 Section 2.08. Payments under this Agreement.

  

	 	(1)	Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Borrower shall make any payment required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent, RBC Europe or any Lender by
depositing the amount of the payment to the Borrower’s Account not later than 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on the date the payment is due. The Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Lender or RBC Europe as the case may be, promptly on the
date of receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment, an amount equal to the amount then due to each Lender or RBC Europe. If the distribution is not made on that date, the Administrative Agent shall pay interest on the amount for each day,
from the date the amount is received by the Administrative Agent until the date of distribution, at the prevailing interbank rate for late payments. 

  

	 	(2)	 Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall make Advances and other payments to the Borrower under this Agreement by
crediting the Borrower’s Account (or causing the Borrower’s Account to be credited) with the amount of the payment in the relevant currency not later than 1:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the date the payment is to be made. Advances made to pay
for Shares acquired as a consequence of acceptance of the Offer shall be disbursed only by payment to Commerzbank AG as central settlement agent under the Offer with the instructions confirmed by Commerzbank AG to hold the relevant amounts on behalf
of the Lenders and to use them only for payment simultaneously (Zug um Zug) against transfer of the

relevant Shares to the deposit account of the Borrower subject to the pledge rights of the Lenders and only under the condition that funds are available to
Commerzbank AG from such disbursement and from the Company and the Borrower to pay for all of the Shares to be acquired under the Offer to be paid for in cash. 


  

	 	(3)	If any provision of this Agreement would obligate the Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would
be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by such Lender of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)) then, notwithstanding such provisions, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have
been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in a receipt by such Lender of interest at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the
extent necessary, as follows: (1) firstly, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid to such Lender under this Section 2.08, and (2) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid
to such Lender which would constitute interest for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if a Lender shall have received an
amount in excess of the maximum permitted by that section of the Criminal Code (Canada), Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in writing to such Lender, to obtain reimbursement from such Lender in an amount equal to such excess and, pending
such reimbursements, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by such Lender to Borrower. Any amount or rate of interest referred to in this Section 2.08 shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and
principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term that the Advances remain outstanding on the assumption that any charges, fees or expenses that fall within the meaning of “interest” (as defined in the Criminal
Code (Canada)) shall, if they relate to a specific period of time, be pro-rated over that period of time and otherwise be pro-rated over the period from the Initial Funding Date to the Repayment Date and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate
of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive for the purposes of such determination. 

  

 - 21 - 








 Section 2.09. Application of Payments and Prepayments. All amounts received by
the Administrative Agent from or on behalf of the Borrower and not previously applied pursuant to this Agreement shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as follows (i) first, in reduction of the Borrower’s obligation to pay any unpaid
interest and any Fees which are due and owing; (ii) second, in reduction of the Borrower’s obligation to pay any claims or losses referred to in Section 10.06; (iii) third, in reduction of the Borrower’s obligation to pay any amounts due
and owing on account of any unpaid principal amount of Advances which are due and owing; (iv) fourth, in reduction of the Borrower’s obligation to pay any other unpaid Accommodations Outstanding which are due and owing under the Tranche A
Credit Facility; (v) fifth, in reduction of the Borrower’s obligation to pay any other unpaid Accommodations Outstanding which are due and owing under the Tranche B Credit Facility; (vi) sixth, in reduction of any other obligation of the
Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and (vii) seventh, to the Borrower or such other Persons as may lawfully be entitled to or directed to receive the remainder. 
  
 Section 2.10. Computations of Interest and Fees. 
  

	 	(1)	All computations of interest shall be made by the Administrative Agent taking into account the actual number of days occurring in the period for which such interest is payable, and
(i) if based on the Base Rate (Canada), a year of 365 days or 366 days, as the case may be; or (ii) if based on the Libor Rate or the Eurolibor Rate, on the basis of a year of 360 days. 

  

	 	(2)	All computations of Fees shall, if applicable, be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, taking into account the actual
number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such fees are payable. 

  

	 	(3)	For purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), (i) whenever any interest or Fee under this Agreement is calculated using a rate based on a number of days less than a full year,
such rate determined pursuant to such calculation, when expressed as an annual rate, is equivalent to (x) the applicable rate, (y) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for which such interest or fee is
payable (or compounded) ends, and (z) divided by the number of days comprising such calculation basis; (ii) the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement; and (iii) the rates of
interest stipulated in this Agreement are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields. 

  

 - 22 - 









	 	(4)	No provision of this Agreement shall have the effect of requiring the Borrower to pay interest (as such term is defined in section 347 of the Criminal Code of Canada) at a
rate in excess of 60% per annum, taking into account all other amounts which must be taken into account for the purpose thereof and, to such extent, the Borrower’s obligation to pay interest hereunder shall be so limited.


  
 Section 2.11. Fees. The
Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, a fee calculated at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate calculated on the unused and uncancelled portion of the Credit Facilities, calculated
daily and payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each Financial Quarter and on the date of final drawdown under the Credit Facilities. 
  
 Section 2.12. Indemnity in Favour of RBC Europe. 
  

	 	(1)	The Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds harmless all Indemnified Parties (as defined below) from and against all Liabilities (as defined below) and agrees to make payment on
demand to such parties in connection with any related Claims. “Indemnified Parties” shall mean RBC Europe, its affiliates and its directors, officers, agents and employees. “Liabilities” shall mean any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or other costs or expenses to which an Indemnified Party may become subject which arise out of or relate to or result from the issuing by RBC Europe of the Cash Confirmation Letter and any transaction, payment,
action or proceeding to or connected with the Cash Confirmation Letter or any fees and expenses related thereto. In addition to the foregoing, the Borrower agrees to reimburse each Indemnified Party for all reasonable legal or other expenses
incurred in connection with investigating, defending or participating in any action or other proceeding relating to any Liabilities (whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party to any such action or proceeding). 

  

	 	(2)	The provisions of this Section 2.12 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of all Accommodations Outstanding. The Borrower acknowledges that neither its
obligation to indemnify nor any actual indemnification by it of any Indemnified Party in respect of such Party’s losses for the legal fees and expenses shall in any way affect the confidentiality or privilege relating to any information
communicated by such Party to its counsel.

 THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS 
  
 Section 9.01. Authorization and Action.

as are delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement, together with the powers reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall act or refrain from acting (and shall be
fully protected in so doing) upon the joint instructions of the Majority Lenders and RBC Europe if applicable which instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and RBC Europe if applicable. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to take
any action which (i) exposes it to personal liability; (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or any applicable Law; (iii) would require it to become registered to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now registered; or (iv) would subject it
to taxation or additional taxation in any jurisdiction. 

  

	 	(2)	The Administrative Agent has no duties or obligations other than as set out in this Agreement and there shall not be construed against the Administrative Agent any implied duties

include further agreements of indemnity or the deposit of funds). 

  
 Section 9.02. No Liability. Neither the Administrative Agent nor its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to
any Lender and RBC Europe if applicable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them in connection with the Loan Documents except 

  

 - 51 - 








 
for its or their own gross negligence or wilful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (i) may treat any
Lender and RBC Europe if applicable as the payee of amounts attributable to its Commitment unless and until the Administrative Agent receives an agreement in the form contemplated in Section 10.08; (ii) may consult with legal counsel (including
legal counsel for the Company), independent accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in accordance with their advice; (iii) makes no warranty or representation to any
Lender or RBC Europe (if applicable) and shall not be responsible to any Lender or RBC Europe (if applicable) for the form, substance, accuracy or completeness of any Loan Document or any other documents or information made available to the Lenders
or RBC Europe (if applicable); (iv) has no duty to inspect the property or assets (including books and records) of the Company or any other Person; (v) has no duty to ascertain or inquire as to the existence of a Default or an Event of Default or

 Section 9.03. Accommodations by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent has the same rights and powers under this Agreement
with respect to its Commitment as any other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not the Administrative Agent. The term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include the
Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, underwrite an issue of securities of and generally engage in any kind of
business with, the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any Person who may do business with or own securities of such Persons, all as if it were not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account to the Lenders.

etc. 
  

	 	(1)	The Security shall be held by the Administrative Agent for the rateable benefit of the Lenders and RBC Europe (if applicable).

otherwise be required by law. 

  

	 	(3)	 If any Lender and RBC Europe (if applicable) obtains any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary or through the exercise of any right of set-off or realization of
security) on 



  

 - 52 - 









	 	 
account of Accommodations made by it (other than amounts paid pursuant to Section 10.06) in excess of its rateable share of payments obtained by all the
Lenders and RBC Europe (if applicable), the Lender shall account to and pay over to the other Lenders their rateable share and shall, upon request, immediately purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Accommodations made by the
other Lenders as shall be necessary to cause the purchasing Lender to share the excess payment rateably with the other Lenders. If all or any portion of the excess payment is recovered from the purchasing Lender, the purchase price shall be
rescinded and each Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of the recovery together with an amount equal to the Lender’s rateable share (according to the proportion that the amount the Lender’s required
repayment bears to the total amount recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount recovered. The Lender purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to
this Section 9.04 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including any right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if the Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of
the participation and the Borrower expressly acknowledges the creation of such right. 


  

	 	(4)	On request by, and at the expense of, the Borrower and provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent is authorized to take such steps and
execute such documents as may be necessary to discharge and release the Security to the extent required to allow any Disposition or Lien permitted hereunder to be consummated. 

  
 Section 9.05. Lender Credit Decisions. Each Lender
acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon
the Administrative Agent and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement. 
  
 Section 9.06. Indemnification. Each Lender shall
indemnify and save the Administrative Agent harmless (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) rateably from any claim or loss suffered by, imposed upon or asserted against it as a result of, or arising out of, the Loan Documents or any action
taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents provided that no Lender shall be liable for any part of such loss resulting from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Administrative Agent in 

  

 - 53 - 








 
its capacity as agent. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its rateable share of any
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, administration or enforcement of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, the Loan Documents (to the extent not
reimbursed by the Borrower). 
  
 Section 9.07.
Liability of the Lenders inter se. Each of the Lenders and RBC Europe (if applicable) agrees with each of the other Lenders that, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, none of the Lenders nor RBC Europe (if applicable) has or
shall have any duty or obligation, or shall in any way be liable to any of the other Lenders nor RBC Europe (if applicable) in respect of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with them. 
  
 Section 9.08. Successor Agents. The Administrative
Agent may (i) resign from its position as Administrative Agent at any time by giving written notice to the Lenders and RBC Europe (if applicable) and the Borrower; or (ii) be removed at any time for cause by the Majority Lenders (with the consent of
RBC Europe (if applicable)), such resignation or removal to be effective upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent. Upon notice of any resignation or removal, the Majority Lenders have the right to appoint a successor Administrative
Agent who (at any time that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) shall be acceptable to the Borrower, acting reasonably. If no successor Administrative Agent is appointed or has accepted the appointment within thirty days after the
retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation or removal, as the case may be, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender. Upon the acceptance
of any such appointment by a successor Administrative Agent, the successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be
discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal, as the case may be, the provisions of this Article 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent.

or becoming effective after the date hereof; or (ii) compliance by such Person with any direction, request or requirement (whether or not having the force of law) of any Governmental Entity made or becoming effective after the date hereof (being a
direction, request or requirement which lenders customarily comply with), has the effect of causing any Loss to the Lender or reducing the Lender’s rate of return by (w) increasing the cost to the Lender of performing its obligations under this

Company has paid the compensating amount to the Lender, repay the Accommodations Outstanding to such Lender and terminate the Lender’s Commitments all without affecting the Commitments or Accommodations Outstanding of any other Lender.

compensation payable by the Company including using all reasonable efforts to obtain refunds or credits in the ordinary course of its business, and any compensation paid by the Company which is later determined not to have been properly payable or
in respect of which a refund, credit or compensation has been received shall forthwith be reimbursed by such Lender to the Company.

manifest error. 

  

	 	(5)	The provisions of this Section 10.06 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of all Accommodations Outstanding. The Company acknowledges that neither its
obligation to indemnify nor any actual indemnification by it of any Lender, the Administrative Agent, RBC Europe or any other Indemnified Person in respect of such Person’s losses for the legal fees and expenses shall in any way affect the
confidentiality or privilege relating to any information communicated by such Person to its counsel.

asserted. Payment under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender, as the case may be, make written demand for it. A certificate as to the amount of such Taxes submitted to the

enure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Company, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and permitted assigns.



  

	 	(2)	Neither the Borrower nor the Company shall have the right to assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any interest in this Agreement without the prior written
consent of all the Lenders. 

  

	 	(3)	A Lender may (i) grant participations in all or any part of its interest in the Credit Facility to one or more Persons (each a “Participant”), or (ii) upon prior written
notice to the Administrative Agent and (so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) the prior written consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld) assign all or any part of its interest in the Credit
Facilities to one or more Persons (each an “Assignee”), provided that in the case of any interest which is a partial interest (other than to any Affiliate of a Lender), such partial interest is not less than €4,000,000 or the
Equivalent Amount in U.S.$ (or such lesser amount as agreed to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent). A Lender granting a participation shall act on behalf of all of its Participants in all dealings with the Borrower in respect of the Credit
Facilities and no Participant shall have any voting or consent rights with respect to any matter requiring the Lenders’ consent. The Borrower shall be under no obligation whatsoever to any Participant. In the case of an assignment, the Assignee
shall have the same rights and benefits and be subject to the same limitations under the Loan Documents as it would have if it was a Lender. 

  

	 	(4)	A Lender may deliver to the Borrower an assignment and assumption agreement substantially in the form of Schedule 12 by which an Assignee of the Lender assumes the obligations and
agrees to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, all as if the Assignee had been an original party. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of a processing fee of $3,500 and the assignment and assumption agreement, the
assigning Lender, the Company and the Borrower shall be released from its respective obligations under this Agreement (to the extent of such assignment and assumption) and shall have no liability or obligations to each other to such extent, except
in respect of matters arising prior to the assignment. 

  

	 	(5)	 Any assignment pursuant to this Section 10.08 will not constitute a repayment by the Borrower to the assigning or 



  

 - 61 - 









	 	 
granting Lender of any Accommodation, nor a new Accommodation to the Borrower by such Lender or by the Assignee, as the case may be, and the parties
acknowledge that the Borrower’s obligations with respect to any such Accommodations will continue and will not constitute new obligations. 


  
 Section 10.09. Right of Set-off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law (including general principles of common law), to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or
final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by it to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or the Company against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or the Company under any of the Loan Documents,
irrespective of whether or not the Lender has made demand under any of the Loan Documents and although such obligations may be unmatured or contingent. If an obligation is unascertained, the Lender may, in good faith, estimate the obligation and
exercise its right of set-off in respect of the estimate, subject to providing the Company with an accounting when the obligation is finally determined. Each Lender shall promptly notify the Company after any set-off and application is made by it,
provided that the failure to give notice shall not affect the validity of the set-off and application. The rights of the Lenders under this Section 10.09 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including all other rights of set-off) which the
Lenders may have. 
  
 Section 10.10.
Accommodations by Lenders. The failure of any Lender to make an Accommodation shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations in connection with such Accommodation, but no Lender is responsible for any other Lender’s failure in
respect of an Accommodation. Unless the Administrative Agent receives notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Accommodation that the Lender will not make its rateable portion of the Accommodation available to the Administrative Agent, the
Administrative Agent may assume that the Lender has made its portion so available on the date of the Accommodation and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make a corresponding amount available to the Borrower. If the Lender has not made its
rateable portion available to the Administrative Agent, the Lender shall pay the corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent immediately upon demand. If the Lender pays the corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent, the amount so paid
shall constitute the Lender’s part of the Accommodation for purposes of this Agreement. If the Lender does not pay the amount to the Administrative Agent immediately upon demand and such amount has been made available to the Borrower, the
Borrower shall pay the corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent immediately upon demand and any amount received and so reimbursed would not and will not constitute an Accommodation. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover
from the Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on the corresponding amount, for each day from the date the amount was made available to the Borrower until the date it is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to
the Administrative Agent’s cost of funds. 
  

 - 62 - 








 Section 10.11. Rateable Payments. Unless the Administrative Agent receives notice
from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that the Borrower will not make the payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made the payment in full on that date and may, in reliance
upon that assumption, distribute to each Lender on the due date an amount equal to the amount then due to the Lender. If the Borrower has not made the payment in full, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent immediately upon demand the
amount distributed to it together with interest for each day from the date such amount was distributed to the Lender until the date the Lender repays it to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the Administrative Agent’s cost
of funds. 
  
 Section 10.12. Interest on
Accounts. Except as may be expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, all amounts owed by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and to any of the Lenders, which are not paid when due (whether at stated maturity, on demand, by
acceleration or otherwise) shall (to the extent permitted by Law) bear interest (both before and after default and judgment), from the date on which such amount is due until such amount is paid in full, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal
at all times to the sum of the Base Rate (Canada) in effect from time to time, the Applicable Margin and 2%. 
  
 Section 10.13. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the
Province of Ontario and the laws of Canada applicable therein. 
  
 Section 10.14. Consent to Jurisdiction. The Borrower, the Company and each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any Ontario court sitting in
Toronto, Ontario in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Loan Documents and hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such Ontario court. The Borrower,
the Company, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent each may effectively do so, the defence of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding. The Borrower, the Company, each
Lender and the Administrative Agent agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. 
  
 Section 10.15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts (including by way of facsimile) and all of such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. 
  
 Section 10.16. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is or becomes prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, does not invalidate, affect or impair the remaining provisions thereof and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction does not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other
jurisdiction.

 GUARANTEE 
  
 Section 11.01. Guarantees and Indemnity. 
  

	 	(1)	To induce the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and RBC Europe to execute and deliver this Agreement and to make or maintain the Accommodations, and in consideration thereof, the
Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally, guarantees the due and punctual payment of, and agrees to pay when due, whether on demand, at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, all debts, liabilities and obligations of the Borrower now
or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether for principal, interest, fees or otherwise (such obligations being herein called the “Guaranteed Obligations”) and any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
(including counsel fees and disbursements) incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or RBC Europe, or any of them, in enforcing any of their rights under this guarantee. 

  

	 	(2)	The Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each of the Lenders and RBC Europe from time to time on demand by the Administrative
Agent from and against any Loss incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or any of them as a result of any of the obligations of the Borrower under or pursuant to this Agreement, any other Loan Document or the Cash Confirmation Letter
being or becoming void, voidable, unenforceable or ineffective as against the Borrower for any reason whatsoever, whether or not known to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or any of them or any other Person, the amount of such Loss being the
amount which the Person or Persons suffering such Loss would otherwise have been entitled to recover from the Borrower. 

  
 Section 11.02. Absolute Liability. The Company hereby guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the applicable Loan Document, as the case may be, and that the liability of the Company under this guarantee shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of: 
  

	 	(a)	any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or the Cash Confirmation Letter; 

  

	 	(b)	any contest by the Borrower or any other Person as to the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations or of the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents; 

  

 - 64 - 









	 	(c)	any extension of the time or times for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other indulgences the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or any other Person may grant the
Borrower or any amendment to or alteration of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or the Guaranteed Obligations; 

  

	 	(d)	the assignment of all or any part of the benefits of this guarantee; and 

  

	 	(e)	to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defence available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or any other Person in
respect of the Guaranteed Obligations or in respect of this guarantee. 

  

 - 65 - 








 Section 11.03. Remedies. The Company agrees that the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders shall not be bound to seek or exhaust their recourses against the Borrower or any other Person. 
  
 Section 11.04. Successors of the Borrower. Any change or changes in the name of the Borrower or reorganization (whether by way of
reconstruction, consolidation, amalgamation, merger, transfer, sale, lease or otherwise) of the Borrower or its businesses shall not affect or in any way limit or lessen the liability of the Company hereunder and this guarantee shall extend to the
obligations to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents of any Person, acquiring or from time to time carrying on the business of the Borrower. 
  
 Section 11.05. Amount of Guaranteed Obligations. Any account settled or stated by or between the
Administrative Agent or any Lender and the Borrower shall, in the absence of manifest error, be accepted by the Company as conclusive evidence, or if any such account has not been so settled or stated immediately before demand for payment under this
guarantee, any accounts stated by the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be accepted by the Borrower as prima facie evidence, of the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations which at the date of the
account so settled or stated is due by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be. 
  
 Section 11.06. Payment on Demand. The Company shall make payment to the Administrative Agent, for the rateable benefit of the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, of the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable by it hereunder forthwith after demand therefor is made to it after any failure to pay by the Borrower and such demand shall be deemed to
have been effectively made when an envelope containing such demand addressed to it, at its last address known to the Administrative Agent, is personally delivered to such address or, if sent by facsimile or other similar means of telecommunication,
on the Business Day next following the day on which it is so sent. The liability of the Company under this guarantee shall bear interest from the date of such demand at the rate or rates of interest then applicable to Advances of the same currency
under and calculated in the manner provided in this Agreement without duplication of any interest otherwise payable by the Borrower in respect of any Advances pursuant to this Agreement. 
  
 Section 11.07. No Subrogation. Until the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full, the Company
irrevocably waives its right to enforce any claim, remedy or other right which it may now have or hereafter acquire against the Borrower that arises from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of the Company’s obligations under this
guarantee, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, indemnification or any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders against the Borrower or any collateral which the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders now have or hereafter acquire, whether or not such claim, remedy or other right is reduced to judgment or is liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, secured or unsecured, and
whether or not such claim, remedy or other right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law. The Company further agrees that the Borrower shall be an intended third party beneficiary of the Company’s waiver contained in this
Section 11.07. If any amount is paid to the 

  

 - 66 - 








 
Company in violation of the preceding sentence and, at such time, the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ claims against the Borrower in
respect of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full, any amount paid to the Company shall be deemed to have been paid to the Company for the benefit of, and held in trust for, the Lenders, and shall immediately be paid to the
Lenders to be credited and applied upon such Guaranteed Obligations. The Company acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the transactions contemplated by this guarantee and that the waiver set forth in this Section 11.07
is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. 
  
 Section 11.08. Continuing Guarantee. This guarantee shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by
the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. The guarantee contained in this Article 11 shall remain in full force and effect
until the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full and the Commitment is terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time prior thereto the Borrower may be free from any obligations. No payment or payments made by the Borrower or any other Person
or received or collected by the Administrative Agent or any Lender from the Borrower or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any setoff or appropriation or application, at any time or from time to time, in reduction of or in
payment of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of the Company under this Article 11 which, notwithstanding any such payment or payments, shall remain liable for the unpaid and
outstanding Guaranteed Obligations until such Obligations are paid in full and the Commitment is terminated. 
  
 Section 11.09. Amendments, etc. with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations. The Company shall remain obligated under this Article
11 notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against the Company, and without notice to or further assent by the Company, any demand for payment of or reduction in the principal amount of any of the Guaranteed Obligations made by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender may be rescinded by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, and any of the Guaranteed Obligations continued, and the Guaranteed Obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any
collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, and this Agreement and any other documents executed and delivered in connection herewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Lenders (or the Majority Lenders, as the case may be) may
deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or
released. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any lien at any time held by it as security for the Guaranteed Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Article 11 or
any property subject thereto. 
  

 - 67 - 








 Section 11.10. Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. The Company waives any and
all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the guarantee contained in this Article 11 or acceptance of the
guarantee contained in this Article 11. The Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this
Article 11. All dealings between the Company or the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee
contained in this Article 11. 
  
 Section
11.11. Independent Obligations. The obligations of the Company under the guarantee contained in this Article 11 are independent of the obligations of the Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the
Company whether or not the Borrower be joined in any such action or actions. The Company waives, to the full extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof.
