Amended and Restated Credit Agreement




     This Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is entered into as of January 31, 2011, by and
among The J. M. Smucker Company, an Ohio corporation (the “U.S. Borrower”), Smucker Foods of Canada
Corp., a federally incorporated Canadian corporation (the “Canadian Borrower” and, together with
the U.S. Borrower, individually a “Borrower” and together the “Borrowers”), the direct and indirect
Subsidiaries of the Borrower from time to time party to this Agreement, as Guarantors, the several
financial institutions from time to time party to this Agreement, as Lenders, and Bank of Montreal,
a Canadian chartered bank acting through its Chicago branch, as Administrative Agent as provided
herein. All capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the same meanings herein
as such terms are defined in Section 5.1 hereof.



Preliminary Statement




     The Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are parties to that certain Credit
Agreement dated as of October 29, 2009, as amended (the “Original Credit Agreement”) pursuant to
which the Lenders have agreed to extend certain credit facilities to the Borrowers on the terms and
conditions contained in the Original Credit Agreement. The Borrowers and the Lenders have agreed
to modify certain terms of the Original Credit Agreement and, for the sake of clarity and
convenience, have agreed to amend and restate the Original Credit Agreement in its entirety on the
terms and conditions set forth herein.



     Now, Therefore, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein, and other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
parties hereto hereby agree that the Original Credit Agreement and all schedules and exhibits
thereto are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:


Section 1. The Credit Facilities.




     Section 1.1. Revolving Credit Commitments. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
each Lender, by its acceptance hereof, severally agrees to make a loan or loans (individually a
“Revolving Loan” and collectively for all the Lenders the “Revolving Loans”) in U.S. Dollars to the
U.S. Borrower and in Canadian Dollars to the Canadian Borrower from time to time on a revolving
basis in an aggregate outstanding Original Dollar Amount up to the amount of such Lender’s
Revolving Credit Commitment, subject to any reductions thereof pursuant to the terms hereof, before
the Revolving Credit Termination Date. The sum of the aggregate Original Dollar Amount of
Revolving Loans, the aggregate Original Dollar Amount of Swing Loans, and the aggregate U.S. Dollar
Equivalent of all L/C Obligations at any time outstanding shall not exceed the Revolving Credit
Commitments in effect at such time. Each Borrowing of Revolving Loans shall be made ratably by the
Lenders in proportion to their respective Revolver Percentages. As provided in Section 1.6(a)
hereof, the U.S. Borrower may elect that each Borrowing of Revolving Loans be either U.S. Base
Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans and the Canadian Borrower may elect that each Borrowing of Revolving
Loans be either CAD Base Rate Loans or CAD CDOR Loans. Revolving Loans may be repaid and the principal



 









 




amount thereof reborrowed before the Revolving
Credit Termination Date, subject to the terms and conditions hereof.




     Section 1.2. Increase in Revolving Credit Commitments. The Borrowers may, on any Business Day
prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, increase the aggregate amount of the Revolving
Credit Commitments by delivering a Commitment Amount Increase Request substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit H or in such other form acceptable to the Administrative Agent at least
five (5) Business Days prior to the desired effective date of such increase (the “Commitment Amount
Increase”) identifying an additional Lender (or additional Revolving Credit Commitments for
existing Lender(s)) and the amount of its Revolving Credit Commitment (or additional amount of its
Revolving Credit Commitment(s)); provided, however, that (a) any increase of the aggregate amount
of the Revolving Credit Commitments to an amount in excess of $800,000,000 will require the
approval of the Required Lenders, (b) any increase of the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit
Commitments shall be in an amount not less than $25,000,000, (c) no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing at the time of the request or on the effective date of the Commitment
Amount Increase, (d) all representations and warranties contained in Section 6 hereof shall be true
and correct in all material respects at the effective date of such Commitment Amount Increase, and
(e) the Administrative Agent’s consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) shall be required
for any increase in the amount of an existing Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment or the addition
of a new Lender. The effective date of the Commitment Amount Increase shall be agreed upon by the
Borrowers and the Administrative Agent. Upon the effectiveness thereof, the new Lender(s) (or, if
applicable, existing Lender(s)) shall advance Revolving Loans in an amount sufficient such that
after giving effect to its advance each Lender shall have outstanding its Revolver Percentage of
Revolving Loans. It shall be a condition to such effectiveness that (i) if any Eurodollar Loans or
CAD CDOR Loans are outstanding under the Revolving Credit on the date of such effectiveness, such
Eurodollar Loans or CAD CDOR Loans shall be deemed to be prepaid on such date and the Borrowers
shall pay any amounts owing to the Lenders pursuant to Section 1.12 hereof and (ii) the Borrowers
shall not have terminated any portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to Section 1.13
hereof. The Borrower agrees to pay any reasonable expenses of the Administrative Agent relating to
any Commitment Amount Increase. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Lender shall
have any obligation to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment and no Lender’s Revolving Credit
Commitment shall be increased without its consent thereto, and each Lender may at its option,
unconditionally and without cause, decline to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment.



     Section 1.3. Letters of Credit. (a) General Terms. Subject to the terms and conditions
hereof, as part of the Revolving Credit, each Borrower may request from the L/C Issuer standby and
commercial letters of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) for the account of each Borrower or for
the account of a Borrower and one or more of its Subsidiaries in U.S. Dollars or Canadian Dollars
in the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of an aggregate undrawn face amount up to the L/C Sublimit. Each
Letter of Credit shall be issued by the L/C Issuer, but each Lender shall be obligated to reimburse
the L/C Issuer for such Lender’s Revolver Percentage of the amount of each drawing thereunder to
the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers and, accordingly, each Letter of Credit shall constitute
usage of the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Lender pro rata in an amount equal to its Revolver Percentage of the L/C
Obligations then outstanding.



-2-









 





     (b) Applications. At any time before the Revolving Credit Termination Date, the L/C Issuer
shall, at the request of either Borrower, issue one or more Letters of Credit in U.S. Dollars for
the account of the U.S. Borrower and its Subsidiaries or Canadian Dollars for the account of the
Canadian Borrower and its Subsidiaries, in a form satisfactory to the L/C Issuer, with expiration
dates no later than the earlier of 12 months from the date of issuance (or which are cancelable not
later than 12 months from the date of issuance and each renewal) or thirty (30) days prior to the
Revolving Credit Termination Date, in an aggregate face amount as set forth above, upon the receipt
of an application duly executed by such Borrower and, if such Letter of Credit is for the account
of one of its Subsidiaries, such Subsidiary for the relevant Letter of Credit in the form then
customarily prescribed by the L/C Issuer for the Letter of Credit requested (each an
“Application”). Notwithstanding anything contained in any Application to the contrary: (i) the
Borrowers shall pay fees in connection with each Letter of Credit as set forth in Section 2.1
hereof, (ii) except as otherwise provided in Section 1.9 or Section 1.15 hereof, unless an Event of
Default exists, the L/C Issuer will not call for the funding by any Borrower of any amount under a
Letter of Credit before being presented with a drawing thereunder, and (iii) if the L/C Issuer is
not timely reimbursed for the amount of any drawing under a Letter of Credit on the date such
drawing is paid, the obligation of the Borrower for whose account such Letter of Credit was issued
to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of such drawing shall bear interest (which the relevant
Borrower hereby promises to pay) from and after the date such drawing is paid at a rate per annum
(x) if such Letter of Credit is denominated in U.S. Dollars, equal to the sum of the U.S. Base Rate
from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may
be, and the actual number of days elapsed) plus the Applicable Margin for U.S. Base Rate Loans, and
(y) if such Letter of Credit is denominated in Canadian Dollars, equal to the sum of the CAD Base
Rate from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case
may be, and the actual number of days elapsed) plus the Applicable Margin for CAD Base Rate Loans.
If the L/C Issuer issues any Letter of Credit with an expiration date that is automatically
extended unless the L/C Issuer gives notice that the expiration date will not so extend beyond its
then scheduled expiration date, unless the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders instruct
the L/C Issuer otherwise, the L/C Issuer will give such notice of non-renewal before the time
necessary to prevent such automatic extension if before such required notice date: (i) the
expiration date of such Letter of Credit if so extended would be after the Revolving Credit
Termination Date, (ii) the Revolving Credit Commitments have been terminated, or (iii) an Event of
Default exists and either the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (with notice to the
Administrative Agent) have given the L/C Issuer instructions not to so permit the extension of the
expiration date of such Letter of Credit. The L/C Issuer agrees to issue amendments to the
Letter(s) of Credit increasing the amount, or extending the expiration date, thereof at the request
of the Borrower for whose account such Letter of Credit was issued subject to the conditions of
Section 7 hereof and the other terms of this Section 1.3. Notwithstanding anything contained
herein to the contrary, the L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to issue, extend or amend any
Letter of Credit if a default of any Lender’s obligations to fund under Section 1.3(c) exists or
any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless the L/C Issuer has entered into
arrangements with the Borrowers or such Lender satisfactory to the L/C Issuer to eliminate the L/C
Issuer’s risk with respect to such Lender.

     (c) The Reimbursement Obligations. Subject to Section 1.3(b) hereof, the obligation of the
Borrowers to reimburse the L/C Issuer for all drawings under a Letter of Credit (a “Reimbursement
Obligation") shall be governed by the Application related to such Letter of Credit, except that
reimbursement shall be made by no later than 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the date when each drawing
is to be paid if the Borrower has been informed of such drawing by the L/C Issuer on or before
11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date when such drawing is to be paid or, if notice of such drawing
is given to the Borrower for whose account such Letter of Credit was issued after 11:00 a.m.
(Chicago time) on the date when such drawing is to be paid, by no later than 1:00 p.m. (Chicago
time) on the following Business Day, in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s
principal office in Chicago, Illinois, or such other office as the Administrative Agent may
designate in writing to the Borrower (who shall thereafter cause to be distributed to the L/C
Issuer such amount(s) in like funds). If a Borrower does not make any such reimbursement payment
on the date due and the Participating Lenders fund their participations therein in the manner set
forth in Section 1.3(e) below, then all payments thereafter received by the Administrative Agent in
discharge of any of the relevant Reimbursement Obligations shall be distributed in accordance with
Section 1.3(e) below.



     (d) Obligations Absolute. Each Borrower’s obligation to reimburse L/C Obligations as provided
in subsection (c) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be
performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the relevant Application
under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or
enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii)
any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or
invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii)
payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other
document that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other
event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but
for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a
right of setoff against, any Borrower’s obligations hereunder. None of the Administrative Agent,
the Lenders, or the L/C Issuer shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in
connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make
any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding
sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any
draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any
document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or
any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the L/C Issuer; provided that the
foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the L/C Issuer from liability to the relevant Borrower
to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of
which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by any
Borrower that are caused by the L/C Issuer’s failure to exercise care when determining whether
drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The
parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on
the part of the L/C Issuer (as finally determined by a court
of competent jurisdiction), the L/C Issuer shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such
determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the
parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in



-4-









 




substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole
discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further
investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and
make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of
such Letter of Credit.




     (e) The Participating Interests. Each Lender (other than the Lender acting as L/C Issuer in
issuing the relevant Letter of Credit), by its acceptance hereof, severally agrees to purchase from
the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer hereby agrees to sell to each such Lender (a “Participating
Lender"), an undivided percentage participating interest (a “Participating Interest”), to the
extent of its Revolver Percentage, in each Letter of Credit issued by, and each Reimbursement
Obligation owed to, the L/C Issuer. Upon any failure by a Borrower to pay any Reimbursement
Obligation at the time required on the date the related drawing is to be paid, as set forth in
Section 1.3(c) above, or if the L/C Issuer is required at any time to return to a Borrower or to a
trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other Person any portion of any payment of any
Reimbursement Obligation, each Participating Lender shall, not later than the Business Day it
receives a certificate in the form of Exhibit A hereto from the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) to such effect, if such certificate is received before 2:00 p.m. (Chicago
time), or not later than 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time) the following Business Day, if such certificate
is received after such time, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer an
amount equal to such Participating Lender’s Revolver Percentage of such unpaid or recaptured
Reimbursement Obligation together with interest on such amount accrued from the date the related
payment was made by the L/C Issuer to the date of such payment by such Participating Lender at a
rate per annum equal to: (i) from the date the related payment was made by the L/C Issuer to the
date two (2) Business Days after payment by such Participating Lender is due hereunder, (x) if such
Letter of Credit is denominated in U.S. Dollars, the Federal Funds Rate for each such day, and (y)
if such Letter of Credit is denominated in Canadian Dollars, the cost to the Administrative Agent
of funding such amount, and (ii) from the date two (2) Business Days after the date such payment is
due from such Participating Lender to the date such payment is made by such Participating Lender,
(x) if such Letter of Credit is denominated in U.S. Dollars, the U.S. Base Rate in effect for each
such day, and (y) if such Letter of Credit is denominated in Canadian Dollars, the CAD Base Rate in
effect for each such day. Each such Participating Lender shall thereafter be entitled to receive
its Revolver Percentage of each payment received in respect of the relevant Reimbursement
Obligation and of interest paid thereon, with the L/C Issuer retaining its Revolver Percentage
thereof as a Lender hereunder. The several obligations of the Participating Lenders to the L/C
Issuer under this Section 1.3 shall be absolute, irrevocable, and unconditional under any and all
circumstances whatsoever and shall not be subject to any set-off, counterclaim or defense to
payment which any Participating Lender may have or have had against any Borrower, the L/C Issuer,
the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person whatsoever. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, such obligations shall not be affected by any Default or Event of
Default or by any reduction or termination of any Revolving Credit Commitment of any Lender, and
each payment by a Participating Lender under this Section 1.3 shall be made without any offset, abatement,
withholding or reduction whatsoever.



-5-









 





     (f) Indemnification. The Participating Lenders shall, to the extent of their respective
Revolver Percentages, indemnify the L/C Issuer (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers)
against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand,
action, loss or liability (except such as result from such L/C Issuer’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct) that the L/C Issuer may suffer or incur in connection with any Letter of Credit issued
by it. The obligations of the Participating Lenders under this Section 1.3(f) and all other parts
of this Section 1.3 shall survive termination of this Agreement and of all Applications, Letters of
Credit, and all drafts and other documents presented in connection with drawings thereunder.



     (g) Manner of Requesting a Letter of Credit. Each Borrower shall provide at least three (3)
Business Days’ advance written notice to the Administrative Agent of each request for the issuance
of a Letter of Credit for its account, such notice in each case to be accompanied by an Application
for such Letter of Credit properly completed and executed by such Borrower and, in the case of an
extension or amendment or an increase in the amount of a Letter of Credit, a written request
therefor, in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer, in each case,
together with the fees called for by this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify the L/C Issuer of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of each such notice (and the L/C Issuer
shall be entitled to assume that the conditions precedent to any such issuance, extension,
amendment or increase have been satisfied unless notified to the contrary by the Administrative
Agent or the Required Lenders) and the L/C Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders of the issuance of the Letter of Credit so requested.



     (h) Replacement of the L/C Issuer. The L/C Issuer may be replaced at any time by written
agreement among the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the successor L/C Issuer. The
Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the L/C Issuer. At the
time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued
for the account of the replaced L/C Issuer. From and after the effective date of any such
replacement (i) the successor L/C Issuer shall have all the rights and obligations of the L/C
Issuer under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii)
references herein to the term “L/C Issuer “ shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any
previous L/C Issuer, or to such successor and all previous L/C Issuers, as the context shall
require. After the replacement of a L/C Issuer hereunder, the replaced L/C Issuer shall remain a
party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of a L/C Issuer under this
Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not
be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.



     Section 1.4. Applicable Interest Rates. (a) U.S. Base Rate Loans. Each U.S. Base Rate Loan
made or maintained by a Lender shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366
days, as the case may be, and the actual days elapsed) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from
the date such Loan is advanced, or created by conversion from a Eurodollar Loan, until maturity
(whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable
Margin plus the U.S. Base Rate from time to time in effect, payable by the relevant Borrower on each Interest
Payment Date and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise), provided that interest shall
not accrue on any Loan (or portion thereof) for the day such Loan (or portion) is paid as provided
in Section 3.1.

     “U.S. Base Rate” means, for any day, the rate per annum equal to the greatest of: (a) the
rate of interest announced or otherwise established by the Administrative Agent from time to time
as its prime commercial rate, or its equivalent, for U.S. Dollar loans to borrowers located in the

on the immediately preceding Business Day) by two or more Federal funds brokers selected by the
Administrative Agent for sale to the Administrative Agent at face value of Federal funds in the
secondary market in an amount equal or comparable to the principal amount for which such rate is
being determined, plus (ii) 1/2 of 1%, and (c) the LIBOR Quoted Rate for such day plus 1.00%. As
used herein, the term “LIBOR Quoted Rate” means, for any day, the rate per annum equal to the

(1) minus the Eurodollar Reserve Percentage.



     (b) Eurodollar Loans. Each Eurodollar Loan made or maintained by a Lender shall bear interest
during each Interest Period it is outstanding (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and
actual days elapsed) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is advanced or
continued, or created by conversion from a U.S. Base Rate Loan, until maturity (whether by
acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the
Adjusted LIBOR applicable for such Interest Period, payable by the relevant Borrower on each
Interest Payment Date and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise), provided that
interest shall not accrue on any Loan (or portion thereof) for the day such Loan (or portion) is
paid as provided in Section 3.1.



     “Adjusted LIBOR” means, for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, a rate per annum determined in
accordance with the following formula:



	 	 	 	 	 

	Adjusted LIBOR
	 	=
	 	LIBOR
	 
	 	 	 	 
	 
	 	 	 	1 - Eurodollar Reserve Percentage






     “Eurodollar Reserve Percentage” means the maximum reserve percentage, expressed as a decimal,
at which reserves (including, without limitation, any emergency, marginal, special, and
supplemental reserves) are imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any
successor) on “eurocurrency liabilities”, as defined in such Board’s Regulation


D (or any successor thereto), subject to any amendments of such reserve requirement by such
Board or its successor, taking into account any transitional adjustments thereto. For purposes of
this definition, the relevant Loans shall be deemed to be “eurocurrency liabilities” as defined in
Regulation D without benefit or credit for any prorations, exemptions or offsets




-7-









 







under Regulation D. The Eurodollar Reserve Percentage shall be adjusted automatically on and as of the
effective date of any change in any such reserve percentage.




     “LIBOR” means, for an Interest Period for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, (a) the LIBOR Index
Rate for such Interest Period, if such rate is available, and (b) if the LIBOR Index Rate cannot be
determined, the arithmetic average of the rates of interest per annum (rounded upwards, if
necessary, to the nearest 1/100 of 1%) at which deposits in U.S. Dollars in immediately available
funds are offered to the Administrative Agent at 11:00 a.m. (London, England time) two (2) Business
Days before the beginning of such Interest Period by three (3) or more major banks in the interbank
eurodollar market selected by the Administrative Agent for delivery on the first day of and for a
period equal to such Interest Period and in an amount equal or comparable to the principal amount
of the Eurodollar Loan scheduled to be made as part of such Borrowing.



     “LIBOR Index Rate” means, for any Interest Period, the rate per annum (rounded upwards, if
necessary, to the next higher one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point) for deposits in U.S.
Dollars for a period equal to such Interest Period, which appears on the LIBOR01 Page as of 11:00
a.m. (London, England time) on the day two (2) Business Days before the commencement of such
Interest Period.



     “LIBOR01 Page” means the display designated as “LIBOR01 Page” on the Reuters Service (or such
other page as may replace the LIBOR01 Page on that service or such other service as may be
nominated by the British Bankers’ Association as the information vendor for the purpose of
displaying British Bankers’ Association Interest Settlement Rates for U.S. Dollar deposits).



     (c) CAD Base Rate Loans. Each CAD Base Rate Loan made or maintained by a Lender shall bear
interest (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual
days elapsed) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is advanced, or
created by conversion from a CAD CDOR, until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a
rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the CAD Base Rate from time to time
in effect, payable by the relevant Borrower on each Interest Payment Date and at maturity (whether
by acceleration or otherwise), provided that interest shall not accrue on any Loan (or portion
thereof) for the day such Loan (or portion) is paid as provided in Section 3.1.



     “CAD Base Rate” means, for any day, the greater of (i) the per annum rate of interest
announced from time to time by the Administrative Agent as its reference rate then in effect for
determining rates of interest on Canadian Dollar Loans to its customers in Canada and designated as
its prime rate; and (ii) the 30 day CAD Fixed Rate plus one percent (1%) per annum. Each change in
the CAD Base Rate shall be effective immediately from and after such change.



     (d) CAD CDOR Loans. Each CAD CDOR Loan made or maintained by a Lender shall bear interest
during each Interest Period it is outstanding (computed on the basis of a year of 365/366 days and
actual days elapsed) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such



-8-









 




Loan is advanced or continued, or created by conversion from a CAD Base Rate Loan, until maturity (whether by
acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the
CAD Fixed Rate applicable for such Interest Period, payable by the relevant Borrower on each
Interest Payment Date and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise), provided that
interest shall not accrue on any Loan (or portion thereof) for the day such Loan (or portion) is
paid as provided in Section 3.1.




     “CAD Fixed Rate” shall mean, with respect to a CAD CDOR Loan, for any Interest Period, the
rate per annum determined by the Administrative Agent by reference to the average of the rates
displayed on the “Reuters Screen CDOR Page” (as defined in the International Swap Dealer
Association, Inc. definitions, as amended from time to time), or such other page as may replace
such page on such screen for the purpose of displaying Canadian interbank bid rates for Canadian
Dollar bankers’ acceptances) applicable to Canadian Dollar bankers’ acceptances (on a three hundred
sixty-five (365) day basis) with a term comparable to such Interest Period as of 10:00 A.M.
(Eastern time) on the first day of such Interest Period (as adjusted by the Administrative Agent
after 10:00 A.M. (Eastern time) to reflect any error in a posted rate or in the posted average
annual rate of interest). If, for any reason, the rates on the Reuters Screen CDOR Page are
unavailable, then CAD Fixed Rate means the rate of interest determined by the Administrative Agent
that is equal to the rate (rounded upwards to the nearest basis point) quoted by the Canadian
Reference Bank as its discount rate for purchase of Canadian Dollar bankers’ acceptances in an
amount substantially equal to such CAD CDOR Loan with a term comparable to such Interest Period as
of 10:00 A.M. (Eastern time). No adjustment shall be made to account for the difference between
the number of days in a year on which the rates referred to in this definition are based and the
number of days in a year on the basis of which interest is calculated in this Agreement.



     (e) Rate Determinations. The Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate
applicable to the Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations hereunder based on the foregoing, and its
determination thereof shall be conclusive and binding except in the case of manifest error. The
Original Dollar Amount of each Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars shall be determined or
redetermined, as applicable, (i) in the case of CAD CDOR Loans, effective as of the first day of
each Interest Period applicable to such Loan, and (ii) in the case of CAD Base Rate Loans,
effective as of the last day of each calendar month.



     (f) Interest Act (Canada). For purposes of disclosure pursuant to the Interest Act (Canada),
the annual rates of interest or fees to which the rates of interest or fees provided in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and stated herein or therein, as applicable, to be computed
on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year or any other period of time less than a
calendar year) are equivalent to the rates so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in
the applicable calendar year and divided by three hundred sixty (360) or such other period of time,
respectively.



     (g) Adjustments. If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial
statements of the U.S. Borrower or for any other reason, the U.S. Borrower or the Lenders determine
that (i) the Total Leverage Ratio as calculated by the U.S. Borrower as of any applicable date was
inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio would



-9-









 




have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the U.S. Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay
to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, promptly on demand by the
Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief
with respect to the U.S. Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and
without further action by the Administrative Agent or any Lender), an amount equal to the excess of
the amount of interest that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest
actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, as the case may be, under Section 1.10 or under Section 9.




     Section 1.5. Minimum Borrowing Amounts; Maximum Eurodollar Loans. Each Borrowing of U.S. Base
Rate Loans shall be in an amount not less than $1,000,000 or such greater amount which is an
integral multiple of $100,000. Each Borrowing of CAD Base Rate Loans shall be in an amount not
less than CAD$1,000,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of CAD$100,000. Each
Borrowing of CAD CDOR Loans shall be in an amount not less than CAD$1,000,000 or such greater
amount which is an integral multiple of $1,000,000. Each Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans advanced,
continued or converted shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or such greater amount which is an
integral multiple of $1,000,000. Without the Administrative Agent’s consent, there shall not be
more than ten (10) Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans outstanding hereunder and ten (10) Borrowings of
CAD CDOR Loans.



     Section 1.6. Manner of Borrowing Loans and Designating Applicable Interest Rates. (a) Notice
to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower requesting a Borrowing of Loans shall give notice to the
Administrative Agent by no later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time): (i) at least three (3) Business
Days before the date on which such Borrower requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of
Eurodollar Loans (ii) on the date such Borrower requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of U.S.
Base Rate Loans or CAD Base Rate Loans, and (iii) at least three (3) Business Days before the date
on which such Borrower requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of CAD CDOR Loans. The Loans
included in each Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the type of rate specified in such
notice of a new Borrowing. Thereafter, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the relevant
Borrower may from time to time elect to change or continue the type of interest rate borne by each
Borrowing obtained by it hereunder or, subject to the minimum amount requirement for each
outstanding Borrowing set forth in Section 1.5 hereof, a portion thereof, as follows: (i) if such
Borrowing is of Eurodollar Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, such
Borrower may continue part or all of such Borrowing as Eurodollar Loans or convert part or all of
such Borrowing into U.S. Base Rate Loans, (ii) if such Borrowing is of U.S. Base Rate Loans, on any
Business Day, such Borrower may convert all or part of such Borrowing into Eurodollar Loans for an
Interest Period or Interest Periods specified by such Borrower, (iii) if such Borrowing is of CAD
Base Rate Loans, on any Business Day, such Borrower may convert all or part of such Borrowing into
CAD CDOR Loans for an Interest Period or Interest Periods specified by such Borrower, and (iv) if such Borrowing
is of CAD CDOR Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, such Borrower may
continue part or all of such Borrowing as CAD CDOR Loans or convert part or all of such Borrowing
into CAD Base Rate Loans. The Borrowers shall give all such notices requesting the advance,
continuation or conversion of a Borrowing to the Administrative Agent by telephone,




-10-











 




telecopy, or other telecommunication device acceptable to the Administrative Agent (which
notice shall be irrevocable once given and, if by telephone, shall be promptly confirmed in
writing), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (Notice of Borrowing) or Exhibit C
(Notice of Continuation/Conversion), as applicable, or in such other form acceptable to the
Administrative Agent. Notice of the continuation of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans for an
additional Interest Period or of the conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of U.S. Base Rate
Loans into Eurodollar Loans must be given by no later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least three
(3) Business Days before the date of the requested continuation or conversion. Notice of the
continuation of a Borrowing of CAD CDOR Loans for an additional Interest Period or of the
conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of CAD Base Rate Loans into CAD CDOR Loans must be given
by no later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least three (3) Business Days before the date of the
requested continuation or conversion. All such notices concerning the advance, continuation or
conversion of a Borrowing shall specify the date of the requested advance, continuation or
conversion of a Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of the requested Borrowing to
be advanced, continued or converted, the type of Loans to comprise such new, continued or converted
Borrowing and, if such Borrowing is to be comprised of Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period
applicable thereto. Upon written notice to the Borrowers by the Administrative Agent or the
Required Lenders (or, in the case of an Event of Default under Section 9.1(j) or 9.1(k) hereof with
respect to any Borrower, without notice), no Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans or CAD CDOR Loans shall
be advanced, continued, or created by conversion if any Event of Default then exists. Each
Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may rely on any such telephonic, telecopy, or other
telecommunication notice given by any person the Administrative Agent in good faith believes is an
Authorized Representative without the necessity of independent investigation, and in the event any
such notice by telephone conflicts with any written confirmation such telephonic notice shall
govern if the Administrative Agent has acted in good faith reliance thereon.




     (b) Notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic, telecopy or
other telecommunication notice to each Lender of any notice from a Borrower received pursuant to
Section 1.6(a) above and, if such notice requests the Lenders to make Eurodollar Loans, the
Administrative Agent shall give notice to such Borrower and each Lender by like means of the
interest rate applicable thereto promptly after the Administrative Agent has made such
determination and, if such Borrowing is denominated in Canadian Dollars, shall give notice by such
means to the Borrowers and each Lender of the Original Dollar Amount thereof.



     (c) Borrower’s Failure to Notify. If the U.S. Borrower fails to give notice pursuant to
Section 1.6(a) above of the continuation or conversion of any outstanding principal amount of a
Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans before the last day of its then current Interest Period within the
period required by Section 1.6(a) and such Borrowing is not prepaid in accordance with Section
1.9(a), such Borrowing shall automatically be converted into a Borrowing of U.S. Base Rate Loans.
If the Canadian Borrower fails to give notice pursuant to Section 1.6(a) above of the continuation
or conversion of any outstanding principal amount of a Borrowing of CAD CDOR Loans before the last
day of its then current Interest Period within the period required by Section 1.6(a) and such
Borrowing is not prepaid in accordance with Section 1.9(a), such Borrowing shall automatically be
converted into a Borrowing of CAD Base Rate Loans. In the event a
Borrower fails to give notice pursuant to Section 1.6(a) above of a Borrowing equal to



-11-









 




the amount
of a Reimbursement Obligation owed by it and has not notified the Administrative Agent by 12:00
noon (Chicago time) on the day such Reimbursement Obligation becomes due that it intends to repay
such Reimbursement Obligation through funds not borrowed under this Agreement, such Borrower shall
be deemed to have requested (i) in the case of the U.S. Borrower, a Borrowing of U.S. Base Rate
Loans under the Revolving Credit (or, at the option of the Swing Line Lender, under the Swing Line)
on such day in the amount of the Reimbursement Obligation then due, which Borrowing shall be
applied to pay the Reimbursement Obligation then due, and (ii) in the case of the Canadian
Borrower, a Borrowing of CAD Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit (or, at the option of the
Swing Line Lender, under the Swing Line) on such day in the amount of the Reimbursement Obligation
then due.




     (d) Disbursement of Loans. Not later than 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the date of any
requested advance of a new Borrowing, subject to Section 7 hereof, each Lender shall make available
its Loan comprising part of such Borrowing in funds immediately available at the principal office
of the Administrative Agent in Chicago, Illinois (or at such other location as the Administrative
Agent shall designate). The Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of each new Borrowing
available to the relevant Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s principal office in Chicago,
Illinois in the case of Borrowings denominated in U.S. Dollars or Toronto, Ontario, Canada in the
case of Borrowings denominated in Canadian Dollars (or in each case at such other location as the
Administrative Agent shall designate), by depositing or wire transferring such proceeds to the
credit of such Borrower’s Designated Disbursement Account or as the relevant Borrower and the
Administrative Agent may otherwise agree.



     (e) Administrative Agent Reliance on Lender Funding. Unless the Administrative Agent shall
have been notified by a Lender prior to (or, in the case of a Borrowing of U.S. Base Rate Loans, by
1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on) the date on which such Lender is scheduled to make payment to the
Administrative Agent of the proceeds of a Loan (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) that
such Lender does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such
Lender has made such payment when due and the Administrative Agent may in reliance upon such
assumption (but shall not be required to) make available to the relevant Borrower the proceeds of
the Loan to be made by such Lender and, if any Lender has not in fact made such payment to the
Administrative Agent, such Lender shall, on demand, pay to the Administrative Agent the amount made
available to the relevant Borrower attributable to such Lender together with interest thereon in
respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was made available to the
relevant Borrower and ending on (but excluding) the date such Lender pays such amount to the
Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to: (i) from the date the related advance was made
by the Administrative Agent to the date two (2) Business Days after payment by such Lender is due
hereunder, the Federal Funds Rate for each such day or, in the case of a Loan denominated in
Canadian Dollars, the cost to the Administrative Agent of funding the amount it advanced to fund
such Lender’s Loan, as determined by the Administrative Agent, and (ii) from the date two (2)
Business Days after the date such payment is due from such Lender to the date such payment is made
by such Lender, the U.S. Base Rate in effect for each such day or, in the case of a Loan
denominated in Canadian Dollars, the CAD Base Rate in effect for each such day. If such amount is
not received from such Lender by the Administrative Agent immediately upon demand, the Borrower
that received the proceeds of such Loan will, on demand, repay to the Administrative Agent the proceeds of



-12-









 




the
Loan attributable to such Lender with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the interest
rate applicable to the relevant Loan, but without such payment being considered a payment or
prepayment of a Loan under Section 1.12 hereof so that such Borrower will have no liability under
such Section with respect to such payment.




     Section 1.7. Swing Loans. (a) Generally. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, as part
of the Revolving Credit, the Swing Line Lender may, in its discretion, make loans in U.S. Dollars
to the U.S. Borrower under the Swing Line (individually a “Swing Loan” and collectively the “Swing
Loans”) which shall not at any time outstanding exceed the Swing Line Sublimit. Swing Loans may be
availed of from time to time and borrowings thereunder may be repaid and used again during the
period ending on the Revolving Credit Termination Date. Each Swing Loan shall be in a minimum
amount of $250,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of $50,000.



     (b) Interest on Swing Loans. Each Swing Loan shall bear interest until maturity (whether by
acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the U.S. Base Rate plus the
Applicable Margin for U.S. Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit as from time to time in
effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual
number of days elapsed). Interest on each Swing Loan shall be due and payable by the U.S. Borrower
on each Interest Payment Date and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise).



     (c) Requests for Swing Loans. The U.S. Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent prior
notice (which may be written or oral) no later than 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the date upon which
such Borrower requests that any Swing Loan be made to it, of the amount and date of such Swing
Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the proceeds of each Swing Loan extended to a
Borrower shall be deposited or otherwise wire transferred to the U.S. Borrower’s Designated
Disbursement Account or as the U.S. Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and the Swing Line Lender
may otherwise agree. Anything contained in the foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, the
undertaking of the Swing Line Lender to make Swing Loans shall be subject to all of the terms and
conditions of this Agreement (provided that the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to assume that
the conditions precedent to an advance of any Swing Loan have been satisfied unless notified to the
contrary by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders).



     (d) Refunding Loans. In its sole and absolute discretion, the Swing Line Lender may at any
time, on behalf of the U.S. Borrower (and the U.S. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing
Line Lender to act on its behalf for such purpose) and with notice to the U.S. Borrower and the
Administrative Agent, request each Lender to make a Revolving Loan in the form of a U.S. Base Rate
Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolver Percentage of the amount of the Swing Loans
outstanding on the date such notice is given. Unless an Event of Default described in Section
9.1(j) or 9.1(k) exists with respect to the U.S. Borrower, regardless of the existence of any other
Event of Default, each Lender shall make the proceeds of its requested Revolving Loan available to
the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds
in U.S. Dollars, at the Administrative Agent’s office
in Chicago, Illinois (or such other location designated by the Administrative Agent), before



-13-









 




12:00 Noon (Chicago time) on the Business Day following the day such notice is given. The Administrative
Agent shall promptly remit the proceeds of such Borrowing to the Swing Line Lender to repay the
outstanding Swing Loans.




     (e) Participations. If any Lender refuses or otherwise fails to make a Revolving Loan when
requested by the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 1.7(d) above (because an Event of Default
described in Section 9.1(j) or 9.1(k) exists with respect to the U.S. Borrower or otherwise), such
Lender will, by the time and in the manner such Revolving Loan was to have been funded to the Swing
Line Lender, purchase from the Swing Line Lender an undivided participating interest in the
outstanding Swing Loans in an amount equal to its Revolver Percentage of the aggregate principal
amount of Swing Loans that were to have been repaid with such Revolving Loans. Each Lender that so
purchases a participation in a Swing Loan shall thereafter be entitled to receive its Revolver
Percentage of each payment of principal received on the Swing Loan and of interest received thereon
accruing from the date such Lender funded to the Swing Line Lender its participation in such Loan.
The several obligations of the Lenders under this Section shall be absolute, irrevocable, and
unconditional under any and all circumstances whatsoever and shall not be subject to any set-off,
counterclaim or defense to payment which any Lender may have or have had against any Borrower, any
other Lender, or any other Person whatsoever. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
such obligations shall not be affected by any Default or Event of Default or by any reduction or
termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments of any Lender, and each payment made by a Lender
under this Section shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding, or reduction
whatsoever.



     Section 1.8. Maturity of Loans. (a) Scheduled Payments of Revolving Loans. Each Revolving
Loan, both for principal and interest not sooner paid, shall mature and be due and payable by the
Borrower that borrowed such Loan on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.



     (b) Swing Loans. Each Swing Loan, both for principal and interest not sooner paid, shall
mature and be due and payable by the U.S. Borrower on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.



     Section 1.9. Prepayments. (a) Optional. Any Borrower may prepay in whole or in part (but, if
in part, then: (i) if such Borrowing is of U.S. Base Rate Loans, in an amount not less than
$1,000,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of $100,000, (ii) if such Borrowing
is of Eurodollar Loans, in an amount not less than $5,000,000 or such greater amount which is an
integral multiple of $1,000,000, (iii) if such Borrowing is of CAD Base Rate Loans, in Canadian
Dollars in an amount not less than CAD$1,000,000 or such greater amount which is an integral
multiple of CAD$100,000, (iv) if such Borrowing is of CAD CDOR Loans, in Canadian Dollars in an
amount not less than CAD$5,000,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of
CAD$1,000,000, and (v) in each case, in an amount such that the minimum amount required for a
Borrowing pursuant to Section 1.5 and 1.7 hereof remains outstanding) any Borrowing of Eurodollar
Loans on the last day of the Interest Period therefor and at any other time upon (A) three (3)
Business Days prior notice by such Borrower to the Administrative Agent, (B) in the case of a
Borrowing of
U.S. Base Rate Loans, notice delivered by such Borrower to the Administrative Agent no later than
10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date of prepayment, (C) in the case of any Borrowing of CAD CDOR
Loans on the last day of the



-14-









 




Interest Period therefor and at any other time upon three (3) Business
Days prior notice by such Borrower to the Administrative Agent, or (D) in the case of a Borrowing
of CAD Base Rate Loans, notice delivered by such Borrower to the Administrative Agent no later than
10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date of prepayment (or, in any case of (A) through (D) above, such
shorter period of time then agreed to by the Administrative Agent), such prepayment to be made by
the payment of the principal amount to be prepaid and, in the case of any Eurodollar Loans, CAD
CDOR Loans or Swing Loans, accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for prepayment plus any
amounts due the Lenders under Section 1.12 hereof.




     (b) Mandatory. (i) Each Borrower shall, on each date the Revolving Credit Commitments are
reduced pursuant to Section 1.13 hereof, prepay its own Revolving Loans, Swing Loans, and, if
necessary, prefund its own L/C Obligations by the aggregate amount, if any, necessary to reduce the
sum of the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans, Swing Loans, and L/C Obligations then
outstanding to the amount to which the Revolving Credit Commitments have been so reduced.



     (ii) If at any time (A) for any reason other than fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the
sum of the aggregate Original Dollar Amount of Revolving Loans, the aggregate Original Dollar
Amount of Swing Loans, and the aggregate U.S. Dollar Equivalent of all L/C Obligations then
outstanding shall be in excess of the Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect, and (B) solely
as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the sum of the aggregate Original Dollar
Amount of Revolving Loans, the aggregate Original Dollar Amount of Swing Loans, and the aggregate
U.S. Dollar Equivalent of all L/C Obligations then outstanding shall be in excess of 105% of the
Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect, each Borrower shall (1) immediately without notice or
demand in the circumstances described in clause (A) and (2) within 3 Business Days after notice
from the Administrative Agent in the circumstances described in clause (B), pay over the amounts
which in aggregate equal such excess to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders as
and for a mandatory prepayment on such Obligations, with each such prepayment first to be applied
to each such Borrower’s applicable Revolving Loans and Swing Loans until paid in full with any
remaining balance to be held by the Administrative Agent in the Collateral Account as security for
each Borrower’s Obligations owing with respect to such Borrower’s Letters of Credit.



     (iii) Unless the U.S. Borrower prepaying a Loan otherwise directs, prepayments of Loans under
this Section 1.9(b) in U.S. Dollars shall be applied first to Borrowings of U.S. Base Rate Loans
made to such Borrower until payment in full thereof with any balance applied to Borrowings of
Eurodollar Loans made to such Borrower in the order in which their Interest Periods expire, and
prepayments by the Canadian Borrower of Loans under this Section 1.9(b) in Canadian Dollars shall
be applied first to Borrowings of CAD Base Rate Loans made to such Borrower until payment in full
thereof with any balance applied to Borrowings of CAD CDOR Loans made to such Borrower in the order
in which their Interest Periods expire. Each prepayment of Loans under this Section 1.9(b) shall
be made by the payment of the principal amount to be prepaid and, in the case of any Eurodollar
Loans, CAD CDOR Loans or Swing
Loans, accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment together with any amounts due the Lenders
under Section 1.12 hereof. Each prefunding of L/C Obligations shall be made in accordance with
Section 9.4 hereof.



-15-









 





     (c) Any amount of Revolving Loans and Swing Loans paid or prepaid before the Revolving Credit
Termination Date may, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, be borrowed, repaid
and borrowed again.



     Section 1.10. Default Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, while
any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, each Borrower shall pay, after written notice
from the Administrative Agent, interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the
extent permitted by law) on the principal amount of all Loans and Reimbursement Obligations owed by
it under the Loan Documents, and letter of credit fees from the date of such Event of Default or
acceleration at a rate per annum equal to:




     (a) for any U.S. Base Rate Loan or any Swing Loan bearing interest based on the U.S.
Base Rate, the sum of 2.0% plus the Applicable Margin plus the U.S. Base Rate from time to
time in effect;




     (b) for any Eurodollar Loan, the sum of 2.0% plus the rate of interest in effect
thereon at the time of such default until the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto
and, thereafter, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2.0% plus the Applicable Margin for
U.S. Base Rate Loans plus the U.S. Base Rate from time to time in effect;




     (c) for any Reimbursement Obligation, the sum of 2.0% plus the amounts due under
Section 1.3 with respect to such Reimbursement Obligation;




     (d) for any Letter of Credit, the sum of 2.0% plus the letter of credit fee due under
Section 2.1 with respect to such Letter of Credit;




     (e) for any CAD Base Rate Loan or any Swing Loan bearing interest based on the CAD Base
Rate, the sum of 2% plus the Applicable Margin plus the CAD Base Rate from time to time in
effect; and




     (f) for any CAD CDOR Loan, the sum of 2.0% plus the rate of interest in effect thereon
at the time of such default until the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and,
thereafter, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2.0% plus the Applicable Margin for CAD
Base Rate Loans plus the CAD Base Rate from time to time in effect;


provided, however, that in the absence of acceleration or a Principal Payment Default (as defined
below), any interest adjustments pursuant to this Section shall only be made at the election of the
Required Lenders, with written notice to the Borrowers. If any principal amount of any Loan or
Reimbursement Obligation is not paid when due (a “Principal Payment Default”) such principal amount
shall bear interest at the rates specified in subsections (a) through (f) above until paid in full.
While any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, interest as adjusted under this
Section 1.10 shall be paid on demand of the Administrative Agent at the request or with the consent
of the Required Lenders.




     Section 1.11. Evidence of Indebtedness. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its
usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to



-16-









 







such Lender
resulting from each Loan made to such Borrower by such Lender from time to time, including the
amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.



     (b) The Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the
amount of each Loan made hereunder, the type thereof and the Interest Period with respect thereto,
(ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each
Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative
Agent hereunder from each Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.



     (c) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b) above
shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded;
provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such
accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Borrower to
repay its Obligations in accordance with their terms.



     (d) Any Lender may request that its Loans to each Borrower be evidenced by a promissory note
or notes of such Borrower in the forms of Exhibit D-1 (in the case of its Revolving Loans and
referred to herein as a “Revolving Note”), or D-2 (in the case of its Swing Loans and referred to
herein as a “Swing Note”), as applicable (the Revolving Notes, and Swing Note being hereinafter
referred to collectively as the “Notes” and individually as a “Note”). In such event, each
Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender or its
registered assigns. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note or Notes and interest thereon
shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 13.12) be represented by one
or more Notes of the relevant Borrower payable to the order of the payee named therein or any
assignee pursuant to Section 13.12, except to the extent that any such Lender or assignee
subsequently returns any such Note to the relevant Borrower for cancellation and requests that such
Loans once again be evidenced as described in subsections (a) and (b) above.



     Section 1.12. Funding Indemnity. If any Lender shall incur any loss, cost or expense
(including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or
re-employment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain any Eurodollar
Loan or CAD CDOR Loan or the relending or reinvesting of such deposits or amounts paid or prepaid
to such Lender) as a result of:




     (a) any payment, prepayment or conversion of a Eurodollar Loan or CAD CDOR Loan on a
date other than the last day of its Interest Period,




     (b) any failure (because of a failure to meet the conditions of Section 7 or otherwise)
by a Borrower to borrow or continue a Eurodollar Loan or CAD CDOR Loan, or to convert a U.S.
Base Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in a notice given pursuant to
Section 1.6(a) hereof or to convert a CAD Base Rate Loan into a CAD CDOR Loan on the date
specified in a notice given pursuant to Section 1.6(a) hereof,



-17-









 






     (c) any failure by a Borrower to make any payment of principal on any Eurodollar Loan
or CAD CDOR Loan when due (whether by acceleration or otherwise), or




     (d) any acceleration of the maturity of a Eurodollar Loan or CAD CDOR Loan as a result
of the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder,


then, upon the demand of such Lender, the relevant Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amount as
will reimburse such Lender for such loss, cost or expense. If any Lender makes such a claim for
compensation, it shall provide to the relevant Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a
certificate setting forth the amount of such loss, cost or expense in reasonable detail and the
amounts shown on such certificate shall be conclusive if reasonably deemed prime facie correct.




     Section 1.13. Commitment Terminations. (a) Optional Revolving Credit Terminations. The
Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time, upon five (5) Business Days prior
written notice to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period of time agreed to by the
Administrative Agent), to terminate the Revolving Credit Commitments without premium or penalty and
in whole or in part, any partial termination to be (i) in an amount not less than U.S.$10,000,000
and (ii) allocated ratably among the Lenders in proportion to their respective Revolver
Percentages, provided that the Revolving Credit Commitments may not be reduced to an amount less
than the sum of the Original Dollar Amount of Revolving Loans and Swing Loans and the U.S. Dollar
Equivalent of all L/C Obligations then outstanding. Any termination of the Revolving Credit
Commitments below the L/C Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit then in effect shall reduce the L/C
Sublimit and Swing Line Sublimit, as applicable, by a like amount. The Administrative Agent shall
give prompt notice to each Lender of any such termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments.



     (b) Any termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 1.13 may not
be reinstated.



     Section 1.14. Substitution of Lenders. In the event (a) any Borrower receives a claim from
any Lender for compensation under Section 10.3 or 13.1 hereof, (b) any Borrower receives notice
from any Lender of any illegality pursuant to Section 10.1 hereof, (c) any Lender is then a
Defaulting Lender or such Lender is a Subsidiary or Affiliate of a Person who has been deemed
insolvent or becomes the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or a receiver or
conservator or like Person has been appointed for any such Person, or (d) a Lender fails to consent
to an amendment or waiver
requested under Section 13.13 hereof at a time when the Required Lenders have approved such
amendment or waiver (any such Lender referred to in clause (a), (b), (c), or (d) above being
hereinafter referred to as an “Affected Lender”), the Borrowers may, in addition to any other
rights the Borrowers may have hereunder or under applicable law, require, at the Borrowers’
expense, any such Affected Lender to assign, at par, without recourse, all of its interest, rights,
and obligations hereunder (including all of its Revolving Credit Commitments and the Loans and
participation interests in Letters of Credit and other amounts at any time owing to it hereunder
and the other Loan Documents) to an Eligible Assignee specified by the Borrowers, provided that (i)
such assignment shall not conflict with or



-18-









 







violate any law, rule or regulation or order of any
court or other governmental authority, (ii) the Borrowers shall have paid to the Affected Lender
all monies (together with amounts due such Affected Lender under Section 1.12 hereof as if the
Loans owing to it were prepaid rather than assigned) other than such principal owing to it
hereunder, and (iii) the assignment is entered into in accordance with, and subject to the consents
required by, Section 13.12 hereof (provided any assignment fees and reimbursable expenses due
thereunder shall be paid by the Borrowers).



     Section 1.15. Defaulting Lenders. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
in the event that any Lender at any time is a Defaulting Lender, then (a) during any Defaulting
Lender Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to
be a “Lender” for purposes of voting on any matters (including the granting of any consents or
waivers) with respect to any of the Loan Documents and such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit
Commitments shall be excluded for purposes of determining “Required Lenders” (provided that the
foregoing shall not permit an increase in such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitments or an
extension of the maturity date of such Lender’s Loans or other Obligations without such Lender’s
consent); (b) to the extent permitted by applicable law, until such time as the Defaulting Lender
Excess with respect to such Defaulting Lender shall have been reduced to zero, any voluntary
prepayment of the Loans shall, if the Administrative Agent so directs at the time of making such
voluntary prepayment, be applied to the Loans of other Lenders as if such Defaulting Lender had no
Loans outstanding; (c) such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitments and outstanding Loans
shall be excluded for purposes of calculating any facility fee payable to Lenders pursuant to
Section 2.1 in respect of any day during any Defaulting Lender Period with respect to such
Defaulting Lender, and such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any fee pursuant to
Section 2.1 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment in respect of any
Defaulting Lender Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender (and any Letter of Credit fee
otherwise payable to a Lender who is a Defaulting Lender shall instead be paid to the L/C Issuer
for its use and benefit); (d) the utilization of Revolving Credit Commitments as at any date of
determination shall be calculated as if such Defaulting Lender had funded all Loans of such
Defaulting Lender; and (e) if so requested by the L/C Issuer at any time during the Defaulting
Lender Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender, each Borrower shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent cash collateral in an amount equal to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolver
Percentage of L/C Obligations owed by such Borrower that are then outstanding (to be, held by the
Administrative Agent as set forth in Section 9.4 hereof). No Revolving Credit Commitment of any
Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in
this Section 1.15, performance by any Borrower of its obligations hereunder and the other Loan
Documents shall not be excused or otherwise modified as a result
of the operation of this Section 1.15. The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under
this Section 1.15 are in addition to other rights and remedies which the Borrowers may have against
such Defaulting Lender and which the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against such
Defaulting Lender.




	Section 2. Fees.

Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders in accordance with their Revolver



-19-

the average daily Revolving Credit Commitments, whether or not in use. Such facility fee shall be
payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each January, April, July and October in each year
(commencing on the first such date occurring after the date hereof) and on the Revolving Credit
Termination Date, unless the Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated in whole on an earlier
date, in which event the facility fee for the period to the date of such termination in whole shall
be paid on the date of such termination.



     (b) Letter of Credit Fees. On the date of issuance or extension, or increase in the amount,
of any Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 1.3 hereof, the Borrower for whose account such Letter
of Credit is issued, extended or increased shall pay to the L/C Issuer for its own account a
fronting fee equal to the percentage specified in the fee letter dated January 11, 2011, between
the Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower (the “BMO Fee Letter”) of the face amount of (or of
the increase in the face amount of) such Letter of Credit. Quarterly in arrears, on the last day
of each January, April, July and October, commencing on the first such date occurring after the
date hereof, each Borrower shall pay for each Letter of Credit issued for its account to the
Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders in accordance with their Revolver
Percentages, a letter of credit fee at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin (computed on
the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed)
in effect during each day of such quarter applied to the daily average face amount of Letters of
Credit issued for such Borrower’s account that were outstanding during such quarter. In addition,
each Borrower shall pay to the L/C Issuer for its own account the L/C Issuer’s standard issuance,
drawing, negotiation, amendment, assignment, and other administrative fees for each Letter of
Credit issued for its account as established by the L/C Issuer from time to time. All fees payable
pursuant to this Section 2.1(b) shall be paid in the currency in which the relevant Letter of
Credit is issued.



     (c) Administrative Agent Fees. The U.S. Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for
its own use and benefit, the fees agreed to between the Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower
in the BMO Fee Letter, or as otherwise agreed to in writing between them.




	Section 3. Place and Application of Payments.





     Section 3.1. Place and Application of Payments. All payments of principal of and interest on
the Loans and the
Reimbursement Obligations, and of all other Obligations payable by each Borrower under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall be made by each Borrower to the Administrative Agent

Administrative Agent in Chicago, Illinois in the case of payments by the U.S. Borrower or Toronto,
Canada in the case of payments by the Canadian Borrower (or in each case such other location as the

counterclaim. The Administrative Agent will promptly
thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest on
Loans and on Reimbursement Obligations in which the Lenders have purchased Participating Interests
ratably to the Lenders and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any
Lender to such Lender, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
If the Administrative Agent causes amounts to be distributed to the Lenders in reliance upon the
assumption that a Borrower will make a scheduled payment and such scheduled payment is not so made,
each Lender shall, on demand, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount distributed to such
Lender together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the
date such amount was distributed to such Lender and ending on (but excluding) the date such Lender
repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to: (i) from the date
the distribution was made to the date two (2) Business Days after payment by such Lender is due
hereunder, (x) if such scheduled payment was to be made in U.S. Dollars, the Federal Funds Rate for
each such day, and (y) if such scheduled payment was to be made in Canadian Dollars, the cost to
the Administrative Agent of funding such amount, and (ii) from the date two (2) Business Days after
the date such payment is due from such Lender to the date such payment is made by such Lender, (x)
if such scheduled payment was to be made in U.S. Dollars, the U.S. Base Rate for each such day, and
(y) if such scheduled payment was to be made in Canadian Dollars, the CAD Base Rate in effect for
each such day.



     Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding (including, without limitation,

Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders after acceleration or the final maturity of the
Obligations or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments as a result of an Event of Default

     (a) first, to the payment of any outstanding costs and expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent, in protecting, preserving or enforcing rights under the Loan
Documents, and in any event including all costs and expenses of a character which the
Borrowers have agreed to pay the Administrative Agent under Section 13.15 hereof (such funds
to be retained by the Administrative Agent for its own account unless it has previously been
reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Lenders, in which event such amounts shall be
remitted to the Lenders to reimburse them for payments theretofore made to the
Administrative Agent);




     (b) second, to the payment of the Swing Loans, both for principal and accrued but
unpaid interest;




     (c) third, to the payment of any outstanding interest and fees due under the Loan
Documents to be allocated pro rata in accordance with the aggregate unpaid amounts owing to
each holder thereof;




     (d) fourth, to the payment of principal on the Loans (other than Swing Loans), unpaid
Reimbursement Obligations, together with amounts to be held by the Administrative Agent as

-21-









 






to the then outstanding
amount of all such L/C Obligations), aggregate amount paid to, or held as collateral
security for, the Lenders and L/C Issuer to be allocated pro rata in accordance with the
aggregate unpaid amounts owing to each holder thereof;




     (e) fifth, to the payment of all other unpaid Obligations to be allocated pro rata in
accordance with the aggregate unpaid amounts owing to each holder thereof; and




     (f) finally, to the relevant Borrower or whoever else may be lawfully entitled thereto.

contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings which prevent enforcement of the matter
under contest and as to which adequate reserves established in accordance with GAAP have been
provided or which failure to pay would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect. No Borrower knows of any proposed material additional tax assessment against it or its

such a letter is currently being processed by the IRS with respect thereto and, to the knowledge of
any Borrower, nothing has occurred which would reasonably be expected to cause the loss of, such
qualification. Each Borrower and each ERISA Affiliate have made all required contributions to each

any amortization period pursuant to Section 412 of the Code has been made with respect to any Plan.

Material Adverse Effect; (B) as of the first day of the most recent plan year of a Pension Plan for
which the sponsor of the Pension Plan has received an actuarial valuation report, no Pension Plan
has any Unfunded Pension Liability that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect; (C) neither any Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred, or reasonably expects to
incur, any liability under Title IV of ERISA with respect to any Pension Plan (other than premiums
due and not delinquent under Section 4007 of ERISA) that would have a Material Adverse Effect; (D)
neither any the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred, or reasonably expects to incur, any
liability (and no event has occurred which, with the giving of notice under Section 4219 of ERISA,
would result in such liability) under Section 4201 or 4243 of ERISA with respect to a Multiemployer
Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and (E) neither any
Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has knowingly engaged in a transaction that would be reasonably

Schedule 6.15(b) hereto, as of the date hereof each of the Canadian Benefit Plans is either fully
funded or fully insured. Except as set forth on Schedule 6.15(b) hereto, as of the date hereof
there are no outstanding actions or suits concerning the assets of the Canadian Pension Plans or
the Canadian Benefit Plans. Except as set forth on Schedule 6.15(b) hereto, as of the date hereof
neither the Canadian Borrower or its Subsidiaries have any liability in respect of a multi-employer
pension plan as that term is defined in the relevant Canadian pension legislation. Except as set
forth on Schedule 6.15(b) hereto, as of the date hereof each of the Canadian Pension Plans is fully
funded on a going concern basis or solvency basis (using actuarial methods and assumptions which
are consistent with the valuations last filed with the applicable Governmental Authorities or
commissioned at the request of any Borrower or its Subsidiaries and which are consistent with
generally accepted actuarial principles).



     Section 6.16. Compliance with Laws. Each Borrower and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with

Subsidiary has received notice to the effect that its operations are not in compliance with any of
the requirements of applicable federal, state, provincial or local environmental, health, and
safety statutes and regulations or is the subject of any governmental investigation evaluating
whether any remedial action is needed to respond to a release of any toxic or hazardous waste or
substance into the environment, where any such non-compliance or remedial action, individually or
in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

of each Borrower is in compliance with the requirements of all United States and Canadian export
control, trade and commerce laws (including without limitation the OFAC Sanctions Program)
applicable to such Subsidiary, except where any such non-compliance, individually or in the
aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (c) each Borrower
has provided to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, and the Lenders all information regarding
such Borrower and its Affiliates and Subsidiaries necessary for the Administrative Agent, the L/C
Issuer, and the Lenders to comply with all applicable United States and Canadian export control,
trade and commerce laws, (including without limitation the OFAC Sanctions Program), and (d) to the
Borrowers’ knowledge, neither such Borrower nor any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries is, as of the
date hereof, named on the current OFAC SDN List.



     Section 6.18. Other Agreements. Neither Borrower nor any Loan Party is in default under the
terms of any covenant, indenture or agreement of or affecting such Person or any of its Property,
which default would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

solvent, able to pay their debts as they become due, and have sufficient capital to carry on their
business and all businesses in which they are about to engage.



     (b) Canadian Borrower. Canadian Borrower has received consideration that is the reasonable
equivalent value of the obligations and liabilities that Canadian Borrower has incurred to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders. Canadian Borrower is not insolvent as defined in any
applicable state, provincial, federal, municipal or relevant foreign statute, nor will Canadian
Borrower be rendered insolvent by the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders. Canadian Borrower is not engaged or about to engage in any
business or transaction for which the assets retained by it are or will be an unreasonably small
amount of capital, taking into consideration the obligations to the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders incurred hereunder. Canadian Borrower does not intend to, nor does it believe that it
will, incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature.

provided that when any Wholly owned Subsidiary is merging or amalgamating with another
Subsidiary, the Wholly owned Subsidiary shall be the continuing or surviving Person;




     (d) in connection with any acquisition permitted under Section 8.9, any Borrower and
any Subsidiary of a Borrower may merge or amalgamate into or consolidate with any other
Person or permit any other Person to merge or amalgamate into or consolidate with it;
provided that the Person surviving such merger, amalgamation or consolidation shall be a
Borrower or a Subsidiary of such Borrower, or in the case of the Canadian Borrower, the
amalgamated corporation resulting from such amalgamation shall deliver a written
confirmation to the Administrative Agent confirming that it is subject to all of the
Obligations of the Canadian Borrower hereunder;




     (e) sale, transfer or other disposition of any equipment or real property to the extent

     (f) non-exclusive licenses of intellectual property rights;




     (g) any Subsidiary may dissolve, liquidate or otherwise terminate its existence, or may
reincorporate or reorganize in another jurisdiction, if the U.S. Borrower determines that
such action is consistent with the interests of the U.S. Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken
as a whole; and




     (h) any Borrower or any Subsidiary may sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of
any assets to any Person so long as (i) such disposition is for fair market value (as
determined by such Borrower or Subsidiary); and (ii) the aggregate amount of all such
dispositions pursuant to this subsection (g) for all of the Borrowers and Subsidiaries does
not exceed, for the most recently completed four fiscal quarters of U.S. Borrower, an amount
equal to fifteen percent (15%) of Consolidated Total Assets for the most recently completed
fiscal year of U.S. Borrower; provided, however, that if the proceeds hereof are intended to
be used to repay Indebtedness for Borrowed Money or to acquire property useful in the
business of the U.S. Borrower and its Subsidiaries within three hundred sixty-five (365)
days, then such sale, lease, transfer or other disposition shall be excluded for the
purposes of determining compliance with this clause (g) or hereof.



     Section 8.11. Dividends and Certain Other Restricted Payments. No Borrower shall, nor shall
it permit any Subsidiary to, (a) declare or pay any dividends on or make any other distributions in
respect of any class or series of its capital stock or other equity interests (other than dividends
or distributions payable solely in its capital stock or other equity interests), or (b) directly or
indirectly purchase, redeem, or otherwise acquire or retire any of its capital stock or other
equity interests or any warrants, options, or similar instruments to acquire the same,
(collectively referred to herein as “Restricted Payments”); provided, however, that (a) the
foregoing shall not operate to prevent the making of dividends or distributions by any Subsidiary
to any other Subsidiary or to a Borrower, and (b) the U.S. Borrower may declare or pay any
Restricted Payment so long as both immediately prior to and after such declaration or payment no
Event of Default shall exist.



     Section 8.12. Benefit Plans. (a) ERISA. Each Borrower shall, and shall cause each ERISA
Affiliate to, promptly pay and discharge all obligations and liabilities arising under ERISA of a
character which if unpaid or unperformed would reasonably be expected to result in the imposition
of a Lien against any of its Property and have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Borrower shall, and
shall cause ERISA Affiliate to, promptly notify the Administrative Agent and each Lender of: (a)
the occurrence of any Reportable Event with respect to a Pension Plan, (b) receipt of any notice
from the PBGC of its intention to seek termination of any Pension Plan or appointment of a trustee
therefor, (c) its intention to terminate or withdraw from any Pension Plan, and (d) the occurrence
of any event
with respect to any Plan which would result in the incurrence by such Borrower or any ERISA
Affiliate of any liability, fine or penalty, or any increase in the contingent liability of such
Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate with respect to any post-retirement Welfare Plan benefit, that, in
any such case, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

     (b) Canadian Pension Plans and Benefit Plans.




     (i) For each existing, or hereafter adopted, Canadian Pension Plan and Canadian Benefit
Plan, each Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall in a timely fashion comply with and perform

Canadian Pension Plan or Canadian Benefit Plan, including under any funding agreements and
all applicable laws (including any fiduciary, funding, investment and administration
obligations).




     (ii) All employer or employee payments, contributions or premiums required to be
remitted, paid to or in respect of each Canadian Pension Plan or Canadian Benefit Plan shall
be paid or remitted by any Borrower or its Subsidiary in a timely fashion in accordance with

Subsidiaries shall also ensure that within 30 days after (A) the timely filing of an
actuarial valuation report required to be filed under Canadian pension legislation, or (B)
the rendering of an actuarial valuation report commissioned at the request of any Borrower
or its subsidiaries (a “New Valuation Report”), which New Valuation Report identifies a
going concern or solvency deficit (using actuarial methods and assumptions which are
consistent with the valuations last filed with the applicable Governmental Authorities and
with generally accepted actuarial principles) that is greater than the corresponding going
concern or solvency deficit disclosed in Schedule 6.15(b) (the “Increased Deficit”), where
such Increased Deficit would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the
difference between the Increased Deficit and the corresponding deficit disclosed in Schedule
6.15 shall be liquidated so as to bring the level of such deficit to a level equal to any
corresponding deficit disclosed in Schedule 6.15(b).




     (iii) Except as disclosed in Schedule 6.15(b), where it would reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) no Canadian Benefit Plans shall be an unfunded or
self-insured plan; and (ii) no Borrower or Subsidiary shall increase its unfunded position
in respect of such Canadian Benefit Plan disclosed in 6.15(b)




     (iv) Except as disclosed in Schedule 6.15(b), no Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries

requested by the Administrative Agent, copies of each annual and other return, report or
valuation with respect to each Canadian Pension Plan as filed with any applicable
Governmental Authority or as commissioned by such Borrower or its Subsidiary; (B) promptly
after receipt thereof, a copy of any material claim direction,
order, notice, ruling or opinion that any Borrower or any Subsidiary may receive from any
applicable Governmental Authority or other claimant except for regular claims for benefits
with respect to any Canadian Pension Plan or Canadian Benefit Plan; and (C) notification
within thirty (30) days of any increases having a cost to any Borrower or any Subsidiary in
excess of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) per annum in the aggregate, in



-56-









 






respect of any
existing Canadian Pension Plan or Canadian Benefit Plan, or the establishment of any new
Canadian Pension Plan or Canadian Benefit Plan, or the commencement of contributions to any
such plan to which any Borrower or any Subsidiary was not previously contributing.



     Section 8.13. Compliance with Laws. Each Borrower shall, and shall cause each Subsidiary to,
comply in all material respects with the requirements of all federal, state, provincial, and local
laws, rules, regulations, ordinances and orders applicable to or pertaining to its Property or
business operations, except in such instances in which (a) such requirement of law or order, writ,
injunction or decree is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently
conducted; or (b) the failure to comply therewith would not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.



     Section 8.14. Compliance with OFAC Sanctions Programs. (a) Each Borrower shall at all times
comply with the requirements of all United States and Canadian export control, trade and commerce
laws (including without limitation the OFAC Sanctions Programs) applicable to such Borrower and

Canadian export control, trade and commerce laws applicable to such Subsidiary, except in each case
where any such non-compliance, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.



     (b) Each Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, and the Lenders any
information regarding such Borrower, its Affiliates, and its Subsidiaries necessary for the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, and the Lenders to comply with all applicable United States
and Canadian export control, trade and commerce laws (including without limitation the OFAC
Sanctions Programs); subject however, in the case of Affiliates, to such Borrower’s ability to
provide information applicable to them.



     (c) If any Borrower obtains actual knowledge or receives any written notice that such
Borrower, any Affiliate or any Subsidiary is named on the then current OFAC SDN List (such
occurrence, an “OFAC Event”), such Borrower shall promptly (i) give written notice to the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, and the Lenders of such OFAC Event, and (ii) comply with all
applicable laws with respect to such OFAC Event (regardless of whether the party included on the
OFAC SDN List is located within the jurisdiction of the United States of America), including the
United States and Canadian export control, trade and commerce laws (including without limitation
the OFAC Sanctions Programs), and each Borrower hereby authorizes and consents to the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, and the Lenders taking any and all steps the Administrative
Agent, the L/C Issuer, or the Lenders deem necessary, in their sole but reasonable discretion, to
avoid violation of all applicable laws with respect to any such OFAC Event, including the
requirements of the United States and Canadian export control, trade
and commerce laws (including without limitation the OFAC Sanctions Programs) (including the
freezing and/or blocking of assets and reporting such action to OFAC).



     Section 8.15. Burdensome Contracts With Affiliates. Except as otherwise permitted hereunder,
no Borrower shall, nor shall it permit any Subsidiary to, enter into any contract, agreement or
business arrangement with any of its Affiliates on terms and conditions which are,



-57-









 




taken as a
whole, materially less favorable to the Borrower or such Subsidiary than would be usual and
customary in similar contracts, agreements or business arrangements between Persons not affiliated
with each other; provided however that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the payment of
customary and reasonable directors’ fees to directors who are not employees of any Borrower or any
of their Subsidiaries or an Affiliate, (b) any transaction between a Borrower or a Guarantor and an
Affiliate that is a Borrower or a Guarantor which the U.S. Borrower reasonably determines in good
faith is beneficial to the U.S. Borrower and is Subsidiaries taken as a whole and which is not
entered into for the purpose of hindering the exercise by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders
of any rights or remedies under this Agreement, (c) any employment agreement, employee benefit
plan, stock option plan, officer and director indemnification agreement or any similar arrangement
entered into by any Borrower or any Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business, or (d) loans to
employees or officers in the ordinary course of business.




     Section 8.16. No Changes in Fiscal Year. The fiscal year of the Borrowers and their
Subsidiaries ends on April 30 of each year; and no Borrower shall, nor shall it permit any
Subsidiary to, change its fiscal year from its present basis.

Subsidiary to, engage in any material line of business if as a result thereof the general nature of
the business conducted by the U.S. Borrower and its Subsidiaries would be substantially changed
from the general nature of the business conducted by the U.S. Borrower and its Subsidiaries on the
date hereof (it being understood and agreed that any business which is in the food and beverage
industry shall not violate this Section 8.17).



     Section 8.18. Use of Proceeds. Each Borrower shall use the credit extended to it under this
Agreement solely for the purposes set forth in, or otherwise permitted by, Section 6.4 hereof.



     Section 8.19. No Restrictions. Except as provided herein, no Borrower shall, nor shall it
permit any Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or
become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction of any kind on the ability of such
Borrower or any Subsidiary to: (a) pay dividends or make any other distribution on any
Subsidiary’s capital stock or other equity interests owned by such Borrower or any other
Subsidiary, (b) pay any indebtedness owed to a Borrower or any other Subsidiary, (c) make loans or
advances to any Borrower or any other Subsidiary, (d) transfer any of its Property to any Borrower
or any other Subsidiary, or (e) guarantee the Obligations as required by the Loan Documents, except
for such encumbrances or restrictions
existing under or by reason of (i) applicable law, (ii) customary non-assignment provisions in
leases or other agreement entered into in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past
practices, or (iii) customary restrictions in security agreements or mortgages securing
Indebtedness for Borrowed Money of any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries, or any Capital Lease,

Guarantor shall enter into, or shall have entered into, any agreement regarding Indebtedness for
Borrowed Money in a principal amount in excess of $100,000,000, which contain Financial Covenants
that are not contained herein or that are more restrictive than the Financial Covenants set forth
herein, then the Borrowers and the Guarantors shall be bound hereunder by such more restrictive
Financial Covenants with the same force and effect as if such covenants were written herein. For
purposes of this Section 8.21, “Financial Covenant” means any covenant or equivalent provision
(including, without limitation, any default or event of default provision and definitions of
defined terms used therein) requiring the U.S. Borrower (a) to maintain any level of financial
performance (including, without limitation, a specified level of net worth, total assets, cash flow
or net income), (b) not to exceed any maximum level of indebtedness, (c) to maintain any
relationship of any component of its capital structure to any other component thereof (including,

ability to service its indebtedness (including, without limitation, falling below any specified
ratio of revenues, cash flow or net income to interest expense, rental expense, capital
expenditures and/or scheduled payments of indebtedness).

(except to the extent fully covered by insurance), and which remains undischarged,
unvacated, unbonded or unstayed for a period of 30 days;




     (h) an ERISA Event occurs with respect to a pension benefit plan, a Pension Plan or

Agent or any Lender and is not satisfied by the Canadian Borrower or withdrawn within 10
days.



     Section 9.2. Non-Bankruptcy Defaults. When any Event of Default (other than those described
in subsection (j) or (k) of Section 9.1 hereof with respect to any Borrower) has occurred and is
continuing, the Administrative Agent shall, by written notice to the Borrowers: (a) if so directed
by the Required Lenders, terminate the remaining Revolving Credit Commitments and all other
obligations of the Lenders hereunder on the date stated in such notice (which may be the date
thereof); (b) if so directed by the Required Lenders, declare the principal of and the accrued
interest on all outstanding Loans to be forthwith due and payable and thereupon all outstanding
Loans, including both principal and interest thereon, shall be and become immediately due and

presentment, protest or notice of any kind; and (c) if so directed by the Required Lenders, demand
that each Borrower immediately pay to the Administrative Agent the full amount then available for
drawing under each or any Letter of Credit issued for such Borrower’s account hereunder, and each
Borrower agrees to immediately make such payment and acknowledges and agrees that the Lenders would
not have an adequate remedy at law for failure by such Borrower to honor any such demand and that
the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, shall have the right to require such
Borrower to specifically perform such undertaking whether or not any drawings or other demands for
payment have been made under any Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent, after giving notice
to any Borrower pursuant to Section 9.1(c) or this Section 9.2, shall also promptly send a copy of
such notice to the other Lenders, but the failure to do so shall not impair or annul the effect of
such notice.

notice of any kind, the
obligation of the Lenders to extend further credit pursuant to any of the terms hereof shall
immediately terminate and each Borrower shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent the full
amount then available for drawing under all outstanding Letters of Credit issued for such
Borrower’s account hereunder, each Borrower acknowledging and agreeing that the Lenders would not
have an adequate remedy at law for failure by such Borrower to honor any such demand and that the
Lenders, and the Administrative Agent on their behalf, shall have the right to require such
Borrower to specifically perform such undertaking whether or not any draws or other demands for
payment have been made under any of the Letters of Credit.




     Section 9.4. Collateral for Undrawn Letters of Credit. (a) If the prepayment of the amount
available for drawing under any or all outstanding Letters of Credit issued for the account of a

above, such Borrower shall forthwith pay the amount required to be so prepaid, to be held by the
Administrative Agent as provided in subsection (b) below.



     (b) All amounts prepaid pursuant to subsection (a) above shall be held by the Administrative
Agent in one or more separate collateral accounts (each such account, and the credit balances,
properties, and any investments from time to time held therein, and any substitutions for such
account, any certificate of deposit or other instrument evidencing any of the foregoing and all
proceeds of and earnings on any of the foregoing being collectively called the “Collateral
Account”) as security for, and for application by the Administrative Agent (to the extent
available) to, the reimbursement of any payment under any Letter of Credit issued for the account
of the Borrower that made such prepayment then or thereafter made by the L/C Issuer, and to the
payment of the unpaid balance of all other Obligations of such Borrower. The Collateral Account
shall be held in the name of and subject to the exclusive dominion and control of the
Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the L/C Issuer.
If and when requested by the relevant Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall invest funds held in
the Collateral Account from time to time in direct obligations of, or obligations the principal of
and interest on which are unconditionally guaranteed by, the United States of America with a
remaining maturity of one year or less, provided that the Administrative Agent is irrevocably
authorized to sell investments held in the Collateral Account when and as required to make payments
out of the Collateral Account for application to amounts due and owing from the Borrower to the L/C
Issuer, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders; provided, however, that (i) if any Borrower shall
have made payment of all obligations referred to in subsection (a) above required under Section
1.9(b) and Section 1.15 hereof, if any, at the request of such Borrower the Administrative Agent
shall release to such Borrower amounts held in the Collateral Account so long as at the time of the
release and after giving effect thereto no Default or Event of Default exists and, in the case of
Section 1.15 hereof, the Defaulting Lender Period with respect to the relevant Defaulting Lender
has terminated, and (ii) if any Borrower shall have made payment of all obligations referred to in
subsection (a) above required under Section 9.2 or 9.3 hereof, so long as no Letters of Credit,
Revolving Credit Commitments, Loans or other Obligations remain outstanding, at the request of such
Borrower the Administrative Agent shall release to such Borrower any remaining amounts prepaid by
such Borrower that are held in the Collateral Account.



-62-









 





     Section 9.5. Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Borrowers
under Section 9.1(c) hereof promptly upon being requested to do so by any Lender and shall
thereupon notify all the Lenders thereof.



Section 10. Change in Circumstances.




     Section 10.1. Change of Law. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, if at any time any change in applicable law or regulation (and for purposes of
this Agreement, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all regulations,
guidelines or directives in connection therewith (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) are deemed to have been
adopted and gone into effect after the date hereof), or in the interpretation thereof makes it
unlawful for any Lender to make or continue to maintain any Eurodollar Loans or CAD CDOR Loans or
to perform its obligations as contemplated hereby, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof
to the Borrowers and such Lender’s obligations to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans under this
Agreement shall be suspended until it is no longer unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain
Eurodollar Loans or CAD CDOR Loans. Each Borrower shall prepay on demand the outstanding principal
amount of any such affected Eurodollar Loans or CAD CDOR Loans made to it, together with all
interest accrued thereon and all other amounts then due and payable to such Lender under this
Agreement; provided, however, subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the
U.S. Borrower may then elect to borrow the principal amount of the affected Eurodollar Loans from
such Lender by means of U.S. Base Rate Loans from such Lender, and the Canadian Borrower may then
elect to borrow the principal amount of the affected CAD CDOR Loans from such Lender by means of a
CAD Base Rate Loan from such Lender, which Loans shall not be made ratably by the Lenders but only
from such affected Lender.



     Section 10.2. Unavailability of Deposits or Inability to Ascertain, or Inadequacy of, LIBOR or
CDOR Fixed Rate. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Borrowing of
Eurodollar Loans or CAD CDOR Loans:




     (a) the Administrative Agent determines that deposits in U.S. Dollars or Canadian
Dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to it in the interbank market for
such Interest Period, or that by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant interbank
market adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBOR or
CDOR Fixed Rate, or




     (b) the Required Lenders advise the Administrative Agent that (i) LIBOR or CDOR Fixed
Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the
cost to such Lenders of funding their Eurodollar Loans or CAD CDOR Loans, respectively, for
such Interest Period or (ii) that the making or funding of Eurodollar Loans or CAD CDOR
Loans become impracticable,



then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Lenders,
whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise
to such suspension no longer exist, the obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Loans or CAD
CDOR Loans, as applicable, shall be suspended.




-63-









 








     Section 10.3. Increased Cost and Reduced Return. (a) If, on or after the date hereof, the
adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation (and for purposes of this Agreement, the
Dodd-Frank Act is deemed to have been adopted and gone into effect after the date hereof), or any
change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental
authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its Lending Office) or the L/C Issuer with any request or
directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or
comparable agency:




     (i) shall subject any Lender (or its Lending Office) or the L/C Issuer to any tax, duty
or other charge with respect to its Eurodollar Loans, CAD CDOR Loans, its Notes, its
Letter(s) of Credit, or its participation in any thereof, any Reimbursement Obligations owed
to it or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans, CAD CDOR Loans, issue a Letter of Credit,
or to participate therein, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender
(or its Lending Office) or the L/C Issuer of the principal of or interest on its Eurodollar
Loans, CAD CDOR Loans, Letter(s) of Credit, or participations therein or any other amounts
due under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in respect of its Eurodollar Loans, CAD
CDOR Loans, Letter(s) of Credit, any participation therein, any Reimbursement Obligations
owed to it, or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans, CAD CDOR Loans, or issue a Letter of
Credit, or acquire participations therein (except for changes in the rate of tax on the
overall net income of such Lender or its Lending Office or the L/C Issuer imposed by the
jurisdiction in which such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s principal executive office or
Lending Office is located); or




     (ii) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar
requirement (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding with respect to any Eurodollar Loans
any such requirement included in an applicable Eurodollar Reserve Percentage) against assets
of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (or its Lending
Office) or the L/C Issuer or shall impose on any Lender (or its Lending Office) or the L/C
Issuer or on the interbank market any other condition affecting its Eurodollar Loans, its
Notes, its CAD CDOR Loans, its Letter(s) of Credit, or its participation in any thereof, any
Reimbursement Obligation owed to it, or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans or CAD CDOR
Loans, or to issue a Letter of Credit, or to participate therein;



and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (or its Lending
Office) or the L/C Issuer of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan or CAD CDOR Loans, issuing
or maintaining a Letter of Credit, or participating therein, or to reduce the amount of any sum
received or receivable by such Lender (or its Lending Office) or the L/C Issuer under this
Agreement or under any other Loan Document with respect thereto, by an amount deemed by such Lender
or L/C Issuer to be material, then, within 15 days after demand by such Lender or L/C Issuer (with
a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers shall be obligated to pay to such Lender or L/C
Issuer such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer for such
increased cost or reduction.

     (b) If, after the date hereof, any Lender, the L/ C Issuer, or the Administrative Agent shall
have determined that the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital
adequacy (and for purposes of this Agreement, the Dodd-Frank Act is deemed to have been adopted and
gone into effect after the date hereof), or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation
or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged
with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its Lending
Office) or the L/C Issuer or any corporation controlling such Lender or L/C Issuer with any request
or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
authority, central bank or comparable agency, has had the effect of reducing the rate of return on
such Lender’s or L/C Issuer ‘s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations
hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or L/C Issuer or such corporation could have
achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or
L/C Issuer ‘s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed
by such Lender or L/C Issuer to be material, then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by
such Lender or L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), each Borrower shall pay in
respect of Letters of Credit issued for its account to such Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable,
such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer for such reduction.



     (c) A certificate of a Lender or L/C Issuer claiming compensation under this Section 10.3 and
setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive if
reasonably determined. In determining such amount, such Lender or L/C Issuer may use any
reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall
not be obligated to compensate any Lender or L/C Issuer for any increased costs or reductions
incurred more than 90 days prior to the date the Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies
the Borrowers of its intention to claim compensation therefor.



     Section 10.4. Lending Offices. Each Lender and L/C Issuer may, at its option, elect to make
its Loans and issue its Letters of Credit hereunder at the branch, office or affiliate specified on
the Administration Questionnaire provided by it to the Administrative Agent (each a “Lending
Office”) for each type of Loan available hereunder and for each Borrower hereunder or at such other
of its branches, offices or affiliates as it may from time to time elect and designate in a written
notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to
any such Lending Office and the Loans, Letters of Credit, participations in L/C Obligations and any
Notes issued hereunder shall be deemed held by each Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be,
for the benefit of any such Lending Office. To the extent reasonably possible, a Lender shall
designate an alternative branch or funding office with respect to its Eurodollar Loans to reduce
any liability of the Borrowers to such Lender under Section 10.3 hereof or to avoid the
unavailability of Eurodollar Loans under Section 10.2 hereof, so long as such designation is not
otherwise disadvantageous to the Lender.



     Section 10.5. Discretion of Lender as to Manner of Funding. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all
or any part of its Loans in any manner it sees fit, it being understood, however, that for the
purposes of this Agreement all determinations hereunder with respect to Eurodollar Loans shall be
made as if each Lender had actually funded and maintained each Eurodollar Loan through the



-65-









 





purchase of deposits in the interbank eurodollar market having a maturity corresponding to such
Loan’s Interest Period, and bearing an interest rate equal to LIBOR for such Interest Period.




Section 11. The Administrative Agent.




     Section 11.1. Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent. Each Lender and the L/C
Issuer hereby appoints Bank of Montreal as the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and
hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as Administrative Agent on its
behalf and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative
Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The
Lenders and L/C Issuer expressly agree that the Administrative Agent is not acting as a fiduciary
of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer in respect of the Loan Documents, the Borrowers or otherwise, and
nothing herein or in any of the other Loan Documents shall result in any duties or obligations on
the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders or L/C Issuer except as expressly set forth herein.



     Section 11.2. Administrative Agent and its Affiliates. The Administrative Agent shall have
the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any other Lender
and may exercise or refrain from exercising such rights and power as though it were not the
Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from,
lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower or any Affiliate of
any Borrower as if it were not the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. The term
“Lender” as used herein and in all other Loan Documents, unless the context otherwise clearly
requires, includes the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender (if applicable).



     Section 11.3. Action by Administrative Agent. If the Administrative Agent receives from any
Borrower a written notice of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.5 hereof, the Administrative
Agent shall promptly give each of the Lenders and L/C Issuer written notice thereof. The
obligations of the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents are only those expressly set forth
therein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not be
required to take any action hereunder with respect to any Default or Event of Default, except as
expressly provided in Sections 9.2 and 9.5. Unless and until the Required Lenders give such
direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take or refrain from taking
such actions as it deems appropriate and in the best interest of all the Lenders and L/C Issuer.
In no event, however, shall the Administrative Agent be required to take any action in violation of
applicable law or of any provision of any Loan Document, and the Administrative Agent shall in all
cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder or under any other Loan Document
unless it first receives any further assurances of its indemnification from the Lenders that it may
require, including prepayment of any related expenses and any other protection it requires against
any and all costs, expense, and liability which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or
continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume that no
Default or Event of Default exists unless notified in writing to the contrary by a Lender, the L/C
Issuer, or a Borrower. In all cases in which the Loan Documents do not require the Administrative
Agent to take specific action, the Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in using its
discretion in failing to take or in



-66-









 





taking any action thereunder. Any instructions of the Required Lenders, or of any other group of
Lenders called for under the specific provisions of the Loan Documents, shall be binding upon all
the Lenders and the holders of the Obligations.




     Section 11.4. Consultation with Experts. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal
counsel, independent public accountants, and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable
for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of
such counsel, accountants or experts.



     Section 11.5. Liability of Administrative Agent; Credit Decision. Neither the Administrative
Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken
or not taken by it in connection with the Loan Documents: (i) with the consent or at the request
of the Required Lenders or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be
responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify: (i) any statement, warranty
or representation made in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Credit
Event; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of any Borrower or
any Subsidiary contained herein or in any other Loan Document; (iii) the satisfaction of any
condition specified in Section 7 hereof, except receipt of items required to be delivered to the
Administrative Agent; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability, perfection,
value, worth or collectibility hereof or of any other Loan Document or of any other documents or
writing furnished in connection with any Loan Document; and the Administrative Agent makes no
representation of any kind or character with respect to any such matter mentioned in this sentence.
The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under any of the Loan Documents by or
through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be answerable to the Lenders, the
L/C Issuer, the Borrowers, or any other Person for the default or misconduct of any such agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care. The Administrative Agent shall not incur any
liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, other document or statement
(whether written or oral) believed by it to be genuine or to be sent by the proper party or
parties. In particular and without limiting any of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall
have no responsibility for confirming the accuracy of any compliance certificate or other document
or instrument received by it under the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent may treat the
payee of any Obligation as the holder thereof until written notice of transfer shall have been
filed with the Administrative Agent signed by such payee in form satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent. Each Lender and L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has independently and without reliance on
the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or L/C Issuer, and based upon such information,
investigations and inquiries as it deems appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to
extend credit to the Borrowers in the manner set forth in the Loan Documents. It shall be the
responsibility of each Lender and L/C Issuer to keep itself informed as to the creditworthiness of
any Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and the Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any
Lender or L/C Issuer with respect thereto.



     Section 11.6. Indemnity. The Lenders shall ratably, in accordance with their respective
Percentages, indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent, and its directors, officers, employees,
agents, and representatives harmless from and against any liabilities, losses, costs or expenses



-67-









 





suffered or incurred by it under any Loan Document or in connection with the transactions
contemplated thereby, regardless of when asserted or arising, except to the extent they are
promptly reimbursed for the same by any Borrower and except to the extent that any event giving
rise to a claim was caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking to be
indemnified. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section shall survive termination of this
Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to offset amounts received for the account
of a Lender under this Agreement against unpaid amounts due from such Lender to the Administrative
Agent, any L/C Issuer, or Swing Line Lender hereunder (whether as fundings of participations,
indemnities or otherwise, and with any amounts offset for the benefit of the Administrative Agent
to be held by it for its own account and with any amounts offset for the benefit of a L/C Issuer or
Swing Line Lender to be remitted by the Administrative Agent to of for the account of such L/C
Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as applicable), but shall not be entitled to offset against amounts
owed to the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender by any Lender arising outside
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.




     Section 11.7. Resignation of Administrative Agent and Successor Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders, the
L/C Issuer, and the Borrowers. Upon any such resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Required
Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, subject to the consent
(which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of the Borrowers if no Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed
by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the
retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation then the retiring Administrative
Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which may be any
Lender hereunder or, with the consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of the
Borrowers if no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any commercial bank, or an
Affiliate of a commercial bank, having an office in the United States of America and having a
combined capital and surplus of at least $200,000,000. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as
the Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to
and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent under the
Loan Documents, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations thereunder. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 11 and all protective provisions of the other
Loan Documents shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it
while it was Administrative Agent, but no successor Administrative Agent shall in any event be
liable or responsible for any actions of its predecessor. If the Administrative Agent resigns and
no successor is appointed, the rights and obligations of such Administrative Agent shall be
automatically assumed by the Required Lenders and the Borrowers shall be directed to make all
payments due each Lender and L/C Issuer hereunder directly to such Lender or L/C Issuer.



     Section 11.8. L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender. The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the
Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith,
and the Swing Line Lender shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to the Swing Loans made
hereunder. The L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender shall each have all of the benefits and
immunities (a) provided to the Administrative Agent in this Section 11 with



-68-









 





respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of
Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the Applications pertaining to such Letters
of Credit or by the Swing Line Lender in connection with Swing Loans made or to be made hereunder
as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent”, as used in this Section 11, included the L/C Issuer
and the Swing Line Lender with respect to such acts or omissions and (b) as additionally provided
in this Agreement with respect to such L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as applicable.




     Section 11.9. Designation of Additional Agents. The Administrative Agent shall have the
continuing right, for purposes hereof, at any time and from time to time to designate one or more
of the Lenders (and/or its or their Affiliates) as “syndication agents,” “documentation agents,”
“book runners,” “lead arrangers,” “arrangers,” or other designations for purposes hereto, but such
designation shall have no substantive effect, and neither the Lead Arrangers and syndication agent
named herein nor any such Lenders and their Affiliates shall have any additional powers, duties or
responsibilities as a result of being named herein or of being so designated by the Administrative
Agent.



     Section 11.10. The Intercreditor Agreement. The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably
authorized by the Required Lenders to execute and deliver the Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of
each of the Lenders and to take such action and exercise such powers under the Intercreditor
Agreement as the Administrative Agent considers appropriate, provided the Administrative Agent
shall not amend the Intercreditor Agreement unless (a) such amendment is agreed to in writing by
the Required Lenders, or (b) such amendment is necessary as a result of an amendment, waiver or
other modification of this Agreement that has been approved by the Required Lenders. Each Lender
acknowledges and agrees that it (and any assignee of such Lender) will be bound by the terms and
conditions of the Intercreditor Agreement upon the execution and delivery thereof by the
Administrative Agent. Except as otherwise specifically provided for herein, no Lender other than
the Administrative Agent shall have the right to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity
or at law for the enforcement of any remedy under the Intercreditor Agreement; it being understood
and intended that all proceedings at law or in equity shall be instituted, had, and maintained by
the Administrative Agent in the manner provided for in the Intercreditor Agreement for the benefit
of the Lenders.



Section 12. The Guarantees.




     Section 12.1. The Guarantees. To induce the Lenders and L/C Issuer to provide the credits
described herein and in consideration of benefits expected to accrue to the Borrowers by reason of
the Revolving Credit Commitments and for other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is
hereby acknowledged, (a) each Guarantor which is a Domestic Subsidiary (including any such
Subsidiary executing an Additional Guarantor Supplement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G or
such other form acceptable to the Administrative Agent) hereby unconditionally and irrevocably
guarantees jointly and severally to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the L/C Issuer and
their Affiliates, the due and punctual payment of all present and future Obligations of the U.S.
Borrower, including, but not limited to, the due and punctual payment by the U.S. Borrower of
principal of and interest on the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations, and the due and punctual
payment of all other Obligations now or hereafter owed by



-69-









 





the U.S. Borrower under the Loan Documents, in each case as and when the same shall become due and
payable, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise, according to the terms hereof
and thereof (including all interest, costs, fees, and charges after the entry of an order for
relief against any Borrower or such other obligor in a case under the United States Bankruptcy Code
or any similar proceeding, whether or not such interest, costs, fees and charges would be an
allowed claim against the U.S. Borrower or any such obligor in any such proceeding), and (b) the
U.S. Borrower and each Guarantor which is a Subsidiary of the Canadian Borrower (including any such
Subsidiary executing an Additional Guarantor Supplement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G or
such other form acceptable to the Administrative Agent) hereby unconditionally and irrevocably
guarantees jointly and severally to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the L/C Issuer and
their Affiliates, the due and punctual payment of all present and future Obligations of the
Canadian Borrower, including, but not limited to, the due and punctual payment by the Canadian
Borrower of principal of and interest on the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations, and the due and
punctual payment of all other Obligations now or hereafter owed by the Canadian Borrower under the
Loan Documents, in each case as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise, according to the terms hereof and thereof (including all
interest, costs, fees, and charges after the entry of an order for relief against any Borrower or
such other obligor in a case under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (Canada), as amended, or the
Companies Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada), as amended, or the Winding-Up and Restructuring Act
(Canada), as amended, or any similar proceeding, whether or not such interest, costs, fees and
charges would be an allowed claim against the Canadian Borrower or any such obligor in any such
proceeding). In case of failure by any Borrower or other obligor punctually to pay any Obligations
guaranteed hereby, each Guarantor of such Borrower’s Obligations under this Section 12.1 hereby
unconditionally agrees to make such payment or to cause such payment to be made punctually as and
when the same shall become due and payable, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, or
otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the relevant Borrower or such obligor.




     Section 12.2. Guarantee Unconditional. The obligations of each Guarantor under this Section
12 shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall
not be released, discharged, or otherwise affected by:




     (a) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver, or release in respect of
any obligation of any Borrower or other obligor or of any other guarantor under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document or by operation of law or otherwise;




     (b) any modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement or any other Loan
Document;




     (c) any change in the corporate existence, structure, or ownership of, or any
insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, or other similar proceeding affecting, the Borrower
or other obligor, any other guarantor, or any of their respective assets, or any resulting
release or discharge of any obligation of any Borrower or other obligor or of any other
guarantor contained in any Loan Document;



-70-









 






     (d) the existence of any claim, set-off, or other rights which any Borrower or other
obligor or any other guarantor may have at any time against the Administrative Agent, any
Lender, the L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether or not arising in connection herewith;




     (e) any failure to assert, or any assertion of, any claim or demand or any exercise of,
or failure to exercise, any rights or remedies against any Borrower or other obligor, any
other guarantor, or any other Person or Property;




     (f) any application of any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any
obligation of any Borrower or other obligor, regardless of what obligations of the Borrower
or other obligor remain unpaid;




     (g) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any Borrower or other
obligor or any other guarantor for any reason of this Agreement or of any other Loan
Document or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment
by any Borrower or other obligor or any other guarantor of the principal of or interest on
any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligation or any other amount payable under the Loan
Documents; or




     (h) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Administrative Agent,
any Lender, the L/C Issuer, or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever that
might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge
of the obligations of any Guarantor under this Section 12.



Each Guaranty hereunder shall be a guaranty of payment and not of collection.




     Section 12.3. Discharge Only upon Payment in Full; Reinstatement in Certain Circumstances.
Each Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 12 shall remain in full force and effect until the
Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated, all Letters of Credit have expired, and the principal
of and interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable by the Borrowers and the Guarantors
under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents. If at any time any payment of the principal of
or interest on any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligation or any other amount payable by any Borrower
or other obligor or any Guarantor under the Loan Documents is rescinded or must be otherwise
restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of any Borrower or other
obligor or of any guarantor, or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 12 with
respect to such payment shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had become due but
had not been made at such time.



     Section 12.4. Subrogation. Each Guarantor agrees it will not exercise any rights which it may
acquire by way of subrogation by any payment made hereunder, or otherwise, until all the
Obligations shall have been paid in full subsequent to the termination of all the Revolving Credit
Commitments and expiration of all Letters of Credit. If any amount shall be paid to a Guarantor on
account of such subrogation rights at any time prior to the later of (x) the payment in full of the
Obligations and all other amounts payable by the Borrowers hereunder and the other Loan



-71-









 





Documents and (y) the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and expiration of all Letters
of Credit, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the
Lenders, and the L/C Issuer (and their Affiliates) and shall forthwith be paid to the
Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and L/C Issuer (and their Affiliates) or be
credited and applied upon the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement.




     Section 12.5. Waivers. Each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment,
demand, protest, and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any
time any action be taken by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the L/C Issuer, or any other
Person against any Borrower or other obligor, another guarantor, or any other Person.



     Section 12.6. Limit on Recovery. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the right of
recovery against each Guarantor under this Section 12 shall not exceed $1.00 less than the lowest
amount which would render such Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 12 void or voidable under
applicable law, including, without limitation, fraudulent conveyance law.



     Section 12.7. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount
payable by any Borrower or other obligor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is stayed
upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or such obligor, all such amounts
otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative
Agent made at the request of the Required Lenders.



     Section 12.8. Benefit to Guarantors. The Borrowers and the Guarantors are engaged in related
businesses and integrated to such an extent that the financial strength and flexibility of the
Borrower has a direct impact on the success of each Guarantor. Each Guarantor will derive
substantial direct and indirect benefit from the extensions of credit hereunder.



     Section 12.9. Guarantor Covenants. Each Guarantor shall take such action as each Borrower is
required by this Agreement to cause such Guarantor to take, and shall refrain from taking such
action as each Borrower is required by this Agreement to prohibit such Guarantor from taking.




	Section 13. Miscellaneous.





     Section 13.1. Withholding Taxes. (a) Payments Free of Withholding. Except as otherwise
required by law and subject to Section 13.1(b) hereof, each payment by each Borrower and the
Guarantors under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be made without withholding for
or on account of any present or future taxes (other than overall net income taxes on the recipient)
imposed by or within the jurisdiction in which such Borrower or such Guarantor is domiciled, any
jurisdiction from which such Borrower or such Guarantor makes any payment, or (in each case) any
political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein. If any such withholding is so
required, such Borrower or such Guarantor shall make the withholding, pay the amount withheld to
the appropriate governmental authority before penalties attach thereto or interest accrues thereon,
and forthwith pay such additional amount as may be necessary to ensure



-72-









 





that the net amount actually received by each Lender, the L/C Issuer, and the Administrative Agent
free and clear of such taxes (including such taxes on such additional amount) is equal to the
amount which that Lender, L/C Issuer, or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) would have
received had such withholding not been made. If the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, or any
Lender pays any amount in respect of any such taxes, penalties or interest, such Borrower or such
Guarantor shall reimburse the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or such Lender for that payment
on demand in the currency in which such payment was made. If such Borrower or such Guarantor pays
any such taxes, penalties or interest, it shall deliver official tax receipts evidencing that
payment or certified copies thereof to the Lender, the L/C Issuer or Administrative Agent on whose
account such withholding was made (with a copy to the Administrative Agent if not the recipient of
the original) on or before the thirtieth day after payment.




     (b) U.S. Withholding Tax Exemptions. Each Lender or L/C Issuer that is not a United States
person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall submit to the U.S.
Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date the initial Credit Event is made
hereunder or, if later, the date such financial institution becomes a Lender or L/C Issuer
hereunder, two duly completed and signed copies of (i) either Form W-8 BEN (relating to such Lender
or L/C Issuer and entitling it to a complete exemption from withholding under the Code on all
amounts to be received by such Lender or L/C Issuer, including fees, pursuant to the Loan Documents
and the Obligations) or Form W-8 ECI (relating to all amounts to be received by such Lender or L/C
Issuer, including fees, pursuant to the Loan Documents and the Obligations) of the United States
Internal Revenue Service or (ii) solely if such Lender is claiming exemption from United States
withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio
interest”, a Form W-8 BEN, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, and a
certificate representing that such Lender is not a bank for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code,
is not a 10-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code) of the
U.S. Borrower and is not a controlled foreign corporation related to the U.S. Borrower (within the
meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code). Thereafter and from time to time, each Lender and L/C
Issuer shall submit to the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent such additional duly
completed and signed copies of one or the other of such Forms (or such successor forms as shall be
adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) and such other
certificates as may be (i) requested by the U.S. Borrower in a written notice, directly or through
the Administrative Agent, to such Lender or L/C Issuer and (ii) required under then-current United
States law or regulations to avoid or reduce United States withholding taxes on payments in respect
of all amounts to be received by such Lender or L/C Issuer, including fees, pursuant to the Loan
Documents or the Obligations. Upon the request of the U.S. Borrower or the Administrative Agent,
each Lender and L/C Issuer that is a United States person (as such term is defined in Section
7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall submit to the U.S. Borrower and the Administrative Agent a
certificate to the effect that it is such a United States person.



     (c) Inability of Lender to Submit Forms. If any Lender or L/C Issuer determines, as a result
of any change in applicable law, regulation or treaty, or in any official application or
interpretation thereof, that it is unable to submit to the U.S. Borrower or the Administrative
Agent any form or certificate that such Lender or L/C Issuer is obligated to submit pursuant to



-73-









 





subsection (b) of this Section 13.1 or that such Lender or L/C Issuer is required to withdraw or
cancel any such form or certificate previously submitted or any such form or certificate otherwise
becomes ineffective or inaccurate, such Lender or L/C Issuer shall promptly notify the U.S.
Borrower and Administrative Agent of such fact and the Lender or L/C Issuer shall to that extent
not be obligated to provide any such form or certificate and will be entitled to withdraw or cancel
any affected form or certificate, as applicable.




     (d) Compliance with FATCA. Additionally, each Lender that is organized under the laws of a
jurisdiction other than the United States shall comply with any certification, documentation,
information or other reporting necessary to establish an exemption from withholding under FATCA and
shall provide any other documentation reasonably requested by the U.S. Borrower or the
Administrative Agent sufficient for the Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower to comply with
their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such applicable
reporting requirements.



     Section 13.2. No Waiver, Cumulative Remedies. No delay or failure on the part of the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, or any Lender, or on the part of the holder or holders of any
of the Obligations, in the exercise of any power or right under any Loan Document shall operate as
a waiver thereof or as an acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
power or right. The rights and remedies hereunder of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, the
Lenders, and of the holder or holders of any of the Obligations are cumulative to, and not
exclusive of, any rights or remedies which any of them would otherwise have.



     Section 13.3. Non-Business Days. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day
which is not a Business Day, the due date of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding
Business Day on which date such payment shall be due and payable. In the case of any payment of
principal falling due on a day which is not a Business Day, interest on such principal amount shall
continue to accrue during such extension at the rate per annum then in effect, which accrued amount
shall be due and payable on the next scheduled date for the payment of interest.



     Section 13.4. Documentary Taxes. Each Borrower agrees to pay on demand any documentary, stamp
or similar taxes payable in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including
interest and penalties, in the event any such taxes are assessed, irrespective of when such
assessment is made and whether or not any credit is then in use or available hereunder.



     Section 13.5. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties made herein or
in any other Loan Document or in certificates given pursuant hereto or thereto shall survive the
execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall continue in full
force and effect with respect to the date as of which they were made as long as any credit is in
use or available hereunder.



     Section 13.6. Survival of Indemnities. All indemnities and other provisions relative to
reimbursement to the Lenders and L/C Issuer of amounts sufficient to protect the yield of the



-74-









 





Lenders and L/C Issuer with respect to the Loans and Letters of Credit, including, but not limited
to, Sections 1.12, 10.3, and 13.15 hereof, shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents and the payment of the Obligations.




     Section 13.7. Sharing of Set-Off. Each Lender agrees with each other Lender a party hereto
that if such Lender shall receive and retain any payment, whether by set-off or application of
deposit balances or otherwise, on any of the Loans or Reimbursement Obligations in excess of its
ratable share of payments on all such Obligations then outstanding to the Lenders, then such Lender
shall purchase for cash at face value, but without recourse, ratably from each of the other Lenders
such amount of the Loans or Reimbursement Obligations, or participations therein, held by each such
other Lenders (or interest therein) as shall be necessary to cause such Lender to share such excess
payment ratably with all the other Lenders; provided, however, that if any such purchase is made by
any Lender, and if such excess payment or part thereof is thereafter recovered from such purchasing
Lender, the related purchases from the other Lenders shall be rescinded ratably and the purchase
price restored as to the portion of such excess payment so recovered, but without interest. For
purposes of this Section, amounts owed to or recovered by the L/C Issuer in connection with
Reimbursement Obligations in which Lenders have been required to fund their participation shall be
treated as amounts owed to or recovered by the L/C Issuer as a Lender hereunder.



     Section 13.8. Notices. Except as otherwise specified herein, all notices hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents shall be in writing (including, without limitation, notice by telecopy)
and shall be given to the relevant party at its address or telecopier number set forth below, or
such other address or telecopier number as such party may hereafter specify by notice to the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower given by courier, by United States certified or registered
mail, by telecopy or by other telecommunication device capable of creating a written record of such
notice and its receipt. Notices under the Loan Documents to any Lender shall be addressed to its

Loans Documents to any Borrower, any Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or L/C Issuer shall be

when such telecopy is transmitted to the telecopier number specified in this Section or in the
relevant Administrative Questionnaire and a confirmation of such telecopy has been received by the
sender, (ii) if given by mail, 5 days after such communication is deposited in the mail, certified
or registered with return receipt requested, addressed as aforesaid or (iii) if given by any other

upon receipt.




     Section 13.9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and
by the different parties hereto on separate counterpart signature pages, and all such counterparts
taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.



     Section 13.10. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Borrowers and
the Guarantors and their successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, and each of the Lenders, and the benefit of their respective
successors and assigns, including any subsequent holder of any of the Obligations. The Borrowers
and the Guarantors may not assign any of their rights or obligations under any Loan Document
without the written consent of all of the Lenders and, with respect to any Letter of Credit or the
Application therefor, the L/C Issuer.



     Section 13.11. Participants. Each Lender shall have the right at its own cost to grant
participations (to be evidenced by one or more agreements or certificates of participation) in the
Loans made and Reimbursement Obligations and/or Revolving Credit Commitments held by such Lender at
any time and from time to time to one or more other Persons; provided that no such participation
shall relieve any Lender of any of its obligations under this Agreement, and, provided, further
that no such participant shall have any rights under this Agreement except as provided in this
Section, and the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation or responsibility to such
participant. Any agreement pursuant to which such participation is granted shall provide that the
granting Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of each
Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents including, without limitation, the right
to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents, except
that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not agree to any modification, amendment or
waiver of the Loan Documents that would reduce the amount of or postpone any fixed date for payment
of any Obligation in which such participant has an interest. Any party to which such a
participation has been granted shall have the benefits of Section 1.12 and Section 10.3 hereof.



     Section 13.12. Assignments. (a) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible
Assignees all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including
all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it);
provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:


          (i) Minimum Amounts. (A) In the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the
assigning Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and the Loans and participation interest in L/C
Obligations at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an



-76-









 








Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and (B) in any case
not described in subsection (a)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit
Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans and participation interest in L/C Obligations
outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Revolving Credit Commitment is not then in effect,
the principal outstanding balance of the Loans and participation interest in L/C Obligations of the
assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and
Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if
“Effective Date” is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as of the Effective Date) shall not
be less than $5,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to
be unreasonably withheld or delayed);



          (ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a
proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with
respect to the Loan or the Revolving Credit Commitment assigned.


          (iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent
required by Section 13.12(a)(i)(B) and, in addition:




     (a) the consent of the Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at
the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender
or an Approved Fund;




     (b) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of the Revolving Credit if
such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment, an
Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; or




     (c) the consent of the L/C Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee
to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then
outstanding); and




     (d) the consent of the Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the
assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Swing Loans (whether or not then
outstanding).


          (iv) Assignment and Acceptance. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to
the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation
fee of $3,500, and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent
an Administrative Questionnaire.



-77-









 







          (v) No Assignment to Borrower or Parent. No such assignment shall be made to any Borrower or
any of their Affiliates or Subsidiaries.


          (vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.


          (vii) No Prohibited Transaction. No such assignment shall be made if such assignment would
result in a prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.



Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section
13.12(b) hereof, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the
assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned
by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this
Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by
such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be
entitled to the benefits of Sections 13.6 and 13.15 with respect to facts and circumstances
occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender
of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 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 13.11 hereof.



          (b) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of each
Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in Chicago, Illinois, a copy of each Assignment and
Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the
Lenders, and the Revolving Credit Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing by each
Borrower to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The
entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and each Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and the
Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof
as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.
The Register shall be available for inspection by each Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable
time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.


          (c) Any Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of
its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any such pledge or
grant to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or grant of a
security interest; provided that no such pledge or grant of a security interest shall release a
Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or secured party for
such Lender as a party hereto; provided further, however, the right of any such pledgee or grantee
(other than any Federal Reserve Bank) to further transfer all or any portion of the rights pledged
or granted to it, whether by means of foreclosure or otherwise, shall be at all times subject to
the terms of this Agreement.



-78-









 







          (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if at any time the Swing Line Lender
assigns all of its Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Loans pursuant to subsection (a)
above, the Swing Line Lender may terminate the Swing Line. In the event of such termination of the
Swing Line, the Borrowers shall be entitled to appoint another Lender to act as the successor Swing
Line Lender hereunder (with such Lender’s consent); provided, however, that the failure of the
Borrowers to appoint a successor shall not affect the resignation of the Swing Line Lender. If the
Swing Line Lender terminates the Swing Line, it shall retain all of the rights of the Swing Line
Lender provided hereunder with respect to Swing Loans made by it and outstanding as of the
effective date of such termination, including the right to require Lenders to make Revolving Loans
or fund participations in outstanding Swing Loans pursuant to Section 1.7 hereof.



     Section 13.13. Amendments. Any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents may be
amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by (a) the
Borrowers, (b) the Required Lenders, and (c) if the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent,
the L/C Issuer, or the Swing Line Lender are affected thereby, the Administrative Agent, the L/C
Issuer, or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable; provided that:




     (i) no amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 13.13 shall (A) increase any
Revolving Credit Commitment, or extend the Revolving Credit Termination Date, of any Lender
without the consent of such Lender or (B) reduce the amount of or postpone the date for any
scheduled payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan or of any Reimbursement
Obligation or of any fee payable hereunder without the consent of the Lender to which such
payment is owing or which has committed to make such Loan or Letter of Credit (or
participate therein) hereunder;




     (ii) no amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 13.13 shall, unless signed by each
Lender, change the definition of Required Lenders, change the provisions of this Section
13.13, change any provision hereof in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of
payments or reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments, release any material guarantor
(except as otherwise provided for in the Loan Documents), release the U.S. Borrower as a
Guarantor of the Canadian Borrower’s Obligations, or affect the number of Lenders required
to take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document; and




     (iii) no amendment to Section 12 hereof shall be made without the consent of the
Guarantor(s) affected thereby.



     Section 13.14. Headings. Section headings used in this Agreement are for reference only and
shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.



     Section 13.15. Costs and Expenses; Indemnification. Each Borrower agrees to pay all costs and
expenses of the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, syndication,
and administration of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and
disbursements of United States and Canadian counsel to the Administrative Agent, in connection with
the preparation and execution of the Loan Documents, and any



-79-









 





amendment, waiver or consent related thereto, whether or not the transactions contemplated herein
are consummated. Each Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and each
Lender, all costs and expenses reasonably incurred or paid by the Administrative Agent, the L/C
Issuer, such Lender, or any such holder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and
court costs, in connection with the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents (including all such
costs and expenses incurred in connection with any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy
Code involving any Borrower or any Guarantor as a debtor thereunder) or in connection with any
work-out or restructuring in respect of the Obligations hereunder. Each Borrower further agrees to
indemnify the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, each Lender, and any security trustee therefor,
and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, financial advisors, and consultants
(each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against all losses, claims, damages, penalties,
judgments, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel for any such Indemnitee and all reasonable expenses of litigation or
preparation therefor, whether or not the Indemnitee is a party thereto, or any settlement
arrangement arising from or relating to any such litigation) which any of them may pay or incur
arising out of or relating to any Loan Document or any of the transactions contemplated thereby or
the direct or indirect application or proposed application of the proceeds of any Loan or Letter of
Credit or any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any Property
owned or operated by any Borrower or any Subsidiary or any liability under any Environmental Law,
other than those which are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final
non-appealable judgment to have arisen from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party
claiming indemnification. Each Borrower, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer
or a Lender at any time, shall reimburse the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or such Lender
for any legal or other expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and
disbursements of counsel for any such Indemnitee) incurred in connection with investigating or
defending against any of the foregoing (including any settlement costs relating to the foregoing)
except if the same is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable
judgment to be directly due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be
indemnified. To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither any Borrower nor any Guarantor
shall assert, and each such Person hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, 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 or the other
Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.
The obligations of each Borrower under this Section shall survive the termination of this
Agreement.




     Section 13.16. Set-off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under the Loan
Documents or applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of
any Event of Default, each Lender, the L/C Issuer, each subsequent holder of any Obligation, and
each of their respective affiliates, is hereby authorized by each Borrower and each Guarantor at
any time or from time to time, without notice to any Borrower, any Guarantor or to any other
Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set-off and to appropriate and to apply
any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by
certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, and in whatever currency denominated, but
not including trust accounts) and any other indebtedness at



-80-









 





any time held or owing by that Lender, L/C Issuer, subsequent holder, or affiliate, to or for the
credit or the account of such Borrower or such Guarantor, whether or not matured, against and on
account of the Obligations of such Borrower or such Guarantor to that Lender, L/C Issuer, or
subsequent holder under the Loan Documents, including, but not limited to, all claims of any nature
or description arising out of or connected with the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether or not
(a) that Lender, L/C Issuer, or subsequent holder shall have made any demand hereunder or (b) the
principal of or the interest on the Loans and other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and
payable pursuant to Section 9 and although said obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be
contingent or unmatured.




     Section 13.17. Entire Agreement. The Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding of
the parties thereto with respect to the subject matter thereof and any prior agreements, whether
written or oral, with respect thereto are superseded hereby.



     Section 13.18. Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents (except as
otherwise specified therein), and the rights and duties of the parties hereto, shall be construed
and determined in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.



     Section 13.19. Severability of Provisions. Any provision of any Loan Document which is
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the
validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. All rights, remedies and
powers provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be exercised only to the extent
that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable mandatory provisions of law, and all the
provisions of this Agreement and other Loan Documents are intended to be subject to all applicable
mandatory provisions of law which may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so
that they will not render this Agreement or the other Loan Documents invalid or unenforceable.



     Section 13.20. Excess Interest. (a) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained
herein or in any other Loan Document, no such provision shall require the payment or permit the
collection of any amount of interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by
applicable law to be charged for the use or detention, or the forbearance in the collection, of all
or any portion of the Loans or other obligations outstanding under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document (“Excess Interest”). If any Excess Interest is provided for, or is adjudicated to be
provided for, herein or in any other Loan Document, then in such event (a) the provisions of this
Section shall govern and control, (b) neither any Borrower nor any guarantor or endorser shall be
obligated to pay any Excess Interest, (c) any Excess Interest that the Administrative Agent or any
Lender may have received hereunder shall, at the option of the Administrative Agent, be (i) applied
as a credit against the then outstanding principal amount of Obligations hereunder and accrued and
unpaid interest thereon (not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law), (ii)
refunded to the relevant Borrower, or (iii) any combination of the foregoing, (d) the interest rate
payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be automatically subject to reduction to
the maximum lawful contract rate allowed under applicable usury laws (the “Maximum Rate”), and this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been, and shall be, reformed and
modified to reflect



-81-









 





such reduction in the relevant interest rate, and (e) neither any Borrower nor any guarantor or
endorser shall have any action against the Administrative Agent or any Lender for any damages
whatsoever arising out of the payment or collection of any Excess Interest. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if for any period of time interest on any of any Borrower’s Obligations is calculated at
the Maximum Rate rather than the applicable rate under this Agreement, and thereafter such
applicable rate becomes less than the Maximum Rate, the rate of interest payable on such Borrower’s
Obligations shall remain at the Maximum Rate until the Lenders have received the amount of interest
which such Lenders would have received during such period on such Borrower’s Obligations had the
rate of interest not been limited to the Maximum Rate during such period.



          (b) Canadian Interest. If any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document would
obligate Canadian Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to (including
for the account of) any Lender in an amount, or calculated at a rate, that would be prohibited by
law or would result in a receipt by such Lender of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are
construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)) then, notwithstanding such provision, such amount or
rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of
interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in a receipt by
such Lender of interest at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent
necessary, as follows: (i) first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid to
such Lender under Section 1.4; and (ii) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and
other amounts required to be paid to such Lender that would constitute interest for purposes of
Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect
to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if a Lender shall have received an amount in excess of the
maximum amount permitted by that section of the Criminal Code (Canada), then Canadian Borrower
shall be entitled, by notice in writing to such Canadian Lender, to obtain reimbursement from such
Lender in an amount equal to such excess, and pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be
deemed to be an amount payable by such Lender to Canadian Borrower. Any amount or rate of interest
referred to in this Agreement with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitments to make Loans to and
issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Canadian Borrower shall be determined in accordance
with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest
over the term that the Revolving Credit Commitments to make Loans to and issue Letters of Credit
for the account of the Canadian Borrower remains outstanding on the assumption that any charges,
fees or expenses that fall within the meaning of “interest” (as defined in the Criminal Code
(Canada)) shall, if they relate to a specific period of time, be pro-rated over that period of time
and otherwise be pro-rated over the period during which such Revolving Credit Commitments are
available and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of
Actuaries appointed by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive for the purposes of such
determination.



     Section 13.21. Construction. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Loan Documents shall
not be construed more favorably in favor of any party hereto based upon which party drafted the
same, it being acknowledged that all parties hereto contributed substantially to the negotiation of
the Loan Documents. The provisions of this Agreement relating to Subsidiaries shall only apply
during such times as any Borrower has one or more Subsidiaries.



-82-









 





     Section 13.22. Lender’s and L/C Issuer ‘s Obligations Several. The obligations of the Lenders
and L/C Issuer hereunder are several and not joint. Nothing contained in this Agreement and no
action taken by the Lenders or L/C Issuer pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders
and L/C Issuer a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity.



     Section 13.23. Currency. Each reference in this Agreement to U.S. Dollars or to Canadian
Dollars (the “relevant currency”) is of the essence. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the
obligation of each Borrower and each Guarantor in respect of any amount due in the relevant
currency under this Agreement shall, notwithstanding any payment in any other currency (whether
pursuant to a judgment or otherwise), be discharged only to the extent of the amount in the
relevant currency that the Person entitled to receive such payment may, in accordance with normal
banking procedures, purchase with the sum paid in such other currency (after any premium and costs
of exchange) on the Business Day immediately following the day on which such Person receives such
payment. If the amount of the relevant currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due
to such Person in the relevant currency, the relevant Borrower or relevant Guarantor agrees, as a
separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Person against such
loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds the sum of (a) the amount
originally due to the relevant Person in the specified currency plus (b) any amounts shared with
other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such
Person under Section 13.7 hereof, such Person agrees to remit such excess to the relevant Borrower.
Unless otherwise specified herein, all references to a currency shall be deemed to refer to U.S.
Dollars.



     Section 13.24. Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. The Borrowers and the
Guarantors hereby submit to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for
the Southern District of New York and of any New York State court sitting in the Borough of
Manhattan for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the
other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. The Borrowers and the
Guarantors irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which they may
now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and
any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient
