 CREDIT AGREEMENT 
  

CREDIT AGREEMENT, dated as of September 24, 2004 between LILY CUPS INC., an Ontario corporation (“Borrower”), and GE CANADA FINANCE
HOLDING COMPANY, a Nova Scotia unlimited liability company (in its individual capacity, “GE Canada”), for itself as Lender and as Agent for other Lenders signatory hereto from time to time. 
  
 RECITALS 
  
 A. Borrower desires that Lender extend revolving and term credit facilities to Borrower of
up to Thirty Million Canadian Dollars ($30,000,000) in the aggregate for the purposes of (1) the Refinancing and (2) providing working capital financing for Borrower and funds for other general corporate purposes of Borrower; and for these purposes,
Lender is willing to make certain loans and other extensions of credit to Borrower of up to such amount upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. 
  
 B. Borrower desires to secure all of its obligations under the Loan Documents by granting to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, a security interest in, charges
on and other liens upon all of its existing and after-acquired personal and real property. 
  
 C. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Annex A. All Annexes, Disclosure Schedules, Exhibits and other attachments (collectively, “Appendices”)
hereto, or expressly identified to this Agreement, are incorporated herein by reference, and taken together, shall constitute but a single agreement. These Recitals shall be construed as part of the Agreement. 
  
 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the parties agree as follows: 
  
 SECTION 1 — AMOUNT AND TERMS OF CREDIT 
  
 1.1 Credit Facilities 
  
 (1) Revolving Credit Facility 
  
 (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Revolving Lender agrees to make available from time to time until the Commitment Termination Date its
Pro Rata Share of advances (each, a “Revolving Credit Advance”) on account of the Revolving Loan. The Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan of any Revolving Lender shall not at any time exceed its separate Revolving Loan
Commitment. The obligations of each Revolving Lender hereunder shall be several and not joint. The aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Advances outstanding shall not exceed at any time the lesser of (A) the Borrowing Base and (B) the Maximum Amount
and, in each case, less the sum of the Letter of Credit Obligations (“Borrowing Availability”). Until the Commitment Termination Date, Borrower may from time to time borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section 1.1(1). Each
Revolving Credit Advance shall be made on notice by Borrower to the representative of Agent identified on Schedule 1.1 at the address specified thereon. Those notices must be given no later than 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on the Business Day of the
proposed Revolving Credit Advance. Each such notice (a “Notice of Revolving Credit Advance”) must be given in writing (by telecopy or overnight courier) substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.1(1)(a), and shall include the
information required in such Exhibit and such 

  









 
other information as may be required by Agent. If Borrower wishes that Lender convert an amount of a proposed Revolving Credit Advance into US Dollars before
depositing the proceeds of the Revolving Credit Advance into a Disbursement Account, Borrower shall make its request in the applicable Notice of Revolving Credit Advance. If Borrower is entitled to such requested Revolving Credit Advance, Lender
shall deposit into Borrower’s US Dollar Disbursement Account the amount of US Dollars that, at the then applicable Currency Exchange Rate, is equivalent to the amount of the requested Revolving Credit Advance that Borrower has requested that
Lender convert into US Dollars. Lender shall notify Borrower of the Currency Exchange Rate on or prior to the first Business Day of each calendar month that is applicable during such calendar month for the purpose of such currency conversions.

  
 (b) Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender a note to
evidence the Revolving Loan Commitment. Such note shall be in the principal amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment, dated the Closing Date and substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.1(1)(b) (the “Revolving Note”). The Revolving
Note shall represent the obligation of Borrower to pay the amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Credit Advances to Borrower, together with interest thereon as prescribed in
Section 1.5. The entire unpaid balance of the Revolving Loan and all other non-contingent Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Commitment Termination Date. 
  
 (2) Term Loan 
  
 (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Lender agrees to make a term loan on the Closing Date to Borrower (the
“Term Loan”) in the original principal amount of the Term Loan Commitment. The Term Loan shall be evidenced by a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.1(2) (the “Term Note”), and
Borrower shall execute and deliver its Term Note to Lender. The Term Note shall represent the obligation of Borrower to pay the amount of the Term Loan Commitment, together with interest thereon as prescribed in Section 1.5. 
  
 (b) Borrower shall repay to Lender the principal amount of the Term Loan in
eleven (11) consecutive quarterly instalments of $482,142.86 on the first day of January, April, July and October of each year, commencing January 1, 2005, up to and including July 1, 2007 and in one final instalment on September 24, 2007 in an
amount of $8,196,428.54. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan shall be due and payable to Lender in full for value on the Commitment Termination Date, if not sooner paid in full. 
  
 (c) Each payment of principal with respect to the Term Loan shall be paid to
Agent for the ratable benefit of each Term Lender, ratably in proportion to each such Term Lender’s respective Term Loan Commitment.  
  
 (3) Reliance on Notices. Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any Notice of Revolving Credit Advance, Notice
of Interest Rate Election or similar notice believed by Agent to be genuine. Agent may assume that each Person executing and delivering such a notice was duly authorized, unless the responsible individual acting thereon for Agent has actual
knowledge to the contrary.

 1.2 Letters of Credit. Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions contained herein and in
Annex B, Borrower shall have the right to request, and Lender agrees to incur, Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of Borrower. 
  
 1.3 Prepayments and Cancellation 
  
 (1) Voluntary Prepayments. Borrower may at any time on at least five (5) days’ prior written notice to Agent voluntarily prepay (a) part (but not all)
of the Term Loan without bonus or penalty; provided that any such prepayment must be in a minimum amount of at least $1,000,000, or (b) all of the Term Loan. In addition, Borrower may at any time on at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice
to Agent terminate the Revolving Loan Commitment; provided that upon such termination, all Loans and other Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full. Any voluntary prepayment of all of the Term Loan and any such termination of
the Revolving Loan Commitment must be accompanied by the payment of the fee required by Section 1.9(3), if any. Upon any such prepayment and termination of the Revolving Loan Commitment, Borrower’s right to request Revolving Credit Advances, or
request that Letter of Credit Obligations be incurred on its behalf, shall simultaneously be terminated. Any partial prepayments of the Term Loan made by Borrower shall be applied to prepay the scheduled installments of the Term Loan in inverse
order of maturity. 
  
 (2) Mandatory Prepayments. 
  
 (a) If at any time the outstanding balance of the Revolving Loan exceeds the
lesser of (A) the Maximum Amount and (B) the Borrowing Base, Borrower shall immediately repay the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Advances to the extent required to eliminate such excess. If any such excess remains after repayment in full of
the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Advances, Borrower shall provide cash collateral for the Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner set forth in Annex B to the extent required to eliminate such excess. 
  
 (b) Immediately upon receipt by Borrower of proceeds of any asset disposition
(including condemnation proceeds, but excluding proceeds of asset dispositions permitted by Section 6.8(1)), Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to all such proceeds, net of (A) commissions and other reasonable and customary
transaction costs, fees and expenses properly attributable to such transaction and payable by Borrower in connection therewith (in each case, paid to non-Affiliates), (B) transfer taxes, (C) amounts payable to holders of senior Liens (to the extent
such Liens constitute Permitted Encumbrances hereunder), if any, and (D) an appropriate reserve for income taxes in accordance with GAAP in connection therewith. Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with clause (3) below, as
applicable. 
  
 If Borrower issues Stock, no
later than the Business Day following the date of receipt of the proceeds thereof, Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to all such proceeds. Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with clause (3) below. 

 
 (3) Application of Certain Mandatory Prepayments. Any prepayments made by
Borrower pursuant to clause (2)(b) or (2)(c) above shall be applied as follows: first, to Fees and reimbursable expenses of Agent then due and payable pursuant to any of the Loan Documents; second, to interest then due
and payable on the Term Loan; third, to prepay the scheduled 

  

 - 3 - 








 
installments of the Term Loan in inverse order of maturity, until such Loan shall have been prepaid in full; fourth, to interest then due and payable
on the Revolving Credit Advances; fifth, to the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Advances until the same shall have been paid in full; and sixth, to any Letter of Credit Obligations, to provide cash collateral
therefor in the manner set forth in Annex B, until all such Letter of Credit Obligations have been fully cash collateralized in the manner set forth in Annex B; provided that, with respect to prepayments by Borrower pursuant to clause
(2)(c) above, the fourth, fifth and sixth applications of such prepayments provided for above shall instead be second, third and fourth applications, respectively, and the second and third applications of such prepayments provided for above
shall instead be fifth and sixth applications, respectively. The Revolving Loan Commitment shall not be permanently reduced by the amount of any such prepayments. 
  
 (4) Application of Prepayments from Insurance Proceeds. Prepayments from insurance proceeds in accordance with Section 5.4(3)
shall be applied as follows: (a) insurance proceeds from casualties or losses to cash or Inventory shall be applied to the Revolving Credit Advances; and (b) insurance proceeds from casualties or losses to Equipment, Fixtures and Real Estate shall
be applied to scheduled installments of the Term Loan in inverse order of maturity. The Revolving Loan Commitment shall not be permanently reduced by the amount of any such prepayments. If the precise amount of insurance proceeds allocable to
Inventory as compared to Equipment, Fixtures and Real Estate are not otherwise determined, the allocation and application of those proceeds shall be determined by Agent, acting reasonably, subject to the approval of Requisite Lenders. 
  
 (5) No Consent Construed. Nothing in this Section 1.3 shall be construed to
constitute Agent’s or any Lender’s consent to any transaction referred to in clauses (2)(b) and (2)(c) above which is not permitted by other provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. 
  
 (6) Cancellation. The Borrower may, at any time upon payment of any applicable
fee set out in Section 1.9(3), if any, cancel amounts of the Revolving Loan Commitment, in minimum amounts of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000, subject to giving the Agent ten (10) days prior written notice (who shall thereupon deliver
a similar notice to each of the Revolving Lenders), with such notice setting out the amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment that Borrower wishes to cancel and the date upon which such cancellation is to be effective. Amounts cancelled shall
constitute permanent reductions and will not be reinstated. Such cancellations or reductions with respect to any drawn portion shall be without effect unless such drawn portion and any associated accrued interest and/or fees shall have been paid. If
the Revolving Loan Commitment is so reduced, the commitment of each Revolving Lender shall be reduced pro rata in the same proportion that the amount of the reduction in the Revolving Loan Commitment bears to the then current commitment of
each Revolving Lender in effect immediately prior to such reduction. 
  
 1.4
Use of Proceeds. Borrower shall utilize the proceeds of the Term Loan and the Revolving Loan solely for the Refinancing (and to pay any related transaction expenses), Borrower’s ordinary working capital requirements, permitted Capital
Expenditures (including, for greater certainty, Capital Expenditures relating to the purchase of Equipment and capital property from Affiliates up to a maximum of $5,000,000 between the Closing Date and the Commitment Termination Date, provided that
Borrower shall have a Net Borrowing Availability 

  

 - 4 - 








 
of at least $1,000,000 immediately after giving effect to such purchase) and Borrower’s general corporate needs (but excluding in any event, the making
of any Restricted Payment not specifically permitted by Section 6.13). Disclosure Schedule 1.4 contains a description of Borrower’s sources and uses of funds as of the Closing Date, including Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations to be made or
incurred on that date, and a funds flow memorandum detailing how funds from each source are to be transferred to particular uses. 
  
 1.5 Interest and Applicable Margins. 
  
 (1) Three (3) Business Days prior to each Interest Payment Date, the Borrower may deliver to the Agent a notice (“Notice of Interest Rate
Election”) in the form of Exhibit 1.5(1), in which the Borrower may elect to have the interest on the Loans for the Interest Period commencing with such Interest Payment Date calculated by reference to either the Index Rate or the BA Rate.
In the event that (a) a Notice of Interest Rate Election is not provided three (3) Business Days prior to an Interest Payment Date, or (b) a Default of an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on an Interest Payment Date, then the interest
on the Loans for the Interest Period commencing with such Interest Payment Date shall be calculated by reference to the Index Rate. 
  
 (2) Interest. Borrower shall pay interest to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders in accordance with the various Loans being made by each Lender, in
arrears on each applicable Interest Payment Date, at the following rates: (a) with respect to the Revolving Credit Advances, either the Index Rate plus 0.50% per annum or the BA Rate plus 1.75% per annum as determined by Section 1.5(1) based on the
aggregate Revolving Credit Advances outstanding from time to time during the most recently ended Interest Period prior to that Interest Payment Date; and (b) with respect to the Term Loan, the Index Rate plus 0.75% per annum or the BA Rate plus
2.00% per annum as determined by Section 1.5(1) based on the aggregate amount of the Term Loan outstanding from time to time during the most recently ended Interest Period prior to that Interest Payment Date. 
  
 (3) Extension to Next Business Day. If any payment on any Loan becomes due and
payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof will be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

  
 (4) Calculations on 365 Day Year. All computations of Fees
calculated on a per annum basis and interest shall be made by Agent on the basis of a three hundred and sixty-five (365) day year, in each case for the actual number of days occurring in the period for which such interest and Fees are payable. The
BA Rate shall be fixed by the Agent monthly in advance. Each determination by Agent of an interest rate and Fees hereunder shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
  
 (5) Interest Upon Payment Default. Upon a default in the payment of interest or any other amount (other than principal) due
under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party, Borrower shall pay interest on such overdue amount, both before and after judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (1) in the case of overdue interest, the rate of
interest payable under this Section 1.5 on the principal amount to which such overdue interest relates and

(2) in the case of all such other overdue amounts (which overdue amounts, for greater certainty, shall not include overdue principal or interest in any
case), the Index Rate plus 4.50%, in each case, calculated on a daily basis from the date such amount becomes overdue for so long as such amount remains overdue and on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a 365 day year. Such
interest shall be payable upon demand by Lender. From and after the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Letter of Credit Fee shall be increased by two percent (2%) per annum and all interest payable on the Loans shall be increased by two percent
(2%) per annum over the interest otherwise applicable hereunder. 
  
 (6)
Criminal Rates of Interest. If any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents would obligate Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which
would be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by Lender of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)) then, notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have
been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in a receipt by Lender of interest at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the
extent necessary, as follows: (1) firstly, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid to Lender under this Section 1.5; and (2) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to
Lender which would constitute interest for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if Lender shall have received an amount in
excess of the maximum permitted by that section of the Criminal Code (Canada), then Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in writing to Lender, to obtain reimbursement from Lender in an amount equal to such excess, and pending such
reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by Lender to Borrower. Any amount or rate of interest referred to in this Section 1.5(6) shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles
as an effective annual rate of interest over the term that any Loan remains outstanding on the assumption that any charges, fees or expenses that fall within the meaning of “interest” (as defined in the Criminal Code
(Canada)) shall, if they relate to a specific period of time, be pro-rated over that period of time and otherwise be pro-rated over the period from the Closing Date to the Termination Date and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of
the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by Lender shall be conclusive for the purposes of such determination. 
  
 (7) Interest Act. For purposes of disclosure pursuant to the Interest Act (Canada), the annual rates of interest or fees to which the rates of
interest or fees provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and stated herein or therein, as applicable, to be computed on the basis of a 365 day year or any other period of time less than a calendar year) are equivalent are the rates
so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the applicable calendar year and divided by 365 or such other period of time, respectively. 
  
 1.6 Eligible Accounts. Based on the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate delivered by Borrower to Agent and on other information available to
Agent, Agent shall in its reasonable credit judgment determine which Accounts of Borrower shall be “Eligible Accounts” for purposes of this Agreement. In determining whether a particular Account constitutes an Eligible
Account, Agent shall not include any such Account to which any of the exclusionary criteria set 

  

 - 6 - 








 
forth below applies. Agent reserves the right, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, to adjust any such criteria, to establish new
criteria and to adjust advance rates with respect to Eligible Accounts, in its reasonable credit judgment. Eligible Accounts shall not include any Account of Borrower: 
  
 (1) which does not arise from the sale of goods or the performance of services by Borrower in the ordinary course of its business;

  
 (2) upon which (A) Borrower’s right to receive payment is not absolute or
is contingent upon the fulfilment of any condition whatsoever or (B) as to which Borrower is not able to bring suit or otherwise enforce its remedies against the Account Debtor through judicial process, or (C) if the Account represents a progress
billing consisting of an invoice for goods sold or used or services rendered pursuant to a contract under which the Account Debtor’s obligation to pay that invoice is subject to Borrower’s completion of further performance under such
contract or is subject to the equitable lien of a surety bond issuer; 
  
 (3) to
the extent that any defence, counterclaim, set-off or dispute is asserted as to such Account; 
  
 (4) that is not a true and correct statement of bona fide indebtedness incurred in the amount of the Account for merchandise sold to or services rendered and accepted by the applicable Account Debtor;

  
 (5) with respect to which an invoice, acceptable to Agent in form and
substance, has not been sent to the applicable Account Debtor; 
  
 (6) that (a) is
not owned by Borrower or (b) is subject to any right, claim, security interest (or applicable equivalent) or other interest of any other Person, other than Liens in favour of Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, and Prior Claims that are
unregistered and that secure amounts that are not yet due and payable; 
  
 (7)
that arises from a sale to any director, officer, other employee or Affiliate of Borrower, or to any entity which has any common officer or director with Borrower (other than the Canadian Polystyrene Recycling Association so long as a director
thereof is also a director of Borrower); 
  
 (8) that is the obligation of an
Account Debtor that is the Canadian Government (Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Canada) or a political subdivision thereof, or any province or territory, or any municipality or department, agency or instrumentality thereof, or that is the United
States government or a political subdivision thereof, or any state or municipality or department, agency or instrumentality thereof, unless Agent, in its sole discretion, has agreed to the contrary in writing, the Account is assignable by way of
security and Borrower, if necessary or desirable, has complied with the Financial Administration Act (Canada), and any amendments thereto, or the Federal Assignment of Claims Act of 1940 (United States), and any amendments thereto, or
any applicable provincial or state statute or municipal ordinance of similar purpose and effect, as applicable, with respect to such obligation; 
  

 - 7 - 








 (9) that is the obligation of an Account Debtor located in a foreign country other than the United States of America
unless payment thereof is assured by a letter of credit assigned and delivered to Agent, satisfactory to Agent as to form, amount and issuer; 
  
 (10) to the extent Borrower is liable for goods sold or services rendered by the applicable Account Debtor to Borrower but only to the extent of the potential offset;

  
 (11) that arises with respect to goods which are delivered on a bill-and-hold,
cash-on-delivery basis or placed on consignment, guaranteed sale or other terms by reason of which the payment by the Account Debtor is or may be conditional; 
  

(12) that is in default; provided, that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, an Account shall be deemed in default upon the occurrence of
any of the following: 
  
 (a) it is not paid
within the earlier of: sixty (60) days following its due date or ninety (90) days following its original invoice date; 
  
 (b) if any Account Debtor obligated upon such Account suspends business, makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors or fails
to pay its debts generally as they come due or is otherwise insolvent; or 
  
 (c) if any assignment or petition is filed by or against any Account Debtor obligated upon such Account under any Insolvency Laws (other than post-petition Accounts in a total amount no greater than $1,000,000 owing
by Core-Mark Inc.); 
  
 (13) which is the obligation of an Account Debtor if fifty
percent (50%) (twenty-five percent (25%) for Core-Mark Inc.) or more of the dollar amount of all Accounts owing by that Account Debtor are ineligible under the other criteria set forth in this Section 1.6; 
  
 (14) as to which Agent’s and Lenders’ interest therein is not a first priority
perfected Lien (subject only to Prior Claims that are unregistered and that secure accounts that are not yet due and payable); 
  
 (15) as to which any of the representations or warranties pertaining to Accounts set forth in any of the Loan Documents is untrue; 
  
 (16) to the extent such Account is evidenced by a judgment, Instrument or Chattel Paper;

  
 (17) to the extent such Account exceeds any credit limit established by Agent,
in its reasonable discretion; 
  
 (18) to the extent that such Account, together
with all other Accounts owing by such Account Debtor and its Affiliates as of any date of determination exceed thirty-five percent (35%) of all Eligible Accounts; 
  
 (19) which is payable in any currency other than Canadian Dollars or US Dollars; or 
  
 (20) which is unacceptable to Agent in its reasonable credit judgment.

 1.7 Eligible Inventory and Eligible WIP Inventory. Based on the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate delivered
by Borrower to Agent and on other information available to Agent, Agent shall in its reasonable credit judgment determine which raw material and finished goods Inventory of Borrower shall be “Eligible Inventory” and which work-in-process
Inventory of Borrower shall be “Eligible WIP Inventory” for purposes of this Agreement. In determining whether any particular Inventory constitutes Eligible Inventory or Eligible WIP Inventory, Agent shall not include any such Inventory to
which any of the exclusionary criteria set forth below applies; provided that, with reference to Eligible WIP Inventory, clause (6) below shall be read without reference to “work-in-process Inventory” and clause (8) below shall instead be
read as: “is not of a type which, if finished in the ordinary course, would be held for sale in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business”. Agent reserves the right, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, to adjust
any such criteria, to establish new criteria and to adjust advance rates with respect to Eligible Inventory and Eligible WIP Inventory in its reasonable credit judgment. Neither Eligible Inventory nor Eligible WIP Inventory (subject to the proviso
in the second sentence of this Section 1.7) shall include any Inventory of Borrower that: 
  
 (1) is not owned by Borrower free and clear of all Liens and rights of any other Person (including the rights of a purchaser that has made progress payments and the rights of a surety that has issued a bond to assure
Borrower’s performance with respect to that Inventory), except the Liens in favour of Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, and Prior Claims that are unregistered and that secure amounts that are not yet due and payable; 
  
 (2) is (a) not located on premises owned by Borrower unless (A) stored with a bailee,
warehouseman or similar Person or (B) located on premises leased by Borrower, and in the case of clauses (A) and (B) Agent has given its prior consent thereto and (x) a satisfactory bailee letter or landlord waiver has been delivered to Agent, or
(y) Reserves satisfactory to Agent have been established with respect thereto, or (b) located at any site if the aggregate book value of Inventory at any such location is less than $100,000; 
  
 (3) has been supplied to Borrower by an Affiliate of Borrower and has been held by Borrower
as Inventory for a period of less than thirty-one (31) days unless such Affiliate of Borrower shall have waived in favour of Agent its supplier’s rights under Section 81.1 of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada) and any other
similar applicable laws in a manner acceptable to Agent. 
  
 (4) is placed on
consignment or is in transit; 
  
 (5) is covered by a negotiable document of
title, unless such document has been delivered to Agent with all necessary endorsements, free and clear of all Liens except those in favour of Agent; 
  
 (6) in Agent’s reasonable determination, is excess, obsolete, unsalable, shopworn, seconds, damaged or unfit for sale; 
  
 (7) consists of display items or packing or shipping materials, manufacturing supplies
(which, for greater certainty, do not include raw materials used for manufacturing finished goods 

  

 - 9 - 








 
Inventory or packing or shipping materials in which finished goods Inventory have been packed), work-in-process Inventory or replacement parts; 

 
 (8) consists of goods which have been returned by the buyer and are not being held for
resale (provided that, for greater certainty, goods that are excess, obsolete, unsalable, shopworn, seconds, damaged or otherwise unfit for sale shall not constitute goods being held for resale); 
  
 (9) is not of a type held for sale in the ordinary course of Borrower’s business;

  
 (10) as to which Agent’s Lien therein is not a first priority perfected
Lien (subject only to Prior Claims that are unregistered and that secure amounts that are not yet due and payable); 
  
 (11) as to which any of the representations or warranties pertaining to Inventory set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document is untrue; 
  
 (12) consists of Hazardous Materials or goods that can be transported or sold only with
licenses that are not readily available; 
  
 (13) is not covered by casualty
insurance acceptable to Agent; or 
  
 (14) is otherwise unacceptable to Agent in
its reasonable credit judgment. 
  
 1.8 Cash Management Systems. On or
prior to the Closing Date, Borrower will establish and will maintain until the Termination Date, the cash management systems described in Annex C (the “Cash Management Systems”). 
  
 1.9 Fees. 
  
 (1) Borrower shall pay to GE Canada, individually, the Fees specified in the Fee Letter. 
  
 (2) As additional compensation for Revolving Lenders’ Revolving Loan Commitment,
Borrower agrees to pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of such Lenders, in arrears, on the first Business Day of each month prior to the Commitment Termination Date and on the Commitment Termination Date, a fee for Borrower’s non-use of
available funds in an amount equal to the sum of (a) three eighths of one percent (.375%) per annum (calculated on the basis of a 365 day year for actual days elapsed) of the difference between (x) the average for the period for which such fee is
due of the daily Borrowing Base, and (y) the average of the daily closing balances of the Revolving Loan outstanding during such period; plus (b) one eighth of one percent (.125%) per annum (calculated on the basis of a 365 day year for actual days
elapsed) of the difference between (x) the Maximum Amount determined as of the last day of the period for which such fee is due and (y) the average for such period of the daily Borrowing Base. 
  
 (3) If Borrower (a) reduces the Revolving Loan Commitment to an amount less than or equal to
$10,000,000, (b) terminates the Revolving Loan Commitment, or (c) prepays all of the Term Loan prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, whether voluntarily or involuntarily and whether before or after acceleration of the Obligations,
Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, as liquidated damages and compensation for the costs of being prepared to make funds available hereunder, a one time only fee in the amount of $200,000. 

  

 - 10 - 








 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no prepayment fee shall be payable by Borrower upon a mandatory prepayment made pursuant to Sections 1.3(2); provided that
Borrower does not permanently reduce the Revolving Loan Commitment upon any such prepayment and, in the case of prepayments made pursuant to Section 1.3(2)(b) or 1.3(2)(c), the transaction giving rise to the applicable prepayment is expressly
permitted under Section 6. 
  
 (4) The fees payable under Section 1.9(1) shall be
fully earned on the date of required payment thereof and shall be non-refundable when paid. 
  
 1.10 Receipt of Payments. Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement for value not later than 2:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the day when due to the applicable Collection Account in the currency in
which the Obligation is denominated. For greater certainty, Revolving Credit Advances constitute Obligations denominated in Canadian Dollars. For the purpose of computing interest as of any date, all payments shall be deemed received on the day
following the day of receipt of value for such payments in the applicable Collection Account. For the purpose of computing Fees and determining Borrowing Availability or Net Borrowing Availability as of any date, all payments shall be deemed
received on the day of receipt of value for such payments in the applicable Collection Account prior to 2:00 p.m. (Toronto time) and payments received after 2:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on any Business Day shall be deemed to have been received on the
following Business Day. 
  
 1.11 Application and Allocation of Payments.

  
 (1) So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, (a) payments consisting of proceeds of Accounts received in the ordinary course of business shall be applied to the Revolving Loan; (b) payments matching specific scheduled payments then due shall be applied to those scheduled payments;
(iii) voluntary prepayments shall be applied as determined by Borrower, subject to the provisions of Section 1.3(1); and mandatory prepayments shall be applied as set forth in Section 1.3(3) or 1.3(4). As to each other payment, and as to all
payments made when a Default or Event or Default shall have occurred and be continuing or following the Commitment Termination Date, Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments received from or on
behalf of Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees that Agent shall have the continuing exclusive right to apply any and all such payments against the Obligations as Agent may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous entry by Lender in
the Loan Account or any other books and records. In the absence of a specific determination by Lender with respect thereto, payments shall be applied to amounts then due and payable in the following order: (A) to Fees and Agent’s expenses
reimbursable hereunder; (B) to interest on the Loans, ratably in proportion to the interest accrued as to each Loan; (C) to principal payments on the Loans and to provide cash collateral for Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner described in
Annex B, ratably to the aggregate, combined principal balance of the Loans and outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations; and (D) to all other Obligations to the extent reimbursable under Section 11.3. 
  
 (2) Agent is authorized to, and at its sole election may, charge to the Revolving Loan
balance on behalf of Borrower and cause to be paid all Fees, expenses, Charges, costs (including insurance premiums in accordance with Section 5.4(1)) and interest and principal, other than principal of the Revolving Loan, owing by Borrower under
this Agreement or any of the other 

  

 - 11 - 








 
Loan Documents if and to the extent Borrower fails to pay any such amounts promptly as and when due, even if such charges would cause the Revolving Loan to
exceed Borrowing Availability (and for the purpose of this Section 1.11(2), Lender may convert Obligations denominated in US Dollars into the Equivalent Amount of Canadian Dollars). At Agent’s option and to the extent permitted by law, any
charges so made shall constitute part of the Revolving Loan hereunder. Agent shall provide to Borrower supporting documentation for such charges within 30 days of Borrower’s request therefor. 
  
 1.12 Loan Account and Accounting. Agent shall maintain a loan account (the
“Loan Account”) on its books to record: all Revolving Credit Advances and the Term Loan, all payments made by Borrower and all other debits and credits as provided in this Agreement with respect to the Loans or any other
Obligations. All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with Agent’s customary accounting practices as in effect from time to time. The balance in the Loan Account, as recorded on Agent’s most recent printout or other
written statement, shall, absent manifest error, be presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to Agent by Borrower; provided that any failure to so record or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect
Borrower’s duty to pay the Obligations. Agent shall render to Borrower a monthly accounting of transactions with respect to the Loans setting forth the balance of the Loan Account. Unless Borrower notifies Agent in writing of any objection to
any such accounting (specifically describing the basis for such objection), within thirty (30) days after the date thereof, each and every such accounting shall, absent manifest error, be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrower in all
respects as to all matters reflected therein. Only those items expressly objected to in such notice shall be deemed to be disputed by Borrower. Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, Agent may elect (which election may be
revoked) to dispense with the issuance of Notes to Agent and may rely on the Loan Account as evidence of the amount of Obligations from time to time owing to it. 
  
 1.13 Indemnity. Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each of Agent, Lenders and their respective Affiliates, and each such
Person’s respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents and representatives (each, an “Indemnified Person”), from and against any and all suits, actions, proceedings, claims, damages, losses, liabilities
and expenses (including reasonable legal fees, on a solicitor and client basis, and disbursements and other costs of investigation or defence, including those incurred upon any appeal) which may be instituted or asserted against or incurred by any
such Indemnified Person as the result of credit having been extended, suspended or terminated under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the administration of such credit, and in connection with or arising out of the transactions
contemplated hereunder and thereunder and any actions or failures to act in connection therewith, including any and all Environmental Liabilities and legal costs and expenses arising out of or incurred in connection with disputes between or among
any parties to any of the Loan Documents (collectively, “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, that Borrower shall not be liable for any indemnification to an Indemnified Person to the extent that any such
suit, action, proceeding, claim, damage, loss, liability or expense results from that Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct. NO INDEMNIFIED PERSON SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, ANY
SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY OF SUCH PERSON OR ANY OTHER PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, FOR 

  

 - 12 - 








 
INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF CREDIT HAVING BEEN EXTENDED, SUSPENDED OR TERMINATED UNDER ANY
LOAN DOCUMENT OR AS A RESULT OF ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER. 
  
 1.14 Access. Borrower shall, during normal business hours, from time to time upon one (1) Business Day’s prior notice as frequently as Agent determines to be appropriate: (1) provide Agent and any of its
officers, employees and agents access to its properties, facilities, advisors and employees (including officers) and to the Collateral, (2) permit Agent, and any of its officers, employees and agents, to inspect, audit and make extracts from any of
Borrower’s books and records, and (3) permit Agent, and its officers, employees and agents, to inspect, review, evaluate and make test verifications and counts of the Accounts, Inventory and other Collateral of Borrower. If a Default or Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or if access is necessary to preserve or protect the Collateral as determined by the Agent, Borrower shall provide such access to Agent at all times and without advance notice. Furthermore, so long as
any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower shall provide Agent with access to its suppliers and customers. Borrower shall make available to Agent and its counsel, as quickly as is possible under the circumstances, originals
or copies of all books and records which Agent may reasonably request. Borrower shall deliver any document or instrument necessary for Agent, as it may from time to time request, to obtain records from any service bureau or other Person which
maintains records for Borrower, and shall maintain duplicate records or supporting documentation on media, including computer tapes and discs owned by Borrower. 
  

1.15 Taxes. 
  
 (1) Any and all payments by Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be made, in accordance with this Section 1.15, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future Taxes,
excluding Taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of Lender by the jurisdictions under the laws of which it is organized or is resident or carries on business through a permanent establishment located therein or any political subdivisions
thereof. If Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document (excluding Taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of Lender by the jurisdictions under the
laws of which it is organized or is resident or carries on business through a permanent establishment located therein or any political subdivisions thereof), (i) the sum payable shall be increased as much as shall be necessary so that after making
all required withholdings and deductions (including withholdings and deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 1.15) Agent or Lenders, as applicable, receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
withholdings or deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions, and (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing or other authority in accordance with applicable law. Within thirty (30) days after the date
of any payment of Taxes, Borrower shall furnish to Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. 
  
 (2) In addition, Borrower agrees to pay any present or future Taxes that arise from any payment made under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document or from the
execution, sale, transfer, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, the other 

  

 - 13 - 








 
Loan Documents and any other agreements and instruments contemplated hereby or thereby (except for Taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of Lender
by the jurisdictions under the laws of which it is organized or is resident or carries on business through a permanent establishment located therein or any political subdivisions thereof). Lender agrees that, as promptly as reasonably practicable
after it becomes aware of any circumstances referred to above which would result in additional payments under this Section 1.15(2), it shall notify Borrower thereof. 
  
 (3) Borrower shall indemnify Lender for the full amount of the Taxes referred to in this Section 1.15 (except for Taxes imposed on or
measured by the net income of Lender by the jurisdictions under the laws of which it is organized or is resident or carries on business through a permanent establishment located therein or any political subdivisions thereof, but including, without
limitation, any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable by Borrower under this Section 1.15) paid by Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within ten (10) days after the date Lender makes written demand therefor. 
  
 1.16 Capital Adequacy; Increased Costs. 
  
 (1) If Lender shall have determined that any law, treaty, governmental (or quasi-governmental) rule, regulation, guideline or order regarding capital adequacy, reserve
requirements or similar requirements or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law), in each case, adopted after the Closing
Date, from any central bank or other Governmental Authority increases or would have the effect of increasing the amount of capital, reserves or other funds required to be maintained by such Lender and thereby reducing the rate of return on such
Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, then Borrower shall from time to time upon demand by such Lender pay to Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such
reduction. A certificate as to the amount of that reduction and showing the basis of the computation thereof submitted by such Lender to Borrower and the Agent shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

  
 (2) If, due to either (a) the introduction of or any change in any law or
regulation (or any change in the interpretation thereof) or (b) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), in each case adopted after the Closing Date,
there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Loan, then Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to Agent) pay to such Lender
additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to Borrower by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower for all purposes, absent
manifest error. Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of any circumstances referred to above which would result in any such increased cost, the affected Lender shall, to the extent not inconsistent with such
Lender’s internal policies of general application, use reasonable 

  

 - 14 - 








 
commercial efforts to minimize costs and expenses incurred by it and payable to it by Borrower pursuant to this Section 1.16(2). 
  
 (3) Within thirty (30) days after receipt by Borrower of written notice and demand from any
Lender (an “Affected Lender”) for payment of additional amounts or increased costs as provided in Sections 1.15(a), 1.16(1) or 1.16(2), Borrower may, at its option, notify Agent and such Affected Lender of its intention to
replace the Affected Lender. So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower, with the consent of Agent, may obtain, at Borrower’s expense, a replacement Lender (“Replacement Lender”) for the
Affected Lender, which Replacement Lender must be reasonably satisfactory to Agent. If Borrower obtains a Replacement Lender within ninety (90) days following notice of its intention to do so, the Affected Lender must sell and assign its Loans and
Commitments to such Replacement Lender for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by the Affected Lender and all accrued interest and Fees with respect thereto through the date of such sale and such assignment shall not require
the payment of an assignment fee to Agent; provided, that Borrower shall have reimbursed such Affected Lender for the additional amounts or increased costs that it is entitled to receive under this Agreement through the date of such sale and
assignment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not have the right to obtain a Replacement Lender if the Affected Lender rescinds its demand for increased costs or additional amounts within 15 days following its receipt of Borrower’s
notice of intention to replace such Affected Lender. Furthermore, if Borrower gives a notice of intention to replace and does not so replace such Affected Lender within ninety (90) days thereafter, Borrower’s rights under this Section
1.16(d) shall terminate with respect to such Affected Lender and Borrower shall promptly pay all increased costs or additional amounts demanded by such Affected Lender pursuant to Sections 1.15(a), 1.16(1) and 1.16(2). 
  
 1.17 Single Loan. All Loans to Borrower and all of the other Obligations of Borrower
arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall constitute one general obligation of Borrower secured, until the Termination Date, by all of its Collateral. 
  
 SECTION 2 — CONDITIONS PRECEDENT 
  
 2.1 Conditions to the Initial Loans. Lender shall not be obligated to make any Loan or incur any Letter of Credit Obligations on the Closing Date, or to take,
fulfill, or perform any other action hereunder, until the following conditions have been satisfied or provided for in a manner satisfactory to Agent, or waived in writing by Agent: 
  
 (1) Credit Agreement; Loan Documents. This Agreement or counterparts hereof shall have been duly executed by, and delivered
to, Borrower, Agent and Lender; and Agent shall have received such documents, instruments, agreements and legal opinions as Agent shall reasonably request in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, including all those listed in the Closing Checklist attached hereto as Annex D, each in form and substance satisfactory to Agent. 
  
 (2) Repayment of Prior Lender Obligations. Agent shall have received written confirmation satisfactory to Lender confirming that all of the Prior Lender
Obligations will be repaid in full from the proceeds of the Term Loan and the initial Revolving Credit Advance. 
  

 - 15 - 








 (3) Approvals. Agent shall have received (a) satisfactory evidence that Borrower has obtained all required
consents and approvals of all Persons including all requisite Governmental Authorities, to the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or (b) an officer’s certificate in form and substance satisfactory
to Agent affirming that no such consents or approvals are required. 
  
 (4)
Opening Availability. The Eligible Accounts, Eligible Inventory and Eligible WIP Inventory of Borrower supporting the initial Revolving Credit Advance and the amount of the Reserves to be established on the Closing Date shall be
sufficient in value, as determined by Agent, to provide Borrower with borrowing availability against the Borrowing Base, after giving effect to the initial Revolving Credit Advance and Letter of Credit Obligations incurred (if any) (on a pro forma
basis, with trade payables being paid currently, and expenses and liabilities being paid in the ordinary course of business and without acceleration of sales), of at least $2,000,000. 
  
 (5) Payment of Fees. Borrower shall have paid the Fees required to be paid on the Closing Date in the respective amounts
specified in Section 1.9 and the Fee Letter, and shall have reimbursed Agent for all fees, costs and expenses of closing presented as of the Closing Date.

 (1) Borrower shall, at its sole cost and expense, maintain the policies of insurance
described on Disclosure Schedule 3.17 as in effect on the date hereof or otherwise in form and amounts and with insurers acceptable to Agent. If Borrower at any time or times hereafter shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies of
insurance required above or to pay all premiums relating thereto, Agent may at any time or times thereafter obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premiums and take any other action with respect thereto which Agent deems
advisable. Agent shall have no obligation to obtain insurance for Borrower or pay any premiums therefor. By doing so, Agent shall not be deemed to have waived any Default or Event of Default arising from Borrower’s failure to maintain such
insurance or pay any premiums therefor. All sums so disbursed, including legal fees, court costs and other charges related thereto, shall be payable on demand by Borrower to Agent and shall be additional Obligations hereunder secured by the

maintained by Borrower or any laws affecting the potential liability of Borrower) to require additional forms and limits of insurance to, in Agent’s reasonable discretion, adequately protect Agent’s interests in all or any portion of the
Collateral and to ensure that Borrower is protected by insurance in amounts and with coverage customary for its industry. If requested by Agent, Borrower shall deliver to Agent from time to time a report of a reputable insurance broker, satisfactory
to Agent, with respect to its insurance policies. 
  
 (3) Borrower irrevocably
makes, constitutes and appoints Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by Agent), so long as any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or the anticipated insurance proceeds exceed $1,000,000, as
Borrower’s true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact for the purpose of making, settling and adjusting claims under such “All Risk” policies of insurance, endorsing the name of Borrower on any cheque or other item of payment for the
proceeds of such “All Risk” policies of insurance and for making all determinations and decisions with respect to such “All Risk” policies of insurance. Agent shall have no duty to exercise any rights or powers granted to it
pursuant to the foregoing power-of-attorney. Borrower shall promptly notify Agent of any loss, damage, or destruction to the 

  

 - 25 - 








 
Collateral in the amount of $150,000 or more, whether or not covered by insurance. After deducting from such proceeds the expenses, if any, incurred by Agent
in the collection or handling thereof, Agent may, at its option, apply such proceeds to the reduction of the Obligations in accordance with Section 1.3(4), or permit or require Borrower to use such money, or any part thereof, to replace, repair,
restore or rebuild the Collateral in a diligent and expeditious manner with materials and workmanship of substantially the same quality as existed before the loss, damage or destruction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the casualty giving rise to
such insurance proceeds would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and such insurance proceeds do not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate, Agent shall permit Borrower to replace, restore, repair or rebuild the property;
provided that if Borrower has not completed or entered into binding agreements to complete such replacement, restoration, repair or rebuilding within 180 days of such casualty, Agent may apply such insurance proceeds to the Obligations in
accordance with Section 1.3(4). All insurance proceeds which are to be made available to Borrower to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral shall be applied by Agent to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loan
(which application shall not result in a permanent reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment) and upon such application, Agent shall establish a Reserve against the Borrowing Base in an amount equal to the amount of such proceeds so applied.
Thereafter, such funds shall be made available to Borrower to provide funds to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral as follows: (a) Borrower shall request a Revolving Credit Advance be made to Borrower in the amount requested to be
released; (b) so long as the conditions set forth in Section 2.2 have been met, Agent shall make such Revolving Credit Advance; and (c) in the case of insurance proceeds applied against the Revolving Loan, the Reserve established with respect to

 5.5 Compliance with Laws. 
  
 (1) Borrower shall comply with all federal, provincial, local and foreign laws and
regulations applicable to it, including those relating to licensing and employment and labour matters and Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits, except to the extent that the failure to comply, individually or in the aggregate, could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 (2) For each
existing Canadian Pension Plan, Borrower shall ensure that such plan retains its registered status under and is administered in a timely manner in all material respects in accordance with the applicable pension plan text, funding agreement, the ITA
and all other applicable laws. 
  
 (3) For each Canadian Pension Plan hereafter
adopted by Borrower which is required to be registered under the ITA or any other applicable laws, Borrower shall use its best efforts to seek and receive confirmation in writing from the applicable Governmental Authorities to the effect that such
plan is unconditionally registered under the ITA and such other applicable laws.

 - 26 - 








 
fiduciary, funding, investment and administration obligations) required to be performed in connection with such plan and the funding media therefor.

  
 (5) Borrower shall deliver to Lender if requested by Agent, promptly after the
filing thereof by Borrower with any applicable Governmental Authority, copies of each annual and other return, report or valuation with respect to each Canadian Pension Plan; promptly after receipt thereof, a copy of any direction, order, notice,

contributing. 
  
 5.6 Supplemental Disclosure. From time to time as may be
requested by Agent (which request will not be made more frequently than once each year absent the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default), Borrower shall supplement each Disclosure Schedule hereto, or any representation
herein or in any other Loan Document, with respect to any matter hereafter arising which, if existing or occurring at the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in such Disclosure Schedule or as an exception to
such representation or which is necessary to correct any information in such Disclosure Schedule or representation which has been rendered inaccurate thereby (and, in the case of any supplements to any Disclosure Schedule, such Disclosure Schedule
shall be appropriately marked to show the changes made therein); provided that (1) no such supplement to any such Disclosure Schedule or representation shall be or be deemed a waiver of any Default or Event of Default resulting from the
matters disclosed therein, except as consented to by Agent in writing; and (2) no supplement shall be required as to representations and warranties that relate solely to the Closing Date. 
  
 5.7 Intellectual Property. Borrower will conduct its business and affairs without infringement of or interference with any
Intellectual Property of any other Person in any material respect. 
  
 5.8
Environmental Matters. Borrower shall and shall cause each Person within its control to: (1) conduct its operations and keep and maintain its Real Estate in compliance with all Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits other than
noncompliance which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; (2) implement any and all investigation, remediation, removal and response actions which are appropriate or necessary to maintain the value and marketability of
the Real Estate or to otherwise comply with Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits pertaining to the presence, generation, treatment, storage, use, disposal, transportation or Release of any Hazardous Material on, at, in, under, above, to,
from or about any of its Real Estate; (3) notify Agent promptly after Borrower becomes aware of any violation of Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits or any Release on, at, in, under, above, to, from or about any Real Estate which is
reasonably likely to result in Environmental Liabilities in excess of $50,000; and (4) promptly forward to Agent a copy of any order, notice, request for information or any communication or report received by Borrower in connection with any such
violation or Release or any other matter relating to any 

  

 - 27 - 








 
Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits that could reasonably be expected to result in Environmental Liabilities in excess of $50,000, in each case
whether or not any Governmental Authority has taken or threatened any action in connection with any such violation, Release or other matter. If Agent at any time has a reasonable basis to believe that there may be a violation of any Environmental
Laws or Environmental Permits by Borrower or any Environmental Liability arising thereunder, or a Release of Hazardous Materials on, at, in, under, above, to, from or about any of its Real Estate, which, in each case, could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect, then Borrower shall, upon Agent’s written request (a) cause the performance of such environmental audits including subsurface sampling of soil and groundwater, and preparation of such environmental reports, at
Borrower’s expense, as Agent may from time to time reasonably request, which shall be conducted by reputable environmental consulting firms reasonably acceptable to Agent and shall be in form and substance acceptable to Agent, and (b) permit
Agent or its representatives to have access to all Real Estate for the purpose of conducting such environmental audits and testing as Agent deems appropriate, including subsurface sampling of soil and groundwater. Borrower shall reimburse Agent for
the costs of such audits and tests and the same will constitute a part of the Obligations secured hereunder. 
  
 5.9 Landlords’ Agreements, Mortgagee Agreements and Bailee Letters. 
  
 (1) Borrower shall obtain a landlord’s agreement, mortgagee agreement or bailee letter, as applicable, from the lessor of each leased property or mortgagee of owned
property or with respect to any warehouse, processor or converter facility or other location where Collateral is located, which agreement or letter shall contain a waiver or subordination of all Liens or claims that the landlord, mortgagee or bailee
may assert against the Collateral at that location, and shall otherwise be satisfactory in form and substance to Agent. With respect to such locations or warehouse space leased or owned as of the Closing Date and thereafter, if Agent has not
received a landlord or mortgagee agreement or bailee letter as of the Closing Date (or, if later, as of the date such location is acquired or leased), Borrower’s Eligible Inventory and Eligible WIP Inventory at that location shall, in
Agent’s discretion, be excluded from the Borrowing Base or be subject to such Reserves as may be established by Agent in its reasonable credit judgment; provided that, the Borrowing Base shall be subject to a Reserve on account thereof equal to
the aggregate amount of three (3) months’ rent and any other applicable charges for such location. After the Closing Date, no real property or warehouse space shall be leased or acquired by Borrower and no Inventory shall be shipped to a
processor or converter under arrangements established after the Closing Date without the prior written consent of Agent (which consent, in Agent’s discretion, may be conditioned upon the exclusion from the Borrowing Base of Eligible Inventory
and Eligible WIP Inventory at that location or the establishment of Reserves acceptable to Agent) or, unless and until a satisfactory landlord or mortgagee agreement or bailee letter, as appropriate, shall first have been obtained with respect to
such location. Borrower shall timely and fully pay and perform its obligations under all leases and other agreements with respect to each leased location or public warehouse where any Collateral is or may be located. 
  
 (2) If Borrower acquires any real property after the Closing Date, Borrower shall deliver to
Agent concurrently with or immediately following such acquisition a first ranking Mortgage covering such real property (subject to Permitted Encumbrances), title insurance policies, a legal 

  

 - 28 - 








 
opinion, current as-built surveys, zoning letters and certificates of occupancy, in each case, in form and substance substantially similar to those that
Borrower is obligated to deliver to Agent on the Closing Date in respect of certain of Borrower’s real property owned by Borrower on such date.

any other Loan Document.

of Borrower to Borrower (“Intercompany Loans”) described in Disclosure Schedule 6.3 provided that (A) Borrower shall record all intercompany transactions on its books and records in a manner satisfactory to Agent; (B)
the obligations of Borrower under any such Indebtedness shall be subordinated to the Obligations of Borrower hereunder pursuant to an agreement between Agent and the lending Affiliate satisfactory in form and substance to Agent and, if interest
bearing, bear interest at reasonable rates of interest acceptable to Agent; and (C) no Default or Event of Default would occur and be continuing after giving effect to any such proposed intercompany loan.

transaction with any of its Affiliates except in the ordinary course of and pursuant to the reasonable requirements of Borrower’s business and upon fair and reasonable terms that are no less favourable to Borrower than would be obtained in a
comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person not an Affiliate of Borrower. In addition, prior to entering into any transaction with any of its Affiliates (other than for the purchase and sale of goods that are in compliance with the first
sentence of this Section 6.4(1)), the terms of each such transaction must be disclosed in advance to Agent. All such transactions existing as of the date hereof are described on Disclosure Schedule 6.4(1).

is incurred within twenty (20) days following such purchase and does not exceed 100% of the purchase price of the subject assets). In addition, Borrower shall not become a party to any agreement, note, indenture or instrument, or take any other

undertakings, agreements, covenants, warranties and representations of or binding upon Borrower, and all rights of Agent and Lender, all as contained in the Loan Documents, shall not terminate or expire, but rather shall survive any such termination
or cancellation and shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date; provided however, that in all events the provisions of Section 11, the payment obligations under Sections 1.15 and 1.16, and the indemnities contained in

 SECTION 9 — ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATIONS; APPOINTMENT OF AGENT 
  
 9.1 Assignment and Participations. 
  
 (1) Subject to the terms of this Section 9.1, any Lender may make an assignment to a
Qualified Assignee of, or sale of participations in, at any time or times, the Loan Documents, Loans, Letter of Credit Obligations and any Commitment or any portion thereof or interest therein, including any Lender’s rights, title, interests,
remedies, powers or duties thereunder. Any assignment by a Lender shall: (i) require the consent of Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed with respect to a Qualified Assignee) and the execution of an assignment agreement
(an “Assignment Agreement” substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 9.1(a) and otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to, and acknowledged by, Agent; (ii) be conditioned on such assignee Lender
representing to the assigning Lender and Agent that it is purchasing the applicable Loans to be assigned to it for its own account, for investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution thereof; (iii) after giving effect to any such
partial assignment, the assignee Lender shall have Commitments in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000 and the assigning Lender shall have retained Commitments in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000; (iv) include a payment to Agent of an
assignment fee of $3,500 and (v) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, require the consent of Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that no such consent shall be required for an assignment
to a Qualified Assignee. In the case of an assignment by a Lender under this Section 9.1, the assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment, the same rights, benefits and obligations as all other Lenders hereunder. The assigning
Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its Commitments or assigned portion thereof from and after the date of such assignment. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that any assignment shall give rise to a direct
obligation of Borrower to the assignee and that the assignee shall be considered to be a “Lender”. In all instances, each Lender’s liability to make Loans hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to such
Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the applicable Commitment. In the event Agent or any Lender assigns or otherwise transfers all or any part of the Obligations, in accordance with this Section 9.1, Agent or any such Lender shall so notify Borrower and
Borrower shall, upon the request of Agent or such Lender, execute new Notes in exchange for the Notes, if any, being assigned. 
  
 (2) Any participation by a Lender of all or any part of its Commitments shall be made with the understanding that all amounts payable by Borrower hereunder shall be
determined as if that Lender had not sold such participation, and that the holder of any such participation shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except actions directly affecting (i) any reduction
in the principal amount of, or interest rate or Fees payable with respect to, any Loan in which such holder participates, (ii) any extension of the scheduled amortization of the principal amount of any Loan in which such holder participates or the
final maturity date thereof, and (iii) any release of all or substantially all of the Collateral (other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Collateral Documents or the other Loan Documents). Neither Agent nor any Lender (other
than the Lender selling a participation) shall have any duty to any participant and may continue to deal solely with the Lender selling a participation as if no such sale had occurred. 
  

 - 37 - 








 (3) Except as expressly provided in this Section 9.1, no Lender shall, as between Borrower and that Lender, or
Agent and that Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any sale, assignment, transfer or negotiation of, or granting of participation in, all or any part of the Loans, the Notes or other Obligations owed to such
Lender. 
  
 (4) Borrower shall assist any Lender permitted to sell assignments or
participations under this Section 9.1 as reasonably required to enable the assigning or selling Lender to effect any such assignment or participation, including the execution and delivery of any and all agreements, notes and other documents
and instruments as shall be requested and the preparation of informational materials for, and the participation of management in meetings with, potential assignees or participants. Borrower shall certify the correctness, completeness and accuracy of
all descriptions of Borrower and its affairs contained in any selling materials provided by it and all other information provided by it and included in such materials, except that any Projections delivered by Borrower shall only be certified by
Borrower as having been prepared by Borrower in compliance with the representations contained in Section 3.4(2). 
  
 (5) A Lender may furnish any information concerning Borrower in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective
assignees and participants); provided that such Lender shall obtain from assignees or participants confidentiality covenants substantially equivalent to those contained in Section 11.8. 
  
 (6) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Lender or SPC (as
hereinafter defined) shall assign or sell participations in any portion of its Loans or Commitments to a potential Lender or participant, if, as of the date of the proposed assignment or sale, the Borrower would be subject to any payment or
indemnity obligations or liability with respect to capital adequacy or similar requirements under Section 1.16(1), increased costs under Section 1.16(2), or withholding taxes in accordance with Section 1.15(1).

  
 (7) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a
“Granting Lender”), may, provided same would not result in any payment or indemnity obligation or liability on the part of Borrower in respect of capital adequacy or similar requirements under Section1.16(1), increased costs under
Section 1.16(2) or withholding taxes in accordance with Section 1.15(1), grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing by the Granting Lender to Agent and Borrower, the option to provide to
Borrower all or any part of any Loans that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan; and (ii)
if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize
the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. No SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with
the Granting Lender). Any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, Borrower and Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any
financial institutions (subject to the terms of Section 9.1(6) provided same is consented to by Borrower and Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and


  

 - 38 - 








 
(ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any
surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. This Section 9.1(7) may not be amended without the prior written consent of each Granting Lender, all or any of whose Loans are being funded by an SPC at the time of such
amendment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including without limitation, the approval of any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or the obligation to pay any amount otherwise payable by
the Granting Lender under the Loan Documents, continue to be the Lender of record hereunder. 
  
 9.2 Appointment of Agent. GE Canada is hereby appointed to act on behalf of all Lenders as Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this Section 9.2 are solely for the
benefit of Agent and Lenders and neither Borrower nor any other Person shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
Agent shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrower or any other Person. Agent shall have no duties or
responsibilities except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature and Agent shall not have, or be deemed to have, by reason of this Agreement,
any other Loan Document or otherwise a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for failure to
disclose, any information relating to Borrower or any Account Debtor that is communicated to or obtained by GE Canada or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Neither Agent nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective officers, directors,
employees, agents or representatives shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or in connection herewith or therewith, except for damages caused by its or their own
gross negligence or wilful misconduct. 
  
 If Agent shall request instructions
from Requisite Lenders, Requisite Revolving Lenders, Supermajority Revolving Lenders or all affected Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then Agent shall
be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until Agent shall have received instructions from Requisite Lenders, Requisite Revolving Lenders, Supermajority Revolving Lenders, or all affected Lenders, as the case may be, and
Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (a) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent, be
contrary to law or the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (b) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent, expose Agent to Environmental Liabilities or (c) if Agent shall not first be indemnified to its satisfaction against any
and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or
refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Loan Document in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Lenders, Requisite Revolving Lenders, Supermajority Revolving Lenders or all affected Lenders, as applicable. 
  

 - 39 - 








 9.3 Agent’s Reliance, Etc. Neither Agent nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective
directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for damages caused by its or their own gross negligence
or wilful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent: (a) may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof signed by such payee and in form
reasonably satisfactory to Agent; (b) may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents; (d) 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 Borrower or to inspect the
Collateral (including the books and records) of Borrower; (e) 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 (f) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing
(which may be by telecopy, telegram, cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. 
  
 9.4 GE Canada and Affiliates. With respect to its Commitments hereunder, GE Canada shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include GE Canada in its individual capacity. GE
Canada and its Affiliates may lend money to, invest in, and generally engage in any kind of business with Borrower, any of its Affiliates and any Person who may do business with or own securities of Borrower or any such Affiliate, all as if GE
Canada were not Agent and without any duty to account therefor to Lenders. GE Canada and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for
the same to Lenders. 
  
 9.5 Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender
acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and based on the Financial Statements referred to in Section 3.4(1) and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its
own credit and financial analysis of Borrower and its own decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and
information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement. Each Lender acknowledges the potential conflict of interest of each other Lender as a result of
Lenders holding disproportionate interests in the Loans, and expressly consents to, and waives any claim based upon, such conflict of interest. 
  
 9.6 Indemnification. Lenders agree to indemnify Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower and without limiting the obligations of Borrower hereunder),
ratably according to their 

  

 - 40 - 








 
respective Pro Rata Shares, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted to be taken by Agent in
connection therewith; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from Agent’s gross
negligence or wilful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by Agent in connection with
the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement and each
other Loan Document, to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by Borrower. 
  
 9.7 Successor Agent. Agent may resign at any time by giving not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have
the right to appoint a successor Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the resigning Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then
the resigning Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a Lender, if a Lender is willing to accept such appointment, or otherwise shall be a commercial bank or financial institution or a subsidiary of a commercial
bank or financial institution if such commercial bank or financial institution is organized under the laws of Canada or any province thereof and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $300,000,000. If no successor Agent has been appointed
pursuant to the foregoing, within thirty (30) days after the date such notice of resignation was given by the resigning Agent, such resignation shall become effective and the Requisite Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of Agent
hereunder until such time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided above. Any successor Agent appointed by Requisite Lenders hereunder shall be subject to the approval of Borrower, such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed; provided that such approval shall not be required if a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent
shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Agent. Upon the earlier of the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent or the effective date of the resigning
Agent’s resignation, the resigning Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, except that any indemnity rights or other rights in favour of such resigning Agent shall continue.
After any resigning Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. 
  
 9.8 Setoff and Sharing of Payments. In addition to any
rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and subject to Section 9.9(f), each Lender is hereby authorized at
any time or from time to time, without prior notice to Borrower or to any Person other than Agent, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to offset and to 

  

 - 41 - 








 
appropriate and to apply any and all balances held by it at any of its offices for the account of Borrower (regardless of whether such balances are then due
to Borrower) and any other properties or assets at any time held or owing by that Lender or that holder to or for the credit or for the account of Borrower against and on account of any of the Obligations that are not paid when due; provided that
the Lender exercising such offset rights shall give notice thereof to the Borrower promptly after exercising such rights. Any Lender exercising a right of setoff or otherwise receiving any payment on account of the Obligations in excess of its Pro
Rata Share thereof shall purchase for cash (and the other Lenders or holders shall sell) such participations in each such other Lender’s or holder’s Pro Rata Share of the Obligations as would be necessary to cause such Lender to share the
amount so offset or otherwise received with each other Lender or holder in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, (other than offset rights exercised by any Lender with respect to Sections 1.13, 1.15 or 1.16). Borrower agrees, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, that (a) any Lender may exercise its right to offset with respect to amounts in excess of its Pro Rata Share of the Obligations and may, subject to Section 9.1(6), sell participations in such amounts so offset to
other Lenders and holders and (b) any Lender so purchasing a participation in the Loans made or other Obligations held by other Lenders or holders may exercise all rights of offset, bankers’ lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to
such participation as fully as if such Lender or holder were a direct holder of the Loans and the other Obligations in the amount of such participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all or any portion of the offset amount or payment otherwise
received is thereafter recovered from the Lender that has exercised the right of offset, the purchase of participations by that Lender shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored without interest. 
  
 9.9 Advances; Payments; Non-Funding Lenders; Information; Actions in Concert.

  
 (a) Advances; Payments. 
  
 (i) Agent shall notify Revolving Lenders, promptly after
receipt of a Notice of Revolving Advance and in any event prior to 1:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the date such Notice of Revolving Advance is received, by telecopy, telephone or other similar form of transmission. Each Revolving Lender shall make the
amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Credit Advance available to Agent in same day funds by wire transfer to Agent’s account as set forth in Annex H not later than 3:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the requested
funding date. After receipt of such wire transfers (or, in the Agent’s sole discretion, before receipt of such wire transfers), subject to the terms hereof, Agent shall make the requested Revolving Credit Advance to Borrower. All payments by
each Revolving Lender shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. 
  
 (ii) Not less than once during each calendar week or more frequently at Agent’s election (each, a “Settlement
Date”), Agent shall advise each Lender by telephone, or telecopy of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of principal, interest and Fees paid for the benefit of Lenders with respect to each applicable Loan. Provided that each
Lender has funded all payments and Advances required to be made by it and purchased all participations required to be purchased by it under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as of such Settlement Date, Agent shall pay to each Lender such
Lender’s Pro Rata Share of principal, interest and Fees paid by Borrower since the previous Settlement Date for the benefit of such Lender on the Loans held by it. To the extent that any Lender (a “Non-Funding Lender”) has
failed to fund all such 

  

 - 42 - 








 
payments and Advances or failed to fund the purchase of all such participations, Agent shall be entitled to set off the funding short-fall against that
Non-Funding Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments received from Borrower. Such payments shall be made by wire transfer to such Lender’s account (as specified by such Lender in Annex H or the applicable Assignment Agreement) not
later than 2:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the next Business Day following each Settlement Date. 
  
 (b) Availability of Lender’s Pro Rata Share. Agent may assume that each Revolving Lender will make its Pro Rata Share of each Revolving Credit Advance available to Agent on each funding date. If such Pro
Rata Share is not, in fact, paid to Agent by such Revolving Lender when due, Agent will be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Lender without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. Nothing in this Section
9.9(b) or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to require Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Revolving Lender or to relieve any Revolving Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or
to prejudice any rights that Borrower may have against any Revolving Lender as a result of any default by such Revolving Lender hereunder. To the extent that Agent advances funds to Borrower on behalf of any Revolving Lender and is not reimbursed
therefor on the same Business Day as such Advance is made, Agent shall be entitled to retain for its account all interest accrued on such Advance until reimbursed by the applicable Revolving Lender. 
  
 (c) Return of Payments. 
  
 (i) If Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement
in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Agent from Borrower and such related payment is not received by Agent, then Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand without setoff,
counterclaim or deduction of any kind. 
  
 (ii)
If Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Agent under this Agreement must be returned to Borrower or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Agent has distributed to such Lender, together
with interest at such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to Borrower or such other Person, without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. 
  
 (d) Non-Funding Lenders. The failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make any Revolving Credit Advance or any payment required by it hereunder, on the
date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender (each such other Revolving Lender, an “Other Lender”) of its obligations to make such Advance or purchase such participation on such date, but neither any Other Lender nor
Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make an Advance, purchase a participation or make any other payment required hereunder. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, a Non-Funding Lender shall not
have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document or constitute a “Lender” or a “Revolving Lender” (or be included in the calculation of “Requisite Lenders”, “Requisite Revolving
Lenders” or “Supermajority Revolving Lenders” hereunder) for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document. At Borrower’s 

  

 - 43 - 








 
request, Agent or a Person acceptable to Agent shall have the right with Agent’s consent and in Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have no
obligation) to purchase from any Non-Funding Lender, and each Non-Funding Lender agrees that it shall, at Agent’s request, sell and assign to Agent or such Person, all of the Commitments of that Non-Funding Lender for an amount equal to the
principal balance of all Loans held by such Non-Funding Lender and all accrued interest and fees with respect thereto through the date of sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed Assignment Agreement. 
  
 (e) Dissemination of Information. Agent shall use reasonable efforts
to provide Lenders with the Financial Statements and Collateral Reports referred to in Annexes E and F hereto, any notice of Default or Event of Default received by Agent from, or delivered by Agent to, Borrower, with notice of any Event of Default
of which Agent has actually become aware and with notice of any action taken by Agent following any Event of Default; provided, that Agent shall not be liable to any Lender for any failure to do so, except to the extent that such failure is
attributable to Agent’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct. 
  
 (f) Actions in Concert. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, each Lender hereby agrees with each other Lender that no Lender shall take any action to protect or enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement
or the Notes (including exercising any rights of setoff) without first obtaining the prior written consent of Agent and Requisite Lenders, it being the intent of Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement and the
Notes shall be taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of Agent or Requisite Lenders. 
  
 SECTION 10 — SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS 
  
 10.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding on and shall inure to the benefit of Borrower, Agent, Lenders and their respective successors and assigns (including, in the case of Borrower,
a debtor-in-possession on behalf of Borrower), except as otherwise provided herein or therein. Borrower shall not assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise convey its rights, benefits, obligations or duties hereunder or under any of the other Loan
Documents without the prior express written consent of Agent. Any such purported assignment, transfer, hypothecation or other conveyance by Borrower without the prior express written consent of Agent shall be void. The terms and provisions of this
Agreement are for the purpose of defining the relative rights and obligations of Borrower, Agent and Lender with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and no Person shall be a third party beneficiary of any of the terms and provisions of
this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. 
  
 SECTION 11 —
MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 11.1 Complete Agreement; Modification of Agreement.
The Loan Documents constitute the complete agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter thereof and may not be modified, altered or amended except as set forth in Section 11.2 below. Any letter of interest, commitment letter and
fee letter between Borrower and Lender or any of their respective affiliates, predating this Agreement and relating to a financing of substantially similar form, purpose or effect shall be superseded by this Agreement.

 11.2 Amendments and Waivers. 
  
 (1) Except for actions expressly permitted to be taken by Agent, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent and Borrower, and by Requisite Lenders, Requisite Revolving Lenders,
Supermajority Revolving Lenders or all affected Lenders, as applicable. Except as set forth in clauses (2) and (3) below, all such amendments, modifications, terminations or waivers requiring the consent of any Lenders shall require the
written consent of Requisite Lenders. 
  
 (2) No amendment, modification,
termination or waiver of or consent with respect to any provision of this Agreement that increases the percentage advance rates set forth in the definition of the Borrowing Base, or that makes less restrictive the nondiscretionary criteria for
exclusion from Eligible Accounts and Eligible Inventory set forth in Sections 1.6 and 1.7, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent, Supermajority Revolving Lenders and Borrower. No amendment, modification,
termination or waiver of or consent with respect to any provision of this Agreement that waives compliance with the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.2 to the making of any Loan or the incurrence of any Letter of Credit Obligations

of Default shall be effective for purposes of the conditions precedent to the making of Loans or the incurrence of Letter of Credit Obligations set forth in Section 2.2 unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent, Requisite
Revolving Lenders and Borrower. 
  
 Except as otherwise expressly
provided in this Agreement, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall, unless in writing and signed by Agent and each Lender directly affected thereby: (i) increase the principal amount of any Lender’s Commitment (which action
shall be deemed only to affect those Lenders whose Commitments are increased and may be approved by Requisite Lenders, including those lenders whose Commitments are increased); (ii) reduce the principal of, rate of interest on or Fees payable with
respect to any Loan or Letter of Credit Obligations of any affected Lender; (iii) extend any scheduled payment date (other than payment dates of mandatory prepayments under Section 1.3(b)(ii)-(iv)) or final maturity date of the principal

amount of the Loans that shall be required for Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder; and (vii) amend or waive this Section 11.2 or the definitions of the terms “Requisite Lenders”, “Requisite Revolving
Lenders” or “Supermajority Revolving Lenders” insofar as such definitions affect the substance of this Section 11.2. Furthermore, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver affecting the rights or duties of Agent or L/C
Issuer under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be effective unless in writing and signed by Agent or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, in addition 

  

 - 45 - 








 
to Lenders required hereinabove to take such action. Each amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and
for the specific purpose for which it was given. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall be required for Agent to take additional Collateral pursuant to any Loan Document. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any
provision of any Note shall be effective without the written concurrence of the holder of that Note. No notice to or demand on Borrower in any case shall entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.
Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 11.2 shall be binding upon each holder of the Notes at the time outstanding and each future holder of the Notes. 
  
 (3) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a
“Proposed Change”): 
  
 (i)
requiring the consent of all affected Lenders, the consent of Requisite Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in this clause
(i) and in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) below being referred to as “Non Consenting Lender”); 
  
 (ii) requiring the consent of Supermajority Revolving Lenders, the consent of Requisite Lenders is obtained, but the consent of
Supermajority Revolving Lenders is not obtained;

 ANNEX B (Section 1.2) 
  
 to 
  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT 
  
 LETTERS OF CREDIT 
  
 (1) Issuance. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, Lender agrees to incur, from time to time prior to the Commitment Termination Date, upon
the request of Borrower and for Borrower’s account, Letter of Credit Obligations by causing Letters of Credit to be issued (by a bank or other legally authorized Person selected by or acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion (each, an
“L/C Issuer”)) for Borrower’s account in Dollars and guaranteed by Lender; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of all such Letter of Credit Obligations shall not at any time exceed the least of (i) One
Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (the “L/C Sublimit”), and (ii) the Maximum Amount less the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Advances and (iii) the Borrowing Base less the sum of (a) the
aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Advances. No such Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date which is more than one year following the date of issuance thereof, and Lender shall not be under any obligation to incur
Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of, or purchase risk participations in, any Letter of Credit having an expiry date which is later than the Commitment Termination Date. 
  
 (2) Revolving Credit Advances Automatic. In the event that Lender shall make any payment on or pursuant to any Letter of
Credit Obligation, such payment shall then be deemed automatically to constitute a Revolving Credit Advance regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and notwithstanding Borrower’s failure to
satisfy the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2. 
  
 (3) Cash
Collateral. If Borrower is required to provide cash collateral for any Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to the Agreement prior to the Commitment Termination Date, Borrower will pay to Lender cash or cash equivalents acceptable to Lender
(“Cash Equivalents”) in an amount equal to 105% of the maximum amount then available to be drawn under each applicable Letter of Credit outstanding. Such funds or Cash Equivalents shall be held by Lender in an interest bearing cash
collateral account (the “Cash Collateral Account”) maintained at a bank or financial institution acceptable to Lender. The Cash Collateral Account shall be in the name of Borrower and shall be pledged to, and subject to the control
of Lender in a manner satisfactory to Lender. Borrower hereby pledges and grants to Lender a security interest in all such funds and Cash Equivalents held in the Cash Collateral Account from time to time and all proceeds thereof, as security for the
payment of all amounts due in respect of the Letter of Credit Obligations and other Obligations, whether or not then due. The Agreement, including this Annex B, shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. 
  
 If any Letter of Credit Obligations, whether or not then due and payable,
shall for any reason be outstanding on the Commitment Termination Date, Borrower shall either (i) provide cash collateral therefor in the manner described above, or (ii) cause all such Letters of Credit and guarantees thereof to be cancelled and
returned, or (iii) deliver a stand-by letter (or letters) of credit in guarantee of such Letter of Credit Obligations, which stand-by letter (or letters) of credit shall be of like tenor and duration (plus thirty (30) additional days) as, and in an
amount equal to 

  









 
105% of the aggregate maximum amount then available to be drawn under, the Letters of Credit to which such outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations relate
and shall be issued by a Person, and shall be subject to such terms and conditions, as are be satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion. 
  
 From time to time after funds are deposited in the Cash Collateral Account by Borrower, whether before or after the Commitment Termination Date, Lender
may apply such funds or Cash Equivalents then held in the Cash Collateral Account to the payment of any amounts, in such order as Lender may elect, as shall be or shall become due and payable by Borrower to Lender with respect to such Letter of
Credit Obligations of Borrower and, upon the satisfaction in full of all Letter of Credit Obligations of Borrower, to any other Obligations then due and payable. 
  
 Neither Borrower nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds
or Cash Equivalents held in the Cash Collateral Account, except that upon the termination of all Letter of Credit Obligations and the payment of all amounts payable by Borrower to Lender in respect thereof, any funds remaining in the Cash Collateral
Account shall be applied to other Obligations when due and owing and upon payment in full of such Obligations, any remaining amount shall be paid to Borrower or as otherwise required by law. 
  
 (4) Fees and Expenses. Borrower agrees to pay to Lender as compensation to
Lender for Letter of Credit Obligations incurred hereunder, (x) all costs and expenses incurred by Lender on account of such Letter of Credit Obligations (provided that such costs and expenses are reasonable so long as an Event of Default has not
occurred that is continuing), and (y) for each month during which any Letter of Credit Obligation shall remain outstanding, a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) in an amount equal to one and three-quarters percent (1.75%) per annum
multiplied by the maximum amount available from time to time to be drawn under the applicable Letter of Credit. Such fee shall be paid to Lender in arrears, on the first day of each month and shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of
days elapsed in the previous month on which the Letter of Credit Obligations were outstanding and a year of 365 days. In addition, Borrower shall pay to any L/C Issuer, on demand, such fees (including all per annum fees), charges and expenses of
such L/C Issuer in respect of the issuance, negotiation, acceptance, amendment, transfer and payment of such Letter of Credit or otherwise payable pursuant to the application and related documentation under which such Letter of Credit is issued.

  
 (5) Request for Incurrence of Letter of Credit Obligations.
Borrower shall give Lender at least two (2) Business Days prior written notice requesting the incurrence of any Letter of Credit Obligation, specifying the date such Letter of Credit Obligation is to be incurred, identifying the beneficiary to which
such Letter of Credit Obligation relates and describing the nature of the transactions proposed to be supported thereby. The notice shall be accompanied by the form of the Letter of Credit (which shall be acceptable to the L/C Issuer) to be
guaranteed and, to the extent not previously delivered to Lender, copies of all agreements between Borrower and the L/C Issuer pertaining to the issuance of Letters of Credit. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Letter of
Credit applications by Borrower and approvals by Lender and the L/C Issuer may be made and transmitted pursuant to electronic codes and security measures mutually agreed upon and established by and among Borrower, Lender and the L/C Issuer.

  

 - 2 - 








 (6) Obligation Absolute. The obligation of Borrower to reimburse Lender for payments made with respect to
any Letter of Credit Obligation shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, without necessity of presentment, demand, protest or other formalities. Such obligations of Borrower shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms hereof under
all circumstances including the following circumstances: 
  
 (a)
any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or the Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other agreement; 
  
 (b) the existence of any claim, set-off, defence or other right which Borrower or any of its Affiliates may at any time have against a beneficiary or any
transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons or entities for whom any such transferee may be acting), Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection with the Agreement, the Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or therein
or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between Borrower or any of its Affiliates and the beneficiary for which the Letter of Credit was procured); 
  
 (c) any draft, demand, certificate or any other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged,
fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; 
  
 (d) payment by Lender (except as otherwise expressly provided in paragraph 7(b)(C) below) or any L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit or guarantee
thereof against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or such guarantee; 
  
 (e) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, which is similar to any of the foregoing; or 
  
 (f) the fact that a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing. 
  
 (7) Indemnification; Nature of Lender’s Duties.

  
 (a) In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in
the Agreement, Borrower hereby agrees to pay and to protect, indemnify, and save harmless Lender from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and all
allocated costs of internal counsel) which Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (A) the issuance of any Letter of Credit or guarantee thereof, or (B) the failure of Lender seeking indemnification or of any L/C
Issuer to honour a demand for payment under any Letter of Credit or guarantee thereof as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or Governmental Authority, in each case
other than to the extent solely as a result of the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). 
  


 - 3 - 








 (b) As between Lender and Borrower, Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of
any Letter of Credit by beneficiaries of any Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Lender shall not be responsible: (A) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy,
genuineness or legal effect of any document issued by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent
or forged; (B) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any 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; (C) for failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to demand payment under such Letter of Credit; provided that, in the case of any payment by
Lender under any Letter of Credit or guarantee thereof, Lender shall be liable to the extent such payment was made solely as a result of its gross negligence or wilful misconduct (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) in
determining that the demand for payment under such Letter of Credit or guarantee thereof complies on its face with any applicable requirements for a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit or guarantee thereof; (D) for 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; (E) for errors in interpretation of technical terms; (F) for any loss or delay in the transmission
or otherwise of any document required in order to make a payment under any Letter of Credit or guarantee thereof or of the proceeds thereof; (G) for the credit of the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit or guarantee thereof; and (H)
for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Lender. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any of Lender’s rights or powers hereunder or under the Agreement. 
  
 (c) Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit or to expand any
waivers, covenants or indemnities made by Borrower in favour of any L/C Issuer in any letter of credit application, reimbursement agreement or similar document, instrument or agreement between Borrower and such L/C Issuer.

 CREDIT AGREEMENT 
  
 CASH MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS 
  
 Borrower shall establish and maintain the Cash Management Systems described below: 
  
 (1) On or before the Closing Date (or such later date as Agent shall consent to in writing), Borrower shall have established one or more
depository accounts in its name (“Borrower Accounts”) and Disbursement Accounts at the bank named on Disclosure Schedule 3.19 (a “Relationship Bank”) and that Relationship Bank, shall have entered into a
tri-party blocked accounts agreement with Agent and Borrower, in form and substance acceptable to Agent, which shall become operative on or prior to the Closing Date. Such blocked accounts agreement shall provide, among other things, that (i) all
items of payment deposited in Borrower Accounts are held by such bank as agent for Agent, (ii) the Relationship Bank executing such agreement has no rights of setoff or recoupment or any other claim against such account, as the case may be, other
than for payment of its service fees and other charges directly related to the administration of such accounts and the Disbursement Accounts monitored by such bank, for the amount of any required adjustments due to clerical error or calculation
errors directly relating to such accounts or the Disbursement Accounts, for returned cheques or other items of payment and in accordance with any court order, nature of garnishment binding on such bank or any other applicable law binding on such
bank, and (iii) from and after the Closing Date (A) such bank agrees to forward in accordance with such blocked accounts agreement all amounts in each Borrower Account to the applicable Collection Account through daily sweeps from such Borrower
Accounts into the Collection Accounts. Borrower shall not accumulate or maintain cash in disbursement accounts (including payroll accounts) as of any date of determination in excess of the aggregate of $50,000 (or the Equivalent Amount) and the
amount of cheques outstanding against such accounts as of that date and amounts necessary to meet minimum balance requirements. 
  
 (2) So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may amend Disclosure Schedule 3.18 to add or replace a Relationship Bank or
Borrower Account or to replace any Disbursement Account; provided, however, that (i) Agent shall have consented in writing in advance to the opening of such account with the relevant bank and (ii) prior to the time of the
opening of such account, Borrower and such bank shall have executed and delivered to Agent a tri-party blocked account agreement, in form and substance satisfactory to Agent. Borrower shall close any of its accounts (and establish replacement
accounts in accordance with the foregoing sentence) promptly and in any event within thirty (30) days of notice from Agent that the creditworthiness of any bank holding an account is no longer acceptable in Agent’s reasonable judgment, or as
promptly as practicable and in any event within sixty (60) days of notice from Agent that the operating performance, funds transfer and/or availability procedures or performance with respect to accounts of the bank holding such accounts or
Agent’s liability under any tri-party blocked account agreement with such bank is no longer acceptable in Agent’s reasonable judgment. 
  









 (3) The Borrower Accounts and Disbursement Accounts shall be cash collateral accounts, with all cash, cheques and other
similar items of payment in such accounts securing payment of the Loans and all other Obligations, and in which Borrower shall have granted a Lien to Agent pursuant to the Security Agreement.

accordance with Section 1.10 of the Agreement and shall be applied (and allocated) by Agent in accordance with Section 1.11 of the Agreement. In no event shall any amount be so applied unless and until such amount shall have been credited for value
to the Collection Account. Borrower hereby irrevocably instructs Agent to convert on each Business Day, at the then applicable Currency Exchange Rate, all US Dollars in the US Dollar Collection Account (other than the amount of any Obligation
denominated in US Dollars which is then due and payable and which would then be applied to such Obligation in accordance with Section 1.11 of the Agreement) to Canadian Dollars for application (and allocation) by Agent in accordance with Section
1.11 of the Agreement. Agent shall notify Borrower of the Currency Exchange Rate on or prior to the first Business Day of each calendar month that shall be applicable during such calendar month for the purpose of such currency conversions. If Agent
receives value before 2:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on any day for US Dollars received from Borrower and deposited in Agent’s US Dollar Collection Account that are to be converted by Agent into Canadian Dollars for application against Obligations
denominated in Canadian Dollars, Agent shall have received value before 2:00 p.m. on such day in “the applicable Collection Account” for the purpose of Section 1.10 of the Agreement. 
  
 (5) Borrower may maintain, in its name, an account (each a “Disbursement
Account” and, collectively, the “Disbursement Accounts”) at a bank acceptable to Agent into which Agent shall, from time to time, deposit proceeds of Revolving Credit Advances made to Borrower pursuant to Section 1.1 for
use by Borrower solely in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.4. 
  
 (6)
Borrower shall and shall cause its Affiliates, officers, employees, agents, directors or other Persons acting for or in concert with Borrower (each a “Related Person”) to (i) hold in trust for Agent all cheques, cash and other items
of payment received by Borrower or received by any such Related Person for or on behalf of Borrower, and (ii) within one (1) Business Day after receipt by Borrower or any such Related Person of any cheques, cash or other items of payment in which
Borrower has an interest, deposit the same into a Borrower Account. Borrower and each Related Person thereof acknowledge and agree that all cash, cheques or items of payment constituting proceeds of Collateral are the property of Agent. All proceeds
of the sale or other disposition of any Collateral shall be deposited directly into Borrower Accounts.

 to 
  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT

 - 2 - 








 ANNEX G (Section 6.9) 
  
 to 
  
 CREDIT AGREEMENT 
  
 FINANCIAL COVENANTS 
  
 Borrower shall not breach or fail to comply with any of the following financial covenants, each of which shall be calculated in accordance with GAAP
consistently applied: 
  
 (1) Maximum Capital Expenditures. Borrower
shall not make Capital Expenditures, (excluding, for greater certainty, Capital Expenditures relating to the purchase of Equipment and capital property from Affiliates, which are not to exceed $5,000,000 in the aggregate from the Closing Date to the
Commitment Termination Date, provided that Borrower shall have a Net Borrowing Availability of at least $1,000,000 immediately after giving effect to any of such purchases) during the following periods that exceed in the aggregate the amounts set
forth opposite each of such periods: 
  

				
	 Period

	  	 Maximum Capital
 Expenditures
 per Period


	 Closing Date to 12/31/04
	  	$	2,000,000
	 2005 Fiscal Year
	  	$	2,500,000
	 2006 Fiscal Year
	  	$	2,500,000
	 2007 Fiscal Year
	  	$	2,500,000

  
 ; provided, however,
that the amount of permitted Capital Expenditures referenced above will be increased in any period by the positive amount equal to the amount (if any), equal to the difference obtained by taking the Capital Expenditures limit specified above for the
immediately prior period minus the actual amount of any Capital Expenditures expended during such prior period (the “Carry Over Amount”), and for purposes of measuring compliance herewith, the Carry Over Amount shall be
deemed to be the first amount spent on Capital Expenditures in that succeeding year. 
  
 (2) Minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. Borrower shall have at the end of each Fiscal Quarter set forth below for the indicated period then ended, a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.0:1.0: 
  
 Three (3) consecutive Fiscal Months ending on the last day of December, 2004;

  
 Six (6) consecutive Fiscal Months ending on the last day of
March, 2005; 
  









 Nine (9) consecutive Fiscal Months ending on the last day of June, 2005; 
  
 Twelve (12) consecutive Fiscal Months ending on the last day of each Fiscal
Quarter in each Fiscal Year ending on and after September, 2005. 
  
 Minimum EBITDA. Borrower shall have at the end of each Fiscal Quarter set forth below for the indicated period then ended, a minimum EBITDA as set forth below: 
  

				
	 Period

	  	 Minimum
 EBITDA


	 Three (3) consecutive Fiscal Months ending on the last day of December, 2004;
	  	$	1,150,000
	 Six (6) consecutive Fiscal Months ending on the last day of March, 2005;
	  	$	2,500,000
	 Nine (9) consecutive Fiscal Months ending on the last day of June, 2005;
	  	$	5,150,000
	 Twelve (12) consecutive Fiscal Months ending on the last day of each Fiscal Quarter in each Fiscal Year ending on and after September,
2005.
	  	$	6,500,000

  
 Unless otherwise
specifically provided herein, any accounting term used in the Agreement shall have the meaning customarily given such term in accordance with GAAP, and all financial computations hereunder shall be computed in accordance with GAAP consistently
applied. That certain items or computations are explicitly modified by the phrase “in accordance with GAAP” shall in no way be construed to limit the foregoing. If any “Accounting Changes” (as defined below) occur and such
changes result in a change in the calculation of the financial covenants, standards or terms used in the Agreement or any other Loan Document, then Borrower and Agent agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such provisions of the
Agreement so as to equitably reflect such Accounting Changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating Borrower’s financial condition shall be the same after such Accounting Changes as if such Accounting Changes had not been
made. “Accounting Changes” means (a) changes in accounting principles required by the promulgation of any rule, regulation, pronouncement or opinion by the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (or successor thereto or any
agency with similar functions); and (b) changes in accounting principles concurred in by Borrower’s independent chartered public accountants. All such adjustments resulting from expenditures made subsequent to the Closing Date (including
capitalization of costs and expenses or payment of pre-Closing Date liabilities) shall be treated as expenses in the period the expenditures are made and deducted as part of the calculation of EBITDA in such period. If Borrower and Agent agree upon
the required amendments, then after appropriate amendments have been executed and the underlying Accounting Change with respect thereto has been implemented, any reference to GAAP contained in the Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall, only
to the extent of such Accounting Change, refer to GAAP, consistently applied after giving effect to the implementation of such Accounting Change. If Borrower and Agent cannot agree upon the required amendments within thirty (30) days following the
date of implementation of any Accounting Change, then all Financial Statements delivered and all calculations of financial covenants and other standards and terms in accordance with the Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be prepared,
delivered and made without regard to the underlying Accounting Change.
