WHEREAS, the Borrowers, the lenders party thereto (the “Prior Lenders”) and Fifth Third Bank, as Administrative Agent, previously entered into a Credit Agreement dated as of November 7, 2012 (the “Prior Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which the Prior Lenders agreed to extend certain credit facilities to the Borrowers, for the account of the Borrowers, on the terms and conditions set forth therein;

WHEREAS, this Agreement constitutes for all purposes an amendment to the Prior Credit Agreement and not a new or substitute agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and mutual agreements set forth in this Agreement, the parties to this Agreement agree as follows:
		
	SECTION 1.
	DEFINITIONS; INTERPRETATION.    







Exhibit 10.1


Section 1.1.    Definitions.  The following terms when used herein shall have the following meanings:
“Acquired Business” means the entity or assets acquired by any Borrower or any Subsidiary in an Acquisition, whether before or after the Effective Date.
“Acquired Indebtedness” means Indebtedness of a Person whose assets or Ownership Interests are acquired by any Borrower or any Subsidiary of any Borrower in a Permitted Acquisition; provided, however that such Indebtedness is either Purchase Money Indebtedness or a Capital Lease with respect to equipment or mortgage financing with respect to Real Property, was in existence prior to the date of such Permitted Acquisition, and was not incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Permitted Acquisition.
“Acquisition” means any transaction or series of related transactions for the purpose of or resulting, directly or indirectly, in (a) the acquisition of all or substantially all of the assets of a Person, or of any business or division of a Person (other than from a Subsidiary of the MLP), (b) the acquisition of in excess of 50% of the capital stock, partnership interests, membership interests or equity of any Person (other than a Person that is a Subsidiary), or otherwise causing any Person to become a Subsidiary, (c) a merger or consolidation or any other combination with another Person (other than a Person that is a Subsidiary), provided that the MLP or a Subsidiary is the surviving entity, or (d) a Special Asset Acquisition.
“Additional Commitments” is defined in Section 2.1(b) hereof.
“Adjusted LIBOR” means, for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, a rate per annum equal to the quotient of (a) LIBOR, divided by (b) one minus the Reserve Percentage.
“Administrative Agent” means Fifth Third Bank, an Ohio banking corporation, as contractual representative for itself and the other Lenders and any successor pursuant to Section 9.8.
“Administrative Questionnaire” means, with respect to each Lender, an Administrative Questionnaire in a form supplied by the Administrative Agent and duly completed by such Lender.
“Affiliate” means any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by, or under direct or indirect common control with, another Person.  A Person shall be deemed to control another Person for the purposes of this definition if such Person possesses, directly or indirectly, the power to direct, or cause the direction of, the management and policies of the other Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, common directors, trustees or officers, by contract or otherwise; provided that, in any event for purposes of this definition, any Person that owns, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the securities having the ordinary voting power for the election of directors or 

-2‐


Exhibit 10.1


governing body of a corporation or 10% or more of the partnership or other ownership interest of any other Person (other than as a limited partner of such other Person) will be deemed to control such corporation or other Person; provided further that any owner of publicly traded shares of Holdings who would otherwise not constitute an Affiliate under this definition shall not be an Affiliate hereunder.
“Agreement” means this Credit Agreement, as the same may be amended, modified, restated or supplemented from time to time pursuant to the terms hereof.
“Applicable Margin” means, with respect to Loans, Reimbursement Obligations, and the commitment fees and Letter of Credit fees payable under Section 2.12, until the first Pricing Date, the rates per annum shown opposite Level V below, and thereafter from one Pricing Date to the next the Applicable Margin means the rates per annum determined in accordance with the following schedule:
	
					
	Level
	Leverage Ratio for  
such Pricing Date
	Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans and Canadian Prime Rate Loan shall be:
	Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Loans, Canadian CDOR Loans and Letter of Credit fees shall be:
	Applicable Margin for commitment fee shall be:

	I
	Greater than 3.25 to 1.00
	1.75%
	2.75%
	.50%

	II
	Less than or equal to 3.25 to 1.00, but greater than  2.75 to 1.00
	1.50%
	2.50%
	.50%

	III
	Less than or equal to 2.75 to 1.00, but greater than  2.25 to 1.00
	1.25%
	2.25%
	.40%

	IV
	Less than  or equal to 2.25 to 1.00, but greater than 1.75 to 1.00
	1.00%

	V
	Less than or equal to 1.75 to 1.00
	.75%
	1.75%
	.25%




For purposes hereof, the term “Pricing Date” means, for any fiscal quarter of the Consolidated Group ending on or after June 30, 2013, the date on which the Administrative Agent is in receipt of the MLP’s most recent consolidated financial statements (and, in the case of the year-end financial statements, audit report) for the fiscal quarter then ended, pursuant to Section 6.1.  The Applicable Margin shall be established based on the Leverage Ratio for the most recently completed fiscal quarter and the Applicable Margin established on a Pricing Date shall remain in effect until the next Pricing Date.  If the Borrowers have not delivered the MLP’s consolidated financial statements by the date such financial statements (and, in the case of the year-end financial statements, audit report) are required to be delivered under Section 6.1, until such financial statements and audit report are delivered, the Applicable Margin shall be the highest Applicable Margin (i.e., the Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be greater than 3.25 to 1.0).  If the Borrowers subsequently deliver such financial statements before the next Pricing Date, the Applicable Margin established by such late delivered 

-3‐


Exhibit 10.1


financial statements shall take effect from the date of delivery until the next Pricing Date.  In all other circumstances, the Applicable Margin established by such financial statements shall be in effect from the Pricing Date that occurs immediately after the end of the fiscal quarter covered by such financial statements until the next Pricing Date.  Each determination of the Applicable Margin made by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the foregoing shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the Lenders absent manifest error.

Exhibit 10.1


Date, that the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments be increased by an aggregate amount not to exceed Fifty Million U.S. Dollars ($50,000,000) (such additional U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments are referred to herein as the “Additional Commitments”); provided that (x) each request for a U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment increase shall be in a minimum amount of Ten Million U.S. Dollars ($10,000,000), (y) no more than four requests for a U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment increase may be made during any consecutive twelve-month period and (z) in no event shall the aggregate U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments exceed at any time Three Hundred Seventy Million U.S. Dollars ($370,000,000); and provided further that, to the extent that the request occurs after the Effective Date, (i) no Default or Event of Default exists at the time of such request, (ii) the Borrowers’ Agent gives the Administrative Agent thirty (30) days prior written notice of such election, (iii) no Lender shall be obligated to increase such Lender’s U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment without such Lender’s prior written consent, which may be withheld in such Lender’s sole discretion, and (iv) any Person providing any Additional Commitment amount that is not already a Lender must be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the U.S. L/C Issuers and the Borrowers’ Agent.  In connection with any such increase in the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments the parties shall execute any documents reasonably requested in connection with or to evidence such increase, including without limitation an amendment to this Agreement.  In the event of any increase in the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.1(b), the U.S. L/C Sublimit and the U.S. Swing Line Sublimit shall increase automatically pro rata on a percentage basis (i.e. any percentage increase in the aggregate amount of the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section shall result in an equal percentage increase the U.S. Swing Line Sublimit and the U.S. L/C Sublimit).
(c)    Adjustments.  On the date (“Funding Date”) of any future increase in the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments permitted by this Agreement (which date shall be designated by the Administrative Agent, after consultation with the Borrowers’ Agent), each U.S. Lender who has an Additional Commitment shall fund to the Administrative Agent such amounts as may be required to cause each such Lender to hold its U.S. Revolver Percentage of Loans based upon the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments as of such Funding Date, and the Administrative Agent shall distribute the funds so received, if necessary, to the other U.S. Lenders in such amounts as may be required to cause each of them to hold its U.S. Revolver Percentage of Loans as of such Funding Date.  Any amounts paid to other U.S. Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.1(c) shall be subject to the Borrowers’ obligations under Section 8.1.  The first payment of interest and Letter of Credit fees received by the Administrative Agent after such Funding Date shall be paid to the U.S. Lenders in amounts adjusted to reflect the adjustments of their respective U.S. Revolver Percentages as of the Funding Date.  On the Funding Date each U.S. Lender shall be deemed to have either sold or purchased, as applicable, U.S. Participating Interests so that upon consummation of all such sales and purchases, each U.S. Lender, other than any U.S. Lender acting as a U.S. L/C Issuer, holds an 

-45‐


Exhibit 10.1


undivided participating interest in each U.S. Letter of Credit and each U.S. Reimbursement Obligation equal to such U.S. Revolver Percentage as of such Funding Date.
(d)    Canadian Revolving Loans.  Prior to the Termination Date, each Canadian Lender, by its acceptance hereof, severally and not jointly agrees, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, to make a revolving loan or loans (each individually a “Canadian Revolving Loan” and, collectively, the “Canadian Revolving Loans”) in U.S. Dollars or Canadian Dollars to the Borrowers from time to time on a revolving basis up to the amount of such Lender’s Canadian Revolving Credit Commitment in effect at such time; provided, however, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the sum of the aggregate principal amount of all Canadian Revolving Loans, Canadian Swing Loans, and Canadian L/C Obligations at any time outstanding shall not exceed the sum of all Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments in effect at such time.  Each Borrowing of Canadian Revolving Loans shall be made ratably by the Canadian Lenders in proportion to their respective Canadian Revolver Percentages.  As provided in Section 2.4(a), and subject to the terms hereof, the Borrowers may elect that each Borrowing of Canadian Revolving Loans be either (i) denominated in U.S. Dollars in the form of Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans or (ii) denominated in Canadian Dollars in the form of Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans.  Canadian Revolving Loans may be repaid and reborrowed before the Termination Date, subject to the terms and conditions hereof.  As provided in Section 8.6, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of its Canadian Revolving Loans in any manner it sees fit, including funding from an Affiliate or a branch of the Lender located outside of the United States of America.
Section 2.2.    Letters of Credit    .  (a) General Terms.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (i) as part of the U.S. Revolving Credit, each U.S. L/C Issuer agrees to issue standby letters of credit (each a “U.S. Letter of Credit”) under the U.S. Revolving Credit for each Borrower’s account in U.S. Dollars in an aggregate undrawn face amount up to the U.S. L/C Sublimit; and (ii) as part of the Canadian Revolving Credit, the Canadian L/C Issuer shall issue standby and commercial letters of credit (each a “Canadian Letter of Credit”) under the Canadian Revolving Credit for each Borrower’s account in U.S. Dollars or Canadian Dollars in an aggregate undrawn face amount with a U.S. Dollar Equivalent not to exceed the Canadian L/C Sublimit; provided that, no Letter of Credit shall be issued (or amended, renewed or extended) by any L/C Issuer unless (A) such L/C Issuer shall have given to the Administrative Agent written notice thereof required under Section 2.2(i) hereunder, and (B) after giving effect to such issuance (or amendment, renewal or extension) the sum of (x) the aggregate principal amount of U.S. Revolving Loans, U.S. Swing Loans and U.S. L/C Obligations at any time outstanding shall not exceed the sum of all U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments in effect at such time, and (y) the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of Canadian Revolving Loans, Canadian Swing Loans and Canadian L/C Obligations at any time outstanding shall not exceed the sum of all Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments in effect at such time.  The parties hereto agree that any Existing Letters of Credit 

-46‐


Exhibit 10.1


outstanding on the Effective Date shall be deemed Letters of Credit issued under the Agreement and shall be governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  Each U.S. Lender shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable U.S. L/C Issuer for such U.S. Lender’s U.S. Revolver Percentage of the amount of each drawing under a U.S. Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms hereof and, accordingly, each U.S. Letter of Credit shall constitute usage of the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitment of each U.S. Lender pro rata in an amount equal to its U.S. Revolver Percentage of the U.S. L/C Obligations then outstanding.  Each Canadian Lender shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Canadian L/C Issuer for such Canadian Lender’s Canadian Revolver Percentage of the amount of each drawing under a Canadian Letter of Credit and, accordingly, each Canadian Letter of Credit shall constitute usage of the Canadian Revolving Credit Commitment of each Canadian Lender pro rata in an amount equal to its Canadian Revolver Percentage of the Canadian L/C Obligations then outstanding.  The obligations of the L/C Issuers under this Agreement are several and not joint.
(b)    Applications.  At any time before the Termination Date, the applicable L/C Issuer shall, at the request of the Borrowers’ Agent, issue one or more Letters of Credit in U.S. Dollars, or, solely with respect to Canadian Letters of Credit, at the option of Borrowers’ Agent, in US Dollars or in Canadian Dollars, in form and substance acceptable to such L/C Issuer, with expiration dates no later than the earlier of 12 months from the date of issuance (or which are cancelable not later than 12 months from the date of issuance and each renewal) or 30 days prior to the Termination Date (unless the Borrowers have provided Cash Collateral in compliance with the requirements of Section 4.5 as security for such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to 103% of the full amount then available for drawing under such Letter of Credit) in an aggregate face amount as set forth in Section 2.2(a), upon the receipt of a duly executed application for the relevant Letter of Credit in the form then customarily prescribed by the L/C Issuer for the Letter of Credit requested (each an “Application”).  Notwithstanding anything contained in any Application to the contrary:  (i) the Borrowers shall pay fees in connection with each Letter of Credit as set forth in Section 2.12(b), and (ii) if the applicable L/C Issuer is not timely reimbursed for the amount of any drawing under a Letter of Credit on the date such drawing is paid, the Borrowers’ obligation to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of such drawing shall bear interest (which the Borrowers hereby promise to pay) from and after the date such drawing is paid at a rate per annum (x) if such Letter of Credit is denominated in Canadian Dollars, equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Canadian Prime Rate from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed) and (y) if such Letter of Credit is denominated in U.S. Dollars, equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed); provided, however, that, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon the election of the Administrative Agent, acting at the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders with written notice to the Borrowers, or upon acceleration, the 

-47‐


Exhibit 10.1


interest on such drawing shall be equal to the foregoing applicable rate per annum plus 2.0%.  Without limiting the foregoing, each L/C Issuer’s obligation to issue, amend or extend the expiration date of a Letter of Credit is subject to the terms or conditions of this Agreement (including the conditions set forth in Section 3.1 and the other terms of this Section 2.2).  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to issue, extend or amend any Letter of Credit if any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder unless the Borrowers or such Defaulting Lender has provided Cash Collateral in compliance with Section 4.5 sufficient to eliminate the L/C Issuer’s risk with respect to the Defaulting Lender.
(c)    The Reimbursement Obligations.  Subject to Section 2.2(b), the obligation of the Borrowers to reimburse an L/C Issuer for all drawings under a Letter of Credit (a “Reimbursement Obligation”) shall be governed by the Application related to such Letter of Credit and this Agreement, except that reimbursement shall be paid by no later than 12:00 Noon (Cincinnati time) on the date which each drawing is to be paid if the Borrowers have been informed of such drawing by such L/C Issuer on or before 11:30 a.m. (Cincinnati time) on the date when such drawing is to be paid or, if notice of such drawing is given to the Borrowers after 11:30 a.m. (Cincinnati time) on the date when such drawing is to be paid, by the end of such day, in all instances in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s principal office in Cincinnati, Ohio or such other office as the Administrative Agent may designate in writing to the Borrowers, and the Administrative Agent shall thereafter cause to be distributed to the applicable L/C Issuer such amount(s) in like funds.  With respect to any Letter of Credit denominated in U.S. Dollars, the Borrowers shall reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer in U.S. Dollars.  With respect to any Canadian Letter of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars, the Borrowers shall reimburse the applicable Canadian L/C Issuer in Canadian Dollars, unless such Canadian L/C Issuer (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will require reimbursement in U.S. Dollars in an amount equal to the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of such Reimbursement Obligation.  If the Borrowers do not make any such reimbursement payment on the date due and the Participating Lenders fund their participations in the manner set forth in Section 2.2(d) below, then all payments thereafter received by the Administrative Agent in discharge of any of the relevant Reimbursement Obligations shall be distributed in the currency received in accordance with Section 2.2(d) below.  In addition, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and each Lender, the Borrowers agree that, notwithstanding any provision of any Application, their obligations under this Section 2.2(c) and each Application shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Applications, under all circumstances whatsoever, and irrespective of any claim or defense that the Borrowers may otherwise have against the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender, including without limitation (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document; (ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of any Loan Document; (iii) the existence of any claim, of set-off the Borrowers may have at any time against a beneficiary of a Letter of Credit (or 

-48‐


Exhibit 10.1


any Person for whom a beneficiary may be acting), the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, another Loan Document, the transaction related to the Loan Document or any unrelated transaction; (iv) any statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (v) payment by the Administrative Agent or an L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit against presentation to the Administrative Agent or an L/C Issuer of a draft or certificate that does not comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit, or (vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Administrative Agent or an L/C Issuer, any Lender or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.2(c), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder or under an Application.  None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, or the L/C Issuers shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the L/C Issuer; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the L/C Issuers from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrowers that are caused by the applicable L/C Issuer’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.  The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any L/C Issuer or its employee or agent (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment), such L/C Issuer shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination.  In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, an L/C Issuer may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.
(d)    The Participating Interests.  Each U.S. Lender (other than the Lender acting as U.S. L/C Issuer with respect to the applicable U.S. Letter of Credit) severally and not jointly agrees to purchase from the U.S. L/C Issuers, and each such L/C Issuer hereby agrees to sell to each such U.S. Lender (a “U.S. Participating Lender”), an undivided participating interest (a “U.S. Participating Interest”) to the extent of its U.S. Revolver Percentage in each U.S. Letter of Credit 

-49‐


Exhibit 10.1


issued by, and each U.S. Reimbursement Obligation owed to, such U.S. L/C Issuer.  Each Canadian Lender (other than the Lender acting as Canadian L/C Issuer with respect to the applicable Canadian Letter of Credit) severally and not jointly agrees to purchase from the Canadian L/C Issuers, and each such L/C Issuer hereby agrees to sell to each such Canadian Lender (a “Canadian Participating Lender”), an undivided participating interest (a “Canadian  Participating Interest”) to the extent of its Canadian Revolver Percentage in each Canadian Letter of Credit issued by, and each Canadian Reimbursement Obligation owed to, such Canadian L/C Issuer.  Upon Borrowers’ failure to pay any Reimbursement Obligation on the date and at the time required, or if an L/C Issuer is required at any time to return to the Borrowers or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other Person any portion of any payment of any Reimbursement Obligation, each Participating Lender shall, not later than the Business Day it receives a certificate in the form of Exhibit A hereto from such L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) to such effect, if such certificate is received before 1:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time), or not later than 1:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time) the following Business Day, if such certificate is received after such time, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer an amount equal to such Participating Lender’s U.S. Revolver Percentage or Canadian Revolver Percentage, as applicable, of such unpaid or recaptured Reimbursement Obligation together with interest on such amount accrued from the date the applicable L/C Issuer made the related payment to the date of such payment by such Participating Lender at a rate per annum equal to: (i) from the date the related payment was made by the applicable L/C Issuer to the date two (2) Business Days after payment by such Participating Lender is due hereunder, (x) if such Letter of Credit is denominated in Canadian Dollars, in Canadian Dollars the Canadian L/C Issuer’s cost of funds for such day and (y) if such Letter of Credit is denominated in U.S. Dollars, in U.S. Dollars the Federal Funds Rate for each such day and (ii) from the date two (2) Business Days after the date such payment is due from such Participating Lender to the date such payment is made by such Participating Lender, (x) if such Letter of Credit is denominated in Canadian Dollars, in Canadian Dollars the Canadian Prime Rate in effect for such day and (y) if such Letter of Credit is denominated in U.S. Dollars, in U.S. Dollars the Base Rate in effect for each such day.  Each such Participating Lender shall, after making its appropriate payment, be entitled to receive its Percentage of each payment received in respect of the relevant Reimbursement Obligation and of interest paid thereon, with the applicable L/C Issuer retaining its Percentage thereof as a Lender hereunder.  
The several obligations of the Participating Lenders to the L/C Issuers under this Section 2.2 shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances and shall not be subject to any set‐off, counterclaim or defense to payment which any Participating Lender may have or has had against the Borrowers, the applicable L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such obligations shall not be affected by any Default or Event of Default or by any reduction or termination of the 

-50‐


Exhibit 10.1


Commitment of any Lender, and each payment by a Participating Lender under this Section 2.2 shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.  
(e)    Indemnification.  The Participating Lenders shall, severally, to the extent of their respective Percentages, indemnify each L/C Issuer (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from an L/C Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment) that an L/C Issuer may suffer or incur in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it.  The obligations of the Participating Lenders under this Section 2.2(e) and all other parts of this Section 2.2 shall survive termination of this Agreement and of all Applications, Letters of Credit, and all drafts and other documents presented in connection with drawings thereunder.
(f)    Manner of Requesting a Letter of Credit.  The Borrowers’ Agent shall provide at least three Business Days’ advance written notice to the Administrative Agent (or such lesser notice as the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer may agree in their sole discretion) of each request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, each such notice to be accompanied by a properly completed and executed Application for the requested Letter of Credit and, in the case of an extension or amendment or an increase in the amount of a Letter of Credit, a written request therefor, in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer, in each case, together with the fees called for by this Agreement.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable L/C Issuer of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of each such notice (and the applicable L/C Issuer shall be entitled to assume that the conditions precedent to any such issuance, extension, amendment or increase have been satisfied unless notified to the contrary by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders) and the applicable L/C Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of the issuance of a Letter of Credit.
(g)    Conflict with Application.  In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between this Agreement and the terms of any Application, the terms of this Agreement shall control.  Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, any Application or any other document related to issuing a Letter of Credit, any grant of a security interest pursuant to any Application shall be null and void.
(h)    Increases in the U.S. L/C Sublimit.  The U.S. L/C Sublimit may be increased pursuant to Section 2.1(b)
(i)    L/C Issuer Reports to Administrative Agent.  Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer shall, in addition to its notification obligations set forth elsewhere in this Section 2.2, report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) periodic activity (for 

-51‐


Exhibit 10.1


such period or recurrent periods as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent) in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancellations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) reasonably prior to the time that such L/C Issuer issues, amends, renews or extends any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension and the face amount of the Letters of Credit issued, amended, renewed or extended by such L/C Issuer outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amounts thereof shall have changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such L/C Issuer honors any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the date and amount of the drawing so honored, (iv) on any Business Day on which any Borrower fails to reimburse any drawing under a Letter of Credit as required hereunder, the date of such failure and the amount of such unreimbursed drawing, and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer.
(j)    Designation of Additional L/C Issuer; Termination of any L/C Issuer.  
(i)    The Borrowers’ Agent may, at any time and from time to time, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) designate as additional L/C Issuers one or more Lenders that agree to serve in such capacity as provided in this Section.  The acceptance by a Lender of an appointment as an L/C Issuer hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement, which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, executed by the Borrowers’ Agent, the Administrative Agent and such designated Lender and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (A) such Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an L/C Issuer under this Agreement and (B) references herein to the term L/C Issuer shall be deemed to include such Lender in its capacity as an issuer of Letters of Credit hereunder. 
(ii)    The Borrowers’ Agent may terminate the appointment of any L/C Issuer as an L/C Issuer hereunder by providing a written notice thereof to such L/C Issuer, with a copy to the Administrative Agent.  Any such termination shall become effective upon the earlier of (A) such L/C Issuer acknowledging receipt of such notice and (B) the 10th Business Day following the date of the delivery thereof; provided that no such termination shall become effective until and unless the L/C Obligations attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer shall have been reduced to zero.  At the time any such termination shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the terminated L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.12(b).  Notwithstanding the effectiveness of any such termination, the terminated L/C Issuer shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights of an L/C Issuer under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such termination, but shall not issue any additional Letters of Credit.  

-52‐


Exhibit 10.1


(k)    Responsibility of each L/C Issuer.  In determining whether to honor any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the sole responsibility of L/C Issuer shall be to examine the documents delivered under such Letter of Credit with reasonable care so as to ascertain whether such documents appear on their face to be in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit.  As between the Borrowers and any L/C Issuer, the Borrowers assume all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of any Letters of Credit by, the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, none of the L/C Issuers or any of their Related Parties shall have any responsibility for (and none of their rights or powers hereunder shall be affected or impaired by) (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any Person in connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged, (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, that may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason, (iii) failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit, provided that the L/C Issuer’s determination that documents presented under the Letter of Credit complied with the terms thereof did not constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct of the L/C Issuer (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment), (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any message, by mail, facsimile or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher, (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms, (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit, (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit, or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable L/C Issuer, including any Legal Requirement.  Without limiting the foregoing, any act taken or omitted to be taken by an L/C Issuer under or in connection with the Letters of Credit or any documents or certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not give rise to any liability on the part of such L/C Issuer to the Borrowers.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.2(k), the Borrowers shall retain any and all rights it may have against an L/C Issuer for any liability to the extent arising out of the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such L/C Issuer, as determined by a final, non‐appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
Section 2.3.    Applicable Interest Rates.  (a) Base Rate Loans.  Each Base Rate Loan made or maintained by a Lender shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual days elapsed) in U.S. Dollars on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is advanced or created by conversion from a Eurodollar Loan until, but excluding, the date of repayment thereof, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable

provided, however, that in the absence of acceleration, any increase in interest rates pursuant to this Section and any conversion of Loans into Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall be made at the election of the Administrative Agent, acting at the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders, with written notice to the Borrowers.  While any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, accrued interest shall be paid on demand of the Administrative Agent at the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders. 
(f)    Rate Determinations.  The Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations hereunder, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive and binding except in the case of manifest error.  
(g)    Interest Act (Canada).  For the purpose of complying with the Interest Act (Canada), it is expressly stated that, (i) where interest is calculated pursuant hereto at a rate based upon a 360‐day period (for the purposes of this Section the “first rate”), the yearly rate or percentage of interest to which the first rate is equivalent is the first rate multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 360; (ii) where interest is calculated pursuant hereto at a rate based on a 365 or 366 day period (for the purposes of this Section the “second rate”), the yearly rate or percentage of interest to which the second rate is equivalent is the second rate multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 365 or 366 (as may be applicable); and (iii) the parties hereto acknowledge that there is a material distinction between the nominal and effective rates of interest and that they are capable of making the calculations necessary to compare such rates and that the calculations herein are to be made using the nominal rate method and not on any basis that gives effect to the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest
Section 2.4.    Manner of Borrowing Loans and Designating Applicable Interest Rates    .  (a) Notice to the Administrative Agent.  The Borrowers’ Agent shall give notice to the Administrative Agent by no later than 12:00 Noon (Cincinnati time):  (i) at least 3 Business Days before the date on which the Borrowers’ Agent requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans; (ii) at least 2 Business Days before the date on which 

-55‐


Exhibit 10.1


the Borrowers’ Agent requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans; and (iii) on the date the Borrowers’ Agent requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans.  The Loans included in each Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the type of rate specified in such notice.  Thereafter, the Borrowers’ Agent may from time to time elect to change or continue the type of interest rate borne by each Borrowing or, subject to Section 2.5, a portion thereof, as follows:  (i) if such Borrowing is of Eurodollar Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrowers’ Agent may continue part or all of such Borrowing as Eurodollar Loans or convert part or all of such Borrowing into Base Rate Loans, or (ii) if such Borrowing is of Base Rate Loans, on any Business Day, the Borrowers may convert all or part of such Borrowing into Eurodollar Loans for an Interest Period or Interest Periods specified by the Borrowers’ Agent, (iii) if such Borrowing is of Canadian Prime Rate Loans, on any Business Day, the Borrowers may convert all or part of such Borrowing into Canadian CDOR Loans for an Interest Period or Interest Periods specified by the Borrowers’ Agent, or (iv) if such Borrowing is of Canadian CDOR Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrowers’ Agent may continue part or all of such Borrowing as Canadian CDOR Loans or convert part or all of such Borrowing into Canadian Prime Rate Loans.  The Borrowers’ Agent shall give all such notices requesting the advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing to the Administrative Agent by email (with a pdf copy of the applicable fully-executed notice), telephone, or telecopy (which notice shall be irrevocable once given and, if by telephone, shall be promptly confirmed in writing in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (Notice of Borrowing) or Exhibit C (Notice of Continuation/Conversion), as applicable, or in such other form acceptable to the Administrative Agent.  Notice of (i) the continuation of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans for an additional Interest Period, (ii) the conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Loans, or (iii) the conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans into Canadian CDOR Loans must be given, in each instance, by no later than 12:00 Noon (Cincinnati time) at least 3 Business Days before the date of the requested continuation or conversion.  Notice of (i) the conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of Canadian CDOR Loans on any day other than the last day of its Interest Period into Canadian Prime Rate Loans, and (ii) the conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans on any day other than the last day of its Interest Period into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans must be given, in each instance, by no later than 12:00 Noon (Cincinnati time) at least 2 Business Days before the date of the requested conversion.  All notices concerning the advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing shall specify the date of the requested advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of the requested Borrowing to be advanced, continued or converted, the type of Loans to comprise such new, continued or converted Borrowing and, if such Borrowing is to be comprised of Eurodollar Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto.  The Borrowers agree that the Administrative Agent may rely on any such email, telephonic or telecopy notice given by any 

-56‐


Exhibit 10.1


person the Administrative Agent in good faith believes is an Authorized Representative without the necessity of independent investigation (the Borrowers hereby indemnify the Administrative Agent from any liability or loss ensuing from such reliance) and, in the event any such notice by telephone conflicts with any written confirmation, such telephonic notice shall govern if the Administrative Agent has acted in reliance thereon.
(b)    Notice to the Lenders.  The Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic or telecopy, or e-mail notice to each Lender of any notice from the Borrowers’ Agent received pursuant to Section 2.4(a) above and, if such notice requests the Lenders to make Eurodollar Loans, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Borrowers’ Agent and each Lender of the interest rate applicable thereto promptly after the Administrative Agent has made such determination and, if such Borrowing is denominated in Canadian Dollars, of the Original Dollar Amount thereof.
(c)    Borrower’s Failure to Notify; Automatic Continuations and Conversions; Automatic Extensions of Revolving Loans if Reimbursement Obligations Not Repaid.  If the Borrowers’ Agent fails to give proper notice of the continuation or conversion of any outstanding Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans before the last day of its then current Interest Period within the period required by Section 2.4(a) or, whether or not such notice has been given, one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 3.1 for the continuation or conversion of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans, as applicable, would not be satisfied, and such Borrowing is not prepaid in accordance with Section 2.7(a), any such Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans shall automatically be converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and any such Borrowing of Canadian CDOR Loans shall automatically be converted into a Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as applicable.  In the event the Borrowers’ Agent fails to give notice pursuant to Section 2.4(a) of a Borrowing equal to the amount of a Reimbursement Obligation and has not notified the Administrative Agent by 1:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time) on the day such Reimbursement Obligation becomes due that it intends to repay such Reimbursement Obligation through funds not borrowed under this Agreement, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested (i) with respect to Reimbursement Obligations arising from any U.S. Letter of Credit, a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans under the U.S. Revolving Credit (or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, under the U.S. Swing Line) or (ii) with respect to Reimbursement Obligations in Canadian Dollars arising from any Canadian Letter of Credit, a Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans under the Canadian Revolving Credit and with respect to Reimbursement Obligations in U.S. Dollars arising from any Canadian Letter of Credit, a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans under the Canadian Revolving Credit (or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, in each such event, under the Canadian Swing Line), in any event on such day in the amount of the Reimbursement Obligation then due, which such Borrowing, if otherwise available hereunder, shall be applied to pay the Reimbursement Obligation then due.

Exhibit 10.1


(d)    Disbursement of Loans.  Not later than 2:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time) on the date of any requested advance of a new Borrowing, subject to Section 2, each Lender shall make available its Loan comprising part of such Borrowing in funds immediately available (i) in the case of Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, at the principal office of the Administrative Agent in Cincinnati, Ohio, and (ii) in the case of Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, at the principal office of the Administrative Agent in Cincinnati, Ohio in such funds as are then customary for the settlement of international transactions in such currency and no later than such local time as is necessary for such funds to be received and transferred to the Borrowers for same day value on the date of the Borrowing.  The Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of each new Borrowing available to the Borrowers at the Administrative Agent’s principal office in Cincinnati, Ohio.  
(e)    Administrative Agent Reliance on Lender Funding.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, by 1:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time) on) the date on which such Lender is scheduled to make available to the Administrative Agent of its share of a Borrowing (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) that such Lender does not intend to make such share available, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with Section 2.4(d) when due and the Administrative Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may (but shall not be required to) make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount in the applicable currency (each such advance, a “Disproportionate Advance”) and, if any Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall, on demand, make available to the Administrative Agent the Disproportionate Advance attributable to such Lender together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such Disproportionate Advance was made available to the Borrowers and ending on (but excluding) the date such Lender makes available such Disproportionate Advance to the Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to:  (i) from the date the Disproportionate Advance was made by the Administrative Agent to the date 2 Business Days after payment by such Lender is due hereunder, (x) with respect to a Loan denominated in U.S. Dollars, the greater of, for each such day, (1) the Federal Funds Rate and (2) an overnight rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, or (y) with respect to a Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars, the CDOR Rate for each such day, as determined by the Administrative Agent, plus any standard administrative or processing fees charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with such Lender’s non‐payment and (ii) from the date 2 Business Days after the date such share of the applicable Borrowing is due from such Lender to the date such payment is made by such Lender, with respect to a Loan denominated in U.S. Dollars, the Base Rate in effect for each such day and, with respect to a Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars, the Canadian Prime Rate in effect on such day.  If such amount is not received from such Lender by the Administrative Agent immediately upon demand, the Borrowers will, promptly following written demand from the Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the 

-58‐


Exhibit 10.1


proceeds of the Loan attributable to such Disproportionate Advance with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan, but without such payment being considered a payment or prepayment of a Loan under Section 8.1 so that the Borrowers will have no liability under such Section with respect to such payment.  If the Borrowers and such Lender shall pay interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrowers the amount of such interest paid by the Borrowers for such period.  If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.  Any payment by the Borrowers under this Section shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrowers may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 
Section 2.5.    Minimum Borrowing Amounts; Maximum Eurodollar Loans.  Each Borrowing of Base Rate Loans advanced under the U.S. Revolving Credit or the Canadian Revolving Credit shall be in an amount not less than U.S. $300,000.  Each Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans advanced under the Canadian Revolving Credit shall be in an amount not less than Cdn. $300,000.   Each Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans advanced, continued or converted under the U.S. Revolving Credit or the Canadian Revolving Credit shall be in an amount equal to U.S. $1,000,000 or such greater amount that is an integral multiple of U.S. $100,000.  Each Borrowing of Canadian CDOR Loans advanced, continued or converted under the Canadian Revolving Credit shall be in an amount equal to Cdn. $1,000,000 or such greater amount that is an integral multiple of Cdn. $100,000.  Without the Administrative Agent’s consent, there shall not be more than seven (7) Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans and Canadian CDOR Loans, in the aggregate, outstanding at any one time.  
Section 2.6.    Maturity of Loans.  Each Revolving Loan and each Swing Loan, both for principal and interest not sooner paid, shall mature and become due and payable by the Borrowers on the Termination Date.
Section 2.7.    Prepayments.      (a) Voluntary.  The Borrowers may prepay without premium or penalty (except as set forth in Section 8.1 below) and in whole or in part any Borrowing of (i) Eurodollar Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans at any time upon 3 Business Days prior notice by the Borrowers’ Agent to the Administrative Agent or, (ii) in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans, or Swing Loans bearing interest at the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate, notice delivered by the Borrowers’ Agent to the Administrative Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (Cincinnati time) on the date of prepayment (or, in any case, such shorter time period then agreed to by the Administrative Agent), such prepayment to be made by the payment of the principal amount to be prepaid and, in the case of any Eurodollar Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans, accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for prepayment plus any amounts due the Lenders under Section 8.1; provided, however, the Borrowers may not partially repay a Borrowing (i) if such Borrowing is of

Exhibit 10.1


Base Rate Loans (other than a Swing Loan), in a principal amount less than U.S. $500,000, (ii) if such Borrowing is of Eurodollar Loans, in a principal amount less than U.S. $1,000,000, (iii) if such Borrowing is of Canadian Prime Rate Loans (other than a Swing Loan), in an amount not less than Cdn. $500,000, (iv) if such Borrowing is of Canadian CDOR Loans, in a principal amount less than Cdn. $1,000,000 and (v) in each case, unless it is in an amount such that the minimum amount required for a Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.5 remains outstanding.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise each Lender of any notice of prepayment by the Borrowers. 
(b)    Mandatory.  
(i)    If any Borrower or any Subsidiary shall at any time or from time to time make or agree to make a Disposition or shall suffer an Event of Loss resulting in Net Cash Proceeds in excess of U.S. $1,000,000 individually or on a cumulative basis in any fiscal year of the Borrowers, then (x) the Borrowers shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such proposed Disposition or Event of Loss (including the amount of the estimated Net Cash Proceeds to be received by such Borrower or such Subsidiary in respect thereof) and (y) promptly upon receipt by such Borrower or such Subsidiary of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Disposition or such Event of Loss, the Borrowers shall prepay the Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the amount of all such Net Cash Proceeds in excess of U.S. $1,000,000 individually or on a cumulative basis in any fiscal year of the Borrowers; provided that in the case of each Disposition and Event of Loss, if the Borrowers state in its notice of such event that the applicable Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary intends to invest or reinvest, as applicable, within 365 days of the applicable Disposition or receipt of Net Cash Proceeds from an Event of Loss, the Net Cash Proceeds thereof in similar like‐kind assets, then so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, the Borrowers shall not be required to make a mandatory prepayment under this Section in respect of such Net Cash Proceeds to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds are actually invested or reinvested as described in the Borrowers’ notice within such 365‐day period.  Promptly after the end of such 365‐day period, the Borrowers shall notify the Administrative Agent whether such Borrower or such Subsidiary has invested or reinvested such Net Cash Proceeds as described in the Borrowers’ notice, and to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds have not been so invested or reinvested, the Borrowers shall promptly prepay the Obligations in the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds in excess of U.S. $1,000,000 individually or on a cumulative basis in any fiscal year of the Borrowers not so invested or reinvested.  The amount of each such prepayment shall be applied then to the U.S. Revolving Loans and the Canadian Revolving Loans on a ratable basis (in accordance with the outstanding principal amounts thereof) until all outstanding Revolving Loans are paid in full and then to the U.S. Swing Loans and the Canadian Swing Loans on a ratable basis (in accordance with the outstanding principal amounts thereof).

Exhibit 10.1


(ii)    If after the Effective Date any Borrower or any Subsidiary shall issue any new equity securities (other than equity securities issued to any director, manager, or employee as part of an employee incentive program, equity securities issued to the seller of an Acquired Business in connection with an Acquisition permitted by the terms hereof, if any, and, so long as no Event of Default exists at the time of any such issue, any Designated Canadian Equity Issuances, if any) or incur or assume any Indebtedness other than that permitted by Section 6.11, the Borrowers shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the estimated Net Cash Proceeds of such issuance, incurrence or assumption to be received by or for the account of such Borrower or such Subsidiary in respect thereof.  Promptly upon receipt by such Borrower or such Subsidiary of Net Cash Proceeds of such issuance, incurrence or assumption the Borrowers shall prepay the Obligations in the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds.  The amount of each such prepayment shall be applied first to the U.S. Revolving Loans and Canadian Revolving Loans on a ratable basis (in accordance with the outstanding principal amounts thereof) until all outstanding Revolving Loans are paid in full and then to the U.S. Swing Loans and Canadian Swing Loans on a ratable basis (in accordance with the outstanding principal amounts thereof).  The Borrowers acknowledge that their performance hereunder shall not limit the rights and remedies of the Lenders for any breach of Section 6.11 or any other terms of this Agreement.
(iii)    The Borrowers shall, on each date the U.S. Commitments are reduced pursuant to Section 2.9, prepay the U.S. Revolving Loans and, if necessary, U.S. Swing Loans and, if necessary, in accordance with Section 4.5, Cash Collateralize 103% of the then-outstanding U.S. L/C Obligations by the amount, if any, necessary to reduce the sum of the aggregate principal amount of U.S. Revolving Loans, U.S. Swing Loans and U.S. L/C Obligations then outstanding to the amount to which the Commitments have been so reduced; and the Borrowers shall, on each date the Canadian Commitments are reduced pursuant to Section 2.9, prepay the Canadian Revolving Loans and, if necessary, Canadian Swing Loans and, if necessary, in accordance with Section 4.5, Cash Collateralize 103% of the then-outstanding Canadian  L/C Obligations by the amount, if any, necessary to reduce the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Canadian Revolving Loans, Canadian Swing Loans and Canadian L/C Obligations then outstanding to the amount to which the Commitments have been so reduced; and
(iv)    Unless the Borrowers otherwise direct, prepayments of Loans under this Section 2.7(b) shall be applied first to Borrowings of Base Rate Loans and Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as the case may be, until payment in full thereof with any balance applied to Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans and Canadian CDOR Loans, as the case may be, in the order in which their Interest Periods expire.  Each prepayment of Loans under this Section 2.7(b) shall be made by the payment of the principal amount to be prepaid and, in the case of 

-61‐


Exhibit 10.1


any Eurodollar Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans, accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment together with any amounts due the Lenders under Section 8.1.  Each prefunding of L/C Obligations shall be made in accordance with Section 4.5.  
(c)    The Administrative Agent will promptly advise each Lender of any notice of prepayment it receives from the Borrowers, and in the case of any partial prepayment, such prepayment shall be applied to the remaining amortization payments on the relevant Loans in the inverse order of maturity. 
Section 2.8.    Place and Application of Payments.  (a) General Terms.  All payments of principal of and interest on the Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations, and of all other Obligations payable by the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall be made by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent (i) in the case of Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars by no later than 1:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time) on the due date thereof at the office of the Administrative Agent in Cincinnati, Ohio (or such other location as the Administrative Agent may designate to the Borrowers in writing) for the benefit of the Lender or Lenders entitled thereto, and (ii) in the case of Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, to the Administrative Agent by no later than 1:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time) at the place of payment to such office as the Administrative Agent has previously specified in a notice to the Borrowers, for the benefit of the Lender or Lenders entitled thereto.  Any payments received after such time shall be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent on the next Business Day.  All such payments shall be made in U.S. Dollars or Canadian Dollars, as applicable, in immediately available funds at the place of payment, in each case without set‐off or counterclaim.  The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest on Loans and on Reimbursement Obligations in which the Lenders have purchased Participating Interests ratably to the Lenders and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(b)    Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Administrative Agent.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or an L/C Issuer hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due.  In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to: (i) from the date the 

-62‐


Exhibit 10.1


distribution was made to the date 2 Business Days after payment by such Lender is due hereunder, (x) if such scheduled payment was to be made in U.S. Dollars, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (y) if such scheduled payment was to be made in Canadian Dollars, the CDOR Rate for each such day and (ii) from the date 2 Business Days after the date such payment is due from such Lender to the date such payment is made by such Lender, (x) if such scheduled payment was to be made in U.S. Dollars, the Base Rate in effect for each such day and (y) if such scheduled payment was to be made in Canadian Dollars, the Canadian Prime Rate in effect for each such day.
(c)    Application of Collateral Proceeds Before Default.  Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, subject to Section 2.7(b), all payments and collections received in respect of the Obligations and all proceeds of Collateral shall (subject to the other terms of this Agreement) be applied by the Administrative Agent against the outstanding Obligations as follows:
(i)    first, to any outstanding fees, charges, and expenses then due to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders; 
(ii)    second, to outstanding interest charges then due in respect of the Obligations;
(iii)    third, to the outstanding principal balance of the U.S. Swing Loans and to the outstanding principal balance of the Canadian Swing Loans on a ratable basis (in accordance with the outstanding principal amounts thereof) until all outstanding Swing Loans are paid in full;

(v)    finally, to be made available to the Borrowers or whoever else may be lawfully entitled thereto. 
(d)    Application of Collateral Proceeds after Default.  Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (x) pursuant to the exercise of remedies under Sections 7.2 and 7.3 or (y) after written instruction by the Required Lenders after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, all payments and collections received in respect of the Obligations and all 

-63‐


Exhibit 10.1


proceeds of the Collateral received, in each instance, by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders shall be remitted to the Administrative Agent and distributed as follows:
(i)    first, to the payment of any outstanding costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, and any security trustee therefor, in monitoring, verifying, protecting, preserving or enforcing the Liens on the Collateral, in protecting, preserving or enforcing rights under the Loan Documents, which the Borrowers have agreed to pay the Administrative Agent under Section 10.12 (such funds to be retained by the Administrative Agent for its own account unless it has previously been reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Lenders, in which event such amounts shall be remitted to the Lenders to reimburse them for payments theretofore made to the Administrative Agent);
(ii)    second, to the payment of any outstanding interest and fees due under the Loan Documents to be allocated pro rata in accordance with the aggregate unpaid amounts owing to each holder thereof;
(iii)    third, to the payment of principal on the U.S. Loans and Canadian Loans on a ratable basis (in accordance with the outstanding principal amounts thereof), unpaid U.S. Reimbursement Obligations and Canadian Reimbursement Obligations on a ratable basis (in accordance with the outstanding principal amounts thereof), together with Cash Collateral for any outstanding U.S. L/C Obligations and Canadian L/C Obligations on a ratable basis pursuant to Section 7.4 (until the Administrative Agent is holding Cash Collateral equal to 103% of the then outstanding amount of all such L/C Obligations), Bank Product Liability, and Hedging Liability, the aggregate amount paid to, or held as collateral security for, the Lenders and, in the case of Hedging Liability, their Affiliates to be allocated pro rata in accordance with the aggregate unpaid amounts owing to each holder thereof;

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, no proceeds of any Collateral or payment made under or in respect of any Guaranty received from any person who is not an “eligible contract participant” as defined in the Commodities Exchange Act shall be applied to the payment of any Hedging Liability, but appropriate adjustments shall be made with respect to 

-64‐


Exhibit 10.1


payments from the Borrowers and the Guarantors to preserve the allocation to Hedging Liability otherwise set forth in this Section.
Section 2.9.    Voluntary Commitment Terminations.  The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time, upon 3 Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period of time agreed to by the Administrative Agent), to terminate the Commitments in whole or in part, any partial termination to be (a) in an amount not less than U.S. $1,000,000 and (b) allocated ratably among the Lenders in proportion to their respective Percentages, provided that the U.S. Commitments may not be reduced to an amount less than the sum of the aggregate principal amount of U.S. Revolving Loans, U.S. Swing Loans and U.S. L/C Obligations then outstanding and the Canadian Commitments may not be reduced to an amount less than the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Canadian Revolving Loans, Canadian Swing Loans and Canadian L/C Obligations then outstanding.  Any termination of the U.S. Commitments below the U.S. L/C Sublimit then in effect shall reduce the U.S. L/C Sublimit by a like amount.  Any termination of the U.S. Commitments below the U.S. Swing Line Sublimit then in effect shall reduce the U.S. Swing Line Sublimit by a like amount.  Any termination of the Canadian Commitments below the Canadian L/C Sublimit then in effect shall reduce the Canadian L/C Sublimit by a like amount.  Any termination of the Canadian Commitments below the Canadian Swing Line Sublimit then in effect shall reduce the Canadian Swing Line Sublimit by a like amount.  The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to each Lender of any such termination of the Commitments.  Any termination of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.9 may not be reinstated.
Section 2.10.    Swing Loans.  (a) Generally.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, as part of the Revolving Credit, the Administrative Agent agrees to make loans (a) in U.S. Dollars to the Borrowers under the U.S. Swing Line (individually a “U.S. Swing Loan” and collectively the “U.S. Swing Loans”) which shall not in the aggregate at any time outstanding exceed the U.S. Swing Line Sublimit and (b) in U.S. Dollars or Canadian Dollars to the Borrowers under the Canadian Swing Line (individually a “Canadian Swing Loan” and collectively the “Canadian Swing Loans”; the Canadian Swing Loans, together with the U.S. Swing Loans, collectively, the “Swing Loans”) with a U.S. Dollar Equivalent which shall not in the aggregate at any time outstanding exceed the Canadian Swing Line Sublimit; provided, however, the sum of the aggregate principal amount of U.S. Revolving Loans, U.S. Swing Loans and U.S. L/C Obligations at any time outstanding shall not exceed the sum of all U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments in effect at such time; and the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Canadian Revolving Loans, Canadian Swing Loans and Canadian L/C Obligations at any time outstanding shall not exceed the sum of all Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments in effect at such time.  The Swing Loans may be availed of by the Borrowers from time to time and borrowings thereunder may be repaid and used again during the period ending on the Termination Date; provided that each Swing Loan matures 

-65‐


Exhibit 10.1


and is due and payable on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto.  Each Swing Loan advanced in U.S. Dollars shall be in a minimum amount of U.S. $250,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of U.S. $100,000.  Each Swing Loan advanced in Canadian Dollars shall be in a minimum amount of Cdn. $250,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of Cdn. $100,000.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to make any Swing Loan if any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder unless the Borrowers or such Defaulting Lender has provided Cash Collateral in compliance with Section 4.5 sufficient to eliminate the Swing Line Lender’s risk with respect to such Defaulting Lender.
(b)    Interest on Swing Loans.  Each Swing Loan advanced in U.S. Dollars shall bear interest in U. S. Dollars until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to, at the option of the Borrowers, (i) the sum of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans under the U.S. Revolving Credit or the Canadian Revolving Credit as from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days elapsed), or (ii) the Swing Loan Lender’s Quoted Rate therefore (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed).  Each Swing Loan advanced in Canadian Dollars shall bear interest in Canadian Dollars until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to, at the option of the Borrowers, (i) the sum of the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Canadian Prime Rate Loans under the Canadian Revolving Credit as from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days elapsed), or (ii) the Swing Loan Lender’s Quoted Rate therefore (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed).

(c)    Requests for Swing Loans.  The Borrowers’ Agent shall give the Swing Line Lender prior notice (which may be written or oral), no later than 1:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time) on the date upon which the Borrowers’ Agent requests that any Swing Loan be made, of the amount and date of such Swing Loan, the Interest Period requested therefore, and, with respect to Canadian Swing Loans, the requested currency of Canadian Dollars or U.S. Dollars.  Within 30 minutes after receiving such notice, the Swing Line Lender shall in its discretion quote an interest rate to the Borrowers’ Agent at which the Swing Line Lender would be willing to make such Swing Loan available to the Borrowers for the Interest Period so requested (the rate so quoted for a given Interest Period being herein referred to as “Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate”).  The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the interest rate quote is given for immediate and irrevocable acceptance.  If the Borrowers do not so immediately accept the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate for the full amount requested by the Borrowers’ Agent for such Swing Loan, the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate shall be deemed immediately withdrawn and any such Swing Loan advanced in U.S. Dollars

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the proceeds of any such Swing Loan advanced in U.S. Dollars shall be made available to the Borrowers on the date so requested at the offices of the Swing Line Lender in Cincinnati, Ohio, and the proceeds of such Canadian Swing Loan advanced in Canadian Dollars shall be made available to the Borrowers on the date so requested at the offices of the Swing Line Lender in Cincinnati, Ohio.  Anything contained in the foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding (i) the obligation of the Swing Line Lender to make Swing Loans shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (ii) the Swing Line Lender shall not be obligated to make more than one Swing Loan during any one day.
(d)    Refunding of Swing Loans.  In its sole and absolute discretion, the Administrative Agent may at any time, at the direction of the Swing Line Lender, on behalf of the Borrowers, (which the Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to act on their behalf for such purpose) and with notice to the Borrowers, request (i) each U.S. Lender to make a U.S. Revolving Loan in the form of a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s U.S. Revolver Percentage of the amount of the U.S. Swing Loans outstanding on the date such notice is given, and (ii) each Canadian Lender to make a Canadian Revolving Loan in the form of (A) a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Canadian Lender’s Canadian Revolver Percentage of the amount of the Canadian Swing Loans outstanding in U.S. Dollars on the date such notice is given and (B) a Canadian Prime Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Canadian Lender’s Canadian Revolver Percentage of the amount of the Canadian Swing Loans outstanding in Canadian Dollars on the date such notice is given.  Unless an Event of Default described in Section 7.1(j) or 7.1(k) exists with respect to any Borrower, regardless of the existence of any other Event of Default, each Lender shall make the proceeds of its requested Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, with respect to Swing Loans in U.S. Dollars or Canadian Dollars, at the Administrative Agent’s principal office in Cincinnati, Ohio before 12:00 Noon (Cincinnati time) two Business Days following the day such notice is given. The proceeds of such Borrowing of U.S. Revolving Loans shall be immediately applied to repay the outstanding U.S. Swing Loans, and the proceeds of such Borrowing of Canadian Revolving Loans shall be immediately applied to repay the outstanding Canadian Swing Loans
(e)    Participations.  If any Lender refuses or otherwise fails to make a Revolving Loan when requested by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.10(d) above (because an Event of Default described in Section 7.1(j) or 7.1(k) exists with respect to the Borrowers or otherwise), such Lender will, by the time and in the manner such Revolving Loan was to have been funded to the Administrative Agent, purchase from the Administrative Agent an undivided participating 

-67‐


Exhibit 10.1


interest in the outstanding Swing Loans in an amount equal to its Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Swing Loans that were to have been repaid with such Revolving Loans; provided that the foregoing purchases shall be deemed made hereunder without any further action by such Lender or the Administrative Agent.  Each Lender that so purchases a participation in a Swing Loan shall thereafter be entitled to receive its Percentage of each payment of principal received on the Swing Loan and of interest received thereon accruing from the date such Lender funded to the Administrative Agent its participation in such Loan.  The several obligations of the Lenders under this Section shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances whatsoever and shall not be subject to any set‐off, counterclaim or defense to payment which any Lender may have or have had against any Borrower, any other Lender or any other Person whatever.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such obligations shall not be affected by any Default or Event of Default or by any reduction or termination of the Commitment of any Lender, and each payment made by a Lender under this Section shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.
(f)    Increases in the U.S. Swing Line Sublimit.  The U.S. Swing Line Sublimit may be increased pursuant to Section 2.1(b).

(b)    The Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the type thereof and, with respect to Eurodollar Loans, Canadian CDOR Loans and Swing Loans, the Interest Period with respect thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrowers and each Lender’s share thereof.
(c)    The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) and (b) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms.
(d)    Any Lender may request that its Loans be evidenced by a promissory note or notes in the forms of Exhibit D‐1 (in the case of its U.S. Revolving Loans and referred to herein as a “U.S. Revolving Note”), D-2 (in the case of its Canadian Revolving Loans and referred to herein as a 

-68‐

In such event, the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender in the amount of the relevant Commitment or Swing Line Sublimit, as applicable.  Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note or Notes and interest thereon shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 10.9) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the order of the payee named therein or any assignee pursuant to Section 10.9, except to the extent that any such Lender or assignee subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in subsections (a) and (b) above.
Section 2.12.    Fees.  (a) Commitment Fee.  The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders according to their Percentages a commitment fee at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed) on the average daily Unused Commitments; provided however, that no commitment fee shall accrue to the Unused Commitment of a Defaulting Lender, or be payable for the benefit of such Lender, so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender.  Such commitment fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the second Business Day of each January, April, July, and October in each year (commencing on the first such date occurring after the Effective Date) and on the Termination Date, unless the Commitments are terminated in whole on an earlier date, in which event the commitment fee for the period to the date of such termination in whole shall be paid on the date of such termination.  
(b)    Letter of Credit Fees.  On the date of issuance or extension, or increase in the amount, of any Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.2, the Borrowers shall pay to the relevant L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee equal to  (i) 0.125% of the face amount of (or of the increase in the face amount of) such Letter of Credit with respect to Letters of Credit issued by Fifth Third Bank as an L/C Issuer and (ii) such amount as any Borrower and any other L/C Issuer hereunder agree with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such other L/C Issuer.

-69‐


Exhibit 10.1


request or with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided further, that no letter of credit fee shall accrue to the Percentage of a Defaulting Lender, or be payable for the benefit of such Lender, so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender.  In addition, the Borrowers shall pay to each L/C Issuer for its own account such L/C Issuer’s standard issuance, drawing, negotiation, amendment, transfer and other administrative fees for each Letter of Credit.  Such standard fees referred to in the preceding sentence may be established by each L/C Issuer from time to time. 
(c)    Administrative Agent Fees.  The Administrative Agent shall receive, for its own use and benefit, the fees agreed to between the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers’ Agent in that certain fee letter dated May 14, 2013, or as otherwise agreed to in writing between the Borrowers’ Agent and the Administrative Agent.

The Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to charge any Borrower’s deposit accounts maintained with the Administrative Agent for the amounts from time to time necessary to pay any then due Obligations; provided that the Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the Administrative Agent shall not be under an obligation to do so and the Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability to the Borrowers or any other Person for the Administrative Agent’s failure to do so.

If and when requested by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent shall invest funds held in the Collateral Account from time to time in direct obligations of, or obligations the principal of and interest on which are unconditionally guaranteed by, the United States of America with a remaining maturity of one year or less, provided that the Administrative Agent is irrevocably authorized to sell investments held in the Collateral Account when and as required to make payments out of the Collateral Account for application to amounts due and owing from the Borrowers to any L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders.
The Borrowers, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority 

-78‐


Exhibit 10.1


security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in the Collateral Account, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to clause (b) below.  If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided (other than Permitted Liens), or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than required hereunder, including any applicable Fronting Exposure, the Borrowers or the relevant Lender, if applicable, will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.
(b)    Application.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 4.5 or Section 2.2(b), Section 2.7(b), Section 7.4 or Section 8.7, or any other Section hereof in respect of Letters of Credit or Swing Loans, shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific Reimbursement Obligations, Swing Loans, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.
(c)    Release.  (i) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure shall be released promptly following the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii), if such Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) is not provided in connection with a Defaulting Lender, Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) shall be released promptly after (A) the Borrowers shall have made payment of all such Obligations giving rise to the required Cash Collateral, (B) all relevant preference or other disgorgement periods relating to the receipt of such payments have passed, and (C) no Letters of Credit, Commitments, Loans or other Obligations remain outstanding hereunder, or (iii) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) shall be released promptly following the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, that (x) Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of the Borrowers shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default (and following application as provided in this Section 4.5 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 2.8), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the applicable L/C Issuer or Administrative Agent, as applicable, may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Obligations hereunder, including Fronting Exposure.

	SECTION 5.
	REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.


Each Borrower represents and warrants to each Lender, the Administrative Agent, and each L/C Issuer as follows:
Section 5.1.    Organization and Qualification    .  Each Borrower and each Guarantor (a) is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) is in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (c) has the power and authority to own its property and to transact the business in which it is engaged and proposes to engage and (d) is duly qualified and in good standing in each jurisdiction where the ownership, leasing or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except, in each case of clauses (a), (b) (other than with respect to each Borrower where failure to maintain such good standing is not curable or results in the dissolution of such Borrower), (c) and (d), where the same could not be reasonably expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
Section 5.2.    Authority and Enforceability.  Each Borrower has the power and authority to enter into this Agreement, the other Loan Documents executed by it and the Transfer Documents executed by it, to make the borrowings herein provided for, to issue its Notes (if any), to grant to the Administrative Agent the Liens described in the Collateral Documents executed by such Borrower, and to perform all of its obligations hereunder, under the other Loan Documents executed by it and under the Transfer Documents executed by it.  Each Guarantor has the power and authority to enter into the Loan Documents executed by it and the Transfer Documents executed by it, to guarantee the Obligations, Hedging Liability, and Bank Product Liability, to grant to the Administrative Agent the Liens described in the Collateral Documents executed by such Person, and to perform all of its obligations under the Loan Documents executed by it and under the Transfer Documents executed by it.  The Loan Documents delivered by each Borrower and by each Guarantor have been duly authorized by proper corporate and/or other organizational proceedings, executed, and delivered by such Person and constitute valid and binding obligations of such Person enforceable against it in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws effecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity (regardless of whether the application of such principles is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law); and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents do not, nor does the performance or observance by any Borrower or any Guarantor of any of the matters and things herein or therein provided for, (a) violate any provision of law or any judgment, injunction, order or decree binding upon any Borrower or any Guarantor or any provision of the Organization Documents of any Borrower or any Guarantor, (b) violate any covenant, indenture or agreement of or affecting any Borrower or any Guarantor or any of its Property, in each case where such violation, contravention or default, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a 

-80‐


Exhibit 10.1


Material Adverse Effect or (c) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any Property of any Borrower or any Guarantor other than the Liens granted in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Collateral Documents (other than Permitted Liens).
Section 5.3.    Financial Reports.  (a) The Audited Financial Statements fairly and adequately present the consolidated financial condition of the MLP  and the MLP’s Predecessor as at said dates and the consolidated results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended in conformity with GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the period covered thereby.  As of any date after the Effective Date, the audited consolidated financial statements of the MLP most recently furnished to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.1, fairly and adequately present the consolidated financial condition of the MLP as at said dates and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the periods then ended in conformity with GAAP applied on a consistent basis.  Neither any Borrower nor any Subsidiary has contingent liabilities or judgments, orders or injunctions against it that are material to it other than as indicated on such financial statements or, with respect to future periods, on the financial statements furnished pursuant to Section 6.1.  
(b)    (i) The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Consolidated Group and the unaudited consolidated statements of income or operations of the Consolidated Group for the first fiscal quarter ending on March 31, 2013 and furnished to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.1 of the Prior Credit Agreement (x) were prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the period covered thereby, and (y) fairly present the financial condition of the Consolidated Group as of the date thereof and their results of operations for the period covered thereby, subject to the absence of footnotes and to normal year-end audit adjustments. 
Section 5.4.    No Material Adverse Change.  Since December 31, 2012, there has been no event or circumstance, either individually or in the aggregate, that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Section 5.5.    Litigation and Other Controversies.  There is no litigation, arbitration or governmental proceeding (including before FERC or any equivalent state regulatory authority) pending or, to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and each Subsidiary, threatened against the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Section 5.6.    True and Complete Disclosure.  All information furnished by or on behalf of the General Partner, any Borrower, or any Subsidiary in writing to the Administrative Agent or any Lender for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement, or any transaction contemplated herein, is true and accurate in all material respects and not incomplete by omitting to state any fact necessary 

-81‐


Exhibit 10.1


to make such information (taken as a whole) not misleading in light of the circumstances under which such information was provided; provided that, with respect to projected financial information furnished by or on behalf of the General Partner (in its capacity as general partner of the MLP), any Borrower or any Subsidiary, the Borrowers only represent and warrant that such information is prepared in good faith based upon assumptions and estimates believed to be reasonable at the time of preparation and at the time of delivery. 
Section 5.7.    Use of Proceeds; Margin Stock    .  All proceeds of the Loans shall be used by the Borrowers for (a) working capital purposes, (b) Permitted Acquisitions and expenses incurred in connection therewith, (c) general corporate purposes, including the making of Capital Expenditures, and (d) the making of Restricted Payments in compliance with Section 6.15.  No part of the proceeds of any Loan or other extension of credit hereunder will be used by any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof to purchase or carry any margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock.  Neither the making of any Loan or other extension of credit hereunder nor the use of the proceeds thereof will violate or be inconsistent with the provisions of Regulations D, T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any successor to all or any portion of such regulations.  Margin Stock (as defined above) constitutes less than 25% of the value of those assets of the MLP and its Subsidiaries that are subject to any limitation on sale, pledge or other restriction hereunder.
Section 5.8.    Taxes.  The General Partner, each Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be timely filed all tax returns required to be filed by such Borrower and/or any of its Subsidiaries, except where failure to so file could not be reasonably expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.  Each Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has paid all Taxes payable by it other than (a) Taxes which are not delinquent, (b) Taxes that are being contested in good faith and by proper legal proceedings and as to which appropriate reserves have been provided for in accordance with GAAP and no Lien resulting therefrom attaches to any of its Property (other than any Permitted Liens), or (c) to the extent that failure to pay such Taxes could not reasonably be expected to cause a Lien to attach to any material portion of the Property of the MLP and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.  
Section 5.9.    ERISA; Canadian Pension Plans.  Except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect, with respect to any Pension Plan each Borrower and each other member of its Controlled Group has fulfilled its obligations under the minimum funding standards of, and is in compliance with, ERISA and the Code to the extent applicable to it and, other than a liability for premiums under Section 4007 of ERISA, has not incurred any liability to the PBGC or a Pension Plan or Multiemployer Plan under Title IV of ERISA.  Except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect, each Borrower and its Subsidiaries have no contingent liabilities with respect to any post‐retirement 

-82‐


Exhibit 10.1


benefits under a Welfare Plan, other than liability for continuation coverage described in Part  6 of Subtitle B of Title  I of ERISA or Section 4980B of the Code (“Post-Retirement Benefit Plan”). As of the Effective Date, neither the MLP, nor any Borrower, nor any such Subsidiary provides or has any obligations in respect of a Canadian Pension Plan.
(b)    The Canadian Pension Plans, if applicable, are duly registered under the Income Tax Act (Canada) and all other applicable laws which require registration and no event has occurred which is reasonably likely to cause the loss of such registered status, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  All material obligations (including fiduciary, funding, investment and administration obligations) required to be performed in connection with the Canadian Pension Plans and Canadian Benefit Plans and any funding agreements therefor have been performed in a timely fashion, and for greater certainty, no contribution failure has occurred thereunder, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  To the knowledge of the General Partner, the Borrowers, and the Subsidiaries there have been no improper withdrawals or applications of the assets of the Canadian Pension Plans or the Canadian Benefit Plans by the General Partner, any Borrower, or any Subsidiary, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  To the knowledge of the General Partner, the Borrowers, and the Subsidiaries, there are no material outstanding disputes or proceedings concerning the assets of the Canadian Pension Plans or the Canadian Benefit Plans and no steps have been taken to terminate any Canadian Pension Plan or Canadian Benefit Plan and no circumstances exist which would be reasonably likely to result in the termination of any such Canadian Pension Plan or Canadian Benefit Plan, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, there are no actions, claims or proceedings other than routine claims for benefits which have been commenced against or in respect of any of the Canadian Pension Plans or the Canadian Benefit Plans, and to the knowledge of the Borrowers and Subsidiaries after due inquiry, none are reasonably expected to be asserted against any Canadian Pension Plan, the Canadian Benefit Plan or the assets thereof that would create a material liability.  Based on the most recent actuarial valuations whether filed with government authorities or not (including, without limitation, the Canadian Pension Regulator), each of the Canadian Pension Plans, if any, was fully funded on a solvency basis as of the date of such actuarial valuations and no Canadian Pension Plan or Canadian Benefit Plan is “unfunded” on either a solvency or going concern basis.  No benefit plan constituted under a Canadian Pension Plan or Canadian Benefit Plan was unfunded or self-insured.  No Canadian Benefit Plan that is a group insurance plan had a material deficit reserve.  Each of the General Partner, the Borrowers and the Subsidiaries have fulfilled their material obligations in respect of any Canadian Union-Administered Plan as required pursuant to any collective agreement and applicable law, and no contribution failure has occurred, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No Canadian Union-Administered Plan requires contributions beyond the then current accrual rate.  For greater certainty, no Canadian Union-Administered Plan 

-83‐


Exhibit 10.1


requires deficit or withdrawal payments, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  There are no disputes, claims or proceedings, either pending or threatened, in connection with the obligations of the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary in respect of any Canadian Union‐Administered Plan, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  None of the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary has any knowledge, nor any right to obtain knowledge, with respect to:  (a) the terms of any Canadian Union‐Administered Plan; (b) whether or not there are any outstanding disputes with parties other than the General Partner, any Borrower, and any Subsidiary in respect of any Canadian Union‐Administered Plan; (c) whether or not each Canadian Union‐Administered Plan has been administered in accordance with applicable law; nor (d) whether or not the assets of each Canadian Union‐Administered Plan are sufficient to provide projected benefits; and none of the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary has any obligation to make inquiries in respect of the foregoing or monitor the administration or funded status in respect of any Canadian Union‐Administered Plan.
Section 5.10.    Subsidiaries.  Schedule 5.10 (as supplemented from time to time pursuant to Section 6.18) hereto identifies the following information for each Subsidiary: jurisdiction of its organization; the percentage of issued and outstanding interests of each class of its Ownership Interests owned by the MLP and other Subsidiaries; and, if such percentage is not 100% (excluding directors’ qualifying shares as required by law), a description of each class of its authorized Ownership Interests and the number of interests of each class issued and outstanding.  All of the outstanding Ownership Interests of each Subsidiary are validly issued and outstanding and fully paid and nonassessable and all such Ownership Interests indicated on Schedule 5.10 (as supplemented from time to time pursuant to Section 6.18) as owned by the MLP or another Subsidiary are owned, beneficially and of record, by the MLP or such Subsidiary free and clear of all Liens other than the Liens granted in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Collateral Documents and Permitted Liens.  Except as set forth on Schedule 5.10, there are no outstanding commitments or other obligations of the MLP or any Subsidiary to issue, and no options, warrants or other rights of any Person to acquire, any shares of any class of Ownership Interests of the Borrowers or any Subsidiary.  No Subsidiary of any Borrower is a Foreign Subsidiary, other than any Canadian Subsidiary.  
Section 5.11.    Compliance with Laws.  The General Partner, each Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance with all applicable statutes, regulations and orders of, and all applicable restrictions imposed by, all Governmental Authorities in respect of the conduct of their businesses and the ownership of their Property, except such noncompliances as could not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

-84‐


Exhibit 10.1


Section 5.12.    Environmental Matters.  (a) Each Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries conducts in the ordinary course of business a review of the effect of existing and proposed Environmental Laws and known or suspected Environmental Claims on their respective businesses, operations and Properties, and as a result thereof, the Borrowers have reasonably concluded that, except as specifically disclosed in Schedule 5.12, any such Environmental Claims could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as specifically disclosed in Schedule 5.12, such Environmental Laws and Environmental Claims could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  
(b)    The General Partner, each Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws, except to the extent that the noncompliances individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Except as set forth on Schedule 5.12 or as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, there are no pending or, to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and each Subsidiary, after due inquiry, threatened Environmental Claims, including any such claims (regardless of materiality) for liabilities under CERCLA relating to the disposal of Hazardous Materials, against the General Partner, any Borrower, any Subsidiary or any real property, including leaseholds and easements, owned or operated by the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary.  Except as set forth on Schedule 5.12 or as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, there are no facts, circumstances, conditions or occurrences on any real property, including leaseholds and easements, owned or operated by the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary that, to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and each Subsidiary, after due inquiry, could reasonably be expected (i) to form the basis of an Environmental Claim against the General Partner, any Borrower, any Subsidiary or any such real property, or (ii) to cause any such real property to be subject to any restrictions on the ownership, occupancy, use or transferability of such real property by the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary under any applicable Environmental Law.  Except as set forth on Schedule 5.12 or as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and each Subsidiary, Hazardous Materials have not been Released on or from any real property, including leaseholds and easements, owned or operated by the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary.  
(c)    Except for matters that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, none of the Properties currently owned or operated by the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary is listed or proposed for listing on the NPL or on the CERCLIS or any analogous foreign, state or local list.

Exhibit 10.1


or right-of-way interests, to and in their assets except, in each case, for sales of assets in the ordinary course of business or where failure to so have such title or interests could not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect, and is subject to no Liens, other than Permitted Liens.

The Pipeline Rights establish contiguous and continuous rights-of-way for each of the Pipeline and Transportation Systems and grant the MLP or its Subsidiaries, the right to construct, operate, and maintain each of the Pipeline and Transportation Systems in, over, under, or across the land covered thereby in the same way that a prudent owner and operator would inspect, operate, repair, and maintain similar assets and in the same way as MLP or its Subsidiaries have inspected, operated, repaired, and maintained each of the Pipeline and Transportation Systems as reflected in the Audited Financial Statements; provided, however, (A) some of the Pipeline Rights granted to MLP or its Subsidiaries by private parties and Governmental Authorities are revocable at the right of the applicable grantor or its successors-in-interest, (B) some of the rights-of-way may cross properties that are subject to Liens, covenants, conditions, and restrictions in favor of third parties that have not been subordinated to the Pipeline Rights; and (C) some Pipeline and Transportation Systems are subject to certain defects, omissions, limitations and restrictions; provided, further, that none of the limitations, defects, and restrictions described in clauses (A), (B) and (C) above could reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

True, correct and complete copies of all Leased Terminal Leases in effect on the Effective Date have been provided to the Administrative Agent prior to the Effective Date.
(d)    There has been no and there is not presently any occurrence of any (i) breach or event of default on the part of any Borrower or any Subsidiary with respect to any Pipeline Right or Leased Terminal Lease, (ii) to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and each Subsidiary, breach or event of default on the part of any other party to any Pipeline Right or Leased Terminal Lease, and (iii) event that, with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such breach or event of default on the part of any Borrower or any Subsidiary with respect to any Pipeline Right or Leased Terminal Lease or, to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and 

-88‐


Exhibit 10.1


each Subsidiary, on the part of any other party thereto, in each case, to the extent any such breach or default could reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.  The Pipeline Rights and Leased Terminal Leases (to the extent applicable) are in full force and effect in all material respects and are valid and enforceable against the parties thereto in accordance with their terms (subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance and similar laws effecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity) and all rental and other payments due thereunder by the Borrowers, their Subsidiaries and their predecessors in interest have been duly paid in accordance with the terms of the Pipeline Rights and Leased Terminal Leases, except to the extent that a failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.
(e)    The Pipeline and Transportation Systems are located within the confines of the land covered by the Pipeline Rights and do not encroach upon any adjoining property, except where the failure of any portion of any of the Pipeline and Transportation Systems to be so located could not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

The buildings and improvements owned or leased by any Borrower or any Subsidiary but not covered by a Title Insurance Policy as set forth in Section 3.2(o), and the operation and maintenance of such properties do not, to the knowledge of the each Borrower and each Subsidiary (i) contravene any applicable zoning or building law or ordinance or other administrative regulation or (ii) violate any applicable restrictive covenant or any applicable Legal Requirement, the contravention or violation of which, in either, case could be reasonably expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
(f)    Except for eminent domain proceedings or takings that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, neither the General Partner nor any Borrower nor any Subsidiary has received any written notice that any eminent domain proceeding or taking has been commenced with respect to all or any portion of the Pipeline and Transportation Systems or the Terminals, and, to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and each Subsidiary, no such proceeding or taking is contemplated.
(g)    No portion of the Pipeline and Transportation Systems or the Terminals has suffered any material damage by fire or other casualty loss that has not heretofore been repaired and restored, except for such damage or other casualty loss that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(h)    The aggregate fair market value of the McMurrey Properties is less than U.S. $50,000 as of the Effective Date.
Section 5.16.    Labor Relations.     Neither the General Partner nor Borrower nor any Subsidiary is engaged in any unfair labor practice that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  There is (a) no strike, labor dispute, slowdown or stoppage pending against the General Partner or any Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and each Subsidiary, threatened against the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary and (b) to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and each Subsidiary, no union representation proceeding is pending with respect to the employees of the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary and no union organizing activities are taking place, except (with respect to any matter specified in clause (a) or (b) above, either individually or in the aggregate) such as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

With respect to the services provided by the Pipeline and Transportation Systems that are subject to FERC jurisdiction under the Interstate Commerce Act and are not subject to a valid waiver of applicable regulatory requirements granted by FERC, (i) to the knowledge of the General Partner and each Borrower, the rates on file with the FERC are just and reasonable and (ii) to the knowledge of the General Partner and each Borrower, no provision of the tariff containing such rates is unduly discriminatory or preferential.  None of the  Borrowers, the Borrowers’ Subsidiaries, or any other Person that now owns an interest in any of the Pipeline and Transportation Systems has been within the past three (3) years or is the subject of a complaint, investigation or other proceeding at the FERC regarding their respective rates or practices with respect to the Pipeline and Transportation Systems.  No complaint or investigation is currently pending before the FERC, nor to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and each Subsidiary is any such complaint or investigation currently contemplated, that could result in, if adversely determined to the position or interest of the Borrowers or their applicable Subsidiaries, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect.

-92‐


Exhibit 10.1


each Subsidiary that owns pipelines and conducts pipeline operations in the State of Louisiana has determined that no tariff filing with any regulatory agency of the State of Louisiana is necessary because all pipeline services within the State of Louisiana are interstate common carrier services that are governed exclusively by the FERC.  Except to the extent that any of the following could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, no Borrower or Subsidiary which owns pipelines and conducts pipeline services and operations in the State of Louisiana has been subject to any written challenge, protest or complaint by any party, including any agency of the State of Louisiana, with respect to (i) the jurisdiction of the State of Louisiana or any agency thereof over such pipelines and pipeline services and operations in the State of Louisiana, or (ii) the lack of a tariff filing with any regulatory agency of the State of Louisiana regarding such pipeline services and operations.

No Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries, to the extent applicable, has been subject to any material enforcement or remedial action by or involving PHMSA within the past three (3) years, except to the extent that any such enforcement or remedial action, either individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(h)    As of the Effective Date, no Borrower or Subsidiary is liable for any material refunds or interest thereon as a result of an order from the FERC or any other Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Pipeline and Transportation Systems.

Exhibit 10.1


(a)    any payment, prepayment or conversion of a Eurodollar Loan, Canadian CDOR or Swing Loan on a date other than the last day of its Interest Period, 
(b)    any failure (because of a failure to meet the conditions of Section 3 or otherwise) by the Borrowers to borrow or continue a Eurodollar Loan, Canadian CDOR or Swing Loan, to convert (i) a Base Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Loan or Swing Loan, or (ii) a Canadian Prime Rate Loan into a Canadian CDOR Loan or Swing Loan, on the date specified in a notice given pursuant to Section 2.4(a), other than as a result of the application of Sections 8.2 or 8.3,

then, upon the written demand of such Lender, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such amount as will reimburse such Lender for such loss, cost or expense.  If any Lender makes such a claim for compensation, it shall provide to the Borrowers, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a certificate setting forth the amount of such loss, cost or expense in reasonable detail (including an explanation of the basis for and the computation of such loss, cost or expense) and the amounts shown on such certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
Section 8.2.    Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, if at any time any Change in Law makes it unlawful for any Lender to make or continue to maintain any Eurodollar Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans or to perform its obligations as contemplated hereby, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and such Lender’s obligations to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans under this Agreement shall be suspended until it is no longer unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans, as applicable.

-120‐


Exhibit 10.1


Section 8.3.    Unavailability of Deposits or Inability to Ascertain, or Inadequacy of, LIBOR    .  (a)  If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans:
(i)    the Administrative Agent determines that deposits in U.S. Dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to it in the interbank eurodollar market for such Interest Period, or that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank eurodollar market adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBOR, or
(ii)    the Required Lenders advise the Administrative Agent that (i) LIBOR as determined by the Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding their Eurodollar Loans for such Interest Period or (ii) that the making or funding of Eurodollar Loans become impracticable, 
then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give written notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Lenders, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended.
(b)  If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Borrowing of Canadian CDOR Loans, the Required Lenders advise the Administrative Agent that (i) the CDOR Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding their Canadian CDOR Loans for such Interest Period or (ii) that the making or funding of Canadian CDOR Loans become impracticable, then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give written notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Lenders, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligations of the Lenders to make Canadian CDOR Loans shall be suspended.

(ii)    subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

Exhibit 10.1


(iii)    impose on any Lender or any L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such 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 Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender, such L/C Issuer or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, such L/C Issuer or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, such L/C Issuer or other Recipient, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender, such L/C Issuer or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such L/C Issuer or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b)    Capital Requirements.  If any Lender or any L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such L/C Issuer or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or such L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered
(c)    Certificates for Reimbursement.  A certificate of a Lender or an L/C Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 8.4(a) or (b) above and delivered to the Borrowers, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.
(d)    Delay in Requests.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or 

-122‐


Exhibit 10.1


such L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
Section 8.5.    Intentionally Omitted.  
Section 8.6.    Discretion of Lender as to Manner of Funding    .  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of its Loans in any manner it sees fit, it being understood, however, that for the purposes of this Agreement all determinations hereunder with respect to Eurodollar Loans shall be made as if each Lender had actually funded and maintained each Eurodollar Loan through the purchase of deposits in the interbank eurodollar market having a maturity corresponding to such Loan’s Interest Period, and bearing an interest rate equal to LIBOR for such Interest Period.
Section 8.7.    Defaulting Lenders.  (a) Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:
(i)    Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders.
(ii)    Defaulting Lender Waterfall.   Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 7 or otherwise)  or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.13 shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the L/C Issuers or the Administrative Agent in its capacity as the maker of Swing Loans hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize contingent funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender in respect of any participation in any Swing Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Borrowers may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund as required by this Agreement, 

-123‐


Exhibit 10.1


as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to be held in a non interest bearing deposit account and to be released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement and Cash Collateralize contingent funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender in respect of participation in any future Swing Loan or future Letter of Credit; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers or the Administrative Agent as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the L/C Issuers or the Administrative Agent against that Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Obligations in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.1 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Obligations owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis  in accordance with their Percentages under the applicable Credit prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Obligations owed to such Defaulting Lender.  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 8.7 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
(iii)    Certain Fees.  (A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment fee under Section 2.12(a) or any amendment fees, waiver fees, or similar fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).
(B)    Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Letter of Credit fee under Section 2.12(b) and amounts owed to it in respect of participating interest in Swing Loans under Section 2.10(e) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit and participating interests in Swing Loans for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 4.5.

-124‐


Exhibit 10.1


(C)    With respect to any fees not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrowers shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to the Administrative Agent as the maker of Swing Loans and to each L/C Issuer, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to the Administrative Agent’s or such L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.
(iv)    Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations and Swing Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (A) the conditions set forth in Section 3.1 are satisfied at such time (and, unless the Borrowers shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at the time, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (B) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans and participating interests in L/C Obligations and Swing Loans of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s  Commitment.  No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.
(v)     Cash Collateral.  If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, within 3 Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent, Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s interests in L/C Obligations and Swing Loans (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (iv) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4.5 for so long as such interests in L/C Obligations and Swing Loans are outstanding.
(b)    Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, and the L/C Issuers agree in writing in their reasonable discretion that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase 

-125‐


Exhibit 10.1


that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentages (without giving effect to Section 8.7(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
(c)    New Swing Line Loans/Letters of Credit.  So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Administrative Agent in its capacity as the maker of Swing Loans shall not be required to fund any Swing Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after effect to such Swing Loan and (ii) no L/C Issuer shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto. 
		
	SECTION 9.
	THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.


Section 9.1.    Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent.  Each Lender and each L/C Issuer hereby appoints Fifth Third Bank, an Ohio banking corporation, to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as Administrative Agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The provisions of this Section 9 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, and neither any Borrower nor any Guarantor shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions.  It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.  Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.
Section 9.2.    Administrative Agent and Its Affiliates.  The Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise or refrain from exercising such rights and powers as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with any Borrower or any Affiliate of 

-126‐


Exhibit 10.1


any Borrower as if it were not the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.  The terms “Lender” and “Lenders”, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise clearly requires, includes the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender.  References in Section 2 to the Administrative Agent’s Loans, or to the amount owing to the Administrative Agent for which an interest rate is being determined, refer to the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender.
Section 9.3.    Exculpatory Provisions.  (a) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and its Related Parties:
(i)    shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;
(ii)    shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or any Legal Requirement, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law, and the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder or under any other Loan Document unless it first receives any further assurances of its indemnification from the Lenders that it may require, including prepayment of any related expenses and any other protection it requires against any and all costs, expense, and liability which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action; and
(iii)    shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

Exhibit 10.1


(b)    Any instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.10) shall be binding upon all the Lenders.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by the Administrative Agent (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.10), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment.  In all cases in which the Loan Documents do not require the Administrative Agent to take specific action, the Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in using its discretion in failing to take or in taking any action thereunder.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume that no Default or Event of Default exists, and shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent in writing by the Borrowers or a Lender.  If the Administrative Agent receives from the Borrowers a written notice of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 6.1, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give each of the Lenders written notice thereof. 
(c)    Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any Credit Event, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness, genuineness, value, worth or collectability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument, document or writing furnished in connection with any Loan Document or any Collateral, or the existence, perfection, or priority of any Lien purported to be created by this Agreement or any Collateral Documents, or (v) the value or sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 3 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent; and the Administrative Agent makes no representation of any kind or character with respect to any such matter mentioned in this sentence. 
Section 9.4.    Reliance by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made 

-128‐


Exhibit 10.1


by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.  In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit.  The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), 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 Administrative Agent may treat the payee of any Note or any Loan as the holder thereof until written notice of transfer shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent signed by such payee in form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
Section 9.5.    Delegation of Duties.  The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub‐agents appointed by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent and any such sub‐agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of this Section 9 shall apply to any such sub‐agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub‐agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Facilities as well as activities as Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct  in the selection of such sub‐agents.
Section 9.6.    Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender and each L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties 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 and each L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties 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 any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Exhibit 10.1


Section 9.8.    Resignation of Administrative Agent and Successor Administrative Agent    .  (a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers, and the Borrowers.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrowers, to appoint a successor, which may be any Lender hereunder or any commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least U.S. $200,000,000 and, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such appointment shall be within the Borrowers’ consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld).  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above.  Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.
(b)    If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrowers and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrowers, appoint a successor.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.
(c)    With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the L/C Issuers under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each L/C Issuer directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above.  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be 

-130‐


Exhibit 10.1


discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.  The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor.  After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 9 and Section 10.12 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub‐agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.
Section 9.9.    L/C Issuers and Swing Line Lender.      (a)  Each L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith.  Each L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Administrative Agent in this Section 9 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the Applications pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent”, as used in this Section 9, included such L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions and (ii) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to such L/C Issuer.
(b)    The Administrative Agent in its capacity as the maker of Swing Loans hereunder shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to the Swing Loans made hereunder.  The Administrative Agent in its capacity as the maker of Swing Loans hereunder shall each have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Administrative Agent in this Section 9 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Administrative Agent in its capacity as the maker of Swing Loans hereunder in connection with Swing Loans made or to be made hereunder as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent”, as used in this Section 9, included the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as the maker of Swing Loans hereunder, with respect to such acts or omissions and (ii) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to such Administrative Agent, in its capacity as the maker of Swing Loans hereunder, as applicable.
(c)    The Administrative Agent shall provide notice to the Canadian Lenders of the Original Dollar Amount of any Loans under the Canadian Revolving Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars and any Canadian Letters of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars.
Section 9.10.    Hedging Liability and Bank Product Liability Arrangements.  By virtue of a Lender’s execution of this Agreement or an assignment agreement pursuant to Section 10.9, as the case may be, any Affiliate of such Lender with whom any Borrower or any Guarantor has entered into an agreement creating Hedging Liability or Bank Product Liability shall be deemed a Lender party hereto for purposes of any reference in a Loan Document to the parties for whom the Administrative Agent is acting, it being understood and agreed that the rights and benefits of such 

-131‐


Exhibit 10.1


Affiliate under the Loan Documents consist exclusively of such Affiliate’s right to share in payments and collections out of the Collateral and the Guaranties as more fully set forth in Section 2.8 and Section 4.  In connection with any such distribution of payments and collections, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume no amounts are due to any Lender or its Affiliate with respect to Hedging Liability or Bank Product Liability unless such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent in writing of the amount of any such liability owed to it or its Affiliate prior to such distribution.
Section 9.11.    No Other Duties; Designation of Additional Agents.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Bookrunners or Arrangers listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an L/C Issuer hereunder.  The Administrative Agent shall have the continuing right, for purposes hereof, at any time and from time to time to designate one or more of the Lenders (and/or its or their Affiliates) as “syndication agents,” “documentation agents,” “arrangers” or other designations for purposes hereto, including the designations of the Co-Syndication Agents and the Co-Documentation Agents, but such designations shall have no substantive effect, and such Lenders and their Affiliates shall have no additional powers, duties or responsibilities as a result thereof.
Section 9.12.    Authorization to Enter into, and Enforcement of, the Collateral Documents and Guaranty.  The Lenders, such Affiliates of the Lenders who may enter into an agreement creating Hedging Liabilities or Bank Product Liabilities pursuant to Section 9.10 and the L/C Issuers irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver the Collateral Documents and each Guaranty on their behalf and on behalf of each of their Affiliates and to take such action and exercise such powers under the Collateral Documents or any Guaranty as the Administrative Agent considers appropriate, provided the Administrative Agent shall not amend the Collateral Documents or any Guaranty unless such amendment is agreed to in writing by the Required Lenders.  Each Lender and each L/C Issuer acknowledges and agrees that it will be bound by the terms and conditions of the Collateral Documents and each Guaranty upon the execution and delivery thereof by the Administrative Agent.  Except as otherwise specifically provided for herein, no Lender (or its Affiliates) other than the Administrative Agent shall have the right to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law for the foreclosure or other realization upon any Collateral or any or for the execution of any trust or power in respect of the Collateral or any Guaranty or for the appointment of a receiver or for the enforcement of any other remedy under the Collateral Documents or any Guaranty; it being understood and intended that no one or more of the Lenders (or their Affiliates) shall have any right in any manner whatsoever to affect, disturb or prejudice the Lien of the Administrative Agent (or any security trustee therefor) under the Collateral Documents by its or their action or to enforce any right thereunder, and that all proceedings at law or in equity shall be instituted, had, and maintained by the Administrative Agent (or its security trustee) in the manner provided for in the relevant Collateral Documents for the benefit of the Lenders and their Affiliates.

Exhibit 10.1


Section 9.13.    Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.  In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligations shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated), by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(a)    to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.12 and 10.12(a)) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(b)    to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each L/C Issuer to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and each L/C Issuer, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.12 and 10.12(a).  Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or any L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or any L/C Issuer or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or any L/C Issuer in any such proceeding.
Section 9.14.    Collateral and Guaranty Matters.  (a) The Lenders and the L/C Issuers irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion,

(ii)    to subordinate any Lien on any Property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.12(f); 
(iii)    to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted under the Loan Documents; and 
(iv)    to reduce or limit the amount of the Indebtedness secured by any particular item of Collateral to an amount not less than the estimated value thereof to the extent necessary to reduce mortgagee registry, filing and similar tax.
Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of Property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.14.
(b)    The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Borrower or any Guarantor in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

	SECTION 10.
	MISCELLANEOUS.


Section 10.1.    Taxes.  (a) L/C Issuer.  For purposes of this Section 10.1, the term “Lender” includes the L/C Issuers and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
(b)    Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower and any Guarantor under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law.  If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by any Borrower or any Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(c)    Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers and the Guarantors. Each Borrower and each Guarantor shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(d)    Indemnification by the Borrowers and the Guarantors.  The Borrowers and the Guarantors shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(e)    Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrowers and the Guarantors have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers and the Guarantors to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s 

-135‐


Exhibit 10.1


failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.9(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 10.1(e).
(f)    Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Borrower or any Guarantor to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 10.1, such Borrower or such Guarantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(g)    Status of Lenders.  (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 10.1(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, 
(A)    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the 

-136‐


Exhibit 10.1


Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
(B)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(i)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(ii)    executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(iii)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate in form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent representing that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN; or
(iv)     to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate in form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate in form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

-137‐


Exhibit 10.1


(C)     any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)    if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative 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 Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(h)    Treatment of Certain Refunds.   If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 10.1 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 10.1), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 10.1(h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the 

-138‐


Exhibit 10.1


contrary in this Section 10.1(h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 10.1(h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification had not been deducted, withheld, or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.  This Section 10.1(h) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(i)    Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 10.1 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
Section 10.2.    Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders  (a) Designation of a Different Lending Office.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 8.4, or requires any Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 10.1, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrowers) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 8.4 or Section 10.1, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(b)    Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 8.4, or if any Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 10.1 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 10.2(a), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then such Borrowers may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.9(b)), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 8.4 or Section 10.1) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

-139‐


Exhibit 10.1


(i)    the Borrowers shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 10.9(b)(iv);
(ii)    such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 8.1) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts);
(iii)    in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 8.4 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 10.1 such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;
(iv)    such assignment does not conflict with applicable law; and
(v)    in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non‐Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.
Section 10.3.    No Waiver, Cumulative Remedies.      No delay or failure on the part of the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer, or any Lender or on the part of the holder or holders of any of the Obligations in the exercise of any power or right under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof or as an acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right.  The rights and remedies hereunder of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, the Lenders and of the holder or holders of any of the Obligations are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies which any of them would otherwise have.
Section 10.4.    Non‐Business Days.  If the payment of any obligation or the performance of any covenant, duty or obligation hereunder becomes due and payable on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date of such payment or performance shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day on which date such payment or performance shall be due and payable.  In the case of any payment of principal falling due on a day which is not a Business Day, interest on such principal amount shall continue to accrue during such extension at the rate per annum then in effect, which accrued amount shall be due and payable on the next scheduled date for the payment of interest.
Section 10.5.    Survival of Representations and Covenants.    All representations and warranties and covenants made herein or in any other Loan Document or in certificates given 

-140‐


Exhibit 10.1


pursuant hereto or thereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall continue in full force and effect with respect to the date as of which they were made as long as any Lender or any L/C Issuer has any Commitment hereunder or any Obligations (other than contingent obligations not due and owing or Letters of Credit Cash Collateralized) remain unpaid hereunder.
Section 10.6.    Survival of Indemnities.      All indemnities and other provisions relative to reimbursement to the Lenders and the L/C Issuers of amounts sufficient to protect the yield of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers with respect to the Loans and Letters of Credit, including, but not limited to, Sections 8.1, 8.4, 10.4 and 10.12, shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment of the Obligations (other than contingent obligations not due and owing or Letters of Credit Cash Collateralized).
Section 10.7.    Sharing of Payments by Lenders.  If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other Obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such Obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them; provided that:
(i)    if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and
(ii)    the provisions of this clause (ii) shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in Reimbursement Obligations to any assignee or participant, other than to any Borrower or any Guarantor (as to which the provisions of this clause (ii) shall apply).
Each Borrower and each Guarantor consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Borrower and each Guarantor rights of setoff 

-141‐


Exhibit 10.1


and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Borrower and each Guarantor in the amount of such participation.

-143‐


Exhibit 10.1


(d)    Platform.
      (i)    Each Borrower and each Guarantor agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but is not obligated to, make the Communications (as defined below) available to the L/C Issuers and the Lenders by posting the Communications on Debt Domain, Intralinks, Syndtrak or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”).
(ii)    The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.”  The Administrative Agent and its Related Parties do not warrant the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications.  No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties in connection with the Communications or the Platform.  In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties have any liability to the Borrowers, any Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Borrower’s, any Guarantor’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Communications through the Platform.  “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material that any Borrower or any Guarantor provides to the Administrative Agent pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed to the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders or the L/C Issuers by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through the Platform.  
(iii)    Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that certain of the Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrowers or their Affiliates, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such Persons’ securities.  Each Borrower hereby agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Communications that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (w) all such Communications shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Communications “PUBLIC”, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders to treat such Communications as not containing any material non-public information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Borrowers or their securities for purposes of United States 

-144‐


Exhibit 10.1


Federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to the extent such Communications constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 10.21); (y) all Communications marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information”; and (z) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any Communications that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Side Information”.  Each Borrower acknowledges that no Communications will be marked “PUBLIC” other than publicly available information filed by the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries with the SEC.  Furthermore, each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender's compliance procedures and applicable Legal Requirements, including United States Federal and state securities laws, to make reference to Communications that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to the Borrowers or their securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities laws.
Section 10.9.    Successors and Assigns; Assignments and Participations.      (a)  Successors and Assigns Generally.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under any Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.9(b) below, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.9(d) below or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.9(f) below (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 10.9(d) below and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b)    Assignments by Lenders.  Any Lender may at any time 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); provided that (in each instance with respect to any U.S. Revolving Credit or Canadian Revolving Credit) any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

-145‐


Exhibit 10.1


(i)    Minimum Amounts.  
(A)    In the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Loans at the time owing to it or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in Section 10.9(b)(i)(B) below in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B)     In any case of an assignment not described in Section 10.9(b)(i)(A) above, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the 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 Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than U.S. $5,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
(ii)    Proportionate Amounts.  Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned.
(iii)    Required Consents.  No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by Section 10.9(b)(i)(B) above and, in addition:
(A)    the consent of the Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrowers shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless they shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after having received notice thereof;
(B)    the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned) shall be required for an assignment if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; and

-146‐


Exhibit 10.1


(C)    the consent of the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent in its capacity as the maker of Swing Loans shall be required for any assignment.  
(iv)    Assignment and Assumption.  The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of U.S. $3,500; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment.  The Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
(v)     No Assignment to Certain Persons.  No Lender shall assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder to (A) any Borrower or any of the Borrowers’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (B) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or (C) any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (v).
(vi)    No Assignment to Natural Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.  
(vii)     Certain Additional Payments.  In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans in accordance with its Percentage.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this clause (vii), then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

-147‐


Exhibit 10.1


Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.9(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a 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 8.4 and 10.12 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.9(d) below.
(c)    Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans 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 Administrative Agent 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.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(d)    Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or any Borrower or any of the Borrowers’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 10.12(c) with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).  

-148‐


Exhibit 10.1


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 Section 10.10(i) and (ii) that affects such Participant.  The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 8.1, 8.4, and 10.1 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.9(b) above; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 10.2 as if it were an assignee under Section 10.2(b) above; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 8.4 or Section 10.1, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.  Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrowers’ request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrowers to effectuate the provisions of Section 10.2(b) with respect to any Participant.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.13 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 10.7 as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other Obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other Obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(e)    Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

-149‐


Exhibit 10.1


(f)    Electronic Execution of Assignments.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.
(g)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if at any time the Administrative Agent assigns all of its Commitment and Loans pursuant to subsection (b) above, the Administrative Agent may terminate the Swing Line.  In the event of such termination of the Swing Line, the Borrowers shall be entitled to appoint another Lender to act as the successor Lender of Swing Loans hereunder (with such Lender’s consent); provided, however, that the failure of the Borrowers to appoint a successor shall not affect the resignation of the Administrative Agent in its capacity as the maker of Swing Loans.  If the Administrative Agent terminates the Swing Line, it shall retain all of the rights of the maker of Swing Loans provided hereunder with respect to Swing Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such termination, including the right to require Lenders to make Revolving Loans or fund participations in outstanding Swing Loans pursuant to Section 2.10.
Section 10.10.    Amendments.  Any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by (a) the Borrowers, (b) the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders), (c) if the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent are affected thereby, the Administrative Agent, and (d) if the rights or duties of an L/C Issuer are affected thereby, such L/C Issuer; provided that:
(i)    no amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 10.10 shall (A) increase or extend the Commitment of any Lender without the consent of such Lender, (B) reduce or waive the amount of or postpone the date for any scheduled payment (but not including any mandatory prepayment) of any principal of or interest on any Loan or of any Reimbursement Obligation (except in connection with the waiver of acceptability of any post-default increase in interest rates (which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Required Lenders)) or of any fee payable hereunder without the consent of the Lender to which such payment is owing or which has committed to make such Loan or Letter of Credit (or participate therein) hereunder or (C) change the application of payments set forth in Section 2.8 without the consent of any Lender adversely affected thereby; and

-150‐

Exhibit 10.1


party thereto, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) 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, or (y) result from a claim brought by any Borrower or any Guarantor against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if such Borrower or such Guarantor has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.  This Section 10.12(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any claim not related to any such Taxes.

To the extent that the Borrowers for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Sections 10.12(a) or (b) to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), including in its capacity as the maker of Swing Loans hereunder, any L/C Issuer or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the L/C Issuers, or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender), provided that with respect to such unpaid amounts owed to the L/C Issuers or the Administrative Agent in its capacity as the maker of the Swing Loans solely in its capacity as such, the Lenders shall be required to pay such unpaid amounts severally among them based on their Percentages (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought), provided, further, that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or an L/C Issuer in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or an L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity.  The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 10.12(c) are several and not joint.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to offset amounts received for the account of a Lender under this Agreement against unpaid amounts due from such Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder (whether as fundings of participations, indemnities or otherwise), but shall not be entitled to offset against amounts owed to the Administrative Agent by any Lender arising outside of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
(d)    Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc.

-153‐


Exhibit 10.1


Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit, or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that nothing in this sentence shall limit or otherwise modify the Borrower’s indemnity obligations under Section 10.12(b).  No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.
(e)    Payments.  All amounts due under this Section shall be payable after demand therefor.
(f)    Survival.  The obligations of the Borrowers under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of Obligations hereunder.
Section 10.13.    Set‐off.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each L/C Issuer, and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Lender, such L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or any Guarantor against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower or such Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or such L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, such L/C Issuer or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Borrower or such Guarantor may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender or such L/C Issuer different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (a) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.7 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, and the Lenders, and (b) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.  The rights of each Lender, each L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have.  Each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent promptly 

-154‐

THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE, OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED ON, ARISING OUT OF, OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT (EXCEPT, AS TO ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH THEREIN) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).

Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Legal Requirements.  Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Borrower or any Guarantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.
(c)    Waiver of Venue.  Each Borrower and each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in Section 10.14(b) above.  Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

-155‐


Exhibit 10.1


(d)    Service of Process.  Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, the manner provided for notices (other than telecopy or e-mail) in Section 10.8.  Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Legal Requirements.
Section 10.15.    Severability of Provisions.  Any provision of any Loan Document which is unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.  All rights, remedies and powers provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable mandatory provisions of law, and all the provisions of this Agreement and other Loan Documents are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law which may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Agreement or the other Loan Documents invalid or unenforceable.
Section 10.16.    Excess Interest.  Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, no such provision shall require the payment or permit the collection of any amount of interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law to be charged for the use or detention, or the forbearance in the collection, of all or any portion of the Loans or other obligations outstanding under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (“Excess Interest”).  If any Excess Interest is provided for, or is adjudicated to be provided for, herein or in any other Loan Document, then in such event (a) the provisions of this Section shall govern and control, (b) neither any Borrower nor any guarantor or endorser shall be obligated to pay any Excess Interest, (c) any Excess Interest that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have received hereunder shall, at the option of the Administrative Agent, be (i) applied as a credit against the then outstanding principal amount of Obligations hereunder and accrued and unpaid interest thereon (not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law), (ii) refunded to the Borrowers, or (iii) any combination of the foregoing, (d) the interest rate payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be automatically subject to reduction to the maximum lawful contract rate allowed under applicable usury laws (the “Maximum Rate”), and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been, and shall be, reformed and modified to reflect such reduction in the relevant interest rate, and (e) neither any Borrower nor any guarantor or endorser shall have any action against the Administrative Agent or any Lender for any Damages whatsoever arising out of the payment or collection of any Excess Interest.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if for any period of time interest on any of Borrowers’ Obligations is calculated at the Maximum Rate rather than the applicable rate under this Agreement, and thereafter such applicable rate becomes less than the Maximum Rate, the rate of interest payable on the Borrowers’ Obligations shall remain at the Maximum Rate until the Lenders have received the amount of interest which 

-156‐


Exhibit 10.1


such Lenders would have received during such period on the Borrowers’ Obligations had the rate of interest not been limited to the Maximum Rate during such period.
Section 10.17.    Construction.  The parties acknowledge and agree that the Loan Documents shall not be construed more favorably in favor of any party hereto based upon which party drafted the same, it being acknowledged that all parties hereto contributed substantially to the negotiation of the Loan Documents.

Section 10.18.    Lender’s and L/C Issuer’s Obligations Several    .  The obligations of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers hereunder are several and not joint.

Section 10.19.    USA Patriot Act    .  Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender and such L/C Issuer to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the Patriot Act.

EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Except as provided in Section 3.2, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.

Each Borrower hereby agrees not to exercise or enforce any right of exoneration, contribution, reimbursement, recourse or subrogation available to such Borrower against any party liable for payment under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents unless and until the Lenders have been paid in full and all of the Obligations are satisfied and discharged.

It is hereby understood and agreed that the General Partner shall have no personal liability, as general partner or otherwise, for the payment of any amount owing or to be owing hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to the Obligations.  In furtherance of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree for themselves and their respective successors and assigns that no claim arising against any Borrower or any Guarantor under any Loan Document with respect to the Obligations shall be asserted against the General Partner (in its individual capacity), any claim arising against any Borrower or any Guarantor under any Loan Document with respect to the Obligations shall be made only against and shall be limited to the assets of the Borrowers and the Guarantors, and no judgment, order or execution entered in any suit, action or proceeding, whether legal or equitable, on this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents with respect to the Obligations shall be obtained or enforced against the General Partner (in its individual capacity) or its assets for the purpose of obtaining satisfaction and payment of the Obligations with respect to the Obligations or any claims arising under this Agreement or any other Loan Document with respect to the Obligations, any right to proceed against the General Partner individually or its respective assets being hereby expressly waived by the Lenders for themselves and their respective successors and assigns.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall retain any and all 

-159‐

rights they may have against the General Partner for any liability to the extent arising out of the gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct, intentional misrepresentation or misappropriation of funds of or by the General Partner.
Section 10.25.    Amendment and Restatement.  This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date and shall supersede all provisions of the Prior Credit Agreement as of such date.  From and after the Effective Date, all references made to the Prior Credit Agreement in any Loan Document or in any other instrument or document shall, without more, be deemed to refer to this Agreement.  Each Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that (a) the Liens created and provided for under the Collateral Documents continue to secure, among other things, the Obligations under the Prior Credit Agreement which shall remain outstanding on the Effective Date, as well as those hereafter arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and (b) the heretofore delivered Collateral Documents and the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent thereunder, the obligations of the Borrowers thereunder, and the Liens created and provided for thereunder remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected, impaired or discharged hereby.  Nothing in this Agreement shall in any manner affect or impair the priority of the Liens and security interests created and provided for hereunder or in any other Loan Document as to the indebtedness which would be secured thereby prior to giving effect to this Agreement.  Nothing in this Agreement shall constitute a novation of any indebtedness or other obligations owing by any Borrower under the Prior Credit Agreement based on any facts occurring or existing prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and all such indebtedness and obligations shall be Obligations hereunder as described herein.
Section 10.26.    Equalization of Outstanding Obligations.  On the Effective Date, all Revolving Loans, Swing Loans and Letters of Credit outstanding under, and as defined in, the Prior Credit Agreement shall remain outstanding as the initial Borrowing of U.S. Revolving Loans, U.S. Swing Loans and U.S. Letters of Credit under this Agreement, and the Lenders each agree to make such purchases and sales of the outstanding Revolving Loans and interests in outstanding U.S. Swing Loans and U.S. Letters of Credit among themselves so that each Lender is then holding its Percentage of outstanding Revolving Loans and interests in Swing Loans and Letters of Credit.  Such purchases and sales shall be arranged through the Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby agrees to execute such further instruments and documents, if any, as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection therewith.  The first payment of interest and Letter of Credit fees received by the Administrative Agent after the Effective Date shall be paid to the Lenders in amounts adjusted to reflect the adjustments to the respective Percentages of the Revolving Loans, Swing Loans and Letter of Credit as of the Effective Date.

(h)    any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any L/C Issuer, or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this clause (h), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the obligations of any Guarantor under this Section 11.
Section 11.3.    Discharge Only upon Payment in Full; Reinstatement in Certain Circumstances    .  Each Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 11 shall remain in full force and effect until the Commitments are terminated, all Letters of Credit that are not Cash Collateralized pursuant to Section 4.5 have expired, and the principal of and interest on the Loans and all other Obligations payable by the Borrowers and the Guarantors under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents (other than any contingent or indemnification obligations not then due) and, if then 

-162‐


Exhibit 10.1


outstanding and unpaid, all Hedging Liability and Bank Product Liability shall have been paid in full or collateralized in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Lender or Affiliate of a Lender to whom such obligations are owed.  If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligation or any other amount payable by any Borrower or other obligor or any Guarantor under the Loan Documents or any agreement relating to Hedging Liability or Bank Product Liability is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of any Borrower or other obligor or of any guarantor, or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 11 with respect to such payment shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had become due but had not been made at such time.
Section 11.4.    Subrogation.  Each Guarantor agrees it will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of subrogation by any payment made hereunder, or otherwise, until all the Obligations (other than any contingent or indemnification obligations not then due) and, Hedging Liability, and Bank Product Liability shall have been paid in full or collateralized in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Lender or Affiliate of a Lender to whom such obligations are owed subsequent to the termination of all the Commitments and expiration of all Letters of Credit that are not Cash Collateralized pursuant to Section 4.5.  If any amount shall be paid to a Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time prior to the later of (a) the payment in full of the Obligations, Hedging Liability, and Bank Product Liability and all other amounts payable by the Borrowers hereunder and the other Loan Documents (other than any contingent or indemnification obligations not then due or Letters of Credit Cash Collateralized) and (b) the termination of the Commitments and expiration of all Letters of Credit that are not Cash Collateralized pursuant to Section 4.5, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the L/C Issuers (and their Affiliates) and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers (and their Affiliates) or be credited and applied upon the Obligations and Hedging Liability, and Bank Product Liability, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Section 11.5.    Subordination.   Each Guarantor hereby subordinates the payment of all indebtedness, obligations, and liabilities of any Borrower or any other Guarantor owing to such Guarantor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Obligations, Hedging Liability, and Bank Product Liability (other than any contingent obligations not due and owing and Letters of Credit Cash Collateralized).  During the existence of any Event of Default, subject to Section 11.4 above, any such indebtedness, obligation, or liability of any Borrower or any other Guarantor owing to such Guarantor shall be enforced and performance received by such Guarantor as trustee for the benefit of the holders of the Obligations, Hedging Liability, and Bank Product Liability and the proceeds thereof shall be paid over to the Administrative Agent for application to the Obligations, Hedging Liability, and Bank Product Liability (whether 

-163‐


Exhibit 10.1


or not then due), but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under this Section 11.
Section 11.6.    Waivers.  Each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest, and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any L/C Issuer, or any other Person against any Borrower or other obligor, another guarantor, or any other Person.
Section 11.7.    Limit on Recovery.  Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the right of recovery against each Guarantor under this Section 11 shall not exceed U.S. $1.00 less than the lowest amount which would render such Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 11 void or avoidable under applicable law, including fraudulent conveyance law.
Section 11.8.    Stay of Acceleration.  If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by any Borrower or other obligor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or under any agreement relating to Hedging Liability or Bank Product Liability, is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Borrower or such obligor, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or under any agreement relating to Hedging Liability or Bank Product Liability, shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent made at the request of the Required Lenders.
Section 11.9.    Benefit to Guarantors.  The Borrowers and the Guarantors are engaged in related businesses and integrated to such an extent that the financial strength and flexibility of the Borrowers has a direct impact on the success of each Guarantor.  Each Guarantor will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the extensions of credit hereunder.
Section 11.10.    Keepwell.  Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Guarantor to honor all of its obligations under this Section 11 in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 11.10 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 11.10, or otherwise under this Section, voidable under applicable Legal Requirements relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount).  The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 11.10 shall remain in full force and effect until discharged in accordance with Section 11.3.  Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 11.10 constitute, and this Section 11.10 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the 

-164‐


Exhibit 10.1


benefit of each other Guarantor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act. 
Section 11.11.    Guarantor Covenants.  Each Guarantor shall take such action as the Borrowers are required by this Agreement to cause such Guarantor to take, and shall refrain from taking such action as the Borrowers are required by this Agreement to prohibit such Guarantor from taking.

Exhibit 10.1


Schedule 5.12
Environmental Matters


1.    The aggregate of materially all of the issues and conditions identified in the Phase I Site Assessment Reports listed in Attachment 1 to this Schedule 5.12.
2.    Certain pipeline facilities are subject to the pipeline safety regulations of the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (“PHMSA”) at the U.S. Department of Transportation (“DOT”),  PHMSA regulates the design, construction, testing, operation, maintenance and emergency response of crude oil, petroleum products and other hazardous liquid pipeline facilities under 49 C.F.R. Part 195. 
Pursuant to the Pipeline Safety Improvement Act of 2002, as reauthorized and amended by the Pipeline Inspection, Protection, Enforcement and Safety Act of 2006 (“PIPES Act”), PHMSA has adopted regulations requiring pipeline operators to develop integrity management programs for hazardous liquids pipelines located where a leak or rupture could affect “high consequence areas, “ which are populated or environmentally sensitive areas. Pursuant to the PIPES Act, PHMSA issued regulations on May 5, 2011, that would, with limited exceptions, subject all low-stress hazardous liquids pipelines, regardless of location or size, to PHMSA's pipeline safety regulations and would subject those low-stress hazardous liquids pipelines within one half mile of an environmentally sensitive area to the integrity management requirements.
3.    On March 9, 2013, a release of crude oil was detected within a pumping facility at the Magnolia Station located west of El Dorado refinery. The pumping facility is owned by SALA Gathering. It is estimated that approximately 5,900 barrels of crude oil were released, of which all but approximately 2,650 barrels were contained at the Magnolia Station. Much of the remaining released crude oil reached a nearby small creek. Since detecting the release the company has worked to contain the release, recover the released crude oil and remediate those areas impacted by the release, coordinating efforts with the EPA and state authorities to restore the impacted area to the satisfaction of the appropriate regulatory authorities.
