Loans

draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein proving to be untrue or inaccurate in any respect,
(iii) payment by an Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any
other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a
right of setoff against, Borrower's obligations hereunder. Neither the Agents, the Lenders or any Issuing Bank nor any of their Related Parties shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of
or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding

required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuing Bank; providedthat the foregoing shall
not be construed to excuse such Issuing Bank from liability to Borrower to the extent of any direct or actual damages
(as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by Borrower that are
caused by such Issuing Bank's failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto
expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be
deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which
appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without
responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict
compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g)Disbursement Procedures.An Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all
documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Canadian Administrative Agent and Borrower by telephone (confirmed by
telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder;providedthat any failure to
give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

(h)Interim Interest.If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless Borrower shall reimburse
such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but
excluding the date that Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to Canadian Prime Loans or USBR Loans as applicable; providedthat, if Borrower fails to reimburse
such LC Disbursement within two (2) Business Days after such reimbursement is due pursuant to paragraph (e)of this Section, thenSection 2.12(c)shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant
to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that

17

---



interest
accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant toparagraph (e)of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be
for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i)Cash Collateralization.If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that
Borrower receives notice from the Global Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Lenders with LC
Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Canadian
Administrative Agent, in the name of the Canadian Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash (in the applicable Currency) equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus
any accrued and unpaid interest thereon;providedthat the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such
deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to Borrower described in Section 8.1(g).
Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required bySection 2.10, and any such cash collateral so deposited and held by the Canadian Administrative Agent hereunder shall constitute part of the
Global Borrowing Base for purposes of determining compliance withSection 2.10. Each such deposit shall be held by the Canadian Administrative
Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement. The Canadian Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the
exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Canadian
Administrative Agent and at Borrower's risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such
account shall be applied by the Canadian Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held
for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC
Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement. If Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash
collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to Borrower within three (3) Business Days
after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.10, such amount (to the extent not applied as
aforesaid) shall be returned to Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect
to such return, Borrower would remain in compliance withSection 2.10and no Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, Toronto time, to
the account of the Canadian Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders, which Loan shall be in the appropriate Currency (based on the relevant
Borrowing Request). The Canadian Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of Borrower maintained with
the Canadian Administrative Agent in Toronto;providedthat Canadian Prime Loans and/or USBR Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC
Disbursement as provided inSection 2.4(e)shall be remitted by the Canadian Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank.

(b)   Unless
the Canadian Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to
the Canadian Administrative Agent such Lender's share of such Borrowing, the Canadian Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a)

18

---



of
this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing
available to the Canadian Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and Borrower severally agree to pay to the Canadian Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with
interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Canadian Administrative Agent, at (i) in the
case of such Lender, the greater of the costs incurred by the Canadian Administrative Agent for making such Lender's share of such Borrowing or a rate determined by the Canadian Administrative Agent
in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Loans made in such Borrowing. If such Lender pays such
amount to the Canadian Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in such Borrowing.

(c)   Borrowings,
conversion or continuations of Loans, and prepayments of Loans of different Currencies at the same time hereunder shall be deemed to be separate Borrowings,
continuations, conversions and prepayments, respectively, one for each Currency.

SECTION
2.6.Interest Elections.

(a)   Borrower
may elect to convert a Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods
therefor, all as provided in this Section. Borrower may, subject to the requirements ofSection 2.2(c), elect different options with respect to
different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each
such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

(b)   To
make an election pursuant to this Section, Borrower shall notify the Global Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent of such election by telephone
by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required underSection 2.3if Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such
election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the
Global Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request executed by an Authorized Officer of Borrower, substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2or
otherwise in a form approved by the Global Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent.

(c)   Each
telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.2:



If
any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's
duration.

(d)   Promptly
following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender's
portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e)   If
Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then,
unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to a USBR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Global Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, at the request of the Majority Lenders, so notifies Borrower, then, so long as such
Event of Default is continuing, (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless the Indebtedness has been accelerated pursuant to Section 8.3, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to a USBR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION
2.7.    [Intentionally omitted.]

SECTION
2.8.Termination and Reduction of Commitments.

(a)   Unless
previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.

(b)   Borrower
may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments;providedthat (i) each reduction
of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of U.S.$1,000,000 and not less than U.S.$5,000,000 and (ii) Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if,
after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance withSection 2.10, the aggregate Credit Exposure of the Lenders would
exceed the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders.

(c)   Borrower
shall notify the Global Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b)of this Section at least two
(2) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such
election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by Borrower
pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable;providedthat a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by Borrower may state that such notice
is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by Borrower (by notice to the Global Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative
Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Subject to the rights of Borrower underSection 2.21, any
termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among each of the Lenders in accordance with each such Lender's Applicable
Percentage.

SECTION
2.9.Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a)   Borrower
hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Canadian Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Loan and
Borrowing of such Lender on the Maturity Date.

(b)   Each
Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan

(d)   The
entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant toparagraphs (b)or (c)of this Section shall beprima facieevidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations
recorded therein;providedthat the failure of any Lender or the Canadian Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not
in any manner affect the obligation of Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e)   Any
Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by one or more promissory notes. In such event, Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender
promissory notes payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns and in a form approved by the Global Administrative Agent and the
Canadian Administrative Agent). Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory notes and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.4) be represented
by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if any such
promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

SECTION
2.10.Prepayment of Loans.

(a)   Borrower
shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to the requirements of this Section. Borrower shall

(ii) as a result thereof, either a Global Borrowing Base Deficiency or a Canadian Borrowing Base Deficiency occurs, then Borrower shall take the following actions:



21

---







(c)   Borrower
shall notify the Global Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder
(i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., Toronto time, two Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of prepayment
of a Canadian Prime Borrowing or USBR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Toronto time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date
and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid (which amount shall be in a minimum principal amount of U.S.$2,000,000 or C$2,000,000, as the case may be (or the aggregate
amount of the Obligations hereunder at such time, if a lesser amount), and in U.S.$1,000,000 or C$1,000,000 increments in excess thereof (or such other lesser amount in excess thereof in the event
that prepayment is with respect to all Obligations hereunder));providedthat, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional
notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated bySection 2.8, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of
termination is revoked in accordance withSection 2.8.

22

---



Promptly
following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing
shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided inSection 2.2. Each
prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12and by
any other amounts then due under this Agreement (including all amounts due underSection 2.16).

(a)   Borrower
agrees to pay to the Canadian Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee (the "Commitment
Fee"), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate for Commitment Fees on the daily amount equal to the Applicable Percentage of such Lender of the Unutilized Commitment during
the period from and including the Global Effective Date to but excluding the date on which the Commitments terminate. Accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March,
June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date of this Agreement; providedthat any Commitment
Fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All Commitment Fees shall be

(b)   Borrower
agrees to pay (i) to the Canadian Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters
of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate as interest on Eurodollar Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender's Applicable Percentage of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion
thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the date of this Agreement to but excluding the later of the date on which the Commitments terminate and the
date on which the Lenders cease to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank a fronting fee equal to the greater of (A) U.S.$500 or C$500, depending on the Currency in which the
relevant Letter of Credit is denominated, and (B) the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC
Disbursements), which LC Exposure will be converted to an Equivalent Amount with respect to Letters of Credit which are denominated in Canadian Dollars, during the period from and including the date
of this Agreement to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Bank's standard fees with
respect to the administration, issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees shall be payable in arrears

date on which the Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the
Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within ten (10) days after demand. All participation
fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(c)   Borrower
agrees to pay to the Global Administrative Agent and/or the Arranger, for its own account and for the account of each Lender, as applicable, fees, including,

(d)   Unless
otherwise set forth herein, all fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars, to the Global
Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent (or the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it, or the Arranger, in the case of the Upfront Fee), as the case may be, for
distribution, in the case of Commitment Fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.12.Interest.

(a)   Subject
toSections 2.12(f),(g)and (h)andSection 10.13,
the Loans comprising each Canadian Prime Borrowing shall bear interest at
the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Rate for Canadian Prime Loans, and Loans comprising each USBR Borrowing shall bear interest at the USBR plus the Applicable Rate for U.S. Base Rate Loans.

(b)   Subject
toSections 2.12(f),(g)and (h)andSection 10.13,
the Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the
LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate for Eurodollar Loans.

(c)   Notwithstanding
the foregoing, but subject toSections 2.12(f), (g)and(h)andSection 10.13, if any principal
of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear
interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the
preceding paragraphs of this Sectionplus, to the extent permitted by applicable law, 2% or (ii) in the case of any other amount, the rate
applicable to Canadian Prime Loans as provided inparagraph (a)of this Sectionplus, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, 2%.

(d)   Subject
toSections 2.12(f),(g)and (h)andSection 10.13,
accrued interest on each Loan (other than a Loan consisting of the
acceptance of a Bankers' Acceptance) shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the Commitments; providedthat (i) interest accrued pursuant toparagraph (c)of this Section shall be
payable on demand of the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders (through the Canadian Administrative Agent), (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued
interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end

(e)   Subject
toSections 2.12(f),(g)and (h)andSection 10.13,
all interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of
360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Canadian Prime Rate or the U.S. Base Rate and interest associated with BA Loans shall be computed on the basis of a year of
365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable
Canadian Prime Rate, U.S. Base Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Canadian Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(f)    To
the extent permitted by applicable law, any provision of theInterest Act (Canada)or the Judgment Interest Act (Alberta)which restricts any rate of
interest set forth herein shall be inapplicable to this Agreement and is hereby waived by
Borrower.

(g)   The
theory of deemed reinvestment shall not apply to the calculation of interest or payment of fees or other amounts hereunder, notwithstanding anything contained in
this Agreement, acceptance or other evidence of indebtedness or in any other Loan Document now or hereafter taken by any Agent or any Lender for the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, or
any other instrument referred to herein, and all interest and fees payable by Borrower to the Lenders, shall accrue from day

24

to
day, computed as described herein in accordance with the "nominal rate" method of interest calculation.

(h)   Where,
in this Agreement, a rate of interest or fees is to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year, such rate is, for the purpose of the Interest Act (Canada), equivalent to the said rate (i)
 multiplied by the actual number of days in the one year period beginning on the first day
of the period of calculation and (ii) divided by 360.

SECTION 2.13.Alternate Rate of Interest.If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a
Eurodollar Borrowing:

(a)   the
Canadian Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for
ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period;

(b)   the
Canadian Administrative Agent is advised by the Majority Lenders that the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such
Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; or

(c)   the
Canadian Administrative Agent determines in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank dollar
market generally, deposits in U.S. Dollars in the London interbank dollar market are not being offered for the applicable Interest Period and in an amount equal to the amount of the Eurodollar Loan
requested by Borrower,

then
the Canadian Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Canadian Administrative Agent
notifies Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or
continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing for the affected Interest Period shall be ineffective, and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing
shall be made as a Eurodollar Loan having the shortest Interest Period which is not unavailable under clauses (a) through (c) of this Section, and if no Interest Period is available, as a USBR
Borrowing.

SECTION 2.14.Illegality.

(a)   Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if (i) by reason of the adoption of any applicable Governmental Rule or any change in any
applicable Governmental Rule or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force
of law) of any central bank or other Governmental Authority or (ii) circumstances affecting the London interbank dollar market or the position of a Lender therein shall at any time make it
unlawful or impracticable in the sole discretion of a Lender exercised in good faith for such Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to (A) honor its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans either
generally or for a particular Interest Period provided for hereunder, or (B) maintain Eurodollar Loans either generally or for a particular Interest Period provided for hereunder, then such
Lender shall promptly notify Borrower thereof through the Canadian Administrative Agent and such Lender's obligation to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans having an affected Interest Period hereunder
shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain Eurodollar Loans having an affected Interest Period (in which case the provisions of Section 2.14(b)hereof shall be
applicable). Before giving such notice pursuant to this Section 2.14, such Lender will designate a different available Applicable Lending Office for the affected Eurodollar Loans of such Lender or
take
such other action as Borrower may request if such designation or action will avoid the need to suspend such Lender's obligation to make Eurodollar Loans hereunder and will not, in the sole opinion of
such Lender exercised in good faith, be disadvantageous to such Lender (provided, that such Lender shall have no obligation so to designate an
Applicable Lending Office for Eurodollar Loans located in the United States of America).

25

---



(b)   If
the obligation of any Lender to make or maintain any Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 2.14(a)hereof, all Loans having an affected Interest Period which would otherwise be
made by such Lender as Eurodollar Loans shall be
made instead as USBR Loans (and, if such Lender so requests by notice to Borrower with a copy to the Global Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent, each Eurodollar Loan having an
affected Interest Period of such Lender then outstanding shall be automatically converted into a USBR Loan on the last day of the Interest Period for such Eurodollar Loans unless earlier conversion is
required by applicable law) and, to the extent that Eurodollar Loans are so made as (or converted into) USBR Loans, all payments of principal which would otherwise be applied to such Eurodollar Loans
shall be applied instead to such USBR Loans.

SECTION 2.15.Increased Costs.

(a)   If
any Change in Law shall:



and
the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan or BA Loan or Bankers' Acceptance (or of maintaining its obligation to
make any such Loan or BA Loan or Bankers' Acceptance) or to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or BA Loan or
Bankers' Acceptance, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then Borrower will pay to
such Lender or such Issuing Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b)   If
any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such
Lender's or such Issuing Bank's capital or on the capital of such Lender's or such Issuing Bank's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in
Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender's or such Issuing Bank's
holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's or such Issuing Bank's policies and the policies of such Lender's or such Issuing Bank's holding
company with respect to capital adequacy), then Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such
Issuing Bank or such Lender's or such Issuing Bank's holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c)   A
certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender's or such
Issuing Bank's holding company, as the case may be, as specified inparagraph (a)or(b)of this
Section shall be delivered to Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such
certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

(d)   Failure
or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's or such
Issuing Bank's right to demand such compensation;providedthat Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to
this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than

26

---



270 days
prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such
Lender's or such Issuing Bank's intention to claim compensation therefor;provided furtherthat, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased
costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.16.Break Funding Payments.In the event of (a) the payment (including prepayment) of
any principal of any Eurodollar Loan or BA Loan or Bankers' Acceptance other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default),
(b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan or BA Loan or Bankers' Acceptance other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert,
continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10(b)and is revoked in accordance
therewith), or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan or BA Loans or Bankers' Acceptances
other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by Borrower pursuant toSection 2.19then, in any
such event, Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed
to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred,
at the LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to
borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period
at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the London interbank
market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to Borrower, the Global Administrative Agent
and the Canadian Administrative Agent and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after
receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.17.Taxes.

(a)   Any
and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for
any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes;providedthat if Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments,
then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the Global
Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, each Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made,
(ii) Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law; providedthat if a
Lender is in breach of its representation and warranty underSection 2.17(e),
then Borrower shall only be obligated to comply with clauses (ii) and (iii) of thisSection 2.17(a)with respect to payments to be made to
such Lender.

(b)   In
addition, Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c)   Borrower
shall indemnify the Global Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank, within ten (10) days after written
demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Global Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case
may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of Borrower hereunder or under any other

27

Loan
Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising
therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; providedthat if a Lender is
in breach of its representation and warranty underSection 2.17(e),
then Borrower shall have no obligations under thisSection 2.17(c)with respect to any payments or liabilities described herein made or owed by
such Lender. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender or an Issuing Bank, or by either the Global Administrative Agent or the Canadian
Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)   As
soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority, if available, Borrower shall deliver to the Global
Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting
such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Global Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative Agent.

(e)   Each
Lender represents and warrants that it is not a Foreign Lender.

(f)    If
Borrower at any time pays an amount underSection 2.17(a),(b)or(c)to any Lender, the Global Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank, and such payee receives a refund of or
credit for any part of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes which such payee determines in its sole judgment is made with respect to such amount paid by Borrower, such Lender, the Global
Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall pay to such Borrower the amount of such refund or credit promptly, and in any event within
60 days, following the receipt of such refund or credit by such payee. Nothing in this Section shall require any Lender, the Global Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank to make available
its tax returns or any other information relating to its taxes that such Person deems confidential.

SECTION 2.18.Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.

(a)   Borrower
shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC
Disbursements, or of amounts payable underSection 2.15,2.16or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to the time
expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly
required, prior to 12:00 noon, Toronto time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds in the appropriate Currency, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after
such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Canadian Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All

Fax: 214-290-2332, except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Bank as expressly provided herein and payments pursuant to Sections 2.15,2.16,2.17(a), 2.17(c)and10.3shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to
other
Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. The Canadian Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the
appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. Except as set forth in clause (a) of the definition of "Interest Period", if any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day
that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall

28

---



be
extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under each Loan
Document shall be made in the appropriate Currency as required pursuant to the Loan Documents.

(b)   If
at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Canadian Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC
Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto
in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among
the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.

(c)   If
any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its
Loans or participations in LC Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and accrued
interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and
participations in LC Disbursements of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of
principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements;providedthat (i) if any such participations
are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without
interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or 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 LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to
Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under
applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such
participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d)   Unless
the Canadian Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Canadian Administrative Agent for
the account of the Lenders or an Issuing Bank hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment, the Canadian Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower has made such payment on such date in
accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or an Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such
payment, then each of the Lenders or each of the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Canadian Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such
Lender or such Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Global Administrative Agent, at
the greater of the costs incurred by the Canadian Administrative Agent for making such distributed amount and a rate determined by the Global Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry
rules on interbank compensation.

(e)   If
any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant toSection 2.4(d)or (e),2.5(b),2.18(d)or 10.3(c)then the Canadian Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any
amounts thereafter
received by the Canadian Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender's obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

SECTION 2.19.Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a)   If
any Lender requests compensation underSection 2.15, or if Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to
any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant toSection 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to
designate a different Applicable 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 toSection 2.15or 2.17, as
the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be
disadvantageous to such Lender. Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b)   If
(i) any Lender asserts that events have occurred suspending its obligation to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans under Section 2.14 when substantially
all other Lenders have not also done so, (ii) any Lender requests compensation underSection 2.15, (iii) Borrower is required to
pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant toSection 2.17, or (iv) any
Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Global
Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the terms ofSection 10.4),
all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); providedthat (1) Borrower shall have received the prior written consents of the Global Administrative Agent and the Canadian Administrative
Agent, which consents shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (2) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations
in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees)
or Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (3) the assignee and assignor shall have entered into an Assignment and Assumption, and (4) in the case of any such assignment resulting
from a claim for compensation underSection 2.15or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a
reduction in such compensation or payments.

SECTION 2.20.Currency Conversion and Currency Indemnity.

(a)Payments in Agreed Currency.Borrower shall make payment relative to any Obligation in the currency (the
"Agreed Currency") in which the Obligation was effected. If any payment is received on account of any Obligation in any currency (the
"Other Currency") other than the Agreed Currency (whether voluntarily or pursuant to an order or judgment or the enforcement thereof or the realization
of any Collateral or the liquidation of Borrower or otherwise howsoever), such payment shall constitute a discharge of the liability of Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in respect
of such obligation only to the extent of the amount of the Agreed Currency which the relevant Lender or Agent, as the case may be, is able to purchase with the amount of the Other Currency received by
it on the Business Day next following such receipt in accordance with its normal procedures and after deducting any premium and costs of exchange.

(b)Conversion of Agreed Currency into Judgment Currency.If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment
in any court in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into a particular currency (the "Judgment Currency") any amount due in the Agreed
Currency then the conversion shall be made on the basis of the rate of exchange prevailing on the next Business Day following the date such judgment is given and in any event Borrower shall be
obligated to pay the Agents and the Lenders any deficiency in accordance withSection 2.20(c). For the foregoing purposes "rate of exchange"
means the rate at which the relevant Lender or Agent, as applicable, in accordance with its

30

---



normal
banking procedures is able on the relevant date to purchase the Agreed Currency with the Judgment Currency after deducting any premium and costs of exchange.

(c)Circumstances Giving Rise to Indemnity.To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, if (i) any
Lender or any Agent receives any payment or payments on account of the liability of Borrower hereunder pursuant to any judgment or order in any Other Currency, and (ii) the amount of the Agreed
Currency which the relevant Lender or Agent, as applicable, is able to purchase on the Business Day next following such receipt with the proceeds of such payment or payments in accordance with its
normal procedures and after deducting any premiums and costs of exchange is less than the amount of the Agreed Currency due in respect of such liability immediately prior to such judgment or order,
then Borrower on demand shall, and Borrower hereby agrees to, indemnify the Lenders and the Agents from and against any loss, cost or expense arising out of or in connection with such deficiency.

(d)Indemnity Separate Obligation.To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the agreement of indemnity
provided for inSection 2.20(c)shall constitute an obligation separate and independent from all other obligations contained in this Agreement,
shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Lenders or Agents or any of them from time to time, and shall continue in full
force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due hereunder or under any judgment or order.

SECTION 2.21.Addition of Lenders and Increase in Commitments.It is agreed by the parties hereto that
one or more financial institutions acceptable to Canadian Forest, the Canadian Administrative Agent
and the Global Administrative Agent may become a Lender under this Agreement, with the consent of the Global Administrative Agent (as to the identity of the institution), by executing and delivering
to Canadian Forest, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Global Administrative Agent a certificate substantially in the form ofExhibit Bhereto (a "Lender Certificate"). Upon receipt and agreement by Borrower and the Global Administrative Agent (as to the identity of the institution) of
any such Lender Certificate, (a) the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders (including any Person that becomes a Lender by delivery of such a Lender Certificate) automatically
without further action by Borrower, the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Global Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be increased by the amount indicated in such Lender Certificate (but not in
excess of U.S.$1,800,000,000 in the aggregate for all such increases pursuant to this Section and the increases pursuant to Section 2.20 of the U.S. Credit Agreement) on the effective date set
forth in such Lender Certificate (such increased amount herein the "Increased Commitment Amount"), (b) the Register shall be amended to add such
Commitment of such additional Lender or to reflect the increase in the Commitment of an existing Lender, and the Applicable Percentages of the Lenders shall be adjusted accordingly to reflect the
additional Lender or the increase in the Commitment of an existing Lender, (c) any such additional Lender shall be deemed to be a party in all respects to this Agreement and any other Loan
Documents to which the Lenders are a party, and (d) upon the effective date set forth in such Lender Certificate, any such Lender party to the Lender Certificate shall purchase a pro rata
portion of the outstanding Credit Exposure of each of the current Lenders such that the Lenders (including any additional Lender, if applicable) shall have the appropriate portion of the aggregate
outstanding Credit Exposure of the Lenders (based in each case on such Lender's Applicable Percentage, as revised pursuant to this Section).

SECTION 2.22.Bankers' Acceptances.Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the
Commitments may be utilized, upon the request of Borrower, in addition to the Loans provided for bySection 2.2and the issuance of Letters of
Credit provided for bySection 2.4, for the acceptance by the Lenders of Bankers' Acceptances issued by Borrower, provided that in no event shall
(i) the aggregate amount of all Bankers' Acceptance Liabilities together with the Equivalent Amount in U.S. Dollars of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans (excluding Bankers'
Acceptances and BA Loans) and the aggregate amount of all LC Exposure exceed the lesser of (A) the aggregate amount of

31

---



the
Allocated Canadian Borrowing Base then in effect and (B) the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Lenders, and (ii) any Bankers' Acceptances have maturities of less than
30 days or more than 180 days from the Acceptance Date (and shall in no event mature on a date after the Maturity Date). Whenever Borrower is required to furnish a notice to the Canadian
Administrative Agent pursuant to the following additional provisions of this Section, it shall give a copy of such notice to the Global Administrative Agent. The following additional provisions shall
apply to Bankers' Acceptances:

(a)   In
order to facilitate and expedite the issuance and acceptance of Bankers' Acceptances hereunder, Borrower agrees to the terms and conditions of the Power of Attorney
with respect to the Bankers' Acceptance attached hereto asExhibit J.

(b)   When
Borrower wishes to make a Borrowing by way of Bankers' Acceptances, Borrower shall submit to the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Global Administrative Agent
prior written notice with respect to the issuance of the Bankers' Acceptances (such written notice a "Bankers' Acceptance Request") by not later than
1:00 p.m., Toronto time, two (2) Business Days' prior to the Acceptance Date. Each Bankers' Acceptance Request shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower. Borrower shall indemnify each
Lender against any loss or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure by Borrower to fulfill or honor before the date specified as the Acceptance Date, the applicable conditions set
forth inArticle IV, if, as a result of such failure the requested Bankers' Acceptance is not made on such date. Unless otherwise agreed among
the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Global Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the aggregate amount of all Bankers' Acceptances issued on any Acceptance Date hereunder shall be accepted pro rataby
all Lenders relative to their respective Applicable Percentage, rounded, upwards or downwards, as the case may be, to the nearest C$100,000.
Upon receipt of a Bankers' Acceptance Request, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the contents thereof.

(c)   Unless
Borrower has notified the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Global Administrative Agent in the Bankers' Acceptance Request that Borrower intends to arrange
the sale of the Bankers' Acceptances which are the subject of such Bankers' Acceptance Request (a "Borrower Arrangement"), on the Acceptance Date at
10:30 a.m., Toronto time, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall determine the Bankers' Acceptance Rate for each of the Accepting Lenders. Not later than 2:00 p.m., Toronto time, each
such Accepting Lender shall accept and purchase its share of the Bankers' Acceptances that are issued and shall make available to the Canadian Administrative Agent, in accordance with Section 2.5,
the BA Net Proceeds of the purchase of Bankers' Acceptances on such day by such Lender. The Canadian Administrative Agent shall
transfer to the applicable Borrower those BA Net Proceeds of the Bankers' Acceptances and shall notify such Borrower and each such Lender by facsimile or telephone (if by telephone, to be confirmed
subsequently in writing) of the details of the issue, pursuant to a notice in substantially the form attached hereto asExhibit M. Each Accepting
Lender may at any time and from time to time hold, sell, rediscount or otherwise dispose of any or all Bankers' Acceptances accepted and purchased by it.

On
the Acceptance Date, such Borrower shall pay each Accepting Lender and each Lender providing a BA Loan a Stamping Fee with respect to each Bankers' Acceptance and each BA Loan and
each Lender is hereby authorized to deduct such Stamping Fee prior to remitting the BA Net Proceeds to the Canadian Administrative Agent.

For
each Bankers' Acceptance or BA Loan, the Stamping Fee payable by such Borrower shall be the product obtained by multiplying:



32

---





and
prorating that product for the number of days in the term from and including the Acceptance Date to but not including the BA Maturity Date of that Bankers' Acceptance or the Interest Period for
the BA Loan, as the case may be, on the basis of a year of 365 days.

(d)   [Intentionally
omitted.]

(e)   On
each day during the period commencing with the issuance by Borrower of any Bankers' Acceptance and until such Bankers' Acceptance Liability shall have been paid by
Borrower, the Commitment of each Accepting Lender that is able to extend credit by way of Bankers' Acceptances shall be deemed to be utilized for all purposes of this Agreement in an amount equal to
the Principal Amount of such Bankers' Acceptance.

The
Commitment of any Lender providing a BA Loan rather than Bankers' Acceptances shall be deemed utilized during this period in an amount equal to the Principal Amount of such BA Loan.

(f)    Borrower
agrees to pay on the BA Maturity Date for each Bankers' Acceptance, to the Canadian Administrative Agent for account of each Accepting Lender, an amount equal
to the Bankers' Acceptance Liability for such Bankers' Acceptance.

Each
Borrower hereby waives presentment for payment of Bankers' Acceptances by the Accepting Lenders and any defense to payment of amounts due to an Accepting Lender in respect of a
Bankers' Acceptance which might exist by reason of such Bankers' Acceptance being held at maturity by the Accepting Lender which accepted it and agrees not to claim from such Lenders any days of grace
for the payment at maturity of Bankers' Acceptances.

(g)   In
the event any Borrower fails to notify the Canadian Administrative Agent in writing not later than 1:00 p.m., Toronto time, on the Business Day prior to any BA
Maturity Date that such Borrower intends to pay with Borrower's own funds the Bankers' Acceptance Liabilities due on such BA Maturity Date or fails to make such payment, such Borrower shall be deemed
for all purposes to have given the Canadian Administrative Agent notice of a borrowing of a Canadian Prime Loan pursuant toSection 2.3for an
amount equal to the Principal Amount of such Bankers' Acceptances;providedthat:



(h)   If,
in the sole judgment of a Lender, such Lender is unable, as a result of applicable law or customary market practice, to extend credit by way of Bankers' Acceptance
in accordance with this Agreement, such Lender shall give notice to such effect to the Canadian Administrative Agent and Borrower prior to 1:00 p.m., Toronto time, on the date of the requested
credit extension (which notice

33

---



may,
if so stated therein, remain in effect with respect to subsequent requests for extension of credit by way of Bankers' Acceptance until revoked by notice to the Global Administrative Agent, the
Canadian Administrative Agent and Borrower) and shall make available to the Canadian Administrative Agent, in accordance withSection 2.1hereof
prior to 2:00 p.m., Toronto time, on the date of such requested credit extension a Canadian Dollar loan (a "BA Loan") in the Principal Amount
equal to such Lender's Applicable Percentage of the total amount of credit requested to be extended by way of Bankers' Acceptances. The Stamping Fee for that BA Loan shall be calculated on that
Principal Amount. Such BA Loan shall have an Interest Period equal to the term of the Bankers' Acceptances for which it is a substitute and shall bear interest throughout such Interest Period
applicable to that BA Loan at a rate per annum equal to the Bankers' Acceptance Rate for such Bankers' Acceptances. On the maturity date of the Bankers' Acceptances issued concurrently with the
advance of the BA Loan, Borrower shall pay to each Lender which made a BA Loan, in satisfaction of the BA Loan and accrued interest thereon, an amount equal to the Principal Amount of such BA Loan,
failing which such Principal Amount shall be converted to a Canadian Prime Loan. The amount of the proceeds of that BA Loan to be disbursed to Borrower on the Acceptance Date shall be the same amount
as if that Lender had accepted and purchased its Lender's Applicable Percentage of the requested Bankers' Acceptances at a discount from the Principal Amount of that Bankers' Acceptance calculated at
a discount rate per annum equal to the Bankers' Acceptance Rate for the term of such Bankers' Acceptances in the same manner that BA Net Proceeds are calculated; provided that the Principal Amount of
such BA Loan shall be the same amount as the face amount of the Bankers' Acceptance which such Lender would have accepted but for this Section 2.22(h).

(i)    If
any Borrower notifies the Canadian Administrative Agent of a Borrower Arrangement, on the Acceptance Date of the Bankers' Acceptances constituting such Borrower
Arrangement:



(j)    [Intentionally
omitted.]

(k)   If
a Lender determines in good faith, which determination shall be final, conclusive and binding upon Borrower, and notifies Borrower that, by reason of circumstances
affecting the money market:



34

---







then:



(y)   any
Bankers' Acceptance Request for an affected duration which is outstanding shall be canceled and the Bankers' Acceptances or BA Loan requested therein shall not be
made and a Bankers' Acceptance or BA Loan having the shortest duration available (or if none) a Canadian Prime Loan shall be made in its place.

(l)    It
is the intention of the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower that, except to the extent a Lender advises otherwise, pursuant to the Depository Bills and Notes Act("DBNA"), all Bankers' Acceptances accepted by the Lenders under this
Agreement shall be issued in the form of a "depository bill" (as defined in the DBNA), deposited with the Canadian Depository for Securities Ltd. and made payable to CDS & Co. In order
to give effect to the foregoing, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall, subject to the approval of Borrower and the Lenders, establish and notify Borrower and the Lenders of any procedure,
consistent with the terms of this Agreement and the requirements of the DBNA, as is reasonably necessary to accomplish such intention, including, without limitation:



(m)  If
any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that Borrower receives notice from the Global Administrative Agent, the Canadian
Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Lenders with BA Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total BA Exposure) demanding the
deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Canadian Administrative Agent, in the name of the Canadian Administrative Agent and for the benefit
of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the BA Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon;providedthat the obligation to
deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event
of Default described inSection 8.1(g). Borrower shall also deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.10, and any such cash collateral so deposited and held by the Canadian Administrative Agent hereunder shall constitute part of the
Global Borrowing Base for purposes of determining compliance withSection 2.10. Each such deposit shall be held by the Canadian Administrative
Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement. The Canadian Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the
exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Canadian
Administrative Agent and at Borrower's risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such
account shall be applied by the Canadian Administrative

35

Agent
for the satisfaction of the obligations of Borrower with respect to the BA Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with
BA Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total BA Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of Borrower under this Agreement. If Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash
collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to Borrower within three (3) Business Days
after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.10, such amount (to the extent not applied as
aforesaid) shall be returned to Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect
to such return, Borrower would remain in compliance withSection 2.10and no Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest
thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each
Lender affected thereby, (iv) changeSection 2.18(b)or(c)in a manner that would alter
the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section 10.2,Section 2.10(unless a lesser vote is otherwise required pursuant to this Section 10.2) or the definition of "Majority Lenders" or any other provision of any

to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment
to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee(IT BEING UNDERSTOOD THAT IT IS THE INTENTION OF THE PARTIES HERETO THAT EACH OF THE
INDEMNITEES BE INDEMNIFIED IN THE CASE OF ITS OWN NEGLIGENCE (OTHER THAN GROSS NEGLIGENCE), REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH NEGLIGENCE IS SOLE OR CONTRIBUTORY, ACTIVE OR PASSIVE, IMPUTED, JOINT OR
