Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 31, 2019, Celadon Group, Inc. (the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries entered into several agreements (collectively, the “Refinancing Transactions”) with the principal purpose of refinancing that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated December 12, 2014, by and among the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, Bank of America, N.A. as lender and administrative agent, and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and Citizens Bank, N.A. as lenders (as amended, the “Former Credit Agreement”).

Prior to the Refinancing Transactions, the Company had balance sheet cash of approximately $6.2 million, outstanding standby letters of credit of approximately $28.5 million, revolving borrowings of $94.0 million, and available borrowing capacity of zero.  After giving effect to the Refinancing Transactions, the Company had balance sheet cash of approximately $52.4 million (including $7.0 million restricted for payment of interest on the term loans described below and approximately $30.0 million posted to cash collateralize letters of credit), revolving borrowings equal to the cash posted to secure letters of credit, $105.0 million of term loan borrowings, and approximately $11.3 million of available borrowing capacity.  Approximately $12.3 million of the term loan proceeds were used to fund fees, expenses, and other accrued costs (including original issue discount) and approximately $30.5 million of obligations, including $13.6 million in accrued amendment and other fees under the Former Credit Agreement were extinguished.  The Company’s liquidity (unrestricted cash plus borrowing availability) of approximately $26.6 million immediately post-closing compares with the minimum liquidity requirements under the new credit agreements of $10.0 million during the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2019, and increasing thereafter.  The Company has experienced negative cash flow for several years, and improvement in operations as well as successful execution of the Company’s tractor replacement program will be required to remain in compliance with the financial covenants, including the minimum liquidity covenant, included in the new credit agreements.

The primary agreements entered into in connection with the Refinancing Transactions were as follows:

·
a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan Agreement”), among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries, Blue Torch Finance, LLC, as administrative agent, and BTC Holdings Fund I, LLC, BTC Holdings Fund I-B, LLC, BTC Holdings SC Fund, LLC, and Luminus Energy Partners Master Fund, Ltd., each as lenders (the “Term Loan Lenders”);

·
a Credit and Security Agreement among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries, and MidCap Financial Trust as administrative agent and lender (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”); and

·
a Warrant Purchase Agreement between the Company and Luminus Energy Partners Master Fund Ltd. (the “Warrant Purchase Agreement”).

Each of these agreements is described in more detail below.
 


Term Loan Agreement

On July 31, 2019, the lenders under the Former Credit Agreement assigned and sold their interests in the Former Credit Agreement to the Term Loan Lenders, and the Former Credit Agreement was amended and restated into the Term Loan Agreement.  Under the Term Loan Agreement, the Term Loan Lenders provided term loans to the Company and certain of its subsidiaries in the aggregate principal amount of $105 million.  This amount is comprised of (i) approximately $77.1 million in debt that was outstanding under the Former Credit Agreement and was amended and restated into term loans pursuant to the Term Loan Agreement and (ii) approximately $27.9 million of new term loans.  Of the $27.9 million, $7.0 million was used to fund an interest reserve account, which will in turn fund initial interest payments under the Term Loan Agreement, $8.0 million was allocated to the lenders’ closing fees and original issue discount, and approximately $12.9 million was advanced to the Company in cash, of which approximately $4.3 million was used to pay professional fees, expenses, and other closing costs.
 
The Term Loan Agreement contains a mechanism pursuant to which up to $5.0 million of the principal amount of all term loans will be forgiven if the Company can decrease the loan to collateral value ratio with respect to approximately $75.0 million of “Term A” loans on or prior to August 1, 2020.  If such ratio is reduced after August 1, 2020 and on or before February 1, 2021, the amount of principal forgiven would be $2.5 million.  No principal forgiveness is available after February 1, 2021. The Company anticipates that any reduction in the loan to collateral value ratio would result from (i) prepayments of the Term A loans with proceeds of real estate and other asset sales or (ii) obtaining new asset appraisals demonstrating a higher collateral value.

Other terms of the Term Loan Agreement include the following:

·
three-year term with maturity date of July 31, 2022;

·
interest rate equal to LIBOR + 10.25% with a 2.00% LIBOR floor;

·
no mandatory scheduled amortization for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2020, amortization of $1,250,000 per quarter beginning with the quarter ending September 30, 2020, and amortization of $1,875,000 per quarter beginning with the quarter ending September 30, 2021;

·
mandatory prepayments with proceeds of certain asset dispositions, insurance proceeds, incurrence of other debt, and 75% of the Company’s excess cash flow on an annual basis;

·
a “make-whole” prepayment premium plus 4.0% in the first year of the facility, a 3.0% prepayment premium in the second year of the facility, and a 1.0% prepayment premium after the second year of the facility, provided that no prepayment premium is required during the last six months of the facility;

·
an annual agency fee of $150,000;
 

·
Lease Adjusted Leverage Ratio, Capital Expenditure, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, and Minimum Liquidity financial covenants;

·
secured by substantially all of the Company’s and its US, Canadian, and Mexican subsidiaries’ assets;

·
board observation rights; and

·
other representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default that are customary for this type of facility.

The description of the Term Loan Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Term Loan Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1.

Revolving Credit Agreement

The Revolving Credit Agreement provides a $60.0 million revolving credit facility intended to fund the Company’s working capital requirements.  The Company borrowed approximately $30.0 million under the Revolving Credit Agreement on the closing date to fund the cash-collateralization of the Company’s outstanding letter of credit obligations under the Former Credit Agreement.  Other terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement include the following:

·
three-year term with a maturity date of July 31, 2022;

·
interest rate of LIBOR + 3.5%, with a 1.0% LIBOR floor;

·
borrowing availability is determined based on a “borrowing base” equal to 90% of the face value of eligible US and Canadian accounts receivable, with a borrowing base of approximately $42.3 million on the closing date;

·
a deemed minimum balance equal to 15% of the average monthly borrowing base for purposes of calculating fees and interest;

·
in the event the facility is terminated prior to maturity, the Company must pay a prepayment premium of 3.0% during the first year of the facility, 2.0% during the second year of the facility, and 1.0% after the second year of the facility, provided that no prepayment premium is required during the last six months of the facility;

·
Lease Adjusted Leverage Ratio, Capital Expenditure, Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, and Minimum Liquidity financial covenants;

·
secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its US and Canadian subsidiaries;

·
requires completion of audited financial statements for fiscal 2019 and prior periods by no later than June 30, 2020; and

·
other representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default that are customary for this type of facility.
 

The description of the Revolving Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Revolving Credit Agreement, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.2.

Warrant Purchase Agreement

Under the Warrant Purchase Agreement, the Company sold to Luminus Energy Partners Master Fund, Ltd. (“Luminus”) a warrant to purchase 16,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (or preferred stock convertible into common stock) (the “Initial Warrant”) and a warrant to purchase 5,472,845 shares of the Company’s common stock (or preferred stock convertible into common stock) (the “Change in Control Warrant” and, together with the Initial Warrant, the “Warrants”). Immediately prior to entering into the Warrant Purchase Agreement Luminus beneficially owned, directly or indirectly through its affiliates, 4,576,613 shares of the Company’s common stock. The terms of the Warrants include the following:

·
exercise price of $0.01 per share for both Warrants;

·
the Initial Warrant has an expiration date of July 31, 2025;

·
the Change in Control Warrant has an expiration date of July 31, 2030;

·
the Initial Warrant is exercisable at any time prior to its expiration date;

·
the Change in Control Warrant is exercisable only upon a change in control of the Company (as further defined in the Change in Control Warrant) prior to its expiration date;

·
anti-dilution rights providing for downward adjustment of the exercise price if the Company’s stock is issued for less than the then-existing exercise price;

·
the exercise price and number of shares issuable under the Warrants are subject to customary adjustments for stock splits and similar events; and

·
board observation rights.

In addition, the Warrant Purchase Agreement provides Luminus with preemptive rights whereby if the Company proposes to issue additional shares of common stock Luminus will be entitled to acquire a number of shares of common stock sufficient for it to maintain its percentage of ownership of the Company’s common stock on a fully diluted basis as it had immediately prior to such issuance, assuming for such purpose full exercise of the Warrants.  Luminus is entitled to acquire such shares of common stock on the same terms and conditions offered pursuant to the proposed issuance.  The Warrant Purchase Agreement also requires the Company to use its best efforts to ensure it is in compliance with its public reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), by no later than June 30, 2020.
 


The Company currently has 40,000,000 shares of common stock authorized for issuance under its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) and, as of July 31, 2019, there were 30,078,474 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.  Accordingly, the company does not have sufficient shares of common stock authorized under the Charter to cover the number of shares to be acquired under the Warrants.  As a result, the Warrant Purchase Agreement requires the Company, at its next stockholder meeting, to submit and recommend the adoption of an amendment to the Charter that increases the number of shares of authorized common stock to 100,000,000 and decreases the par value of its common stock from $0.033 to $0.01 or less (the “Charter Amendment”).  The Warrant Agreement requires Luminus to vote in favor of the Charter Amendment.  In the event the Warrants are exercised prior to the Charter Amendment, the Warrant holder would receive one share of preferred stock in lieu of each 1,000 shares of common stock.  Each share of preferred stock issued pursuant to the Warrants would be automatically converted to 1,000 shares of common stock upon adoption of the Charter Amendment.  The terms of this preferred stock are described in further detail under Item 5.03 below.

The Warrant Agreement also requires the Company to amend its Section 382 Tax Benefits Preservation Plan, dated as of August 9, 2018, by and between the Company and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, as Rights Agent (the “Rights Plan”), so that Luminus and its affiliates are “Exempt Persons” thereunder for all purposes.  Once the Rights Plan is so amended, acquisitions of the Company’s common stock or other securities by Luminus or its affiliates would not cause the rights issued under the Rights Plan to become exercisable and dilutive to Luminus.  The Rights Plan requires a stockholder vote at the next meeting of the Company’s stockholders and Luminus agreed in the Warrant Purchase Agreement to vote in favor of ratification and continuation of the Rights Plan.

The Warrants were acquired by Luminus contemporaneously with the closing of the Term Loan Agreement, under which Luminus is a Term Loan Lender with aggregate term loan commitments of approximately $30.0 million (the “Term B Loans”).  The Warrant Purchase Agreement provides that the Company and Luminus will determine an allocation of the Term B Loans proceeds to the purchase price of each of the Warrants within six months of the closing of the Warrant Purchase Agreement.

On July 31, 2019, in connection with the Warrant Purchase Agreement, the Company and Luminus entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which holders of the Warrants and securities issued in respect of the Warrants (including, without limitation, shares of common stock issued upon conversion of any preferred stock issued upon exercise of the Warrants) (collectively, “Registrable Securities”) will be entitled to demand the registration of the sale of certain or all of their Registrable Securities. Among other things, under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement:
 


·
if the Company proposes to file certain types of registration statements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with respect to an offering of equity securities, the Company will be required to offer holders of Registrable Securities, if any, the opportunity to register the sale of all or part of their Registrable Securities on the terms and conditions set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement (customarily known as “piggyback rights”); and

·
holders of Registrable Securities have the right, subject to certain conditions and exceptions, to request that the Company file registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for one or more offerings of all or part of their Registrable Securities and the Company is required to cause any such registration statements to be filed with the SEC and become effective.

All expenses of registration under the Registration Rights Agreement, including the legal fees of one counsel retained by or on behalf of the holders of Registrable Securities, will be paid by the Company. Each holder of Registrable Securities will pay its portion of all underwriting discounts and commissions and transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale of such holder’s Registrable Securities pursuant to any such registration.

The registration rights granted in the Registration Rights Agreement are subject to customary restrictions such as minimums, blackout periods and, if a registration is underwritten, any limitations on the number of shares to be included in the underwritten offering as reasonably advised by the managing underwriter. The Registration Rights Agreement also contains customary indemnification and contribution provisions.

The descriptions of the Warrant Purchase Agreement, the Initial Warrant, the Change in Control Warrant, and the Registration Rights Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of such agreements, which are filed herewith as Exhibits 10.3, 10.4, 10.5, and 10.6, respectively.

Item 3.02          Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

See the description set forth under the heading “Warrant Purchase Agreement” under Item 1.01 of this report, which is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.  The sale of the Warrants was made in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.  In determining to rely on this exemption, the Company considered that Luminus is an accredited and sophisticated investor who is the Company’s largest stockholder and is familiar with the Company’s operations, the Company did not engage in any general solicitation or advertising in connection with the sale, and Luminus acquired the Warrants without a view to resale or distribution to others immediately, as evidenced by certain representations in the Warrant Purchase Agreement.
 


Item 3.03          Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

On July 31, 2019, in connection with the Company’s entry into the Warrant Purchase Agreement and issuance of the Warrants, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted resolutions pursuant to which Luminus was declared an “Exempt Person” under the Rights Plan and all securities of the Company held by Luminus and issued in respect of the Warrants (including, without limitation, any shares of common stock issued in exchange for shares of preferred stock issued upon exercise of the Warrants) an “Exempt Amount” under the Rights Plan.  The purpose of these resolutions was to permit the closing of the Warrant Purchase Agreement and the issuance and future exercise of the Warrants without causing the rights issued under the Rights Plan to become exercisable and dilutive to Luminus.

Item 5.03          Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On July 31, 2019, in connection with the closing of the Warrant Purchase Agreement and issuance of the Warrants, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a Certificate of Designation, Preferences, and Rights of Series B Preferred Stock of Celadon Group, Inc. (the “Series B Certificate of Designation”) and the Company filed the Series B Certificate of Designation with the Delaware Secretary of State.  The Series B Certificate of Designation designates for issuance 50,000 shares of a new class of preferred stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”).

The purpose of the Series B Certificate of Designation and the Series B Preferred Stock was to create a class of preferred stock that was economically similar to common stock and could be issued upon exercise of the Warrants in the event the Company did not have sufficient authorized shares of common stock to issue upon such exercise.  Each share of Series B Preferred Stock automatically converts into 1,000 shares of the Company’s common stock upon the adoption of the Charter Amendment.  Accordingly, if the Warrants were exercised prior to adoption of the Charter Amendment, one share of Series B Preferred Stock would be issued in lieu of each 1,000 shares of common stock and, upon adoption of the Charter Amendment, each share of Series B Preferred Stock would automatically convert into 1,000 shares of common stock, thereby giving the holder of the Warrant the same number of shares of common stock as it would have received had the common stock been issued upon initial exercise of the Warrant.

Holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive proceeds of dividends, consolidations, mergers, and liquidating distributions in preference to the holders of the Company’s common stock and in a per-share amount equal to 1,000 times the per-share amount allocable to the Company’s common stock, subject to certain customary adjustments for stock splits and similar events.  Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to accrue, on a cumulative basis, a minimum quarterly dividend of $0.01 per share, whether or not declared.  However, the Series B Certificate of Designation provides that the Company shall not declare or pay any dividend in cash in respect of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock at any time such declaration or payment is prohibited by the terms of any loan or credit agreement to which the Company is a party.  The Term Loan Agreement and the Revolving Credit Agreement prohibit the Company from paying cash dividends.
 


The description of the Series B Certificate of Designation does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Series B Certificate of Designation, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 3.1. Exhibit 3.1 includes a Certificate of Correction filed by the Company with the Delaware Secretary of State on August 6, 2019 correcting a typographical error in the Series B Certificate of Designation.

Item 7.01          Regulation FD Disclosure.

On July 31, 2019, the Company issued a press release announcing the transactions disclosed in this report.  A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

CELADON GROUP, INC.
(Pursuant to Section 151 of the Delaware General Corporation Law)

Celadon Group, Inc. (the “Corporation”), a corporation organized and existing under the General Corporation Law of the State of the Delaware, as amended (the “DGCL”), hereby certifies that, pursuant to the authority granted by Article Fourth of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended (the “Restated Certificate of Incorporation”), and in accordance with Section 151 of the DGCL, the Board of Directors of the Corporation (hereinafter being referred to as the “Board of Directors” or the “Board”), by special meeting held July 31, 2019, has adopted the following resolution with respect to the designations, number of shares, preferences, voting powers and other rights and the restrictions and limitations thereof, of the Series B Preferred Stock:
RESOLVED, that, pursuant to the authority granted to and vested in the Board of Directors in accordance with the provisions of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the designations, number of shares, preferences, voting powers and other rights and the restrictions and limitations thereof of the Series B Preferred Stock are as follows:
1.          Designation and Amount.  The shares of such series shall be designated as “Series B Preferred Stock” (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) and the number of shares constituting the Series B Preferred Stock shall be 50,000.  Such number of shares may be increased or decreased by resolution of the Board of Directors prior to issuance; provided, that no decrease shall reduce the number of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock to a number less than the number of shares then outstanding plus the number of shares reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding options, rights or warrants or upon the conversion of any outstanding securities issued by the Corporation convertible into the Series B Preferred Stock; provided, further, that if more than a total of 50,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants, dated July 31, 2019, initially issued to Luminus Management, LLC (the “Warrants”), the Board of Directors of the Corporation, pursuant to Section 151(g) of the DGCL, shall direct by resolution or resolutions that a certificate be properly executed, acknowledged, filed and recorded, in accordance with the provisions of Section 103 of the DGCL, providing for the total number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock authorized to be issued to be increased (to the extent that the Restated Certificate of Incorporation then permits) to the largest number of whole shares (rounded up to the nearest whole number) issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.
2.          Dividends and Distributions.
(a)          In preference to the holders of common stock, par value $0.033 per share, of the Corporation (the “Common Stock”) and of any other capital stock of the Corporation, including shares of any other series of preferred stock of the Company, shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds of the Corporation legally available for the payment of dividends, quarterly dividends payable in cash on the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Corporation in each year, or such other dates as the Board of Directors shall approve (each such date being referred to herein as a “Quarterly Dividend Payment Date”), commencing on the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date after the first issuance of a share or fraction of a share of the Series B Preferred Stock (the “Issue Date”), in an amount per share (rounded to the nearest cent) equal to the greater of (i) $0.01 or (ii) subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, 1000 times the aggregate per share amount of all cash dividends, and 1000 times the aggregate per share amount (payable in cash) of all non-cash dividends or other distributions other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or a subdivision of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise), declared on the Common Stock since the immediately preceding Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or, with respect to the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, since the first issuance of any share or fraction of a share of Series B Preferred Stock.  In the event the Corporation shall at any time after the Issue Date (A) declare and pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or (B) effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the amount to which holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under clause (ii) of the preceding sentence shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of

Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.  In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock payable in shares of Series B Preferred Stock, or effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Series B Preferred Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, then in each such case the amount to which holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 2(a) shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding immediately after such event.
(b)          The Corporation shall declare a dividend or distribution on the Series B Preferred Stock as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2 immediately after it declares a dividend or distribution on the Common Stock (other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock); and the Corporation shall pay such dividend or distribution on the Series B Preferred Stock before the dividend or distribution declared on the Common Stock is paid or set apart; provided that, in the event no dividend or distribution shall have been declared on the Common Stock during the period between any Quarterly Dividend Payment Date and the next subsequent Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, a dividend of $1.00 per share on the Series B Preferred Stock shall nevertheless be payable, when, as and if declared, on such subsequent Quarterly Dividend Payment Date.
(c)          Dividends shall begin to accrue and be cumulative, whether or not declared, on outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock from the Quarterly Dividend Payment Date next preceding the date of issue of such shares, unless the date of issue of such shares is prior to the record date for the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in which case dividends on such shares shall begin to accrue from the date of issue of such shares, or unless the date of issue is a Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or is a date after the record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock entitled to receive a quarterly dividend and before such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in either of which events such dividends shall begin to accrue and be cumulative from such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date.  Accrued but unpaid dividends shall not bear interest.  Dividends paid on the shares of Series B Preferred Stock in an amount less than the total amount of such dividends at the time accrued and payable on such shares shall be allocated pro rata on a share-by-share basis among all such shares at the time outstanding.  The Board of Directors may fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock entitled to receive payment of a dividend or distribution declared thereon, which record date shall be not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for the payment thereof.
(d)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 2, the Company shall not declare or pay any dividend in cash in respect of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock at any time such declaration or payment is prohibited by the terms of any loan or credit agreement to which the Company is a party.
3.          Voting Rights.  The holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the following voting rights:
(a)          Subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth and except as otherwise provided in the Restated Certificate of Incorporation or required by law, each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one thousand (1,000) votes on all matters upon which the holders of the Common Stock of the Corporation are entitled to vote.  In the event the Corporation shall at any time after the Issue Date (i) declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or (ii) effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the number of votes per share to which holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted by multiplying such number by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.  In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock payable in shares of Series B Preferred Stock, or effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Series B Preferred Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, then in each such case the number of votes per share to which holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding immediately after such event.
2

(b)          Except as otherwise provided herein, in the Restated Certificate of Incorporation or in any other Certificate of Designations creating a series of Preferred Stock or any similar stock, and except as otherwise required by law, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock and the holders of shares of Common Stock and any other capital stock of the Corporation having general voting rights shall vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Corporation.
(c)          (i)          If at any time dividends on any Series B Preferred Stock shall be in arrears in an amount equal to six quarterly dividends thereon, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock, voting as a separate series from all other series of Preferred Stock and classes of capital stock, shall be entitled to elect two members of the Board in addition to any Directors elected by any other series, class or classes of securities and the authorized number of Directors will automatically be increased by two.  Promptly thereafter, the Board of the Corporation shall, as soon as may be practicable, call a special meeting of holders of Series B Preferred Stock for the purpose of electing such members of the Board.  Such special meeting shall in any event be held within 45 calendar days of the occurrence of such arrearage.
(ii)          During any period when the holders of Series B Preferred Stock, voting as a separate series, shall be entitled and shall have exercised their right to elect two Directors, then, and during such time as such right continues, (a) the then authorized number of Directors shall be increased by two, and the holders of Series B Preferred Stock, voting as a separate series, shall be entitled to elect the additional Directors so provided for, and (b) each such additional Director shall serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders for the election of Directors, or until his or her successor shall be elected and shall qualify, or until his or her right to hold such office terminates pursuant to the provisions of this Section 3(c).
(iii)          A Director elected pursuant to the terms hereof may be removed with or without cause by the holders of Series B Preferred Stock entitled to vote in an election of such Director.
(iv)          If, during any interval between annual meetings of stockholders for the election of Directors and while the holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to elect two Directors, there is no such Director in office by reason of resignation, death or removal, then, promptly thereafter, the Board shall call a special meeting of the holders of Series B Preferred Stock for the purpose of filling such vacancy and such vacancy shall be filled at such special meeting.  Such special meeting shall in any event be held within 45 calendar days of the occurrence of such vacancy.
(v)          At such time as the arrearage is fully cured, and all dividends accumulated and unpaid on any shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding are paid, and, in addition thereto, at least one regular dividend has been paid subsequent to curing such arrearage, the term of office of any Director elected pursuant to this Section 3(c), or his successor, shall automatically terminate, and the authorized number of Directors shall automatically decrease by two, the rights of the holders of the shares of the Series B Preferred Stock to vote as provided in this Section 3(c) shall cease, subject to renewal from time to time upon the same terms and conditions, and the holders of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock shall have only the limited voting rights elsewhere herein set forth.
(d)          Except as set forth herein, or as otherwise provided by law, holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall have no special voting rights and their consent shall not be required (except to the extent they are entitled to vote with holders of Common Stock as set forth herein) for taking any corporate action.
4.          Certain Restrictions.
(a)          Whenever quarterly dividends or other dividends or distributions payable on the Series B Preferred Stock as provided in Section 2 hereof are in arrears, thereafter and until all accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions, whether or not declared, on shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding shall have been paid in full, the Corporation shall not:
(i)          declare or pay dividends, or make any other distributions, on any shares of stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series B Preferred Stock;
(ii)          declare or pay dividends, or make any other distributions, on any shares of stock ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) with the Series B Preferred Stock, except dividends paid ratably on the Series B Preferred Stock and all such parity stock on which dividends are payable or in arrears in proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are then entitled;
3

(iii)          redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration shares of any stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series B Preferred Stock, provided that the Corporation may at any time redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire shares of any such junior stock in exchange for shares of any stock of the Corporation ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon dissolution, liquidation or winding up) to the Series B Preferred Stock or rights, warrants or options to acquire such junior stock; or
(iv)          redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of Series B Preferred Stock, or any shares of stock ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) with the Series B Preferred Stock, except in accordance with a purchase offer made in writing or by publication (as determined by the Board of Directors) to all holders of such shares upon such terms as the Board of Directors, after consideration of the respective annual dividend rates and other relative rights and preferences of the respective series and classes, shall determine in good faith will result in fair and equitable treatment among the respective series or classes.
(b)          The Corporation shall not permit any subsidiary of the Corporation to purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of stock of the Corporation unless the Corporation could, under paragraph (a) of this Section 4, purchase or otherwise acquire such shares at such time and in such manner.
5.          Reacquired Shares.  Any shares of Series B Preferred Stock purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation in any manner whatsoever, or which shall be converted into shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 8 of this Certificate of Designation, shall be retired and cancelled promptly after the acquisition thereof by the Corporation.  All such shares shall upon their cancellation become authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock and may be reissued, without designation as to series until such shares are once more designated as part of a particular series of Preferred Stock by resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors, subject to the conditions and restrictions on issuance set forth herein, in the Restated Certificate of Incorporation, or in any other Certificate of Designation creating a series of Preferred Stock or any similar stock or as otherwise required by law.
6.          Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up.
(a)          Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, no distribution shall be made (i) to the holders of the Common Stock or of shares of any other stock of the Corporation ranking junior, either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, to the Series B Preferred Stock unless, prior thereto, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall have received $1,000 per share, plus an amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions thereon, whether or not declared, to the date of such payment; provided that the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive an aggregate amount per share, subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, equal to 1,000 times the aggregate amount to be distributed per share to holders of shares of Common Stock, or (ii) to the holders of shares of stock ranking on a parity either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up with the Series B Preferred Stock, except distributions made ratably on the Series B Preferred Stock and all such parity stock in proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are entitled upon such liquidation, dissolution or winding up.  In the event, however, that there are not sufficient assets available to permit payment in full of the Series B Preferred Stock liquidation preference and the liquidation preferences of all other classes and series of stock of the Corporation, if any, that rank on a parity with the Series B Preferred Stock in respect thereof, then the assets available for such distribution shall be distributed ratably to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock and the holders of such parity shares in the proportion to their respective liquidation preferences.  In the event the Corporation shall at any time after the Issue Date (A) declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or (B) effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the aggregate amount to which holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under the proviso in clause (i) of this Section 6(a) shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.  In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock payable in shares of Series B Preferred Stock, or effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Series B Preferred Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, then in each such case the aggregate amount to which holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under the proviso in clause (i) of this Section 6(a) shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number
4

of shares of Series B Preferred Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding immediately after such event.
(b)          Neither the merger, consolidation or other business combination of the Corporation into or with another entity nor the merger, consolidation or other business combination of any other entity into or with the Corporation (nor the sale, lease, exchange or conveyance of all or substantially all of the property, assets or business of the Corporation) shall be deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation within the meaning of this Section 6.
8.          Consolidation, Merger, etc.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in case the Corporation shall enter into any consolidation, merger, combination or other transaction in which the shares of Common Stock are converted into, exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities, cash and/or any other property (payable in kind), then in any such case each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall at the same time be similarly converted into, exchanged for or changed into an amount per share (subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth) equal to 1,000 times the aggregate amount of stock, securities, cash and/or any other property (payable in kind), as the case may be, into which or for which each share of Common Stock is converted or exchanged.  In the event the Corporation shall at any time after the Issue Date (i) declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or (ii) effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the amount set forth in the preceding sentence with respect to the conversion, exchange or change of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.  In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Series B Preferred Stock payable in shares of Series B Preferred Stock, or effect a subdivision, combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Series B Preferred Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, then in each such case the amount set forth in the first sentence of this Section 7 with respect to the exchange or change of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding immediately after such event.
8.          Conversion.  Upon the occurrence of the Increase Authorization (as such term is defined in that certain Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated July 31, 2019, by and between the Corporation and Luminus Energy Partners Master Fund, Ltd.), each share of Series B Preferred Stock automatically shall be converted, without any action by any holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock into One Thousand (1,000) fully paid and validly issued shares of Common Stock, the shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be cancelled.  Within five (5) business days after the Increase Authorization, the Corporation shall cause its transfer agent to send the shares of Common Stock so issued to the holders of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock.
9.          No Redemption.  The shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall not be redeemable from any holder.
10.          Rank.  The Series B Preferred Stock shall rank, with respect to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, senior to all series of any other class of the Preferred Stock issued either before or after the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock, unless the terms of any such series shall provide otherwise, and shall rank senior to the Common Stock.
11.          Amendment.  At such time as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, if any proposed amendment to the Restated Certificate of Incorporation (including this Certificate of Designation) would alter, change or repeal any of the preferences, powers or special rights given to the Series B Preferred Stock so as to affect the Series B Preferred Stock adversely, then the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote separately as a class upon such amendment, and the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, voting separately as a single class, shall be necessary for the adoption thereof, in addition to such other vote as may be required by the DGCL.
12.          Fractional Shares.  Series B Preferred Stock may be issued in fractions of a share that shall entitle the holder, in proportion to such holder’s fractional shares, to exercise voting rights, receive dividends, participate in distributions and to have the benefit of all other rights of holders of Series B Preferred Stock.

55

of such date, not to exercise such option).  On the Required Prepayment Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent the amount of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, which amount shall be applied (i) in an amount equal to that portion of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment payable to those Lenders that have elected not to exercise such option, to prepay the Loans of such Lenders (which prepayment shall be applied to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.5(d)) and (ii) to the extent of any excess, to the Borrower for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Any such determination shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(e)          The Interest Reserve Account shall be funded on the Closing Date with the Interest Reserve Amount.  The Interest Reserve Account shall be an interest bearing account and all interest paid on amounts in such account shall be for the account of the Borrower, and, if not applied in accordance with this Section 2.6(e), shall be paid to the Borrower on the Maturity Date or such earlier date as may be determined by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall make payment of amounts on deposit in the Interest Reserve Account (including any interest accrued on such amount) to the Lenders in respect of accrued and unpaid
56

interest on the Loans on each Interest Reserve Release Date until the Interest Reserve Account is exhausted, at which time Borrower will commence paying remaining interest directly.
Section 2.7.          Protective Advances..  Subject to the limitations set forth below, and whether or not an Event of Default or a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent is authorized by the Borrower and the Lenders, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (but the Administrative Agent shall have absolutely no obligation to), to make disbursements or advances to the Borrower, which the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable (i) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (ii) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations, or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, payments of principal, interest, fees and reimbursable expenses (any such Loans are in this Section 2.7 referred to as “Protective Advances”).  The interest rate on all Protective Advances shall be at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans.  Each Protective Advance shall be secured by the Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Obligations hereunder.  The Protective Advances shall constitute Obligations hereunder which may be charged to the Payment Account in accordance with Section 2.14.  The Borrower shall pay the unpaid principal amount and all unpaid and accrued interest of each Protective Advance on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the date on which demand for payment is made by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender and the Borrower in writing of each such Protective Advance, which notice shall include a description of the purpose of such Protective Advance.  Without limitation to its obligations pursuant to Section 10.3, each Lender agrees that it shall make available to the Administrative Agent, upon the Administrative Agent’s demand, in Dollars in immediately available funds, the amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rate Share of each such Protective Advance.  If such funds are not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such funds on demand from such Lender, together with interest thereon for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for three Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate.
Section 2.8.          Computation of Interest.
All computations of interest hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable (to the extent computed on the basis of days elapsed). Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest amount hereunder shall be made in good faith and, except for manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.
Section 2.9.          Inability to Determine Interest Rates.  (a)  Unless and until a Replacement Rate is implemented in accordance with clause (b) below prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Loan,
57

(i)     the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant interbank market, either Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Loan, or adequate means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for such Interest Period, or
(ii)    the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender, as the case may be) of making, funding or maintaining their (or its, as the case may be) Loans for such Interest Period,
the Administrative Agent shall give written notice (or telephonic notice, promptly confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and to the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter.  Until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) the obligations of the Lenders to continue outstanding Loans as or into Loans shall be suspended and (ii) all such affected Loans shall be converted into a Loan accruing interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto. Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted.
(b)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances described in Section 2.9(a)(i) or (a)(ii) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (ii) syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in Section 2.9(a), are being executed or amended (as applicable), to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace LIBOR or (iii) the supervisor for the administrator of LIBOR or a Governmental Authority has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which LIBOR shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, shall endeavor to establish an alternate index rate (the “Replacement Rate”) that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for leveraged syndicated loans in the United States at such time, in which case the Replacement Rate shall, subject to the following provisions of this Section 2.9(b), replace such applicable interest rate for all purposes under the Loan Documents unless and until (A) an event described in Section 2.9(a)(i), (a)(ii), (b)(i), (b)(ii) or (b)(iii) occurs with respect to the Replacement Rate or (B) the Required Lenders through the Administrative Agent notify the Borrower that the Replacement Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of making, funding or maintaining the Loans bearing interest at the Replacement Rate. In connection with the establishment and application of the Replacement Rate, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.9(b).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.2, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any Lender so long as the Administrative Agent shall not
58

have received, within five (5) Business Days after the date notice such amendment is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from Required Lenders stating that they object to such amendment (which amendment shall not be effective prior to the end of such five (5) Business Day notice period). To the extent the Replacement Rate is adopted as contemplated hereby, the Replacement Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with prevailing market convention; provided that, to the extent no prevailing market convention exists or such prevailing market convention is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such Replacement Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent makes a determination described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above, until a Replacement Rate has been determined and an amendment with respect thereto has become effective in accordance with the terms and conditions of this paragraph, any notice from a Borrower that requests the conversion of any Base Rate Loan to, or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan as, a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be ineffective. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Replacement Rate as determined in this paragraph shall not be less than 2.00% per annum for the purposes of this Agreement.
(c)          At any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall no longer have the option to request that any portion of the Loans bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate and the Administrative Agent shall convert the interest rate on all outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans to the rate of interest then applicable to Base Rate Loans of the same type hereunder on the last day of the then current Interest Period.
Section 2.10.          Illegality If any Change in Law shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to make, maintain or fund any Eurodollar Rate Loan and such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower and the other Lenders, whereupon until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Lender to continue outstanding Loans as Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended and the affected Eurodollar Rate Loan then outstanding shall be converted to a Loan either (i) on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Loan to such date or (ii) immediately if such Lender shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loan to such date into a Loan accruing interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.  Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the affected Lender shall, prior to giving such notice to the Administrative Agent, designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation would avoid the need for giving such notice and if such designation would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in the good faith exercise of its discretion.
Section 2.11.          Increased Costs.
(a)          If any Change in Law shall:
59

(i)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Adjusted LIBO Rate hereunder against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate);
(ii)     impose on any Lender or the eurodollar interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or any Loans made by such Lender or any participation therein; or
(iii)   subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes, Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining a Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan or to reduce the amount received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then the Borrower shall pay, upon written notice from and demand by such Lender on the Borrower (with a copy of such notice and demand to the Administrative Agent), to such Lender, within five (5) Business Days after the date of such notice and demand, additional amount or amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b)          If any Lender shall have determined that on or after the date of this Agreement any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital (or on the capital of such Lender’s parent corporation) as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s parent corporation could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies or the policies of such Lender’s parent corporation with respect to capital adequacy) then, from time to time, within five (5) Business Days after receipt by the Borrower of written demand by such Lender (with a copy thereof to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s parent corporation for any such reduction suffered.
(c)          A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Lender’s parent corporation, as the case may be, specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.11 shall be delivered to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(d)          Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation.
60

Section 2.12.          Funding Indemnity.  In connection with each Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Borrower shall indemnify, defend, and hold the Administrative Agents and the Lenders harmless against any loss, cost, or expense incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of (a) the payment of any principal of a Eurodollar Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan in accordance with Sections 2.10 or 2.11 other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure by the Borrower to borrow or prepay any Eurodollar Rate Loan on the date specified in any applicable notice (regardless of whether such notice is withdrawn or revoked), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender, within five (5) Business Days after written demand from such Lender, for any loss, cost or expense attributable to such event, or (d) any assignment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the assignee pursuant to Sections 2.15 or 2.16.  Such loss, cost or expense shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loan if such event had not occurred at the Adjusted LIBO Rate applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or in the case of a failure to borrow for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan) over (B) the amount of interest that would accrue on the principal amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loan for the same period if the Adjusted LIBO Rate were set on the date on which the Borrower failed to borrow, convert or continue such Eurodollar Rate Loan.  A certificate as to any additional amount payable under this Section 2.12 submitted to the Borrower by any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
Section 2.13.       Taxes.
(a)          For purposes of this Section 2.13, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
(b)          Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for or on behalf of any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower or other Loan Party, as applicable, shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(c)          In addition, without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section, the Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
61

applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(d)          The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within five (5) Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid or payable by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by the applicable Recipient (with a copy to the Administrative Agent in the case of a Recipient other than the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(e)          Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.4(e) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.13(e).
(f)          As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower or other Loan Party, as applicable, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an 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.
(g)          (i)     Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent
62

as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.13(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
(A)    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or about the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
(B)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or about the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(1)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(2)    executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(3)    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 substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or
63

(4)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 or Exhibit A-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit A-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or about the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)    if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the 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 Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
(iii)    Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
Section 2.14.          Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.
64

(a)          The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, or fees, or of amounts payable under Sections 2.11, 2.12 or 2.13, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon New York City time on the date when due, in immediately available funds, free and clear of any defenses, rights of set-off, counterclaim, or withholding or deduction of Taxes, except as set forth in Section 2.13.  Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon.  All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent to the Payment Account, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.11, 2.12 and 2.13 and 10.3 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.  If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be made payable for the period of such extension.  All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars.  The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to use the amounts on deposit in the Interest Reserve Account (i) to pay interest in accordance with Section 2.6(e) and (ii) at any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in order to pay any amounts due hereunder as the Administrative Agent may determine.
(b)          If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.
(c)          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 the Loans made by it, resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans and accrued interest thereon greater than its Pro Rata Share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent in writing of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so 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 or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and
65

(ii)          the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the 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 the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).
Each Loan Party 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 such Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Term A Lender shall be required to purchase any participations in the Term B Loans of the Term B Lenders.
Section 2.15.          Mitigation of Obligations If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.11, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.13, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the sole judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable under Section 2.11 or Section 2.13, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with such designation or assignment.
Section 2.16.          Replacement of Lenders.
(a)          If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.11, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.13, and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 2.15, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon written 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 set forth in Section 10.4(b)) all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender); provided, that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of all Loans owed to it, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees (including fees pursuant to Section 2.17), and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (in the case of such outstanding principal and accrued interest) and from the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of a claim for compensation under Section 2.11, or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.13, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments.  A
66

Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
Section 2.17.       Fees.
(a)          Fee Letter. As and when due and payable under the terms of the Fee Letter, the Borrower shall pay the fees set forth in the Fee Letter.
(b)          Applicable Premium.
(i)          Upon the occurrence of an Applicable Premium Trigger Event, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, the Applicable Premium.
(ii)          The Applicable Premium payable in accordance with this Section 2.17(b) shall be presumed to be equal to the liquidated damages sustained by the Lenders as the result of the occurrence of the Applicable Premium Trigger Event and the Loan Parties agree that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing.  THE LOAN PARTIES EXPRESSLY WAIVE THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING APPLICABLE PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACCELERATION.
(iii)          The Loan Parties expressly agree that:  (A) the Applicable Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Applicable Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between the Lenders and the Loan Parties giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Applicable Premium; (D) the Loan Parties shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph; (E) their agreement to pay the Applicable Premium is a material inducement to Lenders to provide the Loans, and (F) the Applicable Premium represents a good faith, reasonable estimate and calculation of the lost profits or damages of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and that it would be impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual amount of damages to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders or profits lost by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as a result of such Applicable Premium Trigger Event.
(iv)          Nothing contained in this Section 2.17(b) shall permit any prepayment of the Loans not otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
67

ARTICLE IX

THE AGENT
Section 9.1.          Appointment of Administrative Agent.
(a)          Each Lender irrevocably appoints Blue Torch Finance, LLC, as the Administrative Agent and authorizes it to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with all such actions and powers that are reasonably incidental thereto.  The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by or through any one or more sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent or attorney-in-fact may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions set forth in this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent or attorney-in-fact and the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent, any such sub-agent and any such attorney-in-fact and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or sub-agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects, so long as such selection was made in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, all of which duties and responsibilities are administrative in nature, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or Participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.
(b)          In addition, for Mexican law purposes, each Lender hereby grants to Blue Torch Finance, LLC, as agent, a comisión mercantil con representación in accordance with Articles 273, 274, and other applicable articles of the Commerce Code of Mexico (Código de Comercio) to act on its behalf as its agent in connection with this Agreement and the Loan Documents, in the terms and for the purposes set forth in this Article IX.
(c)          To the extent any agreement or document is required herein or in any other Loan Document to be satisfactory or acceptable (or reasonably satisfactory or reasonably acceptable) to, or approved by, the Lead Lender, the Lenders hereby authorize and direct the
111

Administrative Agent to enter into such agreement or document if the Lead Lender provides notice to the Administrative Agent that such agreement or document is satisfactory or acceptable to, or approved by, the Lead Lender.
Section 9.2.          Nature of Duties of Administrative Agent The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent 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, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except those discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.2); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law, and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.  The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it, its sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.2) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment.  The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof (which notice shall include an express reference to such event being a “Default” or “Event of Default” hereunder) is given to the Administrative Agent by a Loan Party or any Lender, and the Administrative Agent 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 any 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 and conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created under the Collateral Documents, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower) concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.
Section 9.3.          Lack of Reliance on the Administrative Agent.  Each of the Lenders acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative
112

Agent or any other Lender 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 of the Lenders also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking any action under or based on this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
Section 9.4.          Certain Rights of the Administrative Agent.  If the Administrative Agent shall request instructions from the Required Lenders with respect to any action or actions (including the failure to act) in connection with this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such act, unless and until it shall have received instructions from such Lenders. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate.  Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders where permitted by the terms of this Agreement.
Section 9.5.          Reliance by Administrative Agent The Administrative Agent 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 to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person.  The Administrative Agent may also rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.  The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower), independent public 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 such counsel, accountants or experts.
Section 9.6.          The Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity.  If the entity serving as the Administrative Agent is a Lender hereunder, then it shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Loan Document in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the terms “Lenders”, “Required Lenders”, or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.  The bank acting as the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrower as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.
Section 9.7.          Successor Administrative Agent.
(a)          The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower.  Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall
113

 have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrower, provided that no Default or Event of Default shall exist at such time. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed, and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent.  No Person shall become a successor Administrative Agent unless and until it has agreed in writing to be bound by the terms and provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement as if such Person were an original party thereto and delivered a copy of such writing to the ABL Administrative Agent.
(b)          Upon the acceptance of its appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  If within 45 days after written notice is given of the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation under this Section 9.7 no successor Administrative Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment, then on such 45th day (i) the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective, (ii) the retiring Administrative Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents and (iii) the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all duties of the retiring Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above.  After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.3 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent and its representatives and agents in respect of any actions taken or not taken by any of them while it was serving as the Administrative Agent.
(c)          The Required Lenders may at any time by written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower remove the Administrative Agent.  The Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to appoint a successor.  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent 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 the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section).  After the removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents by the retiring Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.3 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent and 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 was acting as Administrative Agent.
(d)          Notwithstanding the foregoing clauses (b) and (c), a retiring Administrative Agent shall continue in its obligations to hold collateral security on behalf of the Secured Parties until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed.  Upon the
114

appointment of such successor Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall, at the expense of the Borrower, deliver all collateral then in its possession to such successor Administrative Agent, and assist such successor Administrative Agent in transferring, amending or otherwise updating any public filings made to perfect or otherwise make public the security interests and Liens of the Administrative Agent and the other holders of the Obligations.
Section 9.8.          Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.
(a)          In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, concurso mercantil, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(i)          to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Section 10.3) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(ii)          to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same.
(b)          Any custodian, interim receiver, receiver, receiver manager, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 10.3.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.
Section 9.9.          Collateral Documents.  The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to enter into the Collateral Documents (including without limitation supplements to the Security Agreement) and the parties hereto acknowledge that such Collateral Documents are binding upon them.  Each Lender hereby authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Collateral Documents.
115

Section 9.10.          Collateral and Guaranty Matters.  The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion:
(a)          to release any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted) or (ii) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any person that is not the Borrower or a Subsidiary of the Borrower, or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 10.2; and
(b)          to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the applicable Collateral Documents if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder.
Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Loan Party from its obligations under the applicable Collateral Documents pursuant to this Section 9.11. In each case as specified in this Section 9.11, the Administrative Agent is authorized, at the Borrower’s expense, to execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the Liens granted under the applicable Collateral Documents, or to release such Loan Party from its obligations under the applicable Collateral Documents, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section (and the Administrative Agent may conclusively rely on a certificate provided by the Borrower that the transaction giving rise to such release is permitted under the Loan Documents).
Section 9.11.          Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guarantee Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby agree that (i) no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Collateral Documents, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder under the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Administrative Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other Disposition, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other Disposition and the Administrative Agent, as agent for and representative of the Lenders (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Administrative Agent at such sale or other Disposition.
Section 9.12.          No Reliance on Administrative Agent’s Customer Identification Program.  Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates
116

nor any Participant, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s or Participant’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA PATRIOT Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any of the Loan Parties, their Affiliates or their agents, the Loan Documents, the Transactions or the other transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby:  (a) identity verification procedures; (b) recordkeeping; (c) comparisons with government lists; (d) customer notices; or (e) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other laws.
Section 9.13.          Administrative Agent as Hypothecary Representative (fondé de pouvoir).  Without limiting the power of the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document, each of the Loan Parties hereby acknowledges that for the purposes of holding any hypothec granted or to be granted by the Borrower or any Guarantor under any deed of hypothec (“Deed of Hypothec”) pursuant to the laws of the Province of Quebec to secure payment of any obligation under this Agreement or any other Loan Document entered into by the Borrower or any Guarantor, the Administrative Agent is hereby appointed to act as the hypothecary representative (fondé de pouvoir) pursuant to Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec to act on behalf of each of the Loan Parties, and each Loan Party hereby confirms and agrees to such appointment. Each Person who is or becomes a Loan Party in accordance with Section 5.11 and each assignee under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, by its execution of an Assignment and Acceptance, shall be deemed to ratify the aforesaid appointment of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent agrees to act in such capacity. The Administrative Agent, in such aforesaid capacity shall (x) have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise, except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms hereof, all rights and remedies given to the Administrative Agent with respect to the Collateral under the Deed of Hypothec, applicable law or otherwise, and (y) be subject to all provisions hereof with respect to the Administrative Agent and shall benefit from all of the provisions hereof with respect to the Administrative Agent, mutatis mutandis, including, without limitation, all such provisions with respect to indemnification of the Administrative Agent by the Loan Parties and Lenders. The execution prior to the date hereof by the Administrative Agent of any Deed of Hypothec or other security documents made pursuant to the applicable law of the Province of Quebec is hereby ratified and confirmed. Without prejudice to Section 10.5, the provisions of this Section 9.13 shall be also governed by the laws of the Province of Quebec.

(c)          Platform.
(i)          The Borrower hereby acknowledges that (a) the Administrative Agent will make available to the Lenders materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on IntraLinks, Syndtrak, Debtdomain or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b) certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or their respective securities) (each, a “Public Lender”).  The Borrower hereby agrees to make all Borrower Materials that the Borrower intends to be made available to Public Lenders clearly and conspicuously designated as “PUBLIC”.  By designating Borrower Materials as “PUBLIC”, the Borrower authorizes such Borrower Materials to be made available to a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor,” which is intended to contain only information that is either publicly available or not material information (though it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or their respective securities for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be under any obligation to mark any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC.”  The Borrower agrees that (i) any Loan Documents and notifications of changes of terms of the Loan Documents (including term sheets), (ii) any financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.1 and (iii) any Compliance Certificates delivered to the Administrative Agent will be deemed to be “public-side” Borrower Materials and may be made available to Public Lenders.
(ii)          THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.”  THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS.  NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM.  In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its respective Related Parties (the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to any Loan Party, any Lender or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether or not based on strict liability and including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise)) arising out of the Borrower’s, any other Loan Party’s or any Agent Party’s transmission of Borrower Materials or notices through the Platform, except to the extent such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Agent Party as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
120

Section 10.2.          Waiver; Amendments.
(a)          No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or any other Loan Document, and no course of dealing between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or any Lender, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power hereunder or thereunder.  The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.  No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 10.2, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time.
(b)          No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (excluding the Fee Letter), or any consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, that no amendment or waiver shall:  (i) reduce the principal amount of any Loan, reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (ii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan or interest thereon or any fees hereunder or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment (excluding any prepayments required under Section 2.5, which shall require the consent of the Required Lenders), or postpone the Maturity Date, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) change Section 2.14(b) or (c) or Section 8.2 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (iv) change any of the provisions of this Section 10.2 or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders which are required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the consent of each Lender, (v) release any Loan Party or limit the liability of any such Loan Party under any Loan Document (except in a transaction expressly permitted by this Agreement), without the written consent of each Lender, or (vi) release all or substantially all collateral (if any) securing any of the Obligations or agree to subordinate any Lien in such collateral to any other creditor of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, without the written consent of each Lender; provided further, that (x) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights, duties or obligations of the Administrative Agent without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.
121

(c)          Notwithstanding anything in Section 10.2, Section 10.4 or the definition of “Required Lenders” to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders (or all Lenders or affected Lenders) have (1) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver or consent with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, (2) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (3) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, the Loans of any Term B Lender shall not be included in the calculation of Required Lenders (or if such non-voting designation is unenforceable for any reason, such Term B Lender shall be deemed to have voted its interest as a Lender without discretion in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Term B Lenders); provided, however, that except in any situation provided for in Section 10.4(h) or Section 8.2, each Term B Lender shall be entitled to, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, vote on any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any Loan Document that deprives such Term B Lender of its Pro Rata Share of any payments to which such Term B Lender is entitled under the Loan Documents, and the Term B Lender shall be entitled to vote on any amendment which imposes an obligation on such Term B Lender to make any additional Loans or extensions of credit (except for Protective  Advances) or which disproportionately affects such Term B Lender (other than disproportionate effects resulting from the "first out/last out" nature of the Term A Loans and the Term B Loans set forth in the Loan Documents).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Term B Lenders shall not have any right to (1) attend (including by telephone or electronic means) any meeting or discussions (or portions thereof) among the Administrative Agent or any Lender to which representatives of the Loan Parties are not invited or (2) receive any information or material provided by the Administrative Agent or any Lender solely to the Lenders or any communication by or among the Administrative Agent and/or one or more Lenders or have access to the Platform used to distribute information to the Lenders, except to the extent such information or materials have been made available to any Loan Party or its representatives.
(d)          In addition to any other waivers set forth in this Agreement, each Mexican Loan Party hereby further expressly waives the benefits of orden, excusión, division, and any other rights provided for in Articles 2813, 2814, 2815, 2816, 2817, 2818, 2819, 2820, 2821, 2822, 2823, 2826, 2840, 2844 and 2845 of the Mexican Federal Civil Code, and the corresponding Articles of the civil codes of the federal entities of Mexico, which Articles are not reproduced herein inasmuch as each Mexican Loan Party hereby represents to be familiar with the contents thereof.
(e)          In the event the Lenders grant an extension of time, stay or grace period to the Borrowers, or waive compliance of any obligation for any reason, without the consent of the Mexican Loan Parties, the obligations of each Mexican Loan Party hereunder shall not be reduced or settled notwithstanding that deriving from such waiver the obligations may be the subject of new guarantees or conditions and, therefore, each Mexican Loan Party hereby waives the rights and benefits that in connection with the foregoing derive from Articles 2846, 2847, 2848 and 2849 of the Mexican Federal Civil Code, and the corresponding Articles of the civil codes of
122

the federal entities of Mexico, which Articles are not reproduced herein inasmuch as the Mexican Loan Parties hereby represents to be familiar with the contents thereof.
Section 10.3.          Expenses; Indemnification.
(a)          The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, any due diligence conducted by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in respect of the transactions contemplated herein, the negotiation, preparation and administration of the Loan Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be consummated), including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, counsel for the Lenders and their respective Affiliates, a single local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction or other reasonably necessary local or specialty counsel (unless a conflict arises, in which case the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of each conflicts counsel shall also be reimbursed by the Borrower), and all fees, charges and disbursements of appraisals, field examinations, audits, service companies and third party consultants incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender and (ii) all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of (a) one counsel to the Lenders, (b) one counsel to the Administrative Agent and (c) a single local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction or other reasonably necessary local or specialty counsel (unless a conflict arises, in which case the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of each conflicts counsel shall also be reimbursed by the Borrower)) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section 10.3, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or in connection with the review of and compliance of the covenants thereunder.
(b)          The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent or attorney in fact thereof) and each Lender (including the Lead Lender Group) 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 fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from all fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party 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 thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) the use by any Person of any information or materials obtained through Intralinks, Syndtrak or any other Internet or intranet website, (iv) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or
123

operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (v) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEMNITEE; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) other than in the case of the Administrative Agent and its Related Parties, result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, in either case so long as the Borrower or such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.  No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through Intralinks, Syndtrak or any other Internet or intranet website, except as a result of such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable judgment.
(c)          The Borrower shall pay, and hold the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders harmless from and against, any and all present and future stamp, documentary, and other similar taxes with respect to this Agreement and any other Loan Documents, any Collateral described therein, or any payments due thereunder, and save the Administrative Agent and each Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission to pay such taxes.
(d)          To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid to the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties under clauses (a), (b) or (c) hereof, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or such Related Party such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought (or if such indemnity payment or unreimbursed amount is sought after the date on which the Term Loans have been paid in full, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares immediately prior to the date on which the Loans are paid in full)) of such unpaid amount; provided, that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified payment, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or such Related Party in its capacity as such.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (d).
(e)          To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to actual or direct damages) arising out
124

of, in connection with or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated therein, any Loan or the use of proceeds thereof.
(f)          All amounts due under this Section 10.3 shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

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 paragraph (d) of this Section 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.
(b)          Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(i)         Minimum Amounts.
(A)        in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or any accounts or clients managed, advised or sub-advised by a Lender, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B)         in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative
125

Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000, unless the Administrative Agent consents (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).
(ii)          Required Consents.  The consent of the Lead Lender (or if there is no Lead Lender, the Administrative Agent), such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, shall be required for assignments to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or any accounts or clients that invest in, or are managed, advised or sub-advised by, a Lender.  In addition, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no assignment shall be made to any Disqualified Institution without the consent of the Borrower.  The parties to this Agreement hereby acknowledge and agree that the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to be in default under this Agreement or to have any duty or responsibility or to incur any liabilities as a result of a breach of this Section 10.4(B)(ii), nor shall the Administrative Agent have any duty, responsibility or liability to monitor or enforce assignments, participations or other actions in respect of Disqualified Institutions, or otherwise take (or omit to take) any action with respect thereto.
(iii)         Assignment and Acceptance.  The parties to each assignment shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (A) a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance, (B) a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, (C) an Administrative Questionnaire unless the assignee is already a Lender, (D) the documents required under Section 2.13, and (E) if requested by Administrative Agent, all documentation and other information about such assignee as shall have been reasonably requested by Administrative Agent in connection with applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act.
(iv)        No Assignment to Borrower.  No such assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.
(v)          No Assignment to Natural Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) below, from and after the recordation date of each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, 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 and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance 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 2.11, 2.12, 2.13 and 10.3 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. 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
126

purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) below.
(c)          The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Information contained in the Register with respect to any Lender shall be available for inspection by such Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice; information contained in the Register shall also be available for inspection by the Borrower at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  In establishing and maintaining the Register, Administrative Agent shall serve as Borrower’s agent solely for tax purposes and solely with respect to the actions described in this Section.
(d)          Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries) (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 the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.
(e)          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 the following to the extent affecting such Participant:  (i)  reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, (ii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan or interest thereon or any fees hereunder or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, (iii) change Section 2.14(b) or (c) or Section 8.2 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, (iv) change any of the provisions of this Section 10.2 or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders which are required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, (v) release any Loan Party or limit the liability of any such Loan Party under any Loan Document (except in a transaction expressly permitted by this Agreement); or (vi) release all or substantially all collateral (if any) securing any of the Obligations.  Subject to paragraph (e) of this Section 10.4, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.11, 2.12, and 2.13 (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.13(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had
127

acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 10.4; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.15 as though it were a Lender.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.7 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.15 as though it were a Lender.
Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register in the United States 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 the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided 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 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 United States 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.
(f)          A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.11 and Section 2.12 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 Borrower’s prior written consent.  A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.13 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.13(f) and (g) as though it were a Lender.
(g)          Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation 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.
(h)          In the event that the Borrower or any Guarantor is the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding (such proceeding, a “Loan Party Insolvency”), each Term B Lender shall grant to the Administrative Agent a power of attorney, giving the Administrative Agent the right to vote each Term B Lender’s claims on all matters submitted to the Lenders for consent in respect of such Loan Party Insolvency, and, with respect to each matter submitted to the Lenders for approval, the Administrative Agent shall vote such claims in the same manner as the Lenders holding a majority of claims (excluding the claims of Term B Lenders) that voted on such matter.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders and each Term B Lender agree and acknowledge that the provisions set forth in this Section 10.4(h), constitute, to the extent set forth in this clause (h), a “subordination agreement” as such term is contemplated by, and utilized in,
128

Section 5.10(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, and, as such, would be enforceable for all purposes in any case where a Loan Party has filed for protection under the Bankruptcy Code;
Section 10.5.          Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.
(a)          THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT (EXCEPT, AS TO ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH THEREIN) AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW (WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF EXCEPT FOR SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW) OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(c)          The Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding described in paragraph (b) of this Section 10.5 and brought in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 10.5.  Each of the parties hereto irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
129

(d)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Clause 10.5, with respect to any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement involving a Mexican Loan Party, each of the parties hereto:

(ii)           waives any other jurisdiction to which it may be entitled by reason of its present or future domicile or otherwise.
(e)          Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to the service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.1.  Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
(f)          Each Mexican Loan Party hereby designates and appoints (i) Capital Services, Inc. (the “Process Agent”) with offices currently located at 1218 Central Avenue, Suite 100, Albany, New York 12205, and such other persons as may hereafter be selected by such Mexican Loan Party which agrees in writing to so serve as its agent, and (ii) as its conventional address the address of the Process Agent referred above or any other address notified in writing in the future by the Process Agent to the Mexican Loan Parties, to receive on its behalf service of all process in any proceedings brought pursuant to the Loan Documents in any court, such service being hereby acknowledged by the Mexican Loan Parties to be effective and binding service in every respect. Each Mexican Loan Party further agrees that service upon the Process Agent shall constitute valid and effective service upon it and that failure of Process Agent to give any notice of such service to such Mexican Loan Party shall not affect the validity of such service or any judgment rendered in any action or proceedings based thereon.
Section 10.6.          WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY 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 OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
130

Section 10.7.          Right of Setoff.  In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, each Lender shall have the right, at any time or from time to time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply against all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) of the Borrower at any time held or other obligations at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all Obligations held by such Lender irrespective of whether such Lender shall have made demand hereunder and although such Obligations may be unmatured.  Each Lender agree promptly to notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower after any such set-off and any application made by such Lender; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.  Each Lender agrees to apply all amounts collected from any such set-off to the Obligations before applying such amounts to any other Indebtedness or other obligations owed by the Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries to such Lender.
Section 10.8.          Counterparts; Integration.  This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto and thereto regarding the subject matters hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, regarding such subject matters.  Delivery of an executed counterpart to this Agreement or any other Loan Document by facsimile transmission or by electronic mail in pdf format shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.
Section 10.9.          Survival.  All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid.  The provisions of Sections 2.11, 2.12, 2.13 and 10.3 and Article IX shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.  All representations and warranties made herein, in the certificates, reports, notices, and other documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the making of the Loans.
Section 10.10.          Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability without
131

affecting the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or thereof; and the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
Section 10.11.          Confidentiality, Public Disclosure.  Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to take normal and reasonable precautions to maintain the confidentiality of any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, to the extent designated in writing as confidential and provided to it by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, except that such information may be disclosed (i) to any other party to this Agreement or to any Related Party of the Administrative Agent or any such Lender, including, without limitation, accountants, legal counsel and other advisors, (ii) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iii) to the extent requested by any regulatory agency or authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self- regulatory authority such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (iv) to the extent that such information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.11, or which becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Documents or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (vii) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.11, to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, or (B) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap or derivative or similar transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (viii) any rating agency, (ix) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization, (x) to any existing or prospective funding sources or any current or prospective investors of any fund or account managed, advised, or sub-advised by a Lender (or its Affiliates), in each case, to the extent such recipient has been instructed to keep such information confidential, or (xi) with the consent of the Borrower.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of any information as provided for in this Section 10.11 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 its own confidential information.
Each Loan Party agrees that neither it nor any of its Affiliates will now or in the future issue any press release or other public disclosure using the name of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates or referring to this Agreement or any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of such Administrative Agent or such Lender, except to the extent that such Loan Party or such Affiliate is required to do so under applicable law (in which event, such Loan Party or such Affiliate will consult with such Administrative Agent or such Lender before issuing such press release or other public disclosure).  Each Loan Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent and each Lender, after consultation with the Borrower, to advertise the
132

closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and to make appropriate announcements of the financial arrangements entered into among the parties hereto, as such Administrative Agent or such Lender shall deem appropriate, including, without limitation, on a home page or similar place for dissemination of information on the Internet or worldwide web, or in announcements commonly known as tombstones, in such trade publications, business journals, newspapers of general circulation and to such selected parties as such Administrative Agent or such Lender shall deem appropriate.
Section 10.12.          Interest Rate Limitation.
(a)          Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which may be treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by a Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 10.12 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate to the date of repayment (to the extent permitted by applicable law), shall have been received by such Lender.
(b)          Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.12, if any provision of any of the Loan Documents would obligate any Canadian Loan Party to make any payment of interest with respect to the Loans in an amount or calculated at a rate which would result in the receipt of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rates shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in a receipt by the applicable recipient of interest with respect to the Loans at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, as follows:  (i) first, by reducing the amount or rates of interest required to be paid by such Canadian Loan Party to the applicable recipient under the Loan Documents; and (ii) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to the applicable recipient which would constitute interest with respect to the Loans for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if the applicable recipient shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by that section of the Criminal Code (Canada), then such Canadian Loan Party shall be entitled, by notice in writing to the Lead Lender, to obtain reimbursement from the applicable recipient in an amount equal to such excess, and pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by the applicable recipient to the applicable Canadian Loan Party.  Any amount or rate of interest with respect to the Loans referred to in this Section 10.12 shall be determined in accordance with
133

generally accepted actuarial practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term that any Loans remain outstanding on the assumption that any charges, fees or expenses that fall within the meaning of “interest” (as defined in the Criminal Code (Canada)) shall, if they relate to a specific period of time, be prorated over that period of time and otherwise be prorated over the period from the Closing Date to the date of full and final payment of the Loans, and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by Lead Lender shall be conclusive for the purposes of such determination.
Section 10.13.          Corporate Seal The Borrower represents and warrants that neither it nor any other Loan Party is required to affix its corporate seal to this Agreement or any other Loan Document pursuant to any Requirement of Law.
Section 10.14.          Patriot Act.  The Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby notifies the Loan Parties that, pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.
Section 10.15.          No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.  In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower and each other Loan Party acknowledges and agrees and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding that (i) (A) the services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower, each other Loan Party and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, (B) each of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they have deemed appropriate, and (C) the Borrower and each other Loan Party is capable of evaluating and understanding, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person, and (B) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any obligation to the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their Affiliates with respect to the transaction contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, and each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders has no obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect
134

to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.
Section 10.16.          Location of Closing  All parties agree that closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement has occurred in New York.
Section 10.17.          Intercreditor Agreement Each Lender (a) hereby consents to the priority of the Liens securing the Obligations on the terms set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement, (b) hereby agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and (c) hereby authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement.  In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.
Section 10.18.          Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in one currency into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first mentioned currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s principal office on the Business Day preceding the date on which final judgment is given.
Section 10.19.          No Novation.  This Agreement constitutes an amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement and does not extinguish the obligations for the payment of money outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement or discharge or release the Obligations (including the Obligations of any predecessor corporations) under, and as defined in, the Existing Credit Agreement or the Lien or priority of any mortgage, pledge, security agreement or any other security therefor.  Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a substitution or novation of the Obligations outstanding under, and as defined in, the Existing Credit Agreement or instruments securing the same, which shall remain in full force and effect, except as modified hereby or by instruments or documents executed concurrently herewith.  Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement shall be construed as a release or other discharge of any Loan Party under the Existing Credit Agreement from any of its obligations and liabilities as a “Borrower” or a “Guarantor” thereunder.  Borrower and each Guarantor hereby (i) confirms and agrees that each Loan Document to which it is a party is, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect, as modified by this amendment and restatement and instruments or documents executed concurrently herewith, and is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects except that on and after the Closing Date all references in any such Loan Document to “the Credit Agreement,” “thereto,” “thereof,” “thereunder” or words of like import referring to the Existing Credit Agreement shall mean the Existing Credit Agreement as amended and restated by this Agreement and (ii) confirms and agrees that to the extent that any such Loan Document purports to assign or pledge to the Administrative Agent a security interest in or Lien on, any collateral as security for the obligations of the Loan Parties from time to time existing in respect of the Existing Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents, such pledge, assignment and/or grant of the security interest or Lien is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects.

ARTICLE XI

GUARANTY
Section 11.1.          Guaranty.
Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally and unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all Obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under any Loan Document, whether for principal, interest (including, without limitation, all interest that accrues after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding of any Borrower, whether or not a claim for post-filing interest is allowed in such Insolvency Proceeding), fees, commissions, expense reimbursements, indemnifications or otherwise (such obligations, to the extent not paid by the Borrower, being the “Guaranteed Obligations”), and agrees to pay any and all expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Secured Parties in enforcing any rights under the guaranty set forth in this Article XI.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor’s liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by the Borrower to the Secured Parties under any Loan Document but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of an Insolvency Proceeding involving any Borrower.
Section 11.2.          Guaranty Absolute.  Each Guarantor jointly and severally guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto.  Each Guarantor agrees that this Article XI constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection and waives any right to require that any resort be made by any Administrative Agent or any Lender to any Collateral.  The obligations of each Guarantor under this Article XI are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor to enforce such obligations, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any Loan Party or whether any Loan Party is joined in any such action or actions.  The liability of each Guarantor under this Article XI shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now or hereafter have in any way relating to, any or all of the following:
(a)          any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;
(b)          any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Loan Party or otherwise;
136

(c)          any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any Collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations;
(d)          the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that any Guarantor may have at any time against any Person, including, without limitation, any Secured Party;
(e)          any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate, limited liability company or partnership structure or existence of any Loan Party; or
(f)          any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Secured Parties that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Loan Party or any other guarantor or surety.
This Article XI shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Secured Parties or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.
Section 11.3.          Waiver.  Each Guarantor hereby waives (i) promptness and diligence, (ii) notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Article XI and any requirement that the Secured Parties exhaust any right or take any action against any Loan Party or any other Person or any Collateral, (iii) any right to compel or direct any Secured Party to seek payment or recovery of any amounts owed under this Article XI from any one particular fund or source or to exhaust any right or take any action against any other Loan Party, any other Person or any Collateral, (iv) any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or Lien on any property subject thereto or exhaust any right to take any action against any Loan Party, any other Person or any Collateral, and (v) any other defense available to any Guarantor.  Each Guarantor agrees that the Secured Parties shall have no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Guarantor or against, or in payment of, any or all of the Obligations.  Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated herein and that the waiver set forth in this Section 11.3 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.  Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to revoke this Article XI, and acknowledges that this Article XI is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future.
Section 11.4.          Continuing Guaranty; Assignments This Article XI is a continuing guaranty and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the later of the cash payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted) and all other amounts payable under this Article XI and the Maturity Date, (b) be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns and (c) inure to the

 promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender and, upon its receipt of the notice from the affected Lender, Borrowers may, by notice to such affected Lender (I) require such Lender to furnish to Borrowers a statement setting forth the basis for adjusting such LIBOR Rate and the method for determining the amount of such adjustment, or (II) repay the Loans bearing interest based upon the LIBOR Rate with respect to which such adjustment is made.
(C)     In the event that any change in market conditions or any law, regulation, treaty, or directive, or any change therein or in the interpretation of application thereof, shall at any time after the date hereof, in the reasonable opinion of any Lender, make it unlawful or impractical for such Lender to fund or maintain Loans bearing interest based upon the LIBOR Rate or to continue such funding or maintaining, or to determine or charge interest rates at the LIBOR Rate, such Lender shall give notice of such changed circumstances to Agent and Borrowers and Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender and (I) in the case of any outstanding Loans of such Lender bearing interest based upon the LIBOR Rate, the date specified in such Lender's notice shall be deemed to be the last day of the Interest Period of such Loans, and interest upon such Lender's Loans thereafter shall accrue interest at Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, and (II) such Loans shall continue to accrue interest at Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin until such Lender determines that it would no longer be unlawful or impractical to maintain such Loans at the LIBOR Rate.
(D)     Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, neither Agent nor any Lender is required actually to acquire eurodollar deposits to fund or otherwise match fund any Obligation as to which interest accrues based on the LIBOR Rate.
(c)          [Reserved].
Section 2.2          Interest, Interest Calculations and Certain Fees.
(a)          Interest.  From and following the Closing Date, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, Loans and the other Obligations shall bear interest at the sum of the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin.  Interest on the Loans shall be paid in arrears on the first (1st) day of each month and on the maturity of such Loans, whether by acceleration or otherwise.  Interest on all other Obligations shall be payable upon demand.  For purposes of calculating interest, all funds transferred to the Payment Account for application to any Revolving Loans shall be subject to a one Business Day clearance period and all interest accruing on such funds during such clearance period shall accrue for the benefit of Agent, and not for the benefit of Lenders.
(b)          Unused Line Fee.  From and following the Closing Date, Borrowers shall pay Agent, for the benefit of all Lenders committed to make Revolving Loans, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, a fee in an amount equal to (i) (A) the Revolving Loan Commitment minus (B) the average daily balance of the sum of the Revolving Loan
46

Outstandings during the preceding month, multiplied by (ii) one-half of one percent (0.50%) per annum.  Such fee is to be paid monthly in arrears on the first day of each month.
(c)          [Reserved].
(d)          [Reserved].
(e)          [Reserved].
(f)          Deferred Revolving Loan Origination Fee.  If Lenders' funding obligations in respect of the Revolving Loan Commitment under this Agreement terminate for any reason (whether by voluntary termination by Borrowers, by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default or otherwise) prior to the Commitment Expiry Date, Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the benefit of all Lenders committed to make Revolving Loans on the Closing Date, a fee as compensation for the costs of such Lenders being prepared to make funds available to Borrowers under this Agreement, equal to an amount determined by multiplying the Revolving Loan Commitment by the following applicable percentage amount:  (i) three percent (3.0%) for the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, (ii) two percent (2.0%) for the period commencing on the first anniversary of the Closing Date and ending on the second anniversary of the Closing Date, (iii) one percent (1.0%) for the period commencing on the second anniversary of the Closing Date and ending one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the Commitment Expiry Date, and (iv) zero percent (0%) thereafter.  All fees payable pursuant to this paragraph shall be deemed fully earned and non-refundable as of the Closing Date.
(g)          [Reserved].
(h)          [Reserved].
(i)          Audit Fees.  Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for its own account and not for the benefit of any other Lenders, all reasonable fees and expenses in connection with audits and inspections of Borrowers' books and records, audits, valuations or appraisals of the Collateral, audits of Borrowers' compliance with applicable Laws and such other matters as Agent shall deem appropriate, which shall be due and payable on the first Business Day of the month following the date of issuance by Agent of a written request for payment thereof to Borrowers.
(j)          Wire Fees.  Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for its own account and not for the account of any other Lenders, on written demand, fees for incoming and outgoing wires made for the account of Borrowers, such fees to be based on Agent's then current wire fee schedule (available upon written request of Borrowers).
(k)          Late Charges.  If payments of principal (other than a final installment of principal upon the Termination Date), interest due on the Obligations, or any other amounts due hereunder or under the other Financing Documents are not timely made and remain overdue for a period of five (5) days, Borrowers, without notice or demand by Agent, promptly shall pay to Agent, for its own account and not for the benefit of any other Lenders, as additional compensation to Agent in administering the Obligations, an amount equal to three percent (3.0%) of each delinquent payment.
47

(l)          Computation of Interest and Related Fees.  All interest and fees under each Financing Document shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed.  The date of funding of a Loan shall be included in the calculation of interest.  The date of payment of a Loan shall be excluded from the calculation of interest.  If a Loan is repaid on the same day that it is made, one (1) day's interest shall be charged.  For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest to which any rate calculated on the basis of a period of time different from the actual number of days in the year (360 days, for example) is equivalent is the stated rate multiplied by the actual number of days in the year (365 or 366, as applicable) and divided by the number of days in the shorter period (360 days, in the example), and the parties hereto acknowledge that there is a material distinction between the nominal and effective rates of interest and that they are capable of making the calculations necessary to compare such rates and that the calculations herein are to be made using the nominal rate method and not on any basis that gives effect to the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest.  Each Borrower confirms that it understands and is able to calculate the rate of interest applicable to advances made under this Agreement based on the methodology for calculating per annum rates provided for herein.  Each Borrower irrevocably agrees not to plead or assert, whether by way of defence or otherwise, in any proceeding relating to this Agreement or any Financing Documents, that the interest payable hereunder and the calculation thereof has not been adequately disclosed to Borrowers as required pursuant to Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada).
Section 2.3          Notes.  The portion of the Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced, if so requested by such Lender, by one or more promissory notes executed by Borrowers on a joint and several basis (each, a "Note") in an original principal amount equal to such Lender's Revolving Loan Commitment Amount.
Section 2.4          ReservesAgent shall have the right (but not the obligation) at any time, to establish and increase or decrease reserves against the Borrowing Base, including without limitation the Overdue AP Reserve.
Section 2.5          Letters of Credit and Letter of Credit Fees.
(a)          Letter of Credit.  On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the Revolving Loan Commitment may be used by Borrowers, in addition to the making of Revolving Loans hereunder, for the issuance, prior to that date which is one year prior to the Termination Date, by (i) Agent, of letters of credit, Guarantees or other agreements or arrangements (each, a "Support Agreement") to induce an LC Issuer to issue or increase the amount of, or extend the expiry date of, one or more Letters of Credit and (ii) a Lender, identified by Agent, as an LC Issuer, of one or more Lender Letters of Credit, so long as, in each case:

(i)          Agent shall have received a Notice of LC Credit Event at least five (5) Business Days before the relevant date of issuance, increase or extension; and
(ii)          after giving effect to such issuance, increase or extension, (A) the aggregate Letter of Credit Liabilities do not exceed $0, and (B) the Revolving Loan Outstandings do not exceed the Revolving Loan Limit.
48


Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to obligate any Lender to issue, increase the amount of or extend the expiry date of any Letter of Credit, which act or acts, if any, shall be subject to agreements to be entered into from time to time between Borrowers and such Lender.  Each Lender that is an LC Issuer hereby agrees to give Agent prompt written notice of each issuance of a Lender Letter of Credit by such Lender and each payment made by such Lender in respect of Lender Letters of Credit issued by such Lender.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, Borrowers agree and acknowledge that no part of the Revolving Loan Commitment will be available for the issuance of a Letter of Credit until such times as Agent notifies Borrower Representative that a Lender party to this Agreement is an LC Issuer.
Nothing in this Section 2.5 will restrict Borrowers from using proceeds of Revolving Loans to cash collateralize letters of credit that are issued by third parties for the account of any Borrower less than one (1) year prior to the Termination Date.

(b)          Letter of Credit Fee.  Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, a letter of credit fee with respect to the Letter of Credit Liabilities for each Letter of Credit, computed for each day from the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to the date that is the last day a drawing is available under such Letter of Credit, at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin then applicable to Loans bearing interest based upon the LIBOR Rate.  Such fee shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each calendar month prior to the Termination Date and on such date.  In addition, Borrowers agree to pay promptly to the LC Issuer any fronting or other fees that it may charge in connection with any Letter of Credit.
(c)          Reimbursement Obligations of Borrowers.  If either (i) Agent shall make a payment to an LC Issuer pursuant to a Support Agreement, or (ii) any Lender shall notify Agent that it has made payment in respect of, a Lender Letter of Credit, (A) the applicable Borrower shall reimburse Agent or such Lender, as applicable, for the amount of such payment by the end of the day on which Agent or such Lender shall make such payment and (B) Borrowers shall be deemed to have immediately requested that Revolving Lenders make a Revolving Loan, in a principal amount equal to the amount of such payment (but solely to the extent such Borrower shall have failed to directly reimburse Agent or, with respect to Lender Letters of Credit, the applicable LC Issuer, for the amount of such payment).  Agent shall promptly notify Revolving Lenders of any such deemed request and each Revolving Lender hereby agrees to make available to Agent not later than noon (Eastern time) on the Business Day following such notification from Agent such Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Loan.  Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to fund such Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Loan described in the immediately preceding sentence, unaffected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, (x) the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default, (y) the fact that, whether before or after giving effect to the making of any such Revolving Loan, the Revolving Loan Outstandings exceed or will exceed the Revolving Loan Limit, and/or (z) the non-satisfaction of any conditions set forth in Section 7.2.  Agent hereby agrees to apply the gross proceeds of each Revolving Loan deemed made pursuant to this Section 2.5(c) in satisfaction of Borrowers' reimbursement obligations arising pursuant to this Section 2.5(c).  Borrowers shall pay interest, on demand, on all amounts so paid by Agent
49

pursuant to any Support Agreement or to any applicable Lender in honoring a draw request under any Lender Letter of Credit for each day from the date of such payment until Borrowers reimburse Agent or the applicable Lender therefor (whether pursuant to clause (A) or (B) of the first sentence of this subsection (c)) at a rate per annum equal to the sum of two percent (2%) plus the interest rate applicable to Revolving Loans for such day.
(d)          Reimbursement and Other Payments by Borrowers.  The obligations of each Borrower to reimburse Agent and/or the applicable LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.5(c) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under all circumstances whatsoever, including the following:

(i)          any lack of validity or enforceability of, or any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from, any Letter of Credit or any related document;
(ii)          the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which any Borrower may have at any time against the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, the LC Issuer (including any claim for improper payment), Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with any Financing Document or any unrelated transaction, provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim;
(iii)          any statement or any 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 whatsoever;
(iv)          any affiliation between the LC Issuer and Agent; or
(v)          to the extent permitted under applicable law, any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(e)          Deposit Obligations of Borrowers.  In the event any Letters of Credit are outstanding at the time that Borrowers prepay in full or are required to repay the Obligations or the Revolving Loan Commitment is terminated, Borrowers shall (i) deposit with Agent for the benefit of all Revolving Lenders cash in an amount equal to one hundred ten percent (110%) of the aggregate outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities to be available to Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of issuers of Letters of Credit, to reimburse payments of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit and pay any fees and expenses related thereto, and (ii) prepay the fee payable under Section 2.5(b) with respect to such Letters of Credit for the full remaining terms of such Letters of Credit assuming that the full amount of such Letters of Credit as of the date of such repayment or termination remain outstanding until the end of such remaining terms.  Upon termination of any such Letter of Credit and so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the unearned portion of such prepaid fee attributable to such Letter of Credit shall be refunded to Borrowers, together with the deposit described in the preceding clause (i) attributable to such Letter of Credit, but only to the extent not previously applied by Agent in the manner described herein.

50

(f)          Participations in Support Agreements and Lender Letters of Credit.
(i)          Concurrently with the issuance of each Supported Letter of Credit, Agent shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Revolving Lender, and each such Revolving Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and immediately to have purchased and received from Agent, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in, to the extent of such Lender's Pro Rata Share, Agent's Support Agreement liabilities and obligations in respect of such Supported Letter of Credit and Borrowers' Reimbursement Obligations with respect thereto.  Concurrently with the issuance of each Lender Letter of Credit, the LC Issuer in respect thereof shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Revolving Lender, and each such Revolving Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and immediately to have purchased and received from such LC Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in, to the extent of such Lender's Pro Rata Share, such Lender Letter of Credit and Borrowers' Reimbursement Obligations with respect thereto.  Any purchase obligation arising pursuant to the immediately two preceding sentences shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstances whatsoever.
(ii)          If either (A) Agent makes any payment or disbursement under any Support Agreement and/or (B) an LC Issuer makes any payment or disbursement under any Lender Letter of Credit, and (I) Borrowers have not reimbursed Agent or the applicable LC Issuer, as applicable, in full for such payment or disbursement in accordance with Section 2.5(c), or (II) any reimbursement under any Support Agreement or Lender Letter of Credit received by Agent or any LC Issuer, as applicable, from any Credit Party is or must be returned or rescinded upon or during any bankruptcy or reorganization of any Credit Party or otherwise, each Revolving Lender shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to pay to Agent or the applicable LC Issuer, as applicable, its Pro Rata Share of such payment or disbursement (but no such payment shall diminish the Obligations of Borrowers under Section 2.5(c)).  To the extent any such Revolving Lender shall not have made such amount available to Agent or the applicable LC Issuer, as applicable, before 12:00 Noon (Eastern time) on the Business Day on which such Lender receives notice from Agent or the applicable LC Issuer, as applicable, of such payment or disbursement, or return or rescission, as applicable, such Lender agrees to pay interest on such amount to Agent or the applicable LC Issuer, as applicable, forthwith on demand accruing daily at the Federal Funds Rate, for the first three (3) days following such Lender's receipt of such notice, and thereafter at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin in respect of Revolving Loans.  Any such Revolving Lender's failure to make available to Agent or the applicable LC Issuer, as applicable, its Pro Rata Share of any such payment or disbursement, or return or rescission, as applicable, shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available such other Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share of such payment, but no Revolving Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make available such other Lender's Pro Rata Share of any such payment or disbursement, or return or rescission.
51


Section 2.6          General Provisions Regarding Payment; Loan Account.
(a)          All payments to be made by each Borrower under any Financing Document, including payments of principal and interest made hereunder and pursuant to any other Financing Document, and all fees, expenses, indemnities and reimbursements, shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim.  If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension (it being understood and agreed that, solely for purposes of calculating financial covenants and computations contained herein and determining compliance therewith, if payment is made, in full, on any such extended due date, such payment shall be deemed to have been paid on the original due date without giving effect to any extension thereto).  Any payments received in the Payment Account before 12:00 Noon (Eastern time) on any date shall be deemed received by Agent on such date, and any payments received in the Payment Account at or after 12:00 Noon (Eastern time) on any date shall be deemed received by Agent on the next succeeding Business Day.
(b)          Agent shall maintain a loan account (the "Loan Account") on its books to record Loans and other extensions of credit made by Lenders hereunder or under any other Financing Document, and all payments thereon made by each Borrower.  All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with Agent's customary accounting practices as in effect from time to time.  The balance in the Loan Account, as recorded in Agent's books and records at any time shall be conclusive and binding evidence of the amounts due and owing to Agent by each Borrower absent manifest error; provided, however, that any failure to so record or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect any Borrower's duty to pay all amounts owing hereunder or under any other Financing Document.  Agent shall endeavor to provide Borrowers with a monthly statement regarding the Loan Account (but neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability if Agent shall fail to provide any such statement).  Unless any Borrower notifies Agent of any objection to any such statement (specifically describing the basis for such objection) within ninety (90) days after the date of receipt thereof, it shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrowers in all respects as to all matters reflected therein.
Section 2.7          Maximum Interest.  In no event shall the interest charged with respect to the Loans or any other Obligations of any Borrower under any Financing Document exceed the maximum amount permitted under the laws of the State of Maryland, the Criminal Code (Canada) or the Laws of any other applicable jurisdiction.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or elsewhere, if at any time the rate of interest payable hereunder or under any Note or other Financing Document (the "Stated Rate") would exceed the highest rate of interest permitted under any applicable law to be charged (the "Maximum Lawful Rate"), then for so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate would be so exceeded, the rate of interest payable shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the Stated Rate is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, each Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by law, continue to pay interest at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received is equal to the total interest which would have been received had the Stated Rate been (but for the operation of this provision) the interest rate payable.  Thereafter, the interest rate payable shall be the Stated Rate unless and until the Stated Rate again would exceed the Maximum Lawful Rate, in which event this provision shall again apply.  In no event shall the
52

total interest received by any Lender exceed the amount which it could lawfully have received had the interest been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. If, notwithstanding the prior sentence, any Lender has received interest hereunder in excess of the Maximum Lawful Rate, such excess amount shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Loans or to other amounts (other than interest) payable hereunder, and if no such principal or other amounts are then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to Borrowers.  In computing interest payable with reference to the Maximum Lawful Rate applicable to any Lender, such interest shall be calculated at a daily rate equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate divided by the number of days in the year in which such calculation is made.
Section 2.8          Taxes; Capital Adequacy.
(a)          All payments of principal and interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Financing Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future Taxes, except as required by applicable Law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and if any such withholding or deduction is in respect of any Indemnified Taxes, then Credit Parties shall pay such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by Agent and each Lender will equal the full amount Agent and such Lender would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required (including, without limitation, such withholdings and deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.8).  After payment of any Tax by a Credit Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.8, such Credit Party shall promptly forward to Agent the original or a certified copy of an official receipt, a copy of the return reporting such payment, or other documentation satisfactory to Agent evidencing such payment to such authority. Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(b)          The Credit Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify Agent and Lenders, within ten (10) days after demand thereof, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.8) payable or paid by Agent or any Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Agent or any Lender and any expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (including without limitation reasonable attorneys' and tax advisor fees and expenses), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate in reasonable detail as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower Representative by a Lender (with a copy to Agent), or by Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(c)          The Borrowers shall indemnify Agent and Lenders, within ten (10) days after demand thereof, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.8) payable
53

or paid by Agent or any Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Agent or any Lender and any expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate in reasonable detail as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrowers by a Lender (with a copy to Agent), or by Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(i)      Each Lender that is not a "United States person" (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is a party hereto on the Closing Date or purports to become an assignee of an interest pursuant to Section 11.17(a) after the Closing Date (unless such Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment) (each such Lender a "Foreign Lender") shall, to the extent permitted by Law, execute and deliver to Borrower Representative and Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative or Agent) whichever of the following is applicable:  (A) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Financing Document, two (2) properly completed and executed originals of United States Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") Forms W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to the "interest" article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Financing Documents, two (2) properly completed and executed originals of IRS Forms W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to the "business profits" or "other income" article of such tax treaty; (B) two (2) executed originals of Form W-8ECI (or successor form); (C) 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 substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a "10 percent shareholder" of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a "controlled foreign corporation" described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a "U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate") and (y) two (2) executed originals of IRS Forms W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or successor form); (D) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, two (2) executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or successor form), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, IRS Form W-9 (or successor form), and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; or (E) other applicable forms, certificates or documents prescribed by the IRS.  Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower Representative and Agent in writing of its legal inability to do
54

so.  In addition, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, such forms shall be delivered by each Foreign Lender upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Foreign Lender.  Each Foreign Lender shall promptly notify Borrower Representative at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to Borrower Representative (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose).
(ii)       Each Lender that is a "United States person" (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is a party hereto on the Closing Date or purports to become an assignee of an interest pursuant to Section 11.17(a) after the Closing Date (unless such Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment) shall, to the extent permitted by Law, provide to Borrower Representative and Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative or Agent), a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-9 or any successor form certifying as to such Lender's entitlement to an exemption from U.S. backup withholding and other applicable forms, certificates or documents prescribed by the IRS or reasonably requested by Borrower Representative or Agent.  Each such Lender shall promptly notify Borrowers at any time it determines that any certificate previously delivered to Borrower Representative (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. governmental authorities for such purposes) is no longer valid.
(iii)     Any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower Representative and Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative or Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. Federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrowers or Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.
(d)          If any Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund in respect of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.8 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.8), then it shall promptly pay an amount equal to such refund to Borrowers, net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender or of Agent with respect thereto, including any Taxes; provided, however, that Borrowers, upon the written request of such Lender or Agent, agree to repay any amount paid over to Borrowers to such Lender or to Agent (plus any related penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such Lender or Agent is required, for any reason, to disgorge or otherwise repay such refund.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.8, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.8(d) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise
55

imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This Section 2.8 shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(e)          If a payment made to a Lender under any Financing Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower Representative and Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower Representative or 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 Borrower Representative or Agent as may be necessary for Borrowers and Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (e), "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
(f)          Each Lender shall severally indemnify Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Credit Party has not already indemnified Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Credit Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender's failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.17 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Agent in connection with any Financing Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Financing Document or otherwise payable by Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount due to Agent under this paragraph (f).
(g)          Each party's obligations under Section 2.8(a) through (f) shall survive the resignation or replacement of Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations hereunder.
(h)          If any Lender shall reasonably determine that the adoption or taking effect of, or any change in, any applicable Law regarding capital adequacy, in each instance, after the Closing Date, or any change after the Closing Date in the interpretation, administration or application thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation, administration or application thereof, or the compliance by any Lender or any Person controlling such Lender with any request, guideline or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of Law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency adopted or otherwise taking effect after the Closing Date, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or such controlling Person's capital as a consequence of such Lender's obligations hereunder to a level below that which such
56

Lender or such controlling Person could have achieved but for such adoption, taking effect, change, interpretation, administration, application or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender's or such controlling Person's policies with respect to capital adequacy) then from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (which demand shall be accompanied by a certificate setting forth the basis for such demand and a calculation of the amount thereof in reasonable detail, a copy of which shall be furnished to Agent), Borrowers shall promptly pay to such Lender such additional amount as will compensate such Lender or such controlling Person for such reduction, so long as such amounts have accrued on or after the day which is two hundred seventy (270) days prior to the date on which such Lender first made demand therefor; provided that notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a "change in applicable Law", regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.
(i)          If any Lender requests compensation under any of Section 2.1(b)(iv) or Section 2.8(h), or requires Borrowers to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.8, then, upon the written request of Borrower Representative, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder (subject to the provisions of Section 11.17) to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or materially reduce amounts payable pursuant to any such Section, as the case may be, in the future, (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and (iii) would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender (as determined in its sole good faith discretion).  Without limitation of the provisions of Section 12.14, each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable and documented, out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
Section 2.9          Appointment of Borrower Representative.
(a)          Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes Borrower Representative as its agent and attorney-in-fact to request and receive Loans in the name or on behalf of such Borrower and any other Borrowers, deliver Notices of Borrowing, Notices of LC Credit Events and Borrowing Base Certificates, give instructions with respect to the disbursement of the proceeds of the Loans, requesting Letters of Credit, giving and receiving all other notices and consents hereunder or under any of the other Financing Documents and taking all other actions (including in respect of compliance with covenants) in the name or on behalf of any Borrower or Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement and the other Financing Documents.  Agent and Lenders may disburse the Loans to such bank account of Borrower Representative or a Borrower or otherwise make such Loans to a Borrower, and LC Issuer may provide such Letters of Credit for the account of a Borrower, in each case as Borrower Representative may designate or direct, without notice to any other Borrower.  Notwithstanding anything to the
57

contrary contained herein, Agent may at any time and from time to time require that Loans to or for the account of any Borrower be disbursed directly to an operating account of such Borrower.
(b)          Borrower Representative hereby accepts the appointment by Borrowers to act as the agent and attorney-in-fact of Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.9.  Borrower Representative shall ensure that the disbursement of any Loans that are at any time requested by or to be remitted to or for the account of a Borrower, or the issuance of any Letter of Credit requested on behalf of a Borrower hereunder, shall be remitted or issued to or for the account of such Borrower.
(c)          Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes Borrower Representative as its agent to receive statements on account and all other notices from Agent, Lenders and LC Issuer with respect to the Obligations or otherwise under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Financing Documents.
(d)          Any notice, election, representation, warranty, agreement or undertaking made or delivered by or on behalf of any Borrower by Borrower Representative shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made or delivered by such Borrower, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower to the same extent as if made or delivered directly by such Borrower.
(e)          No resignation by or termination of the appointment of Borrower Representative as agent and attorney-in-fact as aforesaid shall be effective, except after ten (10) Business Days' prior written notice to Agent.  If the Borrower Representative resigns under this Agreement, Borrowers shall be entitled to appoint a successor Borrower Representative (which shall be a Borrower and shall be reasonably acceptable to Agent as such successor).  Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor Borrower Representative hereunder, such successor Borrower Representative shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Borrower Representative and the term "Borrower Representative" shall mean such successor Borrower Representative for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents, and the retiring or terminated Borrower Representative's appointment, powers and duties as Borrower Representative shall be thereupon terminated.
Section 2.10          Joint and Several Liability; Rights of Contribution; Subordination and Subrogation.
(a)          Borrowers are defined collectively to include all Persons named as one of the Borrowers herein; provided, however, that any references herein to "any Borrower", "each Borrower" or similar references, shall be construed as a reference to each individual Person named as one of the Borrowers herein.  Each Person so named shall be jointly and severally liable for all of (and guarantees) the obligations of Borrowers under this Agreement.  Each Borrower, individually, expressly understands, agrees and acknowledges, that the credit facilities would not be made available on the terms herein in the absence of the collective credit of all of the Persons named as the Borrowers herein, the joint and several liability of all such Persons, and the cross-collateralization of the collateral of all such Persons.  Accordingly, each Borrower individually acknowledges that the benefit to each of the Persons named as one of the Borrowers as a whole constitutes reasonably equivalent value, regardless of the amount of the credit
58

facilities actually borrowed by, advanced to, or the amount of collateral provided by, any individual Borrower.  In addition, each entity named as one of the Borrowers herein hereby acknowledges and agrees that all of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, conditions, agreements and other terms contained in this Agreement shall be applicable to and shall be binding upon and measured and enforceable individually against each Person named as one of the Borrowers herein as well as all such Persons when taken together.  By way of illustration, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the terms of Section 10.1 of this Agreement are to be applied to each individual Person named as one of the Borrowers herein (as well as to all such Persons taken as a whole), such that the occurrence of any of the events described in Section 10.1 of this Agreement as to any Person named as one of the Borrowers herein shall constitute an Event of Default even if such event has not occurred as to any other Persons named as the Borrowers or as to all such Persons taken as a whole.
(b)          Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, it is intended that the joint and several nature of the liability of each Borrower for the Obligations and the Liens granted by Borrowers to secure the Obligations, not constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance (as defined below).  Consequently, Agent, Lenders and each Borrower agree that if the liability of a Borrower for the Obligations, or any Liens granted by such Borrower securing the Obligations would, but for the application of this sentence, constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, the liability of such Borrower and the Liens securing such liability shall be valid and enforceable only to the maximum extent that would not cause such liability or such Lien to constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, and the liability of such Borrower and this Agreement shall automatically be deemed to have been amended accordingly.  For purposes hereof, the term "Fraudulent Conveyance" means a fraudulent conveyance under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of Title II of the Bankruptcy Code or a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under the applicable provisions of any fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer law or similar law of any state, province, nation or other governmental unit, as in effect from time to time.
(c)          Agent is hereby authorized, without notice or demand (except as otherwise specifically required under this Agreement) and without affecting the liability of any Borrower hereunder, at any time and from time to time, to (i) renew, extend or otherwise increase the time for payment of the Obligations; (ii) with the written agreement of any Borrower, change the terms relating to the Obligations or otherwise modify, amend or change the terms of any Note or other agreement, document or instrument now or hereafter executed by any Borrower and delivered to Agent for any Lender; (iii) accept partial payments of the Obligations; (iv) take and hold any Collateral for the payment of the Obligations or for the payment of any guaranties of the Obligations and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such Collateral; (v) apply any such Collateral and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Agent, in its sole discretion, may determine; and (vi) settle, release, compromise, collect or otherwise liquidate the Obligations and any Collateral therefor in any manner, all guarantor and surety defenses being hereby waived by each Borrower.  Without limitations of the foregoing, with respect to the Obligations, each Borrower hereby makes and adopts each of the agreements and waivers set forth in each Guarantee, the same being incorporated hereby by reference.  Except as specifically provided in this Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents, Agent shall have the exclusive right to determine the time and manner of application of any payments or credits, whether received from any Borrower or any other source, and such determination shall be binding on all Borrowers.  All such payments and credits may be applied, reversed and reapplied, in whole or in part, to any of
59

the Obligations that Agent shall determine, in its sole discretion, without affecting the validity or enforceability of the Obligations of the other Borrower.
(d)          Each Borrower hereby agrees that, except as hereinafter provided, its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of (i) the absence of any attempt to collect the Obligations from any obligor or other action to enforce the same; (ii) the waiver or consent by Agent with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the Obligations, or any part thereof, or any other agreement heretofore, now or hereafter executed by a Borrower and delivered to Agent; (iii) failure by Agent to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for the Obligations; (iv) the institution of any proceeding under any Insolvency Law, by or against a Borrower or Agent's election in any such proceeding of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code (or similar provision in any Insolvency Law); (v) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by a Borrower as debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code (or similar provision in any Insolvency Law); (vi) the disallowance, under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code (or similar provision in any Insolvency Law), of all or any portion of Agent's claim(s) for repayment of any of the Obligations; or (vii) any other circumstance other than payment in full of the Obligations which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor or surety.
(e)          The Borrowers hereby agree, as between themselves, that to the extent that Agent, on behalf of Lenders, shall have received from any Borrower any Recovery Amount (as defined below), then the paying Borrower shall have a right of contribution against each other Borrower in an amount equal to such other Borrower's contributive share of such Recovery Amount; provided, however, that in the event any Borrower suffers a Deficiency Amount (as defined below), then the Borrower suffering the Deficiency Amount shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against the other Borrowers in an amount equal to the Deficiency Amount; and provided, further, that in no event shall the aggregate amounts so reimbursed by reason of the contribution of any Borrower equal or exceed an amount that would, if paid, constitute or result in Fraudulent Conveyance.  Until all Obligations have been paid and satisfied in full, no payment made by or for the account of a Borrower including, without limitation, (i) a payment made by such Borrower on behalf of the liabilities of any other Borrower, or (ii) a payment made by any other Guarantor under any Guarantee, shall entitle such Borrower, by subrogation or otherwise, to any payment from such other Borrower or from or out of such other Borrower's property.  The right of each Borrower to receive any contribution under this Section 2.10(e) or by subrogation or otherwise from any other Borrower shall be subordinate in right of payment to the Obligations and such Borrower shall not exercise any right or remedy against such other Borrower or any property of such other Borrower by reason of any performance of such Borrower of its joint and several obligations hereunder, until the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and satisfied in full, and no Borrower shall exercise any right or remedy with respect to this Section 2.10(e) until the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and satisfied in full.  As used in this Section 2.10(e), the term "Recovery Amount" means the amount of proceeds received by or credited to Agent from the exercise of any remedy of Lenders under this Agreement or the other Financing Documents, including, without limitation, the sale of any Collateral.  As used in this Section 2.10(e), the term "Deficiency Amount" means any amount that is less than the entire amount a Borrower is entitled to receive by way of contribution or subrogation from, but that has not been paid by, the other Borrowers in respect of any Recovery
60

Amount attributable to the Borrower entitled to contribution, until the Deficiency Amount has been reduced to $0 through contributions and reimbursements made under the terms of this Section 2.10(e) or otherwise.
(f)          Each Qualified ECP Credit Party hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Credit Party to honor all of its obligations under this Section 2.10 in respect of Swap Obligations.  The obligations of each Qualified ECP Credit Party under this Section 2.10 shall remain in full force and effect until the Commitments are terminated, all Letters of Credit have expired or been cancelled, replaced, backstopped or cash collateralized, and all Obligations payable by the Borrowers and the Guarantors under this Agreement and all other Financing Documents shall have been paid in full. Each Qualified ECP Credit Party intends that this Section 2.10(f) constitute, and this Section 2.10(f) shall be deemed to constitute, a "keepwell, support, or other agreement" for the benefit of each other Credit Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.
(g)          Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein or in any other Financing Document, if a "secured creditor" (as that term is defined under the BIA) is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction not to include a Person to whom obligations are owed on a joint and several basis, then such Person's Obligations (and the Obligations of each other Canadian Credit Party or any other applicable Credit Party), to the extent such Obligations are secured, shall be several obligations and not joint and several obligations.
Section 2.11          Collections and Lockbox Account.
(a)          Borrowers shall maintain one or more Lockbox Accounts with a United States depository institution and with a Canadian depositary institution, in each case designated from time to time by Agent (the "Lockbox Banks"), subject to the provisions of this Agreement, and shall execute with each Lockbox Bank a Deposit Account Control Agreement and such other agreements related to such Lockbox as Agent may require.  Borrowers shall ensure that all collections of Accounts are paid directly from Account Debtors (i) to a Lockbox, for deposit into the Lockbox Account and/or (ii) directly into the Lockbox Account; provided, however, unless Agent shall otherwise direct by written notice to Borrowers, Borrowers shall be permitted to cause Account Debtors who are individuals to pay Accounts directly to Borrowers, which Borrowers shall then administer and apply in the manner required below. All funds deposited into a Lockbox Account shall be transferred into the Payment Account by the close of each Business Day.
(b)          [Reserved].
(c)          Notwithstanding anything in any lockbox agreement or Deposit Account Control Agreement to the contrary, Borrowers agree that they shall be liable for any fees and charges in effect from time to time and charged by the Lockbox Bank in connection with the Lockboxes and the Lockbox Accounts, and that Agent shall have no liability therefor.  Borrowers hereby indemnify and agree to hold Agent harmless from any and all liabilities, claims, losses and demands whatsoever, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, arising from or relating to actions of Agent or the Lockbox Bank pursuant to this Section or any
61

lockbox agreement or Deposit Account Control Agreement or similar agreement, except to the extent of such losses arising solely from Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(d)          Agent shall apply, on a daily basis, all funds transferred into the Payment Account pursuant to this Section to reduce the outstanding Revolving Loans in such order of application as Agent shall elect.  If as the result of collections of Accounts pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Section, a credit balance exists with respect to the Loan Account, such credit balance shall not accrue interest in favor of Borrowers, but Agent shall transfer such funds into an account designated by Borrower Representative for so long as no Event of Default exists.
(e)          To the extent that any collections of Accounts or proceeds of other Collateral are not sent directly to a Lockbox or a Lockbox Account but are received by any Borrower, such collections shall be held in trust for the benefit of Agent pursuant to an express trust created hereby and immediately remitted, in the form received, to the applicable Lockbox or Lockbox Account.  No such funds received by any Borrower shall be commingled with other funds of the Borrowers.  If any funds received by any Borrower are commingled with other funds of the Borrowers, or are required to be deposited to a Lockbox or Lockbox Account and are not so deposited within two (2) Business Days, then Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for its own account and not for the account of any other Lenders, a compliance fee equal to $500 for each day that any such conditions exist.
(f)          Borrowers acknowledge and agree that compliance with the terms of this Section is essential, and that Agent and Lenders will suffer immediate and irreparable injury and have no adequate remedy at law, if any Borrower, through acts or omissions, causes or permits Account Debtors to send payments other than to the Lockbox or Lockbox Accounts or if any Borrower fails to promptly deposit collections of Accounts or proceeds of other Collateral in the Lockbox Account as herein required.  Accordingly, in addition to all other rights and remedies of Agent and Lenders hereunder, Agent shall have the right to seek specific performance of the Borrowers' obligations under this Section, and any other equitable relief as Agent may deem necessary or appropriate, and Borrowers waive any requirement for the posting of a bond in connection with such equitable relief.
(g)          Borrowers shall not, and Borrowers shall not suffer or permit any Credit Party to, (i) withdraw any amounts from any Lockbox Account, (ii) change the procedures or sweep instructions under the agreements governing any Lockbox Accounts, or (iii) send to or deposit in any Lockbox Account any funds other than payments made with respect to and proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral.  Borrowers shall, and shall cause each Credit Party to, cooperate with Agent in the identification and reconciliation on a daily basis of all amounts received in or required to be deposited into the Lockbox Accounts.  If more than five percent (5%) of the collections of Accounts received by Borrowers during any given fifteen (15) day period is not identified or reconciled to the reasonable satisfaction of Agent within ten (10) Business Days of receipt, Agent shall not be obligated to make further advances under this Agreement until such amount is identified or is reconciled to the reasonable satisfaction of Agent, as the case may be.  In addition, if any such amount cannot be identified or reconciled to the reasonable satisfaction of Agent, Agent may utilize its own staff or, if it deems necessary, engage an outside auditor, in either case at Borrowers' expense (which in the case of Agent's own
62

staff shall be in accordance with Agent's then prevailing customary charges (plus expenses)), to make such examination and report as may be necessary to identify and reconcile such amount.
(h)          If any Borrower breaches its obligation to direct payments of the proceeds of the Collateral to the Lockbox Account, Agent, as the irrevocably made, constituted and appointed true and lawful attorney for Borrowers, may, by the signature or other act of any of Agent's authorized representatives (without requiring any of them to do so), direct any Account Debtor to pay proceeds of the Collateral to Borrowers by directing payment to the Lockbox Account.
Section 2.12          Termination; Restriction on Termination.
(a)          Termination by Lenders.  In addition to the rights set forth in Section 10.2, Agent may, and at the direction of Required Lenders shall, terminate this Agreement without notice upon or after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.
(b)          Termination by Borrowers.  Upon at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to Agent and Lenders, Borrowers may, at its option, terminate this Agreement; provided, however, that no such termination shall be effective until Borrowers have (i) paid or collateralized to Agent's satisfaction all of the Obligations in immediately available funds, all Letters of Credit and Support Agreements have expired, terminated or have been cash collateralized to Agent's satisfaction and (ii) complied with Section 2.2(f).  Any notice of termination given by Borrowers shall be irrevocable unless all Lenders otherwise agree in writing and no Lender shall have any obligation to make any Loans or issue or procure any Letters of Credit or Support Agreements on or after the termination date stated in such notice.  Borrowers may elect to terminate this Agreement in its entirety only.  No section of this Agreement or type of Loan available hereunder may be terminated singly.
(c)          Effectiveness of Termination.  All of the Obligations shall be immediately due and payable upon the Termination Date.  All undertakings, agreements, covenants, warranties and representations of Borrowers contained in the Financing Documents shall survive any such termination and Agent shall retain its Liens in the Collateral and Agent and each Lender shall retain all of its rights and remedies under the Financing Documents notwithstanding such termination until all Obligations have been discharged or paid, in full, in immediately available funds, including, without limitation, all Obligations under Section 2.2(f) and the terms of any fee letter resulting from such termination.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or the payment in full of the Obligations, Agent shall not be required to terminate its Liens in the Collateral unless, with respect to any loss or damage Agent may incur as a result of dishonored checks or other items of payment received by Agent from Borrower or any Account Debtor and applied to the Obligations, Agent shall, at its option, (i) have received a written agreement satisfactory to Agent, executed by Borrowers and by any Person whose loans or other advances to Borrowers are used in whole or in part to satisfy the Obligations, indemnifying Agent and each Lender from any such loss or damage or (ii) have retained cash Collateral or other Collateral for such period of time as Agent, in its discretion, may deem necessary to protect Agent and each Lender from any such loss or damage.
63

ARTICLE 3 - REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
To induce Agent and Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans and other credit accommodations contemplated hereby, each Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Agent and each Lender that:
Section 3.1          Existence and Power.  Each Credit Party is an entity as specified on Schedule 3.1, is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction specified on Schedule 3.1 and no other jurisdiction, has the same legal name as it appears in such Credit Party's Organizational Documents and an organizational identification number (if any), in each case as specified on Schedule 3.1, and has all powers and all Permits necessary or desirable in the operation of its business as presently conducted or as proposed to be conducted, except where the failure to have such Permits could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Each Credit Party is qualified to do business as a foreign entity in each jurisdiction in which it is required to be so qualified, which jurisdictions as of the Closing Date are specified on Schedule 3.1, except where the failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Except as set forth on Schedule 3.1, no Credit Party (a) has had, over the five (5) year period preceding the Closing Date, any name other than its current name, or (b) was incorporated or organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than its current jurisdiction of incorporation or organization.
Section 3.2          Organization and Governmental Authorization; No Contravention.  The execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party of the Financing Documents to which it is a party are within its powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary action pursuant to its Organizational Documents, require no further action by or in respect of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority and do not violate, conflict with or cause a breach or a default under (a) any Law applicable to any Credit Party or any of the Organizational Documents of any Credit Party, or (b) any agreement or instrument binding upon it, except for such violations, conflicts, breaches or defaults as could not, with respect to this clause (b), reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Section 3.3          Binding Effect.  Each of the Operative Documents to which any Credit Party is a party constitutes a valid and binding agreement or instrument of such Credit Party, enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with its respective terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws relating to the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by general equitable principles.
Section 3.4          Capitalization.  The authorized equity securities of each of the Credit Parties as of the Closing Date are as set forth on Schedule 3.4.  All issued and outstanding equity securities of each of the Credit Parties are duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable, free and clear of all Liens other than those in favor of Agent for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, and such equity securities were issued in compliance with all applicable Laws.  The identity of the holders of the equity securities of each of the Credit Parties and the percentage of their fully-diluted ownership of the equity securities of each of the Credit Parties as of the Closing Date is set forth on Schedule 3.4.  No shares of the capital stock or other equity securities of any Credit Party, other than those described above, are issued and outstanding as of the Closing Date.  Except as set forth on Schedule 3.4, as of the Closing Date there are no
64

preemptive or other outstanding rights, options, warrants, conversion rights or similar agreements or understandings for the purchase or acquisition from any Credit Party of any equity securities of any such entity.
Section 3.5          Financial Information.  All information delivered to Agent and pertaining to the financial condition of any Credit Party fairly presents the financial position of such Credit Party as of such date in conformity with GAAP (and as to unaudited financial statements, subject to normal year-end adjustments and the absence of footnote disclosures).  Since December 31, 2018, there has been no material adverse change in the business, operations, properties, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Credit Parties on a consolidated basis other than entering into the Deferred Prosecution Agreement and related SEC settlement, the disposition of the "Logistics" and "A&S" business lines, and the amendments to the Borrowers' revolving credit agreement prior to the Closing Date.
Section 3.6          Litigation.  Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6 as of the Closing Date, and except as hereafter disclosed to Agent in writing, there is no Litigation pending against, or to such Borrower's knowledge threatened against or affecting, any Credit Party or, to such Borrower's knowledge, any party to any Operative Document other than a Credit Party that could reasonably be expected to result in liability to Borrowers or their Subsidiaries in excess of $500,000, other than litigation relating to automobile liability arising in the Ordinary Course of Business that is covered by insurance and not in excess of $1,000,000.  There is no Litigation pending in which an adverse decision could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which in any manner draws into question the validity of any of the Operative Documents.
Section 3.7          Ownership of Property.  Each Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is the lawful owner of, has good and marketable title to and is in lawful possession of, or has valid leasehold interests in, all Accounts and other material assets and properties (real or personal, tangible, intangible or mixed) purported or reported to be owned or leased (as the case may be) by such Person.
Section 3.8          No Default.  No Event of Default, or to such Borrower's knowledge, Default, has occurred and is continuing.  No Credit Party is in breach or default under or with respect to any contract, agreement, lease or other instrument to which it is a party or by which its property is bound or affected, which breach or default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Section 3.9          Labor Matters.  As of the Closing Date, there are no strikes or similar labor disputes pending or, to any Borrower's knowledge, threatened against any Credit Party.  Hours worked and payments made to the employees of the Credit Parties have been in compliance in all material respect with the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Law dealing with such matters.  All payments due from the Credit Parties, or for which any claim may be made against any of them, on account of wages and employee and retiree health and welfare insurance and other benefits have been paid or accrued as a liability on their books, as the case may be.  The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents will not give rise to a right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound.
65

Section 3.10          Regulated Entities.  No Credit Party is an "investment company" or a company "controlled" by an "investment company" or a "subsidiary" of an "investment company," all within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940.
Section 3.11          Margin Regulations.  None of the proceeds from the Loans have been or will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any "margin stock" (as defined in Regulation U of the Federal Reserve Board), for the purpose of reducing or retiring any indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase or carry any "margin stock" or for any other purpose which might cause any of the Loans to be considered a "purpose credit" within the meaning of Regulation T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board.

91

reports or evidence concerning the Collateral as Agent may reasonably request from time to time.

Section 10.3          Remedies.
(a)           Upon the occurrence of and during the continuance of an Event of Default under this Agreement or the other Financing Documents, Agent, in addition to all other rights, options, and remedies granted to Agent under this Agreement or at law or in equity, may exercise, either directly or through one or more assignees or designees, all rights and remedies granted to it under all Financing Documents and under the UCC and PPSA in effect in the applicable jurisdiction(s) and under any other applicable law; including, without limitation:
(i)      the right to take possession of, send notices regarding, and collect directly the Collateral, with or without judicial process;
(ii)     the right to (by its own means or with judicial assistance) enter any of Borrowers' premises and take possession of the Collateral, or render it unusable, or to render it usable or saleable, or dispose of the Collateral on such premises in compliance with subsection (iii) below and to take possession of Borrowers' original books and records, to obtain access to Borrowers' data processing equipment, computer hardware and software relating to the Collateral and to use all of the foregoing and the information contained therein in any manner Agent deems appropriate, without any liability for rent, storage, utilities, or other sums, and Borrowers shall not resist or interfere with such action (if Borrowers' books and records are prepared or maintained by an accounting service, contractor or other third party agent, Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize such service, contractor or other agent, upon notice by Agent to such Person that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to deliver to Agent or its designees such books and records, and to follow Agent's instructions with respect to further services to be rendered);
(iii)    the right to require Borrowers at Borrowers' expense to assemble all or any part of the Collateral and make it available to Agent at any place designated by Lender;
96

(iv)    the right to notify postal authorities to change the address for delivery of Borrowers' mail to an address designated by Agent and to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to any Borrower; and/or
(v)     the right to enforce Borrowers' rights against Account Debtors and other obligors, including, without limitation, (i) the right to collect Accounts directly in Agent's own name (as agent for Lenders) and to charge the collection costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, to Borrowers, and (ii) the right, in the name of Agent or any designee of Agent or Borrowers, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Accounts by mail, telephone, telegraph or otherwise, including, without limitation, verification of Borrowers' compliance with applicable Laws.  Borrowers shall cooperate fully with Agent in an effort to facilitate and promptly conclude such verification process.  Such verification may include contacts between Agent and applicable federal, state and local regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over the Borrowers' affairs, all of which contacts Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize.
(b)          Each Borrower agrees that a notice received by it at least ten (10) days before the time of any intended public sale, or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of the Collateral is to be made, shall be deemed to be reasonable notice of such sale or other disposition.  If permitted by applicable law, any perishable Collateral which threatens to speedily decline in value or which is sold on a recognized market may be sold immediately by Agent without prior notice to Borrowers.  At any sale or disposition of Collateral, Agent may (to the extent permitted by applicable law) purchase all or any part of the Collateral, free from any right of redemption by Borrowers, which right is hereby waived and released.  Each Borrower covenants and agrees not to interfere with or impose any obstacle to Agent's exercise of its rights and remedies with respect to the Collateral.  Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale.  Agent may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.  Agent may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral.  Agent may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like.  This procedure will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.  If Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit, Borrowers will be credited only with payments actually made by the purchaser, received by Agent and applied to the indebtedness of the purchaser.  In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Agent may resell the Collateral and Borrowers shall be credited with the proceeds of the sale. Borrowers shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all Obligations.
(c)          Without restricting the generality of the foregoing and for the purposes aforesaid, each Borrower hereby appoints and constitutes Agent its lawful attorney-in-fact with full power of substitution in the Collateral, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to (i) use unadvanced funds remaining under this Agreement or which may be reserved, escrowed or set aside for any purposes hereunder at any time, or to advance funds in excess of the face amount of the Revolving Loan Commitments, (ii) pay, settle or compromise all existing bills and claims, which may be Liens or security interests, or to avoid such bills and claims becoming Liens against the Collateral, (iii) execute all applications and certificates in the name of such Borrower and to prosecute and defend all actions or proceedings in connection
97

with the Collateral, and (iv) do any and every act which such Borrower might do in its own behalf; it being understood and agreed that this power of attorney in this subsection (c) shall be a power coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked.
(d)          Agent and each Lender is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrowers' labels, mask works, rights of use of any name, any other Intellectual Property and advertising matter, and any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Agent's exercise of its rights under this Article, Borrowers' rights under all licenses (whether as licensor or licensee) and all franchise agreements inure to Agent's and each Lender's benefit.
Section 10.4          Cash Collateral.  If (a) any Event of Default specified in Section 10.1(e) or 10.1(f) shall occur, (b) the Obligations shall have otherwise been accelerated pursuant to Section 10.2, or (c) the Revolving Loan Commitment and the obligations of Agent and Lenders with respect thereto shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 10.2, then without any request or the taking of any other action by Agent or Lenders, Borrowers shall immediately comply with the provisions of Section 2.5(e) with respect to the deposit of cash collateral to secure the existing Letter of Credit Liability and future payment of related fees.
Section 10.5          Default Rate of Interest.  At the election of Agent or Required Lenders, after the occurrence of an Event of Default and for so long as it continues, (a) the Loans and other Obligations shall bear interest at rates that are three percent (3.0%) per annum in excess of the rates otherwise payable under this Agreement, and (b) the fee described in Section 2.5(b) shall increase by a rate that is three percent (3.0%) in excess of the rate otherwise payable under such Section; provided, however, that in the case of any Event of Default specified in Section 10.1(e) or 10.1(f) above, such default rates shall apply immediately and automatically without the need for any election or action of any kind on the part of Agent or any Lender.
Section 10.6          Setoff Rights.  During the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized by each Borrower at any time or from time to time, with reasonably prompt subsequent notice to such Borrower (any prior or contemporaneous notice being hereby expressly waived) to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all (a) balances held by such Lender or any of such Lender's Affiliates at any of its offices for the account of such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (regardless of whether such balances are then due to such Borrower or its Subsidiaries), and (b) other property at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or for the account of such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, against and on account of any of the Obligations; except that no Lender shall exercise any such right without the prior written consent of Agent.  Any Lender exercising a right to set off shall purchase for cash (and the other Lenders shall sell) interests in each of such other Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Obligations as would be necessary to cause all Lenders to share the amount so set off with each other Lender in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share of the Obligations.  Each Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that any Lender and any of such Lender's Affiliates may exercise its right to set off with respect to the Obligations as provided in this Section 10.6.
98

Section 10.7          Application of Proceeds.
(a)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Borrower irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments at any time or times thereafter received by Agent from or on behalf of such Borrower or any Guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, and, as between Borrowers on the one hand and Agent and Lenders on the other, Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and to reapply any and all payments received against the Obligations in such manner as Agent may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous application by Agent.
(b)          Following the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, but absent the occurrence and continuance of an Acceleration Event, Agent shall apply any and all payments received by Agent in respect of the Obligations, and any and all proceeds of Collateral received by Agent, in such order as Agent may from time to time elect.
(c)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if an Acceleration Event shall have occurred, and so long as it continues, Agent shall apply any and all payments received by Agent in respect of the Obligations, and any and all proceeds of Collateral received by Agent, in the following order:  first, to all fees, costs, indemnities, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred by or owing to Agent with respect to this Agreement, the other Financing Documents or the Collateral; second, to all fees, costs, indemnities, liabilities, obligations and expenses incurred by or owing to any Lender with respect to this Agreement, the other Financing Documents or the Collateral; third, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations (including any interest which, but for the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such amounts); fourth, to the principal amount of the Obligations outstanding and to provide cash collateral to secure any and all Letter of Credit Liability and future payment of related fees, as provided for in Section 2.5(e); fifth to any other indebtedness or obligations of Borrowers owing to Agent or any Lender under the Financing Documents; and sixth, to the Obligations owing to any Eligible Swap Counterparty in respect of any Swap Contracts.  Any balance remaining shall be delivered to Borrowers or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such balance or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.  In carrying out the foregoing, (y) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to the application to the next succeeding category, and (z) each of the Persons entitled to receive a payment in any particular category shall receive an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of amounts available to be applied pursuant thereto for such category.
Section 10.8          Waivers.
(a)          Except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower waives:  (i) presentment, demand and protest, and notice of presentment, dishonor, intent to accelerate, acceleration, protest, default, nonpayment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any or all Financing Documents, any notes, commercial paper, accounts, contracts, documents, Instruments, Chattel Paper and Guarantees at any time held by Lenders on which any Borrower may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever Lenders may do in this
99

regard; (ii) all rights to notice and a hearing prior to Agent's or any Lender's taking possession or control of, or to Agent's or any Lender's replevy, attachment or levy upon, any Collateral or any bond or security which might be required by any court prior to allowing Agent or any Lender to exercise any of its remedies; and (iii) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal and exemption Laws.  Each Borrower acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel of its choices and decisions with respect to this Agreement, the other Financing Documents and the transactions evidenced hereby and thereby.
(b)          Each Borrower for itself and all its successors and assigns, (i) agrees that its liability shall not be in any manner affected by any indulgence, extension of time, renewal, waiver, or modification granted or consented to by Lender; (ii) consents to any indulgences and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers, or modifications that may be granted by Agent or any Lender with respect to the payment or other provisions of the Financing Documents, and to any substitution, exchange or release of the Collateral, or any part thereof, with or without substitution, and agrees to the addition or release of any Borrower, endorsers, guarantors, or sureties, or whether primarily or secondarily liable, without notice to any other Borrower and without affecting its liability hereunder; (iii) agrees that its liability shall be unconditional and without regard to the liability of any other Borrower, Agent or any Lender for any tax on the indebtedness; and (iv) to the fullest extent permitted by law, expressly waives the benefit of any statute or rule of law or equity now provided, or which may hereafter be provided, which would produce a result contrary to or in conflict with the foregoing.
(c)          To the extent that Agent or any Lender may have acquiesced in any noncompliance with any requirements or conditions precedent to the closing of the Loans or to any subsequent disbursement of Loan proceeds, such acquiescence shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver by Agent or any Lender of such requirements with respect to any future disbursements of Loan proceeds and Agent may at any time after such acquiescence require Borrowers to comply with all such requirements.  Any forbearance by Agent or Lender in exercising any right or remedy under any of the Financing Documents, or otherwise afforded by applicable law, including any failure to accelerate the maturity date of the Loans, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any right or remedy nor shall it serve as a novation of the Obligations or as a reinstatement of the Loans or a waiver of such right of acceleration or the right to insist upon strict compliance of the terms of the Financing Documents.  Agent's or any Lender's acceptance of payment of any sum secured by any of the Financing Documents after the due date of such payment shall not be a waiver of Agent's and such Lender's right to either require prompt payment when due of all other sums so secured or to declare a default for failure to make prompt payment.  The procurement of insurance or the payment of taxes or other Liens or charges by Agent as the result of an Event of Default shall not be a waiver of Agent's right to accelerate the maturity of the Loans, nor shall Agent's receipt of any condemnation awards, insurance proceeds, or damages under this Agreement operate to cure or waive any Credit Party's default in payment of sums secured by any of the Financing Documents.
(d)          Without limiting the generality of anything contained in this Agreement or the other Financing Documents, each Borrower agrees that if an Event of Default is continuing (i) Agent and Lenders shall not be subject to any "one action" or "election of remedies" law or rule, and (ii) all Liens and other rights, remedies or privileges provided to Agent or Lenders shall remain in full force and effect until Agent or Lenders have exhausted all remedies against the
100

Collateral and any other properties owned by Borrowers and the Financing Documents and other security instruments or agreements securing the Loans have been foreclosed, sold and/or otherwise realized upon in satisfaction of Borrowers' obligations under the Financing Documents.
(e)          Nothing contained herein or in any other Financing Document shall be construed as requiring Agent or any Lender to resort to any part of the Collateral for the satisfaction of any of Borrowers' obligations under the Financing Documents in preference or priority to any other Collateral, and Agent may seek satisfaction out of all of the Collateral or any part thereof, in its absolute discretion in respect of Borrowers' obligations under the Financing Documents.  In addition, Agent shall have the right from time to time to partially foreclose upon any Collateral in any manner and for any amounts secured by the Financing Documents then due and payable as determined by Agent in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, the following circumstances:  (i) in the event any Borrower defaults beyond any applicable grace period in the payment of one or more scheduled payments of principal and/or interest, Agent may foreclose upon all or any part of the Collateral to recover such delinquent payments, or (ii) in the event Agent elects to accelerate less than the entire outstanding principal balance of the Loans, Agent may foreclose all or any part of the Collateral to recover so much of the principal balance of the Loans as Lender may accelerate and such other sums secured by one or more of the Financing Documents as Agent may elect.  Notwithstanding one or more partial foreclosures, any unforeclosed Collateral shall remain subject to the Financing Documents to secure payment of sums secured by the Financing Documents and not previously recovered.
(f)          To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, waives in the event of foreclosure of any or all of the Collateral any equitable right otherwise available to any Credit Party which would require the separate sale of any of the Collateral or require Agent or Lenders to exhaust their remedies against any part of the Collateral before proceeding against any other part of the Collateral; and further in the event of such foreclosure each Borrower does hereby expressly consent to and authorize, at the option of Agent, the foreclosure and sale either separately or together of each part of the Collateral.
Section 10.9          Injunctive Relief.  The parties acknowledge and agree that, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any Credit Party's obligations under any Financing Documents, Agent and Lenders may have no adequate remedy in money damages and, accordingly, shall be entitled to an injunction (including, without limitation, a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, writ of attachment, or order compelling an audit) against such breach or threatened breach, including, without limitation, maintaining any cash management and collection procedure described herein.  However, no specification in this Agreement of a specific legal or equitable remedy shall be construed as a waiver or prohibition against any other legal or equitable remedies in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any provision of this Agreement.  Each Credit Party waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the requirement of the posting of any bond in connection with such injunctive relief.  By joining in the Financing Documents as a Credit Party, each Credit Party specifically joins in this Section as if this Section were a part of each Financing Document executed by such Credit Party.
101

Section 10.10          Marshalling; Payments Set Aside.  Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in payment of any or all of the Obligations.  To the extent that Borrower makes any payment or Agent enforces its Liens or Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such enforcement or set-off is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, or required to be repaid by anyone, then to the extent of such recovery, the Obligations or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or set-off had not occurred.
ARTICLE 11 - AGENT
Section 11.1          Appointment and Authorization.  Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes Agent to enter into each of the Financing Documents to which it is a party (other than this Agreement) on its behalf and to take such actions as Agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Financing Documents as are delegated to Agent by the terms thereof, together with all such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Subject to the terms of Section 11.16 and to the terms of the other Financing Documents, Agent is authorized and empowered to amend, modify, or waive any provisions of this Agreement or the other Financing Documents on behalf of Lenders.  The provisions of this Article 11 are solely for the benefit of Agent and Lenders and neither any Borrower nor any other Credit Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof.  In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, Agent shall act solely as agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Borrower or any other Credit Party.  Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder, or under the Financing Documents, by or through its agents, servicers, trustees, investment managers or employees.
Without limiting the powers of the Agent, for the purposes of holding any hypothec granted to the Attorney (as defined below) pursuant to the laws of the Province of Québec to secure the prompt payment and performance of any and all Obligations by any Credit Party, each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agent and, to the extent necessary, ratifies the appointment and authorization of the Agent, to act as the hypothecary representative of the creditors as contemplated under Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec (in such capacity, the "Attorney"), and to enter into, to take and to hold on their behalf, and for their benefit, any hypothec, and to exercise such powers and duties that are conferred upon the Attorney under any related deed of hypothec.  The Attorney shall: (a) have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise, except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms hereof, all rights and remedies given to the Attorney pursuant to any such deed of hypothec and applicable law, and (b) benefit from and be subject to all provisions hereof with respect to the Agent mutatis mutandis, including, without limitation, all such provisions with respect to the liability or responsibility to and indemnification by the Lenders and Credit Parties.  Any person who becomes a Lender shall, by its execution of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, be deemed to have consented to and confirmed the Attorney as the person acting as hypothecary representative holding the aforesaid hypothecs as aforesaid and to have ratified, as of the date it becomes a Lender, all actions taken by the Attorney in such capacity.  The substitution of the
102

Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11 also constitute the substitution of the Attorney.
Section 11.2          Agent and Affiliates.  Agent shall have the same rights and powers under the Financing Documents as any other Lender and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not Agent, and Agent and its Affiliates may lend money to, invest in and generally engage in any kind of business with each Credit Party or Affiliate of any Credit Party as if it were not Agent hereunder.
Section 11.3          Action by Agent.  The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature.  Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender.  Nothing in this Agreement or any of the Financing Documents is intended to or shall be construed to impose upon Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any of the Financing Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein.
Section 11.4          Consultation with Experts.  Agent may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.
Section 11.5          Liability of Agent.  Neither Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, trustees, investment managers, servicers or employees shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or not taken by it in connection with the Financing Documents, except that Agent shall be liable with respect to its specific duties set forth hereunder but only to the extent of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in the discharge thereof as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.  Neither Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, trustees, investment managers, servicers or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify (a) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with any Financing Document or any borrowing hereunder; (b) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements specified in any Financing Document; (c) the satisfaction of any condition specified in any Financing Document; (d) the validity, effectiveness, sufficiency or genuineness of any Financing Document, any Lien purported to be created or perfected thereby or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection therewith; (e) the existence or non-existence of any Default or Event of Default; or (f) the financial condition of any Credit Party.  Agent shall not incur any liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement, or other writing (which may be a bank wire, facsimile or electronic transmission or similar writing) believed by it to be genuine or to be signed by the proper party or parties.  Agent shall not be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made by it in good faith and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error the sole recourse of any Lender to whom payment was due but not made, shall be to recover from other Lenders any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to be entitled (and such other Lenders hereby agree to return to such Lender any such erroneous payments received by them).
Section 11.6          Indemnification.  Each Lender shall, in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, indemnify Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrowers) upon demand against any
103

cost, expense (including counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) that Agent may suffer or incur in connection with the Financing Documents or any action taken or omitted by Agent hereunder or thereunder.  If any indemnity furnished to Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against even if so directed by Required Lenders until such additional indemnity is furnished.
Section 11.7          Right to Request and Act on Instructions.  Agent may at any time request instructions from Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the Financing Documents Agent is permitted or desires to take or to grant, and if such instructions are promptly requested, Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Person for refraining from any action or withholding any approval under any of the Financing Documents until it shall have received such instructions from Required Lenders or all or such other portion of Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement.  Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents in accordance with the instructions of Required Lenders (or all or such other portion of Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement) and, notwithstanding the instructions of Required Lenders (or such other applicable portion of Lenders), Agent shall have no obligation to take any action if it believes, in good faith, that such action would violate applicable Law or exposes Agent to any liability for which it has not received satisfactory indemnification in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6.
Section 11.8          Credit Decision.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender, 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 also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking any action under the Financing Documents.
Section 11.9          Collateral Matters.  Lenders irrevocably authorize Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to (a) release any Lien granted to or held by Agent under any Security Document (i) upon termination of the Loan Commitment and payment in full of all Obligations, and, to the extent required by Agent in its sole discretion, the expiration, termination or cash collateralization (to the satisfaction of Agent) of all Swap Contracts secured, in whole or in part, by any Collateral; or (ii) constituting property sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted under any Financing Document (it being understood and agreed that Agent may conclusively rely without further inquiry on a certificate of a Responsible Officer as to the sale or other disposition of property being made in full compliance with the provisions of the Financing Documents); and (b) subordinate any Lien granted to or held by Agent under any Security Document to a Permitted Lien that is allowed to have priority over the Liens granted to or held by Agent pursuant to the definition of "Permitted Liens".  Upon request by Agent at any
104

time, Lenders will confirm Agent's authority to release and/or subordinate particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 11.9.
Section 11.10          Agency for Perfection.  Agent and each Lender hereby appoint each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting Agent's security interest in assets which, in accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code in any applicable jurisdiction, can be perfected by possession or control.  Should any Lender (other than Agent) obtain possession or control of any such assets, such Lender shall notify Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Agent's request therefor, shall deliver such assets to Agent or in accordance with Agent's instructions or transfer control to Agent in accordance with Agent's instructions.  Each Lender agrees that it will not have any right individually to enforce or seek to enforce any Security Document or to realize upon any Collateral for the Loan unless instructed to do so by Agent (or consented to by Agent), it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised only by Agent.
Section 11.11          Notice of Default.  Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to Agent for the account of Lenders, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default".  Agent will notify each Lender of its receipt of any such notice.  Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by Required Lenders (or all or such other portion of Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement) in accordance with the terms hereof.  Unless and until Agent has received any such request, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interests of Lenders.
Section 11.12          Assignment by Agent; Resignation of Agent; Successor Agent.
(a)          Agent may at any time assign its rights, powers, privileges and duties hereunder to (i) another Lender, or (ii) any Person to whom Agent, in its capacity as a Lender, has assigned (or will assign, in conjunction with such assignment of agency rights hereunder) 50% or more of its Loan, in each case without the consent of Lenders or Borrowers.  Following any such assignment, Agent shall give notice to Lenders and Borrowers.  An assignment by Agent pursuant to this subsection (a) shall not be deemed a resignation by Agent for purposes of subsection (b) below.
(b)          Without limiting the rights of Agent to designate an assignee pursuant to subsection (a) above, Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to Lenders and Borrowers.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within ten (10) Business Days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Agent; provided, however, that if Agent shall notify Borrowers and Lenders that no Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice from Agent that no Person has accepted such appointment and, from and following delivery of such notice, (i) the retiring Agent shall be
105

discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Financing Documents, and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this paragraph.
(c)          Upon (i) an assignment permitted by subsection (a) above, or (ii) the acceptance of a successor's appointment as Agent pursuant to subsection (b) above, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Financing Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph).  The fees payable by Borrowers to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrowers and such successor.  After the retiring Agent's resignation hereunder and under the other Financing Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 11.12 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent and its sub-agents in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Agent was acting or was continuing to act as Agent.
Section 11.13          Payment and Sharing of Payment.
(a)          Revolving Loan Advances, Payments and Settlements; Interest and Fee Payments.
(i)     Agent shall have the right, on behalf of Revolving Lenders to disburse funds to Borrowers for all Revolving Loans requested or deemed requested by Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.  Agent shall be conclusively entitled to assume, for purposes of the preceding sentence, that each Revolving Lender, other than any Non-Funding Lenders, will fund its Pro Rata Share of all Revolving Loans requested by Borrowers.  Each Revolving Lender shall reimburse Agent on demand, in accordance with the provisions of the immediately following paragraph, for all funds disbursed on its behalf by Agent pursuant to the first sentence of this clause (i), or if Agent so requests, each Revolving Lender will remit to Agent its Pro Rata Share of any Revolving Loan before Agent disburses the same to a Borrower.  If Agent elects to require that each Revolving Lender make funds available to Agent, prior to a disbursement by Agent to a Borrower, Agent shall advise each Revolving Lender by telephone, facsimile or e-mail of the amount of such Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan requested by such Borrower no later than noon (Eastern time) on the date of funding of such Revolving Loan, and each such Revolving Lender shall pay Agent on such date such Revolving Lender's Pro Rata Share of such requested Revolving Loan, in same day funds, by wire transfer to the Payment Account, or such other account as may be identified by Agent to Revolving Lenders from time to time.  If any Lender fails to pay the amount of its Pro Rata Share of any funds advanced by Agent pursuant to the first sentence of this clause (i) within one (1) Business Day after Agent's demand, Agent shall promptly notify Borrower Representative, and Borrowers shall immediately repay such amount to Agent.  Any repayment required by Borrowers pursuant to this Section 11.13 shall be accompanied by accrued interest thereon from and including the date such amount is made available to a Borrower to but excluding the date of payment at the rate
106

of interest then applicable to Revolving Loans.  Nothing in this Section 11.13 or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Financing Documents shall be deemed to require Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Agent or any Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.
(ii)     On a Business Day of each week as selected from time to time by Agent, or more frequently (including daily), if Agent so elects (each such day being a "Settlement Date"), Agent will advise each Revolving Lender by telephone, facsimile or e-mail of the amount of each such Revolving Lender's percentage interest of the Revolving Loan balance as of the close of business of the Business Day immediately preceding the Settlement Date.  In the event that payments are necessary to adjust the amount of such Revolving Lender's actual percentage interest of the Revolving Loans to such Lender's required percentage interest of the Revolving Loan balance as of any Settlement Date, the Revolving Lender from which such payment is due shall pay Agent, without setoff or discount, to the Payment Account before 1:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the Business Day following the Settlement Date the full amount necessary to make such adjustment.  Any obligation arising pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever.  In the event settlement shall not have occurred by the date and time specified in the second preceding sentence, interest shall accrue on the unsettled amount at the rate of interest then applicable to Revolving Loans.
(iii)    On each Settlement Date, Agent shall advise each Revolving Lender by telephone, facsimile or e-mail of the amount of such Revolving Lender's percentage interest of principal, interest and fees paid for the benefit of Revolving Lenders with respect to each applicable Revolving Loan, to the extent of such Revolving Lender's Revolving Loan Exposure with respect thereto, and shall make payment to such Revolving Lender before 1:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the Business Day following the Settlement Date of such amounts in accordance with wire instructions delivered by such Revolving Lender to Agent, as the same may be modified from time to time by written notice to Agent; provided, however, that, in the case such Revolving Lender is a Defaulted Lender, Agent shall be entitled to set off the funding short-fall against that Defaulted Lender's respective share of all payments received from any Borrower.
(iv)    On the Closing Date, Agent, on behalf of Lenders, may elect to advance to Borrowers the full amount of the initial Loans to be made on the Closing Date prior to receiving funds from Lenders, in reliance upon each Lender's commitment to make its Pro Rata Share of such Loans to Borrowers in a timely manner on such date.  If Agent elects to advance the initial Loans to Borrower in such manner, Agent shall be entitled to receive all interest that accrues on the Closing Date on each Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Loans unless Agent receives such Lender's Pro Rata Share of such Loans before 3:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the Closing Date.
(v)    It is understood that for purposes of advances to Borrowers made pursuant to this Section 11.13, Agent will be using the funds of Agent, and pending
107

settlement, (A) all funds transferred from the Payment Account to the outstanding Revolving Loans shall be applied first to advances made by Agent to Borrowers pursuant to this Section 11.13, and (B) all interest accruing on such advances shall be payable to Agent.
(vi)   The provisions of this Section 11.13(a) shall be deemed to be binding upon Agent and Lenders notwithstanding the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, or any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding pertaining to any Borrower or any other Credit Party.
(b)          [Reserved].
(c)          Return of Payments.
(i)      If Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Agent from a Borrower and such related payment is not received by Agent, then Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, together with interest accruing on a daily basis at the Federal Funds Rate.
(ii)      If Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Agent under this Agreement must be returned to any Borrower or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Financing Document, Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender.  In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to any Borrower or such other Person, without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.
(d)          Defaulted Lenders.  The failure of any Defaulted Lender to make any payment required by it hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations to make payment, but neither any other Lender nor Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any Defaulted Lender to make any payment required hereunder.  Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, a Defaulted Lender shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Financing Document or constitute a "Lender" (or be included in the calculation of "Required Lenders" hereunder) for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Financing Document.
(e)          Sharing of Payments.  If any Lender shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of setoff or otherwise) on account of any Loan (other than pursuant to the terms of Section 2.8(d)) in excess of its Pro Rata Share of payments entitled pursuant to the other provisions of this Section 11.13, such Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders such participations in extensions of credit made by such other Lenders (without recourse, representation or warranty) as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter
108

required to be returned or otherwise recovered from such purchasing Lender, such portion of such purchase shall be rescinded and each Lender which has sold a participation to the purchasing Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the ratable extent of such return or recovery, without interest.  Each Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this clause (e) may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including pursuant to Section 10.6) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrowers in the amount of such participation).  If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this clause (e) applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of Lenders entitled under this clause (e) to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.
Section 11.14          Right to Perform, Preserve and Protect.  If any Credit Party fails to perform any obligation hereunder or under any other Financing Document, Agent itself may, but shall not be obligated to, cause such obligation to be performed at Borrowers' expense.  Agent is further authorized by Borrowers and Lenders to make expenditures from time to time which Agent, in its reasonable business judgment, deems necessary or desirable to (a) preserve or protect the business conducted by Borrowers, the Collateral, or any portion thereof, and/or (b) enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loan and other Obligations.  Each Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse Agent on demand for any and all costs, liabilities and obligations incurred by Agent pursuant to this Section 11.14.  Each Lender hereby agrees to indemnify Agent upon demand for any and all costs, liabilities and obligations incurred by Agent pursuant to this Section 11.14, in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6.
Section 11.15          Additional Titled Agents.  Except for rights and powers, if any, expressly reserved under this Agreement to any bookrunner, arranger or to any titled agent named on the cover page of this Agreement, other than Agent (collectively, the "Additional Titled Agents"), and except for obligations, liabilities, duties and responsibilities, if any, expressly assumed under this Agreement by any Additional Titled Agent, no Additional Titled Agent, in such capacity, has any rights, powers, liabilities, duties or responsibilities hereunder or under any of the other Financing Documents.  Without limiting the foregoing, no Additional Titled Agent shall have nor be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender.  At any time that any Lender serving as an Additional Titled Agent shall have transferred to any other Person (other than any Affiliates) all of its interests in the Loan, such Lender shall be deemed to have concurrently resigned as such Additional Titled Agent.
Section 11.16          Amendments and Waivers.
(a)          No provision of this Agreement or any other Financing Document may be materially amended, waived or otherwise modified unless such amendment, waiver or other modification is in writing and is signed or otherwise approved by Borrowers, the Required Lenders and any other Lender to the extent required under Section 11.16(b); provided, however, that Agent shall be entitled, in its sole and absolute discretion, to provide its written consent to a proposed Swap Contract, in each case without the consent of any other Lender.
109

(b)          In addition to the required signatures under Section 11.16(a), no provision of this Agreement or any other Financing Document may be amended, waived or otherwise modified unless such amendment, waiver or other modification is in writing and is signed or otherwise approved by the following Persons:
(i)    if any amendment, waiver or other modification would increase a Lender's Revolving Loan Commitment, by such Lender; and/or
(ii)    if the rights or duties of Agent or LC Issuer are affected thereby, by Agent and LC Issuer, as the case may be;
provided, however, that, in each of (i) and (ii) above, no such amendment, waiver or other modification shall, unless signed or otherwise approved in writing by all Lenders directly affected thereby, (A) reduce the principal of, rate of interest on or any fees with respect to any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or forgive any principal, interest (other than default interest) or fees (other than late charges) with respect to any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation; (B) postpone the date fixed for, or waive, any payment (other than any mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(ii)) of principal of any Loan or of any Reimbursement Obligation, or of interest on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation (other than default interest) or any fees provided for hereunder (other than late charges) or postpone the date of termination of any commitment of any Lender hereunder; (C) change the definition of the term Required Lenders or the percentage of Lenders which shall be required for Lenders to take any action hereunder; (D) release all or substantially all of the Collateral, authorize any Borrower to sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the Collateral or release any Guarantor of all or any portion of the Obligations or its Guarantee obligations with respect thereto, except, in each case with respect to this clause (D), as otherwise may be provided in this Agreement or the other Financing Documents (including in connection with any disposition permitted hereunder); (E) amend, waive or otherwise modify this Section 11.16(b) or the definitions of the terms used in this Section 11.16(b) insofar as the definitions affect the substance of this Section 11.16(b); (F) consent to the assignment, delegation or other transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under any Financing Document or release any Borrower of its payment obligations under any Financing Document, except, in each case with respect to this clause (F), pursuant to a merger or consolidation permitted pursuant to this Agreement; or (G) amend any of the provisions of Section 10.7 or amend any of the definitions Pro Rata Share, Revolving Loan Commitment, Revolving Loan Commitment Amount, Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage, or that provide for Lenders to receive their Pro Rata Shares of any fees, payments, setoffs or proceeds of Collateral hereunder.  It is hereby understood and agreed that all Lenders shall be deemed directly affected by an amendment, waiver or other modification of the type described in the preceding clauses (C), (D), (E), (F) and (G) of the preceding sentence.
Section 11.17          Assignments and Participations.
(a)          Assignments.
(i)     Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or any portion of such Lender's Loan together with all related obligations of such Lender hereunder, with the prior written consent (such consent not be unreasonably
110

withheld or delayed) of Borrower Representative; provided that no consent of Borrower Representative shall be required (A) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (B) in connection with an assignment to a Person that is a Lender or an Affiliate (other than natural persons) of a Lender or Approved Fund, or (C) in connection with an assignment by a Lender of all or a material portion of the business or loan portfolio of such Lender to an investment company, fund or similar entity that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in commercial loans in the Ordinary Course of Business; provided further, that Borrower Representative shall be deemed to have consented to a proposed assignment unless it objects thereto by written notice to Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof.  Except as Agent may otherwise agree, the amount of any such assignment (determined as of the date of the applicable Assignment Agreement or, if a "Trade Date" is specified in such Assignment Agreement, as of such Trade Date) shall be in a minimum aggregate amount equal to $1,000,000 or, if less, the assignor's entire interests in the outstanding Loan; provided, however, that, in connection with simultaneous assignments to two or more related Approved Funds, such Approved Funds shall be treated as one assignee for purposes of determining compliance with the minimum assignment size referred to above.  Borrowers and Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interests so assigned to an Eligible Assignee until Agent shall have received and accepted an effective Assignment Agreement executed, delivered and fully completed by the applicable parties thereto and a processing fee of $3,500 to be paid by the assigning Lender; provided, however, that only one processing fee shall be payable in connection with simultaneous assignments to two or more related Approved Funds.
(ii)      From and after the date on which the conditions described above have been met, (A) such Eligible Assignee shall be deemed automatically to have become a party hereto and, to the extent of the interests assigned to such Eligible Assignee pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder, and (B) the assigning Lender, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall be released from its rights and obligations hereunder (other than those that survive termination pursuant to Section 12.1).  Upon the request of the Eligible Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) pursuant to an effective Assignment Agreement, each Borrower shall execute and deliver to Agent for delivery to the Eligible Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) Notes in the aggregate principal amount of the Eligible Assignee's Loan (and, as applicable, Notes in the principal amount of that portion of the principal amount of the Loan retained by the assigning Lender).  Upon receipt by the assigning Lender of such Note, the assigning Lender shall return to Borrower Representative any prior Note held by it.
(iii)     Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of each Borrower, shall maintain at the office of its servicer located in Bethesda, Maryland a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Lender, and the commitments of, and principal amount and stated interest of the Loan owing to, such Lender pursuant to the terms hereof.  The entries in such register shall be conclusive, and Borrower, Agent and Lenders may treat each
111

Person whose name is recorded therein pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. No assignment shall be effective unless recorded in such register.  Such register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice to Agent.  The parties intend that the register be maintained such that the Loans are in "registered form" for the purposes of the Code.
(iv)       Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.17(a) or any other provision of this Agreement, any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, however, 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.
(v)       Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.17(a) or any other provision of this Agreement, Agent has the right, but not the obligation, to effectuate assignments of Loan via an electronic settlement system acceptable to Agent as designated in writing from time to time to Lenders by Agent (the "Settlement Service").  At any time when Agent elects, in its sole discretion, to implement such Settlement Service, each such assignment shall be effected by the assigning Lender and proposed assignee pursuant to the procedures then in effect under the Settlement Service, which procedures shall be consistent with the other provisions of this Section 11.17(a).  Each assigning Lender and proposed Eligible Assignee shall comply with the requirements of the Settlement Service in connection with effecting any assignment of Loan pursuant to the Settlement Service.  With the prior written approval of Agent, Agent's approval of such Eligible Assignee shall be deemed to have been automatically granted with respect to any transfer effected through the Settlement Service.  Assignments and assumptions of the Loan shall be effected by the provisions otherwise set forth herein until Agent notifies Lenders of the Settlement Service as set forth herein.
(b)          Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower or Agent, sell to one or more Persons (other than any Borrower or any Borrower's Affiliates) participating interests in its Loan, commitments or other interests hereunder (any such Person, a "Participant").  In the event of a sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, (i) such Lender's obligations hereunder shall remain unchanged for all purposes, (ii) Borrowers and Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations hereunder, and (iii) all amounts payable by each Borrower shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation and shall be paid directly to such Lender; provided each participant shall be entitled to payments under Section 2.8 as if such participant were a Lender if such participant complies with Section 2.8(c) as if it were a Lender accepting an interest in a Loan through an assignment.  Each Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and payable (as a result of acceleration or otherwise), each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement; provided, however, that such right of set-off shall be subject to the obligation of each
112

Participant to share with Lenders, and Lenders agree to share with each Participant, as provided in Section 11.5. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this  purpose as an agent of 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 Obligations (each, a "Participant Register"). The entries in the Participant Registers shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. Each Participant Register shall be available for inspection by Borrowers and Agent at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice to the applicable Lender; provided, that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Financing Document) to any Person (including Borrowers) 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 the Code including Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  For the avoidance of doubt, Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a participant register.
(c)          Replacement of Lenders.  Within thirty (30) days after: (i) receipt by Agent of notice and demand from any Lender for payment of additional costs as provided in Section 2.8(d), which demand shall not have been revoked, (ii) any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.8(a) or 2.8(b), (iii) any Lender is a Defaulted Lender, and the circumstances causing such status shall not have been cured or waived; or (iv) any failure by any Lender to consent to a requested amendment, waiver or modification to any Financing Document in which Required Lenders have already consented to such amendment, waiver or modification but the consent of each Lender, or each Lender affected thereby, is required with respect thereto (each relevant Lender in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) being an "Affected Lender") each of Borrower Representative and Agent may, at its option, notify such Affected Lender and, in the case of Borrowers' election, Agent, of such Person's intention to obtain, at Borrowers' expense, a replacement Lender ("Replacement Lender") for such Lender, which Replacement Lender shall be an Eligible Assignee and, in the event the Replacement Lender is to replace an Affected Lender described in the preceding clause (iv), such Replacement Lender consents to the requested amendment, waiver or modification making the replaced Lender an Affected Lender.  In the event Borrowers or Agent, as applicable, obtains a Replacement Lender within ninety (90) days following notice of its intention to do so, the Affected Lender shall sell, at par, and assign all of its Loan and funding commitments hereunder to such Replacement Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 11.17(a); provided, however, that (A) Borrowers shall have reimbursed such Lender for its increased costs and additional payments for which it is entitled to reimbursement under Section 2.8(a) through (h), as applicable, of this Agreement through the date of such sale and assignment, and (B) Borrowers shall pay to Agent the $3,500 processing fee in respect of such assignment.  In the event that a replaced Lender does not execute an Assignment Agreement pursuant to Section 11.17(a) within five (5) Business Days after receipt by such replaced Lender of notice of replacement pursuant to this Section 11.17(c) and presentation to such replaced Lender of an Assignment Agreement evidencing an assignment pursuant to this Section 11.17(c), such replaced Lender shall be deemed to have consented to the terms of such Assignment Agreement, and any such Assignment Agreement executed by Agent, the Replacement Lender and, to the extent required pursuant to Section 11.17(a), Borrowers, shall be effective for purposes of this Section 11.17(c) and Section 11.17(a).  Upon any such
113

assignment and payment, such replaced Lender shall no longer constitute a "Lender" for purposes hereof, other than with respect to such rights and obligations that survive termination as set forth in Section 12.1.
(d)          Credit Party Assignments.  No Credit Party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or other obligations hereunder or under any other Financing Document without the prior written consent of Agent and each Lender.
Section 11.18          Funding and Settlement Provisions Applicable When Non-Funding Lenders Exist.  So long as Agent has not waived the conditions to the funding of Revolving Loans set forth in Section 7.2, any Lender may deliver a notice to Agent stating that such Lender shall cease making Revolving Loans due to the non-satisfaction of one or more conditions to funding Loans set forth in Section 7.2, and specifying any such non-satisfied conditions.  Any Lender delivering any such notice shall become a non-funding Lender (a "Non-Funding Lender") for purposes of this Agreement commencing on the Business Day following receipt by Agent of such notice, and shall cease to be a Non-Funding Lender on the date on which such Lender has either revoked the effectiveness of such notice or acknowledged in writing to each of Agent the satisfaction of the condition(s) specified in such notice, or Required Lenders waive the conditions to the funding of such Loans giving rise to such notice by Non-Funding Lender.  Each Non-Funding Lender shall remain a Lender for purposes of this Agreement to the extent that such Non-Funding Lender has Revolving Loan Outstandings in excess of $0; provided, however, that during any period of time that any Non-Funding Lender exists, and notwithstanding any provision to the contrary set forth herein, the following provisions shall apply:
(a)          For purposes of determining the Pro Rata Share of each Revolving Lender under clause (c) of the definition of such term, each Non-Funding Lender shall be deemed to have a Revolving Loan Commitment Amount as in effect immediately before such Lender became a Non-Funding Lender.
(b)          Except as provided in clause (a) above, the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount of each Non-Funding Lender shall be deemed to be $0.
(c)          The Revolving Loan Commitment at any date of determination during such period shall be deemed to be equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment Amounts of all Lenders, other than the Non-Funding Lenders as of such date plus (ii) the aggregate Revolving Loan Outstandings of all Non-Funding Lenders as of such date.
(d)          [Reserved].
(e)          Agent shall have no right to make or disburse Revolving Loans for the account of any Non-Funding Lender pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(i) to pay interest, fees, expenses and other charges of any Credit Party, other than reimbursement obligations that have arisen pursuant to Section 2.5(c) in respect of Letters of Credit issued at the time such Non-Funding Lender was not then a Non-Funding Lender.
(f)          Agent shall have no right to (i) make or disburse Revolving Loans as provided in Section 2.1(b)(i) for the account of any Revolving Lender that was a Non-Funding Lender at the time of issuance of any Letter of Credit for which funding or reimbursement
114

obligations have arisen pursuant to Section 2.5(c), or (ii) assume that any Revolving Lender that was a Non-Funding Lender at the time of issuance of such Letter of Credit will fund any portion of the Revolving Loans to be funded pursuant to Section 2.5(c) in respect of such Letter of Credit.  In addition, no Revolving Lender that was a Non-Funding Lender at the time of issuance of any Letter of Credit for which funding or reimbursement obligations have arisen pursuant to Section 2.5(c), shall have an obligation to fund any portion of the Revolving Loans to be funded pursuant to Section 2.5(c) in respect to such Letter of Credit, or to make any payment to Agent or the LC Issuer, as applicable, under Section 2.5(f)(ii) in respect of such Letter of Credit, or be deemed to have purchased any interest or participation in such Letter of Credit from Agent or the LC Issuer, as applicable, under Section 2.5(f)(i).
(g)          To the extent that Agent applies proceeds of Collateral or other payments received by Agent to repayment of Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 10.7, such payments and proceeds shall be applied first in respect of Revolving Loans made at the time any Non-Funding Lenders exist, and second in respect of all other outstanding Revolving Loans.
Section 11.19          Buy-Out Upon Refinancing.  MCF shall have the right to purchase from the other Lenders all of their respective interests in the Loan at par in connection with any refinancing of the Loan upon one or more new economic terms, but which refinancing is structured as an amendment and restatement of the Loan rather than a payoff of the Loan.
Section 11.20          Subordination Agreements.  Each Lender by its execution of this Agreement or any Assignment Agreement, hereby authorizes and instructs Agent to enter into, any take the actions provided in, each Subordination Agreement.
ARTICLE 12 - MISCELLANEOUS
Section 12.1          Survival.  All agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in every other Financing Document shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents and the other Operative Documents.  The provisions of Section 2.8 and Articles 11 and 12 shall survive the payment of the Obligations (both with respect to any Lender and all Lenders collectively) and any termination of this Agreement and any judgment with respect to any Obligations, including any final foreclosure judgment with respect to any Security Document, and no unpaid or unperformed, current or future, Obligations will merge into any such judgment.
Section 12.2          No Waivers.  No failure or delay by Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege under any Financing Document shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  The rights and remedies herein and therein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.  Any reference in any Financing Document to the "continuing" nature of any Event of Default shall not be construed as establishing or otherwise indicating that any Borrower or any other Credit Party has the independent right to cure any such Event of Default, but is rather presented merely for convenience should such Event of Default be waived in accordance with the terms of the applicable Financing Documents.
115

Section 12.3          Notices.
(a)          All notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder shall be in writing (including prepaid overnight courier, facsimile transmission or similar writing) and shall be given to such party at its address, facsimile number or e-mail address set forth on the signature pages hereof (or, in the case of any such Lender who becomes a Lender after the date hereof, in an assignment agreement or in a notice delivered to Borrower Representative and Agent by the assignee Lender forthwith upon such assignment) or at such other address, facsimile number or e-mail address as such party may hereafter specify for the purpose by notice to Agent and Borrower Representative; provided, however, that notices, requests or other communications shall be permitted by electronic means only in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.3(b) and (c).  Each such notice, request or other communication shall be effective (i) if given by facsimile, when such notice is transmitted to the facsimile number specified by this Section and the sender receives a confirmation of transmission from the sending facsimile machine, or (ii) if given by mail, prepaid overnight courier or any other means, when received or when receipt is refused at the applicable address specified by this Section 12.3(a).
(b)          Notices and other communications to the parties hereto may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved from time to time by Agent, provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to notices sent directly to any Lender if such Lender has notified Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices by electronic communication.  Agent or Borrower Representative may, in their discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to them hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided, however, that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.
(c)          Unless 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), 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, provided, however, that if any such notice or other communication is not sent or posted during normal business hours, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day.
Section 12.4          Severability.  In case any provision of or obligation under this Agreement or any other Financing Document 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.
116

Section 12.5          Headings.  Headings and captions used in the Financing Documents (including the Exhibits, Schedules and Annexes hereto and thereto) are included for convenience of reference only and shall not be given any substantive effect.
Section 12.6          Confidentiality.
(a)          Each Credit Party agrees not to transmit or disclose provisions of any Financing Document to any Person (other than to Borrowers' advisors and officers on a need-to-know basis or as otherwise may be required by Law (including as required by the SEC)) without Agent's prior written consent.
(b)          Agent and each Lender shall hold all non-public information regarding the Credit Parties and their respective businesses identified as such by Borrowers and obtained by Agent or any Lender pursuant to the requirements hereof in accordance with such Person's customary procedures for handling information of such nature, except that disclosure of such information may be made (i) to their respective agents, employees, Subsidiaries, Affiliates, attorneys, auditors, professional consultants, rating agencies, insurance industry associations and portfolio management services, (ii) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Loans, Agent or a Lender, and to prospective contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) in Swap Contracts permitted hereby, provided, however, that any such Persons are bound by obligations of confidentiality, (iii) as required by Law, subpoena, judicial order or similar order and in connection with any litigation, (iv) as may be required in connection with the examination, audit or similar investigation of such Person, and (v) to a Person that is a trustee, investment advisor or investment manager, collateral manager, servicer, noteholder or secured party in a Securitization (as hereinafter defined) in connection with the administration, servicing and reporting on the assets serving as collateral for such Securitization. For the purposes of this Section, "Securitization" shall mean (A) the pledge of the Loans as collateral security for loans to a Lender, or (B) a public or private offering by a Lender or any of its Affiliates or their respective successors and assigns, of securities which represent an interest in, or which are collateralized, in whole or in part, by the Loans.  Confidential information shall include only such information identified as such at the time provided to Agent and shall not include information that either:  (y) is in the public domain, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to such Person through no fault of such Person, or (z) is disclosed to such Person by a Person other than a Credit Party, provided, however, Agent does not have actual knowledge that such Person is prohibited from disclosing such information.  The obligations of Agent and Lenders under this Section 12.6 shall supersede and replace the obligations of Agent and Lenders under any confidentiality agreement in respect of this financing executed and delivered by Agent or any Lender prior to the date hereof.
Section 12.7          Waiver of Consequential and Other Damages.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower shall assert, and each Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee (as defined below), 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 Financing Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.  No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or

121

Section 12.19          Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Financing Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Financing Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:
(a)          the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and
(b)          the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:
(i)     a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
(ii)    a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Financing Document; or
(iii)   the variation of the terms of such liability  in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.
Section 12.20          Intercreditor Agreement.  Agent and each Lender hereunder, by its acceptance of the benefits provided hereunder, (a) consents to the subordination of Liens provided for in the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, (b) agrees that it will be bound by, and will take no actions contrary to, the provisions of the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, and (c) authorizes and instructs Agent to enter into the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement as Agent on behalf of each Lender.  Agent and each Lender hereby agrees that the terms, conditions and provisions contained in this Agreement are subject to the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement and, in the event of a conflict between the terms of the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.
Section 12.21          Judgment Currency.  If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Financing Document in one
122

currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.  The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to Agent or any Lender hereunder or under the other Financing Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the "Judgment Currency") other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the "Agreement Currency"), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency.  If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to Agent or any Lender from any Borrower in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, against such loss.  If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to Agent or any Lender in such currency, Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable Law).
Section 12.22          Canadian Anti-Money Laundering Legislation.
(a)          Each Credit Party acknowledges that, pursuant to the Anti-Terrorism Laws and other applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist financing, government sanction and "know your client" Laws (collectively, including any guidelines or orders thereunder, "AML Legislation"), the Lenders may be required to obtain, verify and record information regarding the Canadian Credit Parties and their respective directors, authorized signing officers, direct or indirect shareholders or other Persons in control of the Canadian Credit Parties, and the transactions contemplated hereby.  Each Credit Party shall promptly provide all such information, including supporting documentation and other evidence, as may be reasonably requested by any Lender or any prospective assignee or participant of a Lender or Agent, in order to comply with any applicable AML Legislation, whether now or hereafter in existence.
(b)          If Agent has ascertained the identity of any Credit Party or any authorized signatories of the Canadian Credit Parties for the purposes of applicable AML Legislation, then Agent:
(i)    shall be deemed to have done so as an agent for each Lender, and this Agreement shall constitute a "written agreement" in such regard between each Lender and Agent within the meaning of the applicable AML Legislation; and
(ii)   shall provide to each Lender copies of all information obtained in such regard without any representation or warranty as to its accuracy or completeness.
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence and except as may otherwise be agreed in writing, each of the Lenders agrees that neither Agent nor any other agent has any obligation to ascertain the identity of the Canadian Credit Parties or any authorized signatories of the Canadian Credit
123

Parties on behalf of any Lender, or to confirm the completeness or accuracy of any information it obtains from any Canadian Credit Party or any such authorized signatory in doing so.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
The Company represents and warrants to the Purchaser that:
4.1          Capitalization.  After giving effect to the purchase and sale of the Warrants to the Purchaser pursuant hereto, (i) the authorized number of shares of Capital Stock of the Company will consist only of 40,179,985 shares of Common Stock, of which 30,078,474 shares have been issued and are outstanding (including 553,074 shares of unvested restricted stock), (ii) 179,985 preferred shares, of which none are outstanding, and (iii) 500,000 shares of Common Stock (and no other shares of Capital Stock) will be held by the Company in its treasury or by the Company’s Subsidiaries.  Upon consummation of the sale of the Warrants to the Purchaser, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Capital Stock of the Company shall have been duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and shall be free of preemptive rights.  Upon the exercise of the Warrants, and in the case of Common Stock assuming the completion of the Increase Authorization, all shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock, as applicable, issued pursuant to such exercise shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.  Assuming the completion of the Increase Authorization, shares of Common Stock issued upon the conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation shall be duly authorized into shares fully paid and non-assessable.  Upon consummation of the sale of the Warrant to the Purchaser, except as set forth on Schedule 4.1 and other than the Warrant and employee stock options to purchase 650,000 shares of Common Stock, there shall be no securities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that will be convertible into or exchangeable for shares of any Capital Stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, and no options, calls, subscriptions, convertible securities, or other rights, agreements or commitments which will obligate the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to issue, transfer or sell any shares of Capital Stock of, or other interests in, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.1, upon consummation of the sale of the Warrants to the Purchaser, there shall be no outstanding obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to repurchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any shares of Capital Stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall have any awards or options outstanding under any stock option plans or agreements or any other outstanding stock-related awards.  As of the Closing Date and immediately after the Closing, except as set forth on Schedule 4.1, none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries will have any obligation to issue, transfer or sell any shares of Capital Stock of the Company or its Subsidiaries.  Except as set forth on Schedule 4.1, there are no voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party with respect to the holding, voting or disposing of Capital Stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.  Except as set forth on Schedule 4.1, none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has any outstanding bonds, debentures, notes or other obligations or other securities that entitle the holders thereof to vote with the shareholders of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries on any matter or which are convertible into or exercisable for securities having such a right to vote.
4.2          Due Authorization, Execution and Delivery.  Each of the Transaction Documents has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and, when duly executed and delivered by the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, will constitute a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, subject to the Enforceability Exceptions.  The execution, delivery, and performance by the Company of the Transaction Documents do not and will not (A) violate (i) any provision of federal, provincial, territorial, states, or local law or regulation applicable to the Company, (ii) the constituent documents of the Company including its Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws, or (iii) any order, judgment, or decree of any court or other governmental authority binding on the Company, or  (B) except for the Increase Authorization, require any approval of any holder of shares of Capital Stock of the Company on any approval or consent of any Person under any material agreement of the Company.
4.3          Tax Benefits Preservation Plan. The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that Purchaser shall be deemed an Exempt Person (as defined in the TBPP such that it is permitted to become the Beneficial Owner (as defined in the TBPP) of the Warrants and the shares) of Common Stock or Preferred Stock which may be acquired upon exercise of the Warrants, and shares of Common Stock which may be acquired upon the conversion of the Preferred Stock into Common Stock, without Purchaser being deemed an Acquiring Person (as defined in the TBPP), that the shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock which may be acquired upon the exercise of either of the Warrants and the shares of Common Stock which may be acquired upon
4

the conversion of Preferred Stock into Common Stock have been determined to be to an Exempted Amount (as defined in the TBPP), and the Rights (as defined in the TBPP) shall not become exercisable under the TBPP as a result of the approval, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the public announcement or disclosure of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, the purchase and sale of either of the Warrants pursuant to this Agreement, the issuance of shares of Common Stock or shares of Preferred Stock upon exercise of either of the Warrants or conversion of shares of Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  Purchase acknowledges that the Board’s approval of (A) Purchaser as an Exempt Person and (B) the Exempted Amount applies only to Purchaser and not to any other person, including any assignee, designee, or transferee of Purchaser.  A copy of the resolutions duly adopted by the Board with respect to the foregoing matters is attached hereto as Exhibit C.
4.4          Governmental Consents.  The execution, delivery, and performance by the Company of the Transaction Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents do not and will not require any registration with, consent, or approval of, or notice to, or other action with or by, any Governmental Authority, other than (i) registrations, consents, approvals, notices, or other actions that (A) have been obtained and that are still in force and effect or (B) are expressly contemplated as being obtained at a later date in accordance with the terms of the applicable Transaction Document.
4.5          Incorporation by Reference.  The representations and warranties set forth in Article IV of the Loan Agreement, excluding the representations set forth in Sections 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4 thereof, are incorporated by reference herein, as if made by the Company to the Purchaser hereunder.
SECTION 5.

REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS OF THE PURCHASER
The Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company as of the date hereof as follows:

(a)          Purchaser is acquiring the Warrant for its own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view to any distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act.
(b)          Purchaser understands that the Warrant has not been and, except as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state or other securities law, that the Warrant is being issued by the Company in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, that it must not offer or sell the Warrant except pursuant to effective registration statements under the Securities Act or pursuant to applicable exemptions from registration under the Securities Act and in compliance with applicable State laws.
(c)          Such Purchaser further understands that the exemption from registration afforded by Rule 144 (the provisions of which are known to such Purchaser) promulgated under the Securities Act depends on the satisfaction of various conditions (which are not currently satisfied), and that, if applicable, Rule 144 may afford the basis for sales only in limited amounts.
(d)          Such Purchaser did not employ any broker or finder in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement and no fees or commissions are payable to the Purchasers except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement.
(e)          Such Purchaser is an Accredited Investor.
(f)          Other than the 4,576,613 shares of Common Stock reported on an amendment to Schedule 13G filed with the SEC on April 19, 2018, neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates beneficially own any shares of Capital Stock of the Company or any options, rights, derivatives, or similar instruments with respect to Capital Stock of the Company.
5.2          Access to Information.  Such Purchaser has been furnished with or has had access to the information it has requested from the Company and has had an opportunity to discuss with the management of the Company the business and financial affairs of the Company and its Subsidiaries.
5

5.3          Power; Authorization; Enforceability.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement are within Purchaser’s power and authority and have been duly authorized by all necessary action of such Purchaser, do not conflict with or result in a breach of or violate any of such Purchaser’s governing documents or any contract to which such Purchaser is a party or by which its assets are bound or any Applicable Laws and constitute legal, valid and binding agreements of such Purchaser enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms, subject to the Enforceability Exceptions.
5.4          No Actions or Proceedings.  There are no legal or governmental actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to any Purchaser’s knowledge, threatened against or affecting such Purchaser, or any of their respective properties or assets which, if adversely determined, in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the ability of such Purchaser to consummate any of the transactions contemplated hereby.
5.5          Agreement to Vote in Favor of Increase Authorization.
(a)          Purchaser hereby agrees that (x) Purchaser shall take all such actions as may be required to cause all shares of Capital Stock of the Company (including, without limitation, any shares of Preferred Stock) then owned by Purchaser (the “Owned Shares”) to be voted in favor of the approval of the Increase Authorization and the TBPP Approval at any meeting of the stockholders of the Company in connection with the approval of any component of the Increase Authorization and the TBPP Approval (provided, that nothing set forth in this Warrant Purchase Agreement shall be deemed to require Purchaser to exercise its right to purchase shares of Preferred Stock prior to such meeting) and (y) Purchaser shall take all such actions as may be required to cause each Owned Shares to be present, in person or by proxy, at any meeting of the stockholders of the Company in connection with the approval of all or any component of the Increase Authorization for the purposes of determining the presence of a quorum and voted in accordance with the preceding clause (x) at such meetings (including at any adjournments or postponements thereof).
(b)          Any vote required to be cast or consent required to be executed pursuant to this Section 5.5 shall be cast or executed in accordance with the applicable procedures relating thereto so as to ensure that the Owned Shares are duly counted for purposes of determining that a quorum is present (if applicable) and for purposes of recording the results of that vote or consent.
(c)          Purchaser hereby irrevocably appoints the Company and any designee of the Company, and each of them individually, as Purchaser’s, proxy and attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to vote or execute consents, with respect to the Owned Shares as of the applicable record date, in each case solely with respect to the Increase Authorization and the TBPP Approval and not for any other purpose.  This proxy is given to secure the performance of the duties of Purchaser under this Agreement.  Purchaser shall not directly or indirectly grant any Person any proxy (revocable or irrevocable), power of attorney or other authorization with respect to any Owned Shares that is inconsistent with this Section 5.5.
(d)          The proxy and power of attorney granted pursuant to this Section 5.5 by Purchaser shall be irrevocable, shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable proxy and shall revoke any and all prior proxies granted by Purchaser with regard to any Owned Shares with respect to the Increase Authorization and the TBPP Approval and not for any other purpose.  Purchaser acknowledges that the proxy constitutes an inducement for the Company to enter into this Agreement.  The power of attorney granted by Purchaser is a durable power of attorney and shall survive the bankruptcy, dissolution, death or incapacity of Purchaser.
(e)          For purposes of this Section 5.5, the Owned Shares shall include any shares of Capital Stock of the Company owned by any Affiliate of Purchaser, including, without limitation, shares of Common Stock owned by Luminus Management, LLC and/or Jonathan Barrett, and Purchaser shall cause its Affiliates to comply with the requirements of this Section 5.5 applicable to Purchaser.
(f)          The obligations of Purchaser and its Affiliates set forth in this Section 5.5 shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the approval of the Increase Authorization and the TBPP Approval by the Company’s stockholders, (ii) the failure of the Company’s stockholders to approve either the Increase Authorization or the TBPP Approval at a meeting in which the Increase Authorization or the TBPP Approval was properly submitted for approval, and such failure did not result from Purchaser’s or its Affiliate’s breach of this Section 5.5, and (iii) December 31, 2020.
6

(g)          For purposes of this Section 5.5, the words “owned” and “Owned” refers to Capital Stock actually owned by a Person and not beneficially “owned” or “Owned” (as defined in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder).
SECTION 6.

POST-CLOSING COVENANTS
6.1          Exchange Act Compliance.  The Company shall use its best efforts to ensure that it is in complete compliance with its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act no later than June 30, 2020.
6.2          Stockholder Vote.  As promptly as practicable after the Company is in compliance with its reporting obligation under the Exchange Act, and in any event no later than December 31, 2020, the Company will call a meeting of its stockholders.  At such meeting, the Company will propose that its stockholders adopt amendments to its Certificate of Incorporation (i) to increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized thereunder to One Hundred Million (100,000,000) and (ii) to decrease the par value of each share of its Common Stock from $0.033 per share to not greater than one cent per share (the “Increase Authorization”). The immediately preceding sentence notwithstanding, to facilitate re-listing under any stock exchange or as otherwise advisable in the judgment of the Company’s board of directors, the Company shall have the right to effect a reverse stock split or other share combination in conjunction with or immediately following the described stockholder vote, in which case the number of authorized shares and par value will be correspondingly adjusted and the terms of the Warrants will be adjusted as described in the Warrants. The Company shall provide a proxy statement to its stockholders for such meeting in which the Board recommends the adoption of such amendment, and the Company shall cause the adoption of such amendment.
6.3          Board Observation Rights.  The holders of Warrants exercisable for a majority of shares of Common Stock which may be issued pursuant to the Warrants (or shares of Preferred Stock, if applicable) shall be entitled to designate one observer (the “Board Observer”) to attend any meeting of the Board (or its direct or indirect ultimate parent holding company) or any of its subsidiaries (or, in each case, any relevant committees thereof), except that the Board Observer shall not be entitled to vote on matters presented to or discussed by the Board (or any relevant committee thereof) of the Company (or its direct or indirect ultimate parent holding company) or any of its subsidiaries at any such meetings.  The Board Observer shall be timely notified of the time and place of any meetings of the Board (which shall be held no less than once per quarter) and will be given written notice of all proposed actions to be taken by the Board (or any relevant committee thereof) of the Company (or its direct or indirect ultimate parent holding company) and any of its subsidiaries at such meeting as if the Board Observer were a member thereof.  Such notice shall describe in reasonable detail the nature and substance of the matters to be discussed and/or voted upon at such meeting (or the proposed actions to be taken by written consent without a meeting).  Such Board Observer may be excluded from meetings (or a portion thereof) and materials provided to such Board Observer in connection with such meetings may be redacted to the extent that the Board determines in good faith that such exclusion (or redaction) is required (i) to preserve an attorney-client or accountant-client or any other available privilege or (ii) to avoid a conflict of interest on the part of such Board Observer; provided, that in any such event such Board Observer is given notice of any such exclusion or redaction.  Subject to the foregoing sentence, the Board Observer shall have the right to receive all information provided to the members of the Board of any similar group performance an executive oversight or similar function (or any relevant committee thereof) of the Company (or its direct or indirect ultimate parent holding company) and any of its subsidiaries in anticipation of or at such meeting (whether telephonic or otherwise), in addition to copies of the records of the proceedings or minutes of such meeting, when provided to the members, and the Board Observer shall keep such materials and proceedings and information confidential.  The Company shall reimburse the Board Observer for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with its participation in any meeting of the Board in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement policy for Board members generally.
6.4          Preemptive Rights.  In the event that the Company proposes to issue or sell any shares of Common Stock (including without limitation pursuant to stock options or other obligations to issue shares of Capital Stock outstanding as of the date hereof), or any right or subscription to or right to receive any shares of Capital Stock (including options issued to individuals) to any Person, then the Purchaser shall have the right to purchase that number of shares of Common Stock sufficient for it to maintain the same percentage ownership of shares of Common Stock on a fully diluted basis as it had immediately prior to such issuance (assuming for such purpose full exercise of the Warrants), on the same terms and conditions as those offered pursuant to the proposed issuance.  In
7

the event of a proposed issuance or issuances, as the case may be, that would give rise to preemptive rights under this Section 6.4, the Company shall provide written notice of such proposed issuance not less than twenty (20) days prior to such proposed issuance to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall provide notice of its election to exercise such rights within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice from the Company.  Failure of the Purchaser of the Warrant to exercise its preemptive rights within ten (10) days after receipt of such notice from the Company shall be regarded as a waiver of such rights with respect to such issuance, but shall not be deemed a waiver of such rights as to any subsequent proposed issuance or sale of Capital Stock.  If the Company so requests, in connection with any transaction which gives rise to the Purchaser’s right to purchase shares of Common Stock or other Capital Stock pursuant to this Section 6.4, the Purchaser and the Company will discuss in good faith whether the exercise of such rights might result in any limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (or any successor thereto) (“Section 382”) as then in effect, and any alternatives which might mitigate the impact of any such limitation; provided, however, that such obligation to discuss the foregoing shall in no way impact, impair, affect, disturb or prevent the Purchaser from exercising its rights in full under this Section 6.4, regardless of the content, outcome or results of such discussions, or any such limitations pursuant to Section 382, as a result of the exercise of Purchaser’s rights under this Section 6.4.
6.5          Further Amendment to TBPP.  No later than August 30, 2019, the Company shall adopt an amendment to the TBPP plan pursuant to Section 26 thereof, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, which will provide that Purchaser and its Affiliates shall be “Exempt Persons” (as defined in the TBPP) under the TBPP for all purposes, including without limitation, as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the exercise of the Warrants, the conversion of Preferred Stock into Common Stock or any other acquisition of Capital Stock of the Company by Purchaser or any of its affiliates.  The TBPP Amendment shall also provide that a Distribution Date, Stock Acquisition Date, Section 11(a)(ii) Event or other Triggering Event (as each such term is defined in the TBPP) shall not be deemed to occur by virtue of, or as a result of, any of the transactions or events referred to in the preceding sentence.
6.6          Purchase Price.  Within six (6) months after the Closing, the Company shall prepare and deliver to Purchaser a proposal regarding an allocation of the loans made by Purchaser pursuant to the Loan Agreement to the purchase of each of the Warrants (collectively, the “Purchase Price”).  The Purchaser may review any work papers, schedules and calculations of the Company or its independent accountants used to determine the Purchase Price.  If the Purchaser objects to the Purchase Price as proposed by the Company, the Company and the Purchaser shall discuss such objections, and shall jointly resolve any such objections and determine a Purchase Price mutually acceptable to Purchaser and the Company.
SECTION 7.
INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION; TERMINATION
7.1          Indemnification.  The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and each of its respective Affiliates, partners, stockholders, members, directors, agents, employees and controlling persons (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actual losses, claims, damages or liabilities to any such Indemnitee in connection with or as a result of any misrepresentation or breach of warranty, covenant or agreement made or to be performed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement.
7.2          Survival.  The obligations of the Company under this Section 7 will survive the exercise or transfer of all or any part of the Warrant, the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and the termination of this Agreement.
7.3          Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments.  Any indemnification payment pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated for federal, state, local and foreign Tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

CELADON GROUP, INC.
WARRANT TO PURCHASE SIXTEEN MILLION
 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK, PAR VALUE $0.033 PER SHARE

For VALUE RECEIVED, LUMINUS ENERGY PARTNERS MASTER FUND, LTD. (“Warrantholder”), is entitled to purchase, subject to the provisions of this Warrant, from Celadon Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company”), at any time from and after the date hereof (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and not later than 5:00 P.M., Eastern time, on the Expiration Date (as defined above), at an exercise price per share equal to $0.01 (the exercise price in effect being herein called the “Warrant Price”), sixteen million (16,000,000) shares (“Warrant Shares”) of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.033 per share (“Common Stock”), subject to Section 7(b).  The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the Warrant Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as described herein.
This Warrant has been issued by the Company pursuant to that certain Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated July 31, 2019, among the Company and the Warrantholder (the “Purchase Agreement”).
Section 1.          Registration.  The Company shall maintain books for the transfer and registration of the Warrant.  Upon the initial issuance of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and register the Warrant in the name of the Warrantholder.
Section 2.          Transfers.  As provided herein, this Warrant may be transferred only pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or an exemption from such registration.  Subject to such restrictions, the Company shall transfer this Warrant, in whole or in part, from time to time upon the books to be maintained by the Company for that purpose, upon surrender hereof for transfer, properly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instructions for transfer and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Company, including, if required by the Company, an opinion of its counsel to the effect that such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, to establish that such transfer is being made in accordance with the terms.  A new Warrant shall be issued to the transferee and, if the Warrant is only transferred in part, a new Warrant shall be issued to the previous holder for the remaining portion of the Warrant, and the surrendered Warrant shall be canceled by the Company.
Section 3.          Exercise of Warrant.  Subject to the provisions hereof, the Warrantholder may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, at any time after the Initial Exercise Date and prior to its expiration upon surrender of the Warrant, together with delivery of a duly executed Warrant exercise form, in the form attached hereto as Appendix A (the “Exercise Agreement”) and payment by cash, certified check or wire transfer of funds (or, in certain circumstances, by cashless exercise as provided below) of the aggregate Warrant Price for that number of Warrant Shares then being purchased, to the Company during normal business hours on any business day at the Company’s principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the Warrantholder).  The Warrant Shares so purchased shall be deemed to be issued to the Warrantholder or the Warrantholder’s designee, as the record owner of such shares, as of the close of business on the date on which this

Warrant shall have been surrendered (or the date evidence of loss, theft or destruction thereof and security or indemnity satisfactory to the Company has been provided to the Company), the Warrant Price shall have been paid and the completed Exercise Agreement shall have been delivered.  Certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be delivered to the Warrantholder within a reasonable time, not exceeding ten (10) business days, after this Warrant shall have been so exercised.  The certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be requested by the Warrantholder and shall be registered in the name of the Warrantholder or such other name as shall be designated by the Warrantholder, as specified in the Exercise Agreement.  If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then, unless this Warrant has expired, the Company shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of such certificates, deliver to the Warrantholder a new Warrant representing the right to purchase the number of shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised.  As used herein, “business day” means a day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which banks in New York City are open for the general transaction of business.  Each exercise hereof shall constitute the re-affirmation by the Warrantholder that the representations and warranties contained in Section 5 of the Purchase Agreement are true and correct in all material respects with respect to the Warrantholder as of the time of such exercise.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to effect the exercise of the Warrant hereunder, the Warrantholder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the entire Warrant is exercised.  The Warrantholder and the Company shall maintain records showing the amount exercised and the dates of such exercise.  The Company’s records shall be presumed correct absent manifest error. The Warrantholder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provision of the paragraph, following exercise of a portion of the Warrant, the number of Warrant Shares of this Warrant may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
Section 4.          Compliance with the Securities Act of 1933.  Except as provided in the Purchase Agreement, the Company may cause the legend set forth on the first page of this Warrant to be set forth on each Warrant, and a similar legend on any security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, unless counsel for the Company is of the opinion as to any such security that such legend is unnecessary.
Section 5.          Payment of Taxes.  The Company will pay any documentary stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant.  The Warrantholder shall be responsible for income taxes due under federal, state or other law, if any such tax is due.
Section 6.          Mutilated or Missing Warrants.  In case this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed, the Company shall issue in exchange and substitution of and upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution for the Warrant lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant of like tenor and for the purchase of a like number of Warrant Shares, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction of the Warrant, and with respect to a lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant, reasonable indemnity or bond with respect thereto, if requested by the Company.
Section 7.          Reservation of Common Stock; Preferred Stock Issuance In lieu of Issuance of Common Stock.
(a)          The Company and the Warrantholder acknowledge that currently there are an insufficient number of shares of authorized Common Stock of this Company to permit the exercise in full of this Warrant.  The Company and the Warrantholder further acknowledges that as of the Initial Exercise Date, the Company is not in compliance with its reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  The Company shall use its best efforts to bring the Company into compliance with its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act as promptly as possible after the date hereof.  At its first meeting of Shareholders following the Company being in compliance with its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act (the “Compliance Date”), the Company will propose for a vote of its shareholders that the certificate of incorporation of the Company be amended to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock of the Company to One Hundred Million (100,000,000), which is an amount sufficient to permit full exercise of the Warrant and decrease the par value of each share to one cent or less (the “Increase Authorization”).  The immediately preceding sentence notwithstanding, to facilitate re-listing under any stock exchange or as otherwise advisable in the judgment of the Company’s board of directors, the Company shall have the right to effect a reverse stock split or other share combination in conjunction with or immediately following the described shareholder vote, in which case the number of authorized shares, Warrant Shares (and Substitute Preferred Shares), Warrant Price, and par value will be adjusted as described in Subsection 8(B).
2

(b)          Prior to the Increase Authorization, in the event this Warrant is exercised, or any holder of this Warrant informs the Company of its intention to exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, and the Company then has an insufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized to honor such exercise or the par value of the Common Stock has not been reduced to one cent or less, the Board of Directors shall adopt the Certificate of Designation attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Certificate of Designation”) authorizing the issuance of shares of preferred stock of the Company (the “Substitute Preferred Shares”) in lieu thereof.  The Company shall issue, and the Warrantholder will accept, the one (1) Share of Substitute Preferred Shares in lieu of each one thousand (1,000) shares of Common Stock which the Company would otherwise be required to issue pursuant to this Warrant.  The Certificate of Designation with respect to the Substitute Preferred Shares provides that following the Issuance Authorization, the Substitute Preferred Shares shall automatically be converted into the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant was previously exercised, the Company shall issue such shares of Common Stock to the Warrantholder within three (3) business days of the adoption of the Increase Authorization, and the Substitute Preferred Shares will be cancelled.
(c)          At any time following the satisfaction of the Increase Authorization, this Warrant is exercisable, the Company shall at all applicable times keep reserved until issued (if necessary) as contemplated by this Section 7, out of the authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, sufficient shares to provide for the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by this Warrant; and (d) the Company agrees that all Warrant Shares (and Substitute Preferred Shares) issued upon due exercise of the Warrant shall be, at the time of delivery of the certificates for such Warrant Shares, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock of the Company.
Section 8.          Adjustments.  Subject and pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8, the Warrant Price and number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth hereinafter.
A.           Warrant Price Adjustment.
1.       If the Company shall issue, on or after the date hereof, any Additional Stock (as defined below) for a consideration per share less than the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock, the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to each such issuance shall forthwith be adjusted to a price equal to the per share consideration paid or given for such Additional Stock.
2.      No adjustment of the Warrant Price shall be made in an amount less than one cent per share, provided that any adjustments that are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be either taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made prior to five (5) years from the date of the event giving rise to the adjustment being carried forward, or shall be made at the end of five (5) years from the date of the event giving rise to the adjustment being carried forward.  Except to the limited extent provided for in subsections 8(A)(5)(c) and (5)(d), no adjustment of such Warrant Price pursuant to this subsection 8(A)(2) shall have the effect of increasing the Warrant Price above the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.
3.      In the case of the issuance of Additional Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefore before deducting any reasonable discounts, commission or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof.
4.      In the case of the issuance of the Additional Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair market value thereof as determined by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment.  In the event that the Warrantholder disagrees with the determination of the fair market value of any consideration and the Board of Directors of the Company and the Warrantholder are unable to agree upon such fair market value, the Company and the Warrantholder shall jointly select an appraiser, who is experienced in such matters to determine the fair market value of such
3

consideration.  The decision of such appraiser shall be final and conclusive, and the cost of such appraiser shall be borne equally by the Company and the Warrantholder.
5.     In the case of the issuance of options to purchase or warrants or other rights to subscribe for or receive Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or options to purchase or rights to subscribe for or receive such convertible or exchangeable securities, whether such rights or the underlying Common Stock is vested or unvested, or subject to later forfeiture, the following provisions shall apply for purposes of determining the number of shares of Additional Stock issued and the consideration paid therefor:
a.     The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise (assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to exercisability, including without limitation, the passage of time, but without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) of such options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in subsections 8 (A)(3) and 8(A)(4)), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options or rights plus the minimum exercise price provided in such options or rights (without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) for the Common Stock covered thereby.
b.     The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion or, or in exchange (assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to convertibility or exchangeability, including, without limitation, the passage of time, but without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) for, any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration, if any, received by the Company for any such securities and related options or rights (excluding any cash received on account of accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company (without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in subsections 8 (A)(3) and 8(A)(4).
c.     In the event of any change in the number of shares of Common Stock deliverable or in the consideration payable to the Company upon exercise of such options or rights or upon conversion of or in exchange for such convertible or exchangeable shares, the Warrant Price, to the extent in any way affected by or computed using such options, rights or securities, shall be recomputed to reflect such change, but no further adjustment shall be made for the actual issuance of Common Stock or any payment of such consideration upon the exercise of any such options or rights or the conversion or exchange of such securities.
d.    The number of shares of Additional Stock deemed issued and the consideration deemed paid therefor pursuant to subsections 8 (A)(5)(a) and (b) shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any change, termination or expiration of the type described in either subsection 8(A)(5)(a) or (b).
e.     “Additional Stock” shall mean any shares of Common Stock issued (or deemed to have been issued pursuant to subsection 8(A)(5)) by the Company on or after the date hereof.
B.         Subdivision or Combination.
1.      In the event the Company should at any time or from time to time after the date hereof fix a record date for the effectuation of a split or subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive a dividend or

other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock or other securities or rights convertible into, or entitling the holder thereof to receive directly or indirectly, additional shares of Common Stock (hereinafter referred to as “Common Stock Equivalents”) without payment of any consideration by such holder for the additional shares of Common Stock or the Common Stock Equivalents (including the additional shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise thereof), then, as of such record date (or the date of such dividend distribution, split or subdivision if no record date is fixed), the Warrant Price shall be appropriately decreased and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of the Warrant or conversion of each Substitute Preferred Share shall be increased in proportion to such increase of the aggregate of shares of Common Stock outstanding and those issuable with respect to such Common Stock Equivalents.
2.     If the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at any time after the Initial Exercise Date is decreased by a reverse stock split or combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date of such combination, the Warrant Price shall be appropriately increased and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of the Warrant or conversion of each Substitute Preferred Share shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares.
C.       Warrant Share Adjustment.  If any capital reorganization, reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation in which the Company is not the survivor, or sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another corporation shall be effected, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby each Warrantholder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions herein specified and in lieu of the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as would have been issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of Warrant Shares equal to the number of Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of each Warrantholder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provision for adjustment of the Warrant Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof.  The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Warrantholder, at the last address of the Warrantholder appearing on the books of the Company, such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Warrantholder may be entitled to purchase, and the other obligations under this Warrant.  The provisions of this Section 8(C) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or other dispositions.
Section 9.          Fractional Interest.  The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant.  If any fractional share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of the first sentence of this Section 9, be deliverable upon such exercise, the Company, in lieu of delivering such fractional share, shall pay to the exercising Warrantholder an amount in cash equal to the Market Price of such fractional share of Common Stock on the date of exercise.  “Market Price” as of a particular date (the “Valuation Date”) shall mean the following:  (a) if the Common Stock is then listed on a national stock exchange, the closing sale price of one share of Common Stock on such exchange on the last trading day prior to the Valuation Date; (b) if the Common Stock is then quoted on The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (“Nasdaq”), the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. OTC Bulletin Board (the “Bulletin Board”) or such similar quotation system or association, the closing sale price of one share of Common Stock on Nasdaq, the Bulletin Board or such other quotation system or association on the last trading day prior to the Valuation Date or, if no such closing sale price is available, the average of the high bid and the low asked price quoted thereon on the last trading day prior to the Valuation Date; or (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed on a national stock exchange or quoted on Nasdaq, the Bulletin Board or such other quotation system or association, the fair market value of one share of Common Stock as of the Valuation Date, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company and the Warrantholder.  In the event that the Board of Directors of the Company and the Warrantholder are unable to agree upon the fair market value, the
5

Company and the Warrantholder shall jointly select an appraiser, who is experienced in such matters to decide such fair market value.  The decision of such appraiser shall be final and conclusive, and the cost of such appraiser shall be borne equally by the Company and the Warrantholder.
Section 10.          Extension of Expiration Date.  If the Company defers the filing of any Registration Statement covering Registrable Securities (unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms are as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of the Initial Exercise Date, relating to the Warrant Shares (the “Registration Rights Agreement”)) pursuant to Section 3(r) of the Registration Rights Agreement occurs, and the deferral (whether alone, or in combination with any other deferral) continues for more than 90 days in any twelve-month period, or for more than a total of 90 days, then the Expiration Date of this Warrant shall be extended one day for each day beyond the 90-day limits, as the case may be, that the deferral continues.
Section 11.          Benefits.  Nothing in this Warrant shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation (other than the Company and the Warrantholder) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim, it being agreed that this Warrant shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Company and the Warrantholder.
Section 12.          Notices to Warrantholder.  Upon the happening of any event requiring an adjustment of the Warrant Price, the Company shall promptly give written notice thereof to the Warrantholder at the address appearing in the records of the Company, stating the adjusted Warrant Price and the adjusted number of Warrant Shares resulting from such event and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based.  Failure to give such notice to the Warrantholder or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of the subject adjustment.
Section 13.          Identity of Transfer Agent.  The Transfer Agent for the Common Stock is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC.  Upon the appointment of any subsequent transfer agent for the Common Stock or other shares of the Company’s capital stock issuable upon the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by the Warrant, the Company will mail to the Warrantholder a statement setting forth the name and address of such transfer agent.
Section 14.          Notices.  Unless otherwise provided, any notice required or permitted under this Warrant shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given and received as hereinafter described (i) if given by personal delivery, then such notice shall be deemed received upon such delivery, (ii) if given by certified mail return receipt requested, then such notice shall be deemed received upon the day such return receipt is signed, and (iii) if given by an internationally recognized overnight air courier, then such notice shall be deemed given one business day after delivery to such carrier.  Copies of such notices shall also be transmitted by email to the email address provided for on the signature page of the Purchase Agreement.  All notices shall be addressed as follows:  if to the Warrantholder, at its address as set forth in the Company’s books and records and, if to the Company, at the address as follows, or at such other address as the Warrantholder or the Company may designate by ten days’ advance written notice to the other:

Section 17.          Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.  This Warrant shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York, without reference to the choice of law provisions thereof.  The Company and, by accepting this Warrant, the Warrantholder, each irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York located in New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for the purpose of any suit, action, proceeding or judgment relating to or arising out of this Warrant and the transactions contemplated hereby.  Service of process in connection with any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on each party hereto anywhere in the world by the same methods as are specified for the giving of notices under this Warrant.  The Company and, by accepting this Warrant, the Warrantholder, each irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding and to the laying of venue in such court.  The Company and, by accepting this Warrant, the Warrantholder, each irrevocably waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such courts and irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. EACH OF THE COMPANY AND, BY ITS ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, THE WARRANTHOLDER HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO REQUEST A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LITIGATION WITH RESPECT TO THIS WARRANT AND REPRESENTS THAT COUNSEL HAS BEEN CONSULTED SPECIFICALLY AS TO THIS WAIVER.
Section 18.          Cashless Exercise.  In lieu of exercising this Warrant in the manner set forth in Section 3, the Warrantholder may elect to receive, without the payment by the Warrantholder of the aggregate Warrant Price in respect of the shares of Common Stock to be acquired, shares of Common Stock of equal value to the value of this Warrant, or any specified portion hereof, by the surrender of this Warrant (or such portion of this Warrant being so exercised) together with a Net Issue Election Notice, in the form annexed hereto as Appendix B, duly executed, to the Company.  The Company shall use reasonable commercial efforts to permit the exercise of this Warrant by the Warrantholder on a tax-free basis pursuant to this Section 18.  Thereupon, the Company shall issue to the Warrantholder such number of fully paid, validly issued and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is computed using the following formula:
X = Y (A – B)
       A
where
X = the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Warrantholder is entitled upon such cashless exercise;
Y = the total number of shares of Common Stock covered by this Warrant for which the Warrantholder has surrendered purchase rights at such time for cashless exercise (including both shares to be issued to the Warrantholder and shares as to which the purchase rights are to be canceled as payment therefor);
A = the Market Price of one share of Common Stock as of the date the net issue election is made; and
B = the Warrant Price in effect under this Warrant at the time the net issue election is made.
Section 19.          No Rights as Stockholder.  Prior to the exercise of this Warrant, the Warrantholder shall not have or exercise any rights as a stockholder of the Company by virtue of its ownership of this Warrant.
Section 20.          Amendment; Waiver.  Any term of this Warrant may be amended or waived (including the adjustment provisions included in Section 8 of this Warrant) upon the written consent of the Company and the holders of Warrants representing a majority of the number of shares of Common Stock then subject to all outstanding Warrants (the “Majority Holders”); provided, that (x) any such amendment or waiver must apply to all Company Warrants; and (y) the number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant, the Warrant Price and the Expiration Date may not be amended, and the right to exercise this Warrant may not be altered or waived, without the written consent of the Warrantholder.
Section 21.          Section Headings.  The section headings in this Warrant are for the convenience of the Company and the Warrantholder and in no way alter, modify, amend, limit or restrict the provisions hereof.

WARRANT TO PURCHASE FIVE MILLION FOUR HUNDRED
SEVENTY-TWO THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED FORTY-FIVE
 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK, PAR VALUE $0.033 PER SHARE
 
For VALUE RECEIVED, LUMINUS ENERGY PARTNERS MASTER FUND, LTD. (“Warrantholder”), is entitled to purchase, subject to the provisions of this Warrant, from Celadon Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Company”), at any time from and after the occurrence of a Change of Control (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and not later than 5:00 P.M., Eastern time, on the Expiration Date (as defined above), at an exercise price per share equal to $0.01 (the exercise price in effect being herein called the “Warrant Price”), five million four hundred seventy‑two thousand eight hundred forty‑five (5,472,845) shares (“Warrant Shares”) of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.033 per share (“Common Stock”), subject to Section 7(b).  The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the Warrant Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as described herein.
This Warrant has been issued by the Company pursuant to that certain Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated July 31, 2019, between the Company and the Luminus Energy Partners Master Fund, Ltd. (the “Purchase Agreement”).
In addition to other terms defined herein, the following terms shall have the meanings specified herein:
Change in Control” shall mean the occurrence of one or more of the following events:  (i) any “person” or “group” (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, but excluding any employee benefit plan of such person or its Subsidiaries, and any person or entity acting in its capacity as trustee, agent or other fiduciary or administrator of any such plan) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except that a person or group shall be deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of all securities that such person or group has the right to acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time (such right, “option right”)), directly or indirectly, of a majority of the Equity Interests of the Company entitled to vote for members of the board of directors or equivalent governing body of the Company on a fully-diluted basis (and taking into account all such securities that such person or group has the right to acquire pursuant to any option, warrant or other contractual right) or (ii) a majority of the members of the board of directors of the Company do not constitute Continuing Directors.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood that no Change in Control will result from the exercise of this Warrant and/or Initial Warrant or upon the conversion into Common Stock of any Equity Interests issued pursuant to the Warrants or the Initial Warrant.
Continuing Director” shall mean (a) any member of the board of directors who was a director (or comparable manager) of the Company on the Closing Date, or (b) any individual who becomes a member of the board of directors of the Company after the Closing Date if such individual was approved, appointed or nominated for election to the board of directors of the Company by a majority of the Continuing Directors, but excluding any such individual originally proposed for election in opposition  to the board of directors of the Company in office at the Closing Date in an actual or threatened election contest relating to the election of the directors (or comparable managers) of the Company and whose initial assumption of office resulted from such contest or the settlement thereof, unless such individual was proposed for election by the Warrantholder or any of its Affiliates.

Equity Interests” shall mean, with respect to the Company, all of the shares of capital stock of (or other ownership or profit interests in) of the Company, all of the warrants, options or other rights for the purchase or acquisition from the Company of shares of capital stock of (or other ownership or profit interests in) the Company, all of the securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of (or other ownership or profit interests in) the Company or warrants, rights or options for the purchase or acquisition from the Company of such shares (or such other interests), and all of the other ownership or profit interests in the Company (including partnership, member or trust interests therein), whether voting or nonvoting, or common or preferred, and whether or not such shares, warrants, options, rights or other interests are outstanding on any date of determination.
Initial Warrant” means that certain warrant of even date herewith issued by the Company to the Warrantholder to purchase 16,000,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company.
Subsidiary” shall mean, with respect to the Company, any corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, association or other entity the accounts of which would be consolidated with those of the Company in the Company’s consolidated financial statements if such financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as of such date, as well as any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, association or other entity (i) of which securities or other ownership interests representing more than 50% of the equity or more than 50% of the ordinary voting power, or in the case of a partnership, more than 50% of the general partnership interests are, as of such date, owned, controlled or held, or (ii) that is, as of such date, otherwise controlled, by the Company or one or more Subsidiaries of the Company or by the Company and one or more Subsidiaries of the Company.
Section 1.          Registration.  The Company shall maintain books for the transfer and registration of the Warrant.  Upon the initial issuance of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and register the Warrant in the name of the Warrantholder.
Section 2.          Transfers.  As provided herein, this Warrant may be transferred only pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or an exemption from such registration.  Subject to such restrictions, the Company shall transfer this Warrant, in whole or in part, from time to time upon the books to be maintained by the Company for that purpose, upon surrender hereof for transfer, properly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate instructions for transfer and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Company, including, if required by the Company, an opinion of its counsel to the effect that such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, to establish that such transfer is being made in accordance with the terms.  A new Warrant shall be issued to the transferee and, if the Warrant is only transferred in part, a new Warrant shall be issued to the previous holder for the remaining portion of the Warrant, and the surrendered Warrant shall be canceled by the Company.
Section 3.          Exercise of Warrant.  Subject to the provisions hereof, the Warrantholder may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, at any time after the Initial Exercise Date and prior to its expiration upon surrender of the Warrant, together with delivery of a duly executed Warrant exercise form, in the form attached hereto as Appendix A (the “Exercise Agreement”) and payment by cash, certified check or wire transfer of funds (or, in certain circumstances, by cashless exercise as provided below) of the aggregate Warrant Price for that number of Warrant Shares then being purchased, to the Company during normal business hours on any business day at the Company’s principal executive offices (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice to the Warrantholder).  The Warrant Shares so purchased shall be deemed to be issued to the Warrantholder or the Warrantholder’s designee, as the record owner of such shares, as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered (or the date evidence of loss, theft or destruction thereof and security or indemnity satisfactory to the Company has been provided to the Company), the Warrant Price shall have been paid and the completed Exercise Agreement shall have been delivered.  Certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be delivered to the Warrantholder within a reasonable time, not exceeding ten (10) business days, after this Warrant shall have been so exercised.  The certificates so delivered shall be in such denominations as may be requested by the Warrantholder and shall be registered in the name of the Warrantholder or such other name as shall be designated by the Warrantholder, as specified in the Exercise Agreement.  If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, then, unless this Warrant has expired, the Company shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of such certificates, deliver to the Warrantholder a new Warrant representing the right to purchase the number of shares with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised.  As used herein, “business day” means a day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which banks in New York City are open for the general transaction of business.  Each exercise hereof shall constitute the re-affirmation by the Warrantholder that the representations and warranties contained in Section 5 of the Purchase Agreement are true and correct in all material respects with respect to the Warrantholder as of the time of such exercise.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to effect
2

the exercise of the Warrant hereunder, the Warrantholder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the entire Warrant is exercised.  The Warrantholder and the Company shall maintain records showing the amount exercised and the dates of such exercise.  The Company’s records shall be presumed correct absent manifest error.  The Warrantholder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provision of the paragraph, following exercise of a portion of the Warrant, the number of Warrant Shares of this Warrant may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
Section 4.          Compliance with the Securities Act of 1933.  Except as provided in the Purchase Agreement, the Company may cause the legend set forth on the first page of this Warrant to be set forth on each Warrant, and a similar legend on any security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, unless counsel for the Company is of the opinion as to any such security that such legend is unnecessary.
Section 5.          Payment of Taxes.  The Company will pay any documentary stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant.  The Warrantholder shall be responsible for income taxes due under federal, state or other law, if any such tax is due.
Section 6.          Mutilated or Missing Warrants.  In case this Warrant shall be mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed, the Company shall issue in exchange and substitution of and upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of and substitution for the Warrant lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant of like tenor and for the purchase of a like number of Warrant Shares, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction of the Warrant, and with respect to a lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant, reasonable indemnity or bond with respect thereto, if requested by the Company.
Section 7.          Reservation of Common Stock; Preferred Stock Issuance In lieu of Issuance of Common Stock.
(a)          The Company and the Warrantholder acknowledge that currently there are an insufficient number of shares of authorized Common Stock of this Company to permit the exercise in full of this Warrant.  The Company and the Warrantholder further acknowledges that as of the Initial Exercise Date, the Company is not in compliance with its reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  The Company shall use its best efforts to bring the Company into compliance with its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act as promptly as possible after the date hereof.  At its first meeting of Shareholders following the Company being in compliance with its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act (the “Compliance Date”), the Company will propose for a vote of its shareholders that the certificate of incorporation of the Company be amended to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock of the Company to One Hundred Million (100,000,000), which is an amount sufficient to permit full exercise of the Warrant and decrease the par value of each share to one cent or less (the “Increase Authorization”).  The immediately preceding sentence notwithstanding, to facilitate re-listing under any stock exchange or as otherwise advisable in the judgment of the Company’s board of directors, the Company shall have the right to effect a reverse stock split or other share combination in conjunction with or immediately following the described shareholder vote, in which case the number of authorized shares, Warrant Shares (and Substitute Preferred Shares), Warrant Price, and par value will be adjusted as described in Subsection 8(B).
(b)          Prior to the Increase Authorization, in the event this Warrant is exercised, or any holder of this Warrant informs the Company of its intention to exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part, and the Company then has an insufficient number of shares of Common Stock authorized to honor such exercise or the par value of the Common Stock has not been reduced to one cent or less, the Board of Directors shall adopt the Certificate of Designation attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Certificate of Designation”) authorizing the issuance of shares of preferred stock of the Company (the “Substitute Preferred Shares”) in lieu thereof.  The Company shall issue, and the Warrantholder will accept, the one (1) Share of Substitute Preferred Shares in lieu of each one thousand (1,000) shares of Common Stock which the Company would otherwise be required to issue pursuant to this Warrant.  The Certificate of Designation with respect to the Substitute Preferred Shares provides that following the Issuance Authorization, the Substitute Preferred Shares shall automatically be converted into the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant was previously exercised, the Company shall issue such shares of Common Stock to the
3

Warrantholder within three (3) business days of the adoption of the Increase Authorization, and the Substitute Preferred Shares will be cancelled.
(c)          At any time following the satisfaction of the Increase Authorization, this Warrant is exercisable, the Company shall at all applicable times keep reserved until issued (if necessary) as contemplated by this Section 7, out of the authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock, sufficient shares to provide for the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by this Warrant; and (d) the Company agrees that all Warrant Shares (and Substitute Preferred Shares) issued upon due exercise of the Warrant shall be, at the time of delivery of the certificates for such Warrant Shares, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock of the Company.
Section 8.          Adjustments.  Subject and pursuant to the provisions of this Section 8, the Warrant Price and number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth hereinafter.
A.       Warrant Price Adjustment.
1.       If the Company shall issue, on or after the date hereof, any Additional Stock (as defined below) for a consideration per share less than the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Additional Stock, the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to each such issuance shall forthwith be adjusted to a price equal to the per share consideration paid or given for such Additional Stock.
2.       No adjustment of the Warrant Price shall be made in an amount less than one cent per share, provided that any adjustments that are not required to be made by reason of this sentence shall be carried forward and shall be either taken into account in any subsequent adjustment made prior to five (5) years from the date of the event giving rise to the adjustment being carried forward, or shall be made at the end of five (5) years from the date of the event giving rise to the adjustment being carried forward.  Except to the limited extent provided for in subsections 8(A)(5)(c) and (5)(d), no adjustment of such Warrant Price pursuant to this subsection 8(A)(2) shall have the effect of increasing the Warrant Price above the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.
3.      In the case of the issuance of Additional Stock for cash, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefore before deducting any reasonable discounts, commission or other expenses allowed, paid or incurred by the Company for any underwriting or otherwise in connection with the issuance and sale thereof.
4.      In the case of the issuance of the Additional Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair market value thereof as determined by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment.  In the event that the Warrantholder disagrees with the determination of the fair market value of any consideration and the Board of Directors of the Company and the Warrantholder are unable to agree upon such fair market value, the Company and the Warrantholder shall jointly select an appraiser, who is experienced in such matters to determine the fair market value of such consideration.  The decision of such appraiser shall be final and conclusive, and the cost of such appraiser shall be borne equally by the Company and the Warrantholder.
5.      In the case of the issuance of options to purchase or warrants or other rights to subscribe for or receive Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or options to purchase or rights to subscribe for or receive such convertible or exchangeable securities, whether such rights or the underlying Common Stock is vested or unvested, or subject to later forfeiture, the following provisions shall apply for purposes of determining the number of shares of Additional Stock issued and the consideration paid therefor:
a.       The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise (assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to exercisability, including without limitation, the passage of time, but without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) of such options to purchase or rights to subscribe for

Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in subsections 8 (A)(3) and 8(A)(4)), if any, received by the Company upon the issuance of such options or rights plus the minimum exercise price provided in such options or rights (without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) for the Common Stock covered thereby.
b.     The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion or, or in exchange (assuming the satisfaction of any conditions to convertibility or exchangeability, including, without limitation, the passage of time, but without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) for, any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities were issued or such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration, if any, received by the Company for any such securities and related options or rights (excluding any cash received on account of accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company (without taking into account potential antidilution adjustments) upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in subsections 8 (A)(3) and 8(A)(4).

5

of Common Stock, then, following the record date of such combination, the Warrant Price shall be appropriately increased and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of the Warrant or conversion of each Substitute Preferred Share shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares.
C.     Warrant Share Adjustment.  If any capital reorganization, reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation in which the Company is not the survivor, or sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets to another corporation shall be effected, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby each Warrantholder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions herein specified and in lieu of the Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as would have been issuable or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of Warrant Shares equal to the number of Warrant Shares immediately theretofore issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, had such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of each Warrantholder to the end that the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provision for adjustment of the Warrant Price) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly equivalent as may be practicable in relation to any shares of stock, securities or assets thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof.  The Company shall not effect any such consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or other disposition unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor corporation (if other than the Company) resulting from such consolidation or merger, or the corporation purchasing or otherwise acquiring such assets or other appropriate corporation or entity shall assume the obligation to deliver to the Warrantholder, at the last address of the Warrantholder appearing on the books of the Company, such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the Warrantholder may be entitled to purchase, and the other obligations under this Warrant.  The provisions of this Section 8(C) shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations, mergers, sales, transfers or other dispositions.
Section 9.          Fractional Interest.  The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant.  If any fractional share of Common Stock would, except for the provisions of the first sentence of this Section 9, be deliverable upon such exercise, the Company, in lieu of delivering such fractional share, shall pay to the exercising Warrantholder an amount in cash equal to the Market Price of such fractional share of Common Stock on the date of exercise.  “Market Price” as of a particular date (the “Valuation Date”) shall mean the following:  (a) if the Common Stock is then listed on a national stock exchange, the closing sale price of one share of Common Stock on such exchange on the last trading day prior to the Valuation Date; (b) if the Common Stock is then quoted on The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (“Nasdaq”), the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. OTC Bulletin Board (the “Bulletin Board”) or such similar quotation system or association, the closing sale price of one share of Common Stock on Nasdaq, the Bulletin Board or such other quotation system or association on the last trading day prior to the Valuation Date or, if no such closing sale price is available, the average of the high bid and the low asked price quoted thereon on the last trading day prior to the Valuation Date; or (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed on a national stock exchange or quoted on Nasdaq, the Bulletin Board or such other quotation system or association, the fair market value of one share of Common Stock as of the Valuation Date, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company and the Warrantholder.  In the event that the Board of Directors of the Company and the Warrantholder are unable to agree upon the fair market value, the Company and the Warrantholder shall jointly select an appraiser, who is experienced in such matters to decide such fair market value.  The decision of such appraiser shall be final and conclusive, and the cost of such appraiser shall be borne equally by the Company and the Warrantholder.
Section 10.          Extension of Expiration Date.  If the Company defers the filing of any Registration Statement covering Registrable Securities (unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms are as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of the Initial Exercise Date, relating to the Warrant Shares (the “Registration Rights Agreement”)) pursuant to Section 3(r) of the Registration Rights Agreement occurs, and the deferral (whether alone, or in combination with any other deferral) continues for more than 90 days in any twelve-month period, or for more than a total of 90 days, then the Expiration Date of this Warrant shall be extended one day for each day beyond the 90-day limits, as the case may be, that the deferral continues.

Section 12.          Notices to Warrantholder.  Upon the happening of any event requiring an adjustment of the Warrant Price, the Company shall promptly give written notice thereof to the Warrantholder at the address appearing in the records of the Company, stating the adjusted Warrant Price and the adjusted number of Warrant Shares resulting from such event and setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based.  Failure to give such notice to the Warrantholder or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of the subject adjustment.
Section 13.          Identity of Transfer Agent.  The Transfer Agent for the Common Stock is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC.  Upon the appointment of any subsequent transfer agent for the Common Stock or other shares of the Company’s capital stock issuable upon the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by the Warrant, the Company will mail to the Warrantholder a statement setting forth the name and address of such transfer agent.
Section 14.          Notices.  Unless otherwise provided, any notice required or permitted under this Warrant shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given and received as hereinafter described (i) if given by personal delivery, then such notice shall be deemed received upon such delivery, (ii) if given by certified mail return receipt requested, then such notice shall be deemed received upon the day such return receipt is signed, and (iii) if given by an internationally recognized overnight air courier, then such notice shall be deemed given one business day after delivery to such carrier.  Copies of such notices shall also be transmitted by email to the email address provided for on the signature page of the Purchase Agreement.  All notices shall be addressed as follows:  if to the Warrantholder, at its address as set forth in the Company’s books and records and, if to the Company, at the address as follows, or at such other address as the Warrantholder or the Company may designate by ten days’ advance written notice to the other:

A Demand Registration may be effected on Form S-1 or any successor form or, if available, on Form S-3 or any successor form (including, if requested by the Initiating Investors, a shelf registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 under the 1933 Act (a “Shelf Registration Statement”)).
3

(A)      Each Request shall specify the amount of Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by each such Investor.
(B)      As promptly as practicable after the Company’s receipt of a Request from one or more Investors constituting Required Investors with respect to such Underwritten Offering (such date, the “Request Date”), but no later than five (5) Business Days after the Request Date, the Company shall give written notice of such requested registration to all other Investors of Registrable Securities.
(C)     Subject to Section 2(a)(ii), the Company shall include in a Demand Registration (i) the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by the Initiating Investors and (ii) the Registrable Securities intended to be disposed of by any other Investor which shall have made a written request (which request shall specify the amount of Registrable Securities to be registered and the intended method of disposition thereof) to the Company for inclusion thereof in such registration within ten (10) days after the receipt of such written notice from the Company.
(D)     The Company, as expeditiously as possible, but in any event within thirty (30) days (forty-five (45) days for any filing on Form S-1) following the Request Date (the “Filing Deadline”), shall cause to be filed with the SEC a Demand Registration Statement providing for the registration under the 1933 Act of the Registrable Securities which the Company has been so requested to register by all such Investors, to the extent necessary to permit the disposition of such Registrable Securities so to be registered in accordance with the intended methods of disposition thereof specified in such Request or further requests.
(E)    The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to have such Demand Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC as soon as practicable thereafter but in no event later than the Effectiveness Deadline therefor and to keep such Demand Registration Statement continuously effective until such time as all of such Registrable Securities have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller(s) thereof set forth in such Demand Registration Statement, provided that with respect to any Demand Registration Statement, such period need not extend beyond the applicable Registration Period (as defined below).
(2)       A Request may be withdrawn prior to the filing of the Demand Registration Statement by the Required Investors of the Registration (a “Withdrawn Request”) and a Demand Registration Statement may be withdrawn prior to the effectiveness thereof by the Required Investors of the Registration (a “Withdrawn Demand Registration”).
(3)      A Demand Registration Statement shall not be deemed to have become effective (and the related Demand Registration will not be deemed to have been effected or requested) (i) unless it has been declared effective by the SEC and remains effective in compliance with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities covered by such Demand Registration Statement for the applicable Registration Period, (ii) if the offering of any Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration Statement is interfered with by any stop order, injunction or other order or requirement of the SEC or any other governmental agency or court, or (iii) if the conditions to closing specified in an underwriting agreement to which the Company is a party are not satisfied other than by the sole reason of any breach or failure by the Investors of Registrable Securities or are not otherwise waived.
4

(4)    The registration rights granted pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2(a) shall be in addition to the registration rights granted pursuant to the other provisions of this Section 2.
(ii)               Priority in Demand Registrations.  If the sole or lead managing Underwriter (as the case may be) of any Demand Registration that is an Underwritten Offering shall advise the Company that, in its opinion, the amount of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such Demand Registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering within a price range acceptable to the Required Investors of the Registration, the Company shall include in such Demand Registration, to the extent of the number which the Company is so advised may be included in such offering without such effect, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in the Demand Registration by the Investors, allocated pro rata among the Investors based on the number of Registrable Securities held by each Investor (on an as converted, fully-diluted basis and without giving effect to any exercise or conversion limitations contained in any such convertible or exercisable securities held by any such party and without regard to whether such securities are then convertible or exercisable).  The Company shall promptly inform each Investor regarding the receipt of any such advice, and of the proposed allocation.  In the event the Company shall not, by virtue of this Section 2(a)(ii), include in any Demand Registration all of the Registrable Securities of any Investor requesting to be included in such Demand Registration, such Investor may, upon written notice to the Company given within five (5) days of the time such Investor first is notified of such matter (or such lesser time as the managing Underwriter shall advise is available so as not to interfere with the offering), reduce the amount of Registrable Securities it desires to have included in such Demand Registration, whereupon only the Registrable Securities, if any, it desires to have included will be so included and the Investors not so reducing shall be entitled to a corresponding increase in the amount of Registrable Securities to be included in such Demand Registration.
(iii)           Limitation on Registrations. The Company shall not be required to effect a Demand Registration pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 or any successor form more than three (3) times for the Investors as a group pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, there shall be no limit to the number of Demand Registrations the Company shall be required to effect pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 or any successor form at any time that the Company is eligible to use such Form for a Registration Statement pursuant hereto.
(iv)          Underwriting. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2(a)(i), if the applicable Required Investors of the Registration elect, the offering of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of a firm commitment Underwritten Offering and such Required Investors of the Registration may require that all Persons (including other Investors) participating in such registration sell their Registrable Securities to the Underwriters at the same price and on the same terms of underwriting applicable to the Required Investors of the Registration. If any Demand Registration involves an Underwritten Offering, the sole or managing Underwriters and any additional investment bankers and managers to be used in connection with such registration shall be selected by the Company, subject to the approval of the Required Investors participating in the Registration (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
(v)         Other Registrations. During the period (i) beginning on the date of a Request and (ii) ending on the date that is ninety (90) days after the date that a Demand Registration Statement filed pursuant to such Request has been declared effective by the SEC or, if the Required Investors of the Registration shall withdraw such Request or such Demand Registration Statement, on the date of such Withdrawn Request or such Withdrawn Registration Statement, the Company shall not, without the consent of the Required Investors of the Registration, file a registration statement pertaining to any other equity securities of the Company (other than a registration relating solely to the sale of securities to participants in a Company employee stock or similar plan on Form S-8 or

a registration statement relating solely to an acquisition or business combination to which the Company is a party filed on Form S-4).
(vi)        Registration Statement Form. Registrations under this Section 2(a) shall be on such appropriate and available registration form of the SEC (i) as shall be selected by the Company and (ii) which shall be available for the sale of Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method or methods of disposition specified in the requests for registration. The Company agrees to include in any such Registration Statement all information which any selling Investor, upon advice of counsel, shall reasonably request.
(b)          Piggyback Registration.
(i)
               Right to Include Registrable Securities.
(1)       If the Company at any time from time to time proposes to register any of its securities under the 1933 Act (other than in a registration on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor form to such forms) whether or not pursuant to registration rights granted to other holders of its securities and whether or not for sale for its own account, the Company shall deliver prompt written notice (which notice shall be given at least ten (10) Trading Days prior to such proposed registration) to all Investors of Registrable Securities of its intention to undertake such registration, describing in reasonable detail the proposed registration and distribution (including the anticipated range of the proposed offering price, the class and number of securities proposed to be registered and the distribution arrangements) and of such Investors’ right to participate in such registration under this Section 2(b) as hereinafter provided. Subject to the other provisions of this Section 2(b)(i) and Section 2(b)(ii), upon the written request of any Investor made within ten (10) calendar days after the receipt of such written notice (which request shall specify the amount of Registrable Securities to be registered and the intended method of disposition thereof), the Company shall effect the registration under the 1933 Act of all Registrable Securities requested by Investors to be so registered  (a “Piggyback Registration”), to the extent requisite to permit the disposition (in accordance with the intended methods thereof as aforesaid) of the Registrable Securities so to be registered, by inclusion of such Registrable Securities in the Registration Statement which covers the securities which the Company proposes to register and shall cause such Registration Statement to become and remain effective with respect to such Registrable Securities in accordance with the registration procedures set forth in Section 3. If a Piggyback Registration involves an Underwritten Offering, immediately upon notification to the Company from the Underwriter of the price at which such securities are to be sold, the Company shall so advise each participating Investor. The Investors requesting inclusion in a Piggyback Registration may, at any time prior to the Effective Date of the Piggyback Registration Statement (and for any reason), revoke such request by delivering written notice to the Company revoking such requested inclusion.
(2)        If at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the Effective Date of the Piggyback Registration Statement filed in connection with such registration, the Company shall determine for any reason not to register or to delay registration of such securities, the Company may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to each Investor and, thereupon, (A) in the case of a determination not to register, the Company shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Registrable Securities in connection with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses incurred in connection therewith), without prejudice, however, to the rights of Investors to cause such registration to be effected as a registration under Section 2(a), and (B) in the case of a determination to delay such registration, the Company shall be permitted to delay the registration of such Registrable Securities for the same period as the delay in registering such other securities; provided, however, if such delay shall extend beyond 120 days from the date the Company received a request to
6

include Registrable Securities in such Piggyback Registration, then the Company shall again give all Investors the opportunity to participate therein and shall follow the notification procedures set forth in the preceding paragraph. There is no limitation on the number of such Piggyback Registrations pursuant to this Section 2(b) which the Company is obligated to effect.
(3)        The registration rights granted pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2(b) shall be in addition to the registration rights granted pursuant to the other provisions of this Section 2.
(ii)               Priority in Piggyback Registration. If a Piggyback Registration involves an Underwritten Offering (on a firm commitment basis), and the sole or the lead managing Underwriter (as the case may be) of such Underwritten Offering shall advise the Company prior to the date then scheduled for such offering that, in its opinion, the amount of securities (including Registrable Securities) requested to be included in such registration exceeds the amount which can be sold in such offering without materially interfering with the successful marketing of the securities being offered (and the Company shall promptly inform each Investor regarding the receipt of such advice), the Company shall include in such registration, to the extent of the number which the Company is so advised may be included in such offering without such effect, (i) in the case of a registration initiated by the Company, (A) first, the securities that the Company proposes to register for its own account, (B) second, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by the Investors, allocated pro rata in proportion to the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by each of them, and (C) third, other securities of the Company to be registered on behalf of any other Person, and (ii) in the case of a registration initiated by a Person other than the Company, (A) first, the securities proposed to be registered by any Persons initiating such registration, allocated pro rata in proportion to the number of securities requested to be included in such registration by each of them and (B) second, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration by the Investors, allocated pro rata in proportion to the number of securities requested to be included in such registration by each of them, provided that in the event the Company will not, by virtue of this Section 2(b)(ii), include in any such registration all of the Registrable Securities of any Investor requested to be included in such registration, such Investor may, upon written notice to the Company given within three (3) days of the time such Investor first is notified of such matter, reduce the amount of Registrable Securities it desires to have included in such registration, whereupon only the Registrable Securities, if any, it desires to have included will be so included and the Investors not so reducing shall be entitled to a corresponding increase in the amount of Registrable Securities to be included in such registration.
(c)          Registration of Other Securities. Whenever the Company shall effect a Demand Registration, no securities other than the Registrable Securities shall be covered by such registration unless (a) the Required Investors of the Registration shall have consented in writing to the inclusion of such other securities and (b) no Investor is unable to include any of its Registrable Securities requested for inclusion in such registration by reason of Section 2(a)(ii).
(d)          Underwritten Offerings.
(i)         Demand Underwritten Offerings.  If requested by the sole or lead managing Underwriter for any Underwritten Offering effected pursuant to a Demand Registration, the Company shall enter into a customary underwriting agreement with the Underwriters for such offering.
(ii)       Investors of Registrable Securities to be Parties to Underwriting Agreement.  The Investors holding the Registrable Securities to be distributed by Underwriters in an Underwritten Offering contemplated by Section 2 shall be parties to the underwriting agreement between the Company and such Underwriters and may, at such Investors’ option, require that any or all of the
7

representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of such Underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of such Investors of Registrable Securities and that any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of such Underwriters under such underwriting agreement be conditions precedent to the obligations of such Investors of Registrable Securities; provided, however, the Company shall not be required to make any representations or warranties with respect to written information specifically provided by a selling Investor for inclusion in the Registration Statement.  No Investor shall be required to make any representations or warranties to, or agreements with, the Company or the Underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Investor, such Investor’s Registrable Securities and such Investor’s intended method of disposition.
(iii)       Participation in Underwritten Registration.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary in this Section 2, no Person may participate in any Underwritten Offering hereunder unless such Person (i) agrees to sell its securities on the same terms and conditions provided in any underwritten arrangements approved by the Persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangement and (ii) accurately completes and executes in a timely manner all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, custody agreements, underwriting agreements and other documents customary for such an offering and reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.
(e)          Allocation of Registrable Securities.  The initial number of Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement and any increase in the number of Registrable Securities included therein shall first be allocated pro rata among the Investors based on the number of Registrable Securities held by each Investor at the time such Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC. In the event that an Investor sells or otherwise transfers any of such Investor’s Registrable Securities, each transferee that becomes an Investor shall be allocated a pro rata portion of the then remaining number of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement for such transferor. Any shares of Common Stock included in a Registration Statement and which remain allocated to any Person which ceases to hold any Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement shall be allocated to the remaining Investors, pro rata based on the number of Registrable Securities then held by such Investors  which are covered by such Registration Statement.
(f)          Legal Counsel. Subject to Section 5 hereof, Buyer shall have the right to select one (1) legal counsel to represent it in connection with any registration pursuant to this Section 2 (“Legal Counsel”), which shall be Greenberg Traurig, LLP or such other counsel as thereafter designated by Buyer..
(g)          Effect of Failure to File and Obtain and Maintain Effectiveness of any Registration Statement.  If (i) a Registration Statement covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities required to be covered thereby (disregarding any reduction pursuant to Section 2(b)(ii)) and required to be filed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement is (A) not filed with the SEC on or before the Filing Deadline for such Registration Statement (a “filing failure”) or (B) not declared effective by the SEC on or before the Effectiveness Deadline for such Registration Statement (an “Effectiveness Failure”), (ii) other than during an Allowable Grace Period (as defined below), on any day after the Effective Date of a Registration Statement sales of all of the Registrable Securities required to be included on such Registration Statement (disregarding any reduction pursuant to Section 2(b)(i)) cannot be made pursuant to such Registration Statement (including, without limitation, because of a failure to keep such Registration Statement effective, a failure to disclose such information as is necessary for sales to be made pursuant to such Registration Statement, a suspension or delisting of (following any successful listing) the shares of Common Stock on the Principal Market, or a failure to register a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock or by reason of a stop order) or the prospectus contained therein is not available for use for any reason (a “Maintenance Failure”), or (iii) if, following the Commencement Date, the Company fails to file with the SEC, any required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act (as defined below) such that it is not in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) (a “Current Public Information Failure”) as a result of which any of the Investors are unable to sell Registrable Securities without restriction under Rule 144 (including, without limitation, volume restrictions), then, as partial relief for the damages to any holder by reason of any such
8

delay in, or reduction of, its ability to sell the underlying shares of Common Stock (which remedy shall not be exclusive of any other remedies available at law or in equity), the Company shall pay to each holder of Registrable Securities relating to such Registration Statement an amount in cash equal to one percent (1%) of Market Price of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Warrant) of all of such Investor’s Registrable Securities then held (or if such failure relates to only a portion of the Registrable Securities, then only with respect to the Investor’s allocable cash investment with respect to the security that is exercisable or convertible (as the case may be) into such portion of such Registrable Securities) (1) on the date of such Filing Failure, Effectiveness Failure, Maintenance Failure or Current Public Information Failure, as applicable, and (2) on every sixty (60) day anniversary of (I) a Filing Failure until such Filing Failure is cured; (II) an Effectiveness Failure until such Effectiveness Failure is cured; (III) a Maintenance Failure until such Maintenance Failure is cured; and (IV) a Current Public Information Failure until the earlier of (i) the date such Current Public Information Failure is cured and (ii) such time that such public information is no longer required pursuant to Rule 144 (in each case, pro rated for periods totaling less than sixty (60) days). The payments to which a holder of Registrable Securities shall be entitled pursuant to this Section 2(g) are referred to herein as “Registration Delay Payments.” Following the initial Registration Delay Payment for any particular event or failure (which shall be paid on the date of such event or failure, as set forth above), without limiting the foregoing, if an event or failure giving rise to the Registration Delay Payments is cured prior to any sixty (60) day anniversary of such event or failure, then such Registration Delay Payment shall be made on the third (3rd) Business Day after such cure.  In the event the Company fails to make Registration Delay Payments in a timely manner in accordance with the foregoing, such Registration Delay Payments shall bear interest at the rate of one percent (1%) per month (prorated for partial months) until paid in full. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the aggregate of all Registration Delay Payments payable by the Company hereunder exceed the lesser of (i) three and one‑half percent (3.5%) of the aggregate Market Price of all Registrable Securities and (ii) $800,000.
3.
Related Obligations.
Whenever the Company is required to effect the registration of Registrable Securities under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto, and the Company shall have the following obligations:
(a)          The Company shall promptly prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement with respect to all the Registrable Securities required to be covered by such Registration Statement (but in no event later than the applicable Filing Deadline) and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing (but in no event later than the Effectiveness Deadline). Subject to Allowable Grace Periods, the Company shall keep each Registration Statement effective (and the prospectus contained therein available for use) (and if such offering is under a Shelf Registration Statement, such effectiveness shall be pursuant to Rule 415 for resales by the Holders on a delayed or continuous basis at then-prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices)) at all times until (i) if such Registration Statement is not a Shelf Registration Statement, one hundred and eighty (180) days after the Effective Date of such Registration Statement or (ii) if such Registration Statement is a Shelf Registration Statement, the date on which the Holders shall have sold all of the Registrable Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement (as applicable) (the “Registration Period”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall ensure that, when filed and at all times while effective, each Registration Statement (including, without limitation, all amendments and supplements thereto) and the prospectus (including, without limitation, all amendments and supplements thereto) used in connection with such Registration Statement (1) shall not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of prospectuses, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made) not misleading and (2) will disclose (whether directly or through incorporation by reference to other SEC filings to the extent permitted) all material information regarding the Company and its securities. The Company shall submit to the SEC, within one (1) Business Day after the later of the date that (i) the Company learns that no review of a particular Registration Statement will be made by the Staff or that the
9

Staff has no further comments on a particular Registration Statement (as the case may be) and (ii) the consent of Legal Counsel is obtained pursuant to Section 3(c) (which consent shall be immediately sought), a request for acceleration of effectiveness of such Registration Statement to a time and date not later than forty-eight (48) hours after the submission of such request.

(b)          Subject to Section 3(r) of this Agreement, the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments (including, without limitation, post-effective amendments) and supplements to each Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection with each such Registration Statement, which prospectus is to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the 1933 Act, as may be necessary to keep each such Registration Statement effective at all times during the Registration Period for such Registration Statement, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the 1933 Act with respect to the disposition of all Registrable Securities of the Company required to be covered by such Registration Statement until such time as all of such Registrable Securities shall have been disposed of in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the seller or sellers thereof as set forth in such Registration Statement; provided, however, by 8:30 a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day immediately following each Effective Date, the Company shall file with the SEC in accordance with Rule 424(b) under the 1933 Act the final prospectus to be used in connection with sales pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement (whether or not such a prospectus is technically required by such rule). In the case of amendments and supplements to any Registration Statement which are required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, pursuant to this Section 3(b)) by reason of the Company filing a report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K or any analogous report under the 1934 Act, the Company shall have incorporated such report by reference into such Registration Statement, if applicable, or shall file such amendments or supplements with the SEC on the same day on which the 1934 Act report is filed which created the requirement for the Company to amend or supplement such Registration Statement.
(c)          The Company shall permit Legal Counsel and legal counsel for each other Investor to review and comment upon (i) each Registration Statement ,and (ii) all amendments and supplements to each Registration Statement (including, without limitation, the prospectus contained therein) within a reasonable number of days prior to their filing with the SEC. The Company shall promptly furnish to Legal Counsel and legal counsel for each other Investor, without charge, (i) copies of any correspondence from the SEC or the Staff to the Company or its representatives relating to each Registration Statement, unless such correspondence contains any material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries [(as defined in the Purchase Agreement)], (ii) after the same is prepared and filed with the SEC, one (1) copy of each Registration Statement and any amendment(s) and supplement(s) thereto, including, without limitation, financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference, if requested by an Investor, and all exhibits and (iii) upon the effectiveness of each Registration Statement, one (1) copy of the prospectus included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto. The Company shall reasonably cooperate with Legal Counsel and legal counsel for each other Investor in performing the Company’s obligations pursuant to this Section 3.
(d)          The Company shall promptly furnish to each Investor whose Registrable Securities are included in any Registration Statement, without charge, (i) after the same is prepared and filed with the SEC, at least one (1) copy of each Registration Statement and any amendment(s) and supplement(s) thereto, including, without limitation, financial statements and schedules, all documents incorporated therein by reference, if requested by an Investor, all exhibits and each preliminary prospectus, (ii) upon the effectiveness of each Registration Statement, ten (10) copies of the prospectus included in such Registration Statement and all amendments and supplements thereto (or such other number of copies as such Investor may reasonably request from time to time) and (iii) such other documents, including, without limitation, copies of any preliminary or final prospectus, as such Investor may reasonably request from time to time in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Investor.
(e)          The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) register and qualify, unless an exemption from registration and qualification applies, the resale by Investors of the Registrable Securities
10

covered by a Registration Statement under such other securities or “blue sky” laws of all applicable jurisdictions in the United States, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions, such amendments (including, without limitation, post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof during the Registration Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications in effect at all times during the Registration Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale in such jurisdictions; provided, however, the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to (x) qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 3(e), (y) subject itself to general taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (z) file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction. The Company shall promptly notify Legal Counsel, legal counsel for each other Investor and each Investor who holds Registrable Securities of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the registration or qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in the United States or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.
(f)          The Company shall notify Legal Counsel, legal counsel for each other Investor and each Investor in writing of the happening of any event, as promptly as practicable after becoming aware of such event, as a result of which the prospectus included in a Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (provided that in no event shall such notice contain any material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), and, subject to Section 3(r), promptly prepare a supplement or amendment to such Registration Statement and such prospectus contained therein to correct such untrue statement or omission and deliver ten (10) copies of such supplement or amendment to Legal Counsel, legal counsel for each other Investor and each Investor (or such other number of copies as Legal Counsel, legal counsel for each other Investor or such Investor may reasonably request). The Company shall also promptly notify Legal Counsel, legal counsel for each other Investor and each Investor in writing (i) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, when a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment has become effective (notification of such effectiveness shall be delivered to Legal Counsel, legal counsel for each other Investor and each Investor by facsimile or e-mail on the same day of such effectiveness and by overnight mail), and when the Company receives written notice from the SEC that a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment will be reviewed by the SEC, (ii) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related prospectus or related information, (iii) of the Company’s reasonable determination that a post-effective amendment to a Registration Statement would be appropriate; and (iv) of the receipt of any request by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority for any additional information relating to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement thereto or any related prospectus. The Company shall respond as promptly as practicable to any comments received from the SEC with respect to each Registration Statement or any amendment thereto (it being understood and agreed that the Company’s response to any such comments shall be delivered to the SEC no later than ten (10) Business Days after the receipt thereof).
(g)          The Company shall (i) use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or other suspension of effectiveness of each Registration Statement or the use of any prospectus contained therein, or the suspension of the qualification, or the loss of an exemption from qualification, of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction and, if such an order or suspension is issued, to obtain the withdrawal of such order or suspension at the earliest possible moment and (ii) notify Legal Counsel, legal counsel for each other Investor and each Investor who holds Registrable Securities of the issuance of such order and the resolution thereof or its receipt of actual notice of the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose.
(h)          At the request of any Investor, the Company shall furnish to such Investor, on the date of the effectiveness of such Registration Statement and thereafter from time to time on such dates as an Investor may reasonably request (i) a letter, dated such date, from the Company’s independent certified
11

public accountants in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the Investors, and (ii) an opinion, dated as of such date, of counsel representing the Company for purposes of such Registration Statement, in form, scope and substance as is customarily given in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the Investors.
(i)          Upon the written request of such Investor, in connection with any proposed Request, or Request that has been made, or any proposed or actual Piggyback Registration, the Company shall make available for inspection by (i) such Investor, (ii) legal counsel for such Investor and (iii) one (1) firm of accountants or other agents retained by such Investor (collectively, the “Inspectors”), all pertinent financial and other records, and pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company (collectively, the “Records”), as shall be reasonably deemed necessary by each Inspector, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information which any Inspector may reasonably request; provided, however, each Inspector shall agree in writing to hold in strict confidence and not to make any disclosure (except to such Investor) or use of any Record or other information which the Company’s board of directors determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which determination the Inspectors are so notified, unless (1) the disclosure of such Records is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement or is otherwise required under the 1933 Act, (2) the release of such Records is ordered pursuant to a final, non-appealable subpoena or order from a court or government body of competent jurisdiction, or (3) the information in such Records has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement.  Such Investor agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such Records is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt notice to the Company and allow the Company, at its expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, the Records deemed confidential. Nothing herein (or in any other confidentiality agreement between the Company and such Investor, if any) shall be deemed to limit any Investor’s ability to sell Registrable Securities in a manner which is otherwise consistent with applicable laws and regulations.
(j)          The Company shall hold in confidence and not make any disclosure of information concerning an Investor provided to the Company unless (i) disclosure of such information is necessary to comply with federal or state securities laws, including the disclosure of any such information required under SEC rules to be made with respect to an Investor participating as a selling stockholder (and its affiliates), (ii) the disclosure of such information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in any Registration Statement or is otherwise required to be disclosed in such Registration Statement pursuant to the 1933 Act, (iii) the release of such information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other final, non-appealable order from a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction, or (iv) such information has been made generally available to the public other than by disclosure in violation of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. The Company agrees that it shall, upon learning that disclosure of such information concerning an Investor is sought in or by a court or governmental body of competent jurisdiction or through other means, give prompt written notice to such Investor and allow such Investor, at such Investor’s expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of, or to obtain a protective order for, such information.
(k)          Without limiting any obligation of the Company under the Purchase Agreement, from and after the Commencement Date, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause all of the Registrable Securities covered by each Registration Statement to be listed on the Principal Trading Market. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligations under this Section 3(k).
(l)          The Company shall cooperate with the Investors who hold Registrable Securities being offered and, to the extent applicable, facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legend) representing the Registrable Securities to be offered and sold pursuant to a Registration Statement and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts (as the case may be) as the Investors may reasonably request from time to time and registered in such names as the Investors may request.
12

(m)          If requested by an Investor, the Company shall as soon as practicable after receipt of notice from such Investor and subject to Section 3(r) hereof, (i) incorporate in a prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment such information as an Investor reasonably requests to be included therein relating to the sale and distribution of Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, information with respect to the number of Registrable Securities being offered or sold, the purchase price being paid therefor and any other terms of the offering of the Registrable Securities to be sold in such offering; (ii) make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment after being notified of the matters to be incorporated in such prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; and (iii) supplement or make amendments to any Registration Statement or prospectus contained therein if reasonably requested by an Investor holding any Registrable Securities.
(n)          The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities covered by a Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities.
(o)          The Company shall make generally available to its security holders as soon as practical, but not later than ninety (90) days after the close of the period covered thereby, an earnings statement (in form complying with, and in the manner provided by, the provisions of Rule 158 under the 1933 Act) covering a twelve-month period beginning not later than the first day of the Company’s fiscal quarter next following the applicable Effective Date of each Registration Statement.
(p)          The Company shall otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC in connection with any registration hereunder.
(q)          Within one (1) Business Day after a Registration Statement which covers Registrable Securities is declared effective by the SEC, the Company shall deliver, and shall cause legal counsel for the Company to deliver, to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities (with copies to the Investors whose Registrable Securities are included in such Registration Statement) confirmation that such Registration Statement has been declared effective by the SEC in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A.
(r)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein (but subject to the last sentence of this Section 3(r)), at any time after the Effective Date of a particular Registration Statement, the Company may delay the disclosure of material, non-public information concerning the Company or any of its Subsidiaries the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the good faith opinion of the board of directors of the Company, in the best interest of the Company and, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, otherwise required (a “Grace Period”), provided that the Company shall promptly notify the Investors in writing of the (i) existence of material, non-public information giving rise to a Grace Period (provided that in each such notice the Company shall not disclose the content of such material, non-public information to any of the Investors) and the date on which such Grace Period will begin and (ii) date on which such Grace Period ends, provided further that (I) no Grace Period shall exceed thirty (30) consecutive days and during any three hundred sixty five (365) day period all such Grace Periods shall not exceed an aggregate of ninety (90) days and (II) the first day of any Grace Period must be at least five (5) Trading Days after the last day of any prior Grace Period (each, an “Allowable Grace Period”). For purposes of determining the length of a Grace Period above, such Grace Period shall begin on and include the date the Investors receive the notice referred to in clause (i) above and shall end on and include the later of the date the Investors receive the notice referred to in clause (ii) above and the date referred to in such notice. The provisions of Section 3(f) hereof shall not be applicable during the period of any Allowable Grace Period and the Company may postpone filing, amending or supplementing a Registration Statement during an Allowable Grace Period. Upon expiration of each Grace Period, the Company shall again be bound by the first sentence of Section 3(f) with respect to the information giving rise thereto unless such material, non-public information is no longer applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3(r), the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to a transferee of an Investor [in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement] in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which such Investor has entered into a contract for sale, and delivered a copy of the prospectus included as part of the particular Registration Statement to the extent applicable, prior to
13

such Investor’s receipt of the notice of a Grace Period and for which the Investor has not yet settled.
(s)          The Company shall take all other reasonable actions necessary to expedite and facilitate disposition by each Investor of its Registrable Securities pursuant to each Registration Statement.
4.
Obligations of the Investors.
(a)          At least five (5) Business Days prior to the first anticipated filing date of each Registration Statement, the Company shall notify each Investor in writing of the information the Company requires from each such Investor with respect to such Registration Statement. It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to complete the registration pursuant to this Agreement with respect to the Registrable Securities of a particular Investor that such Investor shall furnish to the Company, at least three (3) Business Days prior to such scheduled filing, such information regarding itself, the Registrable Securities held by it and the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities held by it, as shall be reasonably required to effect and maintain the effectiveness of the registration of such Registrable Securities and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request.
(b)          Each Investor, by such Investor’s acceptance of the Registrable Securities, agrees to cooperate with the Company as reasonably requested by the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of each Registration Statement hereunder, unless such Investor has notified the Company in writing of such Investor’s election to exclude all of such Investor’s Registrable Securities from such Registration Statement.
(c)          Each Investor agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(g) or the first sentence of 3(f), such Investor will immediately discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to any Registration Statement(s) covering such Registrable Securities until such Investor’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3(g) or the first sentence of Section 3(f) or receipt of notice that no supplement or amendment is required. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4(c), the Company shall cause its transfer agent to deliver unlegended shares of Common Stock to a transferee of an Investor [in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement] in connection with any sale of Registrable Securities with respect to which such Investor has entered into a contract for sale prior to the Investor’s receipt of a notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3(g) or the first sentence of Section 3(f) and for which such Investor has not yet settled.
(d)          In the case of any underwritten public offering of the Company’s equity securities, each Investor agrees (i) not to effect any public sale or distribution of any Registrable Securities or of any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such Registrable Securities, including a sale pursuant to Rule 144, or offer to sell, contract to sell (including any short sale), grant any option to purchase or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale of Registrable Securities, in each case, during the seven (7) days prior to and the seventy-five (75)-day period beginning on the date of closing of such offering (or such lesser period as the underwriters may agree) (except as part of such registration) for such public offering (such period of time, the “Holdback Period”), provided, however, that the Holdback Period shall be the same with respect to all Investors; and (ii) to timely execute and deliver a customary “lock-up” agreement acceptable to the underwriters. The underwriters for any such offering shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 4(d).
5.

All reasonable expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to Sections 2 and 3, including, without limitation, all registration, listing and qualifications fees, printers and accounting fees, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority filing fees (if any) and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company shall be paid by the Company. The Company shall also reimburse Buyer for the fees and disbursements of its Legal
14

Counsel in connection with registration, filing or qualification pursuant to Sections 2 and 3 of this Agreement which amount shall be limited with respect to each Registration Statement to $[50,000].
6.
Indemnification.
(a)          To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Investor and each of its directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees, agents, advisors, representatives (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding the lack of such title or any other title) and each Person, if any, who controls such Investor within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act and each of the directors, officers, shareholders, members, partners, employees, agents, advisors, representatives (and any other Persons with a functionally equivalent role of a Person holding such titles notwithstanding the lack of such title or any other title) of such controlling Persons (each, an “Indemnified Person”), against any losses, obligations, claims, damages, liabilities, contingencies, judgments, fines, penalties, charges, costs (including, without limitation, court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of defense and investigation), amounts paid in settlement or expenses, joint or several, (collectively, “Claims”) incurred in investigating, preparing or defending any action, claim, suit, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or appeal taken from the foregoing by or before any court or governmental, administrative or other regulatory agency, body or the SEC, whether pending or threatened, whether or not an indemnified party is or may be a party thereto (“Indemnified Damages”), to which any of them may become subject insofar as such Claims (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact in a Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto or in any filing made in connection with the qualification of the offering under the securities or other “blue sky” laws of any jurisdiction in which Registrable Securities are offered (“Blue Sky Filing”), or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus if used prior to the effective date of such Registration Statement, or contained in the final prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if the Company files any amendment thereof or supplement thereto with the SEC) or the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which the statements therein were made, not misleading or (iii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, any other law, including, without limitation, any state securities law, or any rule or regulation thereunder relating to the offer or sale of the Registrable Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement (the matters in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii) being, collectively, “Violations”). Subject to Section 6(c), the Company shall reimburse the Indemnified Persons, promptly as such expenses are incurred and are due and payable, for any legal fees or other reasonable expenses incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the indemnification agreement contained in this Section 6(a): (i) shall not apply to a Claim by an Indemnified Person arising out of or based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Person for such Indemnified Person expressly for use in connection with the preparation of such Registration Statement or any such amendment thereof or supplement thereto and (ii) shall not be available to a particular Investor to the extent such Claim is based on a failure of such Investor to deliver or to cause to be delivered the prospectus made available by the Company (to the extent applicable), including, without limitation, a corrected prospectus, if such prospectus or corrected prospectus was timely made available by the Company pursuant to Section 3(d) and then only if, and to the extent that, following the receipt of the corrected prospectus no grounds for such Claim would have existed; and (iii) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of any of the Registrable Securities by any of the Investors pursuant to Section 9.
(b)          In connection with any Registration Statement in which an Investor is participating, such Investor agrees to severally and not jointly indemnify, hold harmless and defend, to the same extent and in
15

the same manner as is set forth in Section 6(a), the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (each, an “Indemnified Party”), against any Claim or Indemnified Damages to which any of them may become subject, under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, insofar as such Claim or Indemnified Damages arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case, to the extent, and only to the extent, that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Investor expressly for use in connection with such Registration Statement; and, subject to Section 6(c) and the below provisos in this Section 6(b), such Investor will reimburse an Indemnified Party any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such Claim; provided, however, the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 6(b) and the agreement with respect to contribution contained in Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Claim if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of such Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided further that such Investor shall be liable under this Section 6(b) for only that amount of a Claim or Indemnified Damages as does not exceed the net proceeds to such Investor as a result of the applicable sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party and shall survive the transfer of any of the Registrable Securities by any of the Investors pursuant to Section 9.
(c)          Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party (as the case may be) under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding (including, without limitation, any governmental action or proceeding) involving a Claim, such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party (as the case may be) shall, if a Claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 6, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof, and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying party and the Indemnified Person or the Indemnified Party (as the case may be); provided, however, an Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party (as the case may be) shall have the right to retain its own counsel with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by the indemnifying party if: (i) the indemnifying party has at that time agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; (ii) the indemnifying party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Claim and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party (as the case may be) in any such Claim; or (iii) the named parties to any such Claim (including, without limitation, any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party (as the case may be) and the indemnifying party, and such Indemnified Person or such Indemnified Party (as the case may be) shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Person or such Indemnified Party and the indemnifying party (in which case, if such Indemnified Person or such Indemnified Party (as the case may be) notifies the indemnifying party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, then the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, provided further that in the case of clause (iii) above the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one (1) separate legal counsel for such Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party (as the case may be). The Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person (as the case may be) shall reasonably cooperate with the indemnifying party in connection with any negotiation or defense of any such action or Claim by the indemnifying party and shall furnish to the indemnifying party all information reasonably available to the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person (as the case may be) which relates to such action or Claim. The indemnifying party shall keep the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person (as the case may be) reasonably apprised at all times as to the status of the defense or any settlement negotiations with respect thereto. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any action, claim or proceeding effected without its prior written consent; provided, however, the indemnifying party shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent.  No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person (as the case may be), consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or other compromise which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the
16

claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person (as the case may be) of a release from all liability in respect to such Claim or litigation, and such settlement shall not include any admission as to fault on the part of the Indemnified Party. Following indemnification as provided for hereunder, the indemnifying party shall be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person (as the case may be) with respect to all third parties, firms or corporations relating to the matter for which indemnification has been made. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action shall not relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the Indemnified Person or Indemnified Party (as the case may be) under this Section 6, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially and adversely prejudiced in its ability to defend such action.
(d)          The indemnification required by this Section 6 shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or Indemnified Damages are incurred.
(e)          The indemnity and contribution agreements contained herein shall be in addition to (i) any cause of action or similar right of the Indemnified Party or Indemnified Person against the indemnifying party or others, and (ii) any liabilities the indemnifying party may be subject to pursuant to the law.
7.
Contribution.
To the extent any indemnification by an indemnifying party is prohibited or limited by law, the indemnifying party agrees to make the maximum contribution with respect to any amounts for which it would otherwise be liable under Section 6 to the fullest extent permitted by law; provided, however: (i) no contribution shall be made under circumstances where the maker would not have been liable for indemnification under the fault standards set forth in Section 6 of this Agreement, (ii) no Person involved in the sale of Registrable Securities which Person is guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) in connection with such sale shall be entitled to contribution from any Person involved in such sale of Registrable Securities who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation; and (iii) contribution by any seller of Registrable Securities shall be limited in amount to the amount of net proceeds received by such seller from the applicable sale of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, no Investor shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds actually received by such Investor from the applicable sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the Claim exceeds the amount of any damages that such Investor has otherwise been required to pay, or would otherwise be required to pay under Section 6(b), by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.
8.
Reports Under the 1934 Act.
The Company shall cause the Commencement Date to occur by no later than June 30, 2020.  With a view to making available to the Investors the benefits of Rule 144, the Company agrees, from and after the Commencement Date and continuing until all Registrable Securities have been sold, to:
(a)          make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144;
(b)          file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements (it being understood and agreed that nothing herein shall limit any obligations of the Company under the Purchase Agreement) and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144; and
(c)          furnish to each Investor so long as such Investor owns Registrable Securities, promptly upon request, (i) a written statement by the Company, if true, that it has complied with the reporting,
17

submission and posting requirements of Rule 144 and the 1934 Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other reports and documents so filed by the Company with the SEC if such reports are not publicly available via EDGAR, and (iii) such other information as may be reasonably requested to permit the Investors to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration.
9.
Assignment of Registration Rights.
All or any portion of the rights under this Agreement shall be automatically assignable by each Investor to any transferee or assignee (as the case may be) of all or any portion of such Investor’s Registrable Securities, Warrants or Preferred Shares if: (i) such Investor agrees in writing with such transferee or assignee (as the case may be) to assign all or any portion of such rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company within a reasonable time after such transfer or assignment (as the case may be); (ii) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer or assignment (as the case may be), furnished with written notice of (a) the name and address of such transferee or assignee (as the case may be), and (b) the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned (as the case may be); (iii) immediately following such transfer or assignment (as the case may be) the further disposition of such securities by such transferee or assignee (as the case may be) is restricted under the 1933 Act or applicable state securities laws if so required; (iv) at or before the time the Company receives the written notice contemplated by clause (ii) of this sentence such transferee or assignee (as the case may be) agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions contained herein; (v) such transfer or assignment (as the case may be) shall have been made in accordance with the applicable requirements, if any, of the Purchase Agreement, the Warrants and the Preferred Shares  (as the case may be); and (vi) such transfer or assignment (as the case may be) shall have been conducted in accordance with all applicable federal and state securities laws.
10.
Amendment of Registration Rights.
Provisions of this Agreement may be amended only with the written consent of the Company and the Required Investors. Any amendment effected in accordance with this Section 10 shall be binding upon each Investor and the Company, provided that no such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it (1) applies to less than all of the holders of the holders of Registrable Securities or (2) imposes any obligation or liability on any Investor without such Investor’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Investor’s sole discretion). No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party, provided that the Required Investors may waive any provision of this Agreement, and any waiver of any provision of this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 10 shall be binding on each Investor, provided that no such waiver shall be effective to the extent that it (1) applies to less than all of the holders of the holders of Registrable Securities (unless a party gives a waiver as to itself only) or (2) imposes any obligation or liability on any Investor without such Investor’s prior written consent (which may be granted or withheld in such Investor’s sole discretion). No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of this Agreement unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to this Agreement.
11.

any bond or other security being required), this being in addition to any other remedy to which any party may be entitled by law or equity.
(d)          All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdictions) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of Delaware. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in Wilmington, Delaware, for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby or discussed herein, and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit, action or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof to such party at the address for such notices to it under this Agreement and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any manner permitted by law. If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO, AND AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A JURY TRIAL FOR THE ADJUDICATION OF ANY DISPUTE HEREUNDER OR IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents, the schedules and exhibits attached hereto and thereto and the instruments referenced herein and therein supersede all prior agreements and understandings among the parties hereto solely with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof; provided, however, nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall (or shall be deemed to) (i) have any effect on any agreements any Investor has entered into with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the date hereof with respect to any prior investment made by such Investor in the Company, (ii) waive, alter, modify or amend in any respect any obligations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any rights of or benefits to any Investor or any other Person in any agreement entered into prior to the date hereof between or among the Company and/or any of its Subsidiaries and any Investor and all such agreements shall continue in full force and effect or (iii) limit any obligations of the Company under any of the other Transaction Documents.
(f)          Subject to compliance with Section 9 (if applicable), this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the permitted successors and assigns of each of the parties hereto. This Agreement is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any Person, other than the parties hereto, their respective permitted successors and assigns and the Persons referred to in Sections 6 and 7 hereof.
(g)          The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, each pronoun herein shall be deemed to include the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular and plural forms thereof. The terms “including,” “includes,” “include” and words of like import shall be construed broadly as if followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof” and words of like import refer to this entire Agreement instead of just the provision in which they are found.
20

(h)          This Agreement may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by an e-mail which contains a portable document format (.pdf) file of an executed signature page, such signature page shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.
(i)          Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(k)          The obligations of each Investor under this Agreement are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Investor, and no Investor shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Investor under this Agreement. Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by any Investor pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Investors as, and the Company acknowledges that the Investors do not so constitute, a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of group or entity, or create a presumption that the Investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group or entity with respect to such obligations or any matters, and the Company acknowledges that the Investors are not acting in concert or as a group, and the Company shall not assert any such claim, with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each Investor shall be entitled to independently protect (except to the extent set forth in Section 10) and enforce its rights (including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement, and it shall not be necessary for any other Investor to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. The use of a single agreement with respect to the obligations of the Company contained herein was solely in the control of the Company, not the action or decision of any Investor, and was done solely for the convenience of the Company and not because it was required or requested to do so by any Investor. It is expressly understood and agreed that each provision contained in this Agreement is between the Company and an Investor, solely, and not between the Company and the Investors collectively and not between and among Investors.

The selling stockholders may also sell shares of common stock under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if available, rather than under this prospectus. In addition, the selling stockholders may transfer the shares of common stock by other means not described in this prospectus. If the selling stockholders effect such transactions by selling shares of common stock to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or agents, such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may receive

commissions in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders or commissions from purchasers of the shares of common stock for whom they may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal (which discounts, concessions or commissions as to particular underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be in excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved). In connection with sales of the shares of common stock or otherwise, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares of common stock in the course of hedging in positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of common stock short and deliver shares of common stock covered by this prospectus to close out short positions and to return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales. The selling stockholders may also loan or pledge shares of common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell such shares.
The selling stockholders may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock [, warrants and/or preferred stock] owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock from time to time pursuant to this prospectus or any amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending, if necessary, the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer and donate the shares of common stock in other circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
To the extent required by the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, the selling stockholders and any broker-dealer participating in the distribution of the shares of common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any commission paid, or any discounts or concessions allowed to, any such broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. At the time a particular offering of the shares of common stock is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed, which will set forth the aggregate amount of shares of common stock being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any broker-dealers or agents, any discounts, commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the selling stockholders and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to broker-dealers.
Under the securities laws of some states, the shares of common stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the shares of common stock may not be sold unless such shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.
There can be no assurance that any selling stockholder will sell any or all of the shares of common stock registered pursuant to the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part.
The selling stockholders and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, to the extent applicable, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholders and any other participating person. To the extent applicable, Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares of common stock to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares of common stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock.
We will pay all expenses of the registration of the shares of common stock pursuant to the registration rights agreement, estimated to be $[     ] in total, including, without limitation, Securities and Exchange Commission filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws; provided, however, a selling stockholder will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions, if any. We will indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including some liabilities under the

Securities Act in accordance with the registration rights agreements or the selling stockholders will be entitled to contribution. We may be indemnified by the selling stockholders against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act that may arise from any written information furnished to us by the selling stockholder specifically for use in this prospectus, in accordance with the related registration rights agreements or we may be entitled to contribution.

Once sold under the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, the shares of common stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

Celadon Group Completes $165 Million in New Long-Term Financing

·
Stable long-term capital structure replaces expiring credit facility
·
3-year, $165 million revolving line of credit and term loan facilities plus     warrants for approximately 33% of common stock and equivalents
·
New tractor deliveries are underway, underpinning operating turnaround with high service, improved operating efficiency, and a continued focus on safety

INDIANAPOLIS – July 31, 2019 – Celadon Group, Inc. (“Celadon,” the “Company,” “we,” or “us”) (OTCPink: CGIP) announced today that it has refinanced its former revolving credit facility and obtained $165 million in new financing.

Company Commentary
Chief Executive Officer, Paul Svindland, commented: “This financing provides a solid platform for the next stage of our business turnaround.  A strong capital base is critical to providing dependable service for customers, a modern fleet for our drivers, and a stable home for all Celadon associates. We are grateful to our new financing partners for investing the time to understand our plan and the capital to support it.”

Mr. Svindland continued, “As a company, we are highly energized by the opportunities ahead.  Over the past two years, we have exited several business units and become a focused North American truckload transportation company.  Despite numerous headwinds, including an older tractor fleet, we have achieved meaningful improvements in revenue per seated tractor, customer service, and safety.
 


“The linchpin to our next round of improvement involves replacing approximately 2,000 four and five-year old tractors with new units.  Our fleet refresh is underway, with approximately 100 new trucks delivered since May, another 100 scheduled for August, and approximately 1,800 more expected to arrive over the next several quarters.  These new trucks will dramatically lower our costs, enhance productivity, and improve the lives and safety of our professional drivers.  Beyond the fleet refresh, we must return to our historical roots as a high-service, low cost provider to our customers. We will have all the tools, and it is now up to our team to execute our plan.”

Mr. Svindland concluded, “Outside of core operations, we expect to complete our financial statement audit during our second or third quarter of fiscal 2020.  Promptly thereafter, we intend to resume filing financial reports with the SEC and to seek a listing on a national stock exchange.”

Highlights of the new revolving credit facility include the following:

·
Facility Size:  $60.0 million
·
Interest Rate:  LIBOR + 3.50%
·
Borrowing Base:  90% of eligible U.S and Canadian accounts receivable
·

·

Equity Warrants
The junior tranche term loan provider is receiving the warrants in the transaction.  Highlights of the warrants include the following:

·
Warrant Shares:  Warrants to purchase 16.0 million common shares (or convertible preferred shares) are exercisable immediately, and warrants to purchase approximately 5.5 million shares become exercisable only in a change of control
·
Fully Diluted Percentage:  Aggregate warrants equal approximately 33% of the Company’s fully diluted equity; When added to shares currently owned, the holder’s fully diluted position will be approximately 49.9%
·
Strike Price:  One cent per share
·
Other:  Board observer rights, registration rights, requirement to hold a stockholders’ meeting to approve an increase in authorized common stock, and the Company’s Board of Directors granted an exemption for the transaction to avoid triggering the Company’s stockholder rights plan
