 “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import herein or any other Loan Document shall be deemed to include
electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity
or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the
extent and as provided for in any applicable Requirement of Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National
Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic
Transactions Act.


 






    5


     


    

 


(b)          
Any provision of this Amendment held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability
of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate
such provision in any other jurisdiction.


 


(c)          
This Amendment is a “Loan Document” as defined in and under the Credit Agreement and the provisions of Section 14.03
of the Credit Agreement, including as amended hereby shall apply with like force to this Amendment and the transactions contemplated
hereby, including as may arise after the date hereof.


 


(d)          
This Amendment and the transactions contemplated hereby, and all disputes between the parties under or relating to this Amendment
or the facts or circumstances leading to its execution, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be construed in accordance
with and governed by the laws (including statutes of limitation) of the State of New York, without regard to conflicts of law
principles that would require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
submits, for itself and its property, to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting
in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from
any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Amendment.


 


(e)          
EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS OF LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT.

in accordance with their respective US Revolving Commitments and (ii) each Canadian Revolving Loan shall be made as part
of a Canadian Revolving Borrowing consisting of Canadian Revolving Loans made by the Canadian Lender; provided that, in
the case of the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii), the failure of any Lender to make a Revolving

shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Revolving Loan required to be made by such other Lender).


 


(b)         Subject
to Section 2.11, Section 2.12, and Section 2.13,  each US Revolving
Borrowing shall be denominated in US Dollars and comprised entirely of US ABR Loans or US Eurodollar Loans as US Borrower may

(c)         Each
US Lender may at its option make any US Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such US Lender
to make such US Eurodollar Loan; provided that any exercise of such option  shall not affect the obligation of US
Borrower to repay such US Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or  create any enhanced rights in the Administrative
Agent or any Lender under this Agreement, including under Section 2.13, 2.14, 2.18
and 14.03, that are additional to or more favorable than the rights thereof had such option not been exercised.
Revolving Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that US Borrower shall not be
entitled to request any US Revolving Borrowing that, if made, would result in more than fifteen (15) US Eurodollar Borrowings
outstanding hereunder at any one time; provided further, that the allocation of US Revolving Loans made in respect of a
single US Eurodollar Borrowing among both US Secured Loans and US Unsecured Loans shall count as a single US Eurodollar Borrowing
and not as two US Eurodollar Borrowings. For purposes of the foregoing, US Revolving Borrowings having different Interest Periods,
regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate US Borrowings.


 


(d)         Each
Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available

US Lenders to an account as directed by US Borrower in the applicable US Borrowing Request delivered to or maintained with the
Administrative Agent or, if a US Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent specified in Article VII
shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective US Lenders.


 


(e)         Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a US Lender prior to the date (in the case of any US Eurodollar Borrowing),
and at least 2 hours prior to the time (in the case of any US ABR Borrowing), of any US Borrowing that such US Lender will not
make available to the Administrative Agent such US Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent
may assume that such US Lender has made its ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent at the time of such US Borrowing
in accordance with paragraph (d) above, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption,
make available to US Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available,
then, to the extent that such US Lender shall not have made its ratable portion of such US Borrowing available to the Administrative
Agent, each of such US Lender and US Borrower severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding
amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to US Borrower until the date
such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at  in the case of US Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time
to the US Loans comprising such US Borrowing and  in the case of such US Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective
Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. If
such US Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such US Lender’s
US Loan as part of such US Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement, and US Borrower’s obligation to repay the Administrative
Agent such corresponding amount pursuant to this Section 2.02(e) shall cease. If US Borrower and such US Lender
shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
remit to US Borrower the amount of such interest paid by US Borrower for such period. Any payment by US Borrower shall be without
prejudice to any claim US Borrower may have against a US Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative
Agent.


 






    61


     


    

 


(f)         Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, no Borrower shall be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing
if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.


 


(g)         At
the time that any US Revolving Loan is made, such US Revolving Loan shall be designated as a US Secured Loan to the extent of
the Available Secured Amount (if any) at such time and the remainder of such US Revolving Loan shall be designated as a US Unsecured
Loan, which designations shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent in the Register. Once all or a portion of any US Revolving
Loan is designated as a US Secured Loan it may not later be reclassified as a US Unsecured Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, US
Revolving Lenders shall hold US Secured Loans and US Unsecured Loans ratably in accordance with their respective US Revolving
Commitments. As of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, the US Borrower hereby assumes, and each US Guarantor hereby guarantees,
secured Indebtedness hereunder (and under the Loan Documents) in an aggregate principal amount equal to $528,568,745.


 


(h)         At
the time that any Canadian Revolving Loan is made, such Canadian Revolving Loan shall be designated as a Canadian Secured Loan
to the extent of the Available Secured Amount (if any) at such time and the remainder of such Canadian Revolving Loan shall be
designated as a Canadian Unsecured Loan. Once all or a portion of any Canadian Revolving Loan is designated as a Canadian Secured
Loan it may not later be reclassified as an Canadian Unsecured Loan. As of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, the Canadian Borrower
hereby assumes, and each Canadian Guarantor hereby guarantees, secured Indebtedness hereunder (and under the Loan Documents) in
an aggregate principal amount equal to $17,231,255.

(h)         Interest

on Canadian Prime Rate Loans. Interest on Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall be calculated on the principal amount of the Canadian
Prime Rate Loan outstanding during such period and on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 365 days. Changes
in such interest rate shall cause an immediate adjustment of the interest rate applicable to such Canadian Loans without the necessity
of any notice to Canadian Borrower.


 


(ii)         Interest
on Canadian US$-Denominated Base Rate Loans. Interest on Canadian US$-Denominated Base Rate Loans shall be calculated on the
principal amount of the Canadian US$-Denominated U.S. Base Rate Loan outstanding during such period and on the basis of the actual
number of days elapsed in a year of 365 days. Changes in such interest rate shall cause an immediate adjustment of the interest
rate applicable to such Canadian Loans without the necessity of any notice to Canadian Borrower.


 


(iii)         Interest

(Canada) by multiplying such rate of interest or other rate by the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation and
dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year. Whenever a rate of interest or other rate per annum hereunder is expressed
or calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days, such rate of interest or other rate shall be expressed as a rate per annum,
calculated on the basis of a 365 day year, by multiplying such rate of interest or other rate by 365 and dividing it by 360.

not the effective rate method of calculation.


 


(vi)         Waiver.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the covenant of Canadian Borrower to pay interest at the rates provided herein shall
not merge in any judgment relating to any obligation of Canadian Borrower to the Canadian Lender and any provision of the Interest
Act (Canada) or Judgment Interest Act (Alberta) which restricts any rate of interest set forth herein shall be inapplicable to
this Agreement and is hereby waived by Canadian Borrower.


 


(j)         Currency
for Payment of Interest. All interest paid or payable on Loans hereunder shall be paid in the currency in which such Loan
is denominated.

    69


     


    

 


(iii)         each
draft drawn by Canadian Borrower and presented for acceptance by the Canadian Lender shall be drawn on the standard form of the
Canadian Lender in effect at the time;

been manually executed and delivered by such officers on behalf of Canadian Borrower; notwithstanding that any person whose manual
or facsimile signature appears on any Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance may no longer be an authorized signatory for Canadian
Borrower on the date of issuance of a Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance, such signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient
for all purposes as if such authority had remained in force at the time of such issuance and any such Canadian Bankers’
Acceptance shall be binding on Canadian Borrower; and


 


(v)         in
lieu of signing Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances in accordance with Section 2.07(c)(iv) above, Canadian
Borrower may provide a Power of Attorney to the Canadian Lender; for so long as a Power of Attorney is in force with respect to

Acceptances executed in accordance with a Power of Attorney, unless the context otherwise requires.

Canadian Lender in question, the attorney of Canadian Borrower:


 


(A)         to
sign for and on behalf and in the name of Canadian Borrower as drawer, drafts in the Canadian Lender’s standard form (or,
if applicable, generic forms required by the Canadian Lender pursuant to Section 2.07(c)(iii)) which are depository
bills as defined in the Depository Bills and Notes Act (Canada) (the “DBNA”), payable to a “clearing
house” (as defined in the DBNA) including The Canadian Depository For Securities Limited or its nominee, CDS & Co. (the
 “clearing house”);


 


(B)         for
drafts which are not depository bills, to sign for and on behalf and in the name of Canadian Borrower as drawer and to endorse
on its behalf, Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances drawn on the Canadian Lender payable to the order of Canadian Borrower or payable
to the order of the Canadian Lender;


 






    70


     


    

 


(C)         to fill in the amount, date and maturity date of such Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances; and


 


(D)         to
deposit and/or deliver such Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances which have been accepted by the Canadian Lender,


 


provided that such acts in each
case are to be undertaken by the Canadian Lender strictly in accordance with instructions given to the Canadian Lender by Canadian
Borrower as provided in this Section. For certainty, signatures of any authorized signatory of the Canadian Lender may be mechanically
reproduced in facsimile on Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances in accordance herewith and such facsimile signatures shall be binding
and effective as if they had been manually executed by such authorized signatory of the Canadian Lender.


 


Instructions from Canadian
Borrower to the Canadian Lender relating to the execution, completion, endorsement, deposit or delivery by the Canadian Lender
on behalf of Canadian Borrower of Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances which Canadian Borrower wishes to submit to the Canadian
Lender for acceptance by the Canadian Lender shall be communicated by Canadian Borrower in writing to the Canadian Lender by delivery
to the Canadian Lender of Canadian Borrowing Requests in accordance with this Agreement.


 


The communication in
writing to the Canadian Lender of the instructions set out in the Canadian Borrowing Requests referred to above shall constitute
(1) the authorization and instruction of Canadian Borrower to the Canadian Lender to sign for and on behalf and in the name
of Canadian Borrower as drawer the requested Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances and to complete or endorse Canadian Bankers’
Acceptances in accordance with such information as set out above and (2) the request of Canadian Borrower to the Canadian
Lender to accept such Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances and deposit the same with the clearing house or deliver the same, as
the case may be, in each case in accordance with this Agreement and such instructions. Canadian Borrower acknowledges that the
Canadian Lender shall not be obligated to accept any such Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances except in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement.


 


The Canadian Lender
shall be and it is hereby authorized to act on behalf of Canadian Borrower upon and in compliance with instructions communicated
to the Canadian Lender as provided herein if the Canadian Lender reasonably believes such instructions to be genuine. The Canadian
Lender’s actions in compliance with such instructions shall be conclusively deemed to have been in accordance with the instructions
of Canadian Borrower.


 


This power of attorney
may be revoked by Canadian Borrower at any time upon not less than 5 Banking Days’ prior written notice served upon the Canadian
Lender, provided that no such revocation shall reduce, limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Canadian Borrower in respect
of any Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance executed, completed, endorsed, deposited or delivered in accordance herewith prior to
the time at which such revocation becomes effective.


 






    71


     


    

 


(ii)         Unless
Canadian Borrower has provided the Canadian Power of Attorney to the Canadian Lender, to facilitate Canadian Borrowings of Canadian
Bankers’ Acceptances, Canadian Borrower shall from time to time as required by the Canadian Lender, provide to the Canadian
Lender drafts drawn in blank by Canadian Borrower in quantities sufficient for the Canadian Lender to fulfill its obligations
hereunder. Any such pre-signed drafts which are delivered by Canadian Borrower to the Canadian Lender shall be held in safekeeping
by the Canadian Lender with the same degree of care as if they were the Canadian Lender’s property, and shall only be dealt
with by the Canadian Lender in accordance herewith. The Canadian Lender shall not be responsible or liable for its failure to
make any Canadian Borrowing of Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances required hereunder if the cause of such failure is, in whole
or in part, due to the failure of Canadian Borrower to provide such pre-signed drafts to the Canadian Lender on a timely basis.


 


(iii)         By
10:00 a.m., Calgary time, on the applicable date of Borrowing, Canadian Borrower shall (A) either deliver to the Canadian
Lender in Toronto, or, if previously delivered, be deemed to have authorized the Canadian Lender to complete and accept, or (B) where
Canadian Borrower has previously executed and delivered a Canadian Power of Attorney to the Canadian Lender, be deemed to have
authorized the Canadian Lender to sign on behalf of Canadian Borrower, complete and accept, drafts drawn by Canadian Borrower
on the Canadian Lender in a principal amount at maturity equal to the Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances specified by Canadian
Borrower in the relevant Canadian Borrowing Request.


 


(e)         Completion

Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances, Canadian Borrower shall provide the Canadian Lender with a written notice detailing the purchasers
of Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances on such date, the amount (and, if applicable, the denominations) of Canadian Bankers’
Acceptances to be issued to each such purchaser and the Discount Proceeds to be received from each purchaser for such Canadian
Bankers’ Acceptances. The Canadian Lender shall complete and accept the Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances in accordance
with such written notice and shall transfer to the specified purchasers the Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances. In the case of
a Borrowing, on receipt of the Discount Proceeds the Canadian Lender shall remit such funds (net of the acceptance fees to which
the Canadian Lender is entitled pursuant to Section 2.07(b)) to Canadian Borrower. The Canadian Lender shall
not complete, issue or deliver any Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance except in accordance with the written instructions of Canadian
Borrower given in the relevant Canadian Borrowing Request, and the written notice referred to above. Canadian Borrower may elect
to cause the Canadian Lender to purchase Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance at a discount rate equal to the lesser of  the
discount rate then applicable to bankers’ acceptances generally accepted by the Canadian Lender in the bankers’ acceptance
market and  the CDOR Rate plus 0.10% per annum. The Canadian Lender shall remit the Discount Proceeds of Canadian Bankers’
Acceptances it purchases (net of the acceptance fees to which the Canadian Lender is entitled pursuant to Section 2.07(b))
to Canadian Borrower.


 


(f)         Rollover,
Conversion or Payment on Maturity. In anticipation of the maturity of Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances, Canadian Borrower
shall, subject to and in accordance with the requirements hereof, do one or a combination of the following with respect to the
aggregate face amount at maturity of all such Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances:


 






    72


     


    

 


(i)         (A) deliver to the Canadian Lender a Canadian Borrowing Request that Canadian Borrower intends to draw and present
for acceptance on the maturity date new Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances in an aggregate face amount up to the aggregate amount
of the maturing Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances and (B) on the maturity date pay to the Canadian Lender an additional
amount equal to the difference between the aggregate face amount of the maturing Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances and the Discount
Proceeds of such new Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances;


 


(ii)         (A) deliver
to the Canadian Lender an Interest Election Request requesting a conversion of the maturing Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances
to another type of Canadian Loan and (B) on the maturity date pay to the Canadian Lender an amount equal to the difference,
if any, between the aggregate face amount of the maturing Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances and the amount of the Canadian Loans
into which conversion is requested; or


 


(iii)         on
the maturity date of the maturing Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances, pay to the Canadian Lender an amount equal to the aggregate
face amount of such Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances.


 


If Canadian Borrower
fails to so notify the Canadian Lender or make such payments on maturity, the Canadian Lender shall effect a conversion into a
Canadian Prime Rate Loan of the entire amount of such maturing Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances as if a Canadian Borrowing Request
had been given by Canadian Borrower to the Canadian Lender to that effect.


 


(g)         Restriction
on Rollovers and Conversions. Subject to the other provisions hereof, conversions and rollovers of Canadian Bankers’
Acceptances may only occur on the maturity date thereof.

Discount Proceeds of new Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances issued on a rollover, and Canadian Borrower shall on the maturity
date of the Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances being rolled over pay to the Canadian Lender an amount equal to the difference
between the face amount of the maturing Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances and the Discount Proceeds from the new Canadian Bankers’
Acceptances together with the acceptance fees to which the Canadian Lender is entitled pursuant to Section 2.07(b).


 


(i)         Conversion
into Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances. In respect of conversions into Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances, in order to
satisfy the continuing liability of Canadian Borrower to the Canadian Lender for the amount of the converted Loan, the Canadian
Lender shall receive and retain for its own account the Discount Proceeds of the Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances issued upon
such Conversion, and Canadian Borrower shall on the Conversion Date pay to the Canadian Lender an amount equal to the difference
between the principal amount of the converted Loan and the aggregate Discount Proceeds from the Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances
issued on such Conversion, together with the acceptance fees to which the Canadian Lender is entitled pursuant to Section 2.07(b).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, no Canadian Secured Loan may be converted into a Canadian Bankers’
Acceptance.


 


(j)         Conversion
from Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances. In order to satisfy the continuing liability of Canadian Borrower to the Canadian
Lender for an amount equal to the aggregate face amount of the maturing Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances converted to another
type of Canadian Loan, the Canadian Lender shall record the obligation of Canadian Borrower to the Canadian Lender as a Canadian
Loan of the type into which such continuing liability has been converted. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein,
no Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance may be converted into a Canadian Secured Loan.


 






    73


     


    

 


(k)         Canadian
Borrower Acknowledgements. Canadian Borrower hereby agrees that it shall make its own arrangements for the marketing and sale

Election Notice. To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.09, the applicable Borrower shall deliver,
by hand delivery or telecopier, a duly completed and executed Interest Election Request to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian
Lender, as applicable, not later than the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03
if such Borrower were requesting Loans of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election.
Each Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable. Each Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in
compliance with Section 2.02:


 


(i)         the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to
different portions thereof, or if outstanding Borrowings are being combined, the allocation to each resulting Borrowing (in which
case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) below
shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);


 


(ii)         the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day (with
respect to US Borrowings) and a Banking Day (with respect to Canadian Borrowings);


 


(iii)         whether
the resulting Borrowing is to be (A) with respect to US Borrowings, a US ABR Borrowing or a US Eurodollar Borrowing and (B) with
respect to Canadian Borrowings, (x) a Canadian US$-Denominated Base Rate Borrowing or a Canadian US$ Libor Borrowing, denominated
in US Dollars, or (y) Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing or Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances, denominated in Canadian Dollars;


 


(iv)            
if the resulting Borrowing is a US Eurodollar Borrowing or Canadian US$ Libor Loan, as applicable, the Interest Period to
be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term
 “Interest Period”.


 


If any such Interest
Election Request requests a US Eurodollar Borrowing or Canadian US$ Libor Loan but does not specify an Interest Period, then applicable
Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.


 


Promptly following
receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each US Lender of the details thereof and of such
US Lender’s pro rata portion of each resulting Borrowing.


 


(c)         Automatic
Conversion. If an Interest Election Request with respect to a US Eurodollar Borrowing or Canadian US$ Libor Loan is not timely
delivered prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein,
at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be continued as a US Eurodollar Borrowing or Canadian US$ Libor Loan,
respectively, in each case, with an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof,
if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (i) with respect to US Borrowings, the Administrative Agent or the
US Required Lenders may require, by notice to US Borrower, that (A) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued
as a US Eurodollar Borrowing and (B) unless repaid, each US Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to a US ABR Borrowing
at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (ii) with respect to Canadian Borrowings, the Canadian Lender may
require, by notice to Canadian Borrower, that (A) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Canadian
US$ Libor Borrowing and (B) unless repaid, each Canadian US$ Libor Borrowing shall be converted to a US$-Denominated Base
Rate Loan at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

Section 2.10      
Optional and Mandatory Prepayments of Loans.


 


(a)       
Optional Prepayments. US Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any applicable
Borrowing, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty subject to the requirements of this Section 2.10
and Section 2.16; provided that each partial prepayment shall be in a minimum amount equal to the lesser
of  the minimum amount required pursuant to Section 2.02(b) for Borrowings of the Type of Loan to be repaid
and  such lesser amount as needed to prepay the entire outstanding principal amount of such Borrowing. The Canadian Borrower
shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any applicable Borrowing, in whole or in part, without premium
or penalty subject to this Section 2.10 and Section 2.16; provided that (i) that each partial
prepayment shall be in a minimum amount equal to the lesser of  the minimum amount required pursuant to Section 2.02(b)
for Borrowings of the Type of Loan to be repaid and such lesser amount as needed to prepay the entire outstanding principal amount
of such Borrowing and (ii) no such prepayment may be applied to the Canadian Secured Loans unless such prepayment is (A) consented
to by the Canadian Lender, (B) made at maturity of this Agreement or (C) made in connection with a termination of the Canadian
Commitments and payment in full of all Canadian Obligations payable under any Loan Document.


 


(b)        
Revolving Loan Prepayments.


 


(i)           In
the event of (A) the termination of all the US Revolving Commitments, US Borrower shall, on the date of such termination,
repay or prepay all outstanding US Revolving Borrowings and all outstanding Swingline Loans (and if any US Revolving Exposure
shall remain as a result of US L/C Exposures, the US Borrower shall fully Cash Collateralize 105% of such US L/C Exposures) and
(B) the termination of all the Canadian Revolving Commitments, Canadian Borrower shall, on the date of such termination,
repay or prepay all outstanding Canadian Revolving Borrowings (and if any Canadian Revolving Exposure shall remain as a result
of Canadian L/C Exposure, the Canadian Borrower shall fully Cash Collateralize 105% of such Canadian L/C Exposure).


 


(ii)          In
the event of (A) any partial reduction of the US Revolving Commitments, then (1) at or prior to the effective date of
such reduction, the Administrative Agent shall notify US Borrower and the US Revolving Lenders of the sum of the US Revolving
Exposures after giving effect thereto and (2) if the sum of the US Revolving Exposures would exceed the aggregate amount
of US Revolving Commitments after giving effect to such reduction, then US Borrower shall, on the date of such reduction, first,
repay or prepay Swingline Loans and second, repay or prepay US Revolving Borrowings, in an aggregate amount sufficient
to eliminate such excess (and if any such excess shall remain as a result of US L/C Exposures, the US Borrower shall fully Cash
Collateralize such US L/C Exposures) and (B) any partial reduction of the Canadian Revolving Commitments, then (1) at
or prior to the effective date of such reduction, the Canadian Lender, in consultation with the Canadian Issuing Bank, shall notify
Canadian Borrower of the sum of the Canadian Revolving Exposures after giving effect thereto and (2) if the sum of the Canadian
Revolving Exposures would exceed the aggregate amount of Canadian Revolving Commitments after giving effect to such reduction,
then Canadian Borrower shall, on the date of such reduction, repay or prepay Canadian Revolving Borrowings in an aggregate amount
sufficient to eliminate such excess (and if any such excess shall remain as a result of Canadian L/C Exposure, the Canadian Borrower
shall fully Cash Collateralize such Canadian L/C Exposure).


 






    77


     


    

 


(iii)         In the event that the sum of all US Lenders’ US Revolving Exposures exceeds the US Revolving Commitments then in effect,
US Borrower shall, without notice or demand, immediately first, repay or prepay Swingline Loans and second, repay
or prepay US Revolving Borrowings (in whole or in part), in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess (and if any
such excess shall remain as a result of US L/C Exposures, the US Borrower shall fully Cash Collateralize such US L/C Exposures).


 


(iv)         In
the event that the Canadian Lender’s Canadian Revolving Exposure exceeds the Canadian Revolving Commitments then in effect
(such excess, the “Canadian Currency Excess”), then, upon written request by the Canadian Lender (which
request shall detail the applicable Canadian Currency Excess), Canadian Borrower shall repay an amount of Canadian Prime Rate
Loans or Canadian US$-Denominated Base Rate Loans made to Canadian Borrower hereunder within  if the Canadian Currency Excess
exceeds Cdn$1,000,000, five Banking Days, and  in all other cases, twenty Banking Days after receipt of such request, such
that, except as otherwise contemplated in the immediately succeeding clause (B), the Equivalent Amount in Canadian
Dollars of such repayments is, in the aggregate, at least equal to the Canadian Currency Excess (and if any such excess shall
remain as a result of Canadian L/C Exposure, the Canadian Borrower shall fully Cash Collateralize such Canadian L/C Exposure).


 


(A)          If, in respect of any Canadian Currency Excess as at the applicable date, the repayments made by Canadian Borrower have
not completely removed such Canadian Currency Excess (the remainder thereof being herein called the “Canadian Currency
Excess Deficiency”), Canadian Borrower shall within the aforementioned five or twenty Banking Days, as the case may
be, after receipt of the aforementioned request of the Canadian Lender, place an amount equal to the Canadian Currency Excess Deficiency
on deposit with the Canadian Lender in an interest bearing account in Canadian Borrower’s name with interest at rates prevailing
at the time of deposit for the account of Canadian Borrower, to be assigned to the Canadian Lender by instrument reasonably satisfactory
to the Canadian Lender and to be applied to maturing Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances or Canadian US$ Libor Loans made to Canadian
Borrower hereunder (converted if necessary at the exchange rate for determining the Equivalent Amount on the date of such application).
The Canadian Lender is hereby irrevocably directed by Canadian Borrower to apply any such sums on deposit to maturing Canadian
Loans as provided in the preceding sentence. In lieu of providing funds for the Canadian Currency Excess Deficiency, as provided
in the preceding provisions of this Section, Canadian Borrower may within the said period of five or twenty Banking Days, as the
case may be, provide to the Canadian Lender an irrevocable standby letter of credit in an amount equal to the Canadian Currency
Excess Deficiency and for a term which expires not sooner than ten Banking Days after the date of maturity of the relevant Bankers’
Acceptances or Canadian US$ Libor Loans, as the case may be; such letter of credit shall be issued by a financial institution,
and shall be on terms and conditions, acceptable to the Canadian Lender in its sole discretion. The Canadian Lender is hereby authorized
and directed to draw upon such letter of credit and apply the proceeds of the same to Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances or Canadian
US$ Libor Loans as they mature. Upon the Canadian Currency Excess being eliminated as aforesaid or by virtue of subsequent changes
in the exchange rate for determining the Equivalent Amount, then, provided no Canadian Default or Canadian Event of Default is
then continuing, such funds on deposit, together with interest thereon, or such letters of credit shall be returned to Canadian
Borrower, in the case of funds on deposit, or shall be cancelled or reduced in amount, in the case of letters of credit.


 






    78


     


    

 


(v)          In
the event that the aggregate Swingline Exposure exceeds the Swingline Commitment then in effect, US Borrower shall, without notice
or demand, immediately repay or prepay Swingline Loans in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.


 


(vi)         In the event that the Unsecured Utilization exceeds the Unsecured Commitment Cap then in effect, the US Borrower and/or
Canadian Borrower shall, without notice or demand, immediately first, repay or prepay Swingline Loans, second, repay or prepay
US Unsecured Loans and Canadian Unsecured Loans on a pro rata basis and third, Cash Collateralize US Letters of Credit and Canadian
Letters of Credit on a pro rata basis in accordance with this Agreement, in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.


 


(c)         Available
Cash Prepayment. So long as the Cash Hoarding Fallaway Date has not occurred, if and to the extent the applicable Borrower
has not applied the proceeds of such Borrowing for the purposes specified in the applicable Borrowing Request or for other purposes
permitted herein by the third (3rd) Business Day following the date on which such Borrowing is made, then on the next Business
Day the Borrowers shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to the lesser of (i) such unused proceeds
and (ii) the amount necessary to cause the aggregate Available Cash of Holdings and its Subsidiaries to be less than or equal
to the Available Cash Threshold Amount at the end of such Business Day.


 


(d)        Application
of Prepayments. Prior to any optional or mandatory prepayment hereunder, the applicable Borrower shall select the applicable
Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid in whole or in part and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant
to Section 2.10(e), subject to the provisions of this Section 2.10(d); provided that,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, and without modification of the pro rata sharing of payments
provisions set forth in Section 2.17, the amount of principal paid in connection with any optional or mandatory
prepayment shall be applied to first prepay the outstanding principal balance of applicable Unsecured Loans (if any) and second,
the remainder (if any) to prepay the outstanding principal balance of Secured Loans (if any); provided further that, with
respect to any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(c), the amount of principal paid in connection with such prepayment
shall be applied first to prepay the outstanding principal balance of US Unsecured Loans (if any) and Canadian Unsecured Loans
on a pro rata basis and second, the remainder (if any), to prepay the outstanding principal balance of US Secured Loans and Canadian
Secured Loans on a pro rata basis.


 






    79


     


    

 


(e)         Notice
of Prepayment.


 


(i)          
US Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender)
by written notice of any prepayment hereunder (A) in the case of prepayment of a US Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00
a.m., New York time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (B) in the case of prepayment of a US ABR Borrowing,
not later than 11:00 a.m., New York time, on the same Business Day as the date of prepayment and (C) in the case of prepayment
of a Swingline Loan, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York time, on the date of prepayment. In the case of a prepayment of a US Revolving
Loan, such notice of prepayment shall include a statement of the outstanding principal balance of US Unsecured Loans and US Secured
Loans as of the date of prepayment and the allocation of such prepayment as to such balances in accordance with Section 2.10(d).


 


(ii)          Canadian Borrower shall notify the Canadian Lender by written notice of any prepayment hereunder  in the case of prepayment
of a Canadian US$ Libor Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Calgary time, three Banking Days before the date of prepayment,  in
the case of prepayment of Canadian Prime Rate Loans or a Canadian US$-Denominated Base Rate Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m.,
Calgary time, one Banking Day before the date of prepayment and  in the case of prepayment of a Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance,
not later than 8:00 a.m., Calgary time, on the date of prepayment; provided, however, that a Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance
may only be repaid on its maturity date unless cash collateralized in accordance with Section 2.10(f). In the
case of a prepayment of a Canadian Revolving Loan such notice of prepayment shall include a statement of the outstanding principal
balance of Canadian Unsecured Loans and Canadian Secured Loans as of the date of prepayment and the allocation of such prepayment
as to such balances in accordance with Section 2.10(d).


 


(iii)         Each
such notice shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of prepayment delivered by any Borrower may state that such notice
is conditioned upon the effectiveness of another credit facility or the closing of a securities offering, in which case such notice
may be revoked by such Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Lender, as applicable, on or prior to the
specified prepayment date) if such condition is not satisfied. Each such notice shall specify the prepayment date, the principal
amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation
of the amount of such prepayment. Promptly following receipt of any such notice with respect to US Borrowings (other than a notice
relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the US Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial
prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided
in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment
of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing and otherwise in accordance with this Section 2.10.
Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest to the extent required by Section 2.06 and
any breakage payments to the extent required by Section 2.16.


 






    80


     


    

 


(f)          With
respect to any repayment of unmatured Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances pursuant to Section 2.10(e)(ii) or
otherwise hereunder, it is agreed that Canadian Borrower shall provide for the funding in full of the unmatured Canadian Bankers’
Acceptances to be repaid by paying to and depositing with the applicable Canadian Lender cash collateral for each such unmatured
Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances equal to the face amount payable at maturity thereof. The Canadian Lender shall hold such
cash collateral in an interest bearing cash collateral account at rates prevailing at the time of deposit for similar accounts
with the Canadian Lender; such cash collateral, such cash collateral account, any accounts receivable, claims, instruments or
securities evidencing or relating to the foregoing, and any proceeds of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Outstanding
BAs Collateral”) shall be assigned to the Canadian Lender as security for the Canadian Obligations of Canadian Borrower
in relation to such Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances and the Lien of the Canadian Lender created in such Outstanding BAs Collateral
shall rank in priority to all other Liens and adverse claims against such Outstanding BAs Collateral. Such Outstanding BAs Collateral
shall be applied to satisfy the obligations of Canadian Borrower for such Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances as they mature and
the Canadian Lender is hereby irrevocably directed by Canadian Borrower to apply any such Outstanding BAs Collateral to such maturing
Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances. The Outstanding BAs Collateral created herein shall not be released to Canadian Borrower
without the consent of the Canadian Lender; however, interest on such deposited amounts shall be for the account of Canadian Borrower
and may be withdrawn by Canadian Borrower so long as no Canadian Event of Default is then continuing. If, after maturity of the
Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances for which such Outstanding BAs Collateral is held and application by the Canadian Lender of
the Outstanding BAs Collateral to satisfy the Canadian Obligations of Canadian Borrower hereunder with respect to the Canadian
Bankers’ Acceptances being repaid, any interest or other proceeds of the Outstanding BAs Collateral remains, such interest
or other proceeds shall be promptly paid and transferred by the Canadian Lender to Canadian Borrower so long as no Canadian Event
of Default is then continuing.


 


Section 2.11      
Alternate Rate of Interest.


 


(a)        
If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a US Eurodollar Borrowing:


 


(i)           the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be final and conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate
and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the US Adjusted LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period; or


 


(ii)          the
Administrative Agent determines or is advised in writing by the US Required Lenders that the US Adjusted LIBOR Rate for such Interest
Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such US Lenders of making or maintaining their US Loans included in
such US Eurodollar Borrowing for such Interest Period;


 


then the Administrative Agent shall give
written notice thereof to US Borrower and the US Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent
notifies US Borrower and the US Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist,  any US Eurodollar
Borrowing requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as a US Market Disruption Loan,  any
US Borrowing that was to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to a US Eurodollar Borrowing shall be continued
as a US Market Disruption Loan and  any outstanding US Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current
Interest Period if occurring during the period the circumstances in clause (A) or (B) above
remain in effect, to a US Market Disruption Loan.


 






    81


     


    

 


(b)         In the event that at any time subsequent to the delivery of a Canadian Borrowing Request with regard to any requested Canadian
US$ Libor Loan, but before the date of such Canadian Borrowing, the Canadian Lender (acting reasonably) makes a determination,
which shall be conclusive and binding upon Canadian Borrower, absent manifest error, that:  by reason of circumstances affecting
the London interbank market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the rate of interest with respect to, or deposits
are not available in sufficient amounts in the ordinary course of business at the rate determined hereunder to fund, a requested
Canadian US$ Libor Loan during the ensuing Interest Period selected;  the making or continuing of the requested Canadian US$
Libor Loan by the Canadian Lender has been made impracticable by the occurrence of an event which materially adversely affects
the London interbank market generally; or  the Canadian US$ Libor Rate shall no longer represent the effective cost to the
Canadian Lender of United States Dollar deposits in such market for the relevant Interest Period, then the Canadian Lender shall
give notice thereof to Canadian Borrower as soon as possible after such determination and Canadian Borrower shall, within one Banking
Day after receipt of such notice and in replacement of such Canadian Borrowing Request previously given by Canadian Borrower, give
the Canadian Lender a Canadian Borrowing Request which specifies another Canadian Borrowing in any other form of Canadian Loan
which would not be affected by the notice from the Canadian Lender pursuant to this Section 2.11. In the event
Canadian Borrower fails to give, if applicable, a valid replacement Canadian Borrowing Request,  with respect to any such
Canadian Borrowing originally requested by Canadian Borrower by way of a Canadian US$ Libor Loan, Canadian Borrower shall be deemed
to have instead requested a Canadian Borrowing by way of a Canadian US$-Denominated Base Rate Loan in the amount originally specified
and  with respect to any such maturing Canadian US$ Libor Loan, such Loan shall be converted on the last day of the applicable
Interest Period into Canadian US$-Denominated Base Rate Loans, in each case, as if a Canadian Borrowing Request had been given
to the Canadian Lender by Canadian Borrower pursuant to the provisions hereof.


 


(c)         If
at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that  the
circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) or (b)(i) above have arisen and such circumstances
are unlikely to be temporary or  the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) or (b)(i)
above have not arisen but either  the supervisor for the administrator of the US LIBOR Rate has made a public statement that
the administrator of the US LIBOR Rate is insolvent (and there is no successor administrator that will continue publication of
the US LIBOR Rate),  the administrator of the US LIBOR Rate has made a public statement identifying a specific date after
which the US LIBOR Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published by it (and there is no successor administrator
that will continue publication of the US LIBOR Rate),  the supervisor for the administrator of the US LIBOR Rate has made
a public statement identifying a specific date after which the US LIBOR Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published
or  the supervisor for the administrator of the US LIBOR Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative
Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the US LIBOR Rate may no longer be used for determining
interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest
to the US LIBOR Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest
for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate
rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable (but for the avoidance of doubt, such related
changes shall not include a reduction of the Applicable Margin); provided that, if such alternate rate of interest as so
determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in Section 14.02, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent
of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business
Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the US Lenders and the Canadian Lender, a written notice
from the US Required Lenders or the Canadian Lender stating that such US Required Lenders or the Canadian Lender objects to such
amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (c) (but,
in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 2.11(c),
only to the extent the US LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis),
  any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any US Revolving Borrowing or Canadian Revolving Borrowing
to, or continuation of any US Revolving Borrowing or Canadian Revolving Borrowing as, a US Eurodollar Borrowing or a Canadian
US$ Libor Borrowing, as applicable, shall be ineffective, and  if any Borrowing Request requests a US Eurodollar Borrowing
or a Canadian US$ Libor Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as a US ABR Borrowing or a Canadian Borrowing by way of a
Canadian US$-Denominated Base Rate Loan, as applicable.


 






    82


     


    

 


Section 2.12      
Market Disruption Respecting Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances.


 


(a)              
If the Canadian Lender makes a determination in good faith and acting reasonably, which determination shall be conclusive
and binding upon Canadian Borrower, and notifies Canadian Borrower, that (i) there no longer exists an active market for bankers’
acceptances accepted by the Canadian Lender or (ii) the CDOR Rate plus 10 bps will not or does not accurately reflect the
discount rate which would be applicable to a sale of Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances accepted by the Canadian Lender in the
market, then: (A) the right of Canadian Borrower to request Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances shall be suspended until the
Canadian Lender determines that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and so notifies Canadian Borrower; (B) any
outstanding Canadian Borrowing Request requesting a Loan by way of Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances shall be deemed to be a
Canadian Borrowing Request requesting a Canadian Loan by way of Canadian Prime Rate Loans in the amount specified in the original
Canadian Borrowing Request; (C) any outstanding Canadian Borrowing Request requesting a conversion of a Canadian Loan by way
of Canadian US$-Denominated Base Rate Loans or Canadian US$ Libor Loans into a Canadian Loan by way of Canadian Bankers’
Acceptances shall be deemed to be a Canadian Borrowing Request requesting a conversion of such Canadian Loan into a Canadian Loan
by way of Canadian Prime Rate Loans; and (D) any outstanding Canadian Borrowing Request requesting a rollover of a Canadian
Loan by way of Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances shall be deemed to be a Canadian Borrowing Request requesting a conversion of
such Canadian Loans into a Canadian Loan by way of Canadian Prime Rate Loans. The Canadian Lender shall promptly notify Canadian
Borrower of any suspension of Canadian Borrower’s right to request the Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances and of any termination
of any such suspension.


 


Section 2.13      
US Yield Protection.


 


(a)        
Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:


 


(i)           impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement
against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in, by any US Lender (except any reserve
requirement reflected in the US Adjusted LIBOR Rate);


 


(ii)          subject
any US Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement (except for (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes
described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and (C) Connection
Income Taxes); or


 


(iii)         impose
on any US Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement
or US Eurodollar Loans made by such US Lender;


 


and the result of any of the foregoing
shall be to increase the cost to such US Lender of making, continuing, converting to or maintaining any US Eurodollar Loan (or
of maintaining its obligation to make any such US Eurodollar Loan), or to increase the cost to such US Lender or such US Lender’s
holding company, if any, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such US Lender hereunder (whether of principal,
interest or any other amount) then, upon written request of such US Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), US Borrower
will pay to such US Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such US Lender for such additional costs incurred
or reduction suffered.


 


(b)        Capital Requirements. If any US Lender determines (in good faith, but in its sole absolute discretion) that any Change
in Law affecting such US Lender or any lending office of such US Lender or such US Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding
capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such US Lender’s capital
or on the capital of such US Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such
US Lender or the US Loans made by such US Lender, to a level below that which such US Lender or such US Lender’s holding
company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such US Lender’s policies and the policies
of such US Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time upon written request
of such US Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) US Borrower will pay to such US Lender, such additional amount or amounts
as will compensate such US Lender or such US Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.


 






    83


     


    

 


(c)         Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a US Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate
such US Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of
this Section 2.13 and delivered to US Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. US Borrower shall
pay such US Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.


 


(d)         Delay
in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any US Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.13
shall not constitute a waiver of such US Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that US Borrower
shall not be required to compensate a US Lender pursuant to this Section 2.13 for any increased costs incurred
or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such US Lender notifies US Borrower of the Change in Law giving
rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such US Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that,
if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above
shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).


 


(e)         Mitigation.
Each US Lender requesting compensation under this Section 2.13 shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
mitigate, avoid, or eliminate the amount of any such increased costs in accordance with Section 2.19, so long as
taking such efforts would not be materially disadvantageous to such US Lender or expose any US Lender to an unreimbursed cost
or expense.


 


Section 2.14      
Canadian Change in Law.


 


(a)       
Subject to clause (b) below, if the adoption of any applicable law, regulation, treaty or official
directive (whether or not having the force of law) or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof by any
court or by any Governmental Authority or any other entity charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or compliance
by the Canadian Lender with any request or direction (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority or entity hereafter:


 


(i)           subjects
the Canadian Lender to, or causes the withdrawal or termination of any previously granted exemption with respect to, any Taxes
(other than Taxes on the Canadian Lender’s income, gains or capital), or changes the basis of taxation of payments due to
the Canadian Lender, or increases any existing Taxes (other than Taxes on the Canadian Lender’s income, gains or capital)
on payments of principal, interest or other amounts payable by Canadian Borrower to the Canadian Lender under this Agreement;


 


(ii)          imposes,
modifies or deems applicable any reserve, liquidity, special deposit, regulatory or similar requirement against assets or liabilities
held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by the Canadian Lender, or any acquisition of funds for loans or commitments
to fund loans or obligations in respect of undrawn, committed lines of credit or in respect of Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances
accepted by the Canadian Lender;


 


(iii)         imposes
on the Canadian Lender or requires there to be maintained by the Canadian Lender any capital adequacy or additional capital requirements
(including a requirement which affects the Canadian Lender’s allocation of capital resources to its obligations) in respect
of any Canadian Loan or obligation of the Canadian Lender hereunder, or any other condition with respect to this Agreement; or


 






    84


     


    

 


(iv)        directly
or indirectly affects the cost to the Canadian Lender of making available, funding or maintaining any Canadian Loan or otherwise
imposes on the Canadian Lender any other condition or requirement affecting this Agreement or any Canadian Loan or any obligation
of the Canadian Lender hereunder;


 


and the result of the foregoing, in the
sole determination of the Canadian Lender acting in good faith, is:


 


(v)          to
increase the cost to the Canadian Lender of performing its obligations hereunder with respect to any Canadian Loan;


 


(vi)         to
reduce any amount received or receivable by the Canadian Lender hereunder or its effective return hereunder or on its capital
in respect of any Canadian Loan;


 


(vii)        to
reduce the standby fees payable to the Canadian Lender pursuant to Section 2.05(a)(ii); or


 


(viii)       to
cause the Canadian Lender to make any payment with respect to or to forego any return on or calculated by reference to, any amount
received or receivable by the Canadian Lender hereunder with respect to any Canadian Loan;


 


the Canadian Lender shall determine that
amount of money which shall compensate the Canadian Lender for such increase in cost, payments to be made or reduction in income
or return or interest foregone (herein referred to as “Additional Compensation”). Upon the Canadian Lender
having determined that it is entitled to Additional Compensation in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Canadian
Lender shall promptly so notify Canadian Borrower. The Canadian Lender shall provide Canadian Borrower with a photocopy of the
relevant law, rule, guideline, regulation, treaty or official directive (or, if it is impracticable to provide a photocopy, a written
summary of the same) and a certificate of a duly authorized officer of the Canadian Lender setting forth the Additional Compensation
and the basis of calculation therefor, which shall be conclusive evidence of such Additional Compensation in the absence of manifest
error. Canadian Borrower shall pay to the Canadian Lender within 10 Banking Days of the giving of such notice the Canadian Lender’s
Additional Compensation. The Canadian Lender shall be entitled to be paid such Additional Compensation from time to time to the
extent that the provisions of this Section are then applicable notwithstanding that the Canadian Lender has previously been paid
any Additional Compensation.


 


(b)         The
Canadian Lender agrees that it will not claim Additional Compensation from Canadian Borrower under clause (a) above
if  it is not generally claiming similar compensation from its other customers in similar circumstances;  in respect
of any period greater than 3 months prior to the delivery of notice in respect thereof by the Canadian Lender, unless the adoption,
change or other event or circumstance giving rise to the claim for Additional Compensation is retroactive or is retroactive in
effect; or  if such Additional Compensation results from the Canadian Lender being a “non-resident” of Canada
that does not deal with Canadian Borrower on an “arm’s length” basis (both within the provisions of the Income
Tax Act (Canada) or, where the Canadian Lender is not a resident of Canada, that arises as a result of a change of applicable
law in Canada.)

Section 2.15      
Prepayment of Canadian Portion.


 


In addition to the other
rights and options of Canadian Borrower hereunder and notwithstanding any contrary provisions hereof, if the Canadian Lender gives
the notice provided for in Section 2.14 with respect to any Loan (an “Affected Loan”),
Canadian Borrower may, upon 2 Banking Days’ notice to that effect given to the Canadian Lender (which notice shall be irrevocable),
prepay in full without penalty the Affected Loan (without giving effect to the application of payments required in Section
2.10(d)) outstanding together with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount so prepaid up to the date of such
prepayment, such Additional Compensation as may be applicable to the date of such payment and all costs, losses and expenses incurred
by the Canadian Lender by reason of the liquidation or re deployment of deposits or other funds or for any other reason whatsoever
resulting from the repayment of such Affected Loan or any part thereof on other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period,
and upon such payment being made that Canadian Lender’s obligations to make such Affected Loans to Canadian Borrower under
this Agreement shall terminate.


 


Section 2.16      
Breakage Payments.


 


In the event of (a) the
payment or prepayment, whether optional or mandatory, of any principal of any US Eurodollar Loan or Canadian US$ Libor Loan earlier
than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion
of any US Eurodollar Loan or Canadian US$ Libor Loan earlier than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the
failure (for a reason other than the failure of a Lender to fund a Loan required to be funded hereunder) to borrow, convert, continue
or prepay any Revolving Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered by a Borrower pursuant hereto or (d) the assignment
of any US Eurodollar Loan or Canadian US$ Libor Loan earlier than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result
of a request by a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19(b), then, in any such event, upon written demand by a US Lender
(with a copy to the Administrative Agent) or the Canadian Lender, such Borrower shall compensate such Lender for the loss, cost
and expense incurred by such Lender as a result of such event. In the case of a US Eurodollar Loan or Canadian US$ Libor Loan,
such loss, cost or expense to any such Lender shall be deemed to include an amount reasonably determined by such Lender to be the
excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such US Eurodollar Loan
or Canadian US$ Libor Loan had such event not occurred, at the US Adjusted LIBOR Rate that would have been applicable to such US
Eurodollar Loan or the Canadian US$ Libor Rate that would have been applicable to such Canadian US$ Libor Loan, as applicable,
for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure
to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such US Eurodollar Loan or Canadian
US$ Libor Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest
rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount
and period from other banks in the Eurodollar market. A certificate of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail any amount
or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section, accompanied by related calculations, shall be delivered
to US Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) or Canadian Borrower, as applicable, and shall be conclusive and binding
absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten
days after receipt thereof.


 






    86


     


    

 


Section 2.17      
Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs.


 


(a)        
Payments Generally. The applicable Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under
any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or of amounts payable under Section 2.13, 2.14,
2.18 or 14.03, or otherwise) on or before the time expressly required hereunder or under such other
Loan Document for such payment (or, with respect to US Borrowings, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 2:00 p.m., New
York time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim. Any amounts received
after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Lender, as applicable, be deemed
to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall
be made  with respect to US Borrowings, to the Administrative Agent at its offices at Stamford, Connecticut, except payments
to be made directly to any Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and  with respect to Canadian Borrowings, by deposit
or transfer thereof to the accounts of the Canadian Lender maintained at the Canadian Lender’s Branch and designated by the
Canadian Lender for such purpose or at such other place as Canadian Borrower and the Canadian Lender may from time to time agree,
except that payments pursuant to Section 2.13, 2.14, 2.18 and 14.03
shall be made directly to the persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the persons
specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other US Lender
Party to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a
day that is not a Business Day, unless specified otherwise, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business
Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All
payments of principal and interest under each Loan Document shall be made in the currency in which the Loan is outstanding.


 


(b)        
Pro Rata Treatment.


 


(i)         
Each payment by US Borrower of interest in respect of the US Loans made to US Borrower shall be applied to the amounts of
such obligations owing to the US Lenders pro rata according to the respective amounts then due and owing to such US Lenders.


 


(ii)          Each
payment by US Borrower on account of principal of the US Revolving Borrowings made to US Borrower shall be made pro rata
according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the US Revolving Loans then held by such US Revolving Lenders.


 


(iii)         Each payment by the US Borrower on account of US Reimbursement Obligations shall be applied to the amounts of such obligations
owing to the US Issuing Banks pro rata according to the respective amounts then due and owing to such Issuing Banks.


 






    87


     


    

 


(c)         Insufficient
Funds. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all applicable
amounts of principal, interest and fees that constitute US Obligations then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first,
toward payment of applicable interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with
the applicable amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, toward payment of applicable
principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the applicable amounts of principal
then due to such parties. It is understood that the foregoing does not apply to any adequate protection payments under any federal,
state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding, and that each Administrative Agent may, subject to
any applicable federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar orders, distribute any adequate protection
payments it receives on behalf of the applicable Lenders to such Lenders in its sole discretion (i.e., whether to pay the
earliest accrued interest, all accrued interest on a pro rata basis or otherwise).


 


(d)         Sharing of Set-Off. If any US Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain
payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its US Loans or other US Obligations resulting in such US Lender’s
receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its US Loans and accrued interest thereon or other US Obligations
greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the US Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (i) notify
the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (ii) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the US Loans and such
other obligations of the other US Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such
payments shall be shared by the US Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest
on their respective US Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:


 


(i)           if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations
shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and


 


(ii)          the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by US Borrower pursuant
to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (B) any payment obtained by a US Lender as consideration
for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its US Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to Holdings
or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).


 


Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing
and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Requirements of Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation
pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such
participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation. If under
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or any similar law any Beneficiary receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff or counterclaim
to which this Section 2.17(d) applies, such Beneficiary shall to the extent practicable, exercise its rights
in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights to which the Beneficiary is entitled under this Section 2.17(d)
to share in the benefits of the recovery of such secured claim.


 






    88


     


    

 


(e)         Borrower
Default. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from US Borrower prior to the date on which any payment
is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the US Lenders hereunder that US Borrower will not make such payment, the
Administrative Agent may assume that US Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance
upon such assumption, distribute to US Lenders the amount due. In such event, if US Borrower has not in fact made such payment,
then each of the US Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed
to such US Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding
the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the
Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.


 


Section 2.18      
Taxes.


 


(a)        
Payments Free of Taxes.


 


(i)          
With respect only to US Obligations, any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of US Loan Parties hereunder
or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as
required by applicable Requirements of Law. If the applicable Withholding Agent shall be required by applicable Requirements of
Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable Withholding Agent) to deduct or withhold any Taxes from such
payments, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deductions or withholding and shall timely pay the
full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law and,
if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable US Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that
after all required deductions or withholdings have been made (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums
payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions
or withholding been made.


 


(ii)          With
respect only to Canadian Obligations:


 


(A)          any
and all payments by Canadian Borrower to the Canadian Lender hereunder shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction
or withholding for or on account of, any and all present or future Taxes imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any
Governmental Authority or under the laws of any international tax authority imposed on the Canadian Lender, or by or on behalf
of the foregoing (and, for greater certainty, nothing in this Section shall make Canadian Borrower liable for any Taxes imposed
on or measured by the recipient’s income, gains or capital). In addition, Canadian Borrower agrees to pay any present or
future stamp, transfer, registration, excise, issues, documentary or other taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any
payment made under this Agreement or the Canadian Loans or in respect of the execution, delivery or registration or the compliance
with this Agreement or the other Documents contemplated hereunder other than taxes imposed on or measured by the recipient’s
income, gains or capital. Canadian Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless the Canadian Lender for the full amount of all of
the foregoing Taxes or other amounts paid or payable by the Canadian Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest,
additions to tax and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses) resulting therefrom or with respect thereto which arise from any payment
made under or pursuant to this Agreement or the Canadian Loans or in respect of the execution, delivery or registration of, or
compliance with, this Agreement or the other Documents other than Taxes imposed on or measured by the recipient’s income,
gains, capital or amounts in respect of which a sum payable hereunder has been increased under the immediately succeeding clause (B).


 






    89


     


    

 


(B)           If Canadian Borrower shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any amount from any payment or other amount required
to be paid to the Canadian Lender hereunder, or if any liability for Taxes shall be imposed or shall arise from or in respect of
any sum payable hereunder, then the sum payable to the Canadian Lender hereunder shall be increased as may be necessary so that
after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings payable for additional sums payable
under this provision) the Canadian Lender receives an amount equal to the amount it would have received had no such deductions
or withholdings been made; in addition, Canadian Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld for such liabilities to
the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law, such payment to be made (if the liability
is imposed on Canadian Borrower) for its own account or (if the liability is imposed on the Canadian Lender) on behalf of and in
the name of the Canadian Lender. If the liability is imposed on the Canadian Lender, Canadian Borrower shall deliver to the Canadian
Lender evidence satisfactory to the Canadian Lender, acting reasonably, of the payment to the relevant taxation authority or other
authority of the full amount deducted or withheld.


 


(C)           The
Canadian Lender shall use reasonable efforts to contest (to the extent contestation is reasonable) such imposition or assertion
of such Taxes and shall reimburse to Canadian Borrower the amount of any reduction, or credit, relief or remission in respect
of, Taxes, to the extent of amounts that have been paid by Canadian Borrower in respect of such Taxes in accordance with this
Agreement, as a result of such contestation or otherwise and, provided that, the Canadian Lender shall not have any obligation
to expend its own funds, suffer any economic hardship or take any action detrimental to its interests (as determined by the Canadian
Lender in its sole discretion, acting reasonably) in connection therewith unless it shall have received from Canadian Borrower
payment therefor or an indemnity with respect thereto, satisfactory to it.


 


(b)         Payment of Other Taxes by US Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above,
the US Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law,
or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes imposed on or with respect
to any obligation of US Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document to which it is a party.


 






    90


     


    

 


(c)         Indemnification
by US Borrower. The US Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 20 days after written demand
therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to
amounts payable under this Section) paid or payable by such Recipient, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.
A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to US Borrower by a US Lender Party (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a US Lender Party, shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Recipient shall be indemnified for any Indemnified
Taxes hereunder unless the Recipient makes written demand on US Borrower for such reimbursement no later than six months after
the earlier of (i) the date on which the relevant Governmental Authority makes written demand upon such Recipient for payment
of such Indemnified Taxes, and (ii) the date on which such Recipient has made payment of such Indemnified Taxes; provided
that if the Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted giving rise to such claims are retroactive, then the six-month period referred
to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.


 


(d)         Evidence
of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by a US Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to
this Section 2.18, the US Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified
copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or
other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.


 


(e)         Status
of Lenders.


 


(i)           Each
US Lender Party that is entitled to an exemption form or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any
Loan Document shall deliver to US Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such US Lender Party
becomes a US Lender Party under this Agreement and at the time or times reasonably requested by US Borrower or the Administrative
Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law as will permit payments
hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any
US Lender Party, if reasonably requested by US Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed
by applicable Requirements of Law or reasonably requested by US Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable US Borrower
or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such US Lender Party is subject to information reporting requirements.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation
(other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.18(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D)
below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would
subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position
of such Lender.


 






    91


     


    

 


(ii)          Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:


 


(A)          any US Lender Party that is a US Person shall deliver to US Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies
as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such US Lender Party becomes a US Lender Party under this
Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of US Borrower or the Administrative Agent), duly completed
originals of IRS Form W-9 (or applicable successor form) certifying that such US Lender Party is exempt from US federal backup
withholding Tax; and


 


(B)           any US Lender Party that is a Foreign Lender Party shall deliver to US Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number
of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such US Lender Party becomes a US Lender Party
under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of US Borrower or the Administrative Agent),
but only if such US Lender Party is legally entitled to do so, whichever of the following is applicable:


 


(1)          
in the case of such a US Lender Party claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party
(a) with respect to payments of interest hereunder or under any other Loan Document, duly completed originals of IRS Form
W-8BEN (or applicable successor form) or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or applicable successor form), as applicable, establishing an exemption
from, or reduction of, US federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty, and (b) with
respect to any other applicable payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document, duly completed originals of IRS Form
W-8BEN (or applicable successor form) or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or applicable successor form), as applicable, establishing an exemption
from, or reduction of, US federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income”
article of such tax treaty;


 


(2)           duly completed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor form);


 


(3)           in the case of such a US Lender Party claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c)
of the Code, (a) a certificate, in substantially the form of Exhibit H-1 to the effect that such US Lender Party
is not (i) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (ii) a “10 percent
shareholder” of US Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or (iii) a “controlled
foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (b) duly completed originals of IRS Form
W-8BEN (or applicable successor form) or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or applicable successor form), as applicable; or


 






    92


     


    

 


(4)           to the extent such a US Lender Party is not the beneficial owner, duly completed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor
form), accompanied by an IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor form), an IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor form), an IRS Form W-8BEN-E
(or any successor form), a certificate in substantially the form of Exhibit H-2 or Exhibit H-3, an IRS
Form W-9 (or any successor form), and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided
that, if such US Lender Party is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such US Lender Party are claiming
the portfolio interest exemption, such US Lender Party may provide a certificate, in substantially the form of Exhibit H-4,
on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;


 


(C)           any US Lender Party that is a Foreign Lender Party shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to US Borrower
and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such US Lender Party becomes a US Lender Party under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of US Borrower or the Administrative Agent) any other form prescribed
by applicable Requirements of Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding Tax
duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law to permit
US Borrower and the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and


 


(D)           In the case of a US Lender Party that would be subject to United States federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA on payments
made to or on account of such US Lender Party hereunder or any other Loan Document if such US Lender Party were to fail to comply
with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code,
as applicable), such US Lender Party shall deliver to US Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed
by applicable Requirements of Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by US Borrower or the Administrative Agent such
documentation prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code)
and such additional documentation reasonably requested by US Borrower and the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for US Borrower
and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that such US Lender Party has complied
with such US Lender Party’s obligations under FATCA, or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from any such payments.
Solely for purposes of this paragraph, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.


 


Each US Lender Party
agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall
update such form or certification or promptly notify US Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability
to do so.


 






    93


     


    

 


(f)          Treatment
of Certain Refunds. If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund
of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.18 (including by the payment of
additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.18), it shall pay to US Borrower an amount equal to such refund
(but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by US Borrower under this Section 2.18
with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Recipient and without
interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that
US Borrower, upon the request of such Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to US Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.18
(plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Recipient
in the event such Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be
construed to require any Recipient to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems
confidential) to US Borrower or any other person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event will a Recipient be required
to pay any amount to US Borrower the payment of which would place such Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than
such Recipient would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had never been deducted,
withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.


 


(g)         Indemnification
by the US Lenders. Each US Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor,
for  any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such US Lender (but only to the extent that US Borrower has not already indemnified
the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the US Borrower to do so),  any
Taxes attributable to such US Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 14.04 relating
to the maintenance of a Participant Register and  any Excluded Taxes attributable to such US Lender, in each case, that are
payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom
or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental
Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any US Lender by the Administrative Agent
shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each US Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any
and all amounts at any time owing to such US Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to
the US Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (g).


 


Section 2.19      
Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.


 


(a)         Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13
or Section 2.14, or requires a Borrower to pay any additional amount to such Lender or any Governmental Authority
for the account of such Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, then such Lender shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to designate a different lending office (including an existing office in another jurisdiction) for funding or booking its
Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the
reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation, change, or assignment  would avoid the imposition of, or in the future
eliminate or reduce, amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.13, Section 2.14 or Section 2.18,
as the case may be and  would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially
disadvantageous to such Lender. The applicable Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred
by such Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. A certificate setting forth such costs and expenses and accompanying
calculations submitted by such Lender to such Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(b)         Replacement
of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.13 or Section 2.14,
or if a Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to such Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of such
Lender pursuant to Section 2.18(a), or if a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or if a Borrower exercises its replacement
rights under Section 14.02(c), then such Borrower may at any time, at its sole expense and effort (except that
assignment costs and expenses associated with a replacement of a Defaulting Lender may be recovered from such Defaulting Lender),
upon notice to such Lender and, in the case of a US Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign
and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 14.04(b)),
all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall
assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:


 


(i)           With
respect to US Borrowings, US Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified
in Section 14.04(b);


 


(ii)          subject to Section 2.21, such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal
of its Loans and participations in Swingline Loans, if any, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable
to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.16), from the assignee
(to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or such Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);


 


(iii)         in
the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.13 or payments required
to be made pursuant to Section 2.18, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments
thereafter; and


 


(iv)         such
assignment does not conflict with applicable Requirements of Law.


 


A Lender shall not be required to make
any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling
such Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.


 


Each Lender agrees
that, if a Borrower elects to replace such Lender in accordance with this Section 2.19(b), such Lender shall (x) with
respect to such Lender’s US Commitments and US Loans, promptly execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment
and Assumption to evidence the assignment and shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any US Note (if US Notes have been issued
in respect of such Lender’s US Loans) subject to such Assignment and Assumption and (y) with respect to such Lender’s
Canadian Commitments and Canadian Loans, promptly execute and deliver to US Borrower documentation to evidence such assignment
and assumption as US Borrower shall request, and, in each case, such Lender being replaced shall no longer constitute a “Lender”
hereunder and all of its Commitments shall be deemed terminated, and the Eligible Assignee replacing such Lender shall constitute
a “Lender” hereunder (including assumption of the Commitment, if any, and other obligations of the Lender being so
replaced); provided that the failure of any such Lender to execute an Assignment and Assumption or other assignment and
assumption documentation shall not render such assignment invalid and, with respect to US Commitments and US Loans, such assignment
shall be recorded in the Register.

Section 2.20      
Swingline Loans.


 


(a)         Swingline Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Swingline Lender agrees, severally
and not jointly, in reliance upon the agreements of the other US Lenders set forth in this Section 2.20, to
make Swingline Loans to US Borrower from time to time during the Availability Period; provided that (i) the aggregate
principal amount of all Swingline Loans made by such Swingline Lender at any time outstanding shall not exceed such Swingline Lender’s
Swingline Commitment, (ii) the Unsecured Utilization (after giving effect to such Swingline Loan) shall not exceed the Unsecured
Commitment Cap and (iii) the aggregate principal amount of all Swingline Loans at any time outstanding, after giving effect
to any Swingline Loan, will not result in the aggregate US Revolving Exposures exceeding the aggregate US Revolving Commitments;
provided further that US Borrower shall not use the proceeds of any Swingline Loan made by any Swingline Lender to refinance
an outstanding Swingline Loan made by any other Swingline Lender. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions
set forth herein, US Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans. It is understood and agreed that all Swingline Loans
shall constitute US Unsecured Loans and shall in no event be designated as US Secured Loans.


 


(b)         Swingline
Loans. To request a Swingline Loan, US Borrower shall deliver, by hand delivery or telecopier, a duly completed and executed
Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Swingline Lender, not later than 12:00 noon, New York time, on
the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall
be a Business Day) and the amount of the requested Swingline Loan. Each Swingline Loan shall be a US ABR Loan. The applicable
Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to US Borrower to an account as directed by US Borrower in the US Borrowing
Request maintained with the Administrative Agent by 3:00 p.m., New York time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan. US
Borrower shall not request a Swingline Loan if at the time of or immediately after giving effect to the US Borrowing contemplated
by such request a Default has occurred and is continuing or would immediately result therefrom. Swingline Loans shall be made
in minimum amounts of US$1,000,000 and integral multiples of US$500,000 above such amount.


 


(c)         Prepayment. US Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to repay any Swingline Loan, in whole
or in part, upon giving written notice to the applicable Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent before 12:00 (noon), New
York time, on the proposed date of prepayment.


 






    96


     


    

 


(d)         Participations.
Each Swingline Lender may at any time in its discretion, by written notice given to the Administrative Agent (provided
such notice requirement shall not apply if such Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent are the same entity) not later than
11:00 a.m., New York time, on the next succeeding Business Day following such notice require the US Revolving Lenders to acquire
participations on such next succeeding Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans made by such Swingline Lender then
outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of such Swingline Loans in which US Revolving Lenders will participate.
Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each US Revolving Lender, specifying
in such notice such US Lender’s US Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each US Revolving Lender hereby
absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account
of such Swingline Lender, such US Lender’s US Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each US Revolving Lender
acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute
and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default
or reduction or termination of the US Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding
or reduction whatsoever (so long as and to the extent such payment shall not cause such US Lender’s US Revolving Exposure
to exceed such US Lender’s US Revolving Commitment). Each US Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this
paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(d)
with respect to US Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.02 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the
payment obligations of the US Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Swingline
Lender the amounts so received by it from the US Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify US Borrower of any participations
in any Swingline Loan acquired by the US Revolving Lenders pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such
Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the applicable Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by any
Swingline Lender from US Borrower (or other party on behalf of US Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by such
Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent. Any
such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the US Revolving Lenders
that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations
in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve US Borrower of any default in the payment thereof. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any US Loans extended by the US Revolving Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.20
shall be designated as US Unsecured Loans and may only be made to the extent that after giving effect to the making and
use of proceeds of such US Loan, the Unsecured Utilization does not exceed the Unsecured Commitment Cap.


 


Section 2.21      
Defaulting Lenders.


 


Notwithstanding any
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply
for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:


 


(a)         (i) if such Lender is a US Defaulting Lender, the US Commitment Fee shall cease to accrue on the US Commitment of such
Lender and (ii) if such Lender is a Canadian Defaulting Lender, the Canadian Commitment Fee shall cease to accrue on the Canadian
Commitment of such Lender, in each case, so long as it is a Defaulting Lender;


 






    97


     


    

 


(b)         if
any Swingline Exposure exists at the time a US Lender becomes a US Defaulting Lender then:


 


(i)            if no Default or Event of Default shall exist, all or any part of such Swingline Exposure shall be reallocated among the
non-US Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective US Pro Rata Percentages but only to the extent the sum of all non-US
Defaulting Lenders’ US Revolving Exposures plus such US Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure does not exceed the
total of all non-US Defaulting Lenders’ US Revolving Commitments;


 


(ii)           if the reallocation described in the immediately preceding clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially,
be effected, US Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent prepay such Defaulting Lender’s
Swingline Exposure;


 


(c)         so
long as any US Lender is a US Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lenders shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan, unless
it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the US Revolving Commitments of the non-US Defaulting Lenders
and participations in any such newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-US Defaulting Lenders in accordance with
their respective US Pro Rata Percentages (and US Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein);


 


(d)         any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of any such
US Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a
US Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 14.08 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by
the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such US Defaulting Lender to the Administrative
Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such US Defaulting Lender to any US
Issuing Bank or Swingline Lenders hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the US Issuing Banks’ US Fronting Exposure
with respect to such US Defaulting Lender in accordance with this Section; fourth, as the US Borrower may request (so long
as no US Default or US Event of Default exists), to the funding of any US Loan in respect of which such US Defaulting Lender has
failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so
determined by the Administrative Agent and the US Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy
such US Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to US Loans under this Agreement and cash collateralize
the US Issuing Banks’ future US Fronting Exposure with respect to such US Defaulting Lender with respect to future US Letters
of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with this Section; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the
US Lenders, the US Issuing Banks or Swingline Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained
by any US Lender, the US Issuing Banks or Swingline Lenders against such US Defaulting Lender as a result of such US Defaulting
Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document; seventh, so long as no US
Default or US Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the US Borrower as a result of any judgment of a
court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the US Borrower against such US Defaulting Lender as a result of such US Defaulting
Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document; and eighth, to such US Defaulting
Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if  such payment is a payment of the principal
amount of any US Loans or US Reimbursement Obligations in respect of which such US Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate
share, and  such US Loans were made or the related US Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth
in Section 5.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the US Loans of, and US
Reimbursement Obligations owed to, all non-US Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any
US Loans of, or US Reimbursement Obligations owed to, such US Defaulting Lender until such time as all US Loans and funded and
unfunded participations in the US Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such US Defaulting Lender’s US L/C Exposure
and Swingline Loans are held by the US Lenders pro rata in accordance with the US Revolving Commitments without giving effect to
clause (b) above or clause (f) below. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts
paid or payable to a US Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a US Defaulting Lender or to post cash
collateral pursuant to this Section shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such US Defaulting Lender, and each US Lender irrevocably
consents hereto;


 






    98


     


    

 


(e)         any
amount payable to such Canadian Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise) shall,
in lieu of being distributed to such Canadian Defaulting Lender, be retained by Canadian Borrower in a segregated non-interest
bearing account and, subject to any applicable Requirements of Law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Canadian
Borrower first, to the funding of any Canadian Loan in respect of which such Canadian Defaulting Lender has failed to fund
its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Canadian Borrower, second, if so determined by Canadian
Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata to satisfy such Canadian Defaulting Lender’s potential future
funding obligations with respect to Canadian Loans under this Agreement, third, to the payment of any amounts owing to
Canadian Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Canadian Borrower against such
Canadian Defaulting Lender as a result of such Canadian Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement
and fourth, to such Canadian Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction;


 


(f)          if any US L/C Exposure exists with respect to such US Lender at the time such US Lender becomes a US Defaulting Lender,
then:


 


(i)            all
or any part of the US L/C Exposure of such US Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated (effective as of the date such US Lender
becomes a US Defaulting Lender) among the non-US Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective US Pro Rata Percentages
(for the purposes of such reallocation, such US Defaulting Lender’s US Revolving Commitment shall be disregarded in determining
the non-US Defaulting Lenders’ respective US Pro Rata Percentages), but only to the extent that  the sum of all non-US
Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposures plus such US Defaulting Lender’s US L/C Exposure does not exceed the
total of all non-US Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments,  after giving effect to any such reallocation, no non-US Defaulting
Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure shall exceed such non-US Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and  no Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing at such time and the other conditions set forth in Section 5.02 have been satisfied
at such time;


 






    99


     


    

 


(ii)           if
the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the US Borrower
shall, within one Business Day following the US Borrower’s receipt of written notice from the Administrative Agent, Cash
Collateralize for the benefit of the applicable Issuing Banks only US Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such US Defaulting
Lender’s US L/C Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above)
in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.22(i) for so long as such US L/C Exposure is outstanding;


 


(iii)          if US Borrower Cash Collateralizes any portion of such US Defaulting Lender’s US L/C Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above,
the US Borrower shall not be required to pay any US Letter of Credit fees pursuant to Section 2.05 with respect
to such US Defaulting Lender’s US L/C Exposure during the period such US Defaulting Lender’s US L/C Exposure is Cash
Collateralized by US Borrower;


 


(iv)          if
all or any portion of such US Defaulting Lender’s US L/C Exposure is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above,
then all US Letter of Credit fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender under Section 2.05
with respect to such US Defaulting Lender’s reallocated US L/C Exposure shall be payable to the non-US Defaulting
Lenders in accordance with such non-US Defaulting Lenders’ US Pro Rata Percentages after giving effect to such reallocation;


 


(v)           if all or any portion of such US Defaulting Lender’s US L/C Exposure is neither reallocated nor Cash Collateralized
pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of
any US Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all Letter of Credit fees that otherwise would have been payable to such US
Defaulting Lender under Section 2.05 with respect to such US Defaulting Lender’s unreallocated US L/C
Exposure shall be payable to the US Issuing Banks, ratably based on the portion of the US Fronting Exposure attributable to the
US Letters of Credit issued by each US Issuing Bank, until and to the extent that such US L/C Exposure is reallocated and/or Cash
Collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above; and


 


(g)         so
long as such US Lender is determined by the Administrative Agent or any US Issuing Bank to be a US Defaulting Lender, such Issuing
Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any US Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related US Fronting
Exposure and the US Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding US L/C Exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the
non-US Defaulting Lenders and/or Cash Collateral will be provided by US Borrower in accordance with Section 2.21,
and participating interests in any newly issued or increased US Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-US Defaulting Lenders
in a manner consistent with Section 2.21 (and such US Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).


 


In the event that the Administrative Agent,
US Borrower or the Swingline Lenders, as the case may be, each agrees that a US Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters
that caused such US Lender to be a US Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure of the US Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect
the inclusion of such US Lender’s US Commitment and on such date such US Lender shall purchase at par such of the US Loans
of the other US Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such US Lender to hold such US
Loans in accordance with its US Pro Rata Percentage.

The rights and remedies
against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.21 are in addition to other rights and remedies that any Borrower,
the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lenders and the non- Defaulting Lenders may have against such Defaulting Lender. The arrangements
permitted or required by this Section 2.21 shall be permitted under this Agreement, notwithstanding any limitation
on Liens or the pro rata sharing provisions or otherwise. The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section
2.21 are in addition to other rights and remedies that any Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lenders and
the non-Defaulting Lenders may have against such Defaulting Lender.


 


Section 2.22      
US Letters of Credit.


 


(a)        
General.  


 


(i)            Subject
to the terms and conditions hereof, including, without limitation, the conditions precedent in Section 5.02,
the limitations set forth in the definition of the term “US Issuing Bank” and any applicable requirements
of Section 2.21, each US Issuing Bank agrees, severally and not jointly, to issue, from time to time prior to the
termination of the Availability Period, at the request of US Borrower and on behalf of the US Lenders and in reliance on their
obligations under this Section 2.22, one or more US Letters of Credit for US Borrower’s account in any
Accepted Currency in a face amount in each case of at least $10,000, and in an aggregate undrawn face amount for all US Letters
of Credit at any time outstanding not to exceed the applicable Letters of Credit Maximum Amount; provided, that no US Issuing
Bank shall issue, increase or extend a US Letter of Credit pursuant to this Section 2.22,  if, immediately
after the issuance, increase or extension thereof, the outstanding aggregate US Revolving Exposures would thereby exceed the US
Revolving Commitments,  if, immediately after the issuance, increase or extension thereof, the aggregate undrawn face amount
of all US Letters of Credit then outstanding would at any time thereafter (giving effect to the respective scheduled expiration
dates thereof and any automatic extensions provided therein) exceed the Letters of Credit Maximum Amount (including any individual
maximum amounts for any individual US Issuing Bank as described in the definition of Letters of Credit Maximum Amount), or  if
the issuance of such US Letter of Credit would violate any legal or regulatory restriction then applicable to such US Issuing
Bank or any US Lender as notified by such US Issuing Bank or such US Lender to the Administrative Agent before the date of issuance
of such US Letter of Credit. If the Administrative Agent notifies the US Issuing Banks that any conditions precedent set forth
in Section 5.02 have not been satisfied and instructs the US Issuing Banks to suspend the issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension of US Letters of Credit, no US Issuing Bank shall issue, amend, renew or extend any US Letter of Credit without
the consent of the Administrative Agent until such notice is withdrawn by the Administrative Agent. If the Administrative Agent
so notifies the US Issuing Banks pursuant to the previous sentence, it shall also provide prompt notice of same to the US Borrower.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, a US Letter of Credit issued hereunder may contain a statement
to the effect that such US Letter of Credit is issued for the account of any Guarantor; provided, that notwithstanding
such statement, US Borrower shall be the actual account party for all purposes of this Agreement for such US Letter of Credit
and such statement shall not affect US Borrower’s US Reimbursement Obligations hereunder with respect to such US Letter
of Credit;


 






    101


     


    

 


(ii)           US Borrower may from time to time request that US Letters of Credit be issued in a Discretionary Foreign Currency in accordance
with this Section 2.22(a)(ii) and, in the event that any provision of this Section 2.22(a)(ii)
conflicts with Section 2.22(b), the provisions of this Section 2.22(a)(ii) shall control
with respect to US Letters of Credit issued in Discretionary Foreign Currencies. In the case of any such request with respect to
the issuance of US Letters of Credit in a Discretionary Foreign Currency, such request shall be subject to the approval of the
Administrative Agent and the applicable US Issuing Bank. Any such request shall be made to the Administrative Agent and the applicable
US Issuing Bank not later than 11:00 a.m., New York time, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of the desired
US Letter of Credit issuance (or such other time or date as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the applicable US
Issuing Bank in their sole discretion). In the case of any such request, the Administrative Agent shall promptly advise each applicable
US Issuing Bank thereof. Each US Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent, not later than Noon, New York time, two (2) Business
Days (or such other period of time as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) after receipt of such request,
whether it consents, in its sole discretion, to the issuance of US Letters of Credit in such requested Discretionary Foreign Currency.
Any failure by any US Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding
sentence shall be deemed to be a refusal by such US Issuing Bank to permit US Letters of Credit to be issued in such requested
Discretionary Foreign Currency. If the Administrative Agent and a US Issuing Bank consent to the issuance of US Letters of Credit
in such requested Discretionary Foreign Currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify US Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any refusal or deemed refusal by a US Issuing Bank to issue a US Letter of Credit in a Discretionary Foreign Currency pursuant
to any such request shall be specific to each such request and not a prospective refusal to agree to any such request at a later
date.


 


(b)        
Issuance Procedure.


 


(i)            To request that a US Issuing Bank issue a US Letter of Credit, US Borrower shall deliver to such US Issuing Bank and the
Administrative Agent (with a duplicate copy to an operations employee of such Issuing Bank as designated by such Issuing Bank from
time to time) a duly executed Issuance Request, together with a duly executed Application (unless previously executed and delivered
by US Borrower) for the relevant US Letter of Credit, or such other computerized issuance or application procedure, instituted
from time to time by such Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent and agreed to by US Borrower, completed to the reasonable satisfaction
of such US Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, and such other information as such US Issuing Bank and the Administrative
Agent may reasonably request. In the event of any irreconcilable difference or inconsistency between this Agreement and any Application,
the provisions of this Agreement shall govern. Upon receipt of a properly completed and executed Issuance Request and Application
(as required) and any other reasonably requested information at least three (3) Business Days prior to any requested issuance
date, such Issuing Bank will process such Issuance Request in accordance with its customary procedures and, subject to US Borrower’s
compliance with any applicable requirements of Section 2.21, issue the requested US Letter of Credit on the requested
issuance date. US Borrower may cancel any requested issuance of a US Letter of Credit prior to the issuance thereof. The applicable
US Issuing Bank will notify the Administrative Agent and each US Lender of the amount, currency, and expiration date of each US
Letter of Credit it issues promptly upon issuance thereof. Subject to clause (b)(ii) below, each US Letter
of Credit shall have an expiration date no later than five (5) Business Days before the Maturity Date. If any US Issuing
Bank issues any US Letters of Credit with expiration dates that automatically extend unless such US Issuing Bank gives notice that
the expiration date will not so extend, such US Issuing Bank will give such notice of non-renewal before the time necessary to
prevent such automatic extension if (and will not give such notice of non-renewal before such time unless) before such required
notice date (A) the expiration date of such US Letter of Credit if so extended would be later than five (5) Business Days
before the Maturity Date, (B) the Maturity Date shall have occurred, (C) a Default or an Event of Default exists and the US Required
Lenders have given such US Issuing Bank instructions not to so permit the expiration date of such Letter of Credit to be extended,
or (D) such US Issuing Bank is so directed by US Borrower. Each US Issuing Bank agrees to issue amendments to any US Letter of
Credit issued by it increasing its amount, or extending its expiration date, at the request of US Borrower, subject to the conditions
precedent of Section 5.02 and the other terms and conditions of this Section 2.22, including
without limitation, any applicable requirements of Section 2.21.


 






    102


     


    

 


(ii)             
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with the consent of the applicable US Issuing Bank, any US Letter of Credit
issued by such US Issuing Bank may have an expiration date later than five (5) Business Days before the Maturity Date to any
such later date as may be agreed by the applicable US Issuing Bank, if US Borrower shall provide or cause to be provided, no later
than the Maturity Date  Cash Collateral or a back-to-back letter of credit from a bank or financial institution whose short-term
unsecured debt rating is rated A-3 (or equivalent) or above from either S&P or Moody’s (or such other bank or financial
institution satisfactory to the applicable US Issuing Bank) and which provides that such US Issuing Bank may make a drawing thereunder
in the event that such US Issuing Bank pays a drawing under such US Letter of Credit, in each case, in an amount equal to not less
than 105% of the undrawn face amount of such US Letter of Credit or  other arrangements satisfactory to the applicable Issuing
Bank in its sole discretion shall have been made with respect to such US Letter of Credit; provided, each US Lender’s
participation under Section 2.22(d) in any such US Letter of Credit shall revert to such US Issuing Bank on the Maturity
Date, and no US Lender shall be entitled to any US Letter of Credit fees pursuant to Section 2.05 on and after
the Maturity Date.


 


(iii)          Each
US Issuing Bank that issues a US Letter of Credit agrees to issue amendments to any US Letter of Credit increasing its amount,
or extending its expiration date, at the request of US Borrower, subject to the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.02
(which each US Issuing Bank may assume are satisfied unless notified otherwise by the Administrative Agent) and the other
terms and conditions of this Section 2.22.


 


(iv)          For
the avoidance of doubt, the US L/C Obligations shall in no event constitute US Secured Loans.


 


(c)         US
Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations. US Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to reimburse each US
Issuing Bank in the applicable Accepted Currency in which the applicable US Letter of Credit is denominated (or, if relating to
a US Letter of Credit denominated in a Discretionary Foreign Currency, in the Dollar Equivalent thereof) for each payment or disbursement
made by such US Issuing Bank to settle its obligations under any draft drawn or other payment made under a Letter of Credit (a
 “US Reimbursement Obligation”) within two (2) Business Days from when US Borrower has been notified
in writing by the Administrative Agent or such US Issuing Bank that such draft is paid or other payment is made with either funds
not borrowed hereunder or with a Borrowing made pursuant to Section 2.03 and the other terms and conditions
contained in this Agreement. US Borrower’s US Reimbursement Obligation shall apply to all US Letters of Credit issued hereunder,
regardless of whether the obligations supported by such US Letters of Credit are those of US Borrower, any Guarantor, or any other
Person. The US Reimbursement Obligation shall bear interest (which US Borrower hereby promises to pay) from and after the date
such draft is paid or other payment is made until (but excluding the date) the US Reimbursement Obligation is paid at the lesser
of  the Highest Lawful Rate, or the US Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for US ABR Loans then in effect, in
each case so long as the US Reimbursement Obligation shall not be past due, and thereafter at the default rate per annum as set
forth in Section 2.06, whether or not the Maturity Date shall have occurred. If any such payment or disbursement
is reimbursed to such US Issuing Bank on the date such payment or disbursement is made by such Issuing Bank, interest shall be
paid to such Issuing Bank on the reimbursed amount for one (1) day. Each US Issuing Bank shall give US Borrower notice of
any drawing on a US Letter of Credit issued by it within one (1) Business Day after such drawing is paid.


 


(i)            US Borrower agrees for the benefit of each US Issuing Bank and each US Lender that, notwithstanding any provision of any
Application, the obligations of US Borrower under this Section 2.22(c) and each required Application shall be
absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and each
required Application under all circumstances whatsoever (other than the defense of payment in accordance with this Agreement),
including, without limitation, the following circumstances (subject in all cases to the defense of payment in accordance with this
Agreement):


 


(A)          any
lack of validity or enforceability of any of the US L/C Documents;


 


(B)           any
amendment or waiver of or any consent to depart from all or any of the provisions of any of the US L/C Documents;


 


(C)           the
existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right US Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary of a US Letter
of Credit (or any person for whom a beneficiary may be acting), any US Issuing Bank, any US Lender or any other Person, whether
in connection with this Agreement, another US L/C Document or any unrelated transaction;


 






    103


     


    

 


(D)           any statement or any other document presented under a US 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;


 


(E)            payment
by any US Issuing Bank under a US Letter of Credit against presentation to such US Issuing Bank of a draft or certificate that
does not comply with the terms of the US Letter of Credit; or


 


(F)           any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by any US Issuing Bank, any US Lender or any other Person or any other
event or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.22(c), constitute a legal
or equitable discharge of US Borrower’s obligations hereunder, under an Issuance Request or under an Application; provided,
however, the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any US Issuing Bank from liability to US Borrower to the extent of
any direct damages (but excluding consequential damages, which are hereby waived to the extent not prohibited by applicable law)
suffered by US Borrower that are caused by the US Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.


 


(d)         The Participating Interests. Each US Lender severally and not jointly agrees to purchase from each US Issuing Bank,
and each US Issuing Bank hereby agrees to sell to each US Lender, an undivided percentage participating interest, to the extent
of its US Pro Rata Percentage, in each US Letter of Credit issued by, and US Reimbursement Obligation owed to, such US Issuing
Bank in connection with a US Letter of Credit. Upon any failure by US Borrower to pay any US Reimbursement Obligation in connection
with a US Letter of Credit at the time required in Section 2.22(c), or if any US Issuing Bank is required at
any time to return to US Borrower or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other Person any portion of any payment by
US Borrower of any US Reimbursement Obligation in connection with a US Letter of Credit, such US Issuing Bank shall promptly give
notice of same to each US Lender, and such US Issuing Bank shall have the right to require each US Lender to fund its participation
in such US Reimbursement Obligation. Each US Lender (except the US Issuing Bank for the applicable US Letter of Credit to the extent
it is also a US Lender) shall pay to the applicable US Issuing Bank an amount in US Dollars (or, if relating to a US Letter of
Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency, in the Dollar Equivalent thereof) equal to such US Lender’s US Pro Rata Percentage
of such unpaid or returned US Reimbursement Obligation not later than the Business Day it receives notice from such US Issuing
Bank to such effect, if such notice is received before 2:00 P.M., or not later than the following Business Day if such notice is
received after such time. If a US Lender fails to pay timely such amount to any US Issuing Bank, it shall also pay to such US Issuing
Bank interest on such amount accrued from the date payment of such amount was made by such US Issuing Bank to the date of such
payment by the US Lender at a rate per annum equal to the Administrative Agent’s cost of funds, such rate to be applicable
until the second Business Day after such payment by such US Issuing Bank and thereafter at the Alternate Base Rate in effect for
each such day, and only after such payment shall such US Lender be entitled to receive its US Pro Rata Percentage of each payment
received on the relevant US Reimbursement Obligation and of interest paid thereon. The several obligations of the US Lenders to
each US Issuing Bank under this Section 2.22(d) shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and
all circumstances whatsoever and shall not be subject to any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment any US Lender may have
or have had against US Borrower, such US Issuing Bank, and any other US Lender or any other Person whatsoever including, but not
limited to, any defense based on the failure of the demand for payment under the US Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of
such US Letter of Credit or the legality, validity, regularity or enforceability of such US Letter of Credit and including, but
not limited to, those resulting from such issuing bank’s own simple or contributory negligence. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, such obligations shall not be affected by any Default or Event of Default or by any subsequent reduction or termination
of any Commitment of a US Lender, and each payment by a US Lender under this Section 2.22(d) shall be made without
any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.


 






    104


     


    

 


(e)         US
Letter of Credit Amounts and Foreign Currency. (i) Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a US Letter of Credit
at any time shall be deemed to be the stated amount of such US Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided, however, that
with respect to any US Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Application related thereto, provides for one or
more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such US Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum
stated amount of such US Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount
is in effect at such time. For purposes of calculations of amounts payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
including US Reimbursement Obligations and fees and for comparisons, measurements or other determinations of such amounts hereunder
and thereunder, in any case, with respect to US Letters of Credit denominated in any Discretionary Foreign Currency in accordance
with Section 2.22(a)(ii), such amounts shall be converted to the Dollar Equivalent thereof on the Revaluation
Date in accordance with the immediately following sentence. Without in any way limiting the foregoing provisions, all calculations
of Dollar Equivalents shall be made in accordance with the definition of “Dollar Equivalent” and such
calculations shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


 


(i)            US Borrower shall, and shall cause the other US Loan Parties to, make payment relative to any US Obligation with respect
to US Letters of Credit in the applicable Accepted Currency in which the applicable US Letter of Credit is denominated (or, if
relating to a Letter of Credit denominated in a Discretionary Foreign Currency, in the Dollar Equivalent thereof) (the “Agreed
Currency”). If any payment is received on account of any such US Obligation in any currency other than the Agreed
Currency (the “Other Currency”) (whether voluntarily or pursuant to an order or judgment or the enforcement
thereof or the realization of any collateral, if any, or the liquidation of a US Loan Party or otherwise), such payment shall constitute
a discharge of the liability of the US Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in respect of such obligation
only to the extent of the amount of the Agreed Currency which the relevant US Issuing Bank is able to purchase with the amount
of the Other Currency received by it on the Business Day next following such receipt in accordance with its normal banking procedures
in the relevant jurisdiction and applicable law after deducting any costs of exchange. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law, if the amount of the Other Currency received is insufficient to satisfy the obligation in the Agreed Currency in full, then
the US Borrower does hereby agree to indemnify the US Issuing Banks from and against any loss or cost arising out of or in connection
with such deficiency; provided that if the amount of the Agreed Currency so purchased is greater than the amount of the Agreed
Currency due in respect of such liability immediately prior to such judgment or order, voluntary prepayment, realization of collateral,
if any, liquidation of a US Loan Party or otherwise, then the Administrative Agent, the applicable US Issuing Bank or the US Lenders,
as the case may be, agree to return the amount of any excess to US Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto
under applicable law). To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the foregoing indemnity and agreement by US Borrower
shall constitute an obligation separate and independent from all other obligations contained in this Agreement and shall give rise
to a separate and independent cause of action.


 






    105


     


    

 


(f)          Designation of Additional US Issuing Banks. From time to time, US Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent,
designate as additional US Issuing Banks one or more US Lenders, or such US Lenders’ Affiliates, that agree to serve in such
capacity as provided below and are acceptable to the Administrative Agent. The acceptance by a US Lender or such US Lender’s
Affiliate of any appointment as a US Issuing Bank hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement (an “US Issuing Bank
Agreement”), which shall be in a form satisfactory to US Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and shall be executed
by such US Lender or such US Lender’s Affiliate, US Borrower, and the Administrative Agent. From and after the effective
date of such agreement, (i) such US Lender or such US Lender’s Affiliate shall have all the rights and obligations of
a US Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and (ii) references herein and in the other Credit Documents
to the term “US Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to include such US Lender or such US Lender’s Affiliate in its
capacity as a US Issuing Bank. The US Issuing Bank Agreement of any US Issuing Bank may limit the total stated amounts and the
currencies in which such US Issuing Bank will issue Letters of Credit, and any such limitations will, as to such US Issuing Bank,
be deemed to be incorporated in this Agreement.


 


(g)         Replacement
of a US Issuing Bank. A US Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among US Borrower, the Administrative
Agent, the replaced US Issuing Bank, and the successor US Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective,
US Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced US Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.05.
From and after the effective date of any such replacement, the successor US Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations
of a US Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to US Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and references herein
to the term “US Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous US Issuing Bank, as the
context shall require. After the replacement of a US Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced US Issuing Bank shall remain a party
hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of a US Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to US
Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional US Letters of Credit.


 


(h)         US Issuing Bank Reports. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each US Issuing Bank shall report in
writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on or prior to each Business Day on which such US Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews
or extends any US Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the currencies and stated amounts
of the US Letters of Credit issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension (and whether the amounts thereof shall have changed), it being understood that such US Issuing Bank shall
not effect any issuance, renewal, extension or amendment resulting in an increase in the aggregate amount of the US Letters of
Credit issued by it without first obtaining written confirmation from the Administrative Agent that such increase is then permitted
under this Agreement, (ii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any payment under any US Letter of Credit,
the date, currency and amount of such payment, (iii) on any Business Day on which US Borrower fails to reimburse any payment
under any US Letter of Credit required to be reimbursed to such US Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure, the currency
and amount of such payment, and (iv) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably
request as to the US Letters of Credit issued by such US Issuing Bank.


 






    106


     


    

 


(i)           Cash
Collateralization. If any US Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the US Borrower receives
notice from the Administrative Agent or the US Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the US Loans has been accelerated, US
Lenders with US L/C Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total US L/C Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral
pursuant to this paragraph, the US Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative
Agent and for the benefit of the US Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the aggregate US L/C Exposure as of such date plus any
accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective
immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence
of any US Event of Default with respect to the US Borrower described in Section 12.01(d). Such deposit shall
be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the US Borrower under
this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal,
over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option
and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the US Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear
interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied
by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable US Issuing Bank for US Reimbursement Obligations for which it has not
been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the
US Borrower for the US L/C Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the US Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the
consent of US Lenders with US L/C Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total US L/C Exposure), be applied to satisfy
other US Obligations. If the US Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence
of a US Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the US Borrower within three
Business Days after all US Events of Default have been cured or waived.


 


Section 2.23      
Canadian Letters of Credit.


 


(a)         General.
Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, including, without limitation, the conditions precedent in Section 6.02,
the limitations set forth in the definition of the term “Canadian Issuing Bank” and any applicable requirements
of Section 2.21, the Canadian Issuing Bank agrees to issue from time to time prior to the termination of the Availability
Period, at the request of Canadian Borrower, one or more Canadian Letters of Credit for Canadian Borrower’s account in any
Accepted Currency in an aggregate undrawn face amount for all Canadian Letters of Credit at any time outstanding not to exceed
the applicable Letters of Credit Maximum Amount; provided, that the Canadian Issuing Bank shall not issue, increase or
extend a Canadian Letter of Credit pursuant to this Section 2.23, (x) if, immediately after the issuance,
increase or extension thereof, the outstanding aggregate Canadian Revolving Exposures would thereby exceed the Canadian Revolving
Commitments, (y) if, immediately after the issuance, increase or extension thereof, the aggregate undrawn face amount of
all Canadian Letters of Credit then outstanding would at any time thereafter (giving effect to the respective scheduled expiration
dates thereof and any automatic extensions provided therein) exceed the applicable Letters of Credit Maximum Amount, or (z) if
the issuance of such Canadian Letter of Credit would violate any legal or regulatory restriction then applicable to the Canadian
Issuing Bank or the Canadian Lender as notified by either of them to the Canadian Borrower before the date of issuance of such
Canadian Letter of Credit. If the Canadian Lender notifies the Canadian Issuing Bank that any conditions precedent set forth in
Section 6.02 have not been satisfied and instructs the Canadian Issuing Bank to suspend the issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension of Canadian Letters of Credit, the Canadian Issuing Bank shall not issue, amend, renew or extend any Canadian
Letter of Credit without the consent of the Canadian Lender until such notice is withdrawn. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
set forth in this Agreement, a Canadian Letter of Credit issued hereunder may contain a statement to the effect that such Canadian
Letter of Credit is issued for the account of any Canadian Guarantor; provided, that notwithstanding such statement, Canadian
Borrower shall be the actual account party for all purposes of this Agreement for such Canadian Letter of Credit and such statement
shall not affect Canadian Borrower’s Canadian Reimbursement Obligations hereunder with respect to such Canadian Letter of
Credit. For the avoidance of doubt, the Canadian L/C Obligations shall in no event constitute Canadian Secured Loans.


 






    107


     


    

 


(b)        
Issuance Procedure. (i) To request that the Canadian Issuing Bank issue a Canadian Letter of Credit, Canadian Borrower
shall deliver to the Canadian Issuing Bank (with a duplicate copy to an operations employee of the Canadian Issuing Bank as designated
by such Issuing Bank from time to time) a duly executed Issuance Request, together with a duly executed Application (unless previously
executed and delivered by Canadian Borrower) for the relevant Canadian Letter of Credit, or such other computerized issuance or
application procedure, instituted from time to time by the Canadian Issuing Bank and agreed to by Canadian Borrower, completed
to the reasonable satisfaction of the Canadian Issuing Bank, and such other information as the Canadian Issuing Bank may reasonably
request. In the event of any irreconcilable difference or inconsistency between this Agreement and any Application, the provisions
of this Agreement shall govern. Upon receipt of a properly completed and executed Issuance Request and Application (as required)
and any other reasonably requested information at least three (3) Business Days prior to any requested issuance date, the
Canadian Issuing Bank will process such Issuance Request in accordance with its customary procedures and, subject to Canadian Borrower’s
compliance with any applicable requirements of Section 2.21, issue the requested Canadian Letter of Credit on the
requested issuance date. Canadian Borrower may cancel any requested issuance of a Canadian Letter of Credit prior to the issuance
thereof. The Canadian Issuing Bank will notify the Canadian Lender of the amount, currency, and expiration date of each Canadian
Letter of Credit it issues promptly upon issuance thereof. Each Canadian Letter of Credit shall have an initial expiration date
(subject to renewals including auto-renewals) not in excess of one (1) year from the date of any issue and, in any event, subject
to clause (b)(ii) below, each Canadian Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date no later than five
(5) Business Days before the Maturity Date. If the Canadian Issuing Bank issues any Canadian Letters of Credit with
expiration dates that automatically extend unless the Canadian Issuing Bank gives notice that the expiration date will not so extend,
the Canadian Issuing Bank (A) may give such notice of non-renewal before the time necessary to prevent such automatic extension
if a Canadian Default or Canadian Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (B) will give such notice of non-renewal
before the time necessary to prevent such automatic extension if (and will not give such notice of non-renewal before such time
unless) before such required notice date (1) the expiration date of such Canadian Letter of Credit if so extended would be
later than five (5) Business Days before the Maturity Date, (2) the Maturity Date shall have occurred, or (3) the
Canadian Issuing Bank is so directed by Canadian Borrower.


 


(i)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with the consent of the Canadian Issuing Bank, any Canadian Letter of Credit
issued by the Canadian Issuing Bank may have an expiration date later than five (5) Business Days before the Maturity Date
to any such later date as may be agreed by the Canadian Issuing Bank, if Canadian Borrower shall provide or cause to be provided,
no later than the Maturity Date  Cash Collateral or a back-to-back letter of credit from a bank or financial institution whose
short-term unsecured debt rating is rated A-3 (or equivalent) or above from either S&P or Moody’s (or such other bank
or financial institution satisfactory to the Canadian Issuing Bank) and which provides that the Canadian Issuing Bank may make
a drawing thereunder in the event that the Canadian Issuing Bank pays a drawing under such Canadian Letter of Credit, in each case,
in an amount equal to not less than 105% of the undrawn face amount of such Letter of Credit, or other arrangements satisfactory
to the Canadian Issuing Bank in its sole discretion shall have been made with respect to such Canadian Letter of Credit.


 


(ii)           The
Canadian Issuing Bank agrees to issue amendments to any Canadian Letter of Credit increasing its amount, or extending its expiration
date, at the request of Canadian Borrower, subject to the conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.02 and
the other terms and conditions of this Section 2.23.


 


(c)         Canadian
Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations. Canadian Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to reimburse the
Canadian Issuing Bank in the applicable Accepted Currency in which the applicable Canadian Letter of Credit is denominated for
each payment or disbursement made by the Canadian Issuing Bank to settle its obligations under any draft drawn or other payment
made under a Canadian Letter of Credit (a “Canadian Reimbursement Obligation”) within two (2) Business
Days from when Canadian Borrower has been notified in writing by the Canadian Issuing Bank that such draft is paid or other payment
is made with either funds not borrowed hereunder or with a Borrowing made pursuant to Section 2.03 and the
other terms and conditions contained in this Agreement. Canadian Borrower’s Canadian Reimbursement Obligation shall apply
to all Canadian Letters of Credit issued hereunder, regardless of whether the obligations supported by such Canadian Letters of
Credit are those of Canadian Borrower, any Guarantor, or any other Person. The Canadian Reimbursement Obligation shall bear interest
(which Canadian Borrower hereby promises to pay) from and after the date such draft is paid or other payment is made until (but
excluding the date) the Canadian Reimbursement Obligation is paid at the lesser of (x) the Highest Lawful Rate, or (y) the
Canadian US$-Denominated Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for the applicable Loans then in effect, in each case so long as
the Canadian Reimbursement Obligation shall not be past due, and thereafter at the default rate per annum as set forth in Section 2.06,
whether or not the Maturity Date shall have occurred. If any such payment or disbursement is reimbursed to the Canadian Issuing
Bank on the date such payment or disbursement is made by the Canadian Issuing Bank, interest shall be paid to the Canadian Issuing
Bank on the reimbursed amount for one (1) day. The Canadian Issuing Bank shall give Canadian Borrower notice of any drawing
on a Canadian Letter of Credit issued by it within one (1) Business Day after such drawing is paid.


 






    108


     


    

 


(i)            Canadian
Borrower agrees for the benefit of the Canadian Issuing Bank and the Canadian Lender that, notwithstanding any provision of any
Application, the obligations of Canadian Borrower under this Section 2.23(c) and each required Application
shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
and each required Application under all circumstances whatsoever (other than the defense of payment in accordance with this Agreement),
including, without limitation, the following circumstances (subject in all cases to the defense of payment in accordance with
this Agreement):


 


(A)          any
lack of validity or enforceability of any of the Canadian L/C Documents;


 


(B)           any
amendment or waiver of or any consent to depart from all or any of the provisions of any of the Canadian L/C Documents;


 


(C)           the
existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right Canadian Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary of a Canadian
Letter of Credit (or any person for whom a beneficiary may be acting), the Canadian Issuing Bank, the Canadian Lender or any other
Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, another Canadian L/C Document or any unrelated transaction;


 


(D)           any statement or any other document presented under a Canadian 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;


 


(E)            payment by the Canadian Issuing Bank under a Canadian Letter of Credit against presentation to the Canadian Issuing Bank
of a draft or certificate that does not comply with the terms of the Canadian Letter of Credit; or


 


(F)           any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Canadian Issuing Bank, the Canadian Lender or any other Person
or any other event or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.23(c), constitute
a legal or equitable discharge of Canadian Borrower’s obligations hereunder, under an Issuance Request or under an Application;
provided, however, the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Canadian Issuing Bank or the Canadian Lender from
liability to Canadian Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (but excluding consequential damages, which are hereby waived
to the extent not prohibited by applicable law) suffered by Canadian Borrower that are caused by the Canadian Issuing Bank’s
or Canadian Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.


 






    109


     


    

 


(d)         Canadian Letter of Credit Amounts. (i) Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Canadian Letter of
Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the stated amount of such Canadian Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided,
however, that with respect to any Canadian Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Application related thereto,
provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Canadian Letter of Credit shall be
deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Canadian Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or
not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time. For purposes of calculating Canadian L/C Exposure with respect to Canadian
Letters of Credit denominated in any Foreign Currency, such amounts shall be converted to the Dollar Equivalent thereof on each
Revaluation Date.


 


(i)            Canadian
Borrower shall, and shall cause the other Canadian Loan Parties to, make payment relative to any Canadian Obligation with respect
to Canadian Letters of Credit in the applicable Accepted Currency in which the applicable Canadian Letter of Credit is denominated
(the “Agreed Canadian L/C Currency”). If any payment is received on account of any such Canadian Obligation
in any currency other than the Agreed Canadian L/C Currency (the “Other Canadian L/C Currency”) (whether
voluntarily or pursuant to an order or judgment or the enforcement thereof or the realization of any collateral, if any, or the
liquidation of a Canadian Loan Party or otherwise), such payment shall constitute a discharge of the liability of the Canadian
Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in respect of such obligation only to the extent of the amount of the
Agreed Canadian L/C Currency which the Canadian Issuing Bank is able to purchase with the amount of the Other Canadian L/C Currency
received by it on the Business Day next following such receipt in accordance with its normal banking procedures in the relevant
jurisdiction and applicable law after deducting any costs of exchange. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, if the
amount of the Other Canadian L/C Currency received is insufficient to satisfy the obligation in the Agreed Canadian L/C Currency
in full, then the Canadian Borrower does hereby agree to indemnify the Canadian Issuing Bank and the Canadian Lender from and
against any loss or cost arising out of or in connection with such deficiency; provided that if the amount of the Agreed Canadian
L/C Currency so purchased is greater than the amount of the Agreed Canadian L/C Currency due in respect of such liability immediately
prior to such judgment or order, voluntary prepayment, realization of collateral, if any, liquidation of a Canadian Loan Party
or otherwise, then the Canadian Lender or the Canadian Issuing Bank, as the case may be, agree to return the amount of any excess
to Canadian Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law). To the fullest extent permitted
by applicable law, the foregoing indemnity and agreement by Canadian Borrower shall constitute an obligation separate and independent
from all other obligations contained in this Agreement and shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action.


 


(e)        
[Reserved].


 






    110


     


    

 


(f)         
Cash Collateralization. If any Canadian Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that
the Canadian Borrower receives notice from the Canadian Issuing Bank demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this
paragraph, the Canadian Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Canadian Issuing Bank in the name of the Canadian Issuing
Bank an amount in cash equal to the aggregate Canadian L/C Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon;
provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall
become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Canadian Event of Default
with respect to the Canadian Borrower described in Section 12.02(g) or Section 12.02(h). Such deposit
shall be held by the Canadian Issuing Bank as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Canadian Borrower
under this Agreement. The Canadian Issuing Bank shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal,
over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option
and sole discretion of the Canadian Issuing Bank and at the Canadian Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not
bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall
be applied by the Canadian Issuing Bank to reimburse the Canadian Issuing Bank for Canadian Reimbursement Obligations for which
it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations
of the Canadian Borrower for the Canadian L/C Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Canadian Loans has been accelerated,
be applied to satisfy other Canadian Obligations. If the Canadian Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral
hereunder as a result of the occurrence of a Canadian Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall
be returned to the Canadian Borrower within three Business Days after all Canadian Events of Default have been cured or waived.


 


(g)        
Additional Canadian Letter of Credit Provisions 


 


(i)            The Canadian Borrower shall indemnify and save harmless the Canadian Lender Parties against all claims, losses, costs, expenses
or damages to the Canadian Lender Parties arising out of or in connection with any Canadian Letter of Credit, the issuance thereof,
any payment thereunder or any action taken by the Canadian Lender Parties or any other Person in connection therewith, including
all costs relating to any legal process or proceeding instituted by any party restraining or seeking to restrain the issuer of
a Canadian Letter of Credit or the Canadian Lender Parties from accepting or paying any draft or any amount under any such Canadian
Letter of Credit, except as a result of any Canadian Lender Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Canadian
Borrower also agrees that the Canadian Lender Parties shall have no liability to it for any reason in respect of or in connection
with any Canadian Letter of Credit, the issuance thereof, any payment thereunder or any other action taken by the Canadian Lender
Parties, the Administrative Agent or any other Person in connection therewith, except as a result of the Canadian Lender Party’s
or the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.


 


(ii)           The Canadian Borrower hereby acknowledges and confirms to the Canadian Lender Parties that the Canadian Issuing Bank shall
not be obliged to make any inquiry or investigation as to the right of any beneficiary, as between such beneficiary and the Canadian
Borrower, to make any claim or draft or request any payment under a Canadian Letter of Credit and payment pursuant to a Canadian
Letter of Credit shall not be withheld by reason of any matters in dispute between the beneficiary thereof and the Canadian Borrower.
The sole obligation of the Canadian Issuing Bank with respect to Canadian Letters of Credit is to cause to be paid a draft drawn
or purporting to be drawn in accordance with the terms of the applicable Canadian Letter of Credit and for such purpose the Canadian
Issuing Bank is only obliged to determine that the draft substantially complies with the terms and conditions of the relevant Canadian
Letter of Credit.


 






    111


     


    

 


(iii)          The
Canadian Issuing Bank and other Canadian Lender Parties shall not have any responsibility or liability for or any duty to inquire
into the form, sufficiency (other than to the extent provided in the preceding paragraph and in Section 2.23(c)),
authorization, execution, signature, endorsement, correctness (other than to the extent provided in the preceding paragraph and
in Section 2.23(c)), genuineness or legal effect of any draft, certificate or other document presented to it pursuant
to a Canadian Letter of Credit and the Canadian Borrower unconditionally assumes all risks with respect to the same. The Canadian
Borrower agrees that it assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of the beneficiary of any Canadian Letter of Credit with respect
to the use by such beneficiary of the relevant Canadian Letter of Credit. The Canadian Borrower further agrees that the Canadian
Issuing Bank and each other Canadian Lender Party and any of its officers, directors or correspondents will not assume liability
for, or be responsible for:


 


(a)         the
validity, correctness, genuineness or legal effect of any document or instrument relating to any Canadian Letter of Credit, even
if such document or instrument should in fact prove to be in any respect invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged;


 


(b)         the
failure of any document or instrument to bear any reference or adequate reference to any Canadian Letter of Credit;


 


(c)         any failure to note the amount of any draft on any Canadian Letter of Credit or on any related document or instrument;
any failure of the beneficiary of any Canadian Letter of Credit to meet the obligations of such beneficiary to the Canadian Borrower
or any other Person;


 


(d)         any
errors, inaccuracies, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, directions or correspondence
by mail, facsimile or otherwise, whether or not they are in cipher;


 


(e)         any
inaccuracies in the translation of any messages, directions or correspondence or for errors in the interpretation of any technical
terms; or


 


(f)          any failure by the Canadian Issuing Bank or any other Canadian Lender Party to make payment under any Canadian Letter
of Credit as a result of any law, control or restriction rightfully or wrongfully exercised or imposed by any domestic or foreign
court or government or Governmental Authority or as a result of any other cause beyond the control of the Canadian Issuing Bank
or any other Canadian Lender Party or its officers, directors or correspondents;


 


(iv)                          Any
action, inaction or omission taken or suffered by the Canadian Issuing Bank or any other Canadian Lender Party or by any of their
correspondents under or in connection with a Canadian Letter of Credit or any draft made thereunder, if in good faith and in conformity
with foreign or domestic laws, regulation or customs applicable thereto shall be binding upon the Canadian Borrower and shall
not place the Canadian Issuing Bank or any other Canadian Lender Party or any of its correspondents under any resulting liability
to the Canadian Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Canadian Issuing Bank or any other Canadian Lender
Party and its correspondents may receive, accept or pay as complying with the terms of a Canadian Letter of Credit, any draft
thereunder, otherwise in order which may be signed by, or issued to, the administrator or any executor of, or the trustee in bankruptcy
of, or the receiver for any property of, or any person or entity acting as a representative or in the place of, such beneficiary
or its successors and assigns. The Canadian Borrower covenants that it will not take any steps, issue any instructions to the
Canadian Issuing Bank or any other Canadian Lender Party or any of its correspondents or institute any proceedings intended to
derogate from the right or ability of the Canadian Issuing Bank or any other Canadian Lender Party or its correspondents to honour
and pay any Canadian Letter of Credit or any drafts in connection therewith.


 


(v)                           On the Maturity Date, the Canadian Borrower shall deposit with the Canadian Issuing Bank cash collateral in accordance with
Section 2.23(f) in an amount equal to the maximum amount available to be drawn under any unexpired Canadian Letter of Credit which
becomes the subject of any order, judgment, injunction or other such determination by a Governmental Authority (an “Order”),
or any petition, proceeding or other application for any Order by the Canadian Borrower or any other party extending the Canadian
Issuing Bank’s or the Canadian Lender’s liability under such Canadian Letter of Credit beyond the Maturity Date.


 


(vi)                          The Canadian Issuing Bank shall release to the Canadian Borrower any amount remaining in the cash collateral accounts after
applying the amounts necessary to discharge the Canadian L/C Obligations relating to such Canadian Letter of Credit, upon the later
of:


 


(a)         the
date on which any final and non-appealable order, judgment or other determination has been rendered or issued either terminating
any applicable Order or permanently enjoining the Canadian Issuing Bank and the Canadian Lender from paying under such Canadian
Letter of Credit;


 


(b)         the earlier of:


 


(i)          the
date on which either the original counterpart of such Canadian Letter of Credit is returned to the Canadian Issuing Bank for cancellation
or the Canadian Issuing Bank is released by the beneficiary thereof from any other obligation in respect of such Canadian Letter
of Credit; and


 


(ii)         the
expiry of such Canadian Letter of Credit; and


 


(c)         if a Canadian Event of Default has occurred, the payment and satisfaction of the Canadian L/C Exposure and the cancellation
or termination of the Canadian Loans.


 






    112


     


    

 



 


(vii)         Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, and Canadian L/C Documents or any other document related thereto, the Canadian Lender Parties
shall not be liable to the Canadian Borrower for any consequential, indirect, punitive or exemplary damages with respect to action
taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in respect of any Canadian Letter of Credit.


 


(viii)         ISP
shall in all respects apply to each Canadian Letter of Credit unless expressly provided to the contrary therein and shall be deemed
for such purpose to be a part of this Agreement as if fully incorporated herein. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency
between ISP and the governing law of this Agreement as it relates to Canadian Letters of Credit, ISP shall, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, prevail to the extent necessary to remove the conflict or inconsistency.


 


(ix)         Nothing
in this Section 2.23(g) shall be construed to excuse the Canadian Issuing Bank from liability to the Canadian Borrower to the
extent of any direct damages (but excluding consequential damages, which are hereby waived to the extent not prohibited by applicable
law) suffered by Canadian Borrower that are caused by the Canadian Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.


 


Section 2.24      
Takeover Notification.


 


The Canadian Lender
shall have no obligation to make Canadian Loans for the purpose of enabling Canadian Borrower (either directly or indirectly, through
any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise) to acquire shares of a publicly traded corporation or other publicly traded business vehicles,
the acquisition of which requires disclosure pursuant to the requirements of applicable securities law or any securities commission
or exchange or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the sale or the issuance of securities of Canadian Borrower
or such publicly traded corporation or other publicly traded business vehicles, if the Canadian Lender determines (in its sole
discretion having regard to such considerations as it deems appropriate) that the utilization of Canadian Loans for such purpose
would result in it being in a conflict of interest. At least five Banking Days prior to the giving of any notice pursuant to Section 2.03
requesting Canadian Loans intended to be utilized for such purpose, Canadian Borrower shall provide, in strict confidence, details
of such proposed acquisition (including the name of such publicly traded corporation) to the Canadian Lender so that the Canadian
Lender can make the determination referred to above. The Canadian Lender shall advise Canadian Borrower whether such conflict of
interest exists within three Banking Days after receipt from Canadian Borrower of such details. Failure by the Canadian Lender
to so advise Canadian Borrower of a conflict shall be deemed to be a determination that a conflict exists for the Canadian Lender.


 


Section 2.25      
Extension of Maturity Date.


 


(a)         Request
for Extension. Not less than 30 days nor more than 90 days prior to the Maturity Date (including any extensions thereof pursuant
hereto), the Borrowers may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly, but in any event within three
(3) Business Days after receipt of such notice, forward such notice to the US Lenders) and the Canadian Lender, request an
extension of the Maturity Date for an additional one-year period; provided that no more than two (2) such one-year
extensions shall be permitted hereunder. Prior to sending such notice to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lender, the
Borrowers shall consult therewith regarding the time period within which each Lender Party would be requested to respond (which
shall in no event be less than ten (10) Business Days after the date of delivery of such notice to the Lender Parties), and such
notice shall set forth such response deadline. No Lender is committed hereby to agree to any such extension of the Maturity Date.


 






    113


     


    

 


(b)         Lender
Party Elections to Extend; Payments to Declining Lender Parties. Each Lender Party that agrees, in its sole discretion, to
extend its Revolving Commitment (an “Extending Lender”) shall notify the Administrative Agent within
such time period of its agreement to extend its Revolving Commitment. The Revolving Commitment of any Lending Party that declines,
or fails to respond to, the Borrowers’ request for an extension of the Maturity Date within such time period (a “Declining
Lender”), shall be terminated on the Maturity Date then in effect for such Lending Party (without regard to any
extension by other Lending Parties) and on such date the aggregate Revolving Commitments shall be reduced by the total Revolving
Commitments of all Declining Lenders expiring on the Maturity Date (without giving effect to the extension request) except to
the extent one or more lenders (including other Lending Parties) shall have agreed to assume such Revolving Commitments hereunder.
The Administrative Agent shall notify promptly the Borrowers and each Lending Party of the Lending Parties’ responses to
each request made hereunder. The US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, shall pay in full the unpaid principal amount
of all Revolving Borrowings owing to each Declining Lender, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all fees
accrued and unpaid under this Agreement, and all other amounts due to such Declining Lender under this Agreement, including any
breakage fees or costs that are payable pursuant to Section 2.16, on the Maturity Date (without giving effect
to the extension request) or on the earlier replacement of such Declining Lender.


 


(c)         Conditions
to Extension of Maturity Date. Any extension of the Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.25 shall be
subject to the satisfaction on or prior to the Extension Effective Date of the following conditions:


 


(i)         The
Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lender shall have received documents of the type required to be delivered by the US Loan
Parties and Canadian Borrower pursuant to Section 1.05(a)(ii), Section 1.05(a)(iv), and Section 1.05(c) of Amendment
No. 1, which, in each case, shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and shall relate to the extension
of the Maturity Date then being requested; and


 


(ii)         The
Borrowers shall have paid to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Extending Lender, an extension fee (if any) in
an amount to be agreed.


 


(d)         Effective
Date and Allocations. If the Maturity Date is extended in accordance with this Section 2.25, the Administrative
Agent, the Canadian Lender (to the extent the Canadian Lender is not a Declining Lender) and the Borrowers shall determine the
effective date of the extension (the “Extension Effective Date”), and upon such effectiveness,  the
Administrative Agent shall record in the register any replacement lender’s information as provided pursuant to an Administrative
Questionnaire that shall be executed and delivered by such replacement lender to the Administrative Agent on or before such Extension
Effective Date,  Schedule I attached hereto shall be amended and restated so as to set forth in its entirety
all Lending Parties (including any replacement lenders) that will be Lending Parties hereunder after giving effect to such extension
and the Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Lender Party (including each replacement lender) a copy of such amended
and restated Schedule I which reflects the Commitments of the Lenders, and applicable Maturity Dates (if more
than one) after giving effect to the changes effected on the Extension Effective Date,  each replacement lender that complies
with the provision of this Section 2.25 shall be a “Lending Party” for all purposes under this
Agreement, and  all calculations and payments of interest on the Revolving Borrowings shall take into account the actual
Revolving Commitments of each Lender Party and the principal amount outstanding of each Revolving Borrowing made by such Lender
Party during the relevant period of time.


 






    114


     


    

 


Section 2.26      
Treatment of Secured Loans.


 


Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the classification of any Loan as a Secured Loan or Unsecured Loan is solely
for the purposes of calculating the amount of Obligations secured by the Liens granted under the US Security Documents and the
Canadian Security Documents, as applicable, and any amounts received in respect of the US Collateral or the Canadian Collateral,
as the case may be, shall in any event be applied in accordance with Section 12.04.

the Lenders by or on behalf of US Borrower or Holdings in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, when taken as a
whole and considered together with disclosures made in any other Loan Documents or filings by any US Loan Party with the SEC, contains
any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein

that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by the US Loan Parties to be reasonable at the
time so prepared (it being recognized that projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results
may be materially different from the projected results).

Subject to the applicable limitations set forth in the US Security Documents, the US Loan Parties will execute any and all

pursuant to this Agreement and the US Security Documents shall be subject to exceptions and limitations set forth in the US Security

In addition, upon 45 days’ (or such shorter period of time permitted by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion)
prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, Holdings and its Subsidiaries shall be permitted add any Marketed Rig that is
not a Canadian Collateral Rig as a US Collateral Rig, so long as, in each case, immediately after giving effect thereto, the US
Collateral Rig Value is not less than the US Collateral Coverage Threshold on a pro forma basis.


 


(iv)            
In the event any Marketed Rig is or is to become a US Collateral Rig in accordance with this Section 7.10(c),
the US Borrower shall, or shall cause the applicable US Loan Party, to update Schedule III to the US Security Agreement to include
such Marketed Rig.

the value of such US Collateral Rig.


 






    136


     


    

 


(b)        
Holdings and its Subsidiaries will cause each US Collateral Rig Owner or US Collateral Rig Operator in accordance herewith
to promptly pay and discharge all tolls, dues, taxes, assessments, governmental charges, fines, penalties, debts, damages and liabilities

Collateral Liens) on, or claims enforceable against, such US Collateral Rig other than any of the foregoing being contested in
good faith and diligently by appropriate proceedings, and, in the event of arrest of any US Collateral Rig pursuant to legal process,
or in the event of its detention in exercise or purported exercise of any such Lien or claim as aforesaid, procure, if reasonably

to ensure that US Collateral Rigs are subject to a safety management system which complies with applicable regulatory systems,

The obligations of
each Guarantor under Section 11.01 shall constitute a guaranty of payment (and not of collection) and to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, irrespective of the value,
genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations of any Borrower under this Agreement, the US
Notes, if any, Guaranteed Hedge Agreements, if any, Guaranteed Cash Management Agreements, if any, or any other agreement or instrument
referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed

at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, the time for any performance of or compliance with any
of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;


 






    155

any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or the US Notes, if any, or any other agreement or
instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;


 


(c)              
the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be amended

(d)              
any impossibility, impracticability, frustration of purpose, illegality, force majeure or act of government;


 


(e)              
the bankruptcy, winding-up, liquidation, dissolution, moratorium, readjustment of debt or insolvency of any Loan Party or
any other person, including any discharge or bar against collection of any of the Obligations, or the amalgamation of or any change
in the existence, structure, name, status, function, control, constitution or ownership of any Loan Party, Lender or any other
person;


 


(f)               
any lack or limitation of power, incapacity or disability on the part of any Loan Party or of the directors, partners or
agents thereof or any other irregularity, defect or informality on the part of any Loan Party in its obligations to the applicable
Lenders;

holder of a security interest therein or thereon, being invalidated, voided, declared fraudulent or preferential or otherwise set
aside, or by reason of any impairment of any right or recourse to collateral.


 


The foregoing provisions
apply and the foregoing waivers, to the extent permitted under applicable law, shall be effective even if the effect of any action
or failure to take action by the Beneficiaries is to destroy or diminish any Guarantor’s subrogation rights, any Guarantor’s
right to proceed against a Borrower for reimbursement, any Guarantor’s right to recover contribution from any other guarantor
or any other right or remedy of any such Guarantor.


 






    156


     


    

 


Each Guarantor hereby
expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Beneficiary
exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Borrower under this Agreement or the US Notes, if any, the Guaranteed
Hedge Agreements, if any, the Guaranteed Cash Management Agreements, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein
or therein, or against any other person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each
Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Beneficiary upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee, and the
Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance
upon this Guarantee, and all dealings between any Borrower and the Beneficiaries shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have

and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations at any
time or from time to time held by Beneficiaries, and the obligations and liabilities of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be conditioned
or contingent upon the pursuit by the Beneficiaries or any other person at any time of any right or remedy against any Borrower
or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against
any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. This Guarantee shall remain in full force
and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon each Guarantor and the successors and assigns
thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of (x) with respect to the US Guaranteed Obligations, the US Lender Parties, and their
respective successors and permitted assigns, (y) with respect to the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations, the Canadian Lender

or Guaranteed Hedge Obligations, as applicable, and  with respect to the Canadian Obligations, if and to the extent that for
any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Canadian Loan Party in respect of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded

and shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in
Section 11.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against any US Loan Party or any other obligor of any of
the Guaranteed Hedge Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Hedge Obligations.

Remedies.


 


Each Guarantor agrees
that, as between such Guarantor and the Lenders, the obligations of each Borrower under this Agreement and the US Notes, if any,
may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 12.03 (and shall be deemed to have become
automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 12.03) for purposes of Section 11.01,
notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically
due and payable) as against such Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have
become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by such Borrower) shall forthwith become
due and payable by each Guarantor for purposes of Section 11.01.

or the US Borrower under Section 11.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or
unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 11.01,
then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by any
Loan Party or any other person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not

Section 12.03  
Acceleration; Remedies.


 


(a)              
Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a US Event of Default (other than an event described in Section 12.01(d))
then, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the US Required Lenders shall, by notice to US Borrower, take either
or both of the following actions, without prejudice to the rights of the Administrative Agent or any US Lender to enforce its claims
against any US Loan Party, at the same or different times:  terminate forthwith the US Commitments and  declare the US
Loans then outstanding to be forthwith due and payable in whole or in part, whereupon the principal of the US Loans so declared
to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other US Obligations of US Borrower
accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall become forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest
or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each US Loan Party, anything contained herein or in
any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding; and in any event, with respect to an event described in Section 12.01(d),
the US Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the US Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest
thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other US Obligations of US Borrower accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document,
shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which
are hereby expressly waived by each US Loan Party, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.
Notwithstanding the fact that enforcement powers reside primarily with the Administrative Agent and each US Lender has, to the
extent permitted by any Requirement of Law, a separate right of payment and shall be considered a separate “creditor”
holding a separate “claim” within the meaning of Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Debtor Relief
Law. In addition to the rights and remedies described above, occurrence and during the continuation of a US Event of Default, the
Administrative Agent (including in its capacity as US Collateral Agent under the US Security Documents) and the US Lenders will
have all other rights and remedies available under the other Loan Documents and at law and equity.


 






    164


     


    

 


(b)              
Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Canadian Event of Default:  the entire principal amount of all
Canadian Loans then outstanding from Canadian Borrower and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon;  an amount equal to the
face amount at maturity of all Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances issued by Canadian Borrower which are unmatured and  all
other Canadian Obligations outstanding hereunder, shall, in each case, at the option of the Canadian Lender become immediately
due and payable upon written notice to that effect from the Canadian Lender to Canadian Borrower, all without any other notice
and without presentment, protest, demand, notice of dishonor or any other demand whatsoever (all of which are hereby expressly
waived by Canadian Borrower); provided, however, that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 12.02(g)
or Section 12.02(h) all of such indebtedness, liabilities and other Canadian Obligations specified in the immediately
preceding subclauses (i) through (iii), inclusive, above shall automatically become due and
payable, in each case without any requirement that notice be given to Canadian Borrower and without any further act of the Canadian
Lender whatsoever. In any such event and if Canadian Borrower does not immediately pay all such amounts upon receipt of such notice
or upon such automatic acceleration, the Canadian Lender may, in its discretion, exercise any right or recourse and/or proceed
by any action, suit, remedy or proceeding against Canadian Borrower authorized or permitted by law for the recovery of all the
indebtedness and liabilities of Canadian Borrower to the Canadian Lender and proceed to exercise any and all rights hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents to which it is a party and no such remedy for the enforcement of the rights of the Canadian Lender
shall be exclusive of or dependent on any other remedy but any one or more of such remedies may from time to time be exercised
independently or in combination. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Canadian Event of Default, the Canadian Lender
may (in its sole discretion) convert, at the Equivalent Amount, if applicable, a Canadian US$-Denominated Base Rate Loan or Canadian
US$ Libor Loan owing by Canadian Borrower, to a Canadian Prime Rate Loan.


 


Section 12.04  
Allocation of Payments After Event of Default.


 


Notwithstanding any
other provisions of this Agreement, but subject to Section 2.21(d), after the occurrence of an Event of Default and
the exercise of remedies by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, the US Lenders or the Canadian Lender, as applicable, pursuant
to Section 12.03 (or after the applicable Commitments shall automatically terminate and the applicable Loans
(with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts under the Loan Documents shall automatically become due and payable in accordance
with the terms of such Section), all amounts collected or received:


 






    165


     


    

 


(a)              
by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on account of amounts outstanding under any of the Loan Documents,
in each case, that constitute US Obligations, shall be paid over or delivered to the Administrative Agent to be distributed as
follows:


 


(i)                
First, to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses or fees, including compensation to the Administrative
Agent and its agents and counsel, and all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection
with the enforcement of rights hereunder and all amounts for which the Administrative Agent is entitled to indemnification pursuant
to the provisions of any Loan Document, together with interest on each such amount at the highest rate then in effect under this
Agreement from and after the date such amount is due, owing or unpaid until paid in full;


 


(ii)             
Second, to the payment of all other reasonable costs and expenses, including compensation to the other Beneficiaries
(other than the Canadian Lender and any Canadian Issuing Bank) and their agents and counsel and all costs, liabilities and advances
made or incurred by such other Beneficiaries, pro rata, in connection with the enforcement of rights hereunder, together
with interest on each such amount at the highest rate then in effect under this Agreement from and after the date such amount is
due, owing or unpaid until paid in full;


 


(iii)           
Third, without duplication of amounts applied pursuant to the immediately preceding subclauses (i)
and (ii) above, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash, pro rata, of accrued and unpaid interest
on the US Loans or the US Reimbursement Obligations to the date of the application of such amounts, until all such accrued and
unpaid interest has been paid in full;


 


(iv)            
Fourth, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash, pro rata, of principal amount of each of the US Loans
any premium thereon, the amount of the outstanding US Reimbursement Obligations (reserving Cash Collateral for all undrawn face
amounts of any outstanding US Letters of Credit (if Section 2.22(i) has not previously been complied with)) and to
pay obligations owing under Guaranteed Hedge Agreements and Guaranteed Cash Management Agreements. In the event that any US Letters
of Credit, or any portions thereof, expire without being drawn, any Cash Collateral therefor shall not be distributed by the Administrative
Agent until the principal amount of all US Loans and US Reimbursement Obligations have been paid in full;


 


(v)              
Fifth, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash, pro rata, of any other outstanding US Obligations then
due and payable, until all such US Obligations have been paid in full; and


 


(vi)            
Sixth, the balance, if any, to the person lawfully entitled thereto (including the applicable Loan Party or its successors
or assigns) or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct;


 






    166


     


    

 


provided, that  US Obligations arising
under Guaranteed Cash Management Agreements and Guaranteed Hedge Agreements shall be excluded from the application described above
if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative
Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be and  amounts received from the
US Borrower or any US Guarantor that is not an “eligible contract participant” under the Commodity Exchange Act shall
not be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations (it being understood, that in the event that any amount is applied to US Obligations
other than Excluded Swap Obligations as a result of this clause, the Administrative Agent shall make such adjustments as it determines
are appropriate to distributions pursuant to clause fourth above from amounts received from “eligible contract participants”
under the Commodity Exchange Act to ensure, as nearly as possible, that the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to US
Obligations described in clause fourth above by the holders of any Excluded Swap Obligations are the same as the proportional
aggregate recoveries with respect to other US Obligations pursuant to clause fourth above).; provided, further, that in the event
that any such proceeds are insufficient to pay in full the items described in the immediately preceding subclauses (i) through
(v), the US Loan Parties shall remain liable, jointly and severally, for any deficiency.


 


(b)              
by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on account of amounts outstanding under any of the Loan Documents,
in each case, that constitute Canadian Obligations, shall be paid over or delivered to the Canadian Lender to be distributed as
follows:


 


(i)              
First, to amounts due hereunder as fees other than acceptance fees for Bankers’ Acceptance fees;


 


(ii)             
Second, to amounts due hereunder as costs and expenses;


 


(iii)           
Third, to amounts due hereunder as default interest;


 


(iv)            
Fourth, to amounts due hereunder as interest or acceptance fees for Bankers’ Acceptances;


 


(v)            
Fifth, pro rata to (A) amounts due hereunder as principal (including reimbursement obligations in respect of Bankers’
Acceptances) and (B) the amount of outstanding Canadian Reimbursement Obligations (reserving Cash Collateral for all undrawn face
amounts of any outstanding Canadian Letters of Credit (if Section 2.23(f) has not previously been complied with));
and


 


(vi)            
Sixth, the balance, if any, to the person lawfully entitled thereto (including the applicable Loan Party or its successors
or assigns) or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct;


 


provided, that in the event that any such
proceeds are insufficient to pay in full the items described in the immediately preceding subclauses (i) through
(v), the Canadian Loan Parties shall remain liable, jointly and severally, for any deficiency. In the event that,
following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Canadian Event of Default, any Canadian Letters of Credit, or any portions
thereof, expire without being drawn, any Cash Collateral therefor shall not be distributed by the Canadian Lender until the earlier
of (1) the date on which the principal amount of all Canadian Loans and Canadian Reimbursement Obligations have been paid in full
and (2) the date on which such Canadian Event of Default is cured or waived.


 






    167


     


    

 


Section 12.05  
Right to Cure.


 


(a)
                Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement
to the contrary, in the event that the Borrower fails to comply with the requirements of the covenants set forth in Sections 7.02
or 10.06, commencing on the first day following the end of the applicable fiscal quarter with respect to which such covenant is
being tested until the expiration of the thirtieth (30th) day after the end of any such fiscal quarter (the “Cure Period”)
any equity holder of the Borrower shall have the right to (i) in the case of Section 7.02(a) or Section 10.06(a),
make a direct or indirect common equity investment (or other equity investments reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent)
in the Borrower or (ii) in the case of Section 7.02(b) or Section 10.06(b), contribute Covered Assets to a Guarantor
(other than Holdings) (the “Cure Right”), and upon the receipt by the Borrower of net cash proceeds or such
Guarantor of Covered Assets, as the case may be, pursuant to the exercise of the Cure Right (including through the capital contribution
of any such net cash proceeds to such person, the “Specified Equity Contribution”), the covenants set forth
in such Sections shall be recalculated, giving effect to (i) in the case of Section 7.02(a) or Section 10.06(a),
a pro forma increase to the Consolidated Cash Balance to the extent such net cash proceeds would be included in the calculation
thereof and (ii) in the case of Section 7.02(b) or Section 10.06(b), clause (a)(i) of the definition of Guarantor Coverage Ratio,
to the extent the Rig Value of the Covered Assets would be included therein, in each case, for such period in an amount equal
to such net cash proceeds (or Covered Assets, as applicable); provided that such pro forma adjustment to Consolidated Cash Balance
or clause (a)(i) of the definition of Guarantor Coverage Ratio shall be given solely for the purpose of determining the existence
of a Default or an Event of Default under the applicable covenants set forth in Sections 7.02 and 10.06 and only with respect
to the period that includes the fiscal quarter for which such Cure Right was exercised and not for any other purpose under any
Loan Document; provided, further, that, if a Cure Right to remedy such Event of Default is available at such time under Section
12.05(b), then until the expiration of such Cure Period, neither the Administrative Agent nor Canadian Lender shall have the right
to exercise any remedies against the Loan Parties as a result of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default under Section
12.01(c) arising from the failure to comply with Sections 7.02 and 10.06, as the case may be.


 


(b)
                If, after the exercise of the Cure Right
and the recalculations pursuant to clause (a) above, the Borrower shall then be in compliance with the requirements of the covenants
set forth in Sections 7.02 and 10.06 during such period (including for purposes of Section 5.02 and 6.02), the Borrower shall
be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of the covenant as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as
though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable Default or Event of Default under Section
12.01 or 12.02 that had occurred shall be deemed cured. The exercise of the Cure Right shall be subject to the following limitations
and requirements: (i) there shall be no more than two (2) Specified Equity Contributions during the term of this Agreement, (ii)
with respect to any exercise of the Cure Right in respect of the covenant set forth in Section 7.02(a) or Section 10.06(a),
the Specified Equity Contribution shall be no greater than the amount required to cause the Borrower to be in compliance with
the covenants set forth in Sections 7.02(a) and 10.06(a) (the “Cure Amount”) and (iii) all Specified Equity
Contributions and the use of proceeds therefrom will be disregarded for all purposes under this Loan Documents (other than for
determining compliance with Sections 7.02 and 10.06) including for the purposes of calculating pricing and determining
the availability of any carve-outs with respect to the covenants contained in Article IX or Article X hereof.


 






    168


     


    

 


(c)              
In furtherance of Sections 12.05(a) and (b) above, upon actual receipt and designation of the Cure Amount by the Borrower, the
applicable covenants under Sections 7.02 and 10.06 shall be deemed retroactively cured with the same effect as though there had
been no failure to comply with the covenant under such Sections 7.02 and 10.06 and any resulting Event of Default or potential
Event of Default under Section 12.01 or Section 12.02, as applicable, shall be deemed not to have occurred for purposes of the
Loan Documents; provided, however, that prior to the making of the Specified Equity Contribution and cure of such default in such
financial covenant, such default shall constitute an Event of Default for purposes of determining compliance with any conditions
precedent to funding of Loans hereunder and in determining compliance with any provision of the Loan Documents that restricts
or prohibits certain actions during the existence of an Event of Default.

and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 13.01 and subject to the terms
of Article XIII for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto.

effect to such release, or (iii) with respect to which US Required Lenders (or, in the case of the release of all or substantially
all of the US Collateral, each US Lender) have otherwise consented; provided that, in each case of this clause (b), the US Collateral
Agent shall have received a certificate from a responsible officer of Holdings demonstrating that the US Collateral Rig Value is
not less than the US Collateral Coverage Threshold on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such release.


 


(f)               
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Loan Documents, the US Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each
US Lender hereby agree that (a) no US Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the US Collateral, it being
understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under any of the US Security Documents may be exercised
solely by the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as US Collateral Agent on behalf of the US Lenders in accordance with the terms
hereof and thereof, and (b) in the event of a foreclosure by the US Collateral Agent on any of the US Collateral pursuant to a
public or private sale or other disposition, the US Collateral Agent or any US Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or
all of such US Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the US Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of
the US Lenders (but not any US Lender in its individual capacity unless the US Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing)
shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of
the US Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any amount of the US Secured Loans as a credit on account of the
purchase price for any collateral payable by the US Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition. Amounts received in respect
of any US Collateral as a result of the enforcement of remedies following an Event of Default by the US Collateral Agent in accordance
with this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be applied to the US Obligations in accordance with Section 12.04.


 






    170


     


    

 


Section 13.02  
Administrative Agent Individually.


 


(a)              
The person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender
as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender”
or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include
each person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such person and its Affiliates may accept
deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind
of business with US Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder
and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.


 


(b)              
Each US Lender Party understands that the person serving as the Administrative Agent, acting in its individual capacity,
and its Affiliates (collectively, the “Agent’s Group”) are engaged in a wide range of financial
services and businesses (including investment management, financing, securities trading, corporate and investment banking and research)
(such services and businesses are collectively referred to in this Section 13.02 as “Activities”)
and may engage in the Activities with or on behalf of one or more of the Obligors or their respective Affiliates. Furthermore,
the Agent’s Group may, in undertaking the Activities, engage in trading in financial products or undertake other investment
businesses for its own account or on behalf of others (including the Obligors and their Affiliates and including holding, for its
own account or on behalf of others, equity, debt and similar positions in US Borrower, another Obligor or their respective Affiliates),
including trading in or holding long, short or derivative positions in securities, loans or other financial products of one or
more of the Obligors or their Affiliates. Each US Lender Party understands and agrees that in engaging in the Activities, the Agent’s
Group may receive or otherwise obtain information concerning the Obligors or their Affiliates (including information concerning
the ability of the Obligors to perform their respective Obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) which information
may not be available to any of the US Lender Parties that are not members of the Agent’s Group. None of the Administrative
Agent nor any member of the Agent’s Group shall have any duty to disclose to any US Lender Party or use on behalf of the
US Lender Parties, and shall not be liable for the failure to so disclose or use, any information whatsoever about or derived from
the Activities or otherwise (including any information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and
other condition or creditworthiness of any Obligor or any Affiliate of any Obligor) or to account for any revenue or profits obtained
in connection with the Activities, except that the Administrative Agent shall deliver or otherwise make available to each US Lender
Party such documents as are expressly required by any Loan Document to be transmitted by the Administrative Agent to the US Lender
Parties.


 






    171


     


    

 


(c)              
Each US Lender Party further understands that there may be situations where members of the Agent’s Group or their
respective customers (including the Obligors and their Affiliates) either now have or may in the future have interests or take
actions that may conflict with the interests of any one or more of the US Lender Parties (including the interests of the US Lender
Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents). Each US Lender Party agrees that no member of the Agent’s Group is
or shall be required to restrict its activities as a result of the person serving as Administrative Agent being a member of the
Agent’s Group, and that each member of the Agent’s Group may undertake any Activities without further consultation
with or notification to any US Lender Party. None of (i) this Agreement nor any other Loan Document, (ii) the receipt
by the Agent’s Group of information (including Information) concerning the Obligors or their Affiliates (including information
concerning the ability of the Obligors to perform their respective Obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) nor
(iii) any other matter shall give rise to any fiduciary, equitable or contractual duties (including without limitation any
duty of trust or confidence) owing by the Administrative Agent or any member of the Agent’s Group to any US Lender Party
including any such duty that would prevent or restrict the Agent’s Group from acting on behalf of customers (including the
Obligors or their Affiliates) or for its own account.


 


Section 13.03  
Duties of Administrative Agent; Exculpatory Provisions.


 


(a)              
The Administrative Agent’s duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are solely ministerial and administrative
in nature and the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in
the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to
take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, but shall be required to act or refrain from acting (and shall
be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written direction of the US Required Lenders (or such other
number or percentage of the US Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided
that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may
expose the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law.


 


(b)              
The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it  with the consent or at the request
of the US Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the US Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative
Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 12.03 or
14.02) or  in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall
be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or the event or events that give or may give rise to any Default unless and until
US Borrower or any US Lender Party shall have given notice to the Administrative Agent describing such Default and such event or
events. except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, have any duty to disclose,
and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to US Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated
to or obtained by the person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.


 


(c)              
Neither the Administrative Agent nor any member of the Agent’s Group shall be responsible for or have any duty to
ascertain or inquire into  any statement, warranty, representation or other information made or supplied in or in connection
with this Agreement or any other Loan Document,  the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder
or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith or the adequacy, accuracy and/or completeness of the information contained
therein,  the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein
or therein or the occurrence of any Default,  the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement,
any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest
created or purported to be created by any collateral document or  the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article V
or elsewhere herein, other than (but subject to the foregoing clause (ii)) to confirm receipt of items expressly
required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.


 






    172


     


    

 



 


(d)       
Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall require the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties
to carry out any “know your customer” or other checks in relation to any person on behalf of any US Lender Party and
each US Lender Party confirms to the Administrative Agent that it is solely responsible for any such checks it is required to carry
out and that it may not rely on any statement in relation to such checks made by the Administrative Agent or any of its Related
Parties.


 


Section 13.04  
Reliance by Administrative Agent.


 


The Administrative
Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent,
statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other
distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper person. The Administrative
Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper person,
and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of
a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a US Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition
is satisfactory to such US Lender unless an officer of the Administrative Agent responsible for the transactions contemplated hereby
shall have received notice to the contrary from such US Lender prior to the making of such Loan, and in the case of a Borrowing,
such US Lender Party shall not have made available to the Administrative Agent such US Lender Party’s ratable portion of
such Borrowing. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for a Loan Party), independent accountants
and other experts selected by it, and shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts and
shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.


 


Section 13.05  
Delegation of Duties.


 


The Administrative
Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or
through any one or more sub agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub agent may perform
any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. Each such sub agent
and the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and each such sub agent shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions
of this Article XIII and Article XIV (as though such sub agents were the “Administrative
Agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.


 






    173


     


    

 


Section 13.06  
Resignation of Administrative Agent.


 


(a)       The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the US Lender Parties and US Borrower. Upon receipt
of any such notice of resignation, the US Required Lenders shall have the right subject to US Borrower’s consent (unless
an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and in such case, in consultation with US Borrower), to appoint a successor,
which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States.
If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the US Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty
(30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (such 30-day period, the “US Lender
Party Appointment Period”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the US Lender Parties, appoint
a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above and promptly shall provide notice to US Borrower of
such appointment (which notice shall include the name, address, wire transfer information of, and contact person for, the successor
Administrative Agent). In addition and without any obligation on the part of the retiring Administrative Agent to appoint, on behalf
of the US Lender Parties, a successor Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent may at any time upon or after the
end of the US Lender Party Appointment Period notify US Borrower and the US Lender Parties that no qualifying person has accepted
appointment as successor Administrative Agent and the effective date of such retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation
which effective date shall be no earlier than three (3) Business Days after the date of such notice. Upon the resignation
effective date established in such notice and regardless of whether a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed and accepted
such appointment, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless become effective and  the retiring
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents to which it is a party and  all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through
the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each US Lender Party directly, until such time as the US Required Lenders
appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment
as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges
and duties as Administrative Agent of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall
be discharged from all of its duties and obligations as Administrative Agent hereunder or under such other Loan Documents (if not
already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by US Borrower to a successor Administrative
Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between US Borrower and such successor. After
the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under such other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article
and Section 14.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub agents
and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative
Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.


 


(b)       Any resignation pursuant to this Section by a person acting as Administrative Agent shall, unless such person shall notify
US Borrower and the US Lender Parties otherwise, also act to relieve such person and its Affiliates of any obligation to advance
or issue new, or extend existing, Swingline Loans where such advance, issuance or extension is to occur on or after the effective
date of such resignation. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (i) such
successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Swingline Lender,
(ii) the retiring Swingline Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under
the other Loan Documents, and (iii) the successor Swingline Lender shall enter into an Assignment and Assumption and acquire
from the retiring Swingline Lender each outstanding Swingline Loan of such retiring Swingline Lender for a purchase price equal
to par plus accrued interest.


 






    174


     


    

 


Section 13.07  
Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.


 


(a)       
Each US Lender Party confirms to the Administrative Agent, each other US Lender Party and each of their respective Related
Parties that it (i) possesses (individually or through its Related Parties) such knowledge and experience in financial and
business matters that it is capable, without reliance on the Administrative Agent, any other US Lender Party or any of their respective
Related Parties, of evaluating the merits and risks (including tax, legal, regulatory, credit, accounting and other financial matters)
of (x) entering into this Agreement, (y) making Loans and other extensions of credit hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents and (z) in taking or not taking actions hereunder and thereunder, (ii) is financially able to bear such risks
and (iii) has determined that entering into this Agreement and making Loans and other extensions of credit hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents is suitable and appropriate for it.


 


(b)       Each US Lender Party acknowledges that (i) it is solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal and investigation
of all risks arising under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) that it has, independently
and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other US Lender Party or any of their respective Related Parties, made
its own appraisal and investigation of all risks associated with, and its own credit analysis and decision to enter into, this
Agreement based on such documents and information, as it has deemed appropriate and (iii) it will, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other US Lender Party or any of their respective Related Parties, continue to be solely
responsible for making its own appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with, and its own credit
analysis and decision to take or not take action under, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents based on such documents and
information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, which may include, in each case:


 


(A)            
the financial condition, status and capitalization of US Borrower and each other Obligor;


 


(B)            
the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and any
other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Loan
Document;


 


(C)             determining compliance or non-compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan and the form and substance
of all evidence delivered in connection with establishing the satisfaction of each such condition;


 






    175


     


    

 


(D)            
the adequacy, accuracy and/or completeness of any information delivered by the Administrative Agent, any other US Lender
Party or by any of their respective Related Parties under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in
anticipation of, under or in connection with any Loan Document.


 


Section 13.08  
Withholding Tax.


 


To the extent required
by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any US Lender Party an amount equivalent to any
applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.18(a) or (c), each US
Lender Party shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 30 days
after demand therefor, against any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees,
charges and disbursements of any single counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative
Agent by the IRS or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold
tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any US Lender Party for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate
form was not delivered or not property executed, or because such US Lender Party failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a
change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding tax ineffective). A certificate as to the
amount of such payment or liability delivered to any US Lender Party by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. Each US Lender Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing
to such US Lender Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this
Section 13.08. The agreements in this Section 13.08 shall survive the resignation and/or
replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a US Lender Party, the termination
of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.


 


Section 13.09  
No Other Duties, etc..


 


Anything herein to
the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Arrangers listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities
under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or
a US Lender hereunder.


 


Section 13.10  
Enforcement.


 


Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents against the US Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings
at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent, or as the
US Required Lenders may require or otherwise direct, for the benefit of all the US Lenders; provided, however, that
the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that
inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to which it
is a party, (b) any Swingline Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity
as a Swingline Lender) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, (c) any US Lender from exercising
setoff rights in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of this Agreement, or (d) any US Lender from filing proofs of
claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any US Loan Party under
any bankruptcy or insolvency law.


 






    176


     


    

 


Section 13.11  
Guaranteed Cash Management Agreements and Guaranteed Hedge Agreements.


 


No Cash Management
Bank or Hedge Bank that obtains the benefits of Section 12.04, the guaranties provided in Article XI
or of any other guaranty shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder
or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of such guaranties (including the release or impairment of any guaranties)
other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Article XIII to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to
verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Guaranteed
Cash Management Agreements and Guaranteed Hedge Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such
obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management
Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be.


 


Section 13.12  
Credit Bidding.  The US Secured Creditors hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent (including
in its capacity as US Collateral Agent), at the direction of the US Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the US
Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the US Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the US Obligations pursuant
to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition
vehicles) all or any portion of the US Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code,
including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a US
Secured Party is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with
the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (including in its capacity as US Collateral Agent) (whether by judicial
action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law.  In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the US Obligations
owed to the US Secured Creditors shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction
of the US Required Lenders on a ratable basis (with Indebtedness with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent
interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional
to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so
purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection
with such purchase).  In connection with any such bid, (i) the Administrative Agent (including in its capacity as the US Collateral
Agent) shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition
vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the US Secured Creditor’s ratable interests in the US Obligations which were credit bid
shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing
such sale, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition
vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles,
including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing
documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the US Required Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this
Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the
termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the US Required Lenders contained in Section
14.02 of this Agreement), (iv) the Administrative Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to
issue to each of the US Secured Creditors, ratably on account of the relevant Indebtedness which were credit bid, interests, whether
as equity, partnership interests, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or
debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any US Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take
any further action, and (v) to the extent that US Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire
US Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Indebtedness assigned to
the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Indebtedness credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such US Obligations
shall automatically be reassigned to the US Secured Creditors pro rata with their original interest in such Indebtedness and the
equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Indebtedness shall automatically
be cancelled, without the need for any US Secured Creditor or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action.  Notwithstanding
that the ratable portion of the US Obligations of each US Secured Creditor are deemed assigned to the acquisition vehicle or vehicles
as set forth in clause (ii) above, each US Secured Creditor shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding
the US Secured Creditor (and/or any designee of the US Secured Creditor which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued
by such acquisition vehicle) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition
vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid.

provided, however, that notices and communications to any Administrative Agent pursuant to Article II

    180


     


    

 


(xi)          
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (a) (unless the Administrative Agent requests
that the provisions of clause (a) be followed) and any other provision in this Agreement or any other Loan
Document providing for the delivery of any Approved Electronic Communication by any other means, the Obligors shall deliver all
Approved Electronic Communications to the Administrative Agent by properly transmitting such Approved Electronic Communications
in an electronic/soft medium in a format acceptable to the Administrative Agent to oploanswebadmin@citigroup.com or such
other electronic mail address (or similar means of electronic delivery) as the Administrative Agent may notify to the applicable
Borrower in accordance with this clause (a) above. Nothing in this clause (a)(viii) shall
prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party to deliver any Approved Electronic Communication to any Obligor
in any manner authorized in this Agreement or to request that any Borrower effect delivery in such manner.


 


(b)       
Posting of Approved Electronic Communications. Each of the Lender Parties and each Obligor agree that the Administrative
Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the Approved Electronic Communications available to the Lender Parties by posting
such Approved Electronic Communications on IntraLinksTM or a substantially similar electronic platform chosen by the Administrative
Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).


 


(i)           Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures
and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Closing Date, a dual firewall
and a User ID/Password Authorization System) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a single-user-per-deal authorization
method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lender Parties and
each Obligor acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and
that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. In consideration for the convenience and other
benefits afforded by such distribution and for the other consideration provided hereunder, the receipt and sufficiency of which
is hereby acknowledged, each of the Lender Parties and each Obligor hereby approves distribution of the Approved Electronic Communications
through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.


 


(ii)           THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS
AVAILABLE”. NONE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY OTHER MEMBER OF THE AGENT’S GROUP WARRANT THE ACCURACY, ADEQUACY
OR COMPLETENESS OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY
LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. NO WARRANTY OF
ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE AGENT PARTIES
IN CONNECTION WITH THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.


 






    181


     


    

 


(iii)          Each of the Lender Parties and each Obligor agree that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable
law) shall not be obligated to, store the Approved Electronic Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance
with the Administrative Agent’s generally-applicable document retention procedures and policies.


 


(c)       
Treatment of Information.


 


(i)            Certain of the Lenders may enter into this Agreement and take or not take action hereunder or under the other Loan Documents
on the basis of information that does not contain material non-public information with respect to any of the Obligors or their
securities (“Restricting Information”). Other Lenders may enter into this Agreement and take or not take
action hereunder or under the other Loan Documents on the basis of information that may contain Restricting Information. Each Lender
Party acknowledges that United States federal and state securities laws prohibit any person from purchasing or selling securities
on the basis of material, non-public information concerning the such issuer of such securities or, subject to certain limited exceptions,
from communicating such information to any other person. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall,
by making any Communications (including Restricting Information) available to a Lender Party, by participating in any conversations
or other interactions with a Lender Party or otherwise, make or be deemed to make any statement with regard to or otherwise warrant
that any such information or Communication does or does not contain Restricting Information nor shall the Administrative Agent
or any of its Related Parties be responsible or liable in any way for any decision a Lender Party may make to limit or to not limit
its access to Restricting Information. In particular, none of the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties (A) shall
have, and the Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and each of its Related Parties, hereby disclaims, any duty to ascertain
or inquire as to whether or not a Lender Party has or has not limited its access to Restricting Information, such Lender Party’s
policies or procedures regarding the safeguarding of material, nonpublic information or such Lender Party’s compliance with
applicable laws related thereto or (B) shall have, or incur, any liability to any Obligor or Lender Party or any of their
respective Related Parties arising out of or relating to the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties providing or not
providing Restricting Information to any Lender Party.


 






    182


     


    

 


(ii)           
Each Obligor agrees that  all Communications it provides to the Administrative Agent intended for delivery to the Lender
Parties whether by posting to the Approved Electronic Platform or otherwise shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC”
if such Communications do not contain Restricting Information which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC”
shall appear prominently on the first page thereof,  by marking Communications “PUBLIC,” each Obligor shall be
deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties to treat such Communications as either publicly available
information or not material information (although, in this latter case, such Communications may contain sensitive business information
and, therefore, remain subject to the confidentiality undertakings of Section 14.12) with respect to such Obligor
or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws,  all Communications marked “PUBLIC”
may be delivered to all Lender Parties and may be made available through a portion of the Approved Electronic Platform designated
 “Public Side Information,” and  the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any Communications that are
not marked “PUBLIC” as Restricting Information and may post such Communications to a portion of the Approved Electronic
Platform not designated “Public Side Information.” Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Affiliates shall
be responsible for any statement or other designation by an Obligor regarding whether a Communication contains or does not contain
material non-public information with respect to any of the Obligors or their securities nor shall the Administrative Agent or any
of its Affiliates incur any liability to any Obligor, any Lender Party or any other person for any action taken by the Administrative
Agent or any of its Affiliates based upon such statement or designation, including any action as a result of which Restricting
Information is provided to a Lender Party that may decide not to take access to Restricting Information. Nothing in this Section
shall modify or limit a Lender Party’s obligations under Section 14.12 with regard to Communications and
the maintenance of the confidentiality of or other treatment of Information.


 


(iii)          
Each Lender Party acknowledges that circumstances may arise that require it to refer to Communications that might contain
Restricting Information. Accordingly, each Lender Party agrees that it will nominate at least one designee to receive Communications
(including Restricting Information) on its behalf and identify such designee (including such designee’s contact information)
on such Lender Party’s Administrative Questionnaire. Each Lender Party agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time
to time of such Lender Party’s designee’s e-mail address to which notice of the availability of Restricting Information
may be sent by electronic transmission.


 


(iv)         
Each Lender Party acknowledges that Communications delivered hereunder and under the other Loan Documents may contain Restricting
Information and that such Communications are available to all Lender Parties generally. Each Lender Party that elects not to take
access to Restricting Information does so voluntarily and, by such election, acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent
and other Lender Parties may have access to Restricting Information that is not available to such electing Lender Party. None of
the Administrative Agent nor any Lender Party with access to Restricting Information shall have any duty to disclose such Restricting
Information to such electing Lender Party or to use such Restricting Information on behalf of such electing Lender Party, and shall
not be liable for the failure to so disclose or use, such Restricting Information.


 






    183


     


    

 


(v)          
The provisions of the foregoing clauses of this Section are designed to assist the Administrative Agent, the Lender Parties
and the Obligors, in complying with their respective contractual obligations and applicable law in circumstances where certain
Lender Parties express a desire not to receive Restricting Information notwithstanding that certain Communications hereunder or
under the other Loan Documents or other information provided to the Lender Parties hereunder or thereunder may contain Restricting
Information. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties warrants or makes any other statement with respect
to the adequacy of such provisions to achieve such purpose nor does the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties warrant
or make any other statement to the effect that an Obligor’s or Lender Party’s adherence to such provisions will be
sufficient to ensure compliance by such Obligor or Lender Party with its contractual obligations or its duties under applicable
law in respect of Restricting Information and each of the Lender Parties and each Obligor assumes the risks associated therewith.


 


Section 14.02  
Waivers; Amendment.


 


(a)        Generally. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder
or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right
or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have.
No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective
unless the same shall be permitted by this Section 14.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective
only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making
of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have
had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on US Borrower in any case shall entitle US Borrower to
any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.


 


(b)       
Required Consents. Subject to Section 14.02(c) and (d), and Section 2.11(c),
neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended, supplemented or
modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by US Borrower and
the Administrative Agent or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered
into by the Administrative Agent and the US Loan Party or US Loan Parties that are party thereto, in each case with the written
consent of the US Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall be effective if the effect thereof would:


 






    184


     


    

 


(i)           
increase the US Commitment of any US Lender without the written consent of such US Lender (it being understood that no amendment,
modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any condition precedent, covenant or Default shall constitute an increase
in the US Commitment of any US Lender);


 


(ii)           
reduce the principal amount or premium, if any, of any US Loan (except in connection with a payment contemplated by clause (ix) below)
or reduce the rate of interest thereon (other than interest pursuant to Section 2.06(f)), or reduce any US Commitment
Fees payable hereunder, or change the form or currency of payment of any US Obligation, without the written consent of each US
Lender directly affected thereby (it being understood that any amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement
shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest for purposes of this clause (ii));


 


(iii)          change the scheduled final maturity of any US Loan, or any scheduled date of payment (or permitted prepayment) of
any US Loan,  postpone the date for payment of any interest, premium or fees that constitute US Obligations payable hereunder,
  reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment (other than waiver of any increase in the interest rate pursuant to
Section 2.06(f)), or  postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any US Commitment beyond the Maturity
Date, in any case, without the written consent of each US Lender directly affected thereby;


 


(iv)          increase the maximum duration of Interest Periods in respect of US Eurodollar Borrowings hereunder, without the written
consent of each US Lender directly affected thereby;


 


(v)          permit the assignment or delegation by US Borrower of any of its rights or obligations under any Loan Document, without
the written consent of each US Lender;


 


(vi)         
release Holdings or any other Guarantor from its guarantee of the Guaranteed Obligations in respect of US Obligations, or
limit its liability in respect of such guarantee, without the written consent of each US Lender;


 


(vii)        
change Section 12.04 without the written consent of each US Lender;


 


(viii)       
change Section 2.17(b), (c) or (d) in a manner that would alter the
pro rata sharing of payments or setoffs required thereby or any other provision in a manner that would alter the pro
rata allocation among the US Lenders of US Loan disbursements, including the requirements of Section 2.02(a)
and 2.20(d), without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby or change the last sentence of
Section 2.08 without the written consent of each Lender;


 


(ix)          
change any provision of this Section 14.02(b) or Section 14.02(c), without the written
consent of each US Lender directly affected thereby;


 






    185


     


    

 


(x)          
change the percentage set forth in the definition of “US Required Lenders” or any other provision
of any Loan Document (including this Section) specifying the number or percentage of US Lenders required to waive, amend or modify
any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each US Lender,
other than to increase such percentage or number or to give any additional US Lender or group of US Lenders such right to waive,
amend or modify or make any such determination or grant any such consent;


 


(xi)         
subordinate the US Obligations to any other obligation, without the written consent of each US Lender;


 


(xii)         
change or waive any provision of Article XIV as the same applies to the Administrative Agent, or any
other provision hereof as the same applies to the rights or obligations of the Administrative Agent, in each case without the written
consent of the Administrative Agent; or


 


(xiii)       
change or waive any provision hereof relating to Swingline Loans (including the definition of “Swingline Commitment”),
without the written consent of each Swingline Lender or any provision hereof relating to US Letters of Credit without the written
consent of each US Issuing Bank or relating to Canadian Letters of Credit without the written consent of each Canadian Issuing
Bank.


 


Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein:


 


(A)            
no US Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except
to the extent the consent of such US Lender would be required under clause (i), (ii) or (iii) in
the proviso to the first sentence of this Section 14.02(b);


 


(B)             
any Loan Document may be waived, amended, supplemented or modified pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered
into by US Borrower and the Administrative Agent (without the consent of any US Lender) solely to cure a defect or error; and


 


(C)             
any US Issuing Bank may increase the maximum amount of Letters of Credit it has agreed to issue without the consent of any
other Person; provided that the aggregate face amount for all US Letters of Credit outstanding shall not exceed the applicable
Letters of Credit Maximum Amount.


 


(c)       
Dissenting Lenders. If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination of the provisions
of this Agreement as contemplated by Section 14.02(b), the consent of the US Required Lenders is obtained but
the consent of one or more of such other US Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained, then US Borrower shall have the
right to replace all, but not less than all, of such non-consenting Lender or Lenders (so long as all non-consenting Lenders are
so replaced) with one or more persons pursuant to Section 2.19(b) so long as at the time of such replacement each
such new Lender consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination.


 






    186


     


    

 


(d)       Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, amendments and waivers (including in respect of curing any defects of errors)
of provisions and definitions herein and in any other Loan Document to which a Canadian Loan Party is a party that relate in any
way to the Canadian Revolving Loans provided for herein shall, as a condition to the enforceability of such amendment or waiver
against Canadian Borrower and Canadian Lender, require the approval of Canadian Borrower and the Canadian Lender, respectively.
Consent of Canadian Borrower and the Canadian Lender shall not be required for any waiver or amendment to the extent such waiver
or amendment is intended to impact existing provisions or definitions herein or in any such Loan Document (the “Existing
US Provisions”) as they relate solely to US Loans, US Lenders, Administrative Agent and US Borrower. To the extent
that the Existing US Provisions which are to be amended or waived also impact the Canadian Revolving Loans and such amendments
are not consented to by Canadian Borrower and the Canadian Lender, then such Existing US Provisions shall, as they relate solely
to the Canadian Revolving Loans, the Canadian Lender and Canadian Borrower, remain as they exist prior to any such proposed amendments.
The consent of only Holdings, Canadian Borrower and the Canadian Lender shall be required for any waiver or amendment to the extent
such waiver or amendment is intended to impact existing provisions or definitions herein or in any such Loan Document (the “Existing
Canadian Provisions”) as they relate solely to Canadian Loans or the Canadian Lender. To the extent that the Existing
Canadian Provisions which are to be amended or waived also impact the US Loans and such amendments are not consented to as provided
in clause (b) above, then such Existing Canadian Provisions shall, as they relate solely to the US Loans,
US Lenders, Administrative Agent and US Borrower, remain as they exist prior to any such proposed amendments.


 


Section 14.03

(a)

(i)           
US Borrower shall pay  all reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent (including
in its capacity as US Collateral Agent) and its respective Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements
of a single counsel for the Administrative Agent) in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein
(including the obtaining and maintaining of CUSIP numbers for the Loans), the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and
administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendment, amendment and restatement, modification or waiver
of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated),  all
reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any US Lender (including the fees, charges
and disbursements of a single counsel for the Administrative Agent and a single counsel to the US Lenders, and, in the case of
an actual or perceived (in good faith) conflict of interest, one conflicts counsel to all Indemnitees (as defined below), taken
as a whole), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights  in connection with this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section 14.03, or  in connection with the US Loans made
hereunder, including all such out of pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such
US Loans and  all documentary and similar taxes and charges in respect of the Loan Documents.


 






    187


     


    

 


(ii)           Canadian Borrower shall pay promptly upon notice from either Canadian Lender Party all reasonable and documented costs and
expenses of such Canadian Lender Party in connection with the Loan Documents to which Canadian Borrower is a party and the establishment
of the Canadian facility and Canadian letter of credit facility provided herein, including in connection with preparation, printing,
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which Canadian Borrower is a party whether or not any
Canadian Borrowing has been made or any Canadian Letter of Credit issued hereunder, and also including the reasonable fees and
out of pocket expenses of a single counsel for the Canadian Lender Parties with respect thereto and with respect to advising the
Canadian Lender Parties as to their rights and responsibilities under this Agreement and such other Loan Documents. Except for
ordinary expenses of the Canadian Lender Parties relating to the day to day administration of this Agreement, Canadian Borrower
further agrees to pay within 30 days of demand by either Canadian Lender Party all reasonable costs and expenses in connection
with the preparation or review of waivers, consents and amendments pertaining to this Agreement, and in connection with the establishment
of the validity and enforceability of this Agreement and the preservation or enforcement of rights of the Canadian Lender Parties
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which Canadian Borrower is a party, including all reasonable costs and expenses
sustained by the Canadian Lender Parties as a result of any failure by Canadian Borrower to perform or observe any of its obligations
hereunder, in connection with Canadian Letters of Credit or payments thereunder or in connection with any action, suit or proceeding
(whether or not a Canadian Indemnified Party (as referred to in Section 14.03(b)(ii)) is a party or subject
thereto), together with interest thereon from and after such 30th day if such payment is not made by such time.


 


(b)       
Indemnification.


 


(i)           
Indemnification by US Borrower. US Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (including in its capacity as
US Collateral Agent) (and any sub-agent thereof), the Arranger (and any sub-agent thereof) each US Lender, each US Issuing Bank
and each Related Party of any of the foregoing persons (each such person being called an “Indemnitee”)
against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including
the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee) incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee
by any party hereto or any third party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of  the execution or delivery of
this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any amendment, amendment and restatement, modification or waiver of the provisions
hereof or thereof, or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their
respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby,  any
US Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, or  any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation
or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third
party or by US Borrower or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that
such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related
expenses  are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final judgment (with any time for appeals having expired)
to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or  result from a claim brought by US
Borrower or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for a breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder
or under any other Loan Document, if US Borrower or such Loan Party has obtained a final judgment (with any time for appeals having
expired) in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 14.03 shall
not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.


 






    188


     


    

 


(ii)          
Indemnification by Canadian Borrower. In addition to any liability of Canadian Borrower to the Canadian Lender under
any other provision hereof, Canadian Borrower shall indemnify the Canadian Indemnified Parties and hold each Canadian Indemnified
Party harmless against any losses, claims, costs, damages or liabilities (including any loss of profits or fees anticipated hereunder),
any expense or cost incurred in the liquidation and re-deployment of funds acquired to fund or maintain any portion of a Canadian
Loan and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and reasonable legal fees (on a solicitor and his own client basis), disbursements,
charged expenses and other costs incurred by the same as a result of or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
to which Canadian Borrower is a party, including as a result of or in connection with:


 


(A)            
any cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or re-deployment in whole or in part of deposits or other funds
required by the Canadian Lender to fund any Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance or to fund or maintain any Canadian Loan as a result
of Canadian Borrower’s failure to complete a Canadian Borrowing or to make any payment, repayment or prepayment on the date
required hereunder or specified by it in any notice given hereunder;


 


(B)             
subject to permitted or deemed rollovers and conversions, Canadian Borrower’s failure to provide for the payment to
the Canadian Lender of the full principal amount of each Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance on its maturity date;


 


(C)             
Canadian Borrower’s failure to pay any other amount, including without limitation any interest or fee, due hereunder
on its due date after the expiration of any applicable grace or notice periods (subject, however, to the interest obligations of
Canadian Borrower hereunder for overdue amounts);


 


(D)            
Canadian Borrower’s repayment or prepayment of a Canadian US$ Libor Loan otherwise than on the last day of its Interest
Period;

the prepayment of any outstanding Canadian Bankers’ Acceptance before the maturity date of such Canadian Bankers’
Acceptance;


 


(F)             
Canadian Borrower’s failure to give any notice required to be given by it to the Canadian Lender;


 


(G)            
the failure of Canadian Borrower to make any other payment to the Canadian Lender due hereunder;


 






    189


     


    

 


(H)            
any inaccuracy or incompleteness of Canadian Borrower’s representations and warranties contained in Article IV;


 


(I)               
any failure of Canadian Borrower to observe or fulfill its obligations under Article VIII;


 


(J)               
any failure of Canadian Borrower to observe or fulfill any other Canadian Obligation not specifically referred to above;
or


 


(K)            
the occurrence of any Canadian Default or Canadian Event of Default in respect of Canadian Borrower;


 


provided that this Section 14.03(b)(ii) shall
not apply to any losses, claims, costs, damages or liabilities to the extent that they arise by reason of  the willful misconduct
or gross negligence of such Canadian Indemnified Party,  the failure of the Canadian Lender to advance funds hereunder when
all conditions precedent to a Canadian Borrowing hereunder have been satisfied and  a claim brought by Canadian Borrower or
any other Loan Party against a Canadian Indemnified Party for breach in bad faith of such Canadian Indemnified Party’s obligations
hereunder or under any other Loan Document, in each case, as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction.


 


(c)       
Reimbursement by US Lenders. To the extent that US Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required
under paragraph (a)(i) or (b)(i) of this Section 14.03 to be paid by it to the Administrative
Agent, the US Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), any US Issuing Bank, any Arranger, any Swingline Lender or any Related
Party of any of the foregoing, each US Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such
Issuing Bank, Arranger, Swingline Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such US Lender’s pro rata share
(determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (such
indemnity shall be effective whether or not the related losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses are incurred
or asserted by any party hereto or any third party); provided that  with respect to such unpaid amounts owed to any
US Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender solely in its capacity as such, only the US Lenders shall be required to pay such unpaid amounts,
such payment to be made severally among them based on such US Lenders’ US Pro Rata Percentage (determined as of the time
that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought),  the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim,
damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any
such sub-agent), any US Issuing Bank, any Swingline Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the
foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such US Issuing Bank or such Swingline Lender in connection
with such capacity and  such indemnity for such Swingline Lender shall not include losses incurred by such Swingline Lender
due to one or more US Lenders defaulting in their obligations to purchase participations of Swingline Exposure under Section 2.20(d)
(it being understood that this proviso shall not affect such Swingline Lender’s rights against any US Defaulting Lender).
The obligations of the US Lenders under this paragraph (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.17.
For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the total
US Revolving Exposure and unused US Commitments at the time.

(d)       
Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, no party
hereto shall assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim against any other person, on any theory of liability, for special,
indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as
a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that nothing contained in this Section 14.03(d)
or otherwise shall limit any Borrower’s indemnity or reimbursement obligations to the extent otherwise set forth in this
Section 14.03. No party hereto shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients
of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission
systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby unless
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final judgment (with any time for appeals having expired) to have resulted from
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such person.


 


(e)       
Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than three (3) Business Days (if made
to the Administrative Agent) or three (3) Banking Days (if made to the Canadian Lender) after demand therefor.


 


Section 14.04  
Successors and Assigns.


 


(a)       
Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of each Issuing Bank
that issues any Letter of Credit), except that:


 


(i)           US Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent
of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, each Swingline Lender and each US Lender;


 


(ii)          Canadian Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of the Canadian Lender;

the Canadian Lender may not sell, assign, transfer or grant an interest in the Canadian Loans, this Agreement, the other
Loan Documents to which it is a party or any of its rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder without the prior written consent
of Canadian Borrower (unless a Canadian Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) and provided that no such sale, assignment,
transfer or grant by the Canadian Lender shall:


 


(A)            
affect the obligations of Canadian Borrower hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party;


 






    191

or any other provision of such other Loan Documents had such sale, assignment, transfer or grant not taken place;


 


provided, further that
in addition to the foregoing and except during the continuance of a Canadian Default in respect of Canadian Borrower, the Canadian
Lender shall not so sell, assign, transfer or grant an interest to a person that is a non-resident of Canada for purposes of the
Income Tax Act (Canada) without the consent of Canadian Borrower.


 


Any other attempted
assignment or transfer by any Loan Party or Canadian Lender shall be null and void. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied,
shall be construed to confer upon any person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted
hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (d) of this Section, any Affiliate of each Issuing
Bank that issues a Letter of Credit and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the other Indemnitees) any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.


 


(b)       
Assignments by Lenders.


 


(i)            Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any US Lender may at any time assign
to one or more assignees who is an Eligible Assignee all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including
all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including participations in US L/C Obligations or Swingline Loans) at the time
owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:


 


(A)            
US Borrower; provided that no consent of US Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a US Lender Party or
an Affiliate of a US Lender Party, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee;
provided, further, that US Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any assignment requiring its consent unless
it shall object thereto by written notice within seven (7) Business Days after having received notice thereof;


 


(B)             
the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment
of any Revolving Commitment to an assignee that is a Lender with a Revolving Commitment immediately prior to giving effect to such
assignment; and


 


(C)             
the US Issuing Banks and Swingline Lenders.


 


(ii)           
Assignments in respect of US Commitments and US Loans shall be subject to the following additional conditions:


 






    192


     


    

 



 


(A)         Except
in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning US Lender’s US Commitment and the US Loans
at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect
to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the US Commitment (which for this purpose includes US Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if
the applicable US Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the US Loans of the assigning US Lender
subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered
to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of
the Trade Date) shall not be less than US$10,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of US Revolving Loans or US Revolving
Commitments, unless each of the Administrative Agent, US Issuing Bank and, so long as no Default with respect to US Borrower has
occurred and is continuing, US Borrower otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);


 


(B)         each
partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning US Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement with respect to the US Loan or the US Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall
not prohibit any US Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate tranches on a non-pro
rata basis; and


 


(C)         the
parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a
processing and recordation fee of US$3,500 (provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive
such processing and recordation fee in the case of any Assignment), and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a US Lender,
shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.


 


Subject to acceptance
and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 14.04,
from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party
to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations
of a US Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning US Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such
Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption
covering all of the assigning US Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such US Lender shall cease to be a
party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.18
and 14.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment
or transfer by a US Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be
treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance
with Section 14.04(d). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, any assignment
by a US Lender of all or a portion of its obligations hereunder shall be pro rata as to the amount of outstanding US Loans
so assigned as between US Secured Loans and US Unsecured Loans.


 






    193


     


    

 


(c)         Register.
The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of US Borrower, shall maintain a copy of each Assignment
and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the US Lenders, and the US Commitments
of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the US Loans and US L/C Obligations and any payment made by each US Issuing
Bank under any applicable US Letter of Credit owing to, each US Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).
The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and US Borrower, the Administrative Agent, US Issuing
Banks and the US Lender Parties shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as
a US Lender Party hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be
available for inspection by US Borrower, each US Issuing Bank and each Swingline Lender (with respect to US Revolving Lenders
only), and any US Lender (with respect to its own interest only), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable
prior notice.


 


(d)         Participations.
Any US Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, US Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Swingline Lender
or any US Issuing Bank sell participations to any person (other than a natural person or US Borrower or any of its Affiliates)
(each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such US Lender’s rights or obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its US Commitment or the US Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such US
Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such US Lender shall remain solely responsible
to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) US Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the
US Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such US Lender in connection with such US Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Agreement.


 


Any agreement or instrument
pursuant to which a US Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such US Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce
the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of such Loan Documents;
provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such US Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant,
agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii)
of the first proviso to Section 14.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (e) of
this Section, US Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.13, 2.14
and 2.18 (subject to the requirements and limitations of those Sections, including the requirements under Section 2.18(e)
(it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.18(e) shall be delivered to the participating
US Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a US Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph
(b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 14.08
as though it were a US Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17 as though
it were a US Lender.


 


Each US Lender that
sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of US Borrower, maintain a register on which
it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s
interest in the US Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided
that no US Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to US Borrower or any other
person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any US Commitment
or US Loan or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish
that such US Commitment, US Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States
Treasury Regulations.


 






    194


     


    

 


The entries in the
Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such US Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded
in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to
the contrary.


 


(e)         Limitations
on Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.13,
2.14 and 2.18 than the applicable US Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the
participation sold to such Participant without US Borrower’s prior written consent in its sole discretion, except to the
extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the
applicable participation. Each US Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the US Borrower’s request and expense, to
use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.19 with respect
to any Participant.


 


(f)         Certain
Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided
that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee
or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. In the case of any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans, such Lender
may, without the consent of US Borrower, Canadian Borrower, the Administrative Agent or Canadian Agent, collaterally assign or
pledge all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement, including the Loans and US Notes, if any, or any other instrument
evidencing its rights as a Lender under this Agreement, to any holder of, trustee for, or any other representative of holders
of, obligations owed or securities issued, by such fund, as security for such obligations or securities.


 


(g)         Electronic
Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like
import in Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form,
each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based
recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Requirement of Law, including the
Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or
any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.


 


Section 14.05  
Survival of Agreement.


 


All covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties made by any Loan Party in the Loan Documents to which it is a party and in the certificates or other
instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been
relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any
Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative
Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit
is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan
or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired
or terminated. The provisions of Section 2.13, Section 2.14, Section 2.16,
Section 2.17, Section 2.18 and Article XIV (other than Section 14.12)
shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment
of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.


 






    195


     


    

 


Section 14.06  
Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.


 


This Agreement may
be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original,
but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any separate
letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Lender, constitute the entire contract
among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral
or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 7.01, this Agreement shall
become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lender and when the Administrative
Agent and the Canadian Lender shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of
the other parties hereto. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import
herein or any other Loan Document shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form,
each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based
recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Requirement of Law, including the
Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or
any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.


 


Section 14.07  
Severability.


 


Any provision of this
Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the
extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision
in any other jurisdiction.


 


Section 14.08  
Right of Setoff.


 


(a)         If
a US Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each US Lender, and each of their respective Affiliates, is hereby
authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, to set off and
apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and
other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account
of US Borrower or any other US Loan Party against any and all of the US Obligations of US Borrower or such US Loan Party now or
hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such US Lender is a party, irrespective of whether or not
such US Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such US Obligations may
be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such US Lender different from the branch or office holding such
deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. Each US Lender agrees to notify US Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after
any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff
and application.


 






    196


     


    

 


(b)         If
a Canadian Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Canadian Lender shall have the right (and is hereby authorized
by Canadian Borrower) at any time and from time to time to combine all or any of Canadian Borrower’s accounts with the Canadian
Lender, and to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, term or demand) including, but
not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit whether matured or unmatured, and any other indebtedness at
any time held by Canadian Borrower or owing by the Canadian Lender to or for the credit or account of Canadian Borrower against
and towards the satisfaction of any Canadian Obligations owing by Canadian Borrower, and may do so notwithstanding that the balances
of such accounts and the liabilities are expressed in different currencies, and the Canadian Lender is hereby authorized to effect
any necessary currency conversions at the noon spot rate of exchange announced by the Bank of Canada on the Banking Day before
the day of conversion. The Canadian Lender agrees to notify Canadian Borrower promptly after any such setoff and application;
provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.


 


(c)         The
rights of each Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including
other rights of setoff) that such Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. The parties hereto specifically acknowledge
the rights of setoff of the Canadian Lender and its affiliates under, pursuant to or in connection with the Canadian Bank Products
to which it is a party and agree that the proceeds of exercising such rights of setoff shall be for the sole account of the Canadian
Lender or its affiliates, as the case may be.


 


Section 14.09  
Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.


 


(a)         Governing
Law. This Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and all disputes between the parties under or relating to this
Agreement or the facts or circumstances leading to its execution, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be construed in
accordance with and governed by the laws (including statutes of limitation) of the State of New York, without regard to conflicts
of law principles that would require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction; provided however, that the parties acknowledge
that the Canadian Security Agreement and all matters relating thereto, including, for certainty the enforcement of the security
interests created thereunder, shall be governed by the laws of the Province of Alberta (including the relevant federal laws of
Canada applicable therein).


 


(b)         Submission
to Jurisdiction. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive
jurisdiction (subject to the last sentence of this Section 14.09(b)) of the Supreme Court of the State of New
York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate
court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement
of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any
such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
law, in such Federal court; provided however, that each party to the Canadian Security Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
submits, for itself and its property, to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Alberta in any action
or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Canadian Security Agreement, including, for certainty the enforcement of the security
interests created thereunder. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be
conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing
in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may otherwise
have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Loan Party or its properties
in the courts of any jurisdiction.


 






    197


     


    

 


(c)         Venue.
Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of
Law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of
or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in Section 14.09(b). Each
of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, the defense
of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.


 


(d)         Service
of Process. Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating
to any Loan Document, in the manner provided for notices (other than telecopier) in Section 14.01 or, in the
case of the Canadian Borrower, its registered office under the laws of the Province of Alberta. Nothing in this Agreement or any
other Loan Document will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Requirements
of Law. Certain Loan Parties are not organized under the laws the United States (including the States thereof and the District
of Columbia) and each such Loan Party therefore hereby appoints US Borrower as its authorized agent (the “Authorized
Agent”) upon whom process may be served in any action, suit or proceeding arising out of or based on this Agreement
or the Obligations which may be instituted in the Supreme Court of the State of New York or the United States District Court for
the Southern District of New York, in either case in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, by any Lender hereunder,
and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each such Loan Party hereby waives any objection which it may now or hereafter
have to the laying of venue of any such proceeding and expressly and irrevocably accepts and submits, for the benefit of the Lenders
from time to time, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any such court in respect of any such action, suit or proceeding, for itself
and with respect to its properties, revenues and assets. Such appointment shall be irrevocable unless and until the appointment
of a successor authorized agent for such purpose, and such successor’s acceptance of such appointment, shall have occurred.
Each such Loan Party agrees to take any and all actions, including the filing of any and all documents and instruments, that may
be necessary to continue such appointment in full force and effect as aforesaid. Service of process upon the Authorized Agent
with respect to any such action shall be deemed, in every respect, effective service of process upon such Loan Party. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any action against such Loan Party arising out of or based on any of the Loan Documents to which it is a party
may also be instituted in any court in the jurisdiction of organization of such Loan Party, and such Loan Party expressly accepts
the jurisdiction of any such court in any such action. US Borrower hereby accepts the foregoing appointment as agent for service
of process.

HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). Each party hereto (a) certifies that no representative, agent
or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation,

Section 14.13  
USA PATRIOT ACT Notice and Customer Verification.


 


(a)         Each
US Lender that is subject to the USA PATRIOT ACT and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby
notifies US Borrower that pursuant to the “know your customer” regulations and the requirements of the USA PATRIOT
ACT, they are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each US Loan Party, which information includes

each US Loan Party. This information must be delivered to the US Lenders and the Administrative Agent no later than five (5) days
prior to the Closing Date and thereafter promptly upon request. This notice is given in accordance with the requirements of the
USA PATRIOT ACT and is effective as to the US Lenders and the Administrative Agent.


 


(b)         Canadian
Borrower shall promptly provide all information, including supporting documentation and other evidence, as may be reasonably requested

and regulations, whether now or hereafter in existence.


 


Section 14.14  
Interest Rate Limitation.


 


Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts
which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable Requirements of Law (collectively, the “Charges”),
shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken,
received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, the rate of interest payable
in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and,
to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result
of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans
or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon
at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

Section 14.15  
Obligations Absolute.


 


To the fullest extent
permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, all obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional
irrespective of:


 


(a)         any
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of any Loan Party;


 


(b)         any
lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto against any Loan
Party;


 


(c)         any
change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment
or waiver of or any consent to any departure from any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;


 


(d)         any
exchange, release or non-perfection of any other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure
from any guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations;


 


(e)         any
exercise or non-exercise, or any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect hereof or any Loan Document;
or


 


(f)         any
other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Loan Parties.


 


Section 14.16  
Judgment Currency.


 


(a)         Each
Loan Party’s obligation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to which it is a party to make payments in US Dollars
or Canadian Dollars (pursuant to such obligation, the “Obligation Currency”) shall not be discharged
or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation
Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Administrative Agent, the
Canadian Lender or any other respective Lender of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the Administrative
Agent, the Canadian Lender or such other Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining
or enforcing judgment against any Loan Party in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from
any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment
Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made (i) with respect to US Obligations,
at the Dollar Equivalent, (ii) with respect to Canadian Obligations, at the Equivalent Amount, and (iii) in the case
of currencies other than US Dollars or Canadian Dollars, (A) with respect to US Obligations, the rate of exchange (as quoted
by the Administrative Agent or if the Administrative Agent does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a known dealer
in such currency designated by the Administrative Agent) determined, in each case, as of the Business Day immediately preceding
the day on which the judgment is given and (B) with respect to Canadian Obligations, the rate of exchange (as quoted by the
Canadian Lender or if the Canadian Lender does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a known dealer in such currency
designated by the Canadian Lender) determined, in each case, as of the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which the
judgment is given (such Business Day or Banking Day, as applicable, being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency
Conversion Date”).


 






    201


     


    

 


(b)         If
there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment
of the amount due, each Loan Party covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any
event not a lesser amount) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the
rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased
with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment
Currency Conversion Date.


 


Section 14.17  
No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.


 


Each US Loan Party
agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary
or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between the Administrative Agent, any US Lender Party or any Affiliate
thereof, on the one hand, and such US Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other. Each US Loan Party acknowledges
and agrees that any of the Administrative Agent, Arrangers, Issuing Banks, and Lenders may have economic interests that conflict
with those of the Loan Parties, their equity holders and/or their affiliates.


 


Section 14.18  
Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.


 


Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party
hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such
liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees
and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:


 


(a)         the
application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder
which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and


 


(b)         the
effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:


 


(i)         a
reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;


 


(ii)         a
conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution,
its parent entity, undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares
or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement
or any other Loan Document; or


 






    202


     


    

 


(iii)         the
variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable
Resolution Authority.


 


Section 14.19  
Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs.


 


To the extent that
the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap Contract or any other agreement or instrument
that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”),
the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together
with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such
Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported
QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of
the United States):


 


(a)         in
the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject
to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit
Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property
securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer
would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest,
obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event
a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime,
Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be
exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised
under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States
or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of
the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported
QFC or any QFC Credit Support.


 


(b)         As
used in this Section 14.19, the following terms have the following meanings:


 


“BHC Act
Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance
with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.


 


“Covered
Entity” means any of the following: (a) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and
interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (b) a “covered bank” as that term is defined
in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (c) a “covered FSI” as that term is
defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).


 


“Default
Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§
252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.


 


“QFC” has
the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12
U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).

Terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of [ _] (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Initial Indenture”), by and among Holdings, as issuer, the Company and the Specified Subsidiary Guarantors, as guarantors, and the Trustee, Holdings has issued $[ ] aggregate principal amount of its [ ]% Senior Notes due [ ] (the “Initial Notes”). From time to time after the date hereof, one or more of the Specified Subsidiary Guarantors may incur indebtedness, whether as an issuer, borrower, guarantor or other obligor under one or more other indentures or other instruments to the extent permitted under the Credit Agreement and each other Indenture (any such indenture or other instrument, an “Additional Indenture” and, together with the Initial Indenture, each an “Indenture”; and the notes issued under any such Additional Indenture, the “Additional Notes” and, together with the Initial Notes, collectively, the “Notes”). As a condition to the Specified Subsidiary Guarantors providing a guarantee of the Subordinated Obligations (as defined below) (the “Subsidiary Notes Guarantee”), pursuant to Section 9.06(n) of the Credit Agreement, the Obligors and each Trustee are required to execute 


 




     


     


    

		and deliver to the Agent counterparts of this Agreement (or in the case of an Additional Trustee, a duly executed joinder hereto in accordance with Section 8). Accordingly, (a) the Agent, on behalf of itself, the US Lenders and US Issuing Banks and any other holder of US Obligations and (b) the Canadian Lender, on behalf of itself, and any other holder of Canadian Obligations (each person referenced in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), together with their respective successors and assigns, collectively, the “Senior Parties”), the Obligors and each Trustee, on behalf of itself, the holders of the applicable Notes and any other holder of Subordinated Obligations (together with their respective successors and assigns, collectively, the “Subordinated Parties”), hereby agree as follows: SECTION 1. Subordination. (a) Each Trustee on behalf of itself and the other Subordinated Parties hereby agrees that the Subordinated Obligations shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the (i) Obligations of each Specified Subsidiary Guarantor (whether now existing or from time to time after the date hereof incurred, assumed, created or arising) and (ii) Permitted Guaranteed Bilateral Letter of Credit Facilities with a US Lender or an affiliate thereof (whether now existing or from time to time after the date hereof incurred, assumed, created or arising), including the payment of principal, premium (if any), interest (including, without limitation, interest accruing on or after the filing of any Insolvency Proceeding, whether or not a claim for post-filing interest is allowed or allowable in any such Insolvency Proceeding), fees, charges, expenses, indemnities, reimbursement obligations and all other amounts payable thereunder or in respect thereof, in each case whether or not any of the foregoing is allowed or allowable as a claim in any Insolvency Proceeding (collectively, the “Senior Obligations”). For purposes hereof, “Subordinated Obligations” means all obligations of the Specified Subsidiary Guarantors to the Subordinated Parties (whether now existing or from time to time after the date hereof incurred, assumed, created or arising) under each Indenture, including each Subsidiary Notes Guarantee, including, in each case to the extent constituting obligations thereunder, the payment of principal, premium (if any), interest (including, without limitation, interest accruing on or after the filing of any Insolvency Proceeding pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, whether or not a claim for post-filing interest is allowed or allowable in any such Insolvency Proceeding), fees, charges, expenses, indemnities, reimbursement obligations and all other amounts payable thereunder or in respect thereof, in each case whether or not any of the foregoing is allowed or allowable as a claim in any Insolvency Proceeding. For purposes hereof, “Discharge of the Senior Obligations” shall mean that the Senior Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash and all commitments of the Senior Parties under the Loan Documents have been terminated (other than any inchoate obligations for which no claim has been asserted). (b) The Obligors, each Trustee and the other Subordinated Parties agree that no payment (whether directly, by purchase, redemption or exercise of any right of setoff or otherwise) in respect of the Subordinated Obligations, whether as principal, interest or otherwise, and whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made by or on behalf of any Specified Subsidiary Guarantor or received, accepted or demanded from or on behalf of any Specified Subsidiary Guarantor, directly or indirectly, by or on behalf of any Subordinated Party (other than a payment or distribution in the form of debt or equity securities that are subordinated to the Senior Obligations at least to the same extent as the Subordinated Obligations (“Permitted Junior 2 


 




     


     


    

		Securities”)), until Discharge of the Senior Obligations. In the event that any payment by, or on behalf of, or distribution of the assets or other property of, or any equity securities or debt securities issued by, any Specified Subsidiary Guarantor of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or other property, and whether directly, by purchase, redemption, exercise of any right of setoff or otherwise (other than a payment or distribution in the form of Permitted Junior Securities), including without limitation, in connection with a plan of reorganization or other Insolvency Proceeding with respect to such Specified Subsidiary Guarantor, shall be received by or on behalf of any Subordinated Party or any Affiliate thereof at a time when such payment or distribution is prohibited by this Agreement, such payment or distribution shall be held by any Subordinated Party or its Affiliate in trust (segregated from other property of any Subordinated Party or its Affiliate) for the benefit of, and shall forthwith be paid over to, the Agent, for the benefit of the Senior Parties, until the Discharge of the Senior Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing does not limit the ability of Holdings to make payments of principal, premium (if any), interest, fees, charges, expenses, indemnities, reimbursement obligations and other amounts payable in respect of the Subordinated Obligations. (c) The provisions of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the occurrence of an Insolvency Proceeding (as defined below) against any Obligor or any of its properties or assets until the Discharge of the Senior Obligations. Upon any distribution of the assets of a Specified Subsidiary Guarantor or upon any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of such Specified Subsidiary Guarantor, whether in bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement or receivership proceedings or otherwise, or upon any assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of such Specified Subsidiary Guarantor, or otherwise (any of the foregoing, an “Insolvency Proceeding”): (i) the Senior Parties shall first be entitled to Discharge of the Senior Obligations before the Subordinated Parties shall be entitled to receive any payment or distribution on account of the Subordinated Obligations, whether of principal, interest or otherwise; and (ii) any payment by, or on behalf of, or distribution of the assets of, or any debt or equity securities issued by, such Specified Subsidiary Guarantor of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or other property, to which any Subordinated Party would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section 1 shall be paid or delivered by the Person making such payment or distribution (whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver, custodian or liquidating trustee or otherwise) directly to the Agent, for the benefit of the Senior Parties, until Discharge of the Senior Obligations. In addition, each Trustee, agrees that in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding (i) the Agent, on behalf of the Senior Parties, is irrevocably authorized and empowered (in its own name or in the name of the Subordinated Parties or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, to demand, sue for, collect and receive every payment or distribution referred to in the preceding sentence and give acquittance therefor and to file claims and proofs of claim and take such other action as the Agent may deem necessary or advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interest of the Senior Parties and (ii) each Subordinated Party shall duly and promptly take such action as the Agent, on behalf of the Senior Parties, may request to (A) collect amounts in respect of the applicable Subordinated Obligations for the account of the Senior Parties and to file 3 


 




     


     


    

		appropriate claims or proofs of claim in respect of such Subordinated Obligations, (B) execute and deliver to the Agent such irrevocable powers of attorney, assignments or other instruments as the Agent, on behalf of the Senior Parties, may request in order to enable the Agent to enforce any and all claims with respect to the Subordinated Obligations and (C) collect and receive any and all payments or distributions which may be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to the applicable Subordinated Obligations. A copy of this Agreement may be filed with any court as evidence of the Senior Parties’ right, power and authority hereunder. (d) The Obligors and each Subordinated Party agree that, prior to the Discharge of the Senior Obligations, no Subordinated Party may take any Enforcement Action against any Specified Subsidiary Guarantor without the prior written consent of the Agent (acting upon the direction of the US Required Lenders) and the Canadian Lender, unless: (i) the occurrence of, with respect to such Specified Subsidiary Guarantor, an Insolvency Proceeding; (ii) the holders of Senior Obligations have taken any Enforcement Action in relation to such Specified Subsidiary Guarantor; or (iii) an event of default has occurred under the applicable Indenture in respect of the applicable Subordinated Obligations (a “Subordinated Debt Default”); and (A) the applicable Subordinated Parties have provided notice of the Subordinated Debt Default to the Senior Parties in accordance with Section 11 hereof; (B) a period of not less than (i) 90 days (in the case of a payment default) or (ii) or 179 days (in the case of a non-payment default) has passed from the date the Agent and the Senior Parties were first notified of the Subordinated Debt Default (a “Standstill Period”); and (C) at the end of the Standstill Period, the Subordinated Debt Default is continuing and has not been cured or waived. For the purposes hereof, “Enforcement Action” means, in relation to or with respect to any Specified Subsidiary Guarantor, any action (whether taken by the relevant creditor or creditors or an agent or trustee on its or their behalf) to: (i) demand payment, declare prematurely due and payable or otherwise seek to accelerate payment of all or any part of the Subordinated Obligations, (ii) recover all or any part of the Subordinated Obligations (including, by exercising any rights of set-off or combination of accounts), (iii) exercise or enforce any rights under or pursuant to the Subsidiary Notes Guarantee, (iv) commence legal proceedings against such Specified Subsidiary Guarantor or (v) commence, or take any other steps which could lead to the commencement of, an Insolvency Proceeding concerning such Specified Subsidiary Guarantor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Subordinated Party may in any Insolvency Proceeding concerning any Specified Subsidiary Guarantor: (i) oppose any sale of assets (including bidding procedures relating thereto) with respect to such Specified Subsidiary Guarantor; (ii) propose any debtor in possession financing or oppose any debtor in possession financing or use of cash collateral with respect to such Specified Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case without the consent of the Agent, acting on 4 


 




     


     


    

		behalf of the Senior Parties; (iii) seek appointment of a trustee or examiner with respect to such Specified Subsidiary Guarantor; or (iv) propose, sponsor, vote in favor of, or otherwise support any plan of reorganization or liquidation with respect to such Specified Subsidiary Guarantor unless such plan (a) provides for Discharge of the Senior Obligations on or before the effective date of such plan or (b) the Agent, on behalf of the Senior Parties has provided its prior written consent with respect to such plan. (e) Each Trustee and the other Subordinated Parties waive all rights of subrogation they may have with respect to any Specified Subsidiary Guarantor under the Subordinated Guaranty until the Discharge of the Senior Obligations, and, as between and among such Specified Subsidiary Guarantor, its creditors (other than the Senior Parties) and the Subordinated Parties, no such payment or distribution made to the Senior Parties by virtue of this Agreement that otherwise would have been made to the Subordinated Parties shall be deemed to be a payment by such Specified Subsidiary Guarantor on account of the Subordinated Obligations, it being understood that the provisions of this paragraph (e) are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Subordinated Parties and the Senior Parties. (f) Each Subordinated Party and Specified Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that each Indenture and all other instruments (including the Notes) or records (other than book entry records) now or hereafter creating or evidencing the Subordinated Obligations, whether upon refunding, extension, renewal, refinancing, replacement or otherwise, shall contain the following language: “Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, none of the indebtedness created or evidenced by this instrument or record shall become due or be paid or payable by any [Specified Subsidiary Guarantor], except to the extent permitted under the Subordination Agreement dated as of [DATE], among the Holdings, Nabors Industries Inc., a Delaware corporation, the [Specified Subsidiary Guarantors], the Trustee, HSBC Bank Canada, as Canadian lender, and Citibank, N.A, as administrative agent under the [2018 Revolving Credit Facility], which is attached as Exhibit [ _] to the Indenture, which Subordination Agreement is incorporated herein with the same effect as if fully set forth herein”; or shall otherwise refer to and be subject in all respects to the terms of this Agreement in a manner acceptable to the Agent. (g) For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall affect the rights of payment relative among the Initial Notes and any Additional Notes which shall rank of equal priority in payment as to each other, unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable holders thereof. SECTION 2. Waivers and Consents. (a) Each Trustee and the other Subordinated Parties waive the right to compel that any assets or property of any Specified Subsidiary Guarantor be applied in any particular order to discharge the Senior Obligations. Each Trustee and the other Subordinated Parties expressly waive the right to require the Senior Parties to proceed against any Specified Subsidiary Guarantor, or to pursue any other remedy in any Senior Party’s power which the Subordinated Parties cannot 5 


 




     


     


    

		pursue and which would lighten the Subordinated Parties’ burden, notwithstanding that the failure of any Senior Party to do so may thereby prejudice each Subordinated Party. Each Trustee and the other Subordinated Parties agree that they shall not be discharged, exonerated or have their respective obligations hereunder to the Senior Parties reduced by any Senior Party’s delay in proceeding against or enforcing any remedy against any Specified Subsidiary Guarantor; by any Senior Party releasing any Specified Subsidiary Guarantor from all or any part of the Senior Obligations; or by the discharge of any Specified Subsidiary Guarantor by operation of law or otherwise, with or without the intervention or omission of a Senior Party. Any Senior Party’s vote to accept or reject any plan of reorganization relating to any Specified Subsidiary Guarantor, or any Senior Party’s receipt on account of the Senior Obligations other than Discharge of Senior Obligations, shall not discharge, exonerate, or reduce the obligations of any Subordinated Party hereunder to the Senior Parties. (b) Each Trustee and the other Subordinated Parties waive all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the Senior Parties, even though that election of remedies, including any nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for the Senior Obligations, has impaired the value of each Subordinated Party’s rights of subrogation, reimbursement or contribution against any Specified Subsidiary Guarantor. Each Subordinated Party expressly waives any rights or defenses it may have by reason of protection afforded to any Specified Subsidiary Guarantor with respect to the Senior Obligations pursuant to any anti-deficiency laws or other laws of similar import which limit or discharge the principal debtor’s indebtedness upon judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure of real property or personal property securing the Senior Obligations. (c) Each Trustee and the other Subordinated Parties agree that, without the necessity of any reservation of rights against any of them, and without notice to or further assent by any of them, any demand for payment of any Senior Obligations made by a Senior Party may be rescinded in whole or in part by any Senior Party, and any Senior Obligation may be continued, and the Senior Obligations, or the liability of any Specified Subsidiary Guarantor or any other guarantor or any other party upon or for any part thereof or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered, or released by the Senior Parties, in each case without notice to or further assent by any Subordinated Party (to the extent contemplated by the Indenture), which will remain bound under this Agreement and without impairing, abridging, releasing or affecting the subordination and other agreements provided for herein. (d) Each Trustee and the other Subordinated Parties waive any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Senior Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Senior Parties upon this Agreement. The Senior Obligations, and any of them, shall be deemed conclusively to have been created, contracted or incurred and the consent given to create the obligations of the Specified Subsidiary Guarantors in respect of the Subordinated Obligations in reliance upon this Agreement, and all dealings between the Specified Subsidiary Guarantors and the Senior Parties shall be deemed to have been consummated in reliance upon this Agreement. Each Subordinated Party acknowledges and agrees that the Senior Parties have relied upon the subordination and other agreements provided for herein in consenting to the Subordinated Obligations.
