presents (this “Security Agreement”), that NATIONAL RENTAL GROUP FINANCING INC.,
of 7700 France  Avenue

Party”), for the purpose of financing in whole or in part the purchase price of the Financed Assets
(defined below) described on Attachment A attached hereto and
incorporated herein by reference
as though fully set forth herein, the total amount of advance (hereinafter
called the “Total Advance Amount”) set forth on  Attachment A, and for the purpose of securing the payment
of the Total Advance Amount, and for each and every other indebtedness or obligation now owing or hereafter owed by
Debtor to Secured Party including, without limitation, Borrower’s Obligations,
by these presents does grant
unto Secured Party, its successors and assigns, a first priority security
interest in and lien on all of Debtor’s right, title and interest in and to the properties, rights, interests and
privileges described in parts (a)-(g), inclusive, of this paragraph, wherever
located, and whether now or hereafter existing or now owned or hereafter
acquired or arising: (a) the vehicles (including, without limitation, such vehicles as are on order but
not yet delivered to Debtor), described on Attachment A and all
substitutions, replacements,
accessories, attachments and accessions of the foregoing (collectively
“Financed Assets”); (b) the Master Motor Vehicle Lease and Servicing Agreement dated as of October 31, 2003 between
Debtor, as lessor and Vanguard Car Rental USA Inc., a Delaware corporation, as lessee and as
servicer, as the same may from time to time be amended, modified, supplemented,
extended, renewed and/or
restated (the “Master Lease”), and all leases, accounts, contract rights,
tangible chattel paper, electronic chattel paper (including leases), instruments, documents, promissory notes and
supporting obligations arising from the use, sale, lease, or other disposition of the Financed Assets, but in
all cases excluding Daily Rental Contracts and all proceeds of Daily Rental
Contracts; (c) all books;
records, files, computer disks, software and commercial tort claims involving
or relating to the Financed Assets; (d) all payment intangibles or other rights to receive
payment, credits and other compensation (including, without limitation, all holdbacks,
incentive payments, stock
rebates, allowances and additional “factory credits”) from any manufacturer,
distributor or supplier of the Financed Assets solely with respect to the Financed Assets or from any of their
subsidiaries or affiliates solely with respect to the Financed Assets (other than Daily Rental Incentive
Payments); (e) all payments and credits that Debtor may owe to Secured Party,
and all of Debtor’s funds that
may be in Secured Party’s possession or that Secured Party may retain, whether
in the form of cash, collateral, reserve,
contingency or escrow accounts, or otherwise; (f) all accounts, contract
rights, franchise rights, manufacturer rebates and incentive payments (other than Daily Rental
Incentive Payments), and general intangibles now or hereafter owned by or due
to Debtor (excluding warranty

otherwise due to Debtor solely with respect to the Financed Assets and in all cases excluding Daily Rental Contracts

Daily Rental Contracts (all of which described in parts (a) through (g),
inclusive, is collectively called the “Secured Property”). The Secured Property shall not include (i) any Daily Rental
Contracts, (ii) any products or proceeds of any Daily Rental Contracts, or (iii) any Daily Rental
Incentive Payments from any manufacturer, distributor, or supplier of the
Financed Assets or from any of
their subsidiaries or affiliates. The definitions of the types of Secured
Property described in this paragraph are intended to change and expand as the definitions and
descriptions of such types of Secured Property that are set forth in the Code
change or expand. The Total Advance
Amount is being used to purchase the Property, thereby creating a purchase
money priority security interest
in the Secured Property. Such purchase money priority security interest in the
Secured Property also secures all other loans, advances, indebtedness and other types of obligations of Debtor to or
in favor of Secured Party, whether under the Financing Agreement or otherwise, and whether used to
purchase the Secured Property, other collateral for such debt and obligations
or used for purposes unrelated
to the purchase of the Secured Property or any such other collateral (the Total
Advance Amount and all such other loans,
advances, indebtedness and other obligations including, but not limited to,
Borrower’s Obligations being called herein the “Secured Obligations”).

 

Secured Party, its
successors and assigns shall have and hold the same unto itself, its successors
and assigns forever, provided that if Debtor shall fully pay unto Secured
Party, its successors and assigns, at the office of Secured Party set forth
herein or at such other place as Secured Party shall designate, the total of
all of the Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms of that certain
Financing Agreement by and among Secured Party and Debtor dated as of the date
hereof (the “Financing Agreement”) and of the terms and conditions set forth
herein, and if Secured Party shall have no remaining obligation to extend any
additional Advances to Debtor, then this Security Agreement shall be
extinguished, and, provided, further, that upon payment in full to Secured
Party, its successors and assigns, at the office of Secured Party set forth
herein or at such other place as Secured Party shall designate, of the Total
Advance Amount made with respect to any Eligible Vehicle in accordance with the
term of the Financing Agreement and of the terms and conditions set forth
herein, then such Eligible Vehicle and all Secured Property related solely to
such Eligible Vehicle shall be released from this Security Agreement, otherwise
to remain in full force and effect.

 

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

 

1.             This Security Agreement is one of several Security
Agreements that is being executed pursuant to the terms of the  Financing Agreement. This Security Agreement
(Advance) is executed and delivered pursuant to the Financing Agreement in order to more particularly identify
certain of the Collateral which the Debtor has assigned and granted, or does
hereby assign and grant, a security interest in and to Secured Party, and to
confirm the assignment under, and security interest created by, the Financing
Agreement and the Security Agreement dated October      ,
2003 with respect to such Collateral. All capitalized terms used in this
Security Agreement and not otherwise expressly defined herein shall

 

1

 

have the same meanings as
are set forth in the Financing Agreement. All of the Secured Property also
constitutes Collateral under the Financing Agreement. All of the covenants,
agreements, obligations, representations and warranties of the Debtor as the
“Borrower” under the Financing Agreement (including, without limitation,
covenants regarding the insuring of, and the perfection of Secured Party’s
security interests in, the Secured Property and indemnities), and all of the
rights and remedies of Secured Party under the Financing Agreement, are
incorporated into this Security Agreement by express reference as if fully set
forth herein. Among other things, the purpose of this Security Agreement is to
supplement the Financing Agreement to: (i) specifically identify the Secured
Property; and (ii) provide supplemental covenants, agreements, obligations,
representations, warranties, rights and remedies with respect to the Secured
Property. This Security Agreement does not in any way limit or impair the
covenants, agreements, obligations, representations, warranties, rights and
remedies, with respect to the Collateral (including the Secured Property) or
otherwise, that are contained in the Financing Agreement.

 

2.             Debtor warrants and agrees that Debtor is the lawful
owner of, and/or has the power to transfer, the Secured Property and that the
Secured Property is free of all liens, taxes and encumbrances (except as stated
in the Financing Agreement) and that Debtor will keep same free of all liens,
taxes and encumbrances; that a certificate of title to the Property showing a
first priority lien for the benefit of the Secured Party hereof has been, or
forthwith will be applied for in accordance with the Financing Agreement and
that Debtor has registered each Eligible Vehicle in its name as owner or, with
respect to Refinanced Eligible Vehicles, the registered owner of each is either
National Car Rental Financing Limited Partnership or Alamo Financing L.P. and
the only lienholder is Citibank N.A. as agent.

 

3.             Debtor is a corporation duly organized, validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Debtor’s exact
legal name is “National Rental Group Financing Inc.” Debtor has not during the
past five (5) years conducted business under any name other than the name
“National Rental Group Financing Inc.” Debtor will not change its type of
organization, its jurisdiction of organization, its name or its organizational
identification number unless (i) Debtor gives Secured Party at least thirty
(30) days prior written notice of the same, (ii) such change is permitted
pursuant to the terms of the Financing Agreement and the other Transaction
Documents and (iii) prior to making any such change, Debtor executes (if
necessary) and/or obtains and delivers to Secured Party any and all additional
financing statements and/or amendments thereto and/or other agreements,
documents or notices as may be required by Secured Party.

 

4.             Debtor’s chief executive office and the location of the
only office where it keeps its books and records respecting the Collateral is
that given at the beginning of this Agreement.

 

5.             Debtor hereby irrevocably authorizes Secured Party at
any time and from time to time to file in any UCC jurisdiction initial financing
statements,  amendments and/or
continuations thereto which, among other information,  may contain any information required by
Article 9 of the UCC of the applicable jurisdiction for the sufficiency or
filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment, including
whether Debtor  is an
organization, the type of organization and any organization identification
number issued to Debtor. Debtor agrees to furnish any such information to
Secured Party promptly upon request. Debtor also ratifies its authorization for
Secured Party to have filed in any UCC jurisdiction any like initial financing
statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date of this Agreement.

 

6.             Debtor further collaterally assigns to, agrees to hold
in trust for and to pay promptly unto Secured Party,  its successors and assigns at the time
received by Debtor (1) any and all proceeds of the Collateral by whomsoever
procured (other than proceeds derived from Daily Rental Contracts) and (2) any
and all proceeds of the sale or any other disposition of the Secured Property.
Such proceeds shall be credited to the Loan as provided in the Financing
Agreement.

 

7.             The occurrence of any of the following events or
conditions shall constitute an “Event of Default” under this Security
Agreement: (a) Debtor shall fail to perform or observe any of the terms,
provisions, covenants or agreements contained in Sections 3 or 6 of this
Security Agreement; (b) Debtor shall fail to perform or observe any of the
other terms, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in this Security
Agreement and any such failure shall remain unremedied for thirty (30) days
after the earlier of (i) written notice of default is given to Debtor by
Secured Party or (ii) any officer of Debtor obtains knowledge of such default;
or (c) any “Event of Default” (as defined therein) shall occur under or within
the meaning of the Financing Agreement or any Transaction Document which is not cured or waived within the
applicable cure or grace period.

 

8.             Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, in addition
to and without limitation of the rights and remedies of Secured Party that
arise with respect to the Secured Obligations and the Secured Property under
the Financing Agreement and any other Transaction Documents: (a) Secured Party
shall have the right at its election to declare the unpaid principal balance of
any and all Secured Obligations immediately due and payable including all
accrued interest with respect thereto; (b) Secured Party, its agents or
representatives may without notice or demand, enter upon the premises where the
Secured Property may be located, and hold same temporarily without liability on
the part of the Secured Party; (c) Secured Party may, after retaining
possession of the Secured Property, as and if required by law, sell same at
public or private sale (at which Secured Party may purchase the same), or
dispose of the same, or otherwise, in such manner and upon such terms as shall
appear to Secured Party to be reasonable commercially without demand for
performance, with such notice to Debtor, if any, as may be required by law,
with or without having the Secured Property at the place of sale or other
disposition and (d) Secured Party may collect and enforce, against the Account
Debtors under, obligors under, makers of or other counterparties to any Secured
Property (other than any party to Daily Rental Contracts), all Secured Property
(including Leases) that is comprised of accounts, chattel paper (including
electronic chattel paper), instruments, promissory notes, supporting Secured
Obligations, documents, general intangibles, 
payment intangibles and the proceeds thereof (other than with respect to
Daily Rental Contracts). With respect to any sale of the Secured Property by
Secured Party under this paragraph: (i) Secured Party has no obligation to
clean-up or otherwise prepare any of the Secured Property for sale; (ii) upon
demand, Debtor will assemble the Secured Property and make it available to
Secured Party at a location designated by Secured Party which shall be
reasonably convenient to Secured Party and Debtor; (iii) Secured Party may, in
any such sale, specifically disclaim any warranties of title or fitness or any
other warranties that are legally waivable; (iv) Secured Party may comply with
any applicable state or federal  law
requirements in connection with the Secured Property, and the disposition
thereof, and such compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the
commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Secured Property; (v) Debtor
agrees that ten (10) days prior written notice of any sale of the Secured
Property shall be deemed to be reasonable

 

2

 

notice of such sale, whether
such sale is public, private or a strict foreclosure; and (vi) if Secured Party
sells any of the Secured Property upon credit (A) the Secured Obligations will be credited only with payments
actually made by the purchaser of the Secured Property that are received by
Secured Party and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser to Secured Party
in connection with the sale of the Secured Property and (B) in the event the
purchaser fails to pay for the Secured Property, Secured Party may resell the
Secured Property and no portion of the unpaid sales price to purchaser will be
credited against the Secured Obligations. Debtor waives any right it may have
to require Secured Party to pursue any third party for the Secured Obligations.
The proceeds of any such sale or disposition shall be applied first to the
actual and reasonable cost of such sale, next to the actual and reasonable cost
of retaking and storage of the Secured Property and then to the satisfaction of
all interest on and the unpaid balance of all of the Secured Obligations. If
the proceeds of the sale mentioned above are not sufficient to defray the
expenses thereof, the actual and reasonable expenses of retaking, storing and
disposing the Secured Property, including reasonable attorney fees, as may be
permitted by law, and to satisfy all amounts due, by acceleration or otherwise,
the Debtor or any Person who has succeeded to the Secured Obligations of the
Debtor shall pay and the Secured Party may recover the deficiency with interest
at the Default Rate then in effect, or the highest lawful contract rate,
whichever is less. Such repossession and sale shall not affect Secured Party’s
right, hereby confirmed, to retain all payments made prior thereto by Debtor.
Each remedy provided to Secured Party shall be cumulative and shall be in
addition to every other remedy given hereunder under any other Transaction
Document or provided by law. Debtor shall reimburse Secured Party for all costs
and expenses and other amounts in accordance with the Financing Agreement.

 

9.             No warranties, express or
implied, and no representations, promises or statements have been made by
Secured Party unless contained in the Transaction Documents. No
modification of any of the terms and conditions hereof shall be valid in any
event and Debtor expressly waives the right to rely thereon unless made in
writing duly executed by the Secured Party.

 

10.           Except as otherwise provided in paragraph 8 hereof and the
Financing Agreement, Secured Party and the Debtor shall have the respective
rights and duties with respect to the Secured Property that are provided for
under the Code.

 

11.           This Security Agreement is governed by the laws of the
State of New York without reference to conflict of law principles.

SECTION
2. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS

 

2.1.          Term Loan Commitments. Subject
to the terms and conditions hereof, the Term Loan Lenders severally agree to
make term loans (each, a “Term Loan”) to the US Borrower on the Closing
Date in an amount for each Term Loan Lender not to exceed the amount of the
Term Loan Commitment of such Lender. The Term Loans may from time to time be
Eurodollar Loans or Base Rate Loans, as determined by the US Borrower and
notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.2 and 2.13.

 

2.2.          Procedure for Term Loan Borrowing.
The US Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Notice
(which Borrowing Notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to
10:00 A.M., New York City time, one Business Day prior to the anticipated Closing
Date for Base Rate Loans or three Business Days prior to the Closing Date for
Eurodollar Loans) requesting that the applicable Term Loan Lenders make the
applicable Term Loans on the Closing Date. Upon receipt of such Borrowing
Notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Term Loan Lender
thereof. Not later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the Closing Date
each Term Loan Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent at the
Funding Office an amount in immediately available funds equal to the Term Loan
or Term Loans to be made by such Lender. The Administrative Agent shall make
available to the US Borrower the aggregate of the amounts made available to the
Administrative Agent by the Term Loan Lenders, in like funds as received by the
Administrative Agent.

 

2.3.          Repayment of Term Loans. The
Term Loans of each Term Loan Lender shall mature in 28 consecutive quarterly
installments, commencing on September 30, 2006, each of which shall be in an

2.4.          Revolving Credit Commitments.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the US Revolving Credit Lenders
severally agree to make revolving credit loans (“US Revolving Credit Loans”)
in Dollars to the US Borrower from time to time during the US Revolving Credit
Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding
for each US Revolving Credit Lender which, when added to such Lender’s US
Revolving Credit Percentage of the sum of (i) the US L/C Obligations then
outstanding and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Swing Line Loans
then outstanding, does not exceed the amount of such Lender’s US Revolving
Credit Commitment. During the US Revolving Credit Commitment Period the US
Borrower may use the US Revolving Credit Commitments by borrowing, prepaying in
whole or in part, and reborrowing the US Revolving Credit Loans, all in
accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. The US Revolving Credit Loans
may from time to time be Eurodollar Loans or Base Rate Loans, as determined by
the US Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with
Sections 2.5 and 2.13, provided, that no US Revolving Credit Loan shall
be made as a Eurodollar Loan after the day that is one month prior to the US
Revolving Credit Termination Date.

 

(b)           The US Borrower from time to time may
request the Administrative Agent to consent to an increase in the aggregate US
Revolving Credit Commitments on the following terms:

 

(i)            The aggregate
amount of all such increases shall not exceed $25,000,000.

 

(ii)           No Lender will be
obligated to provide or commit for any such increase.

 

(iii)          If the
Administrative Agent consents to any such increase and determines that one or
more of the Lenders or other Persons reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative

 

32

 

Agent
and US Borrower are willing to commit to provide such increase, such increase
will be effective on the date the Administrative Agent receives an amendment to
this Agreement executed by the US Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such
Lender or other Person, adding, in the case of an existing Lender, such
commitment to Annex B-2 and, in the case of a Person not then already a Lender,
confirming that such Person has become a Lender for all purposes of this
Agreement. Such amendment will not require the consent of any other Lender.

 

(iv)          On the effective
date of such amendment, each Lender or other Person committing to provide such
increase shall fund US Revolving Credit Loans in an amount equal to its US
Revolving Credit Percentage (after giving effect to such amendment) of the
aggregate US Revolving Credit Loans outstanding immediately before giving
effect to such amendment, and the proceeds of such funding shall be applied to
repay on a pro rata basis the US Revolving Credit Loans outstanding before
giving effect to such amendment. Each Lender receiving any such repayment will
be entitled to all amounts payable under Section 2.21 in connection therewith

 

(c)           The US Borrower shall repay all
outstanding US Revolving Credit Loans on the US Revolving Credit Termination
Date.

 

(d)           Subject to the terms and conditions
hereof, the Canadian Revolving Credit Lenders severally agree to make revolving
credit loans (“Canadian Revolving Credit Loans”) in Canadian Dollars to
the Canadian Borrower from time to time during the Canadian Revolving Credit
Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding
for each Canadian Revolving Credit Lender which, when added to such Lender’s
Canadian Revolving Credit Percentage of the Canadian L/C Obligations then
outstanding, does not exceed the amount of such Lender’s Canadian Revolving
Credit Commitment. During the Canadian Revolving Credit Commitment Period the
Canadian Borrower may use the Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments by
borrowing, prepaying in whole or in part, and reborrowing the Canadian
Revolving Credit Loans, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.
The Canadian Revolving Credit Loans may from time to time be by way of Banker’s
Acceptance or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, in Canadian Dollars only, as
determined by the Canadian Borrower and notified to the Canadian Agent in
accordance with Sections 2.5 and 2.13, provided, that no Canadian Revolving
Credit Loan shall be made as a Banker’s Acceptance after the day that is one
month prior to the Canadian Revolving Credit Termination Date.

 

(e)           The Canadian Borrower shall repay all
outstanding Canadian Revolving Credit Loans on the Canadian Revolving Credit
Termination Date. If for any reason the Canadian Borrower is prohibited from
making any required payment in Canadian Dollars, the Canadian Borrower shall
make such payment in Dollars at the Dollar Equivalent of the Canadian Dollar
payment amount.

 

(f)            Notwithstanding any provisions to
the contrary in this Section 2.4 or in Section 3.1 or any other provision of
this Agreement relating to (i) the availability and permitted maximum outstanding
amounts of US Revolving Credit Loans, US L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans
or (ii) availability and permitted maximum outstanding amounts of Canadian
Revolving Credit Loans and Canadian Letters of Credit, the Borrower will not
cause or permit the aggregate outstanding amount of US Revolving Credit Loans,
US L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans, when added to the aggregate outstanding
amount of the Canadian Revolving Credit Loans and Canadian L/C Obligations
(converted to Dollars at the Exchange Rate) to exceed the then amount of the
Total US Revolving Credit Commitments.

 

2.5.          Procedure for Revolving Credit
Borrowing. (a) The US Borrower may borrow under the US Revolving Credit
Commitments on any Business Day during the US Revolving Credit Commitment
Period, provided, that the US Borrower shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent a

 

33

 

Borrowing Notice (which
Borrowing Notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00
Noon, New York City time), (a) three Business Day prior to the requested
Borrowing Date, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, or (b) one Business Day prior
to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Base Rate Loans. Any US
Revolving Credit Loans made on the Closing Date shall initially be Base Rate
Loans. Each borrowing of US Revolving Credit Loans under the US Revolving
Credit Commitments shall be in an amount equal to (x) in the case of Base Rate
Loans, $1,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof (or, if the then aggregate
Available US Revolving Credit Commitments are less than $1,000,000 such lesser
amount) and (y) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, $1,000,000 or a whole multiple
of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; provided, that the Swing Line Lender
may request, on behalf of the US Borrower, borrowings of Base Rate Loans under
the US Revolving Credit Commitments in other amounts pursuant to Section 2.7.
Upon receipt of any such Borrowing Notice from the US Borrower, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each US Revolving Credit Lender
thereof. Each US Revolving Credit Lender will make its US Revolving Credit
Percentage of the amount of each borrowing of US Revolving Credit Loans
available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the US Borrower at the
Funding Office prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time on the Borrowing Date
requested by the US Borrower in funds immediately available to the
Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will then be made available to the US
Borrower by the Administrative Agent in like funds as received by the
Administrative Agent.

 

(b)           The Canadian Borrower may borrow
under the Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments on any Business Day during the
Canadian Revolving Credit Commitment Period, provided, that the Canadian
Borrower shall deliver to the Canadian Agent a Borrowing Notice (which Borrowing
Notice must be received by the Canadian Agent prior to 12:00 Noon, Toronto time
one Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing Date in the case of Canadian
Prime Rate Loans or Banker’s Acceptances). Any Canadian Revolving Credit Loans
made on the Closing Date shall initially be Canadian Prime Rate Loans. Each
borrowing of Canadian Revolving Credit Loans under the Canadian Revolving
Credit Commitments shall be in an amount equal to (x) in the case of Canadian
Prime Rate Loans, Cdn. $500,000 or a whole multiple of Cdn. $100,000 in excess
thereof (or, if the then aggregate Available Canadian Revolving Credit
Commitments are less than Cdn. $100,000 (or, if applicable, the Dollar
Equivalent thereof), such lesser amount) and (y) in the case of Banker’s
Acceptance, Cdn. $500,000 and a whole multiple of Cdn. $100,000 in excess thereof.
Upon receipt of any such Borrowing Notice from the Canadian Borrower, the
Canadian Agent shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and each Canadian
Revolving Credit Lender thereof. Each Canadian Revolving Credit Lender will
make its Canadian Revolving Credit Percentage of the amount of each borrowing
of Canadian Revolving Credit Loans available to the Canadian Agent for the
account of the Canadian Borrower at the Canadian Funding Office prior to 12:00
Noon, Toronto time, on the Borrowing Date requested by the Canadian Borrower in
funds immediately available to the Canadian Agent. Such borrowing will then be
made available to the Canadian Borrower by the Canadian Agent in like funds as
received by the Canadian Agent.

 

(c)           The Canadian Borrower hereby
designates the US Borrower as its representative and agent on its behalf for
the purposes of issuing Borrowing Notices and notices of conversion or continuation,
giving instructions with respect to the disbursement of the proceeds of the
Canadian Revolving Credit Loans, selecting interest rate options, giving and
receiving all other notices and consents hereunder or under any of the other
Loan Documents and taking all other actions (including in respect of compliance
with covenants) on behalf of the Canadian Borrower under the Loan Documents. The
Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent and each Lender may regard any notice
or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document from the US Borrower as a
notice or communication from the Canadian Borrower and the US Borrower. Each
warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on behalf of the Canadian
Borrower by the US Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made
by the Canadian Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against the
Canadian Borrower to the same extent as it if the same had been made directly
by the Canadian Borrower.

 

34

 

(d)           (i) On each Borrowing Date on which
Banker’s Acceptances are to be accepted, the Canadian Agent shall advise the
Canadian Borrower as to the Canadian Agent’s determination of the applicable
Discount Rate for the Banker’s Acceptances which any of the Canadian Revolving
Credit Lenders have agreed to purchase.

 

(ii)           Each Canadian Revolving Credit Lender
shall purchase a Banker’s Acceptance accepted by it, and the Canadian Borrower
shall sell such Banker’s Acceptance at the applicable Discount Rate. The
relevant Canadian Revolving Credit Lender shall provide to the Canadian Agent
on the Borrowing Date the Discount Proceeds less the Acceptance Fee payable by
the Canadian Borrower with respect to the Banker’s Acceptance. On any date on
which a conversion or continuance of a maturing Banker’s Acceptance shall
occur, the Canadian Agent shall be entitled to net all amounts payable on such
date by that Canadian Agent to Canadian Revolving Credit Lender against all
amounts payable on such date by such Canadian Revolving Credit Lender to the
Canadian Agent. Similarly, on any Borrowing Date on which Banker’s Acceptances
are to be accepted, the Canadian Borrower hereby authorizes each Canadian
Revolving Credit Lender to net all amounts payable on such day by such Canadian
Revolving Credit Lender to the Canadian Agent for the account of the Canadian
Borrower, against all amounts payable on such day by the Canadian Borrower to
such Canadian Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with the Canadian Agent’s
calculations.

 

(iii)          Each Canadian Revolving Credit Lender
may from time to time hold, sell, rediscount or otherwise dispose of any or all
Banker’s Acceptances accepted and purchased by it; provided that it
shall not sell or dispose of any Banker’s Acceptance to a Non-Canadian Lender.

 

(iv)          To facilitate the issuance of Banker’s
Acceptances, the Canadian Borrower hereby appoints each Canadian Revolving
Credit Lender as its attorney to sign and endorse on its behalf, in handwriting
or by facsimile or mechanical signature as and when deemed necessary by such
Canadian Revolving Credit Lender, blank forms of Banker’s Acceptances. In this
respect, it is each Canadian Revolving Credit Lender’s responsibility to
maintain an adequate supply of blank forms of Banker’s Acceptances for
acceptance under this Agreement. The Canadian Borrower recognizes and agrees
that all Banker’s Acceptances signed and/or endorsed on its behalf by a
Canadian Revolving Credit Lender shall bind the Canadian Borrower as fully and
effectually as if signed in the handwriting of and duly issued by the proper
signing officers of the Canadian Borrower. Each Canadian Revolving Credit
Lender is hereby authorized to issue such Banker’s Acceptance endorsed in blank
in such face amounts as may be determined by such Canadian Revolving Credit
Lender; provided, that the aggregate face amount thereof is equal to the
aggregate face amount of Banker’s Acceptances required to be accepted and
purchased by such Canadian Revolving Credit Lender. No Canadian Revolving
Credit Lender shall be liable for any damage, loss or other claim arising by
reason of any loss or improper use of any such instrument except the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the Canadian Revolving Credit Lender or its
officers, employees, agents or representatives. Each Canadian Revolving Credit
Lender shall maintain a record with respect to Banker’s Acceptances held by it
in blank hereunder, voided by it for any reason, accepted and purchased by it
hereunder, and cancelled at their respective maturities. Each Canadian
Revolving Credit Lender agrees to provide such records to the Canadian Borrower
at the Canadian Borrower’s expense upon request.

 

(v)           Drafts drawn by the Canadian Borrower
to be accepted as Banker’s Acceptances shall be signed by a duly authorized
officer or officers of the Canadian Borrower or by its attorneys including
attorneys appointed pursuant to this Section 2.5. Notwithstanding that any
Person whose signature appears on any Banker’s Acceptance may no longer be an
authorized signatory for the Canadian Borrower at the time of issuance of a
Banker’s Acceptance, that signature shall nevertheless be valid and

 

35

 

sufficient for all purposes
as if the authority had remained in force at the time of issuance and any
Banker’s Acceptance so signed shall be binding on the Canadian Borrower.

 

(vi)          The Canadian Agent, promptly following
receipt of a Borrowing Notice for Banker’s Acceptances, shall advise the
Administrative Agent and the Canadian Revolving Credit Lenders of the notice
and shall advise each Canadian Revolving Credit Lender of the face amount of
Banker’s Acceptances to be accepted by it and the applicable Interest Period
(which shall be identical for all Canadian Revolving Credit Lenders). The
aggregate face amount of Banker’s Acceptances to be accepted by a Canadian
Revolving Credit Lender shall be determined by the Canadian Agent by reference
to that Canadian Revolving Credit Lender’s Canadian Revolving Credit Percentage
of the issue of Banker’s Acceptances, except that, if the face amount of a
Banker’s Acceptance which would otherwise be accepted by a Canadian Revolving
Credit Lender would not be Cdn. $100,000 or a whole multiple thereof, the face
amount shall be increased or reduced by the Canadian Agent in its sole
discretion to Cdn. $100,000, or the nearest whole multiple of that amount, as
appropriate; provided, that after such issuance, no Canadian Revolving
Credit Lender shall have aggregate outstanding Canadian Revolving Credit Loans
in excess of its Canadian Revolving Credit Commitment.

 

(vii)         The Canadian Borrower waives presentment
for payment and any other defense to payment of any amounts due to a Canadian
Revolving Credit Lender in respect of a Banker’s Acceptance accepted and
purchased by it pursuant to this Agreement which might exist solely by reason
of the Banker’s Acceptance being held, at the maturity thereof, by the Canadian
Revolving Credit Lender in its own right and the Canadian Borrower agrees not
to claim any days of grace if the Canadian Revolving Credit Lender as holder
sues the Canadian Borrower on the Banker’s Acceptance for payment of the amount
payable by the Canadian Borrower thereunder.

 

(viii)        Whenever the Canadian Borrower requests
a Canadian Revolving Credit Loan under this Agreement by way of Banker’s
Acceptances, each Non BA Lender shall, in lieu of accepting a Banker’s
Acceptance, make a BA Equivalent Loan in an amount equal to the Non BA Lender’s
Canadian Revolving Credit Percentage of the Canadian Revolving Credit Loan.

 

(ix)           As set out in the definition of
Banker’s Acceptances, that term includes Discount Notes and all terms of this
Agreement applicable to Banker’s Acceptances shall apply equally to Discount
Notes evidencing BA Equivalent Loans with such changes as may in the context be
necessary. For greater certainty:

 

(a)       the term of a Discount Note
shall be the same as the Interest Period for Banker’s Acceptances accepted and
purchased on the same Borrowing Date in respect of the same Canadian Revolving
Credit Loan;

 

(b)      an acceptance fee will be
payable in respect of a Discount Note and shall be calculated at the same rate
and in the same manner as the Acceptance Fee in respect of a Banker’s
Acceptance; and

 

(c)       the Discount Rate
applicable to a Discount Note shall be the Discount Rate applicable to Banker’s
Acceptances accepted by the Canadian Agent (as Canadian Revolving Credit
Lender) on the same Borrowing Date, as the case may be, in respect of the same
Canadian Revolving Credit Loan.

 

(x)            At the option of any Canadian
Revolving Credit Lender, Banker’s Acceptances under this Agreement to be accepted
by that Canadian Revolving Credit Lender may be issued in the form of
depository bills for deposit with The Canadian Depository for Securities
Limited pursuant to the

 

36

 

Depository Bills and Notes Act
(Canada). All depository bills so issued shall be governed by the provisions of
this Section 2.5.

 

(xi)           If at any time any Banker’s
Acceptances are to be paid prior to their maturity, the Canadian Borrower shall
be required to deposit the amount of such prepayment in a cash collateral
account with the Canadian Agent until the date of maturity of those Banker’s
Acceptances and otherwise pursuant to cash collateral arrangements satisfactory
to the Canadian Agent. The cash collateral account shall be under the sole
control of the Canadian Agent. Except as contemplated by this Section 2.5,
neither the Canadian Borrower nor any Person claiming on behalf of the Canadian
Borrower shall have any right to any of the cash in the cash collateral
account. The Canadian Agent shall apply the cash held in the cash collateral
account to the face amount of those Banker’s Acceptances at maturity whereupon
(so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) any cash
remaining in the cash collateral account shall be released by the Canadian
Agent to the Canadian Borrower.

 

(xii)          The Canadian Borrower hereby
unconditionally agrees to pay the Canadian Agent for the account of each
Canadian Revolving Credit Lender on the maturity date (whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) for each Banker’s Acceptance created by
such Canadian Revolving Credit Lender for the account of the Canadian Borrower,
the aggregate undiscounted face amount of each such then maturing Banker’s
Acceptance. Payment for any such Banker’s Acceptance may be satisfied by a
conversion or continuance pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.13.

 

2.6.          Swing Line Commitment. (a) Subject
to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender agrees that, during
the US Revolving Credit Commitment Period, it will make available to the US
Borrower in the form of swing line loans funded and repayable solely in Dollars
(“Swing Line Loans”) a portion of the credit otherwise available to the
US Borrower under the US Revolving Credit Commitments; provided, that
(i) the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Loans outstanding at any time
shall not exceed the Swing Line Commitment then in effect (notwithstanding that
the Swing Line Loans outstanding at any time, when aggregated with the Swing Line
Lender’s other outstanding US Revolving Credit Loans hereunder, may exceed the
Swing Line Commitment then in effect or such Swing Line Lender’s US Revolving
Credit Commitment then in effect) and (ii) the US Borrower shall not request,
and the Swing Line Lender shall not make, any Swing Line Loan if, after giving
effect to the making of such Swing Line Loan, the aggregate amount of the
Available US Revolving Credit Commitments would be less than zero. During the
US Revolving Credit Commitment Period, the US Borrower may use the Swing Line
Commitment by borrowing, repaying and reborrowing, all in accordance with the
terms and conditions hereof. Swing Line Loans shall be Base Rate Loans only;

 

(b)           The US Borrower shall repay all
outstanding Swing Line Loans on the US Revolving Credit Termination Date; and

 

(c)           At any time when any Default or Event
of Default is continuing, the Swing Line Lender may suspend or terminate the
Swing Line Commitment.

 

2.7.          Procedure for Swing Line Borrowing;
Refunding of Swing Line Loans. (a) The US Borrower may borrow under the
Swing Line Commitment on any Business Day during the US Revolving Credit
Commitment Period, provided, the US Borrower shall give the Swing Line
Lender irrevocable telephonic notice confirmed promptly in writing (which
telephonic notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender not later than 1:00
P.M., New York City time, on the proposed Borrowing Date), specifying (i) the
amount to be borrowed and (ii) the requested Borrowing Date. Each borrowing
under the Swing Line Commitment shall be in an amount equal to $500,000 or a
whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Not later than 3:00 P.M., New
York City time, on the Borrowing Date specified in the

 

37

 

borrowing notice in respect
of any Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender shall make available to the
Administrative Agent at the Funding Office an amount in immediately available
funds equal to the amount of such Swing Line Loan. The Administrative Agent shall
make the proceeds of such Swing Line Loan available to the US Borrower on such
Borrowing Date in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent. The Swing
Line Lender, at any time and from time to time in its sole and absolute
discretion may, on behalf of the US Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs
the Swing Line Lender to act on its behalf), on one Business Day’s notice given
by the Swing Line Lender no later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, request
each US Revolving Credit Lender to make, and each US Revolving Credit Lender
hereby agrees to make, a US Revolving Credit Loan (which shall initially be a
Base Rate Loan), in an amount equal to such US Revolving Credit Lender’s US
Revolving Credit Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Swing Line Loans
(the “Refunded Swing Line Loans”) outstanding on the date of such
notice, to repay the Swing Line Lender. Each US Revolving Credit Lender shall
make the amount of such US Revolving Credit Loan available to the
Administrative Agent at the Funding Office in immediately available funds, not
later than 10:00 A.M., New York City time, one Business Day after the date of
such notice. The proceeds of such US Revolving Credit Loans shall be made
immediately available by the Administrative Agent to the Swing Line Lender for
application by the Swing Line Lender to the repayment of the Refunded Swing
Line Loans.

 

(b)           If prior to the time a US Revolving
Credit Loan would have otherwise been made pursuant to Section 2.7(a), one of
the events described in Section 8(f) shall have occurred and be continuing with
respect to the US Borrower, or if for any other reason, as determined by the
Swing Line Lender in its sole discretion, US Revolving Credit Loans may not be
made as contemplated by Section 2.7(a), each US Revolving Credit Lender shall,
on the date such US Revolving Credit Loan was to have been made pursuant to the
notice referred to in Section 2.7(a) (the “Refunding Date”), purchase
for cash an undivided participating interest in the then outstanding Swing Line
Loans by paying to the Swing Line Lender an amount (the “Swing Line
Participation Amount”) equal to (i) such US Revolving Credit Lender’s US
Revolving Credit Percentage times (ii) the sum of the aggregate
principal amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding which were to have been
repaid with such US Revolving Credit Loans. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes
the Swing Line Lender to charge the Borrower’s accounts with the Administrative
Agent (up to the amount available in each such account) in order to immediately
pay the amount of such Refunded Swing Line Loans to the extent amounts received
from the US Revolving Credit Lenders are not sufficient to repay in full such
Refunded Swing Line Loans.

 

(c)           Whenever, at any time after the Swing
Line Lender has received from any US Revolving Credit Lender such Lender’s
Swing Line Participation Amount, the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on
account of the Swing Line Loans, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender
its Swing Line Participation Amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of
interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s
participating interest was outstanding and funded and, in the case of principal
and interest payments, to reflect such Lender’s pro rata
portion of such payment if such payment is not sufficient to pay the principal
of and interest on all Swing Line Loans then due); provided, however,
that in the event that such payment received by the Swing Line Lender is required
to be returned, such US Revolving Credit Lender will return to the Swing Line
Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it by the Swing Line
Lender.

 

(d)           Each US Revolving Credit Lender’s
obligation to make the Loans referred to in Section 2.7(a) and to purchase participating
interests pursuant to Section 2.7(b) shall be absolute and unconditional and
shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, (i) any setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such US Revolving Credit
Lender or the US Borrower may have against the Swing Line Lender, the other
Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or
continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any
of the

 

38

 

other conditions specified
in Section 5; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or
otherwise) of the either Borrower; (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document by the either Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other
US Revolving Credit Lender; or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event
whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

 

2.8.          Repayment of Loans: Evidence of
Debt. (a) The US Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the appropriate US Revolving Credit
Lender (i) the then unpaid principal amount of each US Revolving Credit Loan of
such US Revolving Credit Lender on the US Revolving Credit Termination Date (or
on such earlier date on which the US Revolving Credit Loans become due and
payable pursuant to Section 8) and (ii) the then unpaid principal amount of
such Swing Line Loan of such Swing Line Lender on the US Revolving Credit
Termination Date (or on such earlier date on which the US Revolving Credit
Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 8). The US Borrower hereby
unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of
the appropriate Term Loan Lender the principal amount of each Term Loan of such
Term Loan Lender made to the US Borrower in installments according to the
amortization schedule set forth in Section 2.3 (or on such earlier date on
which the Term Loans become due and payable pursuant to this Agreement), and in
any event will pay all outstanding amounts on the Term Loan Maturity Date. The
Canadian Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Canadian Agent
for the account of the appropriate Canadian Revolving Credit Lender the then
unpaid principal amount of each Canadian Revolving Credit Loan of such Canadian
Revolving Credit Lender on the Canadian Revolving Credit Termination Date (or
on such earlier date on which the Canadian Revolving Credit Loans become due
and payable pursuant to Section 8). Each of the US Borrower and the Canadian
Borrower, as applicable, hereby further agree to pay interest and acceptance
fees on the unpaid principal amount of the Loans borrowed by the US Borrower or
Canadian Borrower, as applicable, from time to time outstanding from the
Closing Date until payment in full thereof at the rate per annum and on the
dates, set forth in Section 2.15.

 

(b)           Each Lender shall maintain in
accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing
indebtedness of the US Borrower, or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, to
such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time,
including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender
from time to time under this Agreement.

 

(c)           The Administrative Agent, on behalf
of the Borrowers and the Canadian Agent, shall maintain the Register pursuant
to Section 10.6(d), and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be
recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder and any Note evidencing
such Loan, the Type of such Loan and each Interest Period applicable thereto,
(ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable, or to become due
and payable from the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, to
each Lender hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the Administrative
Agent hereunder from the US Borrower or by Canadian Agent from the Canadian Borrower,
and each Lender’s share thereof. The Canadian Agent will provide the
Administrative Agent with such information relating to the Canadian Revolving
Credit Facility as may be requested by the Administrative Agent to maintain the
Register.

 

(d)           The entries made in the Register and
the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to Section 2.8(b) shall, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, be prima  facie evidence of
the existence and amounts of the obligations of the US Borrower or the Canadian
Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of
any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Agent to maintain the
Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner
affect the obligation of the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as
applicable, to repay (with applicable

 

39

 

interest) the Loans made to
the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement.

 

(e)           Each of the US Borrower and the
Canadian Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent or
the Canadian Agent by any Lender, the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as
applicable, will promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note
of the US Borrower, evidencing any Term Loans, US Revolving Credit Loans, Swing
Line Loans, or of the Canadian Borrower of any Canadian Revolving Credit Loans,
as the case may be, of such Lender, substantially in the forms of Exhibit G-l,
G-2, G-3 or G-4 respectively (a “Term Note.” “US Revolving Credit
Note.” “Swing Line Note” or “Canadian Revolving Credit Note,”
respectively), with appropriate insertions as to date and principal amount; provided,
that delivery of Notes shall not be a condition precedent to the occurrence of
the Closing Date or the making of the Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit or
to the enforceability of any Obligation on the Closing Date.

 

2.9.          Commitment Fees, etc. (a) The
US Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
US Revolving Credit Lender a commitment fee for the period from and including
the Closing Date to the last day of the US Revolving Credit Commitment Period,
computed at the Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the
Available US Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender during the period for
which payment is made, payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each
March, June, September and December commencing on the first of such dates to
occur after the date hereof and on the US Revolving Credit Termination Date
with respect to US Revolving Credit Loans and the Canadian Revolving Termination
Date with respect to Canadian Revolving Credit Loans.

 

(b)           The US Borrower agrees to pay to the
Agents the fees in the amounts and on the dates previously agreed to in writing
by the US Borrower and the Agents.

 

2.10.        Termination or Reduction of Revolving
Credit Commitments. Each of the US Borrower and the Canadian Borrower, as
applicable, shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’
notice to the Administrative Agent with respect to the US Revolving Credit Commitments
and the Canadian Agent with respect to the Canadian Revolving Credit
Commitments, to terminate the US Revolving Credit Commitments or the Canadian
Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, or, from time to time, to reduce
the aggregate amount of the US Revolving Credit Commitments or the Canadian
Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable; provided, that no such termination
or reduction of US Revolving Credit Commitments or the Canadian Revolving
Credit Commitments shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to
any prepayments of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans made on the
effective date thereof, (i) the aggregate amount of US Revolving Extensions of
Credit would exceed the aggregate amount of US Revolving Credit Commitments or
(ii) the aggregate amount of Canadian Revolving Extensions of Credit would
exceed the aggregate amount of Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments. Any such
reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 in the case of the US
Revolving Credit Commitments, or Cdn. $100,000, in the case of the Canadian
Revolving Credit Commitments, or a whole multiple thereof, and shall reduce permanently
the applicable US Revolving Credit Commitments or the Canadian Revolving Credit
Commitments, as applicable, then in effect.

 

2.11.        Optional Prepayments. (a) Each of
the Borrowers may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans, in whole
or in part, without premium or penalty (except as otherwise provided herein),
upon irrevocable notice delivered to the Administrative Agent (and, with
respect to the Canadian Revolving Credit Loans, the Canadian Agent) no later
than three Business Days prior thereto in the case of Eurodollar Loans or
Banker’s Acceptances and no later than one Business Day prior thereto in the
case

 

40

 

of Base Rate Loans or
Canadian Prime Rate Loans, which notice shall specify the date and amount of
such prepayment, whether such prepayment is of Term Loans, US Revolving Credit
Loans or Canadian Revolving Credit Loans, and whether such prepayment is of
Eurodollar Loans, Banker’s Acceptances, Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate
Loans; provided, that (i) if a Eurodollar Loan is prepaid on any day
other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the US Borrower
shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.21, (ii) prepayments of
Banker’s Acceptances shall be made in accordance with Section 2.5(d) and (iii)
no prior notice is required for the prepayment of Swing Line Loans. Upon
receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent (or the Canadian Agent, if
applicable) shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any such
notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable
on the date specified therein, together with (except in the case of (1)
Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans, (2) Swing Line Loans and (3)
Canadian Prime Rate Loans) accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid.
Partial prepayments of Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans shall be in an
aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or Cdn. $1,000,000, as applicable, or
a whole multiple thereof. Partial prepayments of Swing Line Loans shall be in
an aggregate principal amount of $100,000 or a whole multiple thereof.

 

(b)           In the event that, prior to the first
anniversary of the Closing Date, any Term Loan Lender receives a Repricing
Prepayment (as defined below), then, at the time thereof, the US Borrower shall
pay to such Lender a prepayment premium equal to 1.00% (the “Prepayment Fee”)
of the amount of such Repricing Prepayment. As used herein, with respect to any
Term Loan Lender, a “Repricing Prepayment” is the amount of principal of
the Term Loans of such Lender that is either (a) prepaid by the US Borrower
pursuant to Section 2.1 l(a) substantially concurrently with the incurrence by
any Parent or any of its Subsidiaries of new term loans that have interest rate
margins lower than, the Applicable Margin then in effect for the Term Loans so
prepaid or (b) received by such Lender as a result of the mandatory assignment
of such Term Loans in the circumstances described in Section 2.24(c) following
the failure of such Lender to consent to an amendment of this Agreement that
would have the effect of reducing the Applicable Margin with respect to such
Term Loans; provided however that such Repricing Prepayment shall not
include any prepayment made in connection with (i) the repayment of all of
principal and interest due on Loans under this Agreement, (ii) the termination
of all of the Revolving Credit Commitments under this Agreement and (iii) the
payment of all other obligations due and owing under the Loan Documents.

 

2.12.        Mandatory Prepayments.

 

(a)           Unless the Required Prepayment
Lenders shall otherwise agree, if any Capital Stock shall be issued and sold in
an IPO, then on the date of such issuance and sale, the Term Loans shall be
prepaid on a pro rata basis (and after the Term Loans are prepaid the
outstanding Revolving Extensions of Credit shall be prepaid or cash
collateralized and the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be permanently
reduced, in each case, on a pro rata basis) by an amount equal to 50% of the
aggregate cash proceeds of such issuance and sale, net of underwriting
discounts and offering costs paid by the issuer, except for any cash proceeds
received as a result of the exercise of an over-allotment option by the
underwriters. The provisions of this Section do not constitute a consent to the
issuance of any equity securities by any entity whose equity securities are
pledged pursuant to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.

 

(b)           Unless the Required Prepayment Lenders
shall otherwise agree, if any Indebtedness shall be incurred by the US Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries (excluding any Indebtedness incurred in accordance
with Section 7.2), then no later than the first Business Day following the date
of such issuance or incurrence, the Term Loans shall be prepaid on a pro rata
basis (and after the Term Loans are prepaid the outstanding Revolving
Extensions of Credit shall be prepaid or cash collateralized

 

41

 

and
the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be permanently reduced, in each case, on
a pro rata basis) by an amount equal to 100% of the amount of the Net Cash
Proceeds of such issuance or incurrence. The provisions of this Section do not
constitute a consent to the incurrence of any indebtedness by the Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries not permitted by Section 7.2.

 

(c)           Unless the Required Prepayment
Lenders shall otherwise agree, if on any date the US Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or Recovery
Event, then unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof,
the Term Loans shall be prepaid promptly, and in any event not later than seven
days, after the date of receipt by the US Borrower or such Subsidiary of such
Net Cash Proceeds, on a pro rata basis (and after the Term Loans are prepaid
the outstanding Revolving Extensions of Credit shall be prepaid or cash
collateralized and the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be permanently
reduced, in each case, on a pro rata basis) by an amount equal to the amount of
such Net Cash Proceeds; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing,
on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date the Term Loans shall be prepaid by an
amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant
Reinvestment Event. The provisions of this Section do not constitute a consent
to the consummation of any Disposition not permitted by Section 7.5.

 

(d)           Unless the Required Prepayment
Lenders shall otherwise agree, if, for any fiscal year of the US Borrower
commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007, there shall be Excess
Cash Flow, then, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, the Term
Loans shall be prepaid on a pro rata basis (and after the Term Loans are
prepaid the outstanding Revolving Extensions of Credit shall be prepaid or cash
collateralized and the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be permanently
reduced, in each case, on a pro rata basis) by an amount equal to the ECF
Percentage of such Excess Cash Flow. Each such prepayment shall be made on a
date (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”) no later than ten days
after the earlier of (i) the date on which the financial statements of the US
Borrower referred to in Section 6.1 (a), for the fiscal year with respect to
which such prepayment is made, are required to be delivered to the Lenders and
(ii) the date such financial statements are actually delivered.

 

(e)           If at any time, the aggregate amount
of outstanding Canadian Revolving Credit Loans and Canadian L/C Obligations
(converted to Dollars at the Exchange Rate) exceeds the then amount of the
Canadian Revolving Credit Commitment, then the Canadian Borrower will repay
such excess forthwith without notice or demand. If at any time, the aggregate
outstanding amount of US Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Line Loans and US L/C
Obligations plus Canadian Revolving Credit Loans and Canadian L/C Obligations
(converted to Dollars at the Exchange Rate) exceeds the then amount of the
Total US Revolving Credit Commitments, then without notice or demand the US
Borrower and Canadian Borrower will prepay their respective outstanding amounts
in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

 

2.13.        Conversion and Continuation Options.
(a) The US Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to
Base Rate Loans by giving the Administrative Agent, at least one Business Day’s
prior irrevocable notice of such election and the Canadian Borrower may elect
from time to time to convert Banker’s Acceptances upon their maturity to
Canadian Prime Rate Loans by giving the Canadian Agent, at least one Business
Day’s prior irrevocable notice of such election; provided, that any such
conversion of Eurodollar Loans may be made only on the last day of an Interest
Period with respect thereto. The US Borrower may elect from time to time to
convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent,
at least three Business Days prior irrevocable notice of such election (which
notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor) and
the Canadian Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Canadian Prime
Rate Loans to Banker’s

 

42

 

Acceptances,
provided, that no Base Rate Loan under a particular Facility may be
converted into a Eurodollar Loan and no Canadian Prime Rate Loan may be
converted into a Banker’s Acceptance (i) when any Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has, or the Majority Facility
Lenders in respect of such Facility have, determined in its or their sole
discretion not to permit such conversions or (ii) after the date that is one month
prior to the final scheduled termination or maturity date of such Facility and provided,
further that in the case of any conversion of Canadian Prime Rate Loans to
Banker’s Acceptances, the Canadian Borrower shall pay to the Canadian Agent for
the account of the Canadian Revolving Credit Lender such additional amounts, if
any, as shall be necessary to effect the payment in full of the respective
Canadian Prime Rate Loans being converted on such date. Upon receipt of any
such notice the Administrative Agent, or the Canadian Agent, as applicable,
shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

 

(b)           The US Borrower may elect to continue
any Eurodollar Loan as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest
Period with respect thereto and the Canadian Borrower may elect to continue
Banker’s Acceptance as such upon its maturity by giving at least three Business
Day’s prior irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, and with respect to
Canadian Revolving Credit Loans, the Canadian Agent, in accordance with the
applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1 in
respect of Eurodollar Loans, of the length of the next Interest Period to be
applicable to such Loans, provided, that in the case of any continuation
of any Banker’s Acceptance, the Canadian Borrower shall pay to the Canadian
Agent for the account of the respective Canadian Revolving Credit Lenders such
additional amounts, if any, as shall be necessary to effect the payment in full
of the respective Banker’s Acceptances maturing on such date; provided,
that no Eurodollar Loan or Banker’s Acceptance under a particular Facility may
be continued as such (i) when any Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and the Administrative Agent has or with respect to the Canadian
Revolving Credit Facility, the Canadian Agent has or the Majority Facility
Lenders in respect of such Facility have, determined in its or their sole
discretion not to permit such continuations or (ii) after the date that is one
month prior to the final scheduled termination or maturity date of such
Facility, and provided, further, that if the US Borrower or
Canadian Borrower, as applicable, shall fail to give any required notice as
described above in this Section 2-13(b) (x) such Eurodollar Loans or Banker’s
Acceptance, as applicable, shall be continued and for the same Interest Period
as the then expiring Interest Period as of the last day of such then expiring
Interest Period, except that if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to
the first proviso in this Section 2.13(b), such Loans shall be repaid or
converted automatically to Base Rate Loans and (y) the face amount of such
Banker’s Acceptance shall be repaid or automatically converted to Canadian
Prime Rate Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period and
interest shall accrue on the amount thereof from such date at the rate then
applicable to Canadian Prime Rate Loans. Upon receipt of any such notice, the
Administrative Agent, or the Canadian Agent, as applicable, shall promptly
notify each relevant Lender thereof.

 

2.14.        Minimum Amounts and Maximum Number of
Eurodollar Tranches. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, all borrowings, conversions, continuations and optional prepayments
of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such
amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (i) after giving effect
thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each
Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of
$1,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) no more than ten Eurodollar Tranches
shall be outstanding at any one time.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions, continuations and
optional prepayments of Banker’s Acceptances and all selections of Interest
Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that
after giving effect

 

43

 

thereto,
the aggregate principal amount of any Banker’s Acceptance shall be equal to
Cdn. $500,000 or a whole multiple of Cdn. $100,000 in excess thereof.

 

2.15.        Interest Rates and Payment Dates.
(a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest
Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate
determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin in effect for such
day.

 

(b)           Each Base Rate Loan shall bear
interest for each day on which it is outstanding at a rate per annum equal to
the Base Rate in effect for such day plus the Applicable Margin in effect for
such day.

 

(c)           Each Canadian Prime Rate Loan shall
bear interest for each day on which it is outstanding at a rate per annum equal
to the Canadian Prime Rate in effect for such day plus the Applicable Margin in
effect for such day.

 

(d)           Upon acceptance of a Banker’s
Acceptance by a Lender, the Canadian Borrower shall pay to the Canadian Agent
on behalf of such Lender a fee (the “Acceptance Fee”) calculated on the
face amount of the Banker’s Acceptances at a rate per annum equal to the
Applicable Margin in effect for such day on the basis of the number of days in
the Interest Period for the Banker’s Acceptance and a year of 365 days.

 

(e)           (i) If all or a portion of the principal
amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due
(whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), then such
overdue amount (to the extent legally permitted) shall bear interest at a rate
per annum that is equal to (x) in the case of the Loans (other than Banker’s
Acceptances), the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to
the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2.00% per annum, (y) (1) in the
case of the US Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations, the rate applicable to
Base Rate Loans under the US Revolving Credit Facility plus 2.00% per annum or
(2) in the case of the Canadian Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations and
Banker’s Acceptances, the rate applicable to Canadian Prime Rate Loans under
the Canadian Revolving Credit Facility plus 2.00% per annum and (ii) if all or
a portion of any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or
any commitment fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due

applicable to Base Rate Loans under the relevant Facility plus 2.00% per annum
for interest due in Dollars and (ii) the Canadian Prime Rate plus 2.00% per
annum for interest due in Canadian Dollars (or, in the case of any such other

to Base Rate Loans under the US Revolving Credit Facility plus 2.00% per annum
for amounts due in Dollars and the Canadian Prime Rate plus 2,00% per annum for
amounts due in Canadian Dollars), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and
(ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full
(after as well as before judgment).

 

(f)            Interest shall be payable in arrears
on each Interest Payment Date, provided, that interest accruing pursuant
to Section 2.15(e) shall be payable from time to time on demand.

 

(g)           If any provision of this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents would obligate the Canadian Borrower to make
any payment of interest with respect to the Canadian Obligations or other
amount payable to the Canadian Agent or any Lender in an amount or calculated
at a rate which would be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by the
Canadian Agent or such Lender of interest with respect to the Canadian
Obligations at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal
Code (Canada)) then, notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rates shall
be deemed to

 

44

 

have
been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of
interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result
in a receipt by the Canadian Agent or such Lender of interest with respect to
the Canadian Obligations at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to
the extent necessary, as follows: (1) first, by reducing the amount or rates of
interest required to be paid to the Canadian Agent or the affected Lender under
this Section 2.15(g); and (2) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions,
premiums and other amounts required to be paid to the Canadian Agent or the
affected Lender which would constitute interest with respect to the Canadian
Obligations for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments
contemplated thereby, if the Canadian Agent or any Lender shall have received
an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by that section of the Criminal
Code (Canada), then the Canadian Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in
writing to the Canadian Agent or the affected Lender, to obtain reimbursement
from the Canadian Agent or such Lender in an amount equal to such excess, and
pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable
by the Canadian Agent or such Lender to the Canadian Borrower. Any amount or
rate of interest under fee Canadian Obligations referred to in this Section
2.15(g) shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial
practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term
that any Canadian Revolving Credit Loans remain outstanding on the assumption that
any charges, fees or expenses that fall within the meaning of “interest” (as
defined in the Criminal Code (Canada)) shall, if they relate to a specific
period of time, be pro-rated over that period of time and otherwise be
pro-rated over the period from the Closing Date to the Canadian Revolving
Credit Termination Date and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a
Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Canadian Agent
shall be conclusive for the purposes of such determination.

 

(h)           For purposes of disclosure pursuant
to the Interest Act (Canada), the annual rates of interest or fees to which the
rates of interest or fees provided in this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents (and stated herein or therein, as applicable, to be computed on the
basis of a 360 or 365 day year or any other period of time less than a calendar
year) are equivalent to the rates so determined multiplied by the actual number
of days in the applicable calendar year and divided by 360, 365 or such other period
of time, respectively.

 

2.16.        Computation of Interest and Fees.
(a) Interest, fees, commissions payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on
the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with
respect to (i) Base Rate Loans on which interest is calculated on the basis of
the Prime Rate and (ii) Canadian Prime Rate Loans on which interest is
calculated on the basis of the Canadian Prime Rate, the interest thereon shall
be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for
the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable
notify the US Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a
Eurodollar Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change
in the Canadian Prime Rate, the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Reserve
Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on
which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent, or with respect
to Canadian Revolving Credit Loans, the Canadian Agent, shall as soon as
practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date
and the amount of each such change in interest rate.

 

(b)           Each determination of an interest
rate by the Administrative Agent, or with respect to Canadian Revolving Credit
Loans, the Canadian Agent, pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be
conclusive and binding on the US Borrower, the Canadian Borrower and the
Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent, or the
Canadian Agent, as applicable, shall, at the request of the applicable
Borrower, deliver to such Borrower, a statement showing the quotations used by
the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate or Acceptance Fee
pursuant to Section 2.15.

 

45

 

2.17.        Inability to Determine Interest Rate.  If
prior to the first day of any Interest Period:

 

(a)           (i) the Administrative Agent shall have
determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the US
Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market,
adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate
for such Interest Period, or

 

(ii) Administrative
Agent shall have received notice from the Majority Facility Lenders in respect
of the relevant Facility that the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be
determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the
cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or
maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period,

 

the Administrative Agent
shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the US Borrower, and the
relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (x)
any Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility requested to be made on the
first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Base Rate Loans, (y) any
Loans under the relevant Facility that were to have been converted on the first
day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as Base Rate
Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility
shall be converted, on the last day of the then current Interest Period with
respect thereto, to Base Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by
the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans under the relevant
Facility shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the US Borrower have the
right to convert Loans under the relevant Facility to Eurodollar Loans; or

 

(b)           any Canadian Revolving Credit Lender
determines in good faith, which determination shall be final, conclusive and
binding upon the Canadian Borrower, and notifies the Canadian Borrower that, by
reason of circumstances affecting the money market there is no market for
Banker’s Acceptances or the demand for Banker’s Acceptances is insufficient to
allow the sale or trading of the Banker’s Acceptances created hereunder, then:

 

(i)            the right of the Canadian Borrower to request
a Canadian Revolving Credit Loan by means of Banker’s Acceptances shall be
suspended until the Canadian Agent determines that the circumstances causing
such suspension no longer exist and the Canadian Agent so notifies the Canadian
Borrower; and

 

(ii)           any notice for the issuance of a Banker’s Acceptance which is outstanding
shall be cancelled and the request for such issuance shall be deemed to be a
request for a Canadian Prime Rate Loan in the principal amount of the requested
Banker’s Acceptance;

 

and such Canadian Revolving
Credit Lender shall promptly notify the Canadian Borrower of the suspension of
the Canadian Borrower’s right to request a Canadian Revolving Credit Loan by
way of a Banker’s Acceptance and of the termination of any such suspension.

 

2.18.        Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Each borrowing by the US Borrower
or the Canadian Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, commitment fee or Letter
of Credit fee, and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders, shall be
made pro  rata according to the respective Term Loan Percentages,
US Revolving Credit Percentages or Canadian Revolving Credit Percentages, as
the case may be, of the relevant Lenders; provided, that for purposes of
determining the ratable shares of the US Revolving Credit Lenders in any
funding of US Revolving Credit Loans or participations in Swing Line Loans or
US L/C Obligations, the amount of the US Revolving Credit Commitment of any US
Revolving Credit Lender that is also a Canadian Revolving Credit Lender shall
be reduced by the amount

 

46

 

of its Canadian Revolving
Extensions of Credit then outstanding, converted to Dollars at the Exchange
Rate. Each payment of interest in respect of the Loans and each payment in
respect of fees payable hereunder shall be applied to the amounts of such
obligations owing to the Lenders pro  rata according to the
respective amounts then due and owing to the Lenders.

 

(b)           Each payment (including each prepayment) by
the US Borrower on account of principal of the Term Loans outstanding under the
Term Loan Facility shall be allocated among the Term Loan Lenders holding such
Term Loans pro  rata based on the principal amount of such Term
Loans held by such Term Loan Lenders, and each prepayment shall, at the US
Borrower’s option, be applied to the installments of such Term Loans either (i) pro
rata based on the remaining outstanding principal amount of such
installments or (ii) first, in direct order, to the next four succeeding
installments of such Term Loans and then pro  rata to the
remaining outstanding principal amount of such installments. Amounts prepaid on
account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

 

(c)           Each payment (including each prepayment) of
the US Revolving Credit Loans shall be allocated among the US Revolving Credit
Lenders pro  rata according to the respective outstanding
principal amounts of the US Revolving Credit Loans then held by such US
Revolving Credit Lenders. Each payment (including each prepayment) of the
Canadian Revolving Credit Loans shall be allocated among the Canadian Revolving
Credit Lenders pro  rata according to the respective outstanding
principal amounts of the Canadian Revolving Credit Loans then held by such
Canadian Revolving Credit Lenders. Each payment in respect of Reimbursement
Obligations in respect of any Letter of Credit shall be made to the Issuing
Lender that issued such Letters of Credit.

 

(d)           The application of any payment of Loans under
any Facility (including optional and mandatory prepayments) shall be made, first,
to Base Rate Loans (and Canadian Prime Rate Loans, in the case of the Canadian
Borrower), under such Facility and, second, to Eurodollar Loans (and
Banker’s Acceptances, in the case of the Canadian Borrower) under such
Facility. Each payment of the Loans (except in the case of Revolving Credit
Loans that are Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans and Swing Line
Loans) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such payment on
the amount paid.

 

(e)           All payments (including prepayments) to be made
by the US Borrower and the Canadian Borrower hereunder, whether on account of
principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or
counterclaim. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the US
Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or
otherwise shall be made prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the due
date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the relevant
Lenders, at the Payment Office, in Dollars and in immediately available funds.
Any payment made by a Borrower after 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on any
Business Day shall be deemed to have been made on the next following Business
Day.  The Administrative Agent shall
distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as
received. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Canadian
Borrower hereunder with respect to the Canadian Revolving Credit Facility,
whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made prior
to 12:00 Noon, Toronto time, on the due date thereof to the Canadian Agent, for
the account of the relevant Lenders, at the Canadian Payment Office, in
Canadian Dollars or Dollars (based on the currency applicable to such amount)
and in immediately available funds. Any payment made by the Canadian Borrower
after 12:00 Noon, Toronto time, on any Business Day shall be deemed to have
been made on the next following Business Day. 
The Canadian Agent shall distribute such payments to the Canadian
Revolving Credit Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If
any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurodollar Loans and Banker’s
Acceptances) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such
payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment
on a

 

47

 

Eurodollar Loan or Banker’s
Acceptance becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the
maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless
the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another
calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately
preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal
pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at
the then applicable rate during such extension.

 

(f)            Unless the Administrative Agent or the
Canadian Agent, as applicable, shall have been notified in writing by any
Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that
would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative
Agent or the Canadian Agent, as applicable, such Agent may assume that such
Lender is making such amount available to such Agent, and such Agent may, in
reliance upon such assumption, make available to the US Borrower or the
Canadian Borrower, as applicable, a corresponding amount. If such amount is not
made available to the Administrative Agent, or the Canadian Agent, as
applicable, by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender
shall pay to the Administrative Agent, or the Canadian Agent, as applicable, on
demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the daily average
Federal Funds Effective Rate for amounts in Dollars and the interbank offered
rate quoted by the Canadian Agent for amounts denominated in Canadian Dollars
for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to
such Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Agent, as
applicable, submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under
this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such
Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the applicable Agent by
such Lender within three Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the
Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with
interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans under the
relevant Facility, on demand, from the US Borrower or, the Canadian Agent shall
also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per
annum applicable to Canadian Prime Rate Loans under the relevant Facility, on
demand, from the Canadian Borrower.

 

(g)           Unless the Administrative Agent, or the
Canadian Agent, as applicable, shall have been notified in writing by the US
Borrower, or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, prior to the date of any
payment due to be made by such Borrower hereunder that such Borrower will not
make such payment to the applicable Agent, the applicable Agent may assume that
such Borrower, is making such payment, and the applicable Agent may, but shall
not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the
applicable Lenders their respective pro  rata shares of a
corresponding amount.  If such payment is
not made to the applicable Agent by the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower,
as applicable, within three Business Days after such due date, the applicable
Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any
amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount
with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal
Funds Effective Rate for amounts in Dollars and the interbank offered rate
quoted by the Canadian Agent for amounts in Canadian Dollars. Nothing herein
shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Canadian
Agent or any Lender against the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower.

 

2.19.        Requirements of Law. (a) If the adoption of or any change
in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or
compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having
the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made
subsequent to the date hereof:

 

(i)            shall subject any Lender to any tax of any
kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any
Application or any Eurodollar Loan made by it, or

 

48

 

change
the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for
Non-Excluded Taxes covered by Section 2.20 and changes in the rate of tax
on the overall net income of such Lender);

 

(ii)           shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit,
compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or
other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions
of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender
that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate
hereunder; or

 

(iii)          shall impose on such Lender any other condition;

 

and the result of any of the
foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount which such
Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or
maintaining Eurodollar Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit,
or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any
such case, the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, shall
promptly pay such Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to
compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If
any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this
Section, it shall promptly notify the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as
applicable, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, or the Canadian Agent, as
applicable, of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.

 

(b)           If any Lender shall have determined that the
adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy
or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or
any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding
capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental
Authority made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing
the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a
consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter
of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could
have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into
consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to
capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from
time to time, after submission by such Lender to the US Borrower or the
Canadian Borrower, as applicable, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, or
the Canadian Agent, as applicable, of a written request therefor, the US
Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, shall pay to such Lender such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation
for such reduction.

 

(c)           A certificate as to any additional amounts
payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender to the US
Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable (with a copy to the applicable
Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.  The obligations of the US Borrower and the
Canadian Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination
of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable
hereunder. No Lender shall be entitled to request any payment pursuant to this Section 2.19
unless such Lender is generally demanding payments under comparable provisions
of its agreements with similarly situated borrowers.  In addition, neither the US Borrower nor the
Canadian Borrower shall be required to compensate any Lender for any such
increased costs or reduced return incurred by such Lender more than 6 months
prior to such Lender’s written request to such Borrower as required above for
such compensation unless such increased costs or reduced return incurred by
such Lender is incurred retroactively, in which event such 6 month period shall
be extended by the period of retroactivity.

 

49

 

2.20.        Taxes. (a) All payments made by or on behalf of the US Borrower and the
Canadian Borrower under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and
without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future
income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees,
deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected,
withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding net income taxes
and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on the
Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent or any Lender as a result of a present
or former connection between the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent or
such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such
tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other
than any such connection arising solely from the Administrative Agent’s, the
Canadian Agent’s or such Lender’s having executed, delivered or performed its
obligations or received a payment
under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document). If any such
non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or
withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) or any Other Taxes are required to
be withheld from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian
Agent or any Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to the Administrative
Agent, the Canadian Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent
necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent or such
Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes) interest or
any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts
specified in this Agreement; provided, however, that neither the
US Borrower nor the Canadian Borrower shall be required to increase any such
amounts payable to any Lender with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes (i) that
are attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of Section 2.20(d) or
Section 2.20(e), (ii) in the case of any Non-U.S. Lender, that are
United States of America withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to the
Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent or such Lender at the time the
Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent or such Lender becomes a party to this
Agreement, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent’s, the Canadian
Agent’s or such Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of
assignment, to receive additional amounts from the applicable Borrower with
respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes pursuant to this Section 2.20(a) or
(iii) in the case of any Canadian Revolving Credit Lender that is a
Non-Canadian Lender, that are Canadian withholding taxes imposed on amounts
payable to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent or such Canadian
Revolving Credit Lender at the time the Administrative Agent, the Canadian
Agent or such Canadian Revolving Credit Lender becomes a party to this
Agreement, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent’s, the Canadian
Agent’s or such Canadian Revolving Credit Lender’s assignor (if any) was
entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional amounts from the
applicable Borrower with respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes pursuant to this Section 2.20(a).
The applicable Borrower and any applicable Guarantor shall make any required
withholding and pay the full amount withheld to the relevant tax authority or
other Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law.

 

(b)           In addition, the US Borrower and the Canadian
Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with applicable law.

 

(c)           Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other
Taxes are payable by the US Borrower and the Canadian Borrower, as promptly as
possible thereafter the relevant Borrower shall send to the Administrative
Agent, or the Canadian Agent, as applicable, for the account of the relevant
Agent or Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official
receipt received by the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower showing payment
thereof. If the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower fails to pay any
Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority
or fails to remit to the applicable Agent the required receipts or other required
documentary evidence, the US Borrower and the Canadian Borrower shall indemnify
the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent and the Lenders for any
incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by any such
Agent

 

50

 

or any Lender as a result of
any such failure. The agreements in this Section shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other
amounts payable hereunder.

 

(d)           Each Lender (or Transferee) making,
participating in, or receiving an assignment with respect to a Loan to the US
Borrower, that is not a citizen or resident of the United States of America, a
corporation, partnership or other entity created or organized in or under the
laws of the United States of America (or any jurisdiction thereof), or any
estate or trust that is subject to federal income taxation regardless of the
source of its income (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the US
Borrower and the Administrative Agent two copies of either U.S. Internal
Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8ECI and/or Form W-8IMY, or,
in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal
withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with
respect to payments of “portfolio interest” a statement substantially in the
form of Exhibit H to the effect that such Lender is eligible for a
complete exemption from withholding of U.S. taxes under Section 871(h) or
881(c) of the Code and a Form W-8BEN and/or Form W-8IMY, or any
subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto properly completed and duly
executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced
rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by the Borrower under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by
each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement
(or, in the case of a Participant, on or before the date such Participant
purchases the related participation). In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall
deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form
previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall
promptly notify the US Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time it determines
that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered
certificate to the US Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by
the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other
provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver
any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally
able to deliver. If any Non-U.S. Lender provides a Form W-8IMY, such
Non-U.S. lender must also attach the additional documentation that must be
transmitted with the Form W-8IMY, including the appropriate forms
described in this Section.

 

(e)           Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption
from or reduction of a non-U.S. withholding tax with respect to payments under
this Agreement shall deliver to the US Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the Canadian Agent, as applicable, at the time or
times prescribed by applicable law and reasonably requested in writing by the
relevant Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation
prescribed by Requirements of Law or as may be required by the applicable Agent
as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced
rate; provided that such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute
and deliver such documentation and in such Lender’s reasonable judgment such
completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice the legal
position of such Lender.

 

(f)            If a Lender receives a refund in respect of
any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by
the Borrower and/or the Canadian Borrower or with respect to which the US
Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, has paid additional amounts
pursuant to this Section 2.20, it shall, within 180 days from the date of
such receipt, pay over the amount of such refund (but only to the extent of
indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the US Borrower or the
Canadian Borrower under this Section 2.20 with respect to the Non-Excluded
Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund) to the US Borrower or the
Canadian Borrower, net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender
(including any taxes imposed with respect to such refund) as determined by such
Lender in good faith and in its sole discretion, and without interest (other
than interest paid by the relevant taxation authority with respect to such
refund); provided, however, that the US Borrower or the Canadian
Borrower, as applicable, upon the request of such Lender, agrees to

 

51

 

repay as soon as reasonably
practicable the amount paid over to the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower
(plus applicable interest imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to
such Lender in the event such Lender is required to repay such refund to such
Governmental Authority.

 

(g)           Each Lender (other than a Lender that is only
a Canadian Revolving Credit Lender) that is a “United States person” within the
meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the US
Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on or before the date such Lender
becomes a party to this Agreement (and promptly from time to time thereafter if
any form previously delivered becomes inaccurate or upon the request of the US Borrower
or Administrative Agent), two copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9
or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service. If
any such Lender fails to deliver Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any
subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto) as required herein, or fails
to notify the US Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly at any time it
determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously
delivered form, then the US Borrower may withhold from any payment to such
Lender the applicable United States federal backup withholding tax imposed by
the Code and remit such amount to the relevant tax authority or other
Governmental Authority in accordance with the applicable Requirements of Law, without
reduction, and such Lender shall not be entitled to any additional amounts
under this Section 2.20 with respect to Non-Excluded Taxes imposed by the
United States by reason of such failure; provided however that a Lender
that may properly be treated as an “exempt recipient” within the meaning of
Treasury regulations section 1.6049-4(c) (without regard to the last
sentence of section 1.6049-4(c)(l)(i)), based on the indicators in such
section, shall not be required to provide such Form W-9.

 

2.21.        Indemnity.  The US Borrower agrees to
indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss or
expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default
by the US Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of
Eurodollar Loans after the US Borrower, has given a notice requesting the same
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the
Canadian Borrower in proceeding with the issuance of Banker’s Acceptances (or
the Discount Notes in lieu thereof) after delivery of notice thereof pursuant
to Section 2.5(b), (c) default by the US Borrower or the Canadian
Borrower in making any prepayment after the US Borrower, or the Canadian
Borrower, as applicable, has given a notice thereof in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement or (d) the making of a prepayment or
conversion of Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest
Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal
to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have
accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued,
for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow,
convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of
a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have
commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of
interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable
Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest
(as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such
Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period
with leading banks in the interbank Eurodollar market. A certificate as to any
amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted to the US Borrower by
any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant
shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans
and all other amounts payable hereunder.

 

2.22.        Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any
change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application
thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar
Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, then such Lender shall be an “Affected
Lender” and such Lender shall on such day give notice (by telefacsimile or by
telephone confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent of such
determination (which notice

 

52

 

Administrative Agent shall
promptly transmit to each other Lender). Thereafter (a) the commitment of
such Lender hereunder to make Eurodollar Loans, continue Eurodollar Loans as
such and convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall forthwith be
suspended until such notice shall be withdrawn by the Affected Lender or (b) to
the extent such determination by the Affected Lender relates to Eurodollar
Loans requested through a Borrowing Notice or notice of conversion, such Lender
shall make such Loan as a Base Rate Loan on the respective last days of the
then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier
period as required by law. If any such conversion of a Eurodollar Loan occurs
on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with
respect thereto, the US Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any,
as may be required pursuant to Section 2.21.

 

2.23.        Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the
occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.19, 2.20(a) or
2.22 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the US Borrower or
the Canadian Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy
considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any
Loans affected by such event or take such other measures as such Lender may
deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances which would cause
such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional
amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to
Section 2.19, 2.20(a) or 2.21 would be reduced; provided, that
such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender,
cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no material economic,
legal or regulatory disadvantage and provided, that nothing in this Section shall
affect or postpone any of the obligations of the US Borrower or the Canadian
Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, 2.20(a) or
2.22.

 

2.24.        Removal or Replacement of a Lender. Anything contained herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, in the event that:  (a) (i) any
Lender (an “Increased-Cost Lender”) shall give notice to the US Borrower
that such Lender is an Affected Lender or that such Lender is entitled to
receive payments under Section 2.19 or 2.20(a), (ii) the
circumstances which have caused such Lender to be an Affected Lender or which
entitle such Lender to receive such payments shall remain in effect, and (iii) such
Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five Business Days after the
US Borrower’s request for such withdrawal; or (b) (i) any Lender shall
become a Defaulting Lender, and (ii) such Defaulting Lender shall fail to
cure the default as a result of which it has become a Defaulting Lender within
five Business Days after the US Borrower’s request that it cure such default;
or (c) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification,
termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as
contemplated by Section 10.1, the consent of Required Lenders 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 such Increased-Cost Lender, Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting
Lender (the “Terminated Lender”), the Borrower may, by giving written notice
to Administrative 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 its outstanding Loans and its Revolving Credit
Commitments, if any, in full to one or more eligible assignees under Section 10.6
(each a “Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6
and Terminated Lender shall pay any fees payable thereunder in connection with
such assignment; provided, that (1) on the date of such assignment,
the Replacement Lender shall pay to Terminated Lender an amount equal to the
sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest
on, all outstanding Loans of the Terminated Lender, together with, in the case
of any assignment pursuant to Section 2.24(c), the Prepayment Fee, (B) an
amount equal to all unreimbursed drawings of Letters of Credit that have been
funded by such Terminated Lender, together with all then unpaid interest with
respect thereto at such time and (C) an amount equal to all accrued, but
theretofore unpaid fees owing to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.9;
(2) on the date of such assignment, the US Borrower and/or the Canadian
Borrower, as applicable, shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated
Lender

 

53

 

pursuant to Section 2.19,
2.20 or 2.22; and (3) in the event such Terminated Lender is a
Non-Consenting Lender, 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; provided, that the US Borrower may not make
such election with respect to any Terminated Lender that is also an Issuing
Lender unless, prior to or simultaneously with the effectiveness of such
election, the US Borrower shall have caused each outstanding Letter of Credit
issued thereby to be cancelled or to be secured by cash collateral or a
back-to-back-to-back letter of credit in an amount equal to the aggregate undrawn
and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit issued by the Terminated Lender.
Upon the prepayment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Lender and the
termination of such Terminated Lender’s Commitments, such Terminated Lender
shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided,
that any rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall
survive as to such Terminated Lender.

 

SECTION 3. LETTERS OF CREDIT

 

3.1.          L/C Commitment. 
(a)  Subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, each US Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the
other US Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), agrees to
issue letters of credit (the “US Letters of Credit”) for the account of
the US Borrower on any Business Day during the US Revolving Credit Commitment
Period in such form as may be approved from time to time by such US Issuing
Lender; provided, that no US Issuing Lender shall have any obligation to
issue any US Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the
US L/C Obligations would exceed the US L/C Commitment or (ii) the
aggregate amount of the Available US Revolving Credit Commitments would be less
than zero. Each US Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars
and (ii) expire no later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of
its date of issuance and (y) the date which is five Business Days prior to the
US Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided, that any US Letter of
Credit with a one-year term may provide for the renewal thereof for additional
one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in
clause (y) above).

 

(b)           Subject to the terms and conditions hereof,
each Canadian Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other
Canadian Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(d), agrees to
issue letters of credit (“Canadian Letters of Credit”) for the account
of the Canadian Borrower on any Business Day during the Canadian Revolving
Credit Commitment Period in such form as may be approved from time to time by
such Canadian Issuing Lender; provided, that no Canadian Issuing Lender
shall have any obligation to issue any Canadian Letter of Credit if, after
giving effect to such issuance (i) the Canadian L/C Obligations would
exceed the Canadian L/C Commitment or (ii) the aggregate amount of the
Available Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments would be less than zero.  Each Canadian Letter of Credit shall (i) be
denominated in Canadian Dollars and (ii) expire no later than the earlier
of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance and (y) the date which is
five Business Days prior to the Canadian Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided,
that any Canadian Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for the
renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend
beyond the date referred to in clause (y) above).

 

(c)           No Issuing Lender shall at any time be
obligated to issue any Letter of Credit hereunder if such issuance would
conflict with, or cause such Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to exceed
any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law.

 

3.2.          Procedure for Issuance of Letter of Credit. (a) The US Borrower may from time to
time request that a US Issuing Lender issue a US Letter of Credit by delivering
to such US Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified herein an
Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of such US Issuing Lender,
and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as such

 

54

 

US Issuing Lender may
reasonably request. Concurrently with the delivery of an Application to a US
Issuing Lender, the US Borrower shall deliver a copy thereof to the
Administrative Agent. Upon receipt of any Application, a US Issuing Lender will
process such Application and the certificates, documents and other papers and
information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its
customary procedures and shall promptly issue the US Letter of Credit requested
thereby by issuing the original of such US Letter of Credit to the beneficiary
thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by such US Issuing Lender and the US
Borrower (but in no event shall any US Issuing Lender be required to issue any
US Letter of Credit earlier than three Business Days after its receipt of the
Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other
papers and information relating thereto). Promptly after issuance by a US
Issuing Lender of a US Letter of Credit, such US Issuing Lender shall furnish a
copy of such US Letter of Credit to the US Borrower, as applicable. Each US
Issuing Lender shall promptly give notice to the Administrative Agent of the
issuance of each US Letter of Credit issued by such US Issuing Lender
(including the face amount thereof), and shall provide a copy of such US Letter
of Credit to the Administrative Agent as soon as possible after the date of
issuance.

 

(b)           The Canadian Borrower may from time to time
request that a Canadian Issuing Lender issue a Canadian Letter of Credit by
delivering to such Canadian Issuing Lender, with a copy to the Administrative
Agent and the Canadian Agent, at their addresses for notices specified herein
an Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of such Canadian Issuing
Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information
as such Canadian Issuing Lender may reasonably request. Upon receipt of any
such Application, a Canadian Issuing Lender will process such Application and
the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in
connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall
promptly issue the Canadian Letter of Credit requested thereby by issuing the
original of such Canadian Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as
otherwise may be agreed to by such Canadian Issuing Lender and the Canadian
Borrower (but in no event shall any Canadian Issuing Lender be required to
issue any Letter of Credit earlier than three Business Days after its receipt
of the Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and
other papers and information relating thereto). Promptly after issuance by a
Canadian Issuing Lender of a Canadian Letter of Credit, such Canadian Issuing
Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Canadian Borrower,
the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Agent. Each Canadian Issuing Lender
shall promptly give notice to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Agent
of the issuance of each Canadian Letter of Credit issued by such Canadian
Issuing Lender (including the amount thereof).

 

3.3.          Fees and Other Charges. (a) (i) The US Borrower will pay
a fee on the aggregate drawable amount of all outstanding US Letters of Credit
opened for its account at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then
in effect with respect to Eurodollar Loans under the US Revolving Credit
Facility, shared ratably among the US Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance
with their respective US Revolving Credit Percentages and (ii) the
Canadian Borrower will pay a fee on the aggregate drawable amount of all
outstanding Canadian Letters of Credit at a per annum rate equal to the
Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Banker’s Acceptances under the
Canadian Revolving Credit Facility, shared ratably among the Canadian Revolving
Credit Lenders in accordance with their respective Canadian Revolving Credit
Percentages and each such fee is payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee
Payment Date after the issuance date of such Letter of Credit. Such fees shall
be payable in the same currency as the Letter of Credit to which such fees
relate and in addition, the applicable Borrower shall pay to the relevant
Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee on the aggregate drawable
amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by it at a rate to be agreed
by the applicable Borrower and such Issuing Lender, payable quarterly in
arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date after the issuance date.

 

55

 

(b)           In addition to the foregoing fees, the US
Borrower shall pay or reimburse each US Issuing Leader and the Canadian
Borrower shall pay or reimburse each Canadian Issuing Lender for such normal
and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by such Issuing
Lender in issuing, negotiating, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise
administering any Letter of Credit.

 

3.4.          L/C Participations. (a) Each US Issuing Lender irrevocably
agrees to grant and hereby grants to each US L/C Participant, and, to induce
each US Issuing Lender to issue US Letters of Credit hereunder, each US L/C
Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and
purchases from each US Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions hereinafter
stated, for such US L/C Participant’s own account and risk, an undivided
interest equal to such US L/C Participant’s US Revolving Credit Percentage in
each US Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under each US Letter of Credit
issued by such US Issuing Lender hereunder and the amount of each draft paid by
such US Issuing Lender thereunder. Each US L/C Participant unconditionally and
irrevocably agrees with each US Issuing Lender that, if a draft is paid under
any US Letter of Credit issued by such US Issuing Lender for which such US
Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the US Borrower in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement, such US L/C Participant shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of such US Issuing Lender upon demand at
such US Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein (and thereafter
the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to such US Issuing Lender) an
amount equal to such US L/C Participant’s US Revolving Credit Percentage of the
amount of such draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed. Each US
L/C Participant’s obligation to pay such amount shall be absolute and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any
setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such US L/C
Participant may have against the US Issuing Lender, the US Borrower or any
other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance
of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other
conditions specified in Section 5, (iii) any adverse change in the
condition (financial or otherwise) of either Borrower, (iv) any breach of
this Agreement or any other Loan Document by either Borrower, any other Loan
Party or any other US L/C Participant or (v) any other circumstance,
happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

 

(b)           If any amount required to be paid by any US
L/C Participant to an US Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in
respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by such US Issuing
Lender under any US Letter of Credit is paid to such US Issuing Lender within
three Business Days after the date such payment is due, the US Issuing Lender
shall so notify the Administrative Agent, who shall promptly notify the US L/C
Participants and each such US L/C Participant shall pay to the Administrative
Agent, for the account of the US Issuing Lender on demand (and thereafter the
Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the US Issuing Lender) an amount
equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average
Federal Funds Effective Rate during the period from and including the date such
payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to
such US Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is
the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which
is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any US L/C Participant
pursuant to Section 3.4(a) is not made available to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of such US Issuing Lender, by such US L/C
Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, the
Administrative Agent, on behalf of such US Issuing Lender shall be entitled to
recover from such US L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest
thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to Base
Rate Loans under the US Revolving Credit Facility. A certificate of the
Administrative Agent on behalf of such US Issuing Lender submitted to any US
L/C Participant with respect to any such amounts owing under this Section shall
be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

 

56

 

(c)           Whenever, at any time after any US Issuing
Lender has made payment under any US Letter of Credit and has received from the
Administrative Agent any US L/C Participant’s pro  rata share of
such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(a), such US Issuing Lender
receives any payment related to such US Letter of Credit (whether directly from
the US Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto
by such US Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, such
US Issuing Lender will distribute to the Administrative Agent for the account
of such US L/C Participant (and thereafter, the Administrative Agent will
promptly distribute to such US L/C Participant) its pro  rata
share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such
payment received by such US Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by
such US Issuing Lender, such US L/C Participant shall return to the
Administrative Agent for the account of such US Issuing Lender the portion
thereof previously distributed by such US Issuing Lender to it.

 

(d)           Each Canadian Issuing Lender irrevocably
agrees to grant and hereby grants to each Canadian L/C Participant, and, to
induce each Canadian Issuing Lender to issue Canadian Letters of Credit
hereunder, each Canadian L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and
purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from each Canadian Issuing Lender, on
the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such Canadian L/C Participant’s
own account and risk, an undivided interest equal to such Canadian L/C
Participant’s Canadian Revolving Credit Percentage in each Canadian Issuing
Lender’s obligations and rights under each Canadian Letter of Credit issued by
such Canadian Issuing Lender hereunder and the amount of each draft paid by
such Canadian Issuing Lender thereunder. Each Canadian L/C Participant
unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with each Canadian Issuing Lender that,
if a draft is paid under any Canadian Letter of Credit issued by such Canadian
Issuing Lender for which such Canadian Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full
by the Canadian Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such
Canadian L/C Participant shall pay to the Canadian Agent for the account of
such Canadian Issuing Lender upon demand at such Canadian Issuing Lender’s
address for notices specified herein (and thereafter the Canadian Agent shall
promptly pay to such Canadian Issuing Lender) an amount equal to such Canadian
L/C Participant’s Canadian Revolving Credit Percentage of the amount of such
draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed. Each Canadian L/C
Participant’s obligation to pay such amount shall be absolute and unconditional
and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff,
counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Canadian L/C
Participant may have against the Canadian Issuing Lender, the Canadian Borrower
or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or
continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any
of the other conditions specified in Section 5, (iii) any adverse
change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of either Borrower, (iv) any
breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by either Borrower, any
other Loan Party or any other Canadian L/C Participant or (v) any other
circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of
the foregoing.

 

(e)           If any amount required to be paid by any
Canadian L/C Participant to a Canadian Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(d) in
respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by such Canadian
Issuing Lender under any Canadian Letter of Credit is paid to such Canadian
Issuing Lender within three Business Days after the date such payment is due,
the Canadian Issuing Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent and the
Canadian Agent who shall promptly notify the Canadian L/C Participants and each
such Canadian L/C Participant shall pay to the Canadian Agent, for the account
of the Canadian Issuing Lender on demand (and thereafter the Canadian Agent
shall promptly pay to the Canadian Issuing Lender) an amount equal to the
product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average interbank
offered rate quoted by the Canadian Agent during the period from and including
the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is
immediately available to such Canadian Issuing Lender, times (iii) a
fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such
period and the denominator of which is 365 (or 366 as applicable). If any such
amount required to be paid by any Canadian L/C Participant pursuant to Section 3.4(d) is
not made available to the Canadian Agent, for

 

57

 

the account of such Canadian
Issuing Lender, by such Canadian L/C Participant within three Business Days
after the date such payment is due, the Canadian Agent, on behalf of such
Canadian Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Canadian L/C
Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such
due date at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Canadian
Revolving Credit Facility for amounts due in Dollars and Canadian prime Rate
Loans for amounts due in Canadian Dollars. A certificate of the Canadian Agent
on behalf of such Canadian Issuing Lender submitted to any Canadian L/C
Participant with respect to any such amounts owing under this Section shall
be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

 

(f)            Whenever, at any time after a Canadian
Issuing Lender has made payment under any Canadian Letter of Credit and has
received from the Canadian Agent any Canadian L/C Participant’s pro  rata
share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(d), such Canadian
Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Canadian Letter of Credit
(whether directly from the Canadian Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds
of collateral applied thereto by such Canadian Issuing Lender), or any payment
of interest on account thereof, such Canadian Issuing Lender will distribute to
the Canadian Agent for the account of such Canadian L/C Participant (and
thereafter, the Canadian Agent will promptly distribute to such Canadian L/C
Participant) its pro  rata share thereof; provided, however,
that in the event that any such payment received by such Canadian Issuing
Lender shall be required to be returned by such Canadian Issuing Lender, such
Canadian L/C Participant shall return to the Canadian Agent for the account of
such Canadian Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by such
Canadian Issuing Lender to it.

 

3.5.
Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower. (a) The US Borrower
agrees to reimburse each US Issuing Lender, on the Business Day on which such
US Issuing Lender notifies the US Borrower of the date and amount of a draft
presented under any US Letter of Credit and paid by such US Issuing Lender (if
such notice is received prior to 11:00 A.M. New York City time on such
day, otherwise on the next Business Day after such notice is received), for the
amount of (a) such draft so paid and (b) any taxes, fees, charges or
other costs or expenses incurred by such Issuing Lender in connection with such
payment (the amounts described in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) in
respect of any drawing, collectively, the “Payment Amount”). The US
Issuing Lender shall provide notice to the US Borrower on each Business Day on
which a draft is presented and paid by the US Issuing Lender indicating the
Payment Amount, provided, that failure to provide such notice shall not
affect the US Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Each such payment shall be made
to such US Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified herein in Lawful
money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds. Interest
shall be payable on each Payment Amount from the date of the applicable drawing
until payment in full at the rate set forth in Section 2.15. Each drawing
under any Letter of Credit shall (unless an event of the type described in Section 8(f)(i) or
Section 8.1(f)(ii) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect
to the US Borrower, in which case the procedures specified in Section 3.4
for funding by US L/C Participants shall apply) constitute a request by the US
Borrower to the Administrative Agent for a borrowing pursuant to Section 2.5
of Base Rate Loans (or, at the option of the Administrative Agent and the Swing
Line Lender in their sole discretion, a borrowing pursuant to Section 2.7
of Swing Line Loans) in the amount of such drawing. The Borrowing Date with
respect to such borrowing shall be the first date on which a borrowing of US
Revolving Credit Loans (or, if applicable, Swing Line Loans) could be made,
pursuant to Section 2.5 (or, if applicable, Section 2.7), if the
Administrative Agent had received a notice of such borrowing at the time the
Administrative Agent receives notice from the relevant US Issuing Lender of
such drawing under such US Letter of Credit. All payments due from the US
Borrower hereunder in respect of US Letters of Credit (and US Reimbursement
Obligations in connection therewith) shall be made in Dollars.

 

58

 

(b)           The Canadian Borrower agrees to reimburse
each Canadian Issuing Lender, on each date on which such Canadian Issuing
Lender notifies the Canadian Borrower of the date and amount of a draft
presented under any Canadian Letter of Credit and paid by such Canadian Issuing
Lender (if such notice is received prior to 11:00 A.M. Toronto time on
such day, otherwise on the next Business Day after such notice is received),
for the amount of (a) such draft so paid and (b) any taxes, fees,
charges or other costs or expenses incurred by such Canadian Issuing Lender in
connection with such payment (the amounts described in the foregoing clauses (a) and
(b) in respect of any drawing, collectively, the “Canadian Payment
Amount”). The Canadian Issuing Lender shall provide notice to the Canadian
Borrower on each Business Day on which a draft is presented and paid by the
Canadian Issuing Lender indicating the Canadian Payment Amount stated in
Canadian Dollars. Each such payment shall be made to such Canadian Issuing
Lender at its address for notices specified herein in Canadian Dollars and in
immediately available funds. Interest shall be payable on the amount of each
Canadian Payment Amount from the date of the applicable drawing until payment
in full at the rate set forth in (i) until the second Business Day
following the date of the applicable drawing, Section 2.15(e) and (ii) thereafter,
Section 2.15(f). Each drawing under any Canadian Letter of Credit shall
(unless an event of the type described in Section 8(f)(i) or Section 8.1(f)(ii) shall
have occurred and be continuing with respect to any Borrower, in which case the
procedures specified in Section 3.4 for funding by L/C Participants shall
apply) constitute a request by Canadian Borrower to the Canadian Agent for a
borrowing pursuant to Section 2.5(b) of Canadian Prime Rate Loans in
the amount of such drawing. The Borrowing Date with respect to such borrowing
shall be the first date on which a borrowing of Canadian Revolving Credit Loans
could be made, pursuant to Section 2.5(b), if the Canadian Agent had
received a notice of such borrowing at the time the Canadian Agent received notice
from the relevant Canadian Issuing Lender of such drawing under such Canadian
Letter of Credit. All payments due from the Canadian Borrower hereunder in
respect of Canadian Letters of Credit (and Canadian Reimbursement Obligations
in connection therewith) shall be made in Canadian Dollars.

 

3.6.          Obligations Absolute.  The
US Borrower’s and the Canadian Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3
shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and
irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that either the
US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower may have or have had against any Issuing
Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person.  The US Borrower and the Canadian Borrower
also each agree with each Issuing Lender that such Issuing Lender shall not be
responsible for, and the US Borrower’s and the Canadian Borrower’s
Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by,
among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any
endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be
invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the US Borrower
and/or the Canadian Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any
other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims
whatsoever of the either the US Borrower and/or the Canadian Borrower against
any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee. No Issuing
Lender shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in
transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however
transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or
omissions found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted directly
from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender. The US
Borrower and the Canadian Borrower each agrees that any action taken or omitted
by an Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by
it or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross
negligence or willful misconduct and, with respect to Letters of Credit, in
accordance with the standards of care specified in the UCC of the State of New
York, shall be binding on the US Borrower and the Canadian Borrower, as
applicable.

 

3.7.          Letter of Credit Payments. If any draft shall be presented for payment
under any Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Lender shall promptly notify
the Administrative Agent, if such

 

59

 

Letter of Credit is a
Canadian Letter of Credit, the Canadian Agent, the US Borrower and, if such
Letter of Credit is a Canadian Letter of Credit, the Canadian Borrower, of the
date and the amount thereof. The responsibility of the relevant Issuing Lender
to the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, in connection with
any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, in addition to any
payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit issued by
such Issuing Lender, shall be limited to determining that the documents
(including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with
such presentment appear on their face to be in conformity with such Letter of
Credit.

 

3.8.          Applications. To the extent that any provision of any
Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions
of this Section 3, the provisions of this Section 3 shall apply.

 

3.9.          Existing Letters of Credit.  On
the Closing Date, (i) each Existing Letter of Credit, to the extent
outstanding, shall automatically and without further action by the parties
thereto be deemed converted to Letters of Credit issued pursuant to Section 3.2
for the account of the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, and
subject to the provisions hereof, and for this purpose the fees payable with
respect to such Letters of Credit issued hereunder pursuant to Section 3.3
shall be payable (in substitution for any fees set forth in the applicable
letter of credit reimbursement agreements or applications relating to such
letters of credit) as if such Letters of Credit had been issued on the Closing
Date, and (ii) each of the Issuing Lenders listed on Schedule 1.1E
with respect to its respective Existing Letter Credit shall be deemed to be an
Issuing Lender hereunder with respect to its Letters of Credit.

 

SECTION 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

To
induce the Agents and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the
Loans and issue or participate in the Letters of Credit, each of the US
Borrower (on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries) and the Canadian Borrower
(on behalf of itself) hereby represents and warrants to each Agent and each
Lender that:

 

4.1.          Financial Condition. (a) The unaudited pro forma
consolidated balance sheet of the US Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries
as of March 31, 2006 (including the notes thereto) (the “Pro Forma
Balance Sheet”), copies of which have heretofore been furnished to each
Lender, has been prepared giving effect (as if such events had occurred on such
date) to (i) the Loans to be made on the Closing Date and the use of
proceeds thereof and (ii) the payment of fees and expenses in connection
with the foregoing. The Pro Forma Balance Sheet has been prepared based on the
best information available to the US Borrower as of the date of delivery
thereof, and presents fairly on a pro forma basis the estimated financial
position of the US Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of March 31,
2006, assuming that the events specified in the preceding sentence had actually
occurred at such date.

 

(b)           The audited consolidated balance sheets of
the US Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2003,
December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2005, and the audited consolidated
statements of income and of cash flows of the US Borrower for the fiscal period
or year ended on December 31, 2003, December 31, 2004 and December 31,
2005, respectively, reported on by and accompanied by an unqualified report
from Pricewaterhouse Coopers LLP, copies of which have heretofore been
furnished to each Lender, present fairly the consolidated financial condition
of the US Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries or the predecessor of the
US Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries, as the case may be, as at such
date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash
flows for the respective fiscal period or years then ended. The unaudited
consolidated balance sheet of the US Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries
as of March 31, 2006, and the related unaudited consolidated statements of
income and cash flows for the three-month period ended on such

 

60

 

date, copies of which have
heretofore been furnished to each Lender, present fairly the consolidated
financial condition of the US Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at
such date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated
cash flows for the three-month period then ended (subject to normal year-end
audit adjustments). All such financial statements, including the related
schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied
consistently throughout the periods involved (except as approved by the
aforementioned firms of accountants and disclosed therein). As of the Closing
Date, the US Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis do not have
any material Guarantee Obligations, contingent liabilities and liabilities for
taxes, or any long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments,
including, any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction
or other obligation in respect of derivatives, that would be required to be
reflected in its financial statements in accordance with GAAP that are not
reflected in the most recent financial statements referred to in this paragraph
or in the notes therein. During the period from December 31, 2005 to and
including the date hereof there has been no Disposition by the US Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries of any material part of its business or Property other
than as would have been permitted by Section 7.5.

 

4.2.          No Change.  Since December 31, 2005,
there has been no development or event that has had or could reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

4.3.          Corporate Existence; Compliance with Law.  The
US Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries (a) is duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
organization, (b) has the corporate power and authority to own and operate
its Property, to lease the Property it operates as lessee and to conduct the
business in which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a
foreign corporation or other organization and in good standing under the laws
of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of Property or the
conduct of its business requires such qualification and which is necessary for
the conduct of its operations and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements
of Law except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith could not, in
the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

4.4.          Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable
Obligations.  Each Loan Party has the corporate power and
authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents
to which it is a party and, in the case of the US Borrower and the Canadian
Borrower, to borrow hereunder. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary
corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the
Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the US Borrower and
the Canadian Borrower, to authorize the borrowings on the terms and conditions
of this Agreement. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or
other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person
is required in connection with the borrowings hereunder or the execution,
delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents, except (i) consents, authorizations, filings and
notices described in Schedule 4.4, which consents, authorizations,
filings and notices have been obtained or made and are in full force and
effect, (ii) the filings referred to in Section 4.19, or (iii) where
the failure to obtain such approval or consent could not reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect. . Each Loan Document has been duly executed
and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party that is a party thereto. This
Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon execution will
constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party that is a
party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its
terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles
(whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).

 

61

 

4.5.          No Legal Bar.  The
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, the issuance of Letters of Credit, the borrowings hereunder and the
use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any Requirement of Law or any
Contractual Obligation of the US Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries except to
the extent the failure to comply therewith could not reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect and will not result in, or require, the
creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or
revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation
(other than the Liens created by the Security Documents).

 

4.6.          No Material Litigation.  No
litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or
Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the US Borrower or
the Canadian Borrower, threatened by or against the US Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries or against any of their respective properties or revenues (a) with
respect to any of the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated
hereby or thereby, or (b) that could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect.

 

4.7.          No Default.  Neither the US Borrower nor
any of its Subsidiaries is in default under or with respect to any of its
Contractual Obligations in any respect that could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing.

 

4.8.          Ownership of Property; Liens.  The
US Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has title in fee simple to, or a valid
leasehold interest in, all its material real property, and good title to, or a
valid leasehold interest in, all its other material Property, and none of such
Property is subject to any Lien except as permitted by Section 7.3.

 

4.9.          Intellectual Property.  Except
as otherwise set forth on Schedule 4.9, the US Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries owns,
or is licensed to use, all Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of
its business as currently conducted. No material claim has been asserted in
writing or is pending by any Person challenging any Intellectual Property owned
or used by the US Borrower or any Subsidiary or the validity, enforceability,
registration or ownership of any Intellectual Property owned by the US Borrower
or any Subsidiary, nor does the US Borrower know of any valid basis for any
such claim. Neither the US Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries knows that the
use of Intellectual Property by the US Borrower and its Subsidiaries infringes
on the rights of any Person.

 

4.10.        Taxes.  The US Borrower and each of
its Subsidiaries has filed or caused to be filed all Federal, state (United
States or otherwise) and other material tax returns that are required to be
filed and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or on
any assessments made against it or any of its Property and all other taxes,
fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its Property by any Governmental
Authority (other than any the amount or validity of which are currently being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which
reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the US
Borrower or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be); and no tax Lien has been
filed, and, to the knowledge of the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, no
claim is being asserted, with respect to any such tax, fee or other charge.

 

4.11.        Federal Regulations.  No
part of the proceeds of any Loans, and no other extensions of credit hereunder,
will be used for “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” within the
respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U as now and
from time to time hereafter in effect or for any purpose that violates the
provisions of the Regulations of the Board. If requested by any Lender or the
Administrative Agent, the applicable Borrower will furnish to the

 

62

 

Administrative Agent and
each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the
requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form U-1 referred to in Regulation
U.

 

4.12.        Labor Matters.  There
are no strikes, other labor disputes or work slowdowns against the US Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries pending or, to the knowledge of the US Borrower or
the Canadian Borrower, threatened that (individually or in the aggregate) could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Hours worked by and
payment made to employees of the US Borrower and its Subsidiaries have not been
in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable
Requirement of Law dealing with such matters to a degree that (individually or
in the aggregate) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. All payments due by the US Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries on
account of wages, employee health and welfare insurance, other benefits or
other amounts owing to current or former employees of the US Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries that (individually or in the aggregate) could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect if not paid have been paid or
accrued as a liability on the books of the US Borrower or the relevant
Subsidiary. The consummation of the transactions contemplated under this
Agreement will not give rise to any right of termination or right to
renegotiate any employment agreement or collective bargaining agreement.

 

4.13.        Pension and Benefit Plans.

 

(a)           ERISA.  Neither a Reportable Event nor
an “accumulated funding deficiency” (within the meaning of Section 412 of
the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) has occurred during the five-year period
prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with
respect to any Plan, and each Plan has complied in all material respects with
the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code. No termination of a Single
Employer Plan has occurred, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen,
during such five-year period. The present value of all accrued benefits under
each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plans)
did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this
representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such
Plan allocable to such accrued benefits by a material amount. Neither the
Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial
withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be
expected to result in a material liability under ERISA, and neither the
Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject to any
material liability under ERISA if the Borrower or any such Commonly Controlled
Entity were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the
valuation date most closely preceding the date on which this representation is
made or deemed made. No such Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization or
Insolvent.

 

(b)           Canadian Pension Plans and Canadian Benefit
Plans.  The Canadian Borrower and the US Borrower
will cause to be delivered to the Administrative Agent, promptly upon, and in
any event within 5 Business Days of, the Administrative Agent’s request, a copy
of each Canadian Benefit Plan and Canadian Pension Plan (or, where any such
Canadian Benefit Plan or Canadian Pension Plan is not in writing, a complete
description of all material terms thereof) and, if applicable, related trust
agreements or other funding instruments and all amendments thereto, and all
written interpretations thereof and written descriptions thereof that have been
distributed to employees or former employees of Parent and its Subsidiaries.  The Canadian Pension Plans are duly
registered under the Income Tax Act (Canada)
and any other Requirement of Law which to the knowledge the Canadian Borrower
or the US Borrower require registration and no event has occurred which is
reasonably likely to cause the loss of such registered status.  All material obligations, if any, of the
Canadian Borrower or the US Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries (including
fiduciary, funding, investment and administration obligations) required to be
performed pursuant to a Requirement of Law in connection with the Canadian
Pension Plans and the funding agreements therefor have been performed in a
timely fashion and in accordance with all applicable Requirements of Law.  There have been no improper withdrawals or
applications of

 

63

 

the assets of the Canadian
Pension Plans or the Canadian Benefit Plans. Except as could not reasonably be
expected to result in a liability in excess of $20,000,000, (i) there are
no outstanding disputes concerning the assets held under the funding agreements
for the Canadian Pension Plans or the Canadian Benefit Plans and (ii) each
Canadian Pension Plan is fully funded both on going-concern basis and on a
solvency basis (using actuarial methods and assumptions which are consistent
with the valuations last filed with the applicable Governmental Authorities and
which are consistent with generally accepted actuarial principles). No promises
of benefit improvements under the Canadian Pension Plans or the Canadian
Benefit Plans have been made except where such improvement could not reasonably
be expected to result in a liability in excess of $20,000,000. All
contributions or premiums required to be made or paid by Parent and each of its
Subsidiaries, if any, in respect of the Canadian Pension Plans or the Canadian
Benefit Plans have been made or paid in a timely fashion in accordance with the
terms of such plans and all Requirements of Law. All employee contributions in
respect of the Canadian Pension Plans or the Canadian Benefit Plans by way of
authorized payroll deduction or otherwise have been properly withheld or
collected and fully paid into such plans in a timely manner. All material
reports and disclosures relating to the Canadian Pension Plans required by such
plans and any Requirement of Law to be filed or distributed have been filed or
distributed in a timely manner. Parent and each of its Subsidiaries has
withheld all employee withholdings to be withheld and has paid to the
applicable Governmental Authority all such employee withholdings and required
employer contributions pursuant to applicable law on account of Canada Pension
Plans, employment insurance and employee income taxes.

 

4.14.        Investment Company Act; Other Regulations.  No
Loan Party is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment
company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
No Loan Party is subject to regulation under any Requirement of Law (other than
Regulation X of the Board) that limits its ability to incur Indebtedness.

 

4.15.        Subsidiaries. 
(a)  The Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 4.15
constitute all the Subsidiaries of the US Borrower at the date hereof. Schedule 4.15
sets forth as of the Closing Date the name and jurisdiction of incorporation of
each Subsidiary and, as to each Subsidiary, the percentage of each class of
Capital Stock owned by each Loan Party.

 

(b)           Except as set forth on Schedule 4.15,
on the Closing Date, there are no outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants,
calls, rights or other agreements or commitments (other than stock options
granted to employees or directors and directors’ qualifying shares) of any
nature relating to any Capital Stock of the US Borrower or any Subsidiary.

 

4.16.        Use of Proceeds.  The
proceeds of the Term Loan Facility shall be used to (i) repay the Existing
Facilities, (ii) repay approximately $400.0 million of Permitted Vehicle
Indebtedness, (iii) fund a loan of up to $123,100,000 to Parent under the
Parent Promissory Note to fund the redemption of Parent’s preferred equity and (iv) pay
the related fees, commissions, premiums and expenses in connection therewith.
Amounts available under the Revolving Credit Facilities shall be used to
provide for the ongoing working capital requirements of the Canadian Borrower,
the US Borrower and its Subsidiaries and for general corporate purposes.

 

4.17.        Environmental Matters. Other than exceptions to any of the
following that could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect:

 

(a)           The US Borrower and its Subsidiaries: (i) are,
and within the period of all applicable statutes of limitation have been, in
compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws; (ii) hold all
Environmental Permits (each of which is in full force and effect) required for
any of their current or intended operations or for any property owned, leased,
or otherwise operated by any of them; (iii) are,

 

64

 

and within the period of all
applicable statutes of limitation have been, in compliance with all of their
Environmental Permits; and (iv) reasonably believe that: each of their
Environmental Permits will be timely renewed and complied with, without
material expense; any additional Environmental Permits that may be required of
any of them will be timely obtained and complied with, without material
expense; and compliance with any Environmental Law that is or is expected to
become applicable to any of them will be timely attained and maintained,
without material expense.

 

(b)           Materials of Environmental Concern are not
present at, on, under, or in any real property now or formerly owned, leased or
operated by the US Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or at any other
location (including, any location to which Materials of Environmental Concern
have been sent for re-use or recycling or for treatment, storage, or disposal)
which could reasonably be expected to (i) give rise to liability of the US
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries under any applicable Environmental Law or
otherwise result in costs to the US Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (ii) interfere
with the US Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ continued operations, or (iii) impair
the fair saleable value of any real property owned or leased by the US Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries.

 

(c)           There is no judicial, administrative, or
arbitral proceeding (including any notice of violation or alleged violation)
under or relating to any Environmental Law to which the US Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries is, or to the knowledge of the US Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries will be, named as a party that is pending or, to the knowledge of
the US Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, threatened.

 

(d)           Neither the US Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries has received any written request for information, or been notified
that it is a potentially responsible party under or relating to the federal
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act or any
similar Environmental Law, or with respect to any Materials of Environmental
Concern.

 

(e)           Neither the US Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries has entered into or agreed to any consent decree, order, or
settlement or other agreement, or is subject to any judgment, decree, or order
or other agreement, in any judicial, administrative, arbitral, or other forum
for dispute resolution, relating to compliance with or liability under any
Environmental Law.

 

(f)            Neither the US Borrower nor any of its
Subsidiaries has assumed or retained, by contract or operation of law, any
liabilities of any kind, fixed or contingent, known or unknown, under any
Environmental Law or with respect to any Materials of Environmental Concern.

 

4.18.        Accuracy of Information, etc.  No
statement or information contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document,
the Confidential Information Memorandum or any other document, certificate or
statement furnished to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent, or the
Lenders or any of them, by or on behalf of any Loan Party for use in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, contained as of the date such statement, information, document or
certificate was so furnished (or, in the case of the Confidential Information
Memorandum, as of the date of this Agreement), any untrue statement of a
material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements contained herein or therein not misleading. The Projections and pro
forma financial information contained in the materials referenced above
are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of
the US Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the
Lenders that such financial information as it relates to future events is not
to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods
covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set
forth therein by a material amount. There is no fact known to any Loan Party
that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that

 

65

 

has not been expressly
disclosed herein, in the other Loan Documents, in the Confidential Information
Memorandum or in any other documents, certificates and statements furnished to
the Agents and the Lenders for use in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents.

 

4.19.        Security Documents.  (a)  The
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is effective to create in favor of the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid
and enforceable security interest in the Collateral described therein and
proceeds thereof. The Canadian Collateral Agreements are effective to create in
favor of the Canadian Agent, for the benefit of the holders of Canadian
Obligations, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral
described therein and the proceeds thereof solely to secure the obligations
described therein as secured thereby. In the case of the “Pledged Stock” defined
and described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the Direct Parent
Pledge Agreement when any stock certificates representing such “Pledged Stock”
are delivered to the Administrative Agent, and in the case of the other
Collateral described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, (i) when
financing statements in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 4.19(a)-1
(which financing statements have been duly completed and delivered to the
Administrative Agent) and each of the Trademark Security Agreement and the
Patent Security Agreement is filed with the United States Patent and Trademark
Office (and the applicable corresponding filings have been made with the
applicable registries in Canada) and such other filings as are specified on Schedule 3
to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, have been completed (all of which
filings have been duly completed) and (ii) upon the taking of possession
or control by the Administrative Agent of the other Collateral with respect to
which a security interest may be perfected only by possession or control (which
possession or control shall be given to the Administrative Agent as required by
the Security Documents), (x) the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall
constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right,
title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds
thereof, as security for the “Obligations” (as defined in the Guarantee and
Collateral Agreement), subject to the Service Fleet Perfection Exclusion, and
(y) the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall constitute a fully
perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of
the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds thereof, as security for the
“Obligations” (as defined in the Canadian Collateral Agreements). Schedule 4.19(a)-2
lists each UCC Financing Statement (other than those filed pursuant to this
Agreement) that (i) names any Loan Party as debtor and (ii) will
remain on file after the Closing Date. Schedule 4.19(a)-3 lists
each financing statement under all applicable Personal Property Security
Legislation other than the UCC that (i) names any Loan Party as debtor and
(ii) will remain on file after the Closing Date. Schedule 4.19(a)-4
lists each UCC Financing Statement or other financing statement under all
applicable Personal Property Security Legislation that (i) names any Loan
Party as debtor and (ii) will be terminated on or prior to the Closing
Date; and on or prior to the Closing Date, the US Borrower will have delivered
to the Administrative Agent, or caused to be filed, duly completed UCC or other
applicable termination or discharge statements under Personal Property Security
Legislation, signed by the relevant secured party, if necessary, in respect of
each UCC Financing Statement or other financing statement under all applicable
Personal Property Security Legislation listed in Schedule 4.19(a)-4.

 

(b)           The Direct Parent Pledge Agreement is
effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of
the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the “Pledged
Collateral” defined and described therein and proceeds thereof. In the case of
the “Pledged Stock” defined and described in the Direct Parent Pledge
Agreement, when any stock certificates representing such “Pledged Stock” are
delivered to the Administrative Agent the Direct Parent Pledge Agreement shall
constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right,
title and interest of Parent in such “Pledged Collateral” and the proceeds
thereof, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the Direct Parent
Pledge Agreement).

 

66

 

(c)           Each of the Mortgages is effective to create
in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties a
legal, valid and enforceable Lien on the Mortgaged Properties described therein
and proceeds thereof; and when the Mortgages are filed in the offices specified
on Schedule 4.19(c) (in the case of the Mortgages to be
executed and delivered on the Closing Date) or in the recording office
designated by the US Borrower (in the case of any Mortgage to be executed and
delivered pursuant to Section 6.10(c)), each Mortgage shall constitute a
fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and
interest of the Loan Parties in the Mortgaged Properties described therein and
the proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the
relevant Mortgage), in each case prior and superior in right to any other
Person (other than Persons holding Liens or other encumbrances or rights
permitted by the relevant Mortgage). Schedule 1.1B lists, as of the
Closing Date, each parcel of owned real property located in the United States
and held by the US Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that has a value, in the
reasonable opinion of the US Borrower, in excess of $1,000,000.

 

4.20.        Solvency.  The Loan Parties, taken as
whole, are and after giving effect to the incurrence of all Indebtedness and
obligations being incurred in connection herewith and therewith will be and
will continue to be, Solvent.

 

4.21.        Regulation H.  No
Mortgage encumbers improved real property which is located in an area that has
been identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as an area
having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made
available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (except any Mortgaged
Properties as to which such flood insurance as required by Regulation H has
been obtained and is in full force and effect as required by this Agreement).

 

4.22.        Deposit Accounts.  Other
than (i) money and checks received in branches or in transit or deposited
to depositary accounts for remittance to the Concentration Account within a
reasonable time after finally collected funds become available, (ii) cash
deposited to a disbursement account when or within a reasonable time before
disbursement therefrom is required, (iii) not more than $5,000,000 in
other cash and cash equivalents, and (iv) cash on deposit in respect of
medical insurance policies, all cash and Cash Equivalents of the US Borrower
and its Subsidiaries (other than Finance Companies and International Automotive
Group Insurance Company, Ltd.) are held in the Concentration Account.

 

SECTION 5. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

 

5.1.          Conditions to Initial Extension of Credit.  The

concurrently with the making of such extension of credit on the Closing Date,
of the following conditions precedent:

 

(a)           Loan Documents.  The
Administrative Agent shall have received (i) this Agreement, (ii) the
Notes (if any), (iii) the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, (iv) the
Direct Parent Pledge Agreement, (v) a Mortgage covering each of the

from the Determination Date (or if such day is not a Business Day, on the next
succeeding Business Day) the US Borrower or its Subsidiaries repay sufficient

on Permitted Vehicle Collateral to no longer constitute Permitted Vehicle
Indebtedness, in each case so that the US Borrower and the Canadian Borrower
would have been in compliance as of the Determination Date assuming such
repayment, deposit or redesignation had been made on such date.

to any Plan, or any Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan shall arise on the
assets of the US Borrower or any Commonly Controlled Entity, (iii) a
Reportable Event shall occur with respect to, or proceedings shall commence to
have a trustee appointed, or a trustee shall be appointed, to administer or to
terminate, any Single Employer Plan, which Reportable Event or commencement of
proceedings or appointment of a trustee is, in the reasonable opinion of the
Required Lenders, likely to result in the termination of such Plan for purposes
of Title IV of ERISA, (iv) any Single Employer Plan shall terminate for
purposes of Title IV of ERISA, (v) the US Borrower or any Commonly
Controlled Entity shall incur any liability in connection with a withdrawal
from, or the Insolvency or Reorganization of, a Multiemployer Plan, (vi) any
other event or condition shall occur or exist with respect to a Plan; (vii) any
going concern, unfunded liability or solvency deficiency shall exist with
respect to any Canadian Pension Plan, (viii) any event shall occur which
could reasonably cause a revocation of the registered status of any Canadian
Pension Plan or which could reasonably cause any regulatory authority to order
the appointment of an administrator of any Canadian Pension Plan, (ix) the
partial or full wind-up of any Canadian Pension Plan, (x) any failure to remit
any contributions when due with respect to any Canadian Pension Plan, or (xi)
any other event or condition shall occur or exist with respect to a Canadian
Pension Plan; and in each case in clauses (i) through (xi) above, such
event or condition, together with all other such events or conditions, if any,
could reasonably be expected to result in a liability of the US Borrower or its
Subsidiaries in excess of $20,000,000; or

 

(h)           one or more judgments or decrees shall be entered against the US
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries involving for the US Borrower and its
Subsidiaries taken as a whole a liability (not paid or fully covered by
insurance as to which the relevant insurance company has acknowledged coverage)
of $15,000,000 or more, and all such judgments or decrees shall not have been
vacated, discharged, stayed or bonded pending appeal within 30 days from the
entry thereof; or

 

(i)            any of the Security Documents shall cease,
for any reason, to be in full force and effect in any material respect or any
Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party shall so assert, or any Lien created
by any of the Security Documents shall cease to be enforceable and of the same
effect and priority purported to be created thereby;

 

(j)            the guarantee contained in Section 2 of
the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall cease, for any reason (other than
by reason of the express release thereof pursuant to Section 10.15), to be
in full force and effect or any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party
shall so assert; or

 

(k)           any Change of Control shall occur;

 

then, and in any such event,
(A) if such event is an Event of Default specified in clause (i) or (ii) of
paragraph (f) above with respect to the US Borrower or the Canadian
Borrower, automatically the Commitments shall immediately terminate and the
Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including the aggregate face
amount of all outstanding Banker’s Acceptances, whether or not the Banker’s
Acceptances have matured, and L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries
of the then outstanding Letters of Credit have presented the documents required
thereunder), shall immediately become due and payable, and (B) if such
event is any other Event of Default, any or all of the following actions may be
taken: (i) with the

 

91

 

consent of the Required
Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required
Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the US Borrower declare
the Commitments to be terminated forthwith, whereupon the Commitments shall
immediately terminate; and (ii) with the consent of the Required Lenders, the
Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the
Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the US Borrower and the Canadian
Borrower, declare the Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all
other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
(including the aggregate face amount of all outstanding Banker’s Acceptances,
whether or not the Banker’s Acceptances have matured, and L/C Obligations,
whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit have
presented the documents required thereunder) to be due and payable forthwith,
whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable. In the case of all
US Letters of Credit with respect to which presentment for honor shall not have
occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this paragraph, the US
Borrower shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account opened by the
Administrative Agent an amount in immediately available funds equal to the
aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such US Letters of Credit (and
the Borrowers hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit
of the Secured Parties, a continuing security interest in all amounts at any
time on deposit in such cash collateral account to secure the undrawn and
unexpired amount of such US Letters of Credit and all other Obligations of the
Borrowers). In the case of all Canadian Letters of Credit with respect to which
presentment for honor shall not have occurred or Banker’s Acceptances which
have not matured at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this paragraph, the
Canadian Borrower shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account
opened by the Canadian Agent an amount in immediately available funds equal to
the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Canadian Letters of
Credit and the aggregate face amount of unmatured Banker’s Acceptances (and the
Canadian Borrower hereby grants to the Canadian Agent, for the benefit of the
holders of Canadian Obligations, a continuing security interest in all amounts
at any time on deposit in such cash collateral account to secure the undrawn and
unexpired amount of such Canadian Letters of Credit or the unmatured Banker’s
Acceptances and all other Obligations of the Canadian Borrower). If at any time
any funds held in such cash collateral account are subject to any right or
claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent and
the relevant Secured Parties or that the total amount of such funds is less
than the aggregate undrawn and unexpired amount of outstanding US Letters of
Credit, Canadian Letters of Credit or Banker’s Acceptances, the US Borrower or
the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, shall, forthwith upon demand by the
Administrative Agent or the Canadian Agent, as applicable, pay to the
Administrative Agent or the Canadian Agent, as applicable, as additional funds
to be deposited and held in such cash collateral account, an amount equal to
the excess of (a) such aggregate undrawn and unexpired amount over (b) the
total amount of funds, if any, then held in such cash collateral account that
the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Agent, as applicable, determines to be
free and clear of any such right and claim. Amounts held in such cash
collateral account with respect to US Letters of Credit shall be applied by the
Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such US Letters of
Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such US Letters of Credit
shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay
other obligations of the Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.
Amounts held in such cash collateral account with respect to Canadian Letters
of Credit and Banker’s Acceptances shall be applied by the Canadian Agent to
the payment of drafts drawn under such Canadian Letters of Credit and the
reimbursement obligations of the Canadian Borrower with respect to matured
Banker’s Acceptances, and the unused portion thereof after all such Canadian
Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, and all
such Banker’s Acceptances shall have matured, if any, shall be applied to repay
other obligations of the Canadian Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents. After all such Banker’s Acceptances shall have matured and all such
Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, all
Reimbursement Obligations shall have been satisfied and all other obligations
of the US Borrower and the Canadian Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents
shall have been

 

92

 

paid
in full, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned
to the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable (or such other
Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto).

 

SECTION 9. THE AGENTS

 

9.1.          Appointment. Each Lender hereby
irrevocably designates and appoints the Agents as the agents of such Lender
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and appoints the Canadian
Agent as sub-agent for the Administrative Agent with respect to all Canadian
Collateral Agreements, and each Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent, in
such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform
such duties as are expressly delegated to such Agent by the terms of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary
elsewhere in this Agreement, no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities,
except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any
Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties,
obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or otherwise exist against any Agent.

 

9.2.          Delegation of Duties. Each
Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to
advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent
shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

 

9.3.          Exculpatory Provisions. Neither
any Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact
or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to
be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any
other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found
by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to
have resulted from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful
misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any
recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or
any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided
for in, or received by the Agents under or in connection with, this Agreement
or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness,
genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder
or thereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to
ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the
agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party.

 

9.4.          Reliance by Agents. Each Agent
shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any
instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit,
letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document
or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been
signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and
statements of legal counsel (including, counsel to the Loan Parties),
independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent. The Agents
may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes
unless such Note shall have been transferred in accordance with Section 10.6
and all actions required by such Section in connection with such transfer shall
have been taken. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to
take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall
first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so
specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of
Lenders specified by this Agreement) as it deems appropriate or it shall first
be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability
and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to

 

93

 

take any such action. Each
Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from
acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a
request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all
Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement),
and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall
be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

 

9.5.          Notice of Default. No Agent
shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or
Event of Default hereunder unless such Agent shall have received notice from a
Lender, the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower referring to this Agreement,
describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a
“notice of default.” In the event that the Administrative Agent shall receive
such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the
Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such
Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required
Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other
instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement); provided,
that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such
directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take
such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default
or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the
Lenders.

 

9.6.          Non-Reliance on Agents and Other
Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither any of the Agents
nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents,
attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to
it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the
affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to
constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each
Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance
upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information
as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into
the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and
creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates and made its own
decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender
also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent
or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall
deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis,
appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems
necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial
and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their
affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to
be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, no Agent
shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or
other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition
(financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or
any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of such Agent
or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or
affiliates.

 

9.7.          Indemnification. The Lenders
agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not
reimbursed by the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower and without limiting the
obligation of the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower to do so), ratably
according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages in effect on the
date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if
indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have
terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance
with such Aggregate Exposure Percentages immediately prior to such date), for,
and to save each Agent harmless from and against, any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time
(including, at any time following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on,
incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising
out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any
documents

 

94

 

contemplated by or referred
to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any
action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the
foregoing; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of
any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a
final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The
agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other
amounts payable hereunder.

 

9.8.          Agent in Its Individual Capacity.
Each Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and
generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such
Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and
with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by it, each
Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an
Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its
individual capacity.

 

9.9.          Successor Agents. The
Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 10 days’ notice to
the Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as
Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then
the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for
the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under
Section 8(a) or Section 8(f) with respect to the Borrower shall have occurred
and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall
succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the
term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective
upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s
rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without
any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative
Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. If
no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date
that is 10 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of
resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless
thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the
duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the
Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. The Canadian
Agent may resign as Canadian Agent upon 10 days notice to the Lenders and the
US Borrower. If the Canadian Agent shall resign as Canadian Agent under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Canadian Required Lenders
shall appoint from among the Canadian Revolving Credit Lenders a successor
agent for the Canadian Agent, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of
Default under Section 8(a) or Section 8(f) with respect to the US Borrower
shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the US
Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld of delayed)
whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties
of the Canadian Agent, and the term “Canadian Agent” shall mean such
successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former
Canadian Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Canadian Agent shall be
terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former
Canadian Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the
Loans or issuers of Letters of Credit. If no successor agent has accepted
appointment as Canadian Agent by the date that is 10 days following a retiring
Canadian Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Canadian Agent’s
resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Canadian
Revolving Credit Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the
Canadian Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the such Lenders appoint a
successor agent as provided for above. Any Syndication Agents may, at any time,
by notice to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, resign as Syndication
Agent hereunder, whereupon the duties, rights, obligations and responsibilities
of such Syndication Agent hereunder shall automatically be assumed by, and
inure to the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, without any further act by
such Syndication Agent, the Administrative Agent or

 

95

 

any Lender. Any
Documentation Agent may, at any time, by notice to the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent, resign as Documentation Agent hereunder, whereupon the
duties, rights, obligations and responsibilities of such Documentation Agent
hereunder shall automatically be assumed by, and inure to the benefit of, the
Administrative Agent, without any further act by such Documentation Agent, the
Administrative Agent or any Lender. After any retiring Agent’s resignation as
Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

9.10.        Authorization to Release Liens and
Guarantees. The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by
each of the Lenders to effect any release of Liens or guarantee obligations
contemplated by Section 10.15.

 

9.11.        The Arrangers; the Syndication Agents;
the Documentation Agent; the Joint Bookrunners. Neither any Arranger nor
any Syndication Agent nor any Documentation Agent nor any Joint Bookrunner, in
their respective capacities as such, shall have any duties or responsibilities,
nor shall any such Person incur any liability, under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents.

 

9.12.        Withholding Tax. To the extent
required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent and the Canadian
Agent, as applicable, may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount
equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the Internal Revenue Service
or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative
Agent or the Canadian Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to
or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered
or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the
Administrative Agent and the Canadian Agent, as applicable, of a change in
circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding
tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender shall indemnify the
Administrative Agent and the Canadian Agent, as applicable, fully for all
amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent and the
Canadian Agent, as applicable, as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or
interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated
internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred.

 

9.13.        Quebec Security. For greater
certainty, and without limiting the powers of the Canadian Agent or any other
Person acting as an agent or mandatary for the Canadian Agent hereunder or
under any of the other Loan Documents, each Lender hereby acknowledges that,
for purposes of holding any security granted by any of the Loan Parties on
property pursuant to the laws of the Province of Quebec to secure obligations
of such Loan Party under any debenture, bond or other title of indebtedness
issued by a Loan Party, the Canadian Agent shall be the holder of an
irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de
pouvoir) (within the meaning of the Civil
Code of Quebec) for all present and future Lenders, and in
particular for all present and future holders of any debenture, bond or other
title of indebtedness issued by a Loan Party. Each Lender hereby irrevocably
constitutes, to the extent necessary, the Canadian Agent as the holder of an
irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir)
(within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec) in order to hold
security granted by any Loan Party in the Province of Quebec to secure the
obligations of such Loan Party under any debenture, bond or other title of
indebtedness that may be issued by a Loan Party and pledged in favor of the
Canadian Agent for the benefit of the Lenders. Each assignee of a Lender shall
be deemed to have confirmed and ratified the constitution of the Canadian Agent
as the holder of such irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir) by execution of the Assignment and
Acceptance. The execution by the Canadian Agent, acting as fondé de pouvoir and
mandatary, prior to this Agreement, of any deeds of hypothec or other security
documents is hereby ratified and confirmed. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Section 32 of the An Act respecting the
special powers of legal persons (Quebec), the Canadian Agent may
acquire and be the holder of any debenture, bond or other title of indebtedness
issued under any deed of hypothec and issue of bonds executed by any

 

96

 

Loan Party in favour of the
Canadian Agent as fondé de pouvoir. Each Loan Party
hereby acknowledges that such debenture or bond constitutes a title of
indebtedness, as such term is used in Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec.

 

The
Canadian Agent, acting as holding of an irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir), shall have the same
rights, powers, immunities, indemnities and exclusions from liability as are
prescribed in favor of the Canadian Agent in the Agreement, which shall apply mutatis mutandis. Without limitation, the
provisions of Section 9.9 of this Agreement shall apply mutatis mutandis to the resignation and
appointment of a successor Canadian Agent, acting as the holder of an
irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir).

 

SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS

relevant Loan Document may, or (with the written consent of the Required
Lenders) the Administrative Agent and each Loan party to the relevant Loan
Document may, from time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements
or modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents (including amendments
and restatements hereof or thereof) for the purpose of adding any provisions to
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights
of the Lenders or of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive, on
such terms and conditions as may be specified in the instrument of waiver, any
of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any

applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates (which waiver
shall be effective with the consent of the Majority Facility Lenders of each
adversely affected Facility) and (y) that any amendment or modification of
defined terms used in the financial covenants in this Agreement shall not
constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or fees for purposes of this
clause (i)) or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, or increase
the amount or extend the expiration date of any Commitment of any Lender, in
each case without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

 

(ii)           amend, modify or

of credit to be made) without the consent of the Majority Revolving Credit
Facility Lenders;

 

(iv)          reduce the

respect to any Facility without the consent of all of the Lenders under such

Any such waiver and any such
amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the
Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Agents and
all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties,
the Lenders and the Agents shall be restored to their former position and
rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event
of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such
waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or
impair any right consequent thereon. Any such waiver, amendment, supplement or
modification shall be effected by a written instrument signed by the parties
required to sign pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section; provided,
that delivery of an executed signature page of any such instrument by facsimile
transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart
thereof.

 

10.2.        Notices. All notices, requests
and demands to or upon the respective parties hereto to be effective shall be

  Issuing
  Lenders:

  	
  As
  notified by such Issuing Lender to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian
  Agent and the Borrowers.

  
				

 

provided, that any notice, request or demand to or
upon the Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender shall not be effective until
received.

 

Notices
and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished
by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by the
Administrative Agent; provided, that the foregoing shall not apply to
notices pursuant to Section 2 unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative
Agent and the applicable Lender. The Administrative Agent, the US Borrower or
the Canadian Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other
communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to
procedures approved by it; provided, that approval of such procedures may be
limited to particular notices or communications.

 

10.3.        No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No
failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Agent or any
Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan
Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other
or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power
or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are
cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges
provided by law.

 

10.4.        Survival of Representations and
Warranties. All representations and warranties made herein, in the other
Loan Documents and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant
hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of
this Agreement and the making of the Loans and other extensions of credit
hereunder.

 

10.5.        Payment of Expenses. Each of the
US Borrower and the Canadian Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Agents
for all their reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in
connection with the syndication of the Facilities (other than fees payable to
syndicate members) and the development, preparation and execution of, and any
amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith,
and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby
and thereby, including, the reasonable fees and disbursements and other charges
of counsel to the Administrative Agent and the charges of Intra links, (b) to
pay or reimburse each Lender and the Agents for all their costs and expenses
incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under
this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in
connection herewith or therewith, including, the fees and disbursements of
counsel (including the allocated fees and disbursements and other charges of
in-house counsel) to each Lender and of counsel to the Agents, (c) to pay,
indemnify, or reimburse each Lender and the Agents for, and hold each Lender
and the Agents harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and
all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp,
excise and other taxes, if any, which may be

 

101

 

payable or determined to be
payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or
administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment,
supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of,
this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, and (d)
to pay, indemnify or reimburse each Lender, each Agent, their respective
affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, trustees, employees,
advisors, agents and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnitee”) for,
and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all other liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, and costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever incurred by an
Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the US
Borrower, the Canadian Borrower or any other Loan Party 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 by the parties hereto or thereto of their
respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit
or the use or proposed use of the proceeds thereof (including any refusal by
any Issuing Lender 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 Materials of Environmental Concern on or from any property owned,
occupied or operated by the US Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any
Environmental Liability related in any way to the US Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties, 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 any third party or by the US Borrower, the Canadian Borrower or any
other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto
(all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified
Liabilities”), provided, that the US Borrower and the Canadian
Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to
Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are found by
a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have
resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. No
Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unauthorized
persons of Information or other materials sent through electronic,
telecommunications or other information transmission systems that are intercepted
by such persons or for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages
in connection with the Facilities. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the
extent permitted by applicable law, each of the US Borrower and the Canadian
Borrower agrees not to assert and to cause its Subsidiaries not to assert, and
hereby waives and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries so to waive, all rights for
contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims,
demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and
expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws,
that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee. All
amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 30 days after
written demand therefor. Statements payable by the US Borrower or the Canadian
Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be submitted to the address of the US
Borrower set forth in Section 10.2, or to such other Person or address as may
be hereafter designated by the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower in a notice
to the Administrative Agent. The agreements in this Section shall survive
repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

 

10.6.        Successors and Assigns;
Participations and Assignments. (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the US Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, the
Lenders, the Agents, all future holders of the Loans and their respective
successors and assigns, except that neither the US Borrower nor the Canadian
Borrower may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this
Agreement without the prior written consent of the Agents and each Lender (and
any such transfer or assignment by the Borrower shall be void).

 

102

 

(b)           Any Lender may, without the consent
of the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, in accordance with applicable law,
at any time sell to one or more banks, financial institutions or other entities
(other than the Sponsor or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) (each, a “Participant”)
participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Commitment of
such Lender or any other interest of such Lender hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating
interest to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to
the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall
remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain
the holder of any such Loan for all purposes under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, and the US Borrower, the Canadian Borrower and the Agents shall
continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. In no event shall any Participant under any such participation have
any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan
Document, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except
to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would require the consent
of all Lenders pursuant to Section 10.1. Each of the US Borrower and the
Canadian Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement and
the Loans are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become
due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant
shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, be deemed to have the
right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under
this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating
interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement, provided,
that, in purchasing such participating interest, such Participant shall be
deemed to have agreed to share with the Lenders the proceeds thereof as
provided in Section 10.7(a) as fully as if such Participant were a Lender
hereunder. Each of the US Borrower and the Canadian Borrower also agrees that
each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.19, 2.20 and
2.21 with respect to its participation in the Commitments and the Loans
outstanding from time to time as if such Participant were a Lender; provided,
that, in the case of Section 2.20, such Participant shall have complied with
the requirements of said Section, and provided, further, that no
Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to any
such Section than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in
respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor
Lender to such Participant had no such transfer occurred.

 

(c)           Any Lender (an “Assignor”)
may, in accordance with applicable law and upon written notice to the
Administrative Agent (and the Canadian Agent, in the case of the Canadian
Revolving Credit Loans or Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments), at any time
and from time to time assign to any Person meeting the criteria of clause (i)
of the definition of the term “Eligible Assignee” or, with the consent of the
US Borrower and the Administrative Agent and, (A) in the case of any assignment
of US Revolving Credit Commitments, the written consent of the US Issuing
Lender and the Swing Line Lender which, in each case, shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) and (B) in the case of any assignment of Canadian
Revolving Credit Commitments, the written consent of the Canadian Issuing
Lender (which, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (provided,
that, the consent of the US Borrower need not be obtained with respect to any
assignment of Term Loans), to any Person meeting the criteria of clause (ii) of
the definition of the term “Eligible Assignee” (an “Assignee”) all or
any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to an
Assignment and Acceptance, substantially in the form of Exhibit E, executed by
such Assignee and such Assignor (and, where the consent of the US Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, the Canadian Agent, the US Issuing Lender, the Swing Line
Lender or the Canadian Issuing Lender is required pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, by the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, and
such other Persons) and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its
acceptance and recording in the Register; provided, that no such
assignment to an Assignee (other than any Lender or any affiliate thereof)
shall be in an aggregate principal amount of less than $1,000,000 (with respect
to Term Loans) and $2,500,000 (with respect to the Revolving Credit Facilities)
(other than in the case of an assignment of all of a Lender’s interests under
this

 

103

 

Agreement), unless otherwise
agreed by the US Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Any such assignment
need not be ratable as among the Facilities. Upon such execution, delivery,
acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant
to such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party
hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the
rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with Commitments and/or Loans as
set forth therein, and (y) the Assignor thereunder shall, to the extent provided
in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this
Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of an
Assignor’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Assignor shall
cease to be a party hereto, except as to Sections 2.19, 2.20 and 10.5 in
respect of the period prior to such effective date). Notwithstanding any
provision of this Section, neither the consent of the US Borrower nor the
Canadian Borrower, as applicable, shall be required nor shall the prohibition
on assignments of Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments to Non-Canadian Lenders
apply, for any assignment that occurs at any time when any Event of Default
under Sections 8(a), (e) or (f) shall have occurred and be continuing. For
purposes of the minimum assignment amounts set forth in this paragraph,
multiple assignments by two or more Related Funds shall be aggregated.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.6, a
Lender may assign any or all of its rights hereunder to an Affiliate of such
Lender or a Related Fund by the execution of an Assignment and Acceptance by
such assigning Lender and its Affiliate or Related Fund but without written
notice of such assignment to the Administrative Agent or delivery of such
executed Assignment and Acceptance to the Administrative Agent; provided,
however, that (x) the Loan Parties and Agents may continue to deal
solely and directly with the assigning Lender until such Assignment and
Acceptance has been delivered to the Administrative Agent, (y) the failure of
such assigning Lender to deliver such notice or to deliver the Assignment and
Acceptance to the Administrative Agent or any other Person shall not affect the
legality, validity, or binding effect of such assignment, and (z) an Assignment
and Acceptance between an assigning Lender and its Affiliate or a Related Fund
shall be effective as of the date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance.
No US Revolving Credit Lender that is also a Canadian Revolving Credit Lender
shall assign its US Revolving Credit Commitments separately from its Canadian
Revolving Credit Commitments.

 

(d)           The Administrative Agent shall, on
behalf of the US Borrower and the Canadian Borrower, maintain at its address
referred to in Section 10.2 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered
to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names
and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the
Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time. In the case of an assignment to
an Affiliate or Related Fund pursuant to the last sentence of Section 10.6(c),
in which an Assignment and Assumption is not delivered to the Administrative
Agent, the Assignor, on behalf of the US Borrower and the Canadian Borrower,
shall maintain a register (the “Related Party Register”‘) comparable to
the Register. The entries in the Register or Related Party Register shall be
conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the US Borrower, the Canadian
Borrower each Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is
recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loans and any Notes evidencing
such Loans recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. Any assignment
of any Loan, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall be effective only upon
appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register (and each
Note shall expressly so provide). Any assignment or transfer of all or part of
a Loan evidenced by a Note shall be registered on the Register only upon
surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the Note evidencing
such Loan, accompanied by a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance; thereupon
one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to
the designated Assignee, and the old Notes shall be returned by the
Administrative Agent to the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as
applicable, marked “canceled.” The Register shall be available for inspection
by the US Borrower, the Canadian Borrower or any Lender (with respect to any
entry relating to such Lender’s Loans) at any reasonable time and from time to
time upon reasonable prior notice.

 

104

 

(e)           Upon its receipt of an Assignment and
Acceptance executed by an Assignor and an Assignee (and, in any case where the
consent of any other Person is required by Section 10.6(c), by each such other
Person) (treating multiple, simultaneous assignments by or to two or more
Related Funds as a single assignment), the Administrative Agent shall (i)
promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) on the effective date
determined pursuant thereto record the information contained therein in the
Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Borrower. On
or prior to such effective date, the Borrower, at its own expense, upon
request, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (in exchange for
the Revolving Credit Note and/or applicable Term Notes, as the case may be, of
the assigning Lender) a new Revolving Credit Note and/or applicable Term Notes,
as the case may be, to the order of such Assignee in an amount equal to the
applicable Revolving Credit Commitment and/or Term Loans, as the case may be,
assumed or acquired by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if
the Assignor has retained a Revolving Credit Commitment and/or Term Loans, as
the case may be, upon request, a new Revolving Credit Note and/or Term Notes,
as the case may be, to the order of the Assignor in an amount equal to the
applicable Revolving Credit Commitment and/or Term Loans, as the case may be,
retained by it hereunder. Such new Note or Notes shall be dated the Closing
Date and shall otherwise be in the form of the Note or Notes replaced thereby.

 

(f)            For avoidance of doubt, the parties
to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this Section concerning
assignments of Loans and Notes relate only to absolute assignments and that
such provisions do not prohibit assignments creating security interests in Loans
and Notes, including, any pledge or assignment by a Lender of any Loan or Note
to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable law.

 

(g)           Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to
a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in
writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent or
with respect to the Canadian Revolving Credit Loans and the Canadian Revolving
Credit Commitments, the Canadian Agent, and the US Borrower or the Canadian
Borrower, as applicable, the option to provide to the US Borrower or the
Canadian Borrower, as applicable, all or any part of any Loan that such
Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the US Borrower or the
Canadian Borrower, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement; provided,
that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any
Loan and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails
to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated
to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC
hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same
extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party
hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar
payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain
with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto
hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement)
that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full
of all outstanding commercial paper or other indebtedness of any SPC, it will not
institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC
any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation
proceedings. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 10.6(g), any SPC may (A) with notice to, but without the prior written
consent of, the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as applicable, and the
applicable Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or
a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender, or with the
prior written consent of the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as
applicable, and applicable Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld) to any financial institutions providing liquidity and/or credit
support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance
of Loans, and (B) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information
relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider
of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC; provided,
that non-public information with respect to the US

 

105

 

Borrower or the Canadian
Borrower may be disclosed only with the US Borrower’s or the Canadian Borrower’s
consent, as applicable, which will not be unreasonably withheld. This paragraph
(g) may not be amended without the written consent of any SPC with Loans
outstanding at the time of such proposed amendment.

 

10.7.        Adjustments; Set-off. (a) Except
to the extent that this Agreement provides for payments to be allocated to a
particular Lender or to the Lenders under a particular Facility, if any Lender
(a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or
part of the Obligations owing to it, or receive any collateral in respect
thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events
or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8(f), or otherwise), in a
greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other
Lender, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such other Lender, such
Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating
interest in such portion of the Obligations owing to each such other Lender, or
shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as
shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment
or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided,
however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits
is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be
rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such
recovery, but without interest. The provisions of this paragraph are intended
to apply to all Lenders and to all payments, Collateral or proceeds of
Collateral received by such Lenders in respect of the Obligations of the US
Borrower or the Canadian Borrower hereunder regardless of whether such payment,
collateral or proceeds from Collateral received by such Benefited Lender were
received by such Lender with respect to the Obligations of the US Borrower or
the Canadian Borrower or and regardless of whether the collateral or proceeds
of Collateral were pledged to secure the Canadian Revolving Credit Facility,
the US Revolving Credit Facility or the Term Loan Facility.

 

(b)           In addition to any rights and
remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right,
without prior notice to the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, any such
notice being expressly waived by the US Borrower and the Canadian Borrower to
the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and
payable by the US Borrower and the Canadian Borrower hereunder (whether at the
stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to set off and appropriate and
apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or
demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits,
indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or
indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or
owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or
the account of the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, provided,
that notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender may set off deposits, claims or
other property of the Canadian Borrower or a Canadian Subsidiary against
amounts owed to such Lender unless such amounts owed are Canadian Obligations.
Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower, and the Administrative
Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided,
that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such
setoff and application.

 

10.8.        Counterparts. This Agreement may
be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of
separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be
deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed
signature page of this Agreement or of a Lender Addendum by facsimile
transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart
hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall
be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

 

10.9.        Severability. Any provision of
this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall,
as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such

 

106

 

prohibition or unenforceability
without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition
or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

10.10.      Integration. This Agreement and the
other Loan Documents represent the entire agreement of the US Borrower, the
Canadian Borrower, the Agents, the Arrangers and the Lenders with respect to
the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings,
representations or warranties by the Arrangers, any Agent or any Lender
relative to subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein
or in the other Loan Documents.

 

10.11.      GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND
THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK.

 

10.12.      Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers.
Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

 

(a)           submits for itself and its Property
in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any
judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the
courts of the State of New York located in New York County, NY, the courts of
the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and
appellate courts from any thereof;

 

(b)           consents that any such action or proceeding
may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or
hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court
or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and
agrees not to plead or claim the same;

 

(c)           agrees that service of process in any
such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by
registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail),
postage prepaid, to the US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may
be, at its address set forth in Section 10.2 or at such other address of which
the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

 

(d)           agrees that nothing herein shall
affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by
law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and

 

(e)           waives, to the maximum extent not
prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal
action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary,
punitive or consequential damages.

 

10.13.      Acknowledgments. Each of the US
Borrower and the Canadian Borrower hereby acknowledges that:

 

(a)           it has been advised by counsel in the
negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents;

 

(b)           neither any Arranger, any Agent nor
any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to the US Borrower or
the Canadian Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Arrangers,
the Agents

 

107

 

and the Lenders, on one
hand, and the US Borrower and the Canadian Borrower, on the other hand, in
connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

 

(c)           no joint venture is created hereby or
by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions
contemplated hereby among the Arrangers, the Agents and the Lenders or among
the US Borrower, the Canadian Borrower and the Lenders.

 

10.14.      Confidentiality. Each of the Agents
and the Lenders agrees to keep confidential all non-public information provided
to it by any Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement that is designated by such
Loan Party as confidential; provided, that nothing herein shall prevent
any Agent or any Lender from disclosing any such information (a) to the
Arrangers, any Agent, any other Lender or any affiliate of any thereof, (b) to
any Participant or Assignee (each, a “Transferee”) or prospective
Transferee that agrees to comply with the provisions of this Section or
substantially equivalent provisions, (c) to any of its employees, directors,
agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors, (d) to any
financial institution that is a direct or indirect contractual counterparty in
swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (so
long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisor to such
contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section),
(e) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority having
jurisdiction over it, (f) in response to any order of any court or other
Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any Requirement
of Law, (g) in connection with any litigation or similar proceeding, (h) that
has been publicly disclosed other than in breach of this Section, (i) to the
National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or
any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information
about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with
respect to such Lender or (j) in connection with the exercise of any remedy
hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

 

10.15.      Release of Collateral and Guarantee
Obligations. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein
or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably
authorized by each Lender (without requirement of notice to or consent of any
Lender except as expressly required by Section 10.1) to take any action
requested by any Loan Party having the effect of releasing any Collateral or
guarantee obligations (i) to the extent necessary to permit consummation of any
transaction not prohibited by any Loan Document or that has been consented to
in accordance with Section 10.1 or (ii) under the circumstances described in
paragraphs (b) or (c) below.

 

(b)           At such time as the Loans, the
Reimbursement Obligations and the other obligations under the Loan Documents
(other than (i) obligations under Sections 2.19, 2.20, 2.21 and 10.5 that are
not then due and payable and demanded and (ii) obligations under or in respect
of Specified Hedge Agreements) shall have been paid in full in cash, the
Commitments have been terminated and no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding,
the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by the Security
Documents, and the Security Documents and all obligations (other than those
expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and
each Loan Party under the Security Documents shall terminate, all without
delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person.
Nevertheless, the Administrative Agent shall, if so requested by any Loan Party
at or after such termination, execute, deliver and (if necessary) acknowledge
such termination statements or releases as may be necessary or reasonably
appropriate to confirm, assure or give notice of such termination and take such
actions as may be necessary to redeliver or release all Collateral within its
control, in each case at the expense of such Loan Party.

 

(c)           Upon any Disposition of Collateral
permitted by Section 7.5 made by any Loan Party to any Person that is not a
Loan Party, such Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by

 

108

 

the Security Documents,
without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person (it
being agreed that the Disposition of the property of Direct Parent, including
Capital Stock of the US Borrower owned by Direct Parent, will not be in any
respect restricted by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except only
that any such Disposition made prior to consummation of an IPO (other than a
Disposition by Direct Parent to a Subsidiary of Direct Parent which thereupon
becomes the Direct Parent) shall constitute an Event of Default as set forth in
Section 8(j)). Nevertheless, the Administrative Agent shall, if so requested by
any Loan Party at or after such release, execute, deliver and (if necessary)
acknowledge such termination statements or releases as may be necessary or
reasonably appropriate to confirm, assure or give notice of such release and
take other such actions as may be necessary to redeliver or release all such
Collateral within its control, in each case at the expense of such Loan Party.

 

10.16.      Accounting Changes. In the event
that any “Accounting Change” (as defined below) shall occur and such change
results in a change in the method of calculation of financial covenants,
standards or terms in this Agreement, then the US Borrower and the
Administrative Agent agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such
provisions of this Agreement so as to equitably reflect such Accounting Change
with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating the US Borrower’s
financial condition shall be the same after such Accounting Change as if such
Accounting Change had not been made. Until such time as such an amendment shall
have been executed and delivered by the US Borrower, the Administrative Agent
and the Required Lenders, all financial covenants, standards and terms in this
Agreement shall continue to be calculated or construed as if such Accounting
Change had not occurred. “Accounting Change” refers to any change in
accounting principles required by the promulgation of any rule, regulation,
pronouncement or opinion by the Financial Accounting Standards Board of the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or successor thereof or, if
applicable, the SEC.

 

10.17.      Authorization to Enter Into Standstill
Letter. Each Lender and Agent (other than the Administrative Agent) hereby
(a) irrevocably authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to execute,
deliver and perform the obligations of the Administrative Agent under the
Standstill Letter and to take or omit to take any and all actions required
thereby or, in the judgment of the Administrative Agent, appropriate or
incidental thereto and (b) agrees (for the direct and enforceable benefit of
each party entitled under the Standstill Letter to enforce the obligations of
the Administrative Agent thereunder) to be bound by each and all of the
obligations of the Administrative Agent set forth in the Standstill Letter to
the same extent that the Administrative Agent is bound thereby. Each party
hereto (other than the Administrative Agent) hereby acknowledges and agrees
that, in entering into the Standstill Letter and in respect of any performance,
breach, act, omission, event or occurrence arising from or in any manner
related or incidental to the Standstill Letter or any claim or dispute based
thereon, arising therefrom or related or incidental thereto, the Administrative
Agent will be entitled to each and all of the rights, powers, privileges,
protections, immunities and indemnities provided to it under this Agreement,
including its indemnification rights under Sections 2.21, 9.7 and 10.5, and the
other Loan Documents.

 

10.18.      Delivery of Lender Addenda. Each
initial Lender may become a party to this Agreement by delivering to the
Administrative Agent a Lender Addendum duly executed by such Lender, the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent.

 

10.19.      WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL. THE US BORROWER, THE CANADIAN BORROWER, THE AGENTS AND THE LENDERS
HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION
OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY
COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

 

109

 

10.20.      Judgment Currency. (a) If, for the
purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against a Loan Party in any court in
any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such
other currency being hereinafter in this Section 10.20 referred to as the “Judgment
Currency”) an amount due under any Loan Document in any currency (the “Obligation
Currency”) other than the Judgment Currency, the conversion shall be made
at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day immediately preceding
the date of actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in
the courts of the State of New York or in the courts of any other jurisdiction
that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date, or the date
on which the judgment is given, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of
any other jurisdiction (the applicable date as of which such conversion is made
pursuant to this Section 10.20 being hereinafter in this Section 10.20 referred
to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”); and (b) if, in the case of any
proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in Section 10.20(a),
there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment
Conversion Date and the date of actual receipt of the amount due in immediately
available funds, the Loan Party shall pay such additional amount (if any, but
in any event not a lesser amount) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount
actually received in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of
exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the
Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of the
Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the rate of
exchange prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date. Any amount due from the US
Borrower or the Canadian Borrower under this Section 10.20 shall be due as a
separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any
other amounts due under or in respect of any of the Loan Documents. The term
“rate of exchange” in this Section 10.209 means the rate of exchange at which
the Administrative Agent, on the relevant date at or about 12:00 noon (New York
time), would be prepared to sell, in accordance with its normal course foreign
currency exchange practices, the Obligation Currency against the Judgment
Currency.
