date for any applicable period was inaccurate, and (b) a proper calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for any such period

be deemed to remain unchanged, and Agent and Lenders shall have no obligation to repay interest to the Borrowers; provided, that,
if as a result of any restatement or other event or other determination by Agent a proper calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage

pursuant to clause (i) above shall be based upon the excess, if any, of the amount of interest that should have been paid for all
applicable periods over the amounts of interest actually paid for such periods.

Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.3 hereof, in the event any Borrower desires an Equipment Loan,
Borrowing Agent shall give Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice. Should any amount required to be paid as
interest hereunder, or as fees or other charges under this Agreement or any other agreement with Agent or Lenders, or with respect

installments each in the amount of $500,000.00 which commenced on January 1, 2017 and shall continue on the first day of each

(ii)         
Equipment Loans shall be made available to US Borrowers during the period commencing on the Thirteenth Amendment

with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all unpaid fees, costs and expenses payable hereunder in connection therewith,
shall be due and payable in full upon the expiration of the Term, subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
under this Agreement or termination of this Agreement. Equipment Loans shall be evidenced by one or more secured promissory notes
(collectively, the “Equipment Note”) in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit 2.3(b). The Equipment Loans
may consist of Domestic Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, or a combination thereof, as Borrowing Agent may request; and in the
event that Borrowers desire to obtain or extend any Equipment Loan (or any portion thereof) as a Eurodollar Rate Loan or to convert
any Equipment Loan (or any portion thereof) from a Domestic Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Rate Loan, Borrowing Agent shall comply with
the notification requirements set forth in Sections 2.2(b) and/or (e) and the provisions of Sections 2.2(b) through (i) shall apply.

Interest on Advances shall be payable in arrears on the first day of each month with respect to Domestic Rate Loans and, with respect
to Eurodollar Rate Loans, at the end of each Interest Period. Interest charges shall be computed on the actual principal amount
of Advances outstanding during the month at a rate per annum equal to, with respect to the Term Loan, Equipment Loans, and Revolving
Advances, the applicable Interest Rate. Whenever, subsequent to the date of this Agreement, the Alternate U.S. Base Rate is increased
or decreased, the applicable Interest Rate for Domestic Rate Loans shall be similarly changed without notice or demand of any kind
by an amount equal to the amount of such change in the Alternate U.S. Base Rate during the time such change or changes remain in
effect. The Eurodollar Rate shall be adjusted with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans without notice or demand of any kind on the

other than Eurodollar Rate Loans shall bear interest at the applicable Interest Rate for Domestic Rate Loans, plus two (2%)

Cost of such equipment purchased by such Borrower, and (iv) such other documentation and evidence that Agent may request; and (b)
after giving effect thereto, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Equipment Loans shall not exceed the Maximum Equipment

    	 	9	 

     

    

(c)       Any
Lender, with the consent of Agent which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, may sell, assign or transfer all or any
part of its rights and obligations under or relating to Revolving Advances, the Term Loan, and/or Equipment Loans under this Agreement
and the Other Documents to one or more additional banks or financial institutions and one or more additional banks or financial
institutions may commit to make Advances hereunder (each a “Purchasing Lender”), in minimum amounts of not less than
$2,000,000, pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement, executed by a Purchasing Lender, the transferor Lender, and Agent and
delivered to Agent for recording. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the transfer effective
date determined pursuant to such Commitment Transfer Supplement, (i) Purchasing Lender thereunder shall be a party hereto and,
to the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder with a Commitment
Percentage as set forth therein, and (ii) the transferor Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer
Supplement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement, the Commitment Transfer Supplement creating a novation for that
purpose. Such Commitment Transfer Supplement shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary
to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of the Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase
by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement and
the Other Documents. Any and all such sales, assignments and transfers shall be pro rata as to the Commitment Percentages of the
transferor Lender in all Advances; in no event shall any Lender hold, sell or acquire differing percentages of Advances or commitments
to fund Advances, including without limitation relating to US Obligations versus Canadian Obligations. Each Borrower hereby consents
to the addition of such Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of the Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase
by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement and
the Other Documents. Borrowers shall execute and deliver such further documents and do such further acts and things in order to
effectuate the foregoing.

 

(d)       Any
Lender, with the consent of Agent which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, may directly or indirectly sell, assign
or transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under or relating to Revolving Advances, the Term Loan, and/or Equipment
Loans under this Agreement and the Other Documents to an entity, whether a corporation, partnership, trust, limited liability company
or other entity that (i) is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in bank loans and similar extensions
of credit in the ordinary course of its business and (ii) is administered, serviced or managed by the assigning Lender or an Affiliate
of such Lender (a “Purchasing CLO” and together with each Participant and Purchasing Lender, each a “Transferee”
and collectively the “Transferees”), pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement modified as appropriate to reflect
the interest being assigned (“Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement”), executed by any intermediate purchaser, the
Purchasing CLO, the transferor Lender, and Agent as appropriate and delivered to Agent for recording. Upon such execution and delivery,
from and after the transfer effective date determined pursuant to such Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement, (i) Purchasing
CLO thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement, have the rights
and obligations of a Lender thereunder and (ii) the transferor Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Modified
Commitment Transfer Supplement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement, the Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement
creating a novation for that purpose. Such Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the
extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing CLO. Each Borrower hereby consents to the
addition of such Purchasing CLO. Borrowers shall execute and deliver such further documents and do such further acts and things
in order to effectuate the foregoing.
