for in this Agreement; and an Event of Default shall "continue" or be "continuing" until such Event of Default
has been waived in writing by the Required Lenders or by each Lender affected thereby, or by all Lenders, as applicable. Any Lien
referred to in this Agreement or any other Loan Document as having been created in favor of any Agent (or any subagent or designee

condition exists. Unless otherwise provided, all financial calculations shall be performed with Inventory valued on a first-in,
first-out basis. In addition, all representations and warranties hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular
representation or warranty proves to be incorrect or is breached, the fact that another representation or warranty concerning the

or warranty hereunder.

    	- 64 -



    


    

 


(ii)              
The aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans made on the Effective Date pursuant to this Agreement shall not

(iii)            
The aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding at any time to the Borrowers shall not exceed the Total Commitment.


 


Section 2.02       
Making the Loans. (a) The Borrowing Agent shall give the Administrative Agent prior telephonic notice (immediately
confirmed in writing, in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto (a "Notice of Borrowing")), not later
than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the date which is 3 Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Loan (or such
shorter period as the Administrative Agent is willing, in its sole discretion, to accommodate from time to time, but in no event
later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the borrowing date of the proposed Loan), it being understood and agreed that with
respect to the Term Loan to be funded on the Effective Date, the Borrowing Agent shall be permitted to deliver, and the Administrative
Agent shall accept, a Notice of Borrowing dated one (1) Business Day prior to the Effective Date. Such Notice of Borrowing shall
be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the principal amount and type of the proposed Loan, (ii) in the case of Loans requested
on the Effective Date, whether such Loan is requested to be a Revolving Loan or the Term Loan, (iii) whether the Loan is requested
to be a Reference Rate Loan or a LIBOR Rate Loan and, in the case of a LIBOR Rate Loan, the initial Interest Period with respect
thereto, (iv) the use of the proceeds of such proposed Loan and (v) the proposed borrowing date, which must be a Business
Day, and, with respect to the Term Loans, must be the Effective Date. If no election as to the type of Loan is specified, then
the requested Loan shall be a Reference Rate Loan. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested LIBOR Rate
Loan, then the Borrowing Agent shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration. Each Loan shall be
made in Dollars. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may act without liability upon the basis of written, telecopied or telephonic
notice believed by the Administrative Agent in good faith to be from the Borrowing Agent (or from any Authorized Officer thereof
designated in writing purportedly from the Borrowing Agent to the Administrative Agent). The Borrowers hereby waive the right to
dispute the Administrative Agent's record of the terms of any such telephonic Notice of Borrowing. The Administrative Agent and
each Lender shall be entitled to rely conclusively on the authority of any Authorized Officer of the Borrowing Agent to request
a Loan on behalf of the Borrowers until the Administrative Agent receives written notice to the contrary. The Administrative Agent
and the Lenders shall have no duty to verify the authenticity of the signature appearing on any written Notice of Borrowing.


 


(b)              
Each Notice of Borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.02 shall be irrevocable and the Borrowers shall be bound to make
a borrowing in accordance therewith. Each Revolving Loan shall be made in a minimum amount of $500,000 and shall be in an integral
multiple of $250,000.


 






    	- 65 -



    


    

 


(c)               
(i)Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.02(c), all Loans under this Agreement shall be made by the
Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their Pro Rata Shares of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment and the Total Term
Loan Commitment, as the case may be, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender
in that other Lender's obligations to make a Loan requested hereunder, nor shall the Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased
as a result of the default by any other Lender in that other Lender's obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder, and each Lender
shall be obligated to make the Loans required to be made by it by the terms of this Agreement regardless of the failure by any
other Lender.


 


(ii)              
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, and in order to reduce the number of fund transfers among
the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lenders, the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lenders agree that the Administrative Agent may (but
shall not be obligated to), and the Borrowers and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to, fund, on
behalf of the Revolving Loan Lenders, Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.01, subject to the procedures for settlement set forth
in Section 2.02(d); provided, however, that (A) the Administrative Agent shall in no event fund any such Revolving
Loans if the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders on the Business
Day prior to the date of the proposed Revolving Loan that one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Section 5.02 will
not be satisfied at the time of the proposed Revolving Loan (so long as such written notice has been received in sufficient time
to permit the Administrative Agent to avoid completing such funding), and (B) the Administrative Agent shall not otherwise
be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent in Section 5.02 have been satisfied. If the Borrowing
Agent gives a Notice of Borrowing requesting a Revolving Loan and the Administrative Agent elects not to fund such Revolving Loan
on behalf of the Revolving Loan Lenders, then promptly after receipt of the Notice of Borrowing requesting such Revolving Loan,
the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Loan Lender of the specifics of the requested Revolving Loan and that it will
not fund the requested Revolving Loan on behalf of the Revolving Loan Lenders. If the Administrative Agent notifies the Revolving
Loan Lenders that it will not fund a requested Revolving Loan on behalf of the Revolving Loan Lenders, each Revolving Loan Lender
shall make its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, in the
Administrative Agent's Account no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) (provided that the Administrative Agent requests
payment from such Revolving Loan Lender not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time)) on the date of the proposed Revolving
Loan. The Administrative Agent will make the proceeds of such Revolving Loans available to the Borrowers on the day of the proposed
Revolving Loan by causing an amount, in immediately available funds, equal to the proceeds of all such Revolving Loans received
by the Administrative Agent in the Administrative Agent's Account or the amount funded by the Administrative Agent on behalf of
the Revolving Loan Lenders to be deposited in an account designated by the Borrowing Agent.


 






    	- 66 -



    


    

 


(iii)            
If the Administrative Agent has notified the Revolving Loan Lenders that the Administrative Agent, on behalf of such
Revolving Loan Lenders, will not fund a particular Revolving Loan pursuant to Section 2.02(c)(ii), the Administrative Agent may
assume that each such Revolving Loan Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such day and the Administrative
Agent, in its sole discretion, may, but shall not be obligated to, cause a corresponding amount to be made available to the Borrowers
on such day. If the Administrative Agent makes such corresponding amount available to the Borrowers and such corresponding amount
is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by any such Revolving Loan Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Revolving Loan Lender together with interest thereon, for each
day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective
Rate for 3 Business Days and thereafter at the Reference Rate. During the period in which such Revolving Loan Lender has not paid
such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or
any other Loan Document, the amount so advanced by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers shall, for all purposes hereof, be
a Revolving Loan made by the Administrative Agent for its own account. Upon any such failure by a Revolving Loan Lender to pay
the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Borrowing Agent of such failure and the
Borrowers shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent for its own account.


 


(iv)            
Nothing in this Section 2.02(c) shall be deemed to relieve any Revolving Loan Lender from its obligations to fulfill
its Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers may have against
any Revolving Loan Lender as a result of any default by such Revolving Loan Lender hereunder.


 


(d)              
(i)With respect to all periods for which the Administrative Agent has funded Revolving Loans pursuant to Section
2.02(c), on Friday of each week, or if the applicable Friday is not a Business Day, then on the following Business Day, or such
shorter period as the Administrative Agent may from time to time select (any such week or shorter period being herein called a
"Settlement Period"), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Loan Lender of the unpaid principal
amount of the Revolving Loans outstanding as of the last day of each such Settlement Period. In the event that such amount is greater
than the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loans outstanding on the last day of the Settlement Period immediately preceding
such Settlement Period (or, if there has been no preceding Settlement Period, the amount of the Revolving Loans made on the date
of such Revolving Loan Lender's initial funding), each Revolving Loan Lender shall promptly (and in any event not later than 2:00 p.m.
(New York City time) if the Administrative Agent requests payment from such Lender not later than 12:00 noon (New York City
time) on such day) make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment of the
difference in immediately available funds. In the event that such amount is less than the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving
Loans outstanding on the last day of the Settlement Period immediately preceding such Settlement Period, the Administrative Agent
shall promptly pay over to each Revolving Loan Lender its Pro Rata Share of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment of the difference
in immediately available funds. In addition, if the Administrative Agent shall so request at any time when a Default or an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or any other event shall have occurred as a result of which the Administrative
Agent shall determine that it is desirable to present claims against the Borrowers for repayment, each Revolving Loan Lender shall
promptly remit to the Administrative Agent or, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to each Revolving
Loan Lender, sufficient funds to adjust the interests of the Revolving Loan Lenders in the then outstanding Revolving Loans to
such an extent that, after giving effect to such adjustment, each such Revolving Loan Lender's interest in the then outstanding
Revolving Loans will be equal to its Pro Rata Share thereof. The obligations of the Administrative Agent and each Revolving Loan
Lender under this Section 2.02(d) shall be absolute and unconditional. Each Revolving Loan Lender shall only be entitled to receive
interest on its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans which have been funded by such Revolving Loan Lender.

(ii)              
In the event that any Revolving Loan Lender fails to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section
2.02(d)(i), the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Revolving Loan
Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to the
Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for 3 Business Days and thereafter at the Reference Rate. During the
period in which such Revolving Loan Lender has not paid such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the amount so advanced by the Administrative Agent
to the Borrowers shall, for all purposes hereof, be a Revolving Loan made by the Administrative Agent for its own account. Upon
any such failure by a Revolving Loan Lender to pay the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter
notify the Borrowing Agent of such failure and the Borrowers shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative
Agent for its own account. Nothing in this Section 2.02(d)(ii) shall be deemed to relieve any Revolving Loan Lender from its obligation
to fulfill its Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers
may have against any Revolving Loan Lender as a result of any default by such Revolving Loan Lender hereunder.


 


Section 2.03       
Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The outstanding principal of all Revolving Loans shall be due and
payable on the Final Maturity Date.


 


(b)              
The Term Loan shall be repayable in consecutive quarterly installments, each of which shall be in an amount equal
to (i) during the period from and after the Effective Date up to and including the date that is the first anniversary of the Effective
Date, $400,000 per quarter, (ii) during the period from and after the first anniversary of the Effective Date up to and including
the date that is the second anniversary of the Effective Date, $600,000 per quarter and (iii) thereafter, $800,000 per quarter,
each such installment to be due and payable, in arrears, on the first day of each quarter and applied ratably to the Term Loans,
commencing on March 31, 2018, and ending on the Final Maturity Date. The remaining outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Term
Loan and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable on the earliest of (i) the termination of the Total
Revolving Credit Commitment, (ii) the date of the acceleration of the Term Loan in accordance with the terms hereof and (iii) the
Final Maturity Date.


 


(c)               
Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness
of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable
and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.


 






    	- 68 -



    


    

 


(d)              
The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder,
(ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder
and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender's
share thereof.


 


(e)               
The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.03(c) or Section 2.03(d) shall be prima facie
evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein (absent manifest error); provided that (i) the
failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect
the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (ii) in the event of any
conflict between the entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.03(c) and the accounts maintained pursuant to
Section 2.03(d), the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.03(d) shall govern and control.


 


(f)               
Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrowers shall
execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and
its registered assigns) in a form furnished by the Collateral Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrowing Agent. Thereafter,
the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section
12.07) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein and its registered assigns.

(a)               
Revolving Loans. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, at the option of the Borrowing Agent, each Revolving

on the principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding, from the date such Loan is made until repaid, at a rate per annum
equal to the Reference Rate plus the Applicable Margin. Each Revolving Loan that is a LIBOR Rate Loan shall bear interest on the
principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding, from the date such Loan is made until repaid, at a rate per annum equal
to the LIBOR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Loan plus the Applicable Margin.


 


(b)

any portion thereof shall be either a Reference Rate Loan or a LIBOR Rate Loan. Each portion of the Term Loan that is a Reference
Rate Loan shall bear interest on the principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding, from the date such Term Loan is made
until repaid, at a rate per annum equal to the Reference Rate plus the Applicable Margin. Each portion of the Term Loan that is
a LIBOR Rate Loan shall bear interest on the principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding, from the date of the Term
Loan until repaid, at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for the Term Loan (or such portion
thereof) plus the Applicable Margin.


 






    	- 69 -



    


    

 


(c)               
Default Interest. To the extent permitted by law and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section,
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and so long as written notice is provided by an Agent to
the Borrowing Agent, at the election of any Agent or the Required Lenders, the principal of, and all accrued and unpaid interest
on, all Loans, fees, indemnities or any other Obligations (in each case other than outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations) of
the Loan Parties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall bear interest, from the date such Event of Default occurred
until the date such Event of Default is waived in writing in accordance herewith, at a rate per annum equal at all times to the
Post-Default Rate. All interest and other amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be payable on demand.


 


(d)              
Interest Payment. Interest on each Loan shall be payable monthly, in arrears, on the first day of each month,
commencing on the first day of the month following the month in which such Loan is made and at maturity (whether upon demand, by
acceleration or otherwise). Interest at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable on demand. The Borrowers hereby authorize the Administrative
Agent to, and the Administrative Agent may, from time to time, charge the Loan Account pursuant to Section 4.01 with the amount
of any interest payment due hereunder.


 


(e)               
General. All interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days,
including the first day but excluding the last day, elapsed.


 


(f)               
Canadian Interest Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any
other Loan Document:


 


(i)                
whenever interest payable by any Loan Party is calculated on the basis of a period which is less than the actual
number of days in a calendar year, each rate of interest determined pursuant to such calculation is, for purposes of the Interest
Act (Canada), equivalent to such rate multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which such rate is to
be ascertained and divided by the number of days used as the basis of such calculation;


 


(ii)              
in no event shall the aggregate “interest” (as defined in Section 347 of the Criminal Code
(Canada), as the same shall be amended, replaced or re-enacted from time to time (the “Criminal Code Section”)) payable
(whether by way of payment, collection or demand) by any Canadian Loan Party to Agents or any Lender under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document exceed the effective annual rate of interest on the “credit advanced” (as defined in that section)
under this Agreement or such other Loan Document lawfully permitted under that section and, if any payment, collection or demand
pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in respect of “interest” (as defined in that section) is determined
to be contrary to the provisions of that section and the amount of such payment or collection shall be refunded by Agents and Lenders
to the Loan Parties with such “interest” deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount
or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by the Criminal Code Section to result in a receipt by Agents
or such Lender of interest at a rate not in contravention of the Criminal Code Section, such adjustment to be effected, to the
extent necessary, as follows: firstly, by reducing the amounts or rates of interest required to be paid to Agents or that Lender;
and then, by reducing any fees, charges, expenses and other amounts required to be paid to the affected Agent or Lender which would
constitute “interest”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all such adjustments, if Agents or
any Lender shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by the Criminal Code Section, then Loan Parties shall
be entitled, by notice in writing to the Agent or affected Lender, to obtain reimbursement from Agent or that Lender in an amount
equal to such excess. For the purposes of this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which Loan Parties are a party, the effective
annual rate of interest payable by Loan Parties shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and
principles over the term of the loans on the basis of annual compounding for the lawfully permitted rate of interest and, in the
event of dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Institute of Actuaries appointed by Agents for the account of Loan Parties will
be conclusive for the purpose of such determination in the absence of evidence to the contrary,


 






    	- 70 -



    


    

 


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


 


(iv)            
any provision of this Agreement that would oblige Loan Parties to pay any fine, penalty or rate of interest on any
arrears of principal or interest secured by a mortgage on real property or hypothec on immovables located in Canada that has the
effect of increasing the charge on arrears beyond the rate of interest payable on principal money not in arrears shall not apply
to Loan Parties, which shall be required to pay interest on money in arrears at the same rate of interest payable on principal
money not in arrears.


 


Section 2.05       
Reduction of Commitment; Prepayment of Loans.


 


(a)               
Reduction of Commitments.


 


(i)                
Revolving Credit Commitments. The Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall terminate on the Final Maturity
Date. The Borrowers may reduce the Total Revolving Credit Commitment to an amount (which may be zero) not less than the sum of
(A) the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Loans then outstanding, (B) the aggregate principal amount
of all Revolving Loans not yet made as to which a Notice of Borrowing has been given by the Borrowing Agent under Section 2.02,
(C) the Letter of Credit Obligations at such time and (D) the stated amount of all Letters of Credit not yet issued as to which
a request has been made and not withdrawn; provided that in no event may the Total Revolving Credit Commitment be reduced to less
than $10,000,000 unless it is reduced to zero. Each such reduction shall be (1) in an amount which is an integral multiple of $1,000,000
(or by the full amount of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment in effect immediately prior to such reduction if such amount at
that time is less than $1,000,000), (2) made by providing not less than 5 Business Days' prior written notice to the Administrative
Agent and (3) irrevocable unless such notice expressly conditions such reduction on the consummation of a transaction which is
contemplated to result in a reduction of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment, in which event, such notice may be revocable or
conditioned upon the consummation of such transaction. Once reduced, the Total Revolving Credit Commitment may not be increased.
Each such reduction of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall reduce the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Lender proportionately
in accordance with its Pro Rata Share thereof.

(ii)

shall be accompanied by the payment of (A) accrued interest to the date of such payment on the amount prepaid and (B) the
Applicable Prepayment Premium, if any, payable in connection with such prepayment of the Term Loan. Each such prepayment shall
be applied against the remaining installments of principal due on such Term Loan in the inverse order of maturity.


 


(iii)            
Termination of Agreement. The Borrowers may, upon at least 5 Business Days' prior written notice to the Agents,
terminate this Agreement by Paying in Full to the Administrative Agent, in cash, the Obligations, plus the Applicable Prepayment
Premium, if any, payable in connection with such termination of this Agreement; provided that such notice of termination
may provide that is conditioned upon the consummation of a transaction which is contemplated to result in a termination of this
Agreement, in which event, such notice may be revoked or conditioned upon the consummation of such transaction. When all Obligations
hereunder which are accrued and payable have been Paid In Full or satisfied, this Agreement and the Guarantees made herein shall
terminate with respect to all Obligations, except with respect to Obligations that expressly survive such repayment pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement.


 


(c)               
Mandatory Prepayment.


 


(i)                
The Borrowers will immediately prepay the Revolving Loans at any time when the aggregate principal amount of all
Revolving Loans plus the outstanding amount of all Letter of Credit Obligations exceeds any of the limits set forth in Section 2.01(b)(i)
to the full extent of such excess. On each day that any Revolving Loans or Letters of Credit are requested by the Borrowers, the
Borrowers shall hereby be deemed to represent and warrant to the Agents and the Lenders that the Borrowing Base calculated as set
forth in the Borrowing Base Certificate most recently delivered to the Agents equals or exceeds the aggregate principal amount
of all Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding on such day. If at any time after the Borrowers have complied
with the first sentence of this Section 2.05(c)(i), the aggregate Letter of Credit Obligations are greater than the then current
Borrowing Base, the Borrowers shall provide Cash Collateral equal to such excess to the Administrative Agent, which Cash Collateral
shall be, returned to the Borrowers, at such time as the aggregate Letter of Credit Obligations plus the aggregate principal
amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans no longer exceeds the then current Borrowing Base.

Any Applicable Prepayment Premium payable in accordance with this Section 2.06(b) shall be presumed to be equal to
the liquidated damages sustained by the Lenders as the result of the occurrence of an Applicable Prepayment Premium Trigger Event
and the Loan Parties agree that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. THE LOAN PARTIES EXPRESSLY WAIVE THE
PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING APPLICABLE PREPAYMENT
PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACCELERATION.

(iii)            
The Loan Parties expressly agree that: (A) the Applicable Prepayment Premium is reasonable and is the product of
an arm's length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Applicable Prepayment Premium
shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct
between the Lenders and the Loan Parties giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Applicable
Prepayment Premium; (D) the Loan Parties shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph;
(E) their agreement to pay the Applicable Prepayment Premium is a material inducement to Lenders to provide the Commitments and
make the Loans, and (F) the Applicable Prepayment Premium represents a good faith, reasonable estimate and calculation of the lost
profits or damages of the Agents and the Lenders and that it would be impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual
amount of damages to the Agents and the Lenders or profits lost by the Agents and the Lenders as a result of such Applicable Prepayment
Premium Trigger Event.


 


(iv)            
Nothing contained in this Section 2.06(b) shall permit any prepayment of the Loans or reduction of the Commitments
not otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.


 


(c)               
Audit and Collateral Monitoring Fees. Each Loan Party acknowledges that pursuant to Section 7.01(f),
representatives of the Agents may visit any Loan Party or conduct audits, inspections or field examinations of any Loan Party and
valuations or appraisals of any or all of the Collateral or business or enterprise valuations of the Loan Parties at any time and
from time to time during normal business hours and so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, upon reasonable
prior notice, in a manner so as to not unduly disrupt the business of such Loan Party. The Borrowers agree to pay (i) $1,300
per day per examiner plus the examiner's reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and reasonable expenses incurred in connection
with all such visits, inspections, audits, valuations, appraisals and/or examinations and (ii) the reasonable cost of any
Field Survey and Audit and any other visits, inspections, audits, valuations, appraisals and/or examinations conducted by a third
party on behalf of the Agents. The foregoing notwithstanding, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
the Borrowers shall not be obligated to reimburse the Agents or Lenders for more than two Field Survey and Audits and one inventory
appraisal in any twelve month period.


 


(d)              
Fee Letter. As and when due and payable under the terms of the Fee Letter, the Borrowers shall pay the fees
set forth in the Fee Letter.


 


(e)               
Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrowers shall pay (i) to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of
the Revolving Loan Lenders, a Letter of Credit fee (in addition to the charges, commissions, fees, and costs set forth in clause
(ii) below) which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the L/C Fee Rate in effect at such time, times the average daily
balance of the Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, for the period from and excluding the date of issuance
of same to and including the date of expiration or termination, such fees to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the
actual number of days elapsed and to be payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each quarter and on the Final Maturity
Date, and (ii) to the L/C Issuer, a fronting fee of one quarter of one percent (0.250%) per annum, times the daily balance of the
Maximum Undrawn Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, for the period from and excluding the date of issuance of same to
and including the date of expiration or termination, such fees to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number
of days elapsed and to be payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each calendar quarter and on the Final Maturity Date,
together with any and all customary administrative, issuance, amendment, payment and negotiation charges (as per the L/C Issuer's
standard fee schedule) with respect to any Letters of Credit and all fees and expenses as agreed upon by the L/C Issuer and the
Borrowers in connection with any Letter of Credit, including in connection with the opening, amendment or renewal of any such Letter
of Credit and any acceptances created thereunder and shall reimburse Administrative Agent for any and all fees and expenses, if
any, paid by the Administrative Agent to the L/C Issuer, which charges and fees shall be payable on demand or as otherwise mutually
agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowing Agent. All such charges shall be deemed earned in full on the date when
the same are due and payable hereunder and shall not be subject to rebate or pro-ration upon the termination of this Agreement
for any reason. Any such charge in effect at the time of a particular transaction shall be the charge for that transaction, notwithstanding
any subsequent change in the L/C Issuer's prevailing charges for that type of transaction (all of the foregoing fees and charges
in paragraphs collectively, the "Letter of Credit Fees"). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, the Letter of Credit Fees shall be increased by two (2.0) percentage points above the per annum rate otherwise
applicable hereunder from the date such Event of Default occurred until the date such Event of Default is cured or waived in writing
in accordance herewith. All such Letter of Credit Fees shall be deemed earned in full on the date when the same are due and payable
hereunder and shall not be subject to rebate or proration upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

Section 2.07       
LIBOR Option.


 


(a)               
In lieu of having interest charged at the rate based upon the Reference Rate, the Borrowers shall have the option
(the "LIBOR Option") to have interest on all or a portion of the Loans be charged at a rate of interest based
upon the LIBOR Rate. Each Interest Period of a LIBOR Rate Loan made to the Borrowers shall commence on the date such LIBOR Rate
Loan is made and shall end on such date as the Borrowing Agent may elect as set forth in subsection 2.02(a) above; provided
that no Interest Period shall end after the last day of the Final Maturity Date.


 


(b)              
The Borrowing Agent shall elect the initial Interest Period applicable to a LIBOR Rate Loan made to the Borrowers
by its Notice of Borrowing given to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.02(a) or by its notice of conversion given to
the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.07(c), as the case may be. The Borrowing Agent shall elect the duration of each
succeeding Interest Period by giving irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent of such duration not later than 11:00
a.m. (New York City time) on the day which is not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the last day of the then current Interest
Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan. If the Administrative Agent does not receive timely notice of the Interest Period elected
by the Borrowing Agent, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected to convert such LIBOR Rate Loan to a Reference Rate Loan,
subject to Section 2.07(c) herein below.


 






    	- 78 -



    


    

 


(c)               
The Borrowing Agent may, on the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period applicable to any outstanding
LIBOR Rate Loan made to the Borrowers, or on any Business Day with respect to Reference Rate Loans, convert any such loan into
a loan of another type (i.e., a Reference Rate Loan or a LIBOR Rate Loan) in the same aggregate principal amount, provided
that any conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan made to the Borrowers not made on the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period
applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan shall be subject to Section 2.07(e). If the Borrowers desire to convert a Loan, the Borrowing
Agent shall give the Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing by no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) (i) on the day
which is three (3) Business Days' prior to the date on which such conversion is to occur with respect to a conversion from a Reference
Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan, or (ii) on the day which is one (1) Business Day prior to the date on which such conversion is
to occur with respect to a conversion from a LIBOR Rate Loan to a Reference Rate Loan, specifying, in each case, the date of such
conversion, the Loans to be converted and if the conversion is from a Reference Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan, the duration of
the first Interest Period therefor.


 


(d)              
Subject to Section 2.05(b), the Borrowers may prepay the LIBOR Rate Loans in whole at any time or in part from time
to time, together with accrued interest on the principal being prepaid to the date of such repayment in the case of any LIBOR Rate
Loan made to the Borrowers, and the Borrowing Agent shall specify the date of prepayment of Loans which are LIBOR Rate Loans, the
Loan to which such prepayment is to be applied and the amount of such prepayment. In the event that any prepayment of a LIBOR Rate
Loan is required or permitted on a date other than the last Business Day of the then-current Interest Period with respect thereto,
the Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and Lenders therefor in accordance with Section 2.07(e) hereof.


 


(e)               
The Borrowers shall indemnify the Agents and Lenders and hold the Agents and Lenders harmless from and against any
and all losses, costs or expenses, excluding the loss of any margin above the LIBOR Rates (such losses, costs and expenses, collectively,
"Funding Losses") that the Agents and Lenders may sustain or incur as a consequence of any mandatory or voluntary
prepayment, conversion of or any default by the Borrowers in the payment of the principal of or interest on any LIBOR Rate Loan
or failure by the Borrowers to complete a borrowing of, a prepayment of or conversion of or to a LIBOR Rate Loan after notice thereof
has been given, including, but not limited to, any interest payable by the Agents or Lenders to lenders of funds obtained by it
in order to make or maintain its LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder (it being agreed that the Agents and Lenders shall be entitled to such
indemnification on such basis whether or not they have obtained such funds to make or maintain its LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder,
to be calculated in accordance with customary banking practices). A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to
the foregoing sentence submitted by any Agent or any Lender to the Borrowing Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


 


(f)               
Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any Requirement of Law, or any Change in Law, shall make it unlawful
for any Lender (for purposes of this subsection (f), the term "Lender" shall include any Lender and the office or branch
where any Lender or any corporation or bank controlling such Lender makes or maintains any LIBOR Rate Loans) to make or maintain
its LIBOR Rate Loans, the obligation of Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder shall forthwith be cancelled and the Borrowing
Agent shall, if any affected LIBOR Rate Loans are then outstanding, promptly upon request from the Administrative Agent, either
pay all such affected LIBOR Rate Loans or convert such affected LIBOR Rate Loans into loans of another type. If any such payment
or conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan is made on a day that is not the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR
Rate Loan, the Borrowers shall pay the Administrative Agent, upon the Administrative Agent's request, such amount or amounts as
may be necessary to compensate Lenders for any Funding Losses sustained or incurred by Lenders in respect of such LIBOR Rate Loan
as a result of such payment or conversion, including (but not limited to) any interest or other amounts payable by Lenders to lenders
of funds obtained by Lenders in order to make or maintain such LIBOR Rate Loan. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable
pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by any Agent or any Lender to the Borrowing Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.


 






    	- 79 -



    


    

 


(g)              
In the event that any Agent or any Lender shall have determined that:


 


(i)                
reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate applicable pursuant to Section 2.02(a) hereof
for any Interest Period; or


 


(ii)              
dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant maturity are not available in the London interbank LIBOR
market, with respect to an outstanding LIBOR Rate Loan, a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan, or a proposed conversion of a Reference Rate
Loan into a LIBOR Rate Loan, or


 


(iii)            
at any time that a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,


 


then upon notice of the same being given to the Administrative Agent,
the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrowing Agent prompt written, telephonic or facsimile notice of such determination. If
such notice is given, (i) any such requested LIBOR Rate Loan shall be made as a Reference Rate Loan, unless the Borrowing Agent
shall notify the Administrative Agent no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) two (2) Business Days prior to the date of such
proposed borrowing, that its request for such borrowing shall be cancelled or made as an unaffected type of LIBOR Rate Loan, (ii)
any Reference Rate Loan or LIBOR Rate Loan which was to have been converted to an affected type of LIBOR Rate Loan shall be continued
as or converted into a Reference Rate Loan, or, if the Borrowing Agent shall notify the Administrative Agent, no later than 11:00
a.m. (New York time) two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed conversion, shall be maintained as an unaffected type of LIBOR
Rate Loan, and (iii) any outstanding affected LIBOR Rate Loans shall be converted into a Reference Rate Loan at the end of the
applicable Interest Period. Until such notice has been withdrawn, Lenders shall have no obligation to make an affected type of
LIBOR Rate Loan or maintain outstanding affected LIBOR Rate Loans and the Borrowers shall not have the right to convert a Reference
Rate Loan or an unaffected type of LIBOR Rate Loan into an affected type of LIBOR Rate Loan.

(h)              
Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, neither any Agent nor any Lender, nor any of their participants,
is required actually to acquire eurodollar deposits to fund or otherwise match fund any Obligation as to which interest accrues
at the LIBOR Rate. The provisions of this Article II shall apply as if each Lender or its participants had match funded any Obligation
as to which interest is accruing at the LIBOR Rate by acquiring eurodollar deposits for each Interest Period in the amount of the
LIBOR Rate Loans.


 


Section 2.08       
[Reserved].


 


Section 2.09       
Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under
any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any and all 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 Loan
Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions or withholdings
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.09(a)) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum
it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.


 


(b)              
In addition, each Loan Party shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance
with applicable law (or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for any Other Taxes).


 


(c)               
Without duplication of any obligation under Section 2.09(a), the Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify
each Recipient, within 30 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 2.09) 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. If
the Borrowing Agent reasonably believes that any such Indemnified Taxes were not correctly or legally asserted, then at the Borrowing
Agent’s request the Administrative Agent and/or each affected Lender will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the applicable
Loan Party in pursuing a refund of such Indemnified Taxes so long as such efforts would not, in the sole determination exercised
in good faith of the Administrative Agent or affected Lender, result in any material additional costs, expenses or risks or be
otherwise disadvantageous to it. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowing Agent by
a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender,
shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


 


(d)              
As soon as practicable after the payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this
Section 2.09, such Loan Party or the Borrowing Agent shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a copy of a receipt,
if any, 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 the Administrative Agent.


 






    	- 81 -



    


    

 


(e)               
(1) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or a reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made
under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Administrative
Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the 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
the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Administrative
Agent as will enable the 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 2.09(e)(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.


 


(i)                
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,


 


(A)            
any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the 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 the Administrative
Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. backup withholding tax;


 


(B)             
any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the 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 the Administrative Agent), whichever of the
following is applicable:


 


(1)              
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-E 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, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an
exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "business profits" or "other income"
article of such treaty;


 


(2)              
executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;


 


(3)              
in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h)
or Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate 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 any Loan Party 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-E; or


 






    	- 82 -



    


    

 


(4)              
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-8BENE, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, 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
on behalf of each such direct or indirect partner; and


 


(C)             
any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowing Agent, for the
benefit of the Loan Parties, and the 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 the Borrowing Agent, a Loan Party or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form
prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming an 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 the Borrowing Agent, a Loan Party
or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.


 


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 the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.


 


(f)               
Any Secured Party or assignee thereof, including a holder of a participation (a "Transferee") claiming
any indemnity payment or additional payment amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall use reasonable efforts (consistent
with legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowing Agent
or to change the jurisdiction of its applicable lending office or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of
its offices, branches or affiliates, if the making of such a filing, change or assignment would avoid the need for or reduce the
amount of any such indemnity payment or additional amount that may thereafter accrue, would not require such Secured Party (or
Transferee) to disclose any information such Secured Party (or Transferee) deems confidential and would not, in the sole determination
of such Secured Party (or Transferee), be otherwise disadvantageous to such Secured Party (or Transferee).


 


(g)              
If any Secured Party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of,
or credit with respect to, any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.09 including by the payment
of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.09), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund
or credit (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.09 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 Section 2.09(g) (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 Section 2.09(g), in no event will
the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.09(g) 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 and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification
payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 2.09(g) 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.

(h)              
If a payment made to a Lender (or Transferee) or any Agent under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. withholding
tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender (or Transferee) or Agent were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements
of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender (or
Transferee) or Agent shall deliver to the Borrowing Agent and the Agents at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time
or times reasonably requested by the Borrowing Agent or the Agents such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as
prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by
the Borrowing Agent or the Agents as may be necessary for the Borrowing Agent and the Agents to comply with their obligations under
FATCA and to determine that such Lender (or Transferee) or Agent has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine
the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (h), "FATCA" shall include any
amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. Any forms, certifications or other documentation under this clause (h)
shall be delivered by each Lender (or Transferee) and each Agent.


 


(i)                
The obligations of the Parties under this Section 2.09 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment
of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder until a date that is 30 days following the survival of the statute of limitations
applicable to the relevant Tax. To the extent that the Borrowing Agent shall reasonably so request, the Administrative Agent shall
deliver copies of any tax forms received by it from any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.09.


 


Section 2.10       
Increased Costs and Reduced Return. (a) If any Secured Party shall have determined that any Change in Law
shall (i) subject such Secured Party, or any Person controlling such Secured Party to any Tax, duty or other charge with respect
to this Agreement or any Loan made by such Agent or such Lender or any Letter of Credit issued by the L/C Issuer (other than
Taxes, duties or other charges that are (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in any of clauses (b) through (d) of the definition
of Excluded Taxes or (C) Connection Income Taxes), (ii) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar
requirement against any Loan, any Letter of Credit or against assets of or held by, or deposits with or for the account of, or
credit extended by, such Secured Party or any Person controlling such Secured Party or (iii) impose on such Secured Party
or any Person controlling such Secured Party any other condition regarding this Agreement or any Loan or Letter of Credit, and
the result of any event referred to in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above shall be to increase the cost to such Secured Party of
making any Loan, issuing, guaranteeing or participating in any Letter of Credit, or agreeing to make any Loan or issue, guaranty
or participate in any Letter of Credit, or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Secured Party hereunder, then, upon
demand by such Secured Party, the Borrowers shall pay to such Secured Party such additional amounts as will compensate such Secured
Party for such increased costs or reductions in amount.


 






    	- 84 -



    


    

 


(b)              
If any Secured Party shall have determined that any Change in Law either (i) affects or would affect the amount
of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Secured Party or any Person controlling such Secured Party, and such Secured
Party determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a direct or indirect consequence of any Loans made or maintained,
Letters of Credit issued or any guaranty or participation with respect thereto, such Secured Party's or such other controlling
Person's other obligations hereunder, or (ii) has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Secured
Party's such other controlling Person's capital to a level below that which such Secured Party or such controlling Person could
have achieved but for such circumstances as a consequence of any Loans made or maintained, Letters of Credit issued, or any guaranty
or participation with respect thereto or any agreement to make Loans, to issue Letters of Credit or such Secured Party's or such
other controlling Person's other obligations hereunder (in each case, taking into consideration, such Secured Party's or such other
controlling Person's policies with respect to capital adequacy), then, upon demand by such Secured Party, the Borrowers shall pay
to such Secured Party from time to time such additional amounts as will compensate such Secured Party for such cost of maintaining
such increased capital or such reduction in the rate of return on such Secured Party's or such other controlling Person's capital.


 


(c)               
All amounts payable under this Section 2.10 shall bear interest from the date that is 10 days after the date of demand
by any Secured Party until payment in full to such Secured Party at the Reference Rate. A certificate of such Secured Party claiming
compensation under this Section 2.10, specifying the event herein above described and the nature of such event shall be submitted
by such Secured Party to the Borrowing Agent, setting forth the additional amount due and an explanation of the calculation thereof,
and such Secured Party's reasons for invoking the provisions of this Section 2.10, and shall be final and conclusive absent manifest
error.


 


(d)              
Failure or delay on the part of any Secured Party to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of
this Section 2.10 shall not constitute a waiver of such Secured Party's right to demand such compensation; provided that
the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Secured Party pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.10 for
any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Secured Party notifies the
Borrowing Agent of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Secured Party'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).

(e)               
The obligations of the Loan Parties under this Section 2.10 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the
payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.


 


Section 2.11       
Changes in Law; Impracticability or Illegality.


 


(a)               
The LIBOR Rate may be adjusted by the Administrative Agent with respect to any Lender on a prospective basis to take
into account any additional or increased costs to such Lender of maintaining or obtaining any eurodollar deposits or increased
costs due to changes in applicable law occurring subsequent to the commencement of the then applicable Interest Period and changes
in the reserve requirements imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor), excluding the Reserve
Percentage, which additional or increased costs would increase the cost of funding loans bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate. In
any such event, the affected Lender shall give the Borrowing Agent and the Administrative Agent notice of such a determination
and adjustment and the Administrative Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender and, upon its receipt of the
notice from the affected Lender, the Borrowing Agent may, by notice to such affected Lender (i) require such Lender to furnish
to the Borrowing Agent a statement setting forth the basis for adjusting such LIBOR Rate and the method for determining the amount
of such adjustment, or (ii) repay the LIBOR Rate Loans with respect to which such adjustment is made (together with any amounts
due under Section 2.09).


 


(b)              
In the event that any change in market conditions or any law, regulation, treaty, or directive, or any change therein
or in the interpretation of application thereof, shall at any time after the date hereof, in the reasonable opinion of any Lender,
make it unlawful or impractical for such Lender to fund or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans or to continue such funding or maintaining,
or to determine or charge interest rates at the LIBOR Rate, such Lender shall give notice of such changed circumstances to the
Borrowing Agent and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender
and (i) in the case of any LIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender that are outstanding, the date specified in such Lender's notice shall
be deemed to be the last day of the Interest Period of such LIBOR Rate Loans, and interest upon the LIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender
thereafter shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Reference Rate Loans of the same type hereunder, and (ii) the Borrowing
Agent shall not be entitled to elect the LIBOR Option (including in any borrowing, conversion or continuation then being requested)
until such Lender determines that it would no longer be unlawful or impractical to do so.


 


(c)               
The obligations of the Loan Parties under this Section 2.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the
payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 2.12       
Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.


 


(a)               
If any Lender requires the Borrowers to pay any additional amounts under Section 2.09 or requests compensation under
Section 2.10, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrowing Agent) 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 such Section 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. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred
by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.


 


(b)              
If any Lender (other than CBF and its Related Funds) requires the Borrowers to pay any additional amounts under Section
2.09 or requests compensation under Section 2.10 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different
lending office in accordance with clause (a) above, or if any Lender (other than CBF and its Related Funds) is a Defaulting Lender,
then the Borrowing Agent may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Agents, require such Lender to
assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by,
Section 12.07), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an assignee that
shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:


 


(i)                
the Borrowers shall have paid to the Agents any assignment fees specified in Section 12.07;


 


(ii)              
such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations
in Letters of Credit, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.08 and Section 2.09) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding
principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts);


 


(iii)            
in the case of any such assignment resulting from payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.09 or a claim
for compensation under Section 2.10, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and


 


(iv)            
such assignment does not conflict with applicable law.


 


Prior to the effective date of such assignment, the assigning Lender
shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance, subject only to the conditions set forth above. If the assigning Lender
shall refuse or fail to execute and deliver any such Assignment and Acceptance prior to the effective date of such assignment,
the assigning Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance. Any such assignment shall be
made in accordance with the terms of Section 12.07. 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 the Borrowers to require such assignment
and delegation cease to apply.

LETTERS OF CREDIT


 


Section 3.01       
Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including Section 2.01(b) hereof) and commencing
on and after the ABL Commitment Date, the L/C Issuer shall issue or cause the issuance of standby and/or trade letters of credit
for the account of any of the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries upon the request of the Borrowing Agent (each such letter
of credit, a "Letter of Credit"), which such Letters of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars. The Maximum Undrawn
Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall not exceed in the aggregate at any time the lower of (i) (A) the Borrowing Base
minus (B) the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans then outstanding, or (ii) the Letter of Credit Sublimit;
provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing or in any other provision hereof, no
Letter of Credit shall be issued if after giving effect thereto, any of the credit limits set forth in Section 2.01(b) would be
violated. All disbursements or payments related to Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Revolving Loans and shall bear interest
at the rate applicable to Revolving Loans that are Reference Rate Loans in accordance with Section 2.04. Letters of Credit that
have not been drawn upon shall not bear interest.


 


Section 3.02       
Issuance of Letters of Credit.


 


(a)               
Subject to the terms hereof, the Borrowers may request the L/C Issuer to issue or cause the issuance of a Letter
of Credit by delivering to the Administrative Agent, at the Payment Office, prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time), at least
five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance, the L/C Issuer's form of letter of credit application (the "Letter
of Credit Application") completed to the reasonable satisfaction of the L/C Issuer, and such other certificates, documents
and other papers and information as the L/C Issuer may reasonably request. The Borrowing Agent also has the right to give instructions
and make agreements with the L/C Issuer with respect to any application, any applicable letter of credit and related security agreement,
any applicable letter of credit reimbursement agreement and/or any other applicable agreement, and the disposition of applicable
documents, and to agree with the L/C Issuer upon any amendment, extension or renewal of any Letter of Credit.


 


(b)              
Each Letter of Credit shall, among other things, (i) provide for the payment of sight drafts, other written demands
for payment, or acceptances of drafts when presented for honor thereunder in accordance with the terms thereof and when accompanied
by the documents described therein and (ii) have an expiry date not later than twelve (12) months after such Letter of Credit's
date of issuance (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, twelve (12) months after such renewal or extension) and
in no event later than the date that is 15 days prior to the Final Maturity Date. Each standby Letter of Credit shall be subject
either to the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (1993 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication
No. 600, and any amendments or revision thereof adhered to by the Issuer ("UCP 600") or the International Standby
Practices (ISP98-International Chamber of Commerce Publication Number 590) ("ISP98 Rules"), as determined by the
L/C Issuer, and each trade Letter of Credit shall be subject to UCP 600.


 






    	- 88 -



    


    

 


(c)               
The Administrative Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to notify the Lenders of the request by the Borrowing Agent
for a Letter of Credit hereunder.


 


Section 3.03       
Requirements For Issuance of Letters of Credit. The Borrowing Agent shall authorize and direct the L/C Issuer
to name any applicable Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries as the "Applicant" or "Account Party" of each
Letter of Credit. If the Administrative Agent is not the L/C Issuer of any Letter of Credit, the Borrowing Agent shall authorize
and direct the L/C Issuer to deliver to the Administrative Agent all instruments, documents, and other writings and property received
by the L/C Issuer pursuant to the Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon the Administrative Agent's instructions and agreements
with respect to all matters arising in connection with the Letter of Credit or the application therefor.


 


Section 3.04       
Disbursements, Reimbursement.


 


(a)               
Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Revolving Loan Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing
thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender's applicable Pro Rata Share (determined in accordance with paragraph (a) of the definition
of "Pro Rata Share") of the Maximum Face Amount of such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively.


 


(b)              
In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the
L/C Issuer will promptly notify the Borrowing Agent. Provided that it shall have received such notice by 12:00 noon (New York
City time) with respect to any Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall reimburse (such obligation to reimburse the L/C Issuer together
with any interest thereon pursuant to Section 2.04 shall be referred to as a "Reimbursement Obligations") the
L/C Issuer prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such date that an amount is paid by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit
(each such date, a "Drawing Date") in an amount in Dollars. In the event the Borrowers fail to reimburse the L/C
Issuer for the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) with respect to any Letter
of Credit on the Drawing Date, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Revolving Loan Lender thereof, and the Borrowers
shall be deemed to have requested that a Revolving Loan that is a Reference Rate Loan be made by the Revolving Loan Lenders to
be disbursed on the Drawing Date under such Letter of Credit, pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(i). Any notice given by the Administrative
Agent pursuant to this Section 3.04(b) may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an
immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.


 


(c)               
Each Revolving Loan Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 3.04(b) make available to the L/C Issuer an
amount in immediately available funds equal to its applicable Pro Rata Share (determined in accordance with paragraph (a) of the
definition of "Pro Rata Share") of the amount of the drawing, whereupon the participating Lenders shall (subject to Section
3.04(d)) each be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan that is a Reference Rate Loan to the Borrowers in that amount. If any Revolving
Loan Lender so notified fails to make available to the L/C Issuer the amount of such Lender's applicable Pro Rata Share of such
amount by no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) with respect to any Letter of Credit on the Drawing Date, then (unless L/C
Issuer and such Lender shall agree otherwise, each in their sole and absolute discretion) interest shall accrue on such Lender's
obligation to make such payment, from the Drawing Date to the date on which such Lender makes such payment (i) at a rate per annum
equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate during the first three days following the Drawing Date and (ii) at a rate per annum equal
to the interest rate on Revolving Loans that are Reference Rate Loans on and after the fourth day following the Drawing Date. The
Administrative Agent will promptly give notice of the occurrence of the Drawing Date, but failure of the Administrative Agent to
give any such notice on the Drawing Date or in sufficient time to enable any Revolving Loan Lender to effect such payment on such
date shall not relieve such Lender from its obligation under this Section 3.04(c), provided that such Lender shall not be obligated
to pay interest as provided in Section 3.04(c) (i) and (ii) until and commencing from the date of receipt of notice from the Administrative
Agent of a drawing. Each Revolving Loan Lender's payment to the L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section 3.04(c) shall be deemed to
be a payment in respect of its participation in such Letter of Credit Borrowing and shall constitute a "Participation Revolving
Loan" from such Lender in satisfaction of its Participation Commitment under this Section 3.04.


 






    	- 89 -



    


    

 


(d)              
With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted into a Revolving Loan to the Borrowers in whole or
in part as contemplated by Section 3.04(b), because of the failure of Borrowers to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section
5.02 (other than any notice requirements) or for any other reason, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C
Issuer a borrowing (each a "Letter of Credit Borrowing") in Dollars in the amount of such drawing. Such Letter
of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate per annum equal
to the interest rate on Revolving Loans that are Reference Rate Loans.


 


(e)               
Each Lender's Participation Commitment shall continue until the last to occur of any of the following events: (x)
the L/C Issuer ceases to be obligated to issue or cause to be issued Letters of Credit hereunder; (y) no Letter of Credit issued
or created hereunder remains outstanding and uncanceled and (z) all Persons (other than the Borrowers) have been fully reimbursed
for all payments made under or relating to Letters of Credit.


 


Section 3.05       
Repayment of Participation Revolving Loans.


 


(a)               
Upon (and only upon) receipt by the L/C Issuer for its account of immediately available funds from the Borrowers
(i) in reimbursement of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit with respect to which any Lender has made
a Participation Revolving Loan to the L/C Issuer or (ii) in payment of interest on such a payment made by the L/C Issuer under
such a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer will pay to each Revolving Loan Lender in the same funds and currencies as those received
by the L/C Issuer, the amount of such Lender's applicable Pro Rata Share of such funds, except the L/C Issuer shall retain the
amount of the applicable Pro Rata Share of such funds of any Revolving Loan Lender that did not make a Participation Revolving
Loan in respect of such payment by the L/C Issuer.


 






    	- 90 -



    


    

 


(b)              
If the L/C Issuer is required at any time to return to the Borrowers or to a receiver, receiver and manager, custodian,
conservator, trustee, administrator, liquidator, monitor, assignee for the benefit of creditors, sequestrator or any other official
in any Insolvency Proceeding, any portion of the payments made by the Borrowers to the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 3.05(a) in
reimbursement of a payment made under any Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon, each Revolving Loan Lender shall, on demand
of the L/C Issuer, forthwith return to the L/C Issuer the amount of its applicable Pro Rata Share of any amounts so returned by
the L/C Issuer plus interest at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.


 


Section 3.06       
Documentation. The Borrowers agree to be bound by the terms of the Letter of Credit Application and by the
L/C Issuer's interpretation of any of Letter of Credit issued for the Loan Account of the Borrowers and by the L/C Issuer's written
regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit though the L/C Issuer's interpretations may be different from
the interpretations of the Borrowers. In the event of a conflict between the Letter of Credit Application and this Agreement, this
Agreement shall govern. It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct
(as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment which is no longer appealable), neither the L/C Issuer
nor the Administrative Agent shall be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following
any instructions of the Borrowing Agent or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements
thereto.


 


Section 3.07       
Determination to Honor Drawing Request. In determining whether to honor any request for drawing under any
Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer shall be responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates
required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements
of such Letter of Credit and that any other drawing condition appearing on the face of such Letter of Credit has been satisfied
in the manner so set forth.


 


Section 3.08       
Nature of Participation and Reimbursement Obligations. Each applicable Revolving Loan Lender's obligation
in accordance with this Agreement to make the Revolving Loans or Participation Revolving Loans as a result of a drawing under a
Letter of Credit, and the obligations of the Borrowers to reimburse the L/C Issuer upon a draw under a Letter of Credit, shall
be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Article III under
all circumstances, including the following circumstances:


 


(a)               
any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the L/C Issuer,
the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers or any other Person for any reason whatsoever;


 


(b)              
the failure of the Borrowers or any other Person to comply, in connection with a Letter of Credit Borrowing, with
the conditions set forth in this Agreement for the making of a Revolving Loan, it being acknowledged that such conditions are not
required for the making of a Letter of Credit Borrowing and the obligation of the Lenders to make Participation Revolving Loans
under Section 3.04;


 






    	- 91 -



    


    

 


(c)               
any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other Loan Documents;


 


(d)              
any claim of breach of warranty that might be made by the Borrowers or any Lender against the beneficiary of a Letter
of Credit, or the existence of any claim, set-off, recoupment, counterclaim, crossclaim, defense or other right which the Borrowers
or any Lender may have at any time against a beneficiary, any successor beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit or
the proceeds thereof (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any
Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, such Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein
or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the Borrowers or any Subsidiaries of the Borrowers
and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured);


 


(e)               
the lack of power or authority of any signer of (or any defect in or forgery of any signature or endorsement on)
or the form of or lack of validity, sufficiency, accuracy, enforceability or genuineness of any draft, demand, instrument, certificate
or other document presented under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, or any fraud or alleged fraud in connection with
any Letter of Credit, or the transport of any property or provisions of services relating to a Letter of Credit, in each case,
even if the Administrative Agent or any of the Administrative Agent's Affiliates has been notified thereof;


 


(f)               
except as provided in Section 3.07, any payment by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit against presentation
of a demand, draft or certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit;


 


(g)              
the solvency of, or any acts or omissions by, any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or any other Person having
a role in any transaction or obligation relating to a Letter of Credit, or the existence, nature, quality, quantity, condition,
value or other characteristic of any property or services relating to a Letter of Credit;


 


(h)              
any failure by the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer to issue any Letter of Credit in the form requested by
the Borrowing Agent, unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from the Borrowing Agent of such failure within
three (3) Business Days after the Administrative Agent shall have furnished the Borrowing Agent a copy of such Letter of Credit
and such error is material and no drawing has been made thereon prior to receipt of such notice;


 


(i)                
any Material Adverse Effect on any Borrower or any Guarantor;

the fact that the Final Maturity Date shall have occurred or this Agreement or the Obligations hereunder shall have
been terminated; and


 


(n)              
any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.


 


Section 3.09       
[Intentionally Omitted].


 


Section 3.10       
Liability for Acts and Omissions. As between the Borrowers, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent and
Lenders, the Borrowers assume all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries
of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent shall
not be responsible for: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by
any party in connection with the application for an issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be
in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent
shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to
transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which
may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any
other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon
such Letter of Credit or any other claim of the Borrowers against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee,
or any dispute between or among the Borrowers and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (iv) errors,
omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise,
whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or
otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii)
the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit;
or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the L/C Issuer, including any governmental acts, and none
of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of the L/C Issuer's rights or powers hereunder. Nothing in
the preceding sentence shall relieve the L/C Issuer from liability for the L/C Issuer's gross negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment which is no longer appealable) in connection
with actions or omissions described in such clauses (i) through (viii) of such sentence. In no event shall the L/C Issuer or the
L/C Issuer's Affiliates be liable to the Borrowers for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special
damages or expenses (including without limitation attorneys' fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of
any property relating to a Letter of Credit.


 


Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the L/C Issuer and each of its Affiliates (i) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by the L/C Issuer
or such Affiliate to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit, (ii) may honor any
presentation if the documents presented appear on their face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant
Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant
to a court order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement
to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by the L/C Issuer or its
Affiliates; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt
of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not
be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit;
(v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such
bank is located; and (vi) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on the L/C Issuer or its Affiliate in any way related to
any order issued at the applicant's request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any
similar document (each an "Order") and honor any drawing in connection with any Letter of Credit that is the subject
of such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform
in any way with such Letter of Credit.


 






    	- 93 -



    


    

 


In furtherance and extension and not in limitation
of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by the L/C Issuer under or in connection with the Letters
of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith and without gross
negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment which is no longer appealable),
shall not put the L/C Issuer under any resulting liability to the Borrowers or any Revolving Loan Lender.


 


Article
IV



APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS; DEFAULTING LENDERS;

JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY OF BORROWERS


 


Section 4.01       
Payments; Computations and Statements. (a) The Borrowing Agent will make each payment under this Agreement
not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the day when due, in lawful money of the United States of America and in
immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent's Account. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 12:00
noon (New York City time) on any Business Day will be credited to the Loan Account on the next succeeding Business Day. All payments
shall be made by the Borrowing Agent without set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, deduction or other defense to the Agents and the
Lenders. Except as provided in Section 2.02, after receipt, the Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed
like funds relating to the payment of principal ratably to the applicable Lenders in accordance with their applicable Pro Rata
Shares 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, provided that the Administrative Agent will cause to be distributed all interest
and fees received from or for the account of the Borrowers not less than once each month and in any event promptly after receipt
thereof. The Lenders and the Borrowers hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to, and the Administrative Agent may, from time
to time, charge the Loan Account of the Borrowing Agent with any amount due and payable by the Borrowers under any Loan Document.
Each of the Lenders and the Borrowers agree that the Administrative Agent shall have the right to make such charges whether or
not any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or whether any of the conditions precedent in Section
5.02 have been satisfied. Any amount charged to the Loan Account of the Borrowing Agent shall be deemed a Revolving Loan hereunder
made by the Revolving Loan Lenders to the Borrowers, funded by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Revolving Loan Lenders
and subject to Section 2.02 of this Agreement. The Lenders and the Borrowers confirm that any charges which the Administrative
Agent may so make to the Loan Account of the Borrowing Agent as herein provided will be made as an accommodation to the Borrowers
and solely at the Administrative Agent's discretion, provided that the Administrative Agent shall from time to time upon the request
of the Collateral Agent, charge the Loan Account of the Borrowing Agent with any amount due and payable under any Loan Document.
Whenever any payment to be made under any such Loan Document shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such
payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation
of interest or fees, as the case may be. All computations of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year
of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for
which such fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fees hereunder shall be conclusive
and binding for all purposes in the absence of manifest error.

(b)              
The Administrative Agent shall provide the Borrowing Agent, promptly after the end of each calendar month, a summary
statement (in the form from time to time used by the Administrative Agent) of the opening and closing daily balances in the Loan
Account of the Borrowing Agent during such month, the amounts and dates of all Loans made to the Borrowers during such month, the
amounts and dates of all payments on account of the Loans to the Borrowers during such month and the Loans to which such payments
were applied, the amount of interest accrued on the Loans to the Borrowers during such month, any Letters of Credit issued by the
L/C Issuer for the account of the Borrowers during such month, specifying the face amount thereof, the amount of charges to the
Loan Account and/or Loans made to the Borrowers during such month to reimburse the Revolving Loan Lenders for drawings made under
Letters of Credit, and the amount and nature of any charges to the Loan Account made during such month on account of fees, commissions,
expenses and other Obligations. All entries on any such statement shall be presumed to be correct and, 30 days after the same is
sent, shall be final and conclusive absent manifest error.


 


Section 4.02       
Sharing of Payments, Etc. Except as provided in Section 2.02 hereof, if any Lender shall obtain any payment
(whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of any Obligation in excess
of its ratable share of payments on account of similar obligations obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith (a)
turn the same over to Administrative Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to Administrative
Agent, or in immediately available funds, as applicable, for the account of all of the Lenders and for application to the Obligations
in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, or (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in such
similar obligations held by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with
each of them in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that (a) if all or any portion
of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and
such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal
to such Lender's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender's required repayment to (ii) the total
amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender of any interest or other amount paid by the purchasing Lender in respect of the
total amount so recovered) and (b) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (i) any payment made
by the Borrowers 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 (ii) 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 Letters of Credit 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). The Borrowers agree that any
Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 4.02 may, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, exercise all of its rights (including the Lender's right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such
Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation.

of any other Obligations, shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent among such of the Lenders as are entitled thereto, in

Loans or Letter of Credit Obligations, as designated by the Person making payment when the payment is made.


 


(b)

acting reasonably and in good faith.


 


(c)               
In each instance, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, Section 4.03(b) shall not be deemed to apply to any payment by the Borrowers specified by the Borrowers to the

of all amounts owing under the Loan Documents in respect of such Obligations, including loan fees, service fees, professional fees,

on interest, expense reimbursements and indemnities Proceeding, except to the extent that default or overdue interest (but not
any other interest) and fees, each arising from or related to a default, are disallowed in any Insolvency Proceeding; provided,
however, that for the purposes of clause (F) of Section 4.03(b)(i) and clause (I) of Section 4.03(b)(ii), "paid in

(e)               
In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 4.03 and other provisions contained
in any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that both such priority provisions in such documents shall
be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of any actual, irreconcilable
conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 4.03 shall control and govern.


 


Section 4.04       
Defaulting Lenders. 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:


 


(a)               
The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to such Defaulting Lender any payments made by the Borrowers
to the Administrative Agent for such Defaulting Lender's benefit, and, in the absence of such transfer to such Defaulting Lender,
the Administrative Agent shall transfer any such payments to each other non-Defaulting Lender ratably in accordance with their
Pro Rata Shares (without giving effect to the Pro Rata Shares of such Defaulting Lender) (but only to the extent that such Defaulting
Lender's Loans were funded by the other Lenders) or, if so directed by the Borrowing Agent and if no Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing (and to the extent such Defaulting Lender's Loans were not funded by the other Lenders), retain
the same to be re-advanced to the Borrowers as if such Defaulting Lender had made such Loans to the Borrowers. Subject to the foregoing,
the Administrative Agent may hold and, in its discretion, re-lend to the Borrowers for the account of such Defaulting Lender the
amount of all such payments received and retained by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender. No Defaulting
Lender shall be entitled to receive any Unused Line Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the
Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fees that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting
Lender).


 


(b)              
Any such failure to fund by any Defaulting Lender shall constitute a material breach by such Defaulting Lender of
this Agreement and shall entitle the Borrowers to replace the Defaulting Lender with one or more substitute Lenders, and the Defaulting
Lender shall have no right to refuse to be replaced hereunder. Such notice to replace the Defaulting Lender shall specify an effective
date for such replacement, which date shall not be later than 15 Business Days after the date such notice is given. Prior to the
effective date of such replacement, the Defaulting Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance, subject only
to the Defaulting Lender being repaid its share of the outstanding Obligations without any premium or penalty of any kind whatsoever.
If the Defaulting Lender shall refuse or fail to execute and deliver any such Assignment and Acceptance prior to the effective
date of such replacement, the Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance.
The replacement of any Defaulting Lender shall be made in accordance with the terms of Section 12.07.


 






    	- 98 -



    


    

 


(c)               
The operation of this Section shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitments of any Lender,
to relieve or excuse the performance by such Defaulting Lender or any other Lender of its duties and obligations hereunder, or
to relieve or excuse the performance by the Borrowers of their duties and obligations hereunder to the Administrative Agent or
to the Lenders other than such Defaulting Lender.


 


(d)              
This Section shall remain effective with respect to such Lender until either (i) the Obligations under this Agreement
shall have been declared or shall have become immediately due and payable or (ii) the non-Defaulting Lenders, the L/C Issuer, the
Agents, and the Borrowing Agent shall have waived such Defaulting Lender's default in writing, and the Defaulting Lender makes
its Pro Rata Share of the applicable defaulted Loans and pays to the Agents all amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender in respect
thereof; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on
behalf of the Borrowers while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; 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 such Lender's having been a Defaulting Lender.


 


Section 4.05       
Borrowing Agent; Joint and Several Liability of the Borrowers.


 


(a)               
Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Parent as the borrowing agent and attorney-in-fact for the Borrowers
(the "Borrowing Agent") which appointment shall remain in full force and effect unless and until the Agents shall
have received prior written notice signed by all of the Borrowers that such appointment has been revoked and that another Borrower
has been appointed Borrowing Agent. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Borrowing Agent (i) to provide
to the Agents and receive from the Agents all notices with respect to Loans obtained for the benefit of any Borrower and all other
notices and instructions under this Agreement and (ii) to take such action as the Borrowing Agent deems appropriate on its
behalf to obtain Loans and to exercise such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto to carry out the purposes of this
Agreement. It is understood that the handling of the Loan Account and Collateral of the Borrowers in a combined fashion, as more
fully set forth herein, is done solely as an accommodation to the Borrowers in order to utilize the collective borrowing powers
of the Borrowers in the most efficient and economical manner and at their request, and that neither the Agents nor the Lenders
shall incur liability to the Borrowers as a result hereof. Each Borrower expects to derive benefit, directly or indirectly, from
the handling of the Loan Account and the Collateral in a combined fashion since the successful operation of each Borrower is dependent
on the continued successful performance of the integrated group.


 






    	- 99 -



    


    

 


(b)              
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, each Borrower hereby accepts
joint and several liability hereunder and under the other Loan Documents for the Obligations in consideration of the financial
accommodations to be provided by the Agents and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, for the mutual benefit,
directly and indirectly, of each of the Borrowers and in consideration of the undertakings of the other Borrowers to accept joint
and several liability for the Obligations. Each of the Borrowers, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Borrowers, with respect to
the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under this Section
4.05), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all of the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each
of the Borrowers without preferences or distinction among them. If and to the extent that any of the Borrowers shall fail to make
any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the
terms thereof, then in each such event, the other Borrowers will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation.
Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Obligations of each of the Borrowers under the provisions of this Section 4.05
constitute the absolute and unconditional, full recourse Obligations of each of the Borrowers, enforceable against each such Person
to the full extent of its properties and assets, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement,
the other Loan Documents or any other circumstances whatsoever.


 


(c)               
The provisions of this Section 4.05 are made for the benefit of the Agents, the Lenders and their successors and
assigns, and may be enforced by them from time to time against any or all of the Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may arise
and without requirement on the part of the Agents, the Lenders or such successors or assigns first to marshal any of its or their
claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against any of the other Borrowers or to exhaust any remedies available to it
or them against any of the other Borrowers or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations
hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 4.05 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations
shall have been Paid In Full or otherwise fully satisfied.


 


(d)              
Each of the Borrowers hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of contribution or subrogation against
the other Borrowers with respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, any payments
made by it to the Agents or the Lenders with respect to any of the Obligations or any Collateral, until such time as all of the
Obligations have been Paid In Full. Any claim which any Borrower may have against any other Borrower with respect to any payments
to the Agents or the Lenders hereunder or under any other Loan Documents are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right
of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior Payment In
Full in cash of the Obligations.

the Loan Parties' business shall have been obtained and shall be in full force and effect. There shall exist no claim, action,
suit, investigation, litigation or proceeding (including, without limitation, shareholder or derivative litigation), threatened

have received all such information and such counterpart originals or certified or other copies of such documents as the Collateral
Agent or such counsel may reasonably request.


 


(j)

matters set forth in this Section 5.01(k) and containing the calculation of the Leverage Ratio.


 


Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, (x) the only representations and warranties the accuracy of which will be a condition
to the availability of the initial funding of the Loans on the Effective Date will be (A) the Specified Acquisition Representations
and (B) the Specified Representations and (y) to the extent a perfected security interest or Liens in any Collateral
(the security interest or Liens in respect of which cannot be perfected by means of (i) the filing of a UCC financing statement,
PPSA financing statement or publication under the Civil Code of Québec (ii) the making of a United States Federal
intellectual property filing or a Canadian Intellectual Property filing, or (iii) delivery of possession of Equity Interests
in respect of a certificated security, provided, that such delivery of certificated securities on the Effective Date shall only
be required to the extent such certificated securities are already in existence and in the actual possession of the Loan Parties
on the Effective Date after the Loan Parties' use of commercially reasonable efforts without undue burden or expense to procure
such certificates from the sellers under the Acquisition Agreement or the Existing Lenders) is not able to be provided on the Effective
Date after the Borrowers' use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so (without the imposition of undue burden or expense),
the perfection of such security interest or Lien in such Collateral will not constitute a condition precedent to the availability
of the applicable Loans on such date, but a security interest in such Collateral will be required to be perfected within 15 Business
Days (unless otherwise provided for in this Agreement or any other Loan Document) after the Effective Date pursuant to arrangements
to be mutually agreed between the Borrowers and the Agents. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing provisions of this paragraph
are referred to as the "Certain Funds Provision".

any Lender pursuant hereto or thereto on or prior to the date of such Loan or such Letter of Credit are true and correct in all
material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations or warranties that already
are qualified or modified as to "materiality" or "Material Adverse Effect" in the text thereof, which representations
and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects subject to such qualification) on and as of such date as though made on
and as of such date, except to the extent that any such representation or warranty expressly relates solely to an earlier date
(in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects (except that such materiality
qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations or warranties that already are qualified or modified as to "materiality"
or "Material Adverse Effect" in the text thereof, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all
respects subject to such qualification) on and as of such earlier date), (ii) at the time of and after giving effect to the making
of such Loan and the application of the proceeds thereof or at the time of issuance of such Letter of Credit, no Default or Event

subsequent set forth below on or before the date applicable thereto (it being understood that (i) the failure by the Loan

warranty or covenant in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to be breached, the Required Lenders hereby waive such breach
for the period from the Effective Date until the date on which such condition subsequent is required to be fulfilled pursuant to
this Section 5.03):

8.01(b), deposit or cause to be deposited promptly, and in any event no later than the next Business Day after the date of receipt

to any Canadian Loan Party) into a Cash Management Account of the Canadian Loan Parties or (iii) any UK Loan Party (including payments
made by Account Debtors directly to any UK Loan Party) into a Cash Management Account of the UK Loan Parties.


 


(b)              
Within ninety (90) days after the Effective Date (or such longer period as agreed to in writing by the Agents), the
Loan Parties shall, with respect to each Cash Management Account, deliver to the Collateral Agent a Cash Management Agreement with
respect to such Cash Management Account. From and after ninety (90) days after the Effective Date (or such longer period as agreed
to in writing by the Agents), the Loan Parties shall not maintain, and shall not permit any of their Subsidiaries to maintain,
cash, Cash Equivalents or other amounts in any Deposit Account or Securities Account, unless the Collateral Agent shall have received
a Cash Management Agreement in respect of each such Deposit Account or Securities Account, provided that the Loan Parties
and their Subsidiaries shall be entitled to maintain (and deposit proceeds in respect of Collateral into) Excluded Accounts.


 


(c)               
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in a Cash Management Agreement with respect to a Cash Management

Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders. All checks, drafts, notes, money orders, acceptances, cash and

and upon receipt be deposited by such Loan Party in original form and no later than the next Business Day after receipt thereof
into the Administrative Agent's Account. Each Loan Party shall not commingle such collections with the proceeds of any assets not
included in the Collateral. No checks, drafts or other instrument received by the Administrative Agent shall constitute final payment
to the Administrative Agent unless and until such instruments have actually been collected.


 


(f)               
So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Loan Parties shall take all commercially reasonable
steps to enforce, collect and receive all amounts owing on the Accounts Receivable of the Loan Parties or any of their Subsidiaries.
After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may send a notice of assignment and/or
notice of the Collateral Agent's security interest to any and all Account Debtors or third parties holding or otherwise concerned
with any of the Collateral, and thereafter the Collateral Agent or its designee shall have the sole right to collect the Accounts
Receivable and payment intangibles of the Loan Parties and/or may take possession of the Collateral and the books and records relating
thereto. After the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Loan Parties shall not, without prior written
consent of the Administrative Agent, grant any extension of time of payment of any Account Receivable or payment intangible, compromise
or settle any Account Receivable or payment intangible for less than the full amount thereof, release, in whole or in part, any
Person or property liable for the payment thereof, or allow any credit or discount whatsoever thereon.


 


(g)              
Each Loan Party recognizes that the amounts evidenced by checks, notes, drafts or any other items of payment relating
to and/or proceeds of Collateral may not be collectible by Administrative Agent on the date received by Administrative Agent. Administrative
Agent shall conditionally credit the Loan Account for each item of payment on the next Business Day after the Business Day on which
such item of payment is received by Administrative Agent (and the Business Day on which each such item of payment is so credited
shall be referred to, with respect to such item, as the "Application Date"). Administrative Agent may charge the
Loan Account for the amount of any item of payment which is returned, for any reason whatsoever, to Administrative Agent unpaid;
provided that if the Administrative Agent subsequently received payment of such amount, it will credit such amount to the Loan
Account. Subject to the foregoing, each Loan Party agrees that for purposes of computing the interest charges under this Agreement,
each item of payment received by Administrative Agent shall be deemed applied by Administrative Agent on account of the Obligations
on its respective Application Date.

approved, and said attorney or designee shall not be liable for any acts of omission or commission (other than acts of omission
or commission constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction),
or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law; this power being coupled with an interest is irrevocable until (i) all
of the Loans, Letters of Credit Obligations and other Obligations under the Loan Documents are Paid In Full and all of the Loan
Documents are terminated or (ii) the applicable Event of Default giving rise to such power is waived or cured.


 


(i)                
Nothing herein contained shall be construed to constitute any Agent as agent of any Loan Party for any purpose whatsoever,
and the Agents shall not be responsible or liable for any shortage, discrepancy, damage, loss or destruction of any part of the
Collateral wherever the same may be located and regardless of the cause thereof (other than from acts of omission or commission
constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). The
Agents shall not, under any circumstance or in any event whatsoever, have any liability for any error or omission or delay of any
kind occurring in the settlement, collection or payment of any of the Accounts Receivable or any instrument received in payment
thereof or for any damage resulting therefrom (other than acts of omission or commission constituting gross negligence or willful
misconduct as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). The Agents, by anything herein or in any assignment
or otherwise, do not assume any of the obligations under any contract or agreement assigned to any Agent and shall not be responsible
in any way for the performance by any Loan Party of any of the terms and conditions thereof.

(j)                
If any Account Receivable includes a charge for any tax payable to any Governmental Authority, each Agent is hereby
authorized (but in no event obligated) in its discretion to pay the amount thereof to the proper taxing authority for the Loan
Parties' account and to charge the Loan Parties therefor. The Loan Parties shall notify the Agents if any Account Receivable includes
any taxes due to any such Governmental Authority and, in the absence of such notice, the Agents shall have the right to retain
the full proceeds of such Account Receivable received by any Agents and apply the same to the Revolving Loans and shall not be
liable for any taxes that may be due by reason of the sale and delivery creating such Account Receivable.


 


(k)              
Notwithstanding any other terms set forth in the Loan Documents, the rights and remedies of the Agents and the Lenders
herein provided, and the obligations of the Loan Parties set forth herein, are cumulative of, may be exercised singly or concurrently
with, and are not exclusive of, any other rights, remedies or obligations set forth in any other Loan Document or as provided by

8.02 are to be in form reasonably satisfactory to the Agents and are to be executed and delivered to the Agents from time to time
solely for their convenience in maintaining records of the Collateral. If the Loan Parties become aware of anything materially
detrimental to any of the Loan Parties customers' credit, the Loan Parties will promptly advise the Agents thereof.


 


Section 8.03       
Status of Accounts Receivable and Other Collateral. Each of the Accounts Receivable identified on a Borrowing
Base Certificate as an Eligible Account shall be a bona fide and valid account representing a bona fide indebtedness incurred by
the Account Debtor therein named, for the sum set forth in the invoice relating thereto (provided such invoice may be subject
to (i) agreed upon returns, discounts, allowances or credits and (ii) immaterial or unintentional invoice errors) with respect
to an absolute sale or lease and delivery of goods upon stated terms of the applicable Borrower, or work, labor or services theretofore
rendered by such Borrower as of the date each such Account Receivable is created. Each of the Accounts Receivable identified on

Agent or its designee may at any time and from time to time employ and maintain on the premises of any Loan Party a custodian selected
by the Collateral Agent or its designee who shall have full authority to do all acts necessary to protect the Agents' and the Lenders'
interests. During the continuance of an Event of Default, each Loan Party hereby agrees to, and to cause its Subsidiaries to, cooperate
with any such custodian and to do whatever the Collateral Agent or its designee may reasonably request to preserve the Collateral.
All costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent or its designee by reason of the employment of the custodian shall be the
responsibility of the Borrowers and charged to the Loan Account.

Cure Right. In the event that the Borrowers fail to comply with the requirements of any financial covenant

are required to be delivered with respect to the applicable Fiscal Quarter hereunder, the Parent shall have the right to issue
Permitted Cure Equity for cash or otherwise receive cash contributions to the capital of the Parent, and, in each case, to contribute
any such cash to the capital of the Parent, and apply the amount of the proceeds thereof to increase Consolidated EBITDA with respect
to such applicable Fiscal Quarter (the "Cure Right"); provided that (a) such proceeds are actually received
by the Parent no later than 5 days after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered with respect to such
fiscal quarter hereunder, (b) such proceeds do not exceed the aggregate amount necessary to cure (by addition to Consolidated EBITDA)
such Event of Default under Section 7.03 for such period, (c) such proceeds do not exceed 15% of Consolidated EBITDA of the Parent

for such twelve month period (either through repayment or netting) and (i) such proceeds shall be immediately applied to prepay
the Term Loan and applied to the inverse order of maturity and the Borrowers shall pay the Applicable Prepayment Premium. If, after
giving effect to the foregoing pro forma adjustment (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, giving pro forma adjustment to any repayment
of Indebtedness in connection therewith), the Borrowers are in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Section 7.03,
the Borrowers shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of such Section as of the relevant date of determination with
the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply on such date, and the applicable breach or default of such Section
7.03 that had occurred shall be deemed cured for purposes of this Agreement. The parties hereby acknowledge that this Section may
not be relied on for purposes of calculating any financial ratios other than as applicable to Section 7.03 and shall not result
in any adjustment to any amounts other than the amount of the Consolidated EBITDA referred to in the immediately preceding sentence.

set forth in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents. The duties of the Agents shall be mechanical and administrative in
nature. The Agents shall not have by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document a fiduciary relationship in respect of
any Lender (other than the Collateral Agent as required in order to give effect to its appointment as trustee under the UK Security
Documents). Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, express or implied, is intended to or shall be construed to impose
upon the Agents any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document except as expressly set forth herein or
therein. Each Lender shall make its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Loan Parties in
connection with the making and the continuance of the Loans hereunder and shall make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness
of the Loan Parties and the value of the Collateral, and the Agents shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on
a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into their
possession before the initial Loan hereunder or at any time or times thereafter, provided that, upon the reasonable request of
a Lender, each Agent shall provide to such Lender any documents or reports delivered to such Agent by the Loan Parties pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. If any Agent seeks the consent or approval of 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) to the
taking or refraining from taking any action hereunder, such Agent shall send notice thereof to each Lender. Each Agent shall promptly
notify each Lender any time that 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) have instructed such Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto.

(b)              
Each Agent may, upon any term or condition it specifies, delegate or exercise any of its rights, powers and remedies
under, and delegate or perform any of its duties or any other action with respect to, any Loan Document by or through any trustee,
co-agent, employee, attorney-in-fact and any other Person (including any Lender). Any such Person shall benefit from this Article
X to the extent provided by the applicable Agent.


 


Section 10.03   
Rights, Exculpation, Etc. The Agents and their directors, officers, agents or employees shall not be liable
for any action taken or omitted to be taken by them under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except
for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents (i) may treat the payee of any Loan as the owner thereof until
the Agents receive written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof, pursuant to Section 12.07 hereof, signed by such payee
and in form satisfactory to the Agents; (ii) may consult with legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to any
Agent or counsel to the Loan Parties), independent public accountants, and other experts selected by any of them and shall not
be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by any of them in accordance with the advice of such counsel
or experts; (iii) make no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements,
certificates, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; (iv) shall
not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents on the part of any Person, the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event
of Default, or to inspect the Collateral or other property (including, without limitation, the books and records) of any Person;
(v) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency
or value of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto;
and (vi) shall not be deemed to have made any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectibility of the
Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent's Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan
Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Agents be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain
any portion of the Collateral. The Agents shall not be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made in good faith
pursuant to Section 4.03, and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error,
and the sole recourse of any Lender to whom payment was due but not made shall be to recover from other Lenders any payment in
excess of the amount which they are determined to be entitled. The Agents may at any time request instructions from the Lenders
with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the other Loan Documents the Agents
are permitted or required to take or to grant, and if such instructions are promptly requested, the Agents shall be absolutely
entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval under any of the Loan Documents until they shall have received
such instructions from 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). Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against
any Agent as a result of such Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in
accordance with the instructions of 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).

Section 10.04   
Reliance. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notices, statements, certificates, orders
or other documents or any telephone message believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent
or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and
its duties hereunder or thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.


 


Section 10.05   
Indemnification. To the extent that any Agent or the L/C Issuer is not reimbursed and indemnified by any Loan
Party, and whether or not such Agent or the L/C Issuer has made demand on any Loan Party for the same, the Lenders will, within
five days of written demand by such Agent or the L/C Issuer, reimburse such Agent or the L/C Issuer for and indemnify such Agent
or the L/C Issuer from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses (including, without limitation, client charges and expenses of counsel or any other advisor to such Agent or the
L/C Issuer), advances or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against
such Agent or the L/C Issuer in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any
action taken or omitted by such Agent or the L/C Issuer under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, in proportion
to each Lender's Pro Rata Share, including, without limitation, advances and disbursements made pursuant to Section 10.08;
provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, advances or disbursements for which there has been a final non-appealable
judicial determination that such liability resulted from such Agent's or the L/C Issuer's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 10.05 shall survive the Payment In Full of the Loans and the termination
of this Agreement.


 


Section 10.06   
Agents Individually. With respect to its Pro Rata Share of the Total Commitment hereunder and the Loans made
by it, each Agent shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities
as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender or maker of a Loan. The terms "Lenders" or "Required
Lenders" or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include each Agent in its individual
capacity as a Lender or one of the Required Lenders. Each Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and
generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with any Borrower as if it were not acting as an Agent pursuant
hereto without any duty to account to the other Lenders.


 






    	- 152 -



    


    

 


Section 10.07   
Successor Agent. (a) Any Agent may at any time give at least 30 days (or, in the event the Total Revolving
Credit Commitment has been reduced to zero, 10 days) prior written notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrowing Agent.
Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrowing Agent
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be required during the continuance of an Event of Default)
to appoint a successor Agent. If no such successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted
such appointment within 30 days (or 10 days, as the case may be) after the retiring 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 Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent. Whether or not a successor
Agent has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent and no written notice shall be required to the extent CBF appoints PNC as the administrative
agent in connection with the ABL Commitment Date.


 


(b)              
With effect from the Resignation Effective Date, (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by such Agent on behalf of a Secured
Party under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until the earlier of
(i) the date that is 60 days after such Agent resignation and (ii) the date on which a successor Agent is appointed)
and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through such retiring Agent shall instead
be made by or to each Lender and the L/C Issuer directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor
Agent as provided for in Section 10.07(a) above. Upon the acceptance of a successor's Agent's appointment as Agent hereunder, such
successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the
retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. After the
retiring Agent's resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article, Section 12.04 and Section
12.15 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by
it while the retiring Agent was acting as Agent.


 


Section 10.08   
Collateral Matters.


 


(a)               
The Agents may (but shall not be obligated) from time to time make such disbursements and advances ("Agent
Advances") which either Agent, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable to preserve, protect, prepare for
sale or lease or dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof, to enhance the likelihood or maximize the amount of repayment
by the Borrowers of the Loans, Letter of Credit Obligations and other Obligations or to pay any other amount chargeable to the
Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, costs, fees and expenses as described in Section
12.04. The Agent Advances shall be repayable on demand and be secured by the Collateral and shall bear interest at a rate per annum
equal to the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans that are Reference Rate Loans. The Agent Advances shall constitute Obligations
hereunder which may be charged to the Loan Account in accordance with Section 4.02. The Agent making such Agent Advance shall notify
each Lender and the Borrowing Agent in writing of each such Agent Advance, which notice shall include a description of the purpose
of such Agent Advance. Without limitation to its obligations pursuant to Section 10.05, each Lender agrees that it shall make available
to the applicable Agent, upon such Agent's demand, in Dollars in immediately available funds, the amount equal to such Lender's
Pro Rata Share of each such Agent Advance. If such funds are not made available to the applicable Agent by such Lender, such Agent
shall be entitled to recover such funds on demand from such Lender, together with interest thereon for each day from the date such
payment was due until the date such amount is paid to such Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for 3 Business Days and thereafter
at the Reference Rate.


 






    	- 153 -



    


    

 


(b)              
The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any
Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral upon termination of the Total Commitment and payment and satisfaction
of all Loans and all other Obligations in accordance with the terms hereof; or constituting property being sold or disposed of
in the ordinary course of any Loan Party's business or otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents; or constituting property in which the Loan Parties owned no interest at the time the Lien was granted or at any time
thereafter; or if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Lenders in accordance with Section 12.02. Upon request by
the Collateral Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent's authority to release particular types
or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 10.08(b).


 


(c)               
Without in any manner limiting the Collateral Agent's authority to act without any specific or further authorization
or consent by the Lenders (as set forth in Section 10.08(b)), each Lender agrees to confirm in writing, upon request by the
Collateral Agent, the authority to release Collateral conferred upon the Collateral Agent under Section 10.08(b). Upon receipt
by the Collateral Agent of confirmation from the Lenders of its authority to release any particular item or types of Collateral,
and upon prior written request by any Loan Party, the Collateral Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders
to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit
of the Agents and the Lenders upon such Collateral; provided, however, that (i) the Collateral Agent shall not be
required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Collateral Agent's opinion, would expose the Collateral Agent to liability
or create any obligations or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii)
such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Lien upon (or obligations of any Loan Party
in respect of) all interests in the Collateral retained by any Loan Party.


 


(d)              
Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Loan Parties, each Agent and
each Lender hereby agree that (i) no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral under any Loan
Document or to enforce any Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents
may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in accordance with the terms thereof, (ii) in the
event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and (iii) the
Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Agents and the Lenders (but not any other Agent or any Lender or Lenders
in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled
(either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the
purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral to be sold (A) at any public or private sale, (B) at any sale conducted
by the Collateral Agent under the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code (including pursuant to Sections 9-610 or 9-620 of the
Uniform Commercial Code) or PPSA, (C) at any sale or foreclosure conducted by the Collateral Agent (whether by judicial action
or otherwise) in accordance with applicable law or (D) any sale conducted pursuant to the provisions of any Debtor Relief Law (including
Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code), to use and apply all or any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price
for any Collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale.


 






    	- 154 -



    


    

 


(e)               
The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender to assure that the Collateral exists or is
owned by the Loan Parties or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Lien granted to the Collateral
Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document has been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected
or enforced or is entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care,
disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Collateral
Agent in this Section 10.08 or in any other Loan Document, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral,
or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole
discretion, given the Collateral Agent's own interest in the Collateral as one of the Lenders and that the Collateral Agent shall
have no duty or liability whatsoever to any other Lender, except as otherwise provided herein or in the other Loan Documents.


 


Section 10.09   
Agency for Perfection. Each Agent and each Lender hereby appoints each other Agent and each other Lender as
agent and bailee for the purpose of perfecting the security interests in and liens upon the Collateral in assets which, in accordance
with Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, can be perfected only by possession or control (or where the security interest of
a secured party with possession or control has priority over the security interest of another secured party) and each Agent and
each Lender hereby acknowledges that it holds possession of or otherwise controls any such Collateral for the benefit of the Agents
and the Lenders as secured party. Should the Administrative Agent or any Lender obtain possession or control of any such Collateral,
the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Collateral Agent's request
therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or in accordance with the Collateral Agent's instructions. In addition,
the Collateral Agent shall also have the power and authority hereunder to appoint such other sub-agents as may be necessary or
required under applicable state law or otherwise to perform its duties and enforce its rights with respect to the Collateral and
under the Loan Documents. Each Loan Party by its execution and delivery of this Agreement hereby consents to the foregoing.

Section 10.10   
No Reliance on any Agent's Customer Identification Program Certifications From Banks and Participants; USA PATRIOT
Act.


 


(a)               
Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees,
may rely on any Agent to carry out such Lender's, Affiliate's, participant's or assignee's customer identification program, or
other requirements imposed by the USA PATRIOT Act or the regulations issued thereunder, including the regulations set forth in
31 CFR § 103.121, as hereafter amended or replaced ("CIP Regulations"), or any other Anti-Terrorism
Laws, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any of the Loan Parties, their
Affiliates or their agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (1) any identity verification
procedures, (2) any recordkeeping, (3) comparisons with government lists, (4) customer notices or (5) other procedures required
under the CIP Regulations or other regulations issued under the USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender, Affiliate, participant or assignee
subject to Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act will perform the measures necessary to satisfy its own responsibilities under
the CIP Regulations.


 


(b)              
Each Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of
America or a state thereof (and is not excepted from the certification requirement contained in Section 313 of the USA PATRIOT
Act and the applicable regulations because it is both (i) an affiliate of a depository institution or foreign bank that maintains
a physical presence in the United States or foreign country, and (ii) subject to supervision by a banking authority regulating
such affiliated depository institution or foreign bank) shall deliver to each Agent the certification, or, if applicable, recertification,
certifying that such Lender is not a "shell" and certifying to other matters as required by Section 313 of the USA PATRIOT
Act and the applicable regulations: (1) within ten (10) days after the Effective Date, and (2) as such other times as are required
under the USA PATRIOT Act.


 


(c)               
The USA PATRIOT Act requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record certain information that identifies
individuals or business entities which open an "account" with such financial institution. Consequently, any Agent or
Lender may from time to time request, and each Loan Party shall provide to such Agent or Lender, such Loan Party's name, address,
tax identification number and/or such other identifying information as shall be necessary for such Agent or such Lender to comply
with the USA PATRIOT Act and any other Anti-Terrorism Law.


 


(d)              
Each Loan Party acknowledges that, pursuant to the provisions of Canadian Anti-Terrorism Laws, Agents and Lenders
may be required to obtain, verify and record information regarding each Loan Party, its respective directors, authorized signing
officers, direct or indirect shareholders or other Persons in control of such Loan Party, and the transactions contemplated hereby.
If an Agent has ascertained the identity of any Loan Party or any authorized signatories of any Loan Party for the purposes of
applicable Canadian Anti-Terrorism Laws, then such Agent:


 


(i)                
shall be deemed to have done so as an agent for each Lender, and this Agreement shall constitute a “written
agreement” in such regard between each Lender and the Agent within the meaning of applicable Canadian Anti-Terrorism Laws;
and


 






    	- 156 -



    


    

 


(ii)              
shall provide to each Lender copies of all information obtained in such regard without any representation or warranty
as to its accuracy or completeness.


 


Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section
and except as may otherwise be agreed in writing, each Lender agrees no Agent has any obligation to ascertain the identity of the
Loan Parties or any authorized signatories of the Loan Parties on behalf of any Lender, or to confirm the completeness or accuracy
of any information it obtains from the Loan Parties or any such authorized signatory in doing so.


 


Section 10.11   
No Third Party Beneficiaries. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Secured Parties
(except with respect to (i) the Borrowing Agent's consent right to the appointment of successor Agents under Section 10.07, (ii)
the retiring Agent's obligation to continue to hold Collateral as set forth in Section 10.07(b) and (ii) the Collateral Agent's
obligation to release liens under Section 10.08(b)), and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of
such provisions.


 


Section 10.12   
No Fiduciary Relationship. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term "agent" herein or
in any other Loan Document (or any other similar term) with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or
other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law (other than in the case of the Collateral
Agent as required in order to give effect to its appointment as trustee under the UK Security Documents). 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 10.13   
Reports; Confidentiality; Disclaimers. By becoming a party to this Agreement, each Lender:


 


(a)               
is deemed to have requested that each Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each
field audit or examination report and each appraisal and valuations report, if any, with respect to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries
(each, a "Report") prepared by or at the request of such Agent, and each Agent shall so furnish each Lender with each
such Report,


 


(b)              
expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Agents (i) do not make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy
of any Reports, and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Reports,


 


(c)               
expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that any Agent or
other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Parent and its Subsidiaries
and will rely significantly upon the Parent's and its Subsidiaries' books and records, as well as on representations of their personnel,


 


(d)              
agrees to keep all Reports and other material, non-public information regarding the Parent and its Subsidiaries and
their operations, assets, and existing and contemplated business plans in a confidential manner in accordance with Section 12.19,
and


 






    	- 157 -



    


    

 


(e)               
without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees: (i) to
hold any Agent and any other Lender preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or fail to take
or any conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any loans or other credit accommodations
that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to the Borrowers, or the indemnifying Lender's participation in, or the indemnifying
Lender's purchase of, a loan or loans of the Borrowers (including Letters of Credit), and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify,
defend and hold any Agent and any other Lender preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings,
damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including, attorneys' fees and costs) incurred by any such Agent and any such other
Lender preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through
the indemnifying Lender.

Article
XI



GUARANTY


 


Section 11.01   
Guaranty.


 


(a)               
Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when
due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all Obligations of the Borrowers, now or hereafter existing under
any Loan Document, whether for principal, interest (including, without limitation, all interest that accrues after the commencement
of any Insolvency Proceeding irrespective of whether a claim therefor is allowed in such case or proceeding), Letter of Credit
Obligations, fees, expenses or otherwise and whether accruing before or after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding (notwithstanding
the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the United States Bankruptcy Code), (such obligations, to the extent
not paid by the Borrowers, being the "Guaranteed Obligations"), and agrees to pay any and all expenses (including
reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Agents, the Lenders, the Bank Product Provider and the L/C Issuer (or any
of them) in enforcing any rights under the guaranty set forth in this Article XI.


 


(b)              
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor's liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute
part of the applicable Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by the Borrowers to the Agents, the Lenders, the Bank Product Providers
and the L/C Issuer (as applicable) under any Loan Document but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to
the existence of an Insolvency Proceeding involving the Borrowers. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Guaranteed Obligations
shall not include any Excluded Hedge Liabilities. In no event shall the obligation of any Guarantor hereunder exceed the maximum
amount such Guarantor could guarantee under any Debtor Relief Law.


 


Section 11.02   
Guaranty Absolute. Each Guarantor jointly and severally guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be
paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in
effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Agents or the Lenders with respect thereto. Each Guarantor
agrees that this Article XI constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection and waives any right to require that
any resort be made by any Agent or any Lender to any Collateral. The obligations of each Guarantor under this Article XI are independent
of the Guaranteed Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor to enforce
such obligations, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any Loan Party or whether any Loan Party is joined in any
such action or actions. The liability of each Guarantor under this Article XI shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional
irrespective of, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now or hereafter have in any way relating to,
any or all of the following:


 






    	- 159 -



    


    

 


(a)       any

Obligations owing to it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect
thereof granted such Lender herein or otherwise, in each case as provided in Section 12.07.


 


Section 11.05   
Subrogation. Unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations or and all other amounts payable under this

that it may now or hereafter acquire against any Loan Party or any other guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance
or enforcement of such Guarantor's obligations under this Article XI, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation,
reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Secured
Parties against any Loan Party or any other guarantor or any Collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity
or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from any Loan Party or any
other guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security solely
on account of such claim, remedy or right. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding
sentence or Section 7.02(m)(ii), such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith
be paid to the Secured Parties to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, and all other amounts payable under this
Article XI, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or to be held as Collateral for, any
Guaranteed Obligations, or other amounts payable under this Article XI thereafter arising. If (i) any Guarantor shall make payment
to the Secured Parties of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts
payable under this Article XI shall be Paid In Full and (iii) the Final Maturity Date shall have occurred, the Secured Parties

without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed
Obligations resulting from such payment by such Guarantor.

Section 12.05   
Right of Set-off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, any Agent or any
Lender may, and is hereby authorized to, at any time and from time to time, without notice to any Loan Party (any such notice being
expressly waived by the Loan Parties) and to the fullest extent permitted by law, set off and apply any and all deposits (general

Lender or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all obligations

and each Lender agrees to notify such Loan Party promptly after any such set-off and application made by such Agent or such Lender
or any of their respective Affiliates provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off
and application. The rights of the Agents and the Lenders under this Section 12.05 are in addition to the other rights and remedies
(including other rights of set-off) which the Agents and the Lenders may have under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents

portions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.


 


Section 12.07   
Assignments and Participations.


 


(a)               
This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Loan Party and
each Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that none of the Loan
Parties may assign or transfer any of its rights hereunder or under the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent
of each Lender and any such assignment without the Lenders' prior written consent shall be null and void.


 


(b)              
Each Lender may (x) with the written consent of the Collateral Agent, assign to one or more other lenders or
other entities all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to all or a portion of its Term
Loan Commitment and any Term Loan made by it and (y) with the written consent of each Agent, assign to one or more other lenders
or other entities all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to all or a portion of its Revolving
Credit Commitment and the Revolving Loans made by it; provided, however, that (i) such assignment is in an amount
which is at least $2,500,000 or a multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or the remainder of such Lender's Commitment) (except
such minimum amount shall not apply to an assignment by a Lender to (x) a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or a Related
Fund of such Lender or (y) a group of new Lenders, each of whom is an Affiliate or Related Fund of each other to the extent
the aggregate amount to be assigned to all such new Lenders is at least $2,500,000 or a multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof),
(ii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent, for
its acceptance, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with any promissory note subject to such assignment and such parties shall
deliver to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, a processing and recordation fee of $5,000 (except the
payment of such fee shall not be required in connection with an assignment by a Lender to a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender
or a Related Fund of such Lender or if otherwise waived by the Collateral Agent), (iii) no written consent of the Collateral

Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights
and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Section 12.07(b), a Lender may assign any or all of its rights under the Loan Documents to an Affiliate of such Lender
or a Related Fund of such Lender without delivering an Assignment and Acceptance to the Agents or to any other Person (a "Related
Party Assignment"); provided, however, that (I) the Borrowing Agent and the Administrative Agent may continue to
deal solely and directly with such assigning Lender until an Assignment and Acceptance has been delivered to the Administrative
Agent for recordation on the Register, (II) the Collateral Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with such assigning Lender
until receipt by the Collateral Agent of a copy of the fully executed Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to Section 12.07(e), (III) the
failure of such assigning Lender to deliver an Assignment and Acceptance to the Agents shall not affect the legality, validity,
or binding effect of such assignment, and (IV) an Assignment and Acceptance between the assigning Lender and an Affiliate of such
Lender or a Related Fund of such Lender shall be effective as of the date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance and recordation
on the Related Party Register referred to in the last sentence of Section 12.07(d) below.

to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance,
the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties
or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the execution, legality, validity,

by any Loan Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such
assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other documents
and information it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance;

(d)              
The Administrative Agent shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain,
or cause to be maintained at the Payment Office, a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a
register (the "Register") for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of,
and the principal amount of the Loans (and stated interest thereon) and Letter of Credit Obligation owing to each Lender from time
to time. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 12.07(d), the entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for
all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded
in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the
Borrowing Agent and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. This Section 12.07(d)
shall be construed so that the Loans and Commitments are at all times maintained in "registered form" within the meaning
of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2), and 881(c)(2) of the Code. In the case of an assignment pursuant to the last sentence of Section 12.07(b)
as to which an Assignment and Acceptance is not delivered to the Administrative Agent, (i) the assigning Lender shall, acting solely
for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain, or cause to be maintained, a register (each, a "Related
Party Register") comparable to the Register on behalf of the Borrowers, (ii) the entries in each Related Party Register
shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat
each Person whose name is recorded in such Related Party Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and
(iii) each Related Party Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowing Agent and any Lender at any reasonable time
and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.


 


(e)               
Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of a completed Assignment and Acceptance, and subject to any consent required
from the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 12.07(b) which consent of the Collateral Agent must be
evidenced by the Collateral Agent's execution of an acceptance to such Assignment and Acceptance), the Administrative Agent shall
accept such assignment, record the information contained therein in the Register and provide to the Collateral Agent a copy of
the fully executed Assignment and Acceptance.


 


(f)

(g)              
In the event that any Lender sells participations in a Loan, such Lender shall, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary
agent on behalf of the Borrowers, maintain, or cause to be maintained, a register, on which it enters the name of all participants
in the Loans held by it and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of the Loan that is the subject of
the participation (the "Participant Register"). A Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same)
may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant Register (and each registered
note shall expressly so provide). Any participation of such Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be
effected only by the registration of such participation on the Participant Register, which shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. The Participant Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowing Agent and any Lender at any reasonable time
and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Participant Register shall be maintained in registered form within the
meaning of Section 5f.103-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations.

(h)              
Any Foreign Lender who purchases or is assigned or participates in any portion of a Loan shall comply with Sections
2.09(e) and 2.09(h).


 


(i)                
Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in or to all or a portion of its rights
and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitments,
the Loans made by it and its Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Obligations); provided that (i) such Lender's obligations under
this Agreement (including without limitation, its Commitments hereunder) and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged; (ii)
such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and the Borrowers,
the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights
and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and (iii) a participant shall not be entitled to require such
Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except (A) action directly effecting an extension of the maturity dates or
decrease in the principal amount of the Loans or Letter of Credit Obligations, (B) action directly effecting an extension of the
due dates or a decrease in the rate of interest payable on the Loans or the fees payable under this Agreement, or (C) actions directly
effecting a release of all or a substantial portion of the Collateral or any Loan Party (except as set forth in Section 10.08 of
this Agreement or any other Loan Document).


 


(j)                
Borrowers agree that each participant in a Loan and each assignee in a Related Party Assignment that has not become
a Lender with respect to the assigned interest shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.09 (subject to the requirements and
limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.09(e) (it being understood that the documentation required from
the participant or assignee under Section 2.09(e) shall be provided in the first instance to the Person through whom such participation
or assigned interest is held)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired the relevant interest in the Loan by
assignment under Section 12.07(b) (other than a Related Party Assignment); provided that such participant or assignee (i) agrees
to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.09 as if it were a Lender that was an assignee under Section 12.07(b) and (ii) shall
not be entitled to receive any greater benefit than the applicable Lender would have received if such participation or assignment
had been effected as an assignment pursuant to Section 12.07(b).


 


(k)              
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 or loans
made to such Lender pursuant to securitization or similar credit facility (a "Securitization"); 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. The Loan Parties shall cooperate with such Lender and its Affiliates to effect the
Securitization including, without limitation, by providing such information as may be reasonably requested by such Lender in connection
with the rating of its Loans or the Securitization.


 


Section 12.08   
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto
in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one
and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or electronic mail shall be equally
as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of
this Agreement by telefacsimile or electronic mail also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the
failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement.
The foregoing shall apply to each other Loan Document mutatis mutandis.

with an office on the date hereof at 84 October Hill Road, Holliston, MA 01746, as its agent to receive on behalf of each Foreign
Loan Party service of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any action or proceeding described

consents to the service of process out of the said courts by mailing copies thereof by registered United States air mail postage
prepaid to it at its address specified in Section 12.01. Nothing in this Section 12.10 shall affect the right of any Secured Party

by the laws of any such jurisdiction.

Party repays all or part of such amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having
jurisdiction over such Agent, such Secured Party or any of its property, or (ii) any good faith settlement or compromise of any
such claim effected by such Secured Party with any such claimant, then and in such event each Loan Party agrees that (A) any such
judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon it notwithstanding the cancellation of any Indebtedness
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or the termination of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and (B) it shall
be and remain liable to such Agent, such Secured Party hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if

attorneys, consultants and agents (collectively called the "Indemnitees") from and against any and all losses,
damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, fees, reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys'

preparation, execution or performance or enforcement of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or of any other document executed
in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) any Agent's or any Lender's furnishing of funds to

directors, officers, employees, partners or other representatives, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court
of competent jurisdiction, (x) a material breach of any obligations under any Loan Document by such Indemnitee or of any of its

(b)              
The indemnification for all of the foregoing losses, damages, fees, costs and expenses of the Indemnitees set forth
in this Section 12.15 are chargeable against the Loan Account. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless
set forth in this Section 12.15 may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, each Loan Party shall,
jointly and severally, contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law, to the payment
and satisfaction of all Indemnified Matters incurred by the Indemnitees.


 


(c)               
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereby

This Section 12.15 shall not apply with respect to Taxes, other than Taxes that represent Losses arising from any

Section 12.16   
Records. The unpaid principal of and interest on the Loans, the interest rate or rates applicable to such
unpaid principal and interest, the duration of such applicability, the Commitments, and the accrued and unpaid fees payable pursuant
to Section 2.06 hereof, including, without limitation, the fees set forth in the Fee Letter, the Unused Line Fee, the Letter of
Credit Fee and the Applicable Prepayment Premium, shall at all times be ascertained from the records of the Agents, which shall
be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.


 


Section 12.17   
Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by each Loan Party,
each Agent and each Lender and when the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.01 hereof have been satisfied or waived in
writing by the Agents, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Loan Party, each Secured Party, and
their respective successors and assigns, except that the Loan Parties shall not have the right to assign their rights hereunder
or any interest herein without the prior written consent of each Agent and each Lender, and any assignment by any Lender shall
be governed by Section 12.07 hereof.


 


Section 12.18   
Highest Lawful Rate. It is the intention of the parties hereto that each Agent and each Lender shall conform
strictly to usury laws applicable to it. Accordingly, if the transactions contemplated hereby or by any other Loan Document would
be usurious as to any Agent or any Lender under laws applicable to it (including the laws of the United States of America and the
State of New York or any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable to such Agent or such Lender notwithstanding
the other provisions of this Agreement), then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any
other Loan Document or any agreement entered into in connection with or as security for the Obligations, it is agreed as follows:
(i) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under law applicable to any Agent or any Lender that is contracted
for, taken, reserved, charged or received by such Agent or such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or agreements
or otherwise in connection with the Obligations shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable
law, any excess shall be canceled automatically and if theretofore paid shall be credited by such Agent or such Lender on the principal
amount of the Obligations (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Obligations shall have been or would thereby be Paid
In Full, refunded by such Agent or such Lender, as applicable, to the Borrowers); and (ii) in the event that the maturity of the
Obligations is accelerated by reason of any Event of Default under this Agreement or otherwise, or in the event of any required
or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest under law applicable to any Agent or any Lender may
never include more than the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and excess interest, if any, provided for in this Agreement
or otherwise shall, subject to the last sentence of this Section 12.18, be canceled automatically by such Agent or such Lender,
as applicable, as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited by such Agent or such
Lender, as applicable, on the principal amount of the Obligations (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Obligations
shall have been or would thereby be Paid In Full, refunded by such Agent or such Lender to the Borrowers). All sums paid or agreed
to be paid to any Agent or any Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of sums due hereunder shall, to the extent permitted
by law applicable to such Agent or such Lender, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of the Loans
until Payment In Full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of any Loans hereunder does not exceed the maximum amount
allowed by such applicable law. If at any time and from time to time (x) the amount of interest payable to any Agent or any Lender
on any date shall be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Agent or such Lender pursuant to this Section 12.18
and (y) in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to such Agent or
such Lender would be less than the amount of interest payable to such Agent or such Lender computed at the Highest Lawful Rate
applicable to such Agent or such Lender, then the amount of interest payable to such Agent or such Lender in respect of such subsequent
interest computation period shall continue to be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Agent or such Lender until
the total amount of interest payable to such Agent or such Lender shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been
payable to such Agent or such Lender if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to this Section 12.18.


 






    	- 175 -



    


    

 


For purposes of this Section 12.18, the term "applicable
law" shall mean that law in effect from time to time and applicable to the loan transaction between the Borrowers, on the
one hand, and the Agents and the Lenders, on the other, that lawfully permits the charging and collection of the highest permissible,
lawful non-usurious rate of interest on such loan transaction and this Agreement, including laws of the State of New York and,
to the extent controlling, laws of the United States of America.


 


The right to accelerate the maturity of the Obligations
does not include the right to accelerate any interest that has not accrued as of the date of acceleration.


 


Section 12.19   
Confidentiality. Each Secured Party agrees (on behalf of itself and each of its affiliates, directors, officers,
employees and representatives) to use reasonable precautions to keep confidential, in accordance with its customary procedures
for handling confidential information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound practices of comparable commercial finance
companies, any non-public information supplied to it by the Loan Parties pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
(and which at the time is not, and does not thereafter become, publicly available or available to such Person from another source
not known to be subject to a confidentiality obligation to such Person not to disclose such information), provided that nothing
herein shall limit the disclosure by any Agent or any Lender of any such information (i) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates'
respective equity holders (including, without limitation, partners), directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, counsel,
advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential
nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential in accordance with this Section 12.19); (ii) to
any other party hereto; (iii) to parties involved in such Secured Party's Securitization; or (iv) to any assignee or
participant (or prospective assignee or participant) or any party to a Securitization so long as such assignee or participant (or
prospective assignee or participant) or party to a Securitization first agrees, in writing, to be bound by confidentiality provisions
similar in substance to this Section 12.19; (v) to the extent required by any Requirement of Law or judicial process or as
otherwise requested by any Governmental Authority; (vi) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar
organization, any examiner, auditor or accountant or any nationally recognized rating agency or otherwise to the extent consisting
of general portfolio information that does not identify Loan Parties; (vii) in connection with any litigation to which any
Agent or any Lender is a party; (vii) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document
or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder;
or (viii) with the consent of the Borrowing Agent. Each Secured Party agrees, prior to any disclosure under clause (iv) or (vi)
above to (A) any Governmental Authority that does not have supervisory, regulatory or other similar authority with respect
to such Secured Party and that is seeking such disclosure solely in connection with an investigation, action, suit or other proceeding
that does not otherwise involve such Secured Party or (B) any other Person that is not a Governmental Authority, to use reasonable
efforts to notify the Borrowing Agent of any request for the disclosure of any such confidential information so as to provide the
Borrowing Agent with a reasonable opportunity to obtain a protective order or other comparable relief, provided that the
failure to so notify the Borrowing Agent shall not expose any Secured Party to any liability.


 






    	- 176 -



    


    

 


Section 12.20   
Public Disclosure. Each Loan Party agrees that neither it nor any of its Affiliates will now or in the future
issue any press release or other public disclosure using the name of an Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates
or referring to this Agreement or any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of such Agent or such Lender, except
to the extent that such Loan Party or such Affiliate is required to do so under applicable law (in which event, such Loan Party
or such Affiliate will consult with such Agent or such Lender before issuing such press release or other public disclosure). Each
Loan Party hereby authorizes each Agent and each Lender, after consultation with the Borrowers, to advertise the closing of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and to make appropriate announcements of the financial arrangements entered into among
the parties hereto, as such Agent or such Lender shall deem appropriate, including, without limitation, on a home page or similar
place for dissemination of information on the Internet or worldwide web, or in announcements commonly known as tombstones, in such
trade publications, business journals, newspapers of general circulation and to such selected parties as such Agent or such Lender
shall deem appropriate.


 


Section 12.21   
Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, reflects the entire understanding of
the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not be contradicted or qualified by any other agreement,
oral or written, before the date hereof.


 


Section 12.22   
USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act hereby notifies the
Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that
identifies the entities composing the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of each such entity and other
information that will allow such Lender to identify the entities composing the Borrowers in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.
Each Loan Party agrees to take such action and execute, acknowledge and deliver at its sole cost and expense, such instruments
and documents as any Lender may reasonably require from time to time in order to enable such Lender to comply with the USA PATRIOT
Act.


 


Section 12.23   
Keepwell. Each Loan Party, if it is a Qualified ECP Loan Party, then jointly and severally, together with
each other Qualified ECP Loan Party, hereby absolutely unconditionally and irrevocably (a) guarantees the prompt payment and performance
of all Swap Obligations owing by each Non-Qualifying Party (it being understood and agreed that this guarantee is a guaranty of
payment and not of collection), and (b) undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by
any Non-Qualifying Party to honor all of such Non-Qualifying Party's obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document
in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Loan Party shall only be liable under
this Section 12.23 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under
this Section 12.23, or otherwise under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, voidable under applicable law, including applicable
law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified
ECP Loan Party under this Section 12.23 shall remain in full force and effect until Payment In Full (or written release and discharge)
of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Qualified ECP Loan Party intends that this
Section 12.23 constitute, and this Section 12.23 shall be deemed to constitute, a guarantee of the obligations of, and a "keepwell,
support, or other agreement" for the benefit of each other Borrower and Guarantor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II)
of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Section 12.24   
Section Headings. Headings and numbers have been set forth herein for convenience only. Unless the contrary
is compelled by the context, everything contained in each Section applies equally to this entire Agreement.


 


Section 12.25         
Judgment CurrencySection 12.26. This is an international financial transaction
in which the specification of a currency and payment in New York is of the essence. Dollars shall be the currency of account in
the case of all payments pursuant to or arising under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, and all such payments shall
be made to the Administrative Agent's Account in New York in immediately available funds. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law, the obligations of each Loan Party to the Secured Parties under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents shall not
be discharged by any amount paid in any other currency or in a place other than to the Administrative Agent's Account in New York
to the extent that the amount so paid after conversion under this Agreement and transfer to New York does not yield the amount
of Dollars in New York due under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment
in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency (the "Other Currency"),
to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which the Administrative Agent could,
in accordance with normal procedures, purchase Dollars with the Other Currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final
judgment is given. The obligation of each Loan Party in respect of any such sum due from it to the Secured Parties hereunder shall,
notwithstanding any judgment in such Other Currency, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day immediately following
the date on which the Administrative Agent receives any sum adjudged to be so due in the Other Currency, the Administrative Agent
may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase Dollars with the Other Currency. If the Dollars so purchased are less
than the sum originally due to the Secured Parties in Dollars, each Loan Party agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding
any such judgment, to indemnify the Secured Parties against such loss, and if the Dollars so purchased exceed the sum originally
due to the Secured Parties in Dollars, the Secured Parties agrees to remit to the Loan Parties such excess.

proceeding, from jurisdiction of any court or from set-off or any legal process (whether service of process or notice, attachment
prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) with respect to itself or any
of its property, such Loan Party hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, such immunity in respect of (a) its obligations under the Loan Documents, (b) any legal proceedings to enforce such obligations
and (c) any legal proceedings to enforce any judgment rendered in any proceedings to enforce such obligations. Each Loan Party
