    SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE AGREEMENT    
    

        SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE AGREEMENT dated as of April 12, 2011 among MOLSON COORS BREWING COMPANY, a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), MOLSON COORS BREWING COMPANY (UK) LIMITED, MOLSON CANADA 2005, MOLSON COORS CANADA INC. and MOLSON COORS INTERNATIONAL LP (the
"Initial Borrowing Subsidiaries" and, together with the Company and other Borrowing Subsidiaries from time to time party to the Credit Agreement, the
"Borrowers"), each subsidiary of the Company listed on Schedule I hereto and DEUTSCHE BANK AG NEW YORK BRANCH, as Administrative Agent (the
"Administrative Agent"), on behalf of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement referred to below. 

        Reference
is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of April 12, 2011 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the
"Credit Agreement"), among the Company, the Initial Borrowing Subsidiaries and other Borrowing Subsidiaries from time to time party thereto, the Lenders
from time to time party thereto, the Administrative Agent and Deutsche Bank AG, Canada Branch, as Canadian Administrative Agent. The Lenders have agreed to extend credit to the Borrowers subject to
the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. The obligations of the Lenders to extend such credit are conditioned upon, among other things, the execution and delivery of this Agreement.
Each of the Guarantors (as defined below) is a Subsidiary of the Company and an affiliate of the Borrowers, will derive substantial benefits from the extension of credit to the Borrowers pursuant to
the Credit Agreement and is willing to execute and deliver this Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to extend such credit. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

        SECTION 1.    Definitions.    

        (a)   Capitalized
terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings specified in the Credit Agreement. 

        (b)   The
rules of construction specified in Section 1.03 of the Credit Agreement also apply to this Agreement. 

        (c)   As
used in this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings specified below: 

        "Canadian Guarantor" means any Guarantor that is a Canadian Subsidiary other than (i) Molson Coors Capital Finance ULC,
(ii) Molson Coors International General, ULC, (iii) Coors International Holdco, ULC, (iv) Molson Coors Callco ULC, (v) Molson Canada 2005 and
(vi) any other Foreign Subsidiary that Guarantees or is otherwise liable for any of the Senior Notes. 

        "Guarantors" means (a) the Subsidiaries identified on Schedule I hereto and (b) each other Subsidiary that becomes a
party to this Agreement as a Guarantor after the Effective Date. 

        "UK Guarantor" means any Guarantor that is a UK Subsidiary. 

        SECTION 2.    Guarantee.    

        (a)   (i)
Each Guarantor (other than Canadian Guarantors and UK Guarantors) hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, jointly with the other Guarantors and severally,
as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the payment when and as due of all the Obligations; 

         (ii)  each
Canadian Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, jointly with the other Canadian Guarantors and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely
as a surety, the payment when and as due of the Obligations of the Canadian Borrowing Subsidiaries (other than its own Obligations as a Canadian Borrowing Subsidiary); and 

        (iii)  each
UK Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, jointly with the other UK Guarantors and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely as a
surety, the payment when and as
due of the Obligations of the UK Borrowing Subsidiaries (other than its own Obligations as a UK Borrowing Subsidiary). 

 

        (b)   Each
of the Guarantors further agrees that the due and punctual payment of the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further
assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation. Without prejudice to the Borrowers' rights to receive demands for payment
in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and to the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Guarantors waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to any Borrower or any
other Loan Party of any of the Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its guarantee and notice of protest for nonpayment. 

        SECTION 3.    Guarantee of Payment.    Each of the Guarantors further agrees that its guarantee hereunder
constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall have stayed the accrual or collection of any of the Obligations or operated as a discharge
thereof) and not merely of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Agent or Lender to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Agent or Lender
in favor of any Borrower or any other Person. 

        SECTION 4.    No Limitations, Etc.    

        (a)   Except
for termination of a Guarantor's obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Section 20, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be
subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense or
setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Obligations, any impossibility in the performance of any of the
Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any Agent or Lender to assert
any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Loan Party under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any of the Obligations;
(iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, any Loan Document or any other agreement, including with respect to any other
Guarantor under this Agreement; (iv) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations; or (v) any other act, omission or delay to do
any other act that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment
in full in cash of all the Obligations guaranteed hereunder by such Guarantor) or which would impair or limit the right of any Guarantor to subrogation. 

        (b)   To
the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party or
the unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, other than the payment in full in
cash of all the Obligations guaranteed hereunder by such Guarantor. The Agents and the Lenders may, at their election, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations, make any other accommodation
with any of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against any of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, without affecting or impairing in any
way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Obligations guaranteed hereunder by such Guarantor have been fully paid in full in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement
or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against any of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, as the case may be. 

2

 

        SECTION 5.    Reinstatement.    Each of the Guarantors agrees that its guarantee hereunder shall continue to be
effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation guaranteed hereunder by such Guarantor is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any
Agent or Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, any other Loan Party or otherwise. 

        SECTION 6.    Agreement to Pay; Indemnity: Subrogation: Contribution.    In furtherance of the foregoing and
not in limitation of any other right which any Agent or Lender may have at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party to
pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor that guarantees such Obligation hereby promises
to and will, upon receipt of written demand by any Agent or Lender, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Applicable Agent or Lender in cash the amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of
such Obligations then due, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Each Guarantor further agrees that if payment in respect of any Obligation guaranteed hereunder by such Guarantor shall be
due in a currency other than US Dollars and/or at a place of payment other than New York and if, by reason of any Change in Law, disruption of currency or foreign exchange markets, war or civil
disturbance or other event, payment of such Obligation in such currency or at such place of payment shall be impossible or, in the reasonable judgment of any Agent or Lender, not consistent with the
protection of its rights or interests, then, at the election of the Administrative Agent, such Guarantor shall make payment of such Obligation in US Dollars (based upon the applicable Exchange Rate in
effect on the date of payment) and/or in New York, and shall indemnify each Agent and Lender
against any losses or reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that it shall sustain as a result of such alternative payment. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums as provided in
this Section 6, all rights of such Guarantor against any of the Borrowers or any other Guarantor arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement,
indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash of all the Obligations owed by such Borrower or Guarantor to the Agents
and Lenders. 

        Subject
to the subordination provisions contained in the preceding paragraph of this Section 6, (i) each of the Borrowers agrees to indemnify any Guarantor making any
payment as required under this Section 6 for the full amount of such payment and, until such indemnification obligation shall have been satisfied, such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the
rights of the person to whom such payment shall have been made to the extent of such payment, and (ii) each Guarantor (a "Contributing
Guarantor") agrees that, in the event a payment shall be made by any other Guarantor under this Agreement, and such other Guarantor (the "Claiming
Guarantor") shall not have been fully indemnified by the Borrowers as provided for in clause (i), the Contributing Guarantor shall, to the extent the Claiming Guarantor
shall not have been so indemnified by the Borrowers, indemnify the Claiming Guarantor in an amount equal to the amount of such payment, multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the net
worth of the Contributing Guarantor on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 21, the date of the Supplement hereto executed and delivered
by such Guarantor) and the denominator shall be the aggregate net worth of all the Guarantors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to
Section 21, the date of the Supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Guarantor). Any Contributing Guarantor making any payment to a Claiming Guarantor pursuant to this Section 6
shall be subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Guarantor under clause (i) to the extent of such payment. 

        SECTION 7.    Information.    Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed
of each of the Borrowers' and each other Loan Party's financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations and the nature, scope and
extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none 

3

 

of
the Agents or any Lender will have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks. 

        SECTION 8.    Notices.    All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly
permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to any Guarantor shall be given to it in care of the
Company as provided in Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement. 

        SECTION 9.    Survival of Agreement.    All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the
Guarantors herein and in any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and
the making of any Loans and acceptance and purchase of any B/As, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent or any Lender may have
had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended under the Credit Agreement, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the
principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or B/A or any fee or any other amount payable under any Loan Document is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. 

        SECTION 10.    Binding Effect:    Several Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as to any Guarantor
when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such Guarantor shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Administrative
Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Guarantor and the Administrative Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such Guarantor, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Guarantor shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any
interest herein (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed as a separate
agreement with respect to each Guarantor and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Guarantor without the approval of any other Guarantor and without affecting
the obligations of any other Guarantor hereunder. 

        SECTION 11.    Successors and Assigns.    Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to,
such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of any Guarantor or the Administrative Agent
that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective permitted successors and assigns. 

        SECTION 12.    Administrative Agent's Fees and Expenses; Indemnification.    

        (a)   The
parties hereto agree that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement of its expense incurred hereunder as provided in Section 10.03 of the
Credit Agreement. 

        (b)   Without
limitation of its indemnification obligations under the other Loan Documents, each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent
and the other Indemnitees (as defined in Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all actual out-of-pocket losses,
claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (other than Taxes which, in all cases, are subject to indemnity only pursuant to Section 2.16 of the Credit Agreement and the last sentence of
this clause (b)), including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with,
or as a result of, the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement in relation to such Guarantor or any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to the foregoing agreement,
whether or not any Indemnitee is 

4

 

a
party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is instituted by a third party or by any of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee,
be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith
or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Parties. Subject to Section 2.16 of the Credit Agreement, all payments by each Guarantor under this Agreement shall be made
without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (and the Administrative Agent and each Guarantor hereby agree to comply with the provisions of Section 2.16 of the
Credit Agreement as if said Section referred to this Agreement and payments by such Guarantor hereunder). 

        (c)   Any
such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional Obligations. The provisions of this Section 12 shall remain operative and in full force and
effect regardless of the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or
unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of any Agent or Lender. All amounts due under this Section 12
shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor. 

        SECTION 13.    Applicable Law.    THIS
AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

        SECTION 14.    Waivers: Amendment.    

        (a)   No
failure or delay by any Agent or Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The
rights and remedies of the Agents and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver
of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Guarantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this
Section 14, and then such waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor to any other or further notice or
demand in similar or other circumstances. 

        (b)   Neither
this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into between the
Administrative Agent and the Guarantors with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required in accordance with Section 10.02 of the Credit
Agreement. 

        SECTION 15.    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.    EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS
REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO
HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 

5

 

        SECTION 16.    Severability.    In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement
should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The
parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible
to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 

        SECTION 17.    Counterparts.    This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute
an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 10. Delivery of an executed signature page to this
Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement. 

        SECTION 18.    Headings.    Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of
this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

        SECTION 19.    Jurisdiction: Consent to Service of Process.    

        (a)   Each
Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New
York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims
in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final
judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or
any other Loan Document shall affect any right that any Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any
Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 

        (b)   Each
of the Guarantors hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or
hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (a) of this
Section 19. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in
any such court. 

        (c)   Each
party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8. Nothing in this Agreement or any other
Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 

        SECTION 20.    Termination or Release.    

        (a)   Subject
to the reinstatement provisions of Section 5, the guarantee of a Guarantor hereunder shall be automatically terminated when all Obligations guaranteed by
such Guarantor have been paid in full and the Lenders have no further commitment under the Credit Agreement to lend to, or accept and purchase B/As issued by, any Borrower whose Obligations are
guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder. Subject to the reinstatement provisions of Section 5, this Agreement 

6

 

shall
terminate when all the Obligations have been paid in full and the Lenders have no further commitment to lend or accept and purchase B/As under the Credit Agreement. 

        (b)   A
Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement as a result of
which such Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Company; provided that the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction (to the extent required by the Credit Agreement) and the
terms of such consent did not provide otherwise. 

        (c)   In
connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraphs (a) or (b), the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Guarantor, at such
Guarantor's expense, all documents that such Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 20
shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent. 

        SECTION 21.    Additional Subsidiaries.    Pursuant to Section 5.09 of the Credit Agreement, each
Significant Subsidiary (other than a Foreign Subsidiary that is not a Canadian Subsidiary, a UK Subsidiary or a Foreign Subsidiary that Guarantees or is otherwise liable for the Senior Notes) that was
not in existence or not a Subsidiary on the date of the Credit Agreement is required to enter into this Agreement as a Guarantor upon becoming such a Significant Subsidiary within 15 days of
becoming a Significant Subsidiary. Upon execution and delivery by the Administrative Agent and a Significant Subsidiary of an instrument in the form of Exhibit I hereto, such Significant
Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the
consent of any other Loan Party hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Loan Party as a party to
this Agreement. 

        SECTION 22.    Right of Setoff.    If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender
and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or
demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against any of and all the
obligations of such Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and
although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section 22 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may
have. 

        IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have duly executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

        SUPPLEMENT NO.    dated as
of                            , 20    , to the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement dated as of
April 11, 2011, among MOLSON COORS BREWING COMPANY, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), MOLSON COORS BREWING COMPANY (UK) LIMITED, MOLSON
CANADA 2005, MOLSON COORS CANADA INC. and MOLSON COORS INTERNATIONAL LP (the "Initial Borrowing Subsidiaries" and, together with the
Company and other Borrowing Subsidiaries from time to time party to the Credit Agreement, the "Borrowers"), each subsidiary of the Company listed on
Schedule I hereto (each such subsidiary individually, a "Guarantor" and collectively, the
"Guarantors") and DEUTSCHE BANK AG NEW YORK BRANCH, as Administrative Agent (the "Administrative
Agent"). 

        A.    Reference
is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of April 11, 2011 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the
"Credit Agreement"), among the Company, the Initial Borrowing Subsidiaries and other Borrowing Subsidiaries from time to time party thereto, the Lenders
from time to time party thereto, the Administrative Agent and Deutsche Bank AG, Canada Branch, as Canadian Administrative Agent. 

        B.    Capitalized
terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement and the Subsidiary Guarantee
Agreement referred to therein. 

        C.    The
Guarantors have entered into the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make Loans and accept and purchase B/As upon the terms and subject
to the conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. Section 21 of the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement provides that additional Subsidiaries of the Company may become Guarantors under the
Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement by execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement. The undersigned Subsidiary (the "New
Subsidiary") is executing this Supplement in accordance with the requirements of the Credit Agreement to become a Guarantor under the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement in order to
induce the Lenders to make additional Loans and accept and purchase
additional B/As and as consideration for Loans previously made and B/As previously accepted and purchased. 

        Accordingly,
the Administrative Agent and the New Subsidiary agree as follows: 

        SECTION 1.  In
accordance with Section 21 of the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement, the New Subsidiary by its signature below becomes a Guarantor under the
Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a Guarantor and the New Subsidiary hereby (a) agrees to all the terms and provisions of the
Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement applicable to it as a Guarantor thereunder and (b) represents and warrants that the representations and warranties made by it as a Guarantor thereunder are true
and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof. Each reference to a "Guarantor" in the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement shall be deemed
to include the New Subsidiary. The Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference. 

        SECTION 2.  The
New Subsidiary represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and
delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
or other laws affecting creditors' rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 

        SECTION 3.  This
Supplement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original,
but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Supplement shall become effective when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts of this Supplement that,
when taken together, bear the signatures of the New Subsidiary and the Administrative Agent. Delivery of an 

 

executed
signature page to this Supplement by facsimile transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Supplement. 

        SECTION 4.  Except
as expressly supplemented hereby, the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. 

        SECTION 5.  THIS SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

        SECTION 6.  In
case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Supplement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a
particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace
the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 

        SECTION 7.  All
communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 8 of the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement. All
communications and notices hereunder to the New Subsidiary shall be given to it at the address set forth under its signature below. 

        SECTION 8.  The
New Subsidiary agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this
Supplement, including the reasonable fees, other charges and out-of-pocket disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent. 

        IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the New Subsidiary and the Administrative Agent have duly executed this Supplement to the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

  W I T N E S S E T H    
    

        WHEREAS, the Company and the existing Guarantors have heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee indentures (the
"Indentures" and each an "Indenture") described on  Exhibit A hereto, relating to certain Senior Notes
(the "Securities") of the Company; 

        WHEREAS,  Section 4.9 of each Indenture provides that if the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates
another Restricted Subsidiary (other than Foreign Subsidiaries) after the Issue Date, then the Company shall cause the newly acquired or created Restricted Subsidiary (i) to become a Guarantor
by executing a supplemental indenture and (ii) to deliver an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee as provided in such Section; and 

        WHEREAS,
pursuant to Section 9.1 of each Indenture, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee are authorized to execute and
deliver this Supplemental Indenture to amend or supplement each Indenture without the consent of any Holder, with this Supplemental Indenture serving as the numbered supplemental indenture to each
respective Indenture as set forth on Exhibit B hereto; 

        NOW
THEREFORE, to comply with the provisions of each Indenture and in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby
acknowledged, the New Guarantor, the other Guarantors, the Company and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities as follows: 

        1.     CAPITALIZED
TERMS.    Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indentures. 

        2.     AGREEMENT
TO GUARANTEE.    The New Guarantor hereby agrees, jointly and severally, with all other Guarantors, to unconditionally Guarantee to each Holder and to
the Trustee the Obligations, to the extent set forth in the Indentures and subject to the provisions in the Indentures. The obligations of the Guarantors to the Holders of Securities and to the
Trustee pursuant to the Subsidiary Guarantees and the Indentures are expressly set forth in Article X of each Indenture and reference is hereby
made to each Indenture for the precise terms of the Subsidiary Guarantees. 

        3.     EXECUTION
AND DELIVERY.    The New Guarantor agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse
on each Security a notation of such Subsidiary Guarantee. 

        4.     NEW
YORK LAW TO GOVERN.    THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE AND ENFORCE THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE. 

        5.     COUNTERPARTS.    The
parties may sign any number of copies of this Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together
represent the same agreement. This Supplemental Indenture may be executed in multiple counterparts which, when taken together, shall constitute one instrument. 

        6.     EFFECT
OF HEADINGS.    The Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 

        7.     THE
TRUSTEE.    Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no duties, responsibilities or liabilities are assumed, or shall be construed to be assumed, by
the Trustee by reason of this Supplemental Indenture. This Supplemental Indenture is executed and accepted by the Trustee subject to all the terms and conditions set forth in the Indentures with the
