Subject to Section 2.2(b), the obligation of the Borrowers to reimburse an L/C Issuer for all drawings under a Letter of Credit (a “Reimbursement Obligation”) shall be governed by the Application related to such Letter of Credit and this Agreement, except that reimbursement shall be paid by no later than 12:00 Noon (Cincinnati time) on the date which each drawing is to be paid if the Borrowers have been informed of such drawing by such L/C Issuer on or before 11:30 a.m. (Cincinnati time) on the date when such drawing is to be paid or, if notice of such drawing is given to the Borrowers after 11:30 a.m. (Cincinnati time) on the date when such drawing is to be paid, by the end of such day, in all instances in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s principal office in Cincinnati, Ohio or such other office as the Administrative Agent may designate in writing to the Borrowers, and the Administrative Agent shall thereafter cause to be distributed to the applicable L/C Issuer such amount(s) in like funds. With respect to any Letter of Credit denominated in U.S. Dollars, the Borrowers shall reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer in U.S. Dollars. With respect to any Canadian Letter of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars, the Borrowers shall reimburse the applicable Canadian L/C Issuer in Canadian Dollars, unless such Canadian L/C Issuer (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will require reimbursement in U.S. Dollars in an amount equal to the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of such Reimbursement Obligation. If the Borrowers do not make any such reimbursement payment on the date due and the Participating Lenders fund their participations in the manner set forth in Section 2.2(d) below, then all payments thereafter received by the Administrative Agent in discharge of any of the relevant Reimbursement Obligations shall be distributed in the currency received in accordance with Section 2.2(d) below. In addition, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and each Lender, the Borrowers agree that, notwithstanding any provision of any Application, their obligations under this Section 2.2(c) and each Application shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Applications, under all circumstances whatsoever, and irrespective of any claim or defense that the Borrowers may otherwise have against the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender, including without limitation (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document; (ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of any Loan Document; (iii) the existence of any claim, of set-off the Borrowers may have at any time against a beneficiary of a Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom a beneficiary may be acting), the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, another Loan Document, the transaction related to the Loan Document or any unrelated transaction; (iv) any statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged,
-57-


fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (v) payment by the Administrative Agent or an L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit against presentation to the Administrative Agent or an L/C Issuer of a draft or certificate that does not comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit, or (vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Administrative Agent or an L/C Issuer, any Lender or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.2(c), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder or under an Application. None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, or the L/C Issuers shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the L/C Issuer; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the L/C Issuers from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrowers that are caused by the applicable L/C Issuer’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any L/C Issuer or its employee or agent (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment), such L/C Issuer shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, an L/C Issuer may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.
    (d)    The Participating Interests. Each U.S. Lender (other than the Lender acting as U.S. L/C Issuer with respect to the applicable U.S. Letter of Credit) severally and not jointly agrees to purchase from the U.S. L/C Issuers, and each such L/C Issuer hereby agrees to sell to each such U.S. Lender (a “U.S. Participating Lender”), an undivided participating interest (a “U.S. Participating Interest”) to the extent of its U.S. Revolver Percentage in each U.S. Letter of Credit issued by, and each U.S. Reimbursement Obligation owed to, such U.S. L/C Issuer. Each Canadian Lender (other than the Lender acting as Canadian L/C Issuer with respect to the applicable Canadian Letter of Credit) severally and not jointly agrees to purchase from the Canadian L/C Issuers, and each such L/C Issuer hereby agrees to sell to each such Canadian Lender (a “Canadian Participating Lender”), an undivided participating interest (a “Canadian Participating Interest”) to the extent of its Canadian Revolver Percentage in each Canadian Letter of Credit issued by, and each Canadian Reimbursement Obligation owed to, such Canadian L/C Issuer. Upon Borrowers’ failure to pay any Reimbursement Obligation on the date and at the time required, or if an L/C Issuer is required at any time to return to the Borrowers or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other Person any portion of any payment of any
-58-


Reimbursement Obligation, each Participating Lender shall, not later than the Business Day it receives a certificate in the form of Exhibit A hereto from such L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) to such effect, if such certificate is received before 1:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time), or not later than 1:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time) the following Business Day, if such certificate is received after such time, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer an amount equal to such Participating Lender’s U.S. Revolver Percentage or Canadian Revolver Percentage, as applicable, of such unpaid or recaptured Reimbursement Obligation together with interest on such amount accrued from the date the applicable L/C Issuer made the related payment to the date of such payment by such Participating Lender at a rate per annum equal to: (i) from the date the related payment was made by the applicable L/C Issuer to the date two (2) Business Days after payment by such Participating Lender is due hereunder, (x) if such Letter of Credit is denominated in Canadian Dollars, in Canadian Dollars the Canadian L/C Issuer’s cost of funds for such day and (y) if such Letter of Credit is denominated in U.S. Dollars, in U.S. Dollars the Federal Funds Rate for each such day and (ii) from the date two (2) Business Days after the date such payment is due from such Participating Lender to the date such payment is made by such Participating Lender, (x) if such Letter of Credit is denominated in Canadian Dollars, in Canadian Dollars the Canadian Prime Rate in effect for such day and (y) if such Letter of Credit is denominated in U.S. Dollars, in U.S. Dollars the Base Rate in effect for each such day. Each such Participating Lender shall, after making its appropriate payment, be entitled to receive its Percentage of each payment received in respect of the relevant Reimbursement Obligation and of interest paid thereon, with the applicable L/C Issuer retaining its Percentage thereof as a Lender hereunder.
The several obligations of the Participating Lenders to the L/C Issuers under this Section 2.2 shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances and shall not be subject to any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment which any Participating Lender may have or has had against the Borrowers, the applicable L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such obligations shall not be affected by any Default or Event of Default or by any reduction or termination of the Commitment of any Lender, and each payment by a Participating Lender under this Section 2.2 shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.
    (e)    Indemnification. The Participating Lenders shall, severally, to the extent of their respective Percentages, indemnify each L/C Issuer (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from an L/C Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment) that an L/C Issuer may suffer or incur in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it. The obligations of the Participating Lenders under this Section 2.2(e) and all other parts of this Section 2.2 shall survive termination of this Agreement and of all Applications, Letters of Credit, and all drafts and other documents presented in connection with drawings thereunder.
    (f)    Manner of Requesting a Letter of Credit. The Borrowers’ Agent shall provide at least three Business Days’ advance written notice to the Administrative Agent (or such lesser
-59-


notice as the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer may agree in their sole discretion) of each request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, each such notice to be accompanied by a properly completed and executed Application for the requested Letter of Credit and, in the case of an extension or amendment or an increase in the amount of a Letter of Credit, a written request therefor, in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer, in each case, together with the fees called for by this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable L/C Issuer of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of each such notice (and the applicable L/C Issuer shall be entitled to assume that the conditions precedent to any such issuance, extension, amendment or increase have been satisfied unless notified to the contrary by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders) and the applicable L/C Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of the issuance of a Letter of Credit.
    (g)    Conflict with Application. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between this Agreement and the terms of any Application, the terms of this Agreement shall control. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, any Application or any other document related to issuing a Letter of Credit, any grant of a security interest pursuant to any Application shall be null and void.
    (h)    Increases in the U.S. L/C Sublimit. The U.S. L/C Sublimit may be increased pursuant to Section 2.1(b).
    (i)    L/C Issuer Reports to Administrative Agent. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer shall, in addition to its notification obligations set forth elsewhere in this Section 2.2, report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) periodic activity (for such period or recurrent periods as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent) in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancellations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) reasonably prior to the time that such L/C Issuer issues, amends, renews or extends any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension and the face amount of the Letters of Credit issued, amended, renewed or extended by such L/C Issuer outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amounts thereof shall have changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such L/C Issuer honors any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the date and amount of the drawing so honored, (iv) on any Business Day on which any Borrower fails to reimburse any drawing under a Letter of Credit as required hereunder, the date of such failure and the amount of such unreimbursed drawing, and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer.
    (j)    Designation of Additional L/C Issuer; Termination of any L/C Issuer.
(i)    The Borrowers’ Agent may, at any time and from time to time, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) designate as additional L/C Issuers one or more Lenders that agree to serve in such capacity as provided in this Section. The acceptance by a Lender of an appointment as an L/C Issuer hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement, which shall be in form and
-60-


substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, executed by the Borrowers’ Agent, the Administrative Agent and such designated Lender and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (A) such Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an L/C Issuer under this Agreement and (B) references herein to the term L/C Issuer shall be deemed to include such Lender in its capacity as an issuer of Letters of Credit hereunder.
    (ii)    The Borrowers’ Agent may terminate the appointment of any L/C Issuer as an L/C Issuer hereunder by providing a written notice thereof to such L/C Issuer, with a copy to the Administrative Agent. Any such termination shall become effective upon the earlier of (A) such L/C Issuer acknowledging receipt of such notice and (B) the 10th Business Day following the date of the delivery thereof; provided that no such termination shall become effective until and unless the L/C Obligations attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer shall have been reduced to zero. At the time any such termination shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the terminated L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.12(b). Notwithstanding the effectiveness of any such termination, the terminated L/C Issuer shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights of an L/C Issuer under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such termination, but shall not issue any additional Letters of Credit.
    (k)    Responsibility of each L/C Issuer. In determining whether to honor any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the sole responsibility of L/C Issuer shall be to examine the documents delivered under such Letter of Credit with reasonable care so as to ascertain whether such documents appear on their face to be in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit. As between the Borrowers and any L/C Issuer, the Borrowers assume all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of any Letters of Credit by, the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, none of the L/C Issuers or any of their Related Parties shall have any responsibility for (and none of their rights or powers hereunder shall be affected or impaired by) (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any Person in connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged, (ii) 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, that may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason, (iii) failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit, provided that the L/C Issuer’s determination that documents presented under the Letter of Credit complied with the terms thereof did not constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct of the L/C Issuer (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment), (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any message, by mail, facsimile or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher, (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms, (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit, (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit, or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable L/C Issuer, including any
-61-


Legal Requirement. Without limiting the foregoing, any act taken or omitted to be taken by an L/C Issuer under or in connection with the Letters of Credit or any documents or certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not give rise to any liability on the part of such L/C Issuer to the Borrowers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.2(k), the Borrowers shall retain any and all rights it may have against an L/C Issuer for any liability to the extent arising out of the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such L/C Issuer, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
    Section 2.3.    Applicable Interest Rates.
    (a)    Base Rate Loans. Each Base Rate Loan made or maintained by a Lender shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual days elapsed) in U.S. Dollars on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is advanced or created by conversion from a EurodollarTranche Rate Loan until, but excluding, the date of repayment thereof, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect, payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each month and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise).
    (b)    Canadian Prime Rate Loans. Each Canadian Prime Rate Loan made or maintained by a Canadian Lender shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual days elapsed) in Canadian Dollars on the unpaid principal amount thereof, both before and after maturity, default and judgment, from the date such Loan is advanced or created by conversion, but excluding the date of repayment thereof, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Canadian Prime Rate from time to time in effect, payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each month and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise).
    (c)    EurodollarTranche Rate Loans. Each EurodollarTranche Rate Loan made or maintained by a Lender shall bear interest in U.S. Dollars during each Interest Period it is outstanding (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is advanced, continued or created by conversion from a Base Rate Loan until, but excluding, the date of repayment thereof, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Tranche Rate or Daily Simple SOFR, as applicable, plus the Applicable Margin plus the Tranche Rate Adjustmednt LIBOR applicable for such Interest Period, payable in arrears on the last day of the Interest Period and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise).
    (d)    Canadian CDOR Loans.

-62-


    (e)    Default Rate. While any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, the Borrowers shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the principal amount of all Loans owing by it at a rate per annum equal to:
    (i)    for any Base Rate Loan and any Swing Loan bearing interest at the Base Rate, the sum of 2.0% per annum plus the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect;
    (ii)    for any Canadian Prime Rate Loan and any Canadian Swing Loan bearing interest at the Canadian Prime Rate, the sum of 2.0% plus the Applicable Margin plus the Canadian Prime Rate from time to time in effect; and
    (iii)    for any EurodollarTranche Rate Loan and Canadian CDOR Loan, and any U.S. Swing Loan and any Canadian Swing Loan bearing interest at the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate, the sum of 2.0% per annum plus the rate of interest in effect thereon at the time of such Event of Default until the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and, thereafter, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2.0% plus either (x) for Loans in U.S. Dollars, the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect, or (y) for Loans in Canadian Dollars, the Applicable Margin plus the Canadian Prime Rate from time to time in effect, as applicable.
provided, however, that in the absence of acceleration (in which case, for the sake of clarity, any increase in interest rates pursuant to this Section and any conversion of Loans into Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall be automatic), any increase in interest rates pursuant to this Section and any conversion of Loans into Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall be made at the election of the Administrative Agent, acting at the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders, with written notice to the Borrowers. While any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, accrued interest shall be paid on demand of the Administrative Agent at the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders.
    (f)    Rate Determinations. The Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations hereunder, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive and binding except in the case of manifest error.
    (g)    Interest Act (Canada). For the purpose of complying with the Interest Act (Canada), it is expressly stated that, (i) where interest is calculated pursuant hereto at a rate based upon a 360-day period (for the purposes of this Section the “first rate”), the yearly rate or percentage of interest to which the first rate is equivalent is the first rate multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 360; (ii) where interest is calculated pursuant hereto at a rate based on a 365 or 366 day period (for the purposes of this Section the “second rate”), the yearly rate or percentage of interest to which the second rate is equivalent is the second rate multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 365 or 366 (as may be applicable); and (iii) the parties hereto acknowledge that there is a material distinction between the nominal and effective rates of interest and that they are capable of making the calculations necessary to
-63-


compare such rates and that the calculations herein are to be made using the nominal rate method and not on any basis that gives effect to the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest.
    (h)    Tranche Rate Conforming Changes. In connection with the use or administration of the Tranche Rate, the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Borrower) will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of the Tranche Rate.
    Section 2.4.    Manner of Borrowing Loans and Designating Applicable Interest Rates.
    (a)    Notice to the Administrative Agent. The Borrowers’ Agent shall give notice to the Administrative Agent by no later than 12:00 Noon (Cincinnati time): (i) at least 3 Business Days before the date on which the Borrowers’ Agent requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of EurodollarTranche Rate Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans; (ii) at least 2 Business Days before the date on which the Borrowers’ Agent requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans; and (iii) on the date the Borrowers’ Agent requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. The Loans included in each Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the type of rate specified in such notice; provided that, the Borrowers’ Agent and the Administrative Agent may agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans on the Closing Date, (x) LIBOR shall be equal to the LIBOR Index Rate for a period of one month and (y) the initial Interest Period shall commence on the Closing Date and end on October 31, 2018. Thereafter, the Borrowers’ Agent may from time to time elect to change or continue the type of interest rate borne by each Borrowing or, subject to Section 2.5, a portion thereof, as follows: (i) if such Borrowing is of EurodollarTranche Rate Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrowers’ Agent may continue part or all of such Borrowing as EurodollarTranche Rate Loans or convert part or all of such Borrowing into Base Rate Loans, or (ii) if such Borrowing is of Base Rate Loans, on any Business Day, the Borrowers may convert all or part of such Borrowing into EurodollarTranche Rate Loans for an Interest Period or Interest Periods specified by the Borrowers’ Agent, (iii) if such Borrowing is of Canadian Prime Rate Loans, on any Business Day, the Borrowers may convert all or part of such Borrowing into Canadian CDOR Loans for an Interest Period or Interest Periods specified by the Borrowers’ Agent, or (iv) if such Borrowing is of Canadian CDOR Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrowers’ Agent may continue part or all of such Borrowing as Canadian CDOR Loans or convert part or all of such Borrowing into Canadian Prime Rate Loans. The Borrowers’ Agent shall give all such notices requesting the advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing to the Administrative Agent by email (with a pdf copy of the applicable fully-executed notice), telephone, or telecopy (which notice shall be irrevocable once given and, if by telephone, shall be promptly confirmed in writing in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (Notice of Borrowing) or Exhibit C (Notice of Continuation/Conversion), as applicable, or in such other form acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Notice of (i) the continuation of a Borrowing of EurodollarTranche Rate
-64-


Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans for an additional Interest Period, (ii) the conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans into EurodollarTranche Rate Loans, or (iii) the conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans into Canadian CDOR Loans must be given, in each instance, by no later than 12:00 Noon (Cincinnati time) at least 3 Business Days before the date of the requested continuation or conversion. Notice of (i) the conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of Canadian CDOR Loans on any day other than the last day of its Interest Period into Canadian Prime Rate Loans, and (ii) the conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of EurodollarTranche Rate Loans on any day other than the last day of its Interest Period into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans must be given, in each instance, by no later than 12:00 Noon (Cincinnati time) at least 2 Business Days before the date of the requested conversion. All notices concerning the advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing shall specify the date of the requested advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of the requested Borrowing to be advanced, continued or converted, the type of Loans to comprise such new, continued or converted Borrowing and, if such Borrowing is to be comprised of EurodollarTranche Rate Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto. The Borrowers agree that the Administrative Agent may rely on any such email, telephonic or telecopy notice given by any person the Administrative Agent in good faith believes is an Authorized Representative without the necessity of independent investigation (the Borrowers hereby indemnify the Administrative Agent from any liability or loss ensuing from such reliance) and, in the event any such notice by telephone conflicts with any written confirmation, such telephonic notice shall govern if the Administrative Agent has acted in reliance thereon.
    (b)    Notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic or telecopy, or e-mail notice to each Lender of any notice from the Borrowers’ Agent received pursuant to Section 2.4(a) above and, if such notice requests the Lenders to make EurodollarTranche Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Borrowers’ Agent and each Lender of the interest rate applicable thereto promptly after the Administrative Agent has made such determination and, if such Borrowing is denominated in Canadian Dollars, of the Original Dollar Amount thereof.
    (c)    Borrower’s Failure to Notify; Automatic Continuations and Conversions; Automatic Extensions of Revolving Loans if Reimbursement Obligations Not Repaid. If the Borrowers’ Agent fails to give proper notice of the continuation or conversion of any outstanding Borrowing of EurodollarTranche Rate Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans before the last day of its then current Interest Period within the period required by Section 2.4(a) or, whether or not such notice has been given, one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 3.1 for the continuation or conversion of a Borrowing of EurodollarTranche Rate Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans, as applicable, would not be satisfied, and such Borrowing is not prepaid in accordance with Section 2.7(a), any such Borrowing of EurodollarTranche Rate Loans shall automatically be converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and any such Borrowing of Canadian CDOR Loans shall automatically be converted into a Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as applicable. In the event the Borrowers’ Agent fails to give notice pursuant to Section 2.4(a) of a Borrowing equal to the amount of a Reimbursement Obligation and has not notified the Administrative Agent by 1:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time) on the day such Reimbursement Obligation becomes due that it intends to repay such Reimbursement Obligation through funds not borrowed
-65-


under this Agreement, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested (i) with respect to Reimbursement Obligations arising from any U.S. Letter of Credit, a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans under the U.S. Revolving Credit (or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, under the U.S. Swing Line) or (ii) with respect to Reimbursement Obligations in Canadian Dollars arising from any Canadian Letter of Credit, a Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans under the Canadian Revolving Credit and with respect to Reimbursement Obligations in U.S. Dollars arising from any Canadian Letter of Credit, a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans under the Canadian Revolving Credit (or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, in each such event, under the Canadian Swing Line), in any event on such day in the amount of the Reimbursement Obligation then due, which such Borrowing, if otherwise available hereunder, shall be applied to pay the Reimbursement Obligation then due.
    (d)    Disbursement of Loans. Not later than 2:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time) on the date of any requested advance of a new Borrowing, subject to Section 2, each Lender shall make available its Loan comprising part of such Borrowing in funds immediately available (i) in the case of Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, at the principal office of the Administrative Agent in Cincinnati, Ohio, and (ii) in the case of Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, at the principal office of the Administrative Agent in Cincinnati, Ohio in such funds as are then customary for the settlement of international transactions in such currency and no later than such local time as is necessary for such funds to be received and transferred to the Borrowers for same day value on the date of the Borrowing. The Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of each new Borrowing available to the Borrowers at the Administrative Agent’s principal office in Cincinnati, Ohio.
    (e)    Administrative Agent Reliance on Lender Funding. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, by 1:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time) on) the date on which such Lender is scheduled to make available to the Administrative Agent of its share of a Borrowing (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) that such Lender does not intend to make such share available, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with Section 2.4(d) when due and the Administrative Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may (but shall not be required to) make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount in the applicable currency (each such advance, a “Disproportionate Advance”) and, if any Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall, on demand, make available to the Administrative Agent the Disproportionate Advance attributable to such Lender together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such Disproportionate Advance was made available to the Borrowers and ending on (but excluding) the date such Lender makes available such Disproportionate Advance to the Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to: (i) from the date the Disproportionate Advance was made by the Administrative Agent to the date 2 Business Days after payment by such Lender is due hereunder, (x) with respect to a Loan denominated in U.S. Dollars, the greater of, for each such day, (1) the Federal Funds Rate and (2) an overnight rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, or (y) with respect to a Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars, the CDOR Rate for each such day, as determined by the Administrative Agent, plus any standard administrative or processing fees charged by the
-66-


Administrative Agent in connection with such Lender’s non-payment and (ii) from the date 2 Business Days after the date such share of the applicable Borrowing is due from such Lender to the date such payment is made by such Lender, with respect to a Loan denominated in U.S. Dollars, the Base Rate in effect for each such day and, with respect to a Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars, the Canadian Prime Rate in effect on such day. If such amount is not received from such Lender by the Administrative Agent immediately upon demand, the Borrowers will, promptly following written demand from the Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the proceeds of the Loan attributable to such Disproportionate Advance with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan, but without such payment being considered a payment or prepayment of a Loan under Section 8.1 so that the Borrowers will have no liability under such Section with respect to such payment. If the Borrowers and such Lender shall pay interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrowers the amount of such interest paid by the Borrowers for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrowers under this Section shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrowers may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.
    Section 2.5.    Minimum Borrowing Amounts; Maximum EurodollarTranche Rate Loans. Each Borrowing of Base Rate Loans advanced under the U.S. Revolving Credit or the Canadian Revolving Credit shall be in an amount not less than U.S. $300,000. Each Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans advanced under the Canadian Revolving Credit shall be in an amount not less than Cdn. $300,000. Each Borrowing of EurodollarTranche Rate Loans advanced, continued or converted under the U.S. Revolving Credit or the Canadian Revolving Credit shall be in an amount equal to U.S. $1,000,000 or such greater amount that is an integral multiple of U.S. $100,000. Each Borrowing of Canadian CDOR Loans advanced, continued or converted under the Canadian Revolving Credit shall be in an amount equal to Cdn. $1,000,000 or such greater amount that is an integral multiple of Cdn. $100,000. Without the Administrative Agent’s consent, there shall not be more than seven (7) Borrowings of EurodollarTranche Rate Loans and Canadian CDOR Loans, in the aggregate, outstanding at any one time.
    Section 2.6.    Maturity of Loans. Each Revolving Loan and each Swing Loan, both for principal and interest not sooner paid, shall mature and become due and payable by the Borrowers on the Termination Date.
    Section 2.7.    Prepayments.
    (a)    Voluntary. The Borrowers may prepay without premium or penalty (except as set forth in Section 8.1 below) and in whole or in part any Borrowing of (i) EurodollarTranche Rate Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans at any time upon 3 Business Days prior notice by the Borrowers’ Agent to the Administrative Agent or, (ii) in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans, or Swing Loans bearing interest at the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate, notice delivered by the Borrowers’ Agent to the Administrative Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (Cincinnati time) on the date of prepayment (or, in any case, such shorter time period then agreed to by the Administrative Agent), such prepayment to be made by the payment of the
-67-


principal amount to be prepaid and, in the case of any EurodollarTranche Rate Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans, accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for prepayment plus any amounts due the Lenders under Section 8.1; provided, however, the Borrowers may not partially repay a Borrowing (i) if such Borrowing is of Base Rate Loans (other than a Swing Loan), in a principal amount less than U.S. $500,000, (ii) if such Borrowing is of EurodollarTranche Rate Loans, in a principal amount less than U.S. $1,000,000, (iii) if such Borrowing is of Canadian Prime Rate Loans (other than a Swing Loan), in an amount not less than Cdn. $500,000, (iv) if such Borrowing is of Canadian CDOR Loans, in a principal amount less than Cdn. $1,000,000 and (v) in each case, unless it is in an amount such that the minimum amount required for a Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.5 remains outstanding. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise each Lender of any notice of prepayment by the Borrowers.
    (b)    Mandatory.
    (i)    If any Borrower or any Subsidiary shall at any time or from time to time make or agree to make a Disposition (other than Dispositions permitted under Section 6.13(r)) or shall suffer an Event of Loss resulting in Net Cash Proceeds in excess of U.S. $1,000,000 individually or on a cumulative basis in any fiscal year of the Borrowers, then (x) the Borrowers shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such proposed Disposition or Event of Loss (including the amount of the estimated Net Cash Proceeds to be received by such Borrower or such Subsidiary in respect thereof) and (y) promptly upon receipt by such Borrower or such Subsidiary of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Disposition or such Event of Loss, the Borrowers shall prepay the Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the amount of all such Net Cash Proceeds in excess of U.S. $1,000,000 individually or on a cumulative basis in any fiscal year of the Borrowers; provided that in the case of each Disposition and Event of Loss, if the Borrowers state in its notice of such event that the applicable Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary intends to invest or reinvest, as applicable, within 365 days of the applicable Disposition or receipt of Net Cash Proceeds from an Event of Loss, the Net Cash Proceeds thereof in similar like-kind assets, then so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, the Borrowers shall not be required to make a mandatory prepayment under this Section in respect of such Net Cash Proceeds to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds are actually invested or reinvested as described in the Borrowers’ notice within such 365-day period. Promptly after the end of such 365-day period, the Borrowers shall notify the Administrative Agent whether such Borrower or such Subsidiary has invested or reinvested such Net Cash Proceeds as described in the Borrowers’ notice, and to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds have not been so invested or reinvested, the Borrowers shall promptly prepay the Obligations in the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds in excess of U.S. $1,000,000 individually or on a cumulative basis in any fiscal year of the Borrowers not so invested or reinvested. The amount of each such prepayment shall be applied then to the U.S. Revolving Loans and the Canadian Revolving Loans on a ratable basis (in accordance with the outstanding principal amounts thereof) until all outstanding Revolving Loans are paid in full and then to the U.S. Swing Loans and the Canadian Swing Loans on a ratable basis (in accordance with the outstanding principal amounts thereof).
-68-


    (ii)    If after the Restatement Effective Date any Borrower or any Subsidiary shall issue any new equity securities (other than equity securities issued to any director, manager, or employee as part of an employee incentive program, equity securities issued to the seller of an Acquired Business in connection with an Acquisition permitted by the terms hereof, if any, and, so long as no Event of Default exists at the time of any such issue, any Designated Canadian Equity Issuances, if any) or incur or assume any Indebtedness other than that permitted by Section 6.11, the Borrowers shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the estimated Net Cash Proceeds of such issuance, incurrence or assumption to be received by or for the account of such Borrower or such Subsidiary in respect thereof. Promptly upon receipt by such Borrower or such Subsidiary of Net Cash Proceeds of such issuance, incurrence or assumption the Borrowers shall prepay the Obligations in the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds. The amount of each such prepayment shall be applied first to the U.S. Revolving Loans and Canadian Revolving Loans on a ratable basis (in accordance with the outstanding principal amounts thereof) until all outstanding Revolving Loans are paid in full and then to the U.S. Swing Loans and Canadian Swing Loans on a ratable basis (in accordance with the outstanding principal amounts thereof). The Borrowers acknowledge that their performance hereunder shall not limit the rights and remedies of the Lenders for any breach of Section 6.11 or any other terms of this Agreement.
    (iii)    The Borrowers shall, on each date the U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments are reduced pursuant to Section 2.9, prepay the U.S. Revolving Loans and, if necessary, U.S. Swing Loans and, if necessary, in accordance with Section 4.5, Cash Collateralize 103% of the then-outstanding U.S. L/C Obligations by the amount, if any, necessary to reduce the sum of the aggregate principal amount of U.S. Revolving Loans, U.S. Swing Loans and U.S. L/C Obligations then outstanding to the amount to which the Commitments have been so reduced; and the Borrowers shall, on each date the Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments are reduced pursuant to Section 2.9, prepay the Canadian Revolving Loans and, if necessary, Canadian Swing Loans and, if necessary, in accordance with Section 4.5, Cash Collateralize 103% of the then-outstanding Canadian L/C Obligations by the amount, if any, necessary to reduce the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Canadian Revolving Loans, Canadian Swing Loans and Canadian L/C Obligations then outstanding to the amount to which the Commitments have been so reduced; and
    (iv)    Unless the Borrowers otherwise direct, prepayments of Loans under this Section 2.7(b) shall be applied first to Borrowings of Base Rate Loans and Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as the case may be, until payment in full thereof with any balance applied to Borrowings of EurodollarTranche Rate Loans and Canadian CDOR Loans, as the case may be, in the order in which their Interest Periods expire. Each prepayment of Loans under this Section 2.7(b) shall be made by the payment of the principal amount to be prepaid and, in the case of any EurodollarTranche Rate Loans or Canadian CDOR Loans, accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment together with any amounts due the Lenders under Section 8.1. Each prefunding of L/C Obligations shall be made in accordance with Section 4.5.
-69-


    (c)    The Administrative Agent will promptly advise each Lender of any notice of prepayment it receives from the Borrowers, and in the case of any partial prepayment, such prepayment shall be applied to the remaining amortization payments on the relevant Loans in the inverse order of maturity.
    Section 2.8.    Place and Application of Payments.
    (a)    General Terms. All payments of principal of and interest on the Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations, and of all other Obligations payable by the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall be made by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent (i) in the case of Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars by no later than 1:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time) on the due date thereof at the office of the Administrative Agent in Cincinnati, Ohio (or such other location as the Administrative Agent may designate to the Borrowers in writing) for the benefit of the Lender or Lenders entitled thereto, and (ii) in the case of Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, to the Administrative Agent by no later than 1:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time) at the place of payment to such office as the Administrative Agent has previously specified in a notice to the Borrowers, for the benefit of the Lender or Lenders entitled thereto. Any payments received after such time shall be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent on the next Business Day. All such payments shall be made in U.S. Dollars or Canadian Dollars, as applicable, in immediately available funds at the place of payment, in each case without set-off or counterclaim. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest on Loans and on Reimbursement Obligations in which the Lenders have purchased Participating Interests ratably to the Lenders and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
    (b)    Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or an L/C Issuer hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to: (i) from the date the distribution was made to the date 2 Business Days after payment by such Lender is due hereunder, (x) if such scheduled payment was to be made in U.S. Dollars, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (y) if such scheduled payment was to be made in Canadian Dollars, the CDOR Rate for each such day and (ii) from the date 2 Business Days after the date such payment is due from such Lender to the date such payment is made by such Lender, (x) if such scheduled payment was to be made in U.S. Dollars, the Base Rate in effect for each such day and (y) if such scheduled
-70-


payment was to be made in Canadian Dollars, the Canadian Prime Rate in effect for each such day.
    (c)    Application of Collateral Proceeds Before Default. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, subject to Section 2.7(b), all payments and collections received in respect of the Obligations and all proceeds of Collateral shall (subject to the other terms of this Agreement) be applied by the Administrative Agent against the outstanding Obligations as follows:
    (i)    first, to any outstanding fees, charges, and expenses then due to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders;
    (ii)    second, to outstanding interest charges then due in respect of the Obligations;
    (iii)    third, to the outstanding principal balance of the U.S. Swing Loans and to the outstanding principal balance of the Canadian Swing Loans on a ratable basis (in accordance with the outstanding principal amounts thereof) until all outstanding Swing Loans are paid in full;
    (iv)    fourth, to the outstanding principal balance of the U.S. Revolving Loans and U.S. Reimbursement Obligations in respect of amounts drawn under U.S. Letters of Credit and to the outstanding principal balance of the Canadian Revolving Loans and Canadian Reimbursement Obligations in respect of amounts drawn under the Canadian Letters of Credit on a ratable basis (in accordance with the outstanding principal amounts thereof) until all outstanding Revolving Loans and unpaid Reimbursement Obligations are paid in full; and
    (v)    finally, to be made available to the Borrowers or whoever else may be lawfully entitled thereto.
    (d)    Application of Collateral Proceeds after Default. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (x) pursuant to the exercise of remedies under Sections 7.2 and 7.3 or (y) after written instruction by the Required Lenders after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, all payments and collections received in respect of the Obligations and all proceeds of the Collateral received, in each instance, by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders shall be remitted to the Administrative Agent and distributed as follows:
        (i)    first, to the payment of any outstanding costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, and any security trustee therefor, in monitoring, verifying, protecting, preserving or enforcing the Liens on the Collateral, in protecting, preserving or enforcing rights under the Loan Documents, which the Borrowers have agreed to pay the Administrative Agent under Section 10.12 (such funds to be retained by the Administrative Agent for its own account unless it has previously been reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Lenders, in which event such amounts shall be remitted to
-71-


the Lenders to reimburse them for payments theretofore made to the Administrative Agent);
    (ii)    second, to the payment of principal and interest on Swing Loans until paid in full;
    (iii)    third, to the payment of any outstanding interest (other than on Swing Loans) and fees due under the Loan Documents to be allocated pro rata in accordance with the aggregate unpaid amounts owing to each holder thereof;
    (iv)    fourth, to the payment of principal on the U.S. Loans (other than U.S. Swing Loans) and Canadian Loans (other than Canadian Swing Loans) on a ratable basis (in accordance with the outstanding principal amounts thereof), unpaid U.S. Reimbursement Obligations and Canadian Reimbursement Obligations on a ratable basis (in accordance with the outstanding principal amounts thereof), together with Cash Collateral for any outstanding U.S. L/C Obligations and Canadian L/C Obligations on a ratable basis pursuant to Section 7.4 (until the Administrative Agent is holding Cash Collateral equal to 103% of the then outstanding amount of all such L/C Obligations), Bank Product Liability, and Hedging Liability, the aggregate amount paid to, or held as collateral security for, the Lenders and, in the case of Hedging Liability, their Affiliates to be allocated pro rata in accordance with the aggregate unpaid amounts owing to each holder thereof;
    (v)    fifth, to the payment of all other unpaid Obligations and all other indebtedness, obligations, and liabilities of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries secured by the Collateral Documents to be allocated pro rata in accordance with the aggregate unpaid amounts owing to each holder thereof; and
    (vi)    sixth, to the Borrowers or whoever else may be lawfully entitled thereto.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, no proceeds of any Collateral or payment made under or in respect of any Guaranty received from any person who is not an “eligible contract participant” as defined in the Commodities Exchange Act shall be applied to the payment of any Hedging Liability, but appropriate adjustments shall be made with respect to payments from the Borrowers and the Guarantors to preserve the allocation to Hedging Liability otherwise set forth in this Section.
    Section 2.9.    Voluntary Commitment Terminations. The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time, upon 3 Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period of time agreed to by the Administrative Agent), to terminate the Commitments in whole or in part, any partial termination to be (a) in an amount not less than U.S. $1,000,000 and (b) allocated ratably among the Lenders in proportion to their respective Percentages, provided that the U.S. Commitments may not be reduced to an amount less than the sum of the aggregate principal amount of U.S. Revolving Loans, U.S. Swing Loans and U.S. L/C Obligations then outstanding and the Canadian Commitments may not be reduced to an amount less than the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Canadian Revolving Loans,
-72-


Canadian Swing Loans and Canadian L/C Obligations then outstanding. Any termination of the U.S. Commitments below the U.S. L/C Sublimit then in effect shall reduce the U.S. L/C Sublimit by a like amount. Any termination of the U.S. Commitments below the U.S. Swing Line Sublimit then in effect shall reduce the U.S. Swing Line Sublimit by a like amount. Any termination of the Canadian Commitments below the Canadian L/C Sublimit then in effect shall reduce the Canadian L/C Sublimit by a like amount. Any termination of the Canadian Commitments below the Canadian Swing Line Sublimit then in effect shall reduce the Canadian Swing Line Sublimit by a like amount. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to each Lender of any such termination of the Commitments. Any termination of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.9 may not be reinstated.
    Section 2.10.    Swing Loans.
    (a)    Generally. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, as part of the U.S. Revolving Credit, the Administrative Agent agrees to make loans (a) in U.S. Dollars to the Borrowers under the U.S. Swing Line (individually a “U.S. Swing Loan” and collectively the “U.S. Swing Loans”) which shall not in the aggregate at any time outstanding exceed the U.S. Swing Line Sublimit and (b) in U.S. Dollars or Canadian Dollars to the Borrowers under the Canadian Swing Line (individually a “Canadian Swing Loan” and collectively the “Canadian Swing Loans”; the Canadian Swing Loans, together with the U.S. Swing Loans, collectively, the “Swing Loans”) with a U.S. Dollar Equivalent which shall not in the aggregate at any time outstanding exceed the Canadian Swing Line Sublimit; provided, however, (x) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of U.S. Revolving Loans, U.S. Swing Loans and U.S. L/C Obligations at any time outstanding shall not exceed the sum of all U.S. Revolving Credit Commitments in effect at such time; and (y) the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Canadian Revolving Loans, Canadian Swing Loans and Canadian L/C Obligations at any time outstanding shall not exceed the sum of all Canadian Revolving Credit Commitments in effect at such time. The Swing Loans may be availed of by the Borrowers from time to time and borrowings thereunder may be repaid and used again during the period ending on the Termination Date; provided that each Swing Loan matures and is due and payable on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto. Each Swing Loan advanced in U.S. Dollars shall be in a minimum amount of U.S. $250,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of U.S. $100,000. Each Swing Loan advanced in Canadian Dollars shall be in a minimum amount of Cdn. $250,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of Cdn. $100,000. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to make any Swing Loan if any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder unless the Borrowers or such Defaulting Lender has provided Cash Collateral in compliance with Section 4.5 sufficient to eliminate the Swing Line Lender’s risk with respect to such Defaulting Lender.
    (b)    Interest on Swing Loans. Each Swing Loan advanced in U.S. Dollars shall bear interest in U. S. Dollars until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to, at the option of the Borrowers, (i) the sum of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans under the U.S. Revolving Credit or the Canadian Revolving Credit as from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days elapsed), or (ii) the Swing Loan Lender’s Quoted Rate therefore
-73-


(computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed). Each Swing Loan advanced in Canadian Dollars shall bear interest in Canadian Dollars until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to, at the option of the Borrowers, (i) the sum of the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Canadian Prime Rate Loans under the Canadian Revolving Credit as from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days elapsed), or (ii) the Swing Loan Lender’s Quoted Rate therefore (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed). Interest on each Swing Loan shall be due and payable prior to such maturity on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto.
    (c)    Requests for Swing Loans. The Borrowers’ Agent shall give the Swing Line Lender prior notice (which may be written or oral), no later than 1:00 p.m. (Cincinnati time) on the date upon which the Borrowers’ Agent requests that any Swing Loan be made, of the amount and date of such Swing Loan, the Interest Period requested therefore, and, with respect to Canadian Swing Loans, the requested currency of Canadian Dollars or U.S. Dollars. Within 30 minutes after receiving such notice, the Swing Line Lender shall in its discretion quote an interest rate to the Borrowers’ Agent at which the Swing Line Lender would be willing to make such Swing Loan available to the Borrowers for the Interest Period so requested (the rate so quoted for a given Interest Period being herein referred to as “Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate”). The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the interest rate quote is given for immediate and irrevocable acceptance. If the Borrowers do not so immediately accept the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate for the full amount requested by the Borrowers’ Agent for such Swing Loan, the Swing Line Lender’s Quoted Rate shall be deemed immediately withdrawn and any such Swing Loan advanced in U.S. Dollars shall bear interest at the rate per annum determined by adding the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans to the Base Rate as from time to time in effect, and any such Canadian Swing Loan advanced in Canadian Dollars shall bear interest at the rate per annum determined by adding the Applicable Margin for Canadian Prime Rate Loans to the Canadian Prime Rate as from time to time in effect. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the proceeds of any such Swing Loan advanced in U.S. Dollars shall be made available to the Borrowers on the date so requested at the offices of the Swing Line Lender in Cincinnati, Ohio, and the proceeds of such Canadian Swing Loan advanced in Canadian Dollars shall be made available to the Borrowers on the date so requested at the offices of the Swing Line Lender in Cincinnati, Ohio. Anything contained in the foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding (i) the obligation of the Swing Line Lender to make Swing Loans shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (ii) the Swing Line Lender shall not be obligated to make more than one Swing Loan during any one day.
    (d)    Refunding of Swing Loans. In its sole and absolute discretion, the Administrative Agent may at any time, at the direction of the Swing Line Lender, on behalf of the Borrowers, (which the Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to act on their behalf for such purpose) and with notice to the Borrowers, request (i) each U.S. Lender to make a U.S. Revolving Loan in the form of a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s U.S. Revolver Percentage of the amount of the U.S. Swing Loans outstanding on the date such notice is given, and (ii) each Canadian Lender to make a Canadian Revolving Loan in the form of (A) a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Canadian Lender’s Canadian Revolver Percentage of the amount of the Canadian Swing Loans outstanding in U.S. Dollars on the date
-74-


such notice is given and (B) a Canadian Prime Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Canadian Lender’s Canadian Revolver Percentage of the amount of the Canadian Swing Loans outstanding in Canadian Dollars on the date such notice is given. Unless an Event of Default described in Section 7.1(j) or 7.1(k) exists with respect to any Borrower, regardless of the existence of any other Event of Default, each Lender shall make the proceeds of its requested Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, with respect to Swing Loans in U.S. Dollars or Canadian Dollars, at the Administrative Agent’s principal office in Cincinnati, Ohio before 12:00 Noon (Cincinnati time) two Business Days following the day such notice is given. The proceeds of such Borrowing of U.S. Revolving Loans shall be immediately applied to repay the outstanding U.S. Swing Loans, and the proceeds of such Borrowing of Canadian Revolving Loans shall be immediately applied to repay the outstanding Canadian Swing Loans
    (e)    Participations. If any Lender refuses or otherwise fails to make a Revolving Loan when requested by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.10(d) above (because an Event of Default described in Section 7.1(j) or 7.1(k) exists with respect to the Borrowers or otherwise), such Lender will, by the time and in the manner such Revolving Loan was to have been funded to the Administrative Agent, purchase from the Administrative Agent an undivided participating interest in the outstanding Swing Loans in an amount equal to its Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of Swing Loans that were to have been repaid with such Revolving Loans; provided that the foregoing purchases shall be deemed made hereunder without any further action by such Lender or the Administrative Agent. Each Lender that so purchases a participation in a Swing Loan shall thereafter be entitled to receive its Percentage of each payment of principal received on the Swing Loan and of interest received thereon accruing from the date such Lender funded to the Administrative Agent its participation in such Loan. The several obligations of the Lenders under this Section shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances whatsoever and shall not be subject to any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment which any Lender may have or have had against any Borrower, any other Lender or any other Person whatever. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such obligations shall not be affected by any Default or Event of Default or by any reduction or termination of the Commitment of any Lender, and each payment made by a Lender under this Section shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.
    (f)    Increases in the U.S. Swing Line Sublimit. The U.S. Swing Line Sublimit may be increased pursuant to Section 2.1(b).
    Section 2.11.    Evidence of Indebtedness. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.
    (b)    The Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the type thereof and, with respect to EurodollarTranche Rate Loans, Canadian CDOR Loans and Swing Loans, the Interest Period with respect thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from
-75-


the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrowers and each Lender’s share thereof.
    (c)    The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) and (b) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms.

If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided (other than Permitted Liens), or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than required hereunder, including any applicable Fronting Exposure, the Borrowers or the relevant Lender, if applicable, will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.
    (b)    Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 4.5 or Section 2.2(b), Section 2.7(b), Section 7.4 or Section 8.7, or any other Section hereof in respect of Letters of Credit or Swing Loans, shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific Reimbursement Obligations, Swing Loans, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.
    (c)    Release. (i) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure shall be released promptly following the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii), if such Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) is not provided in connection with a Defaulting Lender, Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) shall be released promptly after (A) the Borrowers shall have made payment of all such Obligations giving rise to the required Cash Collateral, (B) all
-87-


relevant preference or other disgorgement periods relating to the receipt of such payments have passed, and (C) no Letters of Credit, Commitments, Loans or other Obligations remain outstanding hereunder, or (iii) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) shall be released promptly following the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, that (x) Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of the Borrowers shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default (and following application as provided in this Section 4.5 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 2.8), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the applicable L/C Issuer or Administrative Agent, as applicable, may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Obligations hereunder, including Fronting Exposure.
Section 5.    Representations and Warranties.
Each Borrower represents and warrants to each Lender, the Administrative Agent, and each L/C Issuer as follows:
    Section 5.1.    Organization and Qualification. Each Borrower and each Guarantor (a) is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) is in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (c) has the power and authority to own its property and to transact the business in which it is engaged and proposes to engage and (d) is duly qualified and in good standing in each jurisdiction where the ownership, leasing or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except, in each case of clauses (a), (b) (other than with respect to each Borrower where failure to maintain such good standing is not curable or results in the dissolution of such Borrower), (c) and (d), where the same could not be reasonably expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
    Section 5.2.    Authority and Enforceability. Each Borrower has the power and authority to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents executed by it, to make the borrowings herein provided for, to issue its Notes (if any), to grant to the Administrative Agent the Liens described in the Collateral Documents executed by such Borrower, and to perform all of its obligations hereunder, and under the other Loan Documents executed by it. Each Guarantor has the power and authority to enter into the Loan Documents executed by it, to guarantee the Obligations, Hedging Liability, and Bank Product Liability, to grant to the Administrative Agent the Liens described in the Collateral Documents executed by such Person, and to perform all of its obligations under the Loan Documents executed by it. The Loan Documents delivered by each Borrower and by each Guarantor have been duly authorized by proper corporate and/or other organizational proceedings, executed, and delivered by such Person and constitute valid and binding obligations of such Person enforceable against it in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws effecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity (regardless of whether the application of such principles is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law); and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents do not, nor does the performance or observance by any Borrower or any Guarantor of any of the matters and things herein or therein provided for, (a) violate any provision of law or any judgment, injunction, order
-88-


or decree binding upon any Borrower or any Guarantor or any provision of the Organization Documents of any Borrower or any Guarantor, (b) violate any covenant, indenture or agreement of or affecting any Borrower or any Guarantor or any of its Property, in each case where such violation, contravention or default, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (c) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any Property of any Borrower or any Guarantor other than the Liens granted in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Collateral Documents (other than Permitted Liens).
    Section 5.3.    Financial Reports. (a) The audited consolidated financial statements of the MLP dated December 31, 2017 fairly and adequately present the consolidated financial condition of the MLP at said date and the consolidated results of its operations and cash flows for the fiscal year then ended in conformity with GAAP applied on a consistent basis. As of any date after the Restatement Effective Date, the audited consolidated financial statements of the MLP most recently furnished to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.1, fairly and adequately present the consolidated financial condition of the MLP as at said dates and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the periods then ended in conformity with GAAP applied on a consistent basis. Neither any Borrower nor any Subsidiary has contingent liabilities or judgments, orders or injunctions against it that are material to it other than as indicated on such financial statements or, with respect to future periods, on the financial statements furnished pursuant to Section 6.1.
    (b)    (i) The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Consolidated Group and the unaudited consolidated statements of income or operations of the Consolidated Group for the first fiscal quarter ending on June 30, 2018 and furnished to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.1 of the Prior Credit Agreement (x) were prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis throughout the period covered thereby, and (y) fairly present the financial condition of the Consolidated Group as of the date thereof and their results of operations for the period covered thereby, subject to the absence of footnotes and to normal year-end audit adjustments.
    Section 5.4.    No Material Adverse Change. Since December 31, 2017, there has been no event or circumstance, either individually or in the aggregate, that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
    Section 5.5.    Litigation and Other Controversies. There is no litigation, arbitration or governmental proceeding (including before FERC or any equivalent state regulatory authority) pending or, to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and each Subsidiary, threatened against the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
    Section 5.6.    True and Complete Disclosure. All information furnished by or on behalf of the General Partner, any Borrower, or any Subsidiary in writing to the Administrative Agent or any Lender for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement, or any transaction contemplated herein, is true and accurate in all material respects and not incomplete by omitting to state any fact necessary to make such information (taken as a whole) not misleading in light of the circumstances under which such information was provided; provided that, with respect to
-89-


projected financial information furnished by or on behalf of the General Partner (in its capacity as general partner of the MLP), any Borrower or any Subsidiary, the Borrowers only represent and warrant that such information is prepared in good faith based upon assumptions and estimates believed to be reasonable at the time of preparation and at the time of delivery.
    Section 5.7.    Use of Proceeds; Margin Stock. All proceeds of the Loans shall be used by the Borrowers for (a) working capital purposes, (b) Permitted Acquisitions and expenses incurred in connection therewith, (c) general corporate purposes, including the making of Capital Expenditures and the refinancing of existing Indebtedness, and (d) the making of Restricted Payments in compliance with Section 6.15. No part of the proceeds of any Loan or other extension of credit hereunder will be used by any Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof to purchase or carry any margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin stock. Neither the making of any Loan or other extension of credit hereunder nor the use of the proceeds thereof will violate or be inconsistent with the provisions of Regulations D, T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any successor to all or any portion of such regulations. Margin Stock (as defined above) constitutes less than 25% of the value of those assets of the MLP and its Subsidiaries that are subject to any limitation on sale, pledge or other restriction hereunder.
    Section 5.8.    Taxes. The General Partner, each Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be timely filed all tax returns required to be filed by such Borrower and/or any of its Subsidiaries, except where failure to so file could not be reasonably expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. Each Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has paid all Taxes payable by it other than (a) Taxes which are not delinquent, (b) Taxes that are being contested in good faith and by proper legal proceedings and as to which appropriate reserves have been provided for in accordance with GAAP and no Lien resulting therefrom attaches to any of its Property (other than any Permitted Liens), or (c) to the extent that failure to pay such Taxes could not reasonably be expected to cause a Lien to attach to any material portion of the Property of the MLP and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
    Section 5.9.    ERISA; Canadian Pension Plans. Except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect, with respect to any Pension Plan each Borrower and each other member of its Controlled Group has fulfilled its obligations under the minimum funding standards of, and is in compliance with, ERISA and the Code to the extent applicable to it and, other than a liability for premiums under Section 4007 of ERISA, has not incurred any liability to the PBGC or a Pension Plan or Multiemployer Plan under Title IV of ERISA. Except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect, each Borrower and its Subsidiaries have no contingent liabilities with respect to any post-retirement benefits under a Welfare Plan, other than liability for continuation coverage described in Part  6 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA or Section 4980B of the Code (“Post-Retirement Benefit Plan”). As of the Restatement Effective Date, neither the MLP, nor any Borrower, nor any such Subsidiary provides or has any obligations in respect of a Canadian Pension Plan.
    (b)    The Canadian Pension Plans, if applicable, are duly registered under the Income Tax Act (Canada) and all other applicable laws which require registration and no event has occurred
-90-


which is reasonably likely to cause the loss of such registered status, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All material obligations (including fiduciary, funding, investment and administration obligations) required to be performed in connection with the Canadian Pension Plans and Canadian Benefit Plans and any funding agreements therefor have been performed in a timely fashion, and for greater certainty, no contribution failure has occurred thereunder, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of the General Partner, the Borrowers, and the Subsidiaries there have been no improper withdrawals or applications of the assets of the Canadian Pension Plans or the Canadian Benefit Plans by the General Partner, any Borrower, or any Subsidiary, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of the General Partner, the Borrowers, and the Subsidiaries, there are no material outstanding disputes or proceedings concerning the assets of the Canadian Pension Plans or the Canadian Benefit Plans and no steps have been taken to terminate any Canadian Pension Plan or Canadian Benefit Plan and no circumstances exist which would be reasonably likely to result in the termination of any such Canadian Pension Plan or Canadian Benefit Plan, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, there are no actions, claims or proceedings other than routine claims for benefits which have been commenced against or in respect of any of the Canadian Pension Plans or the Canadian Benefit Plans, and to the knowledge of the Borrowers and Subsidiaries after due inquiry, none are reasonably expected to be asserted against any Canadian Pension Plan, the Canadian Benefit Plan or the assets thereof that would create a material liability. Based on the most recent actuarial valuations whether filed with government authorities or not (including, without limitation, the Canadian Pension Regulator), each of the Canadian Pension Plans, if any, was fully funded on a solvency basis as of the date of such actuarial valuations and no Canadian Pension Plan or Canadian Benefit Plan is “unfunded” on either a solvency or going concern basis. No benefit plan constituted under a Canadian Pension Plan or Canadian Benefit Plan was unfunded or self-insured.  No Canadian Benefit Plan that is a group insurance plan had a material deficit reserve. Each of the General Partner, the Borrowers and the Subsidiaries have fulfilled their material obligations in respect of any Canadian Union-Administered Plan as required pursuant to any collective agreement and applicable law, and no contribution failure has occurred, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Canadian Union-Administered Plan requires contributions beyond the then current accrual rate. For greater certainty, no Canadian Union-Administered Plan requires deficit or withdrawal payments, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no disputes, claims or proceedings, either pending or threatened, in connection with the obligations of the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary in respect of any Canadian Union-Administered Plan, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. None of the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary has any knowledge, nor any right to obtain knowledge, with respect to: (a) the terms of any Canadian Union-Administered Plan; (b) whether or not there are any outstanding disputes with parties other than the General Partner, any Borrower, and any Subsidiary in respect of any Canadian Union-Administered Plan; (c) whether or not each Canadian Union-Administered Plan has been administered in accordance with applicable law; nor (d) whether or not the assets of each Canadian Union-Administered Plan are sufficient to provide projected benefits; and none of the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary has
-91-


any obligation to make inquiries in respect of the foregoing or monitor the administration or funded status in respect of any Canadian Union-Administered Plan.
    Section 5.10.    Subsidiaries; Permitted Joint Ventures. Schedule 5.10 (as supplemented from time to time pursuant to Section 4.4) hereto identifies the following information for each Subsidiary: jurisdiction of its organization; the percentage of issued and outstanding interests of each class of its Ownership Interests owned by the MLP and other Subsidiaries; and, if such percentage is not 100% (excluding directors’ qualifying shares as required by law), a description of each class of its authorized Ownership Interests and the number of interests of each class issued and outstanding. All of the outstanding Ownership Interests of each Subsidiary are validly issued and outstanding and fully paid and nonassessable and all such Ownership Interests indicated on Schedule 5.10 (as supplemented from time to time pursuant to Section 4.4) as owned by the MLP or another Subsidiary are owned, beneficially and of record, by the MLP or such Subsidiary free and clear of all Liens other than the Liens granted in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Collateral Documents and Permitted Liens. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.10 (as supplemented from time to time pursuant to Section 4.4), there are no outstanding commitments or other obligations of the MLP or any Subsidiary to issue, and no options, warrants or other rights of any Person to acquire, any shares of any class of Ownership Interests of the Borrowers or any Subsidiary. No Subsidiary of any Borrower is a Foreign Subsidiary, other than any Canadian Subsidiary. Schedule 5.10 (as supplemented from time to time pursuant to Section 6.01(l)) hereto identifies the following information for each Permitted Joint Venture: jurisdiction of its organization; the percentage of issued and outstanding interests of each class of its Ownership Interests owned by the MLP, other Subsidiaries and other Persons; a description of each class of its authorized Ownership Interests and the number of interests of each class issued and outstanding. Such Ownership Interests in Permitted Joint Ventures are owned, beneficially and of record, by the MLP or a Subsidiary free and clear of all Liens other than the Liens granted in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Collateral Documents.
    Section 5.11.    Compliance with Laws. The General Partner, each Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance with all applicable statutes, regulations and orders of, and all applicable restrictions imposed by, all Governmental Authorities in respect of the conduct of their businesses and the ownership of their Property, except such noncompliances as could not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
    Section 5.12.    Environmental Matters. (a) Each Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries conducts in the ordinary course of business a review of the effect of existing and proposed Environmental Laws and known or suspected Environmental Claims on their respective businesses, operations and Properties, and as a result thereof, the Borrowers have reasonably concluded that, except as specifically disclosed in Schedule 5.12, any such Environmental Claims could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as specifically disclosed in Schedule 5.12, such Environmental Laws and Environmental Claims could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
-92-


    (b)    The General Partner, each Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws, except to the extent that the noncompliances individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.12 or as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, there are no pending or, to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and each Subsidiary, after due inquiry, threatened Environmental Claims, including any such claims (regardless of materiality) for liabilities under RCRA or CERCLA relating to the Release or disposal of Hazardous Materials, against the General Partner, any Borrower, any Subsidiary or any real property, including leaseholds and easements, owned or operated by the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.12 or as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, there are no facts, circumstances, conditions or occurrences on any real property, including leaseholds and easements, owned or operated by the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary that, to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and each Subsidiary, after due inquiry, could reasonably be expected (i) to form the basis of an Environmental Claim against the General Partner, any Borrower, any Subsidiary or any such real property, or (ii) to cause any such real property to be subject to any restrictions on the ownership, occupancy, use or transferability of such real property by the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary under any applicable Environmental Law. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.12 or as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and each Subsidiary, Hazardous Materials have not been Released on or from any real property, including leaseholds and easements, owned or operated by the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary.
    (c)    Except for matters that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, none of the Properties currently owned or operated by the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary is listed or proposed for listing on the NPL or on the CERCLIS or any analogous foreign, state or local list.
    (d)    (i) With respect to Contributed Assets contributed on or prior to the Restatement Effective Date, the Contributing Affiliates were, prior to such contribution, in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws and were not subject to any pending or threatened Environmental Claim relating to Environmental Laws or Hazardous Materials, except as set forth on Schedule 5.12 or to the extent that the noncompliances, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. With respect to Contributed Assets contributed after the Restatement Effective Date, to the knowledge of the General Partner, the Contributing Affiliates were, prior to such contribution, in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws and were not subject to any pending or threatened Environmental Claim relating to Environmental Laws or Hazardous Materials, except as set forth on Schedule 5.12 or to the extent that the noncompliances, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
    (ii)    With respect to Contributed Assets contributed on or prior to the Restatement Effective Date, neither any Contributing Affiliate nor any of its Subsidiaries had, prior to such contribution, undertaken, and had not completed and was not required to complete, either individually or together with other potentially responsible parties, any investigation or
-93-


assessment or remedial or response action relating to any actual, threatened, or suspected Release of Hazardous Materials at any real property, including leaseholds and easements, either voluntarily or pursuant to the order of any Governmental Authority or the requirements of any Environmental Law, except as set forth on Schedule 5.12 or as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect either individually or in the aggregate. With respect to Contributed Assets contributed after the Restatement Effective Date, to the knowledge of the General Partner, neither any Contributing Affiliate nor any of its Subsidiaries had, prior to such contribution, undertaken, and had not completed and was not required to complete, either individually or together with other potentially responsible parties, any investigation or assessment or remedial or response action relating to any actual, threatened, or suspected Release of Hazardous Materials at any real property, including leaseholds and easements, either voluntarily or pursuant to the order of any Governmental Authority or the requirements of any Environmental Law, except as set forth on Schedule 5.12 or as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect either individually or in the aggregate.
    (iii)    With respect to Contributed Assets contributed on or prior to the Restatement Effective Date, all Hazardous Materials generated, used, treated, handled or stored at, or transported to or from, any Property owned or operated at or prior to the time of the contribution of the applicable Contributed Assets by any Contributing Affiliate or any of its Subsidiaries were disposed of in a manner not reasonably expected to result in any Environmental Claim against any Contributing Affiliate or any of its Subsidiaries, except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, either individually or in the aggregate. With respect to Contributed Assets contributed after the Restatement Effective Date, to the knowledge of the General Partner, all Hazardous Materials generated, used, treated, handled or stored at, or transported to or from, any Property owned or operated at or prior to the time of the contribution of the applicable Contributed Assets by any Contributing Affiliate or any of its Subsidiaries were disposed of in a manner not reasonably expected to result in any Environmental Claim against any Contributing Affiliate or any of its Subsidiaries, except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, either individually or in the aggregate.

    Section 5.14.    Intellectual Property. The General Partner, the Borrowers and each of their Subsidiaries owns or has obtained licenses or other rights of whatever nature to all the patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets, know-how or other intellectual property rights necessary for the present conduct of its businesses, in each case without any known conflict with the rights of others except for such conflicts and any failure to own or obtain such licenses and other rights, as the case may be, as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
    Section 5.15.    Good Title. (a) Each Borrower and its Subsidiaries has good and marketable title (or, with respect to Texas Property, good and indefeasible title), or valid leasehold or easement or right-of-way interests, to and in their assets except, in each case, for sales of assets in the ordinary course of business or where failure to so have such title or interests could not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect, and is subject to no Liens, other than Permitted Liens.

The Pipeline Rights establish contiguous and continuous rights-of-way for each of the Pipeline and Transportation Systems and grant the MLP or its Subsidiaries, the right to construct, operate, and maintain each of the Pipeline and Transportation Systems in, over, under, or across the land covered thereby in the same way that a prudent owner and operator would inspect, operate, repair, and maintain similar assets and in the same way as MLP or its Subsidiaries have inspected, operated, repaired, and maintained each of the Pipeline and Transportation Systems as reflected in the audited consolidated financial statements of the MLP dated December 31, 2017, and as of any date after the Restatement Effective Date, as reflected on the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 6.1; provided, however, (A) some of the Pipeline Rights granted to MLP or its Subsidiaries by private parties and Governmental Authorities are revocable at the right of the applicable grantor or its successors-in-interest, (B) some of the rights-of-way may cross properties that are subject to Liens, covenants, conditions, and restrictions in favor of third parties that have not been subordinated to the Pipeline Rights; and (C) some Pipeline and Transportation Systems are subject to certain defects, omissions, limitations and restrictions; provided, further, that none of the limitations, defects, and restrictions described in clauses (A), (B) and (C) above could reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.
-95-

True, correct and complete copies of all Leased Terminal Leases in effect on the Restatement Effective Date have been provided to the Administrative Agent prior to the Restatement Effective Date.

The Pipeline Rights and Leased Terminal Leases (to the extent applicable) are in full force and effect in all material respects and are valid and enforceable against the parties thereto in accordance with their terms (subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance and similar laws effecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity) and all rental and other payments due thereunder by the Borrowers, their Subsidiaries and their predecessors in interest have been duly paid in accordance with the terms of the Pipeline Rights and Leased Terminal Leases, except to the extent that a failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.
    (e)    The Pipeline and Transportation Systems are located within the confines of the land covered by the Pipeline Rights and do not encroach upon any adjoining property, except where the failure of any portion of any of the Pipeline and Transportation Systems to be so located could not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. The Leased Terminals are located within the boundaries of the property affected by the Leased Terminal Leases and do not encroach upon any adjoining property, except where the failure of the Leased Terminal Leases to be so located could not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. The buildings and improvements owned or leased by any Borrower or any Subsidiary but not covered by a Title Insurance Policy as set forth in Section 3.2(j), and the operation and maintenance of such properties do not, to the knowledge of the each Borrower and each Subsidiary (i) contravene any applicable zoning or building law or ordinance or other administrative regulation or (ii) violate any applicable restrictive covenant or any applicable Legal Requirement, the contravention or violation of which, in either, case could be reasonably expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
    (f)    Except for eminent domain proceedings or takings that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, neither the General Partner nor any Borrower nor any Subsidiary has received any written notice that any eminent domain proceeding or taking has been commenced with respect to all or any portion of
-96-


the Pipeline and Transportation Systems or the Terminals, and, to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and each Subsidiary, no such proceeding or taking is contemplated.
    (g)    No portion of the Pipeline and Transportation Systems or the Terminals has suffered any material damage by fire or other casualty loss that has not heretofore been repaired and restored, except for such damage or other casualty loss that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
    Section 5.16.    Labor Relations. Neither the General Partner nor Borrower nor any Subsidiary is engaged in any unfair labor practice that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is (a) no strike, labor dispute, slowdown or stoppage pending against the General Partner or any Borrower or any Subsidiary or, to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and each Subsidiary, threatened against the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary and (b) to the knowledge of the General Partner, each Borrower and each Subsidiary, no union representation proceeding is pending with respect to the employees of the General Partner, any Borrower or any Subsidiary and no union organizing activities are taking place, except (with respect to any matter specified in clause (a) or (b) above, either individually or in the aggregate) such as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
    Section 5.17.    Governmental Authority and Licensing. The General Partner, each Borrower and its Subsidiaries have received all licenses, permits, and approvals of each Governmental Authority necessary to conduct their businesses, in each case where the failure to obtain or maintain the same could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

No Subsidiary of any Borrower shall be a Foreign Subsidiary, other than any Canadian Subsidiary.
    Section 6.5.    Compliance with Laws. Each Borrower shall, and shall cause each Subsidiary to, comply in all respects with the requirements of all laws, rules, regulations, ordinances and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to such Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ Property or business operations of any Governmental Authority, where any such non-compliance, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(a) Each Borrower shall, and shall cause each other member of its Controlled Group to, promptly pay and discharge all its obligations and liabilities arising under ERISA with respect to a Pension Plan or a Post-Retirement Benefit Plan of a character which if unpaid or unperformed would have a Material Adverse Effect or result in the imposition of a Lien that primes the Liens that secure the Obligations upon any of its Property.

-110-


“Canadian Plans” or individually, a “Canadian Plan”) of a character which if unpaid or unperformed would result in the imposition of a Lien against any of its Property or have a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrowers shall, and shall cause each Subsidiary to, if a material liability to a Borrower or a Guarantor would result, promptly notify the Administrative Agent of: (i) the occurrence of any reportable event with respect to a Canadian Plan, or (ii) receipt of any notice from the Canadian Pension Regulator of its intention to seek termination or wind-up, in whole or in part, of any Canadian Plan or appointment of a trustee therefor, in a non-standard termination. The Borrowers shall cause to be delivered to the Administrative Agent, if a Material Adverse Effect would be reasonably likely to result, (i) promptly after receipt thereof a copy of any material direction, order, notice, ruling or opinion from any governmental authority (including without limitation the Canadian Pension Regulator) with respect to any Canadian Plan (including any notice or proposal to terminate or wind up, in whole or in part, any Canadian Pension Plan or Canadian Benefit Plan), (ii) any default or violation notice under any Canadian Plan or any suit, action, claim or proceeding commenced or threatened with respect to any Canadian Plan or its assets that could result in any material liability, payment of taxes, fine or penalty or (iii) any material change in the funding or contribution requirements for any Canadian Plan.

(For purposes of clarity, the parties hereto agree that any change that occurs pursuant to the express, self-operative terms of any Material Agreement does not constitute a modification under the foregoing sentence). Each Borrower and each Subsidiary shall perform and observe all the terms and provisions of each Material Agreement to be performed or observed by it, maintain each such Material Agreement in full force and effect, enforce each such Material Agreement in accordance with its terms, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, make to each other party to each such Material Agreement such demands and requested for information and reports or for action as any Borrower or any Subsidiary, as applicable, is entitled to make under such Material Agreement, except, in any case, where failure to do so, either individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
