ARTICLE 2.
  CREDIT FACILITY    
    


2.1.  Establishment of Credit Facility  



	2.1.1.
	Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Lenders hereby severally establish a senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") in favour of the
Borrower in accordance with their respective Lender's Commitments. 



22





 



	2.1.2.
	The
Credit Facility shall be available, at the option of the Borrower, by way of Advances of: (i) Base Rate Loans in U.S. dollars; (ii) Libor Loans in
U.S. dollars; and (iii) Letters of Credit in U.S. dollars.



	2.1.3.
	Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, no Lender shall be obligated to make its Rateable Portion of any Advance (and the Borrower shall not request any Advance to
be made) to the extent that on any relevant Borrowing Date, after giving effect to any Advance requested: (i) the aggregate principal amount of such Lender's Rateable Portion of all Loans under
the Credit Facility would exceed its Lender's Commitment at such time; or (ii) the aggregate principal amount of all Loans under the Credit Facility would exceed the Aggregate Commitment at
such time.



	2.1.4.
	The
Credit Facility is to be used for general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including for purposes of financing Permitted Acquisitions, Capital
Expenditures and working capital needs.



	2.1.5.
	At
no time shall the aggregate amount of all Loans outstanding under the Credit Facility exceed the Aggregate Commitment. 




2.2.  Revolving Nature of Operating Facility  


        The Borrower may, until the Termination Date, increase or decrease the Obligations under the Credit Facility by making drawdowns, repayments and further drawdowns
up to the Aggregate Commitment from time to time. The Aggregate Commitment and each of the Lender's Commitments shall be reduced to nil on the Termination Date, and the Borrower shall repay to the
Agent for the account of the Lenders on the Termination Date all amounts then outstanding under the Credit Facility. 


2.3.  Repayment under Credit Facility  


        The Borrower may from time to time (without premium or penalty) on any Banking Day repay to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, Loans or portions thereof
under the Credit Facility, provided that any such repayment (i) if Bank of Montreal is the only Lender hereunder (a) shall be in an amount of at least $100,000 and any greater amount
shall be an integral multiple of $10,000 and (b) shall be effected on the same Banking Day on which notice in writing is provided to the Agent if received prior to 12:00 noon (Chicago time) or
on the next succeeding Banking Day if not received by such time, in either case, such notice, once given, shall be irrevocable and binding upon the Borrower, or (ii) if Bank of Montreal is not
the only Lender hereunder, (x) shall be in an amount of at least $1,000,000 and any greater amount shall be an integral multiple of $100,000, and (y) shall only be effected on at least
three Banking Days' notice in writing to the Agent which notice, once given, shall be irrevocable and binding upon the Borrower, and (iii) any repayment of a Libor Loan other than on the
Maturity Date applicable thereto, pursuant to either clause (i) or (ii) of this section 2.3, shall be subject to the payment of the expenses payable pursuant to
section 3.8. Any repayments made under this section 2.3 shall not reduce any Lender's Commitment or the Aggregate Commitment. 


2.4.  Voluntary Reduction in Aggregate Commitment  


        The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time, by giving at least two Banking Days' notice to the Agent which notice, once given, shall be
irrevocable and binding upon the Borrower, to reduce the then applicable Aggregate Commitment to a lower amount which is not less than the principal amount of all Obligations then outstanding under
the Credit Facility. Such notice shall specify the amount of the reduction, which shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000. The amount of any such reduction so made by the Borrower shall be
permanent and irrevocable and each Lender's Commitment shall be reduced rateably. 


23





 

2.5.  Extension of Credit Facility  


        On any Banking Day which is at least 60 days prior to the Termination Date, the Borrower may request that the Termination Date be extended to the date
which is 364 days after the date on which its extension request delivered hereunder is accepted by the Lenders pursuant to this section 2.5. The decision of each Lender in this regard
shall be made in its sole discretion. The Agent shall forthwith provide a copy of such extension request to each Lender. Each Lender shall notify the Agent as to whether it consents to the extension
request within 30 days of receipt of such copy from the Agent. If any Lender does not provide such notice within such time, such Lender shall be deemed to have refused such extension. On the
earlier of: (i) the Banking Day next following the date on which the Agent is in receipt of notices from all Lenders; and (ii) the second Banking Day following the last day for receipt
by the Agent of such notices, the Agent shall give written notice to the Borrower and to each of the Lenders advising, with respect to each Lender, whether such Lender has consented to the extension.
If all of the Lenders consent to any such request, the Termination Date shall be extended to the date which is 364 days thereafter. If any Lender (for purposes of this section 2.5, each
a "Non-Consenting Lender") elects not to so extend the Termination Date (or is deemed to not so elect), the Borrower may elect to have one or more substitute Lenders (arranged by the
Borrower at its expense and which, for greater certainty, may include a Lender) assume the Lender's Commitment of such Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to section 12.9.4 (other than
clause (a) thereof). Such assignment shall be made without recourse to, warranty by (except as to title) or expense to the assigning Lender except with respect to past acts of such Lender. If
the full amount of the Lender's Commitment of the Non-Consenting Lender is not so assumed, the Borrower may elect to prepay the Non-Consenting Lender's Rateable Portion of the
Loans outstanding under the Credit Facility on, in respect of any (a) Base Rate Loan, any day; (b) Libor Loans, the applicable Interest Period end dates or such other date provided the
Borrower pays all amounts payable in connection with such prepayment pursuant to section 3.8; and (c) L/C Loans, the applicable Maturity Dates. Upon all such Loans outstanding having
been prepaid in accordance with the foregoing, the Lender's Commitment of such Non-Consenting Lender shall be cancelled and reduced to zero. If (x) the Termination Date has been
extended pursuant hereto, and (y) there remains any Non-Consenting Lender whose Lender's Commitment has not been assumed or whose Rateable Portion of the Loans outstanding under the
Credit Facility have not been prepaid, the Lender's Commitment of such Non-Consenting Lender shall be cancelled and reduced to zero on the old Termination Date and such
Non-Consenting Lender's Rateable Portion of the Loans outstanding under the Credit Facility, together with accrued interest, shall be repaid in full, in each case, on the old Termination
Date. 


24





 

2.6.  Increase in Aggregate Commitment  


        On any Banking Day which is at least 60 days prior to the Termination Date, the Borrower may request that the Aggregate Commitment be increased in an
amount of at least $10,000,000 and any greater amount shall be an integral multiple of $1,000,000. The decision of each Lender in this regard shall be made in its sole discretion. The Agent shall
forthwith provide a copy of such increase request to each Lender. Each Lender shall notify the Agent as to whether it consents to the increase request within 15 days of receipt of a copy from
the Agent, the amount of such increase such consenting Lender agrees to underwrite (up to its Rateable Portion) and, if such Lender is willing to underwrite an amount in excess of its Rateable Portion
of the requested increase, the amount of such excess. If any Lender does not provide such notice within such time, such Lender shall be deemed to have refused such increase. On the earlier of:
(i) the Banking Day next following the date on which the Agent is in receipt of notices from all Lenders; and (ii) the second Banking Day following the last day for receipt by the Agent
of such notices, the Agent shall give written notice to the Borrower and to each of the Lenders advising, with respect to each Lender, whether such Lender has consented to the increase and the amount
of such increase such consenting Lender has agreed to underwrite. The Agent shall have the sole discretion to allocate to Lenders willing to underwrite more than their Rateable Portion of the
requested increase any amounts that other Lenders are not willing to underwrite. If all of the Lenders consent to increase the Aggregate Commitment by the amount requested, subject as hereinafter
provided, the Aggregate Commitment shall be increased by the amount set forth in the request in proportion to each Lender's Rateable Portion if all Lenders agree to the full amount of the requested
increase, or otherwise in such proportion as may be determined by the Agent in its sole discretion. Prior to any increase in the Aggregate Commitment becoming effective, the parties hereto shall enter
into an agreement amending the terms of this Agreement (and any agreement delivered pursuant hereto) to give effect to such increase and to incorporate such changes as the Lenders and Borrower may
agree. If the Borrower and all Lenders are unable to agree to such changes (each disagreeable Lender for purposes of this section 2.6, a "Non-Consenting Lender"), or if any Lender
(for purposes of this section 2.6, each also a "Non-Consenting Lender") does not consent (or is deemed to not so consent) to the full amount of the increase request as aforesaid,
the Borrower may elect to have one or more substitute Lenders (arranged by the Borrower at its expense and which, for greater certainty, may include a Lender) assume the Lender's Commitment of such
Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to section 12.9.4 (other than clause (a) thereof). Such assignment shall be made without recourse to, warranty by (except as to title) or
expense to the assigning Lender except with respect to past acts of such Lender. If the full amount of the Lender's Commitment of the Non-Consenting Lender is not so assumed, the Borrower,
at its option, shall either (a) withdraw its request for such increase and pay all the Agent's and Lenders' reasonable costs and expenses incurred to consider such request, or (b) pay to
the Agent for the account of the Non-Consenting Lender, in an amount equal to, and for application against, the unassumed portion of the Non-Consenting Lender's Rateable
Portion of the Loans outstanding under the Credit Facility; provided, however, such payment shall not be applied to any L/C Loans or, at the Borrower's option, Libor Loans, until the Maturity Date
applicable thereto and, until such application, the proceeds allocated for such purpose shall be held by the Agent for the account of the Lenders and invested on behalf of the Borrower in an
interest-bearing investment (or investments) as security for the repayment of future indebtedness of the Borrower under such L/C Loan or Libor Loan, with interest earned thereon, if any, to be paid to
the Borrower on repayment of such Loans. The amount of such prepayment so made shall be permanent and irrevocable and upon all such Loans outstanding having been prepaid in accordance with the
foregoing, the Lender's Commitment of such Non-Consenting Lender shall be cancelled and reduced to zero. The Borrower shall not be entitled to make more than one request for an increase in
the Aggregate Commitment in any Fiscal Quarter and any request made but withdrawn after the Agent provides the Lenders with a copy of the request pursuant to clause (a) of this
section 2.6 shall constitute a request for such purposes.

determines in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive and binding), and provides a certificate to the Agent with respect to such determination, that with respect to such Libor Loan: 



	3.5.1.
	Libor
will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of funding such Libor Loan for the relevant Interest Period, or



	3.5.2.
	deposits
in U.S. dollars are not available to such Lender in the London interbank market in sufficient amounts in the ordinary course of business, or



	3.5.3.
	by
reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining Libor for the relevant Interest Period; 




then
the Agent shall forthwith give notice of such determination to the Borrower and each of the other Lenders, and from and after the date of commencement of such Interest Period and for so long as
such conditions shall continue to exist, the Borrower shall not have the right to obtain such Libor Loan from such Lender, and the Borrowing Notice received by the Agent in respect of such Libor Loan
shall, in respect of the Rateable Portion of such Lender, be deemed to be a request of the Borrower for a Base Rate Loan under the Credit Facility. 


27





 


3.6.  Change in Circumstances  


        If the introduction of or any change in any Applicable Law relating to any Lenders, or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental
Body or compliance by any Lenders with any request or direction of any Governmental Body: 



	3.6.1.
	subjects
such Lender to, or causes the withdrawal or termination of a previously granted exemption with respect to, any Taxes or changes the basis of taxation of payments due to
such Lender or increases any existing Taxes on payments of the Obligations (other than, in each case, Excluded Taxes);



	3.6.2.
	imposes,
modifies or deems applicable any incremental reserve, liquidity, cash margin, capital, special deposit, deposit insurance or assessment, or any other regulatory or similar
requirement against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by, or any other acquisition of funds for loans by, such Lender;



	3.6.3.
	imposes
any Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) on reserves or deemed reserves in respect of the undrawn portion of such Lender's Rateable Portion of the Credit Facility;



	3.6.4.
	imposes
on such Lender or requires there to be maintained by such Lender any capital adequacy or additional capital requirement (including, without limitation, a requirement which
affects such Lender's allocation of capital resources to its obligations) in respect of such Lender's obligations hereunder or imposes any other condition or requirement with respect to the
maintenance by such Lender of a contingent liability with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by it hereunder; or



	3.6.5.
	imposes
on such Lender any other condition or requirement with respect to this Agreement or the Credit Facility (other than Excluded Taxes); 




and
such occurrence has the effect of: 



	3.6.6.
	increasing
the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, maintaining or funding the Credit Facility, any Advance, any Loan or any portion thereof;



	3.6.7.
	reducing
the amount of the Obligations;



	3.6.8.
	directly
or indirectly reducing the effective return to such Lender under this Agreement or on its overall capital as a result of entering into this Agreement or as a result of any
of the transactions or obligations contemplated by this Agreement (other than a reduction resulting from the imposition of an Excluded Tax, including, without limitation a higher rate of income tax or
capital tax being imposed on such Lender's overall income or assets); or



	3.6.9.
	causing
such Lender to make any payment or to forego any interest, fees or other return on or calculated by reference to any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder; 



28





 





then
such Lender shall, within 90 days of such Lender actually becoming aware of such increased cost, provide notice thereof to the Agent (with such notice being accompanied by a certificate of
the Lender stating that the Lender is entitled to claim an amount under this section 3.6 in accordance with the terms hereof, setting forth the amount necessary to compensate such Lender, a
detailed explanation of the circumstances giving rise to the request of compensation and a description of the methodology used by the Lender calculating such amounts), and the Agent shall in each case
forthwith advise the Borrower accordingly and provide a copy of such certificate to the Borrower, and the Borrower shall, within 30 days of receipt of such certificate from such Lender, pay to
the Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to fully compensate such Lender for the increased cost set out in such certificate whether as a lump sum(s) or as an increase in
the Applicable Margin, as appropriate; provided, however, that a Lender claiming additional
amounts under this section 3.6 agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different applicable lending office if the making of such
a designation would avoid the need for, or materially reduce the amount of, such increased cost that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise
commercially disadvantageous to such Lender. If a Lender is not able to obviate its requirement for compensation under this section 3.6 by designating a different applicable lending office, the
Borrower may elect within such 30-day period to have one or more substitute Lenders (arranged by the Borrower at its expense) assume, and the Lender shall promptly after receipt of notice
of such election assign, its rights and obligations under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Subordination Agreement to such other Person chosen by the Borrower in accordance with
section 12.9.4 (other than clause (a) thereof) and provided that all principal, interest and other amounts owing hereunder are paid in full to such Lender, and all of the Lenders' costs
and expenses are reimbursed for such assignment, if such assignment would allow the Borrower, either at that time or in the reasonably foreseeable future, to avoid having to pay such amounts. Such
assignment shall be made without recourse to, warranty by (except as to title) or expense to the assigning Lender except with respect to past acts of such Lender. No claim for compensation may be made
by a Lender under this section 3.6 unless such Lender is also claiming such compensation from a majority of its most creditworthy customers with credit facilities and loans outstanding
thereunder similar to the Credit Facility and Loans outstanding hereunder against whom it is entitled to make such claim. The above-referenced certificate as to the amount of such increased cost,
submitted to the Borrower by the Agent on behalf of such Lender, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of compensation required to be paid
hereunder by the Borrower to the Agent for the account of such Lender. 


3.7.  Illegality  


        If the introduction of or change to any present or future Applicable Law, or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Body,
shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Loan or any relevant portion thereof or to give effect to its obligations in respect of such Loan as contemplated hereby, such Lender may,
by notice to the Borrower and to the Agent, declare that its obligations hereunder in respect of such Loan shall be terminated, and thereupon, subject as hereinafter provided in this
section 3.7, the Borrower shall prepay to such Lender forthwith (or at the end of such period to which the Lender shall in its discretion have agreed) all of the Obligations to such Lender in
respect of such Loan including all amounts payable in connection with such prepayment pursuant to section 3.8. If there are any types of Loans hereunder that are not so affected, the Borrower
may by notice in writing to the Agent convert the Loans which are affected into one of the types of Loans that are not so affected. Any repayments made under this section 3.7 shall not reduce
any Lender's Commitment or Aggregate Commitment; provided, however, at its option, the Borrower may permanently and irrevocably reduce or terminate (as the case may be) the Lender's Commitment of any
such Lender on the giving of such notice (and, for greater certainty, no other Lender shall be responsible therefor) and the Aggregate Commitment shall be reduced by the amount and at the time of any
prepayment so made. 


29









  




3.8.  Indemnity  



	3.8.1.
	The
Borrower shall indemnify each of the Agent and the Lenders and its officers, directors and employees (each, an "Indemnified Person") and shall hold each of them harmless from
and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims and reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable legal fees on a solicitor and his own client
basis) (in each case, a "Claim") that may be incurred by or asserted as a result of a claim by any third party or awarded in favour of a third party against any of them, in each case, arising out of,
related to, or in connection with, or by reason of (a) the transactions contemplated hereby, (b) any Acquisition undertaken by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (c) any
Environmental Law, including (i) the assertion of any Lien thereunder, (ii) the presence of any Hazardous Substance affecting any Real Property or any adjacent real estate, or
(iii) the Release by the Borrower or a Subsidiary of any Hazardous Substance into the environment. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section 3.8.1, the Borrower shall not
be obligated to indemnify an Indemnified Person under this section 3.8.1 for any Claim to the extent that such Claim is, or is attributable to:



	3.8.1.1.
	the
gross negligence, fraud, wilful misconduct or wilful illegal acts of any Indemnified Person;



	3.8.1.2.
	the
failure on the part of any Indemnified Person to perform any of its material covenants or obligations contained in any Loan Document to which it is a party, or a
representation or warranty made by any Indemnified Person under the Loan Documents to which it is a party or in any certificate or other document delivered by any Indemnified Person pursuant hereto or
in connection with any Loan Document being found to be false or incorrect in any material respect so as to make it materially misleading when made;



	3.8.1.3.
	a
Claim of any Lender against any defaulting Lender or any Claim of any Indemnified Person for expenses which such Indemnified Person is obligated to bear hereunder;



	3.8.1.4.
	a
Claim to the extent arising from the act of offering, selling, disposing or transferring by any Indemnified Person of all or part of its interest in the Loan Documents, other
than to the extent resulting from the Borrower compelling such transfer to a substitute Lender under sections 2.5 or 2.6;



	3.8.1.5.
	to
the extent resulting from the failure of the Agent to distribute, in accordance with the terms of any Loan Document, any amounts received and to be distributed by it
thereunder, to the extent the Borrower has satisfied all of its obligations in connection therewith; or



	3.8.1.6.
	a
Claim of the Agent arising from the act or process of syndicating or selling interests in respect of any of the Loans or Loan Documents, except to the extent such Claim arises
from any information provided or failed to be provided by the Borrower to any Indemnified Person.






	3.8.2.
	In
addition to any other indemnity contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender for all losses, damages, liabilities and reasonable
costs and out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, any such loss, damage, liability, reasonable cost or out-of-pocket expense sustained by
such Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment in whole or in part of deposits or funds borrowed or acquired by it to make its Rateable Portion of any Libor Loan), which
such Lender may sustain or incur: (i) if for any reason a utilization does not occur on a date specified therefor in any Borrowing Notice; (ii) if the Borrower fails to give any notice
required to be given by it hereunder, in the manner and at the time specified herein; (iii) if for any reason any payment of any Libor Loan, or any portion thereof, occurs on a date which is
not a Maturity Date in respect thereof; or (iv) as a consequence of any other default by the Borrower to repay any Obligations when required by the terms of this Agreement; provided that each
Lender shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate its loss, damage, liability, cost and expense attributable to such events and the Borrower's obligation to make payments hereunder will
be reduced by the amount earned by each Lender in mitigating its loss, damage, liability, cost or expense. A certificate of the relevant Lender setting forth the amounts necessary to indemnify such
Lender in respect of such losses, damages, liabilities, reasonable costs or out-of-pocket expenses shall be prima facie evidence
of the amounts owing under this section 3.8.2. 



30





 



	3.8.3.
	The
Borrower's obligations and indemnification under this section 3.8 shall survive the payment and satisfaction of all Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
The Agent and the Lenders shall hold the benefit of this indemnity in trust for those indemnified parties who are not parties to this Agreement. 




3.9.  Proceedings in Respect of Claims  



	3.9.1.
	If
a Claim is made against an Indemnified Person as to which the Borrower may have an indemnification obligation under section 3.8.1, such Indemnified Person shall notify
the Borrower of the Claim; provided that the failure to provide such notice promptly shall not release the Borrower from any of its obligations to indemnify unless (and only to the extent) such
failure shall prevent the Borrower from contesting, or materially and adversely affects the ability of the Borrower to conduct a contest of, such Claim.



	3.9.2.
	The
Indemnified Person shall be entitled, in its discretion, to require the Borrower to prosecute, at the Borrower's own cost and expense, the entire defence of such Indemnified
Person against any Claim by a third party for which such Indemnified Person is indemnified under section 3.8.1. In addition, upon delivery by the Borrower to such Indemnified Person of a
written acknowledgement of the Borrower's obligations to indemnify such Indemnified Person in accordance with the terms of this Agreement in respect of such Claim, the Borrower shall be entitled, at
its own expense, to participate in, and, to the extent that the Borrower desires, to assume and control the defence thereof through its own counsel (who shall be subject to the reasonable approval of
the Indemnified Person); provided, however, that if the Borrower is controlling any proceedings, the Borrower shall keep such Indemnified Person fully apprised of the status of such proceedings and
shall provide such Indemnified Person with all information with respect to such proceedings as such Indemnified Person shall reasonably request. The Borrower must indicate its election to assume such
defence by written notice to the Indemnified Person within 30 days following receipt of Indemnified Person's notice of the Claim, or in the case of a third party Claim which requires a shorter
time for response then within such shorter period as specified in the Indemnified Person's notice of Claim, provided that such Indemnified Person has given the Borrower notice thereof. The Indemnified
Person may participate at its own expense and with its own counsel (provided that all Indemnified Parties shall use the same counsel) in any proceeding conducted by the Borrower in accordance with the
foregoing; provided the Borrower shall in any event remain liable hereunder in respect of the Claim. The Borrower shall not be entitled to assume and control (but may, at its own expense, participate
in) the defence of any such Claim if and to the extent that: 



31





 


	3.9.2.1.
	in
the reasonable opinion of such Indemnified Person acting in good faith,



	3.9.2.1.1.
	such
proceeding involves any risk of imposition of criminal liability on such Indemnified Person; or



	3.9.2.1.2.
	such
proceeding involves any risk of impairment to the reputation of the Indemnified Person in any material respect; or



	3.9.2.1.3.
	the
control of such action, suit or proceeding would involve an actual or potential conflict of interest, such that it is advisable for such Indemnified Person to be
represented by separate counsel; or



	3.9.2.2.
	such
proceeding involves Claims not fully indemnified by the Borrower which the Borrower and the Indemnified Person have been unable to sever from the indemnified Claim(s). 






Notwithstanding
the first paragraph of this section 3.9.2, in any of the circumstances set out in sections 3.9.2.1 or 3.9.2.2, the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to assume
the defence of such Claim with counsel selected by it (provided that all Indemnified Parties shall use the same counsel) and the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of
such counsel shall be borne by the Borrower; provided, that the Borrower shall in any event remain liable hereunder in respect of the indemnified Claim. 



	3.9.3.
	Except
in the circumstances described in section 3.9.2.1.3, the Borrower may enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim in respect of which it
has an indemnity payment obligation under section 3.8.1 without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, except in the case of a settlement involving an admission of liability of
such Indemnified Person, in which case the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person shall be obtained, provided that if such Indemnified Person withholds its consent to such settlement and the
required admission of liability of such Indemnified Person is not in favour of a Governmental Body other than a court, would not give rise to the imposition of any penalty or sanction against the
Indemnified Person by any Governmental Body, is not in respect of any criminal liability and would not otherwise impair the reputation of the Indemnified Person in any material respect, the maximum
amount of liability of the Borrower to the Indemnified Person with respect to such Claim shall not exceed the amount of the proposed settlement rejected by such Indemnified Person. Unless an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, no Indemnified Person shall enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect to any Claim for which the Borrower has in writing agreed to fully
indemnify under section 3.8.1 without the prior written consent of the Borrower, which consent may be withheld in the Borrower's sole discretion, unless such Indemnified Person waives its right
to be indemnified under section 3.8.1, with respect to such Claim.



	3.9.4.
	Each
Indemnified Person shall supply the Borrower with such information and documents reasonably requested by the Borrower as are necessary or advisable for the Borrower to
participate in any action, suit or proceeding to the extent permitted above, and the Borrower shall reimburse the Indemnified Person for the reasonable costs and out-of-pocket
expenses of supplying such information and documents, all within a reasonable period of time following the Borrower's request therefor. 



32





 



	3.9.5.
	Upon
payment in full of any Claim pursuant to section 3.8.1 to or on behalf of an Indemnified Person, the Borrower, without any further action, shall be subrogated to
any and all claims that such Indemnified Person may have relating thereto (other than claims in respect of insurance policies maintained by such Indemnified Person at its own expense). Each
Indemnified Person agrees, at the Borrower's reasonable request and expense, to give such further assurances or agreements and to otherwise cooperate with the Borrower to enable the Borrower to
vigorously pursue such claims.



	3.9.6.
	Any
amount payable to an Indemnified Person pursuant to section 3.8 shall be paid to such Indemnified Person within 30 days of the receipt (or deemed receipt) by the
Borrower of a written request therefor from such Indemnified Person, accompanied by a written statement describing in reasonable detail the basis for such indemnity and the computation of the amount
so payable; provided that payment of an indemnity in respect of a third party Claim need not be made until payment is due, whether by compromise, settlement, court proceedings, arbitration or
otherwise, from the Indemnified Person in respect of such third party Claim. 




3.10. Evidence of Indebtedness  


        The Agent shall maintain and keep, at its Branch of Account, accounts showing the amount of all Loans advanced by each of the Lenders, from time to time and the
dates thereof and the interest, fees and other charges accrued thereon or applicable thereto from time to time, and all payments of principal (including prepayments), interest and fees and other
payments made by the Borrower to the Agent from time to time under the Credit Facility. Such accounts maintained by the Agent on behalf of itself and each of the Lenders shall be  prima facie evidence of
the matters recorded therein. 



3.11. Several Obligations  


        The obligations of each Lender under this Agreement are several. No Lender shall be responsible for any failure or alleged failure on the part of any other Lender
to duly perform its obligations under the terms of this Agreement or any Loan Document, nor shall the obligations of the Borrower to any Lender be diminished or affected by any failure or alleged
failure on the part of any other Lender to duly perform its obligations under the terms of this Agreement or any Loan Document. 


 
 

ARTICLE 4.
  LETTERS OF CREDIT    
    


4.1.  Procedures Relating to Letters of Credit  



	4.1.1.
	Each
Letter of Credit shall be issued by the L/C Lender in its name as an L/C Loan.



	4.1.2.
	The
Borrower may not request the issuance of any Letter of Credit having a term which would extend beyond the Termination Date; provided that the L/C Lender may, with the consent
of all Lenders in their sole discretion, issue Letters of Credit having a term which would extend beyond the Termination Date. 



33





 



	4.1.3.
	At
no time shall the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding under the Credit Facility exceed the L/C Limit. 




4.2.  Reimbursement  



	4.2.1.
	The
Borrower unconditionally and irrevocably authorizes the L/C Lender to pay the amount of any demand made on the L/C Lender under and in accordance with the terms of any Letter
of Credit on request without requiring proof of the Borrower's agreement that the amount so demanded was due and notwithstanding that the Borrower may dispute the validity of any such demand or
payment.



	4.2.2.
	The
Borrower shall reimburse the L/C Lender on request for any amounts paid by it from time to time as contemplated by section 4.2.1 and, without limiting the foregoing, the
Borrower shall indemnify and save the L/C Lender harmless on demand from and against any and all other losses (including lost profits), costs, damages, expenses, claims, demands or liabilities which
it may suffer or incur arising in any manner whatsoever in connection with the making of any such payments as contemplated by section 4.2.1 (including, without limitation, in connection with
proceedings to restrain the L/C Lender from making, or to compel the L/C Lender to make, any such payment). 




4.3.  L/C Lender Not Liable  



	4.3.1.
	The
L/C Lender shall not have any responsibility or liability for, or duty to inquire into, the authorization, execution, signature, endorsement, correctness, genuineness or legal
effect of any certificate or other document presented to the L/C Lender pursuant to any Letter of Credit other than to ensure that any request for payment under a Letter of Credit is in compliance
with the terms thereof and the Borrower fully and unconditionally assumes all risks with respect to the same and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all risks of the acts or omissions
of any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit with respect to the use by any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit provided the L/C Lender complied with the terms of such Letter of Credit. The L/C Lender
shall not be responsible:



	4.3.1.1.
	for
the validity of certificates or other documents delivered under or in connection with any Letter of Credit that appear on their face to be in order, even if such certificates
or other documents should in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged provided the L/C Lender complied with the terms of such Letter of Credit;



	4.3.1.2.
	for
errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages by mail, cable, telegraph, telefax or otherwise, whether or not they are in code;



	4.3.1.3.
	for
errors in translation or for errors in interpretation of technical terms or for errors in the calculation of amounts demanded under any Letter of Credit;



	4.3.1.4.
	for
any failure or inability of the L/C Lender or any other Person to make payment under any Letter of Credit as a result of any Applicable Law or by reason of any control or
restriction rightfully or wrongfully exercised by any Person asserting or exercising governmental or paramount powers; or 






34





 


	4.3.1.5.
	for
any other consequences arising in respect of a failure by the L/C Lender to honour a Letter of Credit due to causes beyond the control of the L/C Lender; 






and
none of the above shall affect or impair any of the rights or powers of the Lenders hereunder or the obligations of the Borrower under section 4.2.2. In furtherance and not in limitation of
the foregoing provisions, it is agreed that any payment made by the L/C Lender in good faith under and in accordance with the terms of a Letter of Credit shall be binding upon the Borrower and shall
not result in any liability of the Agent or any of the Lenders to the Borrower and shall not lessen the obligations of the Borrower under section 4.2.2. 



	4.3.2.
	Notwithstanding
the provisions of this section 4.3, the Borrower shall not be responsible for, and the L/C Lender shall not be relieved of responsibility for, any wilful
misconduct, gross negligence, fraud or illegal acts of the L/C Lender or the failure of the L/C Lender to comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit. 




4.4.  Letter of Credit Fees  


        The Borrower shall pay the Letter of Credit Fee to the L/C Lender in advance in quarterly instalments (except that the first such instalment shall be in respect
of the period from the date the Letter of Credit is issued to the last day of the then current Fiscal Quarter) for the period from and including the date of issuance of the Letter of Credit to and
including the stated expiry date thereof, on an amount equal to the stated amount of the Letter of Credit, with the first such payment due and payable on the date of issuance of the applicable Letter
of Credit. Upon a change to the Letter of Credit Fee for any Fiscal Quarter, occurring as a result of an adjustment to the Applicable Margin for Libor Loans for such Fiscal Quarter or as a result of
changes to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provided for in this Agreement, the Letter of Credit Fee shall be retroactively adjusted to the first day of the then current Fiscal Quarter
(or, in the case of the first instalment in respect of the applicable Letter of Credit Fee, to the date of issuance of the Letter of Credit) or the date of this Agreement, as the case may be. Where
there has been an adjustment to the Applicable Margin for Libor Loans, then on the date on which the next instalment in respect of the Letter of Credit Fee is due and payable or if no such fee is
payable, within 10 Banking Days of the receipt of notice from one party to the other requesting payment, or refund of an overpayment, of a Letter of Credit Fee: (i) the L/C Lender shall pay to
the Borrower an amount equal to any overpayment by the Borrower in respect of the Letter of Credit Fee for the then current Fiscal Quarter; or (ii) the Borrower shall pay to the L/C Lender an
amount equal to any underpayment by the Borrower in respect of the Letter of Credit Fee for the then current Fiscal Quarter, as the case may be. If the Letter of Credit is drawn, in whole or in part,
is withdrawn or otherwise ceases to have effect (other than due to an Event of Default) prior to its stated expiry date, the L/C Lender shall reimburse the Borrower for any overpaid Letter of Credit
Fee within 30 days of such occurrence. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such early expiry, the amount of such overpaid Letter of Credit Fee shall be paid by
the L/C Lender to the Agent to be applied thereby in accordance with section 9.3. 


4.5.  Overdue Amounts  


        Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, if the Borrower shall fail to reimburse the L/C Lender in respect of any payments made by the L/C Lender
under a Letter of Credit as contemplated in section 4.2.2, the L/C Lender may at any time thereafter notify the Agent (which shall thereupon deliver a similar notice to each of the Lenders
which has a Lender's Commitment) of such failure and such notification shall be deemed to have been delivery of a Borrowing Notice in the amount of such payments on and subject to the terms hereof.
Each Lender that has a Lender's Commitment shall forthwith credit the account of the L/C Lender with such Lender's Rateable Portion of such payments, the amount of such payments shall be deemed to
constitute a Base Rate Loan made by the Lenders under the Credit Facility and which is
outstanding, and, without limiting the terms and conditions applicable to such Base Rate Loan, shall be due and payable when a Base Rate Loan is due and payable in accordance with the provisions
hereof. 


35





 

4.6.  Acceleration  


        Upon the Agent making a declaration under section 9.2, the maximum amount of the contingent liability of the L/C Lender under any Letter of Credit which is
then outstanding shall immediately become due and payable notwithstanding that the L/C Lender has not at such date been required to make payment under any such Letter of Credit. Any such amount
deposited with the L/C Lender shall be held by the L/C Lender and invested on behalf of the Borrower in an interest-bearing investment (or investments) as security for the repayment of future
indebtedness of the Borrower to the L/C Lender in respect of Letters of Credit which are drawn down pending the expiry of all outstanding Letters of Credit. 


4.7.  Conflict  


        Each Letter of Credit shall be subject to the L/C Lender's customary letter of credit terms and procedures from time to time in effect and shall be in a form
acceptable to the L/C Lender. The Borrower shall execute and deliver such standard form applications, agreements, indemnities, bonds and other assurances as the L/C Lender may reasonably require from
time to time with respect to Letters of Credit (each, a "Letter of Credit Agreement"). A Letter of Credit shall in no event contain provisions requiring the L/C Lender to satisfy itself, prior to
payment thereunder, as to any conditions for a drawing thereunder other than the presentation of prescribed documents. If the provisions set forth in the L/C Lender's customary letter of credit
documentation set forth terms beyond or inconsistent with that set forth herein, the provisions of this Agreement in respect thereof shall prevail. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there is any
inconsistency between the terms of a Letter of Credit Agreement, this Agreement and the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits as most recently published by the International Chamber of
Commerce (the "UCP") or The International Standby Practices as most recently approved by the International Chamber of Commerce Banking Commission (the "ISP"), then the terms of the UCP or ISP, as
applicable, shall prevail to the extent of the inconsistency. 


 
 

ARTICLE 5.
  INTEREST AND FEES    
    


5.1.  Interest Rates  



	5.1.1.
	Base
Rate Loans shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.



	5.1.2.
	Libor
Loans shall bear interest at Libor plus the Applicable Margin. 




5.2.  Calculation and Payment of Interest  



	5.2.1.
	Interest
on Base Rate Loans shall accrue from day to day, both before and after default, demand, maturity and judgment, shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of
days elapsed and on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and shall be payable to the Agent for the account of the Lenders in U.S. dollars in arrears on the first
Banking Day of each month. For greater certainty, where the rate applicable to a Base Rate Loan is changed, interest shall be charged for the day on which such change is effective on the basis of the
new rate. 



36





 



	5.2.2.
	Interest
on Libor Loans shall accrue from day to day, both before and after default, demand, maturity and judgment, shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days
elapsed and on the basis of a year of 360 days, and shall be payable to the Agent for the account of the Lenders in U.S. dollars in arrears on the last day of the relevant Interest
Period.

required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made; 



38

binding obligation of the Borrower and each Guarantor which is a party to it enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject only to the qualifications set out in the opinion of
Borrower's counsel delivered pursuant to section 8.1.4.5;

by the Borrower or any Guarantor in the performance or observance of any covenant, condition or obligation contained in any Loan Document to which it is a party that does

and (y) knowledge of the existence of such default by one of the chief executive officer, chief financial officer, controller, general counsel or secretary of the Borrower, unless:



	(i)
	such

	the
Borrower is diligently and in good faith advancing to remedy such default; and

principal amount exceeding $5,000,000 shall be declared to be due and payable prior to the stated maturity thereof; provided, in each case, that it shall not be an Event of Default if the Borrower or
applicable Material Subsidiary is diligently contesting such acceleration or declaration in good faith by appropriate proceedings or has fully repaid the indebtedness accelerated or declared due but
it is acknowledged that in such circumstances such acceleration or declaration shall nevertheless be a Default which would enable the Agent to restrict payments to holders of Subordinated Debt
pursuant to section 7.2.6;

	the
Borrower admits in writing or by way of a public or press announcement its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due or otherwise acknowledges in writing or by

declared by a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be null and void; or (iii) the validity or enforceability of any Loan Document is contested by the Borrower; or (iv) the

ARTICLE 10.
  GUARANTY    
    


10.1.    Guaranty  



	10.1.1.
	Each
Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all Obligations of the
Borrower now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise (such Obligations being such Guarantor's "Guaranteed Obligations"), and agrees
to pay any and all expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Agent or any Lender in enforcing any rights under such Guaranty.



	10.1.2.
	Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor's liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations that would be owed by
the Borrower to the Agent or the Lenders under the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar
proceeding involving the Borrower.



	10.1.3.
	Notwithstanding
anything contained herein, in any Guaranty, or in any of the other Loan Documents to the contrary, if the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder exceed the
limitations imposed under any Fraudulent Transfer Law, then such obligations of the Guarantor shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its
obligations subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any applicable provisions of comparable state law
(collectively, the "Fraudulent Transfer Laws"), in each case after giving effect to all other liabilities of the Guarantor, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under the Fraudulent Transfer
Laws (specifically excluding, however, any liabilities of the Guarantor in respect of indebtedness to the Borrower or any other Person that is an Affiliate of the Borrower to the extent that such
indebtedness would be discharged in an amount equal to the amount paid by the Guarantor in respect of the Obligations) and after giving effect (as assets) to the value (as determined under the
applicable provisions of the Fraudulent Transfer Laws) of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution of the Guarantor pursuant to Applicable Law or pursuant to the terms
of any agreement.



	10.1.4.
	Each
of the Guarantors respectively acknowledges and confirms that as a Subsidiary of the Borrower it is obtaining material economic and other benefit from the financial and other
accomodations being extended by the Lenders to the Borrower under the Loan Documents, and that, accordingly, it is in its own economic self-interest to grant this Guaranty as a material
inducement to the Lenders. 




10.2.    Guaranty Absolute  


        Each Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or
order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Agent or the Lenders with respect thereto. The obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty
are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of the Borrower or any other Guarantor under the Loan Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted
against such Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Borrower or any other Guarantor or whether the Borrower or any other Guarantor is joined in
any such action or actions. The liability of such Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives to the
extent permitted by applicable law, any defenses it may now or hereinafter have in any way relating to, any or all of the following: 


59





 

	(a)
	any
lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;



	(b)
	any
change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to
departure from any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, or otherwise;



	(c)
	any
change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; or



	(d)
	any
other circumstance or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Agent or any Lender that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the
Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor or surety. 




        This
Guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations made by the Guarantors is
rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. 



10.3.    Waiver  


        Each Guarantor hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guaranty
and any requirement that the Agent or any Lender exhaust any right or take any action against the Borrower or any other Person. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect
benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Loan Documents and that the waiver set forth in this section 10.3 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. 



10.4. Continuing Guaranty; Assignments  


        This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the indefeasible payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations,
(b) be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns and (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Lenders, the Agent and their respective successors and assigns.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any Lender may assign or transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including, without limitation, all or
any portion of its Lender's Commitment and the Advances owing to it) to any assignee or transferee pursuant to and in accordance with section 12.9, and such assignee or transferee shall
thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender herein or otherwise. 


60





 

10.5.    Subrogation  



        No Guarantor shall exercise any rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against the Borrower or any other Guarantor that arise from the existence, payment,
performance or enforcement of any Guarantor's Obligations under this Agreement
or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of
the Agent or any Lender against the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including,
without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Borrower or any other Guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment
or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Loans and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash and the Aggregate
Commitment shall have expired or terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence at any time prior to the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed
Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Agent to be credited
and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or to be held as
collateral for any Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts payable under this Guaranty thereafter arising. If (i) any Guarantor shall make payment to the Agent or any Lender of all or any part
of the Guaranteed Obligations, and (ii) all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall be paid in full in cash, the Agent and the Lenders will, at
such Guarantor's request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by
subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment by such Guarantor. 


 
 

ARTICLE 11.
  THE AGENT AND THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE CREDIT FACILITY    
    


11.1.    Appointment and Authorization  



	11.1.1.
	Each
Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agent to be its attorney in its name and on its behalf to exercise such rights or powers granted to such Lender under
this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Subordination Agreement on the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Lender hereby authorizes
the Agent to execute, as agent for and on its behalf, any of the other Loan Documents and the Subordination Agreement wherein it is expressly stipulated that the Agent is acting in such capacity, and
each Lender agrees to be bound thereby as principal.



	11.1.2.
	As
to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Subordination Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement thereof), the
Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting)
upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all of the Lenders. The Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Agent to liability
in such capacity, which could result in the Agent's incurring any costs and expenses not contemplated by this Agreement or which is contrary to this Agreement or Applicable Law. 



61





 



	11.1.3.
	The
Agent shall have no duties or obligations other than as expressed herein, which duties are solely of a mechanical and administrative nature. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the Agent does not undertake, and the Lenders relieve the Agent from, any implied duties, responsibilities, obligations or functions and there shall not be construed against the Agent
any implied covenants or terms, whether in respect of matters arising prior to, on, or following the date of this Agreement. The relationship between the Agent and the Lenders is that of agent and
principal only, and the Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lenders. 




11.2.    Duties and Obligations of Agent  


        Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees (and, for purposes hereof, the Agent shall be deemed to be contracting as agent for and
on behalf of such Persons) shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or the
Subordination Agreement (whether before, on or after the date of this Agreement) except for its or their own gross negligence or wilful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Agent: 



	(a)
	may
assume that there has been no assignment or transfer by any Lender of its rights hereunder unless and until all of the requirements of section 12.9 have been complied with;



	(b)
	may
consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it
in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts;



	(c)
	shall
incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or the Subordination Agreement by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other
instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile or other means of electronic communication) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties or by acting upon any
representation or warranty of the Borrower or any of the Guarantors made or deemed to be made hereunder or thereunder;



	(d)
	may
assume that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing unless it has actual knowledge to the contrary;



	(e)
	may
rely as to any matters of fact which might reasonably be expected to be within the knowledge of any Person upon a certificate signed by or on behalf of such Person;



	(f)
	does
not make any warranty or representation to any Lender nor shall it be responsible to any Lender for the accuracy or completeness of the data made available to any of the Lenders
in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement, or for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement;



	(g)
	shall
not have any duty to ascertain or to enquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents
or the Subordination Agreement on the part of the Borrower or any of the Guarantors or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of the Borrower or any of its Material Subsidiaries; 



62





 



	(h)
	shall
be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Majority Lenders as it deems
appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take such
action; and



	(i)
	shall
not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents
or the Subordination Agreement or any instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto or for any failure of the Borrower or any of the Guarantors to perform its obligations hereunder or
thereunder. 




11.3.    Prompt Notice to the Lenders  


        The Agent shall provide to the Lenders copies of all information, notices and reports given to the Agent by the Borrower as soon as practicable after receipt of
the same, except information, notices and reports (i) relating solely to the role of Agent hereunder, (ii) distributed directly by the Borrower to the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement,
or (iii) otherwise considered by the Agent to be irrelevant or immaterial to the Lenders or to any particular category or group thereof. 


11.4.    Agent's Authority to Deal with Borrower  



        With respect to its own participation in the Credit Facility, the Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may
exercise the same as though it were not the Agent. The Agent may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Affiliate of any of them and
any Person which may do business with any of them, all as if the Agent were not the Agent hereunder and without any duties to account therefor to the Lenders or to any other Person. 



11.5.    Dealings by Borrower with Agent  


        Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, the Borrower shall deal with the Agent in lieu of the Lenders for all purposes of this Agreement. The Borrower may
rely, and shall be fully protected in so relying, without any obligation to inquire into the correctness thereof, upon any action taken, notice, direction, waiver, consent, determination,
communication or agreement by the Agent purporting to be on behalf of the Majority Lenders or the Lenders hereunder, as the case may be, any of which shall, as regards the Borrower, be deemed to be an
action, notice, direction, waiver, consent, determination, communication or agreement of the Majority Lenders or the Lenders, as applicable. 


11.6.    Independent Credit Decisions  


        Each Lender acknowledges that it has itself been, and will continue to be, solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal of and investigations into
the financial condition, creditworthiness, condition, affairs, status and nature of the Company. Accordingly, each Lender confirms with the Agent that it has not relied, and will not hereafter rely,
on the Agent (i) to check or enquire on its behalf into the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of any information provided by the Borrower or any other Person under or in connection with this
Agreement or the transactions herein contemplated (whether or not such information has been or is hereafter distributed to such Lender by the Agent), or (ii) to assess or keep under review on
its behalf the financial condition, creditworthiness, condition, affairs, status or nature of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly
required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent hereunder, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business,
operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries which may come into the possession of the Agent or any of its officers,
directors, employees or agents. Each Lender acknowledges that a copy of this Agreement, each of the other Loan Documents the Subordination Agreement and the Wells Fargo Consent has been made available
to it for review and each Lender acknowledges that it is satisfied with the form and substance of the same. 


63





 

11.7.    Indemnification  


        Each Lender hereby agrees to indemnify the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), in accordance with its Rateable Portion, from and against any and
all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted
against the Agent at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following repayment in full of all Obligations) in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any of the other Loan
Documents or the Subordination Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Agent hereunder or thereunder or in respect hereof or thereof; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of
such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Agent's gross negligence or wilful misconduct. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent promptly upon demand for its Rateable Portion of any out-of-pocket expenses (including
counsel fees) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preservation of any rights of the Agent or the Lenders as against the Borrower under, or the enforcement of, or legal advice in respect of
rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Subordination Agreement, to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower. The
indemnity in this section 11.7 shall survive the payment and satisfaction of all Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 


11.8.    Successor Agent  


        The Agent may, as hereinafter provided, resign at any time by giving 30 days prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such
resignation, the Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor agent (the "Successor Agent") which shall be one of the Lenders. If no Successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Lenders
and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent's giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a Successor
Agent from among the Lenders acceptable to the Borrower acting reasonably. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a Successor Agent, such Successor Agent shall thereupon succeed
to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its further duties and obligations as Agent
under this Agreement. The retiring Agent shall cooperate with the Successor Agent in the performance of its duties for a reasonable period of time after such resignation. After any retiring Agent's
resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article 11 shall continue to enure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent hereunder. 


64

	11.9.1.
	Subject

thereunder by the Lenders or to any such action that requires the consent or other determination of the Lenders, the action taken by and the consent or other determination given or made by the
Majority Lenders shall, except to the extent that this Agreement expressly provides to the contrary, constitute the action or consent or other determination of the Lenders herein or therein referred
to, and the Agent may exercise its powers under section 11.1 based upon such action, consent or other determination.

waiver and any consent by the Agent or any Lenders under any provision of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or the Subordination Agreement may be given subject to any
conditions thought fit by the Person giving that waiver or consent. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the instance and for the purpose for which it is given. 




11.10.      Funding of Advances

	Each
Lender shall, not later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the relevant Borrowing Date, credit the Agent's account specified in the Agent's notice given under this
section 11.10 with such Lender's Rateable Portion of each Advance in immediately available funds. The Agent will, as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving such funds from the Lenders
and upon fulfilment of all applicable conditions set forth in this Agreement, make the full amount of such funds available to the Borrower by crediting the Borrower's account maintained with the Agent
at the Branch of Account (or causing such account to be credited).



	11.10.3.
	Unless
the Agent has been notified by a Lender by 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the proposed Borrowing Date of any Loan requested by the Borrower that such Lender will not
make available to the Agent its Rateable Portion of such Loan, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion of the Loan available to the Agent on the Borrowing Date in accordance with
the provisions hereof and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent such Lender shall not have so made
its Rateable Portion of a Loan available to the Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Agent forthwith on demand such Lender's Rateable Portion of the Loan and all reasonable costs and expenses
incurred by the Agent in connection therewith together with interest thereon (at the rate payable hereunder by the Borrower in respect of such Loan) for each day from the date such amount is made
available to the Borrower until the date such amount is paid to the Agent, provided, however, that notwithstanding such obligation if such Lender fails to so pay, the Borrower shall, without prejudice
to any rights the Borrower may have against such Lender, repay such amount to the Agent forthwith after demand therefor by the Agent. The amount payable to the Agent pursuant hereto shall be as set
forth in a certificate delivered by the Agent to such Lender and the Borrower (which certificate shall contain reasonable details of how the amount payable is calculated) and shall be  prima facie
evidence of the amount owing. If such Lender makes the payment to the Agent required herein, the amount so paid (otherwise than in respect
of interest and such costs, charges and expenses of the Agent) shall constitute such Lender's Rateable Portion of the Loan for purposes of this Agreement. If the Agent has been notified by a Lender
that such Lender will not make available to the Agent its Rateable Portion of any Loan, the Agent shall have no obligation to make available such amount to the Borrower under any provision of this
Agreement or any Loan Document.



	11.10.4.
	The
failure of any Lender to fund its Rateable Portion of a Loan shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to fund its Rateable Portion of the Loan
on the relevant Borrowing Date and nothing in this Agreement shall limit the rights and remedies that the Borrower, the Agent or any Lender may have against a defaulting Lender. 




11.11.      Remittance of Payments  



	11.11.1.
	As
soon as practicable after receipt of any notice of payment by the Borrower hereunder, the Agent shall give notice to each Lender of the amount of the payment to be made to it
on such day and all other relevant particulars of such payment. Subject to section 11.15, as soon as practicable after receipt of any repayment or prepayment of any Loans under the Credit
Facility or any payment of interest or any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder, the Agent shall remit to each Lender its Rateable Portion of such payment or prepayment and its respective
entitlement, if any, to any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder. 



66





 



	11.11.2.
	If
the Agent, on the assumption that it will receive on any particular date a payment of principal, interest or fees hereunder, remits any amount to the relevant Lender and the
Borrower fails to make such payment, each such Lender agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand the amount so received by it together with all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the
Agent in connection therewith (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) and interest thereon at the rate and calculated in the manner applicable to the Loan in respect of which such payment was
made for each day from the date such amount is remitted to the relevant Lender. The amount payable to the Agent pursuant hereto shall be as set forth in a certificate delivered by the Agent to each
such Lender, which certificate shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 




11.12.      Redistribution of Payments  



        Except as otherwise expressly contemplated in this Agreement, a Lender (a "Remitting Bank") which obtains any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, by way of
set-off or otherwise) on account of its portion of a Loan which has not been repaid to the other Lender in accordance with their respective Rateable Portions shall, and the Borrower hereby
irrevocably authorizes any such Lender to, remit such payment or portion thereof to the Agent for redistribution to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Rateable Portions. In any such case,
the Remitting Bank, upon such payment by it to the Agent, shall be deemed for all purposes not to have received from the Borrower that payment so remitted to the Agent, and the Lenders (the "Receiving
Bank") receiving such payment or portions thereof upon a redistribution thereof by the Agent shall be deemed for the purposes hereof to have received such payment or portion thereof (as the case may
be) from the Borrower. If all or part of any such payment made by such Remitting Bank shall be recovered by the Borrower from such Remitting Bank, such amount so paid by such Remitting Bank to the
Agent shall forthwith be repaid by the Receiving Bank to the Agent (for the benefit of the Remitting Bank). 


11.13.      Notification of Default  


        Each Lender shall promptly notify the Agent, and the Agent shall promptly notify each of the Lenders, of any event of which it has actual notice which constitutes
a Default or an Event of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have actual notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default unless the Agent has received notice from any of the Lenders or
the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing the default and stating that the notice is a "Notice of Default". 


11.14.      Taking and Enforcement of Remedies  



	11.14.1.
	Each
of the Lenders hereby acknowledges that, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the remedies provided hereunder, under the other Loan Documents and under the
Subordination Agreement to the Lenders are for the benefit of the Lenders collectively and acting together and not severally and further acknowledges that its rights hereunder and thereunder are to be
exercised collectively by the Agent upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders. Accordingly, notwithstanding any of the provisions contained herein or therein, each of the Lenders hereby covenants
and agrees that it shall not be entitled to take any action with respect to the Credit Facility, including, without limitation, any election of remedies in respect of an Event of Default hereunder,
but that any such action shall be taken only by the Agent upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders as provided herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the absence of instructions from the
Majority Lenders (or, to the extent section 11.9.3 is applicable, all of the Lenders) where the Agent has requested instructions and in its sole opinion the exigencies of the situation warrant
such action, the Agent may without notice to or consent of the Lenders take such action on behalf of the Lenders as it deems appropriate or desirable in the interests of the Lenders. Each of the
Lenders further covenants and agrees that, upon any such instructions being given to the Agent by the Majority Lenders, it shall cooperate fully with the Agent to the extent requested by the Agent in
any remedial action hereunder including, without limitation, the appointment of a receiver and manager to act for their collective benefit. Each Lender covenants and agrees to do all acts and things
and to make, execute and deliver all agreements and other instruments, including, without limitation, any instruments necessary to effect any registrations, so as to fully carry out the intent and
purposes of this section 11.14.1. 



67





 



	11.14.2.
	Each
Lender hereby covenants and agrees that it has not heretofore sought, taken, accepted or received and shall not hereafter seek, take, accept or receive any security for any
of the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or under any other document, instrument, writing or agreement ancillary hereto or thereto other than such
security as is provided hereunder or thereunder and shall not enter into any agreement with any of the parties hereto or thereto relating in any manner whatsoever to the Credit Facility, unless all of
the Lenders shall at the same time obtain the benefit of any such security or agreement.



	11.14.3.
	Each
of the Lenders and the Borrower further covenants and agrees that all proceeds from the exercise of the rights and remedies provided hereunder, under the Loan Documents and
under the Subordination Agreement, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, are held for the benefit of all of the Lenders and, after deduction therefrom of all costs of enforcement, shall be shared
among the Lenders proportionately based upon the respective aggregate amounts of the Obligations which are outstanding to each of the Lenders at the relevant time or times of sharing. To the extent
any Lender receives or is entitled to receive any amount hereunder in excess of the amount of the Obligations owed to it hereunder it shall hold such excess in trust on behalf of and for the benefit
of the other Lenders entitled thereto.



	11.14.4.
	Each
of the Lenders agrees with each of the other Lenders that if it exercises any right of set-off in accordance with the provisions hereof (or otherwise pursuant to
Applicable Law) in connection with any Obligations, it shall promptly so advise the Agent and each of the other Lenders and, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Lenders shall share all such
set-offs in accordance with the provisions of section 11.14.3 hereof, provided that none of the Lenders shall be liable hereunder to any of the other Lenders by reason of failure to
exercise or validly exercise any right of set-off or by reason of any restriction upon any such sharing. 




11.15.      Adjustments to Reflect Rateable Portions  


        All Loans outstanding under the Credit Facility shall be maintained as between the Lenders according to their respective Rateable Portions, except to the extent
that the Agent deems any variations therefrom to be immaterial and except that the L/C Lender shall solely be responsible for making L/C Loans. The Agent shall determine all adjustments to amounts
required to be advanced by the Lenders or to amounts of payments to which the respective Lenders are entitled to reflect as nearly as practicable the respective Rateable Portions of the Lenders under
the Credit Facility. 


68





 

11.16.      No Partnership  


        Nothing contained in this Agreement and no action taken by the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders a partnership, association, joint
venture or other collective entity. 


 
 

ARTICLE 12.
  GENERAL    
    


12.1.    Reliance and Non-Merger  


        All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties of the Borrower made herein or in any other Loan Document or in any certificate or other document signed
by any of its directors or officers and delivered by or on behalf of either of them pursuant hereto or thereto are material, shall be deemed to have been relied upon by the Agent and each Lender
notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by the Agent, the Lenders or Lender's Counsel or any employee or other representative of any of them and shall survive the execution and
delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents until there are no Loans outstanding and the Lenders shall have no further obligation to make Advances hereunder. For clarity, this
section 12.1 shall in no way affect the survival of those provisions of this Agreement or any Loan Document which by their terms are stated to survive termination of this Agreement. 


12.2.    Confidentiality  


        Each of the Agent and each of the Lenders will maintain on a confidential basis (except as otherwise permitted hereunder or as required by Applicable Law) all
information relating to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries provided to it hereunder by and on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that this section 12.2 shall
not apply to any information which (i) was lawfully in the public domain at the time of communication to the Agent or such Lender, (ii) lawfully enters the public domain through no fault
of the Agent or such Lender subsequent to the time of communication to the Agent or such Lender, (iii) was lawfully in the possession of the Agent or such Lender free of any obligation of
confidence at the time of communication to the Agent or such Lender, or (iv) was lawfully communicated to the Agent or such Lender free of any obligation of confidence subsequent to the time of
initial communication to the Agent or such Lender. 



12.3.    No Set-Off by the Borrower  


        The amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be made in full and shall not be subject to any deduction, withholding, set-off or counterclaim by
the Borrower for any reason whatsoever. 


12.4.    Employment of Experts  


        The Agent may, at any time and from time to time, at its cost if not a responsibility of the Borrower in section 5.4, retain and employ legal counsel,
independent accountants and other experts in order to perform or assist it in the performance of its rights and powers under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Subordination Agreement and
will advise the Borrower at any time that it elects to do so. 


69







   12.5. Reliance by the Lenders  


        The Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon any schedule, certificate, statement, report, notice or other document or written communication
(including any facsimile, telex or other means of electronic communication) of the Borrower believed by them to be genuine and correct. 



12.6. Notices  


        Any notice or other communication required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given by facsimile or other means of electronic
communication or by hand-delivery or courier as hereinafter provided. Any such notice, if delivered by courier, shall be deemed to be received on the next Banking Day after the date of
delivery thereof, or if sent by facsimile or other means of electronic communication, shall be deemed to have been received on the day sent if sent prior to 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on any
Banking Day or otherwise on the next succeeding Banking Day. Notice of change of address shall also be governed by this section 12.6. Notices and other communications shall be addressed as

12.7. Time

        Whether before or after the happening of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall at its own expense do, make, execute or deliver, or cause to be done, made,
executed or delivered by its Subsidiaries or other Persons, all such further acts, documents and things in connection with the Credit Facility and the Loan Documents as the Agent may reasonably
require from time to time for the purpose of giving effect to the Loan Documents all within a reasonable period of time following the request of the Agent. 


12.9. Assignment  



12.9.1.    This
Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Subordination Agreement shall enure to the benefit of and be binding on the parties hereto and thereto, their respective
successors and any assignee or transferee of some or all of the parties' rights or obligations under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Subordination Agreement as permitted under this
section 12.9. 


12.9.2.    The
Borrower shall not assign or transfer all or any part of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or the Subordination Agreement without
the prior written consent of all of the Lenders, which consent may be arbitrarily withheld and any such assignment or transfer without consent shall be null and void. 


12.9.3.    Any
Lender (a "Grantor") may grant participations in all or part of its rights and obligations in respect of the Credit Facility, the Loan Documents and the Subordination
Agreement to any other Person (a "Participant"), at such times and upon such terms as it may deem fit, without any obligation to obtain any consent of the Borrower, provided in each case that: 


	(a)
	the
Grantor shall remain fully liable for all of its obligations and responsibilities hereunder to the same extent as if such participation had not been granted; and



	(b)
	the
Grantor shall administer the participation of the Participant and neither the Participant nor the Borrower shall have any rights against or obligations to, or deal directly with,
each other in respect of the participation of the Participant. 



71





 




12.9.4.    Any
Lender (an "Assignor") may assign or transfer all or part of its rights in respect of the Credit Facility, the Loan Documents and the Subordination Agreement to, and may have
its corresponding obligations in respect thereof assumed by any other Lender or any Affiliate of the Assignor or any Person (the "Assignee") at such times and upon such terms as it may deem fit, in
each case, but only after obtaining the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall be provided as soon as practicable, and provided
further that the Borrower's consent shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), provided in each case that: 


	(a)
	without
the Borrower's further prior written consent, no such assignment or transfer shall be permitted that would cause the Borrower to be obligated to make any payments under
section 3.5, 3.6 or 3.7 or any withholdings under the Internal Revenue Code arising on and as at the date of, and as a result of, such assignment or transfer that it was not otherwise obligated
to pay to the Assignor on such date or would not be obligated to pay on such date but for such assignment or transfer;



	(b)
	the
Assignor and the Assignee shall enter into an assignment and assumption agreement (the "Assignment Agreement") substantially in the form of Schedule 12.9.4,
or otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and the Assignor, whereby inter alia the Assignee agrees to be bound by the
Subordination Agreement, this Agreement, and all other Loan Documents relating to the obligations of the Lenders in the place and stead of the Assignor to the extent that the rights and obligations of
the Assignor shall have been assigned or transferred to and assumed by the Assignee, and shall deliver a copy of the Assignment Agreement so executed to the Agent;



	(c)
	the
Assignor shall pay to the Agent for the Agent's own account an administrative fee of $3,500 concurrently with the delivery of the Assignment Agreement to the Agent;



	(d)
	the
Agent shall execute the Assignment Agreement and shall notify the Borrower of the proposed Assignee and the rights and obligations to be assigned or transferred to the Assignee.
The Agent and (if the consent of the Borrower to the assignment or transfer is required) the Borrower shall execute and deliver the Assignment Agreement, and the Agent shall then deliver a copy of the
executed Assignment Agreement to the Assignee and the Assignor. The Borrower shall execute and deliver such other assurances as may be reasonably requested by the Agent to confirm the release and
discharge provided for in clause (e) below;



	(e)
	upon
execution of the Assignment Agreement by the Assignor, the Assignee, the Agent and (if the consent of the Borrower to the assignment or transfer is required) the Borrower, the
assignment or transfer to the Assignee shall be effective upon the date provided in the Assignment Agreement, and the Assignee shall thereafter be and be treated as a Lender for all purposes of this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Subordination Agreement and shall be entitled to the full benefit hereof and thereof to the extent of such benefits as are assigned or transferred to it by
the Assignor and subject to the obligations of the Assignor to the same extent as if the Assignee were an original party in respect of the rights and obligations assigned or transferred to and assumed
by it, and the Assignor in respect of such assignment or transfer shall be released and discharged accordingly other than in respect of claims of the Borrower or a Guarantor against the Assignor
relating to an event or circumstances arising, existing or occurring prior to such assignment or transfer; 



72





 



	(f)
	as
soon as practicable after the assignment or transfer shall have become effective the Agent shall prepare and distribute to the Lenders and to the Borrower an amendment to
Schedule 1.1.65 reflecting the adjustments to the Lender's Commitments after such transfer or assignment, to which amendment the Borrower hereby agrees; and



	(g)
	the
Assignee (other than an Assignee that is an Affiliate of the Assignor) of any Loan outstanding hereunder shall be entitled to receive the principal monies and all interest and all
other monies owing under this Agreement in respect thereof free from all equities or rights of set-off or counterclaim between the Borrower and the original Lender or Lenders that advanced
such Loan and any intermediate Person entitled thereto and all Persons may act accordingly. 




12.9.5.    Any
assignment, transfer or grant of a participation by a Lender as contemplated by this section 12.9 shall not constitute a repayment by the Borrower to the Grantor or
Assignor, as the case may be, of the assigned, transferred or participated portion of the Credit Facility, nor an Advance to the Borrower by the Assignee or Participant, as the case may be, and the
parties acknowledge that the Borrower's obligations hereunder with respect to the assigned, transferred or participated portion of Loans will continue and not constitute new obligations. 




12.10. Exchange of Information  


        Each Lender may provide to any proposed assignee, transferee or participant such information concerning the financial position and the operations of the Company
as, in the opinion of such Lender, may be relevant or useful in connection with the Credit Facility or any portion thereof proposed to be acquired by such assignee, transferee or participant, provided
that each recipient of such information agrees not to disclose such information to any other Person and to be bound by the terms of section 12.2. 


12.11. Counterparts  


        This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such separate counterparts shall together
constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of
this Agreement. 


12.12. Entire Agreement  


        The Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto pertaining to the matters therein set forth and supersede and replace any prior
understandings or arrangements pertaining to the Credit Facility. There are no warranties, representations or agreements between the parties in connection with such matters except as specifically set
forth or referred to in the Loan Documents. 


12.13. Liability of Arranger  


        The Borrower, Agent, each Guarantor and each Lender acknowledges and agrees that the Arranger has only acted in an administrative capacity to facilitate the
establishment and/or maintenance of the Credit Facility and has no responsibility to any of them for (a) the adequacy, accuracy, completeness and reasonableness of any representation, warranty,
undertaking, agreement or statement contained in this Agreement, any Loan Document or the Subordination Agreement, or (b) any loss, cost, expense, damage or liability suffered or incurred by
any of them; provided, however, that the Arranger shall have the full benefit of any indemnity of the Borrower or Guarantor provided hereunder or under any other Loan Document, including (without
limitation) section 3.8 hereof.
