SECTION 2. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS

2.1 Term Commitments. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Tranche B Term Lender severally agrees to make a term loan denominated in US Dollars (a “Tranche B Term Loan”) to the Parent Borrower on the Closing Date in an amount not to exceed the amount of the Tranche B Term Commitment of such Lender.

(b) The Parent Borrower and one or more Lenders (including new Lenders) may from time to time agree that such Lenders shall become Incremental Lenders under an Incremental Term Facility by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Term Loan Activation Notice specifying (i) the respective Incremental Term Loan Amounts of such Incremental Lenders, (ii) the applicable Incremental Term Loan Closing Date, (iii) the applicable Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date, (iv) the amortization schedule for the applicable Incremental Term Loans, which shall comply with Section 2.3(b), and (v) the Applicable Margin for the Incremental Term Loans to be made pursuant to such Incremental Term Loan Activation Notice. Each Incremental Lender party to an Incremental Term Loan Activation Notice severally agrees, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to make a term loan (an “Incremental Term Loan”; together with the Tranche B Term Loans, the “Term Loans”) to the Parent Borrower, as specified in such Incremental Term Loan Activation Notice, on the Incremental Term Loan Closing Date specified in such Incremental Term Loan Activation Notice in a principal amount equal to the Incremental Term Loan Amount of such Incremental Lender. Nothing in this Section 2.1(b) shall be construed to obligate any Lender to execute an Incremental Term Loan Activation Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) the aggregate amount of Incremental Term Loans outstanding under all Incremental Term Facilities shall at no time exceed $400,000,000, and (y) no Incremental Term Loans shall be made if, after giving pro forma effect to the incurrence thereof and to the use of the proceeds thereof, (1) any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or (2) the Parent Borrower shall not be in compliance with the Required Consolidated Leverage Ratio.

(c) The Term Loans may from time to time be Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans, as determined by the Parent Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.2 and 2.14.

2.2 Procedure for Term Loan Borrowing. (a) The Parent Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 10:00 A.M., New York City time, on the Closing Date) requesting that the Tranche B Term Lenders make the Tranche B Term Loans on the Closing Date and specifying the amount to be borrowed. The Tranche B Term Loans made on the Closing Date shall initially be ABR Loans. Upon receipt of such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Tranche B Term Lender thereof. Not later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the Closing Date each Tranche B Term Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent at the relevant Funding Office an amount in immediately available funds equal to the Tranche B Term Loans to be made by such Lender. The Administrative Agent shall credit the account of the Parent Borrower on the books of such office of the Administrative Agent with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Tranche B Term Lenders in immediately available funds.

(b) The Parent Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice of the borrowing of any Incremental Term Loans under any Incremental Term Facility (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to prior to 10:00 A.M., New York City time, one Business Day prior to the requested Incremental Term Loan Closing Date). Upon receipt of any such notice with respect to an Incremental Term Facility, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Incremental Lender thereof. Not later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the Incremental Term Loan Closing Date each relevant Incremental Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent at the relevant Funding Office an amount in immediately available funds equal to the Incremental Term Loan to be made by such Incremental Lender. The Administrative Agent shall credit the account of the Parent Borrower on the books of such office of the Administrative Agent with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Incremental Lenders in immediately available funds. The provisions of the paragraph shall be subject to any applicable limitations or requirements in the relevant Incremental Term Loan Activation Notice.

2.3 Repayment of Term Loans. (a) The Tranche B Term Loans of each Tranche B Term Lender shall mature in 27 consecutive quarterly installments, beginning with the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2007, and a final installment payable on the Maturity Date. Each such installment shall be equal to the relevant Tranche B Term Lender’s relevant Tranche B Term Loan Percentage multiplied by (x) with respect to the installments payable prior to the Maturity Date, 0.25% of the aggregate amount of the Tranche B Term Loans initially funded by the Lenders and (ii) with respect to the installment payable on the Maturity Date, an amount equal to the then outstanding principal amount of the Tranche B Term Loans.

(b) The Incremental Term Loans of each Incremental Lender shall mature in such installments as are specified in the relevant Incremental Term Loan Activation Notice; provided, that such Incremental Term Loans shall have a Weighted Average Life not shorter than that of the outstanding Tranche B Term Loans and shall not have a final maturity date earlier than the Maturity Date.

2.4 Revolving Commitments. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (x) each Revolving Lender separately agrees to make revolving credit loans denominated in US Dollars to the Parent Borrower and the Subsidiary Borrower (such loans, the “US Revolving Loans”) and (y) each Revolving Lender separately agrees to make revolving credit loans denominated in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars, and extend credit by way of Bankers’ Acceptances, to the Canadian Borrower (such loans and acceptance of Bankers’ Acceptances, the “Canadian Revolving Loans” and, together with the US Revolving Loans, the “Revolving Loans”) from time to time during the Revolving Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding which, when added to such Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the sum of (i) the L/C Obligations then outstanding and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans then outstanding, does not exceed the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment; provided, that the Revolving Lenders shall have no obligation to make any Canadian Revolving Loans if, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of the Canadian Revolving Loans then outstanding and the L/C Obligations and the Swingline Loans of the Canadian Borrower then outstanding would exceed US$150,000,000. During the Revolving Commitment Period, each Borrower may use the Revolving Commitments by borrowing, prepaying the Revolving Loans in whole or in part, and

reborrowing (including, in the case of Canadian Revolving Loans, by requesting the Revolving Lenders to accept and purchase Bankers’ Acceptances), all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. The Revolving Loans may from time to time be (1) Eurodollar Loans, in the case of Revolving Loans denominated in US Dollars, (2) ABR Loans in the case of US Revolving Loans, (3) US Base Rate Loans in the case of Canadian Revolving Loans denominated in US Dollars, (4) Canadian Prime Rate Loans, in the case of Canadian Revolving Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, or (5) Bankers’ Acceptances, in the case of Canadian Revolving Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, in each case as determined by the relevant Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.5, 2.6 and 2.14.

(b) Each Borrower shall repay all its outstanding Revolving Loans in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars, as the case may be, on the Termination Date; provided that any Canadian Revolving Loans designated as a Short Term Borrowing shall be repaid on the Short Term Borrowing Maturity Date therefor, may not be continued or converted pursuant to Section 2.14 to the extent such continuation or conversion would cause the maturity date of such Canadian Revolving Loan to extend beyond the Short Term Borrowing Maturity Date therefor and may not otherwise be refinanced with the proceeds of a borrowing hereunder (it being expressly understood that repayment of a Short Term Borrowing shall not reduce the Revolving Commitments).

2.5 Procedure for Revolving Loan Borrowing. A Borrower may borrow under the Revolving Commitments during the Revolving Commitment Period on any Business Day, provided that (a) with respect to US Revolving Loans, the Parent Borrower or the Subsidiary Borrower, as the case may be, shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 10:00 A.M., on the Closing Date for Loans requested to be made on the Closing Date, three Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Eurodollar Loans or one Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of ABR Loans), specifying (i) the amount and Type of US Revolving Loans to be borrowed, (ii) the requested Borrowing Date, and (iii) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the length of the initial Interest Period and (b) with respect to Canadian Revolving Loans, the Canadian Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 10:00 A.M., on the Closing Date for Loans requested to be made on the Closing Date, three Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date in the case of Eurodollar Loans, two Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Bankers’ Acceptances or one Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing Date in the case of US Base Rate Loans and Canadian Prime Rate Loans), specifying (i) whether such Canadian Revolving Loans shall be denominated in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars, (ii) the amount and Type of Canadian Revolving Loans to be borrowed, (iii) the requested Borrowing Date, (iv) whether the Revolving Loans to be borrowed shall be designated as Short-Term Borrowings and (v) in the case of Eurodollar Loans and Bankers’ Acceptances, the length of the initial Interest Period or Contract Period therefor. Each borrowing under the Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount equal to US$10,000,000 or C$10,000,000 or a whole multiple of US$1,000,000 or C$1,000,000 in excess thereof or, if the then aggregate Available Revolving Commitments are less than US$10,000,000, such lesser amount (or the Canadian Dollar Equivalent thereof); provided, that each Swingline Lender may request, on behalf of any Borrower, borrowings under the Revolving Commitments that are ABR Loans, US Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans in other amounts pursuant to Section 2.9. Upon receipt of any such notice from the relevant Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender thereof. Each Revolving Lender will make the amount of its pro rata share of each borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Borrower at the relevant Funding Office prior to 12:00 Noon, on the Borrowing Date requested by such Borrower in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will then be made available to such Borrower by the Administrative Agent crediting an account as directed by the relevant Borrower with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent. Each Revolving Lender shall make available to the Canadian Borrower Bankers’ Acceptance borrowings during the Revolving Commitment Period, in accordance with and pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.6.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if after giving effect to any proposed Revolving Loan, the amount of the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit (other than Swingline Loans) would equal or exceed the Total Revolving

Commitments less the aggregate of all Swingline Commitments, then: (a) the time for notice to request such proposed Revolving Loan shall (unless otherwise determined by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) be increased by one additional Business Day and (b) together with delivery of such notice of proposed Revolving Loan, a Responsible Officer of the relevant Borrower shall certify to the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lenders in writing that, after giving effect to such Revolving Loan, the amount of the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit (including all outstanding Swingline Loans by way of account overdraft or otherwise) shall not exceed the Total Revolving Commitments.

2.6 Bankers’ Acceptances. (a) Term. Each Bankers’ Acceptance shall have a Contract Period of approximately thirty days, sixty days, ninety days or one hundred and eighty days or (with the consent of each affected Lender) two hundred and seventy days or three hundred and sixty-five days, subject to availability. No Contract Period shall extend beyond the Termination Date (or the Short Term Borrowing Maturity Date in the case of a Short Term Borrowing by way of Bankers’ Acceptances). If such Contract Period would otherwise end on a day that is not a Business Day, such Contract Period shall end on the next preceding day that is a Business Day.

(b) Discount Rate. On each Borrowing Date on which Bankers’ Acceptances are to be accepted, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Canadian Borrower as to the Administrative Agent’s determination of the applicable Discount Rate for the Bankers’ Acceptances which any of the Revolving Lenders have agreed to purchase.

(c) Purchase. Each Revolving Lender agrees to purchase a Bankers’ Acceptance accepted by it. The Canadian Borrower shall sell, and such Revolving Lender shall purchase, the Bankers’ Acceptance at the applicable Discount Rate. Such Revolving Lender shall provide to the relevant Funding Office the Discount Proceeds less the Acceptance Fee payable by the Canadian Borrower with respect to such Bankers’ Acceptance. Such proceeds will then be made available to the Canadian Borrower by the Administrative Agent crediting an account as directed by the Canadian Borrower with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by such Revolving Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

(d) Sale. Each Revolving Lender may from time to time hold, sell, rediscount or otherwise dispose of any or all Bankers’ Acceptances accepted and purchased by it.

(e) Power of Attorney for the Execution of Bankers’ Acceptances. To facilitate borrowings under the Revolving Commitments by way of B/As, the Canadian Borrower hereby appoints each Revolving Lender as its attorney to sign and endorse on its behalf, in handwriting or by facsimile or mechanical signature as and when deemed necessary by such Revolving Lender, blank forms of B/As. In this respect, it is each Revolving Lender’s responsibility to maintain an adequate supply of blank forms of B/As for acceptance under this Agreement. The Canadian Borrower recognizes and agrees that all B/As required to be accepted and purchased by any Revolving Lender and which are signed and/or endorsed on its behalf by a Revolving Lender shall bind the Canadian Borrower as fully and effectually as if signed in the handwriting of and duly issued by the proper signing officers of the Canadian Borrower. Each Revolving Lender is hereby authorized to issue such B/As endorsed in blank in such face amounts as may be determined by such Revolving Lender; provided that the aggregate amount thereof is equal to the aggregate amount of B/As required to be accepted and purchased by such Revolving Lender. No Revolving Lender shall be liable for any damage, loss or other claim arising by reason of any loss or improper use of any such instrument except the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Revolving Lender or its officers, employees, agents or representatives. On request by the Canadian Borrower, a Revolving Lender shall cancel all forms of B/As which have been pre-signed or pre-endorsed by or on behalf of the Canadian Borrower and which are held by such Revolving Lender and have not yet been issued in accordance herewith. Each Revolving Lender shall maintain a record with respect to B/As held by it in blank hereunder, voided by it for any reason, accepted and purchased by it hereunder, and cancelled at their respective maturities. Each Revolving Lender agrees to provide such records to the Canadian Borrower at the Canadian Borrower’s expense upon request.

(f) Execution. Drafts drawn by the Canadian Borrower to be accepted as Bankers’ Acceptances shall be signed by a duly authorized officer or officers of the Canadian Borrower or by its attorneys including attorneys appointed pursuant to Section 2.6(e) above. Notwithstanding that any Person whose signature appears on any Bankers’ Acceptance may no longer be an authorized signatory for the Canadian Borrower at the time of issuance of a Bankers’ Acceptance, that signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes as if the authority had remained in force at the time of issuance and any Bankers’ Acceptance so signed shall be binding on the Canadian Borrower.

(g) Issuance. The Administrative Agent, promptly following receipt of a notice of borrowing, continuation or conversion by way of Bankers’ Acceptances, shall advise the applicable Revolving Lenders of the notice and shall advise each such Revolving Lender of the face amount of Bankers’ Acceptances to be accepted by it and the applicable Contract Period (which shall be identical for all Revolving Lenders). The aggregate face amount of Bankers’ Acceptances to be accepted by a Revolving Lender shall be determined by the Administrative Agent by reference to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the issue of Bankers’ Acceptances, except that, if the face amount of a Bankers’ Acceptance which would otherwise be accepted by a Revolving Lender would not be C$100,000, or a whole multiple thereof, the face amount shall be increased or reduced by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion to C$100,000, or the nearest whole multiple of that amount, as appropriate; provided that after such issuance, no Revolving Lender shall have outstanding Revolving Extensions of Credit in excess of its Revolving Commitment.

(h) Waiver of Presentment and Other Conditions. The Canadian Borrower waives presentment for payment and any other defense to payment of any amounts due to a Revolving Lender in respect of a Bankers’ Acceptance accepted and purchased by it pursuant to this Agreement which might exist solely by reason of the Bankers’ Acceptance being held, at the maturity thereof, by such Revolving Lender in its own right and the Canadian Borrower agrees not to claim any days of grace if such Revolving Lender as holder sues the Canadian Borrower on the Bankers’ Acceptance for payment of the amount payable by the Canadian Borrower thereunder. On the specified maturity date of a B/A, or the date of any prepayment thereof in accordance with this Agreement, if earlier, the Canadian Borrower shall pay to such Revolving Lender that has accepted such B/A the full face amount of such B/A (or shall make provision for payment by way of conversion or continuation in accordance with Sections 2.14(c) or (d) in full and absolute satisfaction of its obligations with respect to such B/A, and after such payment, the Canadian Borrower shall have no further liability in respect of such B/A (except to the extent that any such payment is rescinded or reclaimed by operation of law or otherwise) and such Revolving Lender shall be entitled to all benefits of, and will make and otherwise be responsible for all payments due to the redeeming holder or any third parties under, such B/A.

(i) BA Equivalent Loans by Non BA Lenders. Whenever the Canadian Borrower requests a borrowing by way of Bankers’ Acceptances, each Non BA Lender shall, in lieu of accepting a Bankers’ Acceptance, make a BA Equivalent Loan in an amount equal to such Non BA Lender’s Revolving Percentage of such borrowing. On the relevant Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall credit an account as directed by the Canadian Borrower with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

(j) Terms Applicable to BA Equivalent Loans. As set out in the definition of “Bankers’ Acceptances”, that term includes Discount Notes and all terms of this Agreement applicable to Bankers’ Acceptances (including the provisions of Section 2.6(e) relating to their execution by the Revolving Lenders under power of attorney) shall apply equally to Discount Notes evidencing BA Equivalent Loans with such changes as may in the context be necessary. For greater certainty:

(i) the term of a Discount Note shall be the same as the Contract Period for Bankers’ Acceptances accepted and purchased on the same Borrowing Date in respect of the same borrowing;

(ii) an acceptance fee will be payable in respect of a Discount Note and shall be calculated at the same rate and in the same manner as the Acceptance Fee in respect of a Bankers’ Acceptance; and

(iii) the Discount Rate applicable to a Discount Note shall be the Discount Rate applicable to Bankers’ Acceptances accepted by a Revolving Lender that is not a Schedule I Lender in accordance with the definition of “Discount Rate” on the same Borrowing Date or date of continuation or conversion, as the case may be, in respect of the same borrowing for the relevant Contract Period.

Each Non BA Lender may agree, in lieu of receiving any Discount Notes, that such Discount Notes may be uncertificated and the applicable BA Equivalent Loan shall be evidenced by a loan account, which such Non BA Lender shall maintain in its name, and in such event such loan account shall be entitled to all the benefits of Discount Notes in respect of BA Equivalent Loans.

(k) Depository Bills and Notes Act. At the option of the Canadian Borrower and any Revolving Lender, Bankers’ Acceptances under this Agreement to be accepted by such Revolving Lender may be issued in the form of depository bills for deposit with The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited pursuant to the Depository Bills and Notes Act (Canada). All depository bills so issued shall be governed by the provisions of this Section 2.6.

2.7 Circumstances Making Bankers’ Acceptances Unavailable. (a) If the Administrative Agent determines in good faith, which determination shall constitute prima facie evidence thereof, and notifies the Canadian Borrower that, by reason of circumstances affecting the money market, there is no market for Bankers’ Acceptances, then:

(i) the right of the Canadian Borrower to request a borrowing by way of Bankers’ Acceptance shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent determines that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and the Administrative Agent so notifies the Canadian Borrower; and

(ii) any notice relating to a borrowing by way of Bankers’ Acceptance which is outstanding at such time shall be deemed to be a notice requesting a borrowing by way of Canadian Prime Rate Loans (all as if it were a notice given pursuant to Section 2.5).

(b) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Canadian Borrower and the Revolving Lenders of the suspension in accordance with Section 2.7(a) of the Canadian Borrower’s right to request a borrowing by way of Bankers’ Acceptance and of the termination of such suspension.

2.8 Swingline Commitment. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (x) each Swingline Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Lenders set forth in Section 2.9, agrees to make a portion of the credit otherwise available to the Parent Borrower or the Subsidiary Borrower in US Dollars under the Revolving Commitments from time to time during the Revolving Commitment Period by making swing line loans (such loans, “US Swingline Loans”) to the US Borrowers in US Dollars and (y) each Swingline Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Lenders set forth in Section 2.9, agrees to make a portion of the credit otherwise available to the Canadian Borrower under the Revolving Commitments from time to time during the Revolving Commitment Period by making swing line loans (such loans, “Canadian Swingline Loans”; and, together with the US Swingline Loans, the “Swingline Loans”) to the Canadian Borrower in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars; provided that the Swingline Lenders shall not make any Swingline Loan available if, after giving effect thereto (i) the aggregate principal amount of such Swingline Lender’s Swingline Loans outstanding would exceed the Swingline Commitment then in effect for such Swingline Lender, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed the Total Revolving Commitments or (iii) the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit to the Canadian Borrower would exceed US$150,000,000. During the Revolving Commitment Period, the Borrowers may use the Swingline Commitment by borrowing, repaying and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan, in the case of a US Swingline Loan, a US Base Rate Loan, in the case of a Canadian Swingline Loan denominated in US Dollars, or a Canadian Prime Rate Loan, in the case of a Swingline Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars.

(b) Each Borrower shall repay its outstanding Swingline Loans on such terms as it may agree with the relevant Swingline Lender; provided that in no event shall such repayment occur later than the Termination

Date; and provided further that any Swingline Loans designated (or deemed to be so designated pursuant to Section 2.9(a)(ii)) as a Short Term Borrowing shall be repaid on the Short Term Borrowing Maturity Date applicable thereto, may not be continued or converted pursuant to Section 2.14 to the extent such continuation or conversion would cause the maturity date of such Swingline Loan to extend beyond the applicable Short Term Borrowing Maturity Date and may not otherwise be refinanced with the proceeds of a borrowing hereunder (it being expressly understood that repayment of a Short Term Borrowing shall not reduce the Swingline Commitments).

2.9 Procedures for Swingline Borrowing and Reporting; Refunding of Swingline Loans. (a)(i) Whenever the Parent Borrower or the Subsidiary Borrower desires that any Swingline Lender make US Swingline Loans, it shall give such Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by such Swingline Lender no later than 12:00 P.M. on the proposed Borrowing Date), specifying (A) the amount to be borrowed and (B) the requested Borrowing Date (which shall be a Business Day during the Revolving Commitment Period). Whenever the Canadian Borrower desires that any Swingline Lender make Canadian Swingline Loans, it shall give such Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by such Swingline Lender not later than 12:00 P.M. on the proposed Borrowing Date), specifying (A) whether such Loan shall be denominated in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars, (B) the amount to be borrowed, (C) the requested Borrowing Date (which shall be a Business Day during the Revolving Commitment Period) and (D) whether such Swingline Loan to be borrowed shall be designated as a Short Term Borrowing. Each borrowing under any Swingline Commitment shall be in an amount equal to US$1,000,000 or C$1,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof. Not later than 2:00 P.M., on the Borrowing Date specified in a notice in respect of any Swingline Loan, the relevant Swingline Lender shall make such Swingline Loan available to the relevant Borrower, in the manner and on such terms as may be agreed by such Swingline Lender and such Borrower.

(ii) Alternatively, the Parent Borrower or Canadian Borrower may establish or designate, by agreement with each relevant Swingline Lender, at its Lending Office, accounts for the Canadian Borrower (one in Canadian Dollars and one in US Dollars), each of which is referred to as a “Swingline Account”. The Swingline Accounts shall record the day to day banking business of the Canadian Borrower with such Swingline Lender (other than under this Agreement). If, at the end of any Business Day, the balance in any Swingline Account is a debit, then to the extent there is sufficient availability under the Swingline Commitment and subject to the conditions in Section 2.8(a), such debit position shall be deemed to be recorded as a Swingline Loan by way of US Base Rate Loan or Canadian Prime Rate Loan, as applicable, and shall be deemed to have been designated as a Short Term Borrowing. The accounts and records of each Swingline Lender shall constitute, in the absence of manifest error, prima facie evidence of outstanding Swingline Loans and Swingline Account balances from time to time, the Borrowing Dates such Swingline Loans were made and all amounts that the Canadian Borrower has paid from time to time on account of such Obligations.

(iii) Each Swingline Lender and the relevant Borrower shall be solely responsible for monitoring the outstanding balance of all Swingline Accounts and Swingline Loans made by such Swingline Lender from time to time. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for monitoring such balances or determining compliance with the conditions in Section 2.8(a).

(iv) Each Swingline Lender to each Borrower shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent on the first Business Day of each month (or as may otherwise be requested by the Administrative Agent), the aggregate Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding as of the last Business Day of the preceding month; provided, that in the event the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit (other than Swingline Loans) equal or exceed the Total Revolving Commitments less the aggregate of all Swingline Commitments, such Swingline Lender shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent on a daily basis, or as may be otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, the aggregate Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding on each Business Day.

(b) A Borrower may, from time to time voluntarily prepay Swingline Loans on such terms as it may agree with the relevant Swingline Lender. At any time when a Swingline Loan is outstanding, at the written request of a Swingline Lender to the Administrative Agent, with a copy to the relevant Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall, on the date of such request, request (on behalf of such Borrower, which hereby irrevocably directs the Administrative Agent to act on its behalf) each Revolving Lender to make a Revolving Loan by way of an ABR Loan (in the case of US Swingline Loans), a US Base Rate Loan (in the case of US Dollar-denominated Canadian Swingline Loans) or a Canadian Prime Rate Loan (in the case of Canadian Dollar-denominated Canadian Swingline Loans), to such Borrower in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the principal amount of such outstanding Swingline Loan (the “Refunded Swingline Loan”) owing by such Borrower on the date such notice is given (regardless of whether such Refunded Swingline Loan complies with the minimum borrowing provisions of Section 2.5). Upon such request by the Administrative Agent for the refunding of the Swingline Loan, each Revolving Lender shall make the amount of its ABR Loan, US Base Rate Loan or Canadian Prime Rate Loan, as the case may be, available for value to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Swingline Lender at the relevant Funding Office of the Administrative Agent before 2:00 P.M. on the date of such request; provided, however, that if a Default or an Event of Default under Section 8(h) or Section 8(i) shall have occurred and be continuing, the Revolving Lenders shall not make such Refunded Swingline Loans and the procedures of Section 2.9(c) shall apply. Any Revolving Loans made under this Section 2.9(b) to refund any Swingline Loan designated (or deemed to be so designated pursuant to Section 2.9(a)(ii)) as a Short Term Borrowing shall be repaid on the Short Term Borrowing Maturity Date applicable to the Swingline Loans so refunded and the provisions of Section 2.4(b) shall apply mutatis mutandis to such repayment.

(c) If, before the making of an ABR Loan, a US Base Rate Loan or a Canadian Prime Rate Loan under Section 2.9(b), a Default or an Event of Default under Section 8(h) or Section 8(i) shall have occurred and be continuing, each Revolving Lender will, on the date such ABR Loan, US Base Rate Loan or Canadian Prime Rate Loan was to have been made, purchase from the Swingline Lender an undivided participating interest in the Swingline Loan to be refunded in an amount (the “Swingline Participation Amount”) equal to its Revolving Percentage of such Swingline Loan to be refunded. Each Revolving Lender will immediately transfer to the Administrative Agent, in funds for value, the amount of its participation.

(d) Whenever, at any time after any Swingline Lender has received from any Revolving Lender such Revolving Lender’s Swingline Participation Amount, such Swingline Lender receives any payment on account of the Swingline Loans, such Swingline Lender will distribute, through the Administrative Agent, to such Revolving Lender its Revolving Percentage of such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded and, in the case of principal and interest payments, to reflect such Revolving Lender’s pro rata portion of such payment if such payment is not sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on all Swingline Loans then due); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by such Swingline Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Lender will return to such Swingline Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it by such Swingline Lender.

(e) Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make the Loans referred to in Section 2.9(b) and to purchase participating interests pursuant to Section 2.9(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Revolving Lender or the relevant Borrower may have against any Swingline Lender, such Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries; (iv) any breach of this Agreement by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Revolving Lender; or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

2.10 Commitment Fees, etc. (a) The Parent Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee (a “Commitment Fee”) in US Dollars, which shall accrue at the Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily unused portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Revolving Lender during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the date on which such Revolving Commitment terminates; provided, that, for purposes of the Commitment Fee calculations only, Swingline Loans shall not be deemed to be a utilization of the Revolving Facility. Accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on the third Business Day after the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof.

(b) The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent the fees in the amounts and on the dates previously agreed to in writing by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in the fee letter dated as of August 22, 2006.

2.11 Termination or Reduction of Revolving Commitments. The Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and the other Borrowers) shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent to terminate the Revolving Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Revolving Commitments; provided that no such termination or reduction of Revolving Commitments shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed the Total Revolving Commitments as so terminated or reduced. Any such reduction shall be in a minimum amount equal to US$10,000,000, or a whole multiple of US$1,000,000 in excess thereof, and shall reduce permanently the Revolving Commitments then in effect.

2.12 Optional Prepayments. (a) Each of the Borrowers may at any time and from time to time prepay any Loans made to it, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon irrevocable notice delivered to the Administrative Agent, at least three Business Days prior thereto, which notice shall specify the date and amount of prepayment, whether the prepayment is of Swingline Loans, Revolving Loans or Term Loans and whether the prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans, ABR Loans, US Base Rate Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Bankers’ Acceptances; provided, that if a Eurodollar Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the relevant Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.22. Optional prepayments shall be applied as directed by the relevant Borrower.

(b) Upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans, US Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans and Swingline Loans) accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of US$10,000,000 or C$10,000,000, as the case may be, or a whole multiple of US$1,000,000 or C$1,000,000 in excess thereof. Amounts prepaid with respect to the Term Loans may not be reborrowed. Bankers’ Acceptances may be prepaid prior to the maturity thereof, provided that the Canadian Borrower shall pay the full face amount of such Bankers’ Acceptances to the Administrative Agent, which payment shall be made in full and absolute satisfaction of the Canadian Borrower’s reimbursement obligation in respect of such Banker’s Acceptances.

2.13 Mandatory Prepayments. (a) If any Indebtedness shall be issued or incurred by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (excluding any Indebtedness permitted by Section 7.2), an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied on the date of such issuance or incurrence toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.13(e).

(b) On the date the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or Recovery Event then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof, an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied not later than five Business Days after such date toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.13(e); provided that

notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the unexpended portion of the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount (other than the Committed Reinvestment Amount) with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.13(e) and (y) on the date (the “Trigger Date”) that is one year after any such Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Commitment Reinvestment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event not actually expended by the Trigger Date shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.13(e).

(c) If, for any fiscal year of the Parent Borrower commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2008, there shall be Excess Cash Flow, the Parent Borrower shall, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, apply an amount equal to (i) the ECF Percentage of such Excess Cash Flow minus (ii) the aggregate amount of all prepayments of Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans during such fiscal year to the extent accompanied by permanent optional reductions of the Revolving Commitments and all optional prepayments of Term Loans during such fiscal year, in each case other than to the extent any such prepayment is funded with the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale, Recovery Event, new long-term Indebtedness or issuance of Capital Stock, toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.13(e). Each such prepayment shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”) no later than five business days after the date on which the financial statements of the Parent Borrower referred to in Section 6.1(a), for the fiscal year with respect to which such prepayment is being made, are required to be delivered to the Lenders.

(d) If, due to exchange rate fluctuations or for any reason whatsoever, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit outstanding shall, at any time, exceed 105% of the Total Revolving Commitments (the amount of such excess, an “Excess Amount”), then within three Business Days of written notice from the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall first, prepay the Revolving Loans and/or Swingline Loans in an amount so as to, as nearly as possible, eliminate such Excess Amount; and second, if any Excess Amount shall remain after such prepayment, provide cash collateral or such other security on Cash Equivalents as the Administrative Agent may require in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars in an amount equal to the remaining Excess Amount, which collateral shall secure all Obligations outstanding and shall remain in the Administrative Agent’s possession until such Excess Amount is eliminated whereupon the collateral shall be released by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, including any provision contemplating a continuation or conversion, whenever an Excess Amount exists, (A) upon the last day of the Contract Period of any Banker’s Acceptance, the Canadian Borrower shall repay the Banker’s Acceptance, or (B) upon the last day of the Interest Period in respect of a Eurodollar Loan that is a Revolving Loan, the relevant Borrower shall repay the Eurodollar Loan, in each case to the extent necessary to cover the Excess Amount and any repayments under clauses (A) and (B) shall be applied in reduction of the Excess Amount.

(e) The application of any prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.13(a), (b) and (c) shall be made to the Term Loans on a pro rata basis and within each Facility of the Term Loans, first, to the remaining Term Loans quarterly installments occurring within the next 12 months in the direct order of maturity and second, to the repayment of the then remaining Term Loan quarterly installments on a pro rata basis (based upon the then remaining principal amount of each such Term Loan quarterly installment). Each prepayment of the Loans under Section 2.13 (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans, US Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans and Swingline Loans) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.13 and subject to Section 3.5 with respect to Letters of Credit, if at any time any prepayment of the Loans pursuant to paragraph (a), (b), (c) or (d) of this Section 2.13 would result, after giving effect to the procedures set forth in this Agreement, in a Borrower being required to indemnify for breakage costs under Section 2.22 as a result of Eurodollar Loans being prepaid other than on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, then, such Borrower may, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in its sole discretion, initially deposit a portion (up to 100%) of the amounts that otherwise would have been paid in respect of

such Eurodollar Loans with the Administrative Agent (which deposit must be equal in amount to the amount of such Eurodollar Loans not immediately prepaid) to be held as security for the obligations of such Borrower to make such prepayment pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, with such cash collateral to be directly applied upon the first occurrence thereafter of the last day of an Interest Period with respect to such Eurodollar Loans (or such earlier date or dates as shall be requested by such Borrower); provided that such unpaid Eurodollar Loans shall continue to bear interest in accordance with Section 2.14 until such unpaid Eurodollar Loans or the related portion of such Eurodollar Loans, as the case may be, have or has been prepaid.

2.14 Conversion and Continuation Options. (a) The US Borrowers may elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans (other than Swingline Loans) to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor), and the Canadian Borrower may elect from time to time to convert US Base Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans) to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor); provided that no ABR Loan or US Base Rate Loan under a particular Facility may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Majority Facility Lenders, in respect of such Facility have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit any such conversion (with notice of such determination to be delivered to the relevant Borrower as soon as practicable). The US Borrowers may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election and the Canadian Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to US Base Rate Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election; provided that, in each case, any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

(b) Any Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the relevant Borrower giving irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1, of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans, provided that no Eurodollar Loan under a particular Facility may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such Facility have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit any such continuation (with notice of such determination to be delivered to the relevant Borrower as soon as practicable), and provided, further, that (i) if the relevant Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph such Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically continued as such with an Interest Period of one month on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period, but only to the extent that such continuation may then be made in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1, or (ii) if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding provisos such Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans, in the case of Eurodollar Loans to the US Borrowers, or US Base Rate Loans, in the case of Eurodollar Loans to the Canadian Borrower, in each case on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

(c) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Canadian Borrower may, prior to the Termination Date, effective on any Business Day, convert, in whole or in part, Canadian Prime Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans) into Bankers’ Acceptances or Bankers’ Acceptances into Canadian Prime Rate Loans upon giving to the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice, provided that:

(i) no Canadian Prime Rate Loan may be converted into a Bankers’ Acceptance when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such Facility have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit any such conversion;

(ii) each conversion to Bankers’ Acceptances or to Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall be for a minimum aggregate amount and whole multiples in excess thereof as are specified in Section 2.8;

(iii) Bankers’ Acceptances may be converted only on the maturity date of such Bankers’ Acceptances; and

(iv) if less than all Bankers’ Acceptances are converted, after such conversion not less than C$10,000,000 shall remain as Bankers’ Acceptances.

(d) At or before 10:00 A.M. two Business Days before the maturity date of any Bankers’ Acceptances, the Canadian Borrower shall give to the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice which notice shall specify either that the Canadian Borrower intends to repay the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances on the maturity date or that the Canadian Borrower intends to continue to issue Bankers’ Acceptances on the maturity date to provide for the payment of the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances. Subject to Section 2.6(a), if the Canadian Borrower fails to provide such notice to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Borrower shall be deemed to have notified the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders of its intention to continue to issue Bankers’ Acceptances with a Contract Period of one month to provide for the payment of the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances. If (i) pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement, Bankers’ Acceptances may not be issued as contemplated in the preceding sentence to provide for the payment of maturing Bankers’ Acceptances, (ii) the Canadian Borrower fails to repay the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances, or (iii) a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on such maturity date and the Administrative Agent has or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such Facility have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit any issuance of new Bankers’ Acceptances to provide for the payment of maturing Bankers’ Acceptances, then the Canadian Borrower’s obligations in respect of the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances shall be deemed to have been converted on the maturity date thereof into a Canadian Prime Rate Loan in an amount equal to the face amount of the maturing Bankers’ Acceptances.

(e) Without limitation of this Section, no Loans denominated in US$ may be converted into Loans denominated in C$, and no Loans denominated in C$ may be converted into Loans denominated in US$. For the avoidance of doubt, Revolving Loans to the Canadian Borrower denominated in US$ or C$ must be repaid in such currency, but may be reborrowed in either US$ or C$.

(f) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the relevant Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election, in each case within the notice period and in the form that would be required under Section 2.2 or Section 2.5, as the case may be, if such Borrower were requesting a borrowing of Loans of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election.

(g) For the avoidance of doubt, the conversion or continuation of Loans as herein provided shall not be deemed to constitute a repayment of existing Loans hereunder or the making of new Loans hereunder.

2.15 Limitations on Interest Periods and Contract Periods. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that no more than an aggregate amount of ten different Contract Periods in respect of B/A issuances and Interest Periods in respect of Eurodollar Loans shall be outstanding at any one time under any of the Facilities to the Borrowers.

2.16 Interest Rates and Payment Dates. (a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate determined for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Each US Base Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the US Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(d) Each Canadian Prime Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(e) Upon acceptance of a Bankers’ Acceptance by a Revolving Lender, the Canadian Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Revolving Lender a fee (the “Acceptance Fee”) calculated on the face amount of the Bankers’ Acceptance at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin on the basis of the number of days in the Contract Period for such Bankers’ Acceptance. Any adjustment to the Acceptance Fee (including any adjustment as necessary to reflect the operation of paragraph (f) of this Section) shall be computed based on the number of days remaining in the Contract Period of such Bankers’ Acceptances from and including the effective date of any change in the Applicable Margin. Any increase in such Acceptance Fee shall be paid by the Canadian Borrower to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Revolving Lenders on the last day of the Contract Period of the relevant Bankers’ Acceptance. Any decrease in such Acceptance Fee shall be paid by each Revolving Lender to the Canadian Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, on the last day of the Contract Period of the relevant Bankers’ Acceptance.

(f) (i) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (w) in the case of any Eurodollar Loans, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2%, (x) in the case of ABR Loans and Reimbursement Obligations of the US Borrowers, the rate applicable to ABR Loans plus 2%, (y) in the case of any US Base Rate Loans and Reimbursement Obligations of the Canadian Borrower denominated in US Dollars, the rate applicable to US Base Rate Loans plus 2%, or (z) in the case of any Loans and Reimbursement Obligations of the Canadian Borrower denominated in Canadian Dollars and any Bankers’ Acceptances, the rate applicable to Canadian Prime Rate Loans plus 2%, and (ii) if all or a portion of any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or any Commitment Fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall, to the extent such amount relates to a particular Facility, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to ABR Loans if such amount is owed by the US Borrowers, or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, if such overdue amount is denominated in Canadian Dollars or US Base Rate Loans, if such overdue amount is denominated in US Dollars and owed by the Canadian Borrower, in each case, plus 2% (or, in the case of any such other amounts that do not relate to a particular Facility, the rate then applicable to ABR Loans or US Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Facility plus 2% or to Canadian Prime Rate Loans under the Revolving Facility plus 2%, as the case may be depending on the currency of such amounts), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment).

(g) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date (except with respect to Acceptance Fees upon acceptance of Bankers’ Acceptances, as to which paragraph (e) of this Section shall apply until the end of the respective Contract Periods therefor), provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section shall be payable from time to time on demand. Interest in respect of Loans and Reimbursement Obligations that are denominated in US Dollars (and all other amounts denominated in US Dollars) shall be payable in US Dollars, and interest in respect of Loans or Reimbursement Obligations that are denominated in Canadian Dollars (and all other amounts denominated in Canadian Dollars) shall be payable in Canadian Dollars.

(h) (i) If any provision of this Agreement would obligate the Canadian Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Revolving Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by such Lender of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in a receipt by such Revolving Lender of interest at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, as follows:

(x) first, by reducing the amount or rates of interest required to be paid under this Section; and

(y) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts which would constitute interest for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).

(ii) If, notwithstanding the provisions of clause (i) of this paragraph (h), and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, any Revolving Lender shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by such clause, then the Canadian Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in writing to such Revolving Lender, to obtain reimbursement from such Revolving Lender of an amount equal to such excess, and, pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by such Revolving Lender to the Canadian Borrower.

(iii) Any amount or rate of interest referred to in this paragraph (h) shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term of any Loan on the assumption that any charges, fees or expenses that fall within the meaning of “interest” (as defined in the Criminal Code (Canada)) shall, if they relate to a specific period of time, be prorated over that period of time and otherwise be prorated over the period from the Closing Date to the Termination Date and, in the event of dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive for the purposes of such determination absent manifest error.

2.17 Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) (i) Interest on Loans the interest of which is not calculated on the basis of the Prime Rate or the reference rate of the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, (ii) Commitment Fees and fees payable pursuant to Section 3.3 and interest on ABR Loans, US Base Rate Loans and Canadian Prime Rate Loans the interest of which is calculated based on the Prime Rate or such reference rate shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, in the case of a leap year) day year for the actual days elapsed and (iii) Acceptance Fees and interest calculated on the basis of the CDOR Rate shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, in the case of a leap year) day year for the actual days elapsed. All interest on Loans shall be calculated on a daily basis on the principal amount thereof remaining unpaid. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the relevant Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate or the Discount Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR, the US Base Rate, or the Canadian Prime Rate shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the relevant Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall, in the absence of manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence of the same. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of a Borrower, deliver to such Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate applicable to it pursuant hereto.

(c) For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), in any case in which an interest rate is stated in this Agreement to be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days or any other period of time that is less than a calendar year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate determined pursuant to such calculation is equivalent is the rate so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year for which the calculation is made and divided by either 360 or such other period of time, as the case may be. In addition, the principles of deemed investment of interest do not apply to any interest calculations under this Agreement and the rates of interest stipulated in this Agreement are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.

2.18 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period:

(a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence thereof) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or

(b) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Majority Facility Lenders, each acting reasonably and in good faith, in respect of the relevant Facility that the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as certified by such Lenders, such certification constituting, in the absence of manifest error, prima facie evidence thereof) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the relevant Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (x) any Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans (in the case of any such Loans to be made to the US Borrowers) or US Base Rate Loans (in the case of any such Loans to be made to the Canadian Borrower), (y) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans (in the case of any such loans to be made to the US Borrowers) or US Base Rate Loans (in the case of any such loans to be made to the Canadian Borrower) and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, to ABR Loans (in the case of any such loans to be made to the US Borrowers) or US Base Rate Loans (in the case of any such loans to be made to the Canadian Borrower). Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the relevant Borrower have the right to convert Loans to Eurodollar Loans.

2.19 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Each borrowing by a Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, each payment by a Borrower on account of any Commitment Fee and, in the case of the Canadian Borrower, Acceptance Fee and any reduction of the Revolving Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the Tranche B Term Loan Percentages, Incremental Term Loan Percentages and Revolving Percentages, as the case may be, of the relevant Lenders.

(b) Each payment (including each prepayment) by a US Borrower or the Canadian Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the US Revolving Loans or Canadian Revolving Loans, as the case may be, shall be made to the relevant Revolving Lenders on a pro rata basis according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the relevant Revolving Loans then held by the applicable Revolving Lenders. Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Parent Borrower on account of principal and interest on the Term Loans under each Facility of Term Loans shall be pro rata according to the outstanding principal amount of such Term Loans then held by the Term Lenders. The amount of each principal prepayment of the Term Loans shall be applied as set forth in Section 2.13(e).

(c) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrowers hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 2:00 P.M., on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the relevant Lenders, at the relevant Funding Office, in US Dollars (with respect to Obligations denominated in US Dollars) or Canadian Dollars (with respect to Obligations denominated in Canadian Dollars), as the case may be, and in immediately available funds; provided, that if any event referred to in Sections 8(h) or (i) shall occur or an acceleration of the maturity of the Loans pursuant to Section 8 shall occur, all Obligations denominated in Canadian Dollars shall be converted to US Dollars based on the then US Dollar Equivalent thereof (except for then undrawn and unexpired amounts of the outstanding Letters of Credit and except that any Bankers’ Acceptance shall only be converted to US Dollars at the end of the Contract Period therefor). Receipt by the Administrative Agent from a Borrower of funds pursuant to this Agreement, as principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be deemed to be receipt of such funds by the relevant Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the relevant Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the

immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon (i) in the case of any such amount in US Dollars, at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (x) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate and (y) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available or (ii) in the case of any such amount in Canadian Dollars, at a rate per annum determined by the Administrative Agent (such determination to be conclusive and binding on such Lender) in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s cost of funding the amount of such payment, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans, US Base Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as the case may be, under the relevant Facility, on demand, from the relevant Borrower. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligations to fulfill its Commitments in accordance with the provisions hereof or to prejudice any rights which a Borrower has against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by a Borrower prior to the date of any payment due to be made by such Borrower hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to relevant Administrative Agent by the relevant Borrower within three Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon (i) in the case of any such amount in US Dollars, at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (x) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate and (y) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of any such amount in Canadian Dollars, at a rate per annum determined by the Administrative Agent (such determination to be conclusive and binding on such Lender) in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s cost of funding the amount of such payment. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against a Borrower.

2.20 Requirements of Law. (a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority, in each case made or given subsequent to the date hereof:

(i) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender in connection with this Agreement that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate, the Discount Rate or any other rate of interest hereunder; or

(ii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition (other than a Tax of any kind) in respect of any credit made available by such Lender hereunder or any other condition (other than a Tax of any kind) with respect to this Agreement;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount that such Lender reasonably deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or purchasing or accepting Bankers’ Acceptances, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, (i) such Lender shall provide to the relevant Borrower and the Administrative Agent a photocopy of the applicable law, rule, guideline, regulation, treaty or official directive and a written notice of such Lender setting forth any additional amounts such Lender is entitled to claim (the “Additional Compensation”) and the basis of calculation therefor, which shall, in the absence of manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence of such Additional Compensation, and (ii) such Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender, within 30 Business Days of the receipt from such Lender of the written notice herein referred to, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.

(b) If any Lender shall have reasonably determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority, in each case made subsequent to the date hereof or, if later, the date such Lender became a Lender, shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender would have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, within 30 Business Days after submission by such Lender to the relevant Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor, accompanied by a photocopy or an excerpt of the applicable direction, requirement or guidelines and a written notice of such Lender setting forth the reduction rate of return and the basis of calculation of any compensating amount, such Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction.

(c) A written notice as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender to the relevant Borrower (with a copy to relevant Administrative Agent) shall, in the absence of manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence of such additional amount. The obligations of each Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.21 Taxes. (a) All payments made by each Borrower under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Non-Excluded Taxes (as defined below) except to the extent such deduction or withholding is required by law. If any Tax which is not an Excluded Tax (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) is required by law to be deducted or withheld from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder, (i) the amounts so payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary such that the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall receive (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes including any Non-Excluded Taxes payable as a result of additional amounts paid by the relevant Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.21) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement, (ii) the relevant Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings, and (iii) the relevant Borrower shall remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with any requirement of law, provided, however, that the relevant Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes (i) that are attributable to the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of paragraph (e) or (f) of this Section or (ii) that are withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender at the time the Administrative Agent or such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional amounts from the relevant Borrower with respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes pursuant to this paragraph.

(b) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by a Borrower, as promptly as practical thereafter such Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of the relevant Lender, as the case may be, a copy of an original official receipt received by such Borrower showing payment thereof. If a Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence within 30 days of the later of written requests therefor by the Administrative Agent or any Lender and the date such receipt or evidence first becomes available to such Borrower, such Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure.

(c) Each Person that is, as of the Closing Date, a Lender making a Canadian Loan to the Canadian Borrower or issuing a Letter of Credit for the account of the Canadian Borrower hereby certifies to the Canadian Borrower, for purposes of making available Canadian Loans and/or Letters of Credit to, or for the account of, the Canadian Borrower, that it is either (i) a resident of Canada for purposes of Part XIII of the Income Tax Act (Canada) or (ii) an “authorized foreign bank” (as defined in the Bank Act (Canada)) and that the Canadian Loans and/or Letters of Credit made or issued by such Lender to the Canadian Borrower, and all payments made or credited to such Lender under such Canadian Loans and/or Letters of Credit, are in respect of such Lender’s Canadian banking business for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada). Any Lender in respect of the Canadian Borrower who, following the date hereof, does not for any reason satisfy the foregoing requirement, shall forthwith notify the Canadian Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(d) Each Lender to which Section 2.21(c) applies agrees to reimburse the Canadian Borrower for any penalty or interest imposed on the Canadian Borrower under the Income Tax Act (Canada) as a direct result of (i) such Lender’s certification in Section 2.21(c) being false, or (ii) such Lender failing to notify the Canadian Borrower and the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.21(c).

(e) Each Administrative Agent and Lender (or Assignee) that is not a “United States Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (each such Administrative Agent and Lender, a “Non-US Lender”) shall deliver to the US Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) two copies of either US Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY (and all necessary attachments) or other applicable Form W-8, or, in the case of a Non-US Lender claiming exemption from US federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit G and a Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-US Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, US federal withholding tax on all payments by the US Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-US Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation). In addition, each Non-US Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-US Lender. Each Non-US Lender shall promptly notify the US Borrowers at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the US Borrowers (or any other form provided for in this paragraph). A Non-US Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-US Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(f) Each Administrative Agent and each Lender, in each case that is organized under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof, shall, on or before the date of any payment by any of the US Borrowers under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to, or for the account of, such Administrative Agent or Lender, deliver to the US Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased), two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or successor form, certifying that such Administrative Agent or Lender is a “United States Person” (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) and that such Administrative Agent or Lender is entitled to a complete exemption from United States backup withholding tax. No Administrative Agent or Lender shall be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-US Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(g) The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.22 Indemnity. Each Borrower agrees to indemnify each relevant Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by such Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after such Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by such Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurodollar Loans after such Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurodollar market. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section (which certificate shall state the event by reason of which such amounts are payable) submitted to the relevant Borrower by any Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence thereof. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.23 Certain Rules Relating to the Payment of Additional Amounts. (a) Upon the request, and at the expense, of the relevant Borrower, each Lender to which such Borrower is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to Section 2.20 or 2.21, and any Participant in respect of whose participation such payment is required, shall afford such Borrower the opportunity to participate, as may reasonably be requested by such Borrower, with such Lender or Participant in contesting the imposition of any cost or Non-Excluded Tax giving rise to such payment; provided that (i) such Lender or Participant shall not be required to afford such Borrower the opportunity to so participate unless such Borrower shall have paid such additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.20 or 2.21 and (ii) such Borrower shall reimburse such Lender or Participant for its reasonable legal and accountants’ fees and disbursements incurred in contesting the imposition of such cost or Non-Excluded Tax; provided, further, that notwithstanding the foregoing no Lender or Participant shall be required to afford a Borrower the opportunity to participate with such Lender or Participant in contesting the imposition of any Non-Excluded Taxes, if such Lender or Participant in its sole discretion (exercised in good faith) determines that to do so would have an adverse effect on it.

(b) If a Lender changes its applicable lending office (other than pursuant to paragraph (c) below) and the effect of such change, as of the date of such change, would be to cause the Borrowers to become obligated to pay any additional amount under Section 2.20 or 2.21, the Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay such additional amount.

(c) If a condition or an event occurs which would, or would upon the passage of time or giving of notice, result in the payment of any additional amount to any Lender by a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.20 or 2.21, such Lender shall promptly notify such Borrower and the Administrative Agent and shall use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to mitigate the effects of such condition or event (which shall include efforts to rebook the Loans held by such Lender at another lending office, or through another branch or an Affiliate, of such Lender); provided that such Lender shall not be required to take any action that, in its sole judgment, would be disadvantageous to its business or operations or would require it to incur additional costs (unless such Borrower agrees to reimburse such Lender for the reasonable incremental out-of-pocket costs thereof) and provided, further, that nothing in this paragraph shall affect or postpone any of such obligations of such Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.20 or 2.21.

(d) If a Borrower shall become obligated to pay additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.20 or 2.21 and any affected Lender shall not have promptly taken steps necessary to avoid the need for payments under Section 2.20 or 2.21, the Borrowers shall have the right, for so long as such obligation remains, to seek one or more substitute Lenders reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Administrative Agent and the Borrowers to purchase the affected Loan, in whole or in part, at an aggregate price no less than such Loan’s principal amount plus accrued interest, and assume the affected obligations under this Agreement. The Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the affected Lender, and any substitute Lender shall execute and deliver an appropriately completed Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to subsection 10.6(c) to effect the assignment of rights to, and the assumption of obligations by, the substitute Lender; provided that any fees required to be paid by subsection 10.6(e) in connection with such assignment shall be paid by such Borrower or the substitute Lender. The relevant Borrower shall pay the affected Lender any additional amounts owing under Section 2.20 or 2.21 (as well as any Commitment Fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender) prior to such substitution.

(e) If, as a result of any deduction or withholding a Borrower makes any payment of any additional amounts to any Lenders and/or any Administrative Agent under Section 2.20 or 2.21 and any such Lender or the Administrative Agent shall become aware that it is entitled to receive a refund or to be granted a credit or relief or remission for or in respect of the amounts so paid by such Borrower, which refund, credit, relief or remission, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender or the Administrative Agent is allocable to such payment, it shall promptly notify such Borrower of the availability of such refund, credit, relief or remission and shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the receipt of a request by such Borrower, apply for such refund, credit, relief or remission. If, as a result of any deduction or withholding, a Borrower makes any payment of any additional amounts to any Lender and/or any Administrative Agent under Section 2.20 or 2.21 and any such Lender or the Administrative Agent receives or has been granted a credit against or relief or remission for or repayment of any tax paid or payable by it in respect thereof or which takes account of the deduction, withholding or other matter giving rise to such payment, such Lender or Administrative Agent will, to the extent it determines acting reasonably and in good faith that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the amount of such credit, relief, remission or repayment, pay to such Borrower such amount as such Lender or the Administrative Agent shall, in its reasonable opinion, determine to be attributable to such deduction or withholding or other matter and which will leave it (after such payment) in a position which it determines, acting reasonably and in good faith, to be no better or worse than it would have been if such Borrower had not been required to make such deduction or withholding or if such other matter had not arisen. Such determination shall be made after the conclusive settlement of the tax position of such Lender or the Administrative Agent for the year in which a tax loss carry-back period expires which could affect the taxation of the year in which the payment is taxed. Nothing in this Section 2.23(e) shall interfere with the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it deems fit and, in particular, no Administrative Agent or Lender shall be under any obligation to claim relief from its corporate profits or similar Tax liability in respect of any such deduction or withholding in priority to any other relief, refunds, credits or remissions available to it, and nothing in this Section 2.23(e) shall require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to disclose or detail the basis of its calculation of the amount of any refund or reduction of, or credit against, its Tax liabilities or disclose any other information to the Borrowers or any other Person.

(f) The obligations of the Administrative Agent, a Lender or Participant under this Section 2.23 shall survive the termination and the payment of the Loans and all amounts payable hereunder.

SECTION 3. LETTERS OF CREDIT

3.1 L/C Commitment. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), agrees to issue letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the account of the relevant Borrower on any Business Day before the fifth Business Day prior to the Termination Date in such form as may be approved from time to time by the relevant Issuing Lender; provided that such Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such

issuance, (i) the L/C Obligations would exceed the L/C Commitment, (ii) the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed the Total Revolving Commitments or (iii) the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit to the Canadian Borrower would exceed US$150,000,000 or the Canadian Dollar Equivalent. Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated, at the relevant Borrower’s option, in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars and (ii) expire no later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance and (y) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Termination Date, provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for the automatic renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (y) above).

(b) An Issuing Lender shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if such issuance would conflict with, or cause such Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law.

3.2 Procedure for Issuance of Letter of Credit. A Borrower may from time to time request that the relevant Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to such Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified herein the relevant Application therefor, completed to the reasonable satisfaction of such Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as such Issuing Lender may reasonably request in accordance with its customary procedures. Upon receipt of any Application, the relevant Issuing Lender will process such Application and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall such Issuing Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than two Business Days after its receipt of the Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by such Issuing Lender and the applicable Borrower. Each Issuing Lender prior to its issuance of a Letter of Credit shall obtain confirmation from the Administrative Agent that after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the L/C Obligations would not exceed the L/C Commitment, (ii) the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would not exceed the Total Revolving Commitments and (iii) the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit to the Canadian Borrower would not exceed US$150,000,000 or the Canadian Dollar Equivalent thereof. Such Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the applicable Borrower promptly following the issuance thereof. Each Issuing Lender shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent, which shall in turn promptly furnish to the Revolving Lenders, notice of the issuance of each Letter of Credit (including the amount thereof). Upon request by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender shall report to the Administrative Agent the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding on any Business Day and such other information with respect to such Letters of Credit as may be requested.

3.3 Fees and Other Charges. (a) Each Borrower will pay a fee on all outstanding Letters of Credit issued for its account at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Loans, shared ratably among the Revolving Lenders and payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date after the issuance date and in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars based on the currency in which each such Letter of Credit is denominated. Such fee shall be calculated on the aggregate undrawn face amount of the outstanding Letters of Credit on a daily basis during each quarterly or other period for which payment is made. In addition, each Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee to be agreed upon with such Issuing Lender on the undrawn and unexpired amount of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender for it, payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date after the issuance date of such Letter of Credit.

(b) In addition to the foregoing fees, each Borrower shall pay or reimburse each Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by such Issuing Lender in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender for it.

3.4 L/C Participations. (a) Each Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce the Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees

to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from each Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions set forth below, for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage in each Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit and the amount of each draft paid by such Issuing Lender thereunder. Each L/C Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which the relevant Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the relevant Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Lender upon demand at such Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed.

(b) If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to the relevant Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit is paid to such Issuing Lender within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) (x) in the case of any such amount in US Dollars, at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (A) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate and (B) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for the period until such L/C Participant makes such amount immediately available or (y) in the case of any such amount in Canadian Dollars, at a rate per annum determined by the Administrative Agent (such determination to be conclusive and binding on such L/C Participant) in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s cost of funding the amount of such payment, for the period until such L/C Participant makes such amount immediately available to such Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360 (in the case of US Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit) or 365 (in the case of Canadian Dollar- denominated Letters of Credit). If any such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant pursuant to Section 3.4(a) is not made available to the relevant Issuing Lender by such L/C Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans (in the case of US Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit issued for the account of a US Borrower), US Base Rate Loans (in the case of US Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower), Canadian Prime Rate Loans (in the case of Canadian Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit issued for the account of a US Borrower and Canadian Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower). A certificate of the relevant Issuing Lender submitted to any L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(c) Whenever, at any time after the relevant Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(a), such Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from a Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by such Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, such Issuing Lender will distribute, through the Administrative Agent to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by such Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by such Issuing Lender, each such L/C Participant shall return to such Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by such Issuing Lender to it.

3.5 Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrowers. Each Borrower agrees to reimburse each Issuing Lender on the next Business Day after that on which such Issuing Lender notifies such Borrower of the date and amount of a draft presented under any Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower and paid by such Issuing Lender for the amount of (a) such draft so paid in the currency of such payment and (b) any Non-Excluded Taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses reasonably incurred by such Issuing Lender in connection with such payment. Each such payment shall be made to such Issuing Lender at its address for notices referred to herein in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars, as the case may be, and in immediately available funds. Interest shall

be payable on any such amounts from the date on which the relevant draft is paid until payment in full at the rate set forth in (i) until the Business Day next succeeding the date of the relevant notice, Section 2.16(c) in the case of US Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit issued for the account of a US Borrower, Section 2.16(b) in the case of US Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower, Section 2.16(d) in the case of Canadian Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit issued for the account of a US Borrower and in the case of Canadian Dollar-denominated Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower and (ii) thereafter, Section 2.16(f).

3.6 Obligations Absolute. Each Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that such Borrower may have or have had against any Issuing Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person. Each Borrower also agrees with each Issuing Lender that each Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for, and such Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among such Borrower 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 such Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee. No Issuing Lender shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Issuing Lender shall be responsible to the relevant Borrower or Borrowers for errors or omissions arising from such Issuing Lender’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its issuance or administration of the payment or non-payment made under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender or the related drafts or documents; provided that, each Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by an Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in good faith in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct and in accordance with the standards of care (the “Standards of Care”) specified in the Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as published from time to time by the International Chamber of Commerce, shall be binding on such Borrower and shall not result in any liability of such Issuing Lender to such Borrower. It is agreed that nothing in this paragraph shall relieve any Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant of any liability resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender or L/C Participant.

3.7 Letter of Credit Payments. If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower of the date and amount thereof. The responsibility of an Issuing Lender to a Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are in conformity with such Letter of Credit and complying with the Standards of Care.

(l) (i) any Person shall engage in any “prohibited transaction” (as defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) involving any Plan, (ii) any “accumulated funding deficiency” (as defined in Section 302 of ERISA), whether or not waived, shall exist with respect to any Plan or any Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan shall arise on the assets of the Parent Borrower or any Commonly Controlled Entity, (iii) a Reportable Event shall occur with respect to, or proceedings shall commence to have a trustee appointed, or a trustee shall be appointed, to administer or to terminate, any Single Employer Plan, which Reportable Event or commencement of proceedings or appointment of a trustee is reasonably likely to result in the termination of such Plan for purposes of Title IV of ERISA (other than pursuant to a standard termination pursuant to Section 4041(h) of ERISA), (iv) any Single Employer Plan shall terminate for purposes of Title IV of ERISA, (v) the Parent Borrower or any Commonly Controlled Entity shall, or is reasonably likely to, incur any liability in connection with a withdrawal from, or the Insolvency or Reorganization of, a Multiemployer Plan or (vi) any other event or condition shall occur or exist with respect to a Plan; and in each case in clauses (i) through (vi) above, such event or condition, together with all other such events or conditions, if any, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

(m) any of the Security Documents shall cease, for any reason (other than by reason of the express release thereof pursuant to the provisions of the Security Documents), to be in full force and effect in any material respect, or any Loan Party shall so assert in writing, or any Lien created by any of the Security Documents shall cease in any material respect to be enforceable and of the same effect and priority purported to be created thereby (with respect to any significant portion of the Collateral and other than by reason of the express release thereof pursuant to the provisions of the Security Documents), or any Loan Party shall so assert in writing; provided that there shall be no Event of Default under this clause (m) to the

extent such Event of Default arises from (A) the resignation of the Administrative Agent or (B) the negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent following a reasonable request from the Parent Borrower to execute any document or take any other action relating to such Security Document or the Liens granted thereunder; or

(n) a Change of Control shall occur;

then, upon the occurrence of any such event (other than an event with respect to a Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of this Section), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Borrowers, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times (provided, that, in the case of an Event of Default described in clause (d) above arising solely out of the breach of Section 7.1, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Majority Facility Lenders under the Revolving Facility shall, take such actions only with respect to the Revolving Facility): (i) terminate the Revolving Commitments, and thereupon the Revolving Commitments shall terminate immediately, and (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and payable), and thereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrowers accrued hereunder, shall become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by each Borrower; and in case of any event with respect to a Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of this Section, the Revolving Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrowers accrued hereunder, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by each Borrower.

With respect to all Bankers’ Acceptances which have not matured and L/C Obligations which are outstanding at the time the Administrative Agent takes any action pursuant to the paragraph above, or in case of any event with respect to a Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of this Section, the relevant Borrower shall, at such time, (i) with respect to outstanding Bankers’ Acceptances which have not matured, pay to the Administrative Agent in full and absolute satisfaction of such Obligations an amount of cash equal to the aggregate undiscounted face amount of all such unmatured Bankers’ Acceptances and, upon such payment being made, the Canadian Borrower shall have no further liability in respect of such Bankers’ Acceptances (except to the extent that any such payment is rescinded or reclaimed by operation of law or otherwise) and the Canadian Lenders shall be entitled to all benefits of, and will make and otherwise be responsible for all payments due to the redeeming holder or any third parties under, such Bankers’ Acceptances, and (ii) with respect to outstanding L/C Obligations, deposit in a non-interest bearing account opened by the Administrative Agent, an amount of cash equal to such outstanding L/C Obligations, which amount held in such account shall be held as collateral security for such Borrower’s Obligations with respect to the related Letters of Credit, and any remaining amounts in such account, after satisfaction of all Obligations in respect of such L/C Obligations, shall be returned to such Borrower. Each Borrower shall execute such security documents with respect to amounts so held in respect of such L/C Obligations as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably require.

SECTION 9. THE AGENTS

9.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as, to the extent appropriate, the agent of such Lender under this Agreement and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.

9.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

9.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (a) liable to any of the Lenders for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement (except to the extent that any of the foregoing result from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Borrower or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agents under or in connection with, this Agreement or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or for any failure of any Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrowers.

9.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, e-mail message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent in the relevant Register. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, the relevant Majority Facility Lenders or all of the Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, the relevant Majority Facility Lenders or all of the Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

9.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all 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 or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

9.6 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial

and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrowers and their affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrowers and their affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrowers that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

9.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), ratably according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 9.7, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, the Loans, this Agreement, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that result from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

9.8 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity.

9.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent upon 10 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrowers. If (i) the Administrative Agent shall resign as the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 8(h) or 8(i) with respect to a Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Parent Borrower (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) or (ii) if no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 10 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, such retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor agent, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 8(h) or 8(i) with respect to a Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Parent Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); then, in either case, the successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent becomes effective the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

9.10 Co-Documentation Agents and Syndication Agent. Neither the Co-Documentation Agents nor the Syndication Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities hereunder in their capacities as such.

9.11 Québec. (a) For greater certainty, and without limiting the powers of the Administrative Agent or any other Person acting as an agent, attorney-in-fact or mandatary for the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents, each Lender, hereby (a) irrevocably constitutes, to the extent necessary, the Administrative Agent as the holder of an irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec) for the purposes of holding any Liens, including hypothecs, granted or to be granted by any Borrower or any Guarantor on movable or immovable property pursuant to the laws of the Province of Québec to secure obligations of any Borrower or any Guarantor under any bond issued by any Borrower or any Guarantor; (b) appoints and agrees that the Administrative Agent, acting as agent for the Lenders, may act as the bondholder and mandatary with respect to any bond that may be issued and pledged from time to time for the benefit of the Lenders; and (c) ratifies and confirms all acts performed prior to the execution of this agreement by the Administrative Agent in such capacities.

(b) The said constitution of the fondé de pouvoir (within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec) as the holder of such irrevocable power of attorney and of the Administrative Agent as bondholder and mandatary with respect to any bond that may be issued and pledged from time to time for the benefit of the Lenders shall be deemed to have been ratified and confirmed by any Assignee by the execution of an Assignment and Assumption.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 32 of An Act respecting the special powers of legal persons (Québec), the Administrative Agent may purchase, acquire and be the holder of any bond issued by any Borrower or any Guarantor. Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby acknowledges that any such bond shall constitute a title of indebtedness, as such term is used in Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec.

(d) The Administrative Agent herein appointed as fondé de pouvoir shall have the same rights, powers and immunities as the Agents as stipulated in this Article IX, which shall apply mutatis mutandis. Without limitation, the provisions of Section 9.9 of this Agreement shall apply mutatis mutandis to the resignation and appointment of a successor to the Administrative Agent acting as fondé de pouvoir.

SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Amendments and Waivers. (a) This Agreement and the terms hereof may not be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1. The Required Lenders (or, in respect of any waiver, amendment or modification of Section 7.1, the Majority Facility Lenders under the Revolving Facility rather than the Required Lenders) and the Borrowers may, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders (or, in respect of any waiver, amendment or modification of Section 7.1, the Majority Facility Lenders under the Revolving Facility rather than the Required Lenders), the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent may, from time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders hereunder or (b) waive, on such terms and conditions as may be specified in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (i) forgive the principal amount or extend the scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, extend the date of any scheduled amortization payment in respect of any Term Loans, reduce the stated rate of any interest or fee payable hereunder (except in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates (which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Majority Facility Lenders of each adversely affected Facility)) or extend the date of any scheduled payment thereof, or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Lender’s Revolving Commitment, in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; (ii) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this Section 10.1 without the written consent of such Lender; (iii) reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, consent to the assignment or transfer by a Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (except as contemplated by Section 7.4), release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release the Parent Borrower or the Subsidiary Borrower from its guarantee obligations under the US Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their obligations under the US Guarantee and Collateral

Agreement or the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, as the case may be, in each case without the written consent of all Lenders; (iv) reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Majority Facility Lenders with respect to any Facility without the written consent of all Lenders under such Facility; (v) amend, modify or waive Section 8(g) as it may relate to a Default or Event of Default arising from the Revolving Facility being in default as a result of a breach of Section 7.1 without the written consent of the Majority Facility Lenders under the Tranche B Term Facility and any Incremental Facility; (vi) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 9 without the written consent of the Administrative Agent; (vii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.8 or 2.9 without the written consent of each then Swingline Lender; or (viii) amend, modify or waive any relevant provision of Section 3 without the written consent of each then Issuing Lender. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Borrowers, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Borrowers, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

(b) In connection with any proposed amendment, supplement, modification, waiver or termination (a “Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of all affected Lenders, if the consent of the holders of more than 50% of the sum of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans then outstanding and the Total Revolving Commitments then in effect or, if the Revolving Commitments have been terminated, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit then outstanding to such Proposed Change is obtained, but the consent to such Proposed Change of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in this Section 10.1(b) being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as the Lender that is acting as the Administrative Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, at any Borrower’s request, any assignee that is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (and that is not a Non-Consenting Lender) shall have the right, with the prior consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank (which consent (x) shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (y) in the case of any consent required by any Issuing Bank, shall be deemed to have been given in the event that such Issuing Bank fails to respond in writing to a request for consent within two Business Days of receipt thereof), to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lender, and such Non-Consenting Lender agrees that it shall, upon such Borrower’s request, sell and assign to such assignee, at no expense to such Non-Consenting Lender (including with respect to any processing and recordation fees that may be applicable pursuant to Section 10.6(e), which shall be paid by the assignee or the Parent Borrower), all the Term Loans and the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Exposure of such Non-Consenting Lender for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Term Loans and Revolving Loans (and funded participations in Swingline Loans and unreimbursed L/C Obligations) held by such Non-Consenting Lender and all accrued interest, fees and other amounts with respect thereto through the date of sale (including amounts under Sections 2.19, 2.20 and 2.21), such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed Assignment and Acceptance in accordance with Section 10.6(c) (which Assignment and Acceptance need not be signed by such Non-Consenting Lender).

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (i) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder (including the refinancing thereof) and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and Revolving Extensions of Credit and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (ii) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and Majority Facility Lenders.

Subsidiaries (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided, that no Borrower shall have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities (i) are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction (or a settlement tantamount thereto) to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or material breach of this Agreement of or by, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be (or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, agents and advisors), (ii) are incurred by a Lender and result from a sale by such Lender of its Loan for a price less than par or the price paid by such Lender to purchase such Loan or (iii) result from claims made or legal proceedings commenced against the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates or any Lender or any of its Affiliates by any security holder or creditor thereof arising out of and based upon rights afforded any such security holder or creditor solely in its capacity as such. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in clause (c) above, a Borrower shall not have any obligation under this Section 10.5 to the Administrative Agent, any of its Affiliates or any Lender or any of its Affiliates with respect to any tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee deduction or withholding imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower agrees not to assert and to cause its

Subsidiaries not to assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws applicable to the operations of the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective real properties, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee. All amounts due under this Section 10.5 shall be payable not later than 10 days after written demand therefor. Statements payable by a Borrower pursuant to this Section 10.5 shall be submitted to ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Assistant Treasurer (Telephone No.: (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇; Facsimile No.: (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇), at the address of the Parent Borrower set forth in Section 10.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by such Borrower in a written notice to the Administrative Agent. The agreements in this Section 10.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

10.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, all future holders of the Loans and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Lender (except for any assignment by the Subsidiary Borrower or the Canadian Borrower as permitted by Section 7.4) and Lenders may sell participations in or assign all or any part of their rights and obligations in respect of Loans only as provided in paragraphs (b) and (c) below, respectively, or pursuant to Section 2.23.

(b) Any Lender other than any Conduit Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers, in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, a “Participant”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Revolving Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender hereunder (provided, that unless an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or 8(b), or Section 8(h) or 8(i) (with respect to a Borrower), has occurred and is continuing, any Participant in a Canadian Loan and/or Letter of Credit made available to, or for the account of, the Canadian Borrower, shall, at all times, comply with Section 2.21(c)). In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan for all purposes under this Agreement, and the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. In no event shall any Participant under any such participation have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or any consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees payable hereunder, or postpone the date of the final maturity of the Loans, in each case to the extent subject to such participation. Each Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement

and the Loans are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement, provided that, in purchasing such participating interest, neither such Participant, on the one hand, nor the Borrowers nor the Administrative Agent, on the other hand, shall have any rights against or obligations to one another, nor shall any of them be required to deal directly with one another in respect of, the participation of such Participant. Each Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.20, 2.21 and 2.22 with respect to its participation in the Revolving Commitments and the Loans outstanding from time to time as if it was a Lender; provided that, in the case of Section 2.21, such Participant shall have complied with the requirements of said Section as if it were a Lender and provided, further, that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to any such Section than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Lender to such Participant had no such transfer occurred. For the avoidance of doubt, no Lender shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to Section 2.21 as a result of the transfer of a participation to a Participant than such Lender would have been entitled to receive absent such transfer.

(c) Any Lender other than any Conduit Lender (an “Assignor”) shall be permitted to assign, in accordance with applicable law, all or a portion of its Loans and Revolving Commitments hereunder to an Eligible Assignee (an “Assignee”) with the consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, of (a) the Parent Borrower, unless (i) the Assignee is a Lender or a Lender Affiliate or (ii) an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or 8(b), or Section 8(h) or 8(i) (with respect to a Borrower), has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent, unless, in the case of a Term Loan, the Assignee is a Lender or Lender Affiliate, and (c) each Issuing Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, executed by such Assignee, such Assignor and any other Person whose consent is required pursuant to this paragraph, and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the relevant Register (it being understood and agreed that (A) such Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in which the Assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Parent Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws and (B) unless an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or 8(b), or Section 8(h) or 8(i) (with respect to a Borrower), has occurred and is continuing, any Assignee of a Canadian Loan and/or Letter of Credit made available to, or for the account of, the Canadian Borrower, shall, at all times, comply with Section 2.21(c)); provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, no Lender shall be entitled, without the consent of the Parent Borrower, to make an assignment under this Section 10.6(c) if such assignment would increase the cost of any Facility to any Borrower, including without limitation under Section 2.20 or 2.21, as of the date of such assignment or if, as of the date of such assignment, such assignment would increase the cost of the Facility to any Borrower in the foreseeable future. Any such assignment need not be ratable as among the Facilities. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with a Revolving Commitment and/or Loans as set forth therein, and (y) the Assignor thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of an Assignor’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Assignor shall cease to be a party hereto). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign at any time to its designating Lender hereunder without the consent of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent any or all of the Loans it may have funded hereunder and pursuant to its designation agreement and without regard to the limitations set forth in the first sentence of this Section 10.6(c).

(d) The Administrative Agent shall, on behalf of the Borrowers, maintain at its address referred to in Section 10.2 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register (each, a “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Revolving Commitment of, and the principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time. The entries in each Register shall constitute prima facie evidence of the same, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in each Register as the owner of the Loans and any Notes evidencing the Loans recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. Any assignment of any Loan, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the relevant Register (and each Note shall expressly so provide). Any assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan evidenced by a Note shall be registered on the relevant Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the Note evidencing such Loan, accompanied by a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance, and thereupon one or more new Notes may be issued to the designated Assignee, if requested by such Assignee.

(e) Except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, a Lender Affiliate or a Conduit Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Commitments or Loans under any Facility, the amount of the Revolving Commitments or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than US$5,000,000 (or, in the case of the Tranche B Term Facility and the Incremental Term Facility, US$1,000,000) unless the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that (1) no such consent of the Parent Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Lender Affiliates or Conduit Lenders, if any.

(f) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance in conformity with Section 10.6(c), executed by an Assignor, an Assignee and any other Person whose consent is required by Section 10.6(c), together with payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of US$3,500, the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) record the information contained therein in the relevant Register on the effective date determined pursuant thereto.

(g) For avoidance of doubt the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this Section 10.6 concerning assignments relate only to absolute assignments and that such provisions do not prohibit the granting of security, including any pledge or assignment by a Lender to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable law; provided that the foreclosure on any such pledged Loan shall be subject to the provisions regarding restrictions on assignments contained in this Section 10.6.

(h) Each Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in paragraph (g) above.

(i) Each Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent each hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance.

10.7 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall, after the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, have the right, without prior notice to any Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by any Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in

each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of such Borrower. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with each Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

10.9 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.

10.10 Integration. This Agreement represents the entire agreement of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein.

10.11 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

10.12 Submission to Jurisdiction; Appointment of Process Agent; Waivers. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York;

(b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

(c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, (i) in the case of the Canadian Borrower, the address of the Subsidiary Borrower set forth in Section 10.2 with a copy to the Canadian Borrower’s address set forth in Section 10.2 or (ii) in the case of each other party, to its address set forth in Section 10.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto; and

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to ▇▇▇ in any other jurisdiction.

10.13 Judgment Currency. If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert any amount owing or payable to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under this Agreement from the currency in which it is due (the “Agreed Currency”) into a particular currency (the “Judgment Currency”), the rate of exchange applied in that conversion shall be that at which the Administrative Agent, in accordance with its normal procedures, could purchase the Agreed Currency with the Judgment Currency at or about noon on the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which judgment is given. The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any amount owing or payable under this Agreement to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in the Agreed Currency shall, notwithstanding any judgment and payment in the Judgment Currency, be satisfied only

to the extent that the Administrative Agent, in accordance with its normal procedures, could purchase the Agreed Currency with the amount of the Judgment Currency so paid at or about noon on the next Business Day following that payment; and if the amount of the Agreed Currency which the Administrative Agent could so purchase is less than the amount originally due in the Agreed Currency, such Borrower shall, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding the judgment or payment, indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders against any loss.

10.14 Risks of Superior Force. Each Borrower expressly assumes all risks of superior force, such that it shall be bound to timely execute each and every of its obligations under this Agreement notwithstanding the existence or occurrence of any event or circumstance constituting a superior force within the meaning of article 1693 of the Civil Code of Québec.

10.15 Language. The parties hereto agree that this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and all agreements and documents entered into in connection herewith or pursuant hereto shall be drawn up in English only. Les parties confirment qu’elles ont convenu que ce document ainsi que tous les autres documents ou contrats s’y rattachant soient redigés en anglais seulement.

10.16 Acknowledgements. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that:

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement;

(b) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders do not have any fiduciary relationship with or duty to such Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, and the relationship between the Administrative Agent and Lenders, on one hand, and such Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of creditor and debtor; and

(c) no joint venture is created hereby or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders or among the Borrowers and the Lenders.

10.17 Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall hold all non-public information obtained pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or obtained by them based on a review of the books and records of the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in accordance with their customary procedures for handling confidential information of this nature, but may make disclosure to any of their examiners, regulators (including the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions), Affiliates, outside auditors, counsel and other professional advisors in connection with this Agreement or as reasonably required by any potential bona fide Participant or Assignee, or in connection with the exercise of remedies under a Loan Document, or as requested by any Governmental Authority or pursuant to legal process or to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender; provided, however, that (1) unless specifically prohibited by Requirement of Law or court order, the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall promptly notify the Parent Borrower of any request by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with an examination of the Administrative Agent or Lender by such Governmental Authority) for disclosure of any such non-public information, where practicable, prior to disclosure of such information; (2) prior to any such disclosure pursuant to this Section 10.17, the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, shall require any bona fide Participant and Assignee receiving a disclosure of non-public information to agree in writing (a) to be bound in a manner similar to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Section 10.17; and (b) to require such Person to require any other Person to whom such Person discloses such non-public information to be similarly bound; (3) disclosure may, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower, be made by any Lender to any direct or indirect contractual counter parties of such Lender in Hedge Agreements or such contractual counter parties’ professional advisors; provided that such contractual counter party or professional advisor agrees in writing to keep such information confidential to the same extent required of the Lenders hereunder; and (4) except as may be required by an order of a court of competent jurisdiction and to the extent set forth therein, no Lender shall be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary.

Each Lender acknowledges that information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents may include material non-public information concerning the Parent Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities, and confirms that it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and that it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with those procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws.

All information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public information about the Parent Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it has identified in its administrative questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws.

10.18 WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL. EACH BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

Schedule 4.18: Environmental Matters

Prince ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Saskatchewan

The Government of Saskatchewan may require that the facility be decommissioned. (The facility is now in inactive status). In that event, the Government may require active remediation for several areas at the facility.

Weyerhaeuser submitted a “Preliminary Decommissioning and Reclamation Plan, Prince ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Pulp and Paper Mill” to Saskatchewan Environment in December 2006. The Plan states that the site decommissioning and reclamation estimated cost ranges from Cdn. $20 to $25 million. This estimate does not take into account the equipment resale value or scrap material value which is considered to be significant, and is subject to numerous contingencies and unknowns. This estimate does not include the cost of completing a phase II Environmental Site Assessment.

The Government of Saskatchewan is responsible for liability from contamination prior to 1986.

Our opinions in paragraphs 3, 4, 5, 6 (other than subparagraph (e)) and 7, set forth above are subject to the effects of (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, reorganization and moratorium laws and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights or remedies generally, (ii) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), (iii) limitations on the validity or enforceability of indemnification, contribution or exculpation under applicable law (including court decisions) or public policy and (iv) possible judicial action giving effect to foreign laws or foreign governmental or judicial action affecting or relating to the rights or remedies of creditors. In addition, applicable laws and interpretations may affect the validity or enforceability of certain provisions of the Loan Documents, but such limitations do not, in our opinion, make the remedies provided for therein inadequate for the practical realization of the principal benefits intended to be provided thereby (subject to the other qualifications expressed herein).

Without limiting the foregoing, we express no opinion as to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any provision in Section 9.11 or 10.14 of the Credit Agreement or in Section 8.17 of the US Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any provision of any Loan Document that purports to (i) prohibit any Loan Party from transferring its respective rights in the collateral described in the Loan Documents or any proceeds thereof, as contemplated by Section 9-401 of the UCC, (ii) permit the Agent to vote or otherwise exercise any rights with respect to any of the collateral under the Loan Documents absent compliance with the requirements of applicable laws and regulations as to the voting of or other exercise of rights with respect to such collateral, (iii) waive, release or vary any defense, right or privilege of, or any duties owing to, any Loan Party to the extent that such waiver, release or variation may be limited by Section 1-102(3), 9-602 or 9-603 of the UCC or other provisions of applicable law, (iv) grant a right to collect any amount that a court determines to constitute unearned interest, (v) grant any right of set-off with respect to any contingent or unmatured obligation, or to permit any Person purchasing a participation from a Lender to exercise set-off rights with respect to such participation, (vi) maintain or impose any obligation to pay any amount in U.S. dollars or any other specified currency, or specify any rate or method of exchange, where a final judgment concerning such obligation is rendered in another currency, (vii) constitute a waiver of inconvenient forum or improper venue or (viii) relate to the subject matter jurisdiction of a court to adjudicate any controversy.

We express no opinion as to the creation, validity or perfection of any security interest, or the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any Loan Document, to the extent that such Loan Document grants or purports to grant (a) a security interest (i) that is not governed by the UCC (including but not limited to any such security interest with respect to (A) copyrights, copyright licenses, patents, patent licenses, trademarks and trademark

licenses or (B) insurance policies), (ii) in commercial tort claims, letter-of-credit rights, fixtures, cooperative interests, farm products, as-extracted collateral or timber to be cut, (iii) in any property the terms of or governing which void or prohibit, or are violated by, the granting of such security interest or (iv) in any claim against the United States, (b) a mortgage or other interest in real property, (c) an agricultural lien or (d) the security interest referred to in Sections 2.13(d) and (f) of the Credit Agreement and the last paragraph of Section 8 of the Credit Agreement. Our opinions set forth in paragraph 7 above are limited to Articles 8 and 9 of the UCC and therefore do not address (i) laws of jurisdictions other than the State of New York, (ii) laws of the State of New York other than Articles 8 and 9 of the UCC or (iii) collateral of a type not subject to Article 9 of the UCC. We express no opinion as to what law governs perfection of any security interest granted by the Loan Documents. We have assumed with your permission that (i) none of the Secured Parties has waived, subordinated or agreed with any third party to any modification of the perfection or priority of any security interest granted by the Loan Documents, (ii) the Pledged Stock and all collateral under the Loan Documents in which a security interest may be perfected by possession will be held at all times by the Agent in the State of New York and (iii) each Loan Party has sufficient rights in the collateral described in the Loan Documents for the security interests granted thereby to attach. We express no opinion as to the title or any other interest of any Loan Party in or to any of the collateral described in the Loan Documents. No security interest will exist with respect to after-acquired property of any Loan Party until such Loan Party has rights therein within the meaning of Section 9-203 of the UCC.

Except as set forth in paragraph 7 above, we express no opinion as to the validity or perfection of the security interests purported to be created by the Loan Documents. We express no opinion as to the validity, perfection or priority of such security interests:

with respect to collateral sold, exchanged or otherwise disposed of by any Loan Party;

to the extent such security interests may be affected by (x) Se▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ankruptcy Code, under which a bankruptcy court has discretion as to the extent to which post-petition proceeds may be subject to a lien arising from a security agreement entered into by the debtor before the commencement of the case, or (y) Section 547(b) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, relating to the power to avoid a preference;

with respect to proceeds, to the extent of limitations under Section 9-315 of the UCC on the perfection of a security interest in proceeds;

as to any collateral acquired by the party granting such security interest more than four months after such party changes its name so as to make the relevant financing statements seriously misleading, unless amendments to such financing statements indicating the new name of such party are properly filed before the expiration of such four months;

as to any collateral acquired by any Loan Party following any change in the jurisdiction of organization (within the meaning of Section 9-102(a)(50) of the UCC) of such Loan Party unless a new financing statement is properly filed in the applicable new jurisdiction within the time specified in Section 9-316 of the UCC;

as to any property subject to a statute, regulation or treaty of the United States, whose requirements for a security interest’s obtaining priority over the rights of a lien creditor with respect to such property preempt Section 9-310(a) of the UCC;

as to any goods that are an accession to, or commingled or processed with, other goods, to the extent limited by Section 9-335 or 9-336 of the UCC; or

JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.,

Each of the Lenders

named in Schedule I

as to goods of any kind, such as motor vehicles, subject to certificate of title statutes.

We call to your attention that (A) the UCC requires periodic filing of continuation statements in order to maintain the effectiveness of financing statements filed pursuant thereto, (B) Section 8-107 of the UCC may in certain circumstances limit the rights of a secured party in respect of any unauthorized endorsement with respect to certificated securities constituting collateral under the Loan Documents not registered in the name of or issued to the Agent and not originally issued in bearer form, (C) under certain circumstances Section 9-408 of the UCC limits the enforcement of security interests in promissory notes, health-care-insurance receivables and general intangibles and (D) the perfection of the security interests granted by the Loan Documents may be limited by (i) rights under Article 2 of the UCC of a seller of goods as to which the debtor does not yet have possession, (ii) the right of reservation of a seller of goods under Section 2-505 of the UCC, (iii) the right of reclamation of a seller of goods on credit under Section 2-702 of the UCC, (iv) rights of buyers and lessees in the ordinary course to take goods free of such security interests to the extent provided in Sections 9-320 and 9-321 of the UCC, (v) rights of licensees in the ordinary course of business to license general intangibles free of such security interest to the extent provided in Section 9-321 of the UCC and (vi) rights of a purchaser of chattel paper and instruments to claim priority over such security interests to the extent provided in Section 9-330 of the UCC.

We express no opinion as to the priority of the security interests purported to be created by the Loan Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, we express no opinion as to the priority of any security interest (i) as against any claims or liens in favor of the United States or any state thereof, or any federal or state agency, instrumentality or political subdivision, including but not limited to liens for payment of federal, state or local taxes that are given priority by operation of law, liens under Title IV of the Employee Retirement Security Act of 1974, as amended, or claims arising under 31 U.S.C. § 3713, (ii) as against any rights of a person in possession of proceeds consisting of money or “instruments” (as defined in Section 9-102(a)(47) of the UCC), (iii) as against liens under Section 4-208 of the UCC, relating to security interests of a collecting bank, (iv) as against liens granted under Section 364(d) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, relating to liens granted by a court after the commencement of a case or (v) that has been perfected by “control” under Sections 8-106, 9-104, 9-105, 9-106 or 9-107 of the UCC, as against any other security interest in the same property that has also been perfected by “control.”

We express no opinion as to the effect of, or compliance with, any United States federal or state laws regarding fraudulent transfers or fraudulent conveyances or laws governing preferential transfers, or provisions of state law restricting dividends, loans or other distributions by a corporation to or for the benefit of its stockholders, or any federal or state securities laws, rules or regulations, including without limitation as to the effect thereof on the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents.

For purposes of the opinion set forth in paragraph 6 (other than subparagraph (e)) above as to any judgment, order or decree referred to therein, we have endeavored, to the extent we have believed necessary, to determine from lawyers currently in our firm who have performed substantive legal services for the Loan Parties whether such services involved substantive attention in the form of legal representation concerning any order of the nature referred to in such paragraph 6. We have not made any review, search or investigation of the public files or records with respect to any such order or other action or proceeding. In rendering the opinion in paragraph 6(e), we do not express any opinion as to any computation of any financial ratio, covenant or measurement under any Contract, or as to compliance with any financial ratio, covenant or measurement contained in any Contract.

We express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of New York, the DGCL, the DLLCA and the Federal laws of the United States of America, in each case that in our experience are generally applicable to transactions of this type. In particular (and without limiting the generality of the foregoing) we express no opinion as to the laws of any country (other than the Federal laws of the United States

of America) or the effect of such laws (whether limiting, prohibitive or otherwise) on any of the rights or obligations of any Loan Party or of any other party to or beneficiary of any of the Loan Documents. We have assumed, with your permission, that the execution and delivery of each of the Loan Documents by each of the parties thereto and the performance of their respective obligations thereunder will not be illegal or unenforceable or violate any fundamental public policy under applicable law (other than the laws of the State of New York and Federal laws of the United States of America), and that no such party has entered therein with the intent of avoiding or a view to violating applicable law. In giving the foregoing opinion, we express no opinion as to the effect (if any) of any law of any jurisdiction (except the State of New York) in which any Lender is located that limits the rate of interest that such Lender may charge or collect.

The opinions expressed herein are given solely as of the date hereof and are solely for your benefit. Without our prior consent, neither our opinion or this opinion letter may be disclosed publicly to or relied upon by any other person. This opinion may be furnished to, but not relied upon by (i) any person that purchases an interest in or a participation in the Loans and (ii) any auditor or regulatory authority having jurisdiction over a Lender or otherwise pursuant to court order or judicial process. This opinion letter is limited to the matters stated and no opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated herein.

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

RE:

Domtar Inc. (“Domtar”) and 4388216 Canada Inc. (“4388216”)

This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to the credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) dated as of March 7, 2007 among, inter alia, Domtar Corporation, Domtar Paper Company, LLC and Domtar, as Borrowers, the Lenders from time to time parties thereto, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Senior Funding Inc., as Syndication Agent, and ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent.

We have acted as counsel to Domtar and 4388216 (each, a “Canadian Loan Party” and collectively the “Canadian Loan Parties”) in connection with the execution and delivery of the Credit Documents (as hereinafter defined). Capitalized terms used in this opinion which are defined in the Credit Agreement have herein the respective meanings therein specified unless the context of this opinion otherwise requires or unless such terms are otherwise defined in this opinion.

In connection therewith, we have examined original executed copies or copies certified to our satisfaction of the following documents:

(a)

the Credit Agreement;

(b)

a Canadian guarantee and collateral agreement (the “Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement”) entered into on March 7, 2007 by the Canadian Loan Parties and the other parties thereto in favour of ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank, N.A., Toronto Branch (in such capacity, the “Canadian Administrative Agent”) for the benefit of the Canadian Lenders (as defined therein);

(c)

a deed of hypothec (the “Deed of Hypothec”) entered into on March 7, 2007 before Mtre ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Notary, by the Canadian Loan Parties and other grantors in favour of the Canadian Administrative Agent, as fondé de pouvoir as contemplated in Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec (the “Civil Code”) (in such capacity, the “Attorney”);

(d)

a collateral bond (the “Bond”) in the principal amount of Cdn$400,000,000 dated March 7, 2007, represented by certificate No. 1, issued under the Deed of Hypothec by Domtar to the order of the Canadian Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties (as defined in the hereinafter defined Pledge Agreement);

(e)

a bond pledge agreement (the “Pledge Agreement”) dated as of March 7, 2007 granted by Domtar in favour of the Secured Parties (as defined therein) pledging and hypothecating the Bond for an amount of Cdn$400,000,000.

(the Hypothec, the Bond and the Pledge Agreement are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Quebec Credit Documents”; the Quebec Credit Documents and the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Canadian Credit Documents”; the Canadian Credit Documents and the Credit Agreement are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Credit Documents”; and each guarantor and grantor under the Canadian Credit Documents, including each of the Canadian Loan Parties, is hereinafter referred to as a “Loan Party” and collectively the “Loan Parties”);

(f)

the certificates and articles of incorporation and by-laws of each of the Canadian Loan Parties;

(g)

certificates of compliance dated March 2, 2007 issued pursuant to the Canada Business Corporations Act in respect of each of the Canadian Loan Parties (the “Certificates of Compliance”);

(h)

a certificate of attestation dated March 1, 2007 issued in respect of 4388216 Canada Inc. and a certificate of attestation dated March 2, 2007 issued in respect of Domtar, in each case pursuant to the Loi sur la publicité légale des entreprises individuelles, des sociétés et des personnes ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (collectively, the “Certificates of Attestation”);

(i)

a certified copy of the resolutions of the board of directors of each of the Canadian Loan Parties authorizing the execution and delivery of, inter alia, the Credit Documents to which each of the foregoing is a party;

(j)

certificates of incumbency and specimen signatures in respect of each of the Canadian Loan Parties;

(k)

a certificate of officers of Domtar as to certain matters of fact dated of even date, a copy of which is attached hereto as Schedule I; and

(l)

the following documents, namely:

•

a Trust Indenture dated August 5, 1987 between Domtar and Montreal Trust Company with respect to the 10.85% Debentures due 2017; and

•

a Trust Indenture dated April 15, 1987 between Domtar and Montreal Trust Company with respect to the 10% Debentures due 2011;

(collectively referred to herein as the “Trust Indentures”).

We have examined such public and corporate records and certificates (including officers’ certificates), conducted searches and considered such questions of law as we have considered necessary or appropriate on the basis of the opinions hereinafter expressed. We have relied, without independent verification or investigation, on all statements as to matters of fact contained in such documents.

In our examination of such documents and information, we have assumed:

the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of all individuals, the authenticity and completeness of all documents and instruments submitted to us as originals, the conformity to originals of all documents submitted to us as facsimiles or copies, certified or otherwise, thereof and the authenticity of the originals of such facsimiles or copies;

the currency, completeness, truth and accuracy of all facts set forth in the official public records, certificates and documents supplied by public officials or otherwise conveyed to us by public officials;

the currency, completeness, truth and accuracy of the corporate records of the Canadian Loan Parties and of any other records, certificates or documents examined by us or supplied to us by an officer of any of the Canadian Loan Parties, as well as the accuracy and correctness of all facts set forth or reflected therein;

that each of the parties to the Credit Documents, other than the Canadian Loan Parties, is duly formed and validly subsisting under its governing laws, and has all requisite capacity, power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Credit Documents to which it is a party and has taken all necessary actions to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by it of the Credit Documents to which it is a party, and that neither the execution, delivery or performance of the Credit Documents to which each is a party, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, conflict with or result in a breach of its respective constating documents and by-laws or contravenes to any laws applicable to it;

that each party thereto other than the Canadian Loan Parties has duly executed and delivered the Credit Documents to which it is a party;

that the Credit Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the parties thereto and is enforceable in accordance with its terms against each of them respectively, as the case may be;

the parties to the Canadian Credit Documents have not agreed, orally or in writing, to postpone the time for attachment of any security interest expressed to have been created by the Canadian Credit Documents; and

the property and assets subject to the security interests created by the Canadian Credit Documents do not include consumer goods (as defined in the Personal Property Security Act (Ontario) (the “PPSA”)).

With respect to our opinion in paragraph 6(iii) below, (a) we have relied on the certificate of officers of Domtar referred to in paragraph (k) above as to the matters of fact referred to therein and (b) we have assumed that all borrowings to be made after the date hereof by Domtar under the Credit Agreement from time to time (to the extent our opinion applies to any such borrowings) have or will be designated or deemed to be designated as a Short Term Borrowing pursuant to and in accordance with Sections 2.5 and 2.9 of the Credit Agreement, have been or will be incurred in connection with the funding of a Purchase Money Obligation, as defined under the Trust Indentures, or have been or will be otherwise incurred by Domtar in compliance with all applicable debt incurrence restrictions under Section 1011 of each of the Trust Indentures and in which latter case we have also assumed that at such time, after giving effect to the borrowing, the incurrence of liabilities by the Loan Parties who are Restricted Subsidiaries, as defined under the Trust Indentures, under the Canadian Credit Documents to which they are a party does not and will not result in the combined aggregate amounts of liabilities permitted under Section 1012(e) of each of the Trust Indentures to be exceeded. We have further assumed that at the time of each borrowing by Domtar under the Credit Agreement, after giving effect thereto, Domtar and the Loan Parties which are Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the Trust Indentures) will also be in compliance with the debt incurrence restrictions under Section 1008(vii) of each of the Trust Indentures.

The opinions expressed herein extend only to the laws of the Provinces of Quebec and Ontario and the laws of Canada applicable therein as of the date of this opinion. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, we do not purport to express any opinion herein concerning laws of any other jurisdiction to the extent that those laws may govern the validity, perfection, effect of perfection or non-perfection or enforcement of the hypothecs and security interests created by the Credit Documents including, without limitation, as a result of the application of Ontario or Quebec conflict of law rules. In addition, we express no opinion whether, pursuant to those conflict of law rules, Ontario or Quebec law would govern the validity, perfection, effect of perfection or non-perfection or enforcement of those security interests. We undertake no, and hereby expressly disclaim any, obligation to advise you of any change in any matters set forth herein.

We confirm your advice to us that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Binch ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP has filed the financing statements referred to in Schedule II hereto under the PPSA and will be causing the hypothecs created under the Deed of Hypothec to be registered at the Register of Personal and Movable Real Rights (the “RPMRR”).

Based on the foregoing, but subject to the qualifications set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:

Each of the Canadian Loan Parties is a corporation incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act (Canada) and, based solely on the Certificates of Compliance, is not discontinued, has not been dissolved and has sent the required annual returns and has paid all fees required under the said Act;

Based solely on the Certificates of Attestation, each of the Canadian Loan Parties is registered under an Act respecting the legal publicity of sole proprietorships, partnerships and legal persons (Quebec) (the “Publicity Act”), is not in default to file an annual declaration pursuant to the Publicity Act, is not in default to comply with a request made to it under Section 38 of the Publicity Act and is not in the process of dissolving;

Each of the Canadian Loan Parties has the requisite corporate power and capacity to execute and deliver each of the Credit Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations thereunder;

The execution and delivery by each of the Canadian Loan Parties of the Credit Documents to which it is a party and the performance by each of the Canadian Loan Parties of its obligations under the Credit Documents to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated therein have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of each of the Canadian Loan Parties;

The Bond has been duly issued by Domtar in accordance with the terms of the Deed of Hypothec;

Neither the execution and delivery by each of the Canadian Loan Parties of the Credit Documents to which it is a party nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated therein will:

(i)

conflict with, violate, result in a breach of any provision of the respective articles or by-laws of the Canadian Loan Parties,

(ii)

conflict with, violate or result in a breach of, the laws or regulations in force in the Provinces of Quebec and Ontario of general application applicable to the Canadian Loan Parties; or

(iii)

conflict with, violate or result in the breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of any of the Trust Indentures;

As a matter of corporate law, the Credit Agreement has been duly executed by Domtar;

Each of the Credit Documents (other than the Credit Agreement) has been duly executed and delivered by each Canadian Loan Party, to the extent that it is a party thereto;

Each of the Canadian Credit Documents constitutes legal, valid and binding obligations of each of the Loan Parties which is a party thereto and, subject to the registration of the hypothecs contained in the Deed of Hypothec in the RPMRR, enforceable against each of them, in accordance with its terms;

10.

The Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement creates a security interest in favour of the Canadian Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Canadian Lenders (as defined therein), in the Collateral (as defined therein) subject to the security interest granted by of the Grantors (as such expression is defined in the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) to which the PPSA applies and in which each of the said Grantors now has rights and is sufficient to create a security interest in favour of the Canadian Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Canadian Lenders, in any such Collateral in which each said Grantor hereafter acquires rights when those rights are so acquired in each case to secure payment and performance of the obligations described therein as being secured thereby;

11.

Each of the hypothecs granted pursuant to the Deed of Hypothec by each of the Loan parties which is a party thereto constitutes a valid hypothec in a principal amount of Cdn$400,000,000, with interest thereon at the rate of 25% per annum, on the Charged Property (as defined therein), as security for the obligations purported to be secured thereby in favour of the Attorney, as fondé de pouvoir for the Creditors (as defined therein);

12.

The Pledge Agreement creates, under the laws of the Province of Quebec, a valid hypothec with delivery on the Bond in favour of the Secured Parties (as defined therein);

13.

Upon delivery by Domtar and the continued possession in the Province of Quebec by the Canadian Administrative Agent, on its own behalf and on behalf of the other Secured Parties (as defined in the Pledge Agreement), of the Bond, the Pledge Agreement will constitute, up to the amount thereof, a valid and enforceable pledge and movable hypothec with delivery in favour of the Secured Parties to secure payment and performance of the obligations described therein as being secured thereby;

14.

No authorization of, or giving of notice to, or registration with any governmental body or authority of Canada or the Provinces of Quebec or Ontario is required in connection with the execution, delivery, performance and enforceability as against each of the Canadian Loan Parties or otherwise in order to protect, preserve and perfect or render opposable to third parties the hypothecs and security interests contained in the Canadian Credit Documents to which it is a party, save for (i) the registration in the RPMRR of the hypothecs constituted by the Deed of Hypothec and the renewal of such registrations prior to their respective expiry date and the expiry date of any subsequent renewals; (ii) the filings under the PPSA referred to in Schedule II against such Grantors (as such expression is defined in the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) required to perfect the security interests created by the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement; (iii) such filings and registrations which may be required as set forth in our qualifications hereinbelow; and (iv) court filings which may be required to enforce the Canadian Credit Documents;

15.

All necessary corporate action has been taken, where applicable, by each of the Canadian Loan Parties to authorize the pledge and assignment of the shares of its capital stock in favour of the Canadian Administrative Agent pursuant to the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement;

16.

Upon an Event of Default occurring under the Credit Agreement, the Deed of Hypothec or, to the extent applicable, the Canadian Guarantee and the Collateral Agreement, together with the powers of attorney delivered to the Canadian Administrative Agent in connection therewith, will enable the Canadian Administrative Agent to transfer the applicable shares pledged pursuant thereto of Domtar in the name of the Canadian Administrative Agent or its nominee without any further consent or corporate action of either Canadian Loan Party;

17.

The choice of the laws of the relevant foreign jurisdiction under the Credit Agreement (the “Foreign Jurisdiction”) as the laws governing the Credit Agreement would, to the extent specifically pleaded and proven as a fact by expert evidence, be recognized and applied in an action brought before a Quebec Court in accordance with the choice of the laws of the relevant Foreign Jurisdiction as the governing law of the Credit Agreement, to all issues which under the conflict of law rules of the Province of Quebec are to be determined in accordance with the proper or governing law of a contract except that in such proceedings, such court:

(i)

will apply those laws of the Province of Quebec which such court would characterize as procedural and will not apply those laws of the relevant Foreign Jurisdiction which such court would characterize as procedural;

(ii)

will not apply those laws of the relevant Foreign Jurisdiction which such court would characterize as revenue, expropriatory, penal or similar laws;

(iii)

will not apply those laws of the relevant Foreign Jurisdiction, the application of which would be inconsistent with or contrary to public order, as such term is understood in international relations under the laws of the Province of Quebec; and

(iv)

will apply those laws of the relevant Foreign Jurisdiction which are not impeachable as void or voidable under the laws of such Foreign Jurisdiction.

Note that the validity of a security, the publication thereof and its effects are not matters or issues which under the conflict of law rules of the Province of Quebec are to be determined in accordance with the proper or governing law of a contract;

18.

Pursuant to the Civil Code, a Quebec Court will recognize and, where applicable, declare enforceable any judgment rendered by a court of a foreign jurisdiction with respect to the obligations of Domtar under the Credit Agreement, except in the following cases:

(i)

the court rendering such judgment has no jurisdiction over the judgment debtor, as determined under the relevant provisions of the Civil Code;

(ii)

such judgment is subject to ordinary remedy or is not final or enforceable in the jurisdiction where it was rendered;

(iii)

such judgment was rendered in contravention of the fundamental principles of procedure;

(iv)

a dispute between the same parties, based on the same facts and having the same object, has given rise to a decision rendered in the Province of Quebec, whether or not it has acquired the authority of a final judgment (res judicata), or is pending in the Province of Quebec, in the first instance, or has been decided in another jurisdiction and the decision meets the necessary conditions for recognition in the Province of Quebec;

(v)

the outcome of such judgment is manifestly inconsistent with public order as understood in international relations, or any order made by the Attorney General of Canada under the Foreign Extraterritorial Measures Act (Canada) or by the Competition Tribunal under the Competition Act (Canada) in respect of certain judgments having effects on competition in Canada;

(vi)

such judgment enforces obligations arising from the taxation laws, unless there is reciprocity with respect to the taxation laws of the Province of Quebec, or other laws of a public nature of a foreign jurisdiction, such as penal or expropriation laws or such judgment purports to enforce a security the validity of which is, under the laws of the Province of Quebec, to be governed by the laws of the Province of Quebec and such security is not valid under such laws; and

(vii)

the motion to enforce such judgment is not made in the Province of Quebec within ten (10) years after the date of such judgment.

Note that if such judgment were rendered by default, the plaintiff must prove that the act of procedure initiating the proceedings was duly served on the defendant in accordance with the law of the jurisdiction where the judgment was rendered, and the Quebec Court may refuse recognition or enforcement of such judgment if the defendant proves that, owing to the circumstances, it was unable to learn of the act of procedure initiating the proceedings or it was not given sufficient time to offer its defence.

Also note that in any motion made before a court of competent jurisdiction in the Province of Quebec to enforce such judgment, the Quebec Court will confine itself to verifying whether the judgment in respect of which recognition or enforcement is sought meets the foregoing requirements set out in this paragraph 18, without entering into any examination of the merits of such judgment.

19.

There are no stamp or other issuance or transfer taxes or duties or other similar fees or charges required to be paid in connection with the execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement and each of the other Credit Documents by the Canadian Loan Parties or any other Loan Parties under the laws of the Provinces of Ontario and Quebec and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.

The opinions expressed above are subject to the following limitations and qualifications:

the enforceability of the Canadian Credit Documents or any judgment arising out of or in connection therewith may be limited by any applicable bankruptcy, winding up, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization, prescription or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally;

the enforceability of the Canadian Credit Documents may be limited by public policy and general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in proceedings at law or in equity) and no opinion is given as to any specific remedy that may be granted, imposed or rendered only in the discretion of a court of equity, including remedies such as those of specific performance and injunction;

a court may require the discretionary powers expressed to be conferred on any party to a Canadian Credit Document to be exercised reasonably and in good faith notwithstanding any provision to the contrary and may decline to accept as conclusive factual or legal determinations described as conclusive therein;

no opinion is expressed herein as to title to any property or asset of the Loan Parties charged pursuant to any of the Canadian Credit Documents nor as to the ranking or priority of the hypothecs, security or security interests created pursuant to the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, the Deed of Hypothec and the Pledge Agreement; furthermore, the opinions expressed herein as to the validity of any charge, hypothec and security interests created under any of the Canadian Credit Documents are based on the assumption that each of the Loan Parties which is a party thereto has or will have good and valid title to its properties, rights and assets intended to be charged thereunder;

the preservation of the hypothecs created pursuant to the Deed of Hypothec on movable property that is not alienated in the ordinary course of business is subject to the filing of a notice of preservation of hypothec in the RPMRR within 15 days after the Attorney has been informed in writing of the transfer of the property and the name of the purchaser, or after the Attorney has consented in writing to the transfer, all as provided for in Article 2700 of the Civil Code;

the hypothecs created pursuant to the Deed of Hypothec on properties alienated in the ordinary course of business will cease to apply to such properties but will extend to the properties of the same nature which replace the properties so alienated; if no property replaces the alienated property, the hypothecs shall subsist nonetheless but extend only to the proceeds of the alienation, provided such proceeds may be identified and do not constitute Excluded Property (as such expression is defined in the Deed of Hypothec);

the enforceability against third parties of the Deed of Hypothec on movable properties charged thereunder subsequently incorporated into immovables is subject to the registration of the Deed of Hypothec in the applicable land register as set forth in Article 2796 of the Civil Code;

the hypothecs created by the Deed of Hypothec on movable properties charged thereunder that are subsequently transformed, mixed or combined to form new movables not otherwise charged thereunder or belonging to third parties should be renewed against such new movables so as to preserve their enforceability and ranking as provided for in Article 2953 of the Civil Code;

pursuant to Article 2959 of the Civil Code, the registration of the Deed of Hypothec preserves the same rank for interest due for the current year and the three preceding years as for the capital;

Article 2677 of the Civil Code provides that a hypothec on shares subsists on the shares or other securities received or issued on the purchase, redemption, conversion or cancellation or any other transformation of the shares, provided the registration of the hypothec is renewed against the shares or other securities received or issued and that the creditor may not object to the transformation on the ground of the hypothec;

no opinion is expressed herein regarding the validity of the Deed of Hypothec with respect to securities which by their terms or by law may not be hypothecated or which require the consent of a third party to be hypothecated where such consent has not been obtained;

the enforceability of the Deed of Hypothec on rights resulting from insurance contracts (to the extent charged thereunder) is subject to the insurers receiving notice thereof as required by Articles 2461 and 2497 of the Civil Code;

we express no opinion with respect to the validity or enforceability of the security created under the Deed of Hypothec against (a) corporeal movable property of the Loan Parties party to the Deed of Hypothec situated outside the Province of Quebec other than, in the case of such Loan Parties, including the Canadian Loan Parties, having their domicile in the Province of Quebec, such property ordinarily used in more than one jurisdiction (b) incorporeal movable property established by a title in

bearer form situated outside the Province of Quebec at the time of creation of the security or thereafter or (c) a security published by the holding of the title exercised by the creditor outside the Province of Quebec; no opinion is expressed herein either as to the additional registrations that may be required to be made outside the Province of Quebec to maintain the enforceability of the charges created pursuant to the Deed of Hypothec on corporeal movables ordinarily used in more than one jurisdiction or on incorporeal movables should the domicile of the aforesaid Loan Parties, including the Canadian Loan Parties, having their domicile in the Province of Quebec as of the date of execution of the Deed of Hypothec, be moved to a location outside the Province of Quebec;

the enforceability of certain provisions of the Deed of Hypothec and the Pledge Agreement relating to enforcement and realization proceedings and remedies, may be limited by the provisions of the Civil Code; however, such limitations should not make the remedies intended to be provided by the such agreements inadequate for the practical realization of the benefits intended to be provided thereby if the Attorney, in the case of the Deed of Hypothec, and the Secured Parties, in the case of the Pledge Agreement, act in good faith and in a reasonable manner;

the exercise by the Attorney and by the Secured Parties of any hypothecary right pursuant to the Deed of Hypothec and the Pledge Agreement is subject to the filing of a prior notice at the RPMRR together with evidence of said notice having been served, in the case of the Deed of Hypothec, on the Loan Parties party thereto and, in the case of the Pledge Agreement, on Domtar and, in each case, on any other guarantor thereof against whom the Attorney and/or the Secured Parties, as the case may be, intend to exercise their rights, all as provided for in Articles 2757 et seq of the Civil Code;

the provisions of the Deed of Hypothec and the Pledge Agreement which provide for the acceleration of the indebtedness of any Loan Party which is a party thereto following the occurrence of an “Event of Default” may be limited by the provisions of Article 2761 of the Civil Code which permit the debtor or other interested persons to defeat the exercise of a creditor’s hypothecary rights by remedying the omission or breach set forth in the prior notice relating to the exercise of such creditor’s hypothecary rights;

the continued enforceability of the security constituted by the Pledge Agreement on the Bond is subject to the continuous possession of the Bond by the Attorney (or by such other person appointed from time to time by the Attorney or the other Secured Parties with the consent of Domtar); no opinion is expressed herein as to the continued enforceability of such security to the extent the Bond is held by the Attorney (or such other appointed person) outside the Province of Quebec;

to the extent a hypothec created by the Deed of Hypothec or the Pledge Agreement is acquired by subrogation or assignment, publication of the subrogation or assignment should be made in accordance with Article 3003 of the Civil Code in the RPMRR and a certified statement of registration should be furnished to the debtor, failing the whole of which the subrogation or assignment may not be set up against a subsequent assignee who has observed the aforesaid formalities;

we express no opinion with respect to the effect of any notice given by the Federal Crown or agencies thereof to any debtor of the Loan Parties pursuant to Section 224(1.2) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) or by the Crown in right of Quebec or agencies thereof under an Act respecting the Ministère du Revenu (Quebec) or under any other federal or provincial statute having similar effect or which incorporate the said Section by reference thereto, on the ranking or opposability of any hypothec to the Crown in right of Canada, the Crown in right of Quebec or other agencies thereof, with respect to moneys which would otherwise be payable by any such debtor to the Loan Parties or any of their secured creditors;

we express no opinion on any provision of the Deed of Hypothec and the Pledge Agreement which purports to oblige the parties thereto to be liable after the principal obligations secured thereby have, in any manner, been extinguished;

we express no opinion as to the opposability against third parties or validity of any security interest or hypothec, nor have we effected any registrations in any property or asset to the extent that a security

interest or hypothec with respect to such property is governed by the provisions of an Act of the Parliament of Canada, including, without limitation, any vessel registered under the Canada Shipping Act, any rolling stock subject to the Canada Transportation Act and any patents, trademarks, copyrights or other intellectual property or industrial property;

we express no opinion with respect to any provisions of the Canadian Credit Documents which purport to waive the rights of any party under any legislation which are of public order;

rights of indemnification may be limited under applicable law;

no opinion is expressed herein as to the validity or enforceability of any provision of the Canadian Credit Documents providing for the creation of an irrevocable mandate;

the PPSA imposes certain obligations on secured creditors which cannot be varied by contract. The PPSA may also affect the enforcement of certain rights and remedies contained in the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement to the extent that those rights and remedies are inconsistent with or contrary to the PPSA including, without limitation, Sections 16, 17 and 39 and Part V of the PPSA;

we express no opinion as to the creation, validity, enforceability or perfection of any security interest expressed to have been created by the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement with respect to any property or assets or proceeds derived directly or indirectly therefrom which are not identifiable or traceable;

we express no opinion as to the creation or perfection of a security interest in, nor have we effected any registrations or given any notices in respect of any security interest granted in, any policy of insurance or contract of annuity, including any transfer of any interest therein or claim thereunder, to which, pursuant to Section 4 of the PPSA, the PPSA does not apply;

BB.

we express no opinion with respect to any provisions of the Deed of Hypothec and the Pledge Agreement which purport to enable the Attorney or the Secured Parties to recover from a party any costs in excess of the legal tariff or any fines, penalties or costs levied against or imposed upon such other party by applicable law or by order of court. Pursuant to Articles 2667 and 2762 of the Civil Code, notwithstanding any stipulation to the contrary, the costs secured by the Deed of Hypothec and the Pledge Agreement exclude extra-judicial professional fees payable by the Attorney and Secured Parties or any other person for services required by any of the aforesaid parties in order to recover the capital and interest secured by such agreements or to conserve the charged property mentioned therein;

CC.

enforcement of claims may become barred under applicable statutes of limitation or prescription or as a result of extinctive prescription and may be subject to counter claims or set-offs;

DD.

we express no opinion as to the effectiveness of any provision of the Canadian Credit Documents which purports to allow for the compensation or set-off of unmatured or unliquidated claims;

EE.

we express no opinion with respect to the enforceability of, nor as to the manner in which a court of the Province of Quebec or the Province of Ontario would interpret and apply, any provision of any of the Canadian Credit Documents which refers to, incorporates by reference, or requires compliance with any law, statute, rule or regulation of any jurisdiction other than the Province of Quebec or the Province of Ontario, as applicable, or which incorporates provisions of any documents governed by the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Province of Quebec or the Province of Ontario, as applicable;

FF.

for the purposes of the opinions expressed herein, we have assumed that the choice of law of the Foreign Jurisdiction, as the laws to govern the Credit Agreement was made for bona fide reasons and not for the purpose of avoiding mandatory or overriding laws of any other jurisdiction;

GG.

we draw to your attention that, pursuant to Article 3135 of the Civil Code, even when a Quebec authority (for example, a Quebec Court) has jurisdiction to hear a dispute, it may exceptionally and on application by a party, decline jurisdiction if it considers that the authorities of another jurisdiction are in better position to render a decision. In addition, pursuant to Article 3137 of the Civil Code, a Quebec

authority may stay its ruling on an action brought before it if another action, between the same parties, based on the same facts and having the same object is pending before a foreign authority, provided that the latter action can result in a decision which may be recognized in the Province of Quebec, or if such a decision has already been rendered by a foreign authority;

HH.

pursuant to Articles 3136, 3138 and 3140 of the Civil Code, a Quebec court may, even though it has no jurisdiction to hear a dispute, (i) nevertheless hear such dispute if it has a sufficient connection with Quebec, where proceedings cannot possibly be instituted outside Quebec or where the institution of such proceedings outside Quebec cannot reasonably be required, (ii) order provisional or conservatory measures even if it has no jurisdiction over the merits of the dispute and (iii) in cases of emergency or serious inconvenience, take such measures as it considers reasonable for the protection of a person present in Quebec or of its property located therein;

II.

pursuant to Article 3139 of the Civil Code, where a Quebec authority (for example, a Quebec Court) has jurisdiction over the principal demand, it also has jurisdiction over any incidental demand or cross demand;

JJ.

the Currency Act (Canada) precludes a Canadian court from giving a judgment for an amount expressed in a currency other than Canadian currency.

In respect of the foregoing, Article 3161 of the Civil Code provides as follows:

“3161. Where a foreign decision orders a debtor to pay a sum of money expressed in foreign currency, a Quebec authority (for example, a Quebec Court) converts the sum into Canadian currency at the rate of exchange prevailing on the day the decision became enforceable at the place where it was rendered.

The determination of interest payable under a foreign decision is governed by the law of the authority that rendered the decision until its conversion.”

KK.

any provision in any Canadian Credit Document which purports to sever from such Canadian Credit Document any provision therein which is prohibited or unenforceable under applicable law without affecting the validity of the remainder of such Canadian Credit Document would be enforced only to the extent that the court determined that such prohibited or unenforceable provision could be severed without impairing the interpretation and application of the remainder of such Canadian Credit Document;

LL.

in the event that an action is taken or a judgment is rendered in respect of any of the Credit Documents outside of the Province of Quebec, such action or judgment may be subject to Section 2 of the Business Concerns Records Act (Quebec) which provides that “…, no person shall, pursuant to or under any requirement issued by any legislative, judicial or administrative authority outside Quebec, remove or cause to be removed, or send or cause to be sent, from any place in Quebec to a place outside Quebec, any document or résumé or digest of any document relating to any concern”; for the purposes of the Business Concerns Records Act (Quebec), “document” means any account, balance sheet, statement of receipts and expenditure, profit and loss statement, statement of assets and liabilities, inventory, report and any other writing or material forming part of the records or archives of a business concern;

MM.

taking into consideration Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada) and the definition given to “interest payments” therein, any interest payment in virtue of the Canadian Credit Documents exceeding 60% per annum would result in a criminal infraction rendering the recipient of the payments subject to the penalties provided for in said Section 347;

NN.

a receiver or receiver and manager appointed pursuant to the provisions of the Canadian Credit Documents may for certain purposes be treated by a court as the agent of the Attorney or the Secured Parties and not solely the agent of the Loan Parties notwithstanding any agreement to the contrary;

OO.

we express no opinion as to the enforceability under the laws of the Province of Quebec of any provision of the Quebec Credit Documents to the effect that monies or assets received shall be received or held “in trust” or as “trustee”;

PP.

we express no opinion on any provision of the Canadian Credit Documents which suggests or provides that modifications, amendments or waivers thereto that are not in writing will not be effective;

QQ.

while we express no opinion herein as to the enforceability under the laws of the Province of Quebec of the obligations constituted under the guarantee contained in Section 2 of the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (the “Guarantee”) since such agreement is governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario, we draw your attention to the following which may be deemed to be of public order under the laws of the Province of Quebec:

(i)

Article 2345 of the Civil Code obliges the creditor under a guarantee to provide, upon request from the guarantor, any useful information respecting the content and the terms and conditions of the principal obligation and the progress made in its performance. Another provision dealing with timely information to a guarantor is Article 2757 of the Civil Code, which provides that should a creditor intend to exercise a hypothecary right and in this regard file a prior notice at the registry office, evidence may have to be supplied by the creditor that such notice has been served on the guarantor if the creditor intends at that occasion to exercise its hypothecary rights against the guarantor;

(ii)

the provisions of Article 2355 of the Civil Code render null any waiver made in advance of the benefit of subrogation by a guarantor; consequently, if as a result of the acts of the beneficiaries of the Guarantee, the beneficiaries of the Guarantee could no longer be usefully subrogated to the rights of any such beneficiary, or if any of the guarantors thereunder to which the laws of the Province of Quebec would apply were to be deprived of a security or a right which it could have set up by subrogation, then such guarantors could be discharged to the extent of the prejudice suffered, notwithstanding any provisions of the Guarantee to the opposite effect. In order to avoid the probability of such a discharge in the foregoing circumstances, the beneficiaries of the Guarantee should obtain the prior consent of the said guarantors and of any future guarantor before releasing or waiving any rights in respect of any of the security securing the obligations of the said guarantors which such beneficiaries hold under the Guarantee or otherwise;

(iii)

Article 2340 of the Civil Code provides that a guarantee “may be contracted only for a valid obligation” and Article 2341 of the Civil Code provides that a guarantee may not be contracted under conditions more onerous than those applicable to the guaranteed obligations;

(iv)

if the decisions rendered in certain case law are followed by the courts of the Province of Quebec, any provision of the Guarantee purporting to allow Domtar or, as the case may be, the beneficiaries of the Guarantee to increase the obligations guaranteed by the Guarantee or otherwise amend such obligations without the consent of the relevant guarantor might not be enforced by a court of the Province of Quebec;

RR.

the obligations of the parties under the Canadian Credit Documents and the enforceability thereof are subject to all qualifications which, by equity, usage or law, are incidental thereto by their nature, including without limitation, as applicable:

(i)

in accordance with Articles 6 and 1375 of the Civil Code, good faith which the parties must have exercised and must continue to exercise in the negotiation, implementation and enforcement of the Quebec Credit Documents;

(ii)

any realization upon the security forming part of the Canadian Credit Documents should be made upon commercially reasonable terms in the circumstances;

(iii)

court decisions which may limit the rights of secured creditors to forcibly realize on their security without appropriate judicial proceedings;

(iv)

limitations which may be imposed by law on the effectiveness of terms exculpating a party from a liability or a duty otherwise owed by it at law, a liability in respect of acts or omissions which may be illegal or fraudulent or a liability resulting from gross negligence or wilful misconduct;

(v)

the discretion that a court may reserve to itself to impose restrictions on the rights of creditors to enforce immediate payment of amounts stated to be payable on demand and to decline to be bound by determinations of fact stated to be conclusive by the contracting parties;

(vi)

the provisions of the said documents that certain calculations or certificates will be conclusive and binding will not be effective if such calculations or certificates are fraudulent or erroneous on their face and will not necessarily prevent judicial enquiry into the merits of any claim by an aggrieved party;

(vii)

equitable remedies such as specific performance and injunctive relief which may be ordered by a court in its discretion and accordingly may not be available as a remedy in an action brought to enforce the said documents;

(viii)

the powers of the courts to stay proceedings before them and to stay the execution of judgments;

(ix)

the discretion that a court may reserve to itself to decline to hear an action if it is contrary to public policy for it to do so or if it is not the proper forum to hear such action;

(x)

in accordance with Article 1693 of the Civil Code, the obligations of the parties to the Quebec Credit Documents may be affected by a case of superior force;

(xi)

limitations upon the right of a party to the Canadian Credit Documents to enforce such document on the basis of a default of minor importance or of a purely technical default, such as a failure to timely produce a document;

(xii)

in accordance with Article 2332 of the Civil Code, the possibility of cancellation or reduction by a court of the obligations arising from the Quebec Credit Documents or, the revision by a court of the terms and conditions of the performance of these obligations to the extent that if it finds that, having regard to the risk and to all the surrounding circumstances, one of the parties has suffered lesion.

SS.

we express no opinion as to which provision would prevail in the event that a provision of a Canadian Credit Document is inconsistent with the provisions of any other Canadian Credit Document except where the inconsistency is addressed by a paramountcy clause;

TT.

a secured party may be required to give a debtor a reasonable time to repay following a demand for payment (or an automatic acceleration upon the occurrence of an event of default) prior to taking any action to enforce a right of repayment or before exercising any other rights and remedies expressed to be exercisable by the secured party in the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement;

UU.

we express no opinion as to the enforceability of any provision of the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement which purports to waive all defences which might be available to, or constitute a discharge of the liability of, the Loan Parties;

VV.

a court may decline to hear an action if it determines, in its discretion, that it is not the proper forum;

WW.

costs and expenses incidental to all court proceedings are in the discretion of the court which can determine by whom and to what extent such costs and expenses will be paid;

XX.

any provision of the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement which provides for (i) interest to be paid at a higher rate after than before default, (ii) the forfeiture of a deposit or any other property, or (iii) a particular calculation of damages upon breach, may not be enforceable if it is interpreted by a court to be a penalty or if the court determines that relief from forfeiture is appropriate;

YY.

the opinions expressed in paragraphs 15 and 16 is subject to the qualification that the directors’ resolution of the applicable Canadian Loan Party authorizing the transfer of its shares to a third party other than the Canadian Administrative Agent may not bind a future board of directors of such Canadian Loan Party; and

ZZ.

we express no opinion as to any licences, permits or approvals that may be required in connection with the enforcement of the Canadian Credit Documents where such enforcement involves the operation of the business of a Canadian Loan Party or a sale, transfer or disposition of their respective properties and assets.

We draw to your attention that we assume no responsibility for any such registrations, filings, notices, recordings or renewals thereof that may be required as set forth hereinabove and that you should therefore make appropriate diary entries to ensure the timely effecting of any such registrations, filings, notices, recordings or renewals thereof.

This opinion is furnished by us as counsel to Domtar in connection with the above-referenced transactions solely for your benefit and no other person may rely on this opinion for its own benefit or for any other purpose without our prior written consent. It is understood that this opinion speaks only as of the date hereof and covers only the matters referred to herein as of such date.

Each of the Lenders from time to time that

are parties to the Credit Agreement

We have acted as special Michigan counsel to Port Huron Fiber Corporation, a Michigan corporation (the “Guarantor”) regarding certain matters of Michigan law with respect to certain transactions described in the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, dated as of March 7, 2007 (the “Guarantee”), by the Guarantor and certain other direct or indirect subsidiaries of Domtar Inc. (the “Borrower”) that are parties thereto, in favor of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) for the banks and other financial institutions or entities (the “Lenders”) from time to time parties to the Credit Agreement, dated as of March 7, 2007 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among Domtar Corporation (the “Parent Borrower”), Domtar Paper Company, LLC (the “Subsidiary Borrower” and together with the Parent Borrower, collectively, the “US Borrowers”), Domtar Inc. (the “Canadian Borrower” and together with the US Borrowers, collectively, the “Borrowers”), the Lenders, the Co-Documentation Agents, the Syndication Agent and the Administrative Agent.

The opinions expressed below are furnished to you pursuant to Section 5.1(h)(iv) of the Credit Agreement.

In arriving at the opinions expressed below,

1. we have examined and relied on the following (including, but not limited to, the representations and warranties contained therein):

(a) copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of the Guarantee and the Credit Agreement,

(b) such corporate documents and records of the Guarantor and such other instruments and certificates of public officials, officers and representatives of the Guarantor as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion; and

2. we have made such investigations of law as we have deemed appropriate as a basis for this opinion.

In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed, with your permission, without independent investigation or inquiry, (a) the authenticity of all executed documents submitted to us, (b) the genuineness of all signatures, (c) the conformity to authentic originals of documents submitted to us as certified, conformed or photostatic copies, and (d) the due authorization, execution and delivery of each of the Loan Documents by each party thereto (other than the Guarantor).

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and the qualifications hereinafter set forth, we are of the opinion that:

1. The Guarantor is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Michigan.

2. The Guarantor has the corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Guarantee and has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the execution and delivery of, and performance of its obligations under, the Guarantee.

3. Insofar as execution and delivery are governed by the laws of Michigan, the Guarantee has been duly executed and delivered on behalf the Guarantor.

4. To the best of our knowledge, no consent or authorization of, approval by, notice to, or filing with, any Michigan court or governmental authority is required to be obtained or made on or prior to the date hereof by the Guarantor in connection with its execution and delivery of, or performance of its obligations under, the Guarantee, or in connection with the validity or enforceability against it of the Guarantee.

5. The execution and delivery by the Guarantor of the Guarantee and the performance by the Guarantor of its obligations thereunder, (x) will not violate (i) the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Guarantor, (ii) any existing Michigan law, rule or regulation applicable to the Guarantor or (iii) any existing order, known to us, issued by any Michigan court or other local governmental authority and binding upon the Guarantor.

For purposes of the opinion set forth in paragraph 5 above, we have endeavored, to the extent we have believed necessary, to determine from lawyers currently in our firm who have performed substantive legal services for the Guarantor, whether such services involved substantive attention in the form of legal representation concerning any order of the nature referred to in paragraph 5 above. We have not made any review, search or investigation of public files or records with respect to any such order or any other action or proceeding.

Our opinions set forth in paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 above are subject to the limitations and effects of (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights or remedies generally and (b) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). Our opinions set forth in paragraphs 3, 4, 5 above are also subject to the effects of (i) an implied covenant of good faith, reasonableness and fair dealing, (ii) limitations on enforceability of rights to the extent any indemnification would violate public policy, (iii) limitations, to the extent applicable to the Guarantor, of any applicable usury laws or other similar laws affecting the charging and collection of interest on loans in the State of Michigan, and (iv) limitations upon the ability of a Lender to collect Additional Compensation from the Guarantor pursuant to Section 2.20 of the Credit Agreement. We express no opinion as to (1) the enforceability of any waiver of any statutory right, (2) the enforceability of the choice of law provision in Section 8.11 of the Guarantee, (3) the jurisdictional consents and waiver of inconvenient forum set forth in Section 8.12 of the Guarantee, and (4) Section 8.17 of the Guarantee.

We express no opinion as to the validity or perfection of any security interest, or the validity, binding effect or enforceability of the Guarantee to the extent that the Guarantee grants or purports to grant a security interest.

We express no opinion as to the ability or viability of the Guarantor to undertake, fulfill or satisfy any of its financial obligations under the Guarantee and have not reviewed or investigated the financial statements and/or the financial status of the Guarantor, all of which are subject to the limitations set forth herein.

We express no opinion as to the effect of, or compliance with, any laws of the State of Michigan regarding fraudulent transfers or conveyances, or provisions of Michigan law restricting dividends, loans or other distributions by a corporation or for the benefit of its stockholders.

We express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of Michigan that, in our experience, are generally applicable to transactions of this type. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, we express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction or as to the effect of such laws, whether limiting, prohibitive or otherwise, on any of the rights or obligations of any other party to or beneficiary of the Guarantee or the Credit Agreement.

The opinions expressed herein are given solely as of the date hereof and are solely for the benefit you and the Lenders to the Credit Agreement. We assume no obligation to supplement this opinion if any applicable laws change after the date of this opinion, or if we become aware of any facts that might change the opinions expressed above after the date of this opinion. Without our prior consent, neither our opinion nor this opinion letter may be disclosed publicly to or relied upon by any other person, except that this opinion letter may be furnished to, but not relied upon by, (i) any person that purchases an interest or participation in the Canadian Loans and (ii) any auditor or regulatory authority having jurisdiction over a Lender or pursuant to a court order or other judicial process.

(i) A Good Standing Certificate for each of the Companies, dated March 7, 2007, obtained from the Secretary of State.

Initially capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined are used as defined in the Security Agreement. The America Financing Statement, the USA Financing Statement, the Maine Financing Statement, the Enterprises Financing Statement, the Industries Financing Statement and the AW Financing Statement are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Financing Statements.”

For purposes of this opinion, we have not reviewed any documents other than the documents listed in paragraphs (a) through (i) above. In particular, we have not reviewed any document (other than the documents listed in paragraphs (a) through (i) above) that is referred to in or incorporated by reference into any document reviewed by us. We have assumed that there exists no provision in any document that we have not reviewed that is inconsistent with the opinions stated herein. We have conducted no independent factual investigation of our own but rather have relied solely upon the foregoing documents, the statements and information set forth therein and the additional matters recited or assumed herein, all of which we have assumed to be true, complete and accurate in all material respects.

With respect to all documents examined by us, we have assumed that (i) all signatures on documents examined by us are genuine, (ii) all documents submitted to us as originals are authentic, and (iii) all documents submitted to us as copies conform with the original copies of those documents.

For purposes of this opinion, we have assumed (i) that none of the Certificates has been amended and that no such amendment is pending or has been proposed, (ii) that each of the Companies is organized solely under the laws of the State of Delaware, (iii) that there are no proceedings pending or contemplated for (A) the merger, consolidation, conversion, dissolution, liquidation or termination of any of the Companies, or (B) any of the Companies’ transfer to or domestication in any other jurisdiction, (iv) that none of the Companies has changed its name, whether by amendment of its organizational documents, by reorganization or otherwise, within the last four months, (v) the due organization, due formation or due creation, as the case may be, and valid existence in good standing of each party to the documents examined by us under the laws of the jurisdiction governing its organization, formation or creation, (vi) the legal capacity of natural persons who are signatories to the documents examined by us, (vii) that each of the parties to the documents examined by us has the power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, such documents, (viii) the due authorization, execution and delivery by all parties thereto of all documents examined by us, and (ix) that each of the documents examined by us constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the parties thereto, and is enforceable against the parties thereto, in accordance with its terms. We have not participated in the preparation of any offering material relating to the Companies and assume no responsibility for the contents of any such material. In addition, we assume no responsibility for the filing of the Financing Statements (or any continuation statements or amendments with respect thereto) with the Division or any other governmental office or agency.

This opinion is limited to the laws of the State of Delaware (excluding the insurance, securities and blue sky laws of the State of Delaware), and we have not considered and express no opinion on the laws of any other jurisdiction, including federal laws (including federal bankruptcy law) and rules and regulations relating thereto. Our opinions are rendered only with respect to Delaware laws and rules, regulations and orders thereunder that are currently in effect.

Page 3

Based upon the foregoing, and upon our examination of such questions of law and statutes of the State of Delaware as we have considered necessary or appropriate, and subject to the assumptions, qualifications, limitations and exceptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:

1. Each of the Financing Statements is in an appropriate form for filing with the Division.

2. Insofar as Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Delaware on the date hereof (the “Delaware UCC”) is applicable (without regard to conflict of laws principles), upon the filing of the America Financing Statement with the Division, the Administrative Agent will have a perfected security interest in America’s rights in that portion of the Collateral described in the America Financing Statement in which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of a UCC financing statement with the Division (the “America Filing Collateral”) and the proceeds (as defined in Section 9-102(a)(64) of the Delaware UCC) thereof.

3. Insofar as Article 9 of the Delaware UCC is applicable (without regard to conflict of laws principles), upon the filing of the USA Financing Statement with the Division, the Administrative Agent will have a perfected security interest in USA’s rights in that portion of the Collateral described in the USA Financing Statement in which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of a UCC financing statement with the Division (the “USA Filing Collateral”) and the proceeds (as defined in Section 9-102(a)(64) of the Delaware UCC) thereof.

4.

The opinions expressed above are subject to the following additional assumptions, qualifications, limitations and exceptions:

A. We have assumed that (i) each of the Companies has sufficient rights in the Collateral and has received sufficient value and consideration in connection with the security interests granted under the Security Agreement for the security interests of the Administrative Agent to attach, and we express no opinion as to the nature or extent of the Companies’ rights in, or title to, any portion of the Collateral, and (ii) the Security Agreement and each of the Financing Statements reasonably identifies the Collateral. Accordingly, we have assumed that the security interests in the Filing Collateral and the proceeds (as defined in Section 9-102(a)(64) of the Delaware UCC) thereof have been duly created and have attached. In addition, we have assumed that none of the Filing Collateral consists of a type of collateral described in Section 9-501(a)(1) of the Delaware UCC. Further, we have assumed that the Companies have authorized the filing of the Financing Statements with the Division.

B. The opinions set forth above are limited to Article 9 of the Delaware UCC, and therefore such opinions do not address (i) laws of jurisdictions other than the State of Delaware, and of the State of Delaware except for Article 9 of the Delaware UCC, (ii) collateral of a type not subject to Article 9 of the Delaware UCC, and (iii) what law governs perfection of the security interests granted in the collateral covered by this opinion.

C. We note that further filings under the Delaware UCC may be necessary to preserve and maintain (to the extent established and perfected by the filing of the Financing Statements as described herein) the perfection of the security interests of the Administrative Agent in the Filing Collateral, including, without limitation, the following:

(i) appropriate continuation filings to be made within the period of six months prior to the expiration of five year anniversary dates from the date of the original filing of the Financing Statements;

(ii) filings required with respect to proceeds of collateral under Section 9-315(d) of the Delaware UCC;

(iii) filings required within four months of the change of name, identity or structure made by or with respect to the Companies, to the extent set forth in Sections 9-507 and 9-508 of the Delaware UCC;

(iv) filings required within four months of a change by any of the Companies of its location to another jurisdiction, to the extent set forth in Sections 9-301 and 9-316 of the Delaware UCC; and

(v) filings required within one year after the transfer of collateral to a person or entity that becomes a debtor and is located in another jurisdiction, to the extent set forth in Section 9-316 of the Delaware UCC.

D. We do not express any opinion as to the perfection of any security interest in any portion of the Collateral in which a security interest cannot be perfected by the filing of a financing statement with the Division. In addition, no opinion is expressed herein concerning (i) any collateral other than the Filing Collateral and the proceeds (as defined in Section 9-102(a)(64) of the Delaware UCC) thereof, (ii) any portion of the Filing Collateral that constitutes a “commercial tort claim” (as defined in Section 9-102(a)(13) of the Delaware UCC), (iii) any consumer transaction, or (iv) any security interest in goods covered by a certificate of title statute. Further, we do not express any opinion as to the perfection of any security interest in (i) Filing Collateral acquired by any of the Companies after the date hereof, or (ii) proceeds (as defined in Section 9-102(a)(64) of the Delaware UCC) of the Filing Collateral, except to the extent that such proceeds consist of cash proceeds (as defined in Section 9-102(a)(9) of the Delaware UCC) that are identifiable cash proceeds (as contemplated by Sections 9-315(b) and (d) of the Delaware UCC), subject, however, to the limitations of Section 9-315 of the Delaware UCC.

E. We do not express any opinion as to the priority of any security interest.

F. We call to your attention that under the Delaware UCC, actions taken by a secured party (e.g., releasing or assigning the security interests, delivering possession of the collateral to the debtor or another person and voluntarily subordinating a security interest) may affect the validity, perfection, or priority of a security interest.

G. The opinions expressed in paragraphs 2 through 7 above are subject to the effect of (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership, reorganization, liquidation, fraudulent conveyance and transfer and other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally, and (ii) principles of equity (regardless of whether considered and applied in a proceeding in equity or at law).

H. In rendering the opinions set forth above, we have assumed that the word “Copy” imprinted on the UCC-1 cover page of each of the Financing Statements attached hereto as exhibits will be removed prior to the filing of the Financing Statements with the Division.

We understand that you will rely as to matters of Delaware law upon this opinion in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Security Agreement. In addition, your successors and assigns (including, without limitation, any trustee in connection with a securitization) and any rating agency may rely as to matters of Delaware law upon this opinion in connection with the matters set forth herein, subject to the understanding that the opinions rendered herein are given on the date hereof and such opinions are rendered only with respect to facts existing on the date hereof and laws, rules and regulations currently in effect. In connection with the foregoing, we hereby consent to your and your successors’ and assigns’ (including, without limitation, any trustee in connection with a securitization) and any such rating agency’s relying as to matters of Delaware law upon this opinion. Except as stated above, without our prior written consent, this opinion may not be furnished or quoted to, or relied upon by, any other person or entity for any purpose.

Furthermore, within ten Business Days after any Grantor obtains a Pledged Note with a principal amount in excess of $1,000,000, such Grantor shall cause such Pledged Note to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

Intellectual Property. (xvii) Such Grantor (other than any Grantor at any time that such Grantor is not then required to pledge such Intellectual Property hereunder pursuant to clause (viii) of the proviso to Section 3), either itself or through licensees, will (i) as deemed necessary in such Grantor’s reasonable business judgment, continue to use each material Trademark in order to maintain such Trademark in full force free from any claim of abandonment for non-use, (ii) maintain as in the past the quality of products and services offered under such material Trademark, (iii) use such material Trademark with the appropriate notice of registration and all other notices and legends required by applicable Requirements of Law, (iv) not adopt or use any ▇▇▇▇ which is confusingly similar or a colorable imitation of such Trademark unless such ▇▇▇▇ shall be considered Collateral and subject to the terms of this Agreement, and (iv) not (and not permit any licensee or sublicensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby such material Trademark may become invalidated or impaired in any way, if such invalidation or impairment would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will not do any act, or omit to do any act, whereby any material Patent could reasonably be expected to become forfeited, abandoned or dedicated to the public, other than through expiration of any statutory term.

Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) (i) will not (and will use commercially reasonable efforts to not permit any licensee or sublicense thereof) to do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any material portion of the Copyrights may become invalidated or otherwise impaired, if such invalidation or impairment would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Such Grantor will not (either itself

or through licensees) do any act whereby any material portion of the Copyrights may fall into the public domain, other than through expiration of any statutory term, if such act could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will not do any act that knowingly uses any material Intellectual Property to infringe the intellectual property rights of any other Person.

Such Grantor will notify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders immediately if it knows, or has reason to know, that any application or registration relating to any material Intellectual Property may become forfeited, abandoned or dedicated to the public, or of any adverse determination (including, without limitation, the institution against Grantor of, or any such determination in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any court or tribunal in any country) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of, or the validity of, any material Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor or such Grantor’s right to register the same or to own and maintain the same.

Whenever such Grantor, either by itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, shall file an application for the registration of any Intellectual Property with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office such Grantor shall report such filing to the Administrative Agent as promptly as reasonably practicable after the last day of the fiscal year in which such filing occurs. Upon request of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor shall execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents, and papers as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to evidence the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ security interest in any Copyright, Patent or Trademark and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby.

Such Grantor will take all reasonably necessary steps, in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, to maintain and pursue each application relating to any material Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor (and to obtain the relevant registration) and to maintain each registration of the material Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor, including, without limitation, filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use and affidavits of incontestability, except as provided in Section 5.6(a)(i).

In the event that any Grantor knows, or has reason to know, that any material Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor is infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party, such Grantor shall (i) take such actions as such Grantor shall reasonably deem appropriate in its reasonable business judgment under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property and (ii) if such Intellectual Property is deemed by such Grantor to be of material economic value, as promptly as reasonably practicable notify the Administrative Agent after it learns thereof and ▇▇▇ for infringement, misappropriation or dilution, to seek injunctive relief where deemed appropriate by such Grantor and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution.

REMEDIAL PROVISIONS

Certain Matters Relating to Receivables. (xviii) At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon the Administrative Agent’s request and at the expense of the relevant Grantor, such Grantor shall cause independent public accountants or reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to furnish to the Administrative Agent reports showing reconciliations, aging and test verifications of, and trial balances for, the Receivables.

If required by the Administrative Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments of Receivables, when collected by any Grantor, (i) shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within two Business Days) deposited by such Grantor in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent if required, in a Collateral Account maintained under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, subject to withdrawal by the Administrative Agent for the account of the

Lenders only as provided in Section 6.5, and (ii) until so turned over, shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, segregated from other funds of such Grantor. Deposits of Proceeds of Receivables, which individually exceed $100,000, shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit.

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and at the Administrative Agent’s request, each Grantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent all documents evidencing, and relating to, the agreements and transactions which gave rise to the Receivables, including, without limitation, all orders, invoices and shipping receipts.

Communications with Obligors; Grantors Remain Liable. (xix) The Administrative Agent in its own name or in the name of others may at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default communicate with obligors under the Receivables to verify with them to the Administrative Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Receivables.

Upon the request of the Administrative Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall notify obligors on the Receivables that the Receivables have been assigned to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Administrative Agent.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each of the Receivables to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation or liability under any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the Administrative Agent or any Lender be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

Pledged Securities. (xx) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall have given notice to the relevant Grantor of the Administrative Agent’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Section 6.3(b), each Grantor shall be permitted to receive all cash dividends and other distributions paid in respect of the Pledged Stock and all payments made in respect of the Pledged Notes, to the extent permitted in the Credit Agreement, and to exercise all voting and corporate or other organizational rights with respect to the Pledged Securities.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall give notice of its intent to exercise such rights to the relevant Grantor or Grantors, (i) the Administrative Agent shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Pledged Securities and make application thereof to the Obligations in such order as set forth in Section 6.5, and (ii) any or all of the Pledged Securities shall be registered in the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee, and the Administrative Agent or its nominee may thereafter exercise (x) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to such Pledged Securities at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant Issuer or Issuers or otherwise and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Pledged Securities as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged Securities upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate or other organizational structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by any Grantor or the Administrative Agent of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Pledged Securities, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Securities with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon

such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent may determine), all without liability (other than to the extent such liabilities are found by a court of competent jurisdiction (or a settlement tantamount thereto) to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent) except to account for property actually received by it, but the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to any Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

Each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer that is a Subsidiary of a Grantor of any Pledged Securities pledged by such Grantor hereunder to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Administrative Agent in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying, and (ii) if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the relevant Issuer of its intent to exercise its rights pursuant to Section 6.3(b), pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Pledged Securities directly to the Administrative Agent.

Proceeds to be Turned Over To Administrative Agent. In addition to the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders specified in Section 6.1 with respect to payments of Receivables, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, all Proceeds received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other Instruments shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, promptly upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent, if required). All Proceeds received by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a Collateral Account maintained under its sole dominion and control. All Proceeds while held by the Administrative Agent in a Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) shall continue to be held as collateral security for all the Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in Section 6.5; provided that all funds in such Collateral Account shall be promptly released to such Grantor upon the cure or waiver of any such Event of Default.

Application of Proceeds. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Loans have been accelerated pursuant to Section 8 of the Credit Agreement, at any time at the Administrative Agent’s election, the Administrative Agent may apply all or any part of Proceeds constituting Collateral, whether or not held in any Collateral Account, and any proceeds of the guarantee set forth in Section 2, in payment of the Obligations in the following order:

First, to pay incurred and unpaid reasonable, out-of-pocket fees and expenses of the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents;

Second, to the Administrative Agent, for application by it towards payment of amounts then due and owing and remaining unpaid in respect of the Obligations, pro rata among the Secured Parties according to the amounts of the Obligations then due and owing and remaining unpaid to the Secured Parties; and

Third, any balance remaining after the Obligations shall have been paid in full, no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding (that are not cash collateralized to the reasonable satisfaction of the Issuing Lender in respect thereof) and the Revolving Commitments shall have terminated shall be paid over to the Borrower or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.

Code and Other Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the New York UCC or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Administrative Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below or notices otherwise required under the Loan Documents) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived unless otherwise provided in the

Loan Documents), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith, subject to pre-existing rights and licenses, sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Administrative Agent or any Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Administrative Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent at places which the Administrative Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. The Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 6.6, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind actually incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in order of priority as specified in Section 6.5 above, and only after such application and after the payment by the Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 9-615(a)(3) of the New York UCC, need the Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition.

Registration Rights. (xxi) If the Administrative Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Pledged Stock pursuant to Section 6.6, and if in the opinion of the Administrative Agent it is necessary or advisable to have the Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, registered under the provisions of the Securities Act, the relevant Grantor will cause the Issuer thereof to (i) execute and deliver, and cause the directors and officers of such Issuer to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, necessary or advisable to register the Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, under the provisions of the Securities Act, (ii) use its best efforts to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for a period of one year from the date of the first public offering of the Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, and (iii) make all amendments thereto and/or to the related prospectus which, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable thereto. Each Grantor agrees to cause such Issuer to comply with the provisions of the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of any and all jurisdictions which the Administrative Agent shall designate and to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

Each Grantor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Stock, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such Issuer would agree to do so.

Each Grantor agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Stock pursuant to this Section 6.7 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Requirements of Law. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 6.7 will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 6.7 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred under the Credit Agreement.

Subordination. Each Grantor hereby agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, all Indebtedness owing by it to any Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower shall be fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of such Grantor’s Obligations.

Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Obligations and the reasonable fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent to collect such deficiency.

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Administrative Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc. (xxii) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be reasonably necessary to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Administrative Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following:

in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and indorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Receivable of such Grantor or with respect to any other Collateral of such Grantor and file any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Receivable of such Grantor or with respect to any other Collateral of such Grantor whenever payable;

in the case of any Intellectual Property, execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Administrative Agent may request to evidence the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ security interest in such Intellectual Property and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby;

pay or discharge taxes and Liens, other than any Liens permitted under the Loan Documents, levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral of such Grantor, effect any repairs or any insurance called for by the terms of this Agreement and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof;

execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 6.6 or 6.7, any indorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral of such Grantor; and

(1) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral of such Grantor to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct; (2) ask or demand for, collect, and receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral of such Grantor; (3) sign and indorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading,

storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral of such Grantor; (4) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral of such Grantor or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral of such Grantor; (5) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral of such Grantor; (6) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate; (7) subject to pre-existing rights and licenses, assign any Copyright, Patent or Trademark (along with the goodwill of the business to which any such Copyright, Patent or Trademark pertains), throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Administrative Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and (8) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral of such Grantor as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Administrative Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Administrative Agent deems reasonably necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral of such Grantor and the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

Anything in this Section 7.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 7.1(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the Administrative Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.

The expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 7.1 shall be payable by the relevant Grantor to the Administrative Agent on demand.

Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable with respect to such Grantor until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests in the Collateral of such Grantor created hereby are released.

Duty of Administrative Agent. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Administrative Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the New York UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Administrative Agent, any Lender nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person, except as otherwise provided herein, or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise any such powers. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct or that of their officers, directors, employees or agents.

Execution of Financing Statements. Pursuant to any applicable law, each Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to file or record financing statements and other filing or recording documents or

instruments with respect to the Collateral of such Grantor in such form and in such offices as the Administrative Agent determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. Each Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to use the collateral description “all personal property” in any such financing statements. Each Grantor hereby ratifies and authorizes the filing by the Administrative Agent of any financing statement with respect to the Collateral made prior to the date hereof. The Collateral Agent agrees to notify the relevant Grantor of any financing or continuation statement filed by it, provided that any failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of such filing.

Authority of Administrative Agent. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Administrative Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Administrative Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Administrative Agent and the Grantors, the Administrative Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Lenders with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

MISCELLANEOUS

Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in accordance with Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement.

Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Administrative Agent or any Grantor hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section 10.2 of the Credit Agreement; provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Guarantor shall be addressed to such Guarantor at its notice address set forth on Schedule 1.

No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 8.1), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Administrative Agent or such Lender would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification. (a) Each Guarantor agrees to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all its costs and expenses incurred in collecting against such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in Section 2 or otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party, including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent.

(b) Each Guarantor agrees to pay, and to save the Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) Each Guarantor agrees to pay, and to save the Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or

disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement to the extent the Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement.

(d) The agreements in this Section 8.4 shall survive repayment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Grantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their successors and assigns; provided that no Grantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

Set-Off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall, after the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, have the right, without prior notice to any Grantor, any such notice being expressly waived by each Grantor to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any Obligations becoming due and payable by any Grantor (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to apply to the payment of such Obligations, by setoff or otherwise, any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of such Grantor. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the relevant Grantor and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which 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.

Section Headings. The Section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement of the Grantors, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to subject matter hereof and thereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other document or agreement among all or some of the parties hereto, Domtar Delaware Holdings Inc. (the “ULC Pledgor”) is the sole registered and beneficial owner of all Pledged Stock which are ULC Shares and will remain so until such time as such ULC Shares are effectively transferred into the name of the Administrative Agent or any other person on the books and records of the issuer of such ULC Shares other than as a result of transfers permitted pursuant to the Credit Agreement. Accordingly, the ULC Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain for its own account any dividends, property or other distributions, if any, in respect of such ULC Shares and shall have the right to vote such ULC Shares and to control the direction, management and policies of the issuer of such ULC Shares to the same extent as the ULC Pledgor would if such ULC Shares were not pledged to the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto. Nothing in this Agreement or any other document or agreement among all or some of the parties hereto is intended to, and nothing in this Agreement or any other document or agreement among all or some of the parties hereto shall constitute the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party, or any person other than the ULC Pledgor or other relevant grantor a shareholder or member of an unlimited company for the purposes of the Companies Act (Nova Scotia) or the Business Corporations Act (Alberta), as the case may be, until such time as notice is given to the ULC Pledgor or other relevant grantor and further steps are taken thereunder so as to register the Administrative Agent, or any other person as holder of Collateral which are ULC Shares. To the extent any provision hereof would have the effect of constituting the Administrative Agent, any Secured Party, or any other person as a shareholder or member of an unlimited company for the purposes of the Companies Act (Nova Scotia) or the Business Corporations Act (Alberta), as the case may be, prior to such time, such provision shall be severed herefrom or therefrom and ineffective with respect to the Collateral which are ULC Shares without otherwise invalidating or rendering unenforceable this Agreement or such other agreement or invalidating or rendering unenforceable such provision insofar as it relates to Collateral which is not ULC Shares. Except upon the exercise of rights to sell or otherwise dispose of Collateral which is ULC Shares following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each of the ULC Pledgor and, as the case may be, other relevant grantor(s) shall not cause or permit, or enable any unlimited company in which it holds ULC Shares to cause or permit, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to: (a) be registered as a shareholder or member of such unlimited company; (b) have any notation entered in its favour in the share register of such unlimited company; (c) be held out as a shareholder or member of such unlimited company; (d) receive, directly or indirectly, any dividends, property or other distributions from such unlimited company by reason of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party holding a security interest in such unlimited company; or (e) act as a shareholder or member of such unlimited company, or exercise any rights of a shareholder or member including the right to attend a meeting of, or to vote the shares of, such unlimited company.

Anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable federal, state and provincial laws relating to the insolvency of debtors and, in the case of each Guarantor governed by the Companies Act (Quebec), without limiting the generality of the foregoing, under Article 123.66 of the Companies Act (Quebec) (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 2.2 to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law).

Each Guarantor agrees that the Canadian Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such Guarantor hereunder without impairing the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or affecting the rights and remedies of the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender hereunder.

The guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall remain in full force and effect until the earlier to occur of (i) the first date on which all the Canadian Obligations and the obligations of each Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall have been satisfied by payment in full, no Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower shall be outstanding (that is not cash collateralized to the reasonable satisfaction of the Issuing Lender in respect thereof) and the Revolving Commitments of the Canadian Lenders shall be terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Credit Agreement the Canadian Borrower may be free from any Canadian Obligations, and (ii) as to any Guarantor, the sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor (to a Person other than any Global Group Member) as permitted under the Credit Agreement.

No payment (other than payment in full) made by the Canadian Borrower or any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender from the Canadian Borrower or the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Canadian Obligations of the Canadian Borrower shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of the Canadian Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the Canadian Obligations), remain liable for the Canadian Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the earlier to occur of (i) the Canadian Obligations being paid in full, no Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower shall be outstanding (that is not cash collateralized to the reasonable satisfaction of the Issuing Lender in respect thereof) and the Revolving Commitments of the Canadian Lenders are terminated, and (ii) as to any Guarantor, the sale or other disposition of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor (to a Person other than a Global Group Member) as permitted under the Credit Agreement.

Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.3. The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.

No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender against any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender for the payment of the Canadian Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders by the Borrowers on account of the Canadian Obligations are paid in full, no Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower shall be outstanding (that is not cash collateralized to the reasonable satisfaction of the Issuing Lender in respect thereof) and the Revolving Commitments of the Canadian Lenders are terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Canadian Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon

receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Canadian Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Canadian Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the Canadian Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Canadian Administrative Agent may determine.

Amendments, etc. with respect to the Canadian Obligations. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Canadian Obligations made by the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender may be rescinded by the Canadian Administrative Agent or such Canadian Lender and any of the Canadian Obligations continued, and the Canadian Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender, and the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Canadian Administrative Agent (or the Required Canadian Lenders or all Canadian Lenders, as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender for the payment of the Canadian Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Canadian Administrative Agent nor any Canadian Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Canadian Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or any property subject thereto, except to the extent required by applicable law.

Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. Each Guarantor waives to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Canadian Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Section 2; the Canadian Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2; and all dealings between each of the Canadian Borrower and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2. Each Guarantor waives to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Canadian Borrower or the Guarantors with respect to the Canadian Obligations. Each Guarantor understands and agrees that to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law the guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the Canadian Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Canadian Borrower or any other Person against the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (other than a defense of payment or performance) (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Canadian Borrower or such Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Canadian Borrower for its Canadian Obligations, or of such other Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Section 2, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Canadian Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Canadian Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian

Lender to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Canadian Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Canadian Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

Reinstatement. The guarantee of any Guarantor contained in this Section 2 shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Canadian Obligations guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Canadian Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Canadian Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

Payments. Each Guarantor hereby guarantees that payments hereunder will be paid to the Canadian Administrative Agent without set-off or counterclaim in Dollars at the Funding Office.

GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST

Security Interest. Each Grantor hereby assigns and transfers to the Canadian Administrative Agent, and hereby grants to the Canadian Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in, all of the following property now owned or at any time hereafter acquired by such Grantor or in which such Grantor now has or at any time in the future may acquire any right, title or interest (collectively, the “Collateral”), as collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of such Grantor’s Obligations:

all Inventory;

all Pledged Stock and all Proceeds and products thereof; and

solely for the purpose of enabling the Canadian Administrative Agent to exercise its rights and remedies hereunder following the occurrence of an Event of Default while same is continuing and only to the extent so required, all books and records pertaining to the Collateral;

(d) to the extent not otherwise included, all Proceeds and products of any and all of the foregoing and all collateral security and guarantees given by any Person with respect to any of the foregoing except for Excluded Property;

provided, however, that notwithstanding any of the other provisions set forth in this Section 3, this Agreement shall not constitute a grant of a security interest in (i) any Excluded Property; (ii) any Inventory or books and records pertaining thereto or Proceeds of any of the foregoing, of a US Grantor or a Grantor incorporated or otherwise organized outside Canada; (ii) any property to the extent that such grant of a security interest is prohibited by any Requirements of Law of a Governmental Authority, requires a consent not obtained of any Governmental Authority pursuant to such Requirement of Law or is prohibited by, or constitutes a breach or default under or results in the termination of or requires any consent not obtained under, any contract, license, agreement, instrument or other document evidencing or giving rise to such property or, in the case of any Pledged Stock, any applicable shareholder or similar agreement, except to the extent that such Requirement of Law or the term in such contract, license, agreement, instrument or other document or shareholder or similar agreement providing for such prohibition, breach, default or termination or requiring such consent is ineffective under applicable law; (iv) any property that would otherwise be

included in the Collateral if and to the extent such property is subject to a Lien permitted by clauses (b), (c) or (d) of Section 7.3 of the Credit Agreement or if and to the extent such Property is the subject of a sale and leaseback transaction permitted by Section 7.3 of the Credit Agreement; and (v) assets sold to a Person that is not a Global Group Member in compliance with the Credit Agreement. It is hereby understood and agreed that any property described in the preceding proviso, and any property that is otherwise expressly excluded from clauses (i) through (v) above, shall be excluded from the definition of “Collateral”.

Limitation. Anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Grantor hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall in no event exceed the amount of indebtedness which can be secured by such Grantor under applicable federal, state and provincial laws relating to the insolvency of debtors and, in the case of each Grantor governed by the Companies Act (Quebec), without limiting the generality of the foregoing, under Article 123.66 of the Companies Act (Quebec) (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 2.2 to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law).

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

To induce the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders to enter into the Credit Agreement and to induce the Canadian Lenders to make their respective extensions of credit to the Canadian Borrower thereunder, each Canadian Loan Party (in each case, for itself, and in the case of the Canadian Borrower, for itself and each other Canadian Loan Party) hereby represents and warrants (in the case of the Closing Date, immediately after giving effect to the Transactions) to the Canadian Administrative Agent and each Canadian Lender that:

Title; No Other Liens. Except for the security interest granted to the Canadian Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Canadian Lenders pursuant to this Agreement and the other Liens permitted to exist on the Collateral owned by each Grantor by the Credit Agreement, such Grantor owns each item of the Collateral free and clear of any and all Liens of others. No financing statement or other similar public notice with respect to all or any part of the Collateral is on file or of record in any public office, except such as (i) have been filed in favor of the Canadian Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Canadian Lenders, pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) are permitted by the Credit Agreement.

Perfected First Priority Liens. The security interests granted pursuant to this Agreement (a) upon completion of the filings and other actions specified on Schedule 3 will constitute valid perfected security interests in all of the Collateral in favor of the Canadian Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Canadian Lenders, as collateral security for each Grantor’s Obligations, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof against all creditors of such Grantor (i) other than buyers in good faith in the Ordinary Course of Business, as provided for in Section 28 of the PPSA, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law) or by an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing and are prior to all other Liens on the Collateral except for Liens permitted by the Credit Agreement, and (ii) Liens which have priority over the Liens on the Collateral by operation of law.

Jurisdiction of Organization; Chief Executive Office. On the date hereof, such Canadian Loan Party’s jurisdiction of organization, identification number from the jurisdiction of organization (if any), and the location of such Canadian Loan Party’s chief executive office or sole place of business, as the case may be, are specified on Schedule 4. Such Canadian Loan Party has furnished to the Canadian Administrative Agent a certified charter, certificate of incorporation or other organization document and long-form good standing certificate as of a date which is recent to the date hereof.

Inventory. On the date hereof, Inventory (other than mobile goods) in excess of $500,000 are kept at the locations listed on Schedule 5.

Pledged Stock. (xxvii) The shares of Pledged Stock pledged by such Grantor hereunder constitute all the issued and outstanding shares of all classes of the Capital Stock of each Issuer owned by such Grantor.

All the shares of the Pledged Stock have been duly and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable.

On the date hereof, all Certificated Securities evidencing Pledged Stock (together with any undated stock power duly executed in blank) have been delivered to the Canadian Administrative Agent.

Such Grantor is the record or beneficial owner of, and has good and marketable title to, the Pledged Stock pledged by it hereunder, free of any and all Liens except (i) the Liens created by the Security Documents, and (ii) other Liens permitted by the Credit Agreement or arising by operation of law.

Attachment

On the date hereof, such Grantor acknowledges that (i) value has been given, (ii) it has rights in the Collateral granted by such Grantor (other than after-acquired Collateral), (iii) it has not agreed to postpone the time of attachment of the security interests granted pursuant to this Agreement, and (iv) it has received a duplicate original copy of this Agreement.

COVENANTS

Each Grantor covenants and agrees with the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders that, from and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier to occur of (i) the date upon which the Canadian Obligations shall have been paid in full, no Letter of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower shall be outstanding (that is not cash collateralized to the reasonable satisfaction of the Issuing Lender in respect thereof) and the Revolving Commitments of the Canadian Lenders shall have terminated, and (ii) as to any Grantor, the date upon which all the Capital Stock of such Grantor shall have been sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement:

Delivery of Certificated Securities. If any of the Pledged Stock of such Grantor is or shall become evidenced or represented by any Certificated Security, such Certificated Security (together with any undated stock power or note power, as the case may be, duly executed in blank) shall be promptly delivered to the Canadian Administrative Agent, to be held as Collateral pursuant to this Agreement.

Maintenance of Insurance. Such Grantor that is a Material Subsidiary will to the extent commercially reasonable maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies (or via self-insurance, including insurance written by the Canadian Borrower to its Subsidiaries), insurance substantially in such amounts and against such risks as are customarily maintained by companies engaged in the same or similar business operating in the same or similar locations. All such insurance maintained in respect of any Grantor (other than a US Grantor) shall name the Canadian Administrative Agent as insured party or loss payee.

Maintenance of Perfected Security Interest; Further Documentation. (xxviii) Such Grantor shall maintain the security interest created by this Agreement in such Grantor’s Collateral as a perfected security interest having at least the priority described in Section 4.2, to the extent required herein, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to defend such security interest against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever, subject to the rights of such Grantor under the Loan Documents to dispose of the Collateral and claims or demands resulting from Liens permitted under the Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (including any provision for, reference to, or acknowledgement of, any Lien or Permitted Encumbrance), nothing herein and no approval by the Canadian Administrative Agent or Canadian Lenders of any Lien or Permitted Encumbrance (whether such approval is oral or in writing) shall be construed as or deemed to constitute a subordination by the Canadian Administrative Agent or the Canadian Lenders of any security interest or other right, interest or Lien in or to the Collateral or any part thereof in favour of any Lien or Permitted Encumbrance or any holder of any Lien or Permitted Encumbrance.

Such Grantor will furnish to the Canadian Administrative Agent from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Grantor’s Collateral as the Canadian Administrative Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Canadian Administrative Agent, and at the sole expense of such Grantor, such Grantor will promptly and duly execute and deliver such further instruments and documents and take such further actions as the Canadian Administrative Agent may reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted; provided that in no event shall any Grantor be required to perfect any Lien by means other than the delivery of Pledged Stock in accordance with Sections 5.1 and 5.4 and the making of filings, registrations and recordings required for perfection under applicable personal property security laws, to the extent required by the terms hereof.

Changes in Name, etc. Each Grantor agrees (i) promptly to notify the Canadian Administrative Agent of any change in such Grantor’s jurisdiction of organization, chief executive office, sole place of business or location of assets other than locations listed on Schedule 5 hereto or any change in such Grantor’s name, and (ii) promptly to deliver all additional financing statements and other documents reasonably requested by the Canadian Administrative Agent to maintain the validity, perfection and priority of the security interests provided for herein.

Pledged Stock. (xxix) If such Grantor shall become entitled to receive or shall receive any certificate (including, without limitation, any certificate representing a dividend or a distribution in connection with any reclassification, increase or reduction of capital or any certificate issued in connection with any reorganization), option or rights in respect of the Capital Stock of any Issuer, whether in addition to, in substitution of, as a conversion of, or in exchange for, any shares of the Pledged Stock, or otherwise in respect thereof, such Grantor shall accept the same as the agent of the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders, hold the same in trust for the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders and deliver the same forthwith to the Canadian Administrative Agent in the exact form received, duly endorsed by such Grantor to the Canadian Administrative Agent, if required, together with an undated stock power covering such certificate duly executed in blank by such Grantor and with, if the Canadian Administrative Agent so requests, signature guaranteed, to be held by the Canadian Administrative Agent, subject to the terms hereof, as additional collateral security for such Grantor’s Obligations (subject to the proviso to Section 3). Any sums paid upon or in respect of the Pledged Stock upon the liquidation or dissolution of any Issuer (except any liquidation or dissolution of any Subsidiary in accordance with the Credit Agreement) shall be paid over to the Canadian Administrative Agent to be held by it hereunder as additional collateral security for such Grantor’s Obligations, and in case any distribution of capital shall be made on or in respect of the Pledged Stock or any property shall be distributed upon or with respect to the Pledged Stock pursuant to the recapitalization or reclassification of the capital of any Issuer or pursuant to the reorganization thereof, the property so distributed shall, unless otherwise subject to a perfected security interest in favor of the Canadian Administrative Agent, be delivered to the Canadian Administrative Agent to be held by it hereunder as additional collateral security for such Grantor’s Obligations. If any sums of money or property so paid or distributed in respect of the Pledged Stock shall be received by such Grantor, such Grantor shall, until such money or property is paid or delivered to the Canadian Administrative Agent, hold such money or property in trust for the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, as additional collateral security for such Grantor’s Obligations.

Without the prior written consent of the Canadian Administrative Agent, such Grantor will not (i) sell, assign, transfer, exchange, or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, the Pledged Stock or Proceeds thereof (except pursuant to a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement), (ii) create, incur or permit to exist any Lien or option in favor of, or any material adverse claim of any Person with respect to, any of the Pledged Stock or Proceeds thereof, or any interest therein, except for (A) the security interests created by this Agreement or (B) Liens permitted under the Credit Agreement or arising by operation of law, or (iii) enter into any agreement or undertaking restricting the right or ability of such Grantor or the Canadian Administrative Agent to sell, assign or transfer any of the Pledged Stock or Proceeds thereof (except as permitted by the Credit Agreement).

In the case of each Guarantor and/or Grantor which is an Issuer, such Issuer agrees that (i) it will be bound by the terms of this Agreement relating to the Pledged Stock issued by it and will comply with such terms insofar as such terms are applicable to it, and (ii) it will take all actions required or reasonably requested by the Canadian Administrative Agent to enable or permit each Grantor to comply with Sections 6.1(c) and 6.4 as to all Pledged Stock issued by it.

REMEDIAL PROVISIONS

Pledged Stock. (xxx) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Canadian Administrative Agent shall have given notice to the relevant Grantor of the Canadian Administrative Agent’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Section 6.1(b), each Grantor shall be permitted to receive all cash dividends and other distributions paid in respect of the Pledged Stock to the extent permitted in the Credit Agreement, and to exercise all voting and corporate or other organizational rights with respect to the Pledged Stock.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Canadian Administrative Agent shall give notice of its intent to exercise such rights to the relevant Grantor or Grantors, (i) the Canadian Administrative Agent shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Pledged Stock and make application thereof to the Canadian Obligations in such order as set forth in Section 6.2, and (ii) any or all of the Pledged Stock shall be registered in the name of the Canadian Administrative Agent or its nominee, and the Canadian Administrative Agent or its nominee may thereafter exercise (x) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to such Pledged Stock at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant Issuer or Issuers or otherwise and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Pledged Stock as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged Stock upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate or other organizational structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by any Grantor or the Canadian Administrative Agent of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Pledged Stock, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Stock with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Canadian Administrative Agent may determine), all without liability (other than to the extent such liabilities are found by a court of competent jurisdiction (or a settlement tantamount thereto) to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Canadian Administrative Agent) except to account for property actually received by it, but the Canadian Administrative Agent shall have no duty to any Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

Each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Canadian Administrative Agent in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying, and (ii) if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the relevant Issuer of its intent to exercise its rights pursuant to Section 6.1(b), pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Pledged Stock directly to the Canadian Administrative Agent.

Application of Proceeds. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Canadian Loans have been accelerated pursuant to Section 8 of the Credit Agreement, at any time at the Canadian Administrative Agent’s election, the Canadian Administrative Agent may apply all or any part of Proceeds constituting Collateral and any proceeds of the guarantee set forth in Section 2, in payment of the Canadian Obligations in the following order:

First, to pay incurred and unpaid reasonable, out-of-pocket fees and expenses of the Canadian Administrative Agent acting on behalf of the Canadian Lenders under the Loan Documents;

Second, to the Canadian Administrative Agent, for application by it towards payment of amounts then due and owing and remaining unpaid in respect of the Canadian Obligations, pro rata among the Secured Parties according to the amounts of the Canadian Obligations then due and owing and remaining unpaid to the Secured Parties; and any balance remaining after the Canadian Obligations shall have been paid in full, no Letters of Credit for the account of the Canadian Borrower shall be outstanding (that are not cash collateralized to the reasonable satisfaction of the Issuing Lender in respect thereof) and the Revolving Commitments of the Canadian Lenders shall have terminated shall be paid over to the Canadian Borrower or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.

PPSA and Other Remedies.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing,

(a) The Canadian Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Canadian Lenders, may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Canadian Obligations to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the PPSA or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Canadian Administrative Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below or notices otherwise required under the Loan Documents) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived unless otherwise provided in the Loan Documents), may in such circumstances forthwith, subject to pre-existing rights and licenses, collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Canadian Administrative Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Canadian Administrative Agent at places which the Canadian Administrative Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. The Canadian Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 6.3, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind actually incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Canadian Obligations, in order of priority as specified in Section 6.2 above, and only after such application and after the payment by the Canadian Canadian Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, need the Canadian Canadian Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition.

(b) The Canadian Administrative Agent may, in addition to any other rights it may have, appoint by instrument in writing a receiver or receiver and manager (both of which are herein called a “Receiver”) of all or any part of the Collateral or may institute proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of such a Receiver. Any such Receiver is hereby given and shall have the same powers and rights and exclusions and limitations of liability as the Canadian Administrative Agent has under this Agreement, at law or in equity. In exercising any such powers, any such Receiver shall, to the extent permitted by law, act as and for all purposes shall be deemed to be the agent of the Grantor and the Canadian Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for any act or default of any such Receiver. The Canadian Administrative Agent may appoint one or more

Receivers hereunder and may remove any such Receiver or Receivers and appoint another or others in his or their stead from time to time. Any Receiver so appointed may be an officer or employee of the Canadian Administrative Agent. A court need not appoint, ratify the appointment by the Canadian Administrative Agent of or otherwise supervise in any manner the actions of any Receiver. Upon any Grantor receiving notice from the Canadian Administrative Agent of the taking of possession of the Collateral or the appointment of a Receiver, all powers, functions, rights and privileges of each of the directors and officers of such Grantor with respect to the Collateral shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, cease, unless specifically continued by the written consent of the Canadian Administrative Agent.

Registration Rights. (xxxi) If the Canadian Administrative Agent shall determine to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Pledged Stock pursuant to Section 6.3, and if in the opinion of the Canadian Administrative Agent it is necessary or advisable to have the Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, registered under the provisions of the Securities Act, the relevant Grantor will cause the Issuer thereof to (i) execute and deliver, and cause the directors and officers of such Issuer to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be, in the opinion of the Canadian Administrative Agent, necessary or advisable to register the Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, under the provisions of the Securities Act, (ii) use its best efforts to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for a period of one year from the date of the first public offering of the Pledged Stock, or that portion thereof to be sold, and (iii) make all amendments thereto and/or to the related prospectus which, in the opinion of the Canadian Administrative Agent, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or of any securities regulatory authority applicable thereto. Each Grantor agrees to cause such Issuer to comply with the provisions of the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of any and all jurisdictions which the Canadian Administrative Agent shall designate and to make available to its security holders, as soon as practicable, to the extent applicable, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) which will satisfy the provisions of the Securities Act.

Each Grantor recognizes that the Canadian Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Stock, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act (or other applicable securities legislation) or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Canadian Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act even if such Issuer would agree to do so.

Each Grantor agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Stock pursuant to this Section 6.4 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Requirements of Law. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 6.4 will cause irreparable injury to the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders, that the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 6.4 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred under the Credit Agreement.

Subordination. Each Canadian Loan Party hereby agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, unless otherwise agreed by the Canadian Administrative Agent, all Indebtedness owing by it to any Subsidiary of the Canadian Borrower shall be fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of such Canadian Loan Party’s Obligations.

Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Guarantor Obligations and the reasonable fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Canadian Administrative Agent to collect such deficiency.

Grant of Intellectual Property License. Solely for the purpose of enabling the Canadian Administrative Agent to exercise the rights and remedies under this Section 6.7 at such time as the Canadian Administrative Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies and only to the extent so required, the Grantor hereby (a) grants to the Canadian Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders, an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantor) to use, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property rights now owned or hereafter acquired by the Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof and (b) irrevocably agrees that the Canadian Administrative Agent may sell any of the Grantor’s Inventory directly to any person, including without limitation persons who have previously purchased the Grantor’s Inventory from the Grantor and in connection with any such sale or other enforcement of the Canadian Administrative Agent’s rights under this Agreement, may sell Inventory which bears any Trade-▇▇▇▇ owned by or licensed to the Grantor and any Inventory that is covered by any Copyright owned by or licensed to the Grantor and the Canadian Administrative Agent may finish any work in process and affix any Trade-▇▇▇▇ owned by or licensed to the Grantor and sell such Inventory as provided herein.

THE CANADIAN ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Canadian Administrative Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc. (xxxii) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Canadian Administrative Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be reasonably necessary to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Canadian Administrative Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following:

in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and endorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other Instruments for the payment of moneys due with respect to any Collateral other than Excluded Property of such Grantor and file any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Canadian Administrative Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due with respect to any Collateral other than Excluded Property of such Grantor whenever payable;

execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 6.3 or 6.4, any endorsements, assignments or other Instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral of such Grantor; and

(1) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral other than Excluded Property of such Grantor to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Canadian Administrative Agent or as the Canadian Administrative Agent shall direct; (2) ask or demand for, collect, and receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral other than Excluded Property of such Grantor; (3) sign and indorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with

any of the Collateral of such Grantor; (4) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral other than Excluded Property of such Grantor or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral of such Grantor; (5) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral of such Grantor; (6) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Canadian Administrative Agent may deem appropriate; and (7) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral of such Grantor as fully and completely as though the Canadian Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Canadian Administrative Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Canadian Administrative Agent deems reasonably necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral of such Grantor and the Canadian Administrative Agent’s and the Canadian Lenders’ security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

Anything in this Section 7.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Canadian Administrative Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 7.1(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

If any Canadian Loan Party fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the Canadian Administrative Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.

The expenses of the Canadian Administrative Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 7.1, shall be payable by the relevant Canadian Loan Party to the Canadian Administrative Agent on demand.

Each Canadian Loan Party hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable with respect to such Canadian Loan Party until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests in the Collateral of such Canadian Loan Party, if applicable, created hereby are released.

Duty of Canadian Administrative Agent. To the extent permitted by applicable law , the Canadian Administrative Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Canadian Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Canadian Administrative Agent, any Canadian Lender nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person, except as otherwise provided herein, or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders hereunder are solely to protect the Canadian Administrative Agent’s and the Canadian Lenders’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender to exercise any such powers. The Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Canadian Loan Party for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct or that of their officers, directors, employees or agents.

Execution of Financing Statements Pursuant to any applicable law, each Grantor authorizes the Canadian Administrative Agent to file or record financing statements and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral without the signature of such Grantor in such form and in such offices

as the Canadian Administrative Agent determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Canadian Administrative Agent under this Agreement. Each Grantor hereby ratifies and authorizes the filing by the Canadian Administrative Agent of any financing statement with respect to the Collateral made prior to the date hereof. The Canadian Administrative Agent agrees to notify the relevant Grantor of any financing or continuation statement filed by it, provided that any failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of such filing.

Authority of Canadian Administrative Agent. Each Canadian Loan Party acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Canadian Administrative Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Canadian Administrative Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Canadian Administrative Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Loan Parties, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Canadian Lenders with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Canadian Loan Party shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

MISCELLANEOUS

Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in accordance with Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement.

Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Loan Party hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section 10.2 of the Credit Agreement; provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Guarantor shall be addressed to such Guarantor at its notice address set forth on Schedule 1.

No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Canadian Administrative Agent nor any Canadian Lender shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 8.1), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Canadian Administrative Agent or such Canadian Lender would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification. (xxxiii) Each Guarantor agrees to pay or reimburse the Canadian Administrative Agent for all its costs and expenses incurred in collecting against such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in Section 2 or otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party, including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel to the Canadian Administrative Agent.

Each Guarantor agrees to pay, and to save the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any present or future Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) that arise from any payment by the Guarantor under this Agreement.

Each Guarantor agrees to pay, and to save the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement to the extent the Canadian Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement.

The agreements in this Section 8.4 shall survive repayment of the Canadian Obligations and all other amounts payable by the Canadian Borrower under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Canadian Loan Party and shall inure to the benefit of the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders and their successors and assigns; provided that no Canadian Loan Party may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Canadian Administrative Agent.

Set-Off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Canadian Lenders provided by law, each Canadian Lender shall, after the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, have the right, without prior notice to any Canadian Loan Party, any such notice being expressly waived by each Canadian Loan Party to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any Obligations becoming due and payable by any Canadian Loan Party (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to apply to the payment of such Obligations, by setoff or otherwise, any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Canadian Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of such Canadian Loan Party. Each Canadian Lender agrees promptly to notify the relevant Canadian Loan Party and the Canadian Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Canadian Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application.

Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement of the Canadian Loan Parties, the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Canadian Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Canadian Administrative Agent or any Canadian Lender relative to subject matter hereof and thereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

(xxxiv) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE PROVINCE OF ONTARIO, AND THE LAWS OF CANADA APPLICABLE THEREIN.

Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Ontario, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;

agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such Canadian Loan Party at its address referred to in Section 8.2 or at such other address of which the Canadian Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto; and

agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to ▇▇▇ in any other jurisdiction.

Judgment Currency. (xxxv) The obligations of any Canadian Loan Party hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to make payments in U.S. Dollars or in Canadian Dollars, as the case may be (for the purposes of this Section 8.13, the “Obligation Currency”), shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Canadian Administrative Agent or a Lender of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the Canadian Administrative Agent or a Canadian Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Canadian Loan Party or any Canadian Lenders in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (for the purposes of this Section 8.13, such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the rate of exchange prevailing, in each case, as of the date immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given (for the purposes of this Section 8.13, such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).

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

For purposes of determining the prevailing rate of exchange, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency.

Acknowledgements. Each Canadian Loan Party hereby acknowledges that:

it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party;

neither the Canadian Administrative Agent nor any Canadian Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Canadian Loan Party arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Canadian Loan Parties, on the one hand, and the Canadian Administrative Agent and Canadian Lenders, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Canadian Lenders or among the Canadian Loan Parties and the Canadian Lenders.

Additional Canadian Loan Parties. Each Subsidiary of the Canadian Borrower that is required to become a party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement shall become a Canadian Loan Party and Grantor for all purposes of this Agreement upon execution and delivery by such Subsidiary of an Assumption Agreement in the form of Annex 1 hereto.

Releases. (xxxvi) At such time as the Canadian Obligations (other than Canadian Obligations in respect of Specified Swap Agreements) shall have been paid in full, the Revolving Commitments of the Canadian Lenders have been terminated and no Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower shall be outstanding (that are not cash collateralized to the reasonable satisfaction of the Issuing Lender in respect thereof), the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created hereby, and this Agreement and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Canadian Administrative Agent and each Canadian Loan Party hereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Grantors. At the request and sole expense of any Grantor following any such termination, the Canadian Administrative Agent shall deliver to such Grantor any Collateral held by the Canadian Administrative Agent hereunder, and execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

If any of the Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of by any Grantor (to any Person other than a Global Group Member) in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, then the Lien pursuant to this Agreement on such sold transferred or otherwise disposed of Collateral shall be automatically released, and the Canadian Administrative Agent, at the request and sole expense of such Grantor, shall execute and deliver to such Grantor all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable to evidence the release of the Liens created hereby on such Collateral. At the request and sole expense of the Canadian Borrower, a Canadian Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations hereunder in the event that all the Capital Stock of such Canadian Subsidiary Guarantor shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement (to any Person other than a Global Group Member) in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement and the Canadian Administrative Agent, at the request and sole expense of such Grantor, shall execute and deliver to such Grantor all releases or other documents reasonably necessary to evidence the release of such obligations.

(xxxvii) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH CANADIAN LOAN PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the undersigned has caused this Guarantee and Collateral Agreement to be duly executed and delivered as of the date first above written.
