If for any reason Revolving Loans are not made pursuant to this Section 2.1A(ii) in an amount sufficient to repay any amounts owed to the Swing Line Lender in respect of any outstanding Swing Line Loans on or before the third Business Day after demand for payment thereof by the Swing Line Lender, each Revolving Loan Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby agrees to, have purchased a participation in such outstanding Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the applicable unpaid amount together with accrued interest thereon. Upon one Business Day’s notice from the Swing Line Lender, each such Revolving Loan Lender shall deliver to the Swing Line Lender an amount in the applicable currency and equal to its participation in the applicable unpaid amount in same day funds at the office of the Swing Line Lender located at the Funding and Payment Office. In order to evidence such participation each such Lender agrees to enter into a participation agreement at the request of the Swing Line Lender in form and substance satisfactory to the Swing Line Lender; provided, however, that the failure of the Swing Line Lender to make such a request shall not affect the rights or obligations of the Swing Line Lender or any other Lender hereunder. In the event any such Lender fails to make available to the Swing Line Lender the amount of such Lender’s participation as provided in this paragraph, the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the rate customarily used by the Swing Line Lender for the correction of errors among banks for three Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate or the Canadian Prime Rate, as applicable.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (i) each such Revolving Loan Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans for the purpose of repaying any Refunded Swing Line Loans pursuant to the second preceding paragraph and each such Revolving Loan Lender’s obligation to purchase a participation in any unpaid Swing Line Loans pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (a) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (b) the occurrence or continuation of a Default or Event of Default, (c) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Holdings, any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries, (d) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any party thereto or (e) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

Nothing contained in this Section 2.1A(iii) or otherwise in this Agreement is intended to commit any Lender or any Agent to provide any portion of any such additional Commitments. If and to the extent that any Qualified Additional Lenders agree, in their sole discretion, to provide any such additional Commitments on the terms and conditions set forth herein, (a) at such time and in such manner as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably determine, the Qualified Additional Lenders who have in their sole discretion agreed to provide additional Commitments shall purchase and assume outstanding Revolving Loans

and/or participations incurred in connection with Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans so as to cause the amount of such Revolving Loans and/or participations in connection with Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans held by each Revolving Loan Lender to conform to the respective percentages of the applicable Commitments of the Revolving Loan Lenders as so adjusted and (b) the Co-Borrowers shall execute and deliver any additional Notes as any Lender may reasonably request or other amendments or modifications to this Agreement or any other Loan Document as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

If any new Commitments incurred pursuant to this Section 2.1A(iii) are to have terms that are different from the Commitments outstanding immediately prior to such incurrence (any such new Commitments, “Other Credit Extensions”), all such terms shall be as set forth in a separate assumption agreement among Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Borrowers, the Qualified Additional Lenders providing such additional Revolving Commitments and the Administrative Agent, the execution and delivery of which agreement shall be a condition to the effectiveness of the Other Credit Extensions. If the Borrowers incur new Commitments under this Section 2.1A(iii), regardless of whether such Commitments are Other Credit Extensions, the Borrowers shall, after such time, (x) incur and repay Revolving Loans ratably as between the new Commitments and the Commitments outstanding immediately prior to such incurrence and (y) permanently reduce Commitments ratably as between the new Commitments and the Commitments outstanding immediately prior to such incurrence; provided that on the date of incurrence of the new Commitments, the Borrowers may permanently reduce the Commitments outstanding immediately prior to such time without ratably reducing the new Commitments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.5, the Administrative Agent is expressly permitted, without the consent of any Lender, to amend the Loan Documents to the extent necessary to give effect to any increases pursuant to this Section 2.1A(iii) and mechanical and conforming changes necessary or advisable in connection therewith (including amendments to (1) implement the requirements in the preceding two sentences, (2) ensure pro rata allocations of Eurodollar Rate Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans, CDOR Rate Loans and Base Rate Loans between Loans incurred pursuant to this Section 2.1A(iii) and Loans outstanding immediately prior to any such incurrence and (3) implement ratable participation in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans between the Other Credit Extensions consisting of Commitments and the Commitments outstanding immediately prior to any such incurrence).

B. Borrowing Mechanics. Revolving Loans (including any such Loans made as Eurodollar Rate Loans or CDOR Rate Loans with a particular Interest Period) made on any Funding Date (other than Revolving Loans made pursuant to a request by the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.1A(ii) for the purpose of repaying any Refunded Swing Line Loans and Revolving Loans made pursuant to Section 3.3B for the purpose of reimbursing the applicable Issuing Bank for the amount of a drawing or payment under a Letter of Credit issued by it) shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of the Borrowing Minimum and integral multiples of the Borrowing Multiple in excess of that amount. Swing Line Loans made on any Funding Date shall be in minimum multiples of $100,000 or C$100,000, as the case may be. The Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York time), at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed Funding Date; provided that, in the case of any such Loan requested as a Fixed Rate Loan, the Borrowers shall deliver such Notice of Borrowing no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York time), at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed Funding Date. Whenever the Borrowers desire that the Swing Line Lender make a Swing Line Loan, they shall deliver to the

Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York time) on the proposed Funding Date. The Notice of Borrowing shall specify (i) the proposed Funding Date (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) whether such Loans are to be U.S. Loans or Canadian Loans, (iii) the amount and Type of Loans requested, (iv) in the case of Swing Line Loans, that such Loans shall be Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as the case may be, (v) in the case of any Revolving Loans, other than Swing Line Loans, whether such Revolving Loans shall be Base Rate Loans, Eurodollar Rate Loans, CDOR Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, (vi) in the case of any Loans requested to be made as Eurodollar Rate Loans or CDOR Rate Loans, the initial Interest Period requested, and (vii) remittance instructions applicable for the Loans requested. Revolving Loans may be continued as or converted into Base Rate Loans, Eurodollar Rate Loans, CDOR Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans in the manner provided in Section 2.2D.

In lieu of delivering the above-described Notices of Borrowing, the Borrowers may give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice by the required time of any proposed borrowing under this Section 2.1B; provided that such notice shall be promptly confirmed in writing by delivery of a Notice of Borrowing to the Administrative Agent on or before the applicable Funding Date. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall incur any liability to any Borrower in acting upon any telephonic notice referred to above that the Administrative Agent believes in good faith to have been given by a duly authorized officer or other person authorized to borrow on behalf of the Borrowers or for otherwise acting in good faith under this Section 2.1B, and upon funding of Loans by the Lenders in accordance with this Agreement pursuant to any such telephonic notice, the Borrowers shall have effected Loans hereunder.

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Conversion/Continuation or similar notice believed by the Administrative Agent to be genuine. The Administrative Agent may assume that each Person executing and delivering such a notice was duly authorized, unless the responsible individual acting thereon for the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge to the contrary.

The Borrowers shall notify the Administrative Agent prior to the funding of any Revolving Loans in the event that any of the matters to which the Borrowers are required to certify in the applicable Notice of Borrowing are no longer true and correct as of the applicable Funding Date, and the acceptance by the Borrowers of the proceeds of any Revolving Loans shall constitute a re-certification by the Borrowers, as of the applicable Funding Date, as to the matters to which the Borrowers are required to certify in the applicable Notice of Borrowing.

Except as otherwise provided in Sections 2.6B, 2.6C, 2.6D and 2.6G, a Notice of Borrowing for any Loan (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) shall be irrevocable and the Borrowers shall be bound to make a borrowing in accordance therewith.

C. Disbursement of Funds. All Revolving Loans and all participations purchased under this Agreement shall be made by the Revolving Loan Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in that other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder nor shall the Commitment of any Lender to make the particular type of Loan requested be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in that other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder.

Promptly after receipt by the Administrative Agent of a Notice of Borrowing with respect to a Revolving Loan pursuant to Section 2.1B (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, of the proposed borrowing and of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the applicable Revolving Loans. Each Lender shall make the amount of its Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent in the applicable currency not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York time) on the applicable Funding Date in same-day funds at the Funding and Payment Office. The Swing Line Lender shall make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Borrowers in the applicable currency not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the applicable Funding Date in same-day funds, at the applicable Funding and Payment Office, except as provided in Section 2.1A(ii) or Section 3.3B with respect to Revolving Loans used to repay Refunded Swing Line Loans or to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for the amount of an Unpaid Drawing. Upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent specified in Section 4.2, the Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of such Loans in the applicable currency available to the Borrowers on the applicable Funding Date by causing an amount of same-day funds equal to the proceeds of all such Loans received by the Administrative Agent from the Lenders, to be credited to the account of the Borrowers at the Funding and Payment Office.

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the Funding Date for any Loans that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Loan requested on such Funding Date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.1A and may, in reliance upon such assumption and in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount on such Funding Date. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Loan available to the Administrative Agent on the Funding Date, then the applicable Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, for the first three (3) days, at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and, thereafter, the greater of (x) in the case of U.S. Loans, the Base Rate, and in the case of Canadian Loans, the Canadian Prime Rate, and (y) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by a Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as the case may be, of the applicable Class. If a Borrower and such Lender shall pay such 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 such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such borrowing. Nothing in this paragraph shall relieve any Lender of its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder and Borrowers shall be without prejudice to any claim any Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

Subject to Section 3.3B, 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 and the applicable Issuing Bank 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 Issuing Bank, 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 such Issuing Bank, 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 Issuing Bank, 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, for the first three days, at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and, thereafter, at the greater of (i) in the case of U.S. Loans, the Base Rate, and in the case of Canadian Loans, the Canadian Prime Rate, and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

D. Notes. Each of the Co-Borrowers shall execute and deliver on the Effective Date to each Lender requesting the same (or to the Administrative Agent for such Lender) (i) a Revolving Note substantially in the form of Exhibit IV-A annexed hereto to evidence that Lender’s Revolving Loans, in the principal amount of that Lender’s Commitment and (ii) a Swing Line Note in the form of Exhibit IV-B annexed hereto to evidence the Swing Line Lender’s Swing Line Loans, in the principal amount of the Swing Line Loan Commitment. Any Lender not receiving a Note may request at any time that the Borrowers issue it such Note on the terms set forth herein, and each of the Borrowers agree to issue such Note promptly upon the request of a Lender. The Notes and the Obligations evidenced thereby shall be governed by, subject to and benefit from all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall be secured by the Collateral.

A. Rate of Interest. Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.2E, 2.6 and 2.7, each Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made to maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate, the Canadian Prime Rate, the CDOR Rate or the Reserve Adjusted Eurodollar Rate, as the case may be. Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.2E and 2.7, each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made to maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate determined by reference to (i) in the case of Swing Line Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, the Base Rate, and (ii) in the case of Swing Line Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, the Canadian Prime Rate. The applicable basis for determining the rate of interest with respect to any Loan shall be selected by the Borrowers initially at the time a Notice of Borrowing is given with respect to such Loan pursuant to Section 2.1B. The basis for determining the interest rate with respect to any Loan may be changed from time to time pursuant to Section 2.2D. If on any day any Loan is outstanding with respect to which notice has not been delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement specifying the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest, then for that day that Loan shall bear interest determined by reference to the Base Rate in the case of U.S. Loans and by reference to the Canadian Prime Rate in the case of Canadian Loans. Subject to the provisions of Sections 2.2E, 2.6 and 2.7, the Loans shall bear interest through maturity as follows:

(a) if a Base Rate Loan, then at the sum of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin;

(b) if a Canadian Prime Rate Loan, then at the sum of the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin;

(c) if a Eurodollar Rate Loan, then at the sum of the Reserve Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for the relevant Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin; or

(d) if a CDOR Rate Loan, then at the sum of the CDOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

B. Interest Periods. In connection with each Fixed Rate Loan, the Borrowers may, pursuant to the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, as the case may be, select an interest period (each an “Interest Period”) to be applicable to such Loan, which Interest Period shall (except as provided in Section 2.1B) be, at the Borrowers’ option, (i) in the case of U.S. Loans, one-, two-, three- or six-month, or, if agreed to by all of the Lenders, nine- or twelve-month or shorter than one-month, period and (ii) in the case of Canadian Loans, 30 days, 60 days, 90 days or 180 days; provided that:

(A) the initial Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Loan shall commence on the Funding Date in respect of such Loan, in the case of a Loan initially made as a Eurodollar Rate Loan, or on the date specified in the applicable Notice of Conversion/Continuation, in the case of a Loan converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan;

(B) in the case of immediately successive Interest Periods applicable to a Eurodollar Rate Loan continued as such pursuant to a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, each successive Interest Period shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period expires;

(C) if an Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided that, if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;

(D) any Interest Period that begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month (or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period) shall, subject to clause (i)(E) of this Section 2.2B, end on the last Business Day of a calendar month;

(E) no Interest Period with respect to any portion of the Loans of any Class shall extend beyond the Commitment Termination Date or other final maturity date (in the case of Other Credit Extensions), as applicable, of such Class;

(F) there shall be no more than five Interest Periods in respect of Eurodollar Rate Loans outstanding at any time; and

(G) in the event the Borrower fails to specify an Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Loan in the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Conversion/Continuation, such Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month; and

(A) the initial Interest Period for any CDOR Rate Loan shall commence on the Funding Date in respect of such Loan, in the case of a Loan initially made as a CDOR Rate Loan, or on the date specified in the applicable Notice of Conversion/Continuation, in the case of a Loan converted to a CDOR Rate Loan;

(B) in the case of immediately successive Interest Periods applicable to a CDOR Rate Loan continued as such pursuant to a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, each successive Interest Period shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period expires;

(C) if an Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall be extended or reduced as may be reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to ensure that each Interest Period shall expire on a Business Day;

(D) no Interest Period with respect to any portion of the Loans of any Class shall extend beyond the Commitment Termination Date or other final maturity date (in the case of Other Credit Extensions), as applicable, of such Class;

(E) there shall be no more than five Interest Periods in respect of CDOR Rate Loans outstanding at any time; and

(F) in the event the Borrowers fail to specify an Interest Period for any CDOR Rate Loan in the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Conversion/Continuation, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of 30 days.

C. Interest Payments. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.2E below, interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable to that Loan, upon any prepayment of that Loan (to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid) and at maturity (including final maturity, by acceleration or otherwise); provided that in the event that any Daily Rate Loans are prepaid pursuant to Section 2.4A(i), interest accrued on such Loans through the date of such prepayment shall be payable on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date applicable to Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as the case may be (or, if earlier, at final maturity).

D. Conversion or Continuation. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.6, the Borrowers shall have the option (i) to convert at any time all or any part of their outstanding Loans equal to the Borrowing Minimum and integral multiples of the Borrowing Multiple in excess of that amount from Daily Rate Loans to Fixed Rate Loans in the same currency (or vice versa) or (ii) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a Fixed Rate Loan, to continue all or any portion of such Loan equal to the Borrowing Minimum and integral multiples of the Borrowing Multiple in excess of that amount as a Fixed Rate Loan in the same currency for another permissible Interest Period.

The Borrowers shall deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation to the Administrative Agent no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York time) at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to a Daily Rate Loan), and at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Fixed Rate Loan). A Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall specify (i) the proposed conversion/continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the amount, Type and Class of the Loan to be converted/continued, (iii) the nature of the proposed

conversion/continuation, (iv) in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Fixed Rate Loan, the requested Interest Period and (v) in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Fixed Rate Loan, that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. In lieu of delivering the above-described Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Borrowers may give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice by the required time of any proposed conversion/continuation under this Section 2.2D; provided that such notice shall be promptly confirmed in writing by delivery of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation to the Administrative Agent on or before the proposed conversion/continuation date. Each conversion or continuance shall be made ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising the affected Borrowing. For purposes of this Section 2.2D, “Borrowing” means Loans of the same Class, Type and currency, made, converted or continued on the same date and, in the case of Fixed Rate Loans, as to which a single Interest Period is in effect. If the Borrowers shall not have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.2D to continue any Borrowing into a subsequent Interest Period (and shall not otherwise have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.2D to convert such Borrowing), such Borrowing shall, at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), automatically be continued into a Base Rate Loan or Canadian Prime Rate Loan, as the case may be.

If the Borrowers fail to specify the Type of Loan the applicable Borrowing is to be converted into or continued as, then the applicable Borrowing shall be deemed to have been requested to be converted into or continued as a Base Rate Loan or a Canadian Prime Rate Loan, as the case may be.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall incur any liability to any Borrower in acting upon any telephonic notice referred to above that the Administrative Agent believes in good faith to have been given by a duly authorized officer or other person authorized to act on behalf of the Borrowers or for otherwise acting in good faith under this Section 2.2D, and upon conversion or continuation of the applicable basis for determining the interest rate with respect to any Loans in accordance with this Agreement pursuant to any such telephonic notice, the Borrowers shall have effected a conversion or continuation, as the case may be, hereunder.

Except as otherwise provided in Sections 2.6B, 2.6C and 2.6G, a Notice of Conversion/Continuation for conversion to, or continuation of, any Eurodollar Rate Loan (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) shall be irrevocable, and the Borrowers shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith.

E. Post-Default Interest. At any time that an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan or interest thereon or fees or other amounts due hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code, or other applicable bankruptcy or insolvency laws) payable upon demand (a) in the case of principal, at the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan plus 2% per annum and (b) in all other cases, at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under this Agreement for Revolving Loans bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate for Revolving Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days), in each case to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.2E is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

F. Computation of Interest. Interest on Loans shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year (a 365-or 366-day year, as applicable, in the case of Base Rate Loans based on the Prime Rate and Canadian Prime Rate Loans) and for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Daily Rate Loan being converted from a Fixed Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Fixed Rate Loan to such Daily Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Daily Rate Loan being converted to a Fixed Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Daily Rate Loan to such Fixed Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan. For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) disclosure thereunder, whenever any interest or any fee to be paid hereunder or in connection herewith is to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day or 365-day year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate used in such calculation is equivalent is the rate so used multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 360 or 365, as applicable. The rates of interest under this Agreement are nominal rates, and not effective rates or yields. The principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement.

A. Facility Fees. The Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for distribution to each Revolving Loan Lender in proportion to that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Commitments, facility fees (the “Facility Fees”) for the period from and including the Effective Date to and excluding the Commitment Termination Date equal to (i) the actual daily amount of the aggregate Commitments (whether used or unused) multiplied by (ii) a rate per annum equal to the Facility Fee Rate at such time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Revolving Loan Exposure remains outstanding following the Commitment Termination Date, the Facility Fees shall continue to accrue on such Revolving Loan Exposure for so long as such Revolving Loan Exposure remains outstanding and shall be payable on demand. In addition, the Facility Fees accrued with respect to the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender (except to the extent allocable to the Revolving Credit Loans, LC Disbursements and participations in Swing Line Loans actually funded by such Defaulting Lender) during the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrowers so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the extent that the Facility Fees shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrowers prior to such time; provided, that no Facility Fees shall accrue on the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender (except to the extent allocable to the Revolving Credit Loans, LC Disbursements and participations in Swing Line Loans actually funded by such Defaulting Lender) so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. The Facility Fees shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day in each of March, June, September and December of each year, commencing on September 30, 2011, and ending on the Commitment Termination Date (unless Revolving Loan Exposure shall be outstanding following the Commitment Termination Date, as provided above).

B. Annual Administrative Fee. Holdings agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of it and its Affiliates, an annual administrative fee in such amounts as may have been or hereafter may be agreed between them from time to time.

C. Other Agent Fees. Holdings and each Borrower agree to pay such other fees to Agents as may hereafter be agreed upon from time to time.

(i) Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrowers may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date of prepayment, at any time and from time to time voluntarily prepay, without premium or penalty (except as otherwise provided below), any Swing Line Loan on any Business Day in whole or in part in integrals of $100,000 or C$100,000, as applicable. In addition, the Borrowers may, upon not less than (i) three Business Days’ prior written or telephonic notice, in the case of Fixed Rate Loans, or (ii) one Business Day’s prior written or telephonic notice, in the case of Daily Rate Loans, promptly confirmed in writing to the Administrative Agent (which notice the Administrative Agent will promptly transmit to each Lender), at any time and from time to time prepay, without premium or penalty, the Loans (other than Swing Line Loans) on any Business Day in whole or in part in an aggregate minimum amount of the Borrowing Minimum and integral multiples of the Borrowing Multiple in excess of that amount or in each case such lesser amount as is then outstanding; provided, however, that in the event the Borrowers shall prepay a Fixed Rate Loan other than on the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrowers shall, at the time of such prepayment, also pay any amounts payable under Section 2.6D hereof. Notice of prepayment having been given as aforesaid, the Loans shall become due and payable on the prepayment date specified in such notice and in the aggregate principal amount specified therein.

(ii) Voluntary Reductions of Commitments. The Borrowers may, upon not less than three Business Days’ prior written or telephonic notice, promptly confirmed in writing to the Administrative Agent (which notice the Administrative Agent will promptly transmit to each Lender), at any time and from time to time terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part, without premium or penalty, the Commitments in an amount up to the Unused Revolving Commitment at the time of such proposed termination or reduction; provided that any such partial reduction of the Commitments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of the Borrowing Minimum and integral multiples of the Borrowing Multiple in excess of that amount, or such lesser amount as is then outstanding. The Borrowers’ notice to the Administrative Agent shall designate the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such termination or reduction and the amount of any partial reduction, and such termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be effective on the date specified in such notice and shall reduce the Commitment of each Lender proportionately to its Pro Rata Share.

(iii) Mandatory Prepayments. The Loans shall be prepaid in the manner provided in Section 2.4B upon the occurrence of the following circumstances:

(a) Prepayments Due to Reductions or Restrictions of Commitments. The Borrowers shall prepay the Swing Line Loans and/or Revolving Loans from time to time to the extent necessary so that (i) the Total Utilization of Commitments shall not at any time exceed the Commitments then in effect and (ii) the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Swing Line Loans shall not at any time exceed the Swing Line Loan Commitment then in effect. All

Swing Line Loans shall be prepaid in full prior to the prepayment of any Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.4A(iii)(a). If at any time that there are no Revolving Loans or Swing Line Loans outstanding (whether after giving effect to any prepayment thereof pursuant to this subclause (a) or otherwise) the Total Utilization of Commitments exceeds the Commitments, the Borrowers shall deposit as cash collateral with the Collateral Agent such amounts as are necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, the amount on deposit in the form of cash collateral with the Collateral Agent pursuant to this subclause (a) is at least equal to such excess. If, on the tenth Business Day prior to the Commitment Termination Date, the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in Section 4.2B would not be satisfied, then the Borrowers shall, on such date, cash collateralize such amount of Letter of Credit Usage that is attributable to the Commitments. Any failure to make such deposit within two Business Days after notice by the Administrative Agent shall constitute an Event of Default.

(b) Prepayments Due to Availability Amount. If at any time the Total Utilization of Commitments exceeds the Availability Amount then in effect, the Borrowers shall, within five Business Days of such occurrence, (x) prepay the Swing Line Loans and/or Revolving Loans from time to time to the extent necessary so that the Total Utilization of Commitments shall not at any time exceed the Availability Amount then in effect or (y) deliver additional Mortgages to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 6.8B such that, immediately after giving effect to the delivery of such additional Mortgages, the Total Utilization of Commitments shall not at any time exceed the Availability Amount; provided that the delivery of such additional Mortgages shall be accompanied by a certificate executed by a Responsible Officer of the U.S. Borrower certifying in good faith that, immediately after giving effect to the delivery of such additional Mortgages, the Total Utilization of Commitments shall not at such time exceed the Availability Amount. If at any time that there are no Revolving Loans or Swing Line Loans outstanding (whether after giving effect to any prepayment thereof pursuant to this subclause (b) or otherwise) the Total Utilization of Commitments exceeds the Availability Amount then in effect, the Borrowers shall, within five Business Days of such occurrence, (x) deposit as cash collateral with the Collateral Agent such amounts as are necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, the amount on deposit in the form of cash collateral with the Collateral Agent pursuant to this subclause (b) is at least equal to such excess or (y) deliver additional Mortgages to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 6.8B such that, immediately after giving effect to the delivery of such additional Mortgages, the Total Utilization of Commitments shall not at any time exceed the Availability Amount; provided that the delivery of such Mortgages shall be accompanied by a certificate executed by a Responsible Officer of the U.S. Borrower certifying in good faith that, immediately after giving effect to the delivery of such additional Mortgages, the Total Utilization of Commitments shall not at such time exceed the Availability Amount.

(c) Other Prepayments. If for any reason the Canadian Revolving Exposure exceeds 105% of the Canadian Sublimit, the Borrowers shall promptly prepay Canadian Loans to the extent necessary so that the Canadian Revolving Exposure shall not exceed the Canadian Sublimit then in effect. All Swing Line

Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars shall be prepaid in full prior to the prepayment of any Revolving Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars pursuant to this Section 2.4A(iii)(c). If at any time that there are no Canadian Loans (whether after giving effect to any prepayment thereof pursuant to this subclause (c) or otherwise), the Canadian Revolving Exposure exceeds 105% of the Canadian Sublimit, the Borrowers shall deposit as cash collateral for Canadian Letters of Credit with the Collateral Agent such amounts as are necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, the amount on deposit in the form of cash collateral with the Collateral Agent pursuant to this subclause (c) is at least equal to the amount by which the Canadian Revolving Exposure exceeds the Canadian Sublimit then in effect.

(iv) Application of Prepayments. Application of Prepayments by Type of Loans. Any voluntary prepayments pursuant to Section 2.4A shall be subject to the requirements of Section 2.6C; provided that, in connection with any voluntary prepayments by a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.4A and considering each Class of Revolving Loans being prepaid separately, any voluntary prepayment thereof shall be applied first to Daily Rate Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Fixed Rate Loans, in each case in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.6C.

B. Application of Proceeds of Collateral and Payments Under the Guaranty and Certain Other Amounts.

(i) Application of Proceeds of Collateral. All proceeds received by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral under any Collateral Document in connection with the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent exercising its/their rights and remedies following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default shall be held by the Collateral Agent as Collateral for, and/or (then or at any time thereafter) applied in full or in part by the Administrative Agent against the Obligations in the following order of priority:

(a) to the payment of (i) all costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, including all reasonable expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Agents in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under such Collateral Document, all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such Collateral Document, and all amounts for which such Agents are entitled to indemnification under such Collateral Document and all advances made by the Collateral Agent thereunder for the account of the applicable Loan Party (excluding principal and interest in respect to any Loans of such Loan Party); (ii) any outstanding Swing Line Loans and (iii) any amounts owed to any Issuing Bank in respect of any Unpaid Drawings not reimbursed pursuant to Section 3.3B or 3.3C;

(b) thereafter, to the extent of any excess proceeds, to the payment of all other Obligations for the ratable benefit of the holders thereof (including providing cash collateral in an amount equal to 102% of the aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time);

(c) thereafter, to the extent of any excess proceeds, to the payment to or upon the order of such Loan Party or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

(ii) Application of Payments Under the Guaranty. All payments received by the Administrative Agent under the Guaranty shall be applied promptly from time to time by the Administrative Agent in the following order of priority:

(a) to the payment of the reasonable costs and expenses of any collection or other realization under such Guaranty, including reasonable compensation to the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith, all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such Guaranty;

(b) thereafter, to the extent of any excess such payments, to the payment of all other Obligations for the ratable benefit of the holders thereof;

(c) thereafter, to the extent of any excess such payments, to the payment to the applicable Guarantor or to whosoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

(i) Manner, Time and Currency of Payment. All payments by the Borrowers of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations hereunder and under the Notes shall be made in same day funds and without defense, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the date due at the Funding and Payment Office for the account of the Lenders; funds received by the Administrative Agent after that time on such due date shall, at the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, be deemed to have been paid by the Borrowers on the next succeeding Business Day. For purposes of computing interest or fees, any payments under this Agreement that are made later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day, in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion. The Borrowers hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to charge their accounts with the Administrative Agent in order to cause timely payment to be made to the Administrative Agent of all principal, interest, fees and expenses due hereunder (subject to sufficient funds being available in their accounts for that purpose). Each payment to be made by the Borrowers hereunder (other than in respect of Canadian Loans and Canadian LC Disbursements, which each shall be made in Canadian Dollars) shall be made in U.S. Dollars.

(ii) Application of Payments to Principal, Interest and Prepayment Fees. Except as provided in Section 2.2C, all payments and prepayments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan shall include payment of accrued interest and prepayment fees, if any, on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid, and all such payments (and in any event any payments made in respect of any Loan on a date when interest is due and payable with respect to such Loan) shall be applied to the payment of interest and prepayment fees, if any, before application to principal.

(iii) Apportionment of Payments. The aggregate principal, prepayment fees and interest payments shall be apportioned among all outstanding Loans to which such payments relate, in each case proportionately to the Lenders’ respective Pro Rata Shares. The Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each applicable Lender, at its applicable Lender Office, its Pro Rata Share of all such payments received by the Administrative Agent and the Facility Fees of such Lender when received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.4C(iii) if, pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.6C, any Notice of Conversion/Continuation is withdrawn as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Daily Rate Loans in lieu of its Pro Rata Share of any Fixed Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent shall give effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter.

(iv) Payments on Business Days. Except if expressly provided otherwise, whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

(v) Notation of Payment. Each Lender agrees that before disposing of any Note held by it, or any part thereof (other than by granting participations therein), that Lender will make a notation thereon of all Loans evidenced by that Note and all principal payments previously made thereon and of the date to which interest thereon has been paid; provided that the failure to make (or any error in the making of) a notation of any Loan made under such Note shall not limit or otherwise affect such disposition or the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder or under such Note with respect to any Loan or any payments of principal or interest on such Note.

A. Loans. The proceeds of any Loans shall be applied for working capital and general corporate purposes (including Permitted Acquisitions and Investments permitted under this Agreement) of the Co-Borrowers and their Subsidiaries.

B. Letters of Credit. Letters of Credit shall be used for general corporate purposes of the Co-Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, including backstopping or replacing letters of credit (or other comparable arrangements) of the Borrowers outstanding on the Effective Date.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the following provisions shall govern with respect to Fixed Rate Loans as to the matters covered:

A. Determination of Applicable Interest Rate. As soon as practicable after 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on each Interest Rate Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to Fixed Rate Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrowers and each Lender.

B. Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. In the event that the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and

binding upon all parties hereto), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any Fixed Rate Loans, that by reason of circumstances arising after the Effective Date affecting the London or Toronto interbank market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such Loans on the basis provided for in the definition of Reserve Adjusted Eurodollar Rate or CDOR Rate, as the case may be, such Administrative Agent shall on such date give notice (by telecopy or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrowers and each Lender of such determination, whereupon (i) no Loans may be made or continued as, or converted to, Fixed Rate Loans in the applicable currency, until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist (such notification not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (ii) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by a Borrower with respect to the Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by the Borrowers; provided, however, that, at the option of the Borrowers, any such Notice of Borrowing may be re-submitted to the Administrative Agent indicating that the Borrowers are electing a Daily Rate Loan, which Loan shall be funded no later than one Business Day after the date of such Daily Rate Loan Notice of Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.1B.

C. Illegality or Impracticability of Fixed Rate Loans. In the event that on any date any Lender shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but shall be made only after consultation with the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent) that the making, maintaining or continuation of its Eurodollar Rate Loans and/or CDOR Rate Loans (i) has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful) or (ii) has become impracticable as a result of contingencies occurring after the Effective Date which materially and adversely affect the London interbank market and/or the Toronto interbank market, as the case may be, then, and in any such event, such Lender shall be an “Affected Lender” and it shall on that day give notice (by telecopy or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Thereafter (a) the obligation of the Affected Lender to make Loans as, or to convert Loans to, Fixed Rate Loans in the applicable currency shall be suspended until such notice shall be withdrawn by the Affected Lender, (b) to the extent such determination by the Affected Lender relates to a Fixed Rate Loan then being requested pursuant to the Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Affected Lender shall make such Loan as (or convert such Loan to, as the case may be) a Daily Rate Loan in such currency, (c) the Affected Lender’s obligation to maintain its outstanding Fixed Rate Loans in the applicable currency (the “Affected Loans”) shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law, and (d) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into Daily Rate Loans in the applicable currency on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender as described above relates to a Fixed Rate Loan then being requested pursuant to a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Borrowers shall have the option, subject to the provisions of Section 2.6D, to rescind such Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation as to all Lenders by giving notice (by telecopy or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Affected Lender gives notice of its determination as described above (which notice of rescission the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing in this Section 2.6C shall affect the obligation of any Lender other than an Affected Lender to make or maintain Loans as, or to convert Loans to, Fixed Rate Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

D. Compensation For Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. The Borrowers shall compensate the Administrative Agent, upon written request by any Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid by such Lender to the lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its Fixed Rate Loans and any actual loss, expense or liability sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds, but excluding any loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) a borrowing of any Fixed Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a telephonic request for borrowing, or a conversion to or continuation of any Fixed Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Conversion/Continuation or a telephonic request for conversion or continuation, (ii) if any payment (including any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.4A(iv) or assignment pursuant to Section 2.8 or Section 10.5B) or conversion of any of its Fixed Rate Loans occurs on a date that is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan, (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Fixed Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrowers, or (iv) as a consequence of any other default by the Borrowers in the repayment of their Fixed Rate Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement.

E. Booking of Loans. Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of that Lender.

F. Assumptions Concerning Funding of Fixed Rate Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.6 and under Section 2.7A shall be made as though that Lender had actually funded each of its relevant Fixed Rate Loans through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit or bankers acceptance, as the case may be, bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to the definition of Reserve Adjusted Eurodollar Rate or CDOR Rate, as applicable, in an amount equal to the amount of such Fixed Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and, in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Loan, through the transfer of such Eurodollar deposit from an offshore office of that Lender to a domestic office of that Lender in the United States of America; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its Fixed Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 2.6 and under Section 2.7A.

G. Fixed Rate Loans After Default. After the occurrence of and during the continuation of a Default or Event of Default, (i) the Borrowers may not elect to have a Loan be made or maintained as, or converted to, a Fixed Rate Loan after the expiration of any Interest Period then in effect for that Loan and (ii) subject to the provisions of Section 2.6D, any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by a Borrower with respect to a requested borrowing or conversion/continuation that has not yet occurred shall be deemed to be rescinded by such Borrower.

A. Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall: (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Reserve Adjusted Eurodollar Rate) or any Issuing Bank; (ii)

subject any Lender or any Issuing Bank to any Taxes (other than (A) Excluded Taxes, (B) Indemnified Taxes, (C) Other Taxes and (D) Other Connection Taxes on gross or net income, profits or receipts (including value-added or similar Taxes)) with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit, any Fixed Rate Loans made by it, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or (iii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market or the Toronto bankers acceptance market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Fixed Rate Loans hereunder made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Fixed Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligations to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then upon request of such Lender the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

B. Capital Requirements. If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Issuing Bank or the applicable Lender Office of such Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuing Office or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

C. Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 2.7A or 2.7B and delivered to the Borrowers shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case maybe, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten days after receipt thereof.

D. Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(i) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any Withholding Agent shall be required by Applicable Laws to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable by the applicable Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.7E) the Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Withholding Agent (which shall be the Administrative Agent if the Borrower is a U.S. person) shall make such deductions and (iii) the Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(ii) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (i) above, the Borrowers shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Laws.

(iii) Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Loan Parties shall indemnify the Agents, each Lender and each Issuing Bank within 20 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.7E) paid by such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate stating the amount of such payment or liability and setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation thereof delivered to the Co-Borrowers by an Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(iv) Indemnification by the Lenders and Issuing Banks. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers for the full amount of any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers in connection with any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Excluded Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this paragraph (iv) shall be paid within 20 days after the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Excluded Taxes so payable by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so payable absent manifest error.

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

(a) The Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank, if requested by a Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver documentation prescribed by Applicable Laws or the published administrative practice of a relevant Governmental Authority when reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable such Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank is subject to withholding, backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, for so long as the applicable Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(i) each Lender and Issuing Bank that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender or Issuing Bank becomes a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent) a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9;

(ii) each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: (i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party, (ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, (iii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, (iv) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the applicable Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or (v) any other form prescribed by Applicable Laws as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding Tax and reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Laws and reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent to permit the applicable Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. A Lender shall not be required to deliver any form or statement pursuant to this Section 2.7E(vi) that such Foreign Lender is not legally able to deliver;

(iii) if a payment made to a Lender or Issuing Bank under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA, such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, shall deliver to the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment; and

(iv) the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the applicable Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the applicable Borrower) on or prior to the date on which the Administrative Agent becomes the Administrative Agent under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter (i) promptly upon the obsolescence, expiration or invalidity of any form previously delivered by the Administrative Agent and (ii) upon the request of the applicable Borrower) a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8IMY (or any other form prescribed by Applicable Laws as the basis for claiming complete exemption from United States federal withholding Tax and reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower) certifying the Administrative Agent’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from United States federal withholding Tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(v) if the Administrative Agent is a U.S. branch described in Section 1.441-1(b)(2)(iv)(A) of the Treasury Regulations and delivers to the applicable Borrower a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY pursuant to Section 2.7E(vi)(b)(iv) certifying that the Administrative Agent is a U.S. branch and intends to be treated as a U.S. person for purposes of withholding under Chapter 3 of the Code, then the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat the Administrative Agent as a U.S. person for purposes of withholding under Chapter 3 of the Code, pursuant to Section 1.441-1(b)(2)(iv) of the Treasury Regulations.

(vii) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.7E (including additional amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.7E(i)), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, under this Section 2.7E with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such

refund); provided that such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, agrees to repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over to such indemnified party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

A. Designation of a Different Lender Office. If any Lender or any Issuing Bank requests compensation under Section 2.7A or 2.7B, or requires the Borrowers to pay any additional amount to any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or any Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.7E, then such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall (at the request of the Borrowers) use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lender Office or Letter of Credit Issuing Office, as applicable, for making, issuing of or for funding or maintaining its Commitments, Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.7, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender or such Issuing Bank to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender or such Issuing Bank. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or any Issuing Bank in connection with any such designation or assignment.

B. Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.7A or 2.7B, or if a Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.7E, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender has determined that it is unable to make, maintain or continue its Fixed Rate Loans in accordance with Section 2.6C hereof, then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.1), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrowers shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.1B(i)(e), (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.6D) from such Eligible Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) such Eligible Assignee is able to make, maintain or continue, as applicable, Fixed Rate Loans, (iv) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.7A or 2.7B or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.7E, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter, and (v) such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Laws. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

A. The Borrowers may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, make one or more offers (each, a “Loan Modification Offer”) to all the Lenders of one or more Classes (each Class subject to such a Loan Modification Offer, an “Affected Revolving Credit Class”) to make one or more Permitted Amendments pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrowers. Such notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the requested Permitted Amendment and (ii) the date on which such Permitted Amendment is requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days nor more than 30 Business Days after the date of such notice, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent). Permitted Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Lenders of the Affected Revolving Credit Class that accept the applicable Loan Modification Offer (such Lenders, the “Accepting Lenders”) and, in the case of any Accepting Lender, only with respect to such Lender’s Loans and Commitments of such Affected Revolving Credit Class as to which such Lender’s acceptance has been made.

B. A Permitted Amendment shall be effected pursuant to a Loan Modification Agreement executed and delivered by Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, each Borrower, each applicable Accepting Lender and the Administrative Agents; provided that no Permitted Amendment shall become effective unless Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo and each Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent such customary legal opinions, board resolutions, secretary’s certificates, officer’s certificates and other similar documents as shall be reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Loan Modification Agreement. Each Loan Modification Agreement may, without the consent of any Lender other than the applicable Accepting Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.9, including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders as a new Class of Loans and/or Commitments hereunder; provided that, except as otherwise agreed to by each Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lender, the allocation of the participation exposure with respect to any then-existing or subsequently issued or made Letter of Credit or Swing Line Loan as between the commitments of such new Class and the remaining Commitments shall be made on a ratable basis as between the commitments of such new Class and the remaining Commitments.

C. If a new Class of Loans and Commitment are created under this Section 2.9, the Borrowers shall, after such time, (x) incur and repay Revolving Loans ratably as between the new Commitments and the Commitments outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of such Loan Modification Offer and (y) permanently reduce Commitments ratably as between the new Commitments and the Commitments outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of such Loan Modification Offer; provided that on the date of effectiveness of any Loan Modification Offer, the Borrowers may permanently reduce the Commitments outstanding immediately prior to such time without ratably reducing the new Commitments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.5, the Administrative Agent is expressly permitted, without the consent of any Lender, to amend the Loan Documents to the extent necessary to give effect to any Loan Modification Offer effected pursuant to this Section 2.9 and mechanical and conforming changes necessary or advisable in connection therewith (including amendments to (i) implement the requirements in the preceding two sentences, (ii) ensure pro rata allocations of Eurodollar Rate Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans,

CDOR Rate Loans and Base Rate Loans between Loans incurred pursuant to this Section 2.9 and Loans outstanding immediately prior to any such Loan Modification Offer and (iii) implement ratable participation in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans between the new Commitments and the Commitments outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of any such Loan Modification Offer).

A. Letters of Credit. In addition to requesting that the Revolving Loan Lenders make Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.1A(i) and that the Swing Line Lender make Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.1A(ii), the Borrowers may request, in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.1, from time to time during the period after the Effective Date to but excluding the date which is thirty (30) days before the Commitment Termination Date, that an Issuing Bank issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrowers or any Subsidiary Guarantor (provided that any Letter of Credit may be for the benefit of any Subsidiary of a Co-Borrower) for general corporate purposes up to the amount of the Unused Availability at such time. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties herein set forth, such Issuing Bank agrees to issue such Letters of Credit in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.1; provided that the Borrowers shall not request that such Issuing Bank issue (and such Issuing Bank shall not issue):

(i) any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, the Total Utilization of Commitments would exceed the lesser of (x) Commitments then in effect and (y) the Availability Amount then in effect;

(ii) any Canadian Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, the aggregate Canadian Revolving Exposure would exceed the aggregate Canadian Sublimit then in effect by 5% or more;

(iii) any Letter of Credit having an expiration date later than the earlier of (a) five Business Days prior to the Commitment Termination Date and (b) the date which is 12 months from the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit; provided that the immediately preceding clause (b) shall not prevent such Issuing Bank from agreeing that a Letter of Credit will automatically be extended for one or more successive periods absent a Default or Event of Default, subject to the immediately preceding clause (a), not to exceed 12 months each unless such Issuing Bank elects not to extend for any such additional period; provided further, that unless the Requisite Lenders otherwise consent, such Issuing Bank shall give notice that it will not extend such Letter of Credit if it has knowledge that a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the last day on which such Issuing Bank may give notice to the beneficiary that it will not extend such Letter of Credit;

(iv) any Letter of Credit during any period when a Lender Default exists, unless such Issuing Bank has entered into arrangements satisfactory to it and the Borrowers to eliminate such Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to the Defaulting Lender, including by cash collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Usage (after giving effect to the issuance of the proposed Letter of Credit);

(v) any commercial Letter of Credit, unless such Issuing Bank has agreed in writing to issue commercial Letters of Credit pursuant to this Section 3.1; or

(vi) any standby Letter of Credit, unless such Issuing Bank has agreed in writing to issue standby Letters of Credit pursuant to this Section 3.1; it being understood that Credit Suisse AG has agreed to issue standby Letters of Credit requested by the Borrowers hereunder.

(i) Notice of Issuance. Whenever the Borrowers desire the issuance of a Letter of Credit, they shall deliver to the applicable Issuing Bank, at the applicable Letter of Credit Issuing Office, and the Administrative Agent, at the applicable Funding and Payment Office, a Notice of Issuance of Letter of Credit no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least five (5) Business Days, or such shorter period as may be agreed to by such Issuing Bank in any particular instance, in advance of the proposed date of issuance. The Notice of Issuance of Letter of Credit shall specify (a) the proposed date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day), (b) the face amount of or maximum aggregate liability under, as applicable, the Letter of Credit, (c) the expiration date of the Letter of Credit, (d) the name and address of the beneficiary, (e) the currency in which such Letter of Credit is to be denominated (which shall be U.S. Dollars or Canadian Dollars) and (f) the verbatim text of the proposed Letter of Credit or the proposed terms and conditions thereof, including a precise description of any documents and the verbatim text of any certificates to be presented by the beneficiary which, if presented by the beneficiary prior to the expiration date of the Letter of Credit, would require such Issuing Bank to make payment thereunder; provided that such Issuing Bank, in its reasonable discretion, may require changes in the text of the proposed Letter of Credit or any such documents or certificates; provided further that no Letter of Credit shall require payment against a conforming draft or other request for payment to be made thereunder on the same business day (under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the office of such Issuing Bank to which such draft or other request for payment is required to be presented is located) that such draft or other request for payment is presented if such presentation is made after 10:00 a.m. (in the time zone of such office of such Issuing Bank) on such Business Day. At the request of the Issuing Bank, the Borrowers shall also complete and submit such Issuing Bank’s standard letter of credit application form.

The Borrowers shall notify such Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent prior to the issuance of any Letter of Credit in the event that any of the matters to which the Borrowers are required to certify in the applicable Notice of Issuance of Letter of Credit is no longer true and correct as of the proposed date of issuance of such Letter of Credit, and upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have re-certified, as of the date of such issuance, as to the matters to which the Borrowers are required to certify in the applicable Notice of Issuance of Letter of Credit.

(ii) Issuance of Letter of Credit. Upon satisfaction or waiver (in accordance with Section 10.5) of the conditions set forth in Section 4.3, and upon prior confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the issuance of the requested Letter of Credit would not result in the violation of Section 3.1A(i) or 3.1A(ii), such Issuing Bank shall issue the requested Letter of Credit in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s standard procedures, and upon its issuance of such Letter of Credit such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such issuance, which notice shall be accompanied by a copy of such Letter of Credit.

(iii) Reports to Lenders. (a) On the first Business Day of every calendar week, so long as any Letter of Credit shall have been outstanding during such week, such Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a report setting forth for such week the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under the Letters of Credit that were outstanding during such calendar week (using, in the case of any Canadian Dollar Letters of Credit, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof calculated as of such date); and (b) on the last Business Day of every calendar month, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Revolving Loan Lender a report setting forth for such calendar month the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under the Letters of Credit that were outstanding during such calendar month (using, in the case of any Canadian Dollar Letters of Credit, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof calculated as of such date).

C. Lenders’ Purchase of Participations in Letters of Credit. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Revolving Loan Lenders, the applicable Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Loan Lender, and each Revolving Loan Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Loan Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Loan Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Revolving Loan Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any drawings honored or payments made by the Issuing Bank in respect of such Letter of Credit (each, an “LC Disbursement”) and not reimbursed by the Borrowers on the date due as provided in Section 3.3B, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrowers for any reason, in the same currency as such LC Disbursement. Each Revolving Loan Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

The Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to pay the following amounts to the Administrative Agent with respect to Letters of Credit issued by an Issuing Bank for the account of the Borrowers:

(i) with respect to each Letter of Credit, (a) a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum (but in no event less than $500 or C$500, as the case may be, per annum for each Letter of Credit outstanding) of the daily aggregate Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit, (b) a Letter of Credit fee payable to the Revolving Loan Lenders equal to the product of (x) the then Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans and (y) the average daily Stated Amount under such Letter of Credit, in each case, payable in arrears on and to the last Business Day in each of March, June, September and December of each year, commencing June 30, 2011, and on the Commitment Termination Date and computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed;

(ii) with respect to the issuance, amendment or transfer of each Letter of Credit and each drawing made thereunder (without duplication of the fees payable under clause (i) above), issuance documentary, administration and processing charges in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s standard schedule for such charges in effect at the time of such issuance, amendment, transfer or drawing, as the case may be.

Promptly upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of any amount described in clause (i)(b) of this Section 3.2, the Administrative Agent shall distribute to the applicable Issuing Bank and each other Revolving Loan Lender its Pro Rata Share of such amount. The fees described in clause (i) of this Section 3.2 shall be paid in U.S. Dollars, if in respect of U.S. Dollar Letters of Credit, or Canadian Dollars, if in respect of Canadian Dollar Letters of Credit.

A. Responsibility of Issuing Bank With Respect to Requests for Drawings and Payments. In determining whether to honor any drawing or request for payment under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the applicable Issuing Bank shall be responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit.

B. Reimbursement by the Borrowers of Amounts Drawn or Paid Under Letters of Credit. If any Issuing Bank shall make an LC Disbursement, the Borrowers shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrowers shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrowers prior to such time on such date, then not later than (i) 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day that the Borrowers receive such notice, if such notice is received prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the day on which the Borrowers receive such notice, if such notice is not received prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the day of receipt; provided that the Borrowers may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.1A(i) or 2.1A(ii) that such payment be financed with a Revolving Loan that is a Daily Rate Loan or Swing Line Loan in an equivalent amount to the LC Disbursement, and, to the extent so financed, the Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Revolving Loan or Swing Line Loan.

C. Payment by Lenders of Unpaid Drawings or Payments Under Letters of Credit.

(i) Payment by Lenders. In the event that the Borrowers shall fail for any reason to reimburse any Issuing Bank for an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 3.3B when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Loan Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrowers in respect thereof and such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Loan Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of the payment then due from the Borrowers, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.1C with respect to Revolving Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.1C shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Loan Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall

promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Loan Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Loan Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the applicable Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Loan Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of Daily Rate Loans or a Swing Line Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

(ii) Distribution to Lenders of Reimbursements. In the event any Issuing Bank shall have been reimbursed by other Revolving Loan Lenders pursuant to Section 3.3C(i) for all or any portion of any honored drawing or payment made by such Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit issued by it, such Issuing Bank shall distribute to each other Revolving Loan Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it under Section 3.3C(i) with respect to such honored drawing or payment such other Revolving Loan Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments subsequently received by such Issuing Bank from the Borrowers in reimbursement of such Unpaid Drawings when such payments are received. Any such distribution shall be made to a Revolving Loan Lender at its primary address identified to the Administrative Agent or at such other address as such Revolving Loan Lender may request.

(i) Payment of Interest. The Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to pay to each Issuing Bank, with respect to any Unpaid Drawings, interest on such amount of Unpaid Drawings from the date such drawing is honored or payment is made to but excluding the date such amount is reimbursed by the Borrowers (including any such reimbursement out of the proceeds of Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 3.3B) at a rate equal to (a) for the period from the date such drawing is honored or payment is made to and including the applicable reimbursement date (i) in the case of U.S. Dollar Letters of Credit, the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin applicable to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans and (ii) in the case of Canadian Dollar Letters of Credit, the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin applicable to Revolving Loans that are Canadian Prime Rate Loans, and (b) thereafter, a rate which is 2.00% per annum in excess of the rate of interest described in the foregoing clause (a). Interest payable pursuant to this Section 3.3D(i) shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand is made, on the date on which the related LC Disbursement is reimbursed in full.

(ii) Distribution of Interest Payments by Issuing Bank. Promptly upon receipt by any Issuing Bank of any payment of interest pursuant to Section 3.3D(i), (a) such Issuing Bank shall distribute to each other Revolving Loan Lender, out of the interest received by such Issuing Bank in respect of the period from the date of the applicable LC Disbursement to but excluding the date on which such Issuing Bank is reimbursed for the amount of such drawing or payment (including any such reimbursement out of the proceeds of Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 3.3B), the amount that such other Revolving Loan Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the Letter of Credit fee that would have been payable in respect of such Letter of Credit for such period pursuant to Section 3.2 if an LC

Disbursement had been made, and (b) in the event such Issuing Bank shall have been reimbursed by other Revolving Loan Lenders pursuant to Section 3.3C(i) for all or any portion of such LC Disbursement, such Issuing Bank shall distribute to each other Revolving Loan Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it under Section 3.3C(i) with respect to such LC Disbursement such other Revolving Loan Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any interest received by such Issuing Bank in respect of that portion of such LC Disbursement so reimbursed by other Revolving Loan Lenders for the period from the date on which such Issuing Bank was so reimbursed by other Revolving Loan Lenders to and including the date on which such portion of such LC Disbursement is reimbursed by the Borrowers.

The obligation of the Borrowers to reimburse each Issuing Bank for an LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit issued by it (which reimbursement, for the avoidance of doubt, may be made from the proceeds of Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 3.3B) and to repay any Revolving Loans made by the Revolving Loan Lenders pursuant to Section 3.3B and the obligations of the Revolving Loan Lenders under Section 3.3C(i) shall be unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following circumstances:

(ii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which any Borrower or any Revolving Loan Lender may have at any time against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing Bank or other Revolving Loan Lender or any other Person or, in the case of a Revolving Loan Lender, against any Borrower whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers or one of their respective Subsidiaries and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured);

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(iv) payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document which appears to substantially comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit;

(v) any adverse change in the business, assets, operations, properties, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries;

(vi) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any party thereto;

(vii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; or

(viii) the fact that a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

provided, in each case, that payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under the applicable Letter of Credit shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Bank under the circumstances in question (as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). In the event any Issuing Bank suffers any monetary loss as a result of a movement in Exchange Rates between the dates of any drawings, payments, reimbursements or other distributions contemplated by this Section 3, the Borrowers shall promptly reimburse the Issuing Bank for any such Exchange Rate related loss upon presentation by the Issuing Bank of a statement describing such loss in reasonable detail.

As between any Borrower and any Issuing Bank, each Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, such Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for: (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 such 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 such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason, (iii) failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit, (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, 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 such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof, (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing or payment under such Letter of Credit or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuing Bank, including any acts of any Governmental Authorities, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of such Issuing Bank’s rights or powers hereunder.

In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 3.5, any action taken or omitted by any Issuing Bank under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put such Issuing Bank under any resulting liability to the Borrowers.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.5, the Borrowers shall retain any and all rights they may have against any Issuing Bank for any liability arising solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Bank, as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

The effectiveness of this Agreement and obligations of the Lenders to make Loans to any Borrower on each Funding Date are subject to the following further conditions precedent:

A. The Administrative Agent shall have received before that Funding Date, in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.1B, an executed Notice of Borrowing, in each case signed by a Responsible Officer on behalf of each Borrower in a writing delivered to the Administrative Agent.

B. As of that Funding Date, the representations and warranties contained herein and in the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (unless qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of that Funding Date to the same extent as though made on and as of that date (and provided that with respect to the representations and warranties contained in Sections 1.01(a) and 1.01(c) of each Mortgage, such representations and warranties shall be deemed to be true and correct in all material respects as of each Funding Date so long as the representations and warranties contained in Sections 5.2A and 5.5A of this Agreement shall be true and correct in all respects as of such Funding Date), except to the extent such representations and warranties specifically relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects (unless qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of such earlier date.

C. As of that Funding Date and after giving effect to the borrowing of any Loans thereon, (i) the Total Utilization of Commitments would not exceed the lesser of (a) the Commitments then in effect or (b) the Availability Amount then in effect and (ii) the aggregate Canadian Revolving Exposure would not exceed 105% of the Canadian Sublimit then in effect.

D. No event shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from the consummation of the borrowing contemplated by such Notice of Borrowing that would constitute a Default or Event of Default.

The issuance of any Letter of Credit hereunder (whether or not the applicable Issuing Bank is obligated to issue such Letter of Credit) is subject to the satisfaction of the following additional conditions precedent:

A. On or before the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent shall have received, in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.1B(i), an executed Notice of Issuance of Letter of Credit, signed by a Responsible Officer on behalf of the Borrowers in a writing delivered to the Administrative Agent, together with all other information specified in Section 3.1B(i) and such other documents or information as the applicable Issuing Bank may reasonably require in connection with the issuance of such Letter of Credit.

B. On the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit, all conditions precedent described in Sections 4.2B and 4.2C shall be satisfied or waived to the same extent as if the issuance of such Letter of Credit were the making of a Loan and the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit were a Funding Date.

In order to induce the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans, to induce the Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit and to induce the other Lenders to purchase participations therein, each of Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings and the Co-Borrowers jointly and severally represents and warrants to each Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank, on the Effective Date, and, jointly and severally with U.S. FinCo, on the Restatement Effective Date, and on each Funding Date, and on the date of issuance of each Letter of Credit, that:

A. Corporate Status. Each of Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers and each Restricted Subsidiary (a) is a duly organized and validly existing corporation or other entity in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and has the corporate or other organizational power and authority to own its property and assets and to transact the business in which it is engaged and (b) has duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good standing in all jurisdictions where it is required to be so qualified, except where the failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

B. Corporate Power and Authority; Enforceability. Each Loan Party has the corporate or other organizational power and authority to execute, deliver and carry out the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and has taken all necessary corporate or other organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party. Each Loan Party has duly executed and delivered each Loan Document to which it is a party and each such Loan Document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or law). Each Loan Party and each of the Restricted Subsidiaries (a) is in compliance with all Applicable Laws and (b) has all requisite governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals to operate its business as currently conducted except, in each case to the extent that failure to be in compliance therewith could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

C. Subsidiaries. On the Effective Date, Holdings does not have any Subsidiaries other than the Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 5.1C. Schedule 5.1C describes the direct and indirect ownership interest of Holdings in each Subsidiary as of the Restatement Effective Date.

A. No Violation. None of (a) the execution, delivery and performance by any Loan Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and compliance with the terms and provisions thereof or (b) the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby on the relevant dates therefor, will (i)

contravene any applicable provision of any material Applicable Law of any Governmental Authority, (ii) result in any breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien upon any of the property or assets of any of Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries (other than Liens created under the Loan Documents) pursuant to, (x) the terms of any material indenture, loan agreement, lease agreement, mortgage or deed of trust or (y) any other material Contractual Obligation, in the case of either clause (x) and (y) to which Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which they or any of their property or assets is bound or (iii) violate any provision of the Organizational Documents of Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries, except with respect to any conflict, breach of contravention or default (but not creation of Liens) referred to in clause (ii)(y), to the extent that such conflict, breach, contravention or default could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

B. Governmental Approvals. No order, consent, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by, any Governmental Authority is required to authorize or is required in connection with (a) the execution, delivery and performance of any Loan Document or (b) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any Loan Document, except (i) filings necessary to perfect the Liens on the Collateral granted by the Loan Parties in favor of the Secured Parties and recordation or registration of the Mortgages, (ii) consents, approvals, exemptions, authorizations, actions, notices and filings that have been duly obtained, taken, given or made and are in full force and effect and (iii) those approvals, consents, exemptions, authorizations, actions, notices or filings described in the Security Agreement, unless, in the case of either clause (a) or clause (b), the failure to obtain or make any of the foregoing could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

C. Collateral Documents. The security interests created in favor of the Collateral Agent under the Collateral Documents constitute, as security for the obligations purported to be secured thereby, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in and perfected First Priority Lien on all of the Collateral (except Deposit Accounts with respect to perfection and priority) referred to therein in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. Each Loan Party has good title (whether in fee, as a leasehold or through a license) to its Collateral (subject to liens permitted pursuant to Section 7.2A). No consents, filings or recordings are required in order to perfect (or maintain the perfection or priority of) the security interests purported to be created by any of the Collateral Documents, other than the filing of UCC financing statements by the Collateral Agent, the periodic filing of UCC continuation statements in respect of UCC financing statements filed by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent, the recording of the Mortgages by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent and the filing of the Trademark Security Agreement with the PTO (and any periodic updates thereto required hereunder, in each case to the extent perfection can be achieved by such filings). Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood that none of the Co-Borrowers, U.S. FinCo or any Subsidiary Guarantors shall be required to enter into account control agreements to perfect the security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent in any Deposit Account or any “securities accounts” (as defined in the UCC).

D. Margin Regulations. Neither the making of any Loan hereunder nor the use of the proceeds thereof will violate the provisions of Regulation U or X of the Board.

The Historical Financial Statements present fairly in all material respects the financial position and results of operations of Holdings and its consolidated Subsidiaries at the respective dates of such information and for the respective periods covered thereby, subject, in the case of the unaudited financial information, to changes resulting from audit, normal year end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes. Such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied except to the extent provided in the notes thereto. As of the Effective Date, none of Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, the Co-Borrowers or any Restricted Subsidiary has any Indebtedness or other material obligations or liabilities, direct or contingent (other than (i) the liabilities reflected on Schedule 7.1A, (ii) obligations arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iii) liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business and (iv) liabilities under the Unsecured Facility Loan Documents) that, either individually or in the aggregate, have had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

C. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (I) if the Collateral Agent determines in its reasonable discretion that the cost of creating or perfecting any Lien on any property is excessive in relation to the benefits afforded to the Lenders thereby, then such property may be excluded from the Collateral for all purposes of the Loan Documents, (II) in the event that the Collateral Agent forecloses upon any Mortgaged Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Collateral Documents and the applicable Mortgage, the Collateral Agent shall honor any contracts of sale with any bona fide third party purchaser then existing for the purchase of such Mortgaged Property, so long as such sale would be permitted under this Agreement if it were made by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, or (III) if any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder (1) is Disposed of in a transaction permitted by this Agreement to a Person other than a Co-Borrower or a Guarantor (or a Person that would be required to become a Guarantor), (2) ceases, at any time, to qualify as a Subsidiary of Holdings (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) or (3) is designated as an Excluded Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then, upon the request of the U.S. Borrower or U.S. FinCo, as applicable, the Administrative Agent shall, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists or would result therefrom, release such Subsidiary from its Guarantee pursuant to a release in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Co-Borrowers.

Further, each of the Lenders and the Collateral Agent hereby agrees that, as and when the U.S. Borrower or any Subsidiary of the U.S. Borrower, from time to time, notifies the Collateral Agent of its intention, in connection with the development or marketing of any Mortgaged Property, to form or enter into any homeowner, condominium or similar association with respect to any Mortgaged Property, file any modification to any plat that has been filed in respect of any Mortgaged Property or take any other action in the ordinary course of a Real Estate Business in connection with the development of any Mortgaged Property, and the consent or acknowledgment of the Collateral Agent, as the holder of a Mortgage or as beneficiary of a deed of trust encumbering such Mortgaged Property, is required under Applicable Law or under any condominium declaration, declaration of covenants, conditions and restrictions or other Liens permitted under the Loan Documents in connection therewith (in each case, other than a request for subordination which is the subject of the immediately prior paragraph), then the Collateral Agent shall deliver its written consent or acknowledgment thereto or any other instrument reasonably necessary or appropriate to consummate the actions contemplated above (and in recordable form, if so requested) as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of the notice from the U.S. Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Each of the Lenders hereby consents to the execution and delivery of such consent as set forth above without the necessity of further action or consent on its part.

(i) Consolidated Total Capitalization and Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA shall each be increased, solely for the purpose of measuring such Financial Performance Covenants and not for any other purpose under this Agreement, by an amount equal to the Cure Amount; and

(ii) if, after giving effect to the foregoing recalculations, the Co-Borrowers shall then be in compliance with the requirements of such Financial Performance Covenants, the Co-Borrowers shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of such Financial Performance Covenants as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of such Financial Performance Covenants that had occurred shall be deemed cured for purposes of this Agreement.

B. Limitation on Exercise of Cure Right.

C. Notice of Intent to Cure. Upon receipt of a Notice of Intent to Cure prior to the expiration of the Cure Right Expiration Date, the Lenders shall not be permitted to terminate the Commitments or accelerate Loans held by them or to exercise remedies against the Collateral solely on the basis of a failure to comply with the requirements of the Financial Performance Covenants in respect of the Fiscal Quarter for which the Notice of Intent to Cure has been delivered unless such failure is not cured pursuant to a Cure Right on or prior to the Cure Right Expiration Date (it being understood that any Default or Event of Default that shall have occurred as a result of the failure to comply with such covenants shall exist for all other purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents until such Cure Right is exercised).

A. Appointment Authority. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints Credit Suisse AG as the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes Credit Suisse AG, in such capacities, to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to Credit Suisse AG, in such capacities, by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Agent agrees to act upon the express conditions contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as applicable. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, each Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries. The provisions of this Section 9 are solely for the benefit of the Agents, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers and their Subsidiaries shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

B. Appointment of Supplemental Collateral Agents. It is the purpose of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that there shall be no violation of any law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as agent or trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and in particular in case of the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or in case the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent deems that by reason of any present or future law of any jurisdiction the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may not exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies granted herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or take any other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, it may be necessary that the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent appoint an additional individual or institution as a separate trustee, co-trustee, collateral agent or collateral co-agent (any such additional individual or institution being referred to herein individually as a “Supplemental Collateral Agent” and collectively as “Supplemental Collateral Agents”).

In the event that the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent appoints a Supplemental Collateral Agent with respect to any Collateral, (i) each and every right, power, privilege or duty

expressed or intended by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent with respect to such Collateral shall be exercisable by and vest in such Supplemental Collateral Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such Supplemental Collateral Agent to exercise such rights, powers and privileges with respect to such Collateral and to perform such duties with respect to such Collateral, and every covenant and obligation contained in the Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by such Supplemental Collateral Agent shall run to and be enforceable by either the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent or such Supplemental Collateral Agent, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 9 and of Section 10.2 that refer to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall inure to the benefit of such Supplemental Collateral Agent and all references therein to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent and/or such Supplemental Collateral Agent, as the context may require.

Should any instrument in writing from Holdings, any of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party be required by any Supplemental Collateral Agent so appointed by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to him or it such rights, powers, privileges and duties, Holdings and the Borrowers shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent. In case any Supplemental Collateral Agent, or a successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Collateral Agent, to the extent permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Collateral Agent.

Each Person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Persons serving as the Agents hereunder in their individual capacity. Such Persons and their Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Affiliates as if such Persons were not Agents hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

The Agents shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents (i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Agents are required to exercise as directed in writing by the Requisite Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary or believed by the Agents in good faith to be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.5); provided that no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any

Loan Document or Applicable Laws, and (iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Holdings, any of the Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as an Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. No Agent shall be liable to the Lenders for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Requisite Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.5) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by a Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Bank. The Agents shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 4 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agents.

The Agents shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, posting or other distribution) believed by it in good faith to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Agents also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it in good faith to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of any Loan or issuance of any Letter of Credit that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, the Agents may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Agents shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Agents may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Holdings, any Borrower or their respective Affiliates), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent. The Agents and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of Section 9.3 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of such Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as such Agent.

A. Resignation of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, Holdings and the Borrowers. Additionally, if the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender, then the Administrative Agent may be removed by the Requisite Lenders or the Co-Borrowers. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right, with the written consent of Holdings and the Co-Borrowers if no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, which shall be a bank with an office in New York or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in New York. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 10 days after the retiring Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, with the written consent of Holdings and the Co-Borrowers if no Event of Default under Section 8.1 or 8.5 shall have occurred and be continuing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall notify Holdings, the Co-Borrowers and the Lenders that no such successor is willing to accept such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall instead be made by or to each Lender or each Issuing Bank directly, until such time as the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, and the retiring Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents. The fees payable by Holdings and the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Holdings, the Borrowers and such successor. After the retiring applicable Administrative Agent’s and/or Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 9 and Section 10.2 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken, by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, was acting in such capacity.

B. Successor Swing Line Lender. Any resignation of the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.6A shall also constitute the resignation of Credit Suisse AG or its successor as the Swing Line Lender, and any successor Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to Section 9.6A shall, upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Swing Line Lender for all purposes hereunder. In such event (i) the Borrowers shall prepay any outstanding Swing Line Loans made by the retiring Administrative Agent in its capacity as Swing Line Lender, (ii) upon such prepayment, the retiring Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender shall surrender the Swing Line Note held

by it to the Borrowers for cancellation, and (iii) the Borrowers shall issue a new Swing Line Note to the successor Administrative Agent and Swing Line Lender in the principal amount of the Swing Line Loan Commitment then in effect and with other appropriate insertions.

Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby further authorizes the Collateral Agent to enter into each Collateral Document as secured party on behalf of and for the benefit of the Lenders, each Issuing Bank and the other beneficiaries named therein and agrees to be bound by the terms of each Collateral Document; provided that the Collateral Agent shall not enter into or consent to any amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision contained in any Collateral Document without the prior consent of the Requisite Lenders (or, if required pursuant to Section 10.5, all the Lenders); provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender (without requirement of notice to or consent of any Lender except as expressly required by Section 10.5) to execute any documents or instruments, and to take any other action requested by the Co-Borrowers having the effect of releasing any asset constituting Collateral from the Lien of the applicable Collateral Document or releasing any Guaranty of any Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case to the extent necessary to permit consummation of any transaction not prohibited by any Loan Document or that has been consented to in accordance with Section 10.5. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, each Lender agrees that no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral under any Collateral Document, it being understood and agreed that all rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and the other beneficiaries named therein in accordance with the terms thereof. In the event the Co-Borrowers or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs Refinanced Unsecured Facility Indebtedness that is secured by a Lien otherwise permitted by Section 7.2A(viii), (i) each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to enter into an Intercreditor Agreement on its behalf and agrees to be bound by the provisions of such Intercreditor Agreement as though a party thereto, and (ii) the Collateral Agent agrees to promptly enter into any such Intercreditor Agreement that complies with the proviso in Section 7.2A(viii).

Each Lender and each Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

To the extent that any Lender is identified in this Agreement as a Joint Lead Arranger or Joint Bookrunner, such Lender shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Lenders shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender.

A. Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that none of Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo or any Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender and the Administrative Agent and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.1B, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.1D or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.1F (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 10.1D and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(i) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans and participations in the Letters of Credit at the time owing to it); provided that

(a) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment, Loans and participations in the Letters of Credit at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment, Loans or Letters of Credit subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $2,500,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; provided, that two or more related Approved Funds will be treated as one assignee for purposes of determining compliance with the minimum assignment amount;

(b) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Commitments, Loans or participations in Letters of Credit assigned;

(c) any assignment of a Commitment must be consented to by the Co-Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender and each Issuing

Bank (in each case, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided, that the consent of the Co-Borrowers shall not be required (i) if such assignment is made to another Revolving Loan Lender or an Affiliate of a Revolving Loan Lender or (ii) during the continuance of an Event of Default; provided, further, that such consent of the Co-Borrowers shall be deemed to have been given if the Co-Borrowers have not responded within ten Business Days of their receipt of a request for such consent;

(d) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment Agreement and shall pay to the Administrative Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent); provided, that only one such fee shall be payable in the case of concurrent assignments to Persons that, after giving effect to such assignments, will be Approved Funds or concurrent assignments by Approved Funds to one assignee; and

(e) the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and if required, applicable tax forms.

(ii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.1C, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment Agreement, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.7 and 10.2 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. An Eligible Assignee shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.7 than the assigning Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the Loan or portion of the Loan assigned to such Eligible Assignee, unless the grant to such Eligible Assignee is made with the Co-Borrowers’ prior written consent. Except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.1D.

C. Acceptance by Administrative Agent; Recordation in the Register. Upon its receipt of an Assignment Agreement executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee representing that it is an Eligible Assignee, together with the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 10.1B(i)(d) and any forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters that such assignee may be required to deliver to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.7E(vi), the Administrative Agent shall, if the Administrative Agent and Co-Borrowers have consented to the assignment evidenced thereby (in each case to the extent such consent is required pursuant to Section 10.1B(i)), (a) accept such Assignment Agreement by executing a counterpart thereof as provided therein (which acceptance shall evidence any required

consent of the Administrative Agent to such assignment) and (b) record the information contained therein in a register maintained by the Administrative Agent, solely for this purpose as agent of the Co-Borrowers, for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The Administrative Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to and accepted by it as provided in this Section 10.1C. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 10.1C. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Co-Borrowers, each Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

D. Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower or any Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Affiliates) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that

(ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and

(iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any action (i) effecting the extension of the final maturity, the scheduled amortization or the date fixed for the payment of interest or fees with respect to the Loan allocated to such participation, (ii) effecting a reduction of the principal amount of or affecting the rate of interest payable on any Loan or any fee allocated to such participation, (iii) releasing all or substantially all of the Collateral, or (iv) releasing all or substantially all the value of the Guaranty. Subject to Section 10.1E, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.7 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.1B; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.8 as though it were a Lender. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.3 as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 10.4 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided, however, that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of

credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in “registered form” under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

E. Limitations Upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.7 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrowers’ prior written consent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.7E with respect to U.S. withholding tax unless the Borrowers are notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.7E(vi) as though it were a Lender.

F. Certain Pledges. Any Lender may, without the consent of the Administrative Agent or any Borrower, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender that is a Fund, without the consent of the Administrative Agent or any Borrower, may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Notes, if any, held by it to the trustee or other representative for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities; provided that unless and until such trustee or other representative actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 10.1, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under this Agreement and (ii) such trustee or other representative shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under this Agreement and the Notes even though such trustee or other representative may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise.

G. Affiliated Lenders. None of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (including the Sponsors) may acquire by assignment, participation or otherwise any right or interest in any of the Commitments hereunder (and any such attempted acquisition shall be null and void).

H. Defaulting Lenders, etc. In the event that any Revolving Loan Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender or S&P, Moody’s or Thompson’s BankWatch (or InsuranceWatch Ratings Service, in the case of Lenders that are insurance companies (or Best’s Insurance Reports, if such insurance company is not rated by Insurance Watch Ratings Service)) shall, after the date that any Lender becomes a Revolving Loan Lender, downgrade the long-term certificate deposit ratings of such Lender, and the resulting ratings shall be below BBB-, Baa3 and C (or BB, in the case of a Lender that is an insurance company (or B, in the case of an insurance company not rated by InsuranceWatch Ratings Service)) (or, with respect to any Revolving Loan Lender that is not rated by any such ratings service or provider, an Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender shall have reasonably determined that there has occurred a material adverse change in the financial condition of any such Lender, or a material impairment of the ability of any such Lender to perform its obligations hereunder, as compared to such condition or ability as of the date that any such Lender became a Revolving Loan Lender) then each of the Issuing Banks and the Swing Line Lender shall

have the right, but not the obligation, at its own expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, to replace such Lender with an assignee (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in paragraph B above), and such Lender hereby agrees to transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in paragraph B above) all its interests, rights and obligations in respect of its Commitment to such assignee; provided, however, that (i) no such assignment shall conflict with any Applicable Law and (ii) the Issuing Banks, the Swing Line Lender or such assignee, as the case may be, shall pay to such Lender in immediately available funds on the date of such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the Loans made by such Lender hereunder and all other amounts accrued for such Lender’s account or owed to it hereunder.

I. Certain Taxes. Any Other Taxes imposed in respect of an assignment or participation (other than an assignment pursuant to Section 2.8B) shall be the responsibility of either the assigning Lender or the assignee in the case of an assignment or the Lender or the Participant in the case of a participation but, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be the responsibility of the Co-Borrowers.

A. Costs and Expenses. Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo and each Borrower shall, jointly and severally, pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, including their respective Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for such Persons, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated); (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder; and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section 10.2A, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

B. Indemnification. Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo and each Borrower shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Arrangers, each Agent (and any sub-Agent thereof), each Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Lender, each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel for all Indemnitees taken as a whole in each relevant jurisdiction, and solely in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each jurisdiction relevant to each group of affected Indemnitees similarly situated, taken as a whole) incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement

or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions, (ii) any Loan, Letter of Credit or use of the proceeds therefrom by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Claim or Environmental Liability related in any way to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto or whether such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding is brought by a third party or by Holdings or any Borrower or any of their Affiliates; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (A) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnitee or its Related Parties, (B) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have arisen from a material breach of the obligations of such Indemnitee or its Related Parties under the Loan Documents, (C) arise from disputes solely among the Indemnitees other than claims against an Indemnitee in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as an Administrative Agent, Arranger or other similar role under this Agreement and other than claims arising out of any act or omission of the Co-Borrowers or any of their affiliates or (D) are solely indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages.

C. Reimbursement by the Lenders. To the extent that Holdings or any Borrower fails to pay any amount required under Section 10.2A or 10.2B to be paid by it to any Agent (or any sub-Agent thereof), any Issuing Bank or any Related Party of any of the foregoing (and without limiting their obligation to do so), each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agent (or any such sub-Agent), any Issuing Bank or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Agent (or any such sub-Agent) or such Issuing Bank in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for such Agent (or any such sub-Agent) or such Issuing Bank in connection with such capacity; provided further that to the extent any Issuing Bank is entitled to indemnification under Section 10.2A or 10.2B, the indemnification provided for in this Section 10.2C will be the obligation solely of the Revolving Loan Lenders. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 10.2C are subject to the provisions of Section 10.12.

D. Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, no party hereto shall assert, and they each hereby waive, any claim against all other parties hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that nothing contained in this Section 10.2D shall limit the indemnity and reimbursements obligations set forth in Section 10.2B hereof. No Indemnitee referred to in Section 10.2B above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, unless such damages are directly caused by the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment.

E. Payments. All amounts due under this Section 10.2 shall be payable promptly after demand therefor.

Without limitation of any other rights of the Agents, the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Agent, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, upon any Obligation becoming due and payable hereunder to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Agent, Lender, Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all of such Obligations, irrespective of whether or not such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations are owed to a branch or office of such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Agent, Lender, Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section 10.3 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Agent, Lender, Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Agent, Lender and Issuing Bank agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its Pro Rata Share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify each Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, to the end that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by Holdings or any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or Participant, other than to Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each of Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo and the Borrowers consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each of Holdings and the

Borrowers rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of Holdings or any Borrower, as the case may be, in the amount of such participation.

A. Amendment and Waivers. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or of the Notes, or consent to any departure by any Co-Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of the Requisite Lenders; provided that any such amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent which: (a) reduces or forgives the principal amount of any of the Loans; (b) reduces the percentage specified in the definition of the “Requisite Lenders” or “Requisite Class Lender” (it being understood that, with the consent of the Requisite Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the definition of the “Requisite Lenders” on substantially the same basis as the Commitments are included on the Effective Date); (c) changes in any manner any provision of this Agreement which, by its terms, expressly requires the approval or concurrence of all the Lenders; (d) postpones the scheduled final maturity date of any of the Loans; (e) postpones the date or reduces the amount of any scheduled payment (but not prepayment) of principal of any of the Loans or of any scheduled reduction or termination of the Commitments; (f) postpones the date on which any interest or any fees are payable; (g) decreases the interest rate borne by any of the Loans (other than any waiver of any increase in the interest rate applicable to any of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.2E) or the amount of any fees payable hereunder; it being understood that any amendment to the definition of “Capitalization Ratio” will not constitute a reduction in the Facility Fee for purpose of this clause (g); (h) increases the maximum duration of Interest Periods permitted hereunder; (i) releases all or substantially all of the Collateral; (j) releases of all or substantially all the value of the Guaranty; (k) amends the definition of “Pro Rata Shares”; or (l) changes in any manner the provisions contained in Sections 2.4B, 2.4C(iii), 8.1 or 10.4, or this Section 10.5 shall be effective only if evidenced by a writing signed by or on behalf of all the Lenders to whom Obligations are owed or who have Commitments outstanding being directly affected by such amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent (the consent of the Requisite Lenders not being required for any such change); provided further that any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent which amends or modifies the definition of “Approved Fund,” “Eligible Assignee,” or “Fund,” or Section 10.1 to the extent further restricting assignments, shall be effective only if evidenced by a written consent of the Requisite Lenders and the Administrative Agent. In addition, (i) [reserved], (ii) no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of any Note shall be effective without the written concurrence of the Lender which is the holder of that Note, (iii) no increase in the Commitments of any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect shall be effective without the written concurrence of that Lender, it being understood and agreed that in no event shall waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults, Events of Default or of a mandatory prepayment or a reduction of any or all of the Commitments be deemed to constitute an increase of the Commitment of any Lender and that an increase in the available portion of any Commitment of any Lender shall not be deemed to constitute an increase in the Commitment of such Lender, (iv) no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of Section 2.1A(ii) or any other provision of this Agreement relating to the Swing Line Loan Commitment or the Swing Line Loans shall be effective without the written consent of the Swing Line Lender, (v) no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of Section 3 or any other provision of this Agreement relating to the rights or obligations of an Issuing Bank shall be effective without the written concurrence of such Issuing Bank, (vi) no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of Section 9 or of any other provision of this

Agreement which, by its terms, expressly requires the approval or concurrence of the Administrative Agent shall be effective without the written concurrence of the Administrative Agent and (vii) no amendment or modification of the First-Out Provisions shall be effective without the consent of all Lenders. The Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of that Lender and no amendment, modification, termination or waiver which has the effect of changing any payment, voluntary or mandatory prepayments or Commitment reductions applicable to any Class (the “Affected Class”) in a manner that disproportionately disadvantages such Class relative to the other Class shall be effective without the written concurrence of the Requisite Class Lenders of the Affected Class (it being understood and agreed that any amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any such provision which only postpones or reduces any voluntary or mandatory prepayment or Commitment reduction from those set forth in Section 2.4 with respect to one Class but not the other Classes shall be deemed to disproportionately disadvantage such one Class but not to disproportionately disadvantage such other Classes for purposes of this clause). Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on the Borrowers in any case shall entitle the Borrowers to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 10.5 shall be binding upon each Lender at the time outstanding, each future Lender and, if signed by the Borrowers, on the Borrowers and Holdings.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10.5A to the contrary, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended (or amended and restated) (i) with the written approval of the Administrative Agent, Holdings and the lenders of the additional Commitments incurred pursuant to Section 2.1A(iii) to implement the additional Commitments incurred pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.1A(iii) or (ii) with the written approval of the Administrative Agent, Holdings and the Accepting Lenders to implement any Loan Modification Offer that becomes effective pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.9.

B. Non-Consenting Lenders. Each Lender grants (x) to the Administrative Agent the right to purchase all (but not less than all) of such Lender’s Commitments and Loans owing to it and the Notes held by it and all of its rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (y) to the Borrowers the right to cause an assignment of all (but not less than all) of such Lender’s Commitments and Loans owing to it, its participations in the Notes held by it and all of its rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to Eligible Assignees, which right may be exercised by the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers, as the case may be, if such Lender (a “Non-Consenting Lender”) refuses to execute any amendment, waiver or consent which requires the written consent of Lenders other than Requisite Lenders (including such Non-Consenting Lender) and to which Requisite Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers have otherwise agreed; provided that (i) the Administrative Agent shall waive, or the Borrowers or the Eligible Assignee shall pay, as the case may be, any required assignment fee, and such Non-Consenting Lender shall receive, in connection with such assignments, payment equal to the aggregate amount of outstanding Loans owed to such Lender (together with all accrued and unpaid interest, fees and other amounts (other than contingent indemnity obligations not then due and payable), including amounts owed under Section 2.6D, owed to such Lender); and (ii) no such assignment shall conflict with any Applicable Law. Each Lender agrees that if the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers, as the case may be, exercise their option hereunder, they shall promptly execute and deliver all agreements and documentation necessary to effectuate such assignment as set forth in Section 10.1. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and

deliver such agreement and documentation on behalf of such Non-Consenting Lender and any such agreement and/or documentation so executed by the Administrative Agent shall be effective for purposes of documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 10.1.

All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another such covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

A. Notices Generally. Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone (and except as provided in Section 10.7B below), all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail or sent by facsimile as follows: (i) if to any Borrower, Holdings or any Subsidiary of Holdings, to the U.S. Borrower at 4900 N.

Notices delivered through electronic communications, to the extent provided in Section 10.7B below, shall be effective as provided in said Section 10.7B.

B. Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or any Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.1 and Section 3, as the case may be, if such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Section by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or each Borrower may, in their discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to them hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgment from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgment); provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

C. Change of Address, Etc. Any party hereto may change its address or facsimile number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto.

A. All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans and the issuance of the Letters of Credit hereunder.

B. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of Holdings and each Borrower set forth in Sections 2.6D, 2.7, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.18 and the agreements of the Lenders set forth in Sections 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 10.2C, 10.3, 10.4 and 10.19 shall survive the payment of the Loans, the cancellation or expiration of the Letters of Credit and the reimbursement of any amounts drawn or paid thereunder, and the termination of this Agreement.

No failure or delay on the part of any Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

Neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Borrower or any other Loan Party makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders (or to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders), or any Agent or the Lenders enforce any security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state, provincial or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement or the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

The obligations of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereunder are several and no Lender or Issuing Bank shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitments of any other Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document, and no action taken by the Lenders and the Issuing Banks pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders and the Issuing Banks as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender and each Issuing Bank shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender and each Issuing Bank shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender or other Issuing Bank to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

A. It is the intention of Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo the Borrowers, each Issuing Bank and the Lenders to conform strictly to the usury and similar laws relating to interest from time to time in force (including the relevant provisions of the Criminal Code (Canada)), and all agreements between the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries and the Lenders and Issuing Bank, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether oral or written, are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by acceleration of maturity hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid in the aggregate to the Lenders as interest (whether or not designated as interest, and including any amount otherwise designated but deemed to constitute interest by a court of competent jurisdiction) hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or in any other agreement given to secure the Indebtedness or obligations of the Borrowers to the Lenders, or in any other document evidencing, securing or pertaining to the Indebtedness evidenced hereby, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable usury or such other laws (the “Maximum Amount”). If under any circumstances whatsoever fulfillment of any provision hereof, or any of the other Loan Documents, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve exceeding the Maximum Amount, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the Maximum Amount (in the case of any such reduction for the purpose of complying with the Criminal Code (Canada), first by reducing the amount or rate of interest and second by reducing any fees, commissions, costs, expenses, premiums and other amounts which would constitute “interest” for purposes of section 347 thereof). For the purposes of calculating the actual amount of interest paid and/or payable hereunder in respect of laws pertaining to usury or such other laws, all sums paid or agreed to be paid to the holder hereof for the use, forbearance or detention of the Indebtedness of the Borrowers evidenced hereby, outstanding from time to time shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be amortized, pro-rated, allocated and spread from the date of disbursement of the proceeds of the Notes until payment in full of all of such Indebtedness, so that the actual rate of interest on account of such Indebtedness is uniform through the term hereof. The terms and provisions of this Section shall control and supersede every other provision of all agreements between the Borrowers or any endorser of the Notes and the Lenders and Issuing Bank.

B. If under any circumstances any Lender or Issuing Bank shall ever receive an amount which would exceed the Maximum Amount, such amount shall be treated as a voluntary prepayment under Section 2.4A(i) and shall be so applied in accordance with Section 2.4, hereof or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of the Loans and any other Indebtedness of any Borrower in favor of such Lender or Issuing Bank, the excess shall be deemed to have been a payment made by mistake and shall be refunded to the Borrowers.

Section and Section headings in this Agreement are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors and assigns of the Lenders (it being understood that the Lenders’ rights of assignment are subject to Section 10.1). None of Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo or any Borrower’s rights or obligations hereunder or any interest therein may be assigned or delegated by Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo or any Borrower without the prior written consent of all Lenders.

EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ONLY IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT (EXCEPT THAT, (X) IN THE CASE OF ANY MORTGAGE OR OTHER SECURITY DOCUMENT, PROCEEDINGS MAY ALSO BE BROUGHT BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR COLLATERAL AGENT IN THE STATE IN WHICH THE RESPECTIVE MORTGAGED PROPERTY OR COLLATERAL IS LOCATED OR ANY OTHER RELEVANT JURISDICTION AND (Y) IN THE CASE OF ANY BANKRUPTCY, INSOLVENCY OR SIMILAR PROCEEDINGS WITH RESPECT TO ANY CREDIT PARTY, ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS MAY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH COURT HOLDING SUCH BANKRUPTCY, INSOLVENCY OR SIMILAR PROCEEDINGS). EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN

DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT ANY AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY ISSUING BANK MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST HOLDINGS, CANADA HOLDINGS, U.S. HOLDINGS, CANADA INTERMEDIATE HOLDINGS, U.S. FINCO, A CO-BORROWER OR THEIR RESPECTIVE PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON PARTY HERETO HAS REPRESENTED TO SUCH PARTY, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Each of the Agents, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to it, its Affiliates’ and their respective partners, directors, officers, employees, advisors, representatives and numbering, administration and settlement service providers (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential as provided herein), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of

Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by Applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.19, to (i) any assignee or pledgee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee or pledgee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers and their respective obligations, (g) with the consent of the Co-Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Loan Party or its Affiliates; provided that to the extent any Agent or Lender discloses Information pursuant to any provision of this Section 10.19, it shall (v) use good faith efforts to do so in such a manner as would be reasonably likely to maintain the confidentiality thereof, and (w) in the case of disclosures outside the ordinary course pursuant to clauses (b) or (c) above, to the extent practicable (following the exercise of commercially reasonable efforts) and not prohibited by Applicable Law, notify the Co-Borrowers of such proposed disclosure as far in advance of such disclosure as practicable and, at the request of the Co-Borrowers and the expense of such Agent or Lender, use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any Information so disclosed is accorded confidential treatment.

For purposes of this Section 10.19, “Information” means all written information received from Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates relating to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, which to the extent received on or after the Effective Date, is identified as confidential by the Co-Borrowers or Holdings. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 10.19 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Each Lender acknowledges that Information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement may include material non-public information concerning the Loan Parties and their respective Related Parties or their respective securities, and confirms that it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and that it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with those procedures and Applicable Law, including Federal and state securities laws.

All Information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by Holdings, the Co-Borrowers or the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement will be syndicate-level Information, which may contain material non-public information about the Loan Parties and their respective Related Parties or their respective securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to Holdings, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent that it has identified in its Administrative Questionnaire a credit contact who may receive Information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and Applicable Law.

A. Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall become effective as provided in the Amendment Agreement.

B. Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any Applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

The following notification is provided to the Loan Parties pursuant to Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act:

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or entity that opens an account, including any deposit account, treasury management account, loan, other extension of credit, or other financial services product.

What this means for any Loan Party: When a Loan Party opens an account, if the Loan Party is an individual, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders will ask for the Loan Party’s name, residential address, tax identification number, date of birth, and other information that will allow the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders to identify the Loan Party, and, if the Loan Party is not an individual, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders will ask for the Loan Party’s name, tax identification number, business address, and other information that will allow the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders to identify the Loan Party. The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may also ask, if the Loan Party is an individual, to see the Loan Party’s driver’s license or other identifying documents, and, if the Loan Party is not an individual, to see the Loan Party’s legal organizational documents or other identifying documents.

The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may also be required to obtain, verify and record similar information under other applicable anti-money laundering laws, rules and regulations, including the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (Canada).

Each of Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, the Canadian Borrower, U.S. FinCo and the other Loan Parties appoints the U.S. Borrower as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including the giving and receipt of notices and the execution and delivery of all documents, instruments and certificates contemplated herein and therein and all modifications hereto and thereto.

In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby, Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo and each of the Borrowers acknowledge and agree that: (a) the extensions of credit provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) are an arm’s-length commercial transaction between Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers and the other Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agents, the Arrangers and the Lenders, on the other hand, and Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers and the other Loan Parties are capable of evaluating and understanding and understand and accept the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or thereof); (b) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, each Agent, each Arranger and each Lender is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for any of Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other person; (c) none of the Agents, any Arranger or any Lender has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers or any other Loan Party with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, including with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document (irrespective of whether any Agent, any Arranger or any Lender has advised or is currently advising Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers or any other Loan Party or their respective Affiliates on other matters) and none of the Agents, any Arranger or any Lender has any obligation to any of Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers, the other Loan Parties or their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (d) the Agents, the Arrangers, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers and the other Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, and none of the Agents, any Arranger or any Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (e) the Agents, the Arrangers and the Lenders have not provided and will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers and the other Loan Parties have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they deemed appropriate. Holdings, U.S. Holdings, Canada Holdings, Canada Intermediate Holdings, U.S. FinCo, the Co-Borrowers,

the other Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates each hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it may have against the Agents, the Arrangers and the Lenders with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty.

The obligations of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to make payments in Dollars or in Canadian Dollars, as the case may be (each, an “Obligation Currency”) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the applicable Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Administrative Agent or an Issuing Bank of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Borrower or any other Loan Party or in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the applicable Obligation Currency (such currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the applicable Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, as the case may be, at the Canadian Dollar Equivalent or U.S. Dollar Equivalent determined, in each case, as of the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Rate”).

If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Borrowers covenant and agree to pay, or cause to be paid, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any judgment, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the applicable Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

For purposes of determining the Canadian Dollar Equivalent or U.S. Dollar Equivalent or rate of exchange for this Section 10.24, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the applicable Obligation Currency.

A. Each Co-Borrower may designate any of its wholly-owned Restricted Subsidiaries organized under the laws of the United States, Canada or any state or province thereof as a Borrower under the Commitments; provided that the Administrative Agent shall have received, at least five Business Days prior to the date on which such Person is proposed to become a Borrower hereunder, all documentation and other information required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including to the extent applicable, the USA PATRIOT Act and the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (Canada). Upon the receipt by the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit XII annexed hereto executed by such Subsidiary of a Co-Borrower such Subsidiary shall become a Borrower and a party to this Agreement. A Person shall cease to be a Borrower hereunder at such time as no Loans, fees or any other amounts due in connection therewith pursuant to the terms hereof shall be outstanding by such Person, no Letters of Credit issued for the

account of such Person shall be outstanding and such Person and its parent Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination in substantially the form of Exhibit XIII annexed hereto.

B. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Person shall be added as a Borrower hereunder pursuant to this Section 10.25 unless (i) on the effective date of such addition, the conditions set forth in Section 4 shall be satisfied and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Responsible Officer of the applicable potential Borrower or Borrowers and (ii) except as otherwise specified in the applicable Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and other closing certificates reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and consistent with those delivered on the Effective Date.
