	2.
	Interest Rate and Fee Provisions

		
	2.1
	Interest Rate

The unpaid principal balance of the Loans will bear interest at the applicable LIBOR Rate plus 4.25%.  All unpaid interest on the Loan will be paid on the first calendar day of each month (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) and (b) the Maturity Date (defined below).
		
	2.2
	Computations of Interest

All computations of interest shall be based on a 360‐day year for the actual number of days elapsed. All calculations of the LIBOR Rate shall be made by the 2016 Lender and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and with respect to Canadian Borrowers only: (i) whenever any interest or fee payable by the Canadian Borrowers is calculated on any basis other than a full calendar year (the “deemed interest period”), the rate determined pursuant to such calculation, when expressed as an annual rate, is equivalent to a yearly rate calculated by dividing such interest rate by the actual number of days in the deemed interest period, then multiplying such result by the actual number of days in the calendar year (365 or 366); and (ii) all calculations of interest payable by the Canadian Borrowers under this Note or any other Note Document are to be made on the basis of the nominal interest rate described herein and therein and not on the basis of effective yearly rates or on any other basis which gives effect to the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest. The parties hereto acknowledge that there is a material difference between the stated nominal interest rates and the effective yearly rates of interest and that they are capable of making the calculations required to determine such effective yearly rates of interest.
		
	2.3
	Maximum Interest Rate; Criminal Rate of Interest; Nominal Rate of Interest

Notwithstanding any provision contained herein, the total liability of US Borrowers for payment of interest pursuant hereto, including any late charges, shall not exceed the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law to be charged, collected or received from US Borrower, and if any payments by US Borrower include interest in excess of that maximum amount, 2016 Lender shall apply the excess first to reduce the unpaid balance of the US Loan, then to reduce the balance of any other indebtedness of US Borrowers to 2016 Lender.  If there is no such indebtedness, the excess shall be returned to US Borrowers.
 If any provision of this Note or any of the other Note Documents would obligate the Canadian Borrowers or any other Person to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to the 2016 Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by the 2016 Lender of interest at a criminal rate (as construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), if applicable thereto, then notwithstanding that provision, that 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 result in a receipt by the 2016 Lender of interest at a criminal rate, the adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, as follows: (i) first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid to 

the 2016 Lender under this Note; and (ii) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to the 2016 Lender which would constitute interest for purposes of the Criminal Code (Canada).
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.3, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated hereby, if the 2016 Lender shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by the Criminal Code (Canada) or other legal prohibition, then the Canadian Borrowers or such other Person shall be entitled, by notice in writing to the 2016 Lender, as the case may be, to obtain reimbursement from the 2016 Lender, as the case may be, in an amount equal to the excess, and pending reimbursement, the amount of the excess shall be deemed to be an amount payable by the 2016 Lender, as the case may be, to the Canadian Borrowers.  Any amount or rate of interest referred to in this Section 2.3 shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term that any Obligation remains 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 the incurrence of the Obligation to its relevant maturity date and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the 2016 Lender shall be conclusive for the purposes of that determination.
		
	2.4
	Default Rate

 Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the interest rate charged on the Loan will automatically increase to a rate of interest equal to 2 percent per annum in excess of the interest rate then applicable to the Loan, from the date of the occurrence of the Event of Default until the Event of Default is cured or waived by 2016 Lender or, absent cure or waiver, until the Loan is repaid in full.
2.5    Upfront Fee
On the date hereof US Borrower and Canadian Borrower, respectively, shall pay the 2016 Lender an upfront fee in an amount equal to 0.125% of the initial amount of the US Loan and Canadian Loan.

4.2    All sums payable to 2016 Lender under to this Note shall be paid directly to 2016 Lender in immediately available United States funds.  All payments hereunder shall be made to the 2016 Lender free and clear of all claims and without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, at the office of the 2016 Lender on the date when due, or as otherwise mutually agreed to by the Borrowers and the 2016 Lender. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall in such case be included in computing interest on such payment.
		
	5.
	Prepayments

5.1    Voluntary.    Subject to the Revolving Loan Intercreditor Agreement, upon one Business Day’s prior written notice, Borrowers shall have the right, at any time and without penalty or premium, to

The Borrower shall be obligated to make such prepayments either within thirty days or in six substantially equal monthly installments, with accrued interest thereon, the first of which shall be due within such thirty days and each subsequent payment being due and payable on the same day in each of the subsequent calendar months.

(iii)    Upon any adjustment to the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.08(f), Section 2.08(g), Section 2.08(h) or Section 2.08(i), if the Aggregate Credit Exposure exceeds the Borrowing Base as adjusted, then the Borrower shall (i) prepay the Borrowings in an aggregate principal amount equal to such excess, and (ii) if any excess remains after prepaying all of the Borrowings as a result of an LC Exposure, pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders an amount equal to such excess to be held as cash collateral as provided in Section 2.04(j).

Proceeds from the applicable issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness and (z) in the case of a reduction of the Borrowing Base pursuant to Section 2.08(i), on the date of such reduction.

(iv)    In the event and on each occasion that any Net Cash Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Loan Party in respect of any Prepayment Event, the Borrower shall, immediately after such Net Cash Proceeds are received by the Borrower any other Loan Party, prepay the Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds, with such prepayment resulting in a concurrent permanent reduction of the Borrowing Base and the Commitments in an amount equal to such prepayment.
