Protective Advances), the aggregate Dollar Equivalent Amount of principal amount of Canadian Protective Advances outstanding hereunder would exceed, as determined on the date of such proposed Canadian Protective Advance, and is not known by the
Agent to exceed, together with Canadian Overadvances described in Section 2.04(c), 10% of the Canadian Revolving Commitments at such time, or to exist for more than thirty (30) consecutive Business Days or more than forty-five

thereof. The making of a Protective Advance on any one occasion shall not obligate any Agent to make any Protective Advance on any other occasion. At any time that the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 have been satisfied or
waived, the Agent may request the Applicable Lenders with respect to a Borrower Group to make a Revolving Loan to repay a Protective Advance made by the Agent to a Borrower within such Borrower Group. At any other time, the Agent may require the
Applicable Lenders with respect to such Borrower Group to fund their risk participations described in Section 2.04(b). 
 (b) Upon the making of a Protective Advance by the Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default) to a Borrower within such Borrower Group, each Applicable Lender with respect to such
Borrower Group shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, unconditionally and irrevocably to have purchased from the Agent without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Protective Advance in
proportion to its Applicable Percentage. From and after the date, if any, on which any Applicable Lender with respect to a Borrower Group is required to fund its participation in any Protective Advance to a Borrower within such Borrower Group
purchased hereunder, the Agent shall promptly distribute to such Applicable Lender, such Applicable Lender’s Applicable Percentage of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Agent in respect of such
Protective Advance. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Section 2.04 or this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents and whether or not a Default or Event of Default exists at the time, the Agent may require all Applicable Lenders with respect to a Borrower Group to honor requests or deemed requests by the Borrowers within
such Borrower Group for Revolving Loans at a time that an Overadvance Condition with respect to such Borrower Group exists or which would result in an Overadvance Condition with respect to such Borrower Group and (i) each U.S. Revolving Lender
shall be obligated to continue to make its Applicable Percentage of any such U.S. Overadvance Loan up to a maximum amount outstanding equal to its U.S. Revolving Commitment, so long as such U.S. Overadvance is not known by the Agent to exceed,
together with U.S. Protective Advances described in Section 2.04(a), 10% of the U.S. Revolving Commitments at such time or to exist for more than thirty (30) consecutive Business Days or more than forty-five (45) Business Days
in any twelve month period and (ii) each Canadian Revolving Lender shall be obligated to continue to make its Applicable Percentage of any such Canadian Overadvance Loan up to a maximum amount outstanding equal to its Canadian Revolving
Commitment so long as such Canadian Overadvance is not known by the Agent to exceed, together with Canadian Protective Advances described in Section 2.04(a), 10% of the Canadian Revolving Commitments at such time or to exist for more
than thirty (30) consecutive Business Days or more than forty-five (45) Business Days in any twelve month period. 

SECTION 2.05 Swingline Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Applicable Swingline Lender with
respect to a Borrower Group may in its discretion, and in reliance upon the agreements of the Applicable Lenders with respect to such Borrower Group set forth in this Section 2.05, make available Swingline Loans to the Borrowers within such
Borrower Group from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding U.S. Swingline Loans exceeding $85,000,000,
(ii) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent Amount of principal amount of outstanding Canadian Swingline Loans exceeding $6,000,000, (iii) the total U.S. Revolving Exposures exceeding the lesser of the total U.S. Revolving Commitments and the
U.S. Borrowing Base, or (iv) the total Canadian Revolving Exposures exceeding the lesser of the total Canadian Revolving Commitments and the 

  
 - 63 -









 
Canadian Borrowing Base; provided that no Applicable Swingline Lender shall be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits
and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers within each Borrower Group may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans. To request a Swingline Loan for a Borrower within a Borrower Group, the Borrower Agent shall notify
the Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by a Swingline Borrowing Request), not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, or, with respect to Canadian Swingline Loans, 1:00 p.m., Toronto, Ontario time, on the day of a proposed Swingline
Loan to such Borrower. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day), amount and currency (which shall be Dollars in the case of any Swingline Loan made to a U.S. Borrower or Dollars or
Canadian Dollars in the case of a Swingline Loan made to a Canadian Borrower) of the requested Swingline Loan. The Agent will promptly advise the Applicable Swingline Lender of any such notice received from the Borrower Agent. The Applicable
Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the Borrowers within a Borrower Group by means of a credit to the Applicable Funding Account of such Borrower Group or otherwise in accordance with the instructions of the Borrower Agent
(including, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e), by remittance to the Applicable Issuing Bank, and in the case of repayment of another Loan or fees or
expenses as provided by Section 2.18(c), by remittance to the Agent to be distributed to the Lenders) on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.  
 (b) To facilitate administration of the Revolving Loans, the Revolving Lenders and the Agent agree (which agreement is solely among them, and not for the benefit of or enforceable by any Borrower) that in
order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, settlement among them as to the Revolving Loans and the Swingline Loans and the Protective Advances shall take place on a periodic basis in accordance with this
clause (b). The Agent shall request settlement (a “Settlement”) with the Applicable Lenders on at least a weekly basis, or on a more frequent basis if so determined by the Agent, (A) on behalf of the Applicable Swingline
Lender, with respect to each outstanding Swingline Loan to a Borrower within the applicable Borrower Group and (B) with respect to collections received from such Borrower Group, in each case, by notifying the Applicable Lenders of such
requested Settlement by telecopy, telephone, or other similar form of transmission, of such requested Settlement, no later than 2:30 p.m. New York City time, or with respect to Canadian Lenders, 2:30 p.m. Toronto, Ontario time, on the date of such
requested Settlement (the “Settlement Date”). Each Applicable Lender (other than the Applicable Swingline Lender, in the case of Swingline Loans to the Borrowers within a Borrower Group) shall make the amount of such Applicable
Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans to such Borrowers within such Borrower Group with respect to which Settlement is requested available to the Agent, to such account of the Agent as the
Agent may designate, not later than 3:30 p.m., New York City time, or with respect to Canadian Lenders, 3:30 p.m. Toronto, Ontario time, on the Settlement Date applicable thereto, which may occur before or after the occurrence or during the
continuation of a Default or an Event of Default and whether or not the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article IV have then been satisfied without regard to the any minimum amount specified therein. Such amounts made
available to the Agent shall be applied against the amounts of the applicable Swingline Loan and, together with the portion of such Swingline Loan representing the Applicable Swingline Lender’s pro rata share thereof, shall constitute Revolving
Loans of the Applicable Lenders. If any such amount is not made available to the Agent by any Applicable Lender on the Settlement Date applicable thereto, the Agent shall, on behalf of the Applicable Swingline Lender with respect to each outstanding
Swingline Loan to a Borrower within the applicable Borrower Group, be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Applicable Lender together with interest thereon at, with respect to U.S. Swingline Loans, the Federal Funds Effective Rate,
and with respect to Canadian Swingline Loans, the Canadian Overnight Rate, in each case, for the first three days from and after the Settlement Date and thereafter at the interest rate then applicable to Floating Rate Loans to such Borrower Group in
the applicable currency in which such Swingline Loan is denominated. Between Settlement Dates the Agent may pay over to the Applicable Swingline Lender any payments received by the Agent, 

  
 - 64 -









 
which in accordance with the terms of this Agreement would be applied to the reduction of the Revolving Loans of the Borrowers within the Borrower Group for which such Applicable Swingline Lender
is the Applicable Swingline Lender, for application to the Applicable Swingline Lender’s Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans to such Borrower Group. If, as of any Settlement Date, collections received since the then immediately preceding
Settlement Date have been applied to the Applicable Swingline Lender’s Revolving Loans to such Borrower Group, the Applicable Swingline Lender shall pay to the Agent for the accounts of the Applicable Lenders, to be applied to the outstanding
Revolving Loans of such Applicable Lenders to such Borrower Group, an amount such that each Applicable Lender shall, upon receipt of such amount, have, as of such Settlement Date, its Applicable Percentage of the Revolving Loans to such Borrower
Group. During the period between Settlement Dates, the Applicable Swingline Lender with respect to Swingline Loans to the Borrowers within such Borrower Group, the Agent with respect to Protective Advances to such Borrower Group and each Applicable
Lender with respect to its Revolving Loans to such Borrower Group shall be entitled to interest thereon at the applicable rate or rates payable under this Agreement. 
 (c) In addition, the Applicable Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, or, with respect to Canadian Swingline Loans, 1:00 p.m., Toronto,
Ontario time, on any Business Day require the Applicable Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding that were made to the Borrowers within the Borrower Group with respect to which
such Applicable Lenders issued Commitments. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans to such Borrower Group in which the Applicable Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Agent will give notice
thereof to each Applicable Lender, specifying in such notice such Applicable Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans to such Borrower Group. Each Applicable Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon
receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Agent, for the account of the Applicable Swingline Lender, such Applicable Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans to such Borrower Group. Each Applicable Lender
acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans made to the Borrowers within the Borrower Group with respect to which such Applicable Lender has issued a Commitment pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement,
withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Applicable Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made
by such Applicable Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Applicable Lenders), and the Agent shall promptly pay to the Applicable Swingline Lender the amounts so received
by it from the Applicable Lenders. The Agent shall notify the Borrower Agent of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph. Any amounts received by the Applicable Swingline Lender from the Borrowers with the
applicable Borrower Group (or other party on behalf of any such Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Applicable Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Agent;
any such amounts received by the Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Agent to the Applicable Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Applicable Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear;
provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Applicable Swingline Lender or the Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to any Borrower with such Borrower Group for any
reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan made to a Borrower within a Borrower Group pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrowers within such Borrower Group of any default in the payment thereof.

 SECTION 2.06 Letters of Credit. (a) General. On and after the Effective Date,
each Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a U.S. Letter of Credit issued hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and for purposes hereof will be deemed to have been issued on the Effective Date. Subject
to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) each Applicable Issuing Bank with respect to a Borrower Group agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Applicable Lenders to such Borrower Group set forth in this
Section 2.06, (A) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date to but not including the 5th Business Day, prior to the Maturity Date, upon the request of the Borrower Agent, to issue Letters of
Credit denominated in Dollars only (or, in the case of Letters of Credit issued under the Canadian Commitments, Dollars or Canadian Dollars, as requested by a Canadian Borrower) and issued on sight basis only for the account of one or more of the
Borrowers of such Borrower Group (or any other Subsidiary of the Company so long as the Company is a joint and several co-applicant, and references to the Company or a “Borrower” in this
Section 2.06 shall be deemed to include reference to such Subsidiary) and to amend or renew Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with Section 2.06(b), and (B) to honor drafts under the Letters of
Credit, and (ii) the Applicable Lenders severally agree to participate in the Letters of Credit issued pursuant to Section 2.06(d) for the account of the Borrowers within such Borrower Group (including, with respect to U.S.
Revolving Lenders, those Letters of Credit with respect to which the Company is the co-applicant with a Subsidiary of the Company). Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrowers’ ability to
obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrowers may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. 

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the
amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower Agent shall hand deliver or facsimile (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Applicable Issuing Bank) to the
Applicable Issuing Bank and the Agent, at least two (2) Business Days, in advance of the requested date of issuance (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank), a request to issue in the form of Exhibit E
attached hereto (each a “Letter of Credit Request”). To request an amendment, extension or renewal of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower Agent shall submit such a request on its letterhead, addressed to the Applicable Issuing Bank
(with a copy to the Agent) at least two (2) Business Days, in advance of the requested date of amendment, extension or renewal, identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the proposed date (which shall
be a Business Day) and other details of the amendment, extension or renewal. Requests for issuance, amendment, renewal or extension must be accompanied by such other information as shall be necessary to issue, amend, renew or extend such Letter of
Credit. If requested by the Applicable Issuing Bank, the Borrower Agent also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. In the event of any
inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower Agent to, or entered into by the Borrower Agent or any Borrower
within a Borrower Group with, the Applicable Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit issued for the account of a Borrower within such Borrower Group, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. A Letter of Credit shall be issued,
amended, renewed or extended if (and on issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension
(i) the U.S. Exposure shall not exceed $50,000,000, (ii) the Dollar Equivalent Amount of Canadian LC Exposure shall not exceed $10,000,000, (iii) the total U.S. Revolving Exposures shall not exceed the lesser of the total U.S.
Revolving Commitments and the U.S. Borrowing Base, and (iv) the total Canadian Revolving Exposures shall not exceed the lesser of the total Canadian Revolving Commitments and the Canadian Borrowing Base. Promptly after the delivery of any
Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, 

  
 - 66 -









 
the Applicable Issuing Bank will also deliver to the Borrower Agent and the Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. Upon receipt of such Letter of Credit or
amendment, the Agent shall notify the Applicable Lenders, in writing, of such Letter of Credit or amendment, and if so requested by an Applicable Lender the Agent will provide such Applicable Lender with a copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.
With respect to commercial Letters of Credit, each Applicable Issuing Bank shall, on the first Business Day of each week, submit to the Agent, by facsimile, a report detailing the daily aggregate total of commercial Letters of Credit issued by such
Applicable Issuing Bank for the previous calendar week. 
 (c) Expiration Date. Each standby Letter of Credit shall expire
not later than the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (ii) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date; provided that any standby Letter of Credit
may provide for the automatic extension thereof for any number of additional periods each of up to one year in duration (none of which, in any event, shall extend beyond the date referred to in clause (ii) of this paragraph (c)). Each
commercial Letter of Credit shall expire on the earlier of (i) 180 days after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (ii) the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date. 

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) for
the account of a Borrower within a Borrower Group and without any further action on the part of the Applicable Issuing Bank or the Applicable Lenders, the Applicable Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Applicable Lender, and each Applicable Lender
hereby acquires from such Applicable Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Applicable Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and
in furtherance of the foregoing, each Applicable Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Agent, for the account of the Applicable Issuing Bank, such Applicable Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement
made by such Applicable Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.06, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded
to any Borrower within such Borrower Group for any reason. Each Applicable Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit issued for the account of a Borrower
within a Borrower Group is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or
termination of the Commitments to such Borrower Group, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 
 (e) Reimbursement. If the Applicable Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit issued for the account of a Borrower within a Borrower Group (including, with
respect to U.S. Borrowers, those Letters of Credit with respect to which the Company is the co-applicant with a Subsidiary of the Company), the Borrowers within such Borrower Group shall reimburse such
LC Disbursement by paying to the Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, or with respect to Canadian LC Disbursements, 12:00 noon Toronto, Ontario time, on the Business Day immediately
following the date the Borrower Agent receives notice of such LC Disbursement under paragraph (g) of this Section 2.06; provided that the Borrower Agent may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein,
request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.05 that such payment (i) owing by the U.S. Borrowers be financed with an ABR Loan or U.S. Swingline Loan or (ii) owing by a Canadian Borrower be financed with a Canadian Base
Rate Loan or Canadian Swingline Loan (if the Letter of Credit drawn upon was denominated in Dollars) or Canadian Prime Rate Loan or Canadian Swingline Loan (if the Letter of Credit drawn upon was denominated in Canadian Dollars), in each case, in an
equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the obligation of the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group to make such payment 

  
 - 67 -









 
shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Floating Rate Loan or Swingline Loan. If the Borrowers within a Borrower Group fail to make such payment when due, the Agent shall notify each
Applicable Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrowers within such Borrower Group in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each
Applicable Lender shall pay to the Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such
Applicable Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Applicable Lenders), and the Agent shall promptly pay to the Applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from
the Applicable Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Agent of any payment from the Borrowers within a Borrower Group pursuant to this paragraph, the Agent shall distribute such payment to the Applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that
Applicable Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Applicable Issuing Bank, then to such Applicable Lenders and such Applicable Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. 

(f) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrowers within each Borrower Group to reimburse LC Disbursements with
respect to Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower Group (including, with respect to U.S. Borrowers, those Letters of Credit with respect to which the Company is the co-applicant with a
Subsidiary of the Company) as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.06 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all
circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit
proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other
document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or
equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, any Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Agent, the Applicable Lenders nor any Applicable Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or
responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any
error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in
interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of such Applicable Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse such Applicable Issuing Bank from liability to
the Borrowers within a Borrower Group to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by any Borrower within
such Borrower Group that are caused by such Applicable Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly
agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Applicable Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Applicable Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each
such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of
Credit, the Applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and
make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. 

  
 - 68 -









 (g) Disbursement Procedures. The Applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following
its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit issued by such Applicable Issuing Base. Such Applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Agent and the Borrower Agent by telephone
(confirmed by facsimile) of such demand for payment and whether such Applicable Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrowers
within the applicable Borrower Group of their obligation to reimburse such Applicable Issuing Bank and the Applicable Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 
 (h) Interim Interest. If an Applicable Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of any Letter of Credit issued for the account of a Borrower within a Borrower Group (including, with
respect to U.S. Borrowers, those Letters of Credit with respect to which the Company is the co-applicant with a Subsidiary of the Company), then, unless the Borrowers within such Borrower Group shall reimburse
such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrowers within such
Borrower Group reimburse such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans that are Revolving Loans (in the case of any such Letter of Credit issued for the account of a U.S. Borrower), Canadian Base Rate Loans that are
Revolving Loans (in the case of any such Letter of Credit denominated in Dollars that is issued for the account of a Canadian Borrower) or Canadian Prime Rate Loans that are Revolving Loans (in the case of any such Letter of Credit denominated in
Canadian Dollars that issued for the account of a Canadian Borrower); provided that, if the Borrowers within a Borrower Group fail to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then
Section 2.13(f) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Applicable Lender pursuant to
paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Applicable Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Applicable Lender to the extent of such payment. 
 (i) Replacement of an Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may be replaced at the written request of the Borrower Agent and without the consent of the Agent at any time by written agreement among the
Borrower Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank, and acknowledged by the Agent. The Agent shall notify the Applicable Lenders of any such replacement of an Applicable Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall
become effective, the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement,
(i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing
Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing
Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue
additional Letters of Credit. 
 (j) Cash Collateralization. If (A) any Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, (B) an Overadvance Condition shall at any time exist, (C) the Maturity Date shall occur or (D) if and to the extent required in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.28, on the Business Day that the
Borrower Agent receives notice from the Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, the Applicable Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of
cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, upon such demand, the Borrowers within each Borrower Group (or in the case of clause (B), the Borrowers within the Borrower Group with respect to which an Overadvance Condition exists) shall deposit, in an
account 

  
 - 69 -









 
with the Agent, in the name of the Agent and for the benefit of the Applicable Lenders (a “LC Collateral Account” and the LC Collateral Account funded by the U.S. Borrowers, the
“U.S. LC Collateral Account” and the LC Collateral Account funded by a Canadian Borrower , the “Canadian LC Collateral Account”), an amount in cash equal to 103% of the LC Exposure of such Borrower Group as of such
date; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any
Event of Default with respect to any Borrower described in clause (g) or (h) of Article VII. Such deposit made by U.S. Borrowers shall be held by the Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the
Obligations in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph (j). Such deposit made by a Canadian Borrower shall be held by the Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Canadian Obligations in accordance with the provisions
of this paragraph (j). The Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account and each Borrower within a Borrower Group hereby grants the Agent a security interest in the LC Collateral
Account funded by such Borrower Group. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Agent and at the risk and expense of the Borrowers within the
applicable Borrower Group that funded such LC Collateral Account, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Agent to
reimburse the Applicable Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower
Group for the LC Exposure to such Borrower Group at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Applicable Lenders with LC Exposure to such Borrower Group representing greater than 50% of the total
LC Exposure to such Borrower Group), be applied to satisfy other Obligations (or, in the case of the Canadian LC Collateral Account, the Canadian Obligations). If the Borrowers within a Borrower Group are required to provide an amount of cash
collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (together with all interest and other earnings with respect thereto, to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned promptly to the Borrowers within
such Borrower Group but in no event later than three (3) Business Days after such Event of Default has been cured or waived. If Borrowers within a Borrower Group fail to provide any cash collateral as required by this
Section 2.06(j), the Applicable Lenders may (and, upon direction of the Agent, shall) advance, as Revolving Loans, the amount of the cash collateral required (whether or not the Commitments have terminated, a Protective Advance or
Overadvance exists or the conditions in Article IV are satisfied). 
 SECTION 2.07 Funding of Borrowings.
(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 1:00 p.m., New York City time, or with respect to Canadian Revolving Loans, 1:00 p.m., Toronto,
Ontario time, to the account of the Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders in an amount equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage; provided that, Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in
Section 2.05. The Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to the Applicable Funding Account or as otherwise directed by the
Borrower Agent; provided that Floating Rate Loans made to finance the reimbursement of (i) an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall be remitted by the Agent to the Applicable Issuing Bank and (ii) a Protective
Advance shall be retained by the Agent to be applied as contemplated by Section 2.04 (and the Agent shall, upon the request of the Borrower Agent, deliver to the Borrower Agent a reasonably detailed accounting of such application). 

(b) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from an Applicable Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing by a Borrower within
a Borrower Group that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section
and

may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers within such Borrower Group a corresponding amount. In such event, if an Applicable Lender has not in fact made its share of
the applicable Borrowing available to the Agent, then the Applicable Lender and the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group severally agree to pay to the Agent forthwith on demand (without duplication) such corresponding amount with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers within such Borrower Group to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of, with respect to a
U.S. Revolving Loan, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, or, with respect to a Canadian Revolving Loan, the Canadian Overnight Rate, and, in each case, a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation
or (ii) in the case of the Borrowers within a Borrower Group, the interest rate applicable to Floating Rate Loans to such Borrowers in the applicable currency. If such Lender pays such amount to the Agent, then such amount shall constitute such
Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Agent or any Borrower within a Borrower Group or any Loan Party
may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. 
 SECTION 2.08 Type; Interest
Elections. (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of an Interest Period Loan, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request.
Thereafter, the Borrower Agent may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of an Interest Period Loan, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.08.
The Borrower Agent may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Applicable Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the
Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section 2.08 shall not apply to Swingline Loans or Protective Advances, which may not be converted or continued. 

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower Agent shall notify the Agent of such election by telephone by the time that
a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower Agent were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election
Request shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile to the Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Agent and signed by the Borrower Agent. 

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with
Section 2.02: 
 (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are
being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each
resulting Borrowing); 
 (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be
a Business Day; 
 (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be a Floating Rate Loan or an Interest Period Loan; and

 (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is an Interest Period Loan, the Type, and the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after
giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 

  
 - 71 -









 If any such Interest Election Request requests an Interest Period Loan but does not specify an Interest
Period, then the Borrower Agent shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 
 (d)
Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Agent shall advise each Applicable Lender of the details thereof and of such Applicable Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 

(e) If the Borrower Agent fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to an Interest Period Loan prior to the end of
the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to a Floating Rate Loan in the same currency. Notwithstanding any contrary
provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower Agent, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing with
respect to Revolving Loans may be converted to or continued as an Interest Period Loan and (ii) unless repaid, each Interest Period Loan shall be converted to a Floating Rate Loan in the same currency at the end of the then-current Interest
Period applicable thereto. 
 (f) The conversion of any Borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall not be, and
shall not be deemed to be, a discharge, rescission, extinguishment, novation or substitution of the Borrowing and following such conversion, the Borrowing shall continue to be the same obligation and not a new obligation. 

SECTION 2.09 Termination and Reduction of Revolving Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, all Revolving Commitments
shall terminate on the Maturity Date applicable to them and each Extension Series of Extended Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date applicable to such Series. 

(b) Upon delivering the notice required by Section 2.09(d), the Borrower Agent may at any time terminate the Revolving
Commitments upon (i) the payment in full of all outstanding Revolving Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, (ii) the cancellation and return of all outstanding Letters of Credit (or alternatively, with respect to each
such Letter of Credit, the furnishing to the Agent of a cash deposit (or at the discretion of the Agent a back up standby letter of credit reasonably satisfactory to the Agent) equal to 103% of the LC Exposure as of such date) and (iii) the
payment in full of all accrued and unpaid fees and all reimbursable expenses then due and payable under the Loan Documents. 

(c) Upon delivering the notice required by Section 2.09(d), the Borrower Agent may from time to time reduce the Revolving
Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) each reduction of the Revolving Commitments of a Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000, (ii) the Borrower Agent shall not
reduce the Revolving Commitments of any Class if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans of such Class in accordance with Section 2.10, the sum of (A) in the case of the U.S. Revolving Commitments,
the U.S. Revolving Exposures would exceed the lesser of the total U.S. Revolving Commitments and the U.S. Borrowing Base or (B) in the case of the Canadian Revolving Commitments, the Canadian Revolving Exposures would exceed the lesser of the
total Canadian Revolving Commitments and the Canadian Borrowing Base, and (iii) any such reduction shall apply proportionately and permanently to reduce the Revolving Commitments of each of the Applicable Lenders within such Class, except that,
notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with the establishment on any date of any Extended Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section 2.27 to the Borrowers within a Borrower Group, the Revolving Commitments of any one or more the
Applicable Lenders providing any such Extended 

  
 - 72 -









 
Revolving Commitments on such date shall be reduced in an amount equal to the amount of the Revolving Commitments so extended on such date (provided that (x) after giving
effect to any such reduction and to the repayment of any Revolving Loans made on such date, the U.S. Revolving Exposure of any such U.S. Revolving Lender does not exceed the lesser of the U.S. Revolving Commitment thereof and its Applicable
Percentage of the U.S. Borrowing Base (such U.S. Revolving Exposure, U.S. Revolving Commitment and Applicable Percentage being determined in each case, for the avoidance of doubt, exclusive of such Lender’s Extended Revolving Commitment and any
exposure in respect thereof), (y) after giving effect to any such reduction and to the repayment of any Revolving Loans made on such date, the Canadian Revolving Exposure of any such Canadian Revolving Lender does not exceed the lesser of the
Canadian Revolving Commitment thereof and its Applicable Percentage of the Canadian Borrowing Base (such Canadian Revolving Exposure, Canadian Revolving Commitment and Applicable Percentage being determined in each case, for the avoidance of doubt,
exclusive of such Lender’s Extended Revolving Commitment and any exposure in respect thereof), and (z) for the avoidance of doubt, any such repayment of Revolving Loans contemplated by the preceding clauses shall be made in compliance with
the requirements of Section 2.18 with respect to the ratable allocation of payments hereunder, with such allocation being determined after giving effect to any exchange pursuant to Section 2.27 of Revolving Commitments and
Revolving Loans into Extended Revolving Commitments and Extended Revolving Loans, respectively, and prior to any reduction being made to the Revolving Commitment of any other Lender). 

(d) The Borrower Agent shall notify the Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments to the Borrowers of any
Class under paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any
notice, the Agent shall advise the Applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall be permanent. 

SECTION 2.10 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Borrower within a Borrower Group hereby unconditionally promises
to pay (i) to the Agent for the account of each Applicable Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan made by such Applicable Lender on the Maturity Date, (ii) to the Agent the then unpaid amount of each Protective
Advance made to or for the account of the Borrowers within such Borrower Group on the earlier of the Maturity Date and demand by the Agent, (iii) to the Applicable Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan made by
such Applicable Swingline Lender on the Maturity Date and (iv) to the Agent for the account of each Applicable Extending Lender of each Extension Series made available to the Borrowers within such Borrower Group, the then unpaid principal
amount of each Extended Revolving Loan of such Extension Series on the maturity date for such Extension Series; provided that on each date that a Revolving Loan to a Borrower within a Borrower Group is made while any Swingline Loan or
Protective Advance made to the Borrowers within such Borrower Group is outstanding, the Borrowers within such Borrower Group shall repay all such Swingline Loans and Protective Advances with the proceeds of such Revolving Loan then outstanding.

 (b) At all times after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Liquidity Event and notification thereof by the Agent to
the Borrower Agent (subject to the provisions of Section 2.18(b) and to the terms of the Security Agreement), on each Business Day, at or before 1:00 p.m., New York City time, or with respect to Canadian Revolving Loans, 1:00 p.m.
Toronto, Ontario time, the Agent shall apply all immediately available funds credited to the BANA Account of a Borrower Group or such other account of such Borrower Group directed by the Agent pursuant to Section 2.21(b), first to
pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Agent, the Applicable Issuing Banks and the Applicable Lenders (other than in connection with Banking Services or Secured Swap Obligations), pro rata, second to pay interest due and
payable in respect of any Revolving Loans (including Swingline Loans) made to

the Borrowers within such Borrower Group and any Protective Advances made to the Borrowers within such Borrower Group that may be outstanding, pro rata, third to prepay the principal of
any Protective Advances made to the Borrowers within such Borrower Group that may be outstanding, pro rata, and fourth to prepay the principal of the Revolving Loans (including Swingline Loans) made to the Borrowers within such Borrower Group
and to cash collateralize outstanding LC Exposure of the Applicable Issuing Bank and Applicable Lenders with respect to such Borrower Group, pro rata. It being understood that in no event shall any of the Canadian Loan Parties make any payment
hereunder or under any other Loan Document on account of any U.S. Obligations. 
 (c) Each Applicable Lender shall maintain in
accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers within a Borrower Group to such Applicable Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender to any Borrower within such Borrower Group,
including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 
 (d) The Agent
shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder to a Borrower within a Borrower Group, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period (if any) applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any
principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers within such Borrower Group to each Applicable Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder for the account of the
Applicable Lenders and each Applicable Lender’s share thereof. 
 (e) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant
to paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Applicable Lender or the Agent to maintain such accounts
or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers within a Borrower Group to repay the Loans made to the Borrowers within such Borrower Group in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(f) Any Applicable Lender may request that Revolving Loans made by it to the Borrowers within a Borrower Group be evidenced by a
promissory note. In such event, the Borrowers within such Borrower Group shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Applicable Lender a promissory note payable to such Applicable Lender and its registered assigns and in substantially the form of Exhibit G-1 hereto, in the case of any promissory note issued to a Canadian Lender, and Exhibit G-2, in the case of any promissory note issued to a U.S.
Lender. 
 SECTION 2.11 Prepayment of Loans. (a) Upon prior notice in accordance with paragraph (d) of this
Section 2.11, the Borrowers within a Borrower Group shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Revolving Borrowing owing by such Borrowers in whole or in part without premium or penalty (but subject to
Section 2.16). 
 (b) Except for U.S. Protective Advances and U.S. Overadvance Loans permitted under
Section 2.04, in the event and on each Business Day on which the total U.S. Revolving Exposure exceeds the lesser of (i) the aggregate U.S. Revolving Commitments and (ii) the U.S. Borrowing Base, the U.S. Borrowers shall
promptly prepay first, any outstanding U.S. Swingline Loans in an amount equal to such excess U.S. Swingline Loans, second, if any excess remains after prepaying all U.S. Swingline Loans, any outstanding U.S. Revolving Loans in an
amount equal to any remaining excess and third, if any excess remains after prepaying all U.S. Swingline Loans and all U.S. Revolving Loans, depositing an amount in cash in an amount equal to any remaining excess in the U.S. LC Collateral
Account. Except for Canadian Protective Advances and Canadian Overadvance Loans permitted under Section 2.04, in the event and on each Business Day on which the total Canadian Revolving Exposure exceeds the lesser of


  
 - 74 -









 
(i) the aggregate Canadian Revolving Commitments and (ii) the Canadian Borrowing Base, the Canadian Borrowers shall promptly prepay first, any outstanding Canadian Swingline
Loans in an amount equal to such excess Canadian Swingline Loans, second, if any excess remains after prepaying all Canadian Swingline Loans, any outstanding Canadian Revolving Loans in an amount equal to any remaining excess and
third, if any excess remains after prepaying all Canadian Swingline Loans and all Canadian Revolving Loans, depositing an amount in cash in an amount equal to any remaining excess in the Canadian LC Collateral Account. 

(c) On each occasion that a Non-Ordinary Course Asset Disposition or Recovery Event occurs with
respect to any Borrower Group when (i) with respect to U.S. Borrowers, U.S. Excess Availability is less than 12.5% of the lesser of (A) the U.S. Revolving Commitments and (B) the U.S. Borrowing Base, or (ii) with respect to the
Canadian Borrowers, Canadian Excess Availability is less than 12.5% of the lesser of (A) the Canadian Revolving Commitments and (B) the Canadian Borrowing Base, then, in either case, , the Borrowers within such Borrower Group shall
promptly prepay after receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds therefrom, first, any outstanding Swingline Loans owing by such Borrowers, in an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds, second, if any Net Cash Proceeds remain after prepaying all
Swingline Loans owing by such Borrowers, any outstanding Revolving Loans owing by such Borrowers in an amount equal to any remaining Net Cash Proceeds, and third, if any Net Cash Proceeds remain after prepaying all Swingline Loans and all
Revolving Loans owing by such Borrowers, depositing an amount in cash equal to any remaining Net Cash Proceeds in the LC Collateral Account of such Borrowers. 
 (d) The Borrower Agent shall notify the Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Applicable Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) of any prepayment hereunder
(i) in the case of prepayment of an Interest Period Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, or with respect to Canadian BA Rate Loans, 12:00 noon, Toronto, Ontario time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment,

prepayment date, the Borrower Group obligated thereon and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Agent shall advise the Applicable Lenders
of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing of the
Borrowers within a Borrower Group shall be applied ratably to the Loans of such Borrower Group included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13. 

SECTION 2.12 Fees. (a) The Borrowers within each Borrower Group agree to pay to the Agent for the account of each Applicable
Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the Available Revolving Commitment of such Applicable Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on
which the Applicable Lenders’ Revolving Commitments to such Borrowers terminate. Accrued commitment fees owing by (i) a Canadian Borrower shall be payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each January, April, July and October and on

 - 75 -









 (b) The Borrowers within each Borrower Group agree to pay (i) to the Agent for the
account of each Applicable Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit issued for the account of a Borrower within such Borrower Group (including, in the case of U.S. Revolving Lenders any Letter of Credit with
respect to which the Company is a co-applicant with a Subsidiary of the Company), which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Interest Period Loans on the
daily amount of such Applicable Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements made for the account of any such Borrower), during the period from and including the Effective Date to but
excluding the later of the date on which such Applicable Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Applicable Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Applicable Issuing Bank, for its own account, a
fronting fee, in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by such Applicable Issuing Bank for the period from the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit through the expiration date of such Letter of Credit (or if terminated on an earlier date to
the termination date of such Letter of Credit), computed at a rate equal to 0.125% per annum or such other percentage per annum to be agreed upon between the Borrower Agent and such Applicable Issuing Bank of the daily stated amount of such
Letter of Credit, as well as such Applicable Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder; provided that no fronting fee

payable by (i) the Canadian Borrowers on the first Business Day of each January, April, July and October, and (ii) U.S. Borrowers on the first calendar day of each January, April, July and October, in each case, commencing on the first
such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Commitments of the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group terminate and any such fees accruing after
the date on which such Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to any Applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be
computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed. 
 (c) The Borrowers
within each Borrower Group agree to pay to the Agent, for its own account, such agency fees as may be separately agreed upon by the Company and the Agent with respect to such Borrower Group, including pursuant to the Fee Letter, payable in the
amounts and at the times so agreed. 
 (d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available
funds, to the Agent (or to the Applicable Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

U.S. Protective Advance) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (b) The
Revolving Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate. 

  
 - 76 -









 (c) The Revolving Loans that are Canadian Base Rate Loans (including each Canadian Swingline
Loan denominated in Dollars and each Canadian Protective Advance denominated in Dollars) shall bear interest at the Canadian Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (d) The Revolving Loans that are Canadian Prime Rate Loans (including each Canadian Swingline Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars and each Canadian Protective Advance denominated in Canadian Dollars)
shall bear interest at the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (e) The Revolving Loans that are
Canadian BA Rate Loans shall bear interest at the Canadian BA Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrowers within a Borrower Group hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated
maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise
applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount (A) owed by the U.S. Borrowers, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph
(a) of this Section, (B) owed by the Canadian Borrowers in Dollars, 2% plus the rate applicable to Canadian Base Rate Loans, or (C) owed by the Canadian Borrowers in Canadian Dollars, 2% plus the rate
applicable to Canadian Prime Rate Loans. 
 (g) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest
Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the applicable Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment
or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of a Floating Rate Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and
(iii) in the event of any conversion of any Interest Period Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

(h) All interest and fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference
to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the U.S. Prime Rate, the Canadian Base Rate, the Canadian Prime Rate, and the Canadian BA Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days, and in each case
shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), (i) whenever any interest under this Agreement is calculated using a rate based
on a year of 360 days or any other period of time that is less than a calendar year, the rate determined pursuant to such calculation, when expressed as an annual rate, is equivalent to (x) the applicable rate based on the number of days in the
calendar year, (y) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for which such interest is payable (or compounded) ends, and (z) divided by 360, or such other period of time that is less than the
calendar year, (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. 
 (i) The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBOR Rate, LIBOR Rate, Canadian BA Rate, Canadian
Base Rate and Canadian Prime Rate shall be determined by the Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

  
 - 77 -









 SECTION 2.14 Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest
Period for an Interest Period Loan: 
 (i) the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, the LIBOR Rate, or the Canadian BA Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or 

(ii) the Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, the LIBOR Rate, or the Canadian BA Rate,
as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; then the Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to
the Borrower Agent and the Applicable Lenders by telephone or facsimile as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Agent notifies the Borrower Agent and the Applicable Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer
exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a LIBOR Rate Loan or a Canadian BA Rate Loan, as applicable, shall be ineffective and such Borrowing shall be
converted to a Floating Rate Loan in the same currency on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereof, and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests an Interest Period Loan, such Borrowing shall be made as a Floating Rate Loan in the
same currency. 
 SECTION 2.15 Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall impose, modify or deem applicable any
reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Applicable Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBOR Rate) or Applicable Issuing
Bank; or impose on any Applicable Lender or Applicable Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Interest Period Loans made by such Applicable Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Applicable Lender of making or maintaining any Interest Period Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Applicable
Lender or Applicable Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Applicable Lender or Applicable Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal,
interest or otherwise), then, following delivery of the certificate contemplated by paragraph (c) of this Section, the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group will pay to such Applicable Lender or Applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable,
such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Applicable Lender or Applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered (except for any Taxes, which shall be dealt with exclusively pursuant to
Section 2.17). 
 (b) If any Applicable Lender or Applicable Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding
capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Applicable Lender’s or Applicable Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Applicable Lender’s or Applicable Issuing Bank’s holding
company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Applicable Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Applicable Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such
Applicable Lender or such Applicable Issuing Bank or such Applicable Lender’s or such Applicable Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law other than due to Taxes, which shall be dealt with exclusively
pursuant to Section 2.17 (taking into consideration such Applicable Lender’s or such Applicable Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Applicable Lender’s or such Applicable Issuing Bank’s holding company
with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time following delivery of the certificate contemplated by paragraph (c) of this Section the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group will pay to such Applicable Lender or such
Applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Applicable Lender or such Applicable Issuing Bank or such Applicable Lender’s or such Applicable Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such
reduction suffered. 

  
 - 78 -









 (c) A certificate of an Applicable Lender or an Applicable Issuing Bank setting forth the
amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Applicable Lender or Applicable Issuing Bank or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in
which such amount or amounts was determined shall be delivered to the Borrower Agent and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group shall pay such Applicable Lender or Applicable Issuing Bank, as
applicable, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Failure or delay on the
part of any Applicable Lender or Applicable Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Applicable Lender’s or Applicable Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation;
provided that the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group shall not be required to compensate an Applicable Lender or an Applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than
180 days prior to the date that such Applicable Lender or Applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, notifies the Borrower Agent of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Applicable Lender’s or Applicable
Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period
referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
 SECTION 2.16 Break Funding
Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Interest Period Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any
Interest Period Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Interest Period Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless
of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.09(d) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any Interest Period Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result
of a request by the Borrower Agent pursuant to Section 2.19 or 9.02(e), then, in any such event, the Borrowers within the affected Borrower Group shall compensate each Applicable Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable
to such event. In the case of an Interest Period Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Applicable Lender shall be deemed to be the amount determined by such Applicable Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would
have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate or Canadian BA Rate, as applicable, that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of
the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such
principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Applicable Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A
certificate of any Applicable Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Applicable Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section and the basis therefor and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount or
amounts was determined shall be delivered to the Borrower Agent and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers within the effected Borrower Group shall pay such Applicable Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within
10 days after receipt thereof.

 SECTION 2.17 Taxes. 

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or any other Loan Document shall be made free and
clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if a Loan Party shall be required to deduct, withhold, or remit any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable
shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions or remittances applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Agent, Applicable Lender or any Applicable Issuing Bank (as applicable)
receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or remittances, been made, (ii) such Loan Party shall make such deductions and remittances, and (iii) such Loan Party shall timely pay and remit the full
amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If at any time a Loan Party is required by applicable law to make any deduction, remittance or withholding from any sum payable hereunder, such Loan Party
shall promptly notify the Applicable Lender, Agent or Applicable Issuing Bank upon becoming aware of the same. In addition, each Applicable Lender, Agent or Applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly notify a Loan Party upon becoming aware of any
circumstances as a result of which a Loan Party is or would be required to make any deduction, remittance, or withholding from any sum payable hereunder. 
 (b) In addition, the Loan Parties within each Borrower Group shall pay any Other Taxes with respect to the Loans and Commitments to the Borrowers within such Borrower Group and this Agreement as it
relates to such Borrower Group to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) Each Loan Party
within a Borrower Group shall indemnify the Agent, each Applicable Lender and each Applicable Issuing Bank, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Agent, such Applicable
Lender or such Applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of such Loan Party hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts
payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower Agent by an Applicable Lender or an Applicable Issuing Bank, or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of an Applicable Lender, or an
Applicable Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the
return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. 
 (e) Any Foreign Lender
that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which a Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver
to the Borrower Agent (with a copy to the Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower Agent as will permit such
payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate (including any documentation necessary to prevent withholding under Sections 1471 or 1472 of the Code). In particular, on or prior to the date which is ten (10) Business Days
after the Effective Date, each Foreign Lender in respect of a U.S. Borrower shall deliver to the Borrower Agent (with a copy to the Agent) two duly signed, properly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”)
Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to such Foreign Lender and entitling it to an exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding tax on payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by any


  
 - 80 -









 
Borrower or any other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document), IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by
any Borrower or any other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document), IRS Form W-8IMY (and any applicable underlying IRS Forms) or such other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower Agent and the Agent that such
Foreign Lender is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding tax, including any exemption pursuant to Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, and in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming such an exemption under
Section 881(c) of the Code, a certificate that establishes in writing to the Borrower Agent and the Agent that such Foreign Lender is not (i) a “bank” as defined in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (ii) a 10-percent shareholder within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or (iii) a controlled foreign corporation related to a Borrower with the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code.
Thereafter and from time to time, each such Foreign Lender shall (A) promptly so long as it is eligible to do so submit to the Borrower Agent (with a copy to the Agent) such additional duly completed and signed copies of one or more of such
forms or certificates (or such successor forms or certificates as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States laws and regulations to avoid, or such
evidence as is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower Agent and the Agent of any available exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by any Borrower or other Loan
Party pursuant to this Agreement, or any other Loan Document, in each case, (1) on or before the date that any such form, certificate or other evidence expires or becomes obsolete, (2) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change
in the most recent form, certificate or evidence previously delivered by it to the Borrower Agent and (3) from time to time thereafter if reasonably requested by the Borrower Agent or the Agent, and (B) promptly notify the Borrower Agent
and the Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction. For the avoidance of doubt, if, as a result of a Change in Law, a Foreign Lender is no longer legally able to provide documentation
with respect to an exemption from or a reduction of withholding tax, such Foreign Lender will be treated as complying with this Section 2.17(e) and such inability will not affect the Foreign Lender’s rights under
Section 2.17(a). If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA, such Lender shall deliver to the Withholding Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such
time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the
Withholding Agent as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA, applicable reporting requirements of FATCA
(including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable) or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments
made to FATCA after the Effective Date. 
 (f) Each Lender, Agent or Issuing Bank that is a “United States person”
within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, agrees to complete and deliver to the Borrower Agent a statement signed by an authorized signatory of the Lender to the effect that it is a United States person together with a duly
completed and executed copy of IRS Form W-9 or successor form and any documentation necessary to prevent withholding under Sections 1471 or 1472 of the Code, to the extent applicable. 

(g) If the Agent, a Lender, or an Issuing Bank determines, in good faith in its reasonable sole discretion, that it has received a refund
of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which such Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund to such Loan
Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket 

  
 - 81 -









 
expenses of the Agent or such Lender (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) as is determined by the Agent or such Lender in good faith in its sole discretion, and without
interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that such Loan Party, upon the request of the Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay as soon as reasonably practicable the amount
paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Agent or such Lender in the event the Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental
Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require the Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to such Loan Party or any other Person. 

(h) If the Borrower Agent determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes for
which additional amounts have been paid under this Section 2.17, the Applicable Lender, Agent or Applicable Issuing Bank shall cooperate with the Borrower Agent in challenging such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, at the expense of the
Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group, if so requested by the Borrower Agent in writing. 
 SECTION 2.18 Payments
Generally; Allocation of Proceeds; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) Unless otherwise specified, each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees
or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, or with respect to Canadian LC Disbursements, 2:00 p.m.,
Toronto, Ontario time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Agent, be deemed to
have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Agent to the applicable account designated to the Borrower Agent by the Agent, except payments to be made
directly to the Applicable Issuing Bank or the Applicable Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons
entitled thereto. The Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, if any payment
hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such
extension. Any payment required to be made by the Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if the Agent shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the
regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by the Agent to make such payment. At all times that the circumstances specified in Section 2.21(d) are in effect, solely for purposes of determining the
amount of Revolving Loans available for borrowing purposes, checks and cash or other immediately available funds from collections of items of payment and proceeds of any Collateral shall be applied in whole or in part against the applicable
Obligations, on the day of receipt, subject to actual collection. 
 (b) (i) Subject in all respects to the provisions of the
Intercreditor Agreement, all proceeds of U.S. Collateral received by the Agent after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall upon election by the Agent or at the direction of the Required Lenders be applied, first, to,
ratably, pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements then due to the Agent or any U.S. Issuing Bank from the U.S. Borrowers (other than in connection with Banking Services or Secured Swap Obligations), second, ratably, to pay any
fees or expense reimbursements then due to the U.S. Revolving Lenders (other than in connection with Banking Services or Secured Swap Obligations), third, to pay interest due and payable in respect of any U.S. Revolving Loans from the U.S.
Borrowers (including any U.S. Swingline Loans) and any U.S. Protective Advances, ratably, fourth, to pay the principal of the U.S. Protective Advances, fifth, to prepay principal on the U.S. Revolving Loans (other than the U.S.


  
 - 82 -









 
Protective Advances) and unreimbursed U.S. LC Disbursements, ratably, sixth, to pay an amount to the Agent equal to 103% of the U.S. LC Exposure on such date, to be held in the U.S.
LC Collateral Account as cash collateral for such Obligations, seventh, to pay any amounts owing with respect to Banking Services and Secured Swap Obligations that are U.S. Obligations, ratably, eighth, to the payment of any other U.S.
Obligation due to the Agent or any U.S. Revolving Lender, ninth, to the Canadian Obligations in the order provided in Section 2.18(b)(ii), tenth, as provided for under the Intercreditor Agreement and eleventh, to the
U.S. Borrowers or as the Borrower Agent shall direct. 
 (ii) All proceeds of Canadian Collateral received by the Agent after an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall upon election by the Agent or at the direction of the Required Lenders be applied, first, to, ratably, pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements then due to the Agent or any
Canadian Issuing Bank from the Canadian Loan Parties (other than in connection with Banking Services or Secured Swap Obligations), second, ratably, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Canadian Revolving Lenders from the
Canadian Loan Parties (other than in connection with Banking Services or Secured Swap Obligations), third, to pay interest due and payable in respect of any Canadian Revolving Loans (including any Canadian Swingline Loans) and any Canadian
Protective Advances, ratably, fourth, to pay the principal of the Canadian Protective Advances, fifth, to prepay principal on the Canadian Revolving Loans (other than the Canadian Protective Advances) and unreimbursed Canadian LC
Disbursements, ratably, sixth, to pay an amount to the Agent equal to 103% of the Canadian LC Exposure on such date, to be held in the Canadian LC Collateral Account as cash collateral for such Obligations, seventh, to pay any amounts
owing with respect to Banking Services and Secured Swap Obligations that are Canadian Obligations, ratably, eighth, to the payment of any other Canadian Obligation due to the Agent or any Canadian Revolving Lender from any Canadian Loan
Party, and ninth, to the Canadian Borrowers or as the Borrower Agent shall direct. 
 (c) If any Applicable Lender shall,
by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans or participations in LC Disbursements, Swingline Loans
or Protective Advances with respect to the applicable Borrower Group resulting in such Applicable Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, Swingline Loans
or Protective Advances owing by the Borrowers within such Borrower Group and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Applicable Lender to the Borrowers within such Borrower Group, then the Applicable Lender receiving such
greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, Swingline Loans and Protective Advances owing by the Borrowers within such Borrower Group that are held by
the other Applicable Lenders at such time outstanding to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Applicable Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on
their respective Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, Swingline Loans and Protective Advances owing by the Borrowers within such Borrower Group; provided that (A) if any such participations are purchased
and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (B) the provisions of this paragraph shall not
be construed to apply to any payment made by any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by an Applicable Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any
of its Revolving Loans or participations in LC Disbursements, Swingline Loans or Protective Advances to any assignee or participant. Each Borrower within a Borrower Group consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do
so under applicable law, that any Applicable Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such
participation as fully as if such Applicable Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. 

  
 - 83 -









 (d) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower Agent prior to the date on
which any payment is due to the Agent for the account of the Applicable Lenders or the Applicable Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group will not make such payment, the Agent may assume that the Borrowers
within such Borrower Group have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Applicable Lenders or the Applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, the amount due. In such event, if
the Borrowers within such Borrower Group have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Applicable Lenders or the Applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, severally agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to
such Applicable Lender or Applicable Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at the greater of, with respect to a U.S. Revolving
Loan, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, or, with respect to a Canadian Revolving Loan, the Canadian Overnight Rate, and, in each case, a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 

(e) If any Applicable Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Sections 2.04(b),
2.05(b), 2.05(c), 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b), 2.18(c) or 9.03(c), then the Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Agent
for the account of such Applicable Lender to satisfy such Applicable Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 
 (f) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Agent may (but shall not be required to), in its discretion, retain any payments or other funds received by the Agent that are otherwise
to be provided to an Applicable Defaulting Lender hereunder, and may apply such funds to such Applicable Defaulting Lender’s defaulted obligations or readvance such funds to the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group in connection with
the funding of any Revolving Loan to such Borrowers or issuance of any Letters of Credit for the account of such Borrowers hereunder, including cash collateralization thereof, in accordance with this Agreement. 

SECTION 2.19 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Applicable Lender requests compensation under
Section 2.15, or if any Borrower within a Borrower Group is required to pay any additional amount to any Applicable Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Applicable Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then
such Applicable Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans to the Borrowers within such Borrower Group hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its
offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Applicable Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as applicable, in the
future and (ii) would not subject such Applicable Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Applicable Lender in any material respect. The Borrowers within the applicable Borrower
Group hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Applicable Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 
 (b) If any Applicable Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if any Borrower within a Borrower Group is required to pay any additional amount to any Applicable Lender or any
Governmental Authority for the account of any Applicable Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any Applicable Lender is an Applicable Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower Agent may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such
Applicable Lender and the Agent, replace such Applicable Lender by requiring such Applicable Lender to assign and delegate (and such Applicable Lender shall be obligated to assign and delegate), without recourse (in accordance with and subject to
the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall 

  
 - 84 -









 
assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if such Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower Agent shall have received the prior
written consent of the Agent and each Applicable Issuing Bank, which consent in each case shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Applicable Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans
and participations in LC Disbursements, Swingline Loans and Protective Advances owing by the Borrowers within such Borrower Group, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder with respect to such Borrower
Group, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers within such Borrower Group (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a
claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. The Agent is irrevocably appointed as attorney-in-fact to execute any Assignment and Assumption(s) if the Applicable Defaulting Lender fails to execute the same. A Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) shall not
be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower Agent to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Nothing in this
Section 2.19 shall be deemed to prejudice any rights that any Borrower within a Borrower Group or any Applicable Issuing Bank may have against any Applicable Lender that is an Applicable Defaulting Lender. 

SECTION 2.20 Illegality. If any Applicable Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law has made it unlawful, or that any
Governmental Authority has asserted after the Effective Date that it is unlawful, for such Applicable Lender or its applicable lending office to make or maintain any Interest Period Loans, then, on notice thereof by such Applicable Lender to the
Borrower Agent through the Agent, any obligations of such Applicable Lender to make or continue Interest Period Loans or to convert Floating Rate Loans to Interest Period Loans shall be suspended until such Applicable Lender notifies the Agent and
the Borrower Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower Agent shall upon demand from such Applicable Lender (with a copy to the Agent), either convert all Interest Period
Loans of such Lender to Floating Rate Loans in the same currency, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Applicable Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Interest Period Loans to such day, or immediately, if such
Applicable Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. Each Applicable
Lender agrees to designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the determination of such Applicable Lender, otherwise be disadvantageous to it. 

SECTION 2.21 Cash Receipts. (a) Each U.S. Loan Party has entered into, and each Canadian Loan Party shall, within ninety
(90) days after the Effective Date (or such later date approved by the Agent in its reasonable discretion), enter into, a control agreement (each, a “Blocked Account Agreement”), in form reasonably satisfactory to the Agent,
with the Agent and any bank with which such Loan Party maintains a DDA (other than an Excluded Account) (collectively, the “Blocked Accounts”). Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that each Blocked Account shall operate solely
as a collections account and that such Loan Party shall maintain a separate disbursement account for the disbursement of monies to third parties in the ordinary course of their business and other similar disbursement activities, including the
presentment of checks and any ACH transfers. 
 (b) Each U.S. Loan Party agrees that it will cause all proceeds of the ABL First
Lien Collateral (other than the Uncontrolled Cash) and for any Canadian Loan Parties, the equivalent portion of the Canadian Collateral to “ABL First Lien Collateral” (other than Uncontrolled Cash) to be deposited into a Blocked Account,
which deposits may be made through a remote scanning process for purposes of depositing payment items into the Blocked Accounts from time to time. Each Loan Party agrees that it will promptly cause all such payment items to be scanned and deposited
into Blocked Accounts and will provide copies at the Agent’s reasonable written request of any and all agreements entered into by a Loan Party with any third party that provides the scanning equipment or the services to reconcile the invoices
with any scanned payment items. 

  
 - 85 -









 (c) Each Blocked Account Agreement shall require, after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default or other Liquidity Event (and delivery of notice thereof from the Agent to the Borrower Agent and the other parties to such instrument or agreement) the ACH or wire transfer no less frequently than once per
Business Day (unless the Termination Date shall have occurred), of all available cash balances and cash receipts, including the then contents or then entire ledger balance of each Blocked Account (net of such minimum balance, not to exceed the
Dollar Equivalent Amount of $250,000 as may be required to be maintained in the subject Blocked Account by the bank at which such Blocked Account is maintained and other than any Uncontrolled Cash), to an account maintained for each Borrower Group
by the Agent at BANA (each a “BANA Account”) or such other account as directed by the Agent. Subject to the terms of the applicable Security Agreement, all amounts received in a BANA Account or such other account shall be applied
(and allocated) by the Agent in accordance with Section 2.10(b); provided that if the circumstances described in Section 2.18(b) are applicable, all such amounts shall be applied in accordance with such
Section 2.18(b). 
 (d) If, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or
other Liquidity Event, any cash or cash equivalents owned by any Loan Party (other than (i) an amount not to exceed $10,000,000 in the aggregate that is on deposit in segregated DDAs which the Borrower Agent designates in writing to the Agent
as being the “uncontrolled cash account” (the “Designated Disbursement Account”), which funds shall not be funded from, or when withdrawn from the Designated Disbursement Account, shall not be replenished by, funds
constituting proceeds of the ABL First Lien Collateral or, for any Canadian Loan Parties, the equivalent portion of the Canadian Collateral to “ABL First Lien Collateral” so long as such Event of Default or other Liquidity Event continues,
(ii) de minimus cash or cash equivalents from time to time inadvertently misapplied by any Loan Party and (iii) payroll, trust and tax withholding accounts (other than Excluded Accounts) funded in the ordinary course of business and
required by applicable law) are deposited to any account, or held or invested in any manner, otherwise than in a Blocked Account subject to a Blocked Account Agreement, the Agent shall be entitled to require the applicable Loan Party within a
Borrower Group to close such account and have all funds therein transferred to a Blocked Account of such Borrower Group, and to cause all future deposits to be made to a Blocked Account of such Borrower Group. 

(e) The Loan Parties may close DDAs or Blocked Accounts and/or open new DDAs or Blocked Accounts, subject to the contemporaneous execution
and delivery to the Agent of a Blocked Account Agreement consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.21 and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. 
 (f) Subject to clause (h) below, the BANA Account for each Borrower Group shall at all times be under the sole dominion and control of the Agent. Each Loan Party within a Borrower Group hereby
acknowledges and agrees that, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Security Agreement, (i) such Loan Party has no right of withdrawal from the BANA Account for such Borrower Group, (ii) the funds on deposit in such BANA
Account shall at all times continue to be collateral security for all of the applicable Obligations, and (iii) the funds on deposit in such BANA Account shall be applied as provided in this Agreement and, with respect to the U.S. Collateral,
the Intercreditor Agreement. In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.21, any Loan Party within a Borrower Group receives or otherwise has dominion and control of any proceeds or collections required to be
transferred to the BANA Account for such Borrower Group pursuant to Section 2.21(c), such proceeds and collections shall be held in trust by such Loan Party for the Agent, shall not be commingled with any of such Loan Party’s other
funds or deposited in any account of such Loan Party and shall promptly be deposited into such BANA Account or dealt with in such other fashion as such Loan Party may be instructed by the Agent. 

  
 - 86 -









 (g) So long as (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (ii) no
other Liquidity Event as to which the Agent has notified the Borrower Agent has occurred and is continuing, the Loan Parties within each Borrower Group may direct, and shall have sole control over, the manner of disposition of funds in the Blocked
Accounts of such Borrower Group. 
 (h) Any amounts held or received in a BANA Account for any Borrower Group (including all
interest and other earnings with respect thereto, if any) at any time (x) after the Termination Date or (y) all Events of Default and other Liquidity Events have been cured shall (subject in the case of clause (x), to the provisions
of the Intercreditor Agreement with respect to the U.S. Collateral) be remitted to the operating account of a Borrower within such Borrower Group as specified by the Borrower Agent. 

SECTION 2.22 Reserves; Change in Reserves; Decisions by Agent. (a) The Agent may at any time and from time to time in the
exercise of its Permitted Discretion establish and increase or decrease Reserves; provided that, as a condition to the establishment of any new category of Reserves, or any increase in Reserves resulting from a change in the manner of
determination thereof, any Required Reserve Notice shall have been given to the Borrower Agent. The amount of any Reserve established by the Agent shall have a reasonable relationship to the event, condition or other matter that is the basis for the
Reserve. Upon delivery of such notice, the Agent shall be available to discuss the proposed Reserve or increase, and the Borrowers may take such action as may be required so that the event, condition or matter that is the basis for such Reserve or
increase no longer exists, in a manner and to the extent reasonably satisfactory to the Agent in the exercise of its Permitted Discretion. In no event shall such notice and opportunity limit the right of the Agent to establish or change such
Reserve, unless the Agent shall have determined in its Permitted Discretion that the event, condition or other matter that is the basis for such new Reserve or such change no longer exists or has otherwise been adequately addressed by the Borrowers.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) Reserves shall not duplicate eligibility criteria contained in the definition of “Eligible Receivable”, “Eligible Tire Inventory” or “Eligible Non-Tire Inventory” and vice versa, or reserves or criteria deducted in computing the cost or market value or Value of any Eligible Receivable, any Eligible Tire Inventory or any Eligible Non-Tire Inventory or the Net Orderly Liquidation Value of any Eligible Tire Inventory or any Eligible Non-Tire Inventory and vice versa, and (ii) Reserves deducted in
computing the Canadian Borrowing Base shall not be duplicative of Reserves deducted in computing the U.S. Borrowing Base and vice versa. 
 SECTION 2.23 Revolving Commitment Increases. (a) So long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, or would result therefrom, the Borrower Agent shall have the right at any time, and from
time to time, to request one or more increases in the amount of the total Commitments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $200,000,000 (up to $50,000,000 of which may be allocated to Canadian Revolving Commitment Increases) or, if less, the amount
by which $1,110,000,000 exceeds the total Commitments then in effect (such amount, the “Aggregate Incremental Capacity”). Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the aggregate amount of Commitments and,
without duplication, Loans outstanding hereunder at any time, including the aggregate amount of Revolving Commitment Increases, shall not exceed $1,110,000,000 at any time, (ii) the aggregate amount of U.S. Commitments and, without duplication,
U.S. Revolving Loans outstanding hereunder at any time, including the aggregate amount of U.S. Revolving Commitment Increases, shall not exceed $1,050,000,000 at any time, and (iii) the aggregate amount of Canadian Commitments and, without
duplication, the Dollar Equivalent Amount of Canadian Revolving Loans outstanding hereunder at any time, including the aggregate amount of Canadian Revolving Commitment Increases, shall not exceed $110,000,000 at any time.

 (b) Revolving Commitment Increases. (i) The Agent or any other Person may
arrange for existing Applicable Lenders to the Borrowers within any Borrower Group to increase their Revolving Commitments to the Borrowers within such Borrower Group or for other Persons to become Applicable Lenders to the Borrowers within such
Borrower Group hereunder and to issue revolving commitments in an amount equal to the amount of the increase in the aggregate total of Revolving Commitments requested by the Borrower Agent for the Borrowers within such Borrower Group (each such
increase by either means, a “Revolving Commitment Increase”, each such Revolving Commitment Increase issued to U.S. Borrowers, a “U.S. Revolving Commitment Increase” and each such Revolving Commitment Increase
issued to the Canadian Borrowers, a “Canadian Revolving Commitment Increase”, and each such Person issuing, or Applicable Lender increasing, its Revolving Commitment, an “Additional Revolving Commitment Lender”, and
each such Additional Revolving Commitment Lender to U.S. Borrowers, an “Additional U.S. Revolving Commitment Lender” and each such Additional Revolving Commitment Lender to the Canadian Borrowers, an “Additional Canadian
Revolving Lender”); provided, however, that (A) no Revolving Lender shall be obligated to provide a Revolving Commitment Increase as a result of any such request by the Borrower Agent, provided that the Borrower Agent
shall not be obligated to provide any existing Revolving Lender with the opportunity to provide a Revolving Commitment Increase and (B) any Additional Revolving Commitment Lender that is not an existing Revolving Lender shall be an Eligible
Assignee and shall be subject to the approval of the Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Borrower Agent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). Each Revolving Commitment Increase shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of at least
$20,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Each Revolving Commitment Increase shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.23(b) and any Revolving Loans pursuant to such Revolving
Commitment Increase or new Revolving Commitments shall be on the same terms and conditions as all other Revolving Loans, except with respect to any fees payable in connection therewith as may be separately agreed among the Borrower Agent and the
Additional Revolving Commitment Lenders. 
 (ii) No Revolving Commitment Increase shall become effective unless
and until each of the following conditions have been satisfied: 
 (A) the Borrower Agent, the Agent, and any
Additional Revolving Commitment Lender shall have executed and delivered a customary joinder to the Loan Documents; 
 (B) the Borrowers within the Borrower Group that are receiving such Revolving Commitment Increase shall have paid such fees and other compensation as the Borrower Agent and each such Additional Revolving
Commitment Lender may agree; 
 (C) the Borrower Agent shall have delivered to the Agent and the Revolving
Lenders an opinion or opinions, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, from counsel to the Borrowers reasonably satisfactory to the Agent (it being agreed that the counsel that delivers the legal opinions on the Effective Date
shall be satisfactory to the Agent) and dated such date; 
 (D) to the extent requested by any Additional
Revolving Commitment Lender that has issued an Additional Revolving Commitment to the Borrowers within a Borrower Group, a promissory note will be issued, at the expense of the Borrowers within such Borrower Group, to such Additional Revolving
Commitment Lender, to be in conformity with the requirements of Section 2.10 (with appropriate modification) to the extent necessary to reflect the new Revolving Commitment of such Additional Revolving Commitment Lender; and 

  
 - 88 -









 (E) the Borrower Agent shall have delivered to the Agent (1) the
resolutions adopted by each Loan Party approving or consenting to such Revolving Commitment Increase and (2) a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Company to the effect that, after giving effect to the requested Revolving Commitment
Increase, (x) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (y) the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in this Agreement and in each of the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all
material respects (or, in the case of any representations and warranties qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in all respects) on and as of the date of such Revolving Credit Increase, as applicable, with the same effect as though
made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects (or, in the case of any
representations and warranties qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in all respects) as of such earlier date). 
 (iii) The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Revolving Commitment Increase (with each date of such effectiveness being referred to herein as a “Revolving
Commitment Increase Date”), and at such time (A) the aggregate total Revolving Commitments and the aggregate total Commitments under, and for all purposes of, this Agreement shall be increased by the aggregate amount of such Revolving
Commitment Increase, (B) in the case of any U.S. Revolving Commitment Increase, the aggregate total U.S. Revolving Commitments and the aggregate total U.S. Commitments under, and for all purposes of, this Agreement shall be increased by the
aggregate amount of such U.S. Revolving Commitment Increase, (C) in the case of any Canadian Revolving Commitment Increase, the aggregate total Canadian Revolving Commitments and the aggregate total Canadian Commitments under, and for all
purposes of, this Agreement shall be increased by the aggregate amount of such Canadian Revolving Commitment Increase, (D) the Commitment Schedule shall be deemed modified, without further action, to reflect the revised Revolving Commitments of
the Lenders, and (E) this Agreement shall be deemed amended, without further action, to the extent necessary to reflect such increased aggregate total Commitments. 

(iv) In connection with Revolving Commitment Increases to the Borrowers within a Borrower Group hereunder, the Applicable
Lenders and the Borrowers within such Borrower Group agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (A) the Borrowers within such Borrower Group shall, in coordination with the Agent, (1) repay outstanding
Revolving Loans of certain Applicable Lenders, and obtain Revolving Loans from certain other Applicable Lenders (including the Additional Revolving Commitment Lenders to such Borrower Group), or (2) take such other actions as reasonably may be
required by the Agent, in each case to the extent necessary so that all of the Applicable Lenders effectively participate in each of the outstanding Revolving Loans to such Borrower Group pro rata on the basis of their Applicable Percentages
(determined after giving effect to any increase in the aggregate total Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.23); and (B) the Borrowers within such Borrower Group shall pay to the Applicable Lenders any costs of the type
referred to in Section 2.16 in connection with any repayment and/or prepayment of Revolving Loans required pursuant to preceding clause (A). Without limiting the obligations of the Borrowers provided for in this
Section 2.23(b), the Agent and the Applicable Lenders agree that they will use their commercially reasonable efforts to attempt to minimize the costs of the type referred to in Section 2.16 which the Borrowers receiving a
Revolving Commitment Increase would otherwise occur in connection with the implementation of an increase in the aggregate total Revolving Commitments and the aggregate total Commitments hereunder.

 SECTION 2.24 Borrower Agent. Each Borrower hereby designates the Company as its
representative and agent (in such capacity, the “Borrower Agent”) for all purposes under the Loan Documents, including requests for Loans and Letters of Credit, designation of interest rates, delivery or receipt of communications,
preparation and delivery of Borrowing Base Certificates and financial reports, receipt and payment of Obligations, requests for waivers, amendments or other accommodations, actions under the Loan Documents (including in respect of compliance with
covenants), and all other dealings with the Agent, the Issuing Banks or any Lender. The Borrower Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The Agent, the Issuing Banks, and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in
relying upon, any notice or communication (including any notice of borrowing) delivered by Borrower Agent on behalf of any Borrower. The Agent, the Issuing Banks, and the Lenders may give any notice or communication with a Borrower hereunder to the
Borrower Agent on behalf of such Borrower. Each of the Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall have the right, in its discretion, to deal exclusively with the Borrower Agent for any or all purposes under the Loan Documents. Each Borrower
agrees that any notice, election, communication, representation, agreement or undertaking made on its behalf by the Borrower Agent shall be binding upon and enforceable against it. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no
Borrower (other than the Borrower Agent) shall be authorized to request any Borrowing or Letter of Credit hereunder without the prior written consent of the Company. 
 SECTION 2.25 Joint and Several Liability of the U.S. Borrowers. (a) Each U.S. Borrower agrees that it is absolutely and unconditionally jointly and severally liable, as co-borrower, for the prompt payment and performance of all U.S. Obligations and all agreements of each of the U.S. Borrowers under the Loan Documents. Each U.S. Borrower agrees that its co-borrower obligations hereunder are direct obligations of payment and not of collection, that such obligations shall not be discharged until the Termination Date. 

(b) It is agreed among each U.S. Borrower, the Agent, the Applicable Issuing Banks and the Applicable Lenders that the provisions of this
Section 2.25 are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents and that, but for such provisions, the Agent, the Applicable Issuing Banks and the Applicable Lenders would decline to make Loans the U.S. Borrowers
and issue Letters of Credit for the account of U.S. Borrowers. Each U.S. Borrower acknowledges that its obligations pursuant to this Section are necessary to the conduct and promotion of its business, and can be expected to benefit such business.

 (c) Nothing contained in this Agreement (including any provisions of this Section 2.25 to the contrary) shall
limit the liability of (i) any U.S. Borrower to pay Loans made directly or indirectly to that U.S. Borrower (including Loans advanced to any other U.S. Borrower and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred
to, or for the benefit of, such U.S. Borrower), U.S. LC Exposure and all accrued interest, fees, expenses and other related U.S. Obligations with respect thereto, for which such U.S. Borrower shall be primarily liable for all purposes hereunder, or
(ii) the Company in respect of all of the U.S. Obligations under the Loan Documents. The Agent, the Applicable Issuing Banks and the U.S. Revolving Lenders shall have the right, at any time in their discretion, to condition Loans and Letters of
Credit upon a separate calculation of borrowing availability for each U.S. Borrower and to restrict the disbursement and use of such Loans and Letters of Credit to such U.S. Borrower. 

(d) Each U.S. Borrower has requested that the Agent and the U.S. Revolving Lenders make this credit facility available to the U.S.
Borrowers on a combined basis, in order to finance the U.S. Borrowers’ business most efficiently and economically. The U.S. Borrowers’ business is a mutual and collective enterprise, and the U.S. Borrowers believe that consolidation of
their credit facility will enhance the borrowing power of each U.S. Borrower and ease the administration of their relationship with the U.S. Revolving Lenders, all to the mutual advantage of the U.S. Borrowers. The U.S. Borrowers acknowledge and
agree that the Agent’s and the U.S. Revolving Lenders’ willingness to extend credit to the U.S. Borrowers and to administer the U.S. Collateral on a combined basis, as set forth herein, is done solely as an accommodation to the U.S.
Borrowers and at the U.S. Borrowers’ request.

 (e) In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state, Federal or
foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any U.S. Borrower under this Section 2.25 or under this Agreement would otherwise be held or determined to be
avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such U.S. Borrower’s liability under this Section 2.25 or under this Agreement, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.25 to the
contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the U.S. Borrowers or the Applicable Lenders, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or
proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant U.S. Borrower’s maximum liability (“U.S. Borrower’s Maximum Liability”). This Section 2.25(e) with respect to the U.S. Borrower’s
Maximum Liability of each U.S. Borrower is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Applicable Lenders to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and no U.S. Borrower nor any other Person or entity shall have any right
or claim under this Section with respect to such U.S. Borrower’s Maximum Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any U.S. Borrower hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each U.S. Borrower
agrees that the U.S. Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the U.S. Borrower’s Maximum Liability of each U.S. Borrower without impairing this Section 2.25 or this Agreement, or affecting the rights and remedies of
the Applicable Lenders hereunder, provided that nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any U.S. Borrower’s obligations hereunder beyond its U.S. Borrower’s Maximum Liability. 

(f) In the event any U.S. Borrower (a “U.S. Paying Borrower”) shall make any payment or payments under this
Section 2.25 or shall suffer any loss as a result of any realization upon any collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this Agreement, each other U.S. Borrower (each a “U.S.
Non-Paying Borrower”) shall contribute to such U.S. Paying Borrower an amount equal to such U.S. Non-Paying Borrower’s “U.S. Borrower Percentage”
of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such U.S. Paying Borrower. For purposes of this Section 2.25, each U.S. Non-Paying Borrower’s “U.S. Borrower
Percentage” with respect to any such payment or loss by a U.S. Paying Borrower shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (i) such U.S.
Non-Paying Borrower’s U.S. Borrower’s Maximum Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such U.S. Non-Paying Borrower’s U.S. Borrower’s Maximum Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such U.S. Non-Paying Borrower from
any other U.S. Borrower after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (ii) the aggregate U.S. Borrower’s Maximum Liability of all U.S. Borrowers hereunder (including such U.S. Paying Borrower) as of such
date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a U.S. Borrower’s Maximum Liability has not been determined for any U.S. Borrower, the aggregate amount of all monies
received by such U.S. Borrowers from any other U.S. Borrower after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this provision shall affect any U.S. Borrower’s several liability for the entire amount of the
U.S. Obligations (up to such U.S. Borrower’s Maximum Liability). Each of the U.S. Borrowers covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this Section 2.25 from a U.S.
Non-Paying Borrower shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the U.S. Obligations until the Termination Date. This provision is for the benefit of all of the Agent, the Applicable Issuing Banks,
the Applicable Lenders, the U.S. Borrowers and the other U.S. Loan Parties and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.

 SECTION 2.26 Loan Account; Statement of Obligations. (a) The Agent shall
maintain in accordance with its usual and customary practices an account or accounts (“Loan Account”) evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrowers within each Borrower Group resulting from each Revolving Loan made to such Borrowers
or issuance of a Letter of Credit for the account of such Borrowers from time to time and all other payment Obligations of such Borrowers hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including accrued interest, fees and expenses thereon. Any failure
of the Agent to record anything in the Loan Account, or any error in doing so, shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers within each Borrower Group to pay any amount owing by such Borrower Group hereunder. The Agent may
maintain a single Loan Account for each Borrower Group in the name of the Borrower Agent, and each Borrower within each Borrower Group confirms that such arrangement shall have no effect on the joint and several character of its liability for the
Obligations of such Borrower Group. In the absence of manifest error, entries made in the Loan Account shall constitute presumptive evidence of the information contained therein. 

(b) The Borrowers within each Borrower Group hereby authorize the Agent, from time to time without prior notice to the Borrowers within
such Borrower Group, to charge to the Loan Account of such Borrower Group all interest and all fees payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, all costs and expenses payable by any Loan Party within such Borrower Group hereunder or
under any of the other Loan Documents, all fees and costs provided for in Section 2.12 with respect to such Borrower Group, and all other payments due and payable under any Loan Document, which amounts so charged shall thereafter
constitute Revolving Loans owing by the Borrowers within such Borrower Group hereunder which shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans in the case of Revolving Loans owing by U.S. Borrowers, Canadian
Base Rate Loans in the case of Revolving Loans denominated in Dollars and owing by the Canadian Borrowers or Canadian Prime Rate Loans in the case of Revolving Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars and owing by the Canadian Borrowers (unless and
until converted into Interest Period Loans in accordance with the terms hereof); provided that the Agent shall not be authorized to charge any such amount to the Loan Account unless the same shall not have been paid by any Loan Party
within the applicable Borrower Group when payment of such amount has otherwise become due and payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document. Any interest not paid by any Loan Party within a Borrower Group within two Business Days after such
payment of such amount has otherwise become due and payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be compounded by being charged to the Loan Account of such Borrower Group and shall thereafter constitute Revolving Loans hereunder owing by
the Borrowers within such Borrower Group and shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans in the case of Revolving Loans owing by U.S. Borrowers, Canadian Base Rate Loans in the case of Revolving Loans
denominated in Dollars and owing by the Canadian Borrowers or Canadian Prime Rate Loans in the case of Revolving Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars and owing by the Canadian Borrowers (unless and until converted into Interest Period Loans in
accordance with the terms hereof). 
 SECTION 2.27 Extensions of Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments. (a) The
Borrower Agent may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Revolving Commitments to the Borrowers within a Borrower Group (including any previously extended Revolving Commitments to such Borrowers) existing at the time
of such request (each, an “Existing Revolving Commitment” and any related revolving loans under any such facility, “Existing Revolving Loans”) be exchanged to extend the termination date thereof and the scheduled
maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of Existing Revolving Loans related to such Existing Revolving Commitments (any such Existing Revolving Commitments which have been so extended,
“Extended Revolving Commitments”, any such Extended Revolving Commitments to the U.S. Borrowers, “Extended U.S. Revolving Commitments”, any such Extended Revolving Commitments to the Canadian Borrowers,
“Extended Canadian Revolving Commitments” and 

  
 - 92 -









 
any related Revolving Loans, “Extended Revolving Loans”, any Extended Revolving Loans to the U.S. Borrowers, “Extended U.S. Revolving Loans” and any Extended
Revolving Loans to the Canadian Borrowers, “Extended Canadian Revolving Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.27. Prior to entering into any Extension Agreement with respect to any
Extended Revolving Commitments to the Borrowers within a Borrower Group, the Borrower Agent shall provide a notice to the Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Applicable Lenders of the applicable Class of Existing Revolving
Commitments) (a “Revolving Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Revolving Commitments to be established thereunder, which terms shall be identical to those applicable to the Existing Revolving
Commitments from which they are to be extended (the “Specified Existing Revolving Commitment Class”) except (x) all or any of the final maturity dates of such Extended Revolving Commitments may be delayed to later dates than
the final maturity dates of the Existing Revolving Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Commitment Class, (y) the all-in pricing (including, without limitation, margins, fees and premiums) with
respect to the Extended Revolving Commitments may be higher or lower than the all-in pricing (including, without limitation, margins, fees and premiums) for the Existing Revolving Commitments of the Specified
Existing Revolving Commitment Class and (z) the commitment fee rate with respect to the Extended Revolving Commitments may be higher or lower than the commitment fee rate for Existing Revolving Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving
Commitment, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Agreement; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.27 or otherwise, (1) the borrowing and repayment (other
than in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments) of the Extended Revolving Loans under any Extended Revolving Commitments to the Borrowers within any Borrower Group shall be made on a pro rata basis with any borrowings
and repayments of the Existing Revolving Loans to the Borrowers within such Borrower Group (the mechanics for which may be implemented through the applicable Extension Agreement and may include technical changes related to the borrowing and
repayment procedures of this Agreement), (2) assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Commitments and Extended Revolving Loans shall be governed by the assignment and participation provisions set forth in Section 9.04
and (3)(I) in the case of Section 2.09, no permanent repayment of Extended Revolving Loans by the Borrowers within a Borrower Group (and corresponding permanent reduction in the related Extended Revolving Commitments to such
Borrowers) shall be permitted unless all Existing Revolving Loans to such Borrowers and all Existing Revolving Commitments to such Borrowers of the Specified Existing Revolving Commitment Class, shall have been repaid in full and terminated,
respectively and (II) in all other cases, no termination of Extended Revolving Commitments to the Borrowers within a Borrower Group and no repayment of Extended Revolving Loans by such Borrowers accompanied by a corresponding permanent
reduction in Extended Revolving Commitments to such Borrowers shall be permitted unless such termination or repayment (and corresponding reduction) is accompanied by at least a pro rata termination or permanent repayment (and corresponding pro rata
permanent reduction), as applicable, of the Existing Revolving Loans to such Borrowers and Existing Revolving Commitments to such Borrowers of the Specified Existing Revolving Commitment Class (or all Existing Revolving Commitments of such Class and
related Existing Revolving Loans shall have otherwise been terminated and repaid in full). Any Extended Revolving Commitments of any Extension Series shall constitute a separate Class of Revolving Commitments from Existing Revolving Commitments of
the Specified Existing Revolving Commitment Class and from any other Existing Revolving Commitments (together with any other Extended Revolving Commitments so established on such date). 

(b) The Borrower Agent shall provide the applicable Extension Request with respect to the Existing Revolving Commitments of the Borrowers
within any Borrower Group at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which the Applicable Lenders under the Existing Class are requested to respond. Any Applicable Lender (an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or
a portion of its Revolving Commitments (or any earlier Extended Revolving Commitments) of an Existing Class subject to such Extension Request exchanged into Extended Loans/Commitments shall notify the Agent (an


  
 - 93 -









 
“Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Revolving Commitments (and/or any earlier Extended Revolving Commitments)
which it has elected to convert into Extended Loans/Commitments to such Borrowers, but in no event shall any Applicable Lender be required to become an Extending Lender. In the event that the aggregate amount of Revolving Commitments (and any
earlier Extended Revolving Commitments) subject to Extension Elections with respect to any Borrower Group exceeds the amount of Extended Loans/Commitments requested by such Borrower Group pursuant to the Extension Request, Revolving Commitments (and
any earlier Extended Revolving Commitments) subject to Extension Elections with respect to such Borrower Group shall be exchanged to Extended Loans/Commitments with respect to such Borrower Group on a pro rata basis based on the amount of Revolving
Commitments (and any earlier Extended Revolving Commitments) included in each such Extension Election. Notwithstanding the conversion of any Existing Revolving Commitment into an Extended Revolving Commitment, such Extended Revolving Commitment
shall be treated identically to all Existing Revolving Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Commitment Class for purposes of the obligations of an Applicable Lender in respect of Swingline Loans under Section 2.05 and Letters
of Credit under Section 2.06, except that the applicable Extension Agreement may provide that the last day for making Swingline Loans and/or the last day for issuing Letters of Credit with respect to the Borrowers within the applicable
Borrower Group may be extended and the related obligations to make Swingline Loans and issue Letters of Credit with respect to such Borrowers may be continued (pursuant to mechanics set forth in the applicable Extension Agreement) so long as the
Applicable Swingline Lender and/or the Applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, have consented to such extensions (it being understood that no consent of any other Lender shall be required in connection with any such extension). 

(c) Extended Loans/Commitments shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an “Extension Agreement”) to this Agreement
(which, except to the extent expressly contemplated by the penultimate sentence of this Section 2.27(c) and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 9.02, shall not require the consent of any Lender other
than the Extending Lenders with respect to the Extended Loans/Commitments established thereby) executed by the Borrower Agent, the Agent and the Extending Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.27 and without
limiting the generality or applicability of Section 9.02 to any Section 2.27 Additional Agreements, any Extension Agreement may provide for additional terms and/or additional amendments other than those referred to or contemplated
above (any such additional amendment, a “Section 2.27 Additional Agreement”) to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that such Section 2.27 Additional Agreements do not become effective prior
to the time that such Section 2.27 Additional Agreements have been consented to (including, without limitation, pursuant to consents applicable to holders of any Extended Loans/Commitments provided for in any Extension Agreement) by such of the
Lenders, Loan Parties and other parties (if any) as may be required in order for such Section 2.27 Additional Agreements to become effective in accordance with Section 9.02. It is understood and agreed that each Lender has
consented, and shall at the effective time thereof be deemed to consent to each amendment to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents authorized by this Section 2.27 and the arrangements described above in connection therewith except
that the foregoing shall not constitute a consent on behalf of any Lender to the terms of any Section 2.27 Additional Agreement. In connection with any Extension Agreement, the Borrower Agent shall deliver an opinion of counsel
reasonably acceptable to the Agent (i) as to the enforceability of such Extension Agreement, this Agreement as amended thereby, and such of the other Loan Documents (if any) as may be amended thereby (in the case of such other Loan Documents as
contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence), (ii) to the effect that such Extension Agreement, including without limitation, the Extended Loans/Commitments provided for therein, does not conflict with or violate the terms and provisions
of Section 9.02 of this Agreement and (iii) as to any other matter reasonably requested by the Agent. 

  
 - 94 -









 SECTION 2.28 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to
the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 
 (a) fees shall cease to accrue on the Available Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a); 

(b) the Commitment and U.S. Revolving Exposure or Canadian Revolving Exposure, as applicable, of such Defaulting Lender shall not be
included in determining whether all Lenders, all affected Lenders, the Required Lenders or the Super Majority Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to
Section 9.02); provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the
consent of such Defaulting Lender; 
 (c) if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time an Applicable Lender
becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 
 (i) all or any part of such Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of such
Applicable Defaulting Lender with respect to the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group shall be reallocated among the non-Applicable Defaulting Lenders with respect to such Borrower Group in
accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (excluding, for purposes of calculating the Applicable Percentages, the Commitments and Loans of the Applicable Defaulting Lender) but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Applicable Defaulting Lenders’ U.S. Revolving Exposures or Canadian Revolving Exposures, as applicable, plus such Applicable Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure with respect to
such Borrower Group does not exceed the lesser of the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Commitments to such Borrower Group and the U.S. Borrowing Base or Canadian Borrowing Base, as
applicable, and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at such time; and 

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers
within the applicable Borrower Group shall within three (3) Business Days following notice by the Agent (x) first, prepay the Swingline Exposure of such Applicable Defaulting Lender with respect to such Borrower Group and
(y) second, cash collateralize such Applicable Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure with respect to such Borrower Group (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures
set forth in Section 2.06(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding; 
 (iii) if the
Borrowers within a Borrower Group cash collateralize any portion of such Applicable Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure with respect to such Borrower Group pursuant to this Section 2.28(c), the Borrowers within such Borrower Group shall
not be required to pay any fees to such Applicable Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Applicable Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure to such Borrowers during the period to the extent such Applicable
Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized; 
 (iv) if the LC Exposure of the Applicable
Defaulting Lender with respect to the Borrowers within a Borrower Group is reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.28(c), then the fees payable to the non-Applicable Defaulting Lenders pursuant to
Section 2.12(a) and Section 2.12(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Applicable Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages (excluding, for purposes of calculating the
Applicable Percentages, the Commitments and Loans of the Applicable Defaulting Lender); or 

  
 - 95 -









 (v) if any Applicable Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither cash
collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.28(c), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Applicable Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under
Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Applicable Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Applicable Issuing Bank until such LC Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated; 

(d) so long as any Applicable Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Applicable Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline
Loan and the Applicable Issuing Banks shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Borrower Group Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrowers within such Borrower Group in accordance with Section 2.28(c), and participating interests in any such newly issued or
increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders to such Borrower Group in a manner consistent with Section 2.28(c)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders
shall not participate therein); and 
 (e) in the event and on the date that each of the Agent, the Borrower Agent, the
Applicable Issuing Banks and the Applicable Swingline Lender agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Applicable Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of the other
Applicable Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of the Revolving Commitment of the Applicable Lender that previously was a Defaulting Lender and on such date such Applicable Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other
Applicable Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Applicable Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. 

SECTION 2.29 Currency Matters. Dollars are the currency of account and payment for each and every sum at any time due from the
Loan Parties hereunder, provided that, unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise agreed to by the Agent: 
 (a) Each repayment of a Loan or a reimbursement of a draw on a Letter of Credit, as applicable, or a part thereof shall be made in the currency in which such Loan or Letter of Credit is
denominated at the time of such repayment; 
 (b) Each payment of interest shall be made in the currency in which such principal
or other sum in respect of which such interest has accrued is denominated; 
 (c) Each payment of fees by a
U.S. Borrower shall be in Dollars; 
 (d) Each payment of fees by a Canadian Borrower shall be in Canadian
Dollars; 
 (e) Each payment in respect of costs, expenses and indemnities shall be made in the currency in which the same
were incurred by the party to whom payment is to be made (unless such currency is not Dollars or Canadian Dollars, in which case such payment shall be made in Dollars); and
 (f) Any amount expressed to be payable in Canadian Dollars shall be paid in Canadian Dollars. 
 No
payment to any Secured Party (whether under any judgment or court order or otherwise) shall discharge the obligation or liability of the Loan Party in respect of which it was made unless and until such Secured Party shall have received payment in
full in the currency in which such obligation or liability was incurred or is outstanding (unless such currency is not Dollars or Canadian Dollars, in which 

  
 - 96 -









 
case such payment shall be made in Dollars). To the extent that the amount of any such payment shall, on actual conversion into such currency, fall short of such obligation or liability, whether
actual or contingent (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made or asserted), expressed in such currency, such Loan Party (together with the other Loan Parties within its Borrower Group) agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless such Secured Party, with respect to the amount of such shortfall, with such indemnity surviving termination of this Agreement and any legal proceeding, judgment or court order pursuant to which the original payment was made which
resulted in the shortfall. To the extent that the amount of any such payment to a Secured Party shall, upon an actual conversion into such currency, exceed such obligation or liability, whether actual or contingent (other than contingent
indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made or asserted), expressed in that currency, such Secured Party shall return such excess to the members of the applicable Borrower Group. 

SECTION 2.30 Currency Fluctuations. 
 (a) On the last Business Day of each calendar month or, in the event that the Exchange Rate fluctuates in excess of ten percent (10%) during such calendar month, any other Business Day in the
reasonable discretion of the Agent (the “Calculation Date”), the Agent shall determine the Exchange Rate as of such date. The Exchange Rate so determined shall become effective on the first Business Day immediately following such
determination (a “Reset Date”) and shall remain effective until the next succeeding Reset Date. Nothing contained in this Section 2.30 shall be construed to require the Agent to calculate compliance under this Section 2.30
more frequently than once each month. 
 (b) On each Reset Date, the Agent shall determine the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the
Canadian Revolving Exposure. 
 (c) If, on any Reset Date, the Canadian Revolving Exposure or the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the
Canadian Obligations exceeds the lesser of the Canadian Revolving Commitments and the Canadian Borrowing Base on such date (the amount of any such excess referred to herein as the “Excess Amount”) then (i) the Agent shall give
notice thereof to the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group and the Applicable Lenders and (ii) within one (1) Business Day thereafter, such Borrowers shall cause such excess to be eliminated, either by repayment of Revolving
Loans to such Borrowers or depositing of Cash Collateral with the Agent with respect to outstanding Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrowers, and until such Excess Amount is repaid or so cash collateralized, the Applicable Lenders
shall not have any obligation to make any Loans. 
 SECTION 2.31 Obligations of the Canadian Loan Parties.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, no Canadian Loan Party shall be liable or in any manner responsible for, or be deemed to have guaranteed, directly or indirectly, whether as a primary obligor,
guarantor, indemnitor, or otherwise, and none of their assets shall secure, directly or indirectly, any of the U.S. Loan Parties’ U.S. Obligations (including, without limitation, principal, interest, fees, penalties, premiums, expenses,
charges, reimbursements, indemnities or any other U.S. Obligations) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

 ARTICLE III. 
 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
 Each Loan Party represents and warrants to
the Lenders that: 
 SECTION 3.01 Organization; Powers. Each of the Loan Parties and each of its Subsidiaries is duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and authority to own its property and assets and to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where the failure
to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required. 

SECTION 3.02 Authorization; Enforceability . The execution, delivery and performance by each of the Loan Parties of each of the
Loan Documents to which it is a party, the borrowing of Loans and the other credit extensions, the use of the proceeds thereof and the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder are, to the extent applicable, within each applicable Loan Party’s
organizational powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary organizational and, if required, equityholder action of such Loan Party. Each Loan Document to which each Loan Party is a party has been duly executed and delivered by such Loan
Party and is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of
equity. 
 SECTION 3.03 Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by each of the Loan
Parties of each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, the borrowing of Loans and the other credit extensions, the use of the proceeds thereof and the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder (a) do not require any consent or approval of,
registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except (i) such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, and (ii) for filings necessary to perfect Liens created pursuant to the Loan
Documents, (b) will not violate any Requirement of Law applicable to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon any Loan Party or
any of its Subsidiaries or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of any Loan
Party or any of its Subsidiaries, except Liens created pursuant to the Loan Documents and the Senior Secured Notes Security Documents; except, in each case other than with respect to the creation of Liens, to the extent that any such violation,
default or right, or any failure to obtain such consent or approval or to take any such action, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 SECTION 3.04 Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Change. (a) The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet of Holdings and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of September 30, 2012
(including any notes thereto) (the “Pro Forma Balance Sheet” and such date, the “Pro Forma Balance Sheet Date”), copies of which have heretofore been furnished to each Lender, has been prepared giving effect (as if
such events had occurred on such date) to the consummation of the Transactions. The Pro Forma Balance Sheet has been prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable as of the date thereof, and presents fairly on a pro forma
basis the estimated financial position of Holdings and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at the Pro Forma Balance Sheet Date, assuming that the events specified in the preceding sentence had actually occurred at such date. 

(b) The audited consolidated balance sheets of Holdings and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of January 2, 2010, January 1,
2011, and December 31, 2011, and the related consolidated statements of income and of cash flows of Holdings and its consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal years ended on such dates, reported on by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent
public accountants, present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial position of Holdings and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of such dates and the consolidated results of operations and consolidated cash flows of Holdings and its
consolidated Subsidiaries for the respective fiscal years ended as of such dates. The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of Holdings and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of October 27, 


  
 - 98 -









 
2012, and the related unaudited consolidated statements of income and cash flows of Holdings and its consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal month period ended on such date, and the
corresponding statements of income and cash flows of Holdings and its consolidated Subsidiaries for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of Holdings and its
consolidated Subsidiaries as of such dates (subject to the absence of footnotes and normal year-end adjustments) and the consolidated results of operations and consolidated cash flows of Holdings and its
consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal-month period ended as of such dates (subject to the absence of footnotes and normal year-end adjustments). All such financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved (except as approved by the aforementioned firm of accountants and disclosed therein). No U.S. Loan Party has any material liabilities or material obligations of any kind
whatsoever, whether accrued, contingent, absolute, determined, determinable or otherwise, and whether due or to become due, other than liabilities or obligations provided for in the financial statements referred to in this paragraph, liabilities or
obligations arising in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice or liabilities which would not be required to be disclosed in an audited balance sheet (or in the notes thereto) that is prepared in accordance with GAAP.

 (c) No event, change or condition has occurred that has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse
Effect, since the Effective Date. 
 SECTION 3.05 Properties. Each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries has good and
insurable fee simple title to, or valid leasehold interests in, or easements or other limited property interests in, all its real properties (including all Mortgaged Properties) and has good and marketable title to its personal property and assets,
in each case, except for defects in title that do not materially interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such properties and assets for their intended purposes and except where the failure to have such
title would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. All such properties and assets are free and clear of Liens, other than Liens (i) permitted by Section 6.02 or
(ii) arising by operation of law (which Liens, in the case of this clause (ii) do not materially interfere with the ability of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries to carry on its business as now conducted or to utilize the affected
properties or assets for their intended purposes). 
 SECTION 3.06 Litigation and Environmental Matters. (a) There
are no actions, suits or proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened against or affecting the Loan Parties or any of their Subsidiaries (i) as to which
there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined, would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) that involve any Loan Documents.

 (b) Except for matters that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect (i) no Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries has received written notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability and (ii) no Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries (1) has failed to comply with any
Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any permit, license or other approval required under any Environmental Law or (2) has become subject to any Environmental Liability. 

SECTION 3.07 Compliance with Laws, No Default. Each Loan Party is in compliance with all Requirements of Law applicable to it or
its property, except where the failure to be so in compliance, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No Default has occurred and is continuing. 

  
 - 99 -









 SECTION 3.08 Investment Company Status. No Loan Party is an “investment
company” as defined in, or is required to be registered under, the Investment Company Act of 1940. 
 SECTION 3.09
Taxes. Each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be filed all Tax returns and reports required to have been filed and has paid or caused to be paid all Taxes required to have been paid by it, except (a) Taxes that
are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which such Loan Party or such Subsidiary, as applicable, has set aside on its books adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP or (b) to the extent that the failure to do so,
individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 SECTION 3.10
ERISA; Canadian Pension Plans. (a) (a) No ERISA Event has occurred in the five year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made and is continuing or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken
together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the
present value of all accumulated benefit obligations under all Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting
such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the assets of such Plans, in the aggregate. 
 (b) Canadian Loan Parties are in
compliance in all material respects with the requirements of the PBA and of any binding requirements of general application of a Governmental Authority with respect to each Canadian Pension Plan and are in compliance with any directive or order of a
Governmental Authority directed specifically at a Canadian Pension Plan. No fact or situation that may reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect exists in connection with any Canadian Pension Plan. No Canadian Loan Party or an
Affiliate thereof maintains, contributes or has any liability with respect to a Canadian Pension Plan which provides benefits on a defined benefit basis other than a Canadian MEPP. No Pension Event has occurred that when taken together with all
other Pension Events and ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. All contributions required to be made by any Canadian Loan Party or its Subsidiary to any
Canadian Pension Plan have been made in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such Canadian Pension Plan and the PBA. No Lien has arisen, choate or inchoate, in respect of any Canadian Loan Party or their property in connection with any
Canadian Pension Plan (save for contribution amounts not yet due). 
 SECTION 3.11 Disclosure. (a) All written
information (other than the Projections, the pro forma financial statements and estimates and information of a general economic or general industry nature) concerning the Company, the Transactions and any other transactions contemplated hereby
prepared by or on behalf of the foregoing or their representatives and made available to any Lender or the Agent in connection with the Transactions on or before the date hereof (the “Information”), when taken as a whole, as of the
date such Information was furnished to the Lenders and as of the Effective Date, did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact as of any such date or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein
not misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made (giving effect to all supplements and updates). 
 (b) The Projections, pro forma financial statements and estimates prepared by or on behalf of the Company or any of its representatives and that have been made available to any Lender or the Agent in
connection with the Transactions on or before the date hereof (the “Other Information”) (i) have been prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable as of the date thereof (it being recognized that such
Other Information is as to future events and is not to be viewed as a 

  
 - 100 -









 
fact, the Other Information is subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries, that no assurance can be
given that any particular projections will be realized and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Other Information may differ from the projected results and such differences may be material), and (ii) as of the
Effective Date, have not been modified in any material respect by the Loan Parties. 
 SECTION 3.12 Solvency. As of the
Effective Date, and immediately after giving effect to the Canadian Acquisition and the consummation of the other Transactions to occur on the Effective Date, (i) the fair value of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, on a
consolidated basis, at a fair valuation, will exceed the debts and liabilities, direct, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, of the Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis; (ii) the present fair saleable value of the property of
the Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, on their debts and other liabilities, direct,
subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured; (iii) the Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, will be able to pay their debts and liabilities, direct, subordinated,
contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured; and (iv) the Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the businesses in which they
are engaged as such businesses are now conducted and are proposed to be conducted following the Effective Date. 
 SECTION 3.13
Insurance. All insurance required by Section 5.10 is in full force and effect and all premiums in respect of such insurance have been duly paid. The Company believes that the insurance maintained by or on behalf of the Company and
the Subsidiaries is adequate and is in accordance with normal industry practice. 
 SECTION 3.14 Capitalization and
Subsidiaries. As of the date hereof, Schedule 3.14 sets forth (a) a correct and complete list of the name and relationship to the Company of each and all of the Company’s Subsidiaries, (b) a true and complete listing
of each class of the Company’s and each Subsidiary’s authorized Equity Interests, of which all of such issued shares are validly issued, outstanding, fully paid and non-assessable, and owned
beneficially and of record by the Persons identified on Schedule 3.14, and (c) the type of entity of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries. All of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of the Subsidiaries owned by any Loan
Party have been (to the extent such concepts are relevant with respect to such ownership interests) duly authorized and issued and are fully paid and non-assessable free and clear of all Liens (other than
Liens permitted pursuant to Section 6.02). As of the Effective Date, there are no outstanding purchase options, warrants, subscription rights, agreements to issue or sell, convertible interests or powers of attorney granted by the
Company or a Subsidiary of the Company relating to Equity Interests of the Company or any Subsidiary. 
 SECTION 3.15
Security Interest in Collateral. The provisions of the Collateral Documents are effective to create legal and valid Liens (a) on the applicable U.S. Collateral described in each therein in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of the
Agent, the Lenders and the other Secured Parties and (b) on the applicable Canadian Collateral described in each therein in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent, the Canadian Lenders and the other applicable Secured Parties (in each
case, to the extent such matter is governed by the laws of the United States, Canada or any respective jurisdiction therein); and upon the taking of all actions described in the Loan Documents (but subject to the limitations set forth therein),
including, without limitation, the filing of UCC financing statements covering the appropriate Collateral in the state of organization of each applicable U.S. Loan Party, the filing of PPSA and UCC financing statements covering the appropriate
Collateral in the places of the registered office or domicile, the chief executive office and principal place of business and locations of Collateral of each Canadian Loan Party and the filings of short form agreements or other applicable


  
 - 101 -









 
documents or notices in respect of registered and applied for United States and Canadian federal intellectual property owned by each Loan Party, such Liens will constitute perfected Liens on the
Collateral, securing the applicable Secured Obligations, enforceable against the applicable Loan Party, and having priority over all other Liens on the Collateral except in the case of (a) Permitted Encumbrances and other Liens permitted under
Section 6.02, to the extent any such Permitted Encumbrances or such Liens would have priority over the Liens in favor of the Agent pursuant to any applicable law or otherwise, (b) Liens perfected only by possession (including
possession of any certificate of title) to the extent the Agent has not obtained or does not maintain possession of such Collateral and (c) subject to and as provided for under the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Liens granted to the

 SECTION 3.16 Labor
Disputes. Except as, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: (a) there are no strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against any Loan Party pending or, to the knowledge of the Company,
threatened, (b) the hours worked by and payments made to employees of the Loan Parties and the Subsidiaries have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable federal, state, provincial, local or foreign law
dealing with such matters and (c) all payments due from any Loan Party or any Subsidiary, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of the Loan Party
or such Subsidiary to the extent required by GAAP. Except as, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect the consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to a right of termination or
right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries (or any predecessor) is a party or by which any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries (or any predecessor)
is bound. 
 SECTION 3.17 Federal Reserve Regulations. (a) On the Effective Date, none of the Collateral is Margin
Stock. 
 (b) No Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the
business of extending credit for the purpose of buying or carrying Margin Stock. 
 (c) No part of the proceeds of any Loan or
any Letter of Credit will be used, whether directly or indirectly, and whether immediately, incidentally or ultimately for any purpose that entails a violation of, or that is inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation T, U or X.

 SECTION 3.18 Senior Indebtedness. The obligations of the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents (a) for principal
(including reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit whether or not drawn), interest (including, to the extent legally permitted, all interest accrued thereon after the commencement of any insolvency or liquidation proceeding at
the rate, including any applicable post-default rate, specified in the applicable agreement), premium (if any), fees, indemnifications, reimbursements, expenses, damages and other liabilities payable under the Loan Documents constitute “Senior
Indebtedness” under and as defined in the Senior Subordinated Note Documents, and (b) for unpaid principal (including reimbursement obligations with respect to drawn Letters of Credit) and accrued interest (including, to the extent legally
permitted, all interest accrued thereon after the commencement of any insolvency or liquidation proceeding at the rate, including any applicable post-default rate, specified in the applicable agreement) constitute “Designated Senior
Indebtedness” under and as defined in the Senior Subordinated Note Documents. The U.S. Obligations constitute “ABL Debt Obligations” under and as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement. The Senior Secured Notes are not secured by any
of the Canadian Collateral and the Lien priorities established pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement do not apply to the Canadian Collateral. 

  
 - 102 -









 SECTION 3.19 Intellectual Property. Each Loan Party owns or has the lawful right to
use all material intellectual property used in the conduct of its business, without conflict with any intellectual property rights of others, except as, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. Except as, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, there is no pending or, to any Borrower’s knowledge, threatened claim that any Loan Party’s ownership, use, marketing,
sale or distribution of any Inventory or other product violates another Person’s intellectual property rights. 
 SECTION
3.20 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans and the Letters of Credit shall be used (a) to pay a portion of the Canadian Acquisition Funds, and (b) for capital expenditures, working capital needs of

 SECTION 6.10 Restrictive Agreements. No Loan Party will, nor will it permit any Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, enter into, incur or permit to exist any agreement or other contractual
arrangement to which it is a party or by which its property is bound that prohibits, restricts or imposes any condition upon the ability of such Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries to create, incur or permit to exist any Lien upon any of its

in writing that it has any further liability under the Loan Guaranty to which it is a party; 
 (m) (i) any

6.05), fail to create a valid and perfected security interest with the priority required by the Collateral Documents (subject to the Intercreditor Agreement) in any Collateral purported to be covered thereby, except to the extent that any
such loss of perfection or priority results from the failure of the Agent to maintain possession of certificates actually delivered to it representing securities pledged under the Collateral Documents or to file UCC or PPSA continuation statements
and except as to Collateral consisting of real property to the extent that such losses are covered by a lender’s title insurance policy and such insurer has been notified and has not denied coverage, or (ii) any Collateral Document shall
fail to remain in full force or effect or any action shall be taken by any Loan Party to discontinue or to assert the invalidity or unenforceability of any Collateral Document;

 then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to any Loan Party described in clause (g) or (h) of this Article), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such

terminate immediately, (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and payable), and thereupon the

other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by each Loan Party, and (iii) require that the Borrowers deposit in the LC Collateral Account an amount in cash equal to 103% of the then outstanding LC Exposure; provided

SECTION 7.02 Cure Right. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article VII, in the event
that the Company fails to comply with the requirements of Section 6.12, until the expiration of the 10th day subsequent to the date the certificate calculating the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is required to be delivered pursuant to
Section 5.01(d), Holdings (or any direct or indirect parent thereof) shall have the right to issue Permitted Cure Securities for cash or otherwise receive cash contributions to (or in the case of any direct or indirect parent of Holdings
receive equity interests in Holdings for its cash contributions to) the capital of Holdings (collectively, the “Cure Right”), and upon contribution by Holdings of such cash in return for common Equity Interests or for existing
Equity Interests to the Company (the “Cure Amount”) pursuant to the exercise by the Company of such Cure Right, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio under Section 6.12 shall be recalculated giving effect to the following pro
forma adjustments: 
 (i) EBITDA shall be increased with respect to such applicable fiscal quarter and any Test
Period that contains such fiscal quarter, solely for the purpose of measuring the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio under Section 6.12 and not for any other purpose under this Agreement, by an amount equal to the Cure Amount; and 

(ii) if, after giving effect to the foregoing pro forma adjustments, the Company shall then be in compliance with
Section 6.12, the Company shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of Section 6.12 as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date,
and the applicable breach or default of Section 6.12 that had occurred shall be deemed cured for purposes of this Agreement. 

  
 - 139 -









 (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) in each four fiscal-quarter
period there shall be at least two fiscal quarters during which the Cure Right is not exercised, (ii) the Cure Amount shall be no greater than the amount required for purposes of complying with Section 6.12 and (iii) all Cure
Amounts shall be disregarded for purposes of determining any baskets or ratios with respect to the other covenants contained in the Loan Documents. 
 SECTION 7.03 Exclusion of Immaterial Subsidiaries. Solely for the purposes of determining whether an Event of Default has occurred under clause (g) or (h) of Section 7.01, any
reference in any such paragraph to any Subsidiary shall be deemed not to include any Immaterial Subsidiary affected by any event or circumstance referred to in any such paragraph; provided that if it is necessary to exclude more than
one Subsidiary from paragraph (g) or (h) of Section 7.01 pursuant to this Section 7.03 in order to avoid an Event of Default thereunder, all excluded Subsidiaries shall be considered to be a single consolidated
Subsidiary for purposes of determining whether the condition specified above is satisfied. 
 ARTICLE VIII. 

THE AGENT 

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints the Agent as its agent and authorizes the Agent to take such
actions on its behalf, including execution of the other Loan Documents, and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent shall have the sole and exclusive authority to (a) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for Lenders with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection with the Loan
Documents, including, with respect to the Canadian Loan Parties, the Agent acting through its Canada branch; (b) execute and deliver as Agent each Loan Document, including any intercreditor or subordination agreement, and accept delivery of
each Loan Document from any Loan Party or other Person; (c) act as collateral agent for Secured Parties for purposes of perfecting and administering Liens under the Loan Documents, and for all other purposes stated therein; (d) manage,
supervise or otherwise deal with Collateral; and (e) take any enforcement action or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral under the Loan Documents, applicable law or otherwise. The Agent alone shall be
authorized to determine whether any Accounts or Inventory constitute Eligible Receivables or Eligible Inventory, or whether to impose or release any Reserve, which determinations and judgments, if exercised in good faith, shall exonerate the Agent
from liability to any Lender or other Person for any error in judgment. 
 Any bank serving as the Agent hereunder shall have
the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of
business with the Loan Parties or any subsidiary of a Loan Party or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Agent hereunder. 
 The Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Agent shall not be subject to any
fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and
powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in
Section 9.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Loan Party or any of its
subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as the Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at


  
 - 140 -









 
the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of,
or for any losses not directly and solely caused by, its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Agent by the Borrower Agent
or a Lender, and the Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate,
report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection with any Loan Document, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity,
enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral or the existence of the Collateral, or (vi) the
satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent. 

If any Lender acquires knowledge of a Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly notify the Agent and the other Lenders thereof in
writing. Each Lender agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any Loan Documents or with the written consent of the Agent and the Required Lenders, it will not take any enforcement action, accelerate the Obligations under any Loan Documents, or
exercise any right that it might otherwise have under Applicable Law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC sales or other similar dispositions of Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, a Lender may take action to preserve or enforce
its rights against a Loan Party where a deadline or limitation period is applicable that would, absent such action, bar enforcement of the Obligations held by such Lender, including the filing of proofs of claim in a Bankruptcy Proceeding.

 The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request,
certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it
to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable
for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 The Agent
may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more agents, co-agents or sub-agents appointed by the Agent. The Agent and
any such agents, co-agents or sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The Lenders shall
execute and deliver such documents as the Agent deems appropriate to vest any rights or remedies in such agents, co-agents or sub-agent. The exculpatory provisions of
the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such agents, co-agents or sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Agent and any agents,
co-agents or such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as
activities as the Agent. 
 Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor to the Agent as provided in this paragraph,
the Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower Agent. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of the Company,
to appoint a successor; provided that, during the existence and continuation of an Event of Default, no consent of the Company shall be required. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted
such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a


  
 - 141 -









 
commercial bank or an Affiliate of any such commercial bank reasonably acceptable to the Company. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as the Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor
shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Company to a successor Agent
shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect
for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents, branches and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as the Agent. Any
successor to BANA by merger or acquisition of stock or this loan shall continue to be the Agent hereunder without further act on the part of the parties hereto, unless such successor resigns as provided above. 

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents
and information as it has deemed appropriate, 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 Agent or any other Lender and based on such
documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished
hereunder or thereunder. 
 Each Lender hereby agrees that (a) it has requested a copy of each Report prepared by or on
behalf of the Agent; (b) the Agent (i) does not make any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the completeness or accuracy of any Report or any of the information contained therein or any inaccuracy or omission contained
in or relating to a Report or (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report; (c) the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, and that any Person performing any field examination will inspect only
specific information regarding the Loan Parties and will rely significantly upon the Loan Parties’ books and records, as well as on representations of the Loan Parties’ personnel and that the Agent undertakes no obligation to update,
correct or supplement the Reports; (d) it will keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use, not share the Report with any Loan Party or any other Person except as otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement; and
(e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, it will pay and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold the Agent and any such other Person preparing a Report harmless from and against,
the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Agent or such other Person as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part
of any Report through the indemnifying Lender and any action such Lender may take as a result of or any conclusion it may draw from any such Report. 
 For the purposes of creating a solidarité active in accordance with Article 1541 of the Civil Code of Quebec between each Secured Party, taken individually, on the one hand, and the Agent, on
the other hand, each Loan Party and each such Secured Party acknowledge and agree with the Agent that such Secured Party and the Agent are hereby conferred the legal status of solidary creditors of each such Loan Party in respect of all Obligations
owed by each such Loan Party to the Agent and such Secured Party hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Solidary Claim”) and that, accordingly, but subject (for the avoidance of doubt) to Article 1542
of the Civil Code of Quebec, each such Loan Party is irrevocably bound towards the Agent and each Secured Party in respect of the entire Solidary Claim of the Agent and such Secured Party. As a result of the foregoing, the parties hereto acknowledge
that the Agent and each Secured Party shall at all times have a valid and effective right of action for the entire Solidary Claim of the Agent and such Secured Party and the right to give full acquittance for it. Accordingly, and without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Agent, as solidary creditor with each Secured Party, shall at all times have a valid and effective right of action in 

  
 - 142 -









 
respect of the Solidary Claim and the right to give a full acquittance for same. By its execution of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, each such Loan Party not a party hereto shall also
be deemed to have accepted the stipulations hereinabove provided. The parties further agree and acknowledge that such Liens (hypothecs) under the Collateral Documents and the other Loan Documents shall be granted to the Agent, for its own benefit
and for the benefit of the applicable Secured Parties, as solidary creditor as hereinabove set forth. 
 In addition, and
without limiting any of the foregoing, for the purposes of holding any hypothec granted to the Attorney (as defined below) pursuant to the laws of the Province of Quebec to secure payment of any debenture issued by any Loan Party, each of the
Secured Parties (as defined below) hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agent and, to the extent necessary, ratifies the appointment and authorization of the Agent, to act as the person holding the power of attorney (i.e.
“fondé de pouvoir”) (in such capacity, the “Attorney”) of the creditors as contemplated under Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec, and to enter into, to take and to hold on their behalf, and for their
benefit, any hypothec, and to exercise such powers and duties that are conferred upon the Attorney under any related deed of hypothec. Moreover, without prejudice to such appointment and authorization to act as the person holding the power of
attorney as aforesaid, each of the Secured Parties hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agent (in such capacity, the “Quebec Custodian”) to act as agent and custodian for and on behalf of the Secured Parties to hold and be
the sole registered holder of any debenture which may be issued under any such deed of hypothec, the whole notwithstanding Section 32 of An Act respecting the special powers of legal persons (Quebec) or any other applicable law, and to
execute all related documents. Each of the Attorney and the Quebec Custodian shall: (a) have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise, except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms hereof, all rights and remedies
given to the Attorney and the Quebec Custodian (as applicable) pursuant to any such deed of hypothec, debenture, debenture pledge agreement, applicable laws or otherwise, (b) benefit from and be subject to all provisions hereof with respect to
the Agent mutatis mutandis, including, without limitation, all such provisions with respect to the liability or responsibility to and indemnification by the Secured Parties, and (c) be entitled to delegate from time to time any of its
powers or duties under any deed of hypothec, debenture, or debenture pledge agreement on such terms and conditions as it may determine from time to time. Any person who becomes a Secured Party shall, by its execution of an Assignment and Assumption,
be deemed to have consented to and confirmed: (i) the Attorney as the person holding the power of attorney as aforesaid and to have ratified, as of the date it becomes a Secured Party, all actions taken by the Attorney in such capacity, and
(ii) the Quebec Custodian as the agent and custodian as aforesaid and to have ratified, as of the date it becomes a Secured Party, all actions taken by the Quebec Custodian in such capacity. The substitution of the Agent pursuant to the
provisions of this Section 9 also constitute the substitution of the Attorney and the Quebec Custodian. For the purposes of this paragraph, “Secured Parties” means collectively (a) the Lenders, (b) the Agent,

 SECTION 9.02 Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure
or delay by the Agent, an Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any
abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder
and under any other Loan Document are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any
event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, to the extent permitted by law, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Agent, any Lender or an Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of
such Default at the time. 
 (b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be
waived, amended or modified except (i) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or (ii) in the case of any other Loan Document (other than any
such amendment to effectuate any modification thereto expressly contemplated by the terms of such other Loan Documents), pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties
thereto, with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (A) increase the Commitment of any Lender (including any Defaulting Lender) without the written consent of such Lender; it being understood
that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Article IV or the waiver of any Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of any Revolving Commitments, or the making of any Protective Advance, so long as in compliance
with the provisions of Section 2.04, shall not constitute an increase of any Revolving Commitment of any Revolving Lender; provided that any change to the second and third provisos to the second sentence of
Section 2.04(a) shall require the written consent of each Revolving Lender, (B) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce or forgive any interest or
fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (including any Defaulting Lender), (C) postpone any scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any date for
the payment of any interest, fees or other Obligations payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly
affected thereby; provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the provisions of Section 2.13(f) providing for the default rate of interest, or to waive any obligations of the Borrowers
to pay interest at such default rate, (D) increase the advance rates set forth in the definition of Canadian Borrowing Base or U.S. Borrowing Base without the written consent of the Super Majority Lenders, (E) change any of the provisions
of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders”, “Super Majority Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Revolving Lenders (or Revolving Lenders of any Class) required
to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Revolving Lender, (F) release all or substantially all of the Loan Guarantors from their obligations
under the Loan Guaranty (except as otherwise permitted herein or in the other Loan Documents, including pursuant to Section 6.03, 6.05 or 10.11 hereof), without the written consent of each Lender, (G) except as
provided in clause (c) or (d) of this Section or in any Collateral Document, release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the written consent of each Lender or (H) make any change to the definition of “Aggregate
Borrowing Base,” “Borrowing Base”, “Canadian Borrowing Base”, “Eligible Tire Inventory”, “Eligible Non-Tire Inventory”, “Eligible


  
 - 145 -









 
Receivable” or “Net Orderly Liquidation Value”, “U.S. Borrowing Base”, or “Value” or add any new categories of eligible assets, in each case, that would have
the effect of increasing the amount of the U.S. Borrowing Base or the Canadian Borrowing Base, without the written consent of the Super Majority Lenders; and provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise
affect the rights or duties of the Agent, any Applicable Issuing Bank or any Applicable Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Agent, such Applicable Issuing Bank or such Applicable Swingline Lender, as the case may be.
The Agent may also amend the Commitment Schedule to reflect assignments entered into pursuant to Section 9.04. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any
amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that any Commitment or Loan held or deemed held by any Defaulting Lender shall be excluded
from a vote of the Lenders hereunder requiring any consent of the Lenders). 
 (c) The Lenders hereby irrevocably agree that the
Liens granted to the Agent by the Loan Parties on any Collateral shall be automatically released (i) upon the Termination Date, (ii) upon the sale or other disposition of the property constituting such Collateral (including as part of or
in connection with any other sale or other disposition permitted hereunder) to any Person other than another Loan Party, to the extent such sale or other disposition is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (and the Agent may rely
conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by any Loan Party upon its reasonable request without further inquiry), (iii) to the extent such Collateral is comprised of property leased to a Loan Party, upon termination or
expiration of such lease, (iv) subject to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.02, if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, (v) to the extent the property constituting
such Collateral is owned by any Loan Guarantor, upon the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Loan Guaranty in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (vi) as required to effect any sale or other disposition of
such Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Agent and the Lenders pursuant to the Collateral Documents, and (vii) as required pursuant to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement; provided that the Agent
may, in its discretion, release the Lien on Collateral valued in the aggregate not in excess of $5,000,000 during each fiscal year without the consent of any Lender. Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the
Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute
part of the Collateral to the extent required under the provisions of the Loan Documents. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in Section 9.02, guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents executed by Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Agent and may be amended and
waived with the consent of the Agent at the request of the Borrower Agent without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lenders if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local law or advice of local counsel,
(ii) to cure ambiguities or defects or (iii) to cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

(e) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Revolving Lender”,
“each Lender”, “each Revolving Lender directly affected thereby” or “each Lender directly affected thereby”, the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained
(any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Company may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender
party to this Agreement, provided that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash at par
the Loans and other Obligations due to the 

  
 - 146 -









 
Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations
of the Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of clause (b) of Section 9.04, (ii) the replacement Lender shall pay the processing and
recordation fee referred to in Section 9.04(b)(iii)(C), if applicable in accordance with the terms of such Section, (iii) the replacement Lender shall grant its consent with respect to the applicable proposed amendment, waiver or
consent and (iv) the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (1) all interest, fees and other amounts
then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by the Borrowers within such Borrower Group hereunder to and including the date of termination, including, without limitation, payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 2.15 and 2.17, and (2) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under
Section 2.16 had the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender. 

SECTION 9.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Company shall pay (i) all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent, each of the Joint Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of
Parker, Hudson, Rainer & Dobbs LLP and Norton Rose Canada LLP, counsel for the Agent, in connection with the syndication and distribution (including, without limitation, via the internet or through a service such as Intralinks) of the
credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation of the Loan Documents and related documentation, (ii) all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by the Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one firm of outside U.S. legal counsel and one firm of outside Canadian local counsel (to the extent relevant) to the Agent, in connection with any
amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions of any Loan Documents (whether or not the transactions contemplated thereby shall be consummated), (iii) all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent, Issuing Banks or the Lenders, including the reasonable documented fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Agent and for one law firm retained by
the Lenders, in connection with the enforcement, collection or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder,
including all such reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or related negotiations in respect of such Loans of Letters of
Credit, and (iv) subject to any other provisions of this Agreement and the Loan Documents, all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent in
the administration of the Loan Documents. Expenses reimbursable by the Company under this Section include, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, subject to any other applicable provision of any Loan Document, reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with: 
 (i) appraisals; 
 (ii) field examinations and the preparation of
Reports based on the fees charged by a third party retained by the Agent or (notwithstanding any reference to “out-of-pocket” above in this
Section 9.03) the internally allocated fees for each Person employed by the Agent with respect to each field examination; 
 (iii) lien and title searches, title insurance and endorsements to Title Insurance Policies; 
 (iv) taxes, fees and other charges for recording any Mortgages, filing financing statements and continuations, and other actions to perfect, protect, and continue the Agent’s Liens; and 

  
 - 147 -









 (v) forwarding loan proceeds, collecting checks and other items of payment,
and establishing and maintaining the accounts and lock boxes, and costs and expenses of preserving and protecting the Collateral. 
 Other than to the extent required to be paid on the Effective Date, all amounts due under this paragraph (a) shall be payable by the Company within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of an
invoice relating thereto and setting forth such expenses in reasonable detail. 
 (b) Each Borrower shall indemnify the Agent,
each Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages,
penalties, liabilities and related reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, expenses (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel
for all Indemnitees and, if necessary, of a single separate firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) for all Indemnitees (and, in the case of an actual or
perceived conflict of interest (as reasonably determined by the Indemnitee affected by such conflict) where such Indemnitee informs the Company of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel for such affected
Indemnitee) incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of the Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the
parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an
Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any Environmental Liability related in any way
to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any
Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by any Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any
Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities or related expenses or fees (i) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, its Affiliates or any of its Related Parties, (ii) result from a material breach of the obligations of any such Indemnitee or one of its Related Parties under the Loan Documents or
(iii) disputes brought by and between and among Indemnitees (not involving an act or omission of the Borrowers, the other Loan Parties or their Affiliates as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision); provided that the Agent, Issuing Banks and Swingline Lenders shall remain indemnified in respect of such disputes to the extent otherwise entitled to be so indemnified.

 (c) To the extent that any Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Agent, an Issuing Bank or a
Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agent, such Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time
that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, penalty, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was
incurred by or asserted against the Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. 
 (d) To the
extent permitted by applicable law, no party to this Agreement shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto or any Related Party thereof, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive
damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds
thereof. 

  
 - 148 -









 (e) All amounts due under this Section shall be paid, unless otherwise specified, promptly
after written demand therefor. 
 SECTION 9.04 Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) other than as a matter of
law following an event that is permitted in accordance with Section 6.03 of this Agreement, no Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and
any attempted assignment or transfer by any Loan Party without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section (any attempted
assignment or transfer not complying with the terms of this Section shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors
and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related
Parties of each of the Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of: 

(A) the Company; provided that no consent of the Company shall be required if an Event of Default specified
in paragraphs (a), (g) or (h) of Section 7.01 has occurred and is continuing; 
 (B)
the Agent; and 
 (C) each Applicable Issuing Bank. 

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth herein, any assignment of any Loans or
Commitments to any Purchasing Debt Affiliate shall also be subject to the requirements of Section 9.04(f). 
 (iii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 
 (A) except in the case of an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans
of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or the principal amount of Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Agent
and determined on an aggregate basis in the event of concurrent assignments to Related Funds (as defined below)) shall not be less than $1,000,000 unless each of the Company and the Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such
consent of the Company shall be required if an Event of Default specified in paragraphs (a), (g) or (h) of Section 7.01 has occurred and is continuing; 

  
 - 149 -









 (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a
proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; 
 (C) the
parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; 
 (D) the assignee shall execute and deliver to the Agent an agreement to be a party and subject to, and accept the terms of, the allocation and exchange mechanism agreement among the Agent and the Lenders;
and 
 (E) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver on or prior to the effective date of such
assignment, (1) to the Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and (2) to the Borrower Agent (with a copy to the Agent) the tax forms required by Sections 2.17(e) and (f). 

The term “Related Funds” shall mean with respect to any Lender that is an Approved Fund, any other Approved Fund that is
managed or advised by the same investment advisor as such Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor. 

(iv) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of this Section, from and after the
effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this
Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of
the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 with
respect to facts and circumstances occurring on or prior to the effective date of such assignment). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be
treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section. 

(v) The Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each
Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender
pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower Agent, the Issuing Banks
and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (vi) Upon its
receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and tax forms required by Section 9.04(b)(iii)(D)(2) (unless the assignee
shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Agent shall


  
 - 150 -









 
accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to
make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05, 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b), 2.18(c) or 9.03(c), the Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the
information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register
as provided in this paragraph. 
 (vii) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption, the assigning
Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being
assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and that its Commitment, and the outstanding balances of its Loans, in each case without giving effect to assignments thereof which have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment
and Assumption, (ii) except as set forth in (i) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this
Agreement, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of any Borrower
or any Subsidiary or the performance or observance by any Borrower or any Subsidiary of any of its obligations under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee
represents and warrants that it is an Eligible Assignee, legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (iv) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent
financial statements referred to in Section 3.04(a) or delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such
Assignment and Assumption; (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to
make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated
to the Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are
required to be performed by it as a Lender. 
 (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of any Borrower, the Borrower Agent,
the Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all
or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties
hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment,
modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver
described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by 

  
 - 151 -









 
assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a
Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely as a non-fiduciary agent (solely
for tax purposes) of the Borrower, shall maintain a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Participants and principal amount (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under
this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Lender, each Loan Party and the Agent shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the
Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. 
 (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the
participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent. No Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless the Company
is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.17(e) or (f), as applicable, as though it were a Lender. 

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure
obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that
no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special
purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Agent and the Borrower Agent, the option to provide to the Borrowers all or any part of any Loan that such Granting
Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise
such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting
Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or
otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement (including its obligations under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment
obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender) and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes including approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of the Loan
Documents, remain the Lender of record hereunder. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the
payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or
liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written
consent of, the Borrowers, the Borrower Agent and the Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Company
and the Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public
information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

 (f) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender
may assign all or a portion of its Commitments and/or Loans to any Purchasing Debt Affiliate in accordance with Section 9.04(f); provided that: 

(i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing or would result therefrom; and 

(ii) no Loan or Commitment may be assigned to a Purchasing Debt Affiliate pursuant to this Section 9.04(f), if
after giving effect to such assignment, Purchasing Debt Affiliates in the aggregate would own in excess of 10% of all Commitments then outstanding. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Purchasing Debt Affiliate shall have any right to (A) attend (including by telephone) any meeting or discussions (or portion thereof)
among the Agent or any Lender to which representatives of the Loan Parties are not invited, and (B) receive any information or material prepared by the Agent or any Lender or any communication by or among the Agent and/or one or more Lenders,
except to the extent such information or materials have been made available to any Loan Party or its representatives (and in any case, other than the right to receive notices of prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its
Commitments and Loans required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Article II), or (C) make or bring (or participate in, other than as a passive participant in or recipient of its pro rata benefits of) any claim, in its capacity
as a Lender, against the Agent or any other Lender with respect to any duties or obligations or alleged duties or obligations of such Agent or any other such Lender under the Loan Documents. 

(g) Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.04 or the definitions of “Required Lenders” or “Super Majority
Lenders” to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders, the Super Majority Lenders or any other requisite Class vote required by this Agreement have (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment,
modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (ii) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (iii) directed or
required the Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, all Commitments held by any Purchasing Debt Affiliate shall be deemed to be not outstanding for all purposes of
calculating whether the Required Lenders, the Super Majority Lenders (or requisite vote of any Class of Lenders) have taken any actions. 
 SECTION 9.05 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection
with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any
Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Agent, an Issuing Bank, a Swingline Lender or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect
representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is
outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall
survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this
Agreement or any provision hereof.

 SECTION 9.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed
in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any
separate letter agreement with respect to fees payable to the Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to
the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Agent and when the Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together,
bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this
Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 9.07 Severability. To the extent permitted by law, any provision of any Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction
shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 9.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, each Applicable Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by 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 obligations at any time owing by such Applicable Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower within the applicable Borrower Group or any Applicable
Guarantor of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations with respect to such Borrower Group against any of and all the Secured Obligations held by such Applicable Lender with respect to such Borrower Group, irrespective of whether or not such Applicable
Lender shall have made any demand under the Loan Documents and although such obligations may be unmatured. The Applicable Lender shall notify the Borrower Agent and the Agent of such set-off or application,
provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such set-off or application under this Section. The rights of each Applicable Lender
under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Applicable Lender may have. 

NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, AT ANY TIME THAT ANY OF THE SECURED OBLIGATIONS SHALL BE SECURED BY REAL PROPERTY LOCATED IN CALIFORNIA, NO LENDER
SHALL EXERCISE A RIGHT OF SETOFF, LENDER’S LIEN OR COUNTERCLAIM OR TAKE ANY COURT OR ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION OR INSTITUTE ANY PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY LOAN DOCUMENT UNLESS IT IS TAKEN WITH THE CONSENT OF THE
LENDERS REQUIRED BY SECTION 9.02 OF THIS AGREEMENT, IF SUCH SETOFF OR ACTION OR PROCEEDING WOULD OR MIGHT (PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 580a, 580b, 580d AND 726 OF THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE OR SECTION 2924 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE, IF
APPLICABLE, OR OTHERWISE) AFFECT OR IMPAIR THE VALIDITY, PRIORITY, OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THE LIENS GRANTED TO AGENT PURSUANT TO THE COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS OR THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, AND ANY ATTEMPTED EXERCISE BY ANY LENDER OR
ANY SUCH RIGHT WITHOUT OBTAINING SUCH CONSENT OF THE PARTIES AS REQUIRED ABOVE, SHALL BE NULL AND VOID. THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL BE SOLELY FOR THE BENEFIT OF EACH OF THE LENDERS.

 - 155 -









 
examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental bank regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority), to the extent practicable and not prohibited by applicable
law, to inform the Company promptly thereof prior to disclosure), (b) upon the request or demand of any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Subject Person or any of its Affiliates (in which case such Subject Person agrees (except
with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental bank regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority) to the extent practicable and not prohibited by applicable law, to inform the
Company promptly thereof prior to disclosure), (c) to the extent that such information becomes publicly available other than by reason of improper disclosure by a Subject Person or any of its Affiliates or any Related Parties thereto in
violation of this Agreement or any other confidentiality obligations owing to the Company or its Related Parties, (d) to the extent that such information is received by a Subject Person from a third party that is not, to such Subject
Person’s knowledge, subject to contractual or fiduciary confidentiality obligations owing to the Company or any of its Related Parties, (e) to the extent that such information is independently developed by such Subject Person, (f) to
the Subject Persons’ Affiliates and to its and their respective employees, legal counsel, independent auditors, professionals and other experts or agents who need to know such information in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan
Documents and the Transactions (including in connection with protecting or enforcing the Subject Persons’ rights with respect to the Loan Documents) and who are informed of the confidential nature of such information and are or have been
advised of their obligation to keep information of this type confidential, (g) to potential or prospective Lenders, Participants or Assignees and to any direct or indirect, actual or prospective, contractual counterparty to any Swap Agreement
relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case who are instructed that they shall be bound by the terms of this paragraph (or language substantially similar to this paragraph), (h) to another Subject Person, (i) if the
Company provides its prior written consent to the proposed disclosure, or (j) for purposes of establishing a “due diligence” defense; provided that the disclosure of any such information to any Lenders, Participants,

confidential basis (on substantially the terms set forth in this paragraph or as is otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Company). For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party
relating to the Loan Parties or their businesses, the Sponsor or the Transactions other than any such information that is available to the Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Loan Party. Any
Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such
Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 
 SECTION 9.13 Several Obligations;
Nonreliance; Violation of Law. The respective obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and the failure of any Lender to make any Loan or perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any
of its obligations hereunder. Each Lender hereby represents that it is not relying on or looking to any Margin Stock for the repayment of the Borrowings provided for herein and acknowledges that the Collateral shall not include any Margin Stock.
Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, neither the Issuing Banks nor any Lender shall be obligated to extend credit to any Borrower in violation of any Requirement of Law.

in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC, the PPSA, or any other applicable law can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the
Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Agent’s instructions. 
 SECTION 9.17 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts
which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or
reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent
lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans
or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at, with respect to a U.S. Revolving Loan, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, or, with respect to a Canadian Revolving
Loan, the Canadian Overnight Rate, in each case, to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. 
 SECTION
9.18 Cumulative Effect; Conflict of Terms; Entire Agreement; Credit Inquiries; No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. Each Loan Party hereby agrees and confirms that, notwithstanding the amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit
Agreement pursuant to this Agreement: 
 (a) The provisions of the Loan Documents are cumulative. The parties
acknowledge that the Loan Documents may use several limitations, tests or measurements to regulate similar matters, and they agree that these are cumulative and that each must be performed as provided. Except as otherwise provided in another Loan
Document (by specific reference to the applicable provision of this Agreement), if any provision contained herein is in direct conflict with any provision in another Loan Document (other than the Intercreditor Agreement with respect to U.S.
Collateral), the provision herein shall govern and control. 
 (b) Time is of the essence of the Loan Documents.
The Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof, and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. 

(c) Each Loan Party hereby authorizes the Agent and the Lenders (but they shall have no obligation) to respond to usual
and customary credit inquiries from third parties concerning any Loan Party or Subsidiary.

 (d) In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated by any
Loan Document, the Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (a)(i) this credit facility and any related arranging or other services by the Agent, any Lender, any of their Affiliates or any arranger are arm’s-length commercial transactions
between the Loan Parties and such Person; (ii) the Loan Parties have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they have deemed appropriate; and (iii) the Loan Parties are capable of evaluating and
understanding, and do understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; (b) each of the Agent, the Lenders, the Swingline Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger is and has been
acting solely as a principal in connection with this credit facility, is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Loan Parties, any of their Affiliates or any other Person, and has no obligation with respect to the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents except as expressly set forth therein; and (c) the Agent, Lenders, the Swingline Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ
from those of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates, and have no obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Loan Parties or their Affiliates. 
 SECTION 9.19 Confirmation, Ratification and Affirmation by Loan Parties. Each Loan Party hereby agrees and confirms that, notwithstanding the amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit
Agreement pursuant to this Agreement: 
 (a) The obligations of each Loan Guarantor contained in the Loan
Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby confirmed, renewed, affirmed and continued by this Agreement. 
 (b) All rights, benefits, interests, duties, liabilities and obligations of the parties to the Collateral Documents and the agreements, documents and instruments executed and delivered in connection
therewith are hereby confirmed, renewed, affirmed and continued hereby. Without limitation of the foregoing, all security interests, pledges, assignments and other Liens previously granted by any Guarantor, as a grantor, pursuant to the Collateral
Documents are hereby confirmed, renewed, affirmed and continued, and all such security interests, pledges, assignments and other Liens shall remain in full force and effect as security for all Secured Obligations with no change in the priority
applicable thereto, in each case, subject only to Liens permitted under the Loan Documents, to the extent provided therein. 
 (c) This affirmation under this Section 9.19 does not extinguish the indebtedness or liabilities outstanding in connection with the Existing Credit Agreement, the Loan Guaranty or the
Collateral Documents, nor does it constitute a novation with respect thereto; rather, such indebtedness and liabilities have been redenominated, as set forth herein. 

(d) Each reference in the Loan Guaranty and each Collateral Document to the “Credit Agreement” shall mean and be
a reference to this Agreement, and each reference to any other term defined in the Existing Credit Agreement shall be a reference to such term as amended by the execution and delivery of this Agreement. 

(e) Each Loan Guarantor acknowledges and stipulates that the Loan Guaranty, the Collateral Documents and each other Loan
Document (including, without limitation, in each reference herein to the Loan Documents), each Banking Services agreement and each Swap Agreement in respect of Secured Swap Obligations executed by such Loan Guarantor are legal, valid and binding
obligations of such Loan Guarantor that are enforceable against such Loan Guarantor in accordance with the terms thereof, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, moratorium, or other laws
affecting 

  
 - 158 -









 
creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity, as set forth in such Loan Documents, and the security interests and Liens granted under Collateral Documents and each other
Loan Document by such Loan Guarantor in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Secured Parties, are and continue to be, duly perfected, security interests and Liens (having the Lien priority set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement
with respect to the U.S. Collateral), in each case, to the full extent provided by the terms of the Collateral Documents and each other Loan Document and subject only to Liens permitted under the Loan Documents, to the extent provided therein.

 SECTION 9.20 INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. REFERENCE IS MADE TO THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. EACH LENDER HEREUNDER
(A) CONSENTS TO THE SUBORDINATION OF LIENS PROVIDED FOR IN THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT TO U.S. COLLATERAL THAT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE ABL FIRST LIEN COLLATERAL, (B) AGREES THAT IT WILL BE BOUND BY AND WILL TAKE NO ACTIONS
CONTRARY TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT AND (C) AUTHORIZES AND INSTRUCTS THE AGENT TO ENTER INTO THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT AS ABL AGENT AND ON BEHALF OF SUCH LENDER. THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS ARE INTENDED AS AN INDUCEMENT TO
THE LENDERS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT TO EXTEND CREDIT TO BORROWERS AND SUCH LENDERS ARE INTENDED THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES OF SUCH PROVISIONS AND THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. 

SECTION 9.21 Judgment Currency. If, for the purpose of obtaining a judgment in any court or obtaining an order enforcing a
judgment, it becomes necessary to convert any amount due under this Agreement in Dollars or in any other currency (hereinafter in this Section 9.21 called the “first currency”) into any other currency (hereinafter in this
Section 9.21 called the “second currency”), then the conversion shall be made at the prevailing Exchange Rate for buying the first currency with the second currency at the Agent’s close of business on the Business Day next
preceding the day on which the judgment is given or (as the case may be) the order is made. Any payment made by a Borrower within a Borrower Group to the Agent, any Applicable Lender, any Applicable Issuing Bank or any Applicable Swingline Lender
pursuant to this Agreement in the second currency shall constitute a discharge of the obligations of the Borrowers within such Borrower Group only to the extent of the amount of the first currency which the Agent, such Applicable Lender, such
Applicable Issuing Bank or such Applicable Swingline Lender is able, on the date of the receipt by it of such payment in any second currency, to purchase, in accordance with the Agent, such Applicable Lender, such Applicable Issuing Bank or such
Applicable Swingline Lender’s normal banking procedures, with the amount of such second currency so received. If the amount of the first currency purchased pursuant to the preceding sentence falls short of the amount originally due to the
Agent, such Applicable Lender, such Applicable Issuing Bank or such Swingline Lender in the first currency under this Agreement, the Borrowers within such Borrower Group agree that they will indemnify the Agent, each Applicable Lender, each
Applicable Issuing Bank and each Applicable Swingline Lender against and hold the Agent, each Applicable Lender, each Applicable Issuing Bank and each Applicable Swingline Lender harmless from any shortfall so arising. This indemnity shall
constitute an obligation of each such Borrower separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Agreement, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding
any judgment or order for a liquidated sum or sums in respect of amounts due to the Agent, any Applicable Lender, any Applicable Issuing Bank or any Applicable Swingline Lender under any Loan Documents or under any such judgment or order. Any such
shortfall shall be deemed to constitute a loss suffered by the Agent, such Applicable Lender, such Applicable Issuing Bank or such Applicable Swingline Lender. If the amount of the first currency exceeds the amount originally due to the Agent, any
Applicable Lender, any Applicable Issuing Bank or any Applicable Swingline Lender in the first currency under this Agreement, the Agent, such Applicable Lender, such Applicable Issuing Bank or such Applicable Swingline Lender shall promptly remit
such excess to the Borrowers within the applicable Borrower Group. The covenants contained in this Section 9.21 shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and termination of the Commitments under this Agreement. 

  
 - 159 -









 SECTION 9.22 Canadian Anti-Money Laundering Legislation. If the Agent has ascertained
the identity of any Canadian Loan Party or any authorized signatories of any Canadian Loan Party for the purposes of the Proceeds of Crime Act and other applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist financing, economic or trade sanctions and
“know your client” policies, regulations, laws or rules (the Proceeds of Crime Act and such other applicable policies, regulations, laws or rules, collectively, including any guidelines or orders thereunder, “AML
Legislation”), then the Agent shall be deemed to have done so as an agent for each Canadian Lender, and this Agreement shall constitute a “written agreement” in such regard between each Canadian Lender and the Agent within the
meaning of the applicable AML Legislation; and shall provide to each Canadian Lender copies of all information obtained in such regard without any representation or warranty as to its accuracy or completeness. 

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence and except as may otherwise be agreed in writing, each of the Canadian Lenders agrees that Agent has no obligation
to ascertain the identity of the Canadian Loan Parties or any authorized signatories of the Canadian Loan Parties on behalf of any Canadian Lender, or to confirm the completeness or accuracy of any information it obtains from any Canadian Loan Party
or any such authorized signatory in doing so. 
 ARTICLE X. 

LOAN GUARANTY 
 SECTION 10.01 Guaranty. Each Canadian Obligations Guarantor hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, and absolutely and
unconditionally guarantees to the Agent, the Canadian Lenders and the other applicable Secured Parties the prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the Canadian Obligations
(the “Canadian Guaranteed Obligations”) and each U.S. Guarantor hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Agent,

bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal. 
 SECTION 10.02 Guaranty of Payment. This Loan
Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Each Applicable Guarantor waives any right to require the Agent, any Applicable Issuing Bank, any Applicable Swingline Lender or any Applicable Lender to sue any Borrower, any Applicable
Guarantor, any other guarantor, or any other Person obligated for all or any part of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations (with respect to any Applicable Guaranteed Obligations, each an “Applicable Obligated Party”), or otherwise
to enforce its payment against any collateral securing all or any part of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations and waives the benefits of division and discussion.

 SECTION 10.03 No Discharge or Diminishment of Loan Guaranty. (a) Except as
otherwise provided for herein, the obligations of each Applicable Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than as expressly provided in
Section 10.11), including: (i) any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration, or compromise of any of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any
change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower within the applicable Borrower Group or any other guarantor of or other Person liable for any of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy,
arrangement, winding up reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Applicable Obligated Party, or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Applicable Obligated Party; or (iv) the existence of any
claim, setoff or other rights which any Applicable Guarantor may have at any time against any Applicable Obligated Party, the Agent, any Applicable Issuing Bank, any Applicable Swingline Lender, any Applicable Lender, or any other Person, whether in
connection herewith or in any unrelated transactions. 
 (b) The obligations of each Applicable Guarantor hereunder are not
subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise, or any provision of applicable law or
Regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any Applicable Obligated Party, of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof. 
 (c) Further, the obligations of any Applicable Guarantor hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of the Agent, any Applicable Issuing Bank, any Applicable
Swingline Lender or any Applicable Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any part of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or supplement to any provision of any
agreement relating to the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection, or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for the obligations of each Borrower within the applicable
Borrower Group for all or any part of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations or any obligations of any other guarantor of or other Person liable for any of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any action or failure to act by the Agent,
any Applicable Issuing Bank, any Applicable Swingline Lender or any Applicable Lender with respect to any collateral securing any part of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the
payment or performance of any of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Applicable Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a
discharge of any Applicable Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than as expressly provided in Section 10.11). 
 SECTION 10.04 Defenses Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Applicable Guarantor hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Borrower within
the applicable Borrower Group or any Applicable Guarantor or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Borrower within the applicable
Borrower Group or any Applicable Guarantor, other than the termination of an Applicable Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Section 10.11. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Applicable
Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any
Applicable Obligated Party, or any other Person. The Agent may, at its election, foreclose on any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise act
or fail to act with respect to any collateral securing all or a part of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations, compromise or adjust any part of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Applicable Obligated Party
or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any Applicable Obligated Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of such Applicable Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty except to the extent the Applicable
Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly paid in cash. 

  
 - 161 -









 
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Applicable Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to applicable law,
to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Applicable Guarantor against any Applicable Obligated Party or any security. 
 SECTION 10.05 Rights of Subrogation. No Applicable Guarantor will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification
that it has against any Applicable Obligated Party, or any collateral, until the Loan Parties, the Canadian Obligations Guarantors and the U.S. Guarantors have fully performed all their obligations to the Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline
Lenders and the Lenders, including without limitation payment in full of all of the Obligations and termination of the Commitments. 
 SECTION 10.06 Reinstatement; Stay of Acceleration. If at any time any payment of any portion of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy, arrangement or reorganization of any Borrower within the applicable Borrower Group or otherwise, each Applicable Guarantor’s obligations under this Loan Guaranty with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such
time as though the payment had not been made. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, arrangement or reorganization of any Borrower within the applicable
Borrower Group, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the Applicable Guarantors forthwith on demand by the Agent, the
Applicable Lender or the other applicable Secured Party. 
 SECTION 10.07 Information. Each Applicable Guarantor assumes
all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of each Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the
risks that each Applicable Guarantor assumes and incurs under this Loan Guaranty, and agrees that none of the Agent, any Applicable Issuing Bank, any Applicable Swingline Lender or any Applicable Lender shall have any duty to advise any Applicable
Guarantor of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks. 
 SECTION 10.08 Maximum Liability. The
provisions of this Loan Guaranty are severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any state, Canadian federal or provincial corporate law, or any state, provincial, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, arrangement, reorganization or
other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Applicable Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such
Applicable Guarantor’s liability under this Loan Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Loan Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Applicable Guarantors or the
applicable Secured Parties, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant Applicable Guarantor’s
“Maximum Liability”). This Section 10.08 with respect to the Maximum Liability of each Applicable Guarantor is intended solely to preserve the rights of the applicable Secured Parties to the maximum extent not subject to
avoidance under applicable law, and no Applicable Guarantor nor any other Person or entity shall have any right or claim under this Section with respect to such Maximum Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any
Applicable Guarantor hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each Applicable Guarantor agrees that the Applicable Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum Liability of each Applicable
Guarantor without impairing this Loan Guaranty or affecting the rights and remedies of the applicable Secured Parties hereunder, provided that nothing in this sentence shall be construed to 

  
 - 162 -









 
increase any Applicable Guarantor’s obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Liability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement (including any provisions of this
Article X to the contrary) shall limit the liability of the Borrowers within each Borrower Group in respect of all of the Obligations of such Borrowers under the Loan Documents. 

SECTION 10.09 Contribution. 
 (a) In the event any Canadian Obligations Guarantor (a “Canadian Obligations Paying Guarantor”) shall make any payment or payments under this Loan Guaranty in respect of the Canadian
Obligations or shall suffer any loss as a result of any realization upon any collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this Loan Guaranty, each other Canadian Obligations Guarantor (each a “Canadian Obligations Non-Paying Guarantor”) shall contribute to such Canadian Obligations Paying Guarantor an amount equal to such Canadian Obligations Non-Paying Guarantor’s
“Canadian Obligations Guarantor Percentage” of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such Canadian Obligations Paying Guarantor. For purposes of this Article X, each Canadian Obligations Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Canadian Obligations Guarantor Percentage” with respect to any such payment or loss by a Canadian Obligations Paying Guarantor shall be determined as of the date on
which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (i) such Canadian Obligations Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive,
or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Canadian Obligations Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such
Canadian Obligations Non-Paying Guarantor from a Canadian Borrower after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (ii) the aggregate Maximum Liability of all Canadian
Obligations Guarantors hereunder (including such Canadian Obligations Paying Guarantor) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Liability has
not been determined for any Canadian Obligations Guarantor, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Canadian Obligations Guarantors from a Canadian Borrower after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means).
Nothing in this provision shall affect any Canadian Obligations Guarantor’s several liability for the entire amount of the Canadian Guaranteed Obligations (up to such Canadian Obligations Guarantor’s Maximum Liability). Each of the
Canadian Obligations Guarantors covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this Loan Guaranty from a Canadian Obligations Non-Paying Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in
right of payment to the termination of a Canadian Obligations Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Section 10.11. This provision is for the benefit of all of the Agent, the Canadian Issuing Banks, the Canadian
Swingline Lenders, the Canadian Lenders, the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof. 
 (b) In the event any U.S. Guarantor (a “U.S. Paying Guarantor”) shall make any payment or payments under this Loan Guaranty in respect of the U.S. Obligations or shall suffer any loss as a
result of any realization upon any collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this Loan Guaranty, each other U.S. Guarantor (each a “U.S. Non-Paying Guarantor”) shall contribute to such
U.S. Paying Guarantor an amount equal to such U.S. Non-Paying Guarantor’s “U.S. Guarantor Percentage” of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such U.S. Paying Guarantor. For
purposes of this Article X, each U.S. Non-Paying Guarantor’s “U.S. Guarantor Percentage” with respect to any such payment or loss by a U.S. Paying Guarantor shall be determined as of the date on
which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (i) such U.S. Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation
to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such U.S. Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such U.S. Non-Paying Guarantor from any U.S. Borrower after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (ii) the aggregate Maximum Liability of all U.S. Guarantors hereunder (including such
U.S. Paying Guarantor) as of such date (without giving 

  
 - 163 -









 
effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Liability has not been determined for any U.S. Guarantor, the aggregate amount
of all monies received by such U.S. Guarantors from any U.S. Borrower after the date hereof (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this provision shall affect any U.S. Guarantor’s several liability for the entire
amount of the U.S. Guaranteed Obligations (up to such U.S. Guarantor’s Maximum Liability). Each of the U.S. Guarantors covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this Loan Guaranty from a U.S. Non-Paying Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the termination of a U.S. Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Section 10.11. This provision is for the
benefit of all of the Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders, the Lenders, the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof. 

SECTION 10.10 Liability Cumulative. The liability of each applicable Loan Party as an Applicable Guarantor under this
Article X is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each such Loan Party to the Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Loan
Party is a party or in respect of any obligations or liabilities of the other Loan Parties, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

 SECTION 10.11 Termination; Release of Guarantors and Borrowers. The Loan Guaranty of all Applicable Guarantors shall
terminate on the Termination Date. Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.02(b) to the contrary (i) an Applicable Guarantor or a Borrower that is a Subsidiary shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and its
Loan Guaranty and obligations as a Borrower shall be automatically released upon the consummation of any transaction permitted hereunder as a result of which such Guarantor or Borrower ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Company and (ii) so long
as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (A) if an Applicable Guarantor or Borrower is or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary, then such Applicable Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations hereunder and its Loan
Guaranty and obligations as a Borrower shall be automatically released upon notification thereof from the Borrower Agent to the Agent. In connection with any such release, the Agent shall execute and deliver to any Applicable Guarantor or Borrower
that is a Subsidiary, at such Applicable Guarantor’s or Borrower’s expense, all documents that such Applicable Guarantor or Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents
pursuant to the preceding sentence of this Section 10.11 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Agent.

to a certain Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of November         , 2012 (as further amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit
Agreement”) with the financial institutions party thereto from time to time (the “Lenders”), the Agent and the other parties named therein. 
 Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have heretofore made and may from time to time hereafter make loans and other extensions of credit to the Borrowers, which loans and extensions
of credit directly and indirectly benefit all of the Loan Parties. As security for the repayment by the Borrowers of such loans and other extensions of credit, each Loan Party has granted or will hereafter grant to the Agent, for its benefit and the
benefit of the Lenders, a security interest, and hypothec on, in substantially all of such Loan Party’s personal property, including all of such Loan Party’s Inventory (as hereinafter defined) and all proceeds thereof. 

Pursuant to the terms of [Name and date of Trade Creditor’s Security Agreement] (as amended to date and as the same may be further
amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Trade Security Agreement”), each Loan Party has granted or may hereafter grant to the Trade Creditor a security interest in, and hypothec on, all Inventory (as
hereinafter defined) consisting of tires sold to such Loan Party by the Trade Creditor and bearing any brand name or trademark used by the Trade Creditor now or in the future (such Inventory is referred to herein as the “Branded

2. Consents to Liens. The Trade Creditor’s Lien on the Branded Inventory as security for the Trade Obligations is a
permitted Lien under the Credit Agreement; the existence of such Lien does not constitute an Event of Default under any of the Senior Creditor Documents. The Trade Creditor shall not request, accept or receive any Lien or other interest in or on any
of the Collateral except for Branded Inventory and to the extent that the Trade Creditor currently has a Lien on other Collateral, the Trade Creditor is hereby deemed to have released, discharged, and terminated such Lien and agrees to execute any
and all documentation requested by the Agent to evidence such release, discharge, and termination. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Trade Creditor acknowledges and agrees that it shall not have a Lien on any proceeds of the
Branded Inventory. The Trade Creditor hereby consents to each Loan Party’s grant of Liens on all of the Collateral to the Agent, for its benefit, the Lenders and their affiliates, as security for the Senior Creditor Obligations and agrees that
the existence of any such Liens shall not constitute an Event of Default under any of the Trade Creditor Documents. 
 3.
Priority of Liens. 
 (a) The Trade Creditor and the Agent agree at all times, whether before, after or during the
pendency of any Bankruptcy Case and notwithstanding the priorities which would ordinarily result from the order of granting or perfection or opposability of any Liens, the order of filing, registering, publishing, or recording of any financing
statements or similar registrations, or the priorities that would otherwise apply under applicable law, that (i) the Agent’s Liens on the Collateral constitute first priority Liens on such property to secure the Senior Obligations and
shall be superior to any Lien or other interest of the Trade Creditor in or on the same property arising pursuant to the Trade Creditor Documents, by operation of law or otherwise; and (ii) any Lien or other interest at any time acquired by the
Trade Creditor in or on any of the Collateral shall be subordinate to the Liens of the Agent therein or thereon, and the Trade Creditor hereby cedes priority and preference of rank of its Liens to the Agent’s Liens on such Collateral.

 (b) For purposes of the foregoing priorities, any claim of a right of setoff or compensation by the Trade Creditor shall be
treated in all respects as a Lien and no claim to right of setoff or compensation by the Trade Creditor shall be asserted to defeat or diminish the rights or priorities provided for herein in favor of the Agent. 

(c) If for any reason any Lien granted or conveyed by a Loan Party to the Agent pursuant to the Senior Creditor Documents or otherwise is
set aside or otherwise declared ineffective, in whole or in part, by any court of competent jurisdiction, and if as a consequence thereof the Trade Creditor becomes entitled to receive any proceeds from any of the Collateral or on account of the
Trade Creditor’s Lien on any of the Collateral, then any such payments or proceeds received by the Trade Creditor shall be used by it to purchase a junior participation in the Senior Obligations pursuant to a junior participation agreement in
form and content satisfactory to the Agent but in all events providing that the Lenders’ retained interest in the Senior Obligations (including both principal and interest) and all 







 
costs and expenses incurred by the Agent and the Lenders (including attorneys’ fees) in attempting to collect the Senior Obligations or to realize upon any of the Collateral shall be paid in
full before the Trade Creditor shall be entitled to any payment on account of its junior participation and the Trade Creditor’s junior participation will be without recourse of any kind to the Agent or any Lender except for the Agent’s or
any Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct after the date of the Trade Creditor’s purchase of such junior participation. 
 (d) In no event shall the Trade Creditor institute, or join as a party in the institution of, or directly or indirectly assist in the prosecution of, any action, suit or proceeding seeking a determination
that the Lien of the Agent on any of the Collateral is invalid, unperfected, unopposable, or avoidable, or is or should be subordinated to the interests of any other Person. In no event shall the Agent or any Lender institute, or join as a party in
the institution of, or directly or indirectly assist in the prosecution of, any action, suit or proceeding seeking a determination that the Lien of the Trade Creditor on any of the Collateral is invalid, unperfected, unopposable, or avoidable, or is
or should be subordinated to the interests of any Person other than the Agent under the terms hereof. 
 (e) If at any time the
Agent shall subordinate, in whole or in part, its Lien upon any of the Collateral to or in favor of any other Person, the priority of the Agent’s Lien on the Collateral with respect to the Lien of the Trade Creditor shall not be affected
thereby and the Agent’s Lien shall continue to be superior to the Trade Creditor’s Lien on the Collateral as provided in paragraph 3(a) of this Agreement. 
 4. Standby as to Certain Actions. The Trade Creditor agrees that it will not ask for, demand, sue for, collect, take, receive, or repossess any of the Branded Inventory or other Collateral
from any Loan Party by setoff, compensation, or in any other manner, or otherwise take any Enforcement Action with respect to the whole or any part of the Collateral, whether by judicial action or under power of sale, by enforcement of hypothecary
recourse, by self-help repossession or otherwise, unless and until all of the Senior Obligations have been paid finally and in full and the Lenders’ commitments to extend further credit to or for the benefit of the Borrowers have been
terminated. If the Trade Creditor, in violation of the terms hereof, initiates any Enforcement Action against a Loan Party or any of the Collateral, the Agent may interpose this Agreement and demand specific performance of the terms hereof.

 5. Agent’s Rights Exclusive. The Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, shall have the exclusive right to
collect, foreclose upon, enforce a hypothecary recourse in respect of, sell, transfer, liquidate or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral as provided in the Senior Creditor Documents or by applicable law, in the manner deemed appropriate
by the Agent and the Lenders, without regard to any Liens of the Trade Creditor thereon, and the Trade Creditor will not hinder the Agent’s actions in enforcing its remedies or taking any Enforcement Action with respect to the Collateral;
provided, however, that after payment in full of all of the Senior Obligations and the termination of the Lenders’ commitments to extend further credit to or for the benefit of the Borrowers, the Agent shall deliver to the Trade Creditor
(unless otherwise restricted by applicable law or by any order issued by a court in the proper exercise of its jurisdiction and subject in all events to the Agent’s receipt of an indemnification from the Trade Creditor of all liabilities
arising from such delivery) for application to the Trade Obligations any proceeds remaining from the sale or other disposition of the Collateral. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Trade Creditor waives any requirement on the
part of the Agent or any Lender to conduct any sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral in a commercially reasonable manner, and the Agent shall be fully authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Collateral in the manner
deemed appropriate by the Agent and the Lenders, including by the exercise of any right the Agent may have to accept any or all of the Collateral in total or partial satisfaction of any of the Senior Obligations in accordance with the UCC, PPSA, or
otherwise. 







 6. Receipt of Monies by Trade Creditor. The Trade Creditor agrees that should
it receive any money from the sale, liquidation, casualty or other disposition of, or as a result of its Lien, on any of the Collateral, it will (unless otherwise restricted by law) hold the same in trust and as mandatary for the Agent and the
Lenders and promptly pay over the same to the Agent for application to the Senior Obligations (unless otherwise restricted by law or by any order issued by a court in the proper exercise of its jurisdiction). 

7. Agreement on Certain Bankruptcy Matters. 
 (a) Without impairing, abrogating or in any way affecting the Agent’s or any Lender’s rights hereunder, including the relative priorities established by paragraph 3 hereof, Agent may during any
Bankruptcy Case give or withhold its consent to any Loan Party’s or any bankruptcy trustee’s, receiver’s, interim receiver’s, or similar custodian’s use or consumption of any Collateral (including cash proceeds of any
Accounts or other Collateral), or may provide financing or otherwise extend credit to any Loan Party or any bankruptcy trustee, receiver, interim receiver, or similar custodian, secured by a first priority Lien upon any or all of the Collateral,
whether acquired by such Loan Party prior to or after the commencement of such Bankruptcy Case, and by its execution of this Agreement, the Trade Creditor shall be deemed to have consented to such Borrower’s or any bankruptcy trustee’s,
receiver’s, interim receiver’s, or similar custodian’s use of any such Collateral if and to the extent consented to by the Agent and the applicable Lenders and to any financing proposed to be provided by the Lenders (or any of them)
to a Loan Party or any bankruptcy trustee, receiver, interim receiver, or similar custodian that is secured by a Lien upon any or all of the Collateral during the pendency of any such Bankruptcy Case. Any Lien at any time acquired by the Trade
Creditor on any of the Collateral, whether such Collateral is created, acquired or arises at any time prior to or after any such Bankruptcy Case, shall be subject to all of the terms of this Agreement and shall be subordinate in priority to all
Liens at any time granted to or obtained by the Agent with respect to any such Collateral, including Liens granted to or conferred upon the Agent to secure financing in any Bankruptcy Case. 

(b) If the applicable Lenders consent to the sale of any of the Collateral during any Bankruptcy Case (whether such sale is to be made
pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 363, pursuant to a plan of reorganization or pursuant to or as permitted by any other Insolvency Law or otherwise), then the Trade Creditor shall be deemed to have consented to any such sale and shall, if requested to do
so by the Agent in connection with any such sale, promptly execute and deliver to the Agent a release, discharge, and termination of the Trade Creditor’s Liens with respect to the Collateral to be sold. 

(c) If the Agent or any Lender shall be required in any Bankruptcy Case to return, refund or repay to a Loan Party or any trustee,
receiver, interim receiver, monitor, or other similar custodian or committee appointed in the Bankruptcy Case any payment or proceeds of any Collateral in connection with any action, suit or proceeding alleging that the Agent or such Lender’s
receipt of such payments or proceeds was a transfer voidable under applicable law (including an Insolvency Law), then the Agent or such Lender shall not be deemed ever to have received such proceeds for purposes of this Agreement in determining
whether and when all of the Senior Obligations have been paid in full. 
 8. Agreement to Release Liens. The Trade
Creditor agrees that it will (if requested to do so by the Agent after and during the continuance of an Event of Default under the Senior Creditor Documents) release, discharge, and terminate its Liens on any Collateral in connection with and in
order to facilitate any orderly liquidation sale of such Collateral by any Loan Party or any bankruptcy trustee, receiver, interim receiver, monitor, or other similar custodian for such Loan Party, and promptly upon the request of the Agent, it will
execute and deliver such documents, instruments and agreements as are necessary to effectuate such release, discharge, and termination and to evidence such release, discharge, and termination in the appropriate public records, provided that the net
proceeds from any such sale or other disposition are to be applied in reduction of the Senior Obligations (with any excess after the Senior Obligations have been paid in full to be turned over to the Trade Creditor, to the extent not otherwise
prohibited by applicable law). 







 9. Waiver of Marshalling; Application of Payments and Proceeds. The Trade
Creditor hereby waives any right to require the Agent to marshall any security or Collateral or otherwise to compel the Agent or any Lender to seek recourse against or satisfaction of the indebtedness to it from one source before seeking recourse or
satisfaction from another source. The Agent shall be authorized to apply any and all payments, collections and proceeds of Collateral received by it to such portion of the Senior Obligations as Agent may lawfully elect consistent with the provisions
of the Senior Creditor Documents. 
 10. Provisions Concerning Insurance. Proceeds of the Collateral include
insurance proceeds, and therefore the priorities set forth in paragraph 3 hereof govern the ultimate disposition of casualty insurance proceeds. The Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right, as against the Trade Creditor, to adjust settlement
of insurance claims in the event of any covered loss, theft or destruction of the Collateral. All proceeds of such insurance shall inure to the Agent to the extent of the Senior Obligations, and the Trade Creditor shall cooperate (if necessary), at
the Agent’s expense, in a reasonable manner in effecting the payment of insurance proceeds to the Agent. The Agent shall have the right (as between the parties hereto) to determine whether such proceeds will be applied to its claim or used to
rebuild, replace or repair the affected Collateral. If such proceeds are applied to Senior Obligations, any proceeds remaining after payment in full of the Senior Obligations and expenses of collection, provided that Lenders’ commitments to
extend further credit to or for the benefit of the Borrowers shall have been terminated, shall be promptly remitted to the Trade Creditor for application to the Trade Obligations or to the Loan Parties, as applicable. 

11. Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon a party hereto shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand,
sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested or by telecopier and shall be deemed to have been validly served, given or delivered when delivered against receipt or four (4) Business Days after deposit in the mail, certified,
return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or, in the case of telecopy notice, when received at the office of the noticed party, in each case addressed as follows:

Galleria Parkway, Suite 800
 Atlanta, Georgia 30339

 Telecopier No.: (            )             


 or to such other address as each party may designate for itself by like notice given in accordance with this paragraph.
Any written notice that is not sent in conformity with the provisions hereof shall nevertheless be effective on the date that such notice is actually received by the noticed party. The Trade Creditor








 
hereby agrees that any requirement for the giving of notice by the Agent under the UCC, the PPSA, or otherwise in connection with any exercise by the Agent of any of its and Lenders’ rights
or remedies with respect to the Collateral shall be satisfied by the giving of written notice at least five (5) days prior to the date on which such rights or remedies are to be exercised by the Agent, provided that nothing herein shall be
deemed to require the giving of any such notice when such notice is not required by applicable law. 
 12. No Duties
Imposed Upon Agent or any Lender. The rights granted to the Agent in this Agreement are solely for its protection and nothing herein contained imposes on the Agent or any Lender any duties with respect to any of the Collateral. None of the
Agent or any Lender has any duty to preserve rights against prior parties on any instrument or chattel paper received from any Borrower as collateral security for any of the Senior Obligations. 

13. Relationship of Parties. This Agreement is entered into solely for the purposes set forth above, and neither party
assumes any responsibility to the other party to advise such other party of information known to such party regarding the financial condition of any Loan Party or regarding the Collateral, or of any other circumstances bearing upon the risk of
nonpayment of the obligations of such Loan Party, under the Trade Creditor Documents, or the Senior Creditor Documents. Each party shall be responsible for managing its relationship with the Loan Parties and neither party shall be deemed the agent
or mandatary of the other for any purpose. The Trade Creditor, on one hand, and the Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, each may alter, amend, supplement, release, discharge or otherwise modify any terms of the Trade Creditor Documents or of
the Senior Creditor Documents, respectively, without notice to or the consent of the other. 
 14. No Debt
Subordination. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to be or operate as a subordination of any of the Senior Obligations to the Trade Obligations, or vice versa. 

15. Additional Credit Extensions; Amendments to Senior Creditor Documents; Amendments to Trade Creditor Documents. The Trade
Creditor acknowledges, understands and agrees that Lenders may make loans to or for the benefit of the Borrowers from time to time, pursuant to the Senior Creditor Documents or otherwise, and all such loans shall constitute part of the Senior
Obligations and shall be secured by all of the Collateral, and nothing herein shall restrict in any manner or in any way the right of the Borrowers to obtain additional credit from the Lenders or the right of the Lenders to make available such
additional credit to the Borrowers as the Lenders in their sole discretion may elect. The Agent, the Lenders and the Loan Parties may amend, modify, supplement or waive any of the provisions of the Senior Creditor Documents without notice to or the
consent of the Trade Creditor and without in any manner affecting this Agreement or any of the Agent’s or any the Lender’s rights hereunder. Without the prior written consent of the Lenders, neither Trade Creditor nor any of the Loan
Parties may amend or otherwise modify the terms of any Trade Creditor Document in any material respect or in any respect that could reasonably be expected to be adverse to the interests of the Agent and the Lenders. 

16. Indemnity. The Trade Creditor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Agent and each Lender harmless from and
against any loss, damage, cost, claim or expense, including court costs and attorneys’ fees, incurred or sustained by the Agent and such Lender in connection with any remittances of proceeds of any Collateral made pursuant to the terms hereof
from the Agent to Trade Creditor, to the extent that such remittance of proceeds subsequently is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been prohibited by applicable law, avoidable under any Insolvency Law, or in violation of the
rights of any other creditor of any Loan Party when made. The foregoing indemnity shall survive any termination of this Agreement. 







 17. Independent Credit Investigations. None of the parties hereto nor any of
their respective directors, officers, agents, employees, successors or assigns shall be responsible to the others or to any other Person for any Loan Party’s solvency, financial condition or ability to repay any of the Trade Obligations or any
of the Senior Obligations, or for statements of any Loan Party, oral or written, or for the validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any of the Trade Creditor Documents or any of the Senior Creditor Documents, or the validity or priority of any
Liens granted by any Loan Party to either party in connection with any of the Trade Creditor Documents or any of the Senior Creditor Documents. Each party hereto has entered into its agreements with the Loan Parties based upon its own
independent investigation, and makes no warranty or representation to the other party nor does it rely upon any representation of the other party with respect to matters identified or referred to in this paragraph. 

18. No Rights Conferred Upon the Loan Parties. Nothing herein shall be construed to confer any rights upon the Loan Parties.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any party hereto shall enforce its rights or remedies in violation of this Agreement, the Loan Parties shall not be authorized to use such violation as a defense to any right or remedy exercised
by such party, nor assert such violation as a counterclaim or basis of setoff or recoupment against such party, unless the other party hereto consents in writing and itself asserts that the exercise of right or remedy is in violation of this
Agreement. 
 19. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be interpreted, and the rights and obligations of
the parties hereto determined, in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof, other than Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law. 

20. No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to indicate that this Agreement has
been entered into for the benefit of any Person other than the parties hereto. 
 21. Conflict with Documents. The
provisions of this Agreement are intended by the parties to control any conflicting provisions in the Senior Creditor Documents or the Trade Creditor Documents, including any covenants prohibiting further borrowing or encumbrances of Collateral.

 22. Counterparts; Electronic Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts taken together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Any manually executed
signature delivered by a party by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be deemed to be an original signature hereto. 

23. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and
their respective successors and assigns. In no event, however, shall either party hereto transfer or assign any Lien that it may have on any of the Collateral to any Person unless the transferee or assignee thereof shall first agree in writing to be
bound by the terms of this Agreement the same as if an original signatory hereto. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, any Person whose loans or advances to Borrowers (or any of them) hereafter are used to refinance and pay in full
the Senior Obligations shall be deemed for all purposes hereof to be the successor to the Agent, and from and after the date of any such refinancing in satisfaction in full of the Senior Obligations such Person shall be deemed a party hereto in the
place and stead of the Agent as if such Person had been the original signatory hereto, and all loans, advances, liabilities, debit balances, covenants and duties at any time or times owed by the Loan Parties to such successor to the Agent, whether
direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, secured or unsecured, due or to become due, then existing or thereafter arising, including any renewals, extensions, modifications, or replacements of any of the foregoing, shall be deemed for all purposes
hereunder to constitute and be Senior Obligations. 







 24. Further Assurances. Each of the parties hereto agrees to execute such
amendments to financing statements and other documents as may be necessary to reflect of record the existence of this Agreement and the relative priorities established pursuant to paragraph 3 hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Trade Creditor agrees that any UCC-1 or PPSA financing statement or other document filed of record or registered to evidence, perfect, or render opposable the Trade Creditor’s Lien on any of the Branded Inventory shall conspicuously state
that the Lien perfected or rendered opposable thereby is subordinate in priority to all Liens at any time granted to or conferred upon the Agent with respect to the Collateral. 
 25. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this
Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this
Agreement. 
 26. Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement expresses the entire understanding and agreement of
the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings and agreements of the parties regarding the same subject matter. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except by a writing signed by the
parties hereto. 
 27. Jury Trial Waiver. The Trade Creditor and the Agent each hereby waives all rights to a trial by
jury in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement.

 ARTICLE III. 
 REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND 
 COVENANTS OF THE MORTGAGOR

 The Mortgagor agrees, covenants, represents and warrants as follows: 

Section 3.01 Title. 
 (a) The Mortgagor has good and insurable fee simple title to the Land and the Improvements, subject to the Permitted Encumbrances. The Mortgagor has valid leasehold interests in, all of the other
Encumbered Property. This Mortgage is and will remain a valid and enforceable first lien on, and security interest in, the Encumbered Property until payment and performance in full of the Finance Obligations subject to no Liens other than the
exceptions and encumbrances set forth in Exhibit B attached hereto and any Liens permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement (collectively, the “Permitted Encumbrances”). 

(b) Intentionally deleted. 
 (c) The Mortgagor will forever warrant, defend and preserve its title to the Encumbered Property, the rights of the Mortgagee therein under this Mortgage and the validity and priority of the lien of this
Mortgage thereon against the claims of all persons and parties except those having rights under the Permitted Encumbrances to the extent of those rights until payment and performance in full of the Finance Obligations. 

Section 3.02 Finance Documents. 
 (a) This Mortgage is given pursuant to the Indenture and the other Finance Documents. Each and every term and provision of the Indenture and the other Finance Documents (except for the governing law
provisions thereof), including the rights, remedies, obligations, covenants, conditions, agreements, indemnities, representations and warranties of the parties thereto shall be considered as if a part of this Mortgage. 

(b) If any remedy or right of the Mortgagee pursuant hereto is acted upon by the Mortgagee or if any actions or proceedings (including any
bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization proceedings) are commenced in which the Mortgagee is made a party and is obliged to defend or uphold or enforce this Mortgage or the rights of the Mortgagee hereunder or the terms of any Lease, the Mortgagor
will pay all sums, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, actually incurred (not as imposed by statute) by the Mortgagee related to the exercise of any remedy or right of the Mortgagee pursuant hereto or for the expense of any
such action or proceeding together with all statutory or other costs, disbursements and allowances, plus interest thereon accruing from the date such cost is incurred (and payable five (5) business days from the date of written demand for
payment thereof) until such sums are paid at the Default Rate, and such sums and the interest thereon shall, to the extent permissible by law, be a lien on the Encumbered Property prior to any right, title to, interest in or claim upon the
Encumbered Property attaching or accruing subsequent to the recording of this Mortgage and shall be secured by this Mortgage to the extent permitted by applicable law. 
 (c) Any payment of amounts due under this Mortgage not made on or before the due date for such payments shall accrue interest daily without notice from the due date until paid at the Default Rate, and
such interest at the Default Rate shall be immediately due upon demand by the Mortgagee, and shall, to the extent permissible by law, be a lien on the Encumbered Property prior to any right, title to, interest in or claim upon the Encumbered
Property attaching or accruing subsequent to the recording of this Mortgage and shall be secured by this Mortgage to the extent permitted by applicable law.

 Section 3.03 Payment of Taxes, Liens and Charges. 

(a) The Mortgagor will pay and discharge from time to time prior to the time when the same shall become delinquent, and before any
interest or penalty accrues thereon or attaches thereto, all Impositions, imposed upon or assessed against the Encumbered Property or any part thereof or upon the Rents from the Encumbered Property or arising in respect of the occupancy, use or
possession thereof. 
 (b) In the event of the passage of any state, Federal, municipal or other governmental law, order, rule or
regulation subsequent to the date hereof (i) deducting from the value of real property for the purpose of taxation any lien or encumbrance thereon or in any manner changing or modifying the laws now in force governing the taxation of this
Mortgage or debts secured by mortgages or deeds of trust (other than laws governing income, franchise and similar taxes generally) or the manner of collecting taxes thereon and (ii) imposing a tax to be paid by the Mortgagee, either directly or
indirectly, on this Mortgage, or any other Finance Documents or to require an amount of taxes to be withheld or deducted therefrom, the Mortgagor will promptly notify the Mortgagee of such event. In such event the Mortgagor shall (i) agree to
enter into such further instruments as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to obligate the Mortgagor to make any applicable additional payments, and (ii) the Mortgagor shall make all such additional payments. 

(c) Mortgagor shall have the right to contest the amount or validity, in whole or in part, of any Impositions, or to seek a reduction in
the valuation of the Encumbered Property, or any part thereof, as assessed for real estate or personal property tax purposes, by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted in good faith. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, Mortgagor may commence such proceedings, however, only after payment of such Impositions, unless such payment would bar any such proceedings or interfere materially and adversely with the prosecution thereof, in which event
Mortgagor may postpone or defer payment of such Impositions provided it gives Mortgagee timely notice of same. Upon such postponement or deferral, on Mortgagee’s demand, (i) Mortgagor shall provide security, for the duration of such
proceedings (including any appeals), in such form and amount as shall, in Mortgagee’s reasonable judgment, assure the discharge of Mortgagor’s obligations hereunder and of any additional charge, penalty or expense incurred as a result of
such proceedings; and (ii) if the Encumbered Property or any part thereof shall, in Mortgagee’s reasonable judgment, be in imminent danger of being forfeited or lost by reason of such postponement or deferral, Mortgagor shall immediately
pay or cause to be paid the Impositions. 
 (d) If required by the Mortgagee during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
Mortgagor shall pay the Mortgagee monthly, together with and in addition to the payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on any Finance Obligation, an amount determined by the Mortgagee to be necessary to enable the Mortgagee to pay
all Impositions one month before it becomes due. If the total payments made to the Mortgagee pursuant to the preceding sentence are less than the amount required to pay any Imposition one month before it becomes due, the Mortgagor shall pay the
Mortgagee, on demand, the amount necessary to make up such deficiency. If there is an excess of such payments, the excess will reduce subsequent payments required under this Section 3.03. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the
Mortgagee shall not be required to pay interest on any sums held pursuant to this Section 3.03. If an Event of Default has occurred, the Mortgagee may at its option apply any amounts received pursuant to this Section 3.03 to
the payment of the Finance Obligations in such order as the Mortgagee may elect. 
 Section 3.04 Insurance.
The Mortgagor will keep the Encumbered Property insured against such risks in the manner required by the other Finance Documents. 
 Section 3.05 Casualty; Restoration of Casualty Damage. The Mortgagor shall give the Mortgagee prompt written notice of any fire or other casualty to all or any material portion of the
Encumbered Property (a “Casualty”). In the event of a Casualty, the Net Cash Proceeds with respect to any such Casualty shall be paid and applied in accordance with the Finance Documents. 

  
 - 8 -









 Section 3.06 Condemnation/Eminent Domain. The Mortgagor shall notify the
Mortgagee promptly upon obtaining knowledge of any pending or threatened condemnation or taking of all or any material portion of the Encumbered Property (a “Condemnation”). In the event of a Condemnation, all Net Cash Proceeds
shall be paid and applied in accordance with the Finance Documents. 
 Section 3.07 Assignment of Leases and
Rents. 
 (a) The Mortgagor hereby irrevocably, unconditionally and absolutely grants, transfers and assigns to the
Mortgagee all of its right, title and interest in and to all Leases, together with any and all extensions and renewals thereof for purposes of securing and discharging the Finance Obligations. The Mortgagor has not assigned or executed any
assignment of, and will not assign or execute any assignment of, any Lease or its respective Rents to anyone other than to the Mortgagee, other than in connection with the ABL Collateral Documents. 

(b) Following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, without the Mortgagee’s prior written consent, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, the Mortgagor will not (i) enter into, modify in any material respect, amend in any material respect, terminate or consent to the cancellation or surrender of any Lease if such
entrance, modification, amendment, termination or consent would, in the reasonable judgment of the Mortgagee, be adverse in any material respect to the Secured Parties, the value of the Encumbered Property or the liens and security interests created
by this Mortgage or (ii) except for an assignment or subletting which is expressly permitted under the terms of the Lease, consent to an assignment of any tenant’s interest in any Lease or to a subletting thereof covering a material
portion of the Encumbered Property, except, in each case, as may be permitted by this Mortgage or the other Finance Documents. 

(c) The Mortgagor has assigned and transferred to the Mortgagee all of the Mortgagor’s right, title and interest in and to the Rents
now or hereafter arising, it being intended that this assignment establish, subject to Section 3.07(d) below, an absolute transfer and assignment of all Rents and all Leases to the Mortgagee and not merely to grant a security interest
therein. Such assignment to the Mortgagee shall not be construed to bind the Mortgagee to the performance of any of the covenants, conditions or provisions contained in any Lease or otherwise impose any obligation upon the Mortgagee except that the
Mortgagee shall be accountable for any Rents actually received pursuant to the aforesaid assignment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Mortgagor shall have the license and right, subject to automatic revocation as provided in
Section 3.07(d) below, to operate and rent, lease or let all or any portion of the Encumbered Property and to collect all of the Rents. As provided in Section 3.07(d) below, the license granted by this
Section 3.07(c) is subject to automatic revocation and thereafter the Mortgagee may, in the Mortgagor’s name and stead (with or without first taking possession of any of the Encumbered Property personally or by receiver as provided
herein) operate the Encumbered Property and rent, lease or let all or any portion of any of the Encumbered Property to any party or parties at such rental and upon such terms as the Mortgagee shall, in its sole discretion, determine, and may collect
and have the benefit of all of such Rents arising from or accruing at any time thereafter or that may thereafter become due. 

(d) As long as no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, the license granted under Section 3.07(c) above shall be
effective and the Mortgagee shall not exercise any of its rights under Section 3.07(c) above, and the Mortgagor shall receive and collect the Rents accruing under any Lease pursuant to the revocable license granted therein; but upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of 

  
 - 9 -









 
any Event of Default, the license granted under Section 3.07(c) above shall be deemed to be automatically revoked and shall terminate automatically without notice and the Mortgagee
shall be entitled to all of the Rents without the necessity of the Mortgagee’s taking any action whatsoever, and the Rents shall thereupon be deemed to be cash collateral for all purposes, including without limitation for purposes of
Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Mortgagee may receive and collect all Rents and enter upon the Premises and Improvements through its officers, agents, employees or
attorneys for such purpose and for the operation and maintenance thereof. Upon the occurrence and during any continuance of an Event of Default, the Mortgagor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs each tenant, if any, and each successor, if any,
to the interest of any tenant under any Lease, respectively, to rely upon any notice of a claimed Event of Default sent by the Mortgagee to any such tenant or any of such tenant’s successors in interest, and thereafter to pay Rents to the
Mortgagee without any obligation or right to inquire as to whether an Event of Default actually exists and even if notice to the contrary is received from the Mortgagor, who shall have no right or claim against any such tenant or successor in
interest for any such Rents so paid to the Mortgagee. Each tenant or any of such tenant’s successors in interest from whom the Mortgagee or any officer, agent, attorney or employee of the Mortgagee shall have collected any Rents, shall be
authorized to pay Rents to the Mortgagor only after such tenant or any of such tenant’s successors in interest shall have received written notice from the Mortgagee that the Event of Default is no longer continuing, which notice the Mortgagee
shall be obligated to give if the Mortgagee determines in its reasonable discretion that such Event of Default is no longer continuing (or if ordered by a court or arbitrator with jurisdiction), unless and until a further notice of an Event of
Default is given by the Mortgagee to such tenant or any of such tenant’s successors in interest. 
 (e) The Mortgagee will
not become a mortgagee in possession so long as it does not enter and take actual possession of the Encumbered Property. In addition, the Mortgagee shall not be responsible or liable for performing any of the obligations of the landlord under any
Lease, for any waste by any tenants, or others, for any dangerous or defective conditions of any of the Encumbered Property, for negligence in the management, upkeep, repair or control of any of the Encumbered Property or any other act or omission
by any other person, except in the event the Mortgagee takes possession of the Encumbered Property, but only for occurrences or non-occurrences arising or accruing subsequent to such taking of possession of the Encumbered Property. 

(f) The Mortgagor shall furnish to the Mortgagee, within 30 days after a request by the Mortgagee to do so, a written statement containing
the names of all tenants, subtenants and concessionaires of the Premises or Improvements, the terms of any Lease, the space occupied and the rentals or license fees payable thereunder. 

(g) If an Event of Default occurs, and if there is any applicable law requiring the Mortgagee to take actual or constructive possession of
the Premises (or some action equivalent thereto, such as securing the appointment of a receiver) in order for the Mortgagee to “perfect” or “activate” its rights and remedies as set forth herein, the Mortgagor hereby waives the
benefits of any such laws to the maximum extent allowable. 
 Section 3.08 Restrictions on Transfers and
Encumbrances. Except as permitted hereby or by the Finance Documents, the Mortgagor shall not directly or indirectly sell, convey, alienate, mortgage, pledge, encumber or create, consent to or suffer the creation of any lien or charge upon
any interest in or any part of the Encumbered Property. 
 Section 3.09 Security Agreement. This Mortgage is
both a mortgage and grant of real property and a grant of a security interest in personal property, and shall constitute and serve as a “security agreement” within the meaning of the UCC. The Mortgagor hereby grants unto the Mortgagee

supplemental hereto, any security instrument with respect to the Encumbered Property or any instrument of further assurance.

and without expense to the Mortgagee, do, execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further acts, deeds, conveyances, deeds of trust, assignments, notices of assignment, transfers and assurances as the Mortgagee shall from time to time reasonably

interest of the Mortgagor in and to all extensions, improvements, betterments, renewals, substitutes and replacements of, and all additions and appurtenances to, the Encumbered Property hereafter acquired by or released to the Mortgagor or
constructed, assembled or placed by the Mortgagor upon the Premises or the Improvements, and all conversions of the security constituted thereby, immediately upon such acquisition, release, construction, assembling, placement or conversion, as the
case may be, and in each such case without any further mortgage, conveyance, assignment or other act by the Mortgagor, shall become subject to the liens and security interests of this Mortgage as fully and completely and with the same effect as
though now owned by the Mortgagor and specifically described in the grant of the Encumbered Property above, but at any and all times the Mortgagor will execute and deliver to the Mortgagee any and all such further assurances, mortgages, conveyances
or assignments thereof as the Mortgagee may reasonably require for the purpose of expressly and specifically subjecting the same to the liens and security interests of this Mortgage. 

Section 3.13 No Claims Against the Mortgagee. Nothing contained in this Mortgage shall constitute any consent or
request by the Mortgagee, express or implied, for the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Encumbered Property or any part thereof, nor as giving the Mortgagor any right, power
or authority to contract for or permit the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in such fashion as would permit the making of any claim against the Mortgagee in respect thereof. 

ARTICLE IV. 

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 
 Section 4.01 Events of Default. It shall be an Event of Default under this Mortgage if any Event of Default shall exist under any Finance Document. 

Section 4.02 Demand for Payment. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, in addition
to any other rights and remedies the Mortgagee may have pursuant to the Finance Documents, or as provided at law or in equity, and without limitation, the Finance Obligations and all other amounts payable with respect to the Notes, the Indenture,
this Mortgage and all other Finance Documents shall become due and payable as provided therein. The Mortgagor shall pay to the Mortgagee within the time period set forth in the Finance Documents (or if no time period is specified therein, promptly
after written demand by Mortgagee) all such amounts and such further amounts as shall be reasonably incurred (without regard to statutory presumption) to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees,
disbursements and expenses incurred by the Mortgagee. The Mortgagor hereby waives notice of presentment, demand, protest, acceleration and notice of acceleration to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. In case the Finance Parties shall
fail forthwith to pay such amounts or any amounts due under the Finance Documents or any provision of this Mortgage within the time period set forth in the Finance Documents (or if no time period is specified therein, promptly after written demand
by Mortgagee), the Mortgagee, in addition to any other rights or remedies provided herein or at law or equity, shall be entitled and empowered to institute an action or proceedings at law or in equity for the collection of the sums so due and
unpaid, to prosecute any such action or proceedings to judgment or final decree, to enforce any such judgment or final decree against the Mortgagor and to collect, in any manner provided by law, all moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable.

 Section 4.03 Rights to Take Possession, Operate and Apply Revenues.

 (a) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Mortgagor shall, upon demand of the Mortgagee, forthwith
surrender to the Mortgagee actual possession of the Encumbered Property and, if and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Mortgagee itself, or by such officers or agents as it may appoint, may then enter and take possession of all the
Encumbered Property with or without the appointment of a receiver or an application therefor, exclude the Mortgagor and its agents and employees wholly therefrom, and have access to the books, papers and accounts of the Mortgagor. 

(b) If the Mortgagor shall for any reason fail to surrender or deliver the Encumbered Property or any part thereof after such demand by
the Mortgagee, the Mortgagee may obtain a judgment or decree conferring upon the Mortgagee the right to immediate possession or requiring the Mortgagor to deliver immediate possession of the Encumbered Property to the Mortgagee, to the entry of
which judgment or decree the Mortgagor hereby specifically consents. The Mortgagor will pay to the Mortgagee, upon demand, all reasonable expenses of obtaining such judgment or decree, including compensation to the Mortgagee’s attorneys (for
reasonable fees actually incurred (not as imposed by statute)) and agents with interest thereon at the Default Rate; and all such expenses and compensation shall, until paid, be secured by this Mortgage. 

(c) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Mortgagee may hold, store, use, operate, manage and control the Encumbered
Property, conduct the business thereof and, from time to time, (i) make all necessary, proper and reasonable maintenance, repairs, renewals, replacements, additions, betterments and improvements thereto and thereon, (ii) purchase or
otherwise acquire additional fixtures, personalty and other property, (iii) insure or keep the Encumbered Property insured, (iv) manage and operate the Encumbered Property and exercise all the rights and powers of the Mortgagor to the same
extent as the Mortgagor could in its own name or otherwise with respect to the same or (v) enter into any and all agreements with respect to the exercise by others of any of the powers herein granted to the Mortgagee, all as may from time to
time be directed or determined by the Mortgagee to be in its best interest and the Mortgagor hereby appoints the Mortgagee as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent, for the Mortgagor and in its name, place and stead, in any and all
capacities, to perform any of the foregoing acts. Regardless of whether or not the Mortgagee has entered or taken possession, the Mortgagee may collect and receive all the Rents, issues, profits and revenues from the Encumbered Property, including
those past due as well as those accruing thereafter, and, after deducting (i) all expenses of taking, holding, managing and operating the Encumbered Property (including compensation for the services of all persons employed for such purposes),
(ii) the costs of all such maintenance, repairs, renewals, replacements, additions, betterments, improvements, purchases and acquisitions, (iii) the costs of insurance, (iv) such taxes, assessments and other similar charges as the
Mortgagee may at its option pay, (v) other proper charges upon the Encumbered Property or any part thereof and (vi) the compensation, expenses and disbursements of the attorneys and agents of the Mortgagee, the Mortgagee shall apply the
remainder of the moneys and proceeds so received first to the payment of the Mortgagee for the payment in full and satisfaction of the Finance Obligations, and second, if there is any surplus, to the Mortgagor, subject to the entitlement of others
thereto under applicable law. 
 (d) Whenever, before any sale of the Encumbered Property under Section 4.06 hereof,
Discharge of Finance Obligations shall have occurred, the Mortgagee will surrender possession of the Encumbered Property back to the Mortgagor, its successors or assigns. The same right of taking possession shall, however, arise again if any
subsequent Event of Default shall occur and be continuing. 
 Section 4.04 Right to Cure the Mortgagor’s Failure
to Perform. During the continuance of an Event of Default, without notice to Mortgagor, should the Mortgagor fail in the payment, performance or observance of any term, covenant or condition required by this Mortgage or any other Finance
Document (with respect to the Encumbered Property), the Mortgagee may pay, perform or observe the same, and all payments made or costs or expenses incurred by the Mortgagee in connection 

  
 - 13 -









 
therewith shall be secured hereby and shall be, without demand, immediately repaid by the Mortgagor to the Mortgagee with interest thereon at the Default Rate. The Mortgagee shall make the
determination as to the necessity for any such actions and of the amounts to be paid. The Mortgagee is hereby empowered to enter and to authorize others to enter upon the Premises or the Improvements or any part thereof for the purpose of performing
or observing any such defaulted term, covenant or condition without having any obligation to so perform or observe and without thereby becoming liable to the Mortgagor, to any person in possession holding under the Mortgagor or to any other person.

 Section 4.05 Right to a Receiver. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Mortgagee,
upon application to a court of competent jurisdiction, shall be entitled as a matter of right to the appointment of a receiver to take possession of and to operate the Encumbered Property and to collect and apply the Rents. The Mortgagor hereby
consents to such appointment and acknowledges and agrees that the Mortgagee shall be entitled to such appointment without notice and without regard for the adequacy of security for the Finance Obligations or the solvency of the Mortgagor or any
party liable for the Finance Obligations. The receiver shall have all of the rights and powers permitted under the laws of the state wherein the Encumbered Property is located. The Mortgagor will pay to the Mortgagee upon demand all expenses,
including receiver’s fees, attorneys’ fees and disbursements that are actually incurred (not as imposed by statute), costs and agent’s compensation incurred pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4.05; and all such
expenses shall be secured by this Mortgage and shall be, without demand, immediately repaid by the Mortgagor to the Mortgagee with interest thereon at the Default Rate. 
 Section 4.06 Foreclosure and Sale. 
 (a) If an Event of Default
shall occur and be continuing, the Mortgagee may elect to sell the Encumbered Property or any part of the Encumbered Property by exercise of the power of foreclosure or of sale granted to the Mortgagee by applicable law, this Mortgage or any other
Finance Document. In such case, the Mortgagee may commence a civil action to foreclose this Mortgage, in accordance with applicable law, to satisfy any Finance Obligation. The Mortgagee or an officer appointed by a judgment of foreclosure to sell
the Encumbered Property, may sell all or such parts of the Encumbered Property as may be chosen by the Mortgagee at the time and place of sale fixed by it in a notice of sale, either as a whole or in separate lots, parcels or items as the Mortgagee
shall deem expedient, and in such order as it may determine, at public auction to the highest bidder. The Mortgagee or an officer appointed by a judgment of foreclosure to sell the Encumbered Property may postpone any foreclosure or other sale of
all or any portion of the Encumbered Property by public announcement at such time and place of sale, and from time to time as permitted by applicable law thereafter may postpone such sale by public announcement or subsequently noticed sale. Except
as otherwise required by applicable law, without further notice, the Mortgagee or an officer appointed to sell the Encumbered Property may make such sale at the time fixed by the last postponement, or may, in its discretion, give a new notice of
sale. Any person, including the Mortgagor or the Mortgagee or any designee or affiliate thereof, may purchase any portion of the Encumbered Property at such sale. If the Mortgagee, or any affiliate of the Mortgagee, is the highest bidder at any
foreclosure sale, the Mortgagee may credit the Finance Obligations for the amount of the Mortgagee’s bid in lieu of a cash payment. Mortgagor authorizes and empowers the Mortgagee to execute and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers at any
such foreclosure sale, good and sufficient deed(s) and/or bill(s) of sale of the Encumbered Property, or the part thereof foreclosed upon, all with covenants of general warranty binding on Mortgagor and Mortgagor’s successors and assigns.

 (b) The Encumbered Property may be sold subject to unpaid taxes and the Permitted Encumbrances, and after deducting all the
reasonable actual costs, fees and expenses of the Mortgagee, including, without limitation, costs of evidence of title in connection with the sale, the Mortgagee or an officer that makes any sale shall apply the proceeds of sale in the manner set
forth in Section 4.08 hereof. 

  
 - 14 -









 (c) Any foreclosure or other sale of less than the whole of the Encumbered Property or any
defective or irregular sale made hereunder shall not exhaust the power of foreclosure or of sale provided for herein; and subsequent sales may be made hereunder until Discharge of Finance Obligations shall have occurred, or the entirety of the
Encumbered Property has been sold. 
 (d) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Mortgagee may instead of, or
in addition to, exercising the rights described in Section 4.06(a) above and either with or without entry or taking possession as herein permitted, proceed by a suit or suits in law or in equity or by any other appropriate proceeding or
remedy (i) to specifically enforce payment of some or all of the terms of the Finance Documents or the performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement of this Mortgage or any other right or (ii) to pursue any other remedy
available to it, at law or in equity, all as the Mortgagee shall determine most effectual for such purposes. 

Section 4.07 Other Remedies. 
 (a) In case an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Mortgagee may also exercise, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, any or all of the remedies available to a secured party
under the UCC, including, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, the following: 
 (i) in the case of
personal property, exercise those rights and remedies under the Security Agreement; 
 (ii) to make such payments
and do such acts as the Mortgagee may deem necessary to protect its security interest in the Personal Property including paying, purchasing, contesting or compromising any encumbrance, charge or lien that is prior or superior to the security
interest granted hereunder, and, in exercising any such powers or authority, paying all expenses incurred in connection therewith; or 
 (iii) to enter upon any or all of the Premises or Improvements to exercise the Mortgagee’s rights hereunder. 
 (b) In connection with a sale of the Encumbered Property and the application of the proceeds of sale as provided in Section 4.08 of this Mortgage, the Mortgagee shall be entitled to enforce
payment of and to receive up to the principal amount of the Finance Obligations, plus all other charges, payments and costs due under this Mortgage, and to recover a deficiency judgment for any portion of the aggregate principal amount of the
Finance Obligations remaining unpaid, with interest. 
 Section 4.08 Application of Sale of Proceeds and Rents.

 (a) After any foreclosure sale of all or any of the Encumbered Property, the Mortgagee shall receive the proceeds of sale,
no purchaser shall be required to see to the application of the proceeds, and the Mortgagee shall apply the proceeds of the sale together with any Rents that may have been collected and any other sums that then may be held by the Mortgagee under
this Mortgage as set forth in Article IV of the Noteholder Collateral Agency Agreement. 
 (b) It is understood that nothing
contained in this Mortgage shall exculpate the Mortgagor as to, or otherwise limit the liability of the Mortgagor for, any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Encumbered Property and the amount of the Finance Obligations, unless
otherwise expressly provided in this Mortgage or any of the other Finance Documents. 

  
 - 15 -









 Section 4.09 The Mortgagor as Tenant Holding Over. If the Mortgagor
remains in possession of any of the Encumbered Property after any foreclosure sale by the Mortgagee, at the Mortgagee’s election the Mortgagor shall be deemed a tenant holding over and shall forthwith surrender possession to the purchaser or
purchasers at such sale or be summarily dispossessed or evicted according to provisions of law applicable to tenants holding over. 
 Section 4.10 Waiver of Appraisement, Valuation, Stay, Extension and Redemption Laws. 
 (a) The Mortgagor will not object to any sale of the Encumbered Property made in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, and for itself and all who may claim under it, the Mortgagor waives, to
the extent that it lawfully may, all right to have the Encumbered Property marshaled or to have the Encumbered Property sold as separate estates, parcels, tracts or units in the event of any foreclosure of this Mortgage. 

(b) To the full extent permitted by the law of the state wherein the Encumbered Property is located or other applicable law, neither the
Mortgagor nor anyone claiming through or under it shall or will set up, claim or seek to take advantage of any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, homestead-exemption or redemption laws now or hereafter in force in order to prevent or hinder
the enforcement or foreclosure of this Mortgage, the absolute sale of the Encumbered Property or the final and absolute putting of the purchasers into possession thereof immediately after any sale; and the Mortgagor, for itself and all who may at
any time claim through or under it, hereby waives to the full extent that it may lawfully do so, the benefit of all such laws and any and all right to have the assets covered by the security interest created hereby marshaled upon any foreclosure of
this Mortgage. 
 Section 4.11 Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the Mortgagee shall proceed to enforce
any right, power or remedy under this Mortgage by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall be discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or shall be determined adversely to the Mortgagee, then and in every such case the Mortgagor
and the Mortgagee shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, and all rights, powers and remedies of the Mortgagee shall continue as if no such proceeding had been taken. 

Section 4.12 Suits to Protect the Encumbered Property. The Mortgagee shall have power (i) to institute and
maintain suits and proceedings to prevent any impairment of the Encumbered Property by any acts which may be unlawful or in violation of this Mortgage, (ii) to preserve or protect its interest in the Encumbered Property and in the Rents arising
therefrom and (iii) to restrain the enforcement of or compliance with any legislation or other governmental enactment, rule or order that may be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid if the enforcement of or compliance with such enactment, rule
or order would impair the security or be prejudicial to the interest of the Mortgagee hereunder. 
 Section 4.13
Filing Proofs of Claim. In case of any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other proceedings affecting the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee shall, to the extent permitted by applicable
law, be entitled to file such proofs of claim and other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Mortgagee allowed in such proceedings for the Finance Obligations secured by this Mortgage at the date of the
institution of such proceedings and for any interest accrued, late charges and additional interest or other amounts due or that may become due and payable hereunder after such date. 

  
 - 16 -









 Section 4.14 Possession by the Mortgagee. Notwithstanding the appointment
of any receiver, liquidator or trustee of the Mortgagor, any of its property or the Encumbered Property, the Mortgagee shall be entitled, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, to remain in possession and control of all parts of the
Encumbered Property now or hereafter granted under this Mortgage in accordance with the terms hereof and applicable law. 

Section 4.15 Waiver. 
 (a) No delay or failure by the Mortgagee to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall exhaust or impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of
any such Event of Default or acquiescence therein unless otherwise expressly consented to in writing by the Mortgagee; and every right, power and remedy given by this Mortgage to the Mortgagee may be exercised from time to time and as often as may
be deemed expedient by the Mortgagee. No consent or waiver by the Mortgagee to or of any Event of Default by the Mortgagor in the performance of the Finance Obligations shall be deemed or construed to be a consent or waiver to or of any other Event
of Default in the performance of the same or any other Finance Obligations by the Mortgagor hereunder. No failure on the part of the Mortgagee to complain of any act or failure to act or to declare an Event of Default, irrespective of how long such
failure continues, shall constitute a waiver by the Mortgagee of its rights hereunder or impair any rights, powers or remedies consequent on any future Event of Default by the Mortgagor. 

(b) Even if the Mortgagee (i) grants some forbearance or an extension of time for the payment of any sums secured hereby,
(ii) takes other or additional security for the payment of any sums secured hereby, (iii) waives or does not exercise some right granted herein or under the Finance Documents, (iv) releases a part of the Encumbered Property from this
Mortgage, (v) agrees to change some of the terms, covenants, conditions or agreements of any of the Finance Documents, (vi) consents to the filing of a map, plat or replat affecting the Premises, (vii) consents to the granting of an
easement or other right affecting the Premises or (viii) makes or consents to an agreement subordinating the Mortgagee’s lien on the Encumbered Property hereunder; no such act or omission shall preclude the Mortgagee from exercising any
other right, power or privilege herein granted or intended to be granted in the event of any Event of Default then made or of any subsequent Event of Default; nor, except as otherwise expressly provided in an instrument executed by the Mortgagee,
shall this Mortgage be altered thereby. In the event of the sale or transfer by operation of law or otherwise of all or part of the Encumbered Property, the Mortgagee is hereby authorized and empowered to deal with any vendee or transferee with
reference to the Encumbered Property secured hereby, or with reference to any of the terms, covenants, conditions or agreements hereof, as fully and to the same extent as it might deal with the original parties hereto and without in any way
releasing or discharging any liabilities, obligations or undertakings. 
 Section 4.16 Remedies Cumulative.
No right, power or remedy conferred upon or reserved to the Mortgagee by this Mortgage is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy, and each and every such right, power and remedy shall be cumulative and concurrent and in
addition to any other right, power and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.

MISCELLANEOUS

provisions hereof or of those Finance Documents shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction 

  
 - 17 -









 
and the remaining provisions hereof will be liberally construed in favor of the Mortgagee in order to carry out the provisions hereof and of such other Finance Documents. The invalidity of any
provision of this Mortgage in any jurisdiction or under any circumstances will not affect the validity or enforceability of any such provision in any other jurisdiction or under any other circumstances. If any lien, encumbrance or security interest
evidenced or created by this Mortgage is invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, as to any part of the Finance Obligations, or is invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, as to any part of the Encumbered Property, such portion, if any,
of the Finance Obligations as is not secured by all of the Encumbered Property hereunder shall be paid prior to the payment of the portion of the Finance Obligations and shall, unless prohibited by applicable laws or unless Mortgagee, in its sole
and absolute discretion, otherwise elects, be deemed to have been first paid on and applied to payment in full of the unsecured or partially secured portion of the Finance Obligations, and the remainder to the secured portion of the Finance
Obligations.

 Section 5.05
Other Finance Documents. The Mortgagor acknowledges that in addition to this Mortgage, other Finance Documents secure the Finance Obligations. The Mortgagor agrees that the lien of this Mortgage shall be absolute and unconditional and
shall not in any manner be affected or impaired by any acts or omissions whatsoever of the Mortgagee and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the lien hereof shall not be impaired by any acceptance by the Mortgagee of any security for
or guarantees of any of the Finance Obligations hereby secured, or by any failure, neglect or omission on the part of the Mortgagee to realize upon or protect any Finance Obligation hereby secured or any collateral security therefor including the
other Finance Documents. The lien hereof shall not in any manner be impaired or affected by any release (except as to the property released), sale, pledge, surrender, compromise, settlement, renewal, extension, indulgence, alteration, changing,
modification or disposition of any of the Finance Obligations or of any of the collateral security therefor, including the other Finance Documents or of any guarantee thereof, and the Mortgagee may at its discretion foreclose,


  
 - 19 -









 
exercise any power of sale, or exercise any other remedy available to it under any or all of the other Finance Documents without first exercising or enforcing any of its rights and remedies
hereunder. Such exercise of the Mortgagee’s rights and remedies under any or all of the other Finance Documents shall not in any manner impair the Finance Obligations or the lien of this Mortgage and any exercise of the rights or remedies of
the Mortgagee hereunder shall not impair the lien of any of the other Finance Documents or any of the Mortgagee’s rights and remedies thereunder. The undersigned specifically consents and agrees that the Mortgagee may exercise its rights and
remedies hereunder and under the other Finance Documents separately or concurrently and in any order that it may deem appropriate, and the undersigned waives any rights of subrogation. In the event of a conflict between the terms and provisions of
this Mortgage and any other Finance Document, both documents shall be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of a conflict that cannot be resolved, the terms and provisions of the
Credit Agreement or the Security Agreement shall control and govern irrespective of the provisions of this Mortgage. 

Section 5.06 Subrogation. This Mortgage is made with full substitution and subrogation of Mortgagee in and to all
covenants and warranties by others heretofore given or made in respect of the Encumbered Property or any part thereof. To the extent that proceeds of the Finance Obligations are used to pay any outstanding lien, charge or prior encumbrance against
the Encumbered Property, such proceeds have been or will be advanced by Mortgagee at Mortgagor’s request, and Mortgagee shall be subrogated to any and all rights and liens held by any owner or holder of such outstanding liens, charges and prior
encumbrances, irrespective of whether those liens, charges or encumbrances are released. 
 Section 5.07 Mortgagee
Powers. Without affecting the liability of any other Person liable for the payment of any obligations herein mentioned and without affecting the lien or charge of this Mortgage upon any portion of the Encumbered Property not then or
theretofore released as security for the full amount of all unpaid Finance Obligations, from time to time, regardless of consideration and without notice to or consent by the holder of any subordinate lien, encumbrance, right, title or interest in
or to the Encumbered Property, the Mortgagee may in accordance with the express terms and provisions of the Finance Documents (i) release any persons liable for or on any Finance Obligation, (ii) extend the maturity or alter any of the
terms of any Finance Obligation, (iii) modify the interest rate payable on the principal balance of the Finance Obligations, (iv) grant other indulgences, (v) release or reconvey, or cause to be released or reconveyed at any time at

appropriate under applicable laws. A carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Mortgage or any financing statement in connection herewith shall be sufficient as a financing statement for any and all purposes. 

Section 5.09 Amendments. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended, modified or waived if, but only if, such
amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Mortgagor and the Mortgagee. No failure by the Mortgagee to exercise, and no delay by the Mortgagee in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and
privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

(as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”) among Agent, Noteholder Collateral Agent and the Initial Grantors. Capitalized terms used in this intercompany

 This Note shall be pledged by each Payee that is a Loan Party (as defined in the Credit Agreement) (i) to the Noteholder Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Noteholder Lien Secured Parties,
pursuant to the Noteholder Lien Documents as collateral security for the full and prompt payment when due of, and the performance of, such Payee’s Noteholder Lien Debt and (ii) to the ABL Agent, for the benefit of the ABL Secured Parties,
pursuant to the ABL Security Documents as collateral security for the full and prompt payment when due of, and the performance of, such Payee’s ABL Debt Obligations. Each Payee hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) after the occurrence

continuance of an Event of Default under and as defined in the Credit Agreement, but subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the ABL Agent may, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided pursuant to the ABL Security Documents
and otherwise available to it, exercise all rights of the Loan Party Payees with respect to this Note. 







 Anything in this Note to the contrary notwithstanding, the indebtedness evidenced by this
Note owed by any Payor that is a Loan Party to any Payee shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to all Senior Secured Obligations of such Payor to the ABL Secured Parties until the
Termination Date (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and to all Senior Secured Obligations of such Payor to the Noteholder Lien Secured Parties until the Termination Date (as defined in that certain Security Agreement, dated as of the date hereof,
by and among the Company, each Grantor from time to time party thereto and the Noteholder Collateral Agent); provided that each Payor may make payments to the applicable Payee so long as no Event of Default under and as defined in either the
Credit Agreement or the Noteholder Lien Documents shall have occurred and be continuing (such Obligations and other indebtedness and obligations in connection with any renewal, refunding, restructuring or refinancing thereof, including interest
thereon accruing after the commencement of any proceedings referred to in clause (i) below, whether or not such interest is an allowed claim in such proceeding, being hereinafter collectively referred to as “Senior
Indebtedness”): 
 (i) In the event of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, and any receivership, liquidation,
reorganization or other similar proceedings in connection therewith, relative to any Payor or to its property, and in the event of any proceedings for voluntary liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of such Payor (except as expressly
permitted by the Credit Agreement and the Noteholder Lien Documents), whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, then, if an Event of Default (as defined in either the Credit Agreement or the Noteholder Lien Documents) has occurred and is
continuing (x) the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be irrevocably paid in full in cash in respect of all amounts constituting Senior Indebtedness (other than Hedging Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement), Treasury Services
Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or contingent indemnification obligations) before any Payee is entitled to receive (whether directly or indirectly), or make any demands for, any payment on account of this Note and (y) until the
holders of Senior Indebtedness are irrevocably paid in full in cash in respect of all amounts constituting Senior Indebtedness (other than Hedging Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement), Treasury Services Obligations (as defined in the
Credit Agreement) or contingent indemnification obligations), any payment or distribution to which such Payee would otherwise be entitled (other than debt securities of such Payor that are subordinated, to at least the same extent as this Note, to
the payment of all Senior Indebtedness then outstanding (such securities being hereinafter referred to as “Restructured Debt Securities”)) shall be made to the holders of Senior Indebtedness; 

(ii) if any Event of Default (as under and defined in either the Credit Agreement or the Noteholder Lien Documents) occurs and is
continuing, then no payment or distribution of any kind or character shall be made by or on behalf of the Payor or any other Person on its behalf with respect to this Note; 
 (iii) if any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property (other than Restructured Debt Securities), in respect of this Note shall (despite these subordination
provisions) be received by any Payee in violation of clause (i) or (ii) before all Senior Indebtedness shall have been irrevocably paid in full in cash (other than Hedging Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement), Treasury Services
Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or contingent indemnification obligations), such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered in accordance with the Security Documents,
subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement; and 
 (iv) Each Payor agrees to file all claims against each relevant Payee
in any bankruptcy or other proceeding in which the filing of claims is required by law in respect of any Senior Indebtedness, and the Noteholder Collateral Agent and the ABL Agent (together, the “Collateral Agents”) shall be
entitled to all of such Payor’s rights thereunder. If for any reason a Payor fails to file such claim at least ten (10) days prior to the last date on which such claim should be filed, such Payor hereby irrevocably appoints each Collateral
Agent as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact and each 

  
 2 








 
Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to act as attorney-in-fact in such Payor’s name to file such claim or, in such Collateral Agent’s discretion, to assign such claim to and cause
proof of claim to be filed in the name of such Collateral Agent or its nominee. In all such cases, whether in administration, bankruptcy or otherwise, the person or persons authorized to pay such claim shall pay to the applicable Collateral Agent
the full amount payable on the claim in the proceeding, and, to the full extent necessary for that purpose, each Payor hereby assigns to each of the Collateral Agents all of such Payor’s rights to any payments or distributions to which such
Payor otherwise would be entitled. If the amount so paid is greater than such Payor’s liability hereunder, the Collateral Agents shall pay the excess amount to the party entitled thereto under the Intercreditor Agreement and applicable law. In
addition, each Payor hereby irrevocably appoints each Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact to exercise all of such Payor’s voting rights in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding or any plan for the reorganization of each relevant Payee.

 To the fullest extent permitted by law, no present or future holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be prejudiced in its right
to enforce the subordination of this Note by any act or failure to act on the part of any Payor or Payee or by any act or failure to act on the part of such holder or any trustee or agent for such holder. Each Payee and each Payor hereby agree that
the subordination of this Note is for the benefit of each Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties. Each Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties are obligees under this Note to the same extent as if their names were written herein as
such and each Collateral Agent may, on behalf of itself, and the Secured Parties, proceed to enforce the subordination provisions herein. 
 The indebtedness evidenced by this Note owed by any Payor that is not a Loan Party shall not be subordinated to, and shall rank pari passu in right of payment with, any other obligation of
such Payor. 
 Nothing contained in the subordination provisions set forth above is intended to or will impair, as
between each Payor and each Payee, the obligations of such Payor, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay to such Payee the principal of and interest on this Note as and when due and payable in accordance with its terms, or is intended to or
will affect the relative rights of such Payee and other creditors of such Payor other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness. 

Each Payee is hereby authorized to record all loans and advances made by it to any Payor (all of which shall be evidenced by this Note),
and all repayments or prepayments thereof, in its books and records, such books and records constituting prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information contained therein. 

Each Payor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind in connection with this Note. All payments under this Note
shall be made without offset, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. 
 It is understood that this Note shall not evidence
indebtedness in respect of accounts payable incurred in connection with goods sold or services rendered in the ordinary course of business and not in connection with the borrowing of money. 

This Note shall be binding upon each Payor and its successors and assigns, and the terms and provisions of this Note shall inure to the
benefit of each Payee and their respective successors and assigns, including subsequent holders hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in any Secured Document or in any other promissory note or other instrument, this Note
replaces and supersedes any and all promissory notes or other instruments which create or evidence any loans or advances made on, before or after the date hereof by any Payee to any other Subsidiary. 

  
 3 








 From time to time after the date hereof, additional Subsidiaries of the Company may become
parties hereto (as Payor and/or Payee, as the case may be) by executing a counterpart signature page to this Note (each additional Subsidiary, an “Additional Party”). Upon delivery of such counterpart signature page to the Payees,
notice of which is hereby waived by the other Payors, each Additional Party shall be a Payor and/or a Payee, as the case may be, and shall be as fully a party hereto as if such Additional Party were an original signatory hereof. Each Payor expressly
agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Payor or Payee hereunder. This Note shall be fully effective as to any Payor or Payee that is or becomes a party hereto
regardless of whether any other person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Payor or Payee hereunder. 
 THIS NOTE SHALL
BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
