affiliates, other than Administrative Agent, shall have the right to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at Law for the foreclosure or other realization upon any Collateral or for the execution of any trust or power in respect of the Collateral or for the appointment of a receiver or for the enforcement of any other remedy under the Collateral Documents; it being understood and intended that no one or more of the Lenders or L/C Issuer or their Affiliates shall have any right in any manner whatsoever to affect, disturb or prejudice the Lien of Administrative Agent (or any security trustee therefor) under the Collateral Documents by its or their action or to enforce any right thereunder, and that all proceedings at Law or in equity shall be instituted, had, and maintained by Administrative Agent (or its security trustee) in the manner provided for in the relevant Collateral Documents for the benefit of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer, and their Affiliates.  Each Lender and L/C Issuer is hereby appointed agent for the purpose of perfecting Administrative Agent’s security interest in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable Law can be perfected only by possession.  Should any Lender or L/C Issuer (other than Administrative Agent) obtain possession of any Collateral, such Lender or L/C Issuer shall notify Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to Administrative Agent or in accordance with Administrative Agent’s instructions.  
Section 9.12.    Authorization to Release, Limit or Subordinate Liens or to Release Guaranties    .  Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer, and their Affiliates to (a) release any Lien covering any Collateral that is sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the relevant Collateral Documents (including a sale, transfer, or disposition permitted by the terms of Section 7.4 or which has otherwise been consented to in accordance with Section 11.3), (b) release or subordinate any Lien on Collateral consisting of goods financed with purchase money indebtedness or under a Capital Lease to the extent such purchase money indebtedness or Capitalized Lease Obligation, and the Lien securing the same, are permitted by Sections 7.1(b) and 7.2(d), (c) reduce or limit the amount of the indebtedness secured by any particular item of Collateral to an amount not less than the estimated value thereof to the extent necessary to reduce mortgage registry, filing and similar tax, (d) release Liens on the Collateral following termination or expiration of the Commitments and payment in full in cash of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit that have been Cash Collateralized to the satisfaction of Administrative Agent and relevant L/C Issuer) and, if then due, Hedging Liability and Bank Product Obligations, and (e) release any Subsidiary from its obligations as a Guarantor if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted under the Loan Documents.  Upon Administrative Agent’s request, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of Property or to release any Person form its obligations as a Guarantor under the Loan Documents.
Section 9.13.    Authorization of Administrative Agent to File Proofs of Claim      In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(a)    to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of Lenders, the L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents including, but not limited to, Sections 2.12, 3.4, 3.5, and 11.4) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(b)    to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and L/C Issuer to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent under Sections 2.12 and 11.4.  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or L/C Issuer or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or L/C Issuer in any such proceeding.

(a) To induce the Lenders and L/C Issuer to provide the credits described herein and in consideration of benefits expected to accrue to Borrowers by reason of the Commitments and for other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, each Domestic Subsidiary party hereto (including any Domestic Subsidiary executing an Additional Guarantor Supplement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G or such other form acceptable to Administrative Agent) and U.S. Borrower (as to the Secured Obligations of another Loan Party) hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees jointly and severally the due and punctual payment of all present and future Secured Obligations (including the Secured Obligations of the Canadian Loan Parties in addition to the Secured Obligations of the U.S. Loan Parties), including, but not limited to, the due and punctual payment of principal of and interest on the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations, and the due and punctual payment of all other Obligations now or hereafter owed by any Borrower under the Loan Documents and the due and punctual payment of all Hedging Liability and Bank Product Obligations, in each case as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise, according to the terms hereof and thereof (including all interest, costs, fees, and charges after the entry of an order for relief against any Borrower or such other obligor in a case under the United States Bankruptcy Code or Canadian Insolvency Legislation or any similar proceeding, whether or not such interest, costs, fees and charges would be an allowed claim against such Borrower or any such obligor in any such proceeding); provided, however, that, with respect to any Guarantor, Hedging Liability guaranteed by such Guarantor shall exclude all Excluded Swap Obligations.  In case of failure by a Borrower or other obligor punctually to pay any Secured Obligations guaranteed hereby, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally agrees to make such payment or to cause such payment to be made punctually as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the relevant Borrower or such obligor.
     (b)    Each Canadian Loan Party shall guarantee the Secured Obligations of the other Canadian Loan Parties pursuant to the Canadian Guarantee Agreement.
Section 10.2.    Guarantee Unconditional    .  The obligations of each Guarantor under this Section 10 shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged, or otherwise affected by:
(a)    any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver, or release in respect of any obligation of any Loan Party or other obligor or of any other guarantor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or by operation of Law or otherwise;
(b)    any modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement relating to Hedging Liability or Bank Product Obligations;
(c)    any change in the corporate existence, structure, or ownership of, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, or other similar proceeding affecting, any Loan Party or other obligor, any other guarantor, or any of their respective assets, or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Loan Party or other obligor or of any other guarantor contained in any Loan Document; 
(d)    the existence of any claim, set‐off, or other rights which any Loan Party or other obligor or any other guarantor may have at any time against Administrative Agent, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether or not arising in connection herewith;
(e)    any failure to assert, or any assertion of, any claim or demand or any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any rights or remedies against any Loan Party or other obligor, any other guarantor, or any other Person or Property;
(f)    any application of any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any obligation of any Loan Party or other obligor, regardless of what obligations of any Loan Party or other obligor remain unpaid;
(g)    any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any Loan Party or other obligor or any other guarantor for any reason of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document or any agreement relating to Hedging Liability or Bank Product Obligations or any provision of applicable Law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by any Loan Party or other obligor or any other guarantor of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligation or any other amount payable under the Loan Documents or any agreement relating to Hedging Liability or Bank Product Obligations; or
(h)    any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by Administrative Agent, any Lender, the L/C Issuer, or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this subsection, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the obligations of any Guarantor under this Section 10.
Section 10.3.    Discharge Only upon Payment in Full; Reinstatement in Certain Circumstances    .  Each Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 10 shall remain in full force and effect until the Commitments are terminated, all Letters of Credit have expired, and the principal of and interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable by Borrowers and the other Loan Parties under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents and, if then outstanding and unpaid, all Hedging Liability and Bank Product Obligations shall have been paid in full.  If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligation or any other amount payable by any Loan Party or other obligor or any guarantor under the Loan Documents or any agreement relating to Hedging Liability or Bank Product Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of such Loan Party or other obligor or of any guarantor, or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 10 with respect to such payment shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had become due but had not been made at such time.
Section 10.4.    Subrogation    .  Each Guarantor agrees it will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of subrogation by any payment made hereunder, or otherwise, until all the Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full subsequent to the termination of all the Commitments and expiration of all Letters of Credit.  If any amount shall be paid to a Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time prior to the later of (x) the payment in full of the Secured Obligations and all other amounts payable by the Loan Parties hereunder and the other Loan Documents and (y) the termination of the Commitments and expiration of all Letters of Credit, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the L/C Issuer (and their Affiliates) and shall forthwith be paid to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and L/C Issuer (and their Affiliates) or be credited and applied upon the Secured Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Section 10.5.    Subordination    .   Each Guarantor (each referred to herein as a “Subordinated Creditor”) hereby subordinates the payment of all indebtedness, obligations, and liabilities of Borrower or other Loan Party owing to such Subordinated Creditor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Secured Obligations.  During the existence of any Event of Default, subject to Section 10.4, any such indebtedness, obligation, or liability of Borrower or other Loan Party owing to such Subordinated Creditor shall be enforced and performance received by such Subordinated Creditor as trustee for the benefit of the holders of the Secured Obligations and the proceeds thereof shall be paid over to Administrative Agent for application to the Secured Obligations (whether or not then due), but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under this Section 10.
Section 10.6.    Waivers    .  Each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest, and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by Administrative Agent, any Lender, the L/C Issuer, or any other Person against any Borrower or any other Loan Party or other obligor, another guarantor, or any other Person.
Section 10.7.    Limit on Recovery    .  Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the right of recovery against each Guarantor under this Section 10 shall not exceed $1.00 less than the lowest amount which would render such Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 10 void or voidable under applicable Law, including, without limitation, fraudulent conveyance law.
Section 10.8.    Stay of Acceleration    .  If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by any Borrower or other Loan Party or other obligor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or under any agreement relating to Hedging Liability or Bank Product Obligations, is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Borrower or such other Loan Party or obligor, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or under any agreement relating to Hedging Liability or Bank Product Obligations, shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by Administrative Agent made at the request or otherwise with the consent of the Required Lenders.
Section 10.9.    Benefit to Guarantors    .  The Loan Parties are engaged in related businesses and integrated to such an extent that the financial strength and flexibility of Borrower and the other Loan Parties has a direct impact on the success of each other Loan Party.  Each Guarantor will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the extensions of credit hereunder, and each Guarantor acknowledges that this guarantee is necessary or convenient to the conduct, promotion and attainment of its business.
Section 10.10.    Keepwell    .  Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section, or otherwise under this Guaranty, voidable under applicable Law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount).  The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until discharged in accordance with Section 10.3.  Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Section 11.2.    Successors and Assigns.  
(a)    Successors and Assigns Generally.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (e) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b)    Assignments by Lenders.  Any Lender may at any time 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); provided that (in each case with respect to any Credit) any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(i)    Minimum Amounts.  (A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it (in each case with respect to any Credit) or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B)    in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the relevant Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than U.S. $5,000,000 in the case of any assignment in respect of the U.S. Revolving Credit, U.S. $1,000,000 in the case of any assignment in respect of the Canadian Revolving Credit, or U.S. $1,000,000 in the case of any assignment in respect of any Term Loan, unless each of Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the relevant Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
(ii)    Proportionate Amounts.  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 with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Credits on a non‐pro rata basis.
(iii)    Required Consents.  No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:
(A)    the consent of Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that Borrowers shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof;
(B)    the consent of Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of (i) the U.S. Revolving Credit or the Canadian Revolving Credit if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Commitment in respect of such Credit, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender, or (ii) any Term Loans to a Person who is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and
(C)    the consent of each U.S. L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender shall be required for any assignment in respect of the U.S. Revolving Credit, and the consent of each Canadian L/C Issuer shall be required for any assignment in respect of the Canadian Revolving Credit.
(iv)    Assignment and Assumption.  The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment.  The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
(v)    No Assignment to Certain Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to (A) any Borrower or any other Loan Party or any Loan Party’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).
(vi)    No Assignment to Natural Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to a natural Person.
(vii)    Certain Additional Payments.  In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the relevant Borrower and Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans in accordance with its Percentage.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, 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 Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption 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 11.4 and 11.6 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph 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 (d) of this Section.
(c)    Register.  Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in Chicago, Illinois a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrowers, Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall 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.  The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(d)    Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or any Borrower or any other Loan Party or any Loan Party’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) Borrowers, Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 11.4(c) with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).
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; 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 Section 11.3 that expressly relate to amendments requiring the unanimous consent of the Lenders in the Facility in which such Participant participates.  Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.4, and 3.5 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.1(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.1(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.18 and 3.7 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.1 or 3.4, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.  Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the relevant Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.18 with respect to any Participant.  To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.6 (Right of Setoff) as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 11.7 (Sharing of Payments by Lenders) as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the relevant Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103‐1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(e)    Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.  
Section 11.3.    Amendments.      Any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by (a) Borrowers, (b) the Required Lenders, and (c) if the rights or duties of Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, or the Swing Line Lender are affected thereby, Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable; provided that:  
(i)    no amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 11.3 shall (A) increase any Commitment of any Lender without the consent of such Lender or (B) reduce the amount of or postpone the date for any scheduled payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan or of any Reimbursement Obligation or of any fee payable hereunder without the consent of the Lender to which such payment is owing or which has committed to make such Loan or Letter of Credit (or participate therein) hereunder; provided, however, that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary (i) to amend the default rate provided in Section 2.10 or to waive any obligation of any Borrower to pay interest or fees at the default rate as set forth therein or (ii) to amend any financial covenant hereunder (or any defined term used therein) even if the effect of such amendment would be to reduce the rate of interest or any fee payable hereunder; 
(ii)    no amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 11.3 shall, unless signed by each Lender, change the definition of Required Lenders, change the provisions of this Section 11.3, change Section 11.3 in a manner that would affect the ratable sharing of setoffs required thereby, change the application of payments contained in Section 2.13 or 8.5, release any material Guarantor or all or substantially all of the Collateral (except as otherwise provided for in the Loan Documents), or affect the number of Lenders required to take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document;
(iii)    no amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 11.3 shall, unless signed by each Lender affected thereby, extend the Termination Date, or extend the stated expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond the Termination Date; and 
(iv)    no amendment to Section 10 or the Canadian Guarantee Agreement shall be made without the consent of the Guarantor(s) affected thereby.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (1) no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender, (2) if Administrative Agent and Borrowers have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then Administrative Agent and Borrowers shall be permitted to amend such provision, and (3) guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents executed by any Borrower or any other Loan Party in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by Administrative Agent and may be amended, supplemented or waived without the consent of any Lender if such amendment, supplement or waiver is delivered in order to (x) comply with local Law or advice of local counsel, (y) cure ambiguities, omissions, mistakes or defects or (z) cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(b)    Indemnification by the Loan Parties.  Each Loan Party shall indemnify Administrative Agent (and any sub‐agent thereof), each Lender and each L/C Issuer, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from all fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including any third party or any Borrower or any other Loan Party) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of Administrative Agent (and any sub‐agent thereof), any Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer, and their Related Parties, the administration and enforcement of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all such costs and expenses incurred in connection with any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code or Canadian Insolvency Law involving any Borrower or any other Loan Party as a debtor thereunder), (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any Environmental Claim or Environmental Liability, including with respect to the actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, related in any way to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Borrower or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (including, without limitation, any settlement arrangement arising from or relating to the foregoing); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by any Borrower or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if such Borrower or such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.  This subsection (b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non‐Tax claim.
(c)    Reimbursement by Lenders.  To the extent that (i) the Loan Parties for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by any of them to Administrative Agent (or any sub‐agent thereof), any L/C Issuer, any Swing Line Lender or any Related Party or (ii) any liabilities, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever are imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, any Swing Line Lender or a Related Party in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, any Swing Line Lender or a Related Party in connection therewith, then, in each case, each Lender severally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent (or any such sub‐agent), such L/C Issuer, such Swing Line Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based on each Lender’s Percentage share of the aggregate Credits at such time) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender); provided that with respect to such unpaid amounts owed to any L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender solely in its capacity as such, only the Lenders party to the relevant Revolving Credit shall be required to pay such unpaid amounts, such payment to be made severally among them based on such Lenders’ pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based on each such Lender’s Percentage share of the relevant Revolving Credit at such time); and provided, further, that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent (or any such sub‐agent), such L/C Issuer or such Swing Line Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for Administrative Agent (or any such sub‐agent), such L/C Issuer or any such Swing Line Lender in connection with such capacity.  The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 11.15.
(d)    Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc.

No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.
(e)    Payments.  All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 10 days after demand therefor.
(f)    Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section shall survive the termination of the Loan Documents and payment of the obligations hereunder.

No delay or failure on the part of Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, or any Lender, or on the part of the holder or holders of any of the Obligations, in the exercise of any power or right under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof or as an acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right.  The rights and remedies hereunder of Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, the Lenders, and of the holder or holders of any of the Obligations are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies which any of them would otherwise have.
Section 11.6.    Right of Setoff    .  In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under the Loan Documents or applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each L/C Issuer, and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Lender, such L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or such L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, L/C Issuer or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Borrower or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender or such L/C Issuer different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.19 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.  The rights of each Lender, each L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have.  Each Lender and L/C Issuer agrees to notify Borrowers and Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. 
Section 11.7.    Sharing of Payments by Lenders.      If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them; provided that:
(a)    if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and
(b)    the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in L/C Obligations to any assignee or participant, other than to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).
Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Loan Party in the amount of such participation.
Section 11.8.    Survival of Representations.      All representations and warranties made herein or in any other Loan Document or in certificates given pursuant hereto or thereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall continue in full force and effect with respect to the date as of which they were made as long as any credit is in use or available hereunder.
Section 11.9.    Survival of Indemnities.      All indemnities and other provisions relative to reimbursement to the Lenders and L/C Issuer of amounts sufficient to protect the yield of the Lenders and L/C Issuer with respect to the Loans and Letters of Credit, including, but not limited to, Sections 3.1, 3.4, 3.5, and 11.4, shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment of the Obligations.
Section 11.10.    Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.     
(a)    Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to Administrative Agent, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.  Except as provided in Section 4.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Administrative Agent and when Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic (e.g., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.  For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 4.1, each Lender and L/C Issuer that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender or L/C Issuer unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender or L/C Issuer prior to the Closing Date specifying its objection thereto.
(b)    Electronic Execution of Assignments.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper‐based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the Illinois State Electronic Commerce Security Act, or any other similar state Laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 
Section 11.11.    Headings.     Section headings used in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.
Section 11.12.    Severability of Provisions.      Any provision of any Loan Document which is unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.  All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable mandatory provisions of Law, and all the provisions of this Agreement and other Loan Documents are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of Law which may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Agreement or the other Loan Documents invalid or unenforceable.
Section 11.13.    Construction    .  The parties acknowledge and agree that the Loan Documents shall not be construed more favorably in favor of any party hereto based upon which party drafted the same, it being acknowledged that all parties hereto contributed substantially to the negotiation of the Loan Documents.  The provisions of this Agreement relating to Subsidiaries of a Loan Party shall only apply during such times as such Loan Party has one or more Subsidiaries.  NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL BE DEEMED OR CONSTRUED TO PERMIT ANY ACT OR OMISSION WHICH IS PROHIBITED BY THE TERMS OF ANY COLLATERAL DOCUMENT, THE COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS CONTAINED HEREIN BEING IN ADDITION TO AND NOT IN SUBSTITUTION FOR THE COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS CONTAINED IN THE COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS.
Section 11.14.    Excess Interest    .  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, no such provision shall require the payment or permit the collection of any amount of interest (including all amounts comprising “interest” as defined in the Criminal Code (Canada)) in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable Law (including, the “criminal rate” as defined in the Criminal Code (Canada)) to be charged for the use or detention, or the forbearance in the collection, of all or any portion of the Loans or other obligations outstanding under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (“Excess Interest”).  If any Excess Interest is provided for, or is adjudicated to be provided for, herein or in any other Loan Document, then in such event (a) the provisions of this Section shall govern and control, (b) no Borrower nor any guarantor or endorser shall be obligated to pay any Excess Interest, (c) any Excess Interest that Administrative Agent or any Lender may have received hereunder shall, at the option of Administrative Agent, be (i) applied as a credit against the then outstanding principal amount of Obligations hereunder and accrued and unpaid interest thereon (not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable Law), (ii) refunded to the relevant Borrower, or (iii) any combination of the foregoing, (d) the interest rate payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be automatically subject to reduction to the maximum lawful contract rate allowed under applicable usury Laws (the “Maximum Rate”), and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been, and shall be, reformed and modified to reflect such reduction in the relevant interest rate, and (e) no Borrower nor any guarantor or endorser shall have any action against Administrative Agent or any Lender for any damages whatsoever arising out of the payment or collection of any Excess Interest.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if for any period of time interest on any of a Borrower’s Obligations is calculated at the Maximum Rate rather than the applicable rate under this Agreement, and thereafter such applicable rate becomes less than the Maximum Rate, the rate of interest payable on such Borrower’s Obligations shall remain at the Maximum Rate until the Lenders have received the amount of interest which such Lenders would have received during such period on such Borrower’s Obligations had the rate of interest not been limited to the Maximum Rate during such period. 
Section 11.15.    Lender’s and L/C Issuer’s Obligations Several    .  The obligations of the Lenders and L/C Issuer hereunder are several and not joint.  Nothing contained in this Agreement and no action taken by the Lenders or L/C Issuer pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders and L/C Issuer a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity.
