## Exhibit 99.1

**Exhibit 99.1**

**FIRST AMENDMENT TO SEVENTH AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT**

FIRST AMENDMENT TO SEVENTH AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT (this "**Amendment**"), dated as of May 27, 2022 by and among GFL ENVIRONMENTAL INC., a corporation existing under the laws of Ontario, Canada (the "**Canadian Borrower**"), GFL ENVIRONMENTAL USA INC., a corporation existing under the laws of Delaware (the "**US Borrower**"), the Guarantors party hereto, BANK OF MONTREAL, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the "**Administrative Agent**") and collateral agent for the Lenders under the Existing Credit Agreement (as defined below), and each Lender party hereto.

**RECITALS:**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. The Canadian Borrower, the US Borrower, the Guarantors, Bank of Montreal, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and each Lender from time to time party thereto are parties to that certain Seventh Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of September 27, 2021 (the "**Existing Credit Agreement**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. The Canadian Borrower has delivered an Accordion Notice, as such term is defined in the Existing Credit Agreement, requesting an increase of the Facility A Credit by C$300,000,000 and the Facility A Commitments of the Lenders have been increased pursuant to such Accordion Notice and are, as at the date of this Agreement, in relation to each Lender, the amount set opposite its name in Schedule 1.1.74 of the Amended Credit Agreement (as defined below).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. A Benchmark Transition Event, as such term is defined in the Existing Credit Agreement, has occurred and further LIBO Rate Advances will no longer be made available to the Borrowers and the Borrowers and the Lenders wish to provide for SOFR Advances (as defined below) in substitution for LIBO Rate Advances.

In consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

**SECTION 1. Defined Terms.** Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Existing Credit Agreement as amended hereby (the "**Amended Credit Agreement**").

**SECTION 2. Increase of Facility A Credit.**

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Facility A Credit is increased to the maximum amount of ONE BILLION TWO HUNDRED AND FIVE MILLION CDOLLARS (C$1,205,000,000), as such maximum amount may be reduced or increased from time to time pursuant to the terms hereof, which the Lenders will make available to the Canadian Borrower pursuant to, and in accordance with the terms of, ARTICLE 3 and the other provisions of the Amended Credit Agreement. The Facility A Commitment in relation to a Lender means at any time the amount set opposite its name in Schedule 1.1.74 of the Amended Credit Agreement in respect of Facility A Commitment less any amount by which it has been cancelled, terminated or reduced in accordance with the Amended Credit Agreement, as it may be adjusted pro rata or otherwise further to an assignment or otherwise.

**SECTION 3. Amendments to the Existing Credit Agreement.** In accordance with Sections 3.10 and 24.3 of the Existing Credit Agreement and effective as of the First Amendment Effective Date, the parties hereto agree that the Existing Credit Agreement, including schedules and exhibits thereto, is hereby amended to delete the stricken text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: stricken text) and to add the double-underlined text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: <u>double-underlined text</u>) as set forth in the pages of the Amended Credit Agreement attached as Exhibit A hereto.

**SECTION 4. LIBO Rate Loans.** On and after the First Amendment Effective Date (as defined below), the Borrowers shall not be entitled to any LIBO Rate Advance (as such term is defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) by way of Advance pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing, Conversion Advance, Converted Advance or Rollover Advance and each LIBO Rate Advance outstanding on the First Amendment Effective Date shall be repaid or converted into another type of Advance in accordance with Section 3.8, 5.6 or 6.6 of the Amended Credit Agreement on the last day of its applicable Interest Period.

**SECTION 5. Representations and Warranties.** To induce the other parties hereto to enter into this Amendment, each Obligor represents and warrants to the other parties hereto on the First Amendment Effective Date as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The execution, delivery and performance by each Obligor of this Amendment has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action by such Obligor. This Amendment and the Amended Credit Agreement constitute each Obligor's legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to (i) applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, (ii) the fact that specific performance and injunctive relief may only be given in the discretion of the courts, and (iii) the equitable or statutory powers of the courts to stay proceedings before them and to stay the execution of judgments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The representations and warranties of the Obligors set forth in Section 2.1 of the Amended Credit Agreement, subject to any revision or update to Schedules made pursuant to Section 14.1.2.8 or to be made in connection with any Permitted Acquisition as required by Section 14.1.2.8, and, except the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.1.16 (which shall be read as if they referred to the most recent financial statements delivered by the Obligors to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 14.1.2), are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the First Amendment Effective Date (immediately after giving effect to this Amendment), except for representations and warranties (i) that are already qualified by materiality, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct after giving effect to such materiality qualifier; (ii) that are made as of specific date which shall be true and correct as of such specific date; and (iii) that relate to revisions to Schedules 2.1.10 (Real and Immoveable Property), 2.1.13 (Intellectual Property) or 2.1.23 (Corporate Chart and Subsidiaries) to reflect information relating to any Dispositions permitted by the Credit Agreement, the designations of Unrestricted Subsidiaries permitted by the Credit Agreement (including GFL Infrastructure Group Inc.) and any amalgamation, merger, wind-up or dissolution, which revisions shall be reflected in an update to the Schedules to be delivered within 30 days of the next fiscal quarter end, namely July 30, 2022.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as of the First Amendment Effective Date.

**SECTION 6. First Amendment Effective Date**. This Amendment shall become effective as of the first date (the "**First Amendment Effective Date**") on which each of the following conditions shall have been satisfied (or waived by the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Administrative Agent shall have received a counterpart signature page of this Amendment duly executed by each Obligor, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders constituting the Required Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of each Obligor (i) certifying that attached thereto are resolutions evidencing necessary corporate action on their part approving and authorizing the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment and approving and authorizing the manner in which and by whom this Amendment are to be executed and delivered, and (ii) attaching signature and incumbency certificates of the Responsible Officers of such Obligor executing this Amendment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate of status, compliance, good standing or like certificate with respect to each Obligor issued by the appropriate government officials of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or amalgamation, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) All fees required to be paid on the First Amendment Effective Date pursuant to that certain Fee Letter, dated as of May 13, 2022 (the "**Fee Letter**"), among the Canadian Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) On and as of the First Amendment Effective Date the representations and warranties of the Obligors set forth in SECTION 5 hereof shall be true and correct.

**SECTION 7. Effect of Amendment.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Except as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of the Lenders or Agents under the Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, and shall not alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Amended Credit Agreement or any other provision of the Amended Credit Agreement or of any other Loan Document, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect. Nothing herein shall be deemed to entitle the Borrower to a consent to, or a waiver, amendment, modification or other change of, any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) From and after the First Amendment Effective Date, each reference in the Existing Credit Agreement to "this Agreement", "hereunder", "hereof", "herein", or words of like import, and each reference to the "Credit Agreement" in any other Loan Document shall be deemed a reference to the Amended Credit Agreement. This Amendment shall constitute a "Loan Document" for all purposes of the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each Obligor hereby (i) acknowledges that it has reviewed the terms and provisions of this Amendment, (ii) ratifies and reaffirms all of its payment and performance obligations, contingent or otherwise, under each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, (iii) ratifies and reaffirms each grant of a lien on, or security interest in, its property made pursuant to the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, each grant of security made by such Obligor (or by any predecessor to it, as applicable) pursuant to the Security Documents) and confirms that such liens and security interests continue to secure its Obligations under the Loan Documents (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all Obligations, Obligations Secured and Guaranteed Obligations, each as defined in the applicable Loan Document), subject to the terms thereof, (iv) acknowledges and agrees that each Loan Document to which it is a party or otherwise bound shall continue and remain in full force and effect and all of its obligations thereunder shall be valid and enforceable and not be impaired or limited by the execution of this Amendment and (v) in the case of each Guarantor, ratifies and reaffirms its guarantee of the Obligations, Obligations Secured, and Guaranteed Obligations (each as defined in the applicable Loan Document) pursuant to its Guarantee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Each party hereto agrees and acknowledges that this Amendment constitutes all notices or requests required under Section 24.3 of the Existing Credit Agreement, and to the extent inconsistent with any requirement or provision thereof, hereby waives any such inconsistency in effecting the amendments, agreements and undertakings provided herein.

**SECTION 8. Amendments; Severability.** This Amendment may not be amended nor may any provision hereof be waived except pursuant to Section 10.01 of the Amended Credit Agreement. If any provision of this Amendment is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Amendment shall not be affected or impaired thereby. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

**SECTION 9. GOVERNING LAW:** The provisions of Sections 24.13, 24.14, 24.15 and 24.16 of the Amended Credit Agreement are incorporated herein by reference, *mutatis mutandis*.

**SECTION 10. Headings.** Section headings herein are included for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Amendment.

**SECTION 11. Counterparts; Electronic Execution.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Amendment and the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The words "execution," "signed," "signature," and words of like import in this Amendment and the Amended Credit Agreement 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 Parts 2 and 3 of the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (Canada), the Electronic Commerce Act, 2000 (Ontario) and other similar federal or provincial laws based on the Uniform Electronic Commerce Act of the Uniform Applicable Law Conference of Canada or its Uniform Electronic Evidence Act, as the case may be.

 of the Canadian Borrower ending on or after the Closing Date, the third Business Day after
 receipt by the Administrative Agent of the financial statements and Compliance Certificate

 shall be established on a Pricing Date based on the Leverage Ratio as of the end of the most
 recently completed fiscal quarter or Fiscal Year, as applicable, and the Applicable Margin
 established on a Pricing Date shall remain in effect until the next Pricing Date. If the
 Canadian Borrower has not delivered its financial statements and Compliance Certificate by
 the date such financial statements and Compliance Certificate are required to be delivered
 under Section 14.1.2.2.3 hereof (the "**Required Delivery Date** "), until
 such financial statements and Compliance Certificate are delivered, the Applicable Margin
 shall, on the first day after the latest date by which the Borrower was so required to provide
 such financial statements and Compliance Certificate, be set at the highest Applicable Margin
 (*i.e.*, Level V shall apply). Each determination of the Applicable Margin made by the
 Administrative Agent in accordance with the foregoing shall be conclusive and binding on
 the Borrower and the Lenders if reasonably determined. Notwithstanding anything else in this
 definition, for the purpose of determining the Applicable Margin until the delivery of unaudited
 financial statements and a Compliance Certificate in respect of the fiscal quarter ending
 on September 30, 2021, the Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be at Level III. For greater
 certainty, there shall be no adjustments to the Applicable Margin in respect of Bankers'
 Acceptances and BA Equivalent Advances that are outstanding on a Pricing Date and the adjustment
 shall apply in respect of such outstanding Bankers' Acceptances and BA Equivalent Advances
 on the next Rollover Date.

If since the beginning of any applicable period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Canadian Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such period shall have entered into any Municipal Waste Contract or Put-or-Pay Agreements or made any Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this section, then the financial ratios, Adjusted EBITDA and Consolidated Total Assets shall be calculated to give pro forma effect thereto in accordance with this Section 1.7. For greater certainty, with respect to adjustments to Adjusted EBITDA with respect to any Municipal Waste Contract or Put-or-Pay Agreement, (a) Projected Run Rate EBITDA shall be used for each 12-month period commencing on the later of (1) the date of execution of the contract and (2) nine months and one day prior to the Service Commencement Date and ending on that date which is three months after the Service Commencement Date, (b) for any 12-month period ending more than three months after the Service Commencement Date but not more than 15 months after the Service Commencement Date, actual EBITDA generated by and attributable to the relevant contract shall be included for each month which is more than three months after the Service Commencement Date and Projected Run Rate EBITDA, pro-rated for the balance of the relevant 12-month period, shall be used for each month in such period ended on the last day of the third month after the Service Commencement Date (such that Adjusted EBITDA determined at the end of the fourth month following the Service Commencement Date shall be the sum of actual EBITDA for such fourth month plus 11/12 of the 12-month Projected Run Rate EBITDA), and (c) for any 12-month period ending more than 15 months after the Service Commencement Date, only actual EBITDA shall be used and there shall be no adjustment with respect to the relevant contract. To avoid duplication, the actual EBITDA generated during the 12-month period ending three months after the Service Commencement Date shall be deducted from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA for the relevant contract.

Whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a Municipal Waste Contract, a Put-or-Pay Agreement or a Specified Transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Canadian Borrower and may include, for the avoidance of doubt, (x) projected and not yet realized revenue and projected and not yet accrued costs, expenses and other charges or liabilities pursuant to any such Municipal Waste Contracts and Put-or-Pay Agreements and (y) the amount of "run rate" cost savings, operating expense reductions, restructuring charges and expenses and cost synergies projected by the Canadian Borrower in good faith to be realized as a result of specified actions taken or committed to be taken (calculated on a pro forma basis as though such cost savings, operating expense reductions, restructuring charges and expenses and cost synergies had been realized on the first day of such period and as if such cost savings, operating expense reductions, restructuring charges and expenses and cost synergies were realized during the entirety of such period) relating to such Municipal Waste Contract or Put-or-Pay Agreement or Specified Transaction, and "run rate" means the full recurring benefit for a period that is associated with any action taken or committed to be taken (including any savings expected to result from the elimination of a public target's compliance costs with public company requirements), net of the amount of actual benefits realized during such period from such actions; <u>provided</u> that (A) with respect to clause (y) above, such amounts are reasonably identifiable and factually supportable (in the good faith determination of the Canadian Borrower), (B) with respect to clause (y) above, such actions are taken or committed to be taken no later than eighteen (18) months after the date of such Specified Transaction or entry into such Municipal Waste Contract, (C) no amounts shall be added pursuant to this Section 1.1.6.1 to the extent duplicative of any amounts that are otherwise added back in computing Adjusted EBITDA, whether through a pro forma adjustment or otherwise, with respect to such period and (D) it is understood and agreed that, subject to compliance with the other provisions of this section, amounts to be included in pro forma calculations pursuant to this section may be included in periods in which the Municipal Waste Contract or Put-or-Pay Agreement or Specified Transaction to which such amounts relate to is no longer being given pro forma effect pursuant to this section.

In the event that the Canadian Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs (including by assumption or guarantees) or repays (including by repurchase, redemption, retirement, extinguishment, defeasance, discharge, escrow or similar arrangements) any Indebtedness included in the calculations of the ratio of Net Funded Secured Debt to Adjusted EBITDA (other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid under any revolving credit facility in the ordinary course of business for working capital purposes), (i) during the applicable period or (ii) subsequent to the end of the applicable period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then the ratio of Net Funded Secured Debt to Adjusted EBITDA shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence or repayment of Indebtedness, to the extent required, as if the same had occurred on the last day of the applicable period. If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date such calculation is being made had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Agreement applicable to such Indebtedness). Interest on Financial Leases and Other Leases shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a Responsible Officer of the Canadian Borrower to be the rate of interest implicit in such Financial Lease or Other Lease, as applicable, in accordance with GAAP. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a Eurocurrency Rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Canadian Borrower may designate.

It is expressly understood and agreed that pro forma adjustments and calculations need not be prepared in compliance with Regulation S-X; <u>provided</u> that, to the extent any pro forma adjustments pursuant to this Section 1.1.6 are not in compliance with Regulation S-X, the aggregate amount of such add-backs to Adjusted EBITDA shall be subject to the 20% limitation set forth in Section 1.1.6.1.9.

1.15 <u>Limited Condition Transactions</u> 

In connection with any action being taken solely in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction (including any contemplated incurrence or assumption of Indebtedness in connection therewith), for purposes of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement that requires the calculation of the ratio of Net Funded Secured Debt to Adjusted EBITDA and/or Total Net Funded Debt to Adjusted EBITDA;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) determining the accuracy of representations and warranties and/or whether a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or any subset of Defaults or Events of Default); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) testing availability under baskets set forth in this Agreement (including baskets measured as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA);

in each case, at the option of the Canadian Borrower (the Canadian Borrower's election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an "**LCA Election**"), with such option to be exercised on or prior to the date of execution of the definitive agreements with respect to such Limited Condition Transaction, the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements with respect to such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (the "**LCA Test Date**"), and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any Indebtedness of the Person or the Assets to be acquired and any incurrence, assumption or repayment of Indebtedness or Liens which is reasonably expected to occur in connection with the closing of the Limited Condition Transaction and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Canadian Borrower ending on or prior to the LCA Test Date, the Canadian Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant LCA Test Date in compliance with such ratio or basket, such ratio or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with. If the Canadian Borrower wishes to make an LCA Election, the Canadian Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, on or before the LCA Test Date, notice of the LCA Election signed by a Responsible Officer which notice shall (i) provide details of the Limited Condition Transaction, (ii) set out reasonably expected sources and uses of funds for the completion of the Limited Condition Transaction, and (iii) certify that after giving pro forma effect to such Limited Condition Transaction (including any Indebtedness of the Person or the Assets to be acquired and any incurrence, assumption or repayment of Indebtedness or Liens which is reasonably expected to occur in connection with the closing of the Limited Condition Transaction and the use of proceeds thereof), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the LCA Test Date.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Canadian Borrower has made an LCA Election and any of the ratios or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCA Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio or basket, including due to fluctuations in Adjusted EBITDA of the Canadian Borrower or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations; <u>provided,</u> however, if any ratios improve or baskets increase as a result of such fluctuations, such improved ratios or baskets may be utilized. If the Canadian Borrower has made an LCA Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then, in connection with any subsequent calculation of the ratios or baskets on or following the relevant LCA Test Date and prior to the earliest of (i) the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated, (ii) the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction or (iii) the date which is one year following the LCA Test Date, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any Indebtedness of the Person or the Assets to be acquired and any incurrence, assumption or repayment of Indebtedness or Liens which is reasonably expected to occur in connection with the closing of the Limited Condition Transaction and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.

The Administrative Agent shall keep appropriate registers showing, as debits, the amount of the indebtedness of the Canadian Borrower towards it in respect of the Facility A Loan, the amount and date of each Advance, Conversion Advance and Rollover Advance, the amount of all accrued interest and any other amount due to such Lender pursuant hereto and, as credits, each payment or repayment of principal or interest made in respect of such indebtedness as well as other amounts paid by the Canadian Borrower pursuant hereto. Such registers shall constitute (in the absence of manifest error) *prima facie* evidence of their content against the Canadian Borrower and the Lenders; <u>provided</u> that the obligation of the Canadian Borrower to pay or repay any indebtedness and liability in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall not be affected by the failure of the Administrative Agent to keep such registers. The Administrative Agent shall supply any Lender and the Canadian Borrower, on demand, with copies of such registers.

3.7 <u>Accounts kept by the Swingline Lender</u> 

The Swingline Lender shall keep in its books, in respect of the Swingline Loan, accounts for the Swingline Loan and other amounts payable by the Canadian Borrower to it under this Agreement. The Swingline Lender shall make appropriate entries showing, as debits, the amount of the indebtedness of the Canadian Borrower towards it in respect of the Swingline Loan, the amount of all accrued interest and any other amount due to the Swingline Lender pursuant hereto and, as credits, each payment or repayment of principal and interest made in respect of such indebtedness as well as other amounts paid to the Swingline Lender pursuant hereto.

3.8 <u>Conversion Option</u> 

At any time prior to the Facility A Maturity Date, subject to Section 8.1, and provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (without having been cured or waived as provided in this Agreement), the Canadian Borrower may elect to convert by Notice of Conversion received by the Administrative Agent, and on the Conversion Date set forth therein the Canadian Borrower shall convert, any US Base Rate Loan, Canadian Rate Loan, LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> Loan or Bankers' Acceptance or any portion thereof outstanding under the Facility A Credit (each a "**Converted Advance**") into another basis of funding in the same currency under the Facility A Credit (each a "**Conversion Advance**") other than Letters of Credit. The provisions of this Agreement relating to Canadian Rate Advances, US Base Rate Advances, LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> Advances and Acceptances shall apply *mutatis mutandis* to Conversion Advances comprising Canadian Rate Advances, US Base Rate Advances, LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> Advances and Acceptances, respectively.

3.9 <u>Swingline Loan</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.9.1 At any time that the Canadian Borrower
 would be entitled to obtain Facility A Advances and to such extent provided in this Section 3.9,
 the Canadian Borrower shall be entitled to create or increase an overdraft in its CDollar
 Current Account or USDollar Current Account, without having to provide to the Administrative
 Agent a Notice of Borrowing. The Swingline CDollar Availment and Swingline USDollar Availment
 from time to time outstanding shall be deemed to be a Canadian Rate Loan or a US Base Rate
 Loan respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.9.2 The Canadian Borrower undertakes not
 to permit the Swingline Loan at any time to exceed the Swingline Limit at such time. For
 greater certainty and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Swingline
 Lender shall not be obligated to permit at any time the creation or the increase of an overdraft
 in the CDollar Current Account or USDollar Current Account (a "**Swingline Advance** "),
 to the extent that at such time the Swingline Loan would exceed the Swingline Limit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.9.3 It is the intention of the parties
 hereto that the Swingline Loan be available to the Canadian Borrower pending the obtaining
 of Facility A Advances pursuant to Section 3.2. Accordingly, on any Banking Day the
 Swingline Loan equals or exceeds the Swingline Limit or, from time to time, as the Swingline
 Lender, in its sole and entire discretion, deems it appropriate, the Swingline Lender shall
 deliver a written notice to the Administrative Agent (which in turn will provide notice to,
 in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, each of the Lenders and to the Canadian
 Borrower), requiring repayment of the Swingline Loan then outstanding or any portion thereof.
 Such written notice from the Swingline Lender to the Administrative Agent shall be delivered
 not later than 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) one (1) Banking Day prior to the proposed
 date of repayment of the Swingline Loan then outstanding or any portion thereof and any repayment
 amount specified in such notice may be for the full amount of the Swingline Loan then outstanding
 or be in a minimum amount of C$500,000 or US$500,000, as the case may be, and multiples of
 C$100,000 or US$100,000 respectively in excess thereof. The Canadian Borrower shall be deemed
 to have given at such time a Notice of Borrowing to the Administrative Agent requesting a
 Canadian Rate Advance and a US Base Rate Advance, as applicable, under the Facility A Credit
 in an amount equal to the portion of the Swingline Loan owing by the Canadian Borrower and
 to be repaid as specified by the Swingline Lender. If the aggregate principal amount of all
 such requested Advances and the Facility A Loan outstanding would not exceed the Facility
 A Total Commitment at such time, and no Event of Default is then continuing, the Lenders
 shall make such requested Advances on the next Banking Day and the Administrative Agent shall
 apply the proceeds thereof in full and partial repayment, as the case may be, of the Swingline
 Loan then outstanding. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Canadian Borrower
 of any such Advance made, and the Canadian Borrower agrees to accept each such Advance and
 hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to apply the proceeds
 thereof in payment of the Swingline Loan as aforesaid.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.9.4 If at any time that the Facility A
 Total Commitment has been terminated following an Event of Default as provided in Section 16.2
 and the Facility A Loan is not outstanding rateably from the Lenders (with the outstanding
 Swingline Loan being deemed for such purpose outstanding under the Swingline Lender's
 Facility A Commitment), any Lender from which excess Advances are outstanding (the "**Surplus Lender**") shall sell to any Lender from which deficit Advances are outstanding (the
 "**Deficit Lender** "), and the Deficit Lender shall purchase from the Surplus
 Lender, for cash, at par, without representation or warranty from or recourse to the Surplus
 Lender, an interest in such of the Advances outstanding from the Surplus Lender as results
 in the ratio of the Facility A Advances outstanding from all Lenders being equal to the ratio
 of their Facility A Commitments. The intention of this Section 3.9.4 is that when any
 and all purchases and sales required hereby have been completed, the outstanding Facility
 A Advances under the Facility A Credit will be outstanding rateably from the Lenders. The
 Administrative Agent, upon consultation with the Lenders, shall have the power to settle
 any documentation required to evidence any such purchase and sale and, if deemed advisable
 by the Administrative Agent, to execute any document as attorney for any Lender in order
 to complete any such purchase and sale. The Canadian Borrower and the Lenders acknowledge
 that the foregoing arrangements are to be settled by the Lenders among themselves, and the
 Canadian Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements among such Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.9.5 Each of the Lenders shall indemnify
 and save harmless the Swingline Lender (to the extent not reimbursed by the Canadian Borrower)
 on a rateable basis based on the Facility A Commitment of each such Lender against all liabilities,
 obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, payments
 or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or
 asserted against the Swingline Lender in any way related to or arising out of the Swingline
 Loan or any Swingline Advance made by the Swingline Lender, except for any such liabilities
 resulting from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Swingline Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.9.6 The Canadian Borrower shall advise
 the Swingline Lender from time to time but not more frequently than as may be agreed by the
 Swingline Lender as to the allocation of the Swingline Limit between the CDollar Current
 Account and the USDollar Current Account.

3.10 Increase of the Facility A Credit <u>[Intentionally Deleted]</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.10.1 At any time,
 prior to the Facility A Maturity Date, subject to Section 8.1, the Canadian Borrower
 may, by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent (an "**Accordion Notice** "),
 from time to time request that the then existing amount of the Facility A Credit be increased
 by an amount of up to C$300,000,000 (in the aggregate for all Accordion Notices with respect
 to the Facility A Credit) and advising whether (i) the Canadian Borrower wishes to arrange
 for such requested increase to be provided by another bank or financial institution, which
 bank or financial institution must satisfy the conditions of Section 23.2.4.3 and must
 agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement as a Lender, or (ii) the
 Canadian Borrower wishes to request each Lender to participate, subject to the Affiliated
 Lender Cap, in such increase in accordance with their Facility A Participation. Within 20
 Banking Days of the receipt by the Administrative Agent of an Accordion Notice requesting
 participation by the Lenders, each Lender shall advise the Administrative Agent as to whether
 or not it intends to participate in such increase of the Facility A Credit. If such advice
 is not received from a Lender within such 20 Banking Day period, then such Lender will be
 deemed not to have agreed to participate in the increase. In the event that not all of the
 Lenders agree to participate in the increase of the Facility A Credit, then the Administrative
 Agent shall so advise the Canadian Borrower which shall have the right to deliver a further
 request to the Administrative Agent for those Lenders participating in the increase of the
 Facility A Credit, to participate in any shortfall in the requested increase in the Facility
 A Credit on a pro rata basis in accordance with the Facility A Commitments of those participating
 Lenders and each participating Lender shall advise the Administrative Agent as to whether
 or not it intends to further participate in such increase of the Facility A Credit, within
 five Banking Days of such further request. In the event that there is still a shortfall,
 a further request again on a *mutatis mutandis* basis will be given to the remaining
 participating Lenders and such request may be accepted or rejected by the remaining participating
 Lenders and each participating Lender shall advise the Administrative Agent as to whether
 or not it intends to further participate in such increase of the Facility A Credit, within
 five Banking Days of such further request. To the extent that the participating Lenders do
 not agree to participate in the request for the increase in the Facility A Credit, then the
 Canadian Borrower may either arrange for such shortfall in the requested increase from another
 bank or financial institution, which bank or financial institution must satisfy the conditions
 of Section 23.2.4.3, must agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement
 as a Lender, or accept the lower amount of the increase in the Facility A Credit, as accepted
 by the participating Lenders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.10.2 Each Accordion
 Notice delivered by the Canadian Borrower shall be substantially in the form of **Schedule** 3.10.2 and the delivery of an Accordion Notice shall constitute a representation and
 warranty of the Canadian Borrower that the representation in Section 2.1.4 is accurate
 after giving effect to the increase in the Facility A Credit, requested by such Accordion
 Notice and a covenant of the Canadian Borrower to provide a copy or other evidence of such
 Required Approvals, if any, to the Administrative Agent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.10.3 No increase
 in the aggregate amount of the Facility A Credit shall be permitted at any time that a Default
 or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.10.4 Upon completion
 of the request process set forth in Section 3.10.1, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
 notify the Canadian Borrower and the Lenders of the increased Facility A Commitments of participating
 Lenders and the individual Commitment of any bank which has become a Lender as contemplated
 by Section 3.10.1; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.10.5 Any upfront
 fee payable by the Canadian Borrower in accordance with any increase to the Facility A Credit
 pursuant to this Section 3.10 shall be negotiated and agreed upon between the Canadian
 Borrower and the relevant Lender.

A Lender shall not be responsible for the Facility D Commitment of any other Lender. Without prejudice to the rights of the US Borrower against a defaulting Lender, the failure or incapacity of a Lender to make available its Facility D Participation in a Borrowing to the US Borrower in accordance with its obligations under this Agreement does not release the other Lenders from their obligations.

6.5 <u>Accounts kept by the Administrative Agent</u> 

The Administrative Agent shall keep in its books, accounts for the Facility D Loan and other amounts payable by the US Borrower under this Agreement.

Such registers shall constitute (in the absence of manifest error) *prima facie* evidence of their content against the US Borrower and the Lenders; <u>provided</u> that the obligation of the US Borrower to pay or repay any indebtedness and liability in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall not be affected by the failure of the Administrative Agent to keep such registers. The Administrative Agent shall supply any Lender and the US Borrower, on demand, with copies of such registers.

6.6 <u>Conversion Option</u> 

At any time prior to the Facility D Maturity Date, subject to Section 8.5 and provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (without having been cured or waived as provided in this Agreement), the US Borrower may elect to convert by Notice of Conversion received by the Administrative Agent, and on the Conversion Date set forth therein the US Borrower shall convert, any US Prime Rate Loan, or LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> Loan or any portion thereof outstanding under the Facility D Credit (each a "**Converted Advance**") into another basis of funding in the same currency under the Facility D Credit (each a "**Conversion Advance**"). The provisions of this Agreement relating to US Prime Rate Advances and LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> Advances shall apply *mutatis mutandis* to Conversion Advances comprising US Prime Rate Advances and LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> Advances, respectively.

In the event that on such date of determination the aggregate of the Facility A Loan in CDollars <u>plus</u> the Equivalent Amount in CDollars of the Facility A Loan in USDollars exceeds the then Facility A Total Commitment (the "**Facility A Excess**"), then the Canadian Borrower shall within three (3) Business Days after notice of the amount of such Facility A Excess pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, the amount of such Facility A Excess, provided that nothing in this Section 8.10 shall operate to postpone any payment due hereunder.

If, on the date any such payment of a Facility A Excess is due, the aggregate Canadian Rate Loan and the Equivalent Amount in CDollars of the US Base Rate Loan and the LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> Loans under the Facility A Credit is less than the Facility A Excess, the Canadian Borrower shall place and maintain with the Administrative Agent an interest bearing deposit in the amount of such deficiency until such deficiency has been eliminated, at which time such deposit shall be returned to the Canadian Borrower, the whole subject to the compensation rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

8.11 <u>Calculation For Administrative Purposes</u> 

If for administrative purposes the Administrative Agent needs to calculate the Equivalent Amount in CDollars or USDollars of the amount of a prepayment or repayment denominated in USDollars or CDollars respectively, it shall do so using the rate for the purchase of CDollars or USDollars with USDollars or CDollars respectively, as quoted or published or otherwise made available by the Bank of Canada at 4:30 p.m., in effect on the first Business Day of the month in which such prepayment or repayment is required to be made. Nothing in this Section 8.11 shall be interpreted as modifying the obligation of the Borrower to repay in CDollars amounts owing in CDollars and in USDollars amounts owing in USDollars as contemplated in this Agreement, including without limitation in Section 12.6.

8.12 <u>Authority to Debit</u> 

In respect of all amounts payable by any Obligor under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, each Obligor hereby irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent or any Lender to withdraw from or debit, from time to time when such amounts are due and payable, any account of such Obligor maintained with the Administrative Agent or such Lender or any of their respective Affiliates for the purpose of satisfying payment thereof. If any such amounts are payable in a currency other than that in which an account is maintained, such Obligor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent or any Lender to withdraw from or debit such account with the Equivalent Amount in such currency of the account, together with any premium or cost of exchange payable in connection therewith.

8.13 <u>Sharing of Payments</u> 

Notwithstanding Section 19.2, prior to the occurrence and continuation of any Event of Default, as between the Lenders, the Swingline Lender and each Lender, the Swingline Lender may obtain any payment in any manner whatsoever in respect of the Swingline Loan, retain such payment and apply same against the Swingline Loan, and other amounts owing in respect thereof (including, without limitation, interest) and shall have no obligation to remit to or share with any Lender such payment. For greater certainty, a Swingline Loan does not include a Canadian Rate Advance or a US Base Rate Advance as described in Section 3.9.3 of this Agreement.

8.14 LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> <u>Loans – Rollovers and Deemed Conversions</u> 

At least three (3) Business Days prior to the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to each LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> Loan Portion, the relevant Borrower shall either (a) give a Notice of Conversion pursuant to Section 3.8 or 7.6, in the case of the Canadian Borrower, or Section 5.6 or Section 6.6, as applicable, in the case of the US Borrower, to convert such LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> Loan Portion into another basis of funding or (b) give a Notice of Rollover to select a new Interest Period in accordance with Section 9.8 applicable to such LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> Loan Portion commencing on the last day of such Interest Period or (c) give a Notice of Optional Repayment pursuant to Section 8.2, Section 8.4 or Section 8.6 to repay or prepay such LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> Loan Portion on the last day of such Interest Period. If the relevant Borrower fails to give a Notice of Conversion, a Notice of Rollover or a Notice of Optional Repayment in accordance with the foregoing or, having given such Notice of Optional Repayment, fails to repay or prepay such LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> Loan Portion on the last day of such Interest Period, then on the last day of the Interest Period in respect of such LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> Loan Portion, the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to have notified the Administrative Agent of its intention to convert the relevant LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> Loan Portion into a US Base Rate Loan, in the case of the Canadian Borrower, or a US Prime Rate Loan, in the case of the US Borrower, on the last day of the Interest Period with respect to such LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> Loan Portion and, on the last day of such Interest Period, such LIBO Rate <u>SOFR</u> Loan Portion shall be converted into a US Base Rate Loan or US Prime Rate Loan, as applicable and interest shall be payable thereon at the US Base Rate or the US Prime Rate, as applicable.

**BANKERS' ACCEPTANCES**

10.1 <u>Bankers' Acceptances</u> 

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Canadian Borrower may borrow from the Lenders on any Banking Day up to the amount of the Facility A Available Commitment of each Lender under the Facility A Credit or up to the amount of the Facility E Available Commitment of each Lender under the Facility E Credit by way of Bankers' Acceptances upon giving to the Administrative Agent prior written notice in accordance with Section 3.4 by means of a Notice of Borrowing, and provided that:

**119**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1.1 each Bankers' Acceptance is
 denominated in CDollars and the minimum aggregate amount of each Borrowing by way of Bankers'
 Acceptances shall be C$5,000,000 or in integral multiples of C$100,000 in excess of such
 minimum amount;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1.2 each Lender shall have received a
 Bankers' Acceptance or Bankers' Acceptances in the principal amount of such Lender's
 Proportionate Share of such Borrowing in due and proper form duly completed and executed
 by the Canadian Borrower, or each Lender on behalf of the Canadian Borrower pursuant to the
 provisions of Section 10.5, and presented for acceptance to such Lender prior to 10:00
 a.m. (Toronto time) on the Drawdown Date and the Acceptance Fee shall have been paid
 to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Lender, at or prior to such time;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1.3 each Bankers' Acceptance shall
 be stated to mature on a Banking Day no later than, in respect of the Facility A Credit,
 the Facility A Maturity Date and no later than, in respect of the Facility E Credit, the
 Facility E Maturity Date, and in each case which is one month, two months or three months
 from the date of its Acceptance, or, at the request of the Canadian Borrower and in the sole
 discretion of the Lenders, another period between thirty (30) and ninety (90) days (plus
 or minus up to two (2) days) from the date of its Acceptance, the whole subject to market
 availability;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1.4 no days of grace shall be permitted
 on any Bankers' Acceptance; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1.5 the aggregate face amount of the
 Bankers' Acceptances to be accepted by a Lender shall be determined by the Administrative
 Agent by reference to such Lender's Facility A Commitment or the Facility E Commitment,
 as applicable, except that, if the face amount of a Bankers' Acceptance which would
 otherwise be accepted by a Lender pursuant to a Borrowing would not for any reason be a whole
 multiple of C$100,000, such face amount shall be increased or reduced by the Administrative
 Agent in its sole discretion to the nearest whole multiple of C$100,000, as appropriate.

10.2 <u>Payments at Maturity and Rollovers</u> 

Prior to the maturity date of each Bankers' Acceptance, the Canadian Borrower shall either (a) give a Notice of Conversion pursuant to Section 3.8 to convert such Bankers' Acceptance into another basis of funding or (b) give a Notice of Rollover to the Administrative Agent requesting that the Loan or that part referred to in such notice outstanding by Bankers' Acceptance be renewed in the same form of Borrowing for a term commencing on the maturity date of such Bankers' Acceptance, and the provisions of this Agreement relating to Bankers' Acceptances shall apply *mutatis mutandis* to such renewal. If for any reason the Canadian Borrower fails to give a Notice of Conversion or a Notice of Rollover in accordance with the foregoing, it shall be deemed for all purposes to have received on the maturity date of each such Bankers' Acceptance a Canadian Rate Advance in an amount equal to the face value of each such Bankers' Acceptance (which Bankers' Acceptance shall be repaid with the proceeds of said Canadian Rate Advance) and it shall pay interest thereon at the Canadian Rate until repayment thereof in full by it, the whole notwithstanding the fact that any Bankers' Acceptances may be held by a Lender in its own right at maturity. The Canadian Borrower acknowledges, agrees and confirms with the Lenders that the records of each Lender in respect of payment of any Bankers' Acceptance by such Lender shall be binding on the Canadian Borrower and shall be conclusive evidence (in the absence of manifest error) of a Canadian Rate Advance to the Canadian Borrower and of an amount owing by the Canadian Borrower to such Lender. The Canadian Borrower further agrees that if an Event of Default shall occur prior to the date upon which any one or more Bankers' Acceptance issued by the Canadian Borrower is payable by a Lender, thereupon the Canadian Borrower shall provide such Lender with funds for the full face amount of all such Bankers' Acceptances, notwithstanding the fact that any such Bankers' Acceptance may be held by such Lender in its own right at maturity; <u>provided</u>, however, that if for any reason the Canadian Borrower fails to make such payment in respect of any Bankers' Acceptance, thereupon the Canadian Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have received a Canadian Rate Advance in an amount equal to the face amount of such Bankers' Acceptance and the Canadian Borrower shall pay interest thereon at the Canadian Rate until repayment thereof in full.

**120**

10.3 <u>BA Equivalent Advances</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.3.1 In the event a Lender is unable to
 accept Bankers' Acceptances, such Lender shall have the right at the time of accepting
 drafts to require the Canadian Borrower to accept an Advance from such Lender in lieu of
 the issue and acceptance of a Bankers' Acceptance requested by the Canadian Borrower
 to be accepted so that there shall be outstanding while the Bankers' Acceptances are
 outstanding BA Equivalent Advances from such Lender as contemplated herein. The principal
 amount of each BA Equivalent Advance shall be that amount which, when added to the face amount
 of interest (calculated at the Discount Rate) which will accrue during the BA Equivalent
 Interest Period shall be equal, at maturity, to the face amount of the drafts which would
 have been accepted by such Lender had it accepted Bankers' Acceptances. The "**BA Equivalent Interest Period**" for each BA Equivalent Advance shall be equal to the
 term of the drafts presented for acceptance as Bankers' Acceptances on the relevant
 Drawdown Date, Conversion Date or Rollover Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.3.2 On the relevant Drawdown Date, Conversion
 Date or Rollover Date, the Canadian Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent a fee
 equal to the Acceptance Fee which would have been payable to such Lender if it were a Lender
 accepting drafts having a term to maturity equal to the applicable BA Equivalent Interest
 Period and an aggregate face amount equal to the sum of the principal amount of the BA Equivalent
 Advance and the interest payable thereon by the Canadian Borrower for the applicable BA Equivalent
 Interest Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.3.3 The provisions of this Agreement
 dealing with Bankers' Acceptances shall apply, *mutatis mutandis*, to BA Equivalent
 Advances.

10.4 <u>Purchase of Bankers' Acceptances</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.4.1 Each Bankers' Acceptance issued
 pursuant to this Agreement shall be purchased by the Lender accepting such Bankers'
 Acceptance for the applicable Discounted Proceeds thereof. In each case, upon receipt of
 such Discounted Proceeds from the Lenders and upon fulfilment of the applicable conditions
 set forth in ARTICLE 13, the Administrative Agent shall make such funds available to
 the Canadian Borrower in accordance with this Agreement.

**121**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.4.2 Upon each issue of Bankers'
 Acceptances as a result of the conversion of outstanding Borrowings into Bankers' Acceptances
 or rollover of Bankers' Acceptances, the Canadian Borrower shall, concurrently with
 the conversion, pay in advance to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, the
 amount by which the face value of such Bankers' Acceptances exceeds the Discounted
 Proceeds of such Bankers' Acceptances, to be applied against the principal amount of
 the Borrowing being so converted. The Canadian Borrower shall at the same time pay to the
 Administrative Agent the applicable Acceptance Fee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.4.3 The Canadian Borrower acknowledges
 and agrees that each Lender may, at any time, arrange for its Participant or Eligible Assignee
 to accept and purchase Bankers' Acceptances hereunder. Any such acceptance by a Participant
 or Eligible Assignee shall be deemed to be an Acceptance by such Lender for the purposes
 of this Agreement.

10.5 <u>Power of Attorney</u> 

In order to facilitate issuance of Bankers' Acceptances pursuant hereto, in accordance with the instructions given from time to time by the Canadian Borrower, the Canadian Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender, and for this purpose appoints each Lender its lawful attorney, to complete and sign Bankers' Acceptances on its behalf, in handwritten or facsimile or mechanical signature or otherwise, and once so completed, signed and endorsed, and following acceptance of them as Bankers' Acceptances, to purchase, discount or negotiate such Bankers' Acceptances in accordance with the provisions of this ARTICLE 10, and to provide the net Discounted Proceeds to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions hereof. Drafts so completed, signed, endorsed and negotiated on behalf of the Canadian Borrower by any Lender shall bind the Canadian Borrower as fully and effectively as if so performed by an authorized officer of the Canadian Borrower. Each Lender shall maintain a record with respect to such instruments (i) received by it hereunder, (ii) voided by it for any reason, (iii) accepted by it hereunder and (iv) cancelled at their respective maturities. Each Lender agrees to provide such records to the Canadian Borrower promptly upon request and, at the request of the Canadian Borrower, to cancel such instruments which have been so completed and executed and which are held by such Lender and have not yet been issued hereunder. This Section 10.5 shall apply *mutatis mutandis* to any note or draft, if any, which may be issued from time to time to evidence a BA Equivalent Advance.

ARTICLE 11

**LETTERS OF CREDIT**

11.1 <u>Letter of Credit Commitment</u> 

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Issuing Bank, on behalf of the Lenders, and in reliance on the agreements of the Lenders set forth in Section 11.2, agrees to issue, for the account of the Canadian Borrower, Facility A Letters of Credit in CDollars or USDollars under the Facility A Credit on any Banking Day during the period from the date of this Agreement until the date occurring one month prior to the Facility A Maturity Date; <u>provided</u> that (i) the term of any Facility A Letter of Credit shall not exceed 365 days or end after the Facility A Maturity Date, (ii) the Letter of Credit Exposure in respect of such Facility A Letters of Credit shall not cause the then Facility A Available Commitment to be exceeded, (iii) the Letter of Credit Exposure of BMO as an Issuing Bank in respect of such Facility A Letters of Credit shall not exceed C$275,000,000, the Letter of Credit Exposure of Barclays Bank PLC in respect of such Facility A Letters of Credit shall not exceed C$25,000,000 and Barclays Bank PLC shall issue standby Letters of Credit only, and (iv) the total amount of issued and outstanding Facility A Letters of Credit does not exceed the amount set forth in Section 3.1.4. Each Facility A Letter of Credit shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank. The maximum Letter of Credit Exposure of BMO and Barclays Bank PLC as Issuing Banks set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 11.1 may be amended from time to time to reallocate the amount set forth in Section 3.1.4 between BMO and Barclays Bank PLC as Issuing Banks with the consent of BMO, Barclays Bank PLC and the Canadian Borrower and without the consent of any other Lender. No Issuing Bank shall be required to issue a Letter of Credit if such issuance would violate any policies of the Issuing Bank pertaining to letters of credit generally.

**122**

11.2 <u>Letter of Credit Participations</u> 

Each Issuing Bank irrevocably grants, and in order to induce each Issuing Bank to issue its Letters of Credit hereunder, each Lender irrevocably accepts and hereby purchases for its own account and risk from the applicable Issuing Bank, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, an undivided interest equal to such Lender's Facility A Participation in the applicable Issuing Bank's obligations and rights under each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and the amount of each drawing paid by the applicable Issuing Bank thereunder. Each Lender unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with each Issuing Bank that, on or before the close of business of the Issuing Bank, on each day on which a drawing is paid under a Letter of Credit for which the Issuing Bank is not reimbursed in full by the Canadian Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 11.8.1 (a "**Participation Date**"), such Lender will pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank at the Administrative Agent's office specified in Section 12.1 such Lender's Facility A Participation of any unpaid Reimbursement Obligation in respect of Facility A Letters of Credit. This obligation of each Lender is unconditional and, for greater certainty, shall apply both before and after the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, both before and after the Facility A Maturity Date and both before and after the termination or cancellation of the Facility A Total Commitment. Each Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent and each Lender of the occurrence of a Participation Date, and the amount payable by it to the Issuing Bank based on such Lender's Facility A Participation. Any such notice may be oral if promptly confirmed in writing (including telecopy). If any Lender fails to make any such payment on or prior to the first Business Day after such Lender receives notice as provided above, then interest shall accrue on such Lender's obligation to make such payment during the period from such Business Day to the day such Lender makes such payment (or if earlier, the date on which the Canadian Borrower reimburses the Issuing Bank for such unpaid Reimbursement Obligation) at the rate specified in Section 20.1.

**123**

11.3 <u>Repayment of Participants</u> 

Upon and only upon receipt by the applicable Issuing Bank of funds from the Canadian Borrower in full or partial reimbursement of any drawing paid under a Letter of Credit with respect to which any Lender has theretofore paid the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank in full for such Lender's Facility A Participation pursuant to Section 11.2 and in full or partial payment of interest, commissions or fees on such drawing paid under a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank will pay to such Lender, in the same funds as those received by such Issuing Bank, or net against any then due obligation of such Lender under Section 11.2 to make any payment to such Issuing Bank, such Lender's Facility A Participation of such funds.

11.4 <u>Role of the Issuing Bank</u> 

Each Issuing Bank will exercise and give the same care and attention to each Letter of Credit as it gives to its other letters of credit and similar obligations, and each Issuing Bank's sole liability to each Lender shall be to distribute pursuant to Section 11.3 promptly, as and when received by such Issuing Bank, each Lender's Facility A Participation of any payments made to such Issuing Bank by the Canadian Borrower. Each Lender agrees that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than as required by such Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of any Person delivering any such document. No Issuing Bank nor any of its representatives, officers, employees or agents shall be liable to any Lender for (a) any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Required Lenders, (b) any action taken or omitted to be taken in the absence of gross negligence or wilful misconduct, (c) any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in any document distributed to any Lender, (d) the creditworthiness of the Canadian Borrower, or (e) the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, or any other document contemplated thereby. No Issuing Bank shall incur any liability (i) by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement or other writing (which may be a bank wire, telecopier or similar writing) believed by it to be genuine or to be signed by the proper party or parties or (ii) by acting as permitted under Section 11.13. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and several, and no Lender shall be liable for the performance or non-performance of the obligations of any other Lender under this ARTICLE 11. In the event of gross negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Bank in the payment of any drawing under a Letter of Credit, such Issuing Bank shall repay to each Lender any amount paid by such Lender to such Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 11.2 which the Canadian Borrower has not reimbursed to such Issuing Bank strictly and solely as a result of such gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

11.5 <u>Obligations of Each Lender Absolute</u> 

Each Lender acknowledges that its obligations to each Issuing Bank under this ARTICLE 11, including the obligation to purchase and fund a participation in the obligations and rights of the Issuing Bank under each Letter of Credit and any unpaid Reimbursement Obligation, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, (i) the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, (ii) the fact that a condition precedent to the issuance of any Letter of Credit was not in fact satisfied, (iii) any failure or inability of any other Lender to purchase or fund such a participation hereunder, or (iv) any other failure by any other Lender to fulfil its obligations hereunder. Each payment by a Lender to an Issuing Bank for its own account or the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank shall be made without any offset, compensation, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

**124**

11.6 <u>Reinstatement and Survival</u> 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if an Issuing Bank is required at any time whether before or after the Facility A Maturity Date to make any payment under a Facility A Letter of Credit which was outstanding on or before the Facility A Maturity Date, each Lender shall pay over to the applicable Issuing Bank, in accordance with the provisions of this ARTICLE 11, the amount of such Lender's Facility A Participation of such amount. If an Issuing Bank is required at any time (whether before or after the Facility A Maturity Date) to return to the Canadian Borrower or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official any portion of the payments made by or on behalf of the Canadian Borrower to such Issuing Bank in reimbursement of Reimbursement Obligations and interest thereon, each Lender shall, on demand of such Issuing Bank, forthwith pay over to such Issuing Bank for its account or the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank such Lender's Facility A Participation of such amount, plus interest thereon from the day such demand is made to the day such amount is returned by such Lender to such Issuing Bank at the rate specified in Section 20.1.

11.7 <u>Procedure for Issuance and Renewal of Letters of Credit</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.7.1 The Canadian Borrower may request
 an Issuing Bank, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, to issue a Letter of Credit under
 the Facility A Credit by delivering to the Issuing Bank at its office specified from time
 to time to the Canadian Borrower a commercial letter of credit application or a standby letter
 of credit application or a letter of guarantee application, as appropriate, on the applicable
 Issuing Bank's then customary form for a commercial letter of credit or standby letter
 of credit or letter of guarantee respectively (each such form, as it may be modified from
 time to time, a "**Letter of Credit Application** "), completed to the satisfaction
 of such Issuing Bank, together with the proposed form of such Letter of Credit (which shall
 comply with the applicable requirements set forth herein) and such other certificates, documents
 and other papers and information as the Issuing Bank may reasonably request; <u>provided</u> that in the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the applicable Letter of Credit
 Application, this Agreement shall govern with respect to such conflict. In connection with
 a pending Permitted Acquisition, the Canadian Borrower may request the issuance of a Letter
 of Credit on behalf of a Person that is the subject of the pending Permitted Acquisition,
 provided that the Canadian Borrower shall remain liable for all obligations in respect of
 any such Letter of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.7.2 Within one (1) Business Day
 following the date on which the Administrative Agent shall have received a copy of an application
 for the issuance of a Facility A Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall advise
 the applicable Issuing Bank and the Borrower as to whether the issue of the requested Letter
 of Credit would result in the Letter of Credit Exposure in respect of Facility A Letters
 of Credit to exceed the then Facility A Available Commitment. If the Letter of Credit Exposure
 in respect of Facility A Letters of Credit would exceed the then Facility A Available Commitment
 as a result of the issuance of the requested Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall withdraw
 its request.

**125**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.7.3 Within three (3) Business Days
 following the date on which an Issuing Bank shall have received an application for the issuance
 of a Letter of Credit including the form thereof, and such additional certificates, documents
 and other papers and information as such Issuing Bank may have reasonably requested in satisfaction
 of all conditions to the issuance thereof, such Issuing Bank shall, provided the conditions
 of ARTICLE 13 have been complied with, issue such Letter of Credit (if the Canadian
 Borrower shall have requested that such Letter of Credit be issued immediately) or (if the
 Canadian Borrower shall have requested in the related Letter of Credit Application that such
 Letter of Credit be issued at a later date) the Administrative Agent shall notify the Canadian
 Borrower that the applicable Issuing Bank shall, provided the conditions of ARTICLE 13
 have been complied with, issue such Letter of Credit on such later date, or that the applicable
 Issuing Bank shall not issue such Letter of Credit by reason of a provision set forth herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.7.4 The Canadian Borrower may request
 the extension or renewal for up to 365 days of a Letter of Credit issued for its account
 hereunder which is not automatically renewed in accordance with the terms contained therein,
 by giving written notice to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank at least
 ten (10) Business Days prior to the then current expiry date of such Letter of Credit
 (provided that the Issuing Bank may accommodate notices on shorter notice in its sole discretion).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.7.5 With respect to any Letter of Credit
 issued hereunder which by its terms is automatically renewed or extended unless notice to
 the contrary is received by the beneficiary thereunder within the time period set forth therein
 (the "**Revocation Period** "), the applicable Issuing Bank shall, upon receipt
 of notice from the Administrative Agent (which notice must be received by the Issuing Bank
 not later than noon, Toronto time, ten (10) Business Days prior to the expiration of
 the Revocation Period), to the effect that the Required Lenders have elected not to extend
 the current expiry date of such Letter of Credit, promptly notify the Canadian Borrower and
 the beneficiary thereunder that such Letter of Credit shall not be renewed. Unless such notice
 from the Administrative Agent is received by the applicable Issuing Bank in respect of any
 Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit shall automatically be renewed or extended in accordance
 with its provisions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.7.6 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
 in this Agreement, (a) an Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to extend or renew any
 Letter of Credit issued hereunder to an expiry date extending beyond the Facility A Maturity
 Date or at any time when a Default or an Event of Default has occurred which has not been
 waived or cured and (b) no Lender shall have any obligation to purchase a participation
 in an Issuing Bank's obligations and rights under any Letter of Credit extended or
 renewed to a date beyond the Facility A Maturity Date.

**126**

11.8 <u>Reimbursement of the Issuing Bank</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.8.1 In the event that any drawing shall
 be made under any Facility A Letter of Credit, and if no Event of Default shall have occurred

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.8.1.2 the payment by the applicable Issuing
 Bank of such drawing shall constitute a Canadian Rate Advance under the Facility A Credit

 if such Letter of Credit was in CDollars, or a US Base Rate Advance under the Facility A
 Credit to the Canadian Borrower by the Lenders according to their respective Facility A Participation
 if such Letter of Credit was in USDollars and the Canadian Borrower shall pay interest thereon
 at the Canadian Rate or at the US Base Rate respectively;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.8.1.3 the applicable Issuing Bank shall
 notify each Lender by telecopier or by telephone (confirmed by telecopier) of such drawing
 and of the portion thereof constituting a Canadian Rate Advance and of the portion thereof
 constituting a US Base Rate Advance, and immediately upon receipt of such notice, each Lender
 shall make its Facility A Participation, in CDollars or USDollars, as applicable, available
 to the Issuing Bank by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the office of such
 Issuing Bank specified in such notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.8.2 In the event that a drawing shall
 be made under any Letter of Credit and a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and
 is continuing (without having been cured or waived as provided in this Agreement), no Canadian
 Rate Advance or US Base Rate Advance, as applicable, shall be deemed to have been made in
 respect of such drawing and the Canadian Borrower (i) shall reimburse the applicable
 Issuing Bank for the amount paid on each drawing under each Letter of Credit not later than
 the close of business on the day on which the Canadian Borrower receives notice of such drawing,

 applicable Issuing Bank (solely for the account of the such Issuing Bank) a non-refundable

 Credit is outstanding, and (B) the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender,

Interest accrued hereunder shall be payable on demand. For the purposes of computing the number of days for which interest shall accrue on amounts disbursed under Letters of Credit, payments received by the Issuing Bank after 1:00 P.M., Toronto time, shall be deemed to have been received on the next following Banking Day for payments required to be made in CDollars or on the next following Business Day for payments required to be made in USDollars. All payments (including prepayments) by the Canadian Borrower to an Issuing Bank, whether on account of the Canadian Borrower's Reimbursement Obligation or interest thereon, on account of any fees due hereunder or otherwise, shall be made in the currency of the Letter of Credit and in immediately available funds without set off, compensation or counterclaim to the Issuing Bank.

 rate during such extension.

11.12 <u>Further Assurances</u> 

The Canadian Borrower hereby agrees from time to time, to do and perform any and all acts and to execute any and all further instruments required or reasonably requested by an Issuing Bank to more fully effect the purposes of this ARTICLE 11 and the issuance of the Letters of Credit hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.13.1 The obligations of the Canadian
 Borrower hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and
 irrespective of any set off, compensation, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Canadian
 Borrower may have or have had against an Issuing Bank, any Lender or any beneficiary of a
 Letter of Credit. The Canadian Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of the
 users of the Letters of Credit and all risks of the misuse of the Letters of Credit. No Issuing
 Bank, any of its correspondents nor any Lender shall be responsible: (i) for the form,

 any applications for any of the Letters of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be
 in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) for
 the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to
 transfer or assign any of the Letters of Credit or any of the rights or benefits thereunder
 or proceeds thereof in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for
 any reason; (iii) for failure of any drawing to bear any reference or adequate reference
 to any of the Letters of Credit, or failure of anyone to note the amount of any drawing on
 the reverse of any of the Letters of Credit or to surrender or to take up any of the Letters
 of Credit or to send forward any such document apart from drawings as required by the terms
 of any of the Letters of Credit; (iv) for error, omissions, interruptions or delays
 in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, email, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise,
 whether or not they be in cipher; (v) for any error, neglect, default, suspension or
 insolvency of any correspondents of the Issuing Bank; (vi) for error in translation
 or for errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vii) for any loss or delay, in

 a Letter of Credit; <u>provided</u> that in each of the circumstances referred to in clauses
 (i) through (viii) above the Canadian Borrower shall have, nevertheless and notwithstanding
 the foregoing, a claim against the applicable Issuing Bank, and the applicable Issuing Bank
 shall be liable to the Canadian Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct,
 as opposed to indirect, damages suffered by the Canadian Borrower which the Canadian Borrower
 proves were caused by such Issuing Bank's wilful misconduct or gross negligence. None
 of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the rights or powers of
 the Issuing Bank or any of the Lenders.

**129**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.13.2 In furtherance and extension and
 not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove in this ARTICLE 11 set forth,
 (i) any action taken or omitted by an Issuing Bank or by any of its respective correspondents
 under or in connection with any of the Letters of Credit, if taken or omitted in good faith
 and without wilful misconduct or gross negligence, shall be binding upon the Canadian Borrower
 and shall not put the applicable Issuing Bank or its respective correspondents under any
 resulting liability to the Canadian Borrower and (ii) an Issuing Bank may, without wilful
 misconduct or gross negligence, accept documents that appear on their face to be in order,
 without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information
 to the contrary; <u>provided</u>, that if the applicable Issuing Bank shall receive written
 notification from both the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit and the Canadian Borrower that
 sufficiently identifies (in the opinion of such Issuing Bank) documents to be presented to
 such Issuing Bank which are not to be honoured, such Issuing Bank agrees that it will not
 honour such documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.13.3 The Canadian Borrower hereby agrees
 at all times to protect, indemnify and save harmless each Issuing Bank and each Lender participating
 in a Letter of Credit, from and against any and all claims, actions, suits and other legal
 proceedings, and from and against any and all losses, claims, demands, liabilities and damages,
 which they or any of them may, at any time, sustain or incur by reason of or in consequence
 of or arising out of the issuance of any of the Letters of Credit issued for its account
 (all of the foregoing, collectively, the "**indemnified liabilities** "), it
 being the intention of the parties that this Agreement shall be construed and applied to
 protect and indemnify each Issuing Bank and each Lender participating in a Letter of Credit
 against any and all risks involved in the issuance of all of the Letters of Credit, all of
 which risks, whether or not foreseeable, being hereby assumed by the Canadian Borrower, including,
 without limitation, any and all risks of all acts by any Governmental Authority and any and
 all claims by correspondents used in connection with a Letter of Credit, provided that the
 Canadian Borrower shall not have any obligation hereunder to an indemnified party with respect
 to indemnified liabilities arising from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such
 indemnified party. No Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall, in any way, be liable for any failure
 by it or anyone else to pay a draft drawn under any of the Letters of Credit as a result
 of any acts, whether rightful or wrongful, of any Governmental Authority or any correspondent
 used in connection with a Letter of Credit or any other cause not readily within their control
 or the control of their respective correspondents. Without limiting the generality of the
 foregoing, the Canadian Borrower shall be responsible for, and shall reimburse the applicable
 Issuing Bank forthwith upon its receipt of any demand therefor, any and all commissions,
 fees and other charges paid or payable by such Issuing Bank to any foreign bank which shall
 be an advising bank or a beneficiary of a Letter of Credit issued for its account which shall,
 in reliance thereon, have issued its own letter of credit in respect of obligations of the
 Canadian Borrower.

**130**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.13.4 The Canadian Borrower agrees that
 any terms and conditions in any Letter of Credit Application shall also apply in respect
 of the Letter of Credit issued pursuant to such application; <u>provided</u> that in the
 event of a conflict between this Agreement and the applicable Letter of Credit Application,
 this Agreement shall govern with respect to such conflict.

11.14 <u>Payments upon any Event of Default</u> 

The Canadian Borrower agrees that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, in addition to all other rights and remedies, each Issuing Bank shall at the request, or may with the consent of the Required Lenders, by notice to the Canadian Borrower demand immediate delivery of cash collateral and the Canadian Borrower agrees to deliver such cash collateral upon demand, in an amount equal to the maximum amount that may be available to be drawn at any time prior to the stated expiry of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower, provided that such cash collateral shall be immediately due and payable upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 16.1.8. Such cash collateral shall be deposited in a special cash collateral account to be held by the applicable Issuing Bank as collateral security and as a pledge for the payment and performance of the Canadian Borrower's obligations under this Agreement to each Issuing Bank and the Lenders under the Facility A Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.1 If the Administrative Agent notifies
 a Lender or Swingline Lender, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender
 or Swingline Lender (any such Lender, Swingline Lender or other recipient, a "**Payment Recipient**") that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion
 (whether or not after receipt of any notice under Section 12.13.2) that any funds received
 by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously
 transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient
 (whether or not known to such Lender, Swingline Lender or other Payment Recipient on its
 behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal,
 interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an "**Erroneous Payment**") and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof),
 such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent
 and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the
 Administrative Agent, and such Lender or Swingline Lender shall (or, with respect to any
 Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient
 to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative
 Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand
 was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon
 in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof)
 was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative
 Agent in same day funds at the greater of: (i) in respect of an Erroneous Payment in
 U.S. Dollars, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and in respect of an Erroneous Payment in
 Canadian Dollars or any other currency at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the overnight
 rate at which Canadian Dollars or funds in the currency of such Erroneous Payment, as the
 case may be, may be borrowed by the Administrative Agent in the interbank market in an amount
 comparable to such Erroneous Payment (as determined by the Administrative Agent); and (ii) a
 rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on
 interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent
 to any Payment Recipient under this Section 12.13.1 shall be conclusive, absent manifest
 error.

**136**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.2 Without limiting Section 12.13.1,
 each Lender or Swingline Lender, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender
 or Swingline Lender, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment
 (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution
 or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates): (i) that is
 in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment,
 prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with
 respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; (ii) that was not preceded or accompanied
 by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any
 of its Affiliates); or (iii) that such Lender, Swingline Lender or other such recipient,
 otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or
 in part) in each case:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.2.1 (A) in the case of clauses
 (i) or (ii) of Section 12.13.2, an error shall be presumed to have been made
 (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an
 error has been made (in the case of clause (iii) of Section 12.13.2), in each case,
 with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.2.2 such Lender or Swingline Lender
 shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to)
 promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify
 the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details
 thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant
 to this Section 12.13.2.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.3 Each Lender or Swingline Lender
 hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts
 at any time owing to such Lender or Swingline Lender under any Loan Document, or otherwise
 payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender or Swingline Lender from
 any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under Section 12.13.1
 or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

**137**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.4 In the event that an Erroneous Payment
 (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand
 therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 12.13.1, from any Lender
 or Swingline Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or
 from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its
 respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an "**Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency** "),
 upon the Administrative Agent's notice to such Lender or Swingline Lender at any time:
 (i) such Lender or Swingline Lender shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but
 not its individual Commitment) with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the
 "**Erroneous Payment Impacted Class**") in an amount equal to the Erroneous
 Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify)
 (such assignment of the Loans (but not individual Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted
 Class, the "**Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment**") at par plus any
 accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent
 in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrowers) deemed to execute and deliver
 an Assignment and Assumption (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an
 Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an electronic platform approved by the
 Administrative Agent and as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants)
 with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment; (ii) the Administrative
 Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency
 Assignment; (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee
 Lender shall become a Lender or Swingline Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to
 such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender or assigning Swingline
 Lender shall cease to be a Lender or Swingline Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect
 to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its
 obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its individual Commitment
 which shall survive as to such assigning Lender or assigning Swingline Lender; and (iv) the
 Administrative Agent may reflect in the applicable register its ownership interest in the
 Loans, subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may,
 in its discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment
 and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing
 by the applicable Lender or Swingline Lender shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the
 sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other
 rights, remedies and claims against such Lender or Swingline Lender (and/or against any recipient
 that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment
 Deficiency Assignment will reduce the individual Commitment of any Lender or Swingline Lender
 and such individual Commitments of the Lenders and Swingline Lender shall remain available
 in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that,
 except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired
 pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Administrative
 Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated
 to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender or Swingline Lender under the Loan
 Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the "**Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights** ").

**138**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.5 The parties hereto agree that an
 Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any of the
 Obligations owed by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent
 such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment
 that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers or any
 other Loan Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.6 To the extent permitted by applicable
 law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby
 waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment
 with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return
 of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based
 on "discharge for value" or any similar doctrine.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.7 Each party's obligations,
 agreements and waivers under this Section 12.13 shall survive the resignation or replacement
 of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement
 of, a Lender or Swingline Lender, the termination of the individual Commitment of a Lender
 and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof)
 under any Loan Document.

 Borrower elects to cause a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Material Subsidiary to deliver
 guarantees and Security Documents (to the extent applicable) and a joinder agreement to become
 a party to this Agreement by delivering a written notice of such election to the Administrative
 Agent, the Administrative Agent may dispense with the need for delivery of such additional
 documents, reports and opinions as it reasonably determines acceptable in the circumstances
 for such Restricted Subsidiary including the cost and burden of requiring such deliverables
 outweighing the benefit thereof, provided, however, that if such additional documents, reports
 and opinions are not delivered, such Restricted Subsidiary shall not be included for purposes
 of determining whether the Minimum Guarantor Requirement has been satisfied;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.1.1 <u>Conduct of Business</u>: It will
 undertake its business: (i) substantially in accordance with the annual financial forecast
 submitted by the Canadian Borrower to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 14.1.2.6

 Acquisition in Canada or the U.S. provided that such bank accounts may be maintained only
 for a period of twelve (12) months following the Permitted Acquisition and thereafter for
 an additional six (6) months solely for the purpose of facilitating receipt of customer
 payments by direct deposits, clearance of cheques drawn on such bank accounts prior to such
 date and similar transitional purposes and shall deposit amounts to such bank accounts solely
 to the extent required to satisfy obligations in respect of outstanding cheques drawn on
 such bank accounts, and (c) such other accounts which are subject to an account control
 agreement satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or as otherwise approved by the Administrative
 Agent; <u>provided</u>, however, that it shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, within

 to the Facility C Maturity Date, maintain a bank account in the U.S. with BMO denominated

 Subject to Section 14.1.9.7, the Canadian Borrower may at any time after the Closing
 Date designate (or re-designate) any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary
 or designate (or re- designate, as the case may be) any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted
 Subsidiary; <u>provided</u> that (i) immediately before and after such designation (or
 re-designation), no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) no
 Subsidiary which is, or which is required to be, a "Restricted Subsidiary" under
 the Term Loan Agreement may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, and (iii) the
 investment resulting from the designation of such Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary
 as described in the immediately succeeding sentence is permitted by Section 14.3.15.
 The designation of any Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall constitute an investment
 by the Canadian Borrower therein at the date of designation in an amount equal to the fair
 market value as determined by the Canadian Borrower in good faith of the Canadian Borrower's
 or a Subsidiary's (as applicable) investment therein. The designation of any Unrestricted
 Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute the incurrence at the time of designation
 of any Indebtedness or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time and a return on any
 investment by the Canadian Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary in Unrestricted Subsidiaries
 pursuant to the preceding sentence in an amount equal to the fair market value as determined
 by the Canadian Borrower in good faith at the date of such designation of the Canadian Borrower's
 or a Subsidiary's (as applicable) investment in such Subsidiary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.1.6 <u>AML Legislation</u>. The Borrowers
 acknowledge that, pursuant to the *Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act* (Canada) and other applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist financing, anti-corruption,
 government sanction and "know your client" laws (collectively, including any
 guidelines or orders thereunder, "**AML Legislation"),** the
 Lenders and the Administrative Agent may be required to obtain, verify and record information
 regarding the Borrowers, the Guarantors, their directors, authorized signing officers, direct
 or indirect shareholders or other Persons in control of the Borrowers and the Guarantors,
 and the transactions contemplated hereby.

**153**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.1.6.1 The Borrowers shall promptly provide
 all such information, including supporting documentation and other evidence, as may be reasonably
 requested by any Lender or the Administrative Agent, or any prospective assignee or Participant
 of a Lender or the Administrative Agent, in order to comply with any applicable AML Legislation,
 whether now or hereafter in existence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.1.6.2 The Borrowers agree to cooperate
 with the Administrative Agent and each Lender and provide them with all information that
 may be reasonably required in order to fulfil their obligations under AML Legislation. Without
 limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower agrees to use commercially reasonable
 efforts to obtain the consent of any of their respective officers, directors and employees
 whose consent to the disclosure of any such information is required under applicable privacy
 legislation under Applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.1.6.3 Each of the Lenders agrees that
 the Administrative Agent has no obligation to ascertain the identity of either Borrower or
 the Guarantors or any authorized signatories of either Borrower or a Guarantor on behalf
 of any Lender, or to confirm the completeness or accuracy of any information it obtains from
 the Borrowers or any Guarantor or any such authorized signatory in doing so.

14.2 <u>Financial Covenants and Cure Action</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.2.1 So long as any amount owing under
 this Agreement or the other Loan Documents remains unpaid, or the Swingline Lender has any
 obligation under this Agreement or any Lender has any Commitment under this Agreement, and
 unless consent is given in accordance with Section 24.3, the Canadian Borrower shall
 maintain the following ratios on a consolidated basis:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.2.1.1 <u>Total Net Funded Debt to Adjusted EBITDA</u>: at all times, a Leverage Ratio, determined quarterly on the last day of each
 fiscal quarter of the Canadian Borrower on the basis of the last four completed fiscal quarters
 of the Canadian Borrower on such date,(i) for a period of four complete fiscal quarters
 of the Borrower following completion of a Material Acquisition, equal to or less than 6.0:1,
 and (ii) at all other times, equal to or less than 5.75:1; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.2.1.2 <u>Interest Coverage Ratio</u>:
 at all times, an Interest Coverage Ratio, determined quarterly on the last day of each fiscal
 quarter of the Canadian Borrower on the basis of the last four completed fiscal quarters
 of the Canadian Borrower on such date, equal to or greater than 3.0:1.

**154**

The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall verify such ratios as of the end of each fiscal quarter of the Canadian Borrower at the time of delivery of the certificate required to be delivered pursuant to Section 14.1.2.2.3 and in accordance with Applicable Accounting Principles, and within 10 Business Days of any written request therefor by the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.2.2 In the event of any Event of Default
 of the financial covenant set forth in Section 14.2.1 (the "**Financial Covenants** "),
 any proceeds from the issuance of equity received from the shareholders of the Canadian Borrower
 within ten (10) Business Days of the Canadian Borrower being required to deliver the
 financial statements as provided for in Section 14.1.2.2.2 and Section 14.1.2.2
 will, at the written request of the Canadian Borrower, be included in the calculation of
 Adjusted EBITDA solely for the purposes of determining compliance with such Financial Covenants
 at the end of the applicable fiscal quarter and any subsequent period that includes such
 fiscal quarter (any such equity contribution, a "**Cure Action** "); <u>provided</u> that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.2.2.1 the amount of any Cure Action and
 the use of proceeds therefrom will be no greater than the amount required to cause the Canadian
 Borrower to be in compliance with the Financial Covenants;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.2.2.2 all Cure Actions and the use of
 proceeds therefrom will be disregarded for all other purposes under the Loan Documents (including,
 to the extent applicable, calculating Adjusted EBITDA for purposes of determining basket
 levels and other items governed by reference to Adjusted EBITDA or that include Adjusted
 EBITDA in the determination thereof in any respect);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.2.2.3 (i) there shall be no more
 than four (4) Cure Actions made during the term of this Agreement, (ii) a Cure
 Action may not be made more than twice in any four fiscal quarter period; and (iii) the
 proceeds of all Cure Actions must be actually received by the Canadian Borrower; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.2.2.4 to the extent that the Canadian
 Borrower has applied the aggregate proceeds of a Cure Action to repay the Facility A Credit,
 the Facility C Credit and the Facility D Credit (which repayment shall be made proportionately
 in accordance with the principal amount outstanding under the Facility A Credit (excluding
 Facility A Letters of Credit), the Facility C Credit and the Facility D Credit at the time
 of such repayment), or a portion thereof (a "**Repayment** "), such Repayment
 shall be ignored for purposes of determining the amount of Debt of the Obligors for purposes
 of calculating the Financial Covenants set forth in Section 14.2.1 until such time that
 the Cure Action ceases to be included in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA pursuant to the
 provisions of this Section 14.2.2.

**155**

The Canadian Borrower shall provide notice to the Administrative Agent of its intention to cause to be made a Cure Action prior to the date the financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 14.1.2.2.2 and Section 14.1.2.2. If, after giving effect to the recalculations set forth in this Section 14.2.2, the Canadian Borrower shall then be in compliance with the Financial Covenants, the Canadian Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of the Financial Covenants and the applicable breach or default of the Financial Covenants that had occurred shall be deemed cured for the purposes of this Agreement. Nothing contained herein shall be interpreted to restrict the Administrative Agent and the Lenders from accelerating the Obligations following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 16.1.4 as a result of the occurrence of any Event of Default other than in respect of the Financial Covenant that is addressed as a consequence of a Cure Action being made.

14.3 <u>Negative Covenants</u> 

So long as any amount owing under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents remains unpaid or the Swingline Lender has any obligation under this Agreement or any Lender has any Commitment under this Agreement and, unless consent is given in accordance with Section 24.3, the Obligors shall not and the Canadian Borrower shall cause its Restricted Subsidiaries not to:

 included in calculating the amount of Indebtedness permitted under Section 14.3.1.3; <u>provided</u> that (i) except as provided above, the amount of such Indebtedness is
 not increased at the time of such refinancing, refunding, renewal or extension except by
 an amount equal to a reasonable premium or other reasonable amount paid, and fees and expenses
 reasonably incurred, in connection with such refinancing and by an amount equal to any existing
 commitments unutilized thereunder and (ii) the terms relating to principal amount, amortization,
 maturity, collateral (if any) and subordination (if any), and other material terms taken
 as a whole, of any such refinancing, refunding, renewing or extending Indebtedness, and of

 favourable in any material respect to the Canadian Borrower or the Lenders than the terms
 of any agreement or instrument governing the Indebtedness being refinanced, refunded, renewed
 or extended and the interest rate applicable to any such refinancing, refunding, renewing
 or extending Indebtedness does not exceed then applicable market interest rate;

 any amendment to the provisions of the Term Loan Agreement to provide for additional Subsidiary
 guarantees, collateral security, financial covenants, affirmative or restrictive covenants
 or events of default which make the provisions of the Term Loan Agreement more restrictive
 or more favourable in any material respect to the lenders under the Term Loan Agreement than
 the corresponding covenant or Event of Default or requirement set forth in this Agreement
 unless the Canadian Borrower agrees to make comparable amendments to this Agreement and the
 Loan Documents if so requested by the Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.3.18 <u>Burdensome Agreements</u>: Enter
 into or permit to exist any Contractual Obligation (other than this Agreement or any other
 Loan Document or the Term Loan Agreement) that limits the ability of (a) any Subsidiary
 which is not an Obligor to make Distributions to (directly or indirectly) or to make or repay
 loans or advances to any Obligor or (b) any Obligor to create, incur, assume or suffer
 to exist Liens on property of such Person for the benefit of the Lenders with respect to
 any Facility and the Obligations under the Loan Documents; <u>provided</u> that the foregoing
 clauses (a) and (b) shall not apply to Contractual Obligations that are permitted
 under the Term Loan Agreement and any Contractual Obligations permitted under the Term Loan
 Agreement shall also be permitted under this Agreement, notwithstanding if and to the extent
 that the Term Loan Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms.

14.4 <u>Insurance</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.4.1 <u>Insurance:</u> In addition to any
 and all requirements in any Security Documents, each Obligor shall effect and maintain, at
 its expense, insurance on its Assets of an insurable nature for the full replacement cost
 thereof against loss or damage by fire, theft, flood, explosion, sprinklers, collision and
 such other risks (including loss of profit) as are customarily insured against by Persons
 engaged in businesses similar to that of such Obligor in similar locations with such companies,
 in such amounts and under policies in such form as shall be satisfactory to the Administrative
 Agent, and such other insurance as the Administrative Agent may require. Evidence satisfactory
 to the Administrative Agent of such insurance and all renewals and replacements thereof shall
 be delivered to the Administrative Agent forthwith on request, together with evidence of
 payment of all premiums therefor. Each insurance policy shall contain an endorsement, in
 form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent, showing loss under such insurance
 policy payable to the Administrative Agent, in each case for the benefit of the Lenders.
 Such endorsement, or an independent instrument furnished to the Administrative Agent, shall
 contain a standard mortgage clause, shall provide that the insurance company shall endeavour
 (without liability for failure to do so) to give the Administrative Agent at least thirty
 (30) days written notice before any such policy of insurance is cancelled or coverage thereunder
 is reduced and that no act, whether wilful or negligent, or default of any Obligor or any
 other Person shall affect the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to recover
 under such policy of insurance in case of loss or damage. Each Obligor hereby directs all
 insurers under such policies of insurance to pay all proceeds payable thereunder directly
 to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders; provided, however that prior to the occurrence
 of an Event of Default, payments by the insurer of any claim in excess of C$250,000 shall
 be made to the joint order of the Administrative Agent and the relevant Obligor and payments
 of any other claim may be made alone to the relevant Obligor, as the case may be. Each Obligor
 irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent (and all officers, employees
 or agents designated by the Administrative Agent) as its true and lawful attorney and mandatary
 for the purpose of making, settling and adjusting claims under such policies of insurance,
 endorsing the name of such Obligor on any cheque, draft, instrument or other item of payment
 for the proceeds of such policies of insurance and making all determinations and decisions
 with respect to such policies of insurance.

**169**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.4.2 <u>Public Liability</u>: Each Obligor
 shall effect and maintain, at its expense, such public liability and third party property
 damage insurance as is customary for Persons engaged in businesses similar to that of such
 Obligor with such companies and in such amounts, with such deductibles and under policies
 in the form as shall be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Evidence of such insurance
 and all renewals and replacements thereof shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent
 on request, together with evidence of payment of all premiums therefor. Each such policy
 shall provide that the insurance company shall endeavour (without liability for failure to
 do so) to give the Administrative Agent at least thirty (30) days written notice before any
 such policy shall be altered or cancelled.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.4.3 <u>Failure to insure</u>: Should
 any Obligor at any time or times hereafter fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies
 of insurance required above or in any of the Security Documents, or to pay any premium in
 whole or in part relating thereto, then the Administrative Agent, without waiving or releasing
 any obligation or default by such Obligor hereunder, may (but shall be under no obligation
 to) obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premiums and take such other
 actions with respect thereto as the Administrative Agent deems advisable. All sums disbursed
 by the Administrative Agent in connection with any such actions, including, without limitation,
 court costs, expenses, other charges relating thereto and reasonable attorneys' fees,
 shall be payable on demand by such Obligor to the Administrative Agent, for its own account
 and, until paid, shall bear interest at the Canadian Rate if owing in CDollars or the US
 Base Rate, if owing in USDollars.

**170**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.4.4 <u>Notice of loss</u>: Each Obligor
 shall promptly give notice to the Administrative Agent of any loss or damage by fire, theft,
 flood, explosion, sprinklers, collision or otherwise to its assets where the assets affected
 by such loss or damage are worth more than C$5,000,000.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.4.5 <u>Application of Insurance Proceeds</u>:
 So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (a) each Obligor
 shall be entitled to make, settle and adjust claims under its policies of insurance and (b) the
 Administrative Agent agrees that if it receives proceeds of insurance with respect to any
 damage or loss of Assets it will, at the request of such Obligor, deposit such proceeds to
 the account of the Canadian Borrower and to be dealt with in accordance with the provisions
 of this Agreement. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and for so long as it is continuing,
 (a) all proceeds of insurance with respect to any damage to or loss of Collateral shall
 be paid to the Administrative Agent, to be applied as the Required Lenders may, in their
 sole discretion, decide, (b) each Obligor shall cooperate with the Administrative Agent
 in the making, settlement and adjustment of claims and (c) any proceeds of insurance
 received by any Obligor shall be held by it for the benefit and as mandatary of and in trust
 for the Administrative Agent and shall be forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent.

ARTICLE 15

**SECURITY DOCUMENTS**

15.1 <u>Security Documents</u> 

In the event that the Canadian Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Canadian Borrower provides a Lien against any of its Assets as security for obligations of the Canadian Borrower under the Term Loan Agreement or in accordance with the provisions of the Term Loan Agreement, such Obligor concurrently shall provide an equivalent Lien, ranking *pari passu* with the Lien in favour of the Term Loan Lenders or their Affiliates, for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

15.2 <u>Applicability of Security Documents</u> 

Each of the Security Documents existing or entered into on the date of this Agreement is hereby amended to the extent necessary to (i) provide that each Security Document is entered into for the benefit of the Secured Parties and that the Obligor has entered into the Security Document with or in favour of Bank of Montreal as agent for and on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties, and (ii) exclude from the Collateral (as defined in the applicable Security Document) the Excluded Assets. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of any Security Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern. The Canadian Borrower and each of the Guarantors hereby confirms that each of the Guarantees and the Security Documents continues in full force and effect, as amended by this Section 15.2, for the payment and performance when due of all Obligations. Each of the Security Documents is a "Credit Support Document" for purposes of each Permitted Hedging Agreement (other than Permitted Hedging Agreements with lenders that are lenders under the Term Loan Agreement and not Lenders hereunder or Lenders under the Original Credit Agreement) and is security for all of the Obligations, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and the validity of the Guarantees and Security Documents shall not be affected by any termination of this Agreement, any Bank Product or any Permitted Hedging Agreement but shall continue until all Obligations have been fully satisfied and this Agreement, all Loan Documents, all Bank Products provided by Lenders and all Permitted Hedging Agreements have been terminated unless otherwise agreed by the Lenders and Hedge Providers which are parties thereto.

15.3 <u>Security on Material Real Property</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.3.1 Security Documents registered, filed
 and recorded against Material Real Property shall, unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative
 Agent, secure an amount of C$2,000,000,000 provided that Security Documents registered, filed
 and recorded against Material Real Property which has a net book value of less than C$150,000,000
 and were registered prior to the date hereof need not be amended to increase the stated amount
 of the mortgage from that amount recorded as secured as of the date recorded.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.3.2 In the case of any Material Real
 Property, in addition to the Security Documents relating to such Material Real Property,
 the Canadian Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.3.2.1 evidence that counterparts of the
 relevant Security Documents have been duly executed, acknowledged and delivered and are in
 form suitable for filing or recording in all filing or recording offices that the Administrative
 Agent may deem reasonably necessary or desirable in order to create a valid and perfected
 Lien on such Material Real Property in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit
 of the Secured Parties and that all filing and recording taxes and fees have been paid or
 otherwise provided for in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.3.2.2 fully paid American Land Title
 Association Lender's Extended Coverage title insurance policies or the equivalent or
 other form available in each applicable jurisdiction (the "**Mortgage Policies** ")
 in form and substance, with customary endorsements available in the applicable jurisdiction
 and in amount, reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (not to exceed the value
 (as determined in good faith by the Canadian Borrower) of the real properties covered thereby),
 issued, coinsured and reinsured by title insurers reasonably acceptable to the Administrative
 Agent, insuring the Security Documents to be valid subsisting Liens on the real property
 described therein in the ranking or the priority of which it is expressed to have within
 the Security Documents, subject only to Permitted Liens, and providing for such other affirmative
 insurance (including endorsements for future advances under the Loan Documents) and such
 coinsurance and direct access reinsurance as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request
 and is available in the applicable jurisdiction at ordinary rates;

**172**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.3.2.3 to the extent reasonably requested
 by the Administrative Agent, customary legal opinions from local counsel for the Obligors
 in provinces or states in which such Material Real Property is located, with respect to,
 without limitation, the enforceability and perfection of the Security Documents and any related
 fixture filings;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.3.2.4 as promptly as practicable after
 the reasonable request therefor by the Administrative Agent, surveys and any then completed
 Phase I type environmental assessment reports; <u>provided</u> that the Administrative Agent
 may in its reasonable discretion accept any such existing survey to the extent prepared as
 of a date reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; <u>provided</u>, however,
 that there shall be no obligation to deliver to the Administrative Agent any environmental
 site assessment report whose disclosure to the Administrative Agent would require the consent
 of a Person other than the Canadian Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries, where, despite the
 commercially reasonable efforts of the Canadian Borrower to obtain such consent, such consent
 cannot be obtained;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.3.2.5 "Life-of-Loan" Federal
 Emergency Management Agency Standard Flood Hazard Determinations with respect to each parcel
 of improved Material Real Property located in the United States and subject to a Security
 Document (together with notice about special flood hazard area status and flood disaster
 assistance, duly executed by the applicable Obligor), and in the event that any parcel of
 improved Material Real Property located in the United States that is subject to a Security
 Document is located in a flood hazard area, evidence of flood insurance in an amount as required
 by Applicable Law and reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.3.2.6 such other evidence that all other
 actions that the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem necessary or desirable in order
 to create valid and subsisting Liens on the real property described in the Security Documents
 have been taken.

16.2 <u>Effect of a Default</u> 

Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall at the request, or may with the consent, of the Required Lenders, by notice to the Obligors (i) declare the Total Commitment and the obligation of each of the Lenders to make Advances to the Canadian Borrower or the US Borrower to be terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate, and/or (ii) declare the Loan, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other amounts payable by the Obligors under or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Loan, all such accrued interest and all such other amounts shall become and be forthwith immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Obligors. Thereupon the Obligors shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent all such amounts due and payable. In addition to the foregoing, if an Event of Default pursuant to Section 16.1.8 shall occur, the Total Commitment and the obligation of each Lender to make Advances shall automatically be terminated and the Loan, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other amounts payable by the Obligors under or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall automatically be and become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Obligors, and thereupon the Obligors shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent all such amounts due and payable. For greater certainty, the Obligors will be considered to be in default of their obligations hereunder by the mere lapse of time provided for performing such obligations, without any requirement of further notice or other act of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders unless a notice is specifically required hereunder. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent on behalf of itself and the Lenders shall at the request of, or may with the consent of, the Required Lenders immediately exercise all rights and remedies they may have under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and by law, all without any additional notice, presentment, demand, protest, notice of dishonour, entering into possession of any of the property or other Assets, or any other action, of all of which are expressly waived by the Obligors.

**176**

16.3 <u>Remedies Cumulative; No Waiver</u> 

For greater certainty, it is expressly understood and agreed that the rights and remedies of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are in addition to, not in substitution for, any rights or remedies provided by law; no failure on the part of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right or remedy hereunder or thereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Lenders or the Administrative Agent of any right or remedy for a default or breach of any term, covenant, condition or agreement herein contained prejudice or preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy for the same or any other default or breach and shall not waive, alter, affect or prejudice any other right or remedy.

16.4 <u>Clean Up Period</u> 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, during the period commencing on the closing date of any Permitted Acquisition or investment and ending on the date 30 days thereafter (the "Clean Up Period") (a) any breach or default of any representation or warranty under ARTICLE 2 or any other Loan Document or a covenant under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (b) any Event of Default, will be deemed not to be a breach of representation or warranty or covenant or an Event of Default (as the case may be) if (i) it would have been (if it were not for this Section 16.4) a breach or default of any representation or warranty or covenant or an Event of Default only by reason of circumstances relating exclusively to the target, the target group or the property and assets of another Person or assets constituting a business unit, line of business or division of such Person in connection with such Permitted Acquisition or investment (or any obligation to procure or ensure in relation to such target, target group or the property and assets or business unit, line of business or division); (ii) it is capable of remedy and reasonable steps are being taken to remedy it; (iii) the circumstances giving rise to it have not been procured by or approved by the Canadian Borrower; and (iv) it would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. If the relevant circumstances are continuing on or after the date immediately following the end of the Clean Up Period, there shall be a breach of representation or warranty, breach of covenant or Event of Default, as the case may be, notwithstanding the above (and without prejudice to the rights and remedies of the Lenders as set forth in Section 16.2 hereof).

**JUDGMENT CURRENCY**

17.1 <u>Judgment Currency</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17.1.1 If for any purpose, including the
 obtaining of judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder from the
 currency in which it is payable (the "**Payment Currency**") into another
 currency (the "**Judgment Currency** "), the parties hereto agree, to the fullest
 extent that they may lawfully and effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall
 be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the Administrative Agent
 could purchase the Payment Currency with the Judgment Currency in the New York foreign exchange
 market on the Business Day preceding the date of final judgment or other determination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17.1.2 The obligation of the Obligors in
 respect of any sum due from any of them to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent hereunder
 shall, notwithstanding any judgment or payment in a currency other than the Payment Currency,
 be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative
 Agent of any sum so paid or adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency the Administrative
 Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase the Payment Currency with
 the amount of the Judgment Currency so paid or adjudged to be due; if the amount in the Payment
 Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Lenders and the Administrative
 Agent in the Payment Currency, the Obligors agree, as a separate obligation and additional
 cause of action and notwithstanding any such payment or judgment, to indemnify the Lenders
 and the Administrative Agent against such loss and if the amount in the Payment Currency
 so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent in
 the Payment Currency, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent agree to remit to the Obligors
 such excess.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17.1.3 The term "rate of exchange"
 in this Section 17.1 means the spot rate at which the Administrative Agent, in accordance
 with normal practices, is able on the relevant date to purchase the Payment Currency with
 the Judgment Currency and includes any premium and costs of exchange payable in connection
 with the purchase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.1.1 <u>Increased Costs Generally</u>. If any Change in Law shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.1.1.1 impose, modify or deem applicable
 any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against
 assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by,
 any Lender;

**178**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.1.1.2 subject any Lender to any Tax of
 any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation
 in a Letter of Credit or any Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments
 to such Lender in respect thereof, except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by
 Section 18.2 and the imposition, or any change in the rate, of any Excluded Tax payable
 by such Lender; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.1.1.3 impose on any Lender or any applicable
 interbank market any other condition, cost or expense 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 of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank 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 or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then upon request of such Lender the Canadian Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.1.2 <u>Capital Requirements</u>. If any
 Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such
 Lender or such Lender's holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements or
 liquidity has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's
 capital or on the capital of such Lender's holding company, if any, as a consequence
 of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or the Letters of
 Credit issued or participated in by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender
 or its holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration
 such Lender's policies and the policies of its holding company with respect to capital
 adequacy), then from time to time the Canadian Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional
 amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or its holding company for any such reduction
 suffered.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.1.3 <u>Certificates for Reimbursement</u>.
 A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such
 Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph 18.1.1 or 18.1.2
 of this ARTICLE 18, including reasonable detail of the basis of calculation of the amount
 or amounts, and delivered to the Canadian Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
 The Canadian Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate
 within 10 days after receipt thereof.

**179**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.1.4 <u>Delay in Requests</u>. Failure
 or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this ARTICLE 18
 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's right to demand such compensation, except
 that the Canadian Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this
 ARTICLE 18 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months
 prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Canadian Borrower of the Change in Law giving
 rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender's intention to claim
 compensation therefore, unless the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions
 is retroactive, in which case the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to
 include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

18.2 <u>Taxes</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.2.1 <u>Payments Subject to Taxes</u>.
 If any Obligor, the Administrative Agent, or any Lender is required by Applicable Law to
 deduct or pay any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) in respect of any payment
 by or on account of any obligation of an Obligor hereunder or under any other Loan Document,
 then (i) the sum payable shall be increased by that Obligor when payable as necessary
 so that after making or allowing for all required deductions and payments (including deductions
 and payments applicable to additional sums payable under this ARTICLE 18) the Administrative
 Agent or Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received
 had no such deductions or payments been required, (ii) the Obligor shall make any such
 deductions required to be made by it under Applicable Law and (iii) the Obligor shall
 timely pay the full amount required to be deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority
 in accordance with Applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.2.2 <u>Payment of Other Taxes by the Canadian Borrower</u>. Without limiting the provisions of paragraph 18.2.1 above, the Canadian
 Borrower and the US Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental
 Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.2.3 <u>Indemnification by the Canadian Borrower</u>. The Canadian Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender,
 within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other
 Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable
 to amounts payable under this ARTICLE 18) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender
 and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
 whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or
 asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment
 or liability <u>containing reasonable details as to the calculation thereof</u> delivered
 to the Canadian Borrower 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.

**180**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.2.4 <u>Evidence of Payments</u>. As soon
 as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by an Obligor to a Governmental
 Authority, the Obligor 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.2.5 <u>Status of Lenders</u>. Any Foreign
 Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law
 of the jurisdiction in which the Canadian Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty
 to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other
 Loan Document shall, at the request of the Canadian Borrower, deliver to the Canadian Borrower
 (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by Applicable
 Law or reasonably requested by the Canadian Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly
 completed and executed documentation prescribed by Applicable Law as will permit such payments
 to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, (a) any
 Lender, if requested by the Canadian Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver
 such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Canadian
 Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Canadian Borrower or the Administrative
 Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to withholding or information reporting
 requirements, and (b) any Lender that ceases to be, or to be deemed to be, resident
 in Canada for purposes of Part XIII of the *Income Tax Act* (Canada) or any successor
 provision thereto shall within five days thereof notify the Canadian Borrower and the Administrative
 Agent in writing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.2.6 <u>Treatment of Certain Refunds and Tax Reductions</u>. If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion,
 that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified
 by the Canadian Borrower or with respect to which an Obligor has paid additional amounts
 pursuant to this ARTICLE 18 or that, because of the payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes,
 it has benefited from a reduction in Excluded Taxes otherwise payable by it, it shall pay
 to the Canadian Borrower or Obligor, as applicable, an amount equal to such refund or reduction
 (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Canadian
 Borrower or Obligor under this ARTICLE 18 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving
 rise to such refund or reduction), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative
 Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any net after-Tax
 interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). The Canadian
 Borrower or Obligor as applicable, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender,
 agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Canadian Borrower or Obligor (plus any penalties,
 interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative
 Agent or such Lender if the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such
 refund or reduction to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed
 to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any
 other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Canadian Borrower
 or any other Person, to arrange its affairs in any particular manner or to claim any available
 refund or reduction.

**181**

18.3 <u>Mitigation Obligations: Replacement of Lenders</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.3.1 <u>Designation of a Different Lending Office</u>. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 18.1, or requires the
 Canadian Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority
 for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 18.2, then such Lender shall 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 18.1 or 18.2, 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 Canadian Borrower
 hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection
 with any such designation or assignment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.3.2 <u>Replacement of Lenders</u>. If
 any Lender requests compensation under Section 18.1, if the Canadian Borrower is required
 to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account
 of any Lender pursuant to Section 18.2, or if any Lender's obligations are suspended
 pursuant to Section 18.4, then the Canadian Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort,
 upon 10 days' notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, or if any Lender
 defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then the Canadian Borrower may, at its
 sole expense and effort, upon 10 days' notice to the Administrative Agent (and without
 prior notice to such Lender), require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse
 (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by,
 ARTICLE 23), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the
 related other Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee
 may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.3.2.1 the Borrower pays the Administrative
 Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 23.2.7;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.3.2.2 the assigning Lender receives payment
 of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in disbursements
 under Letters of Credit, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable
 to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any breakage costs and amounts
 required to be paid under this Agreement as a result of prepayment to a Lender) from the
 assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the
 Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

**182**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.3.2.3 in the case of any such assignment
 resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 18.1 or payments required to be
 made pursuant to Section 18.2, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation
 or payments thereafter; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.3.2.4 such assignment does not conflict
 with Applicable Law.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Canadian Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

18.4 <u>Illegality</u> 

If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to make or maintain any Loan (or to maintain its obligation to make any Loan), or to participate in, issue or maintain any Letter of Credit (or to maintain its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to determine or charge interest rates based upon any particular rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender with respect to the activity that is unlawful shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if conversion would avoid the activity that is unlawful, convert any Loans, or take any necessary steps with respect to any Letter of Credit in order to avoid the activity that is unlawful. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

18.5 <u>Inability to Determine Rates</u> <u>Etc</u> <u>(Bankers' Acceptances)</u> <u>.</u> 

If the Required Lenders determine that for any reason a market for Bankers' Acceptances does not exist at any time or the Lenders cannot for other reasons, after reasonable efforts, readily sell Bankers' Acceptances or perform their other obligations under this Agreement with respect to Bankers' Acceptances, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Canadian Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the Canadian Borrower's right to request the acceptance of Bankers' Acceptances shall be and remain suspended until the Required Lenders determine and the Administrative Agent notifies the Canadian Borrower and each Lender that the condition causing such determination no longer exists. Upon receipt of such notice, the Canadian Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing, conversion or continuation of Bankers' Acceptances or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a borrowing of Canadian Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. If the Required Lenders determine that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the LIBO Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBO Rate Loan, or that the LIBO Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBO Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Canadian Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBO Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a borrowing, conversion or continuation of LIBO Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a borrowing of US Base Rate Loans, in the case of the Canadian Borrower, or US Prime Rate Loans, in the case of the US Borrower, in the amount specified therein.

**183**

<u>18.6</u> <u>Alternate Rate of Interest (CDOR Discontinuation)</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>18.6.1</u> <u>If the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have determined, that:</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>18.6.1.1</u> <u>adequate and reasonable means do not exist for</u> <u>ascertaining the CDOR Rate, including because the CDOR Page of Refinitiv Benchmark Services Limited is not available or published on a current basis for the applicable term and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary;</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>18.6.1.2</u> <u>the administrator of the CDOR Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the CDOR Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be made available or permitted to be used for determining the interest rate of loans;</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>18.6.1.4</u> <u>syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section 18.6, are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt</u> <u>a new benchmark interest rate to replace the</u> <u>CDOR Rate,</u> 

<u>then reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt</u> <u>by the Administrative Agent of</u> <u>such notice, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may mutually agree upon a successor rate to the CDOR Rate, and the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the CDOR Rate with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein), giving due consideration to</u> <u>any evolving or then existing convention for similar Canadian Dollars denominated</u> <u>syndicated credit facilities</u> <u>for such alternative benchmarks (any such proposed rate, a "**CDOR Successor Rate**"), together with any proposed CDOR Successor Rate conforming changes and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders do not accept such amendment.</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>18.6.2</u> <u>If no CDOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under 18.6.1 exist or a CDOR Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable)</u> <u>, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender.

If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in such advance. If the Lender does not do so forthwith, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon at the interest rate applicable to the advance in question. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that has failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute the amount due to the Lenders. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender 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 determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with prevailing banking industry practice on interbank compensation.

ARTICLE 21

**AGENCY**

21.1 <u>Appointment and Authority.</u> 

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints BMO as the Administrative Agent to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have the authority <u>(a)</u> to enter into any joinder agreement on behalf of the Lenders and on its own behalf entered into pursuant to Section 14.1.9 by a Person who has become a Subsidiary of the Canadian Borrower for the purpose of becoming a Guarantor under this Agreement<u>, and (b) to enter into any joinder agreement to the Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of the Lenders and on its own behalf</u>. The provisions of this ARTICLE 21 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, and no Obligor shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

21.2 <u>Rights as a Lender.</u> 

The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with any Obligor or any Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account to the Lenders.

21.3 <u>Exculpatory Provisions</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.3.1 The Administrative Agent shall not
 have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan
 Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.3.1.1 shall not be subject to any fiduciary
 or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.3.1.2 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 in the Loan Documents),
 but 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 Applicable Law; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.3.1.3 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 the Canadian 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.

**198**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.3.2 The Administrative Agent shall not
 be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request
 of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as is necessary,
 or as the Administrative Agent believes in good faith is necessary, under the provisions
 of the Loan Documents) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or wilful
 misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default
 unless and until notice describing the Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the
 Canadian Borrower or a Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.3.3 Except as otherwise expressly specified
 in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty
 to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or
 in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any
 certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder 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, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this
 Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the
 satisfaction of any condition specified in this Agreement, other than to confirm receipt
 of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

21.4 <u>Reliance by Administrative Agent</u> 

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 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 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 of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Bank 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 Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

21.5 <u>Indemnification of Administrative Agent</u> 

Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and hold it harmless (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), rateably according to its Applicable Percentage (and not jointly or jointly and severally) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel, which may be incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or the transactions therein contemplated. However, no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses resulting from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

**199**

21.6 <u>Delegation of Duties</u> 

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 from among the Lenders (including the Person serving as Administrative Agent) and their respective Affiliates. 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 provisions of this Article and other provisions of this Agreement for the benefit of the Administrative Agent 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 credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

21.7 <u>Replacement of Administrative Agent</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.7.1 The Administrative Agent may at any
 time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Canadian Borrower.
 Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right,
 to appoint a successor acceptable to the Borrowers acting reasonably, which shall be a Lender
 having a Commitment to a revolving credit if one or more is established in this Agreement
 and having an office in Toronto, Ontario or Montréal, Québec, or an Affiliate
 of any such Lender with an office in Toronto or Montréal. The Administrative Agent
 may also be removed at any time by the Required Lenders upon 30 days' notice to the
 Administrative Agent and the Canadian Borrower as long as the Required Lenders, in consultation
 with the Canadian Borrower, appoint and obtain the acceptance of a successor within such
 30 days, which shall be a Lender having a Commitment to a revolving credit if one or more
 is established in this Agreement and having an office in Toronto or Montréal, or an
 Affiliate of any such Lender with an office in Toronto or Montréal.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.7.2 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, then the retiring
 Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent
 meeting the qualifications specified in Section 21.7.1, provided that if the Administrative
 Agent shall notify the Canadian Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted
 such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance
 with such notice and (1) the retiring 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
 under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold
 such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed)
 and (2) 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 directly, until such
 time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above
 in the preceding paragraph.

**200**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.7.3 Upon 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 former Administrative Agent, and
 the former Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations
 hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided
 in the preceding paragraph). The fees payable by the Canadian Borrower to a successor Administrative
 Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between
 the Canadian Borrower and such successor. After the termination of the service of the former
 Administrative Agent, the provisions of this ARTICLE 21 and of ARTICLE 22 shall
 continue in effect for the benefit of such former 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 former Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

21.8 <u>Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders</u> 

Each Lender and the Issuing Bank 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 the Issuing Bank 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.

21.9 <u>Collective Action of the Lenders</u> 

Each of the Lenders hereby acknowledges that to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, any collateral security and the remedies provided under the Loan Documents to the Lenders are for the benefit of the Lenders collectively and acting together and not severally and further acknowledges that its rights hereunder and under any collateral security are to be exercised not severally, but by the Administrative Agent upon the decision of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for in the Loan Documents). Accordingly, notwithstanding any of the provisions contained herein or in any collateral security, each of the Lenders hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not be entitled to take any action hereunder or thereunder including, without limitation, any declaration of default hereunder or thereunder but that any such action shall be taken only by the Administrative Agent with the prior written agreement of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for in the Loan Documents). Each of the Lenders hereby further covenants and agrees that upon any such written agreement being given, it shall co- operate fully with the Administrative Agent to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the absence of instructions from the Lenders and where in the sole opinion of the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably and in good faith, the exigencies of the situation warrant such action, the Administrative Agent may without notice to or consent of the Lenders take such action on behalf of the Lenders as it deems appropriate or desirable in the interest of the Lenders.

**201**

21.10 <u>No Other Duties. Etc.</u> 

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Bookrunners, Arrangers or holders of similar titles, if any, specified in this Agreement 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 or a Lender hereunder.

22.2 <u>Indemnification by the Canadian Borrower</u> 

The Canadian Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and the Issuing Bank, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an "**Indemnitee**") against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by any Obligor arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance or non-performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation or non-consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any Obligor, or any Environmental Claims or liability under Environmental Laws related in any way to any Obligor, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by an Obligor and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a 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 non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Canadian Borrower or any other Obligor against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee's obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Obligor has obtained a final and non-appealable judgment in its favour on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, nor shall it be available in respect of matters specifically addressed in Sections 18.1, 18.2 and 22.1.

**202**

22.3 <u>Reimbursement by Lenders</u> 

To the extent that the Canadian Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 22.1 or 22.2 to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Issuing Bank 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 Issuing Bank or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender's Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the Issuing Bank 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 Issuing Bank in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 22.3 are subject to the other provisions of this Agreement concerning several liability of the Lenders.

22.4 <u>Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc.</u> 

To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Obligors shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for indirect, consequential, punitive, aggravated or exemplary damages (as opposed to direct damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby (or any breach thereof), the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. 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.

**203**

 and is continuing or in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning
 Lender's Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment

 (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

**204**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.2.2 each partial assignment shall be made

 Bank (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless the Person that is
 the proposed assignee is itself already a Lender with a Commitment under that credit;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.2.4 any assignment must be approved by
 the Administrative Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.2.4.1 in the case of an assignment of
 a Commitment relating to a revolving credit, the proposed assignee is itself already a Lender
 with the same type of Commitment,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.2.4.2 no Event of Default has occurred
 and is continuing, and the assignment is of a Commitment relating to a non-revolving credit
 that is fully advanced, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.2.4.3 the proposed assignee is a bank

 assignee is an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender or (ii) a
 Default has occurred and is continuing;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.2.6 after giving effect to any assignment,
 the Commitment of and the aggregate principal amount of Loans held by Affiliated Lenders
 and Affiliated Debt Funds shall not exceed the Affiliated Lender Cap; <u>provided</u> that
 each of the parties hereto agrees and acknowledges that the Administrative Agent shall not
 be liable for any losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits,
 costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever incurred or suffered by
 any Person in connection with any compliance or non-compliance with this Section 23.2.6
 or any purported assignment exceeding the Affiliated Lender Cap; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.2.7 the parties to each assignment shall
 execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with
 a processing and recordation fee in an amount equal to C$5,000 and the Eligible Assignee,
 if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative
 Questionnaire and each Assignment and Assumption shall include a representation by the assignee
 that it is an Eligible Assignee.

**205**

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 23.3, 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 other Loan Documents, including any collateral security, 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 ARTICLE 18 and ARTICLE 22, and shall continue to be liable for any breach of this Agreement by such Lender, with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 23.4. Any payment by an assignee to an assigning Lender in connection with an assignment or transfer shall not be or be deemed to be a repayment by the Borrower or a new Loan to the Borrower.

23.3 <u>Register</u> 

The Administrative Agent shall maintain at one of its offices in Toronto, Ontario or Montréal, Québec 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 Commitments of, and principal amounts 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 Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

23.4 <u>Participations</u> 

Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, an Obligor or any Affiliate of an Obligor) (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); <u>provided</u> 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 Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any payment by a Participant to a Lender in connection with a sale of a participation shall not be or be deemed to be a repayment by the Borrower or a new Loan to the Borrower.

**206**

Subject to Section 23.5, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of ARTICLE 18 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 23.2. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 19.1 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 19.2 as though it were a Lender.

23.5 <u>Limitations upon Participant Rights</u> 

A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 18.1 and 18.2 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower's prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 18.2 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 18.2.5 as though it were a Lender.

23.6 <u>Certain Pledges</u> 

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, but 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.

23.7 <u>Related Party Lenders and Former Lenders</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.7.1 The Facility A Commitment, Facility
 C Commitment, Facility D Commitment and Facility E Commitment of the Affiliated Lenders and
 Affiliated Debt Funds in the aggregate at any time shall not be more than 25% of the Facility
 A Total Commitment, Facility C Total Commitment, Facility D Total Commitment and Facility
 E Total Commitment, respectively (the "**Affiliated Lender Cap** ").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.7.2 Notwithstanding anything in the definition

 for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders have (A) consented (or not
 consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to
 any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Obligor therefrom, or any plan
 of arrangement or any reorganization pursuant to Debtor Relief Laws, (B) otherwise acted

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.3.2 <u>Non-Consenting Lenders</u>: In the
 event that in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or

 the consent of Lenders having at least 90% of the Total Commitment, the Facility A Total
 Commitment, the Facility C Total Commitment, the Facility D Total Commitment or the Facility
 E Total Commitment, as applicable, shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more
 of such other Lenders (each a "**Non-Consenting Lender**") whose consent is
 required shall not have been obtained; then, with respect to each Non-Consenting Lender (the
 "**Terminated Lender**") the Canadian Borrower may, by giving written notice
 to the Agent and any Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated
 Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign and delegate, and
 delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained
 in, and consents required by, ARTICLE 23), to all of its interests, rights and obligations
 under this Agreement and the related other Loan Documents in full to one or more Eligible
 Assignees (each a "**Replacement Lender**") in accordance with the provisions
 of this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.3.2.1 the Canadian Borrower pays the
 Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 23.2.7;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.3.2.2 on the date of such assignment,
 the Terminated Lender receives payment of an amount (the "**Terminated Lender Payout Amount**") equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in
 disbursements under Letters of Credit, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other
 amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any breakage
 costs and amounts required to be paid under this Agreement as a result of prepayment to a
 Lender) from the Replacement Lender (to the extent of such outstanding principal of its Loans
 and participations in disbursements under Letters of Credit, accrued interest and accrued
 fees) or the Canadian Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

**210**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.3.2.3 on the date of such assignment,
 the Canadian Borrower shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated Lender in respect
 to any costs pursuant to Section 12.10.3 or otherwise owed as a consequence of such
 repayment or otherwise as if it were a prepayment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.3.2.4 each Replacement Lender shall consent,
 at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Lender
 was a Non-Consenting Lender; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.3.2.5 such assignment does not conflict
 with Applicable Law;

provided further that the Canadian Borrower may not make such election with respect to any Terminated Lender that is also the Issuing Bank unless, prior to the effectiveness of such election, the Canadian Borrower shall cause each outstanding Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank to be cancelled or cash collateralized or otherwise supported in a manner satisfactory to the Issuing Bank. Upon the payment of the Terminated Lender Payment Amount owing to any Terminated Lender and the assignment or termination of such Terminated Lender's Commitment under the relevant Credit or Credits, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a "Lender" with respect to such Credit for purposes hereof; <u>provided</u>, any rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender. Should there not be Replacement Lenders available to take an assignment of the outstanding Advances and the Commitment of the Non-Consenting Lender, the Canadian Borrower shall be entitled to make payment of the Terminated Lender Payout Amount in full to the Non- Consenting Lender and terminate its Commitment under the relevant Credit or Credits from proceeds derived exclusively from the issuance of Equity Interests of the Canadian Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.3.3 <u>Partial Release</u>: The Administrative
 Agent may from time to time without notice to or the consent of the Lenders execute and deliver
 partial releases of the Security Documents from time to time in respect of  **<u>(i)</u>** any
 item of Collateral to the extent its disposal is expressly permitted in this Agreement or
 in respect of Collateral having an aggregate value (as disclosed to the Administrative Agent
 in writing by the Obligor which is the owner thereof) of less than C$5,000,000 in any fiscal
 year of the Canadian Borrower <u>or (ii) any Guarantor to the extent the release or discharge of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee and any Security Documents delivered by it if it ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted by this Agreement (including as a result of a Guarantor (other than the Borrowers) being designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.3.4 <u>Approval by Required Lenders</u>:
 Except for the matters described in Sections 24.3.1 and 24.3.2 and subject to any other provision
 of this Agreement which specifically requires the consent of each Lender for a matter, any
 action to be taken or decision to be made by the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement (specifically
 including for greater certainty the issuance of a demand for payment of the Obligations or
 the provision of any waiver in respect of a breach of any covenant) shall be effective if
 approved by Required Lenders pursuant to ARTICLE 21; and any such decision or action shall
 be final and binding upon all the Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.3.5 <u>Matters Affecting only One Facility</u>:

 only the Facility A Credit, only the Facility C Credit, only the Facility D Credit or only
 the Facility E Credit shall be approved solely by the Lenders with Commitments under such
 credit.

24.4 <u>Severability</u>

The obligations of each of the Lenders are independent from one another, are not joint and several, and may not be increased, reduced, extinguished or otherwise affected due to the default of another Lender pursuant hereto. Any default of any party hereto in the performance of its obligations shall not release any of the other parties hereto from the performance of any of their respective obligations.

24.6 <u>Sharing of Information</u> 

Each Obligor agree that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may share (i) amongst themselves and their respective Affiliates which any of them may possess concerning any Obligor in respect of its undertakings, obligations or indebtedness towards any Lender pursuant to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or otherwise, as well as any payment received from any Obligor by any Lender and (ii) amongst themselves and any lenders under the Term Loan Agreement any information relating to the Loan Documents, the Term Loan Agreement and any "Loan Documents" as such term is defined therein and any amendments, waivers, consents, defaults or events of default thereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may disclose to any Lender and any Obligor any information contained in any notices, consents, certificates, documents or other instruments or writings delivered to it under or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose such information to any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap, derivative, credit-linked note or similar transaction relating to the Canadian Borrower or any other Obligor and the Obligations, or any insurance or reinsurance company that is providing or potentially providing a Lender with insurance in respect of such Lender's interest in the Credit.

**212**

24.7 <u>Use of Credit</u> 

Each Borrower acknowledges that any loan and financial assistance hereby provided is for the exclusive use of the Borrowers and the other Obligors and can only be used for their legitimate business purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.

In this Agreement, in the computation of a period of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word "from" means "from and including" and the words "to" and "until" each means "to but excluding".

1.3 <u>Headings and **Table of Contents**</u> 

The headings of Articles and Sections and the table of contents are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

1.4 <u>References</u> 

Unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires, all references to Sections, Articles and Schedules are to Sections, Articles and Schedules in this Agreement.

1.5 <u>Singular and Plural; Gender</u> 

In this Agreement, where the context admits, the singular includes the plural and vice versa; and gender is used as a reference term only and applies with the same effect whether the parties are of masculine or feminine gender, corporate or other form.

1.6 <u>Applicable Accounting Principles</u> 

Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any accounting term used in this Agreement shall have the meaning customarily given such term in accordance with Applicable Accounting Principles and all financial computations hereunder shall be computed in accordance with Applicable Accounting Principles consistently applied. That certain items or computations are explicitly modified by the phrase "in accordance with Applicable Accounting Principles" shall in no way be construed to limit the foregoing. If any Accounting Changes (as defined below in this Section 1.6) occur and such changes result in a change in the calculation of the financial covenant set forth in Section 14.2.1, standards or terms used in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, then the Canadian Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree to enter into negotiations in good faith in order to amend such provisions of this Agreement so as to equitably reflect such Accounting Changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating Canadian Borrower's and the Obligors' financial condition shall be substantially the same after such Accounting Changes as if such Accounting Changes had not been made; <u>provided</u>, however, that the agreement of Required Lenders to any required amendments of such provisions shall be sufficient to bind all Lenders. "**Accounting Changes**" means (i) changes in accounting principles required by the promulgation of any rule, regulation, pronouncement or opinion by the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (or successor thereto or any agency with similar functions), (ii) changes in accounting principles concurred in by the Canadian Borrower's Auditors, (iii) the reversal of any reserves established as a result of purchase accounting adjustments, and (iv) the adoption after the date hereof by the Group of Canadian accounting standards for private enterprises or US GAAP. All such adjustments resulting from expenditures made subsequent to the date hereof (including capitalization of costs and expenses or the payment of liabilities incurred prior to the date hereof) shall be treated as expenses in the period the expenditures are made and deducted as part of the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA in such period. If the Canadian Borrower and the Required Lenders agree upon the required amendments (and all other Obligors shall be deemed to agree to such amendments so agreed to by the Canadian Borrower), then after appropriate amendments have been executed and the underlying Accounting Change with respect thereto has been implemented, any reference to Applicable Accounting Principles contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Documents shall, only to the extent of such Accounting Change, refer to Applicable Accounting Principles, consistently applied after giving effect to the implementation of such Accounting Change. Until such time as the Canadian Borrower and the Required Lenders agree upon the required amendments, all financial statements delivered and all calculations of the financial covenant and other standards and terms in accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be prepared, delivered and made without regard to the underlying Accounting Change.

1.7 <u>Pro Forma Calculations</u> 

For purposes of calculating Adjusted EBITDA, Consolidated Total Assets and any financial ratios or tests, including the ratio of Net Funded Secured Debt to Adjusted EBITDA, Total Net Funded Debt to Adjusted EBITDA and compliance with covenants determined by reference to Adjusted EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets, Municipal Waste Contracts and Put- or-Pay Agreements that have been entered into and Specified Transactions (and the incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness in connection therewith) that have been made, in each case, (i) during the applicable period or (ii) subsequent to such period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, Consolidated Total Assets or any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a pro forma basis (x) assuming that all such Municipal Waste Contracts and Put-or-Pay Agreements shall have been entered into and all such Specified Transactions (and any increase or decrease in Adjusted EBITDA and Consolidated Total Assets and the component financial definitions used therein attributable to any Specified Transaction) had occurred on the first day of the applicable period and (y) including projected and not yet realized revenue and projected and not yet accrued costs, expenses and other charges or liabilities pursuant to any such Municipal Waste Contracts and Put-or-Pay Agreements. If since the beginning of any applicable period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Canadian Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such period shall have entered into any Municipal Waste Contract or Put-or-Pay Agreements or made any Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this section, then the financial ratios, Adjusted EBITDA and Consolidated Total Assets shall be calculated to give pro forma effect thereto in accordance with this Section 1.7. For greater certainty, with respect to adjustments to Adjusted EBITDA with respect to any Municipal Waste Contract or Put-or-Pay Agreement, (a) Projected Run Rate EBITDA shall be used for each 12-month period commencing on the later of (1) the date of execution of the contract and (2) nine months and one day prior to the Service Commencement Date and ending on that date which is three months after the Service Commencement Date, (b) for any 12-month period ending more than three months after the Service Commencement Date but not more than 15 months after the Service Commencement Date, actual EBITDA generated by and attributable to the relevant contract shall be included for each month which is more than three months after the Service Commencement Date and Projected Run Rate EBITDA, pro-rated for the balance of the relevant 12-month period, shall be used for each month in such period ended on the last day of the third month after the Service Commencement Date (such that Adjusted EBITDA determined at the end of the fourth month following the Service Commencement Date shall be the sum of actual EBITDA for such fourth month plus 11/12 of the 12-month Projected Run Rate EBITDA), and (c) for any 12-month period ending more than 15 months after the Service Commencement Date, only actual EBITDA shall be used and there shall be no adjustment with respect to the relevant contract. To avoid duplication, the actual EBITDA generated during the 12-month period ending three months after the Service Commencement Date shall be deducted from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA for the relevant contract.

**72**

Whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a Municipal Waste Contract, a Put-or-Pay Agreement or a Specified Transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Canadian Borrower and may include, for the avoidance of doubt, (x) projected and not yet realized revenue and projected and not yet accrued costs, expenses and other charges or liabilities pursuant to any such Municipal Waste Contracts and Put-or-Pay Agreements and (y) the amount of "run rate" cost savings, operating expense reductions, restructuring charges and expenses and cost synergies projected by the Canadian Borrower in good faith to be realized as a result of specified actions taken or committed to be taken (calculated on a pro forma basis as though such cost savings, operating expense reductions, restructuring charges and expenses and cost synergies had been realized on the first day of such period and as if such cost savings, operating expense reductions, restructuring charges and expenses and cost synergies were realized during the entirety of such period) relating to such Municipal Waste Contract or Put-or-Pay Agreement or Specified Transaction, and "run rate" means the full recurring benefit for a period that is associated with any action taken or committed to be taken (including any savings expected to result from the elimination of a public target's compliance costs with public company requirements), net of the amount of actual benefits realized during such period from such actions; <u>provided</u> that (A) with respect to clause (y) above, such amounts are reasonably identifiable and factually supportable (in the good faith determination of the Canadian Borrower), (B) with respect to clause (y) above, such actions are taken or committed to be taken no later than eighteen (18) months after the date of such Specified Transaction or entry into such Municipal Waste Contract, (C) no amounts shall be added pursuant to this Section 1.1.6.1 to the extent duplicative of any amounts that are otherwise added back in computing Adjusted EBITDA, whether through a pro forma adjustment or otherwise, with respect to such period and (D) it is understood and agreed that, subject to compliance with the other provisions of this section, amounts to be included in pro forma calculations pursuant to this section may be included in periods in which the Municipal Waste Contract or Put-or-Pay Agreement or Specified Transaction to which such amounts relate to is no longer being given pro forma effect pursuant to this section.

In the event that the Canadian Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs (including by assumption or guarantees) or repays (including by repurchase, redemption, retirement, extinguishment, defeasance, discharge, escrow or similar arrangements) any Indebtedness included in the calculations of the ratio of Net Funded Secured Debt to Adjusted EBITDA (other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid under any revolving credit facility in the ordinary course of business for working capital purposes), (i) during the applicable period or (ii) subsequent to the end of the applicable period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then the ratio of Net Funded Secured Debt to Adjusted EBITDA shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence or repayment of Indebtedness, to the extent required, as if the same had occurred on the last day of the applicable period. If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date such calculation is being made had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Agreement applicable to such Indebtedness). Interest on Financial Leases and Other Leases shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a Responsible Officer of the Canadian Borrower to be the rate of interest implicit in such Financial Lease or Other Lease, as applicable, in accordance with GAAP. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a Eurocurrency Rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Canadian Borrower may designate.

**73**

It is expressly understood and agreed that pro forma adjustments and calculations need not be prepared in compliance with Regulation S-X; <u>provided</u> that, to the extent any pro forma adjustments pursuant to this Section 1.1.6 are not in compliance with Regulation S-X, the aggregate amount of such add-backs to Adjusted EBITDA shall be subject to the 20% limitation set forth in Section 1.1.6.1.9.

1.8 <u>Rateable Portion of Accommodations</u> 

References in this Agreement to "Facility A Participation of a Lender", "Facility C Participation of a Lender", "Facility D Participation of a Lender", "Facility E Participation of a Lender" "shared by each Lender pro rata, in accordance with their respective Facility A Participations", "shared by each Lender pro rata, in accordance with their respective Facility C Participations", "shared by each Lender pro rata, in accordance with their respective Facility D Participations", "shared by each Lender pro rata, in accordance with their respective Facility E Participations" or similar expressions shall mean and refer to a rateable portion or share as nearly as may be rateable in the circumstances, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent. Each such determination by the Administrative Agent shall be *prima facie* evidence of such rateable share.

1.9 <u>Incorporation of Exhibits and Schedules</u>

Until such time as the Facility C Commitment and the Facility D Commitment has been terminated, the Facility A Loans have been fully repaid and the Facility C Credit and the Facility D Credit has been fully cancelled, the US Borrower shall be a Guarantor and a Restricted Subsidiary Wholly Owned by the Canadian Borrower.

1.15 <u>Limited Condition Transactions</u> 

In connection with any action being taken solely in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction (including any contemplated incurrence or assumption of Indebtedness in connection therewith), for purposes of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement that requires the calculation of the ratio of Net Funded Secured Debt to Adjusted EBITDA and/or Total Net Funded Debt to Adjusted EBITDA;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) determining the accuracy of representations and warranties and/or whether a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or any subset of Defaults or Events of Default); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) testing availability under baskets set forth in this Agreement (including baskets measured as a percentage of Adjusted EBITDA);

in each case, at the option of the Canadian Borrower (the Canadian Borrower's election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an "**LCA Election**"), with such option to be exercised on or prior to the date of execution of the definitive agreements with respect to such Limited Condition Transaction, the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements with respect to such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (the "**LCA Test Date**"), and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any Indebtedness of the Person or the Assets to be acquired and any incurrence, assumption or repayment of Indebtedness or Liens which is reasonably expected to occur in connection with the closing of the Limited Condition Transaction and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Canadian Borrower ending on or prior to the LCA Test Date, the Canadian Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant LCA Test Date in compliance with such ratio or basket, such ratio or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with. If the Canadian Borrower wishes to make an LCA Election, the Canadian Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, on or before the LCA Test Date, notice of the LCA Election signed by a Responsible Officer which notice shall (i) provide details of the Limited Condition Transaction, (ii) set out reasonably expected sources and uses of funds for the completion of the Limited Condition Transaction, and (iii) certify that after giving pro forma effect to such Limited Condition Transaction (including any Indebtedness of the Person or the Assets to be acquired and any incurrence, assumption or repayment of Indebtedness or Liens which is reasonably expected to occur in connection with the closing of the Limited Condition Transaction and the use of proceeds thereof), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the LCA Test Date.

**76**

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Canadian Borrower has made an LCA Election and any of the ratios or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCA Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio or basket, including due to fluctuations in Adjusted EBITDA of the Canadian Borrower or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations; <u>provided,</u> however, if any ratios improve or baskets increase as a result of such fluctuations, such improved ratios or baskets may be utilized. If the Canadian Borrower has made an LCA Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then, in connection with any subsequent calculation of the ratios or baskets on or following the relevant LCA Test Date and prior to the earliest of (i) the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated, (ii) the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction or (iii) the date which is one year following the LCA Test Date, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any Indebtedness of the Person or the Assets to be acquired and any incurrence, assumption or repayment of Indebtedness or Liens which is reasonably expected to occur in connection with the closing of the Limited Condition Transaction and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.

3.8 <u>Conversion Option</u> 

At any time prior to the Facility A Maturity Date, subject to Section 8.1, and provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (without having been cured or waived as provided in this Agreement), the Canadian Borrower may elect to convert by Notice of Conversion received by the Administrative Agent, and on the Conversion Date set forth therein the Canadian Borrower shall convert, any US Base Rate Loan, Canadian Rate Loan, SOFR Loan or Bankers' Acceptance or any portion thereof outstanding under the Facility A Credit (each a "**Converted Advance**") into another basis of funding in the same currency under the Facility A Credit (each a "**Conversion Advance**") other than Letters of Credit. The provisions of this Agreement relating to Canadian Rate Advances, US Base Rate Advances, SOFR Advances and Acceptances shall apply *mutatis mutandis* to Conversion Advances comprising Canadian Rate Advances, US Base Rate Advances, SOFR Advances and Acceptances, respectively.

3.9 <u>Swingline Loan</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.9.1 At any time that the Canadian Borrower would be entitled to obtain Facility A Advances and to such extent
provided in this Section 3.9, the Canadian Borrower shall be entitled to create or increase an overdraft in its CDollar Current Account
or USDollar Current Account, without having to provide to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing. The Swingline CDollar Availment
and Swingline USDollar Availment from time to time outstanding shall be deemed to be a Canadian Rate Loan or a US Base Rate Loan respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.9.2 The Canadian Borrower undertakes not to permit the Swingline Loan at any time to exceed the Swingline
Limit at such time. For greater certainty and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Swingline Lender shall not be
obligated to permit at any time the creation or the increase of an overdraft in the CDollar Current Account or USDollar Current Account
(a "**Swingline Advance** "), to the extent that at such time the Swingline Loan would exceed the Swingline Limit.

**91**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.9.3 It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Swingline Loan be available to the Canadian Borrower
pending the obtaining of Facility A Advances pursuant to Section 3.2. Accordingly, on any Banking Day the Swingline Loan equals or
exceeds the Swingline Limit or, from time to time, as the Swingline Lender, in its sole and entire discretion, deems it appropriate, the
Swingline Lender shall deliver a written notice to the Administrative Agent (which in turn will provide notice to,
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, each of the Lenders and to the Canadian Borrower), requiring repayment of the Swingline
Loan then outstanding or any portion thereof. Such written notice from the Swingline Lender to the Administrative Agent shall be delivered
not later than 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) one (1) Banking Day prior to the proposed date of repayment of the Swingline Loan then
outstanding or any portion thereof and any repayment amount specified in such notice may be for the full amount of the Swingline Loan
then outstanding or be in a minimum amount of C$500,000 or US$500,000, as the case may be, and multiples of C$100,000 or US$100,000 respectively
in excess thereof. The Canadian Borrower shall be deemed to have given at such time a Notice of Borrowing to the Administrative Agent
requesting a Canadian Rate Advance and a US Base Rate Advance, as applicable, under the Facility A Credit in an amount equal to the portion
of the Swingline Loan owing by the Canadian Borrower and to be repaid as specified by the Swingline Lender. If the aggregate principal
amount of all such requested Advances and the Facility A Loan outstanding would not exceed the Facility A Total Commitment at such time,
and no Event of Default is then continuing, the Lenders shall make such requested Advances on the next Banking Day and the Administrative
Agent shall apply the proceeds thereof in full and partial repayment, as the case may be, of the Swingline Loan then outstanding. The
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Canadian Borrower of any such Advance made, and the Canadian Borrower agrees to accept
each such Advance and hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to apply the proceeds thereof in payment of the
Swingline Loan as aforesaid.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.9.4 If at any time that the Facility A Total Commitment has been terminated following an Event of Default
as provided in Section 16.2 and the Facility A Loan is not outstanding rateably from the Lenders (with the outstanding Swingline
Loan being deemed for such purpose outstanding under the Swingline Lender's Facility A Commitment), any Lender from which excess
Advances are outstanding (the "**Surplus Lender**") shall sell to any Lender from which deficit Advances are outstanding
(the "**Deficit Lender** "), and the Deficit Lender shall purchase from the Surplus Lender, for cash, at par, without representation
or warranty from or recourse to the Surplus Lender, an interest in such of the Advances outstanding from the Surplus Lender as results
in the ratio of the Facility A Advances outstanding from all Lenders being equal to the ratio of their Facility A Commitments. The intention
of this Section 3.9.4 is that when any and all purchases and sales required hereby have been completed, the outstanding Facility
A Advances under the Facility A Credit will be outstanding rateably from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent, upon consultation with
the Lenders, shall have the power to settle any documentation required to evidence any such purchase and sale and, if deemed advisable
by the Administrative Agent, to execute any document as attorney for any Lender in order to complete any such purchase and sale. The Canadian
Borrower and the Lenders acknowledge that the foregoing arrangements are
to be settled by the Lenders among themselves, and the Canadian Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements among such Lenders.

**92**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.9.5 Each of the Lenders shall indemnify and save harmless the Swingline Lender (to the extent not reimbursed
by the Canadian Borrower) on a rateable basis based on the Facility A Commitment of each such Lender against all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, payments or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which
may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Swingline Lender in any way related to or arising out of the Swingline Loan or
any Swingline Advance made by the Swingline Lender, except for any such liabilities resulting from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct
of the Swingline Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.9.6 The Canadian Borrower shall advise the Swingline Lender from time to time but not more frequently than
as may be agreed by the Swingline Lender as to the allocation of the Swingline Limit between the CDollar Current Account and the USDollar
Current Account.

7.6 <u>Conversion Option</u> 

At any time prior to the Facility E Maturity Date, subject to Section 8.1, and provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (without having been cured or waived as provided in this Agreement), the Canadian Borrower may elect to convert by Notice of Conversion received by the Administrative Agent, and on the Conversion Date set forth therein the Canadian Borrower shall convert, any Canadian Rate Loan or Bankers' Acceptance or any portion thereof outstanding under the Facility E Credit (each a "**Converted Advance**") into another basis of funding in the same currency under the Facility E Credit (each a "**Conversion Advance**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.10.2 For the purposes of the *Interest Act* (Canada):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.10.2.1 whenever any interest or fee under
 this Agreement is calculated using a rate based on a year of 360 days or 365 (or 366 in a

If the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.2, 3.8 or 10.2 that a Borrowing or a Conversion Advance or a Rollover Advance is to be made by way of Bankers' Acceptances (or, as the case may be, BA Equivalent Advances), the Borrower shall pay in CDollars at or prior to the time of the Acceptance of each Bankers' Acceptance an Acceptance Fee on the face value of each Bankers' Acceptance accepted by a Lender. The Acceptance Fee shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days of the Bankers' Acceptance divided by the actual number of days of the year.

9.12 <u>Commitment Fees</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.12.1 The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative

 for the purchase of the relevant currency quoted or published or otherwise made available
 by the Bank of Canada at 4:30 p.m. on the first Business Day in such month. Such fee
 is payable in CDollars.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.12.2 The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative

 respect to the calculation of the commitment fee in effect from time to time during the period
 for which such payment is made, payable in arrears on the first day of the calendar month
 immediately following the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower, and if such day
 is not a Banking Day, then on the next following Banking Day, commencing on October 1,

 each Lender's Facility D Available Commitment means at any time such Lender's
 Facility D Commitment at such time less its Facility D Participation in the amount of the
 Facility D Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.12.4 The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative
 Agent, for the account of each Lender, a commitment fee for a period of 12 months from the
 date of this Agreement calculated on a daily basis on the amount of such Lender's Facility

 to the calculation of the commitment fee in effect from time to time during the period for
 which such payment is made, payable in arrears on the first day of the calendar month immediately
 following the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower, and if such day is not a Banking

 from day to day and be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 (or 366 in a leap year) days
 for the actual number of days elapsed. Under no circumstances shall any such commitment fee
 be refundable either in whole or in part, even if no Advance is ever made under the terms
 hereof.

9.13 <u>Agency Fee</u>

ARTICLE 10

**BANKERS' ACCEPTANCES**

10.1 <u>Bankers' Acceptances</u> 

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Canadian Borrower may borrow from the Lenders on any Banking Day up to the amount of the Facility A Available Commitment of each Lender under the Facility A Credit or up to the amount of the Facility E Available Commitment of each Lender under the Facility E Credit by way of Bankers' Acceptances upon giving to the Administrative Agent prior written notice in accordance with Section 3.4 by means of a Notice of Borrowing, and provided that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1.1 each Bankers' Acceptance is
 denominated in CDollars and the minimum aggregate amount of each Borrowing by way of Bankers'
 Acceptances shall be C$5,000,000 or in integral multiples of C$100,000 in excess of such
 minimum amount;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1.2 each Lender shall have received a
 Bankers' Acceptance or Bankers' Acceptances in the principal amount of such Lender's
 Proportionate Share of such Borrowing in due and proper form duly completed and executed
 by the Canadian Borrower, or each Lender on behalf of the Canadian Borrower pursuant to the
 provisions of Section 10.5, and presented for acceptance to such Lender prior to 10:00
 a.m. (Toronto time) on the Drawdown Date and the Acceptance Fee shall have been paid
 to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Lender, at or prior to such time;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1.3 each Bankers' Acceptance shall
 be stated to mature on a Banking Day no later than, in respect of the Facility A Credit,
 the Facility A Maturity Date and no later than, in respect of the Facility E Credit, the
 Facility E Maturity Date, and in each case which is one month, two months or three months
 from the date of its Acceptance, or, at the request of the Canadian Borrower and in the sole
 discretion of the Lenders, another period between thirty (30) and ninety (90) days (plus
 or minus up to two (2) days) from the date of its Acceptance, the whole subject to market
 availability;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1.4 no days of grace shall be permitted on any Bankers' Acceptance;
 and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1.5 the aggregate face amount of the
 Bankers' Acceptances to be accepted by a Lender shall be determined by the Administrative
 Agent by reference to such Lender's Facility A Commitment or the Facility E Commitment,
 as applicable, except that, if the face amount of a Bankers' Acceptance which would
 otherwise be accepted by a Lender pursuant to a Borrowing would not for any reason be a whole
 multiple of C$100,000, such face amount shall be increased or reduced by the Administrative
 Agent in its sole discretion to the nearest whole multiple of C$100,000, as appropriate.

**115**

10.2 <u>Payments at Maturity and Rollovers</u> 

Prior to the maturity date of each Bankers' Acceptance, the Canadian Borrower shall either (a) give a Notice of Conversion pursuant to Section 3.8 to convert such Bankers' Acceptance into another basis of funding or (b) give a Notice of Rollover to the Administrative Agent requesting that the Loan or that part referred to in such notice outstanding by Bankers' Acceptance be renewed in the same form of Borrowing for a term commencing on the maturity date of such Bankers' Acceptance, and the provisions of this Agreement relating to Bankers' Acceptances shall apply *mutatis mutandis* to such renewal. If for any reason the Canadian Borrower fails to give a Notice of Conversion or a Notice of Rollover in accordance with the foregoing, it shall be deemed for all purposes to have received on the maturity date of each such Bankers' Acceptance a Canadian Rate Advance in an amount equal to the face value of each such Bankers' Acceptance (which Bankers' Acceptance shall be repaid with the proceeds of said Canadian Rate Advance) and it shall pay interest thereon at the Canadian Rate until repayment thereof in full by it, the whole notwithstanding the fact that any Bankers' Acceptances may be held by a Lender in its own right at maturity. The Canadian Borrower acknowledges, agrees and confirms with the Lenders that the records of each Lender in respect of payment of any Bankers' Acceptance by such Lender shall be binding on the Canadian Borrower and shall be conclusive evidence (in the absence of manifest error) of a Canadian Rate Advance to the Canadian Borrower and of an amount owing by the Canadian Borrower to such Lender. The Canadian Borrower further agrees that if an Event of Default shall occur prior to the date upon which any one or more Bankers' Acceptance issued by the Canadian Borrower is payable by a Lender, thereupon the Canadian Borrower shall provide such Lender with funds for the full face amount of all such Bankers' Acceptances, notwithstanding the fact that any such Bankers' Acceptance may be held by such Lender in its own right at maturity; <u>provided</u>, however, that if for any reason the Canadian Borrower fails to make such payment in respect of any Bankers' Acceptance, thereupon the Canadian Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have received a Canadian Rate Advance in an amount equal to the face amount of such Bankers' Acceptance and the Canadian Borrower shall pay interest thereon at the Canadian Rate until repayment thereof in full.

10.3 <u>BA Equivalent Advances</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.3.1 In the event a Lender is unable to
 accept Bankers' Acceptances, such Lender shall have the right at the time of accepting
 drafts to require the Canadian Borrower to accept an Advance from such Lender in lieu of
 the issue and acceptance of a Bankers' Acceptance requested by the Canadian Borrower
 to be accepted so that there shall be outstanding while the Bankers' Acceptances are
 outstanding BA Equivalent Advances from such Lender as contemplated herein. The principal
 amount of each BA Equivalent Advance shall be that amount which, when added to the face amount
 of interest (calculated at the Discount Rate) which will accrue during the BA Equivalent
 Interest Period shall be equal, at maturity, to the face amount of the drafts which would
 have been accepted by such Lender had it accepted Bankers' Acceptances. The "**BA Equivalent Interest Period**" for each BA Equivalent Advance shall be equal to the
 term of the drafts presented for acceptance as Bankers' Acceptances on the relevant
 Drawdown Date, Conversion Date or Rollover Date.

**116**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.3.2 On the relevant Drawdown Date, Conversion
 Date or Rollover Date, the Canadian Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent a fee
 equal to the Acceptance Fee which would have been payable to such Lender if it were a Lender
 accepting drafts having a term to maturity equal to the applicable BA Equivalent Interest
 Period and an aggregate face amount equal to the sum of the principal amount of the BA Equivalent
 Advance and the interest payable thereon by the Canadian Borrower for the applicable BA Equivalent
 Interest Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.3.3 The provisions of this Agreement
 dealing with Bankers' Acceptances shall apply, *mutatis mutandis*, to BA Equivalent
 Advances.

10.4 <u>Purchase of Bankers' Acceptances</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.4.1 Each Bankers' Acceptance issued
 pursuant to this Agreement shall be purchased by the Lender accepting such Bankers'
 Acceptance for the applicable Discounted Proceeds thereof. In each case, upon receipt of
 such Discounted Proceeds from the Lenders and upon fulfilment of the applicable conditions
 set forth in ARTICLE 13, the Administrative Agent shall make such funds available to
 the Canadian Borrower in accordance with this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.4.2 Upon each issue of Bankers'
 Acceptances as a result of the conversion of outstanding Borrowings into Bankers' Acceptances
 or rollover of Bankers' Acceptances, the Canadian Borrower shall, concurrently with
 the conversion, pay in advance to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, the
 amount by which the face value of such Bankers' Acceptances exceeds the Discounted
 Proceeds of such Bankers' Acceptances, to be applied against the principal amount of
 the Borrowing being so converted. The Canadian Borrower shall at the same time pay to the
 Administrative Agent the applicable Acceptance Fee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.4.3 The Canadian Borrower acknowledges
 and agrees that each Lender may, at any time, arrange for its Participant or Eligible Assignee
 to accept and purchase Bankers' Acceptances hereunder. Any such acceptance by a Participant
 or Eligible Assignee shall be deemed to be an Acceptance by such Lender for the purposes
 of this Agreement.

10.5 <u>Power of Attorney</u> 

In order to facilitate issuance of Bankers' Acceptances pursuant hereto, in accordance with the instructions given from time to time by the Canadian Borrower, the Canadian Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender, and for this purpose appoints each Lender its lawful attorney, to complete and sign Bankers' Acceptances on its behalf, in handwritten or facsimile or mechanical signature or otherwise, and once so completed, signed and endorsed, and following acceptance of them as Bankers' Acceptances, to purchase, discount or negotiate such Bankers' Acceptances in accordance with the provisions of this ARTICLE 10, and to provide the net Discounted Proceeds to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions hereof. Drafts so completed, signed, endorsed and negotiated on behalf of the Canadian Borrower by any Lender shall bind the Canadian Borrower as fully and effectively as if so performed by an authorized officer of the Canadian Borrower. Each Lender shall maintain a record with respect to such instruments (i) received by it hereunder, (ii) voided by it for any reason, (iii) accepted by it hereunder and (iv) cancelled at their respective maturities. Each Lender agrees to provide such records to the Canadian Borrower promptly upon request and, at the request of the Canadian Borrower, to cancel such instruments which have been so completed and executed and which are held by such Lender and have not yet been issued hereunder. This Section 10.5 shall apply *mutatis mutandis* to any note or draft, if any, which may be issued from time to time to evidence a BA Equivalent Advance.

**117**

ARTICLE 11

**LETTERS OF CREDIT**

11.1 <u>Letter of Credit Commitment</u>

Each Facility A Letter of Credit shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank. The maximum Letter of Credit Exposure of BMO and Barclays Bank PLC as Issuing Banks set forth in clause (iii) of this Section 11.1 may be amended from time to time to reallocate the amount set forth in Section 3.1.4 between BMO and Barclays Bank PLC as Issuing Banks with the consent of BMO, Barclays Bank PLC and the Canadian Borrower and without the consent of any other Lender. No Issuing Bank shall be required to issue a Letter of Credit if such issuance would violate any policies of the Issuing Bank pertaining to letters of credit generally.

11.2 <u>Letter of Credit Participations</u> 

Each Issuing Bank irrevocably grants, and in order to induce each Issuing Bank to issue its Letters of Credit hereunder, each Lender irrevocably accepts and hereby purchases for its own account and risk from the applicable Issuing Bank, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, an undivided interest equal to such Lender's Facility A Participation in the applicable Issuing Bank's obligations and rights under each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and the amount of each drawing paid by the applicable Issuing Bank thereunder. Each Lender unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with each Issuing Bank that, on or before the close of business of the Issuing Bank, on each day on which a drawing is paid under a Letter of Credit for which the Issuing Bank is not reimbursed in full by the Canadian Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 11.8.1 (a "**Participation Date**"), such Lender will pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank at the Administrative Agent's office specified in Section 12.1 such Lender's Facility A Participation of any unpaid Reimbursement Obligation in respect of Facility A Letters of Credit. This obligation of each Lender is unconditional and, for greater certainty, shall apply both before and after the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, both before and after the Facility A Maturity Date and both before and after the termination or cancellation of the Facility A Total Commitment. Each Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent and each Lender of the occurrence of a Participation Date, and the amount payable by it to the Issuing Bank based on such Lender's Facility A Participation. Any such notice may be oral if promptly confirmed in writing (including telecopy). If any Lender fails to make any such payment on or prior to the first Business Day after such Lender receives notice as provided above, then interest shall accrue on such Lender's obligation to make such payment during the period from such Business Day to the day such Lender makes such payment (or if earlier, the date on which the Canadian Borrower reimburses the Issuing Bank for such unpaid Reimbursement Obligation) at the rate specified in Section 20.1.

**118**

11.3 <u>Repayment of Participants</u> 

Upon and only upon receipt by the applicable Issuing Bank of funds from the Canadian Borrower in full or partial reimbursement of any drawing paid under a Letter of Credit with respect to which any Lender has theretofore paid the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank in full for such Lender's Facility A Participation pursuant to Section 11.2 and in full or partial payment of interest, commissions or fees on such drawing paid under a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank will pay to such Lender, in the same funds as those received by such Issuing Bank, or net against any then due obligation of such Lender under Section 11.2 to make any payment to such Issuing Bank, such Lender's Facility A Participation of such funds.

11.4 <u>Role of the Issuing Bank</u> 

Each Issuing Bank will exercise and give the same care and attention to each Letter of Credit as it gives to its other letters of credit and similar obligations, and each Issuing Bank's sole liability to each Lender shall be to distribute pursuant to Section 11.3 promptly, as and when received by such Issuing Bank, each Lender's Facility A Participation of any payments made to such Issuing Bank by the Canadian Borrower. Each Lender agrees that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than as required by such Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of any Person delivering any such document. No Issuing Bank nor any of its representatives, officers, employees or agents shall be liable to any Lender for (a) any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Required Lenders, (b) any action taken or omitted to be taken in the absence of gross negligence or wilful misconduct, (c) any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in any document distributed to any Lender, (d) the creditworthiness of the Canadian Borrower, or (e) the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, or any other document contemplated thereby. No Issuing Bank shall incur any liability (i) by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement or other writing (which may be a bank wire, telecopier or similar writing) believed by it to be genuine or to be signed by the proper party or parties or (ii) by acting as permitted under Section 11.13. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and several, and no Lender shall be liable for the performance or non-performance of the obligations of any other Lender under this ARTICLE 11. In the event of gross negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Bank in the payment of any drawing under a Letter of Credit, such Issuing Bank shall repay to each Lender any amount paid by such Lender to such Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 11.2 which the Canadian Borrower has not reimbursed to such Issuing Bank strictly and solely as a result of such gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

11.5 <u>Obligations of Each Lender Absolute</u> 

Each Lender acknowledges that its obligations to each Issuing Bank under this ARTICLE 11, including the obligation to purchase and fund a participation in the obligations and rights of the Issuing Bank under each Letter of Credit and any unpaid Reimbursement Obligation, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, (i) the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, (ii) the fact that a condition precedent to the issuance of any Letter of Credit was not in fact satisfied, (iii) any failure or inability of any other Lender to purchase or fund such a participation hereunder, or (iv) any other failure by any other Lender to fulfil its obligations hereunder. Each payment by a Lender to an Issuing Bank for its own account or the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank shall be made without any offset, compensation, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

11.6 <u>Reinstatement and Survival</u> 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if an Issuing Bank is required at any time whether before or after the Facility A Maturity Date to make any payment under a Facility A Letter of Credit which was outstanding on or before the Facility A Maturity Date, each Lender shall pay over to the applicable Issuing Bank, in accordance with the provisions of this ARTICLE 11, the amount of such Lender's Facility A Participation of such amount. If an Issuing Bank is required at any time (whether before or after the Facility A Maturity Date) to return to the Canadian Borrower or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official any portion of the payments made by or on behalf of the Canadian Borrower to such Issuing Bank in reimbursement of Reimbursement Obligations and interest thereon, each Lender shall, on demand of such Issuing Bank, forthwith pay over to such Issuing Bank for its account or the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank such Lender's Facility A Participation of such amount, plus interest thereon from the day such demand is made to the day such amount is returned by such Lender to such Issuing Bank at the rate specified in Section 20.1.

11.7 <u>Procedure for Issuance and Renewal of Letters of Credit</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.7.1 The Canadian Borrower may request
 an Issuing Bank, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, to issue a Letter of Credit under
 the Facility A Credit by delivering to the Issuing Bank at its office specified from time
 to time to the Canadian Borrower a commercial letter of credit application or a standby letter
 of credit application or a letter of guarantee application, as appropriate, on the applicable
 Issuing Bank's then customary form for a commercial letter of credit or standby letter
 of credit or letter of guarantee respectively (each such form, as it may be modified from
 time to time, a "**Letter of Credit Application** "), completed to the satisfaction
 of such Issuing Bank, together with the proposed form of such Letter of Credit (which shall
 comply with the applicable requirements set forth herein) and such other certificates, documents
 and other papers and information as the Issuing Bank may reasonably request; <u>provided</u> that in the event of a conflict between this Agreement and the applicable Letter of Credit
 Application, this Agreement shall govern with respect to such conflict. In connection with
 a pending Permitted Acquisition, the Canadian Borrower may request the issuance of a Letter
 of Credit on behalf of a Person that is the subject of the pending Permitted Acquisition,
 provided that the Canadian Borrower shall remain liable for all obligations in respect of
 any such Letter of Credit.

**120**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.7.2 Within one (1) Business Day
 following the date on which the Administrative Agent shall have received a copy of an application
 for the issuance of a Facility A Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall advise
 the applicable Issuing Bank and the Borrower as to whether the issue of the requested Letter
 of Credit would result in the Letter of Credit Exposure in respect of Facility A Letters
 of Credit to exceed the then Facility A Available Commitment. If the Letter of Credit Exposure
 in respect of Facility A Letters of Credit would exceed the then Facility A Available Commitment
 as a result of the issuance of the requested Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall withdraw
 its request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.7.3 Within three (3) Business Days
 following the date on which an Issuing Bank shall have received an application for the issuance
 of a Letter of Credit including the form thereof, and such additional certificates, documents
 and other papers and information as such Issuing Bank may have reasonably requested in satisfaction
 of all conditions to the issuance thereof, such Issuing Bank shall, provided the conditions
 of ARTICLE 13 have been complied with, issue such Letter of Credit (if the Canadian
 Borrower shall have requested that such Letter of Credit be issued immediately) or (if the
 Canadian Borrower shall have requested in the related Letter of Credit Application that such
 Letter of Credit be issued at a later date) the Administrative Agent shall notify the Canadian
 Borrower that the applicable Issuing Bank shall, provided the conditions of ARTICLE 13
 have been complied with, issue such Letter of Credit on such later date, or that the applicable
 Issuing Bank shall not issue such Letter of Credit by reason of a provision set forth herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.7.4 The Canadian Borrower may request
 the extension or renewal for up to 365 days of a Letter of Credit issued for its account
 hereunder which is not automatically renewed in accordance with the terms contained therein,
 by giving written notice to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank at least
 ten (10) Business Days prior to the then current expiry date of such Letter of Credit
 (provided that the Issuing Bank may accommodate notices on shorter notice in its sole discretion).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.7.5 With respect to any Letter of Credit
 issued hereunder which by its terms is automatically renewed or extended unless notice to
 the contrary is received by the beneficiary thereunder within the time period set forth therein
 (the "**Revocation Period** "), the applicable Issuing Bank shall, upon receipt
 of notice from the Administrative Agent (which notice must be received by the Issuing Bank
 not later than noon, Toronto time, ten (10) Business Days prior to the expiration of
 the Revocation Period), to the effect that the Required Lenders have elected not to extend
 the current expiry date of such Letter of Credit, promptly notify the Canadian Borrower and
 the beneficiary thereunder that such Letter of Credit shall not be renewed. Unless such notice
 from the Administrative Agent is received by the applicable Issuing Bank in respect of any
 Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit shall automatically be renewed or extended in accordance
 with its provisions.

**121**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.7.6 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
 in this Agreement, (a) an Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to extend or renew any
 Letter of Credit issued hereunder to an expiry date extending beyond the Facility A Maturity
 Date or at any time when a Default or an Event of Default has occurred which has not been
 waived or cured and (b) no Lender shall have any obligation to purchase a participation
 in an Issuing Bank's obligations and rights under any Letter of Credit extended or
 renewed to a date beyond the Facility A Maturity Date.

11.8 <u>Reimbursement of the Issuing Bank</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.8.1 In the event that any drawing shall

 and of the portion thereof constituting a Canadian Rate Advance and of the portion thereof
 constituting a US Base Rate Advance, and immediately upon receipt of such notice, each Lender
 shall make its Facility A Participation, in CDollars or USDollars, as applicable, available
 to the Issuing Bank by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the office of such
 Issuing Bank specified in such notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.8.2 In the event that a drawing shall
 be made under any Letter of Credit and a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and
 is continuing (without having been cured or waived as provided in this Agreement), no Canadian
 Rate Advance or US Base Rate Advance, as applicable, shall be deemed to have been made in
 respect of such drawing and the Canadian Borrower (i) shall reimburse the applicable Issuing
 Bank for the amount paid on each drawing under each Letter of Credit not later than the close
 of business on the day on which the Canadian Borrower receives notice of such drawing, and

 Credit is outstanding, and (B) the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender,

 Margin with respect to the calculation of Letter of Credit Commission times such Lender's
 Facility A Participation of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter
 of Credit. Such fronting fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears for the number of days

Interest accrued hereunder shall be payable on demand. For the purposes of computing the number of days for which interest shall accrue on amounts disbursed under Letters of Credit, payments received by the Issuing Bank after 1:00 P.M., Toronto time, shall be deemed to have been received on the next following Banking Day for payments required to be made in CDollars or on the next following Business Day for payments required to be made in USDollars. All payments (including prepayments) by the Canadian Borrower to an Issuing Bank, whether on account of the Canadian Borrower's Reimbursement Obligation or interest thereon, on account of any fees due hereunder or otherwise, shall be made in the currency of the Letter of Credit and in immediately available funds without set off, compensation or counterclaim to the Issuing Bank.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.13.1 The obligations of the Canadian
 Borrower hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and
 irrespective of any set off, compensation, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Canadian
 Borrower may have or have had against an Issuing Bank, any Lender or any beneficiary of a
 Letter of Credit. The Canadian Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of the
 users of the Letters of Credit and all risks of the misuse of the Letters of Credit. No Issuing

 in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) for
 the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to
 transfer or assign any of the Letters of Credit or any of the rights or benefits thereunder
 or proceeds thereof in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for
 any reason; (iii) for failure of any drawing to bear any reference or adequate reference
 to any of the Letters of Credit, or failure of anyone to note the amount of any drawing on
 the reverse of any of the Letters of Credit or to surrender or to take up any of the Letters
 of Credit or to send forward any such document apart from drawings as required by the terms
 of any of the Letters of Credit; (iv) for error, omissions, interruptions or delays
 in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, email, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise,
 whether or not they be in cipher; (v) for any error, neglect, default, suspension or
 insolvency of any correspondents of the Issuing Bank; (vi) for error in translation
 or for errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vii) for any loss or delay, in
 the transmission or otherwise, of any such document or drawing or of proceeds thereof; or

 a Letter of Credit; <u>provided</u> that in each of the circumstances referred to in clauses
 (i) through (viii) above the Canadian Borrower shall have, nevertheless and notwithstanding
 the foregoing, a claim against the applicable Issuing Bank, and the applicable Issuing Bank
 shall be liable to the Canadian Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct,
 as opposed to indirect, damages suffered by the Canadian Borrower which the Canadian Borrower
 proves were caused by such Issuing Bank's wilful misconduct or gross negligence. None
 of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the rights or powers of
 the Issuing Bank or any of the Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.13.2 In furtherance and extension and
 not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove in this ARTICLE 11 set forth,

 under or in connection with any of the Letters of Credit, if taken or omitted in good faith
 and without wilful misconduct or gross negligence, shall be binding upon the Canadian Borrower
 and shall not put the applicable Issuing Bank or its respective correspondents under any
 resulting liability to the Canadian Borrower and (ii) an Issuing Bank may, without wilful
 misconduct or gross negligence, accept documents that appear on their face to be in order,
 without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information
 to the contrary; <u>provided</u>, that if the applicable Issuing Bank shall receive written
 notification from both the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit and the Canadian Borrower that
 sufficiently identifies (in the opinion of such Issuing Bank) documents to be presented to
 such Issuing Bank which are not to be honoured, such Issuing Bank agrees that it will not
 honour such documents.

**125**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.13.3 The Canadian Borrower hereby agrees
 at all times to protect, indemnify and save harmless each Issuing Bank and each Lender participating
 in a Letter of Credit, from and against any and all claims, actions, suits and other legal
 proceedings, and from and against any and all losses, claims, demands, liabilities and damages,
 which they or any of them may, at any time, sustain or incur by reason of or in consequence
 of or arising out of the issuance of any of the Letters of Credit issued for its account
 (all of the foregoing, collectively, the "**indemnified liabilities** "), it
 being the intention of the parties that this Agreement shall be construed and applied to
 protect and indemnify each Issuing Bank and each Lender participating in a Letter of Credit
 against any and all risks involved in the issuance of all of the Letters of Credit, all of
 which risks, whether or not foreseeable, being hereby assumed by the Canadian Borrower, including,
 without limitation, any and all risks of all acts by any Governmental Authority and any and
 all claims by correspondents used in connection with a Letter of Credit, provided that the
 Canadian Borrower shall not have any obligation hereunder to an indemnified party with respect
 to indemnified liabilities arising from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such
 indemnified party. No Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall, in any way, be liable for any failure
 by it or anyone else to pay a draft drawn under any of the Letters of Credit as a result
 of any acts, whether rightful or wrongful, of any Governmental Authority or any correspondent
 used in connection with a Letter of Credit or any other cause not readily within their control
 or the control of their respective correspondents. Without limiting the generality of the
 foregoing, the Canadian Borrower shall be responsible for, and shall reimburse the applicable
 Issuing Bank forthwith upon its receipt of any demand therefor, any and all commissions,
 fees and other charges paid or payable by such Issuing Bank to any foreign bank which shall
 be an advising bank or a beneficiary of a Letter of Credit issued for its account which shall,
 in reliance thereon, have issued its own letter of credit in respect of obligations of the
 Canadian Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.13.4 The Canadian Borrower agrees that
 any terms and conditions in any Letter of Credit Application shall also apply in respect
 of the Letter of Credit issued pursuant to such application; <u>provided</u> that in the
 event of a conflict between this Agreement and the applicable Letter of Credit Application,
 this Agreement shall govern with respect to such conflict.

11.14 <u>Payments upon any Event of Default</u>

The Canadian Borrower agrees that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, in addition to all other rights and remedies, each Issuing Bank shall at the request, or may with the consent of the Required Lenders, by notice to the Canadian Borrower demand immediate delivery of cash collateral and the Canadian Borrower agrees to deliver such cash collateral upon demand, in an amount equal to the maximum amount that may be available to be drawn at any time prior to the stated expiry of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower, provided that such cash collateral shall be immediately due and payable upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 16.1.8.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.9.3 The Lenders agree among themselves that all sums received by the Lenders for application against amounts
owing under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents and referred to in one of Section 12.9.1.2 through 12.9.1.10 shall

Lenders under such subparagraph.

12.10 <u>Supplying Documents and Indemnity</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.10.1 Each Obligor shall supply all statements, reports, certificates, opinions, appraisals and other documents

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.10.2 Without prejudice to the rights of the Lenders under the provisions of Section 9.9, the Borrower
agrees to indemnify each Lender against any loss or reasonable expense which it may sustain or incur in obtaining or redeploying deposits
as a result of the failure by the Borrower to pay when due any principal of the Loan or for any reason to borrow in accordance with a
Notice of Borrowing given by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, to the extent that any such loss or reasonable expense is not recovered
pursuant to any other provisions hereof. A certificate of a Lender or the Administrative Agent setting forth the basis for the determination
of the interest due on overdue principal or interest and of the amounts necessary to indemnify such Lender in respect of such loss or
reasonable expense, submitted to the Borrower, shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding for all purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.10.3 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if for any reason, including the acceleration of
the maturity of the Loan or as a result of the application of Section 18.3, Section 18.4 or Section 24.3.2, the Borrower
prepays, repays or converts all or any portion of the SOFR Loan on a day other than the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable
to the SOFR Loan or a SOFR Loan Portion, or if the Borrower, having given a Notice of Borrowing requesting a SOFR Advance, fails for any
reason to fulfil on or before the Drawdown Date for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Section 13.2, the Borrower
shall on demand pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, the amount required to indemnify such Lender for any
loss, cost or reasonable expense incurred by such Lender as a result of such payment or conversion or failure to fulfil such conditions
including, without limitation, any loss or expense incurred in liquidating or in maintaining or redeploying deposits or other funds obtained
by such Lender to fund or maintain the SOFR Loan or such SOFR Loan Portion. A certificate of a Lender
setting out the basis of the determination of the amount necessary to indemnify it shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive
and binding for all purposes.

**130**

12.11 <u>Non-Receipt by Administrative Agent</u> 

Without prejudice to the rights of the Administrative Agent under ARTICLE 20, where a sum is to be paid hereunder to the Administrative Agent for the account of another party hereto, the Administrative Agent shall not be obliged to make the same available to that other party hereto until it has been able to establish that it has actually received such sum.

12.12 <u>Survival of Indemnification Obligations</u> 

Without prejudice to the survival or termination of any other agreement of the Borrowers under this Agreement, the obligations of the Borrowers under Sections 11.13.3, 12.10, 18.1 and 18.2 and under ARTICLE 22 shall survive the execution hereof, the termination of the Total Commitment and the repayment in full of the Loan.

12.13 <u>Erroneous Payments</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.1 If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender or Swingline Lender, or any Person who has received funds
on behalf of a Lender or Swingline Lender (any such Lender, Swingline Lender or other recipient, a "**Payment Recipient** ")
that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under Section 12.13.2)
that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted
to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, Swingline Lender
or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest,
fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an "**Erroneous Payment**") and demands the return of such
Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and
shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender or Swingline
Lender shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to)
promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous
Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest
thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient
to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of: (i) in respect of an Erroneous
Payment in U.S. Dollars, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and in respect of an Erroneous Payment in Canadian Dollars or any other currency
at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the overnight rate at which Canadian Dollars or funds in the currency of
such Erroneous Payment, as the case may be, may be borrowed by the Administrative Agent in the interbank market in an amount comparable
to such Erroneous Payment (as determined by the Administrative Agent); and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in
accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent
to any Payment Recipient under this Section 12.13.1 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

**131**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.2 Without limiting Section 12.13.1, each Lender or Swingline Lender, or any Person who has received
funds on behalf of a Lender or Swingline Lender, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether
received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent
(or any of its Affiliates): (i) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment,
prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment;
(ii) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any
of its Affiliates); or (iii) that such Lender, Swingline Lender or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted,
or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.2.1 (A) in the case of clauses (i) or (ii) of Section 12.13.2, an error shall be presumed
to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the
case of clause (iii) of Section 12.13.2), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.2.2 such Lender or Swingline Lender shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its
respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Administrative
Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying
the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 12.13.2.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.3 Each Lender or Swingline Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any
and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or Swingline Lender under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by
the Administrative Agent to such Lender or Swingline Lender from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under
Section 12.13.1 or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

**132**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.4 In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative
 Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 12.13.1, from any Lender or Swingline Lender that has received
such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof)
on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an "**Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency** "), upon the Administrative
Agent's notice to such Lender or Swingline Lender at any time: (i) such Lender or Swingline Lender shall be deemed to have
assigned its Loans (but not its individual Commitment) with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the "**Erroneous Payment Impacted Class**") in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative
Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not individual Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the "**Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment**") at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative
Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrowers) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption (or, to
the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an electronic platform approved
by the Administrative Agent and as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to such Erroneous
Payment Deficiency Assignment; (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment
Deficiency Assignment; (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender
or Swingline Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender or
assigning Swingline Lender shall cease to be a Lender or Swingline Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment
Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and
its individual Commitment which shall survive as to such assigning Lender or assigning Swingline Lender; and (iv) the Administrative
Agent may reflect in the applicable register its ownership interest in the Loans, subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment.
The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon
receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender or Swingline Lender shall
be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights,
remedies and claims against such Lender or Swingline Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf).
For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the individual Commitment of any Lender or Swingline
Lender and such individual Commitments of the Lenders and Swingline Lender shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion
thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment,
and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated
to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender or Swingline Lender under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment
Return Deficiency (the "**Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights** ").

**133**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.5 The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise
satisfy any of the Obligations owed by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment
is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from
the Borrowers or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.6 To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an
Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with
respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without
limitation waiver of any defense based on "discharge for value" or any similar doctrine.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12.13.7 Each party's obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 12.13 shall survive the
resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Swingline
Lender, the termination of the individual Commitment of a Lender and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or
any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

14.4 <u>Insurance</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.4.1 <u>Insurance:</u> In addition to any and all requirements in any Security Documents, each Obligor shall
effect and maintain, at its expense, insurance on its Assets of an insurable nature for the full replacement cost thereof against loss
or damage by fire, theft, flood, explosion, sprinklers, collision and such other risks (including loss of profit) as are customarily insured
against by Persons engaged in businesses similar to that of such Obligor in similar locations with such companies, in such amounts and
under policies in such form as shall be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and such other insurance as the Administrative Agent
may require. Evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent of such insurance and all renewals and replacements thereof shall be delivered
to the Administrative Agent forthwith on request, together with evidence of payment of all premiums therefor. Each insurance policy shall
contain an endorsement, in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent, showing loss under such insurance policy payable
to the Administrative Agent, in each case for the benefit of the Lenders. Such endorsement, or an independent instrument furnished to
the Administrative Agent, shall contain a standard mortgage clause, shall provide that the insurance company shall endeavour (without
liability for failure to do so) to give the Administrative Agent at least thirty (30) days written notice before any such policy of insurance
is cancelled or coverage thereunder is reduced and that no act, whether wilful or negligent, or default of any Obligor or any other Person
shall affect the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to recover under such policy of insurance in case of loss or damage.
Each Obligor hereby directs all insurers under such policies of insurance to pay all proceeds payable thereunder directly to the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders; <u>provided</u>, however that prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, payments by the insurer of any claim
in excess of C$250,000 shall be made to the joint order of the Administrative Agent and the relevant Obligor and payments of any other
claim may be made alone to the relevant Obligor, as the case may be. Each Obligor irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Administrative
Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Administrative Agent) as its true and lawful attorney and mandatary for
the purpose of making, settling and adjusting claims under such policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such Obligor on any cheque,
draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance and making all determinations and decisions
with respect to such policies of insurance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.4.2 <u>Public Liability</u>: Each Obligor shall effect and maintain, at its expense, such public liability
and third party property damage insurance as is customary for Persons engaged in businesses similar to that of such Obligor with such
companies and in such amounts, with such deductibles and under policies in the form as shall be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
Evidence of such insurance and all renewals and replacements thereof shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent on request, together
with evidence of payment of all premiums therefor. Each such policy shall provide that the insurance company shall endeavour (without
liability for failure to do so) to give the Administrative Agent at least thirty (30) days written notice before any such policy shall
be altered or cancelled.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.4.3 <u>Failure to insure</u>: Should any Obligor at any time or times hereafter fail to obtain or maintain
any of the policies of insurance required above or in any of the Security Documents, or to pay any premium in whole or in part relating
thereto, then the Administrative Agent, without waiving or releasing any obligation or default by such Obligor hereunder, may (but shall
be under no obligation to) obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premiums and take such other actions
with respect thereto as the Administrative Agent deems advisable. All sums disbursed by the Administrative Agent in connection with any
such actions, including, without limitation, court costs, expenses, other charges relating thereto and reasonable attorneys' fees,
shall be payable on demand by such Obligor to the Administrative Agent, for its own account and, until paid, shall bear interest at the
Canadian Rate if owing in CDollars or the US Base Rate, if owing in USDollars.

**165**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.4.4 <u>Notice of loss</u>: Each Obligor shall promptly give notice to the Administrative Agent of any loss
or damage by fire, theft, flood, explosion, sprinklers, collision or otherwise to its assets where the assets affected by such loss or
damage are worth more than C$5,000,000.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.4.5 <u>Application of Insurance Proceeds</u>: So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
(a) each Obligor shall be entitled to make, settle and adjust claims under its policies of insurance and (b) the Administrative
Agent agrees that if it receives proceeds of insurance with respect to any damage or loss of Assets it will, at the request of such Obligor,
deposit such proceeds to the account of the Canadian Borrower and to be dealt with in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and for so long as it is continuing, (a) all proceeds of insurance with respect to any
damage to or loss of Collateral shall be paid to the Administrative Agent, to be applied as the Required Lenders may, in their sole discretion,
decide, (b) each Obligor shall cooperate with the Administrative Agent in the making, settlement and adjustment of claims and (c) any
proceeds of insurance received by any Obligor shall be held by it for the benefit and as mandatary of and in trust for the Administrative
Agent and shall be forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent.

**SECURITY DOCUMENTS**

15.1 <u>Security Documents</u>

15.2 <u>Applicability of Security Documents</u> 

Each of the Security Documents existing or entered into on the date of this Agreement is hereby amended to the extent necessary to (i) provide that each Security Document is entered into for the benefit of the Secured Parties and that the Obligor has entered into the Security Document with or in favour of Bank of Montreal as agent for and on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties, and (ii) exclude from the Collateral (as defined in the applicable Security Document) the Excluded Assets.

Each of the Security Documents is a "Credit Support Document" for purposes of each Permitted Hedging Agreement (other than Permitted Hedging Agreements with lenders that are lenders under the Term Loan Agreement and not Lenders hereunder or Lenders under the Original Credit Agreement) and is security for all of the Obligations, whether now existing or hereafter arising, and the validity of the Guarantees and Security Documents shall not be affected by any termination of this Agreement, any Bank Product or any Permitted Hedging Agreement but shall continue until all Obligations have been fully satisfied and this Agreement, all Loan Documents, all Bank Products provided by Lenders and all Permitted Hedging Agreements have been terminated unless otherwise agreed by the Lenders and Hedge Providers which are parties thereto.

delivered and are in form suitable for filing or recording in all filing or recording offices that the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably
necessary or desirable in order to create a valid and perfected Lien on such Material Real Property in favor of the Administrative Agent
for the benefit of the Secured Parties and that all filing and recording taxes and fees have been paid or otherwise provided for in a
manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.3.2.2 fully paid American Land Title Association Lender's Extended Coverage title insurance policies or
the equivalent or other form available in each applicable jurisdiction (the "**Mortgage Policies**") in form and substance,

and reinsured by title insurers reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, insuring the Security Documents to be valid subsisting
Liens on the real property described therein in the ranking or the priority of which it is expressed to have within the Security Documents,
subject only to Permitted Liens, and providing for such other affirmative insurance (including endorsements for future advances under
the Loan Documents) and such coinsurance and direct access reinsurance as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request and is available
in the applicable jurisdiction at ordinary rates;

**167**

and any then completed Phase I type environmental assessment reports; <u>provided</u> that the Administrative Agent may in its reasonable
discretion accept any such existing survey to the extent prepared as of a date reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; <u>provided</u>,
however, that there shall be no obligation to deliver to the Administrative Agent any environmental site assessment report whose disclosure

**171**

16.2 <u>Effect of a Default</u> 

Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall at the request, or may with the consent, of the Required Lenders, by notice to the Obligors (i) declare the Total Commitment and the obligation of each of the Lenders to make Advances to the Canadian Borrower or the US Borrower to be terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate, and/or (ii) declare the Loan, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other amounts payable by the Obligors under or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Loan, all such accrued interest and all such other amounts shall become and be forthwith immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Obligors. Thereupon the Obligors shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent all such amounts due and payable. In addition to the foregoing, if an Event of Default pursuant to Section 16.1.8 shall occur, the Total Commitment and the obligation of each Lender to make Advances shall automatically be terminated and the Loan, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other amounts payable by the Obligors under or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall automatically be and become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Obligors, and thereupon the Obligors shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent all such amounts due and payable. For greater certainty, the Obligors will be considered to be in default of their obligations hereunder by the mere lapse of time provided for performing such obligations, without any requirement of further notice or other act of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders unless a notice is specifically required hereunder. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Lenders and/or the Administrative Agent on behalf of itself and the Lenders shall at the request of, or may with the consent of, the Required Lenders immediately exercise all rights and remedies they may have under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and by law, all without any additional notice, presentment, demand, protest, notice of dishonour, entering into possession of any of the property or other Assets, or any other action, of all of which are expressly waived by the Obligors.

16.3 <u>Remedies Cumulative; No Waiver</u> 

For greater certainty, it is expressly understood and agreed that the rights and remedies of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are in addition to, not in substitution for, any rights or remedies provided by law; no failure on the part of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right or remedy hereunder or thereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Lenders or the Administrative Agent of any right or remedy for a default or breach of any term, covenant, condition or agreement herein contained prejudice or preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy for the same or any other default or breach and shall not waive, alter, affect or prejudice any other right or remedy.

16.4 <u>Clean Up Period</u> 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, during the period commencing on the closing date of any Permitted Acquisition or investment and ending on the date 30 days thereafter (the "Clean Up Period") (a) any breach or default of any representation or warranty under ARTICLE 2 or any other Loan Document or a covenant under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (b) any Event of Default, will be deemed not to be a breach of representation or warranty or covenant or an Event of Default (as the case may be) if (i) it would have been (if it were not for this Section 16.4) a breach or default of any representation or warranty or covenant or an Event of Default only by reason of circumstances relating exclusively to the target, the target group or the property and assets of another Person or assets constituting a business unit, line of business or division of such Person in connection with such Permitted Acquisition or investment (or any obligation to procure or ensure in relation to such target, target group or the property and assets or business unit, line of business or division); (ii) it is capable of remedy and reasonable steps are being taken to remedy it; (iii) the circumstances giving rise to it have not been procured by or approved by the Canadian Borrower; and (iv) it would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. If the relevant circumstances are continuing on or after the date immediately following the end of the Clean Up Period, there shall be a breach of representation or warranty, breach of covenant or Event of Default, as the case may be, notwithstanding the above (and without prejudice to the rights and remedies of the Lenders as set forth in Section 16.2 hereof).

ARTICLE 17

**JUDGMENT CURRENCY**

17.1 <u>Judgment Currency</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17.1.1 If for any purpose, including the
 obtaining of judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder from the
 currency in which it is payable (the "**Payment Currency**") into another
 currency (the "**Judgment Currency** "), the parties hereto agree, to the fullest
 extent that they may lawfully and effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall
 be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the Administrative Agent
 could purchase the Payment Currency with the Judgment Currency in the New York foreign exchange
 market on the Business Day preceding the date of final judgment or other determination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17.1.2 The obligation of the Obligors in
 respect of any sum due from any of them to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent hereunder
 shall, notwithstanding any judgment or payment in a currency other than the Payment Currency,
 be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative
 Agent of any sum so paid or adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency the Administrative
 Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase the Payment Currency with
 the amount of the Judgment Currency so paid or adjudged to be due; if the amount in the Payment
 Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Lenders and the Administrative
 Agent in the Payment Currency, the Obligors agree, as a separate obligation and additional
 cause of action and notwithstanding any such payment or judgment, to indemnify the Lenders
 and the Administrative Agent against such loss and if the amount in the Payment Currency
 so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent in
 the Payment Currency, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent agree to remit to the Obligors
 such excess.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17.1.3 The term "rate of exchange"
 in this Section 17.1 means the spot rate at which the Administrative Agent, in accordance
 with normal practices, is able on the relevant date to purchase the Payment Currency with
 the Judgment Currency and includes any premium and costs of exchange payable in connection
 with the purchase.

ARTICLE 18

**YIELD PROTECTION**

18.1 <u>Increased Costs</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.1.1 <u>Increased Costs Generally</u>.
 If any Change in Law shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.1.1.1 impose, modify or deem applicable
 any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against
 assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by,
 any Lender;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.1.1.2 subject any Lender to any Tax of
 any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation
 in a Letter of Credit or any Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments
 to such Lender in respect thereof, except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by
 Section 18.2 and the imposition, or any change in the rate, of any Excluded Tax payable
 by such Lender; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.1.1.3 impose on any Lender or any applicable
 interbank market any other condition, cost or expense 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 of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank 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 or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then upon request of such Lender the Canadian Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.1.2 <u>Capital Requiremen</u> ts. If any
 Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such
 Lender or such Lender's holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements or
 liquidity has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's
 capital or on the capital of such Lender's holding company, if any, as a consequence
 of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or the Letters of
 Credit issued or participated in by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender
 or its holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration
 such Lender's policies and the policies of its holding company with respect to capital
 adequacy), then from time to time the Canadian Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional
 amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or its holding company for any such reduction
 suffered.

**174**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.1.3 <u>Certificates for Reimbursement</u>. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary
 to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph
 18.1.1 or 18.1.2 of this ARTICLE 18, including reasonable detail of the basis of calculation
 of the amount or amounts, and delivered to the Canadian Borrower shall be conclusive absent
 manifest error. The Canadian Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any
 such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.1.4 <u>Delay in Requests</u>. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant
 to this ARTICLE 18 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's right to demand
 such compensation, except that the Canadian Borrower shall not be required to compensate
 a Lender pursuant to this ARTICLE 18 for any increased costs incurred or reductions
 suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Canadian Borrower
 of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender's
 intention to claim compensation therefore, unless the Change in Law giving rise to such increased
 costs or reductions is retroactive, in which case the nine-month period referred to above
 shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

18.2 <u>Taxes</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.2.1 <u>Payments Subject to Taxes</u>. If any Obligor, the Administrative Agent, or any Lender is required
 by Applicable Law to deduct or pay any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) in respect
 of any payment by or on account of any obligation of an Obligor hereunder or under any other
 Loan Document, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased by that Obligor when payable
 as necessary so that after making or allowing for all required deductions and payments (including
 deductions and payments applicable to additional sums payable under this ARTICLE 18)
 the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum
 it would have received had no such deductions or payments been required, (ii) the Obligor
 shall make any such deductions required to be made by it under Applicable Law and (iii) the
 Obligor shall timely pay the full amount required to be deducted to the relevant Governmental
 Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.2.2 <u>Payment of Other Taxes by the Canadian Borrower</u>. Without limiting the provisions of paragraph 18.2.1 above, the Canadian
 Borrower and the US Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental
 Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.2.3 <u>Indemnification by the Canadian Borrower</u>. The Canadian Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender,
 within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other
 Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable
 to amounts payable under this ARTICLE 18) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender
 and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
 whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or
 asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment
 or liability <u>containing reasonable details as to the calculation thereof</u> delivered
 to the Canadian Borrower 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.

**175**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.2.4 <u>Evidence of Payments</u>. As soon
 as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by an Obligor to a Governmental
 Authority, the Obligor 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.2.5 <u>Status of Lenders</u>. Any Foreign
 Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law
 of the jurisdiction in which the Canadian Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty
 to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other
 Loan Document shall, at the request of the Canadian Borrower, deliver to the Canadian Borrower
 (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by Applicable
 Law or reasonably requested by the Canadian Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly
 completed and executed documentation prescribed by Applicable Law as will permit such payments
 to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, (a) any
 Lender, if requested by the Canadian Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver
 such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Canadian
 Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Canadian Borrower or the Administrative
 Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to withholding or information reporting
 requirements, and (b) any Lender that ceases to be, or to be deemed to be, resident
 in Canada for purposes of Part XIII of the *Income Tax Act* (Canada) or any successor
 provision thereto shall within five days thereof notify the Canadian Borrower and the Administrative
 Agent in writing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.2.6 <u>Treatment of Certain Refunds and Tax Reductions</u>. If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion,
 that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified
 by the Canadian Borrower or with respect to which an Obligor has paid additional amounts
 pursuant to this ARTICLE 18 or that, because of the payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes,
 it has benefited from a reduction in Excluded Taxes otherwise payable by it, it shall pay
 to the Canadian Borrower or Obligor, as applicable,
an amount equal to such refund or reduction (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Canadian
Borrower or Obligor under this ARTICLE 18 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund or reduction), net
of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any net
after-Tax interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). The Canadian Borrower or Obligor as applicable,
upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Canadian Borrower or Obligor
(plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender
if the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund or reduction to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph
shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information
relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Canadian Borrower or any other Person, to arrange its affairs in any particular
manner or to claim any available refund or reduction.

**176**

18.3 <u>Mitigation Obligations: Replacement of Lenders</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.3.1 <u>Designation of a Different Lending Office</u>. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 18.1, or requires the
 Canadian Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority
 for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 18.2, then such Lender shall 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 18.1 or 18.2, 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 Canadian Borrower
 hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection
 with any such designation or assignment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.3.2 <u>Replacement of Lenders</u>. If
 any Lender requests compensation under Section 18.1, if the Canadian Borrower is required
 to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account
 of any Lender pursuant to Section 18.2, or if any Lender's obligations are suspended
 pursuant to Section 18.4, then the Canadian Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort,
 upon 10 days' notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, or if any Lender
 defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then the Canadian Borrower may, at its
 sole expense and effort, upon 10 days' notice to the Administrative Agent (and without
 prior notice to such Lender), require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse
 (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by,
 ARTICLE 23), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the
 related other Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee
 may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

**177**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.3.2.1 the Borrower pays the Administrative
 Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 23.2.7;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.3.2.2 the assigning Lender receives payment
 of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in disbursements
 under Letters of Credit, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable
 to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any breakage costs and amounts
 required to be paid under this Agreement as a result of prepayment to a Lender) from the
 assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the
 Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.3.2.3 in the case of any such assignment
 resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 18.1 or payments required to be
 made pursuant to Section 18.2, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation
 or payments thereafter; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.3.2.4 such assignment does not conflict
 with Applicable Law.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Canadian Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

18.4 <u>Illegality</u> 

If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to make or maintain any Loan (or to maintain its obligation to make any Loan), or to participate in, issue or maintain any Letter of Credit (or to maintain its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to determine or charge interest rates based upon any particular rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender with respect to the activity that is unlawful shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if conversion would avoid the activity that is unlawful, convert any Loans, or take any necessary steps with respect to any Letter of Credit in order to avoid the activity that is unlawful. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

**178**

18.5 <u>Inability to Determine Rates (Bankers' Acceptances).</u> 

If the Required Lenders determine that for any reason a market for Bankers' Acceptances does not exist at any time or the Lenders cannot for other reasons, after reasonable efforts, readily sell Bankers' Acceptances or perform their other obligations under this Agreement with respect to Bankers' Acceptances, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Canadian Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the Canadian Borrower's right to request the acceptance of Bankers' Acceptances shall be and remain suspended until the Required Lenders determine and the Administrative Agent notifies the Canadian Borrower and each Lender that the condition causing such determination no longer exists. Upon receipt of such notice, the Canadian Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing, conversion or continuation of Bankers' Acceptances or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a borrowing of Canadian Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

18.6 <u>Alternate Rate of Interest</u> <u>Benchmark Replacement Setting</u> <u>(CDOR Discontinuation)</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.6.1 If the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error),

 Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying

 the interest rate of loans (each such specific date in clause 18.6.1.2 above and in this
 clause 18.6.1.318.6.1.3 a "**CDOR Scheduled Unavailability Date** "); or

 loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this
 Section 18.6, are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt
 a new benchmark interest rate to replace the CDOR Rate,

then reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may mutually agree upon a successor rate to the CDOR Rate, and the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the CDOR Rate with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein), giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar Canadian Dollars denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks (any such proposed rate, a "**CDOR Successor Rate**"), together with any proposed CDOR Successor Rate conforming changes and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders do not accept such amendment.

**179**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.6.2 If
 no CDOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under 18.6.1 exist or a
 CDOR Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Administrative Agent
 will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the
 obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Bankers' Acceptances and
 BA Equivalent Advances, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Bankers'
 Acceptances or BA Equivalent Advances or term). Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower
 may revoke any pending request for an Advance of, conversion to or rollover of Bankers'
 Acceptances or BA Equivalent Loans, (to the extent of the
 affected Bankers' Acceptances or BA Equivalent Advances or applicable periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to
 have converted such request into a request for a Canadian Rate Advance (subject to the foregoing
 18.6.2) in the amount specified therein.

ARTICLE 19

**RIGHT OF SETOFF**

19.1 <u>Right of Setoff</u> 

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each of the Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time 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 or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Obligor against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender has made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Obligor may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each the Lenders and their respective Affiliates under this ARTICLE 19 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff, consolidation of accounts and bankers' lien) that the Lenders or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. If any Affiliate of a Lender exercises any rights under this ARTICLE 19, it shall share the benefit received in accordance with ARTICLE 19 as if the benefit had been received by the Lender of which it is an Affiliate.

19.2 <u>Sharing of Payments by Lenders</u> 

If any Lender, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtains any payment or other reduction that might result in such Lender receiving payment or other reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other obligations hereunder greater than its *pro rata* share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such payment or other reduction 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 rateably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;19.2.1 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,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;19.2.2 the provisions of this Section 19.2
 shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by any Obligor pursuant to and
 in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement 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 disbursements under Letters of Credit to any assignee or participant,
 other than to any Obligor or any Affiliate of an Obligor (as to which the provisions of this
 Section 19.2 shall apply); and

**189**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;19.2.3 the provisions of this Section 19.2 shall not be construed to apply to (w) any payment made
while no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in respect of obligations of the Borrower to such Lender that do not arise under
or in connection with the Loan Documents, (x) any payment made in respect of an obligation that is secured by a Permitted Lien or
that is otherwise entitled to priority over the Borrower's obligations under or in connection with the Loan Documents, (y) any
reduction arising from an amount owing to an Obligor upon the termination of derivatives entered into between the Obligor and such Lender,
or (z) any payment to which such Lender is entitled as a result of any form of credit protection obtained by such Lender.

The Obligors consent to the foregoing and agree, to the extent they may effectively do so under Applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Obligor rights of setoff and counterclaim and similar rights of Lenders with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Obligor in the amount of such participation.

ARTICLE 20

**ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT'S CLAWBACK**

20.1 <u>Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent.</u> 

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any advance of funds that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's share of such advance, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement concerning funding by Lenders and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable advance available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with prevailing banking industry practice on interbank compensation. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in such advance. If the Lender does not do so forthwith, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon at the interest rate applicable to the advance in question. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that has failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

20.2 <u>Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent.</u> 

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute the amount due to the Lenders. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender 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 determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with prevailing banking industry practice on interbank compensation.

**190**

ARTICLE 21

**AGENCY**

21.1 <u>Appointment and Authority.</u> 

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints BMO as the Administrative Agent to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have the authority (a) to enter into any joinder agreement on behalf of the Lenders and on its own behalf entered into pursuant to Section 14.1.9 by a Person who has become a Subsidiary of the Canadian Borrower for the purpose of becoming a Guarantor under this Agreement, and (b) to enter into any joinder agreement to the Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of the Lenders and on its own behalf. The provisions of this ARTICLE 21 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, and no Obligor shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

21.2 <u>Rights as a Lender.</u> 

The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with any Obligor or any Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account to the Lenders.

21.3 <u>Exculpatory Provisions</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.3.1 The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein
and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.3.1.1 shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred
and is continuing;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.3.1.2 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 in the Loan Documents), but 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 Applicable Law; and

**191**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.3.1.3 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 the Canadian 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.3.2 The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the
consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as is necessary, or as the Administrative
Agent believes in good faith is necessary, under the provisions of the Loan Documents) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence
or wilful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing
the Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Canadian Borrower or a Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.3.3 Except as otherwise expressly specified in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible
for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder
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, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness
of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition
specified in this Agreement, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

21.4 <u>Reliance by Administrative Agent</u> 

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 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 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 of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Bank 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 Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

**192**

21.5 <u>Indemnification of Administrative Agent</u> 

Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and hold it harmless (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), rateably according to its Applicable Percentage (and not jointly or jointly and severally) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel, which may be incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or the transactions therein contemplated. However, no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses resulting from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

21.6 <u>Delegation of Duties</u> 

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 from among the Lenders (including the Person serving as Administrative Agent) and their respective Affiliates. 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 provisions of this Article and other provisions of this Agreement for the benefit of the Administrative Agent 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 credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

21.7 <u>Replacement of Administrative Agent</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.7.1 The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank
and the Canadian Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, to appoint a successor
acceptable to the Borrowers acting reasonably, which shall be a Lender having a Commitment to a revolving credit if one or more is established
in this Agreement and having an office in Toronto, Ontario or Montréal, Québec, or an Affiliate of any such Lender with
an office in Toronto or Montréal. The Administrative Agent may also be removed at any time by the Required Lenders upon 30 days'
notice to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Borrower as long as the Required Lenders, in consultation with the Canadian Borrower,
appoint and obtain the acceptance of a successor within such 30 days, which shall be a Lender having a Commitment to a revolving credit
if one or more is established in this Agreement and having an office in Toronto or Montréal, or an Affiliate of any such Lender
with an office in Toronto or Montréal.

**193**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.7.2 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, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting
the qualifications specified in Section 21.7.1, provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Canadian Borrower and
the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance
with such notice and (1) the retiring 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
under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as
a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) 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 directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint
a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in the preceding paragraph.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.7.3 Upon 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 former Administrative Agent, and the former Administrative
Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged
therefrom as provided in the preceding paragraph). The fees payable by the Canadian Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall
be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Canadian Borrower and such successor. After the termination
of the service of the former Administrative Agent, the provisions of this ARTICLE 21 and of ARTICLE 22 shall continue in effect
for the benefit of such former 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 former Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

21.8 <u>Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders</u> 

Each Lender and the Issuing Bank 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 the Issuing Bank 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.

**194**

21.9 <u>Collective Action of the Lenders</u> 

Each of the Lenders hereby acknowledges that to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, any collateral security and the remedies provided under the Loan Documents to the Lenders are for the benefit of the Lenders collectively and acting together and not severally and further acknowledges that its rights hereunder and under any collateral security are to be exercised not severally, but by the Administrative Agent upon the decision of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for in the Loan Documents). Accordingly, notwithstanding any of the provisions contained herein or in any collateral security, each of the Lenders hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not be entitled to take any action hereunder or thereunder including, without limitation, any declaration of default hereunder or thereunder but that any such action shall be taken only by the Administrative Agent with the prior written agreement of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for in the Loan Documents). Each of the Lenders hereby further covenants and agrees that upon any such written agreement being given, it shall co- operate fully with the Administrative Agent to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the absence of instructions from the Lenders and where in the sole opinion of the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably and in good faith, the exigencies of the situation warrant such action, the Administrative Agent may without notice to or consent of the Lenders take such action on behalf of the Lenders as it deems appropriate or desirable in the interest of the Lenders.

21.10 <u>No Other Duties. Etc.</u> 

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Bookrunners, Arrangers or holders of similar titles, if any, specified in this Agreement 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 or a Lender hereunder.

The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 22.3 are subject to the other provisions of this Agreement concerning several liability of the Lenders.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 23.3, 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 other Loan Documents, including any collateral security, 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 ARTICLE 18 and ARTICLE 22, and shall continue to be liable for any breach of this Agreement by such Lender, with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 23.4. Any payment by an assignee to an assigning Lender in connection with an assignment or transfer shall not be or be deemed to be a repayment by the Borrower or a new Loan to the Borrower.

23.3 <u>Register</u> 

The Administrative Agent shall maintain at one of its offices in Toronto, Ontario or Montréal, Québec 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 Commitments of, and principal amounts 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 Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

**199**

23.4 <u>Participations</u> 

Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, an Obligor or any Affiliate of an Obligor) (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); <u>provided</u> 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 Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any payment by a Participant to a Lender in connection with a sale of a participation shall not be or be deemed to be a repayment by the Borrower or a new Loan to the Borrower.

Subject to Section 23.5, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of ARTICLE 18 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 23.2. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 19.1 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 19.2 as though it were a Lender.

23.5 <u>Limitations upon Participant Rights</u> 

A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 18.1 and 18.2 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower's prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 18.2 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 18.2.5 as though it were a Lender.

23.6 <u>Certain Pledges</u> 

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, but 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.

23.7 <u>Related Party Lenders and Former Lenders</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.7.1 The Facility A Commitment, Facility C Commitment, Facility D Commitment and Facility E Commitment of the
Affiliated Lenders and Affiliated Debt Funds in the aggregate at any time shall not be more than 25% of the Facility A Total Commitment,
Facility C Total Commitment, Facility D Total Commitment and Facility E Total Commitment, respectively (the "**Affiliated Lender Cap** ").

**200**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.7.2 Notwithstanding anything in the definition of "Required Lenders" or Section 21.9 or
 Section 24.3 to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders have (A) consented (or not
 consented) to any amendment, modification,
waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Obligor therefrom, or any
plan of arrangement or any reorganization pursuant to Debtor Relief Laws, (B) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document,
or (C) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with
respect to or under any Loan Document, no Affiliated Lender, Affiliated Debt Fund or Former Lender shall have any right to consent (or
not consent), otherwise act or direct or require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to take (or refrain from taking) any such action
and all Loans held by such Affiliated Lenders, Affiliated Debt Funds or Former Lenders respectively shall be deemed to have been voted
in the same proportion as the allocation of voting by Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders, Affiliated Debt Funds or Former Lenders,
respectively for all purposes of calculating whether the Required Lenders have taken any actions; each Affiliated Debt Fund hereby acknowledges,
agrees and consents that if, for any reason, its vote to accept or reject any plan pursuant to any Debtor Relief Laws is not deemed to
have been so voted, then such vote will be (x) deemed not to be in good faith and (y) "designated" pursuant to Section 1126(e) of
the *United States Bankruptcy Code* (or similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws) such that the vote is not counted in determining
whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such plan in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the *United States Bankruptcy Code* (or any such similar provision).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.7.3 Affiliated Lenders, Affiliated Debt Funds and any Person who is a direct or indirect holder of an Equity
Interest in the Canadian Borrower shall not be entitled to attend any meeting of the Lenders which are called solely for the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders or to receive any information provided solely to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders except with the consent
of the Required Lenders given in accordance with Section 23.7.2.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.7.4 Each Affiliated Lender and Affiliated Debt Fund which is a Lender hereunder agrees that it shall not take
or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy against the Administrative Agent or any Lender
with respect to (A) any consent (or failure to consent) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect
to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Obligor therefrom, or (B) any plan of arrangement or any reorganization
pursuant to Debtor Relief Laws, or (C) any other action on any matter related to any Loan Document or direction requiring the Administrative
Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document.

provided that any change contemplated by Section 24.3.1.1, 24.3.1.2, 24.3.1.3, 24.3.1.4 or 24.3.1.5 which affects (i) only the Facility A Credit shall require the approval only of those Lenders having a Facility A Commitment, (ii) only the Facility C Credit shall require the approval only of those Lenders having a Facility C Commitment, (iii) only the Facility D Credit shall require the approval only of those Lenders having a Facility D Commitment, and (iv) only the Facility E Credit shall require the approval only of those Lenders having a Facility E Commitment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.3.2 <u>Non-Consenting Lenders</u>: In the event that in connection with any proposed amendment, modification,
termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Section 24.3.1, the consent of Lenders
having at least 90% of the Total Commitment, the Facility A Total Commitment, the Facility C Total Commitment, the Facility D Total Commitment
or the Facility E Total Commitment, as applicable, shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders (each
a "**Non-Consenting Lender**") whose consent is required shall not have been obtained; then, with respect to each Non-Consenting
Lender (the "**Terminated Lender**") the Canadian Borrower may, by giving written notice to the Agent and any Terminated
Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign
and delegate, and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by,
ARTICLE 23), to all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related other Loan Documents in full to
one or more Eligible Assignees (each a "**Replacement Lender**") in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.3.2.1 the Canadian Borrower pays the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 23.2.7;

**203**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.3.2.2 on the date of such assignment, the Terminated Lender receives payment of an amount (the "**Terminated Lender Payout Amount**") equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in disbursements under Letters of
Credit, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including
any breakage costs and amounts required to be paid under this Agreement as a result of prepayment to a Lender) from the Replacement Lender
(to the extent of such outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in disbursements under Letters of Credit, accrued interest
and accrued fees) or the Canadian Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.3.2.3 on the date of such assignment, the Canadian Borrower shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated
Lender in respect to any costs pursuant to Section 12.10.3 or otherwise owed as a consequence of such repayment or otherwise as if
it were a prepayment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.3.2.4 each Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which
such Terminated Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.3.2.5 such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law;

provided further that the Canadian Borrower may not make such election with respect to any Terminated Lender that is also the Issuing Bank unless, prior to the effectiveness of such election, the Canadian Borrower shall cause each outstanding Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank to be cancelled or cash collateralized or otherwise supported in a manner satisfactory to the Issuing Bank. Upon the payment of the Terminated Lender Payment Amount owing to any Terminated Lender and the assignment or termination of such Terminated Lender's Commitment under the relevant Credit or Credits, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a "Lender" with respect to such Credit for purposes hereof; <u>provided</u>, any rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender. Should there not be Replacement Lenders available to take an assignment of the outstanding Advances and the Commitment of the Non-Consenting Lender, the Canadian Borrower shall be entitled to make payment of the Terminated Lender Payout Amount in full to the Non- Consenting Lender and terminate its Commitment under the relevant Credit or Credits from proceeds derived exclusively from the issuance of Equity Interests of the Canadian Borrower.

delivered by it if it ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted by this Agreement (including as a result
of a Guarantor (other than the Borrowers) being designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24.3.4 <u>Approval by Required Lenders</u>: Except for the matters described in Sections 24.3.1 and 24.3.2 and
subject to any other provision of this Agreement which specifically requires the consent of each Lender for a matter, any action to be
taken or decision to be made by the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement (specifically including for greater certainty the issuance of a
demand for payment of the Obligations or the provision of any waiver in respect of a breach of any covenant) shall be effective if approved
by Required Lenders pursuant to ARTICLE 21; and any such decision or action shall be final and binding upon all the Lenders.

which relate to or affect only the Facility A Credit, only the Facility C Credit, only the Facility D Credit or only the Facility E Credit

The obligations of each of the Lenders are independent from one another, are not joint and several, and may not be increased, reduced, extinguished or otherwise affected due to the default of another Lender pursuant hereto. Any default of any party hereto in the performance of its obligations shall not release any of the other parties hereto from the performance of any of their respective obligations.

Each Obligor agree that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may share (i) amongst themselves and their respective Affiliates which any of them may possess concerning any Obligor in respect of its undertakings, obligations or indebtedness towards any Lender pursuant to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or otherwise, as well as any payment received from any Obligor by any Lender and (ii) amongst themselves and any lenders under the Term Loan Agreement any information relating to the Loan Documents, the Term Loan Agreement and any "Loan Documents" as such term is defined therein and any amendments, waivers, consents, defaults or events of default thereunder.

The Obligors agree to do, execute, acknowledge, deliver, or cause to be done, executed, acknowledged or delivered, all such further acts, deeds, documents, opinions and assurances as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender from time to time during the term hereof for the purpose of effecting the transactions contemplated hereby and by the Loan Documents.
