In the event of a change in GAAP with respect to accounting for leases, the financial covenants shall be calculated on a basis consistent with GAAP as in effect prior to such change. To enable the ready determination of compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 9 hereof, the Company will not change from December 31 in each year the date on which its fiscal year ends, nor from March 31, June 30 and September 30 the dates on which the first three fiscal quarters in each fiscal year end.

1.03.       Types of Loans. Loans hereunder are distinguished by “Type”.  The “Type” of a Loan refers to the determination of whether such Loan is a Eurocurrency Loan, BBSY Loan, CDOR Loan, C$ Prime Loan or an ABR Loan.

(ii)           If any Lender is willing, in its sole and absolute discretion, to increase the amount of its Revolving Commitment hereunder (such a Lender hereinafter referred to as an “Increasing Lender”), it shall enter into a written agreement to that effect with the Company and the Administrative Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit K (a “Commitment Increase Supplement”), which agreement shall specify, among other things, (x) the amount of the increased Revolving Commitment of such Increasing Lender and (y) the allocation of such increased Revolving Commitment to the US$ Commitments, the US$-Canadian Commitments and/or the Multi-Currency Commitments.  Upon the effectiveness of such Increasing Lender’s increase in Revolving Commitment, Schedule I shall, without further action, be deemed to have been amended appropriately to reflect the increased Revolving Commitment and of such Increasing Lender.  Any Other Lender that is willing to become a party hereto and a Lender hereunder (and which arrangement to become a party hereto and a Lender hereunder has been consulted by the Company with the Administrative Agent) shall enter into a written agreement with the Company and the Administrative Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit L (an “Additional Lender

40

Supplement”), which agreement shall specify, among other things, its Revolving Commitment hereunder.  When such Other Lender becomes a Lender hereunder as set forth in the Additional Lender Supplement, Schedule I shall, without further action, be deemed to have been amended as appropriate to reflect the Revolving Commitment of such Other Lender.  Upon the execution by the Administrative Agent, the Company and such Other Lender of such Additional Lender Supplement, such Other Lender shall become and be deemed a party hereto and a “Lender” hereunder for all purposes hereof and shall enjoy all rights and assume all obligations on the part of the Lenders set forth in this Agreement, and its Revolving Commitment shall be the amount specified in its Additional Lender Supplement.  Each Other Lender that executes and delivers an Additional Lender Supplement and becomes a party hereto and a “Lender” hereunder pursuant to such Additional Lender Supplement is hereinafter referred to as an “Additional Lender.”

(iv)          No Other Lender may become an Additional Lender unless an Additional Lender Supplement (or counterparts thereof) has been signed by such bank or financial institution and which Additional Lender Supplement has been agreed to and acknowledged by the Company and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent.  No consent of any Lender or acknowledgment of any of the other Lenders hereunder shall be required therefor.  In no event shall the Revolving Commitment of any Lender be increased by reason of any bank or financial institution becoming an Additional Lender, or otherwise, but the aggregate Revolving Commitments hereunder shall be increased by the amount of each Additional Lender’s Revolving Commitment.  Upon any Lender entering into a Commitment Increase Supplement or any Additional Lender becoming a party hereto, the Administrative Agent shall notify each other Lender thereof and shall deliver to each Lender a copy of the Additional Lender Supplement executed by such Additional Lender, agreed

41

to and acknowledged by the Company and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and the Commitment Increase Supplement executed by such Increasing Lender, agreed to and acknowledged by the Company and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent.

(iii)          In no event shall any Incremental Term Loans be made until the Administrative Agent shall have received a favorable written opinion of counsel for the Obligors, addressed to the

42

Lenders, with respect to the matters set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9 and 10 of Exhibit I-1 as they relate to this Agreement and the borrowings hereunder after giving effect to the borrowings of the Incremental Term Loans.  In no event shall any Incremental Term Loans be made until the Administrative Agent shall have received a copy of the resolutions, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, of the Board of Directors of the Company authorizing the borrowings contemplated pursuant to such increase, certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company.

(ii)           The Swingline Lender agrees to make a portion of the credit otherwise available to the US$-Canadian Borrowers under the US$-Canadian Commitments from time to time during the Commitment Period by making swing line loans (“US$-Canadian Swingline Loans”) to the US$-Canadian Borrowers in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to but not exceeding the amount of the US$-Canadian Swingline Commitment (notwithstanding that the US$-Canadian Swingline Loans outstanding at any time, when aggregated with the US$-Canadian Swingline Lender’s other outstanding Revolving Loans, may exceed the US$-Canadian Swingline Commitment then in effect), provided that in no event shall the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all US$-Canadian Loans and US$-Canadian Swingline Loans, together with the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities under the US$-Canadian Commitments outstanding, exceed the aggregate amount of the US$-Canadian Commitments as in effect from time to time.  During the Commitment Period, the US$-Canadian Borrowers may use the US$-Canadian Swingline Commitment by borrowing, repaying and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.  US$-Canadian Swingline Loans shall be C$ Prime Loans or Agreed Rate Loans.  For purposes of calculating the commitment fee payable in respect of the US$-Canadian Commitments under Section 2.03, the US$-Canadian Swingline Loans shall not be treated as usage of the US$-Canadian Commitments.  US$-Canadian Swingline Loans shall be denominated only in Canadian Dollars.

2.04.       Lending Offices. The Loans of each Type made by each Lender shall be made and maintained at such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office for Loans of such Type.

2.05.       Several Obligations: Remedies Independent. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan to be made by it on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to make its Loan on such date, but neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan to be made by such other Lender.

2.06.       Notes.  Each applicable Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue a Note to any Lender (each, a “Note”) in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1 (in the case of Revolving Loans) or Exhibit A-2 (in the case of Term Loans) hereto, dated the Closing Date (or, in the case of any Incremental Term Loans, dated the date such Loans are made), payable to such Lender in a principal amount equal to the relevant Revolving Commitment of such Lender as in effect on the Closing Date, the relevant Initial Term Loans of such Lender on the Closing Date or the relevant Incremental Term Loans of such Lender thereafter, and otherwise duly completed. Each Lender is hereby authorized by the Company to endorse on the schedule (or a continuation thereof) attached to each Note of such Lender, to the extent applicable, the date, amount and Type of and the Interest Period (if any) for each Loan made by such Lender to the Company under the relevant Revolving Commitment or with respect to the relevant Loan, and the date and amount of each payment or prepayment of principal of such Loan received by such Lender, provided that any failure by such Lender to make any such endorsement shall not affect the obligations of the Company under such Note or hereunder in respect of such Loan.

2.08.       Letters of Credit.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the US$ Commitments and the Multi-Currency Commitments may be utilized, upon the request of the Company, in addition to the Loans provided for by Section 2.01 hereof or in Annex A hereto, as the case may be, for the issuance by the Issuing Bank of standby letters of credit (collectively with the Existing Letters of Credit, “Letters of Credit”) in Dollars or another currency available under the US$ Commitments or the Multi-Currency Commitments, as the case may be, for the account of the Parent or for the account (jointly and severally with the Parent) of such of its Subsidiaries as the

46

Company may specify, provided that in no event shall (i) the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities under the US$ Commitments or the Multi-Currency Commitments, together with the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the US$ Loans or the Multi-Currency Loans, as the case may be, exceed the aggregate amount of the US$ Commitments or the Multi-Currency Commitments, as the case may be, as in effect from time to time, (ii) the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities in respect of Letters of Credit issued by an Issuing Bank and its Affiliates exceed such Issuing Bank’s Issuing Bank Sublimit at any time, (iii) the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit at any time and (iv) the expiration date of any Letter of Credit extend beyond the earlier of the Commitment Termination Date and the date one year following the issuance of such Letter of Credit (provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods, which periods shall in any event not extend beyond the Commitment Termination Date).  On the Closing Date, all Existing Letters of Credit shall automatically, without any action on the part of any Person, be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued and outstanding hereunder (with the Existing Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars being deemed to be issued under the US$ Commitments and the Existing Letters of Credit denominated in other currencies being deemed to be issued under the Multi-Currency Commitments).  On any Business Day after the Closing Date, an Issuing Bank may, with the consent of the Company, include as a Letter of Credit outstanding hereunder any letter of credit previously issued by it for the account of the Company or any other Borrower, subject to the requirements (including as to notice) that would be applicable to such letter of credit if it were issued on such Business Day hereunder.

The following additional provisions shall apply to Letters of Credit:

1)            The Company shall give the Administrative Agent (or if the Letter of Credit is to be issued under the Multi-Currency Commitments, the Multi-Currency Payment Agent) at least three Business Days’ irrevocable prior notice (effective upon receipt) specifying the Business Day (which shall be no later than five days preceding the Commitment Termination Date) on which each Letter of Credit is to be issued, modified or supplemented and the account party or parties therefor and describing in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Letter of Credit (including the beneficiary thereof), or modification or supplement thereto, and the nature of the transactions or obligations proposed to be supported thereby.  Any Letter of Credit to be issued in a currency other than Dollars shall be issued under the Multi-Currency Commitments. Upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be, shall advise the Issuing Bank of the contents thereof.  The Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be, of the issuance, modification or supplementation of any Letter of Credit and of any termination or expiry thereof.

2)            On each day during the period commencing with the issuance by the Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit and until such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been terminated, the US$ Commitment or Multi-Currency Commitment of each Lender shall be deemed to be utilized for all purposes of this Agreement in an amount equal to such Lender’s US$ Commitment Percentage or Multi-Currency Percentage, as the case may be, of the then undrawn stated amount of such Letter of Credit. Each Lender (other than the Issuing Bank) agrees that, upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit hereunder, it shall

47

automatically acquire a participation in the Issuing Bank’s rights and obligations under such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to such Lender’s US$ Commitment Percentage or Multi-Currency Percentage, as the case may be, of such rights and obligations, and each Lender (other than the Issuing Bank) thereby shall automatically absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and be unconditionally obligated to the Issuing Bank to pay and discharge when due, its US$ Commitment Percentage or Multi-Currency Percentage of the Issuing Bank’s obligation to pay drawings under such Letter of Credit.

3)            Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any demand for payment under such Letter of Credit that the Issuing Bank determines to be in compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall promptly, upon determination of the date on which payment is to be made, notify the Company (through the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be) of the amount to be paid by the Issuing Bank as a result of such demand and the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing Bank to such beneficiary in respect of such demand.  Notwithstanding the identity of the account party of any Letter of Credit, each of the Parent and the Company (and each other account party) hereby unconditionally agrees to pay and reimburse the Administrative Agent, or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be, for account of the Issuing Bank for the amount of each demand for payment under such Letter of Credit at or prior to the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing Bank to the beneficiary thereunder, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind.  The Parent’s and the Company’s (and each other account party’s) obligations under this paragraph (3) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that any Borrower may have or have had against the Issuing Bank, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person.  The Parent and the Company (and each other account party) also agree with the Issuing Bank that the Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for, and the Reimbursement Obligations of the Parent and the Company (and each other account party) under this paragraph (3) shall not be affected by, among other things, (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (b) any draft or other documents presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (c) any dispute between or among the Obligors and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of any Obligor against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee, (d) payments by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (e) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the obligations of the Parent and the Company (and each other account party) hereunder.  The Issuing Bank shall not have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or message or advice, however transmitted, in

48

connection with any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Parent or the Company to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Parent and the Company (and each other account party) to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Parent or the Company (or other account party) that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.  The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination.  In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliances with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

4)            Forthwith upon its receipt of a notice referred to in paragraph (3) of this Section 2.08, the Company shall advise the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be, whether or not the Company intends to borrow hereunder to finance its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount of the related demand for payment and, if it does, submit a notice of such borrowing as provided in Section 5.05 hereof.

5)            Each Lender (other than the Issuing Bank) shall pay to the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be, for account of the Issuing Bank at an account in New York, New York specified by the Administrative Agent (or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be) in Dollars or in another currency available under the US$ Commitments or Multi-Currency Commitments, as the case may be, and in immediately available funds the amount of such Lender’s US$ Commitment Percentage or Multi-Currency Percentage of any payment under a Letter of Credit issued under the US$ Commitments or the Multi-Currency Commitments, as the case may be, upon notice by the Issuing Bank (through the Administrative Agent) to such Lender requesting such payment and specifying such amount. Each such Lender’s obligation to make such payment to the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be, for account of the Issuing Bank under this paragraph (5), and the Issuing Bank’s right to receive the same, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, the failure of any other Lender to make its payment under this paragraph (5), the financial condition of the Parent or the Company (or any other account party), any failure to satisfy any condition precedent to any Loan, the existence of any Default or the termination of the Commitments.  Each such payment to or for the account of the Issuing Bank shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. If any Lender shall

49

default in its obligation to make any such payment to the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be, for account of the Issuing Bank, for so long as such default shall continue the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be, may at the request of the Issuing Bank withhold from any payments received by the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be, under this Agreement for account of such Lender the amount so in default and, to the extent so withheld, pay the same to the Issuing Bank in satisfaction of such defaulted obligation.

6)            Upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit hereunder, each Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of the Administrative Agent (or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent), the Issuing Bank or such Lender, acquire (i) a participation in an amount equal to the payment by such Lender to the Issuing Bank pursuant to paragraph (5) above in the Reimbursement Obligation owing to the Issuing Bank hereunder and under the Letter of Credit Documents relating to such Letter of Credit and (ii) a participation in a percentage equal to such Lender’s US$ Commitment Percentage or Multi-Currency Percentage, as the case may be, in any interest or other amounts payable by the Company hereunder and under such Letter of Credit Documents in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation (other than the commissions, charges, costs and expenses payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to paragraph (7) of this Section 2.08). Upon receipt by the Issuing Bank from or for account of the Company of any payment in respect of any Reimbursement Obligation or any such interest or other amount (including by way of setoff or application of proceeds of any collateral security) the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such receipt and pay to the Administrative Agent (or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent) for account of each Lender entitled thereto such Lender’s US$ Commitment Percentage or Multi-Currency Percentage, as the case may be, of such payment, each such payment by the Issuing Bank to be made in the same money and funds in which received by the Issuing Bank. In the event any payment received by the Issuing Bank and so paid to the Lenders hereunder is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Issuing Bank, each Lender shall, upon the request of the Issuing Bank (through the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be), repay to the Issuing Bank (through the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be) the amount of such payment paid to such Lender, with interest at the rate specified in paragraph (10) of this Section 2.08.

7)            The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be, for account of the Lenders (ratably in accordance with their respective US$ Commitment Percentages or Multi-Currency Percentages, as the case may be) a letter of credit fee in Dollars in respect of each Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the Applicable L/C Percentage of the daily average undrawn stated amount of such Letter of Credit for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (i) in the case of a Letter of Credit that expires in accordance with its terms, to and including such expiration date and (ii) in the case of a Letter of Credit that is drawn in full or is otherwise terminated other than on the stated expiration date of such Letter of Credit, to but excluding the date such Letter of Credit is drawn in full or is terminated (such fee to be non-refundable, to be paid in arrears on each Quarterly Date and on the Commitment Termination Date and on the date of expiry or termination or full utilization of such Letter

50

of Credit and to be calculated for any day after giving effect to any payments made under such Letter of Credit on such day). In addition, the Company shall pay to the Issuing Bank a fronting fee in Dollars in respect of each Letter of Credit in an amount equal to a percentage per annum of the daily average undrawn stated amount of such Letter of Credit for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (i) in the case of a Letter of Credit that expires in accordance with its terms, to and including such expiration date and (ii) in the case of a Letter of Credit that is drawn in full or is otherwise terminated other than on the stated expiration date of such Letter of Credit, to but excluding the date such Letter of Credit is drawn in full or is terminated (such fee to be non-refundable, to be paid in arrears on each Quarterly Date and on the Commitment Termination Date and to be calculated for any day after giving effect to any payments made under such Letter of Credit on such day) plus all commissions, charges, costs and expenses in the amounts customarily charged by the Issuing Bank from time to time in like circumstances with respect to the issuance of each Letter of Credit and drawings and other transactions relating thereto.  The Company may designate Lenders as Issuing Lenders on the basis of competitive quotes of such fronting fees.

8)            Promptly following the end of each calendar month, the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as applicable, shall deliver to each Lender and the Company a notice describing the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at the end of such month (based on information previously received from the Issuing Banks).  Upon the request of any Lender from time to time, the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as applicable, shall deliver any other information reasonably requested by such Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit then outstanding.

9)            The issuance by the Issuing Bank of each Letter of Credit shall, in addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Section 7 hereof, be subject to the conditions precedent that (i) such Letter of Credit shall be in such form, contain such terms and support such transactions as shall be satisfactory to the Issuing Bank consistent with its then current practices and procedures with respect to letters of credit of the same type, (ii) such Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars or a Multi-Currency and (iii) the Company shall have executed and delivered such applications, agreements and other instruments relating to such Letter of Credit as the Issuing Bank shall have reasonably requested consistent with its then current practices and procedures with respect to letters of credit of the same type, provided that in the event of any conflict between any such application, agreement or other instrument and the provisions of this Agreement or any Security Document, the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents shall control.

10)          To the extent that any Lender shall fail to pay any amount required to be paid pursuant to paragraph (5) or (6) of this Section 2.08 on the due date therefor, such Lender shall pay interest to the Issuing Bank (through the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be) on such amount from and including such due date to but excluding the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate or, in the case of any amount payable in a currency other than Dollars, the rate determined by the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency

51

Payment Agent (in the case of Letters of Credit issued under the Multi-Currency Commitments) in its discretion as the appropriate rate for interbank settlements, provided that if such Lender shall fail to make such payment to the Issuing Bank within three Business Days of such due date, then, retroactively to the due date, such Lender shall be obligated to pay interest on such amount at the rate then payable by the Company on such amount.

11)          The issuance by the Issuing Bank of any modification or supplement to any Letter of Credit hereunder shall be subject to the same conditions as are applicable under this Section 2.08 to the issuance of new Letters of Credit, and no such modification or supplement shall be issued hereunder unless either (i) the respective Letter of Credit affected thereby would have complied with such conditions had it originally been issued hereunder in such modified or supplemented form or (ii) each Lender shall have consented thereto.

12)          The Company and each other Borrower hereby indemnify and hold harmless each Lender (including the Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent and the Multi-Currency Payment Agent) from and against any and all claims and damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) that such Lender, the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent may incur (or that may be claimed against such Lender, Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent by any Person whatsoever) by reason of or in connection with (i) the execution and delivery or transfer of or payment or refusal to pay by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the issuance of or drawing  under the Letters of Credit or the consummation of any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding is brought by any Obligor or its equity holders, Affiliates, creditors or any other Person and whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to the Issuing Bank, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Bank.

2.09.       Currency Fluctuations, Etc.

(a)           Not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on each Calculation Date, the Multi-Currency Payment Agent shall (i) determine the Exchange Rate as of such Calculation Date with respect to (w) each Multi-Currency for which there are at such time outstanding Multi-Currency Loans or Letters of Credit issued under the Multi-Currency Commitments, (x) the Canadian Dollar if there are at such time outstanding non-Dollar-denominated US$-Canadian Loans and (y) Pounds Sterling and euro if there are at such time outstanding

52

non-Dollar-denominated US$ Loans and (ii) give notice thereof to the Multi-Currency Lenders which have committed to make Multi-Currency Loans in each such Multi-Currency, to the US$-Canadian Lenders which have committed to make US$-Canadian Loans in Canadian Dollars, to the US$ Lenders which have committed to make US$ Loans in Pounds Sterling and euro and to the Company.  The Exchange Rates so determined shall become effective on the first Business Day immediately following the relevant Calculation Date (a “Reset Date”) and shall remain effective until the next succeeding Reset Date.

(b)           Not later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on each Reset Date, the Multi-Currency Payment Agent shall (i) determine (w) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of Multi-Currency Loans, Multi-Currency Swingline Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities under the Multi-Currency Commitments in each Multi-Currency then outstanding (after giving effect to any Multi-Currency Loans to be made or repaid on such date) (the “Outstanding Multi-Currency Amount”), (x) the Dollar-denominated US$-Canadian Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities outstanding under the US$-Canadian Commitments, and the Dollar Equivalent of the Canadian Dollar denominated US$-Canadian CDOR Loans and of the C$ Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities under the Canadian Commitments then outstanding (after giving effect to any non-Dollar-denominated US$-Canadian Loans to be made or repaid on such date) (the “Outstanding US$-Canadian Amount”) and (y) the Dollar-denominated US$ Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities under the US$ Commitments, and the Dollar Equivalent of the Pounds Sterling denominated and euro denominated US$ Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities outstanding under the US$ Commitments then outstanding (after giving effect to any non-Dollar-denominated US$ Loans to be made or repaid on such date) (the “Outstanding US$ Amount”) and (ii) notify the Multi-Currency Lenders, the US$-Canadian Lenders or US$ Lenders, as the case may be, and the Company of the results of such determination.

(c)           If on any Reset Date, the Outstanding Multi-Currency Amount exceeds 105% of the aggregate amount of the Multi-Currency Commitments, then the Company, the Parent or the relevant Borrower shall, within three Business Days after notice thereof from the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, prepay (in any Multi-Currency as selected by the Company or such Borrower) Multi-Currency Loans in an aggregate amount such that, after giving effect thereto, the Outstanding Multi-Currency Amount shall be equal to or less than such aggregate amount of Multi-Currency Commitments (and in the event that after such prepayment, the Outstanding Multi-Currency Amount is more than such aggregate amount of the Multi-Currency Commitments, the Company or the relevant Borrower shall provide cash cover for the difference by paying to the Multi-Currency Payment Agent immediately available funds in an amount equal to such difference, which funds shall be retained by the Multi-Currency Payment Agent in the Collateral Account as such collateral security for such Letter of Credit Liabilities). If any such prepayment occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Company or the relevant Borrower shall pay to the Multi-Currency Lenders such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 6.05.

(d)           If on any Reset Date, the Outstanding US$-Canadian Amount exceeds 105% of the aggregate amount of the US$-Canadian Commitments, then the Company, the Parent or the relevant Borrower shall, within three Business Days after notice thereof from the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, prepay (in Dollars or Canadian Dollars as selected by the Company or the Parent, as the case may be) US$-Canadian CDOR Loans, and/or C$ Loans or

53

Canadian Letters of Credit under the Canadian Commitments in an aggregate amount such that, after giving effect thereto, the Outstanding Canadian Amount shall be equal to or less than such aggregate amount of  US$-Canadian Commitments. If any such prepayment occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Company or the Parent, as the case may be, shall pay to the US$-Canadian Lenders such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 6.05.

(e)           If on any Reset Date, the Outstanding US$ Amount exceeds 105% of the aggregate amount of the US$ Commitments, then the Company, the Parent shall or the relevant Borrower shall, within three Business Days after notice thereof from the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, prepay (in Dollars, Pounds Sterling or euro as selected by the Company) US$ Loans in an aggregate amount such that, after giving effect thereto, the Outstanding US$ Amount shall be equal to or less than such aggregate amount of US$ Commitments (and in the event that after such prepayment, the Outstanding US$ Amount is more than such aggregate amount of the US$ Commitments, the Company or the Parent, as the case may be, shall provide cash cover for the difference by paying to the Multi-Currency Payment Agent immediately available funds in an amount equal to such difference, which funds shall be retained by the Multi-Currency Payment Agent in the Collateral Account as such collateral security for such Letter of Credit Liabilities). If any such prepayment occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Company or the Parent, as the case may be, shall pay to the US$ Lenders such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 6.05.

2.10.       Defaulting Lenders.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a)           fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.03;

(b)           the Revolving Commitments of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Majority Lenders have taken or may take any action under this Agreement (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 12.05), provided that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby other than to the extent provided in Section 12.05;

(c)           if any Swingline Loan or Letter of Credit Liability under any of the Revolving Commitments exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i)            all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s pro rata portion of Swingline Loans based on such Lender’s share of the relevant Revolving Commitments (“Swingline Exposure”) and such Defaulting Lender’s pro rata portion of Letter of Credit Liability based on such Lender’s share of the relevant Revolving Commitments (“L/C Exposure”) shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective shares thereof but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders’ Revolving Loans under such Revolving Commitments and their Swingline Exposures and Letter of Credit Liabilities thereunder plus such Defaulting Lender’s

54

Swingline Exposure and L/C Exposure under such Revolving Commitments does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders’ Revolving Commitments under such Revolving Commitments and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 7.02 are satisfied at such time;

(ii)           if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the relevant Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay any such remaining Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Bank only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to any such Defaulting Lender’s remaining L/C Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 10.01 for so long as such L/C Exposure is outstanding;

(iii)          if such Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(ii), the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.08(7) with respect to such L/C Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv)          if the L/C Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(i), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Sections 2.03 and 2.08(7) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages; or

(v)           if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(i) or (ii), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any other Lender under this Agreement, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.08(7) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until and to the extent that such L/C Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated;

(d)           so long as any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Revolving Lender’s then outstanding L/C Exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of the relevant non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the relevant Borrower in accordance with Section 2.10(c), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among such non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.10(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein); and

(e)           any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 10.01 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.19 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro

55

rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to cash collateralize the Issuing Banks’ fronting exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.10(c)(ii); fourth, as the Company may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Company, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) cash collateralize the Issuing Banks’ future fronting exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.10(c)(ii); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or Swingline Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Banks or Swingline Lenders against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by a Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Reimbursement Obligations in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 7.03 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Reimbursement Obligations owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Reimbursement Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility without giving effect to Section 2.10(c)(i). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.10(e) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

If (i) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to any Person as to which any Lender is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary shall occur following the Effective Date and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the relevant Borrower, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender each agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and L/C Exposure of the Revolving Lenders under the relevant Revolving Commitments shall be readjusted to reflect

56

the inclusion of such Lender’s relevant Revolving Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of such other Revolving Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its share of the relevant Revolving Commitments.

(f)            If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the relevant Borrower or Borrowers shall have the right, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, to require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse, all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) such Borrower or Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Bank) which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or such Borrower or Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts). A 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 relevant Borrower or Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

2.11.       Term Loan Purchases. So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company may from time to time purchase, in accordance with this Section 2.11, Term Loans from one or more Lenders on a non-pro rata basis pursuant to a Dutch auction or other process satisfactory to the Administrative Agent open to all applicable Lenders, on terms to be agreed between the Company and the Lenders participating in such Dutch auction; provided that (i) the Company may not use the proceeds of the Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans to fund such purchase, (ii) any gain from any such purchase is not added back to EBITDA or EBITDAR, (iii) in connection with any such purchase the Parent makes a customary representation that it has no undisclosed material non-public information (within the meaning of United States federal securities laws) with respect to the Parent and its Subsidiaries and the Loans, (iv) the procedures with respect to any such Dutch auction shall be approved by the Administrative Agent, and (v) any principal and accrued interest and unpaid interest on the Term Loans purchased by the Company shall be cancelled and such Term Loans shall no longer be outstanding for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Basic Documents.

2.12.       Extension Offers.

(d)           The Incremental Term Loans of each Incremental Term Lender shall mature in consecutive installments (which shall be no more frequent than quarterly) as specified in the Incremental Term Loan Activation Notice.

4.02.       Interest. Each of the Borrowers will pay to the Administrative Agent or, in the case of non-Dollar denominated Multi-Currency Loans, non-Dollar-denominated US$-Canadian Loans or non-Dollar- denominated US$ Loans, to the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, for the account of each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by such Lender to such Borrower for the period commencing on the date of such Loan to but excluding the date such Loan shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

1)            if such Loan is an ABR Loan, the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin;

66

Borrower, on any Reimbursement Obligation held by such Lender and on any other amount payable by the Company or any other Borrower hereunder to or for account of such Lender (but, if such amount is interest, only to the extent legally enforceable), that shall not be paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, by mandatory prepayment or otherwise), for the period from and including the due date thereof to but excluding the date the same is paid in full and (y) during any period when an Event of Default shall have occurred under Section 10.01(1) hereof and for so long as such Event of Default shall be continuing, on any principal of any Loan made by such Lender to the Company or any other Borrower.

Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable (i) if such Loan is an ABR Loan, on each Quarterly Date, (ii) if such Loan is a Eurocurrency Loan, a CDOR Loan or a BBSY Loan, on the last day of each Interest Period for such Loan (and, if such Interest Period exceeds three months’ duration, quarterly, commencing on the first quarterly anniversary of the first day of such Interest Period), and (iii) in any event, upon the payment, prepayment or conversion thereof, but only on the principal so paid or prepaid or converted; provided that interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand of the Administrative Agent (or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, in the case of non-Dollar denominated Multi-Currency Loans, non-Dollar-denominated US$-Canadian Loans or non-Dollar-denominated US$ Loans) or the Majority Lenders. Promptly after the determination of any interest rate provided for herein or any change therein, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders and each Borrower thereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.02, if at any time the rate of interest set forth above on any Loan of any Lender (the “Stated Rate” for such Loan) exceeds the maximum non-usurious interest rate permissible for such Lender to charge commercial borrowers under applicable law (the “Maximum Rate” for such Lender), the rate of interest charged on such Loan of such Lender hereunder shall be limited to the Maximum Rate for such Lender.

In the event the Stated Rate for any Loan of a Lender that has theretofore been subject to the preceding paragraph at any time is less than the Maximum Rate for such Lender, the principal amount of such Loan shall bear interest at the Maximum Rate for such Lender until the total amount of interest paid to such Lender or accrued on its Loans hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been paid to such Lender or accrued on such Lender’s Loans hereunder if the Stated Rate had at all times been in effect.

In the event, upon payment in full of all amounts payable hereunder, the total amount of interest paid to any Lender or accrued on such Lender’s Loans under the terms of this Agreement is less than the total amount of interest which would have been paid to such Lender or accrued on such Lender’s Loans if the Stated Rate had, at all times, been in effect, then the Company shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, pay to the Administrative Agent or, in the case of non-Dollar denominated Multi-Currency Loans, non-Dollar-denominated US$-Canadian Loans or non-Dollar- denominated US$ Loans, to the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, for the account of such Lender an amount equal to the difference between (a) the lesser of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on such Lender’s Loans if the Maximum Rate for such Lender had at all times been in effect or (ii) the amount of interest which would have accrued on such Lender’s Loans if the Stated Rate had at all times been in effect and (b) the amount of interest actually paid to such Lender or accrued on its Loans under this Agreement.  In

67

the event any Lender ever receives, collects or applies as interest any sum in excess of the Maximum Rate for such Lender, such excess amount shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of its Loans or to other amounts (other than interest) payable hereunder, and if no such principal is then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to the Company.

The Company shall, at the time of making each such payment, specify to the Multi-Currency Payment Agent the Loans or other amounts payable by the Company or any other Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be applied (and in the event that it fails to so specify, or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Multi-Currency Payment Agent may apply such payment for the benefit of the Lenders as it may elect in its sole discretion, but subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation, Section 5.02 hereof). Each such payment received by the Multi-Currency Payment Agent for the account of a Lender shall be paid promptly to such Lender, in immediately available funds, for the account of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office. If the due date of any such payment would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall be payable for any principal so extended for the period of such extension.

To such end all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored (including the payment of interest to the extent that the Lender obligated to return such funds is obligated to return interest).

(b)           Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any right of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of any Borrower.

(b)           Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers.  Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, each Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Multi-Currency Payment Agent for any Taxes (but, in the case of any Indemnified Taxes, only to the extent that the Borrowers have not already indemnified such parties for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent in connection with this Agreement 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.  The indemnity under this Section 5.08(d) shall be paid within 10 days after the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by them.  Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.

76

(e)           Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by a Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 5.08, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, as the case may be.

(III) any other form (including Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (together with any applicable underlying Internal Revenue Service forms)) prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Parent, the Company, any such Additional Borrower or the

78

Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made, or

(IV) if a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement would be subject to United States 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 Parent, the Company, any such Additional Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Parent, the Company, any such Additional 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 Parent, the Company, any such Additional Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for it to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not 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 Section 5.08(f)(ii)(IV), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Effective Date.

(g)           FATCA Grandfathering.  For purposes of determining withholding taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Closing Date of this Agreement, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) the Existing Credit Agreement (together with any loans or other extensions of credit pursuant thereto) as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i) and related temporary regulations.

(h)           Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Bank determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Borrower or with respect to which any Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to such Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that each Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank in the event the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent or the

79

Multi-Currency Payment Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrowers or any other Person.  In the event of any inconsistency between this Section 5.08 and Section 3.9 of Annex A in respect of amounts owing under Annex A, Section 3.9 of Annex A shall supersede this Section 5.08.

(i)            Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 5.08 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations under this Agreement.

5.09.       Judgment Currency.  If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from a Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified 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 specified currency with other such currency at the Administrative Agent’s New York Office on the Business Day that is on or immediately following the day on which final judgment is given.  The obligations of the Borrowers in respect of any sum due to any Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Multi-Currency Payment Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Multi-Currency Payment Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, such Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Multi-Currency Payment Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency.  If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Multi-Currency Payment Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, each of the Borrowers agrees, to the fullest extent it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Multi-Currency Payment Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to any Lender, the Administrative Agent the Multi-Currency Payment Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, or the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, or the Canadian Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the Borrowers.

Section 6               Yield Protection and Illegality.

6.01.       Additional Costs.

(a)           The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender from time to time such amounts as such Lender may determine to be necessary to compensate it for any costs incurred by such Lender which such Lender determines are attributable to its making, maintaining, converting or continuing of any Loans hereunder to the Company or any

80

other Borrower or its obligation to make any of such Loans hereunder to the Company or any other Borrower, or any reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender in respect of any of such Loans or such obligation (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), in each case resulting from any Regulatory Change which:

(i)            subjects the Lender or Issuing Bank to Taxes on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, or changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender or Issuing Bank under this Agreement in respect of any of such Loans (other than Indemnified Taxes covered by Section 5.08 and Excluded Taxes); or

(ii)           imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, such Lender (including any of such Loans or any deposits referred to in the definition of “Eurocurrency Base Rate” in Section 1.01 hereof) (except any reserve requirement reflected in the definition of Eurocurrency Rate); or

(iii)          imposes any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement (or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities).

Each Lender (such term to include the Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 6.01(a), solely in the case of and with respect to (i) above) will notify the Company through the Administrative Agent of any event occurring after the Effective Date of this Agreement which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 6.01(a) (an “Additional Cost Event”) as promptly as practicable after it obtains knowledge thereof and determines to request such compensation, provided, that the Company shall not be obligated to compensate such Lender for any such Additional Costs incurred more than 180 days prior to the time the Lender first notifies the Company of such Additional Cost Event (or such longer period if such Additional Cost Event is given retroactive effect).  Each Lender will furnish the Company with a statement setting forth the calculations and the basis therefor, in each case in reasonable detail, and amount of each request by such Lender for compensation under this Section 6.01(a). If any Lender requests compensation from the Company under this Section 6.01(a), the Company may, by notice to such Lender through the Administrative Agent, suspend the obligation of such Lender to make additional Loans of the Type for which compensation is requested to the Company until the Regulatory Change giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 6.04 hereof shall be applicable).

(b)           Without limiting the effect of the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.01, in the event that, by reason of any Regulatory Change, any Lender either (i) incurs Additional Costs based on or measured by the excess above a specified level of the amount of a category of deposits or other liabilities of such Lender which includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on Eurocurrency Loans, CDOR Loans or BBSY Loans, as the case may be, is determined as provided in this Agreement or a category of extensions of credit or other assets of such Lender which includes Eurocurrency Loans, CDOR Loans or BBSY Loans, as the case may be, or (ii) becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets which it may hold, then, if such Lender so elects by notice to the Company (with a copy to the

81

Administrative Agent), the obligation of such Lender to make Eurocurrency Loans, CDOR Loans or BBSY Loans, as the case may be, hereunder shall be suspended until the date such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 6.04 hereof shall be applicable).

(c)           Determinations and allocations by any Lender for purposes of this Section 6.01 of the effect of any Regulatory Change on its costs of maintaining its obligations to make Loans or of making or maintaining Loans or on amounts receivable by it in respect of Loans, and of the additional amounts required to compensate such Lender in respect of any Additional Costs, shall be conclusive absent manifest error, provided that such determinations and allocations are made on a reasonable basis.

(d)           If any Lender demands compensation under this Section, the Company may, at any time upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior notice to such Lender through the Administrative Agent, convert in full the then outstanding Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars of such Lender (in which case the Company shall be obligated, if such conversion is made on a day that is not the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such affected Eurocurrency Loan, to reimburse such Lender, in accordance with Section 6.05, for any resulting loss or expense incurred by it) to an ABR Loan.

6.02.       Limitation on Types of Loans.  If prior to the first day of any Interest Period:

(i)            the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means (including, without limitation, by means of an Interpolated Rate), do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Base Rate, the Eurocurrency Rate, the CDOR Rate or the BBSY Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or

(ii)           the Majority Lenders determine (which determination shall be conclusive) and notify the Administrative Agent that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of “Eurocurrency Base Rate”, “CDOR Rate” or “BBSY Rate” in Section 1.01 upon the basis of which the rates of interest for such Loans are to be determined do not accurately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans for Interest Periods therefor;

then the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company and each applicable Lender thereof, and so long as such condition remains in effect, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to make Eurocurrency Loans, CDOR Loans or BBSY Loans, as the case may be, or to convert ABR Loans into Eurocurrency Loans and the Company shall, on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for the outstanding Eurocurrency Loans, CDOR Loans or BBSY Loans, as the case may be, either prepay such Loans or convert such Loans (in the case of Dollar-denominated Eurocurrency Loans) into ABR Loans in accordance with Section 3.02 hereof.

6.03.       Illegality.  If, in any applicable jurisdiction, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to (i) perform its obligations hereunder or under any other Base Document

82

with respect to Eurocurrency Loans, CDOR Loans or BBSY Loans, (ii) fund or maintain its participation in any Eurocurrency Loan, CDOR Loan or BBSY Loan or (iii) issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any such Loan, such Person shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and upon the Administrative Agent notifying the Parent, and until such notice by such Person is revoked, any obligation of such Person to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any such Loan shall be suspended, and to the extent required by applicable law, cancelled.

6.04.       Substitute ABR Loans. If the obligation of any Lender to make Eurocurrency Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 6.01, 6.02 or 6.03 hereof, all Loans in Dollars which would otherwise be made by such Lender as Eurocurrency Loans shall be made instead as ABR Loans (and, if an event referred to in Section 6.01(b)or 6.03 hereof has occurred and such Lender so requests by notice to the Company with a copy to the Administrative Agent, each Dollar-denominated Eurocurrency Loan of such Lender then outstanding shall be automatically converted into an ABR Loan on the date specified by such Lender in such notice) and, to the extent that Eurocurrency Loans are so made as (or converted into) ABR Loans, all payments of principal which would otherwise be applied to such Eurocurrency Loans shall be applied instead to such ABR Loans.

6.05.       Compensation. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, upon the request of such Lender through the Administrative Agent, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Lender) to compensate it for any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

1)            any payment, prepayment or conversion (including, without limitation, an automatic conversion pursuant to Section 10.02 hereof) of a Eurocurrency Loan, CDOR Loan or BBSY Rate Loan made by such Lender to the Company or any other Borrower on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period for such Loan;

2)            any failure by the Company or any other Borrower to borrow a Eurocurrency Loan, a CDOR Loan or a BBSY Loan to be made by such Lender to the Company or such other Borrower on the date for such borrowing specified in the relevant notice of borrowing under Section 5.05 hereof;

3)            any failure by the Company or any other Borrower to prepay a Eurocurrency Loan or, a CDOR Loan or a BBSY Loan on the date specified in a notice of prepayment; or

4)            any substitution of a Lender under Section 6.07 hereof on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period for each Loan of such Lender;

but excluding, in any event, loss of margin for the period after any such payment, prepayment or conversion or failure to borrow; provided that such Lender shall have delivered to the Company a certificate as to the amount of such loss and expense along with the calculation and the basis therefor, in each case in reasonable detail.

6.06.       Capital Adequacy. If any Lender shall determine that any Regulatory Change regarding capital adequacy or liquidity after the Effective Date, or any change therein after the Effective Date, or any change after

83

the Effective Date in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Lender or any Person controlling such Lender (a “Lender Parent”) as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender (or its Lender Parent) could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Company shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction. A statement of any Lender claiming compensation under this Section and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided that the determination thereof is made on a reasonable basis; and provided further that the Company shall not be obligated to compensate such Lender for any such reduction occurring more than 180 days prior to the time such Lender first notifies the Company of such Regulatory Change. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

6.07.       Mitigation Obligations; Substitution of Lender.

(a)           If any Lender requests compensation under Section 6.01, or requires the Company or any other Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.08, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Company) 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 judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 6.01 or 5.08, 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 Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b)           If (i) the obligation of any Lender to make Eurocurrency Loans, CDOR Loans or BBSY Loans or the right of the Company to convert ABR Loans of any Lender to Eurocurrency Loans has been suspended pursuant to Section 6.03, (ii) any Lender has demanded compensation under Section 6.01, 6.06 or 6.08, or (iii) any Lender requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 5.08, the Company shall have the right, with the assistance of the Administrative Agent, to seek a substitute bank or banks (which may be one or more of the Lenders) satisfactory to Company and the Administrative Agent to assume the Revolving Commitments and Loans of such Lender. Any such Lender shall be obligated to sell Loans and Revolving Commitments for cash without recourse to such substitute bank or banks and to execute and deliver an appropriately completed assignment and assumption agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Company and any other document or perform any act reasonably necessary to effect the assumption of the rights and obligations of such substitute bank or banks.

84

6.08.       Additional Costs in Respect of Letters of Credit. Without limiting the obligations of the Borrowers under Section 6.01 hereof (but without duplication) or Section 3.8 of Annex A hereto, if as a result of any Regulatory Change or any risk-based capital guideline or other requirement heretofore or hereafter issued by any government or governmental or supervisory authority, there shall be imposed, modified or deemed applicable any Tax, reserve, special deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement against or with respect to or measured by reference to Letters of Credit issued or to be issued hereunder and the result shall be to increase the cost to any Lender or Lenders of issuing (or purchasing participations in) or maintaining its obligation hereunder to issue (or purchase participations in) any Letter of Credit hereunder or reduce any amount receivable by any Lender hereunder in respect of any Letter of Credit (which increases in cost, or reductions in amount receivable, shall be the result of such Lender’s or Lenders’ reasonable allocation of the aggregate of such increases or reductions resulting from such event), then, upon demand by such Lender or Lenders (through the Administrative Agent), the relevant Borrower shall pay immediately to the Administrative Agent for account of such Lender or Lenders, from time to time as specified by such Lender or Lenders (through the Administrative Agent), such additional amounts as shall be sufficient to compensate such Lender or Lenders (through the Administrative Agent) for such increased costs or reductions in amount. A statement as to such increased costs or reductions in amount incurred by any such Lender or Lenders, showing calculations and the basis therefor in reasonable detail, submitted by such Lender or Lenders to the relevant Borrower, shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error as to the amount thereof.

8.02.       Information.

(a)           (i)  The Company has heretofore furnished to each of the Lenders the consolidated balance sheets of the Parent and its Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2012, December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2014 and the related consolidated statements of income, retained

87

earnings and cash flows of the Parent and its Subsidiaries, respectively, for the fiscal years ended on said dates, with the opinion thereon of the independent public accountants referred to therein.  All such financial statements are complete and correct and fairly present the consolidated financial condition of the Parent and its Subsidiaries as at said dates and the consolidated results of their operations for the fiscal years ended on said dates, all in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and practices applied on a consistent basis.

(ii)  The Company has heretofore furnished to each of the Lenders the consolidated balance sheet of the Parent and its Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2015 and the related consolidated statements of income, retained earnings and cash flows of the Parent and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal quarter ended on said date.  All such financial statements are complete and correct and fairly present the consolidated financial condition of the Parent and its Subsidiaries as at said date and the consolidated results of their operations for the fiscal quarter ended on said date, all in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and practices applied on a consistent basis (except for the absence of footnotes and subject to normal year-end audit adjustments).

(b)           The Company has disclosed to the Lenders in writing any and all facts (other than general economic conditions) which materially and adversely affect or may materially and adversely affect (to the extent it can reasonably foresee) the business, assets, property or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Parent and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, or the ability of any Borrower or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors to perform its obligations under each Basic Document to which it is a party. The information, reports, financial statements, exhibits and schedules furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Obligors to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation, preparation or delivery of this Agreement and the other Basic Documents or included herein or therein or delivered pursuant hereto or thereto, when taken as a whole do not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, that with respect to any such information, report, financial statement, exhibit or schedule to the extent that it was based upon or constitutes a forecast or projection, the Company represents only that it acted in good faith and utilized reasonable assumptions and due care in the preparation of such information, report, financial statement, exhibit or schedule. All written information furnished after the date hereof by the Parent and its Subsidiaries to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and required in connection with this Agreement and the other Basic Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will be true, complete and accurate in every material respect, or (in the case of projections) based on reasonable estimates, on the date as of which such information is stated or certified.

(c)           Since December 31, 2014, there has been no material adverse change in the business, assets, property, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Parent and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole or, to the knowledge of the Company, in the ability of any of the  Borrowers or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors to perform its obligations under each Basic Document to which it is a party.

8.03.       Litigation. There are no legal or arbitral proceedings or any proceedings by or before any Governmental Authority or agency, now pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries in which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse decision which could have a Material Adverse Effect or, to the

THEREUPON: the Administrative Agent may (and, if directed by the Majority Lenders, shall) (a) declare the Commitments terminated (whereupon the Commitments shall be terminated) and/or (b) declare the principal amount then outstanding of and the accrued interest on the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations, and commitment fees and all other amounts payable hereunder to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon such amounts shall be and become immediately due and payable, without notice (including, without limitation, notice of intent to accelerate), presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each of the Borrowers; provided that in the case of the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to any Borrower referred to in clause (6) or (7) of this Section 10.01, the Commitments shall be automatically terminated and the principal amount then outstanding of and the accrued interest on the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations, and commitment fees and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be and become automatically and immediately due and payable, without notice (including, without limitation, notice of intent to accelerate), presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each of the Borrowers.

In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default (if the Administrative Agent has declared the principal amount then outstanding of, and accrued interest on, the Loans and all other amounts payable by the Borrowers to be due and payable), the Company agrees that it shall, if requested by the Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders through the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of any Event of Default referred to in clause (6) or (7) of this Section 10.01 with respect to any Borrower, forthwith, without any demand or the taking of any other action by the Administrative Agent or such Lenders) provide cover for the Letter of Credit Liabilities by paying to the Administrative Agent immediately available funds in an amount equal to the then aggregate undrawn stated amount of all Letters of Credit, which funds shall be held by the Administrative Agent in the Collateral Account as collateral security in the first instance for the Letter of Credit Liabilities.

10.02.     Ratable Treatment of Lenders.  In the event that the Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations shall be declared or become immediately due and payable on any date (the “Acceleration Date”) pursuant to Section 10.01 hereof, each of the Borrowers and the Revolving Lenders agree that the outstanding Revolving Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and accrued but unpaid interest thereon not denominated in Dollars shall be automatically converted to Dollars on the Acceleration Date at the then applicable Exchange Rate and any Reimbursement Obligation not denominated in Dollars thereafter arising shall be automatically converted to Dollars on the date of the drawing giving rise thereto under the relevant Letter of Credit at the then applicable Exchange Rate.  The Revolving Lenders hereby irrevocably agree for the benefit of each other (and not for the benefit of any of the Borrowers or the other Obligors) that,

110

effective as of the Acceleration Date, each Revolving Lender shall acquire participations in each then outstanding Revolving Loan and Letter of Credit Liability in proportion to the aggregate outstanding amount of Revolving Loans of such Revolving Lender plus such Revolving Lender’s L/C Exposure and Swingline Exposure, to the aggregate outstanding amount of Revolving Loans of all the Revolving Lenders plus all Revolving Lenders’ L/C Exposure and Swingline Exposure, in each case determined immediately prior to the Acceleration Date (such Revolving Lender’s “Proportion”).  On or promptly following the Acceleration Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine for each Revolving Lender the difference between (a) such Revolving Lender’s Proportion of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Revolving Loans and Reimbursement Obligations on the Acceleration Date after giving effect to the automatic conversion to Dollars and (b) the aggregate principal amount of such Revolving Lender’s actual outstanding Revolving Loans and Reimbursement Obligations on the Acceleration Date after giving effect to the automatic conversions to Dollars.  Each Revolving Lender whose difference is positive shall make a payment which is equal to such difference to the Administrative Agent in Dollars in immediately available funds on a date set by the Administrative Agent promptly following the Acceleration Date.  The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Revolving Lenders whose differences are negative, with such distribution to be ratable based upon the respective amounts of such negative differences.  On each subsequent date on which a Reimbursement Obligation arises by virtue of a draw on a Letter of Credit, each Revolving Lender shall, promptly after being notified thereof, make a payment to the Issuing Bank equal to its Proportion of such Reimbursement Obligation.  To the extent that any Revolving Lender shall fail to pay any amount required to be paid pursuant to this Section 10.02 on the due date therefor, such Revolving Lender shall pay interest to the Administrative Agent for ratable distribution to the Revolving Lenders or Issuing Bank entitled thereto on such amount from and including such due date to but excluding the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate, provided that if such Revolving Lender shall fail to make such payment within three Business Days of such due date, then, retroactively to the due date, such Revolving Lender shall be obligated to pay interest on such amount at the Alternate Base Rate.

Section 11             The Administrative Agent; Other Agents.

11.01.     Appointment Powers and Immunities.  Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as its agent hereunder and under the other Basic Documents with such powers as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent (which term as used in this Section 11 shall include reference to its affiliates and its own and its affiliates’ officers, directors, employees and agents): (a) shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Basic Documents, and shall not by reason of this Agreement or any other Basic Document be a trustee for any Lender; (b) shall not be responsible to the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or any other Basic Document, or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, this Agreement or any other Basic Document, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Basic Document or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or for any failure by any Borrower or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors or any other Person to perform any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder; (c) shall not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings

111

hereunder or under any other Basic Document except to the extent requested by the Majority Lenders; and (d) shall not be responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Basic Document or any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

11.02.     Reliance by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telex, telegram or cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or any other Basic Document, the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder and thereunder in accordance with instructions signed by the Majority Lenders and such instructions of the Majority Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders.

11.03.     Defaults.  The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of the occurrence of a Default (other than a Default of the type specified in Section 10.01(1)) unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or any Borrower specifying such Default and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 11.07 hereof) take such action with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the Majority Lenders, provided that, unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Lenders a copy of any written declaration made pursuant to the second to last paragraph of Section 10.01 hereof.

11.04.     Rights as a Lender.  With respect to its Commitments and the Loans made by it, the Administrative Agent in its capacity as a Lender hereunder shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The Administrative Agent in its individual capacity may (without having to account therefor to any Lender) accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with the Borrowers and the Subsidiary Guarantors (and their respective Affiliates) as if it were not acting as the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity may accept fees and other consideration from each of the Borrowers (in addition to the agency fees and arrangement fees heretofore agreed to between the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent) for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.

112

11.05.     Indemnification.  The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed under Section 12.03 or 12.04 hereof, but without limiting the obligations of the Company and the Parent under said Sections 12.03 and 12.04), ratably in accordance with the principal amount of their respective Loans and Reimbursement Obligations outstanding, or if no Loans or Reimbursement Obligations are outstanding, ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments, for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Basic Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including, without limitation, the costs and expenses which the Company or the Parent is obligated to pay under Sections 12.03 and 12.04 hereof but excluding, unless a Default has occurred and is continuing, normal administrative costs and expenses incident to the performance of its agency duties hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents, provided, that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified.

11.06.     Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender agrees that it has, independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of each of the Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors and decision to enter into this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative 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 analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or any of the other Basic Documents. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrowers and the Subsidiary Guarantors of this Agreement or any of the other Basic Documents or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the properties or books of any of the Borrowers or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder or the other Basic Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of any of the Borrowers or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors (or any of their affiliates) which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent.

11.07.     Failure to Act.  Except for action expressly required of the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Basic Documents, the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder and thereunder unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction by the Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 11.05 hereof against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

11.08.     Resignation or Removal of Administrative Agent.  Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided below, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Lenders and the Company and the Administrative Agent may be removed at any time that it is a Defaulting Lender

113

by the Majority Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent reasonably acceptable to the Company (provided that the Company’s consent shall not be required during the occurrence or continuance of an Event of Default). Upon any such resignation or removal, the Administrative Agent that resigned or was removed shall, to the extent that its annual agency fee was paid in advance, pay to the Company an amount equal to such fee multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which shall be the number of days remaining on the date of such resignation or removal until the next anniversary of the Closing Date, and the denominator of which shall be 365. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Majority Lenders’ removal of the Administrative Agent that is a Defaulting Lender (the “Notice Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent reasonably acceptable to the Company. Any successor Administrative Agent shall be (i) a Lender or (ii) if no Lender has accepted such appointment within 30 days after the Notice Date, a bank which has an office in New York, New York with a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, 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 hereunder. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 11 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent.

11.09.     Lead Arrangers, Joint Bookrunners, Documentation Agents and Co-Syndication Agents. None of the Lead Arrangers, Joint Bookrunners, Co-Documentation Agents or Co-Syndication Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities under the Basic Documents in their respective capacities as such.

11.10.     Collateral Sub-Agents.  Each Lender by its execution and delivery of this Agreement agrees, as contemplated by the Security Documents, that, in the event it shall hold any Liquid Investments referred to therein, such Liquid Investments shall be held in the name and under the control of such Lender and such Lender shall hold such Liquid Investments as a collateral sub-agent for the Administrative Agent thereunder.

11.11.     Multi-Currency Payment Agent and Canadian Administrative Agent.  The Multi-Currency Payment Agent referred to herein and the Canadian Administrative Agent referred to in Annex A hereto shall be deemed to be sub-agents of the Administrative Agent for all purposes of this Agreement and entitled to the benefits of this Section 11.

11.12.     Additional Ministerial Powers of the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders to (a) execute any document creating any Lien and to release any Lien covering any asset of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries that is the subject of a disposition, sale or assignment which is permitted under this Agreement and (b) take any other action to release Guaranties and Liens as provided in Section 12.17.

114

Section 12             Miscellaneous.

12.01.     Waiver.  No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or privilege under any Basic Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege thereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The remedies provided in the Basic Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

12.02.     Notices.  All notices and other communications provided for herein (including, without limitation, any modifications of, or waivers or consents under, this Agreement) shall be given or made by telecopy or other writing and telecopied, mailed or delivered to the intended recipient (a) in the case of each of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Multi-Currency Payment Agent or the Canadian Administrative Agent at the “Address for Notices” specified below its name on the signature pages hereof; (b) in the case of any Lender, at its address (or telecopy number) set forth in its Administrative Questionnaire; or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a notice to the each of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent given in accordance with this Section 12.02. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all such communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when transmitted by telecopier (and receipt is electronically confirmed), personally delivered or, in the case of a mailed notice, upon receipt, in each case given or addressed as aforesaid.  In addition, such notices and other communications may be delivered or furnished by electric communications pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent.

12.03.     Expenses Etc.  The Company agrees to pay or reimburse, without duplication of any amounts otherwise already so paid or reimbursed by the Company elsewhere under this Agreement, each of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers for paying: (a) the reasonable fees and expenses of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, special counsel to the Administrative Agent, in connection with (i) the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement (including the Exhibits hereto) and the Security Documents and the making of the Loans hereunder and (ii) any modification, supplement or waiver of any of the terms of this Agreement or any other Basic Document (including, without limitation, the amendment and restatement evidenced hereby); (b) all reasonable costs and expenses of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers (including reasonable counsels’ fees) in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any other Basic Document or any bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceedings); (c) all mortgage, intangible, transfer, stamp, documentary or other similar taxes, assessments or charges levied by any governmental or revenue authority in respect of this Agreement or any other Basic Document or any other document referred to herein or therein; and (d) all costs, expenses, taxes, assessments and other charges incurred in connection with any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest contemplated by this Agreement, any Security Document or any document referred to herein or therein.

12.04.     Indemnification.  The Parent shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, the other agents identified on the cover page of this Agreement, the Lenders and each affiliate thereof and their respective directors, officers, employees, advisors and agents (each, an “Indemnitee”) from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities, claims or damages to which

115

any of them may become subject, insofar as such losses, liabilities, claims or damages arise out of, relate to or result from any (i) Loan by any Lender hereunder or (ii) breach by any Borrower of this Agreement or any other Basic Document or (iii) any Environmental Liabilities (whether known or unknown) or (iv) any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (including any threatened investigation or proceeding)  as well as any amendment or waiver relating to the foregoing or to any Basic Document, and the Company shall reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Multi-Currency Payment Agent and each Lender, and each affiliate and their respective directors, officers, employees, advisors and agents, upon demand for any reasonable expenses (including legal fees) incurred in connection with any such investigation or proceeding; but excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the  gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person to be indemnified; provided, however, that in no event will any Indemnitee have any liability for any indirect, consequential, special or punitive damages in connection with this Agreement, any Basic Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein.

12.05.     Amendments. Etc.  No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, nor any consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be agreed or consented to by the Majority Lenders and the Company, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that no such change, waiver, discharge or termination shall, without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (i) extend the Commitment Termination Date (it being understood that any “extension” pursuant to Section 2.01(f) and any waiver of any prepayment of, or the method of application of any prepayment to the amortization of, Loans shall not constitute any such extension), or extend the stated maturity of any Letter of Credit beyond the Commitment Termination Date, or extend the scheduled date of payment of principal of any Term Loan, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest (other than as a result of waiving the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or fees (it being agreed that any amendment or modification of defined terms used in the financial covenants in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in interest or fees for purposes of this clause (i)), or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase any Commitment of any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Commitments shall not constitute a change in the terms of a Commitment of a Lender), (ii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 12.05, (iii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 12.16, (iv) amend or modify the definition of “Multi-Currency”, (v) reduce the percentage specified in, or (except to give effect to any additional facilities hereunder) otherwise modify, the definition of Majority Lenders, (vi) release all or substantially all of the security for the obligations of the Company or any other Borrower under this Agreement, (vii) change the order of any mandatory prepayment provided for in Section 3.02(b) or (c) hereof without the consent of Term Lenders having more than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans, or (viii) release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty; provided that a Defaulting Lender’s vote shall not be required except that (A) such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment may not be increased or extended without its consent and (B) the principal amount of, or interest or fees payable on, Loans or Letter of Credit Liabilities owed to a Defaulting Lender may not be reduced or excused or the scheduled date of payment may not be postponed as to such Defaulting Lender without such Defaulting Lender’s consent. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 12.05 to the

116

contrary, no amendment, waiver or consent shall be made (x) with respect to Section 11 without the consent of the Administrative Agent, (y) with respect to Annex A hereto without the consent of the Canadian Borrowers or (z) with respect to Section 2.10 hereto without the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank.

Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Company, may amend, modify or supplement any Basic Document without the consent of any Lender or the Majority Lenders (x) in order to correct, amend or cure any ambiguity, inconsistency or defect or correct any typographical error or other manifest error in any Basic Document or (y) to implement the provisions of Sections 2.01(b), (c) and (e) and 2.12.

12.06.     Successors and Assigns.

(a)           This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns except that the Borrowers may not assign their rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders.

(b)           Each Lender may assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (i) with respect to the Term Loans (x) to any other Lender, to any affiliate of a Lender or to any entity (an “Approved Fund”) (whether a corporation, partnership, trust or otherwise) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and is administered or managed by a Lender, an affiliate of such Lender or an entity or an affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender, or (y) with the consent of the Administrative Agent and of the Company (provided that the consent of the Company shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, and provided further that the Company shall be deemed to have consented to any assignment to the extent that it has not indicated otherwise to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days of written notice thereof), to any bank or financial institution, and (ii) with respect to the Revolving Commitments, (x) with the consent of the Administrative Agent and of the Issuing Bank and, if applicable, of the Canadian Issuing Bank, to any other Lender, to any affiliate of a Lender or to an Approved Fund, or (y) with the consent of the Administrative Agent, of the Issuing Bank and, if applicable, of the Canadian Issuing Bank, and of the Company (provided, that the consent of the Company to any assignment shall not be required if an Event of Default hereunder shall have occurred and be continuing, and provided further that the Company shall be deemed to have consented to any assignment to the extent that it has not indicated otherwise to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days of written notice thereof), to any bank or financial institution, which consents (other than the consent of the Administrative Agent to the assignment of any Revolving Commitment) shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (it being understood that, in the case of the Canadian Issuing Bank, it shall not be unreasonable to withhold consent in the case of any proposed assignment to any entity or entities rated below BBB+ by Standard & Poor’s, a Division of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇ Companies, Inc., or other comparable rating by another comparable rating agency), provided that any such partial assignment shall not, unless the Company and the Administrative Agent otherwise agree (provided that the consent of the Company shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, and provided further that the Company shall be deemed to have consented to any assignment to the extent that it has not indicated otherwise to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days of written notice thereof), be less than $5,000,000 (or, in the case of Term Loans,

117

$1,000,000), or if the remainder of the Lender’s Commitment or Term Loans is less than $5,000,000 or $1,000,000, as applicable, such lesser amount. Upon execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of an Assignment and Assumption substantially in the form of Exhibit N hereto by the assignor and the assignee together with payment by such assignee to the Administrative Agent of a processing fee of $3,500, such assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment (unless otherwise provided therein), the same rights and benefits as it would have if it were a Lender hereunder and the assignor shall be, to the extent of such assignment (unless otherwise provided therein), released from its obligations under this Agreement.

(c)           Each Lender may (without the consent of any other party to this Agreement) sell participations in all or any part of any Loan or Loans or any Commitment or Commitments made by it to another bank or other entity, in which event the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement (except as provided in the next succeeding sentence hereof) (the participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the participant relating thereto, which agreement shall not give the participant the right to consent to any modification, amendment or waiver other than one described in clause (i), (ii), (vi) or (viii) of Section 12.05 hereof); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  Each Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.08, 6.01, 6.05, 6.06 and 6.08 of this Agreement and Sections 3.8 and 3.9 of Annex A hereto (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 5.08(f) of this Agreement (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 5.08(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 6.07 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 5.08, 6.01, 6.06 and 6.08 of this Agreement and Sections 3.8 and 3.9 of Annex A hereto, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Regulatory Change that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation.  Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Company’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Company to effectuate the provisions of Section 6.07(b) with respect to any participant.  To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.19 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 5.07 as though it were a Lender.   Each Lender may furnish any information concerning the Parent and its Subsidiaries in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants) which have agreed in writing to be bound by the provisions of Section 12.07 hereof. The Administrative Agent and the Company may, for all purposes of this Agreement, treat any Lender as the holder of any Note or C$ Note drawn to its order (and owner of the Loans evidenced thereby) until written notice of assignment, participation or other transfer shall have been received by them from such Lender.  No assignment may be made or participation sold to (x) the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries except as allowed by Section 2.11 or (y) a natural Person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned or operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person).

118

(d)           In addition to the assignments and participations permitted in the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.06, any Lender may (without notice to any of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any other Lender and without payment of any fee) assign and pledge all or any portion of its Loans and its Notes (i) to secure obligations of such Lender, including to any Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank, and (ii) with respect to any Lender which is a fund, to its trustee or creditors in support of its obligations to its trustee or creditors, and such Loans and Notes shall be fully transferable as provided therein. No such assignment pursuant to the preceding sentence shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.

(e)           The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.  In addition, each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the applicable Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under this Agreement) 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, and such Lender, the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

12.07.     Confidentiality.  Each Lender agrees to exercise all reasonable efforts to keep any information delivered or made available by or on behalf of the Parent to it which has not been publicly disclosed confidential from anyone other than persons employed or retained by such Lender who are or are expected to become engaged in evaluating, approving, structuring or administering the Loans; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Lender from disclosing such information (i) to any other Lender, (ii) to the officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys and accountants of such Lender or its affiliates who have a need to know such information in accordance with customary banking practices and who receive such information having been made aware of the restrictions set forth in this Section, (iii) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (iv) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority having jurisdiction over such Lender, (v) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation or proceeding to which the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Borrower, any

119

Subsidiary Guarantor or their respective affiliates may be a party, (vi) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, (vii) to such Lender’s legal counsel and independent auditors, (viii) to any actual or proposed participant or assignee of all or part of its rights hereunder which has agreed in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Section 12.07, and (ix) to the extent such information becomes publicly available other than by reason of disclosure by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or their respective affiliates in breach of this Agreement; provided, that in the case of information received from or on behalf of the Parent after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 12.07 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.  For the avoidance of doubt, information relating to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending interest shall be deemed not to be confidential.

12.08.     Survival.  The obligations of the Borrowers under Sections 6.01, 6.05, 6.06, 6.08, 12.03 and 12.04 hereof and of the Canadian Borrowers under such Sections and Section 3.8 of Annex A hereto and the obligations of the Lenders under Section 11.05 shall survive the repayment of the Loans and the termination of the Commitments.

12.09.     Captions. Captions and section headings appearing herein are included solely for convenience of reference and are not intended to affect the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

12.10.     Counterparts; Integration.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and any of the parties hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart. This Agreement, together with the schedules, exhibits and Annex hereto, constitutes the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings, oral and written, relating to the subject matter hereof.

12.11.     GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH OF THE OBLIGORS HEREBY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND OF ANY NEW YORK STATE COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK CITY IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN FOR PURPOSES OF ALL LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER BASIC DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH OF THE OBLIGORS IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. EACH OF THE OBLIGORS HEREBY AGREES THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS RETAIN THE RIGHT TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY OBLIGOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER

120

JURISDICTION IN CONNECTION WITH THE EXERCISE OF ANY RIGHTS UNDER ANY BASIC DOCUMENT OR THE ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT.  EACH OF THE BORROWERS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER BASIC DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

(b) To the extent any Obligor has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from jurisdiction of any court or from set-off or any legal process (whether service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) with respect to itself or any of its property, to the maximum extent permitted by law, such Obligor hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Basic Documents.

12.12.     Borrowers’ Agent.  Each of the Borrowers, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, irrevocably appoints the Company as its agent and attorney-in-fact for all purposes of this Agreement, irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers the Company, as its designee and agent, for service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents which may be served in any such action or proceeding and hereby ratifies and confirms, and agrees to be bound by, all actions taken by the Company on its behalf pursuant to the foregoing authorization.  The Company irrevocably accepts such appointment.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all notices from and to any of the Borrowers hereunder shall be given by or to the Company on its behalf.  Each Lender, the Parent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Multi-Currency Payment Agent and the Administrative Agent may conclusively rely on the authority of the Company to act on behalf of each of the Borrowers.

12.13.     Designation of Indebtedness.  The indebtedness incurred hereunder constitutes “Senior Debt” or “Senior Indebtedness”, as the case may be (and, accordingly, “Designated Senior Debt” or “Designated Senior Indebtedness”, as the case may be) under the Senior Subordinated Debt Indentures and the other Senior Subordinated Debt Documents.

12.14.     Acknowledgements.  Each of the Borrowers hereby acknowledges that (i) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to such Obligor arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Basic Documents, and the relationship between Administrative Agent and Lenders, on one hand, and the Obligors, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor and (ii) the Administrative Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Obligors and their stockholders and/or Affiliates.

12.15.     USA PATRIOT Act.

1)            Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) hereby notifies the Company that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of such Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Borrower in

121

accordance with the Act.

2)            Canadian Anti-Money Laundering Legislation.

If the Administrative Agent has ascertained the identity of any Obligor or any authorized signatories of any Obligor for the purposes of the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (Canada) and other anti-terrorism laws and “know your client” policies, regulations, laws or rules applicable in Canada (the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (Canada) and such other anti-terrorism laws, applicable policies, regulations, laws or rules in Canada, collectively, including any guidelines or orders thereunder, “AML Legislation”), then the Administrative Agent:

(a)           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 the Administrative Agent within the meaning of the applicable AML Legislation; and

(b)           shall provide to the Lenders, 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 Lender agrees that the Administrative Agent has no obligation to ascertain the identity of the Obligors or any authorized signatories of the Obligors on behalf of any Lender, or to confirm the completeness or accuracy of any information it obtains from any Obligor or any such authorized signatory in doing so.

12.16.     Additional Borrowers.  The Company may designate any Subsidiary of the Parent as a Borrower under the Revolving Commitments; provided that (a) the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lenders have agreed that such Lenders may make loans and other extensions of credit to such Subsidiary and in the applicable currency or currencies in such Subsidiary’s jurisdiction in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, without the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender being required or qualified to do business in such jurisdiction and without being subject to any unreimbursed or unindemnified Tax or other expense and (b) the Company shall have delivered to each Lender which requests the same information with respect to such Subsidiary in accordance with Section 12.15.  Upon the receipt by the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit O-1 executed by such Subsidiary and the Company, such Subsidiary shall be a Borrower and a party to this Agreement.  A Subsidiary shall cease to be a Borrower hereunder at such time as no Loans, fees or any other amounts due in connection therewith pursuant to the terms hereof shall be outstanding by such Subsidiary, no Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Subsidiary shall be outstanding and such Subsidiary and the Company shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination substantially in the form of Exhibit O-2.

12.17.     Releases of Guaranties and Liens.

(a)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Basic Document, the Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender

122

(without requirement of notice to or consent of any Lender except as expressly required by Section 12.05) to take any action requested by the Parent having the effect of releasing any Collateral or guarantee obligations (i) to the extent necessary to permit consummation of any transaction not prohibited by any Basic Document or that has been consented to in accordance with Section 12.05, (ii) in accordance with the terms of Section 9.21(c)(V) and (iii) under the circumstances described in paragraph (b) below.

(b)           At such time as the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations and the other obligations under the Basic Documents (other than obligations under or in respect of Hedging Agreements) shall have been paid in full, the Revolving Commitments have been terminated and no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding, the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by the Security Documents, and the Security Documents and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Obligor under the Security Documents shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person.

12.18.     Amendment and Restatement.  (a)  The Obligors, the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Multi-Currency Payment Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders hereby agree that upon the Closing Date, the terms and provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement shall be and hereby are amended and restated in their entirety by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement (including, without limitation, paragraph (b) of this Section 12.18), shall be superseded by this Agreement.

(b)           Notwithstanding the amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement by this Agreement, the Obligors shall be liable in accordance with the terms and subject to the limitations set forth in the Existing Credit Agreement to each indemnitee under Section 12.04 of the Existing Credit Agreement with respect to agreements under the Existing Credit Agreement to indemnify and hold harmless such indemnitee from and against all losses, liabilities, claims, and damages to which such indemnitee may be subject arising in connection with the Existing Credit Agreement.  This Agreement is given as a substitution of, and not as a payment of, the obligations of the Obligors under the Existing Credit Agreement and is not intended to constitute a novation of the Existing Credit Agreement.

(c)           By execution of this Agreement all parties hereto agree that on and after the Closing Date (i) each relevant Basic Document is hereby amended such that all references to the Existing Credit Agreement and the Loans and Commitments thereunder shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement and the continuation of the Loans and Commitments hereunder, (ii) all obligations under the Parent Guaranty, the Company Guaranty, the Subsidiary Guaranty and the Security Documents are reaffirmed and remain in full force and effect on a continuous basis after giving effect to this Agreement, subject to any applicable limitations and conditions set forth therein, and (iii) all security interests and liens granted under the Security Documents and the other Basic Documents are reaffirmed and shall continue and secure the obligations hereunder and thereunder, and the obligations of the Obligors under the Parent Guaranty, the Company Guaranty, the Subsidiary Guaranty and the other Basic Documents after giving effect to this Agreement and the Parent Guaranty, the Company Guaranty and the Subsidiary Guaranty are reaffirmed subject to any applicable limitations and conditions set forth therein.  After giving effect to this Agreement

123

and the transactions contemplated hereby, neither the modification of the Existing Credit Agreement effected pursuant to this amendment and restatement nor the execution, delivery, performance or effectiveness of this Agreement (i) impairs the validity, effectiveness or priority of the Liens granted pursuant to the Basic Documents, and such Liens continue unimpaired with the same priority to secure repayment of all obligations purported to be secured thereby, whether heretofore or hereafter incurred, or (ii) requires that any new filings be made or other actions taken to perfect or to maintain the perfection of such Lien.

12.19.     Right to Setoff.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender, Issuing Bank or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or other Obligor against any of and all the obligations of such Borrower or Obligor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or other Basic Document held by such Lender, Issuing Bank or Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, Issuing Bank or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured.  The rights of each Lender and Issuing Bank and Affiliate under this Section 12.19 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender, Issuing Bank and Affiliate may have.

12.20.     Obligations of Multi-Currency Borrowers. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto acknowledge that each Multi-Currency Borrower that is an Excluded Subsidiary organized under the laws of Austria has not, by virtue of its execution of this Agreement, become liable or otherwise obligated for any obligations of the Parent, the Company or any other Obligor under any Basic Document  (the obligations of such Multi-Currency Borrower under this Agreement and the other Basic Documents being limited to the unpaid principal amount of any Loan advanced to or for the account of such Multi-Currency Borrower under the Credit Agreement, and all interest, fees, charges and expenses payable under any Basic Document to the extent attributable or otherwise related to any such Loan).

12.21.     Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

12.22.     Iron Mountain Luxembourg Services S.à.▇.▇.  The Parent, the Company and Iron Mountain Luxembourg Services S.à.▇.▇., Luxembourg, Schaffhausen Branch (the “Branch”) agree, represent and warrant that the Branch is executing and delivering this Agreement and the other Basic Documents to which it is a party on behalf of, and to bind and join, both itself and Iron Mountain Luxembourg Services S.à.▇.▇. on a joint and several basis.  The Branch is a branch of, and has authority to act for and bind, Iron Mountain Luxembourg Services S.à.▇.▇.
