SECTION 3.

COMMITMENTS.

A. Amendment of Tranche B Domestic Lenders and Tranche B Canadian Lenders. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement (including, without limitation subsection 2.1A(iii) and 2.1A(iv) thereof, as the case may be), each Consenting Tranche B Lender and New Tranche B Lender listed on Schedule 2.1 annexed hereto severally agrees to lend the relevant Borrower or Borrowers from time to time during the period from the Second Amendment Effective Date to the Tranche B Revolving Termination Date as extended hereby an aggregate amount, not exceeding such Consenting Tranche B Lender’s and New Tranche B Lender’s Tranche B Domestic Pro Rata Share and/or Tranche B Canadian Pro

Rata Share, as applicable, of the aggregate amount of the Tranche B Domestic Commitments of $1,050,000,000 and/or Tranche B Canadian Commitments of $100,000,000. The portion of Schedule 2.1 of the Credit Agreement relating to the Tranche B Domestic Commitments of Domestic Lenders and the Tranche B Canadian Commitments of Canadian Lenders is hereby amended and restated in the form attached hereto as Schedule 2.1.

In addition, each New Tranche B Lender further agrees to assume the obligations of a Tranche B Domestic Lender and/or a Tranche B Canadian Lender, as applicable, pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement as amended by this Second Amendment, together with all of the rights and obligations of a Tranche B Domestic Lender and/or Tranche B Canadian Lender, as applicable, under the Loan Documents.

B. Adjustment of Outstanding Loans and Acceptance. To the extent that any Tranche B Domestic Loans and/or Tranche B Canadian Loans are or will be outstanding as of the current Tranche B Revolving Termination Date before giving effect to this Second Amendment (the “Termination Date”), Deutsche Bank, as Administrative Agent, will notify each Tranche B Domestic Lender and Tranche B Canadian Lender, as the case may be, not later than the Business Day prior to the Termination Date of the amount, if any, that it will be required to advance, such that after giving effect to such advances and disbursements, the outstanding Tranche B Domestic Loans and Tranche B Canadian Loans of each Consenting Tranche B Lender and New Tranche B Lender will correspond with its respective Tranche B Domestic Pro Rata Share and/or Tranche B Canadian Pro Rata Share, as the case may be. Each such Lender shall make the amount of its advance available to the Administrative Agent in same day funds and the applicable currency (whether Dollars or Canadian Dollars), at the Domestic Funding and Payment Office and/or the Canadian Funding and Payment Office, as applicable, in either case not later than 1:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the Termination Date. The proceeds of such advances shall be immediately delivered to the Declining Tranche B Lenders and the Reducing Tranche B Lenders (and not to any Borrower) and applied to repay any outstanding Loans of the Declining Tranche B Lenders and such portion of any outstanding Loans of the Reducing Tranche B Lenders such that such Lender’s outstanding Tranche B Domestic Loans and/or Tranche B Canadian Loans, as the case may be, correspond with its Tranche B Domestic Pro Rata Share and/or Tranche B Canadian Pro Rata Share, as the case may be, after giving effect to this Second Amendment.

The Borrowers authorize the Administrative Agent to charge their respective accounts with the Administrative Agent (in each case up to the amount available in each such account) in order to immediately pay the Declining Tranche B Lenders and Reducing Tranche B Lenders, as the case may be, to the extent amounts received from the Consenting Tranche B Lenders and New Tranche B Lenders are not sufficient to repay in full the amount of any outstanding Tranche B Domestic Loans and/or Tranche B Canadian Loans of a Declining Tranche B Lender and/or Reducing Tranche B Lender.

The Borrowers shall pay any amounts due under subsection 2.6 and subsection 4.10 of the Credit Agreement as a result of any adjustment pursuant to this Section 3.B.
