THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED
CREDIT AGREEMENT

THIS THIRD AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), is entered into as of June 28, 2019, by and among the lenders identified on the signature pages hereof (each of such lenders, together with their respective successors and permitted assigns, are referred to hereinafter as a "Lender", as that term is hereinafter further defined), Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, "Agent"), PolyOne Corporation, an Ohio corporation ("Parent"), and the subsidiaries of Parent organized under the laws of a jurisdiction in the United States party hereto as borrowers (together with Parent, and certain other subsidiaries of Parent organized under the laws of a jurisdiction in the United States that are or may become party hereto after the date hereof, each individually a "US Borrower" and collectively, "US Borrowers" as hereinafter further defined), PolyOne Canada Inc., a federally incorporated Canadian corporation ("PolyOne Canada", and together with certain other subsidiaries of Parent organized under the laws of a jurisdiction in Canada that are or may become party hereto after the date hereof, each individually a "Canadian Borrower" and collectively, "Canadian Borrowers" as hereinafter further defined), and PolyOne S.à r.l., a Luxembourg société a responsabilité limitée with registered office at 19, route de Bastogne, L-9638 Pommerloch, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and registered with the Luxembourg Register of Commerce and Companies (Registre de Commerce et des Sociétés Luxembourg) under number B226205 (the "Luxembourg Borrower", and, together with US Borrowers and Canadian Borrowers, each individually a "Borrower" and collectively, "Borrowers").

The parties agree as follows:


1.	DEFINITIONS AND CONSTRUCTION.

Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings specified therefor on Schedule 1.1.

Accounting Terms. Any accounting term used in this Agreement shall have, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, the meaning customarily given in accordance with GAAP, and all financial computations hereunder shall be computed unless otherwise specifically provided herein, in accordance with GAAP as consistently applied and using the same method for inventory valuation as used in the preparation of the financial statements of Parent most recently received by Agent prior to the date hereof; provided, that, in the event of any change in GAAP after the date hereof that affects the covenants in Section 7 hereof, Administrative Borrower may by notice to Agent, or Agent may, and at the request of Required Lenders shall, by notice to Administrative Borrower request that Agent and Administrative Borrower negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Required Lenders); provided, that, until so amended, (a) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (b) Administrative Borrower shall provide to Agent and Lenders financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP. No consent or amendment fee shall be required to be paid to any Lender in connection with an amendment contemplated by this Section 1.2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in GAAP or any interpretations or other pronouncements by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or otherwise, the term "unqualified opinion" as used herein to refer to opinions or reports provided by accountants shall mean an opinion or report that is unqualified and also does not include any explanation, supplemental comment or other comment concerning the ability of the applicable person to continue as a going concern or the scope of the audit. When used herein, the term "financial statements" shall include the notes and schedules thereto. Whenever the term "Parent" or "Borrowers" is used in respect of a financial covenant or a related definition, it shall be understood to mean Parent or Borrowers and their Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, unless the context clearly requires otherwise. For purposes of calculations pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, GAAP will be deemed to treat operating leases in a manner consistent with the current treatment under GAAP as in effect on the Effective Date, notwithstanding any modification or interpretive changes thereto that may occur hereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any lease of the Parent or its Subsidiaries that would be characterized as an operating lease under GAAP in effect on December 31, 2018 shall not constitute a Capital Lease under this Agreement or any other Loan Document as a result of changes in GAAP on January 1, 2019 unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Borrowers and Required Lenders.

Code. Any terms used in this Agreement that are defined in the Code shall be construed and defined as set forth in the Code unless otherwise defined herein and any terms used in this Agreement that are defined in the PPSA and relating to Collateral consisting of assets of the Canadian Loan Parties shall be construed and defined as set forth in the PPSA unless otherwise defined herein; provided, that, to the extent that the Code is used to define any term herein and such term is defined differently in different Articles of the Code, the definition of such term contained in Article 9 of the Code shall govern.

Construction. Unless the context of this Agreement or any other Loan Document clearly requires otherwise, references to the plural include the singular, references to the singular include the plural, the terms "includes" and "including" are not limiting, and the term "or" has, except where otherwise indicated, the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase "and/or." The words "hereof," "herein," "hereby," "hereunder," and similar terms in this Agreement or any other Loan Document refer to this Agreement or such other Loan Document, as the case may be, as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement or such other Loan Document, as the case may be. Section, subsection, clause, schedule, and exhibit references herein are to this Agreement unless otherwise specified. Any reference in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document to any agreement, instrument, or document shall include all alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements, thereto and thereof, as applicable (subject to any restrictions on such alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements set forth herein). The words "asset" and "property" shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties. Any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person's successors and assigns. Any reference herein to "province" or like terms shall be construed to include "territory" and like terms. Any requirement of a writing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be satisfied by the transmission of a Record. An Event of Default shall exist or continue or be continuing until such Event of Default is waived in accordance with Section 14.1 or is cured if such Event of Default is capable of being cured. Any reference herein or in any other Loan Document to the satisfaction, repayment, or payment in full of the Obligations shall mean (a) the repayment in full in cash or immediately available funds of all of the Obligations (including the payment of any Lender Group Expenses that have accrued regardless of whether demand has been made therefor), excluding in any case the Obligations described in the following clause (b) of this Section 1.4, and (b) in the case of (i) contingent reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit, the receipt by Agent of the Letter of Credit Collateralization, (ii) Bank Products other than Hedge Obligations, the receipt by Agent of the Bank Product Collateralization, (iii) checks or other payments provisionally credited to the Obligations and for which Agent or any Lender has not received final payment, the receipt by Agent of cash collateral to secure such amounts (unless Agent shall have received a satisfactory indemnity with respect thereto from another financial institution), (iv) Hedge Obligations, the receipt by Agent of cash collateral to secure such amounts (or, at the option of Agent or the Hedge Provider with respect to such Hedge Agreements, the termination of the applicable Hedge Agreement and the payment in full in cash of the Obligations due and payable in connection with such termination), and (v) other contingent Obligations for which a claim or demand for payment has been made at such time to Agent or any Lender for which Agent or such Lender is entitled to indemnification by any Loan Party, the receipt by Agent of cash collateral to secure such amounts. Unless the context of this Agreement or any other Loan Document clearly requires otherwise or Agent otherwise determines, amounts expressed in US Dollars at any time when used with respect to Foreign Subsidiaries or similar matters shall be deemed to mean the US Dollar Equivalent of such amounts at such time.

Luxembourg Matters. The parties to this Agreement confirm that it is their wish that this Agreement and any other document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated herein be drawn up in the English language only and that all other documents contemplated thereunder or relating thereto, including notices, may also be drawn up in the English language only. Les parties aux présentes confirment que c'est leur volonté que cette convention et les autres documents de crédit soient rédigés en langue anglaise seulement et que tous les documents, y compris tous avis, envisagés par cette convention et les autres documents peuvent être rédigés en la langue anglaise seulement. In this Agreement and any other Loan Documents, where it relates to a Loan Party incorporated in Luxembourg, a reference to: (a) winding up, administration or dissolution includes, without limitation, any procedure or proceeding in relation to an entity becoming bankrupt (faillite), insolvency, voluntary or judicial liquidation, composition with creditors (concordat préventif de faillite), moratorium or reprieve from payment (sursis de paiement), controlled management (gestion contrôlée), fraudulent conveyance (actio pauliana), general settlement with creditors, reorganisation or any other similar proceedings affecting the rights of creditors generally under Luxembourg law, and shall be construed so as to include any equivalent or analogous liquidation or reorganisation proceeding; (b) an agent includes, without limitation, a "mandataire"; (c) a receiver, administrative receiver, administrator or the like includes, without limitation, a juge délégué, commissaire, juge-commissaire, liquidateur or curateur or any other person performing the same function of each of the foregoing; (d) a matured obligation includes, without limitation, any exigible, certaine and liquide obligation; (e) security or a security interest includes, without limitation, any hypothèque, nantissement, privilège, accord de transfert de propriété à titre de garantie, gage sur fonds de commerce or sûreté réelle whatsoever whether granted or arising by operation of law; (f) a person being unable to pay its debts includes, without limitation, that person being in a state of cessation of payments (cessation de paiements); (g) an attachment includes a saisie; and (h) by-laws or constitutional documents includes its up-to-date (restated) articles of association (statuts); and a director, officer or manager includes a gérant or an administrateur.

Time References. Unless otherwise indicated herein, all references to time of day refer to Eastern Standard Time or Eastern daylight saving time, as in effect in New York City on such day. For purposes of the computation of a period of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word "from" means "from and including" and the words "to" and "until" each means "to and including"; provided, that, with respect to a computation of fees or interest payable to Agent or any Lender, such period shall include the first day, but not the last day of it so long as payment thereof is received prior to the time specified in Section 2.5, but in any event shall consist of at least one full day.

Currency Matters. Principal, interest, reimbursement obligations, fees, and all other amounts payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to Agent and the Lenders shall be payable in US Dollars (or, solely in the case of Luxembourg Revolving Loans and interest related thereto, Euros) or, at the option of Borrowers, in the applicable currency in which such obligation was incurred. Unless stated otherwise, all calculations, comparisons, measurements or determinations under this Agreement shall be made in US Dollars. For the purpose of such calculations, comparisons, measurements or determinations, amounts or proceeds denominated in other currencies shall be converted to the US Dollar Equivalent on the date of calculation at the Exchange Rate calculated by Agent in good faith on such date, comparison, measurement or determination. Unless expressly provided otherwise, where a reference is made to a US Dollar amount, the amount is to be considered as the amount in US Dollars and, therefore, each other currency shall be converted into the US Dollar Equivalent thereof.

Schedules and Exhibits. All of the schedules and exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be deemed incorporated herein by reference.

Effect of Amendment and Restatement; No Novation. Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety by this Agreement. The Existing Obligations shall continue in full force and effect, and the effectiveness of this Agreement shall not constitute a novation or repayment of the Existing Obligations. Such Existing Obligations, together with any and all additional Obligations incurred by any Borrower under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents, shall continue to be secured by, among other things, the applicable portions of the Collateral, whether now existing or hereafter acquired and wheresoever located, all as more specifically set forth in the Loan Documents. Each Borrower party to the Existing Credit Agreement hereby reaffirms its obligations, liabilities, grants of security interests, pledges and the validity of all covenants by it contained in any and all Loan Documents, as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified by this Agreement and by the other Loan Documents delivered prior to the Effective Date. Any and all references in any Loan Documents to the Existing Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to refer to this Agreement.

Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction's laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

Agent may at any time and from time to time require that an Authorized Person execute and deliver to Agent a certificate, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, representing that each of (x) the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans, Protective Advances and Overadvances) plus the Letter of Credit Usage outstanding at such time (and after giving effect to any of the foregoing that have been requested) and (y) the Maximum Credit, in each case, does not and will not exceed the Term Loan Debt Limit, together with calculations in reasonable detail evidencing such compliance.

(e) Amounts borrowed pursuant to this Section 2.1 may be repaid and, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, reborrowed at any time during the term of this Agreement. The outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans, together with interest accrued thereon, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date or, if earlier, on the date on which they are declared due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(f) Anything to the contrary in this Section 2.1 notwithstanding, Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation), in its Permitted Discretion, to establish, increase, reduce, eliminate, or otherwise adjust reserves (without duplication) from time to time against the US Borrowing Base, the Canadian Borrowing Base or the Luxembourg Borrowing Base in such amounts, and with respect to such matters, as Agent in its Permitted Discretion shall deem necessary, including (i) reserves in an amount equal to the Bank Product Reserve Amount, (ii) [reserved], (iii) [reserved], (iv) reserves in the amount of any Restricted Payment under Section 6.8(h) that has been declared but has not yet been paid, but only if Excess Availability is less than $100,000,000 at any time during the period commencing with the declaration of such Restricted Payment and ending with the payment thereof, and (v) reserves with respect to (A) sums that Parent or its Subsidiaries are required to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (such as taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, or, in the case of leased assets, rents or other amounts payable under such leases) and has failed to pay when due, and (B) amounts owing by Parent or its Subsidiaries to any Person to the extent secured by a Lien on, or trust or deemed trust over, any of the Revolving Loan Priority Collateral (other than a Permitted Lien under clause (m) of the definition of such term), which Lien, trust or deemed trust, in the Permitted Discretion of Agent likely would be pari passu with, or have a priority superior to, Agent's Liens (such as Priority Payables or Liens or trusts in favor of landlords, warehousemen, carriers, mechanics, materialmen, laborers, or suppliers, or Liens or trusts for ad valorem, excise, sales, or other taxes or other amounts that may be pari passu or given priority under applicable law) in and to such item of the Revolving Loan Priority Collateral. To the extent that an event, condition or matter as to any Eligible Accounts or Eligible Inventory is addressed pursuant to the treatment thereof within the applicable definition of such terms, Agent shall not also establish a reserve to address the same event, condition or matter. The amount of any reserve established by Agent shall have a reasonable relationship to the event, condition or other matter which is the basis for such reserve as determined by Agent in its Permitted Discretion and to the extent that such reserve is in respect of amounts that may be payable to third parties Agent may, at its option (without duplication), deduct such reserve from the US Maximum Credit, the Canadian Maximum Credit or the Luxembourg Maximum Credit in the event that the US Borrowing Base, Canadian Borrowing Base or Luxembourg Borrowing Base exceeds the applicable amount. Agent will provide notice to Administrative Borrower three (3) Business Days' prior to the establishment of any new categories of reserves after the date hereof or any change in the methodology for the calculation of an existing reserve after the date hereof, except that such notice shall not be required (i) at any time there is a Cash Dominion Event or, if in the good faith determination of Agent, it is necessary to act sooner to preserve or protect the Collateral or its value or the rights of Agent therein or to otherwise address any event, condition or circumstance that, in the good faith judgment of the Agent, is reasonably likely to cause a diminution in the value of the Collateral or to threaten the ability to realize upon any portion of the Collateral or (ii) if after giving effect to any such new category of reserves or change in methodology there would be an Overadvance. Upon receipt of such notice, Administrative Borrower may take such action as may be required so that the event, condition, or matter that is the basis for the reserve no longer exists. At any time that the event, condition or circumstance that is the basis for the reserve ceases to exist or is otherwise addressed to the satisfaction of Agent, then the applicable reserve will be terminated.

(g) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, reserves may be established to reflect any of the following: (i) Inventory shrinkage, (ii) markdowns and cost variances (pursuant to discrepancies between the purchase order price of Inventory and the actual cost thereof), (iii) returns, discounts, claims, credits and allowances of any nature that are not paid pursuant to the reduction of Accounts, (iv) any rental payments, service charges or other amounts due or to become due to owners or lessors of Real Property to the extent Inventory or Records are located in or on such property or in the possession or control of such parties or such Records are needed to monitor or otherwise deal with the Collateral (other than for locations where Agent has received a Collateral Access Agreement executed and delivered by the owner and lessor of such Real Property that Agent has acknowledged in writing is in form and substance satisfactory to Agent), provided, that, the reserves established pursuant to this clause (iv) as to leased locations shall not exceed at any time the aggregate of amounts payable for the next three (3) months to the lessors of such locations, except that such limitation on the amount of the reserves shall not apply at any time that an Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing, or at any time there is any event of default under the lease by Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent with respect to such location or a notice thereof has been sent or received by or on behalf of any Loan Party, (v) any rental payments, service charges or other amounts due or to become due to lessors of personal property, (vi) an increase in the number of days of the turnover of Inventory or a change in the mix of the Inventory that results in an overall decrease in the value thereof or a deterioration in its nature or quality (but only to the extent not addressed by the lending formulas in a manner satisfactory to Agent), (vii) variances between the perpetual Inventory records of Borrowers and the results of the test counts of Inventory conducted by Agent with respect thereto in excess of the percentage reasonably acceptable to Agent in its Permitted Discretion, (viii) dilution with respect to Accounts (based on the ratio of the aggregate amount of non-cash reductions in Accounts for any period to the aggregate dollar amount of the sales of such Borrower for such period) as calculated by Agent for any period (with such calculations to be based on the results of the most recently received Acceptable Field Exam by Agent or, in between such Acceptable Field Exams, in Agent's sole discretion, on the monthly Account roll-forward report delivered to Agent pursuant to Section 5.2) is greater than three percent (3%); provided, that reductions with respect to the advance rates as a result of the foregoing shall not apply unless and until dilution is greater than three percent (3%) by a full percentage point (and, thereafter, by additional full percentage points), at which point the advance rate may be reduced in equal full percentage point increments, (ix) in the event that at any time the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans, Protective Advances and Overadvances) plus the Letter of Credit Usage outstanding are within ten percent (10%) of the Term Loan Debt Limit, amounts sufficient to maintain up to a ten percent (10%) cushion between the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans, Protective Advances and Overadvances) plus the Letter of Credit Usage and the Term Loan Debt Limit. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this clause (f), any change to the amount of any reserves described above shall be based on changes in the event, condition or circumstance that is basis for such reserves after the date hereof.

Borrowing Procedures and Settlements.

(a) Requests for Revolving Borrowing. To request a Revolving Loan or Swing Loan, the applicable Borrower (or Administrative Borrower on behalf of such Borrower) shall notify Agent by telephone or through a written request made by an Authorized Person to Agent (which may be delivered through Agent's electronic platform or portal) no later than 11:00 a.m. (i) on the Business Day that is the requested Funding Date in the case of a request for a Swing Loan (other than Luxembourg Swing Loans, which shall be made consistent with clause (b)(iii) below) or Base Rate Loans to be made in US Dollars, (ii) on the Business Day that is one Business Day prior to the requested Funding Date in the case of a request for a Base Rate Loan to be made in Canadian Dollars, and (iii) on the Business Day that is three Business Days prior to the requested Funding Date in the case of all other requests; provided, that Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to accept as timely requests that are received later than 11:00 a.m. on the applicable Business Day. All Borrowing requests which are not made on-line via Agent's electronic platform or portal shall be subject to (and unless Agent elects otherwise in the exercise of its sole discretion, such Borrowings shall not be made until the completion of) Agent's authentication process (with results satisfactory to Agent) prior to the funding of any such requested Revolving Loan. Any telephonic request shall be irrevocable and to the extent required by Agent, confirmed promptly by a written request in accordance with this Section 2.2(a). Each such telephonic and written request shall specify the following information:

(i) the Borrower requesting such Revolving Loan or Swing Loan;

(ii) whether such Loan is a Revolving Loan or Swing Loan;

(iii) the aggregate amount of such Revolving Loan or Swing Loan;

(iv) the date of such Revolving Loan or Swing Loan, which shall be a Business Day;

(v) whether such Revolving Loan or Swing Loan is to be a Base Rate Loan, a BA Rate Loan, a LIBOR Rate Loan or a EURIBOR Rate Loan;

(vi) in the case of a LIBOR Rate Loan or a BA Rate Loan, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term "Interest Period"; and

(vii) in the case of each Canadian Revolving Loan, whether such Canadian Revolving Loan is to be a US Dollar Denominated Loan or a Canadian Dollar Denominated Loan.

If no election as to whether a Revolving Loan is to be a BA Rate Loan or LIBOR Rate Loan is specified in the applicable request, then the requested Revolving Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan (provided that subject to Section 2.10(d), all Luxembourg Revolving Loans shall be EURIBOR Rate Loans) and if no Interest Period is specified with respect to any request for a LIBOR Rate Loan or a BA Rate Loan, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration. Promptly following receipt of a request for a Revolving Loan in accordance with this Section, Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender's Revolving Loan to be made as part of the request. All Loans and Letters of Credit under this Agreement shall be conclusively presumed to have been made to, and at the request of and for the benefit of, any Borrower or Guarantor when deposited to the credit of any Borrower or Guarantor or otherwise disbursed or established in accordance with the instructions of any Borrower or Guarantor or in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(b) Making of Swing Loans.

(i) Making of US Swing Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Swing Lender agrees that it will make a US Revolving Loan (any such US Revolving Loan made solely by Swing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.2 (b)(i) being referred to as a "US Swing Loan") to US Borrowers from time to time in amounts requested by any US Borrower (or Administrative Borrower on behalf of US Borrowers) up to the aggregate amount outstanding equal to the US Swing Loan Limit, provided, that, after giving effect to any such US Swing Loan, the aggregate principal amount of the US Revolving Loans, US Swing Loans and US Letter of Credit Usage outstanding at any time shall not exceed the lesser of the US Borrowing Base at such time or US Maximum Credit at such time. Each US Swing Loan shall be deemed to be a US Revolving Loan hereunder and shall be subject to all the terms and conditions (including Section 3) applicable to other US Revolving Loans, except that all payments on any Swing Loan shall be payable to Swing Lender solely for its own account. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.3(d)(ii), Swing Lender shall not make and shall not be obligated to make any US Swing Loan if Swing Lender has actual knowledge that (A) one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.1 or 3.2 will not be satisfied on the requested Funding Date for the applicable Borrowing, or (B) the requested Borrowing would exceed the Availability on such Funding Date. Swing Lender shall not otherwise be required to determine whether the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.1 or 3.2 have been satisfied on the Funding Date applicable thereto prior to making any US Swing Loan. The US Swing Loans shall be secured by Agent's Liens, constitute US Revolving Loans and US Obligations hereunder, and bear interest at the rate applicable from time to time to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans. Upon the making of a US Swing Loan, without further action by any party hereto, each US Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from Swing Line Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender's Pro Rata Share in such US Swing Loan. To the extent that there is no Settlement in accordance with Section 2.3(c) hereof, the applicable Swing Line Lender may at any time, require the applicable US Lenders to fund their participations. From and after the date, if any, on which any US Lender has funded its participation in any US Swing Loan, Agent shall promptly distribute to such US Lender, not less than weekly, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of all payments of principal and interest received by Agent in respect of such US Swing Loan.

(ii) Making of Canadian Swing Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Swing Lender agrees that it will make a Canadian Revolving Loan (any such Canadian Revolving Loan made solely by Swing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.2(b)(ii) being referred to as a "Canadian Swing Loan") to Canadian Borrowers from time to time in amounts requested by any Canadian Borrower (or Administrative Borrower on behalf of Canadian Borrowers) up to the aggregate amount outstanding equal to the Canadian Swing Loan Limit, provided, that, after giving effect to any such Canadian Swing Loan, the aggregate principal amount of the Canadian Revolving Loans, Canadian Swing Loans and Canadian Letter of Credit Usage outstanding at any time shall not exceed the lesser of the Canadian Borrowing Base at such time or Canadian Maximum Credit at such time. Each Canadian Swing Loan shall be deemed to be a Canadian Revolving Loan hereunder and shall be subject to all the terms and conditions (including Section 3) applicable to other Canadian Revolving Loans, except that all payments on any Swing Loan shall be payable to Swing Lender solely for its own account. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.2(d)(ii), Swing Lender shall not make and shall not be obligated to make any Canadian Swing Loan if Swing Lender has actual knowledge that (A) one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.1 or 3.2 will not be satisfied on the requested Funding Date for the applicable Borrowing, or (B) the requested Borrowing would exceed the Availability on such Funding Date. Swing Lender shall not otherwise be required to determine whether the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.1 or 3.2 have been satisfied on the Funding Date applicable thereto prior to making any Canadian Swing Loan. The Canadian Swing Loans shall be secured by Agent's Liens, constitute Canadian Revolving Loans and Canadian Obligations hereunder, and bear interest at the rate applicable from time to time to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans. Upon the making of a Canadian Swing Loan, without further action by any party hereto, each Canadian Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from Swing Line Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender's Pro Rata Share in such Canadian Swing Loan. To the extent that there is no Settlement in accordance with Section 2.2(c) hereof, the applicable Swing Line Lender may at any time, require the applicable Canadian Lenders to fund their participations. From and after the date, if any, on which any Canadian Lender has funded its participation in any Canadian Swing Loan, Agent shall promptly distribute to such Canadian Lender, not less than weekly, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of all payments of principal and interest received by Agent in respect of such Canadian Swing Loan.

(iii) Making of Luxembourg Swing Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Swing Lender agrees that it will make a Luxembourg Revolving Loan (any such Luxembourg Revolving Loan made solely by Swing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.2(b)(iii) being referred to as a "Luxembourg Swing Loan") to Luxembourg Borrower from time to time in amounts requested by Luxembourg Borrower (or Administrative Borrower on behalf of Luxembourg Borrower) up to the aggregate amount outstanding equal to the Luxembourg Swing Loan Limit, provided, that, after giving effect to any such Luxembourg Swing Loan, the aggregate principal amount of the Luxembourg Revolving Loans, Luxembourg Swing Loans and Luxembourg Letter of Credit Usage outstanding at any time shall not exceed the lesser of the Luxembourg Borrowing Base at such time or Luxembourg Maximum Credit at such time. Each Luxembourg Swing Loan shall be deemed to be a Luxembourg Revolving Loan hereunder and shall be subject to all the terms and conditions (including Section 3) applicable to other Luxembourg Revolving Loans, except that all payments on any Swing Loan shall be payable to Swing Lender solely for its own account. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.2(d)(ii), Swing Lender shall not make and shall not be obligated to make any Luxembourg Swing Loan if Swing Lender has actual knowledge that (A) one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.1 or 3.2 will not be satisfied on the requested Funding Date for the applicable Borrowing, or (B) the requested Borrowing would exceed the Availability on such Funding Date. Swing Lender shall not otherwise be required to determine whether the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.1 or 3.2 have been satisfied on the Funding Date applicable thereto prior to making any Luxembourg Swing Loan. The Luxembourg Swing Loans shall be secured by Agent's Liens, constitute Luxembourg Revolving Loans and Luxembourg Obligations hereunder, and bear interest at the rate applicable from time to time to Revolving Loans that are EURIBOR Rate Loans. Upon the making of a Luxembourg Swing Loan, without further action by any party hereto, each Luxembourg Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from Swing Line Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender's Pro Rata Share in such Luxembourg Swing Loan. To the extent that there is no Settlement in accordance with Section 2.2(c) hereof, the applicable Swing Line Lender may at any time, require the applicable Luxembourg Lenders to fund their participations. From and after the date, if any, on which any Luxembourg Lender has funded its participation in any Luxembourg Swing Loan, Agent shall promptly distribute to such Luxembourg Lender, not less than weekly, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of all payments of principal and interest received by Agent in respect of such Luxembourg Swing Loan.

(i) Promptly after receipt of a request for a Borrowing of a Revolving Loan pursuant to Section 2.3(a), Agent shall notify the applicable Lenders by telecopy, telephone, or other similar form of transmission, of the requested Borrowing. Each applicable Lender shall make the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the requested Borrowing available to Agent in immediately available funds, to Agent's Account, Agent's Canadian Account or Agent's Luxembourg Account, as applicable, not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Funding Date applicable thereto. After Agent's receipt of the proceeds of such Revolving Loans from the applicable Lenders, Agent shall make the proceeds thereof available to Borrowers on the applicable Funding Date by transferring immediately available funds equal to such proceeds received by Agent to the Designated Account; provided, that, subject to the provisions of Section 2.2(d)(ii), Agent shall not request any Lender to make any Revolving Loan if it has knowledge that, and no Lender shall have the obligation to make, any Revolving Loan if (A) one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.1 or 3.2 will not be satisfied on the requested Funding Date for the applicable Borrowing unless such condition has been waived, or (B) the requested Borrowing would exceed the Availability on such Funding Date.

(ii) Unless Agent receives notice from a Lender prior to 9:00 a.m. on the date of a Borrowing, that such Lender will not make available as and when required hereunder to Agent for the account of Borrowers the amount of that Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing, Agent may assume that each Lender has made or will make such amount available to Agent in immediately available funds on the Funding Date and Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrowers on such date a corresponding amount. If any Lender shall not have made its full amount available to Agent in immediately available funds and if Agent in such circumstances has made available to Borrowers such amount, such Lender shall, no later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day following such Funding Date, make such amount available to Agent, together with interest at the Defaulting Lender Rate for each day during such period. A notice submitted by Agent to any Lender with respect to amounts owing under this Section 2.2(c)(ii) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such amount is so made available, such payment to Agent shall constitute such Lender's Revolving Loan on the date of Borrowing for all purposes of this Agreement. If such amount is not made available to Agent on the Business Day following the Funding Date, Agent will notify Borrowers of such failure to fund and, upon demand by Agent, Borrowers shall pay such amount to Agent for Agent's account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Revolving Loans composing such Borrowing.

(d) Protective Advances and Optional Overadvances.

(i) Any contrary provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document notwithstanding, but subject to Section 2.2(d)(iv), Agent hereby is authorized by Borrowers and the Lenders, from time to time in Agent's sole discretion, to make Revolving Loans to, or for the benefit of, Borrowers on behalf of the Lenders that Agent, in its Permitted Discretion deems necessary (A) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, or (B) to enhance the likelihood of repayment of the Obligations (other than the Bank Product Obligations) (any of the Revolving Loans described in this Section 2.3(d)(i) shall be referred to as "Protective Advances"), at any time (1) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, or (2) that any of the other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 are not satisfied. So long as no Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Agent shall use reasonable efforts to notify Administrative Borrower of the existence of any Protective Advances on or about the date when made.

(ii) Any contrary provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document notwithstanding, but subject to Section 2.2(d)(iv), the Lenders hereby authorize Agent or Swing Lender, as applicable, and either Agent or Swing Lender, as applicable, may, but is not obligated to, knowingly and intentionally, continue to make Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans) to Borrowers notwithstanding that an Overadvance exists or would be created thereby. In any event: (A) if any such Overadvance remains outstanding for more than thirty (30) days, unless otherwise agreed to by the Required Lenders, Borrowers shall immediately repay Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans, if applicable) in an amount sufficient to eliminate all such Overadvances, provided, that, in the event that the Overadvance arises as a result of the establishment of a new category of reserves or the change in the methodology of the calculation of an existing reserve, or as a result of the making of a Loan other than at the request of a Borrower (or Administrative Borrower on behalf of any Borrower), whether a Protective Advance or by charging the Loan Account, Borrowers shall not be required to repay such Overadvance until ten (10) days after notice thereof by Agent to Administrative Borrower and (B) after the date all such Overadvances have been eliminated, there must be at least five (5) consecutive days without the existence of any such Overadvances before intentional Overadvances are made. The foregoing provisions relating to making Overadvances are meant for the benefit of the Lenders and Agent and are not meant for the benefit of Borrowers, which shall continue to be bound by the provisions of Section 2.3. Each Lender with a US Commitment shall be obligated to settle with Agent (or Swing Lender, as applicable) as provided in Section 2.2(e) (or Section 2.13, as applicable) for the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of any unintentional Overadvances by Agent (or Swing Lender) to US Borrowers reported to such Lender, any intentional Overadvances to US Borrowers made as permitted under this Section 2.2(d)(ii), and any Overadvances to US Borrowers resulting from the charging to the US Loan Account of interest, fees, or Lender Group Expenses to the extent permitted by Section 2.4(c). Each Lender with a Canadian Commitment shall be obligated to settle with Agent (or Swing Lender, as applicable) as provided in Section 2.2(e) (or Section 2.13, as applicable) for the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of any unintentional Overadvances by Agent (or Swing Lender) to Canadian Borrowers reported to such Lender, any intentional Overadvances to Canadian Borrowers made as permitted under this Section 2.2(d)(ii), and any Overadvances to Canadian Borrowers resulting from the charging to the Canadian Loan Account of interest, fees, or Lender Group Expenses to the extent permitted by Section 2.4(c). Each Lender with a Luxembourg Commitment shall be obligated to settle with Agent (or Swing Lender, as applicable) as provided in Section 2.2(e) (or Section 2.13, as applicable) for the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of any unintentional Overadvances by Agent (or Swing Lender) to Luxembourg Borrower reported to such Lender, any intentional Overadvances to Luxembourg Borrower made as permitted under this Section 2.2(d)(ii), and any Overadvances to Luxembourg Borrower resulting from the charging to the Luxembourg Loan Account of interest, fees, or Lender Group Expenses to the extent permitted by Section 2.4(c). The Required Lenders may by written notice to Agent revoke the authority of Agent and Swing Lender to make future Overadvances pursuant to this Section 2.2(d) at any time. So long as no Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Agent shall use reasonable efforts to notify Administrative Borrower of the existence of any Overadvance on or about the date when made.

(iii) Any Protective Advance or Overadvance to Canadian Borrowers or Luxembourg Borrower may be made by Agent or by a Canadian Lender or a Luxembourg Lender, as applicable, in each case which is an Affiliate of Agent. Each Protective Advance and each Overadvance shall be deemed to be a Revolving Loan hereunder that is a Base Rate Loan (other than a Protective Advance or Overadvance made to Luxembourg Borrower which shall be a EURIBOR Rate Loan) and, prior to Settlement therefor, all payments on the Protective Advances shall be payable to Agent (or the Canadian Lender or Luxembourg Lender which made such Protective Advance) solely for its own account. The Protective Advances and Overadvances shall be repayable on demand, be secured by Agent's Liens, constitute Obligations hereunder, and, subject to the preceding sentence, bear interest at the rate applicable from time to time to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans. The ability of Agent to make Protective Advances is separate and distinct from its ability to make Overadvances and its ability to make Overadvances is separate and distinct from its ability to make Protective Advances. For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations on Agent's ability to make Protective Advances do not apply to Overadvances and the limitations on Agent's ability to make Overadvances do not apply to Protective Advances. The provisions of this Section 2.2(d) relating to making Protective Advances and Overadvances are for the exclusive benefit of Agent, Swing Lender, and the Lenders and are not intended to benefit Borrowers in any way.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, no Overadvance or Protective Advance may be made by Agent if such Revolving Loan would cause (A) the aggregate principal amount of Overadvances and Protective Advances outstanding to exceed an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the Maximum Credit; (B) the US Revolver Usage (excluding amounts charged to the US Loan Account for interest, fees or Lender Group Expenses) to exceed the US Maximum Credit, (C) the Canadian Revolver Usage (excluding amounts charged to the US Loan Account for interest, fees or Lender Group Expenses) to exceed the Canadian Maximum Credit or (D) the Luxembourg Revolver Usage (excluding amounts charged to the US Loan Account for interest, fees or Lender Group Expenses) to exceed the Luxembourg Maximum Credit.

(e) Settlement. It is agreed that each US Lender's funded portion of the US Revolving Loans is intended by the Lenders to equal, at all times, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the outstanding US Revolving Loans. It is agreed that each Canadian Lender's funded portion of the Canadian Revolving Loans is intended by the Lenders to equal, at all times, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Canadian Revolving Loans. It is agreed that each Luxembourg Lender's funded portion of the Luxembourg Revolving Loans is intended by the Lenders to equal, at all times, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Luxembourg Revolving Loans. Such agreement notwithstanding, Agent, Swing Lender, and the other Lenders agree (which agreement shall not be for the benefit of Borrowers) that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, settlement among the Lenders as to the Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans, Overadvances and Protective Advances) shall take place on a periodic basis in accordance with the following provisions:

(i) Agent shall request settlement ("Settlement") with the Lenders on a weekly basis, or on a more frequent basis if so determined by Agent (1) on behalf of Swing Lender, with respect to the outstanding Swing Loans, (2) for itself, with respect to the outstanding Protective Advances or Overadvances, and (3) with respect to the Loan Parties' Collections or payments received, as to each by notifying the Lenders by telecopy, telephone, or other similar form of transmission, of such requested Settlement, no later than 2:00 p.m. on the Business Day immediately prior to the date of such requested Settlement (the date of such requested Settlement being the "Settlement Date"). Such notice of a Settlement Date shall include a summary statement of the amount of outstanding Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans, Overadvances and Protective Advances) for the period since the prior Settlement Date. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein (including Section 2.13): (A) if the amount of the Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans, Overadvances and Protective Advances) made by a Lender that is not a Defaulting Lender exceeds such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans, Overadvances and Protective Advances) as of a Settlement Date, then Agent shall, by no later than 12:00 p.m. on the Settlement Date, transfer in immediately available funds to a Deposit Account of such Lender (as such Lender may designate), an amount such that each such Lender shall, upon receipt of such amount, have as of the Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans, Overadvances and Protective Advances), and (B) if the amount of the Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans, Overadvances and Protective Advances) made by a Lender is less than such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans and Protective Advances) as of a Settlement Date, such Lender shall no later than 12:00 p.m. on the Settlement Date transfer in immediately available funds to Agent's Account, Agent's Canadian Account or Agent's Luxembourg Account, as applicable, an amount such that each such Lender shall, upon transfer of such amount, have as of the Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans, Overadvances and Protective Advances). Such amounts made available to Agent under clause (B) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be applied against the amounts of the applicable Swing Loans, Overadvances or Protective Advances and, together with the portion of such Swing Loans, Overadvances or Protective Advances representing Swing Lender's Pro Rata Share thereof, shall constitute Revolving Loans of such Lenders. If any such amount is not made available to Agent by any Lender on the Settlement Date applicable thereto to the extent required by the terms hereof, Agent shall be entitled to recover for its account such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate.

(ii) In determining whether a Lender's balance of the Revolving Loans, Swing Loans, and Protective Advances is less than, equal to, or greater than such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans, Swing Loans, and Protective Advances as of a Settlement Date, Agent shall, as part of the relevant Settlement, apply to such balance the portion of payments actually received in good funds by Agent with respect to principal, interest, fees payable by Borrowers and allocable to the Lenders hereunder, and proceeds of Collateral.

(iii) Between Settlement Dates, Agent, to the extent Protective Advances or Swing Loans are outstanding, may pay over to Agent or Swing Lender or the Canadian Lender or Luxembourg Lender that is an Affiliate of Agent, as applicable, any Collections or payments received by Agent, that in accordance with the terms of this Agreement would be applied to the reduction of the Revolving Loans, for application to the Protective Advances, Overadvances or Swing Loans. Between Settlement Dates, Agent, to the extent no Protective Advances, Overadvances or Swing Loans are outstanding, may pay over to Swing Lender any Collections or payments received by Agent, that in accordance with the terms of this Agreement would be applied to the reduction of the Revolving Loans, for application to Swing Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans. If, as of any Settlement Date, Collections or payments of Loan Parties received since the then immediately preceding Settlement Date have been applied to Swing Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans other than to Swing Loans, as provided for in the previous sentence, Swing Lender shall pay to Agent for the accounts of the Lenders, and Agent shall pay to the Lenders (other than a Defaulting Lender if Agent has implemented the provisions of Section 13), to be applied to the outstanding Revolving Loans of such Lenders, an amount such that each such Lender shall, upon receipt of such amount, have, as of such Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans. During the period between Settlement Dates, Swing Lender with respect to Swing Loans, Agent with respect to Protective Advances and Overadvances, and each Lender with respect to the Revolving Loans other than Swing Loans, Overadvances and Protective Advances, shall be entitled to interest at the applicable rate or rates payable under this Agreement on the daily amount of funds employed by Swing Lender, Agent, or the Lenders, as applicable.

(iv) Anything in this Section 2.2(e) to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, Agent shall be entitled to refrain from remitting settlement amounts to the Defaulting Lender and, instead, shall be entitled to elect to act in accordance with Section 2.13.

(f) Register. Agent, as a non-fiduciary agent for Borrowers, shall maintain a register (the "Register") showing the principal amount of (and stated interest on) the Revolving Loans, owing to each Lender, including the Swing Loans owing to Swing Lender, and Protective Advances owing to Agent, the names and addresses of each Lender, and the interests therein of each Lender, from time to time and such register shall, absent manifest error, conclusively be presumed to be correct and accurate. The Register shall include copies of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to the Agent. 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.

(g) Independent Obligations. All Revolving Loans (other than Swing Loans, Overadvances and Protective Advances) shall be made by the Lenders contemporaneously and in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares. It is understood that (i) no Lender shall be responsible for any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make any Revolving Loan (or other extension of credit) hereunder, nor shall any Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligations hereunder, and (ii) no failure by any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall excuse any other Lender from its obligations hereunder.

2.3. Payments; Reductions of Commitments; Prepayments.

(a) Payments by Borrowers.

(i) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by any Borrower shall be made to Agent's Account, Agent's Canadian Account or Agent's Luxembourg Account, as applicable, for the account of the Lender Group and shall be made in immediately available funds, no later than 1:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Any payment received by Agent later than 1:00 p.m. shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue until (but not including) such following Business Day.

(ii) Unless Agent receives notice from Administrative Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that Borrowers will not make such payment in full as and when required, Agent may assume that Borrowers have made (or will make) such payment in full to Agent on such date in immediately available funds and Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent Borrowers do not make such payment in full to Agent on the date when due, each Lender severally shall repay to Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date repaid.

(iii) All payments in respect of the Canadian Obligations of Canadian Loan Parties shall be applied first to Canadian Obligations denominated in the same currency as the payments received and second to the Canadian Obligations denominated in the other currency; provided, that, Agent may, at its option (but is not obligated to), convert such currency received to the currency in which the Canadian Obligations are denominated at the Exchange Rate calculated by Agent in good faith on such date and Borrowers shall pay the costs of such conversion (or Agent may, at its option, charge such costs to the loan account of any Borrower maintained by such Agent).

(b) Apportionment and Application.

(i) So long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing and except as otherwise provided herein, all principal and interest payments received by Agent shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders (according to the unpaid principal balance of the Obligations to which such payments relate held by each Lender) entitled to such payments and all payments of fees and expenses received by Agent (other than fees or expenses that are for Agent's separate account or for the separate account of the Issuing Lender) shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders having a Pro Rata Share of the type of Commitment or Obligation to which a particular fee or expense relates. All payments to be made hereunder by Borrowers shall be remitted to Agent and all such payments, and all proceeds of Collateral received by Agent, shall be applied (subject to the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement), so long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing, to reduce the balance of the Revolving Loans outstanding and, thereafter, to Borrowers (to be wired to the Designated Account) or such other Person entitled thereto under applicable law (subject to Section 2.3(b)(vi) and Section 2.3(e)).

In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, if the conflict relates to the provisions of Section 2.13 and this Section 2.3, then the provisions of Section 2.13 shall control and govern, and if otherwise, then the terms and provisions of this Section 2.3 shall control and govern.

(ix) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, (i) Canadian Loan Parties and Luxembourg Borrower shall not be liable for any US Obligations, (ii) no Liens granted by Canadian Loan Parties or Luxembourg Borrower under any of the Loan Documents shall secure any US Obligations, (iii) no amounts payable on account of the Canadian Obligations or Luxembourg Obligations shall be payable to Agent's Account, and (iv) no US Obligations shall be charged to the Canadian Loan Account or Luxembourg Loan Account.

Once reduced, the Commitments may not be increased. Each such reduction of the Commitments shall reduce the Commitments of each Lender proportionately in accordance with its ratable share thereof.

(d) Optional Prepayments. Borrowers may prepay the principal of any Revolving Loan at any time in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (other than breakage and related costs associated with LIBOR Rate Loans and BA Funding Losses).

2.4. Interest Rates: Rates, Payments, and Calculations.

(a) Interest Rates. Except as provided in Section 2.4(b), all Obligations (except for undrawn Letters of Credit) that have been charged to the Loan Account pursuant to the terms hereof shall bear interest on the Daily Balance thereof as follows:

(i) if the relevant Obligation is a LIBOR Rate Loan, at a per annum rate equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Rate Loans,

(ii) if the relevant Obligation is a BA Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the BA Rate plus the Applicable Margin for BA Rate Loans,

(iii) if the relevant Obligation is a EURIBOR Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to EURIBOR plus the Applicable Margin for EURIBOR Rate Loans,

(iv) if the relevant Obligation is a Base Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for the Base Rate Loans, and

(v) otherwise, at a per annum rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans.

(b) Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and at the written election of the Required Lenders,

(i) all Obligations (except for undrawn Letters of Credit) that have been charged to the Loan Account pursuant to the terms hereof shall, upon two (2) Business Days' prior written notice by Agent to Administrative Borrower, bear interest on the Daily Balance thereof at a per annum rate equal to two (2) percentage points above the per annum rate otherwise applicable thereunder, and

(ii) the Letter of Credit fee provided for in Section 2.8(b) shall, upon two (2) Business Days' prior written notice by Agent to Administrative Borrower, be increased to two (2) percentage points above the per annum rate otherwise applicable hereunder.

(c) Payment. (i) Except to the extent expressly provided to the contrary, all interest (including interest on EURIBOR Rate Loans) and all fees (other than Letter of Credit fees payable hereunder and all fronting fees and all commissions, other fees, charges and expenses provided for in Section 2.9(i)) payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and all costs and expenses payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be due and payable, in arrears, on the first day of each month at any time that Obligations or Commitments are outstanding, and (ii) all Letter of Credit fees payable hereunder, and all fronting fees and all commissions, other fees, charges and expenses provided for in Section 2.9(i) shall be due and payable, in arrears, on the first Business Day of each month. Each Borrower hereby authorizes Agent to (i) without prior notice, charge to the Loan Account all interest and recurring fees when due and payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents or (ii) charge to the Loan Account costs, expenses and other amounts when due and payable, upon two (2) Business Days' prior notice to Administrative Borrower, provided, that such notice shall not be required at any time during a Cash Dominion Event. All such items properly charged to (i) the US Loan Account shall thereupon constitute US Revolving Loans hereunder and shall initially accrue interest at the rate then applicable to US Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans (unless and until converted into LIBOR Rate Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), (ii) the Canadian Loan Account shall thereupon constitute Canadian Revolving Loans hereunder and shall initially accrue interest at the rate applicable to Canadian Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans (unless and until converted into LIBOR Rate Loans or BA Rate Loans, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) or (iii) the Luxembourg Loan Account shall thereupon constitute Luxembourg Revolving Loans hereunder and shall accrue interest at the rate applicable to Luxembourg Revolving Loans that are EURIBOR Rate Loans.

(d) Computation. Interest and fees shall be calculated on the basis of (i) in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans, EURIBOR Rate Loans and fees, a three hundred sixty (360) day year, (ii) in the case of BA Rate Loans, a three hundred and sixty-five (365) day year, and (iii) in the case of Base Rate Loans, a three hundred and sixty-five (365) or three hundred and sixty-six (366) day year, as applicable, and in each case based on actual days elapsed. The interest rate on non-contingent Obligations (other than LIBOR Rate Loans, EURIBOR Rate Loans and BA Rate Loans) shall increase or decrease by an amount equal to each increase or decrease in the Base Rate effective on the date any change in such Base Rate is effective. For purposes of disclosure under the Interest Act (Canada), where interest is calculated pursuant hereto at a rate based upon a year of three hundred sixty (360), three hundred and sixty-five (365) or three hundred and sixty-six (366) days, as the case may be (the "First Rate"), the rate or percentage of interest on a yearly basis is equivalent to such First Rate multiplied by the actual number of days in the year divided by three hundred sixty (360), three hundred and sixty-five (365) or three hundred and sixty-six (366), as the case may be.

(e) Intent to Limit Charges to Maximum Lawful Rate. In no event shall the interest rate or rates payable under this Agreement, plus any other amounts paid in connection herewith, exceed the highest rate permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable. Each Borrower and the Lender Group, in executing and delivering this Agreement, intend legally to agree upon the rate or rates of interest and manner of payment stated within it; provided, that, anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if such rate or rates of interest or manner of payment exceeds the maximum allowable under applicable law, then, ipso facto, as of the date of this Agreement, Borrowers are and shall be liable only for the payment of such maximum amount as is allowed by law, and payment received from Borrowers in excess of such legal maximum, whenever received, shall be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Obligations to the extent of such excess.

Crediting Payments. The receipt of any payment item by Agent shall not be considered a payment on account unless such payment item is a wire transfer of immediately available federal funds made to Agent's Account, Agent's Canadian Account or Agent's Luxembourg Account, as applicable, or unless and until such payment item is honored when presented for payment. Should any payment item not be honored when presented for payment, then Borrowers shall be deemed not to have made such payment and interest shall be calculated accordingly. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, any payment item shall be deemed received by Agent only if it is received into Agent's Account, Agent's Canadian Account or Agent's Luxembourg Account, as applicable, on a Business Day on or before 1:00 p.m. If any payment item is received into Agent's Account, Agent's Canadian Account or Agent's Luxembourg Account, as applicable, on a non-Business Day or after 1:00 p.m. on a Business Day, it shall be deemed to have been received by Agent as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day.

Designated Account. Agent is authorized to make the Revolving Loans, and Issuing Lender is authorized to issue the Letters of Credit, under this Agreement based upon telephonic or other instructions received from anyone purporting to be an Authorized Person and reasonably believed by Agent to be an Authorized Person or, without instructions, if pursuant to Section 2.4(c). Borrowers agree to establish and maintain the Designated Account with the Designated Account Bank for the purpose of receiving the proceeds of the Revolving Loans requested by Borrowers and made by Agent or the Lenders hereunder. Unless otherwise agreed by Agent and Borrowers, any Revolving Loan or Swing Loan requested by Borrowers and made by Agent or the Lenders hereunder shall be made to the Designated Account.

Maintenance of Loan Account; Statements of Obligations. Agent shall maintain an account on its books in the name of US Borrowers (the "US Loan Account") on which US Borrowers will be charged with all US Revolving Loans (including Protective Advances, Overadvances and Swing Loans) made by Agent, Swing Lender, or the Lenders to US Borrowers or for US Borrowers' account, the US Letters of Credit issued or arranged by Issuing Lender for US Borrowers' account, and with all other payment Obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents due and owing by US Loan Parties, including, accrued interest, fees and expenses, and Lender Group Expenses.

Letters of Credit.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon the request of Administrative Borrower made in accordance herewith, and prior to the Maturity Date, the Issuing Lender agrees to issue, or to cause an Underlying Issuer (including, as Issuing Lender's agent) to issue, a requested standby Letter of Credit or commercial Letter of Credit for the account of any Borrower, which Letter of Credit may be related to the business of any Subsidiary of Parent; provided, that, to the extent a Letter of Credit is for the benefit of, or in connection with, the business of a Non-Loan Party (other than in the case of a Letter of Credit for the benefit of the business of Parent and its Subsidiaries generally), as of the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit and after giving effect thereto, (i) the Borrower for whose account the Letter of Credit is issued would be permitted to make a Permitted Investment in such Non-Loan Party under clause (d)(ii)(D) of the definition of Permitted Investments, such that all of the conditions set forth in clause (d)((ii)(D) of the definition of Permitted Investments shall be satisfied as to any such Letter of Credit, treating such Letter of Credit as a Permitted Investment for this purpose (except for the conditions in clauses (2) and (4) of such clause (d)(ii)(D)), and (ii) the sum of (A) the aggregate amount of all such Letters of Credit, plus (B) the maximum amount of the liability of Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries under all guarantees of leases of Non-Loan Parties under clause (j) of the definition of Permitted Investments, shall not exceed $50,000,000 outstanding at any one time. If Issuing Lender, at its option, elects to cause an Underlying Issuer to issue a requested Letter of Credit, then Issuing Lender agrees that it will enter into arrangements relative to the reimbursement of such Underlying Issuer (which may include, among, other means, by becoming an applicant with respect to such Letter of Credit or entering into undertakings which provide for reimbursements of such Underlying Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit; each such obligation or undertaking, irrespective of whether in writing, a "Reimbursement Undertaking") with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Underlying Issuer. By submitting a request to Issuing Lender for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested that Issuing Lender issue or that an Underlying Issuer issue the requested Letter of Credit and to have requested Issuing Lender to issue a Reimbursement Undertaking with respect to such requested Letter of Credit if it is to be issued by an Underlying Issuer (it being expressly acknowledged and agreed by each Borrower that Borrowers are and shall be deemed to be applicants (within the meaning of Section 5‑102(a)(2) of the Code) with respect to each Underlying Letter of Credit). Each request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or the amendment, renewal, or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit, shall be (1) irrevocable and made in writing by an Authorized Person, and delivered to Agent and the Issuing Lender via hand delivery, telefacsimile, or other electronic method of transmission reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender and reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension, and (2) subject to Issuing Lender's authentication procedures. Each such request shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Lender and (i) shall specify (A) the amount of such Letter of Credit and whether such Letter of Credit shall be a US Letter of Credit, a Canadian Letter of Credit or a Luxembourg Letter of Credit, (B) in the case of a Canadian Letter of Credit, whether such Canadian Letter of Credit shall be denominated in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars, (C) the date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension of such Letter of Credit, (D) the proposed expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (E) the name and address of the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit, and (F) such other information (including, the conditions of drawing, and in the case of an amendment, renewal, or extension, identification of the Letter of Credit to be so amended, renewed, or extended) as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew, or extend such Letter of Credit, and (ii) shall be accompanied by such Issuer Documents as the Issuing Lender may request or require, to the extent that such requests or requirements are consistent with the Issuer Documents that Issuing Lender generally requests for Letters of Credit in similar circumstances. Issuing Lender's records of the content of any such request will be conclusive absent manifest error. Each US Letter of Credit shall be denominated in US Dollars. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue or cause the issuance of a Letter of Credit or to issue a Reimbursement Undertaking in respect of an Underlying Letter of Credit, in either case, that supports the obligations of a Loan Party in respect of a lease of Real Property or an employment contract, (a) in the case of a Letter of Credit in connection with such a lease, in an amount greater than the amount equal to (A) the amount of rent under such lease, without acceleration, for the greater of (1) one year or (2) the amount equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the rent for the then remaining term of such lease, but not to exceed three (3) years, minus (B) the amount of any cash or other collateral to secure the obligations of a Loan Party in respect of such lease and (b) in the case of a Letter of Credit in connection with an employment contract, in an amount greater than the compensation provided by such contract, without acceleration, for a one year period.

(b) The Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue a Letter of Credit or a Reimbursement Undertaking in respect of an Underlying Letter of Credit, in either case, if any of the following would result after giving effect to the requested issuance:

(i) the US Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the US Borrowing Base less the outstanding amount of US Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans),

(ii) the US Letter of Credit Usage would exceed $50,000,000 minus the sum of the amount of Canadian Letter of Credit Usage and the amount of Luxembourg Letter of Credit Usage at such time,

(iii) the US Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the US Maximum Credit less the outstanding amount of US Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans),

(iv) the Canadian Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the Canadian Borrowing Base less the outstanding amount of Canadian Revolving Loans,

(v) the Canadian Letter of Credit Usage would exceed $5,000,000,

(vi) the Canadian Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the Canadian Maximum Credit less the outstanding amount of Canadian Revolving Loans,

(vii) the Luxembourg Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the Luxembourg Borrowing Base less the outstanding amount of Luxembourg Revolving Loans,

(viii) the Luxembourg Letter of Credit Usage would exceed $5,000,000, or

(ix) the Luxembourg Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the Luxembourg Maximum Credit less the outstanding amount of Luxembourg Revolving Loans.

(c) In the event there is a Defaulting Lender as of the date of any request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue or arrange for such Letter of Credit to the extent (i) the Defaulting Lender's Letter of Credit Exposure with respect to such Letter of Credit may not be reallocated pursuant to Section 2.13(a)(iv), or (ii) Issuing Lender has not otherwise entered into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to it and Borrowers to eliminate Issuing Lender's risk with respect to the participation in such Letter of Credit of the Defaulting Lender, which arrangements may include Borrowers cash collateralizing such Defaulting Lender's Letter of Credit Exposure in accordance with Section 2.13(a)(v). Additionally, Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue or extend a Letter of Credit if (A) any order, judgment, or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall, by its terms, purport to enjoin or restrain Issuing Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over Issuing Lender shall prohibit or request that Issuing Lender refrain from the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular, or (B) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of Issuing Lender applicable to letters of credit generally.

(d) Any Issuing Lender (other than Wells Fargo or any of its Affiliates) shall notify Agent in writing no later than the Business Day prior to the Business Day on which such Issuing Lender issues any Letter of Credit. In addition, each Issuing Lender (other than Wells Fargo or any of its Affiliates) shall, on the first Business Day of each week, submit to Agent a report detailing the daily undrawn amount of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender during the prior calendar week. Borrowers and the Lender Group hereby acknowledge and agree that all Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute US Letters of Credit, Canadian Letters of Credit or Luxembourg Letters of Credit (as applicable) under this Agreement on and after the Effective Date with the same effect as if such Existing Letters of Credit were issued by Issuing Lender or an Underlying Issuer at the request of US Borrowers, Canadian Borrowers or Luxembourg Borrower (as applicable) on the Effective Date. Without limiting any of their respective rights or remedies, the Issuing Lender with respect to any such Existing Letter of Credit, and Agent and the other Lenders, shall have recourse to (a) Parent in connection with such Existing Letters of Credit that are US Letters of Credit to the same extent as if Parent had been the original applicant and/or account party with respect thereto, (b) Canadian Borrowers in connection with such Existing Letters of Credit that are Canadian Letters of Credit to the same extent as if Canadian Borrowers had been the original applicants and/or account parties with respect thereto and (c) Luxembourg Borrower in connection with such Existing Letters of Credit that are Luxembourg Letters of Credit to the same extent as if Luxembourg Borrower had been the original applicants and/or account parties with respect thereto. Each Letter of Credit shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender. If Issuing Lender makes a payment under a US Letter of Credit or an Underlying Issuer makes a payment under a US Underlying Letter of Credit, US Borrowers shall pay to Agent an amount equal to the applicable US Letter of Credit Disbursement on (i) the date such US Letter of Credit Disbursement is made, if Administrative Borrower has received notice of such US Letter of Credit Disbursement prior to 11:00 a.m. on such date, or (ii) the next Business Day if such notice is not received prior to 11:00 a.m. on such date and in the absence of such payment, the amount of the US Letter of Credit Disbursement immediately and automatically shall be deemed to be a US Revolving Loan hereunder (notwithstanding any failure to satisfy any condition precedent set forth in Section 3) and, initially, shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to US Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans. If Issuing Lender makes a payment under a Canadian Letter of Credit or an Underlying Issuer makes a payment under a Canadian Underlying Letter of Credit, Canadian Borrowers shall pay to Agent an amount equal to the applicable Canadian Letter of Credit Disbursement on (i) the date such Canadian Letter of Credit Disbursement is made, if Administrative Borrower has received notice of such Canadian Letter of Credit Disbursement prior to 11:00 a.m. on such date, or (ii) the next Business Day if such notice is not received prior to 11:00 a.m. on such date and, in the absence of such payment on the date when due, the amount of the Canadian Letter of Credit Disbursement immediately and automatically shall be deemed to be a Canadian Revolving Loan hereunder (notwithstanding any failure to satisfy any condition precedent set forth in Section 3) and, initially, unless later converted to BA Rate Loans, shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to Canadian Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans. If Issuing Lender makes a payment under a Luxembourg Letter of Credit or an Underlying Issuer makes a payment under a Luxembourg Underlying Letter of Credit, Luxembourg Borrower shall pay to Agent an amount equal to the applicable Luxembourg Letter of Credit Disbursement on (i) the date such Luxembourg Letter of Credit Disbursement is made, if Administrative Borrower has received notice of such Luxembourg Letter of Credit Disbursement prior to 11:00 a.m. on such date, or (ii) the next Business Day if such notice is not received prior to 11:00 a.m. on such date and, in the absence of such payment on the date when due, the amount of the Luxembourg Letter of Credit Disbursement immediately and automatically shall be deemed to be a Luxembourg Revolving Loan hereunder (notwithstanding any failure to satisfy any condition precedent set forth in Section 3) and shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to Luxembourg Revolving Loans that are EURIBOR Rate Loans. If a Letter of Credit Disbursement is deemed to be a Revolving Loan hereunder (notwithstanding any failure to satisfy any condition precedent set forth in Section 3), Borrowers' obligation to pay the amount of such Letter of Credit Disbursement to Issuing Lender shall be automatically converted into an obligation to pay the resulting Revolving Loan. Promptly following receipt by Agent of any payment from Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph, Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section 2.9(d) to reimburse the Issuing Lender, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Lender as their interests may appear.

(e) Promptly following receipt of a notice of a US Letter of Credit Disbursement pursuant to Section 2.9(d), each Lender with a US Commitment agrees to fund its Pro Rata Share of any US Revolving Loan deemed made pursuant to Section 2.9(d) on the same terms and conditions as if Borrowers had requested the amount thereof as a Revolving Loan and Agent shall promptly pay to Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. By the issuance of a US Letter of Credit or a Reimbursement Undertaking related thereto (or an amendment, renewal or extension of a US Letter of Credit or a Reimbursement Undertaking related thereto) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Lender or the Lenders with Commitments, the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have granted to each Lender with a US Commitment, and each Lender with a US Commitment shall be deemed to have purchased, a participation in each US Letter of Credit issued by Issuing Lender and each Reimbursement Undertaking related thereto, in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such US Letter of Credit or Reimbursement Undertaking, and each such Lender agrees to pay to Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of any US Letter of Credit Disbursement made by Issuing Lender or an Underlying Issuer under the applicable US Letter of Credit.

Promptly following receipt of a notice of a Canadian Letter of Credit Disbursement pursuant to Section 2.9(d), each Lender with a Canadian Commitment agrees to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Canadian Revolving Loan deemed made pursuant to Section 2.9(d) on the same terms and conditions as if Borrowers had requested the amount thereof as a Revolving Loan and Agent shall promptly pay to Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. By the issuance of a Canadian Letter of Credit or a Reimbursement Undertaking related thereto (or an amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit or a Reimbursement Undertaking related thereto) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Lender or the Lenders with Canadian Commitments, the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have granted to each Lender with a Canadian Commitment, and each Lender with a Canadian Commitment shall be deemed to have purchased, a participation in each Canadian Letter of Credit issued by Issuing Lender and each Reimbursement Undertaking related thereto, in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such Canadian Letter of Credit or Reimbursement Undertaking related thereto, and each such Canadian Lender agrees to pay to Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of any Canadian Letter of Credit Disbursement made by Issuing Lender or an Underlying Issuer under the applicable Canadian Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender with a Canadian Commitment hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of each Canadian Letter of Credit Disbursement made by Issuing Lender or an Underlying Issuer and not reimbursed by Borrowers on the date due as provided in Section 2.9(d), or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded (or that Agent or Issuing Lender elects, based upon the advice or counsel to refund) to Canadian Borrowers for any reason. Promptly following receipt of a notice of a Luxembourg Letter of Credit Disbursement pursuant to Section 2.9(d), each Lender with a Luxembourg Commitment agrees to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Luxembourg Revolving Loan deemed made pursuant to Section 2.9(d) on the same terms and conditions as if Borrowers had requested the amount thereof as a Revolving Loan and Agent shall promptly pay to Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. By the issuance of a Luxembourg Letter of Credit or a Reimbursement Undertaking related thereto (or an amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit or a Reimbursement Undertaking related thereto) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Lender or the Lenders with Luxembourg Commitments, the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have granted to each Lender with a Luxembourg Commitment, and each Lender with a Luxembourg Commitment shall be deemed to have purchased, a participation in each Luxembourg Letter of Credit issued by Issuing Lender and each Reimbursement Undertaking related thereto, in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such Luxembourg Letter of Credit or Reimbursement Undertaking related thereto, and each such Luxembourg Lender agrees to pay to Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of any Luxembourg Letter of Credit Disbursement made by Issuing Lender or an Underlying Issuer under the applicable Luxembourg Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender with a Luxembourg Commitment hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of each Luxembourg Letter of Credit Disbursement made by Issuing Lender or an Underlying Issuer and not reimbursed by Borrowers on the date due as provided in Section 2.9(d), or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded (or that Agent or Issuing Lender elects, based upon the advice or counsel to refund) to Luxembourg Borrower for any reason. Each Lender with a Commitment acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to deliver to Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, an amount equal to its respective Pro Rata Share of each Letter of Credit Disbursement pursuant to this Section 2.9(e) shall be absolute and unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default or Default or the failure to satisfy any condition set forth in Section 3. If any such Lender fails to make available to Agent the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of a Letter of Credit Disbursement as provided in this Section, such Lender shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender and Agent (for the account of the Issuing Lender) shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate until paid in full.

(f) Each Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save, defend, and hold the Lender Group and each Underlying Issuer harmless from any damage, loss, cost, expense, or liability (other than Taxes, which shall be governed by Section 16), and reasonable and documented attorneys' fees of (i) one US counsel to Agent, (ii) one Canadian counsel to Agent, (iii) one Luxembourg counsel to Agent, (iv) one regulatory counsel to Agent (if necessary) and (v) one local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction selected by Agent (if necessary) and, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and such additional counsel is necessary as a result of conflicts of interest), one additional counsel to the Lender Group or any Underlying Issuer arising out of or in connection with any Reimbursement Undertaking or any Letter of Credit; provided, that, (i) no Borrower shall be obligated hereunder to indemnify the Lender Group, Issuing Lender or any Underlying Issuer for any loss, cost, expense, or liability that results from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender, any other member of the Lender Group, or any Underlying Issuer as determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction and (ii) Canadian Borrowers and Luxembourg Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify for any such loss, cost, expense or liability arising under or in connection with a US Letter of Credit.

Each Borrower understands that the Reimbursement Undertakings may require Issuing Lender to indemnify the Underlying Issuer for certain costs or liabilities arising out of claims by a Borrower against such Underlying Issuer. Each Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save, defend, and hold Issuing Lender and the other members of the Lender Group harmless with respect to any loss, cost, expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses), or liability (other than Taxes, which shall be governed by Section 16) incurred by them as a result of the Issuing Lender's indemnification of an Underlying Issuer; provided, that, (i) no Borrower shall be obligated hereunder to indemnify any such person for any such loss, cost, expense, or liability to the extent that it is caused by the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such person as determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction and (ii) Canadian Borrowers and Luxembourg Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify for any such loss, cost, expense or liability arising under or in connection with a US Letter of Credit.

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit,

(j) If by reason of (i) any Change in Law, or (ii) compliance by the Issuing Lender, any other member of the Lender Group, or Underlying Issuer with any direction, request, or requirement (irrespective of whether having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority or monetary authority including, Regulation D of the Federal Reserve Board as from time to time in effect (and any successor thereto):

(i) any reserve, deposit, or similar requirement is or shall be imposed or modified in respect of any Letter of Credit issued or caused to be issued hereunder or hereby, or

(ii) there shall be imposed on the Issuing Lender, any other member of the Lender Group, or Underlying Issuer any other condition regarding any Letter of Credit or Reimbursement Undertaking,

and the result of the foregoing is to increase, directly or indirectly, the cost to the Issuing Lender, any other member of the Lender Group, or an Underlying Issuer of issuing, making, participating in, or maintaining any Reimbursement Undertaking or Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount receivable in respect thereof, then, and in any such case, Agent may, at any time within a reasonable period after the additional cost is incurred or the amount received is reduced, notify Administrative Borrower, and Borrowers shall pay within thirty (30) days after demand therefor, such amounts as Agent may specify to be necessary to compensate the Issuing Lender, any other member of the Lender Group, or an Underlying Issuer for such additional cost or reduced receipt, together with interest on such amount from the date of such demand until payment in full thereof at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder; provided, that, (A) no Borrower shall be required to provide any compensation pursuant to this Section 2.9(j) for any such amounts incurred more than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date on which the demand for payment of such amounts is first made to Borrowers and (B) if an event or circumstance giving rise to such amounts is retroactive, then the one hundred eighty (180) day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. The determination by Agent of any amount due pursuant to this Section 2.9(j), as set forth in a certificate setting forth the calculation thereof in reasonable detail, shall, in the absence of manifest or demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding on all of the parties hereto.

(k) Each standby Letter of Credit shall expire not later than the date that is 12 months after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit; provided, that any standby Letter of Credit may provide for the automatic extension thereof for any number of additional periods each of up to one year in duration; provided further, that with respect to any Letter of Credit which extends beyond the Maturity Date, Letter of Credit Collateralization shall be provided therefor on or before the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date. Each commercial Letter of Credit shall expire on the earlier of (i) 120 days after the date of the issuance of such commercial Letter of Credit and (ii) five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date.

(l) If (i) any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, or (ii) Availability shall at any time be less than zero, then on the Business Day following the date when the Administrative Borrower receives notice from Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Obligations has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders with Letter of Credit Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total Letter Credit Exposure) demanding Letter of Credit Collateralization pursuant to this Section 2.11(l), Borrowers shall provide Letter of Credit Collateralization with respect to the then existing Letter of Credit Usage. If Borrowers are required to provide Letter of Credit Collateralization hereunder as a result of this clause (l), any cash collateral held by Agent as a result of such Letter of Credit Collateralization shall be returned by Agent to Borrowers promptly, but in no event later than five (5) Business Days, after the date such condition no longer exists. If Borrowers fail to provide Letter of Credit Collateralization as required by this Section 2.11(l), the Revolving Lenders may (and, upon direction of Agent, shall) advance, as Revolving Loans the amount of the cash collateral required pursuant to the Letter of Credit Collateralization provision so that the then existing Letter of Credit Usage is cash collateralized in accordance with the Letter of Credit Collateralization provision (whether or not the Revolver Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 3 are satisfied).

(m) Unless otherwise expressly agreed by Issuing Lender and Borrowers when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the UCP shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit.

(n) Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have acted with due diligence and reasonable care if Issuing Lender's conduct is in accordance with Standard Letter of Credit Practice or in accordance with this Agreement.

(o) In the event of a direct conflict between the provisions of this Section 2.9 and any provision contained in any Issuer Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 2.9 shall control and govern.

(p) The provisions of this Section 2.9 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment in full of the Obligations with respect to any Letters of Credit that remain outstanding.

(q) At Borrowers' costs and expense, Borrowers shall execute and deliver to Issuing Lender such additional certificates, instruments and/or documents and take such additional action as may be reasonably requested by Issuing Lender to enable Issuing Lender to issue, or cause an Underlying Issuer to issue, any Letter of Credit pursuant to this Agreement and related Issuer Document, to protect, exercise and/or enforce Issuing Lender's rights and interests under this Agreement or to give effect to the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any Issuer Document. Each Borrower irrevocably appoints Issuing Lender as its attorney-in-fact and authorizes Issuing Lender, without notice to Borrowers, to execute and deliver ancillary documents and letters customary in the letter of credit business that may include but are not limited to advisements, indemnities, checks, bills of exchange and issuance documents. The power of attorney granted by the Borrowers is limited solely to such actions related to the issuance, confirmation or amendment of any Letter of Credit and to ancillary documents or letters customary in the letter of credit business. This appointment is coupled with an interest.

LIBOR Option; EURIBOR Rate Loans.

(a) Interest and Interest Payment Dates. In lieu of having interest charged at the rate based upon the Base Rate, US Borrowers and Canadian Borrowers shall have the option, subject to Section 2.10(b) below (the "LIBOR Option") to have interest on all or a portion of the Revolving Loans be charged (whether at the time when made (unless otherwise provided herein), upon conversion from a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan, or upon continuation of a LIBOR Rate Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan) at a rate of interest based upon the LIBOR Rate. Interest on LIBOR Rate Loans shall be payable on the earliest of (i) the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto; (ii) the date on which all or any portion of the Obligations are accelerated pursuant to the terms hereof, or (iii) the date on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to the terms hereof. On the last day of each applicable Interest Period, unless Borrowers properly have exercised the LIBOR Option with respect thereto, the interest rate applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan automatically shall convert to the rate of interest then applicable to Base Rate Loans of the same type hereunder. At any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at the written election of the Required Lenders, Borrowers no longer shall have the option to request that Revolving Loans bear interest at a rate based upon the LIBOR Rate.

(b) LIBOR Election.

(i) Borrowers may, at any time and from time to time, so long as Administrative Borrower has not received a notice from Agent, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, of the election of the Required Lenders to terminate the right of Borrowers to exercise the LIBOR Option during the continuance of such Event of Default, elect to exercise the LIBOR Option by notifying Agent prior to 1:00 p.m. at least three (3) Business Days prior to the commencement of the proposed Interest Period (the "LIBOR Deadline"). Notice of Borrowers' election of the LIBOR Option for a permitted portion of the Revolving Loans and an Interest Period pursuant to this Section shall be made by delivery to Agent of a LIBOR Notice received by Agent before the LIBOR Deadline, or by telephonic notice received by Agent before the LIBOR Deadline (to be confirmed by delivery to Agent of a LIBOR Notice received by Agent prior to 5:00 p.m. on the same day). Promptly upon its receipt of each such LIBOR Notice, Agent shall provide a copy thereof to each of the affected Lenders.

(ii) Each LIBOR Notice shall be irrevocable and binding on each Borrower. In connection with each LIBOR Rate Loan, each Borrower shall indemnify, defend, and hold Agent and the Lenders harmless against any loss, cost, or expense actually incurred by Agent or any Lender as a result of (A) the payment or required assignment of any principal of any LIBOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (B) the conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (C) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any LIBOR Rate Loan on the date specified in any LIBOR Notice delivered pursuant hereto (such losses, costs, or expenses, "Funding Losses"). A certificate of Agent or a Lender delivered to Borrowers setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that Agent or such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrowers shall pay such amount to Agent or the Lender, as applicable, within thirty (30) days of the date of its receipt of such certificate. If a payment of a LIBOR Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period would result in a Funding Loss, Agent may, in its sole discretion at the request of Borrowers, hold the amount of such payment as cash collateral in support of the Obligations until the last day of such Interest Period and apply such amounts to the payment of the applicable LIBOR Rate Loan on such last day, it being agreed that Agent has no obligation to so defer the application of payments to any LIBOR Rate Loan and that, in the event that Agent does not defer such application, Borrowers shall be obligated to pay any resulting Funding Losses.

(iii) Unless Agent, in its sole discretion, agrees otherwise, Borrowers shall have not more than ten (10) LIBOR Rate Loans, EURIBOR Rate Loans and/or BA Rate Loans in effect at any given time. Borrowers only may exercise the LIBOR Option for proposed LIBOR Rate Loans of at least $1,000,000.

(c) Conversion; Prepayment. Borrowers may convert LIBOR Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans or prepay LIBOR Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans at any time; provided, that, in the event that LIBOR Rate Loans are converted or prepaid on any date that is not the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, including as a result of any prepayment through the required application by Agent of proceeds of Loan Parties' Collections in accordance with Section 2.3(b) or for any other reason, including early termination of the term of this Agreement or acceleration of all or any portion of the Obligations pursuant to the terms hereof, each Borrower shall indemnify, defend, and hold Agent and the Lenders and their Participants harmless against any and all Funding Losses in accordance with Section 2.10 (b)(ii).

(d) Special Provisions Applicable to LIBOR Rate and EURIBOR Rate.

(i) The LIBOR Rate and the EURIBOR Rate may be adjusted by Agent with respect to any Lender on a prospective basis to take into account any additional or increased costs to such Lender of maintaining or obtaining any Eurodollar deposits or increased costs (other than Taxes which shall be governed by Section 16), in each case, due to changes in applicable law occurring subsequent to the commencement of the then applicable Interest Period, including any Changes in Law and changes in the reserve requirements imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor), which additional or increased costs would increase the cost of funding or maintaining loans bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate or EURIBOR Rate. In any such event, the affected Lender shall give Borrowers and Agent notice of such a determination and adjustment and Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender and, upon its receipt of the notice from the affected Lender, Borrowers may, by notice to such affected Lender (A) require such Lender to furnish to Borrowers a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for adjusting such LIBOR Rate or EURIBOR Rate and the method for determining the amount of such adjustment, or (B) repay the LIBOR Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender with respect to which such adjustment is made (together with any amounts due under Section 2.10(b)(ii)).

(ii) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.10(d)(iii) below, in the event that any change in market conditions or Change in Law, in the reasonable opinion of any Lender, make it unlawful or impractical for such Lender to fund or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans or to continue such funding or maintaining, or to determine or charge interest rates at the LIBOR Rate or EURIBOR Rate, such Lender shall give notice of such changed circumstances to Agent and Borrowers and Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender and (A) in the case of any LIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender that are outstanding, the date specified in such Lender's notice shall be deemed to be the last day of the Interest Period of such LIBOR Rate Loans, (B) in the case of EURIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender that are outstanding, commencing on the date of such notice, interest upon EURIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans, and (C) Borrowers shall not be entitled to elect the LIBOR Option or request Euro Denominated Loans until such Lender determines that it would no longer be unlawful or impractical to do so.

(iii) Effect of Benchmark Transition Event.

(A) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Agent and Administrative Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the LIBOR Rate or EURIBOR, as applicable, with a Benchmark Replacement, together with any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.

(B) Any such amendment will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and Administrative Borrower so long as Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. No replacement of the LIBOR Rate or EURIBOR, as applicable, with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 2.10(d)(iii) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

(C) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, Agent will have the right to amend this Agreement to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

(D) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. Agent will promptly notify Administrative Borrower and the Lenders of (1) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date, (2) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (3) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (4) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by Agent pursuant to this Section 2.10(d)(iii) will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.10(d)(iii).

(E) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon Administrative Borrower's receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, Administrative Borrower may, (1) in the case of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, revoke any request for a borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, Administrative Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans, and (2) in the case of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to EURIBOR, revoke any request for a borrowing of EURIBOR Rate Loans to be made during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, Administrative Borrower will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, and all then-existing Euro Denominated Loans will be deemed to have converted to Base Rate Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period, the component of Base Rate based upon the LIBOR Rate will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.

(e) No Requirement of Matched Funding. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, neither Agent, nor any Lender, nor any of their Participants, is required actually to acquire eurodollar deposits to fund or otherwise match fund any Obligation as to which interest accrues at the LIBOR Rate or EURIBOR Rate.

2.11. Capital Requirements.

(a) If, after the date hereof, any Lender determines that (i) any Change in Law regarding capital or reserve requirements for banks or bank holding companies, or (ii) compliance by such Lender or its parent bank holding company with any guideline, request or directive of any such entity regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or not having the force of law), has the effect of reducing the return on such Lender's or such holding company's capital as a consequence of such Lender's Commitments hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender's or such holding company's then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy and assuming the full utilization of such entity's capital) by any amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then such Lender may notify Administrative Borrower and Agent thereof. Following receipt of such notice, Borrowers agree to pay such Lender on demand the amount of such reduction of return of capital as and when such reduction is determined, payable within thirty (30) days after presentation by such Lender of a statement in the amount and setting forth in reasonable detail such Lender's calculation thereof and the assumptions upon which such calculation was based (which statement shall be deemed true and correct absent manifest error). In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. 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; provided, that, (A) no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any reductions in return incurred more than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrowers of such Change in Law giving rise to such reductions and of such Lender's intention to claim compensation therefore and (B) if such claim arises by reason of a Change in Law that is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. For purposes of this Section 2.11 (a), the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority), the Bank for International Settlements and all rules, regulations, orders, requests, guidelines or directives in connection therewith are deemed to have been enacted and become effective after the date of this Agreement.

(b) If any Lender requests additional or increased costs referred to in Section 2.10(d)(i) or amounts under Section 2.15(d)(i) or sends a notice under Section 2.10(d)(ii) or Section 2.15(d)(ii) relative to changed circumstances (any such Lender, an "Affected Lender"), then such Affected Lender shall use reasonable efforts to promptly designate a different one of its lending offices or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices or branches, if (i) in the reasonable judgment of such Affected Lender, such designation or assignment would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.10(d)(i) or Section 2.15(d)(i), as applicable, or would eliminate the illegality or impracticality of funding or maintaining LIBOR Rate Loans, EURIBOR Rate Loans or BA Rate Loans and (ii) in the reasonable judgment of such Affected Lender, such designation or assignment would not subject it to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to it. Borrowers agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by such Affected Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. If, after such reasonable efforts, such Affected Lender does not so designate a different one of its lending offices or assign its rights to another of its offices or branches so as to eliminate Borrowers' obligation to pay any future amounts to such Affected Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(d)(i) or Section 2.15(d)(i), as applicable, or to enable Borrowers to obtain LIBOR Rate Loans, EURIBOR Rate Loans or BA Rate Loans, then Borrowers (without prejudice to any amounts then due to such Affected Lender under Section 2.10(d)(i) or Section 2.15(d)(i), as applicable) may, unless prior to the effective date of any such assignment the Affected Lender withdraws its request for such additional amounts under Section 2.10(d)(i) or Section 2.15(d)(i), as applicable, or indicates that it is no longer unlawful or impractical to fund or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, EURIBOR Rate Loans or BA Rate Loans, may seek a substitute Lender reasonably acceptable to Agent to purchase the Obligations owed to such Affected Lender and such Affected Lender's Commitments hereunder (a "Replacement Lender"), and if such Replacement Lender agrees to such purchase, such Affected Lender shall assign to the Replacement Lender its Obligations and Commitments, pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, and upon such purchase by the Replacement Lender, such Replacement Lender shall be deemed to be a "Lender" for purposes of this Agreement and such Affected Lender shall cease to be a "Lender" for purposes of this Agreement.

2.12. Increase in US Maximum Credit or Canadian Maximum Credit.

(a) Administrative Borrower may, at any time, deliver a written request to Agent to increase the US Maximum Credit or the Canadian Maximum Credit, as applicable. Any such written request shall specify the amount of the increase in the US Maximum Credit or the Canadian Maximum Credit, as applicable, that Borrowers are requesting, provided, that, (i) the aggregate amount of all such increases which result in an increase to the US Maximum Credit or the Maximum Credit shall not exceed $50,000,000 (for the sake of clarity, it is understood that increases solely to the Canadian Maximum Credit shall not count against such $50,000,000 cap), (ii) any such request shall be for an increase of not less than $10,000,000, (iii) any such request shall be irrevocable, (iv) in no event shall there be more than four (4) such increases during the term of this Agreement, and (v) no Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing.

(b) Upon the receipt by Agent of any such written request, Agent shall notify each of the US Lenders or each of the Canadian Lenders, as applicable, of such request and each US Lender and each Canadian Lender, as applicable, shall have the option (but not the obligation) to increase the amount of its US Commitment or Canadian Commitment, as applicable, by an amount up to its Pro Rata Share of the amount of the increase thereof requested by Administrative Borrower as set forth in the notice from Agent to such US Lender or Canadian Lender. Each US Lender or each Canadian Lender, as applicable, shall notify Agent within fifteen (15) days after the receipt of such notice from Agent whether it is willing to so increase its US Commitment or Canadian Commitment, as applicable, and if so, the amount of such increase; provided, that, (i) the minimum increase in the US Commitments of each such US Lender providing the additional US Commitments, or in the Canadian Commitments of each such Canadian Lender providing the additional Canadian Commitments, shall equal or exceed $2,500,000, and (ii) no US Lender or Canadian Lender, as applicable, shall be obligated to provide such increase in its US Commitment or Canadian Commitment and the determination to increase the US Commitment of a US Lender or the Canadian Commitment of a Canadian Lender shall be within the sole and absolute discretion of such US Lender or Canadian Lender. If the aggregate amount of the increases in the US Commitments received from the US Lenders or the aggregate amount of the increases in the Canadian Commitments received from the Canadian Lenders, as applicable, does not equal or exceed the amount of the increase in the US Maximum Credit or Canadian Maximum Credit, as applicable, requested by Borrowers, Agent may seek additional increases from US Lenders or Canadian Lenders, as applicable, or US Commitments or Canadian Commitments, as applicable, from such Eligible Transferees as it may determine, after consultation with Borrowers. In the event US Lenders or Canadian Lenders, as applicable (or US Lenders or Canadian Lenders, as applicable, and any such Eligible Transferees, as the case may be), have committed in writing to provide increases in their US Commitments or Canadian Commitments, as applicable, or new US Commitments or new Canadian Commitments in an aggregate amount in excess of the increase in the US Maximum Credit or Canadian Maximum Credit requested by Administrative Borrower or permitted hereunder, Agent shall then have the right to allocate such commitments, first to US Lenders or Canadian Lenders, as applicable, and then to Eligible Transferees, in such amounts and manner as Agent may determine, after consultation with Borrowers.

(c) The US Maximum Credit or the Canadian Maximum Credit, as applicable, shall be increased by the amount of the increase in the applicable US Commitments or Canadian Commitments from Lenders or new US Commitments or Canadian Commitments, as applicable, from Eligible Transferees, in each case selected in accordance with Section 2.12(b) above, for which Agent has received Assignment and Acceptances thirty (30) days after the date of the request by Administrative Borrower for the increase or such earlier date as Agent and Administrative Borrower may agree (but subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth below), whether or not the aggregate amount of the increase in US Commitments and new US Commitments, as the case may be, or in Canadian Commitments and new Canadian Commitments, as the case may be less than, equal to or exceed the amount of the increase in the US Maximum Credit or Canadian Maximum Credit, as applicable, requested by Administrative Borrower in accordance with the terms hereof (provided, that, in the event that the aggregate amount of the increase in Commitments and/or new Commitments offered by Lenders or Eligible Transferees in response to the request of Agent as described above is greater than the aggregate amount requested, Administrative Borrower may, at its option, elect to increase the Commitments to such greater amount, so long as Administrative Borrower gives prompt and timely written notice to Agent of the exercise of such option), effective on the date that each of the following conditions have been satisfied:

(i) Agent shall have received from each US Lender or Canadian Lender, as applicable, or Eligible Transferee that is providing an additional US Commitment or Canadian Commitment as part of the increase in the US Maximum Credit or Canadian Maximum Credit, an Assignment and Acceptance duly executed by such US Lender or Canadian Lender, as applicable, or Eligible Transferee and Borrowers, provided, that, the aggregate US Commitments or Canadian Commitments set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance(s) shall be not less than $1,000,000;

(ii) the conditions precedent to the making of Revolving Loans set forth in Section 3.2 shall be satisfied as of the date of the increase in the US Maximum Credit or the Canadian Maximum Credit, both before and after giving effect to such increase;

(iii) such increase in the US Maximum Credit or the Canadian Maximum Credit, as applicable, on the date of the effectiveness thereof, shall not violate any applicable law, regulation or order or decree of any court or other Governmental Authority and shall not be enjoined, temporarily, preliminarily or permanently;

(iv) there shall have been paid to each US Lender or Canadian Lender, as applicable, and Eligible Transferee providing an additional US Commitment or Canadian Commitment in connection with such increase in the US Maximum Credit or Canadian Maximum Credit all fees and expenses due and payable to such Person on or before the effectiveness of such increase; and

(v) there shall have been paid to Agent, for the account of the Agent and US Lenders or Canadian Lenders, as applicable (in accordance with any agreement among them) all fees and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) due and payable pursuant to any of the Loan Documents on or before the effectiveness of such increase.

(d) As of the effective date of any such increase in the US Maximum Credit or Canadian Maximum Credit, each reference to the term US Commitments and US Maximum Credit herein, as applicable, or the term Canadian Commitments and Canadian Maximum Credit, as applicable, and in any of the other Loan Documents shall be deemed amended to mean the amount of the US Commitments and US Maximum Credit or the amount of the Canadian Commitments and Canadian Maximum Credit, as applicable, specified in the most recent written notice from Agent to Administrative Borrower of the increase in the US Commitments and US Maximum Credit, as applicable, or in the increase in the Canadian Commitments and Canadian Maximum Credit, as applicable.

(e) Effective on the date of each increase in the US Maximum Credit pursuant to this Section 2.12, each reference in this Agreement to an amount of US Excess Availability shall, automatically and without any further action, be deemed to be increased so that the ratio of the amount of US Excess Availability to the amount of the US Maximum Credit after such increase in the US Maximum Credit remains the same as the ratio of such the amount of US Excess Availability to the amount of the US Maximum Credit prior to such increase in the US Maximum Credit.

(f) Effective on the date of each increase in the Canadian Maximum Credit pursuant to this Section 2.12, each reference in this Agreement to an amount of Canadian Excess Availability shall, automatically and without any further action, be deemed to be increased so that the ratio of the amount of Canadian Excess Availability to the amount of the Canadian Maximum Credit after such increase in the Canadian Maximum Credit remains the same as the ratio of such the amount of Canadian Excess Availability to the amount of the Canadian Maximum Credit prior to such increase in the Canadian Maximum Credit.

2.13. Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender's right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definitions of Required Lenders and Supermajority Lenders and as set forth in Section 14.1(e).

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 8 or otherwise) or received by Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 16.1 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Issuing Lender or Swing Lender hereunder; third, to provide cash collateral for the Issuing Lender's Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.13(e) below; fourth, as Administrative Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing), to the funding of any Revolving Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Agent; fifth, if so determined by Agent and Administrative Borrower, to be held in a Deposit Account and released pro rata in order to (A) satisfy such Defaulting Lender's potential future funding obligations with respect to Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans, Protective Advances and Overadvances) under this Agreement and (B) provide cash collateral for the benefit of Issuing Lender with respect to future Fronting Exposure of Issuing Lender; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to Lenders, the Issuing Lender or Swing Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Lender or Swing Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing, to the payment of any amounts owing to Parent as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Parent against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, that, if (A) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Revolving Loans or Letter of Credit Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (B) such Revolving Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 were satisfied and waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Revolving Loans of, and Letter of Credit Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Revolving Loans of, or Letter of Credit Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit and Swing Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments without giving effect to Section 2.13(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.13(e) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees.

(A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any unused line fee under Section 2.8(c) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender).

(B) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive letter of credit fees under Section 2.8(b) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.13(e).

(C) With respect to any Letter of Credit fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, Borrowers shall (A) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender's participation in Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit or Swing Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (c) below, (B) pay to Issuing Lender and Swing Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to Issuing Lender's or Swing Lender's Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (C) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender's participation in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender's Commitment) but only to the extent that (A) the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless Borrowers shall have otherwise notified the Agent at such time, Borrowers shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (B) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate outstanding Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit, Swing Loans and Overadvances of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender's Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender's increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swing Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (A) first, prepay Swing Loans in an amount equal to Swing Lender's Fronting Exposure and (B) second, provide cash collateral for the Issuing Lender's Fronting Exposure in accordance with Section 2.13(e).

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrowers, Agent, Swing Lender and Issuing Lender agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments (without giving effect to Section 2.13(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided, that, (i) no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and (ii) except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender's having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) New Swing Loans/Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) Swing Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Loan unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Loan and (ii) no Issuing Lender or Underlying Issuer shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

(d) Counterparties. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Lender shall not be a counterparty with respect to any Hedge Agreement which gives rise to a Hedge Obligation entered into while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender.

(e) Cash Collateral. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one (1) Business Day following the written request of Agent or Issuing Lender (with a copy to Agent), Borrowers shall provide cash collateral to secure the Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.13(a)(iv) above and any cash collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than one hundred three percent (103%) of the Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Lender.

(i) Grant of Security Interest. Borrowers, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to, for the benefit of the Issuing Lender, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash collateral as security for such Defaulting Lender's obligation to fund participations in respect of Obligations in connection with Letters of Credit, to be applied pursuant to clause (e)(ii) below. If at any time Agent determines that such cash collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than Agent and Issuing Lender as herein provided (other than the Permitted Liens), or that the total amount of such cash collateral is less than the amount specified above, Borrowers shall, promptly upon demand by Agent, pay or provide to Agent additional cash collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any cash collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(ii) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, cash collateral provided under this Section in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender's obligation to fund participations in respect of Obligations in connection with Letters of Credit (including, as to cash collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the cash collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(iii) Termination of Requirement. Cash collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Issuing Lender's Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as cash collateral pursuant to this Section following (A) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (B) the determination by Agent and Issuing Lender that there exists excess cash collateral; provided that, (1) the Person providing cash collateral and Issuing Lender may agree that cash collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations and (2) to the extent that such cash collateral was provided by Borrowers, such cash collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

2.14. Joint and Several Liability of US Borrowers.

(a) Each US Borrower is accepting joint and several liability hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Lender Group under this Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each Borrower and in consideration of the undertakings of the other US Borrowers to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations.

(b) Each US Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Borrowers to the extent required hereunder, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including any Obligations arising under this Section 2.14), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each US Borrower without preferences or distinction among them.

(c) If and to the extent that any Borrower shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event the other Borrowers (solely to the extent they are US Borrowers) will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation until such time as all of the Obligations are paid in full.

(d) The Obligations of each US Borrower under the provisions of this Section 2.14 constitute the absolute and unconditional, full recourse Obligations of such US Borrower enforceable against such US Borrower to the full extent of its properties and assets, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the provisions of this Agreement (other than this Section 2.14(d)) or any other circumstances whatsoever.

(e) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each US Borrower hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability to the extent provided in this Section 2.14, notice of any Revolving Loans or Letters of Credit issued under or pursuant to this Agreement, notice of the occurrence of any Default, Event of Default, or of any demand for any payment under this Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by Agent or Lenders under or in respect of any of the Obligations, any requirement of diligence or to mitigate damages and, generally, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement). Each US Borrower hereby assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the payment of any of the Obligations for which it may become liable under this Section 2.14, the acceptance of any payment of any of the Obligations for which it may become liable under this Section 2.14, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by Agent or Lenders at any time or times in respect of any default by any Borrower in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by Agent or Lenders in respect of any of the Obligations for which it may become liable under this Section 2.14, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any security for any of the Obligations for which it may become liable under this Section 2.14 or the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each US Borrower assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of any Agent or Lender with respect to the failure by any Borrower to comply with any of its respective Obligations, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder, which might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.14 afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving any Borrower, in whole or in part, from any of its Obligations under this Section 2.14, it being the intention of each US Borrower that, so long as any of the Obligations (or Canadian Obligations in the case of Canadian Borrowers or Luxembourg Obligations in the case of Luxembourg Borrower) hereunder remain unsatisfied, the Obligations of such US Borrower under this Section 2.14 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance. The Obligations of each US Borrower under this Section 2.14 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any other Borrower or any Agent or Lender.

(f) Each US Borrower represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders that such US Borrower is currently informed of the financial condition of the US Borrowers, the Canadian Borrowers or the Luxembourg Borrower, as applicable, and of all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations for which such US Borrower may become liable under this Section 2.14. Each US Borrower further represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders that such US Borrower has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents. Each US Borrower hereby covenants that such US Borrower will continue to keep informed of the financial condition of the US Borrowers, the Canadian Borrowers or the Luxembourg Borrower, as applicable, and of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Obligations for which such US Borrower may become liable under this Section 2.14.

(g) The provisions of this Section 2.14 are made for the benefit of Agent, each member of the Lender Group, each Bank Product Provider, and their respective successors and assigns, and may be enforced by it or them from time to time against any or all US Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of Agent, any member of the Lender Group, any Bank Product Provider, or any of their successors or assigns first to marshal any of its or their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against any US Borrower or to exhaust any remedies available to it or them against any US Borrower or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 2.14 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 2.14 will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made.

(h) Each US Borrower hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of contribution or subrogation against any other US Borrower, the Canadian Borrowers or the Luxembourg Borrower, as applicable, with respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, any payments made by it to Agent or Lenders with respect to any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor until such time as all of the Obligations have been paid in full in cash. Any claim which any US Borrower may have against any other Borrower with respect to any payments to any Agent or any member of the Lender Group hereunder or under any of the Bank Product Agreements are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations and, in the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceeding under the laws of any jurisdiction relating to any Borrower, its debts or its assets, whether voluntary or involuntary, all such Obligations shall be paid in full in cash before any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any other Borrower therefor.

(i) Each US Borrower hereby agrees that after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, such US Borrower will not demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any indebtedness of any other Borrower owing to such US Borrower until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, such US Borrower shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by such US Borrower as trustee for Agent, and such Borrower shall deliver any such amounts to Agent for application to the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.3(b).

(j) For the avoidance of doubt, each member of the Lender Group and each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and notwithstanding that each US Borrower may be jointly and severally liable for all Obligations (including the Canadian Obligations and the Luxembourg Obligations), the Obligations of the Canadian Borrowers and the Luxembourg Borrower under the Loan Documents shall be separate and distinct from the US Obligations and are expressly limited to the Canadian Obligations plus the Luxembourg Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing, each member of the Lender Group and each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the liability of any Canadian Borrower or the Luxembourg Borrower for the payment and performance of its covenants, representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be several from but not joint with the Obligations of the US Borrowers; the Canadian Borrowers and the Luxembourg Borrower shall not guarantee any US Obligations; and the Canadian Collateral and the Luxembourg Collateral shall not secure or be applied in satisfaction, by way of payment, prepayment, or otherwise, of all or any portion of the US Obligations.

2.15. BA Rate Option.

(a) Interest and Interest Payment Dates. In lieu of having interest charged at the rate based upon the Base Rate, Canadian Borrowers shall have the option, subject to Section 2.15(b) below (the "BA Rate Option") to have interest on all or a portion of the Canadian Revolving Loans to be made in Canadian Dollars be charged (whether at the time when made (unless otherwise provided herein), upon conversion from a Base Rate Loan to a BA Rate Loan, or upon continuation of a BA Rate Loan as a BA Rate Loan) at a rate of interest based upon the BA Rate. Interest on BA Rate Loans shall be payable on the earliest of (i) the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto; (ii) the date on which all or any portion of the Obligations become due and payable pursuant to the terms hereof, or (iii) the date on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to the terms hereof. On the last day of each applicable Interest Period, unless Canadian Borrowers properly have exercised the BA Rate Option with respect thereto, the interest rate applicable to such BA Rate Loan automatically shall convert to the rate of interest then applicable to Base Rate Loans in Canadian Dollars. At any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at the written election of the Required Lenders, Borrowers no longer shall have the option to request that Canadian Revolving Loans made in Canadian Dollars bear interest at a rate based upon the BA Rate.

(b) BA Rate Election.

(i) Canadian Borrowers may, at any time and from time to time, so long as Borrowers have not received a notice from Agent, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, of the election of the Required Lenders to terminate the right of Canadian Borrowers to exercise the BA Rate Option during the continuance of such Event of Default, elect to exercise the BA Rate Option by notifying Agent prior to 1:00 p.m., at least three (3) Business Days prior to the commencement of the proposed Interest Period (the "BA Rate Deadline"). Notice of Canadian Borrowers' election of the BA Rate Option for a portion of the Revolving Loans to be made in Canadian Dollars and an Interest Period pursuant to this Section 2.15(b) shall be made by delivery to Agent of a BA Rate Notice received by Agent before the BA Rate Deadline, or by telephonic notice received by Agent before the BA Rate Deadline (to be confirmed by delivery to Agent of a BA Rate Notice received by Agent prior to 5:00 p.m., on the same day). Promptly upon its receipt of each such BA Rate Notice, Agent shall provide a copy thereof to each of the affected Lenders.

(ii) Each BA Rate Notice shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrowers. In connection with each BA Rate Loan, Borrowers shall, jointly and severally (subject to Section 2.14(j)) indemnify, defend, and hold Agent and the Lenders harmless against any loss, cost, or expense actually incurred by Agent or any Lender as a result of (A) the payment of any principal of any BA Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (B) the conversion of any BA Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (C) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any BA Rate Loan on the date specified in any BA Rate Notice delivered pursuant hereto (such losses, costs, or expenses, "BA Funding Losses"). A certificate of Agent or a Lender delivered to Administrative Borrower setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that Agent or such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrowers shall pay such amount to Agent or the Lender, as applicable, within thirty (30) days of the date of its receipt of such certificate. If a payment of a BA Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period would result in a BA Funding Loss, Agent may, in its sole discretion at the request of Administrative Borrower, hold the amount of such payment as cash collateral in support of the Obligations until the last day of such Interest Period and apply such amounts to the payment of the applicable BA Rate Loan on such last day, it being agreed that Agent has no obligation to so defer the application of payments to any BA Rate Loan and that, in the event that Agent does not defer such application, Borrowers shall be obligated to pay any resulting BA Funding Losses.

(iii) Borrowers shall have not more than ten (10) BA Rate Loans, LIBOR Rate Loans and/or EURIBOR Rate Loans in effect at any given time. Borrowers may only exercise the BA Rate Option for proposed BA Rate Loans of at least C$1,000,000.

(c) Conversion. Borrowers may convert Base Rate Loans in Canadian Dollars to BA Rate Loans at any time by exercising the BA Rate Option. Borrowers may convert BA Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans at any time; provided, that, in the event that BA Rate Loans are converted or prepaid on any date that is not the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, including as a result of any automatic prepayment through the required application by Agent of proceeds of Borrowers' and their Restricted Subsidiaries' Collections in accordance with Section 2.3(b) or for any other reason, including early termination of the term of this Agreement or acceleration of all or any portion of the Obligations pursuant to the terms hereof, Borrowers shall, jointly and severally (subject to Section 2.14(j)) indemnify, defend, and hold Agent and the Lenders harmless against any and all BA Funding Losses in accordance with Section 2.15(b)(ii).

(d) Special Provisions Applicable to BA Rate.

(i) The BA Rate may be adjusted by Agent with respect to any Lender on a prospective basis to take into account any additional or increased costs to such Lender of maintaining or obtaining any funding for BA Rate Loans or increased costs, in each case, due to changes in applicable law occurring subsequent to the commencement of the then applicable Interest Period, which additional or increased costs would increase the cost of funding or maintaining loans bearing interest at the BA Rate. In any such event, the affected Lender shall give Administrative Borrower and Agent notice of such a determination and adjustment and Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender and, upon its receipt of the notice from the affected Lender, Administrative Borrower may, by notice to such affected Lender (A) require such Lender to furnish to Administrative Borrower a statement setting forth the basis for adjusting such BA Rate and the method for determining the amount of such adjustment, or (B) repay the BA Rate Loans with respect to which such adjustment is made (together with any amounts due under Section 2.15(b)(ii)).

(ii) In the event that any change in market conditions or any Change in Law, shall at any time after the date hereof, in the reasonable opinion of any Lender, make it unlawful or impractical for such Lender to fund or maintain BA Rate Loans or to continue such funding or maintaining, or to determine or charge interest rates at the BA Rate, such Lender shall give notice of such changed circumstances to Agent and Administrative Borrower and Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender and (A) in the case of any BA Rate Loans of such Lender that are outstanding, the date specified in such Lender's notice shall be deemed to be the last day of the Interest Period of such BA Rate Loans, and interest upon the BA Rate Loans of such Lender thereafter shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans, and (B) Borrowers shall not be entitled to elect the BA Rate Option until such Lender determines that it would no longer be unlawful or impractical to do so.

(e) No Requirement of Matched Funding. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, neither Agent, nor any Lender, nor any of their Participants, is required actually to issue bills of exchange or depository notes to fund or otherwise match fund any Obligation as to which interest accrues at the BA Rate.

Circumstances Affecting Euro. In connection with any request for a Euro Denominated Loan or Letter of Credit denominated in Euros ("Euro Letters of Credit" and, together with the Euro Denominated Loans, the "Euro Extensions") or a continuation or extension thereof, if the introduction of, or any change in, any Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Luxembourg Lender (or the lending office of such Luxembourg Lender) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency or any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Luxembourg Lender (or any of their applicable lending office) to honor its obligations to make or maintain any Euro Extensions, then Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Administrative Borrower and the other Lenders. Thereafter, until Agent notifies the Luxembourg Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist, the obligation of such Luxembourg Lender to make Euro Extensions or any continuation or extension thereof, as applicable, shall be suspended until such Luxembourg Lender determines that it would no longer be unlawful or impractical to do so, provided that the Borrowers shall continue to be entitled to make elections for Euro Extensions from any other Luxembourg Lenders; and Luxembourg Borrower shall have the option, in its sole discretion and regardless of whether it can meet the conditions set forth in Section 3.2, to either (i) repay in full (or cause to be repaid in full) the then outstanding principal amount of such Euro Denominated Loans, together with accrued interest thereon, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Euro Denominated Loans, or (ii) request that the Agent convert the then outstanding principal amount of each such Euro Denominated Loan to its US Dollar Equivalent which shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans but may be converted to a LIBOR Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.10; by way of clarification, such conversion shall not constitute a making of a Loan or extension of credit hereunder; provided that if Luxembourg Borrower elects to make such conversion, Luxembourg Borrower shall pay to Agent and Lenders any and all costs, fees and other expenses, if any, incurred by Agent and Lenders in effecting such conversion.

Designated Canadian Borrowers. Administrative Borrower may at any time, upon not less than thirty (30) Business Days’ notice from Administrative Borrower to the Agent (or such shorter period as agreed to by the Agent), designate one or more wholly-owned Subsidiaries of Parent organized under the laws of Canada or a province or territory of Canada (each, an “Applicant Canadian Borrower”), as a Canadian Borrower by delivering written notice thereof to the Agent (which shall promptly deliver such notice to each Lender). The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that prior to any Applicant Canadian Borrower becoming a Canadian Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have received (i) each applicable document described in Schedule ‎3.1 modified as appropriate to relate to such Canadian Borrower, together with such other documents or information as may be reasonably required by the Agent and any Lender, (ii) each applicable document required to be delivered with respect to Applicant Canadian Borrower pursuant to Section 5.11, and (iii) such documentation and information with respect to such Canadian Borrower required under applicable “know-your-customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act as may be reasonably required by the Agent and any Lender. Promptly following receipt of all such documents or information, the Agent shall send a notice to Administrative Borrower and the Lenders specifying the effective date upon which the Applicant Canadian Borrower shall constitute a Canadian Borrower for purposes hereof, whereupon such Canadian Borrower shall be permitted to receive Canadian Revolving Loans hereunder, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and shall be a Canadian Borrower for all purposes of this Agreement.


3.	CONDITIONS; TERM OF AGREEMENT.

Conditions Precedent to the Initial Extension of Credit. The obligation of each Lender to make its initial extension of credit provided for hereunder is subject to the fulfillment, to the satisfaction of Agent and each Lender, of each of the conditions precedent set forth on Schedule 3.1 (the delivery to Agent of an executed signature page to this Agreement by a Lender being conclusively deemed to be its satisfaction with, or waiver of, the conditions precedent).

Conditions Precedent to all Extensions of Credit. The obligation of the Lender Group (or any member thereof) to make any Revolving Loans hereunder (or to issue any Letter of Credit or amend or extend any Letter of Credit) at any time shall be subject to the following conditions precedent:

(a) as of the date of any such Revolving Loan (or other extension of credit) and after giving effect thereto, the representations and warranties of Parent or its Subsidiaries contained in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents that are qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect shall be true and correct and the representations and warranties that are not so qualified shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such extension of credit, as though made on and as of such date (except to the extent that such representations and warranties relate solely to an earlier date);

(b) as of the date of any such Revolving Loan (or other extension of credit) and after giving effect thereto, no Default or Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing;

(c) as of the date of any such Revolving Loan (or other extension of credit) and after giving effect thereto, the (i) outstanding principal amount of US Revolving Loans and US Swing Loans plus the US Letter of Credit Usage shall not exceed the lesser of the US Borrowing Base or the US Maximum Credit, (ii) outstanding principal amount of Canadian Revolving Loans and Canadian Swing Loans plus the Canadian Letter of Credit Usage shall not exceed the lesser of the Canadian Borrowing Base or the Canadian Maximum Credit and (iii) outstanding principal amount of Luxembourg Revolving Loans and Luxembourg Swing Loans plus the Luxembourg Letter of Credit Usage shall not exceed the lesser of the Luxembourg Borrowing Base or the Luxembourg Maximum Credit; and

Maturity. This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect for a term ending on February 24, 2022 (the "Maturity Date"), subject to the rights of the Lender Group to terminate the Commitments as provided in Section 9 and the rights of Borrowers as provided in Section 3.5.

Effect of Maturity. On the Maturity Date, all commitments of the Lender Group to provide additional credit hereunder shall automatically be terminated and all of the Obligations immediately shall become due and payable without notice or demand and Borrowers shall be required to repay all of the Obligations in full. No termination of the obligations of the Lender Group (other than payment in full of the Obligations and termination of the Commitments) shall relieve or discharge any Loan Party of its duties, obligations, or covenants hereunder or under any other Loan Document and Agent's Liens in the Collateral shall continue to secure the Obligations and shall remain in effect until all Obligations have been paid in full and the Commitments have been terminated. When all of the Obligations have been paid in full and the Lender Group's obligations to provide additional credit under the Loan Documents have been terminated irrevocably, Agent will, at Borrowers' sole expense, execute and deliver any termination statements, lien releases, discharges of security interests, and other similar discharge or release documents (and, if applicable, in recordable form) as are reasonably necessary to release, as of record, Agent's Liens and all notices of Liens previously filed by Agent and Loan Parties shall execute and deliver to Agent a release of Agent and Lenders in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent.

Early Termination by Borrowers. Borrowers have the option, at any time upon reasonable prior written notice to Agent (but in any event not less than three (3) Business Days), to terminate this Agreement and terminate the Commitments hereunder by repaying to Agent all of the Obligations in full.

Conditions Subsequent. The obligation of the Lender Group (or any member thereof) to continue to make Revolving Loans (or otherwise extend credit hereunder) is subject to the fulfillment, on or before the date applicable thereto, of the conditions subsequent set forth on Schedule 3.6 (the failure by Borrowers to so perform or cause to be performed such conditions subsequent as and when required by the terms thereof (unless such date is extended by Agent, which Agent may do without obtaining the consent of the other members of the Lender Group), shall constitute an Event of Default).

Neither any Loan Party nor any Subsidiary thereof has incurred any material obligation in connection with the termination of or withdrawal from any Foreign Plan. The present value of the accrued benefit liabilities (whether or not vested) under each Foreign Plan that is funded, determined as of the end of the most recently ended fiscal year of the applicable Loan Party or Subsidiary, as applicable, on the basis of actuarial assumptions, each of which is reasonable, did not exceed the current value of the property of such Foreign Plan by a material amount, and for each Foreign Plan that is not funded, the obligations of such Foreign Plan are properly accrued.

5.	AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS.

Each Loan Party covenants and agrees that, until termination of all of the Commitments and payment in full of the Obligations, the Loan Parties shall and shall cause each of their Restricted Subsidiaries to comply with each of the following:

5.1. Financial Statements, Reports, Certificates.

(a) (i) Deliver to Agent, with copies to each Lender, each of the financial statements, reports, and other items set forth on Schedule 5.1 no later than the times specified therein, (ii) maintain proper books of record and account, in which full, true and correct entries in conformity with GAAP consistently applied shall be made of all financial transactions and matters involving the assets and business of Parent or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, and (iii) cause each Subsidiary of a Loan Party to have the same fiscal year as Parent.

(b) Documents required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 5.1 (to the extent any such documents are included in materials otherwise filed with the SEC) may be delivered electronically and if so delivered, shall be deemed to have been delivered on the date (i) on which Parent posts such documents, or provides a link thereto on Parent's website on the Internet at the website address listed on Schedule 5.1; or (ii) on which such documents are posted on Parent's behalf on an Internet or intranet website, if any, to which each Lender and Agent have access (whether a commercial, third-party website or whether sponsored by Agent); provided, that: (i) upon the written request of Agent, Parent shall deliver paper copies of such documents to Agent or any Lender that requests Parent to deliver such paper copies until a written request to cease delivering paper copies is given by Agent or such Lender and (ii) Parent shall notify Agent (by telecopier or electronic mail) of the posting of any such documents and provide to Agent by electronic mail electronic versions (i.e., soft copies) of such documents. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in every instance Parent shall be required to provide paper copies of the Compliance Certificates required by this Section 5.1 to Agent. Except for such Compliance Certificates, Agent shall have no obligation to request the delivery or to maintain copies of the documents referred to above, and in any event shall have no responsibility to monitor compliance by Parent with any such request for delivery, and each Lender shall be solely responsible for requesting delivery to it or maintaining its copies of such documents.

(c) Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges that (i) Agent and/or the Arrangers will make available to the Lenders materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Loan Parties hereunder (collectively, "Borrower Materials") by posting Borrower Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the "Platform") and (ii) certain of the Lenders (each, a "Public Lender") may have personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to Parent or its Affiliates, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such Persons' securities. Parent hereby agrees that so long as Parent is the issuer of any outstanding debt or equity securities that are registered or issued pursuant to a private offering or is actively contemplating issuing any such securities it will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Borrower Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (A) all such Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked "PUBLIC" which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word "PUBLIC" shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (B) by marking Borrower Materials "PUBLIC," Parent shall be deemed to have authorized Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to Parent or its securities for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws (provided, that, to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Confidential Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 17.9); (C) all Borrower Materials marked "PUBLIC" are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated "Public Side Information;" and (D) Agent and the Arrangers shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked "PUBLIC" as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated "Public Side Information."

Collateral Reporting. Provide Agent (and if so requested by Agent, with copies for each Lender) with each of the reports set forth on Schedule 5.2 at the times specified therein. In addition, each Borrower agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts in cooperation with Agent to facilitate and establish a system of electronic collateral reporting in order to provide electronic reporting of each of the items set forth on such Schedule.

Existence. Except as otherwise permitted under Section 6.3 or Section 6.4, at all times maintain and preserve in full force and effect its existence (including being in good standing in its jurisdiction of organization) and all rights and franchises, licenses and permits material to its business where the failure to do so has or could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect; provided, that, no Loan Party or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be required to preserve any such right or franchise, licenses or permits if such Person's Board of Directors (or similar governing body) shall determine that the failure to preserve it could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Maintenance of Properties. Except as otherwise permitted under Section 6.3 or Section 6.4, maintain and preserve all of its assets that are necessary for the proper conduct of its business in good working order and condition, except for (a) ordinary wear, tear, and casualty, (b) Permitted Dispositions, or (c) in the case of assets other than the Revolving Loan Priority Collateral where the failure to do so has or could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, and comply with the provisions of all leases to which it is a party as lessee, so as to prevent the loss or forfeiture thereof, (i) unless such provisions are the subject of a Permitted Protest, or (ii) where the failure to so comply has or could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

Taxes. Cause all material assessments and Taxes imposed, levied, or assessed against any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective assets or in respect of any of its income, businesses, or franchises to be paid in full, before delinquency or before the expiration of any extension period, except to the extent that the validity of such assessment or Tax shall be the subject of a Permitted Protest and so long as, in the case of an assessment or Tax that has become a Lien against any of the Collateral, such contest proceedings conclusively operate to stay the sale of any portion of the Collateral to satisfy such assessment or tax. Parent will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to make timely payment or deposit with the appropriate taxing authority of all Tax payments and withholding Taxes made by it and them and all other material taxes required to be paid or deposited by it or them by applicable laws, including those laws concerning F.I.C.A., F.U.T.A., state disability, and local, state, provincial and federal income taxes, and will, upon request, furnish Agent with proof reasonably satisfactory to Agent indicating that each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries have made such payments or deposits.

Insurance.

(a) Property, Business Interruption and Liability Insurance. At Borrowers' expense, maintain insurance respecting each of the Loan Parties' assets wherever located, covering liabilities, losses or damage as customarily are insured against by other Persons engaged in the same or similar businesses. All such policies of insurance shall be with financially sound insurance companies and in such amounts (after giving effect to any self-insurance maintained consistent with the standards provided for herein) as is carried generally in accordance with sound business practice by companies in similar businesses similarly situated and located and in any event, as to any Revolving Loan Priority Collateral, in amounts, adequacy and scope reasonably satisfactory to Agent (and Agent acknowledges that based on the information provided to it on or prior to the date hereof with respect thereto, as to insurance coverage for the Revolving Loan Priority Collateral in effect on the date hereof, the amounts, adequacy and scope are reasonably satisfactory to it). Subject to the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, all property insurance policies covering the Collateral are to be made payable to Agent, as its interests may appear, in case of loss, pursuant to a standard loss payable endorsement with a standard noncontributory "lender" or "secured party" clause and are to contain such other provisions as Agent may reasonably require to fully protect the Lenders' interest in the Collateral and to any payments to be made under such policies. All certificates of property and general liability insurance are to be delivered to Agent, with the loss payable (but only in respect of Collateral) and additional insured endorsements in favor of Agent and shall provide for not less than thirty (30) days (ten (10) days in the case of non-payment) prior written notice to Agent of the exercise of any right of cancellation. If any Borrower fails to maintain such insurance, Agent may arrange for such insurance, but at such Borrower's expense and without any responsibility on Agent's part for obtaining the insurance, the solvency of the insurance companies, the adequacy of the coverage, or the collection of claims. Borrowers shall give Agent prompt notice of any loss of (i) Revolving Loan Priority Collateral exceeding $3,000,000 and (ii) Collateral exceeding $6,000,000, in each case, covered by its casualty or business interruption insurance. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and subject to the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, Agent shall have the sole right to file claims under any property and general liability insurance policies in respect of the Collateral, to receive, receipt and give acquittance for any payments that may be payable thereunder, and to execute any and all endorsements, receipts, releases, assignments, reassignments or other documents that may be necessary to effect the collection, compromise or settlement of any claims under any such insurance policies. If any portion of any Mortgaged Property is at any time located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (or any successor agency) as a special flood hazard area with respect to which flood insurance has been made available under any Flood Law, then Parent shall, or shall cause each Loan Party to, maintain, or cause to be maintained, with a financially sound insurer, flood insurances with respect to Mortgaged Property, as required by applicable Laws.

(b) Life Insurance. At Borrowers' expense, maintain each Life Insurance Policy. If any Borrower fails to maintain any such insurance, to the extent any such insurance has not been paid for in full, Agent may pay the premiums thereon or otherwise arrange for such insurance, but at such Borrower's expense and without any responsibility on Agent's part for obtaining the insurance, the solvency of the insurance companies, the adequacy of the coverage, or the collection of claims. Notwithstanding anything in any Life Insurance Assignment to the contrary, Borrowers agree that any such payments made by Agent at Borrowers' expense shall constitute Obligations chargeable to the Loan Account hereunder and bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans. Borrowers shall give Agent prompt notice of the death of any Person covered by any Life Insurance Policy. Agent shall have the sole right to file claims under any Life Insurance Policy, to collect the net proceeds of any such policy, to surrender any such policy, to obtain policy loans thereon from the insurer, to receive, receipt and give acquittance for any payments that may be payable thereunder (including without limitation, the right to collect and receive all distributions or shares of surplus, dividend deposits or additions to such policy made or apportioned thereto, and to exercise any and all options contained in such policy with respect thereto), to exercise all nonforfeiture rights under such policy, and to execute any and all endorsements, receipts, releases, assignments, reassignments or other documents that may be necessary to effect the collection, compromise or settlement of any claims under any such insurance policy.

(a) declare the Obligations (other than the Bank Product Obligations), whether evidenced by this Agreement or by any of the other Loan Documents immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall become and be immediately due and payable and Borrowers shall be obligated to repay all of such Obligations in full, without presentment, demand, protest, or further notice or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower;

(b) declare the Commitments terminated, whereupon the Commitments shall immediately be terminated together with (i) any obligation of any Lender hereunder to make Revolving Loans, (ii) the obligation of Swing Lender to make Swing Loans, and (iii) the obligation of the Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit; and

Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the Lender Group under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. The Lender Group shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, the PPSA, by law, or in equity. No exercise by the Lender Group of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by the Lender Group of any Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by the Lender Group shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.

Appointment of a Receiver. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent may seek the appointment of a receiver, manager or receiver and manager (a "Receiver") under the Laws of Canada or any province thereof to take possession of all or any portion of the Collateral of any Loan Party or to operate same and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, may seek the appointment of such a Receiver without the requirement of prior notice or a hearing. Any such Receiver shall, to the extent permitted by law, so far as concerns responsibility for his/her acts, be deemed to be an agent of such Loan Party and not Agent and the Lenders, and Agent and the Lenders shall not be in any way responsible for any misconduct, negligence or nonfeasance on the part of any such Receiver, or his/her servants or employees, absent the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Agent or the Lenders as determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

To facilitate the foregoing powers, any such Receiver may, to the exclusion of all others, including a Loan Party, enter upon, use and occupy all premises owned or occupied by a Loan Party wherein Collateral of such Loan Party may be situated, maintain Collateral of a Loan Party upon such premises, borrow money on a secured or unsecured basis and use Collateral of a Loan Party directly in carrying on such Loan Party's business or as security for loans or advances to enable the Receiver to carry on such Loan Party's business or otherwise, as such Receiver shall, in its discretion, determine. Except as may be otherwise directed by Agent, all money received from time to time by such Receiver in carrying out his/her appointment shall be received in trust for and paid over to Agent. Every such Receiver may, in the discretion of Agent, be vested with all or any of the rights and powers of Agent and the Lenders. Agent may, either directly or through its nominees, exercise any or all powers and rights given to a Receiver by virtue of the foregoing provisions of this paragraph.

9.4. Collection Allocation Mechanism.

(a) On the first date after the Effective Date on which there shall occur an Event of Default under Section 8.6 or the acceleration of Obligations pursuant to Section 9 (the "CAM Exchange Date"), (i) each Lender shall immediately be deemed to have acquired (and shall promptly make payment therefor to the Agent in accordance with Section 2.2(b) or 2.2(e)) participations in the Swing Loans, in an amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata Share of each US Swing Loan outstanding on such date, (ii) each Lender shall immediately be deemed to have acquired (and shall promptly make payment therefor to the Agent in accordance with Section 2.9) participations in the Obligations with respect to each Letter of Credit in an amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, and (iii) the Lenders shall automatically and without further act be deemed to have exchanged interests in the Revolving Loans and participations in the Swing Loans and Letters of Credit, such that in lieu of the interest of each Lender in each Revolving Loan and the Obligations with respect to each Swing Loan and Letter of Credit in which it shall participate as of such date (including such Lender's interest in the Obligations, Guaranties and Collateral of each Loan Party in respect thereof), such Lender shall hold an interest in every one of the Revolving Loans and a participation in all of the Obligations in respect of Swing Loans and Letters of Credit (including the Obligations, Guaranties and Collateral of each Loan Party in respect thereof), whether or not such Lender shall previously have participated therein, equal to such Lender's CAM Percentage thereof (the foregoing exchange being referred to as the "CAM Exchange"). Each Lender and each Loan Party hereby consents and agrees to the CAM Exchange, and each Lender agrees that the CAM Exchange shall be binding upon its successors and assigns and any person that acquires a participation in its interests in any Revolving Loan or any participation in any Swing Loan or Letter of Credit. Each Loan Party agrees from time to time to execute and deliver to the Agent all such promissory notes and other instruments and documents as the Agent shall reasonably request to evidence and confirm the respective interests of the Lenders after giving effect to the CAM Exchange, and each Lender agrees to surrender any promissory notes originally received by it in connection with its Revolving Loans hereunder to the Agent against delivery of any promissory notes evidencing its interests in the Revolving Loans so executed and delivered; provided, that, the failure of any Loan Party to execute or deliver or of any Lender to accept any such promissory note, instrument or document shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the CAM Exchange.

(b) As a result of the CAM Exchange, upon and after the CAM Exchange Date, each payment received by Agent pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of any of the Obligations related to the Revolving Loans, the Letters of Credit and the Swing Loans, and all fees, costs and expenses arising out of or related to any of the foregoing, in each case as provided in the Loan Documents, and each distribution made by the Agent in respect of such Obligations, shall be distributed to the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective CAM Percentages. Any direct payment received by a Lender upon or after the CAM Exchange Date, including by way of setoff, in respect of an Obligation shall be paid over to the Agent for distribution to the Lenders in accordance herewith.

(c) The provisions of this Section 9.4 are solely an agreement among the Lenders and Agent for the purpose of allocating risk and the Loan Parties have no additional obligations with respect thereto.

(d) For purposes of this Section 9.4, "CAM Percentage" means, as to each Lender, a fraction, expressed as a percentage, of which (i) the numerator shall be the US Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate amount of any Obligations owed to such Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents in respect of Revolving Loans, Letters of Credit and Swing Loans (including, without duplication, as to participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans), and fees, costs and expenses with respect to any of the foregoing, whether or not then due and payable, in each case immediately prior to the CAM Exchange Date, and (ii) the denominator shall be the US Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate amount of any Obligations owed to Lenders pursuant to the Loan Documents in respect of Revolving Loans, Letters of Credit and Swing Loans (including, without duplication, as to participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans), and fees, costs and expenses with respect to any of the foregoing, whether or not then due and payable, in each case immediately prior to the CAM Exchange Date.

The Lender Group's Liability for Collateral. Each Borrower hereby agrees that: (a) so long as Agent complies with its obligations, if any, under the Code and the PPSA, the Lender Group shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (i) the safekeeping of the Collateral, (ii) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause, (iii) any diminution in the value thereof, or (iv) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other Person, and (b) all risk of loss, damage, or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by Borrowers.

Indemnification. Borrowers shall pay, indemnify, defend, and hold the Agent-Related Persons, the Lender-Related Persons, and each Participant (each, an "Indemnified Person") harmless (to the fullest extent permitted by law) from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations, proceedings, liabilities, fines, costs, penalties, and damages, and all reasonable fees and disbursements of the following applicable counsel retained by Agent (other than as a result of conflicts of interest) for Indemnified Persons: (i) one US counsel, (ii) one Canadian counsel, (iii) one Luxembourg counsel, (iv) one regulatory counsel to Agent and (v) one local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction selected by Agent and, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and such additional counsel is necessary as a result of conflicts of interest), one additional counsel to the Lender Group, experts, or consultants and all other costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith or in connection with the enforcement of this indemnification (as and when they are incurred and irrespective of whether suit is brought), at any time asserted against, imposed upon, or incurred by any of them (a) in connection with or as a result of or related to the execution and delivery (provided that Borrowers shall not be liable for costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) of any Lender (other than WFCF) incurred in advising, structuring, drafting, reviewing, administering or syndicating the Loan Documents), enforcement, performance, or administration (including any restructuring or workout with respect hereto) of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the monitoring of Parent's and its Subsidiaries' compliance with the terms of the Loan Documents (provided, that, the indemnification in this clause (a) shall not extend to (i) disputes solely between or among the Lenders if not resulting from the action or inaction of any Loan Party or (ii) disputes solely between or among the Lenders and their respective Affiliates; it being understood and agreed that the indemnification in this clause (a) shall extend to Agent (but not the Lenders) relative to disputes between or among Agent on the one hand, and one or more Lenders, or one or more of their Affiliates, on the other hand, or (iii) claims primarily related to Taxes, which shall be governed by Section 16), (b) with respect to any investigation, litigation, or proceeding related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or the use of the proceeds of the credit provided hereunder (irrespective of whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto), or any act, omission, event, or circumstance in any manner related thereto, and (c) in connection with or arising out of any presence or release of Hazardous Materials at, on, under, to or from any assets or properties owned, leased or operated by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any Environmental Actions, Environmental Liabilities or Remedial Actions related in any way to any such assets or properties of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (each and all of the foregoing, the "Indemnified Liabilities"). The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, no Borrower shall have any obligation to any Indemnified Person under this Section 10.3 with respect to any Indemnified Liability that a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person or its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents as determined pursuant to a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Obligations. If any Indemnified Person makes any payment to any other Indemnified Person with respect to an Indemnified Liability as to which any Borrower was required to indemnify the Indemnified Person receiving such payment, the Indemnified Person making such payment is entitled to be indemnified and reimbursed by Borrowers with respect thereto. WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY SHALL APPLY TO EACH INDEMNIFIED PERSON WITH RESPECT TO INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF SUCH INDEMNIFIED PERSON OR OF ANY OTHER PERSON.

ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS; SUCCESSORS.

13.1. Assignments and Participations.

(a) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Transferees (each, an "Assignee") all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Obligations at the time owing to it and its participation interests in Letters of Credit, Swing Loans and Overadvances), provided, that, any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) The aggregate amount of the Commitment or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Obligations of the assigning Lender subject to such assignment shall be not less than $5,000,000, unless the Agent otherwise consents, except that such minimum amount shall not apply to (A) an assignment or delegation by any Lender to any other Lender, an Affiliate of any Lender or an Related Fund or (B) a group of new Lenders, each of which is an Affiliate of each other or a Related Fund of such new Lender to the extent that the aggregate amount to be assigned to all such new Lenders is at least $5,000,000 or (C) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment and/or Obligations at the time owing to it;

(ii) 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;

(iii) No consent shall be required for any assignment except: (A) the consent of Administrative Borrower shall be required, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, that (1) Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to a proposed assignment unless it objects thereto by written notice to Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof and (2) no consent of Administrative Borrower shall be required for an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, a Related Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (B) the consent of each of the Agent, Issuing Lender and Swing Lender shall be required (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), other than for an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or a Related Fund;

(v) No such assignment shall be made to (A) a Loan Party or an Affiliate of a Loan Party, (B) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute a Defaulting Lender or one of its Subsidiaries, (C) a natural Person and (D) any holder of Subordinated Debt of a Loan Party to the extent Agent has written notice that such Person is a holder of such Subordinated Debt; and

(vi) Borrowers and Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with a Lender in connection with the interest so assigned to an Assignee until (A) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses, and related information with respect to the Assignee, have been given to Administrative Borrower and Agent by such Lender and the Assignee, (B) such Lender and its Assignee have delivered to Administrative Borrower and Agent an Assignment and Acceptance and Agent has notified the assigning Lender of its receipt thereof in accordance with this Section 13.1(b) and the satisfaction of the other conditions herein.

(b) No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register. From and after the date that Agent notifies the assigning Lender (with a copy to Borrowers) that it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance and recorded the same in the Register and, if applicable, payment of the required processing fee, (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, shall be a "Lender" and shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, and (ii) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (except with respect to Section 10.3) and be released from any future obligations under this Agreement (and in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto and thereto); provided, that, nothing contained herein shall release any assigning Lender from obligations that survive the termination of this Agreement, including such assigning Lender's obligations under Section 15 and Section 17.9(a).

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the Assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto, (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Borrower or the performance or observance by any Borrower of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto, (iii) such Assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance, (iv) such Assignee will, independently and without reliance upon Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement, (v) such Assignee appoints and authorizes Agent to take such actions and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to Agent, by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, and (vi) such Assignee agrees that it will perform all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(d) Immediately upon Agent's receipt of the required processing fee, if applicable, and delivery of notice to the assigning Lender pursuant to Section 13.1(b), this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the Commitments arising therefrom. The Commitment allocated to each Assignee shall reduce such Commitments of the assigning Lender pro tanto.

(e) Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks, financial institutions, or other Persons (a "Participant") participating interests in all or any portion of its Obligations, its Commitment, and the other rights and interests of that Lender (the "Originating Lender") hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, that, (i) the Originating Lender shall remain a "Lender" for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Participant receiving the participating interest in the Obligations, the Commitments, and the other rights and interests of the Originating Lender hereunder shall not constitute a "Lender" hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the Originating Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Originating Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) Borrowers, Agent, and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Originating Lender in connection with the Originating Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iv) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the Participant has the right to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except to the extent such amendment to, or consent or waiver with respect to this Agreement or of any other Loan Document would (A) extend the final maturity date of the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (B) reduce the interest rate applicable to the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (C) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or guaranties (except to the extent expressly provided herein or in any of the Loan Documents) supporting the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (D) postpone the payment of, or reduce the amount of, the interest or fees payable to such Participant through such Lender (other than a waiver of default interest), or (E) decreases the amount or postpones the due dates of scheduled principal repayments or prepayments or premiums payable to such Participant through such Lender, and (v) all amounts payable by Borrowers hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation, except that, if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement. The rights of any Participant only shall be derivative through the Originating Lender with whom such Participant participates and no Participant shall have any rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any direct rights as to the other Lenders, Agent, Loan Parties, the Collections of Loan Parties, the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Obligations. No Participant shall have the right to participate directly in the making of decisions by the Lenders among themselves. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts of (and stated interest on) each Participant's interest in the Loan or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the "Participant Register"); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except: (i) to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in "registered form" for the purpose of the IRC, including under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations, and (ii) with respect to the grant to any Participant of an interest in a Canadian Obligation, Originating Lender shall provide Administrative Borrower with such information as it may reasonably request in accordance with Section 16.2(c). For the avoidance of doubt, the Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(f) In connection with any such assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation or any grant of a security interest in, or pledge of, its rights under and interest in this Agreement, a Lender may, subject to the provisions of Section 17.9, disclose all documents and information which it now or hereafter may have relating to Parent and its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses.

(g) Any other provision in this Agreement notwithstanding, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Bank or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR §203.24, and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under applicable law.

(h) In case of assignment, transfer or novation by a Lender to a new lender or a participant, of all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Lenders and the new lender or participant shall agree that, for the purposes of Article 1278 and/or Article 1281 of the Luxembourg Civil Code (to the extent applicable), any assignment, amendment, transfer and/or novation of any kind permitted under, and made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or any agreement referred to herein to which Luxembourg Borrower is a party (including any Luxembourg Security Documents), any security created or the guaranty given under such Loan Document or in relation to such Loan Document shall be preserved and continue in full force and effect to the benefit of the new lender or participant.

Successors. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of each of the parties; provided, that, no Borrower may assign this Agreement or any rights or duties hereunder without the Lenders' prior written consent and any prohibited assignment shall be absolutely void ab initio. No consent to assignment by the Lenders shall release any Borrower from its Obligations. A Lender may assign this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and its rights and duties hereunder and thereunder pursuant to Section 13.1 and, except as expressly required pursuant to Section 13.1, no consent or approval by any Borrower is required in connection with any such assignment.

14.2. Replacement of Certain Lenders.

(a) If (i) any action to be taken by the Lender Group or Agent hereunder requires the consent, authorization, or agreement of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby and if such action has received the consent, authorization, or agreement of the Required Lenders but not of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby, or (ii) any Lender makes a claim for compensation under Section 16, then Borrowers or Agent, upon at least five (5) Business Days prior irrevocable notice, may permanently replace any Lender that failed to give its consent, authorization, or agreement (a "Non-Consenting Lender") or any Lender that made a claim for compensation (a "Tax Lender") with one or more Replacement Lenders, and the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall have no right to refuse to be replaced hereunder. Such notice to replace the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall specify an effective date for such replacement, which date shall not be later than 15 Business Days after the date such notice is given.

(b) Prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, and each Replacement Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance, subject only to the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, being repaid in full its share of the outstanding Obligations (without any premium or penalty of any kind whatsoever, but including (i) all interest, fees and other amounts that may be due in payable in respect thereof, and (ii) an assumption of its Pro Rata Share of participations in the Letters of Credit). If the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall refuse or fail to execute and deliver any such Assignment and Acceptance prior to the effective date of such replacement, Agent may, but shall not be required to, execute and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance in the name or and on behalf of the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, and irrespective of whether Agent executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance, the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance. The replacement of any Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall be made in accordance with the terms of Section 13.1. Until such time as one or more Replacement Lenders shall have acquired all of the Obligations, the Commitments, and the other rights and obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall remain obligated to make the Non-Consenting Lender's or Tax Lender's, as applicable, Pro Rata Share of Revolving Loans and to purchase a participation in each Letter of Credit, in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such Letters of Credit.

No Waivers; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by Agent or any Lender to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or delay by Agent or any Lender in exercising the same, will operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver by Agent or any Lender will be effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the extent specifically stated. No waiver by Agent or any Lender on any occasion shall affect or diminish Agent's and each Lender's rights thereafter to require strict performance by each Loan Party of any provision of this Agreement. Agent's and each Lender's rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents will be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy that Agent or any Lender may have.


15.	AGENT; THE LENDER GROUP.

Appointment and Authorization of Agent. Each Lender hereby designates and appoints WFCF as its agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to designate, appoint, and authorize) Agent to execute and deliver each of the other Loan Documents on its behalf and to take such other action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to Agent by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent agrees to act as agent for and on behalf of the Lenders (and the Bank Product Providers) on the conditions contained in this Section 15. Any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document notwithstanding, Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents, nor shall Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender (or Bank Product Provider), and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term "agent" in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents with reference to Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only a representative relationship between independent contracting parties. Each Lender hereby further authorizes (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to authorize) Agent to act as the secured party under each of the Loan Documents that create a Lien on any item of Collateral. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement, Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions that Agent expressly is entitled to take or assert under or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, or of any other provision of the Loan Documents that provides rights or powers to Agent, Lenders agree that Agent shall have the right to exercise the following powers as long as this Agreement remains in effect: (a) maintain, in accordance with its customary business practices, ledgers and records reflecting the status of the Obligations, the Collateral, the Collections of Parent and its Subsidiaries, and related matters, (b) execute or file any and all financing or similar statements or notices, amendments, renewals, supplements, documents, instruments, proofs of claim, notices and other written agreements with respect to the Loan Documents, (c) make Revolving Loans, for itself or on behalf of Lenders, as provided in the Loan Documents, (d) exclusively receive, apply, and distribute the Collections of Parent and its Subsidiaries as provided in the Loan Documents, (e) open and maintain such bank accounts and cash management arrangements as Agent deems necessary and appropriate in accordance with the Loan Documents for the foregoing purposes with respect to the Collateral and the Collections of Parent and its Subsidiaries, (f) perform, exercise, and enforce any and all other rights and remedies of the Lender Group with respect to Parent or its Subsidiaries, the Obligations, the Collateral, the Collections of Parent and its Subsidiaries, or otherwise related to any of same as provided in the Loan Documents, and (g) incur and pay such Lender Group Expenses as Agent may deem necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions and powers pursuant to the Loan Documents.

Delegation of Duties. Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney in fact that it selects as long as such selection was made without gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Liability of Agent. None of the Agent-Related Persons shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders (or Bank Product Providers) for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any officer or director thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of Parent or its Subsidiaries or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lenders (or Bank Product Providers) to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the books and records or properties of Parent or its Subsidiaries.

Reliance by Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Lender), independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless Agent shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Lenders as it deems appropriate and until such instructions are received, Agent shall act, or refrain from acting, as it deems advisable. If Agent so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders (and, if it so elects, the Bank Product Providers) against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders (and Bank Product Providers).

Notice of Default or Event of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest, fees, and expenses required to be paid to Agent for the account of the Lenders and, except with respect to Events of Default of which Agent has actual knowledge, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or any Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default, and stating that such notice is a "notice of default." Agent promptly will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice or of any Event of Default of which Agent has actual knowledge. If any Lender obtains actual knowledge of any Event of Default, such Lender promptly shall notify the other Lenders and Agent of such Event of Default. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for giving any notices to its Participants, if any. Subject to Section 15.4, Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 9; provided, that, unless and until Agent has received any such request, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable.

Credit Decision. Each Lender (and Bank Product Provider) acknowledges that none of the Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Parent and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender (or Bank Product Provider). Each Lender represents (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to represent) to Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such due diligence, documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of any Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrowers. Each Lender also represents (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to represent) that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of any Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document. Except for notices, reports, and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by Agent, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender (or Bank Product Provider) with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document that may come into the possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons. Each Lender acknowledges (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to acknowledge) that Agent does not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis (except to the extent, if any, that is expressly specified herein) to provide such Lender (or Bank Product Provider) with any credit or other information with respect to any Borrower, its Affiliates or any of their respective business, legal, financial or other affairs, and irrespective of whether such information came into Agent's or its Affiliates' or representatives' possession before or after the date on which such Lender became a party to this Agreement (or such Bank Product Provider entered into a Bank Product Agreement).

Costs and Expenses; Indemnification. Agent may incur and pay Lender Group Expenses to the extent Agent reasonably deems necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions, powers, and obligations pursuant to the Loan Documents, including court costs, attorneys' fees and expenses, fees and expenses of financial accountants, advisors, consultants, and appraisers, costs of collection by outside collection agencies, auctioneer fees and expenses, and costs of security guards or insurance premiums paid to maintain the Collateral, whether or not Borrowers are obligated to reimburse Agent or Lenders for such expenses pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise. To the extent any Loan Parties are required to reimburse Agent for such Lender Group Expenses, Agent is authorized and directed to deduct and retain sufficient amounts from the Collections of Parent and its Subsidiaries received by Agent to reimburse Agent for such out-of-pocket costs and expenses prior to the distribution of any amounts to Lenders (or Bank Product Providers). In the event Agent is not reimbursed for such costs and expenses by Parent or its Subsidiaries, each Lender hereby agrees that it is and shall be obligated to pay to Agent such Lender's Pro Rata Share thereof. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each of the Lenders, on a ratable basis, shall indemnify and defend the Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of Borrowers to do so) from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, that, no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from such Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct nor shall any Lender be liable for the obligations of any Defaulting Lender in failing to make a Revolving Loan or other extension of credit hereunder. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Agent upon demand for such Lender's Pro Rata Share of any costs or out of pocket expenses (including attorneys, accountants, advisors, and consultants fees and expenses) incurred by Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrowers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Lenders shall be liable and indemnify Agent-Related Persons only for Indemnified Liabilities and other costs and expenses that relate to or arise from an Agent-Related Person acting as or for Agent (in its capacity as Agent). The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Agent.

Agent in Individual Capacity. WFCF and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, provide Bank Products to, acquire equity interests in, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any other Person party to any Loan Document as though WFCF were not Agent hereunder, and, in each case, without notice to or consent of the other members of the Lender Group. The other members of the Lender Group acknowledge (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to acknowledge) that, pursuant to such activities, WFCF or its Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrowers or their Affiliates or any other Person party to any Loan Documents that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrowers or such other Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to the Lenders (or Bank Product Providers), and the Lenders acknowledge (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to acknowledge) that, in such circumstances (and in the absence of a waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver Agent will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain), Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them. The terms "Lender" and "Lenders" include WFCF in its individual capacity.

Successor Agent. Agent may resign as Agent upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Lenders (unless such notice is waived by the Required Lenders) and Administrative Borrower (unless such notice is waived by Borrowers) and without any notice to the Bank Product Providers. If Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall be entitled, with (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) the consent of Administrative Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned), appoint a successor Agent for the Lenders (and the Bank Product Providers). If, at the time that Agent's resignation is effective, it is acting as the Issuing Lender or Swing Lender, such resignation shall also operate to effectuate its resignation as the Issuing Lender or Swing Lender, as applicable, and it shall automatically be relieved of any further obligation to issue Letters of Credit, to cause the Underlying Issuer to issue Letters of Credit, or to make Swing Loans. If no successor Agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Agent, Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and Administrative Borrower, a successor Agent from among Lenders (unless no Lender is willing to accept such appointment, then otherwise as Agent determines). If Agent has materially breached or failed to perform any material provision of this Agreement or of applicable law, the Required Lenders may agree in writing to remove and replace Agent with a successor Agent from among the Lenders with (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) the consent of Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned). In any such event, upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor Agent hereunder, such successor Agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers, and duties of the retiring Agent and the term "Agent" shall mean such successor Agent and the retiring Agent's appointment, powers, and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent's resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 15 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. If no successor Agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Agent's notice of resignation, the retiring Agent's resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above.

Lender in Individual Capacity. Any Lender and its respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, provide Bank Products to, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any other Person party to any Loan Documents as though such Lender were not a Lender hereunder without notice to or consent of the other members of the Lender Group (or the Bank Product Providers). The other members of the Lender Group acknowledge (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to acknowledge) that, pursuant to such activities, such Lender and its respective Affiliates may receive information regarding Parent or their Affiliates or any other Person party to any Loan Documents that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Parent or such other Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to the Lenders, and the Lenders acknowledge (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to acknowledge) that, in such circumstances (and in the absence of a waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver such Lender will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain), such Lender shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them.

15.11. Collateral Matters.

(a) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to authorize) Agent to release any Lien on any of the Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations, or (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if Administrative Borrower or any Loan Party certifies to Agent that the sale or disposition is not prohibited by Section 6.4 (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), or (iii) constituting property in which any Loan Party did not own an interest at the time the security interest, mortgage or lien was granted or at any time thereafter, or (iv) having a value in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period of less than $5,000,000, and to the extent Agent may release its Lien on any such Collateral pursuant to the sale or other disposition thereof, such sale or other disposition shall be deemed consented to by Lenders, or (v) if required or permitted under the terms of any of the other Loan Documents, including any intercreditor agreement, or (vi) constituting property leased to a Loan Party under a lease that has expired or is terminated, or (vii) subject to Section 14.1 and the Security Agreement, if the release is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders. In no event shall the consent or approval of an Issuing Lender to any release of Collateral be required. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to require the consent of any Bank Product Provider to any release of any Collateral or termination of security interests in any Collateral. Upon request by Agent or any Borrower at any time, the Lenders will (and if so requested, the Bank Product Providers will) confirm in writing Agent's authority to release any such Liens on particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 15.11; provided, that, (1) Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release on terms that, in Agent's opinion, would expose Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Lien without recourse, representation, or warranty, and (2) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of any Borrower in respect of) all interests retained by any Loan Party, including, the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. The Lenders further hereby irrevocably authorize (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to authorize) Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to subordinate any Lien granted to or held by Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Permitted Lien on such property if such Permitted Lien secures Permitted Purchase Money Indebtedness.

(b) The Loan Parties and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to authorize) Agent, based upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, to (A) consent to, credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code or other bankruptcy or insolvency laws, including under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, (B) credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale or other disposition thereof conducted under the provisions of the Code or the PPSA, including pursuant to Sections 9-610 or 9-620 of the Code, or (C) credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any other sale or foreclosure conducted by Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid or purchase, the Obligations owed to the Lenders and the Bank Product Providers shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims being estimated for such purpose if the fixing or liquidation thereof would not unduly delay the ability of Agent to credit bid or purchase at such sale or other disposition of the Collateral and, if such claims cannot be estimated without unduly delaying the ability of Agent to credit bid, then such claims shall be disregarded, not credit bid, and not entitled to any interest in the asset or assets purchased by means of such credit bid) and the Lenders and the Bank Product Providers whose Obligations are credit bid shall be entitled to receive interests (ratably based upon the proportion of their Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Obligations so credit bid) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Equity Interests of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase).

(c) Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Lenders (or the Bank Product Providers) to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by a Loan Party or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that Agent's Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or that any particular items of Collateral meet the eligibility criteria applicable in respect thereof or whether to impose, maintain, reduce, or eliminate any particular reserve hereunder or whether the amount of any such reserve is appropriate or not, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion given Agent's own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as one of the Lenders and that Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender (or Bank Product Provider) as to any of the foregoing, except as otherwise provided herein.

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, no Mortgage shall be executed and delivered unless and until at least ten (10) Business Days in advance of such execution and delivery, Agent shall have delivered to each Lender (A) written notice thereof, and (B) such flood certification documentation or other documentation with respect thereto as may be required or reasonably requested by any Lender with respect to any Flood Laws; provided, however, that the failure to execute and deliver any Mortgage pursuant to this Section 15.11(d) shall not constitute a breach by the Loan Parties or a Default or Event of Default hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

15.12. Restrictions on Actions by Lenders; Sharing of Payments.

(a) Each of the Lenders agrees that it shall not, without the express written consent of Agent and only to the extent it is lawfully entitled to do so, set off against the Obligations, any amounts owing by such Lender to Parent or its Subsidiaries or any Deposit Accounts of Parent or its Subsidiaries now or hereafter maintained with such Lender. Each of the Lenders further agrees that it shall not, unless specifically requested to do so in writing by Agent, take or cause to be taken any action, including, the commencement of any legal or equitable proceedings to enforce any Loan Document against any Borrower or any Guarantor or to foreclose any Lien on, or otherwise enforce any security interest in, any of the Collateral.

(b) If, at any time or times any Lender shall receive (i) by payment, foreclosure, setoff, or otherwise, any proceeds of Collateral or any payments with respect to the Obligations, except for any such proceeds or payments received by such Lender from Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) payments from Agent in excess of such Lender's Pro Rata Share of all such distributions by Agent, such Lender promptly shall (A) turn the same over to Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to Agent, or in immediately available funds, as applicable, for the account of all of the Lenders and for application to the Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, or (B) purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in the Obligations owed to the other Lenders so that such excess payment received shall be applied ratably as among the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares; provided, that, to the extent that such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases of participations shall be rescinded in whole or in part, as applicable, and the applicable portion of the purchase price paid therefor shall be returned to such purchasing party, but without interest except to the extent that such purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with the recovery of the excess payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent that cash collateral has been specifically pledged by a Borrower to a Lender prior to the date hereof to secure the Bank Product Obligations owing to such Lender, such Lender may apply such cash collateral to such Bank Product Obligations, after notice to Agent, and shall only be required to comply with this Section 15.12(b) as to such cash collateral to the extent that the amount of such cash collateral exceeds the applicable Bank Product Obligations.

Agency for Perfection. Agent hereby appoints each other Lender (and each Bank Product Provider) as its agent (and each Lender hereby accepts (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to accept) such appointment) for the purpose of perfecting Agent's Liens in assets which, in accordance with Article 8 or Article 9, as applicable, of the Code or in accordance with the PPSA can be perfected by possession or control. Should any Lender obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Agent's request therefor shall deliver possession or control of such Collateral to Agent or in accordance with Agent's instructions.

Payments by Agent to the Lenders. All payments to be made by Agent to the Lenders (or Bank Product Providers) shall be made by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to such wire transfer instructions as each party may designate for itself by written notice to Agent. Concurrently with each such payment, Agent shall identify whether such payment (or any portion thereof) represents principal, premium, fees, or interest of the Obligations.

Concerning the Collateral and Related Loan Documents. Each member of the Lender Group authorizes and directs Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each member of the Lender Group agrees (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to agree) that any action taken by Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents relating to the Collateral and the exercise by Agent of its powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders (and such Bank Product Provider). Each Lender hereby authorizes Agent, on behalf of such Lender, to execute the Reaffirmation of US Loan Documents, the Reaffirmation of Canadian Loan Documents, and each other amendment, supplement or modification to a Loan Document to be executed and delivered on the Effective Date.

Field Examination Reports; Confidentiality; Disclaimers by Lenders; Other Reports and Information.

(a) By becoming a party to this Agreement, each Lender:

(i) is deemed to have requested that Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each field examination report respecting Parent or its Subsidiaries (each, a "Report") prepared by or at the request of Agent, and Agent shall so furnish each Lender with such Reports,

(ii) expressly agrees and acknowledges that Agent does not (i) make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any Report, and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report,

(iii) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that Agent or other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding Parent and its Subsidiaries and will rely significantly upon Parent's and its Subsidiaries' books and records, as well as on representations of each Borrower's personnel,

(iv) agrees to keep all Reports and other material, non-public information regarding Parent and its Subsidiaries and their operations, assets, and existing and contemplated business plans in a confidential manner in accordance with Section 17.9, and

(v) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees: (i) to hold Agent and any other Lender preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or fail to take or any conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any loans or other credit accommodations that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to Borrowers, or the indemnifying Lender's participation in, or the indemnifying Lender's purchase of, a loan or loans of Borrowers, and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend and hold Agent, and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including, attorneys' fees and costs) incurred by Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who obtains all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender.

(b) In addition to the foregoing, any Lender may from time to time request of Agent in writing that Agent provide to such Lender a copy of any report or document provided by Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent to Agent that has not been contemporaneously provided by Parent or its Subsidiaries to such Lender, and, upon receipt of such request, Agent promptly shall provide a copy of same to such Lender, (i) to the extent that Agent is entitled, under any provision of the Loan Documents, to request additional reports or information from Parent or its Subsidiaries, any Lender may, from time to time, reasonably request Agent to exercise such right as specified in such Lender's notice to Agent, whereupon Agent promptly shall request of such Borrower the additional reports or information reasonably specified by such Lender, and, upon receipt thereof from Parent or its Subsidiaries, Agent promptly shall provide a copy of same to such Lender, and (ii) any time that Agent renders to any Borrower a statement regarding the Loan Account, Agent shall send a copy of such statement to each Lender.

15.17. Agent May File Proofs of Claim.

(a) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding or other Insolvency Proceeding relative to any Loan Party, Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Obligations or amounts owing in respect of Letters of Credit shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Obligations and all other Obligations (other than obligations under Bank Products to which Agent is not a party) that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of Lenders, Issuing Lender and Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Lenders, Issuing Lender and Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due Lenders, Issuing Lender and Agent allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and Issuing Lender to make such payments to Agent and, in the event that Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to Lenders and Issuing Lender, to pay to Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Agent.

(iii) Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

Several Obligations; No Liability. Notwithstanding that certain of the Loan Documents now or hereafter may have been or will be executed only by or in favor of Agent in its capacity as such, and not by or in favor of the Lenders, any and all obligations on the part of Agent (if any) to make any credit available hereunder shall constitute the several (and not joint) obligations of the respective Lenders on a ratable basis, according to their respective Commitments, to make an amount of such credit not to exceed, in principal amount, at any one time outstanding, the amount of their respective Commitments. Nothing contained herein shall confer upon any Lender any interest in, or subject any Lender to any liability for, or in respect of, the business, assets, profits, losses, or liabilities of any other Lender. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters relating to the Loan Documents to the extent any such notice may be required, and no Lender shall have any obligation, duty, or liability to any Participant of any other Lender. Except as provided in Section 15.7, no member of the Lender Group shall have any liability for the acts of any other member of the Lender Group. No Lender shall be responsible to any Borrower or any other Person for any failure by any other Lender (or Bank Product Provider) to fulfill its obligations to make credit available hereunder, nor to advance for such Lender (or Bank Product Provider) or on its behalf, nor to take any other action on behalf of such Lender (or Bank Product Provider) hereunder or in connection with the financing contemplated herein.

Appointment for the Province of Quebec. Without prejudice to Section 15.1 above, each member of the Lender Group (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to) hereby irrevocably appoints the Agent as hypothecary representative (formerly referred to as the person holding the power of attorney or fondé de pouvoir) for the holders of each Bond (as hereinafter defined) or for each member of the Lender Group, as the case may be (in each case, collectively, the "Secured Parties"), as contemplated under Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec, (i) to enter into, to take and to hold on behalf of the Secured Parties, and for their benefit, any deed of hypothec executed or to be executed at any time by a Loan Party under the laws of the Province of Quebec and creating a hypothec on the property of such Loan Party (as security for the Bond or the Obligations, as the case may be) and to exercise such powers and duties which are conferred upon the Agent under any such deed of hypothec and Applicable Law, (ii) to hold as agent, mandatary, custodian and depositary for and on behalf of each of the Secured Parties and to be the sole registered holder of any bond, debenture or other title of indebtedness (each, a "Bond") issued under any deed of hypothec which contemplates the issuance of a Bond, as applicable, the whole notwithstanding Section 32 of the Act Respecting the Special Powers of Legal Persons (Quebec) or any other Applicable Law, and (iii) to enter into, to take and to hold a pledge agreement in respect of each Bond (each, a "Pledge"), as applicable, executed at any time by such Loan Party under the laws of the Province of Quebec and evidencing the pledge of such Bond as security for the payment and performance of the applicable Obligations. In this respect, (a) Wells Fargo, as agent, mandatary, custodian and depositary of the Secured Parties, shall keep a record indicating the names and addresses of, and the pro rata portion of the Obligations secured by each Pledge, owing to the Persons for and on behalf of whom each Bond is so held from time to time, and (b) each Secured Party will be entitled to the benefits of any property charged under each Deed of Hypothec and each Pledge and will participate in the proceeds of realization of any such property, the whole in accordance with the terms hereof. Any Person who becomes a Secured Party shall be deemed to have consented to and confirmed the appointment of the Agent as hypothecary representative. The execution prior to the date hereof by the Agent of any deed of hypothec, Pledge or other security documents made pursuant to the Applicable Laws of the Province of Quebec is hereby ratified and confirmed. In the event of the resignation or removal of the Agent and appointment of a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall also act as hypothecary representative without further formality, except (i) the execution of any documents necessary for the purposes of effecting the assignment and transfer of any related Bonds and Pledges (which may include the issuance and delivery of replacement Bonds and the amendment and restatement of the Pledges), as applicable, and (ii) the filing of a notice of replacement of hypothecary representative in the applicable registers (as contemplated by Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec). Without prejudice to Section 12(a) hereof, the provisions of this paragraph shall be governed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Province of Quebec to the extent necessary to give full force and effect thereto.

Authorization.

(a) [Reserved].

(b) Each Lender hereby (i) consents to the subordination of Liens provided for in the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement or any other intercreditor contemplated herein, (ii) agrees that it will be bound by, and will take no actions contrary to, the provisions of the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement or such other intercreditor, (iii) ratifies Agent's prior entry into the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement or such other intercreditor on behalf of such Lender, authorizes and instructs Agent to deliver to Term Loan Agent the Acknowledgment of Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement on the date hereof, and agrees that Agent may take such actions on its behalf as is contemplated by the terms of the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement or such other intercreditor, and (iv) acknowledges that a copy of the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement and the Acknowledgment of Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement was delivered, or made available, to such Lender and it has received and reviewed such agreement and acknowledgment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Lien and security interest granted pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement and any other intercreditor. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement and/or and any other intercreditor and any of the other Loan Documents, the terms of the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement and any other intercreditor shall govern and control except as expressly set forth in the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement. Furthermore, in the event the Term Loan Credit Agreement has not been terminated, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, if there is a delivery or control obligation with respect to any Term Loan Priority Collateral and such delivery or grant of control cannot be made by the applicable Loan Agent to both Agent and Term Loan Agent, such delivery requirement shall be satisfied by delivery by the applicable Grantor to Term Loan Agent.

Release of Life Insurance Policies. So long as the Loan Parties are in compliance with Section 6.16(d), the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to authorize) Agent to release any Lien on any Life Insurance Policy upon at least thirty (30) days (or such shorter period as agreed to by Agent in writing) written notice from Parent that any key person life insurance policy shall not constitute a "Life Insurance Policy" hereunder or under any other Loan Document and in connection therewith, Agent shall release or terminate any Life Insurance Assignment executed in connection with such Life Insurance Policy and take such further actions as reasonably requested by Parent, at the Borrowers' sole cost and expense.

Luxembourg Security. In the event that a transfer by any Lender of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (and any relevant Loan Documents) occurred or was deemed to occur by way of novation (it being understood that no such transfer shall be intended to occur by way of novation), the parties to this Agreement explicitly agree that all securities and guarantees created under any Loan Documents shall be preserved for the benefit of the new Lender, new secured party, participant or their successors or assignees in accordance with the provisions of article 1278 of the Luxembourg Civil Code.


16.	WITHHOLDING TAXES.

No Setoff; Payments. All payments made by any Loan Party hereunder or under any note or other Loan Document will be made without setoff, counterclaim, or other defense. In addition, all such payments will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future Taxes except as required by Law, and in the event any deduction or withholding of Taxes is required, the Loan Parties shall comply with the next sentence of this Section 16.1. If any Taxes are required to be deducted or withheld, (i) the applicable Loan Party or other withholding agent shall make the required withholding or deduction and timely pay the applicable Governmental Authority the withheld amounts, and (ii) if the Tax subject to withholding is an Indemnified Tax, the Loan Parties agree to pay the full amount of such Indemnified Taxes and such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every payment of all amounts due under this Agreement, any note, or Loan Document, including any amount paid pursuant to this Section 16.1 after withholding or deduction for or on account of any Indemnified Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for herein; provided, that Borrowers shall not be required to increase any such amounts if the increase in such amount payable results from Agent's or such Lender's own willful misconduct or gross negligence (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). Borrowers will furnish to Agent as promptly as possible after the date the payment of any Tax is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by Borrowers or such other evidence as is reasonably satisfactory to Agent. Borrowers agree to pay any present or future stamp, value added or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, similar charges, or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery, performance, recordation, or filing of, or otherwise with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except any such taxes that are Other Connection Taxes imposed with respect to an assignment by a Lender after the date hereof (other than an assignment made pursuant to Section 14.2(a) or otherwise at the request of a Loan Party during an Event of Default described in Sections 8.1, 8.6 or 8.10) ("Other Taxes") except for any Luxembourg registration duties (droits d’enregistrement) payable due to registration of any Loan Document when such registration is or was not required to maintain or preserve the rights of a Lender under that Loan Document. The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally (subject to the penultimate sentence of this Section 16.1) indemnify each of Agent, Lenders and Issuing Lender (collectively a "Tax Indemnitee") for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment made by or on account of any obligation under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or breach thereof by any Loan Party (including, without limitation, any Taxes imposed or asserted on, or attributable to, amounts payable under this Section 16.1) imposed on, or paid by, such Tax Indemnitee and all reasonable costs and expenses related thereto (including reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys and other tax professionals), as and when they are incurred and irrespective of whether suit is brought, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided, that, the Loan Parties shall not be required to increase any such amount if the increase in such amount payable results from such Tax Indemnitee's own willful misconduct or gross negligence (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Loan Party that is a CFC or CFC Holding Company (including the Canadian Borrowers and the Canadian Guarantors and Luxembourg Borrower) shall be liable under this Section 16.1 with respect to any taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment made by or on account of any obligation of a US Loan Party. The obligations of the Loan Parties under this Section 16 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the resignation and replacement of the Agent, and the repayment of the Obligations.

16.2. Exemptions.

(a) If a Lender or Participant is entitled to claim an exemption or reduction from United States withholding tax, such Lender or Participant agrees with and in favor of Agent, to deliver to Agent and Administrative Borrower (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation only) one of the following before receiving its first payment under this Agreement:

(i) if such Lender or Participant is entitled to claim an exemption from United States withholding tax pursuant to the portfolio interest exception, (A) a statement of the Lender or Participant, signed under penalty of perjury, that it is not a (1) a "bank" as described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the IRC, (2) a ten percent (10%) shareholder of any Borrower (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the IRC), or (3) a controlled foreign corporation related to any Borrower within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the IRC, and (B) a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, or Form W-8IMY (with proper attachments);

(ii) if such Lender or Participant is entitled to claim an exemption from, or a reduction of, withholding tax under a United States tax treaty, a properly completed and executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable;

(iii) if such Lender or Participant is entitled to claim that interest paid under this Agreement is exempt from United States withholding tax because it is effectively connected with a United States trade or business of such Lender, a properly completed and executed copy of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(iv) if such Lender or Participant is entitled to claim that interest paid under this Agreement is exempt from United States withholding tax because such Lender or Participant serves as an intermediary, a properly completed and executed copy of IRS Form W-8IMY (with proper attachments); or

(v) a properly completed and executed copy of any other form or forms, including IRS Form W-9, as may be required under the IRC or other laws of the United States as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding or backup withholding tax, including under FATCA.

(b) (i) Each Lender or Participant shall provide new forms (or successor forms) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered forms, at the time or times prescribed by applicable Law and upon the reasonable request of the Agent or Administrative Borrower and shall promptly notify Agent and Administrative Borrower (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation only) of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction. In addition, each Lender, if reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. The completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 16.2(a) above and this Section 16.2(b)) shall not be required if in such Lender's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Borrower or the Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as many be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrowers or the Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(iii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the IRC, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Borrower and Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the IRC) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

(c) If a Lender or Participant claims an exemption from withholding tax in a jurisdiction other than the United States, such Lender or such Participant agrees with and in favor of Agent and Borrowers to deliver to Agent and Administrative Borrower (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation only) any such form or forms, as may be required under the laws of such jurisdiction as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, foreign withholding or backup withholding tax, and such other documentation as may be reasonably requested by Administrative Borrower or Agent in connection with any such exemption or reduction, before receiving its first payment under this Agreement, but only if such Lender or such Participant is legally able to deliver such forms, provided, that, nothing in this Section 16.2(c) shall require a Lender or Participant to disclose any information that it deems to be confidential (including without limitation, its tax returns). Each Lender and each Participant shall provide new forms (or successor forms) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered forms and to promptly notify Agent and Administrative Borrower (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation only) of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction.

(d) If a Lender or Participant claims exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax and such Lender or Participant sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of Borrowers to such Lender or Participant, such Lender or Participant agrees to notify Agent and Administrative Borrower (or, in the case of a sale of a participation interest, to the Lender granting the participation only) of the percentage amount in which it is no longer the beneficial owner of Obligations of Borrowers to such Lender or Participant. To the extent of such percentage amount, Agent and Administrative Borrower will treat such Lender's or such Participant's documentation provided pursuant to Section 16.2(b) or 16.2(c) as no longer valid. With respect to such percentage amount, such Participant or Assignee may provide new documentation, pursuant to Section 16.2(b) or 16.2(c), if applicable. Each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of this Section 16 with respect to its participation in any portion of the Commitments and the Obligations so long as such Participant complies with the obligations set forth in this Section 16 with respect thereto; provided, however, that such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under this Section 16 with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in law that occurs after such Participant acquired the applicable participation.

16.3. Reductions.

(a) If a Lender or a Participant is entitled to a reduction in the applicable withholding tax, Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation) may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender or such Participant an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax after taking into account such reduction. If the forms or other documentation required by Section 16.2(c) or 16.2(d) are not delivered to Agent and Administrative Borrower (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation), then Agent and Borrowers (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation) may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender or such Participant not providing such forms or other documentation an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax.

(b) If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation) did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender or any Participant due to a failure on the part of the Lender or any Participant (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify Agent (or such Participant failed to notify the Lender granting the participation) of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason) such Lender shall indemnify and hold Agent harmless (or, in the case of a Participant, such Participant shall indemnify and hold the Lender granting the participation harmless) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation), as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation only) under this Section 16, together with all costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses). The obligation of the Lenders and the Participants under this subsection shall survive the payment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of Agent.

Refunds. If Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Loan Parties or with respect to which Borrowers have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 16, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, it shall pay over such refund to Borrowers (but only to the extent of payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrowers under this Section 16 with respect to Taxes giving rise to such a refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such a refund); provided, that Borrowers, upon the request of Agent or such Lender, agree to repay the amount paid over to Borrowers (plus any penalties, interest or other charges, imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority, other than such penalties, interest or other charges imposed as a result of the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of Agent hereunder) to Agent or such Lender in the event Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 16.4 shall not be construed to require Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information which it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.


17.	GENERAL PROVISIONS.

Effectiveness. This Agreement shall be binding and deemed effective when executed by each Loan Party, Agent, and each Lender whose signature is provided for on the signature pages hereof

Section Headings. Headings and numbers have been set forth herein for convenience only. Unless the contrary is compelled by the context, everything contained in each Section applies equally to this entire Agreement.

Interpretation. Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed against the Lender Group or any Loan Party, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise. On the contrary, this Agreement has been reviewed by all parties and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to accomplish fairly the purposes and intentions of all parties hereto.

Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement shall be severable from every other provision of this Agreement for the purpose of determining the legal enforceability of any specific provision.

Bank Product Providers. Each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed a third party beneficiary hereof and of the provisions of the other Loan Documents for purposes of any reference in a Loan Document to the parties for whom Agent is acting. Agent hereby agrees to act as agent for such Bank Product Providers and, as a result of entering into a Bank Product Agreement, the applicable Bank Product Provider shall be automatically deemed to have appointed Agent as its agent and to have accepted the benefits of the Loan Documents; provided, that, the rights and benefits of each Bank Product Provider under the Loan Documents consist exclusively of such Bank Product Provider's being a beneficiary of the Liens and security interests (and, if applicable, guarantees) granted to Agent and the right to share in proceeds of the Collateral as more fully set forth herein. In addition, each Bank Product Provider, as a result of entering into a Bank Product Agreement, shall be automatically deemed to have agreed that Agent shall have the right, but shall have no obligation, to establish, maintain, reduce, or release reserves in respect of the Bank Product Obligations and that if reserves are established there is no obligation on the part of Agent to determine or insure whether the amount of any such reserve is appropriate or not. In connection with any such distribution of payments or proceeds of Collateral, Agent shall be entitled to assume no amounts are due or owing to any Bank Product Provider unless such Bank Product Provider has provided a written certification (setting forth a reasonably detailed calculation) to Agent as to the amounts that are due and owing to it and such written certification is received by Agent a reasonable period of time prior to the making of such distribution. Agent shall have no obligation to calculate the amount due and payable with respect to any Bank Products, but may rely upon the written certification of the amount due and payable from the relevant Bank Product Provider. In the absence of an updated certification, Agent shall be entitled to assume that the amount due and payable to the applicable Bank Product Provider is the amount last certified to Agent by such Bank Product Provider as being due and payable (less any distributions made to such Bank Product Provider on account thereof). Any Borrower may obtain Bank Products from any Bank Product Provider, although no Borrower is required to do so. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no Bank Product Provider has committed to provide any Bank Products and that the providing of Bank Products by any Bank Product Provider is in the sole and absolute discretion of such Bank Product Provider. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no provider or holder of any Bank Product shall have any voting or approval rights hereunder (or be deemed a Lender) solely by virtue of its status as the provider or holder of such agreements or products or the Obligations owing thereunder, nor shall the consent of any such provider or holder be required (other than in their capacities as Lenders, to the extent applicable) for any matter hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, including as to any matter relating to the Collateral or the release of Collateral or Guarantors.

Debtor-Creditor Relationship. The relationship between the Lenders and Agent, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other hand, is solely that of creditor and debtor. No member of the Lender Group has (or shall be deemed to have) any fiduciary relationship or duty to any Loan Party arising out of or in connection with the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, and there is no agency or joint venture relationship between the members of the Lender Group, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other hand, by virtue of any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein.

Counterparts; Electronic Execution. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement. The foregoing shall apply to each other Loan Document mutatis mutandis.

Revival and Reinstatement of Obligations. If the incurrence or payment of the Obligations by any Borrower or Guarantor or the transfer to the Lender Group of any property should for any reason subsequently be asserted, or declared, to be void or voidable under any state or federal law relating to creditors' rights, including provisions of the Bankruptcy Code (or under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws of Canada, including the BIA and the CCAA or under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws of Luxembourg) relating to fraudulent conveyances, preferences, or other voidable or recoverable payments of money or transfers of property (each, a "Voidable Transfer"), and if the Lender Group is required to repay or restore, in whole or in part, any such Voidable Transfer, or elects to do so upon the reasonable advice of counsel, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof that the Lender Group is required or elects to repay or restore, and as to all reasonable costs, expenses, and attorneys' fees of the Lender Group related thereto, the liability of Borrowers or Guarantor automatically shall be revived, reinstated, and restored and shall exist as though such Voidable Transfer had never been made.

17.9. Confidentiality.

(a) Agent and Lenders each individually (and not jointly or jointly and severally) agree that material, non-public information regarding Parent and its Subsidiaries, their operations, assets, and existing and contemplated business plans ("Confidential Information") shall be treated by Agent and the Lenders in a confidential manner, and shall not be disclosed by Agent and the Lenders to Persons who are not parties to this Agreement, except: (i) to attorneys for and other advisors, accountants, auditors, and consultants to any member of the Lender Group and to employees, directors and officers of any member of the Lender Group (the Persons in this clause (i), "Lender Group Representatives") on a "need to know" basis in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and on a confidential basis, (ii) to Subsidiaries and Affiliates of any member of the Lender Group (including the Bank Product Providers), provided that any such Subsidiary or Affiliate shall have agreed to receive such information hereunder subject to the terms of this Section 17.9, (iii) [reserved], (iv) as may be required by statute, decision, or judicial or administrative order, rule, or regulation, or as may be requested by any governmental authority as a result therefrom; provided that (x) prior to any disclosure under this clause (iv), the disclosing party agrees (except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by any governmental bank regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority) to provide Administrative Borrower with prior notice thereof, to the extent that it is practicable to do so and to the extent that the disclosing party is permitted to provide such prior notice to Borrowers pursuant to the terms of the applicable statute, decision, or judicial or administrative order, rule, or regulation, or request from the applicable regulatory authority, and (y) any disclosure under this clause (iv) shall be limited to the portion of the Confidential Information as may be required by such statute, decision, or judicial or administrative order, rule, or regulation or request from the applicable governmental authority, (v) as may be agreed to in advance in writing by Borrowers, (vi) as requested or required by any Governmental Authority pursuant to any subpoena or other legal process, provided, that, (A) prior to any disclosure under this clause (vi) the disclosing party agrees to provide Borrowers with prior written notice thereof, to the extent that it is practicable to do so and to the extent that the disclosing party is permitted to provide such prior written notice to Borrowers pursuant to the terms of the subpoena or other legal process and (B) any disclosure under this clause (vi) shall be limited to the portion of the Confidential Information as may be required by such Governmental Authority pursuant to such subpoena or other legal process, (vii) as to any such information that is or becomes generally available to the public (other than as a result of prohibited disclosure by Agent or the Lenders or the Lender Group Representatives), (viii) in connection with any assignment, participation or pledge of any Lender's interest under this Agreement, provided that prior to receipt of Confidential Information any such assignee, participant, or pledgee shall have agreed in writing to receive such Confidential Information hereunder subject to the terms of this Section, (ix) in connection with any litigation or other adversary proceeding involving parties hereto which such litigation or adversary proceeding involves claims related to the rights or duties of such parties under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided, that, prior to any disclosure to any Person (other than any Loan Party, Agent, any Lender, any of their respective Affiliates, or their respective counsel) under this clause (ix) with respect to litigation involving any Person (other than any Borrower, Agent, any Lender, any of their respective Affiliates, or their respective counsel), the disclosing party agrees to provide Borrowers with prior written notice thereof, and (x) in connection with, and to the extent reasonably necessary for, the exercise of any secured creditor remedy under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document.

(b) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Agent may provide customary information concerning the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to loan syndication and pricing reporting services, and Agent or any Lender may provide such information for its marketing materials, with such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications or marketing materials and may otherwise use the name, logos, and other insignia of Borrowers and Loan Parties and the Commitments provided hereunder in any "tombstone" or other advertisements, on its website or in other marketing materials of the Agent or such Lender, provided, that, the content of any "tombstones" will be reasonably acceptable to Parent.

(c) The Platform is provided "as is" and "as available." Agent does not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the Borrower Materials, or the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by Agent in connection with the Borrower Materials or the Platform. In no event shall Agent or any of the Agent-Related Persons have any liability to the Loan Parties, any Lender or any other person for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Loan Party's or Agent's transmission of communications through the Internet, except to the extent the liability of such person is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such person's bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Lender Group Expenses. Borrowers agree to pay any and all Lender Group Expenses on the earlier of (a) the first day of the month following the date on which such Lender Group Expenses were first incurred (or in the case of out-of-pocket expenses for third parties, following the date that Agent provides the invoice or other notice of such charges to Administrative Borrower) or (b) five (5) days after the date on which demand therefor is made by Agent. Borrowers agree that their respective obligations contained in this Section 17.10 shall survive payment or satisfaction in full of all other Obligations.

Survival. All representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that Agent, the Issuing Lender, or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated.

Patriot Act; Due Diligence. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the Patriot Act hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. In addition, Agent and each Lender shall have the right to periodically conduct due diligence on all Loan Parties, their senior management and key principals and legal and beneficial owners. Each Loan Party agrees to cooperate in respect of the conduct of such due diligence and further agrees that the reasonable costs and charges for any such due diligence by Agent shall constitute Lender Group Expenses hereunder and be for the account of Borrowers.

Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, reflects the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not be contradicted or qualified by any other agreement, oral or written, before the date hereof. The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, all Bank Product Agreements, if any, are independent agreements governed by the written provisions of such Bank Product Agreements, which will remain in full force and effect, unaffected by any repayment, prepayments, acceleration, reduction, increase, or change in the terms of any credit extended hereunder, except as otherwise expressly provided in such Bank Product Agreement.

17.14. Administrative Borrower as Agent for Borrowers.

(a) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes Parent ("Administrative Borrower") as its agent and attorney-in-fact to request and receive Loans and Letters of Credit pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents from Agent or any Lender or Issuing Lender in the name or on behalf of such Borrower. Agent, Lenders and Issuing Lender may disburse the Loans to such bank account of Administrative Borrower or a Borrower or otherwise make such Loans to a Borrower and provide such Letters of Credit to a Borrower as Administrative Borrower may designate or direct, without notice to any other Loan Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Agent may at any time and from time to time require that Loans to or for the account of any Borrower be disbursed directly to an operating account of such Borrower.

(b) Administrative Borrower hereby accepts the appointment by Borrowers to act as the agent and attorney-in-fact of Borrowers pursuant to this Section 17.14. Administrative Borrower shall ensure that the disbursement of any Loans to each Borrower requested by or paid to or for the account of Parent, or the issuance of any Letter of Credit for a Borrower hereunder, shall be paid to or for the account of such Borrower.

(c) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes Administrative Borrower as its agent to receive statements on account and all other notices from Agent, Lenders and Issuing Lender with respect to the Obligations or otherwise under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(d) Any notice, election, representation, warranty, agreement or undertaking by or on behalf of any other Loan Party by Administrative Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Loan Party, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Loan Party to the same extent as if made directly by such Loan Party.

(e) No resignation or termination of the appointment of Administrative Borrower as agent as aforesaid shall be effective, except after ten (10) Business Days' prior written notice to Agent. If Administrative Borrower resigns under this Agreement, Borrowers shall be entitled to appoint a successor Administrative Borrower (which shall be a Borrower). Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor Administrative Borrower hereunder, such successor Administrative Borrower shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Borrower and the term "Administrative Borrower" shall mean such successor Administrative Borrower and the retiring or terminated Administrative Borrower's appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Borrower shall be terminated.

Currency Indemnity. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court in any jurisdiction with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, it becomes necessary to convert into the currency of such jurisdiction (the "Judgment Currency") any amount due under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents in any currency other than the Judgment Currency (the "Currency Due"), then conversion shall be made at the Exchange Rate at which Agent is able, on the relevant date, to purchase the Currency Due with the Judgment Currency prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which judgment is given. In the event that there is a change in the Exchange Rate prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given and the date of receipt by Agent of the amount due, Borrowers will, on the date of receipt by Agent, pay such additional amounts, if any, as may be necessary to ensure that the amount received by Agent on such date is the amount in the Judgment Currency which when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of receipt by Agent is the amount then due under this Agreement or such other of the Loan Documents in the Currency Due. If the amount of the Currency Due which Agent is able to purchase is less than the amount of the Currency Due originally due to it, Loan Parties shall indemnify and save Agent harmless from and against loss or damage arising as a result of such deficiency. The indemnity contained herein shall constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by any Agent from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or under any judgment or order.
