The US Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any transferee thereof with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit. Neither the Issuing Bank (except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank or any of its officers, employees, agents or representatives as determined by final and non appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction), its correspondents nor any Lender shall be responsible for the validity, sufficiency

-53-

or genuineness of certificates or other documents or any endorsements thereon, even if such certificates or other documents should in fact prove to be invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmissions or delivery of any messages by mail, telex, or otherwise, whether or not they be in code; for errors in translation or for errors in interpretation of technical terms; the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; the failure of any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon any Letter of Credit; or for any other consequences arising from causes beyond the Issuing Bank’s control or the control of the Issuing Bank’s correspondents. In addition, neither the Issuing Bank (except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank or any of its officers, employees, agents or representatives), the US Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for any error, neglect, or default of any of the Issuing Bank’s correspondents; and none of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the Issuing Bank’s, the US Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s rights or powers hereunder, all of which rights shall be cumulative. The Issuing Bank and its correspondents may accept certificates or other documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation of any matter contained therein regardless of any notice or information to the contrary. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing provisions, the US Borrower agrees that any action, inaction or omission taken or not taken by the Issuing Bank or by any correspondent for the Issuing Bank in good faith in connection with any Letter of Credit, or any related drafts, certificates, documents or instruments, shall be binding on the US Borrower and shall not put the Issuing Bank or its correspondents under any resulting liability to the US Borrower.

Section 2.10 Obligation to Reimburse and to Prepay.

(a) In connection with any Letter of Credit, the US Borrower may make funds available for disbursement by the Issuing Bank in connection with such Letter of Credit. In such cases, the Issuing Bank shall use such funds which the US Borrower has made available to fund such Letter of Credit. In addition, the US Borrower may give written instructions to the Issuing Bank and the US Administrative Agent to make a Loan under this Agreement to fund any Letters of Credit which may be drawn. In all such cases, the US Borrower shall give the appropriate notices required under this Agreement for a US Dollar Base Rate Loan, a US Dollar LIBOR Reference Rate Loan or a US Dollar LIBOR Loan. If a disbursement by the Issuing Bank is made under any Letter of Credit, in cases in which the US Borrower has not either provided its own funds to fund a draw on a Letter of Credit or given the US Administrative Agent prior notice for a Loan under this Agreement, then the US Borrower shall pay to the US Administrative Agent within two (2) Business Days after notice of any such disbursement is received by the US Borrower, the amount and, in the case of any Offshore Currency Letters of Credit, the US Dollar Equivalent determined on the date of such disbursement, of each such disbursement made by the Issuing Bank under the Letter of Credit (if such payment is not sooner effected as may be required under this Section 2.10 or under other provisions of the Letter of Credit), together with interest on the amount disbursed from and including the date of disbursement until payment in full of such disbursed amount at a varying rate per annum equal to (i) the then applicable interest rate for US Dollar Base Rate Loans through the second Business Day after notice of such disbursement is received by the US Borrower and (ii) thereafter, the

-54-

Post-Default Rate for US Dollar Base Rate Loans (but in no event to exceed the Highest Lawful Rate) for the period from and including the third Business Day following the date of such disbursement to and including the date of repayment in full of such disbursed amount. The obligations of the US Borrower under this Agreement with respect to each Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid or performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances whatsoever, including but only to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, the following circumstances: (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any of the Security Instruments; (B) any amendment or waiver of (including any default), or any consent to departure from this Agreement (except to the extent permitted under any amendment or waiver), any Letter of Credit or any of the Security Instruments; (C) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other rights which the US Borrower may have at any time against the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Issuing Bank, the US Administrative Agent, any US Tranche Revolving Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the Security Instruments, the transactions contemplated hereby or any unrelated transaction; (D) any statement, certificate, draft, notice or any other document presented under any Letter of Credit proves to have been forged, fraudulent, insufficient or invalid in any respect or any statement therein proves to have been untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (E) payment by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate which appears on its face to comply, but does not comply, with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and (F) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the US Borrower will not be liable for payment or performance that results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank or its officers, employees, agents or representatives, except where the US Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary actually recovers the proceeds for itself or the Issuing Bank of any payment made by the Issuing Bank in connection with such gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(b) In the event of the occurrence of any Event of Default, a payment or prepayment pursuant to Section 2.07(b) or the maturity of the Loans, whether by acceleration or otherwise, an amount equal to the LC Exposure, except for all Offshore Currency Letters of Credit which shall equal an amount equal to 110% of the aggregate face amount of all such Offshore Currency Letters of Credit based on the then US Dollar Equivalent, shall be deemed to be forthwith due and owing by the US Borrower to the Issuing Bank, the US Administrative Agent and the US Tranche Revolving Lenders as of the date of any such occurrence; and the US Borrower’s obligation to pay such amount (or provide one or more Support Letters of Credit in a face amount equal to such amount) shall be absolute and unconditional, without regard to whether any beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit has attempted to draw down all or a portion of such amount under the terms of a Letter of Credit, and, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, shall not be subject to any defense or be affected by a right of set-off, counterclaim or recoupment which the US Borrower may now or hereafter have against any such beneficiary, the Issuing Bank, the US Administrative Agent, the US Tranche Revolving Lenders or any other Person for any reason whatsoever. The US Borrower will have a continuing obligation to maintain in such account at least an amount in cash or one or more Support Letters

-55-

of Credit equal to 110% of the aggregate face amount of all such Offshore Currency Letters of Credit based on the then US Dollar Equivalent. Such payments shall be held by the US Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank on behalf of the US Tranche Revolving Lenders, as collateral securing the LC Exposure in an account or accounts at the Principal Office; and the US Borrower hereby grants to, and by its deposit with the US Administrative Agent grants to, the US Administrative Agent a security interest in such collateral. In the event of any such payment by the US Borrower of amounts contingently owing under outstanding Letters of Credit and in the event that thereafter drafts or other demands for payment complying with the terms of such Letters of Credit are not made prior to the respective expiration dates thereof, the US Administrative Agent agrees, if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or if no other amounts are outstanding under this Agreement, the Loans or the Security Instruments, to (i) remit to the US Borrower (A) such amounts for which the contingent obligations evidenced by the Letters of Credit have ceased and (B) amounts on deposit as cash collateral for Letters of Credit and (ii) cancel and return any outstanding Support Letters of Credit issued in connection therewith.

(c) Each US Tranche Revolving Lender severally and unconditionally agrees that it shall promptly reimburse the US Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, in US Dollars an amount equal to such Lender’s participation in any Letter of Credit as provided in Section 2.01(b) of any disbursement made by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit that is not reimbursed according to this Section 2.10 (other than with respect to disbursements described in the second paragraph of Section 2.10(a)), and such obligation to reimburse is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. If the US Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the US Administrative Agent shall notify each US Tranche Revolving Lender of the applicable disbursement, the payment then due from the US Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s applicable percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each US Tranche Revolving Lender shall pay to the US Administrative Agent its applicable percentage of the payment then due from the US Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(f) with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.02(f) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the US Tranche Revolving Lenders), and the US Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the US Tranche Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the US Administrative Agent of any payment from the US Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the US Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that US Tranche Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such US Tranche Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any disbursement shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the US Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such disbursement.

If no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and subject to availability under the Aggregate Revolving Commitments (after reduction for the LC Exposure), to the extent the US Borrower has not reimbursed the Issuing Bank for any drawn upon Letter of Credit within one

-56-

(1) Business Day after notice of such disbursement has been received by the US Borrower, the amount of such Letter of Credit reimbursement obligation shall automatically be funded by the US Tranche Revolving Lenders as a Loan hereunder and used to pay such Letter of Credit reimbursement obligation in the percentages referenced in clause (c) above. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or if the funding of such Letter of Credit reimbursement obligation as a Loan would cause the aggregate amount of all Loans outstanding to exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitments (after reduction for the LC Exposure), such Letter of Credit reimbursement obligation shall not be funded as a Loan, but instead shall accrue interest as provided in Section 2.10(a) and be subject to reimbursement under Section 2.10(c).

Section 2.11 Bankers’ Acceptances and BA Equivalent Loans.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Canadian Allocated Commitments may be utilized, upon the request of the Canadian Borrower, in addition to Canadian Prime Rate Loans, US Dollar Base Rate Loans and US Dollar LIBOR Loans provided for by Section 2.01(a), for the acceptance and purchase by the Canadian Tranche Revolving Lenders of Bankers’ Acceptances issued by the Canadian Borrower or the making of BA Equivalent Loans, provided that (i) in no event shall the US Dollar Equivalent Amount of the aggregate amount of the Canadian Prime Rate Loans, Bankers’ Acceptances and BA Equivalent Loans and the aggregate amount of the US Dollar Base Rate Loans and the US Dollar LIBOR Loans owing to the Canadian Tranche Revolving Lenders exceed the Canadian Allocated Aggregate Commitments, (ii) all Bankers’ Acceptances and BA Equivalent Notes shall have maturities which fall on a Business Day and are an integral multiple of thirty (30) days, and are not less than thirty (30) days or more than 180 days, from the Acceptance Date (and shall in no event mature on a date after the Revolving Loan Maturity Date) and (iii) in no event shall the face amount of any Borrowing by way of Bankers’ Acceptance or BA Equivalent Loan be less than C$1,000,000 and other than in multiples of C$100,000 for any amounts in excess thereof. Whenever the Canadian Borrower is required to furnish a notice to the Canadian Administrative Agent pursuant to the following additional provisions of this Section 2.11, it shall give a copy of such notice to the US Administrative Agent.

(b) To facilitate the acceptance of Bankers’ Acceptances and the issuance of BA Equivalent Notes under this Agreement, the Canadian Borrower shall, from time to time as required, provide to the Canadian Administrative Agent Drafts and BA Equivalent Notes duly executed and endorsed in blank by the Canadian Borrower in quantities sufficient for each Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender to fulfill its obligations hereunder. In addition, the Canadian Borrower hereby appoints each Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender as its attorney, with respect to Drafts and BA Equivalent Notes for which the Canadian Borrower has provided a Bankers’ Acceptance or BA Equivalent Loan notice:

(i) to complete and sign on behalf of the Canadian Borrower, either manually or by facsimile or mechanical signature, the BA Equivalent Notes or the Drafts to create the Bankers’ Acceptances (with, in each Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender’s discretion, the inscription “This is a depository bill subject to the Depository Bills and Notes Act (Canada)”), as applicable;

-57-

(ii) after the acceptance thereof by any Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender, to endorse on behalf of the Canadian Borrower, either manually or by facsimile or mechanical signature, such Bankers’ Acceptance or BA Equivalent Note in favor of the applicable purchaser or endorsee thereof including, in such Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender’s discretion, such Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender or a clearing house (as defined by the DBNA);

(iii) to deliver such Bankers’ Acceptances (or such BA Equivalent Notes) to such purchaser or to deposit such Bankers’ Acceptances with such clearing house; and

(iv) to comply with the procedures and requirements established from time to time by such Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender or such clearing house in respect of the delivery, transfer and collection of Drafts and Bankers’ Acceptances (or BA Equivalent Notes).

The Canadian Borrower recognizes and agrees that all Drafts, Bankers’ Acceptances and BA Equivalent Notes signed, endorsed, delivered or deposited on its behalf by a Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender shall bind the Canadian Borrower as fully and effectually as if signed in the handwriting of and duly issued, delivered or deposited by the proper signing officer of the Canadian Borrower. Each Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender is hereby authorized to accept such Drafts or issue such Bankers’ Acceptances endorsed in blank or issue BA Equivalent Notes in such face amounts as may be determined by such Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, provided that the aggregate amount thereof is less than or equal to the aggregate amount of Bankers’ Acceptances required to be accepted by or BA Equivalent Loans made by such Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender. No Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender shall be responsible or liable for its failure to accept a Bankers’ Acceptance or make a BA Equivalent Loan if the cause of such failure is, in whole or in part, due to the failure of the Canadian Borrower to provide duly executed and endorsed Drafts or BA Equivalent Notes to the Canadian Administrative Agent on a timely basis, nor shall any Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender be liable for any damage, loss or other claim arising by reason of any loss or improper use of any such instrument except loss or improper use arising by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender, its officers, employees, agents or representatives. The Canadian Administrative Agent and each Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender shall exercise such care in the custody and safekeeping of Drafts and BA Equivalent Notes as it would exercise in the custody and safekeeping of similar property owned by it. Each Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender will, upon the request of the Canadian Borrower, promptly advise the Canadian Borrower of the number and designation, if any, of Drafts and BA Equivalent Notes then held by it for the Canadian Borrower. Each Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender shall maintain a record with respect to Drafts and Bankers’ Acceptances (A) received by it from the Canadian Administrative Agent in blank hereunder, (B) voided by it for any reason, (C) accepted by it hereunder, (D) purchased by it hereunder and (E) canceled at their respective maturities and of BA Equivalent Notes (1) received by it from the Canadian Administrative Agent in blank hereunder, (2) voided by it for any reason and (3) canceled at their respective maturities. Each Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender further agrees to retain such records in the manner and for the statutory periods provided in the various Canadian provincial or federal statutes and regulations which apply to such Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender.

-58-

(c) When the Canadian Borrower wishes to make a Borrowing by way of Bankers’ Acceptances or BA Equivalent Loans, the Canadian Borrower shall give the Administrative Agents a borrowing notice in the form of Exhibit B-2 with respect to the issuance of the Bankers’ Acceptances or BA Equivalent Notes by not later than 1:00 p.m. Eastern time, three (3) Business Days’ prior to the Acceptance Date. Each borrowing notice shall be irrevocable and binding on the Canadian Borrower. The Canadian Borrower shall indemnify each Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender against any loss or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure by the Canadian Borrower to fulfill or honor before the date specified as the Acceptance Date, the applicable conditions set forth in ARTICLE VI, if, as a result of such failure the requested Bankers’ Acceptance or a BA Equivalent Loan is not made on such date. Unless otherwise agreed among the Administrative Agents and the Canadian Tranche Revolving Lenders, the aggregate amount of all Bankers’ Acceptances or BA Equivalent Notes issued on any Acceptance Date hereunder shall be accepted pro rata, subject to Section 2.11(g), by all Canadian Tranche Revolving Lenders relative to their respective Canadian Tranche Percentage. Upon receipt of a borrowing notice, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall advise each Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender of the contents thereof. Upon the acceptance of a Bankers’ Acceptance or a BA Equivalent Note by a Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender, such Lender shall purchase such Bankers’ Acceptance from or make such BA Equivalent Loan to the Canadian Borrower and pay to the Canadian Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon Eastern time, on the day of such Borrowing, for the account of the Canadian Borrower, the amount of the BA Net Proceeds in respect of such Bankers’ Acceptance or BA Equivalent Loan.

(d) On each day during the period commencing with the issuance by the Canadian Borrower of any Bankers’ Acceptance and until such BA Exposure shall have been paid by the Canadian Borrower, the Canadian Allocated Commitment of each Accepting Lender that is able to extend credit by way of Bankers’ Acceptances shall be deemed to be utilized for all purposes of this Agreement in an amount equal to the Principal Amount of such Bankers’ Acceptance. The Canadian Allocated Commitment of any Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender providing a BA Equivalent Loan rather than Bankers’ Acceptances shall be deemed utilized during this period in an amount equal to the Principal Amount of the BA Equivalent Note for such BA Equivalent Loan.

(e) The Canadian Borrower agrees to pay on the BA Maturity Date for each Bankers’ Acceptance and BA Equivalent Note, to the Canadian Administrative Agent for account of each Accepting Lender, an amount equal to the Principal Amount of such Bankers’ Acceptance or BA Equivalent Note. The Canadian Borrower hereby waives presentment for payment of Bankers’ Acceptances or BA Equivalent Note by each Accepting Lender and any defense to payment of amounts due to an Accepting Lender in respect of a Bankers’ Acceptance or BA Equivalent Note which might exist by reason of such Bankers’ Acceptance or BA Equivalent Note being held at maturity by the Accepting Lender which accepted it and agree not to claim from such Lender any days of grace for the payment at maturity of Bankers’ Acceptances or BA Equivalent Notes.

(f) If the Canadian Borrower fails to notify the Canadian Administrative Agent in writing not later than 1:00 p.m. Eastern time, on the Business Day prior to any BA Maturity Date that the Canadian Borrower intends to pay the Bankers’ Acceptances and BA Equivalent Loans due on such BA Maturity Date, or fails to make such payment, the Canadian

-59-

Borrower shall be deemed, for all purposes to have given the Canadian Administrative Agent notice of a borrowing of a Canadian Prime Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.02(a) for an amount equal to the Principal Amount of such Bankers’ Acceptance and BA Equivalent Loan; provided that:

(i) the BA Maturity Date for such Bankers’ Acceptances shall be considered to be the date of such Borrowing;

(ii) the proceeds of such Canadian Prime Rate Loan shall be used to pay the Principal Amount of the Bankers’ Acceptance due on such BA Maturity Date;

(iii) each Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender which has made a maturing BA Equivalent Loan (in accordance with Section 2.11(g) hereof) shall continue to extend credit to the Canadian Borrower (without further advance of funds to the Canadian Borrower) by way of a Canadian Prime Rate Loan in the Principal Amount equal to its maturing BA Equivalent Loan; and

(iv) the Canadian Administrative Agent shall promptly and in any event within three (3) Business Days following the BA Maturity Date of such Bankers’ Acceptances and such BA Equivalent Loans, notify the Canadian Borrower in writing of the making of or converting to such Canadian Prime Rate Loan pursuant to this Section 2.11(f).

(g) If, in the sole judgment of a Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender, such Lender is unable, as a result of applicable law, customary market practice or otherwise, to extend credit by way of Bankers’ Acceptances in accordance with this Agreement, such Lender shall give notice to such effect to the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Borrower prior to 11:00 a.m. Eastern time, on the date of the requested credit extension (which notice may, if so stated therein, remain in effect with respect to subsequent requests for extension of credit by way of Bankers’ Acceptances until revoked by notice to the Administrative Agents and the Canadian Borrower) and shall make available to the Canadian Administrative Agent, in accordance with this Section 2.11, prior to 2:00 p.m. Eastern time on the date of such requested credit extension, a BA Equivalent Loan in an amount equal to the BA Net Proceeds equivalent to such Lender’s Canadian Tranche Percentage of the total amount of credit requested to be extended by way of Bankers’ Acceptances.

(h) It is the intention of the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Canadian Tranche Revolving Lenders, and the Canadian Borrower that, except to the extent a Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender advises otherwise, pursuant to the DBNA, all Bankers’ Acceptances accepted by the Canadian Tranche Revolving Lenders under this Agreement shall be issued in the form of a “depository bill” (as defined in the DBNA), deposited with the Canadian Depository for Securities Limited and made payable to CDS & Co.

(i) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Canadian Borrower receives notice from the Canadian Tranche Revolving Lenders with BA Exposure representing greater than 66²/₃% of the total BA Exposure or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, from the Canadian Administrative Agent, the US Administrative Agent, or the Majority Lenders, demanding the deposit of cash collateral

-60-

pursuant to this paragraph, the Canadian Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Canadian Administrative Agent, in the name of the Canadian Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Canadian Tranche Revolving Lenders with BA Exposure, an amount in cash equal to the total BA Exposure of the Canadian Borrower as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 11.01(f) or Section 11.01(g). Any such deposit shall be held by the Canadian Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Canadian Borrower under this Agreement. The Canadian Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Canadian Administrative Agent and at the Canadian Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Canadian Administrative Agent for the satisfaction of the obligations of the Canadian Borrower with respect to the BA Exposure at any BA Maturity Date or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Canadian Borrower under this Agreement (but subject to the consent of Canadian Tranche Revolving Lenders with BA Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total BA Exposure). If the Canadian Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Canadian Borrower within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

(j) Drafts of the Canadian Borrower to be accepted as Bankers’ Acceptances and BA Equivalent Notes hereunder shall be duly executed on behalf of the Canadian Borrower. Notwithstanding that any person whose signature appears on any Bankers’ Acceptance or BA Equivalent Note as a signatory for the Canadian Borrower may no longer be an authorized signatory for the Canadian Borrower at the date of issuance of a Bankers’ Acceptance or advance of a BA Equivalent Loan, such signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes as if such authority had remained in force at the time of such issuance or advance, and any such Bankers’ Acceptance or BA Equivalent Note so signed shall be binding on the Canadian Borrower.

(k) Each Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender may at any time and from time to time hold, sell, rediscount or otherwise dispose of any or all Bankers’ Acceptances accepted and purchased by it.

(l) If the Canadian Administrative Agent determines in good faith, which determination shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Canadian Borrower, and so notifies the Canadian Borrower, that there does not exist at the applicable time a normal market in Canada for the purchase and sale of Bankers’ Acceptances, any right of the Canadian Borrower to require the Canadian Tranche Revolving Lenders to purchase Bankers’ Acceptances and BA Equivalent Notes under this Agreement shall be suspended until the Canadian Administrative Agent determines that such market does exist and gives notice thereof to the Canadian Borrower; and any outstanding borrowing notice requesting Bankers’ Acceptances shall be deemed to be a

-61-

borrowing notice requesting a Canadian Prime Rate Loan in the same aggregate Principal Amount.

(m) Bankers’ Acceptances and BA Equivalent Notes may not be repaid prior to their respective BA Maturity Dates, unless the Canadian Borrower deposits cash with the Canadian Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the applicable Accepting Lenders) equal to the full Principal Amount at maturity of such Bankers’ Acceptances and/or BA Equivalent Notes, and concurrently delivers to the Canadian Administrative Agent a cash collateral agreement, supporting resolutions, certificates and opinions in form and substance satisfactory to the applicable Accepting Lenders as requested.

(ii) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3.02 or any other provision of this Agreement, in no event shall the aggregate “interest” (as that term is defined in Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada)) exceed the effective annual rate of interest on the “credit advanced” (as defined therein) lawfully permitted under Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada). The effective annual rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles over the term of the applicable Canadian Tranche Loan, and in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries qualified for a period of ten (10) years appointed by the Canadian Administrative Agent and approved by the Canadian Borrower, such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, will be conclusive for the purposes of such determination absent manifest error.

-64-

(iii) A certificate of an authorized signing officer of the US Administrative Agent as to each amount and/or each rate of interest payable hereunder from time to time shall be conclusive evidence of such amount and of such rate, absent manifest error.

(iv) Wherever in this Agreement reference is made to a rate of interest “per annum” or a similar expression is used, such interest shall be calculated using the nominal rate method of calculation and shall not be calculated using the effective rate method of calculation or any other basis that gives effect to the principal of deemed reinvestment of interest.

Accrued interest on US Dollar Base Rate Loans and Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall be payable on each Quarterly Date, and accrued interest on each US Dollar LIBOR Loan shall be payable on the last day of the Interest Period therefor and, if such Interest Period is longer than three months, at three-month intervals following the first day of such Interest Period, except that interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand and interest on any US Dollar LIBOR Loan that is converted into a US Dollar Base Rate Loan (pursuant to Section 5.04) shall be payable on the date of conversion (but only to the extent so converted).

Such payments shall be made without (to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law) defense, set-off or counterclaim. Each such payment so received by the Applicable Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any Note for account of a Lender shall be paid promptly to such Lender in immediately available funds. Except as otherwise provided in the definition of “Interest Period”, if the due date of any payment under this Agreement, any Loan or any Note would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall be payable for any principal so extended for the period of such extension. At the time of each payment to the Applicable Administrative Agent of any principal of or interest on any Borrowing, the Applicable Borrower shall notify the Applicable Administrative Agent of the Loans to which such payment shall apply. In the absence of such notice, the Administrative Agents may specify the Loans to which such payment shall apply, but to the extent possible such payment or prepayment will be applied first to the Loans comprised of US Dollar Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans.

Section 4.02 Pro Rata Treatment. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, each Lender agrees that: (a) each Borrowing under Section 2.01 and each continuation and conversion under Section 2.02 shall be made from the Applicable Lenders pro rata in accordance with their US Tranche Percentages, Canadian Tranche Percentages or Term Loan Percentages, as the case may be, each payment of fees under Section 2.04 shall be made for account of the Applicable Lenders pro rata in accordance with such same percentages; (b) each termination or reduction of the amount of the Aggregate US Tranche Commitments under Section 2.03(b)(i) shall be applied to the US Tranche Commitment of each Applicable Lender, pro rata in accordance with its US Tranche Percentage; (c) each allocation and reallocation of the Aggregate US Tranche Commitments and the Canadian Allocated Commitments under Section 2.03(b)(ii) shall be made for the account of each US Tranche Revolving Lender and each Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender according to its respective Percentage Share; (d) each payment of Commitment Fees under Section 2.04(a) shall be made to each US Tranche Revolving Lender and Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender or Term Loan Lender, as applicable, in accordance with their respective Percentage Shares; (e) each payment or prepayment of principal of Loans by each Borrower shall be made for account of the Applicable Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid Principal Amount of the Loans held by the Applicable Lenders; (f) each payment of interest on Loans by each Borrower shall be made for account of the Applicable Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest due and payable to the Applicable Lenders; and (g) each reimbursement by the US Borrower of disbursements under Letters of Credit shall be made for account of the applicable Issuing Bank or, if funded by the US Tranche Revolving Lenders, pro rata for the account of the US Tranche Revolving Lenders, in accordance with the amounts of reimbursement obligations due and payable to each respective US Tranche Revolving Lender.

Section 4.03 Computations. Interest on US Dollar LIBOR Loans and US Dollar LIBOR Reference Rate Loans and fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable, unless such calculation would exceed the Highest Lawful Rate, in which case interest shall be calculated on the per annum basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be. Interest on US Dollar Base Rate Loans shall be computed on the basis of a year

-66-

of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. Interest on Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall be computed as provided in Section 3.02(b).

Section 4.04 Agent Reliance. Except with respect to Swingline Loans made pursuant to Section 2.01(a)(iv), unless the US Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender before the date of any Borrowing of the proceeds of the Loan that such Lender will not make available to the Applicable Administrative Agent such Lender’s Percentage Share of such advance, such Applicable Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made its Percentage Share of such Borrowing available to such Applicable Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.02(c) and such Applicable Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Applicable Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made its Percentage Share of such Borrowing available to such Applicable Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to immediately pay to such Applicable Administrative Agent on demand such corresponding amount, together with interest on such amount, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Applicable Borrower until the date such amount is paid to the Applicable Administrative Agent, at the overnight Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall pay to the Applicable Administrative Agent such corresponding amount and interest as provided above, such corresponding amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement even though not made on the same day as the other advances comprising such Borrowing.

Section 4.05 Set-off, Sharing of Payments, Etc.

(a) Each Borrower agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of set-off, bankers’ lien or counterclaim a Lender may otherwise have, each Lender shall have the right and be entitled (after consultation with the US Administrative Agent), at its option, to offset balances held by it or by any of its Affiliates for account of the Applicable Borrower at any of its offices, in US Dollars or in any other currency, against any principal of or interest on any of such Lender’s Loans, or any other amount payable to such Lender hereunder, which is not paid when due (including applicable grace periods) (regardless of whether such balances are then due to such Borrower), in which case it shall promptly notify the Applicable Borrower and the US Administrative Agent thereof, provided that such Lender’s failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity thereof.

(b) If any Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan made by it to a Borrower under this Agreement (or reimbursement as to any Letter of Credit) through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker’s lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise, and, as a result of such payment, such Lender shall have received a greater percentage of the principal or interest (or reimbursement) then due hereunder by the Applicable Borrower to such Lender than the percentage received by any other Applicable Lenders, it shall promptly (i) notify the US Administrative Agent and each other Lender (including the Canadian Administrative Agent) thereof and (ii) purchase from such other Applicable Lenders participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Applicable Lender, direct interests in) the Loans (or participations in Letters of Credit) made by such other Applicable Lenders (or in interest due thereon, as the case may be) in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from

-67-

time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the Applicable Lenders shall share the benefit of such excess payment (net of any expenses which may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such excess payment) pro rata in accordance with the unpaid principal and/or interest on the Loans held by each of the Applicable Lenders (or reimbursements of Letters of Credit). To such end all the Applicable Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored. Each Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation (or direct interest) in the Loans made by other Lenders (or in interest due thereon, as the case may be) may exercise all rights of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans (or Letters of Credit) in the amount of such participation. Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of each Borrower. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a set-off to which this Section 4.05 applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Applicable Lenders entitled under this Section 4.05 to share the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Lenders hereby agree that they shall not set off any funds in any lock boxes whatsoever in connection with this Agreement, except for such lock boxes which may be established in connection with this Agreement.

Section 4.06 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free and Clear. Any and all payments by each Borrower hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 4.01, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agents (each a “Recipient”), taxes imposed on (or measured by) its net income and franchise, margin or similar taxes imposed on it, by (i) any jurisdiction (or political subdivision thereof) of which such Recipient is a citizen or resident or in which such Lender has an Applicable Lending Office, (ii) the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) in which such Recipient is organized or (iii) any jurisdiction (or political subdivision thereof) in which such Recipient is presently doing business which taxes are imposed solely as a result of doing business in such jurisdiction (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). For the avoidance of doubt, any withholding taxes imposed by the United States of America on payments made by any Borrower hereunder shall be included within the definition of “Taxes.” If any Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to a Recipient, (A) except as provided in Section 13.06(b), the sum payable shall be increased by the amount necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.06) such Recipient shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (B) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (C) such

-68-

Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) Other Taxes. In addition, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, each Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, any Assignment or any Security Instrument (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, the Applicable Borrower will indemnify each Applicable Lender and the Applicable Administrative Agent, and in the case of the US Borrower only, each Issuing Bank, for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including, but not limited to, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority on amounts payable under this Section 4.06) paid by such Applicable Lender, Applicable Administrative Agent (on its behalf or on behalf of any Applicable Lender) or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted unless the payment of such Taxes was not correctly or legally asserted and such Lender’s payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes was the result of its or its officers’, employees’, agents’ or representatives’ gross negligence or willful misconduct. Any payment pursuant to such indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date the Applicable Lender, the Applicable Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, make written demand therefore and the Applicable Borrower shall deliver notice of such payment to the Applicable Lender, the Applicable Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be. If a Lender, an Administrative Agent or an Issuing Bank receives a refund or credit in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes for which such Lender, the Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank has received payment from the Applicable Borrower it shall promptly notify the Applicable Borrower of such refund or credit and shall, if no Default has occurred and is continuing, within thirty (30) days after receipt of a request by the Applicable Borrower (or promptly upon receipt, if the Applicable Borrower has requested application for such refund or credit pursuant hereto), pay an amount equal to such refund or credit to the Applicable Borrower without interest (but with any interest so refunded or credited), provided that the Applicable Borrower, upon the request of such Lender, Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, agrees to return such refund or credit (plus penalties, interest or other charges) to such Lender, Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank in the event such Lender, Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund or credit.

(d) Lender Representations.

(i) Each US Lender represents that it is either (A) a “United States person” (as such term is defined in Code Section 7701(a)(30)) or (B) is entitled to complete exemption from United States withholding tax imposed on or with respect to any payments, including fees, to be made to it pursuant to this Agreement (1) under an applicable provision of a tax convention to which the United States of America is a party, (2) because such US Lender is not described in Code Sections 871(h)(3) or 881(c)(3), or (3) because it is acting through a branch, agency or office in the United States of America

-69-

and any payment to be received by it hereunder is effectively connected with a trade or business in the United States of America. Each US Lender that is not a “United States person” (as such term is defined in Code Section 7701(a)(30)) agrees to provide to the US Borrower and the US Administrative Agent on the Initial Funding Date, or on the date of its delivery of the Assignment pursuant to which it becomes a US Tranche Revolving Lender or Term Loan Lender, and at such other times as required by United States law or as a US Borrower or the US Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, two accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI or W-8IMY (or successor or other applicable forms prescribed by the IRS) certifying to such US Lender’s entitlement to a complete exemption from United States withholding Tax on interest payments to be made under this Agreement; provided, however, that no such US Lender shall be required to deliver an IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI, or W-8IMY to the extent that the delivery of such form is not authorized by law due to a change in a Governmental Requirement occurring subsequent to the date on which a form was originally required to be provided; provided further, however, that in the event that a US Lender provides the US Borrower or the US Administrative Agent with an IRS Form W-8-IMY (or substitute form) indicating that it is a “flow through” entity, as defined in Treasury Regulations promulgated under Code Section 1441, or otherwise, not a beneficial owner of interest payments under this Agreement, such US Lender agrees, on or prior to the Initial Funding Date, or the date of Assignment to such US Lender, as applicable, to take any actions necessary, and to deliver to the US Borrower and the US Administrative Agent all forms necessary, to establish such US Lender’s entitlement to a complete exemption from United States withholding Tax on payments of interest to be made under this Agreement, including causing its partners, members, beneficiaries, beneficial owners, and their beneficial owners, if any, to take any actions and deliver any forms necessary to establish such exemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a withholding foreign partnership, withholding foreign trust, and qualified intermediary shall only provide such information as is required by Treasury Regulations promulgated under Code Section 1441. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “forms” shall include any attachments to IRS Forms W-8IMY required to be filed by the US Lender.

(ii) Each US Lender that is a “United States person” (as such term is defined in Code Section 7701(a)(30)) shall provide two properly completed and duly executed copies of IRS Form W-9, or any successor or other applicable form. Each such US Lender shall deliver to the US Borrower and the US Administrative Agent (provided that such US Lender remains lawfully able to do so), two further duly executed copies of such form or statement, properly completed in all material respects, at or before the time any such form or statement expires or becomes obsolete, or otherwise as reasonably requested by the US Borrower. Each such US Lender shall promptly notify the US Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered form or statement to the US Borrower and the US Administrative Agent (or any other form or statement adopted by U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose).

(iii) Each US Lender also agrees to deliver to the US Borrower and the US Administrative Agent such other or supplemental forms as may at any time be required as a result of changes in applicable law or regulation in order to confirm or maintain in effect its entitlement to exemption from United States withholding Tax on any payments

-70-

hereunder, provided that the circumstances of such US Lender at the relevant time and applicable laws permit it to do so. If a US Lender determines, as a result of any change in either (i) a Governmental Requirement or (ii) its circumstances, that it is unable to submit any form or certificate that it is obligated to submit pursuant to this Section 4.06, or that it is required to withdraw or cancel any such form or certificate previously submitted, it shall promptly notify the US Borrower and the US Administrative Agent of such fact. Except as provided in Section 4.06(d)(iv), each US Lender agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the US Borrower or the US Administrative Agent, as applicable, from any United States Taxes, penalties, interest and other expenses, costs and losses incurred or payable by (A) the US Borrower or the US Administrative Agent as a result of such US Lender’s failure to submit any form or certificate that it is required to provide pursuant to this Section 4.06 or (B) the US Borrower or the US Administrative Agent as a result of their reliance on any such form or certificate which such US Lender has provided to them pursuant to this Section 4.06.

(iv) For any period with respect to which a US Lender has failed to provide the US Borrower with the form required pursuant to this Section 4.06, if any (other than if such failure is due to a change in a Governmental Requirement occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided, in which case, such US Lender shall be entitled to indemnification under this Section 4.06 (including the right to receive additional amounts pursuant to Section 4.06(a)(A)) and shall not be required to indemnify the US Borrower or the US Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 4.06(d)(iii)(A)), such US Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 4.06 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States which Taxes would not have been imposed but for such failure to provide such forms; provided, however, that if a US Lender, which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding Tax, becomes subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the US Borrower shall take such steps as such US Lender shall reasonably request to assist such US Lender to recover such Taxes.

(v) Any US Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.06 shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document requested by the US Borrower or the US Administrative Agent or to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office or to contest any Tax imposed if the making of such a filing or change or contesting such Tax would avoid the need for or reduce the amount of any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole determination of such US Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such US Lender.

(vi) Each Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender represents that it is (A) either (x) not a non-resident of Canada for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) or (y) a deemed resident of Canada for purposes of Part XIII of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and (B) an Affiliate of a US Tranche Revolving Lender. Each Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Canadian Borrower or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as applicable, from any Canadian taxes, penalties, interest and other expenses, costs and losses incurred or payable by the Canadian Borrower or the Canadian Administrative Agent as a result of its reliance on any representation in this

-71-

Section 4.06(d)(vi) (other than if such misrepresentation is due to a change in a Governmental Requirement occurring subsequent to the date on which such representation was made, in which case, such Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender shall be entitled to indemnification under this Section 4.06 (including the right to receive additional amounts pursuant to Section 4.06(a)(A)) and shall not be required to indemnify the Canadian Borrower or the Canadian Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 4.06(d)(vi)).

(e) Any Person demanding payment pursuant to this Section 4.06 shall make written demand on the Applicable Borrower for reimbursement hereunder no later than 180 days after the date on which such Person makes payment of such amount. Any such demand shall describe in reasonable detail such item to be reimbursed, including the amount thereof if then known to such Person. In the event that such Person fails to give the Applicable Borrower timely notice as provided herein, the Applicable Borrower shall have no obligation to pay such claim for reimbursement.

ARTICLE V
Capital Adequacy

Section 5.01 Additional Costs.

(a) Regulations, etc. The Borrowers shall pay directly to each Applicable Lender from time to time such amounts as such Lender may determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender for any increased costs which it determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any US Dollar LIBOR Loans, accepting and purchasing Bankers’ Acceptances, making or maintaining BA Equivalent Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit hereunder or its obligation to make any US Dollar LIBOR Loans, purchase any Bankers’ Acceptances, make any BA Equivalent Loans or issue or participate in any Letters of Credit hereunder, or any reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender hereunder in respect of any of such US Dollar LIBOR Loans, Bankers’ Acceptances, BA Equivalent Loans, Letters of Credit or such obligation, resulting from any Regulatory Change which: (i) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement, any Loan or any Note or BA Equivalent Note or BA Equivalent Loan in respect of any of such US Dollar LIBOR Loans, Bankers’ Acceptances, BA Equivalent Loans or Letters of Credit (other than taxes imposed on the overall net income of such Lender or of its Applicable Lending Office for any of such US Dollar LIBOR Loans by the jurisdiction in which such Lender has its principal office or Applicable Lending Office or any other taxes excluded from the definitions of Taxes and Other Taxes); or (ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit, minimum capital, capital ratio or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of such Lender or Issuing Bank, or the US Tranche Commitment, Canadian Allocated Commitment, Term Commitment or Loans of such Lender or the London interbank market or the Letters of Credit of an Issuing Bank; or (iii) imposes any other condition affecting this Agreement, any Note, BA Equivalent Note (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities) or Letters of Credit, or such Lender’s US Tranche Commitment, Canadian Allocated Commitment, Term Commitment or Loans or the Letters of Credit of an Issuing Bank. Each Lender and Issuing Bank will notify the US Administrative Agent and the Applicable Borrower of any event occurring after the Initial Funding Date which will entitle such Lender or Issuing

-72-

Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 5.01(a) as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation, and shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Applicable Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (y) would eliminate or reduce amounts of such compensation in the future and (z) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Applicable Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. If any Lender requests compensation from any Borrower under this Section 5.01(a), such Borrower may, by notice to such Lender, suspend the obligation of such Lender to make additional Loans of the Type with respect to which such compensation is requested until the Regulatory Change giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 5.04 shall be applicable).

(b) Regulatory Change. Without limiting the effect of the provisions of Section 5.01(a), in the event that at any time (by reason of any Regulatory Change or any other circumstances arising after the Initial Funding Date affecting (i) any Lender, (ii) the London interbank market or (iii) such Lender’s position in such market), the US Dollar LIBO Rate, as determined in good faith by such Lender, will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of funding its US Dollar LIBOR Loans or its US Dollar LIBOR Reference Rate Loans, then, if such Lender so elects, by notice to the US Borrower and the US Administrative Agent, the obligation of such Lender to make additional US Dollar LIBOR Loans or US Dollar LIBOR Reference Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Regulatory Change or other circumstances ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 5.04 shall be applicable).

(c) Capital Adequacy. Without limiting the effect of the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.01 (but without duplication), the Borrowers shall pay directly to any Applicable Lender or Issuing Bank from time to time on request such amounts as such Lender or Issuing Bank may reasonably determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its parent or holding company for any increased costs which it determines are attributable to the maintenance by such Lender or Issuing Bank or its parent or holding company (or any Applicable Lending Office), pursuant to any Governmental Requirement following any Regulatory Change, of capital in respect of its US Tranche Commitments, its Canadian Allocated Commitments, its Term Commitments, its Note, its Loans or any interest held by it in any Letter of Credit, such compensation to include, without limitation, an amount equal to any reduction of the rate of return on assets or equity of such Lender or Issuing Bank or its parent or holding company (or any Applicable Lending Office) to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Bank or its parent or holding company (or any Applicable Lending Office) could have achieved but for such Governmental Requirement. Such Lender and Issuing Bank will notify the Applicable Borrower that it is entitled to compensation pursuant to this Section 5.01(c) as promptly as practicable after it determines to request such compensation, and, if such Borrower so elects, by notice to such Lender and the US Administrative Agent, the obligation of such Lender to make additional Loans shall be suspended until such circumstances cease to be in effect.

(d) Compensation Procedure. Any Lender or Issuing Bank notifying the Applicable Borrower of the incurrence of additional costs under this Section 5.01 shall in such

-73-

notice to such Borrower and the US Administrative Agent set forth in reasonable detail the basis and amount of its request for compensation no later than 180 days after the event giving rise to the claim for compensation. Determinations and allocations by each Lender and Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 5.01 of the effect of any Regulatory Change pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b), or of the effect of capital maintained pursuant to Section 5.01(c), on its costs or rate of return of maintaining Loans or its obligation to make Loans or issue Letters of Credit, or on amounts receivable by it in respect of Loans or Letters of Credit, and of the amounts required to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank under this Section 5.01, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, provided that such determinations and allocations are made on a reasonable basis. Any request for additional compensation under this Section 5.01 shall be paid by the Applicable Borrower within thirty (30) days of the receipt by such Borrower of the notice described in this Section 5.01(d) unless such Lender has failed to timely give notice to such Borrower of such claim for compensation as provided herein, in which event such Borrower shall not have any obligation to pay such claim; provided however, if the event giving rise to such claim is retroactive, then the 180 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

Section 5.02 Limitation on US Dollar LIBOR Loans. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of any US Dollar LIBO Rate for any Interest Period:

(a) the US Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive, absent manifest error) that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the applicable definition of “US Dollar LIBO Rate” in Section 1.02 are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for US Dollar LIBOR Loans or US Dollar LIBOR Reference Rate Loans as provided herein; or

(b) the US Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive, absent manifest error) that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the applicable definition of “US Dollar LIBO Rate” in Section 1.02 upon the basis of which the rate of interest for US Dollar LIBOR Loans or US Dollar LIBOR Reference Rate Loans for such Interest Period is to be determined are not sufficient to adequately cover the cost to the Lenders of making or maintaining US Dollar LIBOR Loans and US Dollar LIBOR Reference Rate Loans;

then the US Administrative Agent shall give the US Borrower prompt notice thereof, and so long as such condition remains in effect, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to make additional US Dollar LIBOR Loans or US Dollar LIBOR Reference Rate Loans.

Section 5.03 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to honor its obligation to make or maintain US Dollar LIBOR Loans or US Dollar LIBOR Reference Rate Loans hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly notify the US Borrower thereof and such Lender’s obligation to make US Dollar LIBOR Loans and US Dollar LIBOR Reference Rate Loans shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain US Dollar LIBOR Loans or US Dollar LIBOR Reference Rate Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 5.04 shall be applicable).

-74-

Section 5.04 US Dollar Base Rate Loans Pursuant to Sections 5.01, 5.02 and 5.03. If the obligation of any Lender to make US Dollar LIBOR Loans or US Dollar LIBOR Reference Rate Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Sections 5.01, 5.02 or 5.03 (“Affected Loans”), all Affected Loans which would otherwise be made by such Lender shall be made instead as US Dollar Base Rate Loans (and, if an event referred to in Section 5.01(b) or Section 5.03 has occurred and such Lender so requests by notice to the US Borrower, all Affected Loans of such Lender then outstanding shall be automatically converted into US Dollar Base Rate Loans on the date specified by the Lender in such notice) and, to the extent that Affected Loans are so made as (or converted into) US Dollar Base Rate Loans, all payments of principal which would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s Affected Loans shall be applied instead to its respective US Dollar Base Rate Loans.

Section 5.05 Compensation.

(a) Subject to Section 5.05(c), the Borrowers shall pay to each Applicable Lender within thirty (30) days of receipt of written request of such Lender (which request shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the basis for requesting such amounts and which shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis), such amount or amounts as shall compensate it for any loss, cost, expense or liability which such Lender determines are attributable to:

(i) any payment, prepayment or conversion of a US Dollar LIBOR Loan properly made by such Lender or any Borrower for any reason (including the acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 11.02) on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; or

(ii) any failure by a Borrower for any reason (including but not limited to, the failure of any of the conditions precedent specified in ARTICLE VI to be satisfied) to borrow, continue or convert a US Dollar LIBOR Loan from such Lender on the date for such Borrowing, continuation or conversion specified in the relevant notice given pursuant to Section 2.02(c).

Without limiting the effect of the preceding sentence, such compensation shall include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest component which would have accrued on the Principal Amount so paid, prepaid or converted or not borrowed for the period from the date of such payment, prepayment or conversion or failure to borrow to the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, the Interest Period for such Loan which would have commenced on the date specified for such Borrowing) at the applicable rate of interest for such Loan provided for herein over (B) the interest component of the amount such Lender would have bid in the London interbank market for US Dollar deposits of leading banks in amounts comparable to such Principal Amount and with maturities comparable to such period (as reasonably determined by such Lender).

(b) Subject to Section 5.05(c), in the event of (i) the payment of any Principal Amount of any BA Equivalent Loan or Bankers’ Acceptance other than on the applicable BA Maturity Date (including as a result of an Event of Default), (ii) the continuation of any BA Equivalent Loan other than on the applicable BA Maturity Date, (iii) the failure to

-75-

borrow any such Bankers’ Acceptance or borrow or continue any BA Equivalent Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto or (iv) the assignment of any BA Equivalent Loan or Bankers’ Acceptance other than on the applicable BA Maturity Date as a result of a request by the Canadian Borrower, then, in any such event, the Canadian Borrower shall compensate each Applicable Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Subject to Section 5.05(c), a certificate of any such Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 5.05(b) shall be delivered to the Canadian Borrower and the Administrative Agents and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Subject to Section 5.05(c), the Canadian Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, nothing in this Section 5.05(b) shall be construed as giving rise to any right of the Canadian Borrower to prepay any Bankers’ Acceptance or BA Equivalent Loan.

(c) The Applicable Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any such compensation under Section 5.05(a) or 5.05(b) if the Applicable Lender making such claim for compensation fails to provide to such Borrower the written request or certificate, as applicable, contemplated thereby no later than 180 days after the event giving rise to the claim for compensation; provided however, if the event giving rise to such claim is retroactive, then the 180 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(a) If any Lender has notified the Borrowers and the US Administrative Agent of its incurring additional costs under Section 5.01 or has required the Borrowers to make payments for Taxes under Section 4.06, then the Borrowers may, unless such Lender has notified the Borrowers and the US Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer apply, terminate, in whole but not in part, the Additional Term Loan Commitment, the Canadian Allocated Commitment, the Term Commitment, the US Tranche Commitment, and the Credit Exposure, if any, of any Lender (other than the Administrative Agents) (the “Terminated Lender”) at any time upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Terminated Lender and the US Administrative Agent (such notice referred to herein as a “Notice of Termination”).

-76-

Commitment, the US Tranche Commitment, and the Credit Exposure, if any, of the Terminated Lender being referred to herein as the “Replacement Lenders”), such that the aggregate increased and/or accepted commitments and the Credit Exposure of the Replacement Lenders under clauses (i) and (ii) above equal the Additional Term Loan Commitment, the Canadian Allocated Commitment, the Term Commitment, the US Tranche Commitment, and the Credit Exposure, if any, of the Terminated Lender.

(c) The Notice of Termination shall include the name of the Terminated Lender, the date the termination will occur (the “Lender Termination Date”), and the Replacement Lender or Replacement Lenders, if any, to which the Terminated Lender will assign its Additional Term Loan Commitment, Canadian Allocated Commitment, Term Commitment, US Tranche Commitment, and Credit Exposure, if any, and, if there will be more than one Replacement Lender, the portion of the Terminated Lender’s US Tranche Commitment, Canadian Allocated Commitment and Term Loans, if any, to be assigned to each Replacement Lender.

(d) On the Lender Termination Date (i) the Terminated Lender shall by execution and delivery of an Assignment assign its Additional Term Loan Commitment, Canadian Allocated Commitment, Term Commitment, US Tranche Commitment, and Credit Exposure, if any, to the Replacement Lender or Replacement Lenders (pro rata, if there is more than one Replacement Lender, in proportion to the portion of the Terminated Lender’s Additional Term Loan Commitment, Canadian Allocated Commitment, Term Commitment, US Tranche Commitment, and Credit Exposure, if any, to be assigned to each Replacement Lender) indicated in the Notice of Termination, (ii) the Terminated Lender shall endorse its Note(s), Bankers’ Acceptances and BA Equivalent Notes, payable without recourse, representation or warranty to the order of the Replacement Lender or Replacement Lenders (pro rata as aforesaid), (iii) the Replacement Lender or Replacement Lenders shall purchase the Note(s), Bankers’ Acceptances and BA Equivalent Notes held by the Terminated Lender (pro rata as aforesaid) at a price equal to the unpaid Principal Amount thereof plus interest and facility and other fees accrued and unpaid to the Lender Termination Date, and (iv) the Replacement Lender or Replacement Lenders will thereupon (pro rata as aforesaid) succeed to and be substituted in all respects for the Terminated Lender with like effect as if becoming a Lender pursuant to the terms of Section 13.06(b), and the Terminated Lender will have the rights and benefits of an assignor under Section 13.06(b). To the extent not in conflict, the terms of Section 13.06(b) shall supplement the provisions of this Section 5.06(d). For each Assignment made under this Section 5.06, the Replacement Lender shall pay to the Applicable Administrative Agent the processing fee provided for in Section 13.06(b). The Borrowers will be responsible for the payment of any breakage costs incurred in connection with the sale of Loans by Terminated Lenders to Replacement Lenders, as if such Loans had been prepaid and breakage costs had accrued thereto in accordance with Section 5.05.

Section 7.07 Use of Loans.

(a) Revolving Loans. The US Borrower will use the proceeds of the Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit for working capital, letters of credit and other general corporate purposes (including capital expenditures, permitted acquisitions, share repurchases, prepayment or refinancing of Debt and dividends) not in contravention of any Governmental Requirement or of any Loan Document.

(b) Initial Term Loans. The US Borrower will use the proceeds of the Initial Term Loans for repayment of all or a portion of the Existing Indebtedness, and for general corporate purposes not in contravention of any Governmental Requirement or of any Loan Document.

(c) Additional Term Loans.

(d) Margin Stock. The US Borrower is not engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of buying or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) and no part of the proceeds of any Loan hereunder will be used to buy or carry any margin stock.

Section 7.08 ERISA. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The present value of all accumulated benefit obligations under each Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed by more than $100,000 the fair market value of the assets of such Plan, and the present value of all accumulated benefit obligations of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used for

-84-

purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed by more than $100,000 the fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans, except in each case as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 7.09 Taxes.

The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of it and its Domestic Subsidiaries in respect of taxes and other governmental charges are, in the opinion of the US Borrower, adequate. No tax lien has been filed and, to the knowledge of the US Borrower, no claim is being asserted with respect to any such tax, fee or other charge which could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 7.10 Titles, Etc.

(a) Except as set out in Schedule 7.10, it and its Restricted Subsidiaries have good and marketable title to their material Properties, (i) except in cases where the failure to have said good and marketable title would not result in a Material Adverse Effect and (ii) free and clear of all Liens, except Liens permitted under Section 10.02.

(b) All leases and agreements necessary for the conduct of the business of it and its Restricted Subsidiaries are valid and subsisting and in full force and effect except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and there exists no default or event or circumstance which with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both would give rise to a default under any such lease or agreement and which default, event or circumstance would result in a Material Adverse Effect.

No written information, statement, exhibit, certificate, document or report (other than projections) furnished to the Administrative Agents and the Lenders (or any of them) by it or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement, including the Offering Memorandum, or delivered hereunder (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished) contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in the light of the circumstances in which made and with respect to it and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole. To the US Borrower’s knowledge, there is no fact peculiar to it or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries which has a Material Adverse Effect and which has not been set forth in this Agreement or the other documents, certificates and statements furnished to the Administrative Agents by or on behalf of it or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or otherwise prior to, or on, the Initial Funding Date in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby. All projections by or on behalf of the US Borrower have been prepared on the basis of reasonable assumptions and the US Borrower has no reason to believe they are incorrect or misleading in any material respect.

Neither it nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is in material default nor has any event or circumstance occurred which, but for the expiration of any applicable grace period or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a material default under any material agreement or instrument to which it or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is bound, which default would result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 8.02 No Breach.

(l) the institution of any steps by the Canadian Borrower or any Canadian Guarantor or any applicable regulatory authority to terminate a Canadian Pension Plan (wholly or in part) if, as a result of such termination, the Canadian Borrower or any Canadian Guarantor may be required to make an additional contribution to such Canadian Pension Plan or to incur an additional liability or obligation to such Canadian Pension Plan, equal to or in excess of $50,000,000 for all periods.

Section 11.02 Remedies.

(a) In the case of an Event of Default other than one referred to in clauses (f) or (g) of Section 11.01, the Applicable Administrative Agent, upon request of the Majority Lenders, shall, by notice to the Borrowers, cancel the Aggregate Revolving Commitments and/or declare the Principal Amount then outstanding of, and the accrued interest on, the Loans and all other amounts payable by the Borrowers hereunder and under the Notes (including without limitation the payment of cash collateral to secure the LC Exposure as provided in Section 2.10(b) and the BA Exposure as provided in Section 2.11(i)) to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon such amounts shall be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration or other formalities of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Applicable Borrower.

(b) In the case of the occurrence of an Event of Default referred to in clauses (f) or (g) of Section 11.01, the Aggregate Revolving Commitments and the Aggregate Term Commitments shall be automatically canceled and the Principal Amount then outstanding of, and the accrued interest on, the Loans and all other amounts payable by the Borrowers hereunder and under the Notes (including without limitation the payment of cash collateral to secure the LC Exposure as provided in Section 2.10(b) and the BA Exposure as provided in Section 2.11(i)) shall become automatically immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration or other formalities of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents, on the CAM Exchange Date, the Lenders shall automatically and without further act be deemed to have exchanged interests in the Aggregate Credit Exposure under the Tranches (including participations in the undrawn amounts of Letters of Credit) such that, in lieu of the interest of each Lender in the Credit Exposure under each Tranche in which it shall participate as of such date (including the principal, reimbursement, interest and fee obligations of each Borrower in respect of each such Tranche and such Lender’s participation in undrawn Letters of Credit), such Lender shall own an interest equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage in the Aggregate Credit Exposure under the Tranches (including the principal, reimbursement, interest and fee obligations of each Borrower in respect of each such Tranche and hold a participation in the undrawn amount of each outstanding Letter of Credit equal to its CAM Percentage thereof). Each Lender, each person acquiring a participation from any Lender as contemplated by Section

-111-

13.06(c) and each Borrower hereby consents and agrees to the CAM Exchange. Each Borrower and each Lender agrees from time to time to execute and deliver to the US Administrative Agent all such Notes and other instruments and documents as the US Administrative Agent shall reasonably request to evidence and confirm the respective interests and obligations of the Lenders after giving effect to the CAM Exchange, and each Lender agrees to surrender any Notes originally received by it in connection with its Loans hereunder to the US Administrative Agent against delivery of any Notes so executed and delivered; provided, however, that the failure of any Borrower to execute or deliver or of any Lender to accept any such Note, instrument or document shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the CAM Exchange. In the event the CAM Exchange Date shall occur, Indebtedness owed by the Borrowers under the Loan Documents denominated in Canadian Dollars (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, obligations in respect of undrawn Offshore Currency Letters of Credit) shall, automatically and with no further act required, be converted to obligations of the same Borrower denominated in US Dollars. Such conversion shall be effected based upon the exchange rate described in the definition of “US Dollar Equivalent Amount” on the CAM Exchange Date. On and after any such conversion, all amounts accruing and owed to any Lender in respect of the Indebtedness owed to it under the Loan Documents shall accrue and be payable in US Dollars at the rates otherwise applicable hereunder. Subject to Section 11.02(d), as a result of the CAM Exchange, upon and after the CAM Exchange Date, each payment or proceeds received by the Applicable Administrative Agent pursuant to or as a result of the execution of any remedy under any Loan Document in respect of the Indebtedness of the Borrowers under the Loan Documents 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 set-off, in respect of the Indebtedness under the Loan Documents shall be paid over to the US Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders in accordance herewith.

(d) Hedging Agreements and Treasury Management Agreements between the US Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries and the Administrative Agents or a Lender and/or any Lender Affiliate are secured by the Security Instruments pari passu with all other Indebtedness. As such, proceeds from the Security Instruments shall be shared pro rata on all Indebtedness. All proceeds received after the later to occur of the Term Loan Maturity Date or the Revolving Maturity Date, whether by acceleration or otherwise, shall be applied first to reimbursement of expenses provided for in the Security Instruments; next to be shared pro rata between the Hedging Agreements and Treasury Management Agreements (which form part of the Indebtedness) on the one hand and all other Indebtedness pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on the other hand. Thereafter, all such proceeds applicable to the Loans and other obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be applied, first to reimbursement of expenses and indemnities provided for in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; second to accrued interest on the Loans; third to fees; fourth pro rata to principal outstanding on the Loans and other Indebtedness and to serve as cash collateral to be held by the US Administrative Agent to secure the LC Exposure and by the Canadian Administrative Agent to secure outstanding BA Exposure; and any excess shall be paid to the US Borrower or as otherwise required by any Governmental Requirement.

(e) Acceleration and termination of all Hedging Agreements and Treasury Management Agreements involving the Administrative Agents or Lenders or the Lender

-112-

Affiliates shall be governed by the terms of the Hedging Agreements and Treasury Management Agreements, respectively.

Section 11.03 Letters of Credit.

(a) In the event that on the CAM Exchange Date any LC Exposure shall be outstanding, each US Tranche Revolving Lender shall promptly pay over to the US Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, an amount in US Dollars equal to such US Tranche Revolving Lender’s US Tranche Percentage of such LC Exposure (or, in the case of any Offshore Currency Letter of Credit, the US Dollar Equivalent of such LC Exposure) together with interest thereon from the CAM Exchange Date to the date on which such amount shall be paid to the US Administrative Agent at the rate that would be applicable at the time to a US Dollar Base Rate Loan in a Principal Amount equal to such US Lender’s US Tranche Percentage of the LC Exposure. The US Administrative Agent shall establish a separate account (each, a “Reserve Account”) or accounts for each Lender for the amounts received with respect to each such Letter of Credit pursuant to the preceding sentence. The US Administrative Agent shall have sole dominion and control over each Reserve Account, and the amounts deposited in each Reserve Account shall be held in such Reserve Account until withdrawn as provided in paragraph (b), (c), (d) or (e) below. The US Administrative Agent shall maintain records enabling it to determine the amounts paid over to it and deposited in the Reserve Accounts in respect of each Letter of Credit and the amounts on deposit in respect of each letter of Credit attributable to each Lender’s CAM Percentage. The amounts held in each Lender’s Reserve Account shall be held as a reserve against the LC Exposure, shall be the property of such Lender, shall not constitute Loans to or give rise to any claim of or against any Borrower and shall not give rise to any obligation on the part of the Borrowers to pay interest to such Lender, it being agreed that the reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit shall arise only at such times as drawings are made thereunder, as provided in Section 2.10.

(b) In the event that after the CAM Exchange Date any drawing shall be made in respect of a Letter of Credit, the US Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the applicable Issuing Bank, withdraw from the Reserve Account of each Lender any amounts, up to the amount of such Lender’s CAM Percentage of such drawing or payment, deposited in respect of such Letter of Credit and remaining on deposit and deliver such amounts to such Issuing Bank in satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the US Tranche Revolving Lenders under Section 2.10(c). In the event that any US Tranche Revolving Lender shall default on its obligation to pay over any amount to the US Administrative Agent as provided in this Section 11.03, the applicable Issuing Bank shall have a claim against such US Tranche Revolving Lender to the same extent as if such US Tranche Revolving Lender had defaulted on its obligations under Section 2.10(c), but shall have no claim against any other Lender in respect of such defaulted amount, notwithstanding the exchange of interests in the US Borrower’s reimbursement obligations pursuant to Section 11.02(c). Each other Lender shall have a claim against such defaulting US Tranche Revolving Lender for any damages sustained by it as a result of such default, including, in the event that such Letter of Credit shall expire undrawn, its CAM Percentage of the defaulted amount.

(c) In the event that after the CAM Exchange Date any Letter of Credit shall expire undrawn, the US Administrative Agent shall withdraw from the Reserve Account of each Lender

-113-

the amount remaining on deposit therein in respect of such Letter of Credit, and distribute such amount to such Lender.

(d) With the prior written approval of the US Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld), any Lender may withdraw the amount held in its Reserve Account in respect of the undrawn amount of any Letter of Credit. Any Lender making such a withdrawal shall be unconditionally obligated, in the event there shall subsequently be a drawing under such Letter of Credit, to pay to the US Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, on demand, its CAM Percentage of such drawing or payment.

(e) Pending the withdrawal by any Lender of any amounts from its Reserve Account as contemplated by the above paragraphs, the US Administrative Agent will, at the direction of such Lender and subject to such rules as the US Administrative Agent may prescribe for the avoidance of inconvenience, invest such amounts in Investments described in Section 10.03(c). Each Lender that has not withdrawn its amounts in its Reserve Account as provided in paragraph (d) above shall have the right, at intervals reasonably specified by the US Administrative Agent, to withdraw the earnings on investments so made by the US Administrative Agent with amounts in its Reserve Account and to retain such earnings for its own account.

In the event of a payment Default, the Administrative Agents shall give each Applicable Lender prompt notice of each such payment Default.

Section 12.04 Rights as a Lender. With respect to its US Tranche Commitments or Canadian Allocated Commitments and the Loans made by it and its participation in the issuance of Letters of Credit, each Applicable Administrative Agent (and any successor acting as such Applicable Administrative Agent) in its capacity as a Lender hereunder shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as the Applicable Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Applicable Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. Each Applicable Administrative Agent (and any successor acting as such Applicable Administrative Agent) and its Affiliates may (without having to account therefor to any Lender) accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with the Applicable Borrower (and any of its Affiliates) as if it were not acting as the Applicable Administrative Agent, and each Applicable Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrowers for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.

Section 12.06 Non-Reliance on the Administrative Agents and other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that it has, independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agents or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of the Borrowers and its decision to enter into this Agreement, and that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agents or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement.

-122-

Credit Facility only, the US Borrower, provided that no such consent shall be required for an assignment to an assignee that is an Affiliate (as defined in clause (a) of the definition of “Affiliate”) of such Term Loan Lender, a Related Fund or a Term Loan Lender immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment; provided, however, that (i) any such assignment shall be in the amount of at least $5,000,000 of a Tranche with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility and at least $1,000,000 with respect to the Term Loan Facility or the remaining amount of such Lender’s Credit Exposure and Commitments hereunder or such lesser amount to which the US Borrower has consented, with Related Funds treated as one assignee for purposes of determining compliance with such minimum assignment amount; (ii) the assignee or assignor shall pay to the Applicable Administrative Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 for each assignment; provided that only $3,500 shall be paid for pro rata assignments by a Lender and its Canadian Lender Affiliate and only one such fee shall be payable in connection with simultaneous assignments to or by two or more Related Funds; (iii) if such assignment is made at a time when no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any assignee of the Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender shall satisfy the Canadian residency requirements of a Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender; (iv) any assignee shall not be a competitor of the US Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; and (v) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if such assignment is made at a time when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (y) the Borrowers shall have the right to withhold all Taxes required by law to be withheld from payments made hereunder, and shall pay such Taxes to the relevant taxing authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and (z) any assignee of a Lender shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 4.06(d) (other than subparagraph (ii) thereof, if applicable), and shall not be entitled to receive any additional amounts payable pursuant to Section 4.06(a)(A) or indemnification payments for Taxes pursuant to Section 4.06(c). Any such assignment will become effective upon the execution and delivery to the US Administrative Agent of the Assignment and the consent, if required above, of the US Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the US Borrower. Promptly after receipt of an executed Assignment, the US Administrative Agent shall send to the Applicable Borrower a copy of such executed Assignment. Upon receipt of such executed Assignment, such Borrower, will, at its own expense, execute and deliver new Notes, Bankers’ Acceptances or BA Equivalent Notes to the assignor and/or assignee, as appropriate, in accordance with their respective interests as they appear. Upon the effectiveness of any assignment pursuant to this Section 13.06(b), the assignee will become a “Lender,” if not already a “Lender,” for all purposes of this Agreement and the Security Instruments. The assignor shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder to the extent of such assignment (and if the assigning Lender no longer holds any rights or obligations under this Agreement, such assigning Lender shall cease to be a “Lender” hereunder except that its rights under Sections 4.06, 5.01, 5.05 and 13.03 shall not be affected). The US Administrative Agent, acting as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Principal Amount of the Loans and LC Exposure owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register.

(c) Each Lender may transfer, grant or assign participations in all or any part of such Lender’s interests hereunder pursuant to this Section 13.06(c) to any Person that satisfies the requirements of Section 13.06(b)(iv) and either Section 13.06(b)(iii) or Section

-123-

13.06(b)(v)(z), as applicable, provided that: (i) such Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and the transferee of such participation shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder and (ii) no participant under any such participation shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of any of the Loan Documents; provided that such participation agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in clauses (a), (b) or (c) of the proviso to Section 13.04 that affects such participant, and all amounts payable by the Applicable Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation, provided that such participant shall be entitled to receive additional amounts under ARTICLE V on the same basis as if it were a Lender and be indemnified under Section 13.03 as if it were a Lender; provided that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to such provisions than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred if no participation had been transferred. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrowers shall not, at any time, be obligated to pay to any Lender and its participants, collectively, any sum in excess of the sum the Borrowers would have been obligated to pay to such Lender hereunder if such Lender had not sold any participation in its rights and obligations under this Agreement or any other Credit Document. In addition, each agreement creating any participation must include an agreement by the participant to be bound by the provisions of Section 13.15 or confidentiality provisions at least as restrictive as those of Section 13.15.

(d) The Lenders may furnish any information concerning a Borrower in the possession of the Lenders from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants); provided that such Persons agree to be bound by the provisions of Section 13.15 or confidentiality provisions at least as restrictive as those of Section 13.15.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 13.06 to the contrary, any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 13.06, no transfer or assignment of the interests or obligations of any Lender or any grant of participations therein shall be permitted if such transfer, assignment or grant would require any Borrower to file a registration statement with the SEC or to qualify the Loans under the “Blue Sky” laws of any state or similar laws in any jurisdiction in Canada.

Section 13.07 Invalidity. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained in any of the Loan Documents or the Letters of Credit, shall, for any reason, be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of the Notes, this Agreement or any Security Instrument.

Section 13.08 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument and any of the parties hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart.

-124-

Section 13.09 USA Patriot Act Notice. Each US Lender hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the US Borrower and its Subsidiaries, which information includes the name and address of the US Borrower and such Subsidiaries and other information that will allow such US Lender to identify the US Borrower and such Subsidiaries in accordance with the USA Patriot Act.

Section 13.10 Survival. The obligations of the parties under Section 4.06, ARTICLE V, and Sections 12.05 and 13.03 shall survive the repayment of the Loans and the termination of the US Tranche Commitments, Canadian Allocated Commitments and Term Commitments. To the extent that any payments on the Indebtedness under the Loan Documents or proceeds of any Collateral are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver or other Person under any bankruptcy law, common law or equitable cause, then to such extent, the Indebtedness under the Loan Documents so satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received and each Applicable Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ Liens, security interests, rights, powers and remedies under this Agreement and each Security Instrument shall continue in full force and effect. In such event, each Security Instrument shall be automatically reinstated and the Applicable Borrower shall take such action as may be reasonably requested by the Applicable Administrative Agent and the Lenders to effect such reinstatement.

Section 13.11 Restatement. This Agreement amends, restates and supersedes the Existing Universal Credit Agreement. It is the intention of the parties that all Liens and security interests securing the Existing Universal Credit Agreement continue to exist, remain valid and shall not be impaired or released hereby and shall remain in full force and effect as provided in the Security Instruments.

Section 13.12 No Oral Agreements. The Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding between the parties and supersede all other agreements and understandings between such parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. The Loan Documents represent the final agreement between the parties and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements between the parties.

Section 13.13 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction.

(a) This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Texas except to the extent that United States federal law permits any US Lender to charge interest at the rate allowed by the laws of the state where such Lender is located or applicable Canadian Law permits any Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender to charge interest at the rate allowed by the laws of the jurisdiction where such Lender is located. Ch. 346 of the Texas Finance Code (which regulates certain revolving credit loan accounts and revolving tri-party accounts) shall not apply to this Agreement or the Notes.

-125-

(b) Any legal action or proceeding with respect to the Loan Documents may be brought in the courts of the State of Texas or of the United States of America for the Southern District of Texas in each case located in Houston, Texas, and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Borrower hereby accepts for itself and (to the extent permitted under law) in respect of its Property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens, which it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such action or proceeding in such respective jurisdictions. This submission to jurisdiction is non-exclusive and does not preclude the Administrative Agents or any Lender from obtaining jurisdiction over each Borrower and Guarantor in any court otherwise having jurisdiction.

(c) Each Borrower and Guarantor irrevocably consents to the service of process of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such Borrower and Guarantor at its address specified in Section 13.02 or as updated from time to time, such service to become effective thirty (30) days after such mailing.

(d) Nothing herein shall affect the right of the Administrative Agents or any Lender or any holder of a Loan to serve process in any other manner permitted under law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Borrowers or Guarantors in any other jurisdiction.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Loan Documents, each Borrower, each Guarantor, each Issuing Bank, each Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of the other parties hereto hereby (i) irrevocably and unconditionally waive, to the fullest extent permitted under law, trial by jury in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any Security Instrument and for any counterclaim therein; (ii) irrevocably waive, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any such litigation or otherwise any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages (including loss of profits), or damages other than, or in addition to, actual damages; (iii) certify that no party hereto nor any representative thereof or counsel for any party hereto has represented, expressly or otherwise, or implied that such party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waivers and (iv) acknowledge that it has been induced to enter into this Agreement, the Security Instruments and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications contained in this Section 13.13.

Section 13.14 Interest. It is the intention of the parties hereto that each Lender shall conform strictly to usury laws applicable to it. Accordingly, if the transactions contemplated hereby would be usurious as to any Lender under laws applicable to it (including the laws of the United States of America and the State of Texas or any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable to such Lender notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement), then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Loan Documents or any agreement entered into in connection with or as security for the Loans, the Bankers’ Acceptances and the BA Equivalent Loans, it is agreed as follows: (a) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under law applicable to any Lender that is contracted for,

-126-

taken, reserved, charged or received by such Lender under any of the Loan Documents or agreements or otherwise in connection with the Loans shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and any excess shall be canceled automatically and if theretofore paid shall be credited by such Lender on the Principal Amount of the Indebtedness under the Loan Documents (or, to the extent that the Principal Amount of the Indebtedness under the Loan Documents shall have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by such Lender to the Applicable Borrower); and (b) in the event that the maturity of the Loans is accelerated by reason of an election of the holder thereof resulting from any Event of Default under this Agreement or otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest under law applicable to any Lender may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and excess interest, if any, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be canceled automatically by such Lender as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited by such Lender on the Principal Amount of the Indebtedness under the Loan Documents (or, to the extent that the Principal Amount of the Indebtedness under the Loan Documents shall have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by such Lender to the Applicable Borrower). All sums paid or agreed to be paid to any Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of sums due hereunder shall, to the extent permitted under law applicable to such Lender, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of the Loans until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of any Loans hereunder does not exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law. If at any time and from time to time (i) the amount of interest payable to any Lender on any date shall be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender pursuant to this Section 13.14 and (ii) in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to such Lender would be less than the amount of interest payable to such Lender computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender, then the amount of interest payable to such Lender in respect of such subsequent interest computation period shall continue to be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Lender until the total amount of interest payable to such Lender shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been payable to such Lender if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to this Section 13.14. To the extent that Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code is relevant for the purpose of determining the Highest Lawful Rate, such Lender elects to determine the applicable rate ceiling under such Chapter by the indicated weekly rate ceiling from time to time in effect.

Section 13.15 Confidentiality. For the purposes of this Section 13.15, “Confidential Information” means any non-public information about any Borrower or its Subsidiaries furnished by any Borrower, any Subsidiary or its Affiliates (collectively, the “Disclosing Parties”) to the Administrative Agents or any of the Lenders, including, but not limited to, any actual or pending agreement, business plans, budgets, projections, ecological data and accounting records, financial statements, or other financial data of any kind, any title documents, reports or other information relating to matters of title, any projects or plans, whether actual or prospective, and any other documents or items embodying any such Confidential Information; provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known prior to the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known other than as a result of unauthorized disclosure by the Administrative Agents or the Lenders or any Person acting on behalf thereof, (c) otherwise becomes known to the Administrative Agents or Lenders other than through disclosure by the Disclosing Parties or a party known to be subject to a confidentiality

-127-

agreement or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to the Administrative Agents and the Lenders under Section 9.01(a) that are otherwise publicly available. The Administrative Agents and the Lenders will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information delivered to such Person, provided that each such Person (a “Restricted Person”) may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) such Restricted Person’s directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, investment advisors, trustees and Affiliates, who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this Section 13.15 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 13.15, (ii) such Restricted Person’s financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms of this Section 13.15 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 13.15, (iii) any other Lender, (iv) any pledgee referred to in Section 13.06(e) or any assignee to which such Restricted Person sells or offers to sell its Loan or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 13.15 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 13.15), (v) any Person from which such Restricted Person offers to purchase any security of the Borrowers (if such Person has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 13.15 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 13.15), (vi) any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction or any self-regulatory body claiming to have authority over such Restricted Person, (vii) the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Restricted Person’s investment portfolio, or (viii) any other Person to which such delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (A) to effect compliance with any Governmental Requirement applicable to such Restricted Person, (B) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (C) in connection with any litigation to which such Restricted Person is a party or (D) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Restricted Person may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or for the protection of its rights and remedies under the Notes and this Agreement. Each Lender, by its acceptance of a Loan or a participation agreement, will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 13.15 as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by any Borrower in connection with the delivery to any Lender of information required to be delivered to such Lender under this Agreement or requested by such Lender (other than a Lender that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such Lender will enter into an agreement with any Borrower embodying the provisions of this Section 13.15.

Section 13.16 Effectiveness. This Agreement shall be effective on the Closing Date.

Section 13.17 Exculpation Provisions. Each of the parties hereto specifically agrees that it has a duty to read this Agreement and the Security Instruments and agrees that it is charged with notice and knowledge of the terms of this Agreement and the Security Instruments; that it has in fact read this Agreement and is fully informed and has full notice and knowledge of the terms, conditions and effects of this Agreement; that it has been represented by independent legal counsel of its choice throughout the negotiations preceding its execution of this Agreement and the Security Instruments; and has received the advice of its attorney in entering into this Agreement and the Security Instruments; and that it recognizes that certain of the terms of this Agreement and the Security

-128-

Instruments result in one party assuming the liability inherent in some aspects of the transaction and relieving the other party of its responsibility for such liability. Each party hereto agrees and covenants that it will not contest the validity or enforceability of any exculpatory provision of this Agreement and the Security Instruments on the basis that the party had no notice or knowledge of such provision or that the provision is not “conspicuous.”

Section 13.18 Hedging Agreements and Treasury Management Agreements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not apply to any Hedging Agreements or Treasury Management Agreements, except to the extent necessary for all Hedging Agreements or Treasury Management Agreements with Lenders and/or their Lender Affiliate to be secured by the Security Instruments on a pari passu basis with other Indebtedness and for the proceeds from the Security Instruments to be applied as set forth in Section 11.02(d) hereof.

ARTICLE XIV
GUARANTY

Section 14.01 The Guaranty.

(a) The US Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally, guarantees to each Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender and the Administrative Agents and their respective successors and permitted assigns the full and punctual payment of principal and interest on each Canadian Tranche Loan when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise (the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

(b) The US Borrower further agrees that this Guaranty constitutes an absolute, irrevocable, complete and continuing guarantee of payment, performance and compliance and not merely of collection.

(c) The obligations of the US Borrower to make any payment hereunder may be satisfied by causing the Canadian Borrower to make such payment.

(d) The US Borrower also agrees to pay any and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by any Applicable Administrative Agent or any Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender in enforcing any of their respective rights under this Guaranty, laws or otherwise) of each Applicable Administrative Agent or any Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender against the Canadian Borrower or any other Person or against such Applicable Administrative Agent or any Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender for their payments in respect of any amounts to any Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Guaranty.

(e) The US Borrower waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to the Canadian Borrower of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its guarantee and notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of the US Borrower hereunder shall not be affected by the failure of either of the Administrative Agents or any Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce or exercise

-129-

any right or remedy against the Canadian Borrower or any other Person under the provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise.

(f) To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, the obligations of the US Borrower hereunder are absolute and unconditional and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the payment in full in cash of all the Guaranteed Obligations), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and shall not be subject to any defense (other than a defense of payment or performance), set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any Note, other Loan Document or otherwise.

(g) The US Borrower waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Canadian Borrower or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Canadian Borrower, other than the final payment in full in cash of all the Guaranteed Obligations.

(h) To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any of the Canadian Tranche Revolving Lenders upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Canadian Borrower or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

Section 14.02 Subrogation. The US Borrower shall be subrogated to any of the rights (whether contractual, under applicable laws or otherwise) of either of the Administrative Agents or any Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender against the Canadian Borrower or any other Person for the payments in respect of any amounts to any Canadian Tranche Revolving Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Guaranty; provided, however, that the US Borrower shall not be entitled to enforce, or to receive any payments arising out of or based upon, such right of subrogation until all other Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full and the Canadian Allocated Aggregate Commitments terminated.
