Exhibit 10.1

Vail Resorts 
Management Incentive Plan 
Grades 33 & Above 

Objective 
The purpose of the Management Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) is to reinforce individual employee behaviors that contribute to the mission, values, growth and profitability of Vail Resorts, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) by: 

Rewarding and recognizing performance in one or more of the following areas: 
		
	•
	Financial - Financial results at the end of the fiscal year are compared to EBITDA targets determined at the beginning of the fiscal year. EBITDA (Earnings before Interest, Taxes and Depreciation and Amortization excluding stock based compensation) results are consolidated into various divisions of the Company and are defined in the funding section below.

		
	•
	Individual - Individual employee performance, including adherence to the Company’s mission and values.

Effective Dates 
The Plan is effective and will remain in effect until amended or terminated. The Plan Year will run concurrently with the fiscal year under which the employee is governed. 

Eligibility 
All full-time employees of the Company at grade levels 33 and above as identified in the Company’s compensation grade structures are eligible to participate in the Plan. 

Target Percentages 
The target bonus percentages for employees are determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion on a yearly basis by the end of the first quarter of each fiscal year and while the attainment of Resort, Mountain, Retail and Lodging EBITDA performance targets are substantially uncertain. 

Target Incentives 
Each employee’s target bonus incentive is calculated based on the target bonus percentage of his or her annual salary as of the last day of the measurement period the employee was classified in a Grade 33 position, except where proration is needed as defined in the proration of target incentives section. 

Funding 
The funding at the end of the fiscal year is based on the final EBITDA results or Division Goal Attainment of the Company’s business divisions and the eligible employee’s incentive target amounts as determined by the Compensation Committee and as defined in Exhibits A and B . 

Division Definitions 
EBITDA Results for each of the Company’s business divisions are defined as follows: 
		
	•
	Resort EBITDA results include the EBITDA results for all Mountain resorts, Lodging divisions and Retail divisions combined. 

		
	•
	Retail EBITDA results include all EBITDA results of the Retail division combined. 

The funding is based on the EBITDA results of the division where the employee works, the scope of his or her responsibilities and where his or her salary expense is charged. 

For Corporate, Lodging, Mountain and VRDC executives, the Plan is 100% funded based on Resort EBITDA. 

For Retail executives, the Plan is 75% funded based on Retail EBITDA and 25% funded based on Resort EBITDA. 

The maximum amount that may be earned as an award under the Plan for any Plan year by any one eligible employee shall be $4,000,000. 

Funding Variable
At each fiscal year-end, the funding will be based on the percentage of EBITDA target achieved. The schedule attached hereto as Exhibit A is used to determine the percent of the target incentive funded by Resort, Mountain, Retail and Lodging EBITDA performance. The Compensation Committee will establish the Resort, Mountain, Retail and Lodging EBITDA performance targets and corresponding funding levels and may amend Exhibit A by the end of the first quarter of each fiscal year and while the attainment of such goals is substantially uncertain. EBITDA results are rounded to the nearest whole percentage using simple rounding. 

Individual Performance Rating Variable 
For all employees excluding the Chief Executive Officer, the target incentive will be influenced based on individual performance. The Chief Executive Officer’s total bonus will be equal to, and based solely on, the funded target incentive amount. 

Individual performance for all employees participating in the Plan will be determined through the applicable fiscal year performance review process, which will be determined by the Chief Executive Officer. With the exception of promoted employees, the final performance score will determine the incentive payment with higher performing employees receiving larger rewards than their lower performing peers. For those employees promoted into a higher level position, any applicable incentive payments will be calculated by applying the Meets Expectations performance variable to the incentive target for the new position. 

Example 1 Payout: 
		
	•
	Grade 33 Corporate employee

		
	•
	$200,000 annual salary

		
	•
	Target incentive % = 42.5%

		
	•
	Target incentive $= $200,000 x 42.5% = $85,000

		
	•
	Resort EBITDA results are at 101% of target

		
	•
	Resort EBITDA funding = 107.5%

With Resort EBITDA funding 100%, funded incentive = 107.5% x $85,000 = $91,375. 

		
	•
	Individual performance rating of “Achieves Expectations” 

		
	•
	“Achieves Expectations” = 100% of funded incentive 

		
	•
	$91,375 x 100% = $91,375 payout

Example 2 Payout: 
		
	•
	Grade 33 Retail employee

		
	•
	$225,000 annual salary

		
	•
	Target incentive % = 42.5%

		
	•
	Target incentive $ = $225,000 x 42.5% = $95,625

		
	•
	Resort EBITDA results are at 101% of target 

		
	•
	Resort EBITDA funding = 107.5% 

		
	•
	Retail EBITDA results are at 102% of target 

		
	•
	Retail EBITDA funding = 115% 

Resort EBITDA funding = 25% 
Resort Funded incentive = (107.5% x 25%) x 95,625 = $25,699 
Retail EBITDA funding = 75%
Resort Funded incentive = (115% x 75%) x 95,625 = $82,477
Total Incentive = $25,699 + $82,477 = $108,176

		
	•
	Individual performance rating of “Achieves Expectations” 

		
	•
	“Exceeds Expectations” = 115% of funded incentive 

		
	•
	$108,176 x 115% = $124,402 payout

Individual performance can multiply the incentive payout by 0% to 130% of the target amount as displayed in Exhibit B. 

Proration for New Hires 
An employee hired into a position eligible for this Plan will receive a prorated incentive for the Plan Year based on the hire date and following schedule. Anyone hired after April 30 will not be eligible to receive an award in that fiscal year, except at the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee.

Proration for Internal Promotions
The proration calculation for employees who have been promoted into a plan eligible position will be based on number of days in each role and performance rating earned in each position. For the purposes of this plan, a promotion is defined as position change resulting in an increase in grade assignment and individual bonus target percentage.

Pro-Ration for Leave of Absence 
Individual incentive determinations for employees who have a paid or unpaid leave of absence (this does not include vacation) in excess of one month during the Plan Year will be prorated to reflect the time on leave. 

Plan Payouts 
Individual incentive determinations calculated in accordance with the terms of this Plan will be paid in cash or pursuant to equity awards granted under the Company’s equity compensation plan, or a combination thereof, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee, minus applicable deductions and withholding as required by law, by the close of the first quarter following the previous fiscal year end. Payouts will be rounded to the nearest whole dollar amount. 

Termination of Employment 
Incentive payments under the Plan do not vest until the date Plan payments are made. To be eligible to receive a payment, a participant must be employed by the Company on the date Plan payments are made. Employees whose employment ends prior to the payment date under the Plan for any fiscal year will not be eligible, subject to the discretion of the Compensation Committee. However, if an otherwise eligible employee is not employed as of the date of the payout under the Plan due to death or long-term disability under the Company long-term disability plan, such employee, if he or she would have otherwise received a payout under the Plan but for his or her death or disability, shall be entitled to receive a pro-rated payment for the portion of the fiscal year the employee was actively employed. 

If an employee terminates employment and is subsequently rehired, eligibility under this Plan restarts with the employee’s rehire date. 

Material Restatement of Financial Results 
In the event that the Board determines there has been a material restatement of publicly issued financial results from those previously issued to the public , the Board will review all incentive payments made to 

executive officers on the basis of having met or exceeded specific performance targets and, if such payments would have been lower had they been calculated based on such restated results, the Board will, to the extent permitted by governing law, seek to recoup for the benefit of our company such payments made in excess of the amount that would have been paid based on the restated results. This will apply to all incentive payments made during the three-year period prior to the restatement, beginning with payments earned for the 2012 fiscal year. For purposes of this policy, the term “executive officers” has the meaning given in Rule 3b-7 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the term “incentive payments” means bonuses and awards under the Plan. 

Plan Administration, Modification and Discontinuance 
This Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has authority to interpret the Plan and to make, amend, or nullify any rules and procedures deemed necessary for proper Plan administration, including, but not limited to, performance targets, results and extraordinary events. The EBITDA performance targets and corresponding funding levels shall be adjusted for acquisitions, divestitures, or board imposed unbudgeted expenses in the discretion of the Compensation Committee. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Plan payouts will be made until and unless the Compensation Committee has certified that the performance goals and all other material terms have been satisfied. The Compensation Committee has the sole discretion to modify the application of this Plan. 

Continued Employment 
The Plan is not intended to and does not give any employee the right to continued employment with the Company. The Plan does not create a contract of employment with any employee and does not alter the at-will nature of employee’s employment with the Company.

	The Borrowers may, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, (i) repay without penalty or bonus any Accommodations Outstanding under the Credit Facility; or (ii) reduce the unutilized portion of the Lenders’ Commitments under the Credit Facility, in each case, in whole or, subject to the following sentence, in part, upon the number of days’ notice to the Administrative Agent specified in Schedule 6 by a notice stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment or reduction.  In such case, the Borrowers shall pay to the applicable Lenders in accordance with such notice, the amount of such repayment or the amount by which the Accommodations Outstanding under the Credit Facility exceed the proposed reduced Commitment, as the case may be.  Each partial repayment or reduction shall be in a minimum aggregate principal amount of U.S. $1,000,000 or Cdn. $1,000,000 and in an integral multiple of U.S. $100,000 or Cdn. $100,000.

	(2)
	The Borrowers may, pursuant to this Section 2.06, prepay the amount of any Drawing under the Credit Facility by depositing with the Administrative Agent the Face Amount of such Drawing to be held by the Administrative Agent in an interest bearing account in the name of the applicable Lenders and irrevocably authorizing and directing the Administrative Agent to apply such amount on the maturity date for the relevant Drawing to the repayment of the relevant BA Instrument.  Title to the funds held in such account shall pass to the Administrative Agent (for and on behalf of the applicable Lenders) on the date of deposit of such funds with the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers hereby acknowledge and agree that they shall have no legal or beneficial interest in such funds after the date of deposit of such funds in such account.  Interest on amounts held on deposit by the Administrative Agent (at such rate as determined by the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably) shall be paid to the Borrowers on the maturity date for the relevant Drawing.

Section 2.07   Fees

		
	(1)
	The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the rateable benefit of the Lenders, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”), from the Closing Date, in the case of an initial Lender, and otherwise from the effective date specified in the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which any Eligible Assignee became a Lender, until the Maturity Date, at the rate specified in Schedule 7 (based on the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio in effect from time to time, but which in any event shall not be less than 0.5625 % until the Specified Delivery Date referred to in the definition of “Applicable Margin”) on the average daily amount of the unutilized Commitment of such Lender during such quarter (and, for greater certainty, without regard to any delay in the availability of Tranche 2 of the Credit Facility).  The 

Commitment Fee will be payable in arrears on the fifth Business Day of each of April, July, October and January and upon any termination of any Lender’s Commitment, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed over a 365 day or 366 day year, as applicable.

		
	(2)
	The Borrowers shall pay an annual administrative fee and other fees to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the Fee Letters.

Section 2.08   Payments and Accommodations under this Agreement

		
	(1)
	Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Borrower shall make any payment required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by depositing the amount of the payment to the relevant Administrative Agent’s Account for Payments not later than 1:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the date the payment is due.  The Borrower shall make each such payment (i) in Canadian Dollars, if the Accommodation was originally made in Canadian Dollars and (ii) in U.S. Dollars, if the Accommodation was originally made in U.S. Dollars. Any repayment of a LIBOR Advance not made on the last day of the relevant Interest Period shall be accompanied by payment by the applicable Borrower of any applicable Breakage Costs. The Administrative Agent shall distribute to each applicable Lender, promptly on the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment, an amount equal to the amount then due each such Lender, and if such distribution is not made on that date, the Administrative Agent shall pay interest on the amount for each day, from the date the amount is received by the Administrative Agent until the date of distribution, at the prevailing interbank rate for late payments.

		
	(2)
	Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall make Accommodations under the Credit Facility and other payments to the Borrowers under this Agreement by crediting the relevant Borrowers’ Account (or causing the relevant Borrowers’ Account to be credited) with the amount of the payment not later than 3:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the date the payment is to be made.

		
	(3)
	The Swing Line Lender shall make Swing Line Advances to the Borrowers by crediting the relevant Borrowers’ Account with the amount of such Swing Line Advance not later than 2:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the date such Swing Line Advance is to be made.

		
	(4)

Section 2.09   Application of Payments and Prepayments

		
	(1)
	Except as provided in Section 2.09(2) below, all amounts received by the Administrative Agent from or on behalf of the Borrowers and not previously applied under and pursuant to this Agreement shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as follows: (i) first, in reduction of the Borrowers’ obligation to pay any unpaid interest and any Fees which are due and owing under the Credit Documents; (ii) second, in 

reduction of the Borrowers’ obligation to pay any expenses, claims or losses referred to in Section 16.01; (iii) third, in reduction of the Borrowers’ obligation to pay any amounts due and owing on account of any unpaid principal amount of Advances which are due and owing; (iv) fourth, in reduction of the Borrowers’ obligation to pay any other unpaid Accommodations Outstanding which are due and owing; (v) fifth, in reduction of any other obligation of the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents; and (vi) sixth, to the Borrowers or such other Persons as may lawfully be entitled to or directed by the Borrowers to receive the remainder.

		
	(2)
	The proceeds received by the Administrative Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Administrative Agent of its remedies, and any other funds realized by Administrative Agent during the continuance of an Event of Default, shall be applied, subject to applicable Law, in full or in part, together with any other sums then held by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement, promptly by the Administrative Agent as follows:

		
	(a)
	First, to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses, fees, commissions and taxes of such sale, collection or other realization including compensation to the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and all expenses, liabilities, professional fees, advances made or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith and all amounts for which the Administrative Agent is entitled to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of any Credit Document, together with interest on each such amount at the highest rate then in effect under this Agreement from and after the date such amount is due, owing or unpaid until paid in full;

		
	(b)
	Second, without duplication of amounts applied pursuant to clause (a) above, to the payment in full in cash of (i) all accrued and unpaid interest under this Agreement and the outstanding principal amount of all Advances and Accommodations Outstanding, (ii) all obligations owing under the Eligible Hedging Arrangements with Hedge Lenders and Other Secured Agreements, and (iii) all other obligations under the Credit Documents, in each case equally and rateably in accordance with the respective amounts thereof then due and owing; and

		
	(c)
	Third, the balance, if any, to the person lawfully entitled thereto (including the applicable Loan Party or its successors or assigns) or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

		
	(3)
	The Borrowers shall give to the Administrative Agent notice in writing of any mandatory repayment required to be made under the Credit Facility pursuant to Section 2.05 at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date of such repayment and any voluntary repayment to be made under the Credit Facility pursuant to Section 2.06 at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such repayment. Each such notice (a “Repayment Notice”) shall be substantially in the form of Schedule 5, shall be irrevocable and binding upon the Borrowers once given by the applicable Borrower to the Administrative Agent and shall specify the date of such repayment and (if applicable) provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such repayment. 

The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of the contents of the applicable Borrower’s repayment notice and of such Lender’s pro rata share of the repayment. 

Section 2.10   Computations of Interest and Fees

		
	(1)
	All computations of interest shall be made by the Administrative Agent taking into account the actual number of days occurring in the period for which such interest is payable pursuant to Section 3.05, and (i) if based on the Canadian Prime Rate, or the U.S. Base Rate, a year of 365 days or 366 days, as the case may be; or (ii) if based on the LIBOR Rate, on the basis of a year of 360 days.

		
	(2)
	All computations of Fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, taking into account the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such fees are payable. 

		
	(3)
	For purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), (i) whenever any interest or Fee under this Agreement is calculated using a rate based on a number of days less than a full year, such rate determined pursuant to such calculation, when expressed as an annual rate, is equivalent to (x) the applicable rate, (y) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for which such interest or fee is payable (or compounded) ends, and (z) divided by the number of days comprising such calculation basis; (ii) the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement; and (iii) the rates of interest stipulated in this Agreement are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.

		
	(4)
	If any provision of this Agreement or of any of the other Credit Documents would obligate a Loan Party to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by such Lender of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)) then, notwithstanding such provisions, such amount or rate shall be deemed to 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 such Lender of interest at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, as follows: (1) firstly, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid to such Lender under the applicable Credit Document, and (2) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to such Lender which would constitute “interest” for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if a Lender shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by that section of the Criminal Code (Canada), the Loan Party paying the amount shall be entitled, by notice in writing to such Lender, to obtain reimbursement from such Lender in an amount equal to such excess and, pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by such Lender to the Loan Party.  Any amount or rate of interest referred to in this Section 2.10(4) shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term that the applicable Accommodations Outstanding 

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 date of this Agreement to the Maturity Date and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive for the purposes of such determination.

Section 2.11   Extension of the Credit Facility

At any time between 60 and 90 days prior to any anniversary of the Closing Date, provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, request that the Maturity Date be extended for a further period not to exceed one year from the then applicable Maturity Date. The Administrative Agent shall forthwith notify each Lender of such request. Each Lender may, in its sole discretion, approve or decline such request. If a Lender fails to respond within 30 days of such notice from the Administrative Agent, it shall be deemed to have declined the extension. If the Majority Lenders confirm to the Administrative Agent in writing, not less than 30 days prior to the applicable anniversary date, that such extension is acceptable to them, then the Maturity Date shall be so extended in respect only of the Lenders who have approved the request for extension and the Administrative Agent shall so advise the Borrowers. If a Lender (the “Declining Lender”) indicates in writing to the Administrative Agent that the proposed extension is unacceptable (or is deemed to have declined the extension), the Administrative Agent shall so advise the Borrowers and the Borrowers shall be entitled, for a period up to, and including, the date which is 90 days prior to the Maturity Date as in effect in respect of such Lender, to propose one or more banks (collectively, the “Replacement Lender”) which, if not a Lender, shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent (which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld), which Replacement Lender would be prepared to accept an assignment of the Accommodations Outstanding and Commitment under the Credit Facility of the Declining Lender in accordance with Section 17.01(2) hereof and to agree to the extension of the Maturity Date. If, within that time period, the Borrowers are able to propose such Replacement Lender and, if applicable, the Replacement Lender is so acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the Declining Lender shall no later than 30 days prior to the Maturity Date as in effect in respect of such Lender, assign its rights and obligations hereunder to the Replacement Lender in accordance with Section 17.01(2) hereof for a price equal to the principal amount of the Accommodations Outstanding under the Credit Facility of that Declining Lender then outstanding plus accrued interest on the principal amount of and all other amounts payable in respect of all Accommodations Outstanding of, and all fees and all other amounts payable hereunder under the Credit Facility to, that Declining Lender to the date of such assignment (or such lesser amount as the Declining Lender and the Replacement Lender may agree), payable in cash against receipt of such assignment. Upon the assignment of the Accommodations of a Declining Lender to a Replacement Lender having occurred in accordance with this Section 2.11, the Maturity Date of the Credit Facility shall be deemed to have been extended in respect of such Replacement Lender in the manner which would have occurred had such Declining Lender originally confirmed the acceptability of the extension. If no assignment of the Accommodations of a Declining Lender occurs in accordance with this Section 2.11, then the Maturity Date of the Credit Facility in respect the Accommodations of such Declining Lender under the Credit Facility shall not be extended and the Accommodations Outstanding to such Declining Lender under the Credit Facility shall be due and payable in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement on such date and, upon such payment, each such Declining Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder and such Lender’s Commitment shall be terminated and the Aggregate Commitment reduced accordingly. If the Majority Lenders do 

not approve the extension request or if no request for an extension of the Maturity Date is received from the Borrowers, the applicable Maturity Date shall not be extended and all amounts then outstanding under the Credit Facility shall be due and payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders on the such date.
Section 2.12     Incremental Commitments

		
	(1)
	The Borrowers may at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent (an “Incremental Commitment Request”), request one or more increases in the amount of the Aggregate Commitment (a “Commitment Increase”) under the Credit Facility (any such new Commitments, the “Incremental Commitments”), whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders.

		
	(2)
	On any Incremental Facility Closing Date on which any Incremental Commitments are effected through the establishment of any Commitment Increase, subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions in this Section 2.12, (i) each Incremental Lender shall make its new Commitment available rateably to the Borrowers in an amount equal to its Incremental Commitment and (ii) each Incremental Lender shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the Incremental Commitment and the Accommodations made pursuant thereto.

		
	(3)
	Each Incremental Loan Request from the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall set forth the requested amount of the relevant Incremental Commitments.  Incremental Commitments may be provided by any existing Lender (but no existing Lender will have an obligation to make any Incremental Commitment), or by any other bank or other financial institution (any such other bank or other financial institution being called an “Additional Lender”, and each such existing Lender or Additional Lender, the “Incremental Lenders”); provided that the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to such Lender or Additional Lender providing such Commitment Increases to the extent such consent, if any, would be required under Section 17.01(2) for an assignment of Commitments or Accommodations Outstanding, as applicable, to such Lender or Additional Lender.

		
	(4)
	The terms of such Incremental Commitments shall be identical to the Commitments. The effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment, and the Incremental Commitments thereunder, shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof (the “Incremental Facility Closing Date”) of each of the following conditions:

		
	(a)
	no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would exist after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments;

		
	(b)
	each Incremental Commitment shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than Cdn. $5,000,000 or U.S. $5,000,000, as applicable, and shall be in an increment of Cdn. $1,000,000 or U.S. $1,000,000, as applicable (provided that such amount may be less than Cdn. $5,000,000 or 

U.S. $5,000,000, as applicable, if such amount represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth in clause (c) of this Section 2.12(4));

		
	(c)
	the aggregate amount of the Incremental Commitments shall not exceed Cdn. $75,000,000;

		
	(d)
	to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of (A) customary legal opinions, board resolutions and officers’ certificates substantially consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date and (B) reaffirmation agreements and/or such amendments to the Credit Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in order to ensure that such incremental Debt is provided with the benefit of the applicable Credit Documents; and

		
	(e)
	such other conditions as the Borrowers, each Incremental Lender providing such Incremental Commitments and the Administrative Agent shall agree.

		
	(5)
	Incremental Commitments shall become Commitments (or in the case of an Incremental Commitment to be provided by an existing Lender, an increase in such Lender’s applicable Commitment) under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Credit Documents, executed by the Borrowers, the other Loan Parties, each Incremental Lender providing such Commitments and the Administrative Agent. The Incremental Amendment may effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.12(5), without the consent of any Lender or any other Loan Party.

		
	(6)
	Upon any Incremental Facility Closing Date on which Incremental Commitments are effected, (a) each of the existing Lenders shall assign to each of the Incremental Lenders, and each of the Incremental Lenders shall purchase from each of the existing Lenders, at the principal amount thereof, such interests in the Accommodations Outstanding on such Incremental Facility Closing Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Accommodations  will be held by existing Lenders and Incremental Lenders ratably in accordance with their Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such Incremental Commitments, (b) each Incremental Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Commitment and each Accommodation made thereunder shall be deemed, for all purposes, an Accommodation and (c) each Incremental Lender shall become a Lender with respect to the Incremental Commitments and all matters relating thereto.  The parties hereto hereby agree that the minimum borrowing and repayment requirements in Article 3 of this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

Section 2.13    Security

		
	(1)
	The Borrowers shall provide or cause to be provided by the Guarantors or the Limited Recourse Guarantors, as applicable, to the Administrative Agent, for and on behalf of the Lenders and the Hedge Lenders and Service Lenders, as continuing collateral 

security for the present and future indebtedness and liability of the Borrowers, the Guarantors and the Limited Recourse Guarantors hereunder and under the other Credit Documents to which they respectively are a party to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the following security (the ”Security”), in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, together with any relevant required power of attorney, registrations, filings and other supporting documentation deemed necessary by the Administrative Agent or its counsel to perfect the same or otherwise in respect thereof:

The Loan Parties acknowledge that the Credit Documents have been prepared on the basis of Law in effect on the Closing Date, and that changes to Law may require the execution and delivery of different forms of documentation, and accordingly the Administrative Agent shall have the right 

(acting reasonably) to require that the Credit Documents be amended, supplemented or replaced (and the Borrowers shall, or shall cause the applicable Loan Party or Limited Recourse Guarantor to duly authorize, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent any such amendment, supplement or replacement reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent with respect to any of the Credit Documents) within 30 days of written request therefor (i) to reflect any change in Law, whether arising as a result of statutory amendments, court decisions or otherwise; (ii) to facilitate the creation and registration of appropriate forms of security in applicable jurisdictions; or (iii) to confer upon the Administrative Agent Encumbrances similar to the Encumbrances created or intended to be created by the Credit Documents.

	(1)
	Each Advance shall initially be the Type of Advance specified in the applicable Borrowing Notice and shall bear interest at the rate applicable to such Type of Advance (determined as provided in Section 3.05) until (i) in the case of a LIBOR Advance, the end of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto as specified in the applicable Borrowing Notice, (ii) in the case of a Canadian Prime Rate Advance or U.S. Base Rate Advance, the date on which the relevant Type of Advance is repaid in full or is converted to another Type of Advance pursuant to and to the extent permitted by Section 3.03(2).

	If a Lender determines acting reasonably in good faith and notifies the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing  that (i) by reason of circumstances affecting financial markets inside or outside Canada, deposits of U.S. Dollars are unavailable to such Lender; (ii) adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided in the definition of LIBOR Rate; (iii) the making or continuation of any LIBOR Advances has been made impracticable (x) by the occurrence of a contingency (other than a mere increase in rates payable by such Lender to fund the Advances or a decrease in the creditworthiness of such Lender) which adversely affects the funding of the Credit Facility at any interest rate computed on the basis of the LIBOR Rate, or (y) by reason of a change since the date of this Agreement in any Law or in the interpretation thereof by any Governmental Authority which affects such Lender or any relevant financial market and which results in the LIBOR Rate no longer representing the effective cost to such Lender of deposits in such market; or (iv) any change to any Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority, has made it unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain or to give effect to its obligations in respect of LIBOR Advances as contemplated hereby, then, 

		
	(a)
	the right of the Borrower to select LIBOR Advances, as the case may be, from such Lender shall be suspended until such Lender determines acting reasonably in good faith that the circumstances causing the suspension no longer exist and such Lender so notifies the Administrative Agent;

		
	(b)
	if any affected LIBOR Advance is not yet outstanding, any applicable Borrowing Notice shall be suspended until such Lender determines acting reasonably in good faith that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and such Lender so notifies the Administrative Agent; and

		
	(c)
	if any LIBOR Advance is already outstanding at any time when the right of the Borrower to select LIBOR Advances is suspended, it and all other LIBOR Advances in the same Borrowing with respect to such Lender shall (subject to the Borrower having the right to select the relevant Type of Advance at such time) become a U.S. Base Rate Advance on the last day of the then current Interest Period or applicable thereto (or on such earlier date as may be required to comply with any Law).

		
	(2)
	The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of the suspension of its right to request a LIBOR Advance from such Lender and of the termination of any such suspension.  Upon notice from the Administrative Agent of the suspension of the right to request a LIBOR Advance from such Lender, the Borrower may (i) either replace such Lender with a substitute Lender or Lenders, in which event such Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption in favour of such substitute Lender or Lenders pursuant to Section 17.01(2)(f) in respect of the whole of its Commitments; or (ii) prepay all Accommodations Outstanding of such affected Lender and thereupon reduce such affected Lender’s Commitments to nil, all without affecting the Commitments of any other Lenders.

Section 3.06    Swing Line Advances

		
	(1)
	Subject to payment of the customary fees and charges of the Swing Line Lender for operation of the applicable accounts, the Swing Line Lender shall provide the Borrowers with a Canadian Dollar and a U.S. Dollar account at the main branch in 

Vancouver, British Columbia of the Swing Line Lender.  At any time after the Second Lien Notes Repayment Date that the Borrowers would be entitled to obtain Advances under the Credit Facility, the Borrowers shall be entitled to draw cheques or make other debit transactions in Canadian Dollars and US Dollars on its accounts with the Swing Line Lender.  The amount of any overdraft in the accounts of the Borrowers at the end of each Business Day, subject to appropriate adjustments, shall be deemed to be a Canadian Prime Rate Advance or a U.S. Base Rate Advance, as applicable to the Borrowers.  The credit balance in such accounts at the end of each Business Day, subject to appropriate adjustments, shall be applied by the Swing Line Lender as a repayment of outstanding Swing Line Advances and such accounts shall be reduced accordingly.  Except as otherwise specified, Swing Line Advances shall be subject to all the provisions of this Agreement applicable to Canadian Prime Rate Advances or U.S. Base Rate Advances under the Credit Facility.

		
	(2)
	The aggregate outstanding amount of all Swing Line Advances at any time, together with all Accommodations Outstanding by way of Documentary Credits, shall not exceed the Swing Line Commitment of the Swing Line Lender. No Swing Line Advance or Issue of a Documentary Credit shall be made by the Swing Line Lender if it has received notice that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

		
	(3)
	Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the minimum notice requirements and minimum amounts and required multiples for Advances and repayments hereunder shall not apply to Swing Line Advances.

		
	(4)
	The Administrative Agent shall on the last Business Day of each week, and the Swing Line Lender may, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, request on behalf of the Borrowers (and the Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), upon notice to the Administrative Agent by the Swing Line Lender no later than 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on the applicable date, in either case, that each Lender make a Canadian Prime Rate Advance or U.S. Base Rate Advance, as applicable, in an amount equal to such Lender’s pro rata share of the amount of Swing Line Advances made by the Swing Line Lender then outstanding.  Such request shall be deemed to be a Borrowing Notice for purposes hereof and shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.02(1) without regard solely to the minimum amounts specified therein but subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6.03 (except that the Borrowers shall not be deemed to have made any representations and warranties), and the Administrative Agent shall apply the proceeds of any such Advances in repayment of the Swing Line Advances then outstanding.

		
	(5)
	If for any reason any Swing Line Advance cannot be refinanced by a Borrowing as contemplated by Section 3.06(4), the request for Canadian Prime Rate Advances or U.S. Base Rate Advances submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth in Section 3.06(4) shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Advance and each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 3.06(4) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

		
	(6)
	If and to the extent that any Lender shall not have made the amount of its pro rata share of such Swing Line Advance available to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.06(4), such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of the applicable Borrowing Notice delivered by the Swing Line Lender until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swing Line Lender in accordance with prevailing banking industry practice for interbank compensation.

Each Lender’s obligation to make Canadian Prime Rate Advances or U.S. Base Rate Advances, or to purchase and fund risk participations in a Swing Line Advance pursuant to this Section 3.06, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrowers or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, (iii) whether any of the conditions specified in Article 6 are then satisfied; or (iv) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. No funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrowers to repay Swing Line Advances, together with interest as provided herein.
ARTICLE 4
BANKERS’ ACCEPTANCES

Section 4.01    Acceptances and Drafts

		
	(1)
	Each Lender, individually and not jointly and severally (or solidarily), agrees, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement and from time to time on any Business Day prior to the Maturity Date (i) in the case of a Lender which is willing and able to accept Drafts in the form of acceptances (“Bankers’ Acceptances”), to accept Drafts and to purchase such Bankers’ Acceptances in accordance with Section 4.03(2); and (ii) in the case of a Lender which is unwilling or unable to accept Drafts, to purchase completed Drafts (which have not and will not be accepted by the Lender or any other Lender) in accordance with Section 4.03(2).

		
	(2)
	Each Drawing shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $100,000 and shall consist of the acceptance and purchase of Bankers’ Acceptances or the purchase of Drafts on the same day, in each case for the Drawing Price, effected or arranged by the applicable Lenders in accordance with Section 4.03 and their respective Lender’s Commitment.

		
	(3)
	If the Administrative Agent determines that the Bankers’ Acceptances to be accepted and purchased or Drafts to be purchased on any Drawing (upon a conversion or otherwise) will not be accepted and purchased rateably by the applicable Lenders (or any of their respective Participants) in accordance with Section 4.01(2) and Section 4.03, then the requested Face Amount of Bankers’ Acceptances and Drafts shall be increased or reduced to the nearest whole multiple of $1,000 as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion determines will permit rateable sharing and, if reduced, the amount by which the requested Face Amount shall have been so reduced shall be converted or continued, as the case may be, as a Canadian Prime Rate Advance under the Credit Facility  to be made contemporaneously with the Drawing.

Section 4.02    Form of Drafts

Each Draft presented by a Borrower shall (i) be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $100,000; (ii) be dated the date of the Drawing, and (iii) mature and be payable by the applicable Borrower (in common with all other Drafts presented in connection with such Drawing) on a Business Day which occurs, at the election of such Borrower, approximately one, two, three months or, subject to availability, six months after the Drawing Date and on or prior to the Maturity Date.
Section 4.03    Procedure for Drawing

		
	(1)
	Each Drawing shall be made on notice (a “Drawing Notice”) given by a Borrower to the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the number of days’ notice specified in Schedule 6.  Each Drawing Notice shall be in substantially the form of Schedule 3, shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrowers once given by the applicable Borrower to the Administrative Agent and shall specify (i) the requested Drawing Date; (ii) the aggregate Face Amount of Drafts to be accepted and purchased (or purchased, as the case may be); and (iii) the contract maturity date for the Drafts; and (iv) prior to the Second Lien Notes Repayment Date, the Tranche under which such Drawing is requested.

		
	(2)
	Not later than 2:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on an applicable Drawing Date, each Lender shall complete one or more Drafts in accordance with the Drawing Notice and either (i) accept the Drafts and purchase the Bankers’ Acceptances thereby created for the Drawing Price; or (ii) purchase such Drafts for the Drawing Price, and, in each case, pay to the Administrative Agent the Drawing Proceeds in respect of such Bankers’ Acceptance or Draft, as the case may be.  Upon receipt of the Drawing Proceeds and upon fulfilment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article 6, the Administrative Agent shall make funds available to the applicable Borrower in accordance with Article 2.

		
	(3)
	Each Borrower shall, at the request of any Lender which has purchased a Draft in accordance with Section 4.01(1)(ii), issue one or more non-interest bearing promissory notes (in form and substance acceptable to the applicable Borrower and such Lender) (each a “BA Equivalent Note”) dated as of the same date, payable on the same date and in the same Face Amount as, and in exchange for, such Draft.

		
	(4)
	Bankers’ Acceptances purchased by a Lender or Participant may be held by it for its own account until the contract maturity date or sold by it at any time prior to that date in any relevant Canadian market in such Person’s sole discretion.

Section 4.04    Presigned Draft Forms

		
	(1)
	Subject to paragraph (2) of this Section 4.04, in order to enable the Lenders to accept and purchase Bankers’ Acceptances or complete Drafts in the manner specified in this Article 4, each Borrower shall deliver to each Lender or the Administrative Agent such number of Drafts as it may reasonably request, duly signed on behalf of such Borrower.  Each Lender hereby indemnifies each Borrower against any loss or 

improper use thereof by such Lender or its agents, will exercise and cause its agents to exercise such care in the custody and safekeeping of Drafts as it would exercise in the custody and safekeeping of similar property owned by it and will, upon request by the Borrowers, promptly advise the Borrowers of the number and designations, if any, of uncompleted Drafts held by it as agent for the Borrowers.  The signature of any Responsible Officer of a Borrower on a Draft may be mechanically reproduced and any BA Instrument bearing a facsimile signature shall be binding upon such Borrower as if it had been manually signed.  Even if the individuals whose manual or facsimile signature appears on any BA Instrument no longer hold office at the date of its acceptance by the applicable Lender or at any time after such date, any BA Instrument so signed shall be valid and binding upon such Borrower.  No Lender shall be liable for its failure to accept a Draft as required hereby if the cause of such failure is, in whole or in part, due to the failure of the applicable Borrower to provide Drafts to such Lender on a timely basis.

		
	(2)
	Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints each applicable Lender as its attorney to sign and endorse on its behalf, manually or by facsimile or mechanical signature, any BA Instrument necessary to enable each such Lender to make Drawings in the manner specified in this Article 4.  All BA Instruments signed or endorsed on a Borrower’s behalf by a Lender and any rounding by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 4.01(3) shall be binding on such Borrower, all as if duly signed or endorsed by such Borrower.  Each Lender shall (i) maintain a record with respect to any BA Instrument completed in accordance with this Section 4.04(2), voided by it for any reason, accepted and purchased or purchased or, in the case of a BA Instrument, exchanged for another BA Instrument by it pursuant to this Section 4.04, and cancelled at its respective maturity; and (ii) retain such records in the manner and for the statutory periods provided by Laws which apply to such Lender and make such records available to the Borrowers acting reasonably.  On request by a Borrower, the applicable Lender shall cancel and return to the possession of such Borrower all BA Instruments which have been pre-signed or pre-endorsed on behalf of such Borrower and which are held by such Lender and are not required to make Drawings in accordance with this Article 4.

Section 4.05    Payment, Conversion or Rollover of BA Instruments

		
	(1)
	Upon the maturity of a BA Instrument, the applicable Borrower may:

		
	(i)
	elect to issue a replacement BA Instrument or elect to have all or a portion of the Face Amount of the BA Instrument converted to a Canadian Prime Rate Advance, in each case by giving a Rollover/Conversion Notice in accordance with Section 3.03. Each such election shall be made on the number of days’ prior notice specified in Schedule 6 given, in each case, not later than 1:00p.m. (Toronto time) by the applicable Borrower to the Administrative Agent; or 

		
	(ii)
	pay, on or before 1:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the maturity date for the BA Instrument, an amount in Canadian Dollars equal to the Face Amount of the BA Instrument (notwithstanding that a Lender may be the holder of it at maturity).  Any such payment shall satisfy the applicable Borrower’s obligations under the BA Instrument to which it relates and (in the case of any Draft accepted by any Lender or Participant) such relevant Lender or 

Participant shall then be solely responsible for the payment of the BA Instrument.

		
	(2)
	If the applicable Borrower fails to pay any BA Instrument when due or issue a replacement in the Face Amount of such BA Instrument pursuant to Section 4.05(1), the unpaid amount due and payable shall be converted to a Canadian Prime Rate Advance made by the Lenders rateably and shall bear interest calculated and payable as provided in Article 3.  This conversion shall occur as of the due date and without any necessity for the applicable Borrower to give a Borrowing Notice.

		
	(3)
	If, by reason of circumstances affecting the money market generally, determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent acting reasonably and in respect of which the Administrative Agent shall have given notice to the Borrowers of the occurrence and particulars thereof, there is no market for Bankers’ Acceptances, (i) the right to request a Drawing shall be suspended until the circumstances causing a suspension no longer exist; and (ii) any Drawing Notice which is outstanding shall be deemed to be a Borrowing Notice requesting a Borrowing comprised of Advances.

		
	(4)
	The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers of the suspension of the right to request a Drawing and of the termination of any such suspension.

ARTICLE 5
DOCUMENTARY CREDITS

Section 5.01   Documentary Credits

		
	(1)

Upon the issuance of any Documentary Credit by the Swing Line Lender, each Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Documentary Credits in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Credit Facility times the principal amount of such Documentary Credits upon notice from the Swing Line Lender.

		
	(2)
	Schedule 11 identifies the Documentary Credits outstanding under the Existing Credit Facilities at the date hereof and issued by Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce as the issuing bank (the “Existing Documentary Credits”).  The Existing Documentary Credits shall be deemed to be Documentary Credits issued and outstanding hereunder as and from the date hereof, until such time as there is a drawing under the Existing Documentary Credits, or the Existing Documentary Credits are returned to Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, expire by their terms or Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce is otherwise released from any further obligations thereunder. For so long as they remain outstanding, (i) the Existing Documentary Credits will be deemed to be Accommodations Outstanding which correspondingly reduce availability under the Swing Line Commitment and the available Commitment of Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, (ii) the obligations thereunder will constitute Guaranteed Obligations and will be secured by the Security, and (iii) Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce 

will be deemed to be entitled to the benefits of (and subject to with the corresponding obligations under) Article 5 hereunder as if it were an issuer of Documentary Credits under the Swing Line Commitment. 

		
	(3)
	No Existing Documentary Credit will be renewed, extended or reissued with Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce and as and from the date hereof all Documentary Credits under the Credit Facility shall be issued solely by the Swing Line Lender.  Until the Second Lien Notes Repayment Date, the only Documentary Credits which may be issued hereunder shall be Documentary Credits issued in replacement of Existing Documentary Credits or issued after expiration or cancellation of one more Existing Documentary Credits (and having no greater aggregate face amount than the Existing Documentary Credits so replaced, expired or cancelled).

Section 5.02   Issue Notice

Each Issue shall be made on notice (an “Issue Notice”) given by a Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender not later than 1:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the number of days’ notice specified in Schedule 6.  The Issue Notice shall be in substantially the form of Schedule 4, shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrowers once given by the applicable Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender, and shall specify (i) the requested date of Issue (the “Issue Date”); (ii) the type of Documentary Credit; (iii) the Face Amount and currency of the Documentary Credit; (iv) the expiration date of the Documentary Credit; and (v) the name and address of the Beneficiary. 
Section 5.03   Form of Documentary Credits

Each Documentary Credit shall (i) be dated the Issue Date; (ii) have an expiration date on a Business Day which occurs not later than the earlier of (x) twelve months, from the Issue Date, and (y) the fifth Business Day prior to the Maturity Date; provided that any such Documentary Credit may provide for automatic renewal thereof for any stated period or periods of up to twelve months in duration in the absence of a timely notice of termination by the issuer of such Documentary Credit, but in any event not later than the Maturity Date unless cash collateralized in the manner set out in Section 5.08(1); (iii) comply with the definition of Documentary Credit; and (iv) be on the standard documentary forms required by the Swing Line Lender.
Section 5.04   Documentary Credit Reports

The Swing Line Lender shall, on the date of each issuance, amendment and drawing of a Documentary Credit by it, give the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers written notice of the issuance, amendment or drawing, as applicable, of such Documentary Credit, accompanied by a copy of the Documentary Credit or Documentary Credits issued, amended or drawn. 
Section 5.05   Procedure for Issuance of Documentary Credits

		
	(1)
	Not later than 12:00 p.m. (local time at the place of Issue) on an applicable Issue Date, the Swing Line Lender will complete and issue an appropriate type of Documentary Credit (i) dated the Issue Date; (ii) in favour of the Beneficiary; (iii) in a Face Amount and currency equal to the amount referred to in Section 5.02; and (iv) with the maturity date as specified by the applicable Borrower in its Issue Notice.

		
	(2)
	No Documentary Credit shall require payment against a conforming draft to be made thereunder on the same Business Day upon which such draft is presented, if such presentation is made after 1:00 p.m. (local time at the place of presentation) on such Business Day.

		
	(3)
	Prior to the Issue Date, the applicable Borrower shall specify a precise description of the documents and the verbatim text of any certificates or the form of any documents to be presented by the Beneficiary which, if presented by the Beneficiary, would require the Swing Line Lender to make payment under the Documentary Credit.  The Swing Line Lender may, before the issue of the Documentary Credit and in consultation with the applicable Borrower, require changes in any such document or certificate.

Section 5.06   Payments of Amounts Drawn

		
	(1)
	Within one Business Day following the date of any drawing under a Documentary Credit, the applicable Borrower shall pay to the Swing Line Lender an amount in same day funds equal to the amount so drawn in the currency in which the Documentary Credit is payable.

		
	(2)
	If the applicable Borrower fails to pay to the Swing Line Lender an amount, in same day funds, equal to the amount of such drawing, then the Swing Line Lender shall be deemed to have made a Swing Line Advance to the applicable Borrower (in Canadian Dollars, in the case of a Documentary Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars, and in US Dollars, in the case of a Documentary Credit denominated in U.S. Dollars) in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. 

		
	(3)
	With respect to Swing Line Advances deemed to be made pursuant to Section 5.06(2), the applicable interest rate and Applicable Margin for such advances shall be applied until such advances are repaid in full.

		
	(4)
	All Swing Line Advances deemed made pursuant to Section 5.06(2) shall be refinanced, with other Swing Line Advances, by a Borrowing in accordance with Section 3.06(4). If for any reason any such deemed Swing Line Advance cannot be refinanced by a Borrowing as contemplated by Section 3.06(4), the provisions of Section 3.06(5) regarding participation by each Lender in such Swing Line Advance shall be applicable thereto.

		
	(5)
	Each Lender shall be required to make the Advances referred to in Section 5.06(4) notwithstanding (i) the amount of the Advance may not comply with the minimum amount required for Borrowings hereunder; (ii) whether any conditions specified in Article 6 are then satisfied; (iii) whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; (iv) the date of such Advance; (v) any reduction in the Aggregate Commitment; and (vi) whether the Aggregate Commitment has been, or, after the making of such Advance, will be, exceeded.

Section 5.07    Risk of Documentary Credits

		
	(1)
	In determining whether to pay under a Documentary Credit, the Swing Line Lender shall be responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under the Documentary Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of the Documentary Credit.

		
	(2)
	The reimbursement obligation of the applicable Borrower under any Documentary Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of a Documentary Credit; (ii) the existence of any claim, set off, defence or other right which any Person may have at any time against a Beneficiary, the Swing Line Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with the Credit Documents and the transactions contemplated therein or any other transaction (including any underlying transaction between the applicable Borrower and a Beneficiary); (iii) any certificate or other document presented with a Documentary Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid or any statement in it being untrue or inaccurate; (iv) the existence of any act or omission or any misuse of, a Documentary Credit or misapplication of proceeds by the applicable Beneficiary, including any fraud in any certificate or other document presented with a Documentary Credit unless, with respect to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.07(2), before payment of a Documentary Credit, (x) the applicable Borrower has delivered to the Swing Line Lender a written notice of the fraud together with a written request that it refuse to honour such drawing, (y) the fraud by the Beneficiary has been established to the knowledge of the Swing Line Lender so as to make the fraud clear or obvious to the Swing Line Lender, and (z) in the case of fraud in the underlying transaction between the applicable Borrower and the Beneficiary, the fraud is of such character as to make the demand for payment by the Beneficiary under the Documentary Credit a fraudulent one; or (v) the existence of a Default or Event of Default.

		
	(3)
	The Swing Line Lender shall not be responsible for (i) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Documentary Credit or the rights or benefits under it or proceeds of it, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (ii) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages by mail, telecopy or otherwise; (iii) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (iv) any loss or delay in the transmission of any document required in order to make a drawing; and (v) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Swing Line Lender, including the acts or omissions, whether rightful or wrongful, of any Governmental Authority.  None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any of the Swing Line Lenders’ rights or powers under this Agreement. Any action taken or omitted by the Swing Line Lender under or in connection with any Documentary Credit or the related certificates, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put the Swing Line Lender under any resulting liability to the applicable Borrower, provided that the Swing Line Lender acts in accordance with the standards of reasonable care specified in the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (2007 Revision), ICC Publication 600 (or any replacement publication) or the International Standby Practices ISP98 (ICC Publication No. 590 or later version), as applicable.

	(b)
	the earlier of (i) the date on which either (x) the original counterpart of the Documentary Credit is returned to the Swing Line Lender for cancellation, or (y) the Swing Line Lender is released by the Beneficiary from any further obligations, and (ii) the expiry (to the extent permitted by any Law) of the Documentary Credit,

pay to the applicable Borrower an amount equal to the amount by which the amount paid to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 5.08(1) exceeds the amounts paid by the Swing Line Lender under the Documentary Credit.

ARTICLE 10
YIELD PROTECTION

10.01   Increased Costs.

		
	(1)
	Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

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

		
	(b)
	subject any Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Accommodations made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof, except for (i) Indemnified Taxes covered by Section 10.02 and (ii) the imposition, or any change in the rate, of any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender; or

		
	(c)
	impose on any Lender or the London interbank market for the relevant currency any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Accommodations made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Accommodation (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Accommodation), or to increase the cost to such Lender, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then upon request of such Lender, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
		
	(2)
	Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment of such Lender or the Accommodations made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or its holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of its holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then upon demand, the Borrowers will  pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will reasonably compensate such Lender or its holding company for any such reduction suffered.

		
	(3)
	Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (1) or (2) of this Section (“Additional Compensation”), including a description of the event by reason of which it believes it is entitled to such compensation, and supplying reasonable supporting evidence (including, in the event of a Change in Law, a photocopy of the Law evidencing such change) and reasonable detail of the basis of calculation of the amount or amounts, and delivered to the Borrowers shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.  In the event the Lender subsequently recovers all or part of the Additional Compensation paid by the Borrowers, it shall promptly repay an equal amount to the Borrowers.  The obligation to pay such Additional Compensation for subsequent periods will continue until the earlier of termination of the Accommodation or the Commitment affected by the Change in Law, change in capital requirement or the lapse or cessation of the Change in Law giving rise to the initial Additional Compensation.  A Lender shall make reasonable efforts to limit the incidence of any such Additional Compensation and seek recovery for the account of the Borrowers upon the Borrowers’ request at the Borrowers’ expense, provided such Lender in its reasonable determination suffers no appreciable economic, legal, regulatory or other disadvantage.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, a Lender shall only be entitled to rely upon the provisions of this Section 10.01 if and for so long as it is not treating the Borrowers in any materially different or in any less favourable manner than is applicable to any other customers of such Lender, where such other customers are bound by similar provisions to the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.01 and, in any event, in respect of a period not exceeding 90 days prior the delivery of notice in respect of any Change in Law, unless such Change in Law is retroactive or is retroactive in effect.

		
	(4)
	Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, except that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 90 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor, unless the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, in which case the 90-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

Section 10.02   Taxes

		
	(1)
	Payments Subject to Taxes.  If any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or any Lender is required by Law to deduct or pay any Indemnified Taxes in respect of any payment by or on account of any obligation of a Loan Party hereunder or under any other Credit Document, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased by that Loan Party when payable as necessary so that after making or allowing for all required deductions and payments (including deductions and payments applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal (which for the purposes of this Agreement, shall be treated as additional interest) to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or payments been required, (ii) the Loan Party shall make any such deductions required to be made by it under Law and (iii) the Loan Party shall timely pay the full amount required to be deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Law.

		
	(2)
	Payment of other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (i) above, the Borrowers shall, to the extent that such Tax is payable by such Borrower, timely pay any stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise, intangible, mortgage, recording, or property taxes, charges or similar levies arising from any payment made hereunder or under any other Credit Document or from the execution, delivery, registration or enforcement of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Credit Document.

		
	(3)
	Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 30 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (except to the extent that such penalties, interest and expenses arise from gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such Lender), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  In the event the Administrative Agent or a Lender subsequently recovers by obtaining a refund, credit or otherwise, all or part of the payment made under this Section paid by the Borrowers, it shall promptly repay an equal amount (including any interest paid 

by the Governmental Authority) to the Borrowers.  The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall make reasonable efforts to limit the incidence of any payments under this Section and seek recovery for the account of the Borrowers upon the Borrowers’ request at the Borrowers’ expense, provided the Administrative Agent or such Lender, in its reasonable determination, suffers no appreciable economic, legal, regulatory or other disadvantage, and further provided that nothing in this Section shall require a Lender to disclose any Tax returns of such Lender or any other Tax information which such Lender deems to be confidential.

		
	(4)
	Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, the Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably.

Section 10.03   Mitigation Obligations: Replacement of Lenders

		
	(1)
	Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 10.01, or requires the Borrowers to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 10.02, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Accommodations hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender (with the prior consent of the Borrowers), such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 10.01 or Section 10.02, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

		
	(2)
	Replacement of Lenders.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 10.01, if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 10.02, if any Lender’s obligations are suspended pursuant to Section 10.04, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Accommodations hereunder, then the Borrowers may either, at their sole expense and effort, upon 10 days’ notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent: (i) repay all outstanding amounts due to such affected Lender (or such portion which has not been acquired pursuant to clause (ii) below) and thereupon such Commitment of the affected Lender shall be permanently cancelled and the Aggregate Commitment shall be permanently reduced by the same amount and the Commitment of each of the other Lenders shall remain the same; or (ii) require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Article 17), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Credit Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

		
	(a)
	the Borrowers pay the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 17.01(2)(f);

		
	(b)
	the assigning Lender receives payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Accommodations Outstanding and participations in disbursements under Documentary Credits, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (including any breakage costs of the assigning Lender);

		
	(c)
	in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 10.01 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 10.02, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

		
	(d)
	such assignment does not conflict with Law.

No Lender shall be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver or consent by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
		
	(3)
	Exemptions or Reductions of Withholding Tax.  Any Lender or the Administrative Agent that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax under the law or treaty of the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) in which the Borrowers are located, with respect to the payment of any obligations shall, on the Borrowers’ reasonable request, deliver to the Borrowers, at the time or times prescribed by applicable Law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers as will permit the payments of such obligations to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.

Section 10.04   Illegality

If the terms of this Agreement, any obligation hereunder, or any agreement related thereto become unlawful in any jurisdiction, then, on notice thereof by a Lender to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender with respect to the activity that is unlawful shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if conversion would avoid the activity that is unlawful, convert any Accommodations, or take any necessary steps with respect to any Documentary Credit in order to avoid the activity that is unlawful.  Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.  Each Lender agrees to designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

ARTICLE 11
RIGHT OF SETOFF

Section 11.01   Right of Setoff.

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each of the Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of the Borrowers or any Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Credit Document to such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender has made any demand under this Agreement or any other Credit Document and although such obligations of the Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each of the Lenders and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff, consolidation of accounts and bankers’ lien) that the Lenders or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.  If any Affiliate of a Lender exercises any rights under this Section 11.01, it shall share the benefit received in accordance with Section 12.01 as if the benefit had been received by the Lender of which it is an Affiliate.

ARTICLE 12
SHARING OF PAYMENTS BY LENDERS

Section 12.01   Sharing of Payments by Lenders

		
	(1)
	If any Lender, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtains any payment or other reduction that might result in such Lender receiving payment or other reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Accommodations and accrued interest thereon or other obligations hereunder greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such payment or other reduction shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Accommodations Outstanding and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders rateably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Accommodations Outstanding and other amounts owing them, provided that:

		
	(a)
	if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest;

		
	(b)
	the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by any Loan Party pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration 

for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Accommodations or participations in disbursements under a Documentary Credit to any assignee or participant, other than to any Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply); and

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

		
	(2)
	The Loan Parties consent to the foregoing and agree, to the extent they may effectively do so under Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim and similar rights of Lenders with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

ARTICLE 13
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S CLAWBACK

Section 13.01   Administrative Agent’s Clawback

		
	(1)
	Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any advance of funds that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such advance, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement concerning funding by Lenders and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable advance available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with prevailing banking industry practice on interbank compensation. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Accommodation included in such advance. If the Lender does not do so forthwith, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent if notified in writing by the Administrative Agent within 3 Business Days of the applicable Lender failing to make available its applicable share of such advance, such corresponding amount with interest thereon at the interest rate applicable to the advance in question. Any payment by the Borrowers shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrowers may have against a Lender that has failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

		
	(2)
	Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the applicable Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender hereunder that the applicable Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the applicable Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute the amount due to the Lenders. In such event, if the applicable Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with prevailing banking industry practice on interbank compensation.

ARTICLE 14
AGENCY

Section 14.01   Appointment and Authority

Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.  Without limiting any of the forgoing, until the Second Lien Repayment Date, all actions and powers exercisable by the Administrative Agent under the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement shall be exercise as directed in writing by the Majority Lenders other than those actions and powers that are administrative in nature.
Section 14.02   Rights as a Lender

The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account to the Lenders.
Section 14..03   Exculpatory Provisions

		
	(1)
	The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

		
	(a)
	shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

		
	(b)
	shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Credit Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for in the Credit Documents), but the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Credit Document or Law; and

		
	(c)
	shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrowers or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

		
	(2)
	The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as is necessary, or as the Administrative Agent believes in good faith is necessary, under the provisions of the Credit Documents) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing the Default or Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent by any Loan Party or a Lender.

		
	(3)
	Except as otherwise expressly specified in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition specified in this Agreement, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

Section 14.04   Reliance by the Administrative Agent

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In 

determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of an Accommodation that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Accommodation or the issuance of such Documentary Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
Section 14.05   Indemnification of the Administrative Agent

Each Lender severally agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and hold it harmless (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel, which may be incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Credit Documents or the transactions therein contemplated.  However, no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct.
Section 14.06   Delegation of Duties

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Credit Document by or through any one or more sub-Administrative Agents appointed by the Administrative Agent from among the Lenders (including the Person serving as Administrative Agent) and its respective Affiliates. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The provisions of this Article and other provisions of this Agreement for the benefit of the Administrative Agent shall apply to any such sub-Administrative Agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-Administrative Agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.
Section 14.07   Replacement of Administrative Agent

		
	(1)
	The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrowers.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right, with (provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) the prior consent of the Borrowers, to appoint a successor, which shall be a Lender having an office in Toronto, Ontario or an Affiliate of any Lender with an office in Toronto.  The Administrative Agent may also be removed at any time by the Majority Lenders upon 30 days’ notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers as long as the Majority Lenders, with the prior consent of the Borrowers, appoint and obtain the acceptance of a successor within such 30 days, which shall be a Lender having an office in Toronto, or an Affiliate of any Lender with an office in Toronto.

		
	(2)
	If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, with the prior consent of the Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or 

delayed), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications specified in Section 14.07(1), provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Credit Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Majority Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in the preceding paragraph.

		
	(3)
	Upon a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the former Administrative Agent, and the former Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided in the preceding paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After the termination of the service of the former Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 14 and of Article 16 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such former Administrative Agent, its sub-Administrative Agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the former Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

Section 14.08   Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
Section 14.09   Collective Action of the Lenders

Each of the Lenders hereby acknowledges that to the extent permitted by Law, any collateral security and the remedies provided under the Credit Documents to the Lenders are for the benefit of the Lenders (including the Hedge Lenders and the Service Lenders) collectively and acting together and not severally and further acknowledges that its rights hereunder and under any collateral security are to be exercised not severally, but by the Administrative Agent upon the decision of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for in the Credit Documents).  Accordingly, notwithstanding any of the provisions contained herein or in any 

collateral security, each of the Lenders hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not be entitled to take any action hereunder or thereunder including, without limitation, any declaration of default hereunder or thereunder or exercise of remedies (including, without limitation the exercise of any right of set-off, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help or any right to credit bid debt) but that any such action shall be taken only by the Administrative Agent with the prior written agreement of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for in the Credit Documents).  Each of the Lenders hereby further covenants and agrees that upon any such written agreement being given, it shall co-operate fully with the Administrative Agent to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the absence of instructions from the Lenders and where in the sole opinion of the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably and in good faith, the exigencies of the situation warrant such action, the Administrative Agent may without notice to or consent of the Lenders take such action on behalf of the Lenders as it deems appropriate or desirable in the interest of the Lenders.  The provisions of this Section 14.09 are for the sole benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and shall not afford any right to, or constitute a defence available to, any Loan Party.

	(2)
	Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Accommodations Outstanding at the time owing to it); provided that:

		
	(a)
	except if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Accommodations Outstanding at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment being assigned (which for this purpose includes Accommodations Outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Accommodations Outstanding of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if the “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than Cdn. $5,000,000 (or the Equivalent U.S. $ Amount), unless the 

Administrative Agent and the Borrowers otherwise consent to a lower amount (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

		
	(b)
	each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Accommodations Outstanding or the Commitment assigned;

		
	(c)
	any assignment must be approved by the Swing Line Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless the Person that is the proposed assignee is itself already a Lender;

		
	(d)
	any assignment must be approved by the Administrative Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

		
	(e)
	any assignment must be approved by the Borrowers (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless (i) the proposed assignee is itself already a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, or an Approved Fund or (ii) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and 

		
	(f)
	the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of Cdn. $3,500 (other than in the case of multiple contemporaneous assignments by a Lender to an Affiliate of a Lender, or Approved Funds, in which case only one such fee shall be payable), which fee shall not be for the account of the Loan Parties, and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (3) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement with respect to the interest assigned and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, including any collateral security, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Article 10 and Article 16, and shall continue to be liable for any breach of this Agreement by such Lender, with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment.  Any payment by an assignee to an assigning Lender in connection with an assignment or transfer shall not be or be deemed to be a repayment by the Borrowers or a new Accommodation to the Borrowers.
		
	(3)
	Register.  The Administrative Agent shall maintain at one of its offices in Toronto, Ontario a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Accommodations Outstanding owing to, each Lender 

pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The Administrative Agent shall promptly enter such information in the Register upon receipt of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it in compliance with paragraph (2) above, which entries shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

		
	(4)
	Limitations upon Assignee Rights. Except in the case of an assignment made during the continuance of an Event of Default, no assignee shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 10.01 and Section 10.02 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the Commitments and Accommodations assigned to such assignee, unless such assignment is made with the Borrowers’ prior written consent.

		
	(5)
	Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Accommodations Outstanding owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in clause (2) or (3) of Section 18.01 that directly affects such Participant.  Any payment by a Participant to a Lender in connection with a sale of a participation shall not be or be deemed to be a repayment by the Borrowers or a new Accommodation to the Borrowers.

Subject to paragraph (6) of this Section, and to the extent permitted by Law, each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Article 10 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (2) of this Section, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Article 12 as though it were a Lender.

		
	(6)
	Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 10.01 and Section 10.02, than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with each Borrower’s prior written consent.

		
	(7)
	Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, but no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

thereby, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Section, the Borrowers shall be permitted to replace such Non-Consenting Lender with a replacement financial institution satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender, so long as the consent of the Majority Lenders shall have been obtained with respect to such amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Law, (ii) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Accommodations and other amounts owing to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to the Credit Documents on or prior to the date of replacement, (iii) the replacement financial institution shall approve the proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent, (iv) the Non-Consenting Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 17.01 (provided that the Borrowers shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to in Section 17.01(2)(f)), (v) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrowers shall pay to the Non-Consenting Lender all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Article 10, (vi) the Borrowers shall provide at least three (3) Business Days’ prior notice to the Non-Consenting Lender, and (vii) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the Non-Consenting Lender.

	(1)
	If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due to a Lender in any currency (the “Original Currency”) into another currency (the ”Other Currency”), the parties agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, such Lender could purchase the Original Currency with the Other Currency on the Business Day preceding the day on which final judgment is given or, if permitted by Law, on the day on which the judgment is paid or satisfied.

		
	(2)
	The obligations of the Borrowers in respect of any sum due in the Original Currency from it to any Lender under any of the Credit Documents shall, notwithstanding any 

judgment in any Other Currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Other Currency, the Lender may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase the Original Currency with such Other Currency.  If the amount of the Original Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Lender in the Original Currency, the Borrowers agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding the judgment, to indemnify the Lender against any loss, and, if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the Lender in the Original Currency, the Lender shall remit such excess to the Borrowers.

	Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to it, its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives to the extent necessary to administer or enforce this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent required by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority), (c) to the extent required by Laws or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (B) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap, derivative, credit-linked note or similar transaction relating to

To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to execute and deliver this Agreement and to make or maintain the Accommodations, and in consideration thereof, each Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally, and irrevocably and unconditionally, guarantees to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the Service Lenders and the Hedge Lenders (the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Service Lenders and the Hedge Lenders are collectively, the “Guaranteed Parties” and each a “Guaranteed Party”), due and punctual payment and performance to the Guaranteed Parties upon written demand made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement of all debts, liabilities and obligations of or owing by each Borrower to any Guaranteed Party at any time and from time to time, present and future, direct and indirect, absolute and contingent, matured or not, arising from this Agreement or any other Credit Document, and all amendments, restatements, replacements, renewals, extensions, or supplements and continuations thereof, and whether each Borrower is bound alone or with another or others, and whether as principal or surety, and including without limitation, all liabilities of each Borrower arising as a consequence of its failure to pay or fulfil any of such debts, liabilities and obligations (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).
Section 23.02   Indemnity.

In addition to the guarantee specified in Section 23.01, each Guarantor agrees to, jointly and severally, indemnify and save each Guaranteed Party harmless from and against all costs, losses, expenses and damages it may suffer as a result or consequence of either Borrower’s default in the performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any of the Guaranteed Obligations being or becoming void, voidable or unenforceable or ineffective against either Borrower, or any inability by any Guaranteed Party to recover the ultimate balance due or remaining unpaid to such Guaranteed Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including without limitation, legal fees incurred by or on behalf of any Guaranteed Party resulting from any action instituted on the basis of this Guarantee.
Section 23.03   Payment and Performance.

		
	(1)
	Subject to Section 23.04 if any Borrower fails or refuses to punctually make any payment or perform its Guaranteed Obligations, each Guarantor shall unconditionally render any such payment or performance upon demand in accordance with the terms of this Guarantee.

		
	(2)
	Nothing but payment and satisfaction in full of the Guaranteed Obligations shall release any Guarantor from its obligations under this Guarantee, except where expressly contemplated by this Agreement in connection with a disposition or transfer of such Guarantor in a transaction permitted by this Agreement.

Section 23.04   Continuing Obligation.

The only condition necessary as a condition of each Guarantor honouring its obligations under this Guarantee shall be a written demand by the Administrative Agent following the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing.  This Guarantee shall be a continuing guarantee, shall cover all the Guaranteed Obligations, and shall apply to and secure any ultimate balance due or remaining unpaid to any Guaranteed Party.  This Guarantee shall continue to be binding regardless of:

		
	(a)
	whether any other Person or Persons (an “Additional Guarantor”) shall become in any other way responsible to any Guaranteed Party for or in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations;

		
	(b)
	whether any such Additional Guarantor shall cease to be so liable;

		
	(c)
	the enforceability, validity, perfection or effect of perfection or non-perfection of any security interest securing the Guaranteed Obligations, or the validity or enforceability of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; or

		
	(d)
	whether any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations has been made and where such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be returned upon the occurrence of any action or event, including the insolvency or bankruptcy of any Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

Section 23.05   Guarantee Unaffected.

This Guarantee shall not be determined or affected, or the Guaranteed Parties’ rights under this Guarantee prejudiced by, the termination of any Guaranteed Obligations by operation of Law or otherwise, including without limitation, the bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or liquidation of  any Loan Party, any change in the name, business, powers, capital structure, constitution, objects, organization, directors or management of any Loan Party, with respect to transactions occurring either before or after such change.  This Guarantee is to extend to the liabilities of the Person or Persons for the time being and from time to time carrying on the business now carried on by any Loan Party, notwithstanding any reorganization of any Loan Party or the amalgamation of any Loan Party with one or more other corporations (in this case, this Guarantee shall extend to the liabilities of the resulting corporation and the term “Guarantor” shall include such resulting corporation) or any sale or disposal of any Loan Party’s business in whole or in part to one or more other Persons and all of such liabilities shall be included in the Guaranteed Obligations.  Each Guarantor agrees that the manner in which the Guaranteed Parties may now or subsequently deal with any other Loan Party or any security (or any collateral subject to the security) or other guarantee in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have no effect on any Guarantor’s continuing liability under this Guarantee and such Guarantor irrevocably waives any rights it may have in respect of any of the above.
Section 23.06   Waivers.
Each Guarantor waives each of the following, to the fullest extent permitted by Law:
		
	(1)
	any defence based upon:

		
	(a)
	the unenforceability or invalidity of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any security or other guarantee for the Guaranteed Obligations or any failure of any Guaranteed Party to take proper care or act in a commercially reasonable manner in respect of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral subject to the security, including in respect of any disposition of the Collateral or any set-off of any Loan Party’s bank deposits against the Guaranteed Obligations;

		
	(b)
	any act or omission of a Loan Party or any other Person, including the Guaranteed Parties, that directly or indirectly results in the discharge or release 

of  a Loan Party or any other Person or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; or

		
	(c)
	any Guaranteed Party’s present or future method of dealing with any Loan Party, any Additional Guarantor or any security (or any collateral subject to the security) or other guarantee for the Guaranteed Obligations;

		
	(2)
	any right (whether now or hereafter existing) to require any Guaranteed Party, as a condition to the enforcement of this Guarantee including, without limitation, any indemnity provided for herein:

		
	(a)
	to accelerate any of the Guaranteed Obligations or proceed and exhaust any recourse against a Loan Party or any other Person;

		
	(b)
	to realize on any security that it holds;

		
	(c)
	to marshal the assets of such Guarantor or any other Loan Party; or

		
	(d)
	to pursue any other remedy that such Guarantor may not be able to pursue itself and that might limit or reduce such Guarantor’s  burden;

Each Guaranteed Party has the right to deal with any Guarantor, the documents creating or evidencing the Guaranteed Obligations and the security (or any collateral subject to the security) now or subsequently held by any Guaranteed Party (including without limitation, all modifications, extensions, replacements, amendments, renewals, restatements, and supplements to such documents or security) as such Guaranteed Party may see fit, without notice to any Guarantor and without in any way affecting, relieving, limiting or lessening such Guarantor’s liability under this Guarantee.  Without limitation, each Guaranteed Party may:
		
	(1)

Section 23.08   Assignment and Postponement.

All indebtedness and liability, present and future, of each Loan Party to each Guarantor are hereby assigned to the Administrative Agent on behalf and for the benefit of the Guaranteed Parties and postponed to the Guaranteed Obligations, and, following the occurrence of an Event of Default that is continuing, all monies received by any Guarantor in respect thereof shall be received in trust for the Guaranteed Parties and forthwith upon receipt thereof shall be paid over to the Administrative Agent on behalf and for the rateable benefit of the Guaranteed Parties; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, absent the continuance of an Event of Default, this Section 23.08 shall not prohibit or restrict payments and repayments by or to any Guarantor to the extent otherwise permitted by this Agreement.
Section 23.09   Action or Inaction.

Except as otherwise provided at Law, no action or omission on the part of any Guaranteed Party in exercising or failing to exercise its rights under this Article 23 or in connection with or arising from all or part of the Guaranteed Obligations shall make any Guaranteed Party liable to any Guarantor for any loss occasioned to such Guarantor.  No loss of or in respect of any security received by any Guaranteed Party from any other Loan Party or others, whether occasioned by any Guaranteed Party’s fault or otherwise, shall in any way affect, relieve, limit or lessen any Guarantor’s liability under this Guarantee.
Section 23.10   Guaranteed Parties’ Rights.

The rights and remedies provided in this Section are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Law.

Section 23.11  Demand.

The Administrative Agent may make demand in writing to any Guarantor at any time and from time to time after the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each such written demand to be accepted by such Guarantor as complete and satisfactory evidence of the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations to be paid by such Guarantor absent manifest error.  Each Guarantor shall pay to the Administrative Agent such amount or amounts payable under this Guarantee promptly upon such written demand.
Section 23.12   No Representations.

Each Guarantor acknowledges that this Guarantee has been delivered free of any conditions and that there are no representations which have been made to such Guarantor affecting such Guarantor’s liability under this Guarantee except as may be specifically embodied in this Guarantee and agrees that this Guarantee is in addition to and not in substitution for any other guarantee(s) held or which may subsequently be held by or for the benefit of any Guaranteed Party.
