(c) If prior to the time a Revolving Credit Loan would have otherwise been made pursuant to Section 2.8(b), one of the events described in Section 8(g) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Borrower, or if for any other reason, as determined by the Swing Line Lender in its sole discretion, Revolving Credit Loans may not be made as contemplated by Section 2.8(b), each Revolving Credit Lender shall, on the date such Revolving Credit Loan was to have been made pursuant to the notice referred to in Section 2.8(b) (the “Refunding Date”), purchase for cash in the Applicable Currency an undivided participating interest in the then outstanding Swing Line Loans by paying to the Swing Line Lender an amount (the “Swing Line Participation Amount”) equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding which were to have been repaid with such Revolving Credit Loans.

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

(e) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make the Loans referred to in Section 2.8(b) and to purchase participating interests pursuant to Section 2.8(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender or the Borrower may have against the Swing Line Lender, the 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 Borrower; (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Revolving Credit Lender; or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

2.9 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent in the Applicable Currency to the applicable Administrative Agent’s Account for the account of the appropriate Lender, (i) the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan of such Revolving Credit Lender on the Revolving Credit Termination Date, (ii) the then unpaid principal amount of each Swing Line Loan of such Swing Line Lender on the Revolving Credit Termination Date, (iii) the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan B on the Term Loan B Maturity Date, and (iv) the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan C on the Term Loan C Maturity Date. The Borrower hereby further agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loans from time to time outstanding from the date hereof until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Section 2.16.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain a register and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder (the “Registered Loans”) and any Note evidencing such Loan, the Type of such Loan and each Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by such Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof (the “Register”).

(d) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to Section 2.9(c) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) The Borrower agrees that, upon request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, the Borrower will promptly execute and deliver to such Lender (or, if requested by

such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) a promissory note of the Borrower evidencing any Term Loans, Revolving Credit Loans or Swing Line Loans, as the case may be, of such Lender, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agents and the applicable Lender; provided that delivery of Notes shall not be a condition precedent to the occurrence of the Closing Date or the making of the Loans on the Closing Date and the obligations of the Borrower in respect of each Loan shall be enforceable in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents whether or not evidenced by any Note.

(f) If, notwithstanding the terms of this Agreement, any Agent receives any payment from or on behalf of the Borrower in a currency other than the Applicable Currency, such Agent may convert the payment (including, without limitation, the monetary proceeds of any realization upon any Collateral and any funds then held in a cash collateral account) into the Applicable Currency at the Currency Exchange Rate in the manner contemplated by Section 10.18. To the extent permitted by law, the obligation shall be satisfied only to the extent of the amount actually received by such Agent upon such conversion.

2.10 Fees.

(a) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender, a commitment fee in Dollars for the period from and including the date hereof to the last day of the Revolving Credit Commitment Period, computed at the Commitment Fee Rate, on the average daily amount of the Available Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender during the period for which payment is made, payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month and on the Revolving Credit Termination Date, commencing on the first of such dates to occur after the date hereof.

(b) The Borrower shall pay, in accordance with the terms of the Fee Letter, the fees set forth in the Fee Letter, in Dollars, as and when due and payable under the terms of the Fee Letter.

2.11 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ written notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate the Revolving Credit Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that no such termination or reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitments. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000, or a whole multiple thereof, and shall reduce permanently the Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect.

Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided, that a notice of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition in not satisfied.

2.12 Optional Prepayments.

(a) Subject to Section 2.12(c), the Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Revolving Credit Loans or Swing Line Loans, in whole or in part, in the Applicable Currency without premium or penalty (except as otherwise provided herein), upon, in the case the Revolving Credit Loans, (x) irrevocable written notice (except as provided below) delivered to the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days prior thereto, in the case of Revolving Credit Eurodollar Loans, and (y) irrevocable written notice (except as provided below) delivered to the Administrative Agent at least one Business Day prior thereto, in the case of Revolving Credit Base Rate Loans, which notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and whether such prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans or Base Rate Loans; provided, that if a Eurodollar Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay, in Dollars, any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.23. No prior notice is required for the prepayment of Swing Line Loans. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. Except as provided below, if any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable, in the Applicable Currency, on the date specified therein, together with (except in the case of Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans and Swing Line Loans) accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided, that a notice of prepayment delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition in not satisfied. Partial prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof. Partial prepayments of Swing Line Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $100,000 or a whole multiple thereof.

(b) Subject to Sections 2.12(c) and (d), the Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Term Loan B or the Term Loan C, in whole or in part, upon irrevocable written notice (except as provided below) delivered to the Administrative Agent, at least three Business Days prior thereto in the case of Eurodollar Loans and at least one Business Day prior thereto in the case of Base Rate Loans, which notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment, and whether such prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans or Base Rate Loans; provided (i) the Availability is not less than $25,000,000 after giving effect to such prepayment, (ii) that if a Eurodollar Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay in Dollars any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.23 and (ii) so long as an Event of Default is not continuing, no prepayment of the Term Loan C pursuant to this Section 2.12(b) shall be permitted until the Term Loan B is prepaid or repaid in whole. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. Except as provided below, if any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable in Dollars on the date specified therein,

together with accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided, that a notice of prepayment delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition in not satisfied. Partial prepayments of Term Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof.

(c) At any time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all payments under this Agreement and all proceeds of Collateral shall be applied to the Obligations pursuant to Section 2.19.

(d) Each prepayment of a Term Loan under Section 2.12(b) shall be accompanied by the payment of and the Borrower agrees to pay an additional amount, in Dollars, equal to the Applicable Prepayment Premium. The Applicable Prepayment Premium, in each case, shall be paid to and for the account of the Lenders whose Term Loans are being prepaid under Section 2.12(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Borrower makes a prepayment of a Term Loan under Section 2.12(b) from proceeds on deposit in the Collection Account, no Applicable Prepayment Premium shall be due if the proceeds paid out of the Collection Account constitute proceeds for which no Applicable Prepayment Premium would have been due under Section 2.13 if such proceeds were instead applied to the Loans as a mandatory prepayment at the time such proceeds were deposited in the Collection Account.

2.13 Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) Subject to Section 2.13(l), on or before the third Business Day following the date of any Asset Sale or Recovery Event by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, the Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans (such payments to be applied as set forth in Section 2.13(g)) in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received by such Person in connection with such Asset Sale or Recovery Event to the extent that the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds received by the Parent and any of its Subsidiaries (and not paid to the Administrative Agent as a prepayment of the Loans) shall exceed $1,000,000 in any fiscal year of the Parent. Nothing contained in this subsection (a) shall permit the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to make an Asset Sale of any property other than in accordance with Section 7.5.

(b) If on any date any Capital Stock shall be issued by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (other than an Excluded Equity Issuance), then within 3 Business Days of such issuance, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans by an amount equal to the Capital Stock Issuance Proceeds, such amount to be applied as set forth in Section 2.13(g). If on any date any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness permitted under Section 7.2) shall be incurred by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, then within 3 Business Days of such incurrence, the Loans shall be prepaid by an amount equal to 100% of the amount of the proceeds of such incurrence (such amount to be applied as set forth in Section 2.13(g)).

(c) If, as of the last day of any fiscal year of the Parent, commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006, the Parent and its Subsidiaries shall have Excess Cash

Each such prepayment shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”) that is no later than April 30 of each year.

(d) If at any time during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period (x) the amount of the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit exceeds the lesser of (i) the then current Borrowing Base and (ii) the Total Revolving Credit Commitments or (y) the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans exceeds the Maximum Revolving Credit Cash Amount, the Borrower shall, without notice or demand, prepay, the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to such excess; provided that if the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans then outstanding is less than the amount of such excess (because Letter of Credit Usage constitutes a portion thereof), the Borrower shall, to the extent of the balance of such excess, cash collateralize such Letters of Credit in the Applicable Currency in an amount equal to 105% of the Letter of Credit Usage.

(e) Subject to Section 2.13(l), on or before the third Business Day following the date upon which the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries shall receive any Extraordinary Receipt, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to the amount of such Extraordinary Receipt (such amount to be applied as set forth in Section 2.13(g)).

(f) If, during any month the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries shall receive any Duty Refunds, then, on the fifth Business Day of the immediately succeeding month, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to 75% of the amount of all such Duty Refunds received during such month, net of any reasonable expenses incurred in collection thereof and net of any Canadian federal and provincial income taxes incurred in connection therewith calculated at the applicable Canadian statutory rate (such amount to be applied as set forth in Section 2.13(g)).

(g) At any time in the absence of a continuing Event of Default, the prepayments required under Sections 2.13(a), (b), (c), (e) and (f) above shall be applied as follows:

All amounts paid to the Term Loans under this Section 2.13(g)(ii) and due pursuant to Sections 2.13(b) shall be accompanied by the payment of the Applicable Prepayment Premium on the amount prepaid pursuant thereto. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, there shall be no the Applicable Prepayment Premium payable with respect to any payments made under this Section 2.13(g)(ii) and due pursuant to Sections 2.13(c) and (f); and

(iii) With respect to any amount payable under Section 2.13 (e), such amounts shall be paid in the Applicable Currency and applied as follows: (A) any Extraordinary Receipt which constitutes Proceeds of Revolving Priority Collateral, shall be paid (1) first, to the Swing Line Loans until paid in full, (2) second, to the Revolving Credit Loans until paid in full, (3) third, to the Term Loan B until paid in full, and (4) fourth to the Term Loan C until paid in full; and (B) any Extraordinary Receipt which constitutes Proceeds of Term Priority Collateral shall be paid (1) first, to the Term Loan B until paid in full, (2) second, to the Term Loan C until paid in full, (3) third, to the Swing Line Loans until paid in full, and (4) fourth, the Revolving Credit Loans until paid in full, and (C) any Extraordinary Receipt which includes both (1) Proceeds of Revolving Priority Collateral and (2) Proceeds of Term Priority Collateral, shall be applied as follows: (x) an amount equal to the Extraordinary Receipts constituting Revolving Priority Collateral shall be applied (I) first, to the Swing Line Loans until paid in full, and (II) second, to the Revolving Credit Loans until paid in full; and (y) the remaining proceeds shall be applied (I) first, to the Term Loan B until paid in full, (II) second, to the Term Loan C until paid in full, (III) third, to the Swing Line Loans until paid in full, and (IV) fourth, to the Revolving Credit Loans until paid in full. All amounts paid to the Term Loans under this Section 2.13(g)(iii) shall be accompanied by the payment of the Applicable Prepayment Premium on the amount prepaid pursuant thereto.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, prepayments required under this Section 2.13 shall be applied in the manner set forth in

Section 2.19(a). The prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall not reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments.

(h) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and in the event that amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments or repayments of the principal amount of the Term Loans C pursuant to Section 2.13(g) would exceed 25% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans C as of the Closing Date at any time prior to the Catch-up Date, the Borrower shall follow the procedures set forth in (i) in connection with any payments required by Sections 2.13(a), Section 2.13(i), and (ii) in all other cases, Sections 2.13(j) and (k).

(i) If a prepayment pursuant to Section 2.13(a) is required to be applied to Term Loan C and Section 2.13(h) requires the Borrower to follow the procedures set forth in this Section, the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days of such Asset Sale or Recovery Event a notice requesting that the Administrative Agent prepare and provide to each Term Loan C Lender a notice (each, an “Asset Sale or Recovery Prepayment Option Notice”) as described below in this paragraph. As promptly as practicable and in any event within 5 Business Days after receiving such notice from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall send to each Term Loan C Lender an Asset Sale or Recovery Prepayment Option Notice, which shall include an offer by the Borrower to prepay, at par plus any Applicable Prepayment Premium, on the date (the “Asset Sale or Recovery Prepayment Date”) set forth in the Asset Sale or Recovery Prepayment Option Notice (the Asset Sale or Recovery Prepayment Date being in any event not less than 10 Business Days, and not more than 15 Business Days, after such Asset Sale or Recovery Prepayment Option Notice is sent to the Lenders), the Term Loans C of such Term Loan C Lender by an amount equal to such Term Loan C Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Net Cash Proceeds (the “Asset Sale or Recovery Prepayment Amount”). Each Term Loan C Lender shall return a completed Asset Sale or Recovery Prepayment Option Notice to the Administrative Agent to indicate acceptance of all, part or none of the Asset Sale or Recovery Prepayment Amount no later than 5 Business Days prior to the Asset Sale or Recovery Prepayment Date, with the failure to so return such notice being deemed to constitute a rejection of the relevant prepayment offer. To the extent any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds are declined, the Administrative Agent shall, on behalf of the Borrower, send to each Term Loan C Lender that has not rejected in full or in part the relevant prepayment offer, a notice (each, an “Asset Sale or Recovery Second Option Notice”), which will include an offer by the Borrower to prepay, at par plus any Applicable Prepayment Premium, on the relevant Asset Sale or Recovery Prepayment Date, the Term Loans C of such Term Loan C Lender by an amount equal to such Term Loan C Lender’s Pro Rata Share (calculated excluding the Term Loan C of any Lender that declined to receive all of such Lender’s Asset Sale or Recovery Prepayment Amount) of such declined Net Cash Proceeds. Each Term Loan C Lender shall return a completed Asset Sale or Recovery Second Option Notice to the Administrative Agent to indicate acceptance of all, part or none of the remaining Asset Sale or Recovery Prepayment Amount no later than 3 Business Days prior to the relevant Asset Sale or Recovery Prepayment Date. On each Asset Sale or Recovery Prepayment Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Term Loan C Lenders the aggregate amount necessary to prepay that portion of the outstanding Term Loans C in respect of which such Lenders have accepted prepayment as described above in this paragraph and all such amounts shall be accompanied by the payment of any Applicable Prepayment Premium that is due with respect to any such payment.

(j) If Section 2.13(h) requires the Borrower to follow the procedures set forth in this Section 2.13(j) and Section 2.13(k), then notwithstanding anything contained herein other than as set forth in Section 2.13(h), the aggregate amount of prepayments or repayments, as the case may be, required to be made pursuant to Sections 2.13(b), (c), (e) or (f), from the Closing Date to the first day after the fifth anniversary thereof (the “Catch-up Date”) in respect of Term Loan C shall not exceed 25% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans C as of the Closing Date. Within one Business Days following the Catch-up Date, the Borrower shall repay or prepay the Term Loans C in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amounts that should have been applied to the repayments or prepayments in respect of the Term Loans C but for this Section 2.13(j), and such payments shall be applied to the Term Loans C. Pending the prepayment described in the preceding sentence, the funds for such prepayment shall be maintained in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 2.13(k) below.

(k) Amounts that would have been applied, but for Section 2.13(j) above, to the prepayment of Term Loans C shall be deposited by the Borrower in a separate Collection Account (as defined below) for the benefit of the Term Loans C (the aggregate amounts so deposited, exclusive of any interest or earnings thereon, “Collection Account Deposits”). The Collateral Agent will, on the instructions of the Borrower, withdraw Collection Account Deposits on the occurrence of the first of: (i) the Borrower having fulfilled all of its obligations described in Section 2.13(j) (including the penultimate sentence thereof), or (ii) all outstanding Term Loans C having been paid in full. If the Borrower does not fulfill all of its obligations described in Section 2.13(j) within one Business Days following the Catch-up Date, the Collateral Agent may withdraw such amounts in the Collection Account necessary to fulfill the Borrower’s obligations set forth in Section 2.13(j). The Administrative Agent shall apply any cash deposited in the Collection Account that is withdrawn by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence to prepay the Term Loans C. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Collection Account” shall mean an account established by the Borrower over which the Collateral Agent shall have a fully perfected first priority security interest, including the exclusive right of withdrawal to fulfill the Borrower’s obligations pursuant to Section 2.13(j) where the Borrower has not otherwise fulfilled its obligations existing in accordance with the terms of Section 2.13(j). The Collateral Agent will, on the instructions of the Borrower, invest amounts on deposit in the Collection Account in Cash Equivalents that mature or that can be liquidated for their cash value on or prior to the Catch-up Date, provided, however, that (i) no Investment will be made on behalf of the Borrower that, in the sole judgment of the Collateral Agent, would result in any violation of any Requirement of Law, and (ii) Investments permitted under this Section 2.13(k) shall be subjected to a first priority perfected security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent. So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, and subject to the following sentence, the Borrower may, provide written instructions to the Collateral Agent to, and the Collateral Agent shall, withdraw any interest and profits received on the Investments from the cash on deposit in such account. The Borrower shall ensure that the aggregate value of the Collection Account is not less than the Collection Account Deposits and shall contribute to the Collection Account an amount to cover any deficiency as and when required by the Collateral Agent. Other than any interest and profits earned on such Investments, the Collection Account shall not bear interest. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default the Collateral Agent may, in its sole discretion, withdraw amounts on deposit in the Collection Account and apply such funds, first, to satisfy any of the outstanding Obligations with respect to the Term Loans C and second in accordance with Section 2.19(a).

(l) Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to proceeds that the Borrower is required to use to prepay the Loans in connection with (i) an Asset Sale or with respect to a Recovery Event under Section 2.13(a) and (ii) an Extraordinary Receipt under Section 2.13(e), in each case, constituting Term Priority Collateral, up to $15,000,000 in the aggregate with respect to Net Cash Proceeds from Recovery Events and net proceeds of Extraordinary Receipts and up to $2,500,000 per fiscal year plus the Net Cash Proceeds of the Disposition of the Midway Facility with respect to the Net Cash Proceeds from Asset Sales, in each case received by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries in connection therewith shall not be required to be applied to the prepayment of the Loans on such date to the extent that such proceeds are used solely to reinvest in properties or assets of the Loan Parties constituting Term Priority Collateral; provided, that (x) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date such Person receives such proceeds or uses such proceeds to reinvest in properties or assets of the Loan Parties constituting Term Priority Collateral, (y) the Borrower delivers a certificate to the Agents within 5 days after receipt of such proceeds of an Asset Sale or Extraordinary Receipt or 10 days after the date of receipt of such proceeds of a Recovery Event, as the case maybe, stating that such proceeds shall be used to reinvest in properties or assets constituting Term Priority Collateral to be used in such Loan Party’s business within a period specified in such certificate not to exceed 365 days after the receipt of such proceeds, in the case of real property, and 180 days after the receipt of such proceeds, in the case of all other property (which certificate shall set forth estimates of the proceeds to be so expended), and (z) either (I) such proceeds are deposited in an account subject to the sole dominion and control of the Collateral Agent until such time as such proceeds are used to reinvest in properties or assets of the Loan Parties constituting Term Priority Collateral or (II) such proceeds are applied to prepay Revolving Credit Loans in the Applicable Currency; provided, that, concurrently with such application to the Revolving Credit Loans, the Administrative Agent shall establish and maintain a corresponding reserve against the Total Revolving Credit Commitments and the Borrowing Base in an amount equal to the full amount of such proceeds (such reserve to be released upon the earlier of (x) the date such Proceeds are used to reinvest in properties or assets of the Loan Parties constituting Term Priority Collateral and (y) if no such reinvestment shall occur within the time periods set forth in this Section 2.13(l), the date such proceeds are applied to the Loans as required by Section 2.13(a) or Section 2.13(e), as applicable, and the immediately succeeding clause; and if all or any portion of such proceeds not so applied to the prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.13(a) or Section 2.13(e), as applicable, are not used in accordance with the preceding provisions of this Section 2.13(l) within the period specified in the relevant certificate furnished pursuant hereto or there shall occur an Event of Default, such remaining portion shall be applied to the Loans as required by Section 2.13(a) or Section 2.13(e), as applicable, on the last day of such specified period or immediately, in the case of an Event of Default.

(m) For the avoidance of doubt, there shall be no Applicable Prepayment Premium due under Section 2.13 for prepayments made under Section 2.13 from (i) proceeds of any Duty Refunds; (ii) Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale or Recovery Event up to the Threshold Asset Sale and Recovery Event Proceeds Amount; (iii) Excess Cash Flow; or (iv) amounts on deposit in the Collection Account, if the amounts paid out of the Collection Account constitute amounts for which no Applicable Prepayment Premium would have been due under Section 2.13 at the time such amounts were deposited in the Collection Account.

(n) Each payment of the Loans under Sections 2.12 and 2.13 shall be made in the Applicable Currency and shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such payment on the amount paid.

2.14 Conversion and Continuation Options. (a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to Base Rate Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least one Business Day’s prior irrevocable notice of such election, provided that any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans may be made only on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Eurodollar Notice (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor), provided that no Base Rate Loan under a particular Facility may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan (i) when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and any Agent has, or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such Facility have, determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such conversions or (ii) after the date that is one month prior to the final scheduled termination or maturity date of such Facility. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

(b) The Borrower may elect to continue any Eurodollar Loan as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by 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 (i) when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and any Agent has, or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such Facility have, determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuations or (ii) after the date that is one month prior to the final scheduled termination or maturity date of such Facility, and provided further that if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso, such Loans shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans 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.

2.15 Minimum Amounts and Maximum Number of Eurodollar Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions, continuations and optional prepayments of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than ten Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time.

2.16 Interest Rates and Payment Dates.

(a) Each Eurodollar Loan that is denominated in Dollars shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the US Eurodollar Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin in effect for such day. Each Eurodollar Loan that is denominated in Canadian Dollars shall bear interest for each day

during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Canadian Eurodollar Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin then in effect.

(b) Each Base Rate Loan that is denominated in Dollars shall bear interest for each day on which it is outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the US Base Rate in effect for such day plus the Applicable Margin in effect for such day. Each Base Rate Loan that is denominated in Canadian Dollars shall bear interest for each day on which it is outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the Canadian Base Rate in effect for such day plus the Applicable Margin then in effect.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default (and at the election of any Agent or the Required Lenders) all Obligations (except for undrawn Letters of Credit and except for Bank Product Obligations) shall bear interest (x) in the case of Loans, at a rate per annum that is equal to the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2.0% per annum, (y) in the case of all other amounts denominated in Dollars (other than Letter of Credit fees provided for in Section 2.10(c)), at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to Term Loans that are Base Rate Loans plus 2% per annum, and (z) in the case of all other amounts denominated in Canadian Dollars (other than Letter of Credit fees provided for in Section 2.10(c)), at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars plus 2% per annum, and the Letter of Credit fees provided for in Section 2.10(c) shall be increased 2 percentage points above the per annum rate otherwise applicable thereunder.

(d) [reserved].

(e) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date in the Applicable Currency, provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable in the Applicable Currency from time to time on demand.

2.17 Computation of Interest and Fees.

(a) Interest, fees and commissions payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed (the yearly rate of interest to which the rate used in such calculation is equivalent is the rate so used multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 360); provided, that, with respect to Base Rate Loans, the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as applicable) day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements 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 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 be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision hereof, in no event shall the aggregate “interest” (as defined in section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada)) payable hereunder exceed the effective annual rate of interest on the “credit advanced” (as defined in that section) hereunder lawfully permitted by that section and, if any payment, collection or demand pursuant to this Agreement in respect of that “interest” (as defined in that section) is determined to be contrary to the provisions of that section, the amount of such payment, collection or demand in excess of that permitted under applicable law shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of the Borrower and the applicable Lenders and the amount of such excess payment or collection shall be refunded to the Borrower. For the purposes of this Agreement, the effective annual rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles over the relevant term and, in the event of dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Administrative Agent will, absent manifest error, be prima facie evidence of such rate.

(d) For the purpose of the Interest Act (Canada) and any other purpose, (i) the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest shall not apply to any calculation under this Agreement, and (ii) the rates of interest and fees 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 reasonably determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) 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 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 conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period,

the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (w) any Borrowing Notice or Eurodollar Notice given by the Borrower may be rescinded by the Borrower and, if not so rescinded, any Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Base Rate Loans, (x) any Loans under the relevant Facility that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as Base Rate Loans and (y) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility shall be converted, on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, to Base Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility shall be made or continued as

such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans under the relevant Facility to Eurodollar Loans.

2.19 Application and Allocation of Payments. (a) (i) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing: (A) payments of specific scheduled payments then due shall be applied to those scheduled payments; (B) voluntary prepayments shall be applied as determined by the Borrower subject to the provisions of Section 2.12; and (C) mandatory prepayments shall be applied as set forth in Section 2.13.

(ii) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, and upon the direction of the Majority Revolving Credit Facility Lenders or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the Term Loan Facility, or after an acceleration of all or a portion of the Loans, the Administrative Agent shall, apply all payments in respect of any Obligations and all proceeds of the Collateral as follows:

(C)

with respect to the Proceeds of any Asset Sale of all or substantially all of the assets or Capital Stock of any Person or any Recovery Event or any Extraordinary Receipt which Asset Sale or Recovery Event or Extraordinary Receipt includes both (x) Revolving Priority Collateral and (y) Term Priority Collateral, such Proceeds and payments using such Proceeds shall be applied as follows: (1) first, ratably to pay the Obligations in respect of any fees (including any fees or charges assessed by the Issuing Lender), expense reimbursements, indemnities and other amounts then due to the Agents or the Issuing Lender until paid in full; (2) second, ratably to pay interest due in respect of the Collateral Agent Advances then due to the Collateral Agent until paid in full; (3) third, ratably to pay principal of the Collateral Agent Advances then due to the Collateral Agent until paid in full; (4) fourth, an amount equal to the net book value of the Revolving Priority Borrowing Base Collateral that is the subject of such Asset Sale or Recovery Event (including any Revolving Priority Borrowing Base Collateral owned by a Person whose Capital Stock is the subject of such Asset Sale) (determined at the time of such Asset Sale or Recovery Event) or any Extraordinary Receipt constituting Revolving Priority Collateral shall be applied in accordance with (x) first, subclause (2) of clause (A) above, and (y) second, subclauses (5) through (14) of clause (A) above, in each case, until paid in full; and (5) fifth, the remaining Proceeds shall be applied in accordance with (x) first, subclause (2) of clause (B) above, and (y) second, subclauses (5) through (14) of clause (B) above, in each case, until paid in full.

(b) Except as provided in Sections 2.13(h) and 2.13(l) and except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or the Security Documents with respect to money to be held by the Collateral Agent for a specific purpose, the Collateral Agent shall promptly forward to the Administrative Agent any proceeds of Collateral received by the Collateral Agent to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) The Lenders and the Borrower hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to, and the Administrative Agent may, from time to time, charge the Loan Account of the Borrower with any amount due and payable by the Loan Parties under any Loan Document. Each of the Lenders and the Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have the right to make such charges whether or not any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or whether any of the conditions precedent in Sections 5.1 or 5.2 have been satisfied. Any amount charged to the Loan Account of the Borrower shall be deemed a Revolving Credit Loan hereunder made by the Revolving Credit Lenders to the Borrower, funded by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders and subject to Section 2.5 of this Agreement. The Lenders and the Borrowers confirm that any charges which the Administrative Agent may so make to the Loan Account of the Borrower as herein provided will be made as an accommodation to the Borrower and at the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, provided that, (i) so long as (A) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, and (B) no proceeding shall have been instituted against any Loan Party seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking dissolution, liquidation, winding up, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, protection, relief of debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for any such Person or for any substantial part of its property (including, without limitation, the entry of an order for relief against any such Person or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for any substantial part of its property) and (ii) to the extent that such charge does not exceed the then current Availability, the Administrative Agent shall from time to time upon the written request of the Collateral Agent, charge the Loan Account of the Borrower with any amount due and payable under any Loan Document.

(d) Each borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, each payment by the Borrower on account of any commitment fee or Letter of Credit fee (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.10), and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders, shall be made pro rata according to the respective Pro Rata Shares of the relevant Lenders. Each payment in respect of fees or expenses payable to the Lenders hereunder shall be applied to the amounts of such obligations owing to the applicable Lenders pro rata according to the respective amounts then due and owing to the applicable Lenders.

(e) Each payment (including each prepayment) of the Term Loans B outstanding under the Term Loan B Facility and interest thereon shall be allocated among the Term Loan B Lenders holding such Term Loans B pro rata based on the principal amount of such Term Loans B held by such Term Loan B Lenders. Amounts prepaid on account of the Term Loans B may not be reborrowed.

(f) Each payment (including each prepayment) of the Term Loans C outstanding under the Term Loan C Facility and interest thereon shall be allocated among the Term Loan C Lenders holding such Term Loans C pro rata based on the principal amount of

such Term Loans C held by such Term Loan C Lenders. Amounts prepaid on account of the Term Loans C may not be reborrowed.

(g) Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Credit Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Credit Loans then held by the Revolving Credit Lenders.

(h) [reserved].

(i) The application of any payment of Loans under any Facility (including optional and mandatory prepayments) shall be made, first, to Base Rate Loans under such Facility and, second, to Eurodollar Loans under such Facility. Each payment of the Loans (except in the case of Swing Line Loans and Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such payment on the amount paid.

(j) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 11:00 A.M, California time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Lenders, to the applicable Administrative Agent’s Account, in the Applicable Currency and in immediately available funds. Any payment made by the Borrower after 11:00 A.M., California time, on any Business Day shall be deemed to have been on the next following Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the 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 or in the case of any payment due on the Catch-up Date, the immediately following 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.

(k) 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 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 at a rate equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate 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 the applicable Loans under the relevant Facility, on demand, from the Borrower.

(l) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to the date of any payment due to be made by the Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the 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 Lenders their respective Pro Rata Shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the 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 at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower.

2.20 Loan Account and Accounting. The Administrative Agent shall maintain a loan account (the “Loan Account”) on its books to record: all Revolving Credit Loans and the Term Loans, all payments made by the Borrower, and all other debits and credits as provided in this Agreement with respect to the Loans or any other Obligations. All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s customary loan agency administration practices as in effect from time to time. The balance in the Loan Account, as recorded on the Administrative Agent’s most recent printout or other written statement, shall, absent manifest error, be prima facie evidence of the amounts due and owing to the Agents and Lenders by the Borrower; provided, that any failure to so record or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect the Borrower’s duty to pay the Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall render to the Borrower a monthly accounting of transactions with respect to the Loans setting forth the balance of the Loan Account. Unless the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent in writing of any objection to any such accounting (specifically describing the basis for such objection), within thirty (30) days after the date thereof, each and every such accounting shall (absent manifest error) be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon the Borrower in all respects as to all matters reflected therein. Only those items expressly objected to in such notice shall be deemed to be disputed by the Borrower.

2.21 Requirements of Law. (a) If any Lender or any Agent shall have determined that the adoption or implementation of, or any change in, any law, rule, treaty or regulation, or any policy, guideline or directive of, or any change in, the interpretation or administration thereof by, any court, central bank or other administrative or Governmental Authority, or compliance by any Lender or any Agent or any Person controlling any such Agent or Lender with any directive of, or guideline from, any central bank or other Governmental Authority or the introduction of, or change in, any accounting principles applicable to any Agent or any Lender or any Person controlling any such Agent or any such Lender (in each case, whether or not having the force of law) made subsequent to the date hereof (each a “Change in Law”), shall (i) subject such Agent or such Lender, or any Person controlling such Agent or such Lender to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to this Agreement or any Loan made by such

Agent or such Lender or any Letter of Credit issued by a Lender, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Agent or such Lender or any Person controlling such Agent or such Lender of any amounts payable hereunder (except for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by Section 2.22 and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Agent or such Lender or any Person controlling such Agent or such Lender), (ii) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against any Loan, any Letter of Credit or against assets of or held by, or deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, such Agent or such Lender or any Person controlling such Agent or such Lender or (iii) impose on such Agent or such Lender or any Person controlling such Agent or such Lender any other condition regarding this Agreement or any Loan or Letter of Credit, and the result of any event referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above shall be to increase the cost to such Agent or such Lender of making any Loan, issuing, guaranteeing or participating in any Letter of Credit, or agreeing to make any Loan or issue, guaranty or participate in any Letter of Credit, or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Agent or such Lender hereunder, then, upon demand by such Agent or such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Agent or such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Agent or such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amount.

(b) If any Agent or any Lender shall have determined that any Change in Law either (i) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Agent or such Lender or any Person controlling such Agent or such Lender, and such Agent or such Lender determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a direct or indirect consequence of any Loans made or maintained, Letters of Credit issued or any guaranty or participation with respect thereto, such Agent’s or such Lender’s or such other controlling Person’s other obligations hereunder, or (ii) has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Agent’s or such Lender’s or such other controlling Person’s capital to a level below that which such Agent or such Lender or such controlling Person could have achieved but for such circumstances as a consequence of any Loans made or maintained, Letters of Credit issued, or any guaranty or participation with respect thereto or any agreement to make Loans, to issue Letters of Credit or such Agent’s or such Lender’s or such other controlling Person’s other obligations hereunder (in each case, taking into consideration, such Agent’s or such Lender’s or such other controlling Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then, upon demand by such Agent or such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Agent or such Lender from time to time such additional amounts as will compensate such Agent or such Lender for such cost of maintaining such increased capital or such reduction in the rate of return on such Agent’s or such Lender’s or such other controlling Person’s capital.

(c) All amounts payable under this Section 2.21 (except interest payable under this clause (c)) shall bear interest from the date that is ten (10) days after the date of demand by any Agent or any Lender until payment in full to such Agent or such Lender at the Base Rate. A certificate of such Agent or such Lender claiming compensation under this Section 2.21, specifying the event hereinabove described and the nature of such event shall be submitted by such Agent or such Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, setting forth the additional amount due and an explanation of the calculation thereof, and such Agent’s or such Lender’s reasons for invoking the provisions of this Section 2.21, and shall be final and conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.21, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.21 for any amounts incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such 180-day period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect.

2.22 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments made by any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, and all interest, penalties, additions to tax or other liabilities with respect thereto, excluding net income taxes imposed on the Arranger, any Agent or any Lender (or any transferee or assignee thereof (any such entity, “Transferee”)) by the jurisdiction in which such Lender or Transferee is organized or has its principal lending office. If any Loan Party shall be required to deduct any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings or liabilities (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) or any Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to the Agent, any Lender or any Transferee, (i) the sum payable shall be increased by the amount (an “additional amount”) necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.22(a)) the Agent, such Lender or such Transferee shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Loan Party shall make such deductions and (iii) such Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by any Loan Party, as promptly as possible thereafter the Loan Party shall send to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Arranger, Agent or Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Loan Party showing payment thereof. If the Loan Party fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Loan Party shall indemnify the Arranger, the Agents and the Lenders for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Arranger, any Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(d) Each Loan Party hereby agrees to hold each Agent and each Lender harmless from and against Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes imposed on any amounts payable under this Section 2.22) paid by such Person, whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Such indemnification shall be paid by a Loan Party within 10 days from the date on which any such Person makes written demand therefor, specifying in reasonable detail the nature and amount of such Taxes or Other Taxes.

(e) Each Lender and Transferee agrees to file any certificate or document or to furnish to a Loan Party any information as reasonably requested by a Loan Party that may be necessary to establish any available exemption from, or reduction in the amount of, any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 2.22(e) shall require a Lender or Transferee to disclose any confidential information (including, without limitation, its tax returns or other reports, disclosures or calculations) and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender or Transferee, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender or Transferee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender or Transferee shall not be required to deliver any certificate or document pursuant to this Section 2.22(e) that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(f) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender becomes aware that it has received a refund of, or credit with respect to, any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.22 and the Administrative Agent or such Lender realizes such refund or credit with respect to the taxable year that the additional amount is paid by the Borrower, it shall pay over such net benefit, after tax, of such refund or credit to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.22 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund or credit), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund or credit) as determined in the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s sole discretion; provided, that the Borrower, within 10 days after receipt of the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, shall repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund or credit to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other report, disclosure, calculation or information which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(g) The obligations of the Loan Parties under this Section 2.22 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.23 Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each of them harmless from, any loss or reasonable out of pocket expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice

requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (other than, in the case of a delivery of a Borrowing Notice or Eurodollar Notice by the Borrower, as a result of (i) a default by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, (ii) the unavailability of Eurodollar Loans as a result of the application of Section 2.18 or Section 2.24 or (iii) the unavailability of Eurodollar Loans because the Administrative Agent or Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the applicable Facility have determined not to permit additional Eurodollar Loans because an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing), (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, or (c) the making of a prepayment or conversion of Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto including as a result of an Event of Default. 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 setting forth in reasonable detail any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted to the Borrower by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.24 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, (a) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurodollar Loans, continue Eurodollar Loans as such and convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall forthwith be canceled and (b) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of a Eurodollar Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.23.

2.25 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.21, 2.22 or 2.24 (except with respect to Canadian withholding taxes applicable to such Lender (or any of its Transferees) as of the date of this Agreement) with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of any Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.21, 2.22 or 2.24.

SECTION 3. LETTERS OF CREDIT

3.1 L/C Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Issuing Lender agrees to issue letters of credit for the account of the Borrower (each, an “L/C”) or to purchase participations or execute indemnities or reimbursement obligations (each such undertaking, an “L/C Undertaking”) with respect to letters of credit issued by an Underlying Issuer (as of the Closing Date, the prospective Underlying Issuer is to be The Toronto-Dominion Bank) for the account of the Borrower. Each request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or the amendment, renewal, or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit, shall be made in writing by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower and delivered to the Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent via hand delivery, telefacsimile, or other electronic method of transmission reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension. Each such request shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Issuing Lender in its Permitted Discretion and shall specify (i) the amount of such Letter of Credit, (ii) the currency in which amounts under such Letter of Credit shall be payable, (iii) the date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension of such Letter of Credit, (iv) the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (v) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof (or the beneficiary of the Underlying Letter of Credit, as applicable), and (vi) such other information (including, in the case of an amendment, renewal, or extension, identification of the outstanding Letter of Credit to be so amended, renewed, or extended) as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew, or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the Issuing Lender, the Borrower also shall be an applicant under the application with respect to any Underlying Letter of Credit that is to be the subject of an L/C Undertaking. It is hereby acknowledged and agreed that each Existing Letter of Credit (including any extension thereof) which is to remain outstanding on the Closing Date shall constitute a “Letter of Credit” for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue a Letter of Credit if any of the following would result after giving effect to the issuance of such requested Letter of Credit:

(i) the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the Borrowing Base less the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans, or

(ii) the Dollar Equivalent of the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed $35,000,000, or

(iii) the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitments less the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans less the outstanding principal amount of Swing Line Loans.

The Borrower and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that certain Underlying Letters of Credit may be issued to support letters of credit that already are outstanding as of the Closing Date. Each Letter of Credit (and corresponding Underlying Letter of Credit) shall be in form and substance acceptable to the Issuing Lender (in the exercise of its Permitted Discretion), including the requirement that the amounts payable thereunder must be payable in Dollars or Canadian Dollars. If the Issuing Lender is obligated to advance funds under a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall immediately reimburse such L/C Disbursement to the Issuing Lender by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than 11:00 a.m., California time, on the date that such L/C Disbursement is made, if the Borrower

shall have received written or telephonic notice of such L/C Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., California time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 11:00 a.m., California time, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., California time, on the date of receipt, and, in the absence of such reimbursement, the L/C Disbursement immediately and automatically shall be deemed to be a Revolving Credit Loan hereunder and, initially, shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans. To the extent an L/C Disbursement is deemed to be a Revolving Credit Loan hereunder, the Borrower’s obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Revolving Credit Loan. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Revolving Credit Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section 3.2 to reimburse the Issuing Lender, then to such Revolving Credit Lenders and the Issuing Lender as their interests may appear.

3.2 L/C Disbursement. Promptly following receipt of a notice of L/C Disbursement pursuant to Section 3.1, each Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment agrees to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Revolving Credit Loan deemed made pursuant to the foregoing subsection on the same terms and conditions as if the Borrower had requested such Loan and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Lender or the Lenders with Revolving Credit Commitments, the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have granted to each Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment, and each Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment shall be deemed to have purchased, a participation in each Letter of Credit, in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Risk Participation Liability of such Letter of Credit, and each such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any payments made by the Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in Section 3.1, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, an amount equal to its respective Pro Rata Share of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall be absolute and unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default or Default or the failure to satisfy any condition set forth in Section 5.1 or Section 5.2. If any such Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment fails to make available to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit as provided in this Section, such Lender shall pay, and the Administrative Agent (for the account of the Issuing Lender) shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon as provided in Section 2.16(c) until paid in full.

3.3 Direction. The Borrower hereby authorizes and directs any Underlying Issuer to deliver to the Issuing Lender all instruments, documents, and other writings and property received by such Underlying Issuer pursuant to such Underlying Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon the Issuing Lender’s instructions with respect to all matters arising in connection with such Underlying Letter of Credit and the related application.

3.4 Change in Law. Without duplication of any payments made under or pursuant to Section 2.21, if by reason of (a) any change after the Closing Date in any applicable law, treaty, rule, or regulation or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority, or (b) compliance by the Underlying Issuer or the Lenders with any direction, request, or requirement (irrespective of whether having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority or monetary authority, including, Regulation D of the Federal Reserve Board as from time to time in effect (and any successor thereto):

(i) any reserve, deposit, or similar requirement is or shall be imposed or modified in respect of any Letter of Credit issued hereunder, or

(ii) there shall be imposed on the Underlying Issuer or the Lenders or Agents any other condition regarding any Underlying Letter of Credit or any Letter of Credit issued pursuant hereto,

and the result of the foregoing is to increase, directly or indirectly, the cost to the Revolving Credit Lenders of issuing, making, guaranteeing, or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount received in respect thereof by the Lenders or the Administrative Agent, then, and in any such case, the Administrative Agent may, at any time within a reasonable period after the additional cost is incurred or the amount received is reduced, notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall pay on demand such amounts as the Administrative Agent may specify to be necessary to compensate the Revolving Credit Lenders and the Administrative Agent for such additional cost or reduced receipt, together with interest on such amount from the date of such demand until payment in full thereof at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder. The determination by the Administrative Agent of any amount due pursuant to this Section, as set forth in a certificate setting forth the calculation thereof in reasonable detail, shall, in the absence of manifest or demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding on all of the parties hereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.4, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 3.4 for any amounts incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such 180-day period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect.

3.5 Charges; Fees. Any and all issuance charges, commissions, fees, and costs incurred by the Issuing Lender relating to Underlying Letters of Credit shall be reimbursable by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender; it being acknowledged and agreed by the Borrower that, as of the Closing Date, the issuance charge imposed by the prospective Underlying Issuer is .825% per annum times the undrawn amount of each Underlying Letter of Credit, that such issuance charge may be changed from

time to time, and that the Underlying Issuer also imposes a schedule of charges for amendments, extensions, drawings, and renewals.

3.6 Cash Collateral. Any cash collateral provided with respect to any Letter of Credit under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be provided (a) with respect to any Letter of Credit Usage denominated in Canadian Dollars, in Canadian Dollars, and (b) with respect to any Letter of Credit Usage denominated in Dollars, in Dollars.

3.7 Indemnity. The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save, defend, and hold the Agents and the Lenders harmless from any loss, cost, expense, or liability, and reasonable attorneys fees incurred by any Agent or any Lender arising out of or in connection with any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated hereunder to indemnify for any loss, cost, expense, or liability to the extent that it is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender, any other Lender or any Agent. The Borrower agrees to be bound by the Underlying Issuer’s regulations and interpretations of any Underlying Letter of Credit or by the Issuing Lender’s interpretations of any L/C issued by the Issuing Lender to or for the Borrower’s account, even though this interpretation may be different from the Borrower’s own, and the Borrower understands and agrees that the Agents and the Lenders shall not be liable for any error, negligence, or mistake, whether of omission or commission, in following the Borrower’s instructions or those contained in the Letter of Credit or any modifications, amendments, or supplements thereto except for gross negligence or willful misconduct or failure to pay a Letter of Credit when required to be paid. The Borrower understands that the L/C Undertakings may require the Issuing Lender to indemnify the Underlying Issuer for certain costs or liabilities arising out of claims by the Borrower against such Underlying Issuer. The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save, defend, and hold the Agents and the Lenders harmless with respect to any loss, cost, expense (including reasonable attorneys fees), or liability incurred by any Agent or any Lender under any L/C Undertaking as a result of any such Agent’s or Lender’s indemnification of any Underlying Issuer; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated hereunder to indemnify for any loss, cost, expense, or liability to the extent that it is caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender, any other Lender or any Agent or the failure to pay a Letter of Credit when required to be paid. The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that neither the Agents and the Lenders nor the Issuing Lender shall be responsible for delays, errors, or omissions resulting from the malfunction of equipment in connection with any Letter of Credit except for gross negligence or willful misconduct or failure to pay a Letter of Credit when required to be paid.

SECTION 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

To induce the Arranger, the Agents and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans and issue or participate in the Letters of Credit, the Parent and the Borrower hereby jointly and severally represent and warrant to the Arranger, each Agent and each Lender that:

4.1 Financial Condition.

(a) The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet of the Parent and its Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2006 (including the notes thereto) (the “Pro Forma Balance Sheet”), copies of which have heretofore been furnished to each Lender, has been prepared giving effect (as if such events had occurred on such date) to (i) the Loans to be made on the Closing Date and the use of proceeds thereof; and (ii) the payment of fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing. The Pro Forma Balance Sheet presents fairly in all material respects on a pro forma basis the estimated financial position of the Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2006, assuming that the events specified in the preceding sentence had actually occurred at such date.

(b) The audited consolidated balance sheets of the Parent and its Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 and the related consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the fiscal years ended on such dates, present fairly in all material respects in accordance with GAAP the consolidated financial condition of the Parent and its Subsidiaries as at such dates, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the respective fiscal years then ended. The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Parent and its Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2006, and the related unaudited consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the three-month period ended on such date, present fairly in all material respects in accordance with GAAP the consolidated financial condition of the Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at such date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the three-month period then ended (subject to normal period-end adjustments). As of the Closing Date, the Parent and its Subsidiaries do not have any Guarantee Obligations, contingent liabilities and liabilities for taxes, or any long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments, including, without limitation, any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction or other obligation in respect of derivatives, that are not reflected in the most recent financial statements referred to in this paragraph (other than contingent liabilities arising in the ordinary course of business or as disclosed on Schedule 4.1(b)). Except as set forth on Schedule 4.1(b), during the period from December 31, 2005 to and including the date hereof there has been no Disposition by the Parent or its consolidated Subsidiaries of any part of its business or Property with an aggregate Fair Market Value in excess of $2,000,000.

4.2 No Change. Other than as disclosed in the Parent’s public filings that have been filed prior to the Closing Date, since December 31, 2005 there has been no development or event that has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.3 Existence; Compliance with Law. Each of the Parent, the Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the power and authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its Property, to lease the Property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of Property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification except to the extent that the failure to be so qualified could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law except to the extent that

the failure to comply therewith would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.4 Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party has the power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to borrow hereunder. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to authorize the borrowings on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the borrowings hereunder or the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents except the filings referred to in Section 4.20 and filings relating to the exercise of the Lenders’ enforcement rights and remedies hereunder. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party that is a party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party that is a party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, 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).

4.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the issuance of Letters of Credit, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any Requirement of Law or any material Contractual Obligation of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created by the Security Documents). No Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation applicable to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.6 No Material Litigation. (a) Except as set forth on Schedule 4.6, on the Closing Date there is no litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending or, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of the Parent or the Borrower, threatened by or against the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or against any of their respective properties or revenues, (a) with respect to any of the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or (b) involving a claim for damages in excess of $1,000,000.

(b) No litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Parent or the Borrower, threatened by or against the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or against any of their respective properties or revenue, (a) with respect to any of the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or (b) that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.7 No Default. None of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

4.8 Ownership of Property; Liens. Each of the Parent and each of its Subsidiaries is the sole owner of, legally and beneficially, and has good marketable and insurable title in fee simple to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all real property necessary for the operation of its business, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all other Property necessary for the operation of its business, and none of its real property or other Property is subject to any Lien except for Permitted Liens. None of the Pledged Stock is subject to any Lien except for Permitted Liens.

4.9 Intellectual Property.

(a) The Parent and each of its Subsidiaries owns, or holds valid rights to use, all Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted and as currently contemplated to be conducted (the “Material Intellectual Property”). All such rights are free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens) and are fully assignable by the Parent and each of its Subsidiaries to any Person without payment, consent of any Person or other condition or restriction. No Material Intellectual Property has been abandoned, cancelled or adjudicated invalid or is subject to any decree restricting its use. No material claim, suit, action, reissue, interference, arbitration, mediation, opposition, cancellation or other proceeding has been asserted, decided or is pending or, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of the Parent or the Borrower, is threatened, by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any Material Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any Material Intellectual Property, nor does any Responsible Officer of the Parent or the Borrower know of any valid basis for any such claim except for claims that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The use of Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted and as currently contemplated to be conducted by the Parent and its Subsidiaries does not infringe on the rights of any Person in any material respect.

(b) The Parent and each of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, owns or has rights to access and use all IT Systems used to process, store, maintain and operate data, information and functions used in connection with the business or otherwise necessary for the conduct of the business, including systems to operate payroll, accounting, billing/receivables, payables, inventory, asset tracking, customer service and human resources functions. The IT Systems are adequate in all material respects for their intended use and for the operation of the business as currently operated and as currently contemplated to be operated by the Parent and each of its Subsidiaries, and are in good working condition (normal wear and tear excepted). There has not been any malfunction with respect to any of the IT Systems since December 31, 2005 that has not been remedied or replaced in all material respects.

4.10 Taxes. Each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries has filed or caused to be filed with the appropriate Governmental Authority all tax returns, statements, forms and reports for taxes (“Returns”) required to be filed and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on said Returns and all other taxes, fees, assessments or other charges imposed on the

income, operations or Property of each Loan Party or its Subsidiaries by any Governmental Authority (other than (a) any taxes, fees, assessments or other charges the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the Parent or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be and (b) Returns required to be filed with respect to the payment of taxes and taxes, in each case, in an aggregate amount not in excess of $1,000,000); and no tax Lien (other than any tax Lien that is a Permitted Lien) has been filed, and, to the knowledge of a Responsible Officer of a Loan Party or its Subsidiaries, no material claim is being asserted, with respect to any such tax, fee or other charge. No Loan Party and no Subsidiary thereof (i) intends to treat the Loans or any other transaction contemplated hereby as being a “reportable transaction” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.6011-4) or (ii) is aware of any facts or events that would result in such treatment.

4.11 Federal Regulations. No part of the proceeds of any Loans will be used for “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U as now and from time to time hereafter in effect or for any purpose that violates the provisions of the Regulations of the Board. If requested by any Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Parent or the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form U 1 referred to in Regulation U.

4.12 Labor Matters. There are no strikes, stoppages or slowdowns or other labor disputes against the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries pending or, to the knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the Parent or the Borrower, threatened that (individually or in the aggregate) would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Hours worked by and payment made to employees of the Parent and its Subsidiaries have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Requirement of Law dealing with such matters that (individually or in the aggregate) would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All payments due from the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries on account of employee health and welfare insurance that (individually or in the aggregate) would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect if not paid have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of the Parent or the relevant Subsidiary.

4.13 ERISA. Neither a Reportable Event nor an “accumulated funding deficiency” (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) has occurred (whether or not waived) during the five year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Single Employer Plan that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and each Single Employer Plan has been administered in compliance with its terms and the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code, except where the failure to so comply would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred that would reasonably be expected to result in a liability to the Borrower or any Commonly Controlled Entity in excess of $1,000,000, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Single Employer Plan has arisen on the assets of the Borrower or any Commonly Controlled Entity during the five-year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made. The present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Single Employer Plan) did not, as determined as of the

date of the last annual actuarial valuation prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Single Employer Plan by an amount that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan that has resulted or would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization or Insolvent which Reorganization or Insolvency could result in liability to the Borrower or any Commonly Controlled Entity in excess of $1,000,000 in the aggregate. Neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity nor any fiduciary of any Plan has engaged in a nonexempt prohibited transaction described in Sections 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code with respect to any Single Employer Plan that could result in a liability to the Borrower or any Commonly Controlled Entity in excess of $1,000,000. There are no pending or, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of the Parent or the Borrower, threatened claims, actions, proceedings or lawsuits (other than claims for benefits in the normal course) asserted or instituted against (i) any Single Employer Plan or its assets, (ii) any fiduciary with respect to any Single Employer Plan, or (iii) the Borrower or any Commonly Controlled Entity with respect to any Single Employer Plan, except any claim, action, proceeding or lawsuit described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) that would not reasonably be expected to result in an aggregate liability for all such claims, actions, proceedings or lawsuits in excess of $1,000,000.

(j) any of the Security Documents shall cease, for any reason (other than by reason of the express release thereof pursuant to Section 9.12), to be in full force and effect, or any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party shall so assert, or any Lien on Property with an aggregate value of $2,500,000 or more created by any of the Security Documents shall cease to be enforceable and of the same effect and priority purported to be created thereby;

109

limitation, all amounts of obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) shall immediately become due and payable, and (B) if such event is any other Event of Default, any or all of the following actions may be taken: with the consent of the Majority Revolving Credit Facility Lenders or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the Term Loan Facility, the Collateral Agent may, or upon the request of the Majority Revolving Credit Facility Lenders or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the Term Loan Facility, the Collateral Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower, declare (i) the Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon), and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all amounts of obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) to be due and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable, and (ii) the Revolving Credit Commitments to be terminated forthwith (whereupon the Revolving Credit Commitments shall immediately terminate). In the case of all Letters of Credit with respect to which presentment for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent an amount in immediately available funds equal to 105% of the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit (and the Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a continuing security interest in all amounts at any time on deposit in such cash collateral account to secure the undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit and all other Obligations). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that any funds held in such cash collateral account are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate undrawn and unexpired amount of outstanding Letters of Credit, the Borrower shall, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Collateral Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in such cash collateral account, an amount equal to the excess of (a) such aggregate undrawn and unexpired amount over (b) the total amount of funds, if any, then held in such cash collateral account that the Administrative Agent determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, all reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit shall have been satisfied and all other obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned to the Borrower (or such other Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto). With respect to the Revolver Priority Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to exercise such enforcement rights and remedies so long as the Collateral Agent shall irrevocably appoint the Administrative Agent, in writing, as an agent of the Collateral Agent for purposes of exercising such enforcement rights and remedies with respect to the Revolver Priority Collateral. All such actions shall be taken by the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to realize a commercially reasonable value from the Collateral within a commercially reasonable time. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall have

110

the benefit of the provisions of Section 9.3 in acting as an appointee of the Collateral Agent hereunder.

SECTION 9. THE AGENTS; THE ARRANGER

9.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Agents as the agents of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, but without limitation, to make the Loans and Collateral Agent Advances, for such Agent or on behalf of the applicable Lenders as provided in this Agreement or any other Loan Document) and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to such Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, no Agent shall 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 any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against any Agent.

9.2 Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall 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 the Arranger, any Agent nor any officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely and proximately from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Arranger, the Syndication Agent, or the Agents under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. 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 any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party.

9.4 Reliance by Agents. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype 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

111

the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Loan Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent. The Agents may deem and treat the payee (or the registered assigns) of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless such Note shall have been transferred in accordance with Section 10.6 and all actions required by such Section in connection with such transfer shall have been taken. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement) 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. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement), 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. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless such Agent shall have received notice from a Lender or the 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 any Agent shall receive such a notice, such Agent shall notify the Administrative Agent who, promptly upon receipt of such notification, shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Majority Revolving Credit Facility Lenders or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the Term Loan B Facility and the Term Loan C Facility (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement); provided that (i) unless and until the Collateral Agent shall have received such directions or (ii) subject to Section 8, if the Collateral Agent shall receive conflicting directions, the Collateral 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 the Arranger, the Syndication Agent, the Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Arranger, the Syndication Agent, any of the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys and other advisors, partners, 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 of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Arranger or any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents, the Syndication Agent and the Arranger that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Arranger, the Syndication Agent, 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 Loan Parties and their affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans (and in the case of any the Issuing Lender, to issue its Letters of Credit) hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently

112

and without reliance upon the Arranger, the Syndication Agent, 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 the other Loan Documents, 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 Loan Parties and their affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, none of the Arranger, the Syndication Agent or any Agent shall 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 any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of the Arranger, the Syndication Agent or any Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys and other advisors, partners, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

9.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Arranger, the Syndication Agent and each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Aggregate Exposure Percentages immediately prior to such date), for, and to save the Arranger, the Syndication Agent and each Agent harmless 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 (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Arranger, the Syndication Agent or such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Arranger, the Syndication Agent or 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 are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely and proximately from the Arranger’s or 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 Arranger, the Syndication Agent and Agents in their Individual Capacities. The Arranger, the Syndication Agent and each Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though the Arranger, the Syndication Agent or such Agent were not an Arranger or a Syndication Agent or 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, the Arranger, the Syndication Agent and each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Arranger or a Syndication Agent or an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Arranger, the Syndication Agent, and the Agents in their individual capacities.

113

9.9 Successor Agent. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Term Loan B Agent may resign as such agent upon 30 days’ notice (or such shorter notice as the Required Lenders may agree) to the Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or the Term Loan B Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Term Loan B Agent, respectively, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, 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(a) or Section 8(g) with respect to the Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Term Loan B Agent, as applicable, and the terms “Administrative Agent”, “Collateral Agent” and “Term Loan B Agent”, as applicable, shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s, Collateral Agent’s or Term Loan B Agent’s, as applicable, rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Term Loan B Agent, respectively, shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Term Loan B Agent, as applicable, or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans or issuers of Letters of Credit. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Term Loan B Agent, as applicable, by the date that is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s, Collateral Agent’s or Term Loan B Agent’s, as applicable, notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s, Collateral Agent’s or Term Loan B Agent’s, as applicable, resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Term Loan B Agent, as applicable, hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After any retiring Agent’s resignation as Agent, 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 Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

9.10 Authorization to Release Liens and Guarantees. The Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders to effect any release of Liens or guarantee obligations contemplated by Section 9.12.

9.11 The Arranger and the Syndication Agent. The Arranger and the Syndication Agent, in their respective capacities as such, shall have no duties or responsibilities, and shall incur no liability, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

9.12 Collateral Matters.

(a) The Collateral Agent may from time to time make such disbursements and advances (“Collateral Agent Advances”) which the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable to preserve, protect, prepare for sale or lease or dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof, to enhance the likelihood or maximize the amount of repayment by the Borrower of the Loans, contingent reimbursement obligations with respect to outstanding Letters of Credit, and other Obligations or to pay any other amount chargeable to the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 10.5. The Collateral Agent Advances shall be repayable on demand and be

114

secured by the Collateral. The Collateral Agent Advances shall constitute Obligations hereunder which may be charged to the Loan Account. The Collateral Agent shall notify each Lender and the Borrower in writing of each such Collateral Agent Advance, which notice shall include a description of the purpose of such Collateral Agent Advance. Without limitation to its obligations pursuant to Section 9.7, each Lender agrees that it shall make available to the Collateral Agent, upon the Collateral Agent’s demand, in Dollars in immediately available funds, the amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each such Collateral Agent Advance. If such funds are not made available to the Collateral Agent by such Lender, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to recover such funds on demand from such Lender, together with interest thereon for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to the Collateral Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for three Business Days and thereafter at the rate in effect for Term Loans that are Base Rate Loans.

(b) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion (without notice to, or vote or consent of any other Agent, any Lender or any affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any Bank Product Agreement), to release any Lien on any Collateral and to release any guarantee obligations of any Person (i) upon the termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction in full by Borrower of all Obligations, (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if a release is required or desirable in connection therewith and if the Borrower certifies to the Collateral Agent that the sale or disposition is permitted under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and that the proceeds thereof will be applied as required under this Agreement (and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), or (iii) constituting property not then or at any time previously owned by a Loan Party or leased by a Loan Party under a lease that has expired or is terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement. Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 9.12(b).

(c) Without in any manner limiting the Collateral Agent’s authority to act without any specific or further authorization or consent by the Lenders (as set forth in Section 9.12(b)), each Lender agrees to confirm in writing, upon request by the Collateral Agent, the authority to release Collateral conferred upon the Collateral Agent under Section 9.12(b). If so requested, upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of confirmation from the Lenders of its authority to release any particular item or types of Collateral, and upon prior written request by any Loan Party, the Collateral Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders upon such Collateral; provided, however, that (i) the Collateral Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Collateral Agent’s opinion, would expose the Collateral Agent to liability or create any obligations or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Lien upon (or obligations of any Loan Party in respect of) all interests in the Collateral retained by any Loan Party.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document (i) when all Obligations (other than obligations in respect of any Bank Product Agreement) have been paid in full, all Commitments have terminated or expired and no Letter of

115

Credit shall be outstanding (other than any Letter of Credit that has been cash collateralized in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), upon request of the Borrower, the Collateral Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender, or any affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any Bank Product Agreements) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in all Collateral, and to release all guarantee obligations provided for in any Loan Document, whether or not on the date of such release there may be outstanding Obligations in respect of Bank Product Agreements, and (ii) if any Loan Party Disposes of any Collateral in a transaction not prohibited by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, upon request of the Borrower, the Collateral Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender, or any affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any Bank Product Agreements) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in the Collateral being Disposed of and release any guarantee obligations of any Person being Disposed of to the extent that any such Disposition of Collateral results in the Disposition of a Guarantor, in each case if the Borrower certifies to the Collateral Agent that the Disposition is permitted under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and that the Proceeds thereof will be applied as required under this Agreement (and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry). Any such release of guarantee obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such guarantee obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the 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 Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

(e) The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Loan Parties or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Lien granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document has been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or is entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent in this Section 9.12 or in any other Loan Document, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Collateral Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as one of the Lenders and that the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any other Lender, except as otherwise provided herein.

9.13 Agency for Perfection. Each Agent and each Lender hereby appoints each other Agent and each other Lender as agent and bailee for the purpose of perfecting the security interests in and liens upon the Collateral in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC, the PPSA or other applicable law, can be perfected only by possession or control (or where the security interest of a secured party with possession or control has priority over the security interest of another secured party) and each Agent and each Lender hereby acknowledges that it holds possession of or otherwise controls any such Collateral for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders as secured party. Should any Agent (other than the Collateral Agent) or any Lender obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Agent or such Lender shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Collateral Agent’s request therefor shall deliver

116

such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or in accordance with the Collateral Agent’s instructions. In addition, the Collateral Agent shall also have the power and authority hereunder to appoint such other sub-agents as may be necessary or required under applicable law or otherwise to perform its duties and enforce its rights with respect to the Collateral and under the Loan Documents. Each Loan Party by its execution and delivery of this Agreement hereby consents to the foregoing.

9.14 Withholding Tax. (a) To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax.

(b) If (i) a Loan Party requests a Lender or Transferee to file a certificate or document pursuant to Section 2.22(e) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes, (ii) such Lender or Transferee is legally able to deliver such certificate or document at the time of such request and complies with the Loan Party’s request and (iii) the Internal Revenue Service, the Canada Revenue Agency or any authority of the United States of America, Canada or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because (a) the appropriate form was not properly executed, or (b) such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the information contained in such form with respect to such Lender inaccurate or incorrect, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax, including penalties, additions to tax and interest.

(c) If any Lender sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers its rights under this Agreement, the purchaser, assignee, participant or transferee, as applicable, shall comply and be bound by the terms of this Section 9.14. If any Lender grants a participation in its rights under this Agreement, the participant shall comply with Section 2.22(e) at the time such participant seeks to obtain the benefits of Section 2.22.

9.15 Bank Product Provider. Each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed a party hereto for purposes of any reference in a Loan Document to the parties for whom the Agents are acting; it being understood and agreed that the rights and benefits of a Bank Product Provider under the Loan Documents consist exclusively of a Bank Product Provider’s right to share in payments and collections out of the Collateral as more fully set forth herein. In connection with any distribution of such payments and collections, the Agents shall be entitled to assume that no amounts are due to any Bank Product Provider unless such Bank Product Provider has notified the Administrative Agent in writing of the amount of any such liability owed to it prior to such distribution.

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

117

Issuing Lender:		As notified by such Issuing Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower

provided that any notice, request or demand to or upon the Arranger, any Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender shall not be effective until received.

10.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

10.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made herein, in the other Loan Documents and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans and other extensions of credit hereunder.

10.5 Payment of Expenses. The Loan Parties agree (on behalf of themselves and their Subsidiaries) (a) to pay or reimburse the Arranger, each Agent and the Syndication Agent for all their reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the syndication of the Facilities (other than fees payable to syndicate members) and the development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to,

121

this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements and other charges of counsel to each Agent and the charges of Intralinks, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender, each Agent, the Arranger and the Syndication Agent for all their costs and expenses incurred in connection with any restructuring or “work-out” of the Loans hereunder or the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel (including the allocated fees and disbursements and other charges of in-house counsel) to each Lender and of counsel to each Agent and the Syndication Agent, (c) to pay, indemnify, or reimburse each Lender, the Arranger, the Agents and the Syndication Agent for, and hold each Lender, the Arranger, the Agents and the Syndication Agent harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, and (d) to pay, indemnify or reimburse each Lender, the Arranger, each Agent, the Syndication Agent, their respective affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, trustees, employees, affiliates, shareholders, attorneys and other advisors, agents and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnitee”) for, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all other 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, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including, without limitation, any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of the Loans or the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of the Properties or the use by unauthorized persons of information or other materials sent through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems that are intercepted by such persons and the fees and disbursements and other charges of legal counsel in connection with claims, actions or proceedings by any Indemnitee against the Borrower hereunder (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are (i) found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (ii) resulted solely from the failure of the Loan Parties to reimburse any Agent or any Lender for expenses that the Loan Parties are not required to reimburse under clause (a) of this Section 10.5. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unauthorized persons of Information or other materials sent through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems that are intercepted by such persons or for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in connection with the Facilities. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Parent agrees not to assert and to cause its Subsidiaries not to assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries so to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities,

122

settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee; provided, that the Borrower does not waive any such right with respect to matters that were found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. All amounts due under this Section may be charged to the Loan Account pursuant to Sections 2.19(c) and 2.20 and, upon request, the Borrower shall be entitled to receive a reasonably detailed written invoice for such amounts. Statements payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be submitted to the address of the Borrower set forth in Section 10.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Borrower in a notice to the Administrative Agent. The agreements in this Section 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 Borrower, the Lenders, the Arranger, the Agents, all future holders of the Loans and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Loan Parties may not assign or transfer any of their rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Arranger, the Agents and each Lender.

(b) Any Lender may (x) with the written consent of the Collateral Agent and Term Loan B Agent, assign to one or more other lenders or other entities all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to all or a portion of its Term Loan Commitment and any Term Loan made by it and (y) with the written consent of the Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender and the Agents, assign to one or more other lenders or other entities all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitment and the Revolving Credit Loans made by it; provided, however, that (i) such assignment is in an amount which is at least $5,000,000 or a multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or the remainder of such Lender’s Commitment) (except such minimum amount shall not apply to an assignment by a Lender to (x) a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or a Related Fund of a Lender or (y) a group of new Lenders, each of whom is an Affiliate or Related Fund of each other to the extent the aggregate amount to be assigned to all such new Lenders is at least $5,000,000 or a multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof), (ii) except as provided in the last sentence of this Section 10.6(b), the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver with any of the consents required pursuant to this Section to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance substantially in the form of Exhibit D (an “Assignment and Acceptance”), together with any promissory note subject to such assignment and such parties shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (except the payment of such fee shall not be required in connection with an assignment by a Lender to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or a Related Fund of a Lender) and (iii) no written consent of the Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender or any Agent shall be required (1) in connection with any assignment by a Lender to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or a Related Fund of such Lender or (2) if such assignment is in connection with any merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, or other disposition of all or any substantial portion of the business or loan portfolio of such Lender. Except as provided in the third to last sentence of this Section 10.6(b), upon such execution, delivery and acceptance, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, which effective date shall be at least 3 Business Days after the delivery thereof to the

123

Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as shall be agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the parties to such assignment), (A) the assignee thereunder shall become a “Lender” hereunder and, in addition to the rights and obligations hereunder held by it immediately prior to such effective date, have the rights and obligations hereunder that have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and (B) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.6(b), a Lender may assign any or all of its rights under the Loan Documents to an Affiliate of such Lender or a Related Fund with respect to such Lender without delivering an Assignment and Acceptance to the Agents or to any other Person (a “Related Party Assignment”); provided, however, that (I) the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with such assigning Lender in connection with the interest so assigned until an Assignment and Acceptance has been delivered to the Administrative Agent for recordation on the Register, (II) the Collateral Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with such assigning Lender until receipt by the Collateral Agent of a copy of the fully executed Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to Section 10.6(e), (III) the failure of such assigning Lender to deliver an Assignment and Acceptance to the Agents shall not affect the legality, validity, or binding effect of such assignment, (IV) an Assignment and Acceptance between the assigning Lender and an Affiliate of such Lender or a Related Fund of such Lender shall be effective as of the date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance and recorded on the Related Party Register (as defined below), and (V) the assigning Lender shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, keep a register of such assignment comparable to the Register (the “Related Party Register”). The Related Party Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers from time to time upon reasonable notice. So long as no Event of Default exists, any Lender making an assignment under this Section 10.6 shall use reasonable efforts to make such assignment to an assignee that would not be entitled to any additional amounts under Section 2.22 to which the assigning Lender would not be entitled.

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other documents and information it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the assigning Lender, 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 decisions in

124

taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Agents to take such action as agents on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Agents by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental hereto and thereto; and (vi) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain, or cause to be maintained at its office, a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it. The Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register (and any Lender that makes a Related Party Assignment shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Related Party Register) as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. In the case of any assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan evidenced by a Note, Borrower shall issue one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount to the designated assignee, and the old Notes shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower marked “canceled.”

(e) Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of a completed Assignment and Acceptance, and subject to any consent required from the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Term Loan B Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 10.6(b) (which consent of the Collateral Agent, the Term Loan B Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, must be evidenced by the Collateral Agent’s, the Term Loan B Agent’s, the Issuing Lender’s and the Swing Line Lender’s execution of an acceptance to such Assignment and Acceptance), the Administrative Agent shall accept such assignment, record the information contained therein in the Register and provide to the Collateral Agent a copy of the fully executed Assignment and Acceptance.

(f) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitments, the Loans made by it and its Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Usage); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including without limitation, its Commitments hereunder) and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged; (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and the Borrower, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and (iii) a participant shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except (A) action directly effecting an extension of the maturity dates or decrease in the principal amount of the Loans or the reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit, (B) action directly effecting an extension of the due dates or a decrease in the rate of interest payable on the Loans or the fees payable under this Agreement, or (C) actions directly effecting a release of all or a substantial portion of the Collateral or any Loan Party (except as set forth in Section 9.12 of this Agreement or any other Loan Document). The Loan Parties agree that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.21 and Section 2.22 of this Agreement with respect to its participation in any portion of the Commitments and the Loans as if it was a Lender; provided, that a participant shall not be

125

entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.21 or 2.22 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, unless the sale of the participation to such participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. In the event that any Lender sells participations in a Registered Loan, such Lender shall maintain a register, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, on which it enters the name of all participants in the Registered Loans held by it and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of the Registered Loan that is the subject of the participation (the “Participant Register”). A Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant Register (and each registered note shall expressly so provide). Any participation of such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be effected only by the registration of such participation on the Participant Register. The Participant Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(g) The Loan Parties hereby acknowledge that the Lenders and their Affiliates may sell or securitize the Loans (a ”Securitization”) through the pledge of the Loans as collateral security for loans to the Lenders or their Affiliates or through the sale of the Loans or the issuance of direct or indirect interests in the Loans, which loans to the Lenders or their Affiliates or direct or indirect interests will be rated by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇, Standard & Poor’s or one or more other rating agencies (the “Rating Agencies”). The Loan Parties shall cooperate with the Lenders and their Affiliates to effect the Securitization including, without limitation, by (a) amending this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and executing such additional documents, as reasonably requested by the Lenders in connection with the Securitization, provided that (i) any such amendment or additional documentation does not impose material additional costs on the Loan Parties and (ii) any such amendment or additional documentation does not materially adversely affect the rights, or materially increase the obligations, of the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents or change or affect in a manner adverse to the Loan Parties the financial terms of the Loans, (b) providing such information as may be reasonably requested by the Lenders in connection with the rating of the Loans or the Securitization, and (c) providing in connection with any rating of the Loans a certificate (i) agreeing to indemnify the Lenders and their Affiliates, any of the Rating Agencies, or any party providing credit support or otherwise participating in the Securitization (collectively, the “Securitization Parties”) for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (the ”Liabilities”) to which the Lenders, their Affiliates or such Securitization Parties may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Loan Document or in any writing delivered by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the Lenders in connection with any Loan Document or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and such indemnity shall survive any transfer by the Lenders or their successors or assigns of the Loans and (ii) agreeing to reimburse the Lenders and their Affiliates for any legal or other reasonable out of pocket expenses reasonably incurred by such Persons in connection with defending the Liabilities.

(h) For the avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this Section concerning assignments of Loans and Notes relate only to

126

absolute assignments and that such provisions do not prohibit assignments creating security interests in Loans and Notes, including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment by a Lender of any Loan or Note to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable law.

(i) For the avoidance of doubt, no assignment shall be or shall be deemed to be a discharge, rescission, extinguishment, novation or substitution of any Loan and any Loan so assigned shall continue to be the same obligation and not a new obligation.

10.7 Adjustments; Set-off. (a) Except to the extent that this Agreement provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under a particular Facility, if any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8(g), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such other Lender, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of the Obligations owing to such other Lender, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, in addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the 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, but excluding designated accounts held in trust for the benefit of a third party or for the payment of withholding taxes, in each case, to the extent such accounts are identified as such to the Agents by the Borrower), 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 the Borrower. Each Lender agrees to notify promptly the Borrower 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 Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If the Borrower is obligated to make any material payments under Section 2.21 (other than with respect to taxes) to any Lender or if any Lender fails to make any Loan (or other extension of credit) that it is required to make hereunder on the date that it is required to do so hereunder (each such Lender, an “Affected Lender”), then the Borrower, upon at least 5 Business Days prior irrevocable notice to the Agents and the Affected Lender, may permanently replace the Affected Lender with one or more substitute Lenders with the consent of

127

Agents (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (each, a “Substitute Lender”), and the Affected Lender shall have no right to refuse to be replaced hereunder. Such notice to replace the Affected Lender shall specify an effective date for such replacement, which date shall not be later than 15 Business Days after the date such notice is given. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any Affected Lender is also an Agent, the consent of such Agent shall not be required under this Section 10.8(a), but the consent of the other Agents shall be required.

(b) Prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Affected Lender and each Substitute Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance, subject only to the Affected Lender being repaid its share of the outstanding Obligations, together with its Pro Rata Share of the Applicable Prepayment Premium, if any, calculated as if this Agreement was terminated and all Obligations were paid in full as a result of a voluntary prepayment on the effective date of such replacement. If the Affected Lender shall refuse or fail to execute and deliver any such Assignment and Acceptance prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Affected Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance. The replacement of any Affected Lender shall be made in accordance with the terms of Section 10.6.

10.9 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 the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

10.10 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.

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

10.12 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.

128

10.13 Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) 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 State of New York located in the County of New York, the courts of the United States for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;

(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, to the Borrower at its address set forth in Section 10.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

(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; and

(e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

130

in any currency other than the Judgment Currency (the “Currency Due”) (or for the purposes of Section 2.9(f)), then, to the extent permitted by law, conversion shall be made at the Currency Exchange Rate on the Business Day before the day on which judgment is given (or for the purposes of Section 2.9(f), on the Business Day on which the payment was received by the Administrative Agent). In the event that there is a change in the Currency Exchange Rate between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given and the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent of the amount due, the Borrower shall to the extent permitted by law, on the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent, pay such additional amounts, if any, or be entitled to receive reimbursement of such amount, if any as may be necessary to ensure that the amount received by the Administrative Agent on such date is the amount in the Judgment Currency which (when converted at the Currency Exchange Rate on the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction) is the amount then due under this Agreement or such other Loan Document in the Currency Due. If the amount of the Currency Due (including any Currency Due for purposes of Section 2.9) from the Borrower which the Administrative Agent is so able to purchase is less than the amount of the Currency Due (including any Currency Due for purposes of Section 2.9) originally due to it, the Borrower shall indemnify and save the Agents and Lenders harmless from and against loss or damage arising as a result of such deficiency. This indemnity shall (i) constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, (iii) apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by any Agent or any Lender from time to time, (iv) survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement, and (v) continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or under any judgment or order.

SCHEDULE 4.6: Material Litigation

Industra/Matrix: ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. entered into a contract with Industra/Matrix Joint Venture (“Industra”) to convert ▇▇▇▇ & Talbot, Inc.’s ▇▇▇▇▇▇ plant to a chlorine dioxide bleaching process. The project was delayed and Industra did not pay some of its suppliers and subcontractors on the project, for which these suppliers and subcontractors asserted or threatened lien claims in an amount not exceeding $200,000. ▇▇▇▇ & Talbot, Inc. asserted claims of approximately $1 million against Industra in connection with these claims. Industra initially claimed change orders in the approximate amount of $600,000, and initially asserted a delay-related claim in the amount of approximately $1.9 million.

Industra paid off its subcontractors and suppliers who had liens on the project. Industra itself did not file a timely lien foreclosure action on its own lien, which lapsed. However, Industra filed an action in Multnomah County, Oregon, Circuit Court asserting claims for damages in excess of $1.5 million. Industra amended its complaint to seek $2.6 million in damages. ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. filed a motion for summary judgment based upon Industra’s lack of a proper contractor’s license, which motion was granted in its entirety. As a result, Industra’s lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice. Industra appealed the trial court’s decision to the Court of Appeals, which reversed in part the trial court ruling by concluding that the issue of the effect of the non-licensure by Industra should have been decided by the arbitrator and not by the trial court. The Court of Appeals did not address the issue of whether the non-licensure barred the claim, so there was no adverse ruling on that aspect of the trial court’s ruling.

After the Court of Appeals’ decision, ▇▇▇▇ & Talbot, Inc. petitioned for review before the Oregon Supreme Court, which granted review. Oral argument was heard May 9, 2006, and a final decision is anticipated within 6 to 9 months.

SCHEDULE 4.18: Environmental Matters

▇▇▇▇ & Talbot Ltd. – Mackenzie Pulp Operations: In June 2002, ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. was requested by Environment Canada, based on detection of environmental contamination in an effluent treatment pond at the Mackenzie pulp mill, to remediate the basin. The environmental contamination occurred before ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. acquired the mill as a result of a manufacturing process that was discontinued at the mill in 1993. ▇▇▇▇ & Talbot, Inc. has worked with British Columbia’s Ministry of Environment to develop an appropriate remediation strategy. ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. performed site testing and a series of partial basin dredges in 2003 and extensive dredging in 2004 and in 2005. The liability balance was $0.7 million at December 31, 2005, representing the estimated cost of removing the remaining sources of water contamination. Remediation costs charged to the liability in 2005 totaled $0.3 million. Further dredges are planned for 2006 and 2007 to complete the remediation.

St. Helens, Oregon: In 1992, the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ), based on detection of creosote and hydrocarbon contamination, determined that a vacant industrial site formerly owned by ▇▇▇▇ & Talbot, Inc. in ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, required further investigation. ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. is currently participating in the investigation phase of this site and completed additional bioassay and sediment testing and site analysis in 2004 and 2005. The remediation liability balance was $2.8 million at December 31, 2005, representing the low end of the range of estimated future remediation and monitoring costs at this site. The liability is for the estimated costs of soil, sediment and groundwater remediation and post-remediation monitoring costs, and is based on ▇▇▇▇ & Talbot, Inc.’s preliminary assessment of the nature and extent of site contamination and remediation methodology. ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. completed its sediment evaluation in 2005 and expects to establish site remedial action goals with ODEQ in 2006 upon their approval of ▇▇▇▇ & Talbot, Inc.’s ecological assessment. If ODEQ requires more extensive remediation or monitoring for any other reason, it is reasonably possible that up to $3.0 million of additional remediation and monitoring costs could be incurred based on currently available information and analysis. Site testing costs charged against the liability in 2005 totaled $0.1 million and the reserve was decreased $0.8 million to reflect an updated estimate of the low end of the range of environmental costs. ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. currently expects the majority of the remediation costs ($2.8 million to $5.8 million) to be incurred in 2007 thru 2009, with post-remediation monitoring costs to begin in 2010 and to continue for 20 years.

Port ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Washington: ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. is working with the Washington Department of Ecology (WDOE) to remediate ▇▇▇▇ & Talbot, Inc.’s former mill site sediments and surrounding area at Port ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Washington. WDOE requested that ▇▇▇▇ & Talbot, Inc. perform an investigation of sediments in the bay adjacent to the mill site to determine the extent of wood waste accumulation. Remediation dredging was completed in 2003 as part of the sediment clean up action plan submitted to WDOE. ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. received approval of its remediation plan from WDOE in April 2004 and submitted a sediment baseline study in October 2004. The sediment baseline study indicated that the site was approximately 80 percent recovered to-date. In November 2004, ▇▇▇▇ & Talbot,

Inc. received a request from WDOE to perform additional study and analysis of the mill site sediments. ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. submitted a rebuttal to WDOE’s request for further study and is currently in discussions with WDOE to identify further remediation steps for the site. The liability balance for this site was $0.4 million at December 31, 2005, primarily for future monitoring costs related to the approved clean-up action plan. Remediation costs charged against the liability in 2005 totaled $0.1 million and ▇▇▇▇ & Talbot anticipates remediation costs to be $150,000 in 2006. ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. expects to incur remediation costs of $200,000 to $5,350,000 through 2014, with the high end of the range covering the costs of dredging.

▇▇▇▇ & Talbot, Inc. formerly leased a 72-acre site adjacent to the Port ▇▇▇▇▇▇ sawmill site as a log raft holding area from the Washington Department of Natural Resources (DNR). In 2003, the WDOE issued a “no further action” letter for the site declaring that there were negligible environmental effects from wood debris sediments at the log raft holding area. In 2004, DNR advised ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Inc. that it was proposing additional site investigations as a condition precedent to final termination of the lease. ▇▇▇▇ & Talbot, Inc. continues to discuss resolution of this issue with DNR and WDOE, but does not anticipate resolution until wood sediment standards for the state of Washington are established by WDOE, which could take many years. ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇ anticipates the total costs associated with this 72-acre site to be $100,000 in 2006 and $150,000 in 2007 and beyond.

Each Grantor will keep the Equipment and Inventory (other than Equipment and Inventory sold in the ordinary course of business in accordance with Section 6(h) hereof, Inventory in Transit, Inventory in the possession of customers and Equipment Under Repair) at the locations specified in Schedule III hereto or, upon not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Collateral Agent accompanied by a new Schedule III hereto indicating each new location of the Equipment and

-13-

Inventory, at such other locations in the continental United States as the Grantors may elect, provided that (i) all action has been taken to grant to the Collateral Agent a perfected, first priority security interest in such Equipment and Inventory (subject in priority only to Permitted Liens that, pursuant to the definition of the term “Permitted Liens,” are not prohibited from being prior to the Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties), and (ii) the Collateral Agent’s rights in such Equipment and Inventory, including, without limitation, the existence, perfection and priority of the security interest created hereby in such Equipment and Inventory, are not materially adversely affected thereby.

(c) Condition of Equipment. Each Grantor will maintain or cause the Equipment which is necessary in the proper conduct of its business to be maintained and preserved in good condition, repair and working order as when acquired and substantially in accordance with the applicable manufacturer’s manual, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and will promptly, or in the case of any loss or damage to any Equipment promptly after the occurrence thereof, make or cause to be made all repairs, replacements and other improvements in connection therewith which are reasonably necessary, consistent with past practice, or which the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to such end. Each Grantor will promptly furnish to the Collateral Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail any loss or damage in excess of $250,000 to any Equipment.

(d) Taxes, Etc. Each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to pay promptly when due all property and other taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon, and all claims (including claims for labor, materials and supplies) against, the Equipment and Inventory, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement.

(e) Insurance.

(i) Each Grantor will, at its own expense, maintain insurance (including, without limitation, comprehensive general liability, hazard, rent, property and business interruption insurance) with respect to all of its properties, including, without limitation, its Equipment and Inventory and all real properties leased or owned by it in such amounts, against such risks, in such form and with responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations as is required by any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction with respect thereto or as is carried generally in accordance with sound business practice by companies in similar businesses similarly situated and in any event, in amount, adequacy and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. Each policy for liability insurance shall provide for all losses to be paid to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties as its interests may appear, and each policy for property damage insurance shall provide for all losses to be adjusted with, and paid directly to, the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. In addition, each such policy shall (A) name each Grantor and the Collateral Agent (and such other Persons as the Collateral Agent may designate from time to time) as insured parties thereunder (without any representation or warranty by or obligation upon the Collateral Agent or such other Person) as their interests may appear, (B) contain an agreement by the insurer that any loss thereunder shall be payable to the Collateral Agent on its own account notwithstanding any action, inaction or breach of representation or warranty by any Grantor, (C) provide that there shall be no recourse against the Collateral Agent for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto and (D) provide that at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of cancellation (or 10

-14-

days’ prior written notice in the case of cancellation for failure to pay premium), lapse, expiration or other material adverse change shall be given to the Collateral Agent by the insurer. Each Grantor will, if so requested by the Collateral Agent, deliver to the Collateral Agent original or duplicate insurance policies and, as often as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, a certificate or certificates from a reputable insurance broker or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent outlining all material insurance maintained. Each Grantor will also, at the request of the Collateral Agent, execute and deliver instruments of assignment of such insurance policies and cause the respective insurers to acknowledge notice of such assignment.

(ii) Reimbursement under any liability insurance maintained by any Grantor pursuant to this Section 5(e) may be paid directly to the Person who shall have incurred liability covered by such insurance. In the case of any loss involving damage to Equipment or Inventory, any proceeds of insurance maintained by a Grantor pursuant to this Section 6(e) shall be paid to the Collateral Agent in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

(iii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or except as otherwise expressly provided in the Credit Agreement, upon any insurance payment in respect of any Equipment or Inventory, all insurance payments in respect of such Equipment or Inventory shall be paid to the Collateral Agent and applied as specified in Section 9(d) hereof.

(f) Provisions Concerning the Accounts and the Licenses.

(i) Each Grantor will, except as otherwise provided in this subsection (f), continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due under the Accounts. In connection with such collections, each Grantor may (and, at the Collateral Agent’s direction, will) take such action as such Grantor (or, if applicable, the Collateral Agent) may deem reasonably necessary to enforce collection or performance of the Accounts; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to notify the Account Debtors or obligors under any Accounts of the assignment of such Accounts to the Collateral Agent and to direct such Account Debtors or obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor thereunder directly to the Collateral Agent or its designated agent and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor and to the extent permitted by law, to enforce collection of any such Accounts and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor might have done. After receipt by any Grantor of a notice from the Collateral Agent that the Collateral Agent has notified, intends to notify, or has enforced or intends to enforce a Grantor’s rights against the Account Debtors or obligors under any Accounts as referred to in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, (A) all amounts and proceeds (including Instruments) received by such Grantor in respect of the Accounts shall be held by such Grantor for the benefit of the Collateral Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and shall be promptly paid over to the Collateral Agent or its designated agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be held as cash collateral and either (I) credited to the Loan Account so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or (II) if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, applied as specified in Section 9(d)

-15-

hereof, and (B) such Grantor will not adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment of any Account or release wholly or partly any Account Debtor or obligor thereof or allow any credit or discount thereon. In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) direct any or all of the banks and financial institutions with which any Grantor either maintains a Deposit Account or a lockbox or deposits the proceeds of any Accounts to send immediately to the Collateral Agent or its designated agent by wire transfer (to such account as the Collateral Agent shall specify, or in such other manner as the Collateral Agent shall direct) all or a portion of such securities, cash, investments and other items held by such institution. Any such securities, cash, investments and other items so received by the Collateral Agent or its designated agent shall (in the sole and absolute discretion of the Collateral Agent) be held as additional Collateral for the Secured Obligations or distributed in accordance with Section 9 hereof.

(ii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any breach or default under any material License referred to in Schedule II hereto by any party thereto other than a Grantor, (A) the relevant Grantor will, promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof, give the Collateral Agent written notice of the nature and duration thereof, specifying what action, if any, it has taken and proposes to take with respect thereto, and (B) such Grantor shall take such action as such Grantor deems appropriate under the circumstances.

(iii) Each Grantor will, at its expense, promptly deliver to the Collateral Agent a copy of each notice or other communication received by it by which any other party to any material License referred to in Schedule II hereto (A) declares a breach or default by a Grantor of any material term thereunder, (B) terminates such License or (C) purports to exercise any of its rights or affect any of its obligations thereunder, together with a copy of any reply by such Grantor thereto.

(iv) Each Grantor will exercise promptly and diligently each and every right which it may have under each License (other than any right of termination) to the extent deemed appropriate by such Grantor under the circumstances and will duly perform and observe in all respects all of its obligations under each License and will take all action necessary to maintain the Licenses material to its business in full force and effect. No Grantor will, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, cancel, terminate, amend or otherwise modify in any respect, or waive any provision of, any License material to its business referred to in Schedule II hereto in any manner that would be materially adverse to the Secured Parties.

(g) Provisions Concerning the Pledged Interests. Each Grantor will

(i) at the Grantors’ joint and several expense, promptly deliver to the Collateral Agent a copy of each notice or other communication received by it in respect of the Pledged Interests;

(ii) at the Grantors’ joint and several expense, defend the Collateral Agent’s right, title and security interest in and to the Pledged Interests against the claims of any Person;

-16-

(iii) not make or consent to any amendment or other modification or waiver with respect to any Pledged Interests or enter into any agreement or permit to exist any restriction with respect to any Pledged Interests other than pursuant to the Loan Documents; and

(iv) not permit the issuance of (A) any additional shares of any class of Capital Stock of any Pledged Issuer, (B) any securities convertible voluntarily by the holder thereof or automatically upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event or condition into, or exchangeable for, any such shares of Capital Stock or (C) any warrants, options, contracts or other commitments entitling any Person to purchase or otherwise acquire any such shares of Capital Stock, in each case unless such items are pledged to the Collateral Agent.

(h) Transfers and Other Liens.

(ii) Except to the extent expressly permitted by Section 7.3 of the Credit Agreement, no Grantor will create, suffer to exist or grant any Lien upon or with respect to any Collateral.

(i) Intellectual Property.

(i) If applicable, each Grantor has duly executed and delivered the applicable Grant of Security Interest in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. Each Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each licensee thereof to, take all action necessary to maintain all of the Intellectual Property in full force and effect, including, without limitation, using the proper statutory notices and markings and using each Trademark in such a manner as to maintain the validity of such Trademark and avoid any claim of abandonment for non-use, and no Grantor will (nor permit any licensee thereof to) do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any Intellectual Property may become invalidated; provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Grantor shall have an obligation to use or to maintain any Intellectual Property (A) that relates solely to any product or work, that has been, or is in the process of being, discontinued, abandoned or terminated, (B) that is being replaced with Intellectual Property substantially similar to the Intellectual Property that may be abandoned or otherwise become invalid, so long as the failure to use or maintain such Intellectual Property does not materially adversely affect the validity of such replacement Intellectual Property and so long as such replacement Intellectual Property is subject to the Lien created by this Agreement or (C) that is substantially the same as any other Intellectual Property that is in full force, so long as the failure to use or maintain such Intellectual Property does not materially adversely affect the validity of such replacement Intellectual Property and so long as such other Intellectual Property is subject to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement. Each Grantor will cause to be taken all necessary steps in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or political subdivision thereof to maintain each registration of the Intellectual Property

-17-

(other than the Intellectual Property described in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence), including, without limitation, filing of renewals, affidavits of use, affidavits of incontestability and opposition, interference and cancellation proceedings and payment of maintenance fees, filing fees, taxes or other governmental fees. If any Intellectual Property material to any Grantor’s business is infringed, misappropriated, diluted or otherwise violated in any material respect by a third party, the Grantors shall (x) upon obtaining knowledge of such infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation, promptly notify the Collateral Agent and (y) to the extent the Grantors shall deem appropriate under the circumstances, promptly ▇▇▇ for infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation, seek injunctive relief where appropriate and recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation, or take such other actions as the Grantors shall deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property. Each Grantor shall furnish to the Collateral Agent statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Intellectual Property and Licenses and such other reports in connection with the Intellectual Property and Licenses as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in writing, all in reasonable detail and promptly upon request of the Collateral Agent, following receipt by the Collateral Agent of any such statements, schedules or reports, the Grantors shall modify this Agreement by amending Schedule II hereto to include any Intellectual Property, written Licenses and material non-written Licenses, as the case may be, which become part of the Collateral under this Agreement, and shall execute and authenticate such documents and do such acts as shall be reasonably necessary to subject such Intellectual Property and such Licenses to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, no Grantor may abandon or otherwise permit any Intellectual Property to become invalid without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, and if any Intellectual Property is infringed, misappropriated, diluted or otherwise violated in any material respect by a third party, the Grantors will take such action as the Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property.

(ii) In the event that any Grantor shall (A) obtain rights to any new Trademarks necessary for the operation of its business, or any reissue, renewal or extension of any existing Trademark necessary for the operation of its business, (B) obtain rights to or develop any new patentable inventions, or become entitled to the benefit of any Patent, or any reissue, division, continuation, renewal, extension or continuation-in-part of any existing Patent or any improvement thereof (whether pursuant to any license or otherwise), (C) obtain rights to or develop any new works protectable by Copyright, or become entitled to the benefit of any rights with respect to any Copyright or any registration or application therefor, or any renewal or extension of any existing Copyright or any registration or application therefor, or (D) obtain rights to or develop new Other Intellectual Property, the provisions of Section 2 hereof shall automatically apply thereto and such Grantor shall give to the Collateral Agent notice thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. Except as otherwise provided herein or in the Credit Agreement each Grantor, either itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, shall give the Collateral Agent written notice of each application for the registration of any Trademark or Copyright or the issuance of any Patent with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, or in any similar office or agency of the United States or any country or any political subdivision thereof.

-18-

(iii) Each Grantor shall execute, authenticate and deliver any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to evidence the Collateral Agent’s security interest hereunder in such Intellectual Property and the General Intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby, and each Grantor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact to execute and/or authenticate and file all such writings for the foregoing purposes, all acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed, and such power (being coupled with an interest) shall be irrevocable until the date on which all of the Secured Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash (other than Unasserted Contingent Obligations) after the termination of each Lender’s Commitment and each of the Loan Documents.

Prior to the date hereof, each Grantor shall cause each bank and other financial institution with an account referred to in Schedule IV hereto to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent (or its designee) a control agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, duly executed by such Grantor and such bank or financial institution, or enter into other arrangements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, pursuant to which such institution shall irrevocably agree, among other things, that (i) it will comply at any time with the instructions originated by the Collateral Agent (or its designee) to such bank or financial institution directing the disposition of cash, Commodity Contracts, securities, Investment Property and other items from time to time credited to such account, without further consent of such Grantor, which instructions the Collateral Agent (or its designee) will not give to such bank or other financial institution in the absence of a continuing Event of Default, (ii) all cash, Commodity Contracts, securities, Investment Property and other items of such Grantor deposited with such institution shall be subject to a perfected, first priority security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent (or its designee), (iii) any right of set off, banker’s Lien or other similar Lien, security interest or encumbrance shall be fully waived or subordinated as against the Collateral Agent (or its designee), and (iv) upon receipt of written notice from the Collateral Agent during the continuance of an Event of Default, such bank or financial institution shall, in accordance with the applicable control agreement, send to the Collateral Agent (or its designee) by wire transfer (to such account as the Collateral Agent (or its designee) shall specify, or in such other manner as the Collateral Agent (or its designee) shall direct) all such cash, the value of any Commodity Contracts, securities, Investment Property and other items held by it. Without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, no Grantor shall make or maintain any Deposit Account, Commodity Account or Securities Account except for the accounts set forth in Schedule IV hereto.

(c) For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies hereunder and for no other purpose, following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Grantor hereby (i) grants to the Collateral Agent (or its designee) an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Grantor) to use, assign, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property now or hereafter owned by any Grantor, wherever the same may be located, including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof; and (ii) assigns to the Collateral Agent (or its designee), to the extent assignable, all of its rights to any Intellectual Property now or hereafter licensed or used by any Grantor. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, but subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement that limit the right of a Grantor to dispose of its property and Section 6(i) hereof, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Grantor may exploit, use, enjoy, protect, license, sublicense, assign, sell, dispose of or take other actions with respect to the Intellectual Property in the ordinary course of its business. In furtherance of the foregoing, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall from time to time, upon the request of a Grantor, execute and deliver any instruments, certificates or other documents, in the form so requested, which such Grantor shall have certified are appropriate (in such Grantor’s judgment) to allow it to take any action permitted above (including relinquishment of the license provided pursuant to this clause (c) as to any Intellectual Property). Further, upon the date on which all of the Secured Obligations have been paid in full in cash (other than Unasserted Contingent Obligations) after the termination of each Lender’s Commitment and each of the Loan Documents, the Collateral Agent (subject to Section 14(e) hereof) shall release and reassign to the Grantors all of the Collateral Agent’s right, title and interest in and to the Intellectual Property, and the Licenses, all without recourse, representation or warranty whatsoever and at the Grantors’ sole expense. The exercise of rights and remedies hereunder by the Collateral Agent shall not terminate the rights of the holders of any licenses or sublicenses theretofore granted by any Grantor in accordance with the second sentence of this clause (c). Each Grantor hereby releases the Collateral Agent from any claims, causes of action and demands at any time arising out of or with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Collateral Agent under the powers of attorney granted herein other than actions taken or omitted to be taken through the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final determination of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(d) If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement or obligation contained herein, the Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement or obligation, in the name of such Grantor or the Collateral Agent, and the expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be jointly and severally payable by the Grantors pursuant to Section 10 hereof and shall be secured by the Collateral.

(e) The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Other than the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral and shall be relieved of all responsibility for any Collateral in its possession upon surrendering it or tendering

-25-

surrender of it to any of the Grantors (or whomsoever shall be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct). The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its own property, it being understood that the Collateral Agent shall not have responsibility for ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith.

(f) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding (i) each Grantor shall remain liable under the Licenses and otherwise with respect to any of the Collateral to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this Agreement had not been executed, (ii) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of its rights hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of its obligations under the Licenses or otherwise in respect of the Collateral, and (iii) the Collateral Agent shall not have any obligation or liability by reason of this Agreement under the Licenses or with respect to any of the other Collateral, nor shall the Collateral Agent be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Grantor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder.

(g) The Collateral Agent may at any time following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default in its discretion (i) without notice to any Grantor, transfer or register in the name of the Collateral Agent or any of its nominees any or all of the Pledged Interests, subject only to the revocable rights of such Grantor under Section 7(a) hereof, and (ii) exchange certificates or Instruments constituting Pledged Interests for certificates or Instruments of smaller or larger denominations.

SECTION 9. Remedies Upon Default. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement:

(a) The Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to any other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all of the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral), and also may (i) take absolute control of the Collateral, including, without limitation, transfer into the Collateral Agent’s name or into the name of its nominee or nominees (to the extent the Collateral Agent has not theretofore done so) and thereafter receive, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, all payments made thereon, give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect thereof and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof, (ii) require each Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon the request of the Collateral Agent promptly, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral Agent at a place or places to be designated by the Collateral Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties, and the Collateral Agent may enter into and occupy any premises

-26-

owned or leased by any Grantor where the Collateral or any part thereof is located or assembled for a reasonable period in order to effectuate the Collateral Agent’s rights and remedies hereunder or under law, without obligation to any Grantor in respect of such occupation, and (iii) without notice except as specified below and without any obligation to prepare or process the Collateral for sale, (A) sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices, at any exchange or broker’s board or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable and/or (B) lease, license or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof upon such terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or any other disposition of the Collateral shall be required by law, at least five (5) Business Days’ prior notice to the applicable Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other disposition of the Collateral is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Grantor hereby waives any claims against the Secured Parties arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral may have been sold at a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Secured Obligations, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer the Collateral to more than one offeree, and waives all rights that such Grantor may have to require that all or any part of the Collateral be marshaled upon any sale (public or private) thereof. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that (i) any such sale of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent shall be made without warranty, (ii) the Collateral Agent may specifically disclaim any warranties of title, possession, quiet enjoyment or the like, (iii) the Collateral Agent may bid (which bid may be, in whole or in part, in the form of cancellation of indebtedness), if permitted by law, for the purchase, lease, license or other disposition of the Collateral or any portion thereof for the account of the Collateral Agent (on behalf of itself and the Lenders) and (iv) such actions set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above shall not adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any such sale of the Collateral. In addition to the foregoing, (i) upon written notice to any Grantor from the Collateral Agent, each Grantor shall cease any use of the Intellectual Property or any trademark, patent or copyright similar thereto for any purpose described in such notice; (ii) the Collateral Agent may, at any time and from time to time, upon five (5) Business Days’ prior notice to any Grantor, license, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis, any of the Intellectual Property, throughout the universe for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Collateral Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and (iii) the Collateral Agent may, at any time, pursuant to the authority granted in Section 8 hereof (such authority being effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), execute and deliver on behalf of a Grantor, one or more instruments of assignment of the Intellectual Property (or any application or registration thereof), in form suitable for filing, recording or registration in any country.

(b) In the event that the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell all or any part of the Pledged Interests pursuant to Section 9(a) hereof, each Grantor will, at such Grantor’s expense and upon request by the Collateral Agent: (i) execute and deliver,

-27-

and cause each issuer of such Pledged Interests and the directors and officers thereof to execute and deliver, all such instruments and documents, and do or cause to be done all such other acts and things, as may be reasonably necessary or, in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Agent, advisable to register such Pledged Interests under the provisions of the Exchange Act, and to cause the registration statement relating thereto to become effective and to remain effective for such period as prospectuses are required by law to be furnished, and to make all amendments and supplements thereto and to the related prospectus which, in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, are necessary or advisable, all in conformity with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable thereto, (ii) cause each issuer of such Pledged Interests to qualify such Pledged Interests under the state securities or “Blue Sky” laws of each jurisdiction, and to obtain all necessary governmental approvals for the sale of the Pledged Interests, as requested by the Collateral Agent, (iii) cause each Pledged Issuer to make available to its securityholders, as soon as practicable, an earnings statement which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Exchange Act, and (iv) do or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be necessary to make such sale of such Pledged Interests valid and binding and in compliance with applicable law. Each Grantor acknowledges the impossibility of ascertaining the amount of damages which would be suffered by the Collateral Agent by reason of the failure by any Grantor to perform any of the covenants contained in this Section 9(b) and, consequently, agrees that, if any Grantor fails to perform any of such covenants, it shall pay, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, an amount equal to the value of the Pledged Interests on the date the Collateral Agent demands compliance with this Section 9(b); provided, however, that the payment of such amount shall not release any Grantor from any of its obligations under any of the other Loan Documents.

(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9(b) hereof, each Grantor recognizes that the Collateral Agent may deem it impracticable to effect a public sale of all or any part of the Pledged Shares or any other securities constituting Pledged Interests and that the Collateral Agent may, therefore, determine to make one or more private sales of any such securities to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated 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 that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the seller than the prices and other terms which might have been obtained at a public sale and, notwithstanding the foregoing, agrees that such private sales shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to delay the sale of any such securities for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer of such securities to register such securities for public sale under the Exchange Act. Each Grantor further acknowledges and agrees that any offer to sell such securities which has been (i) publicly advertised on a bona fide basis in a newspaper or other publication of general circulation in the financial community of New York, New York (to the extent that such an offer may be so advertised without prior registration under the Exchange Act) or (ii) made privately in the manner described above to not less than fifteen bona fide offerees shall be deemed to involve a “public disposition” for the purposes of Section 9-610(c) of the UCC (or any successor or similar, applicable statutory provision) as then in effect in the State of New York, notwithstanding that such sale may not constitute a “public offering” under the Exchange Act, and that the Collateral Agent may, in such event, bid for the purchase of such securities.

-28-

(d) Any cash held by the Collateral Agent (or its agents or designee) as Collateral and all Cash Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of or collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral shall be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for the Secured Obligations and, to the extent required pursuant to Section 2.13 of the Credit Agreement and after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default applied (after payment of any amounts payable to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 10 hereof) in whole or in part by the Collateral Agent against, all or any part of the Secured Obligations, in a manner consistent with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Any surplus of such cash or Cash Proceeds held by the Collateral Agent and remaining after the date on which all of the Secured Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash (other than Unasserted Contingent Obligations) after the termination of each Lender’s Commitment and each of the Loan Documents, shall be paid over to whomsoever shall be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct.

(e) In the event that the proceeds of any such sale, collection or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Secured Parties are legally entitled, the Grantors shall be jointly and severally liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the highest rate specified in any applicable Loan Document for interest on overdue principal thereof or such other rate as shall be fixed by applicable law, together with the costs of collection and the reasonable fees, costs, expenses and other client charges of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent to collect such deficiency.

(f) Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that if the Collateral Agent complies with any applicable provincial, state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral, such compliance will not adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral.

(g) The Collateral Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including, but not limited to, this Agreement and the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of the Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent that any Grantor lawfully may, such Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Secured Obligations or under which any of the Secured Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Secured Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such laws.

SECTION 10. Indemnity and Expenses.

(a) Each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Collateral Agent and each other Indemnitee from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, fees, reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs,

-29-

expenses and disbursements) incurred by the Collateral Agent or such Indemnitee to the extent that they arise out of or otherwise result from or relate to or are in connection with this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Agreement), except claims, losses or liabilities resulting solely and directly from Collateral Agent’s or such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(b) Each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to pay to the Collateral Agent upon demand the amount of all reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including the reasonable fees, costs, expenses and disbursements of counsel for the Collateral Agent and of any experts and agents (including, without limitation, any collateral trustee which may act as agent of the Collateral Agent), which the Collateral Agent may incur in connection with (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, recordation, administration, amendment, waiver or other modification or termination of this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder, or (iv) the failure by any Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof.

SECTION 11. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be given in accordance with the notice provision of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 12. Security Interest Absolute; Joint and Several Obligations.

(a) All rights of the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, all Liens and all obligations of each of the Grantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term in respect of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, (iii) any exchange or release of, or non-perfection of any Lien on any Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guaranty, for all or any of the Secured Obligations, or (iv) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any of the Grantors in respect of the Secured Obligations (other than payment in full of the Secured Obligations). All authorizations and agencies contained herein with respect to any of the Collateral are irrevocable and are powers coupled with an interest.

(b) All of the obligations of the Grantors hereunder are joint and several. The Collateral Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion, enforce the provisions hereof against any of the Grantors and shall not be required to proceed against all Grantors jointly or seek payment from the Grantors ratably. In addition, the Collateral Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion, select the Collateral of any one or more of the Grantors for sale or application to the Secured Obligations, without regard to the ownership of such Collateral, and shall not be required to make such selection ratably from the Collateral owned by all of the Grantors. The release or discharge of any Grantor by the Collateral Agent shall not release or discharge any other Grantor from the obligations of such Person hereunder.

-30-

Section 13. Consent to Pledge. Each Grantor, in its capacity as a Grantor and a Pledged Issuer hereunder and in its capacity, if any, as a shareholder, member, partner or manager of any other Pledged Issuer, hereby acknowledges and consents to the grant of the security interest in the Collateral set forth herein as collateral security for the payment and performance of all of the Secured Obligations and agrees that: (i) notwithstanding the security interests of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation or liability whatsoever to any Grantor or Pledged Issuer, or (as between the Collateral Agent and such Grantor or Pledged Issuer) to any shareholder, member, partner or manager thereof or any creditor or other Person having any relationship, contractual or otherwise, with such Grantor or Pledged Issuer, nor shall the Collateral Agent be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Grantor or Pledged Issuer under the Constituent Documents of any Grantor or Pledged Issuer (unless and until the Collateral Agent is admitted as a partner or member of such Grantor or Pledged Issuer), or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment due any Grantor arising thereunder, and (ii) in the event that the Collateral Agent forecloses or otherwise realizes on the Collateral or the interest of any other shareholder, member or partner, as the case may be, of any Pledged Issuer, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Constituent Documents of any Pledged Issuer, the Collateral Agent, its designee or the purchaser at any sale in connection with such foreclosure or realization, at such Person’s option, to the extent admission as a shareholder, member or partner, as the case may be, is subject to the consent of such undersigned, shall be admitted and/or substituted as a shareholder, member or partner, as the case may be, of such Pledged Issuer (and, to the extent required by the Constituent Documents of such Pledged Issuer, such Pledged Issuer hereby consents to such transfer, admission and/or substitution) and shall be entitled to receive all benefits and exercise all rights in connection therewith pursuant to the Constituent Documents of such Pledged Issuer; provided, however, that neither the Collateral Agent (nor any of its successors or assigns), its designee or such purchaser shall have any liability for matters in connection with the Pledged Interests arising or occurring, directly or indirectly, prior to such Person’s becoming a shareholder, member or partner, as the case may be, of such Pledged Issuer.

SECTION 14. Miscellaneous.

(a) No amendment of any provision of this Agreement (including any Schedule attached hereto) shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by each Grantor and the Collateral Agent, and no waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any Grantor therefrom, shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

(b) No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent, the Lenders or the Issuing Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender provided herein and in the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law. The rights of the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender under any Loan Document against any party thereto are not conditional or contingent on any attempt by such Person to exercise any of its rights under any other Loan

-31-

Document against such party or against any other Person, including but not limited to, any Grantor.

(c) This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (i) remain in full force and effect, subject to paragraph (e) below, until the date on which all of the Secured Obligations have been paid in full in cash (other than Unasserted Contingent Obligations) after the termination of each Lender’s Commitment and each of the Loan Documents and (ii) be binding on each Grantor and all other Persons who become bound as debtor to this Agreement in accordance with Section 9-203(d) of the UCC, and shall inure, together with all rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender may assign or otherwise transfer their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement and any other Loan Document to any other Person pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all of the benefits in respect thereof granted to the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender herein or otherwise. Upon any such assignment or transfer, all references in this Agreement to the Collateral Agent, any such Lender or the Issuing Lender shall mean the assignee of the Collateral Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender. None of the rights or obligations of any Grantor hereunder may be assigned or otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, and any such assignment or transfer shall be null and void.

(d) Upon the date on which all of the Secured Obligations have been paid in full in cash (other than Unasserted Contingent Obligations) after the termination of each Lender’s Commitment and each of the Loan Documents, (i) subject to paragraph (e) below, this Agreement and the security interests and licenses created hereby shall terminate and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Grantors and (ii) the Collateral Agent will, upon the Grantors’ request and at the Grantors’ expense, without any representation, warranty or recourse whatsoever, (A) return to the Grantors (or whomsoever shall be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction shall direct) such of the Collateral as shall not have been sold or otherwise disposed of or applied pursuant to the terms hereof and (B) execute and deliver to the Grantors such documents as the Grantors shall reasonably request to evidence such termination, including termination letters with respect to any cash management agreements that were executed in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(e) This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Grantor for liquidation or reorganization, should any Grantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any Grantor’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Secured Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or

-32-

returned, the Secured Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

(f) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, EXCEPT AS REQUIRED BY MANDATORY PROVISIONS OF LAW AND EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE VALIDITY AND PERFECTION OR THE PERFECTION AND THE EFFECT OF PERFECTION OR NON-PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTEREST CREATED HEREBY, OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER, IN RESPECT OF ANY PARTICULAR COLLATERAL ARE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(g) In addition to and without limitation of any of the foregoing, this Agreement shall be deemed to be a Loan Document and shall otherwise be subject to all of terms and conditions contained in Sections 10.13 and 10.17 of the Credit Agreement, mutatis mutandis.

(h) Each Grantor irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action, suit or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

(i) 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 portions hereof or thereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

(j) Section headings herein are included for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose.

(k) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by facsimile or electronic mail shall be equally effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart.

WHEREAS:

Delaware corporation, as parent, the Secured Party, a Delaware limited liability company, in such capacity as Collateral Agent for and on behalf of the Lenders, the Agents and the Bank Product Providers (the Lenders, the Agents and the Bank Product Providers are, collectively, the “Credit Parties”), and the lenders from time to time that are party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”) as lenders, the Lenders have agreed to make available to the Debtor certain credit facilities on the terms and conditions set out in the Credit Agreement.

B. To secure the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations (as hereinafter defined), the Debtor has agreed to grant to the Secured Party for and on behalf of the Credit Parties, a security interest in respect of the Collateral (as hereinafter defined) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

C. In this Agreement and Recitals, all capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Credit Agreement.

THEREFORE for consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are acknowledged by the Debtor, the Debtor agrees with the Secured Party as follows:

1.	Grant of Security Interest

1.1 The Debtor hereby:

(a)

grants to the Secured Party, for the benefit of the Credit Parties, a security interest in; and

(b)

grants, mortgages and charges as and by way of a fixed and specific mortgage and charge to and in favour of the Secured Party, for the benefit of the Credit Parties,

all of the Debtor’s right, title and interest in and to all of the present and after-acquired personal property of the Debtor including, without limitation, each and every property described or referred to in Section 2 of this Agreement and any proceeds derived directly or indirectly from any dealing with such property or any proceeds therefrom;

(c)

charges as and by way of a floating charge, and grants to the Secured Party for the benefit of the Credit Parties, a security interest in and to:

(i)

all the Debtor’s right, title and interest in and to all its presently owned or held and after acquired or held real, immovable and leasehold property and all interests therein, and all easements, rights-of-way, privileges, benefits, licences, improvements and rights whether connected therewith or appurtenant thereto or separately owned or held, including all structures, plant and other fixtures (collectively, the “Real Property”); and

(ii)

- 2 -

subject to the charges and security interests in favour of the Secured Party created pursuant to this Section 1;

The grants, mortgages and charges and security interests created pursuant to this Section 1 are collectively the “Security Interest” and the property subject to the Security Interest and all property, assets and undertakings, expressed to be granted, mortgaged, charged or secured by any instruments supplemental hereto or in implementation hereof are collectively the “Collateral”.

1.2 Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, the Security Interest granted hereby does not and shall not extend to, and Collateral shall not include: (i) any agreement, contract, lease, instrument, right, franchise, licence or permit (the “Contractual Rights”) to which the Debtor is a party or of which the Debtor has the benefit, to the extent that the creation of the Security Interest herein would constitute a breach of the terms thereof or permit any person to terminate the Contractual Rights for failure to obtain the consent of that person, but the Debtor shall stand possessed of its interest therein in trust for the Secured Party for the benefit of the Credit Parties for the purposes and subject to the terms hereof to assign and dispose thereof as the Secured Party shall direct; (ii) the last day of the term of any lease or sublease, oral or written, or any agreement therefor, but upon the enforcement of the Security Interest contemplated herein, the Debtor shall stand possessed of such last day in trust to assign the same to any person acquiring such term; (iii) any consumer goods; (iv) the timber processing and manufacturing facilities and related goods (other than inventory) located on or related to the real property described in Schedule D (the “Midway Lands”), together with all present and after-acquired goods (other than inventory), chattel paper, documents of title, instruments and intangibles (other than accounts, accounts receivables or other debts, obligations or amounts owing to the Debtor with respect thereto and all choses in action with respect thereto) situate on, arising from or relating to, the Midway Lands; or (v) the Midway Lands.

1.3 Upon the request of the Secured Party, the Debtor will take any and all actions reasonably required to provide the Secured Party with the benefit of a security interest in such Contractual Rights and shall assign and grant a security interest in such Contractual Rights in favour of the Secured Party forthwith upon obtaining the consent to such assignment and security interest as required of the other parties thereto. The Debtor agrees that it shall, upon the request of the Secured Party, use all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any consent required to permit any Contractual Rights to be subjected to the Security Interest.

Motor Vehicles: A description of all motor vehicles and other “serial numbered goods” (i.e. trailers, manufactured homes, aircraft, boats and vessels) (including vehicle identification numbers) presently owned by the Debtor is set out in Schedule A to this Agreement.

(b)

- 6 -

interest in such tangible personal property (subject in priority only to Permitted Liens that pursuant to the definition of the term “Permitted Liens” are not prohibited from prior Liens in favour of the Secured Party, for the benefit of the Credit Parties), and (ii) the Secured Party’s rights in such tangible personal property, including, without limitation, the existence, perfection and priority of the Security Interest created hereby in such tangible personal property, are not materially adversely affected thereby.

The Debtor agrees with the Secured Party that:

(a)

The Debtor shall pay, perform, satisfy, fulfil and discharge the Secured Obligations when due.

(b)

Except as permitted by the Credit Agreement, the Debtor shall not convey, sell, lease, license, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral.

(e)

In the event that any Collateral, including, without limitation, proceeds thereof, is evidenced by or consists of chattel paper, instruments, securities or negotiable documents of title (collectively, the “Negotiable Collateral”), and if and to the extent that the Secured Party determines that perfection or priority of the Secured Party’s security interest is dependent on or enhanced by possession, the Debtor, promptly upon the request of the Secured Party, shall endorse and deliver physical possession of such Negotiable Collateral to the Secured Party.

(f)

The Secured Party may, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (i) notify any Person obligated to the Debtor on any debt, account or chattel paper or any obligor to the Debtor on an instrument to make payment thereunder to the Secured Party, whether or not the Debtor was theretofore making collections thereon, and (ii) assume control of any proceeds arising from such Collateral. The Debtor agrees that, subject to the terms of any cash management agreement entered into by the Debtor, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, it will hold for the benefit of the Secured Party, any of its or its Subsidiaries’ collections that it receives and immediately will deliver such collections to the Secured Party or a cash management bank in their original form as received by the Debtor or its Subsidiaries.

(g)

The Debtor will not create, incur or permit to exist, and will defend the Collateral against, and will take such other action as is necessary to remove, any and all security interests in and other claims affecting the Collateral, other than the Security Interest created by this Agreement, Permitted Liens, or such security interests or other claims as permitted in writing by the Secured Party, and subject to the foregoing, the Debtor will defend the right, title and interest of the Secured Party in and to the Collateral against the claims and demands of all Persons.

(h)

The Debtor will promptly, following demand from time to time by the Secured Party, authorize, execute and deliver any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers that the Secured Party may reasonably request to evidence the Secured Party’s Security Interest in any Intellectual Property and, where applicable, the goodwill of the business of the Debtor connected with the use of, and symbolized by, any such Intellectual Property.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, any receiver appointed by the Secured Party will (for purposes relating to responsibility for the receiver’s acts or omissions) be considered to be the agent of the Debtor and not of the Secured Party.

9.	Receiver – Powers

10.

Consultants

- 9 -

Debtor and its employees, including unrestricted access to the premises, books and records of the Debtor; all reasonable fees and expenses of such consultant shall be for the account of the Debtor and the Debtor hereby authorizes any such consultant to report directly to the Secured Party and to disclose to the Secured Party any and all information obtained in the course of such consultant’s employment.

11.

Disposition of Collateral

The Secured Party may exercise any or all of the rights and remedies contained herein without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except as required by applicable law) to or on the Debtor or any other person, and the Debtor by this Agreement waives each such demand, presentment, protest, advertisement and notice to the extent permitted by applicable law. None of the above rights or remedies will be exclusive of or dependent on or merge in any other right or remedy, and one or more of such rights and remedies may be exercised independently or in combination from time to time. Without prejudice to the ability of the Secured Party or a receiver to dispose of the Collateral in any manner which is commercially reasonable, the Debtor acknowledges that a disposition of Collateral by the Secured Party or a receiver which takes place substantially in accordance with the following provisions will be deemed to be commercially reasonable:

Collateral may be disposed of in whole or in part;

Collateral may be disposed of by public auction, public tender or private contract, with or without advertising and without any other formality;

(c)

any purchaser or lessee of Collateral may be a customer of any member of the Secured Party or the Credit Parties;

a disposition of Collateral may be on such terms and conditions as to credit or otherwise as the Secured Party or a receiver, in its sole discretion, may deem advantageous; and

(e)

the Secured Party or a receiver may establish an upset or reserve bid or price in respect of Collateral.

12.

Proceeds of Disposition/Deficiency

If such proceeds fail to satisfy the Secured Obligations, the Debtor shall be liable for the full amount of the deficiency resulting to the Secured Party and the Credit Parties.

(i)

the Secured Party may realize upon or enforce all or part of any security, guarantee or right from time to time held by it in any order it desires and

FORM OF OPINION

[Letterhead of Counsel to Loan Parties]

June 28, 2006

To each of the Agents and the Lenders party to the

Credit Agreement referred to below

Re:

▇▇▇▇ & Talbot, Inc. and its Subsidiaries

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), ▇▇▇▇ & Talbot Ltd., a Canadian corporation (“Borrower”), each of the other Loan Parties (as defined in the Credit Agreement referred to below) organized under the laws of Canada (the “Canadian Loan Parties”), and each of the other Loan Parties (as defined in the Credit Agreement referred to below) organized under the laws of the United States (the “U.S. Loan Parties”), in connection with the making of Loans, the issuance of Letters of Credit and Bank Products (each of the foregoing as defined in the Credit Agreement referred to below) to the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement, dated as of June 28, 2006 (the “Credit Agreement”), among the Loan Parties, the several lenders from time to time parties thereto (the “Lenders”), ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Brothers Inc., as sole arranger and sole bookrunner (in such capacity, the “Arranger”), ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Commercial Paper Inc., as syndication agent (in such capacity, the “Syndication Agent”), ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Financial Corporation Canada, a Nova Scotia unlimited liability company, as administrative agent (in such capacity, together with its permitted successors and assigns, the “Administrative Agent”), Ableco Finance LLC, as Collateral Agent (in such capacity, together with its permitted successors and assigns, the “Collateral Agent”) and Ableco Finance LLC, as Term Loan B Agent (in such capacity, together with its permitted successors and assigns, the “Term Loan B Agent”). This opinion is being delivered to you pursuant to Section 5.1(j) of the Credit Agreement. All capitalized terms used and not defined herein have the same meanings herein as set forth in the Credit Agreement.

In connection with this opinion, we have reviewed (i) the organization and existence of the U.S. Loan Parties, (ii) the proceedings of the U.S. Loan Parties in relation to the Loan Documents, (iii) the Loan Documents, (iv) the financing statements which have been filed by the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 4.20 of the Credit Agreement (the “Financing Statements”), and (v) such certificates and other documents of public officials, officers and other representatives of the Loan Parties as we have deemed relevant or proper as a basis for our opinions set forth herein. In this regard, we have relied as to factual matters on the representations and warranties contained in the Loan Documents. In addition, we have assumed the genuineness of signatures on original documents of all Persons other than officers and other

representatives of the Loan Parties, and the conformity to the original of all copies submitted to us as photocopies or conformed copies.

Based upon the foregoing and such investigations as we deem advisable and proper, we are of the opinion that:

1. Each (a) U.S. Loan Party is a corporation, limited partnership or limited liability company, as the case may be, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of its organization, (b) U.S. Loan Party has all requisite power and authority to (i) conduct its business as now conducted and as presently contemplated, (ii) execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party, and (iii) consummate the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, make the borrowings under the Credit Agreement, (c) U.S. Loan Party is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the character of the properties owned or leased by it or in which the transaction of its business makes such qualification necessary, and (d) Canadian Loan Party is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in the United States in which the character of the properties owned or leased by it or in which the transaction of its business makes such qualification necessary.

2. The execution, delivery and performance by each (a) U.S. Loan Party of each Loan Document to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or partnership action, (b) U.S. Loan Party of each Loan Document to which it is a party do not contravene any applicable statute, rule, regulation or law (including, without limitation, Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) or any judgment, writ, injunction, decree, order or ruling of which we have knowledge that names such U.S. Loan Party and is specifically directed to it or any of its properties, (c) Loan Party of each Loan Document to which it is a party do not breach, result in a default under or accelerate, or give any party the right to accelerate, any of the obligations of such Loan Party under any material contract, including, without limitation, the Indentures, (d) U.S. Loan Party of each Loan Document to which it is a party do not contravene any provision of its governing documents, (e) U.S. Loan Party of each Loan Document to which it is a party do not and will not result in or require the creation of any Lien (other than pursuant to the Loan Documents listed on Exhibit 1 hereto (the “U.S. Loan Documents”)) upon or with respect to any of its properties, and (f) U.S. Loan Party of each Loan Document to which it is a party do not and will not result in any suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to its operations or any of its properties.

3. No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or other regulatory body is required (a) in connection with the due execution, delivery and performance by any Loan Party of any U.S. Loan Document to which it is a party, (b) for the grant by any Loan Party pursuant to any U.S. Loan Document, or the perfection, of any Lien purported to be created thereby in any Collateral, or (c) for the exercise by any Secured Party of any of their rights and remedies under any U.S. Loan Document (except for the recordings and filings referred to in paragraph 5 below, all of which have been duly obtained or made and are in full force and effect and except as may be required in

-2-

respect of any sale of any Pledged Interests (as defined in the Pledge and Security Agreement) by laws affecting the offering and sale of securities generally).

4. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered by each U.S. Loan Party which is a party thereto. Each UCC financing statement has been duly authorized for filing by the applicable Loan Party. Each U.S. Loan Document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party which is a party thereto, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws from time to time in effect affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights and remedies and by general principles of equity.

5. Each of the Security Documents listed on Exhibit 2 hereto (the “U.S. Security Documents”) creates a valid security interest in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Collateral purported to be covered thereby as security for the obligations purported to be secured thereby. Each UCC financing statement is in appropriate form for filing and has been duly filed in the applicable office set forth on Schedule A hereto, which filings result in the perfection of the security interests in the Collateral covered by such UCC financing statements to the extent that such Collateral consists of the type of property in which a security interest may be created under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as currently in effect in the State of New York (the “UCC”) and in which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement in the applicable state. The description of the Collateral set forth in each UCC financing statement is sufficient to perfect a security interest in the items and types of collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code currently in effect in the applicable state. Other than nominal recording or filing fees, no fees, taxes or other charges are due or payable in any state in connection with the execution, delivery, filing or recordation of any UCC financing statement.

6. Each Loan Party that is a party to the U.S. Pledge and Security Agreement is the owner of the Pledged Interests which constitute interests in Persons organized under the laws of the United States (the “Pledged U.S. Interests”) and the Pledged Notes (each as defined in the U.S. Pledge and Security Agreement) in existence on the date hereof that are purportedly owned by such Loan Party. The Pledged U.S. Interests have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable, are free from preemptive rights, and constitute 100% of the issued and outstanding shares or other interests of Stock of the Persons issuing such Pledged Interests.

7. The security interest of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in that portion of the Pledged U.S. Interests consisting of the certificates representing the shares of Stock identified on Schedule VIII to the U.S. Pledge and Security Agreement (the “Pledged Securities”) is a perfected security interest upon delivery of such certificates to the Collateral Agent. Assuming that each Pledged Security is either in bearer form or, if in registered form, registered in the name of the Collateral Agent or indorsed by an indorsement in the name of the Collateral Agent or in blank, the Collateral Agent acquired its perfected interest in the Pledged Securities free of adverse claims. The security interest of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in that portion of the Collateral consisting of the instruments

-3-

identified on Schedule VII to the Pledge and Security Agreement (the “Pledged Instruments”) is a perfected security interest upon the Collateral Agent taking possession of the Pledged Instruments. The Collateral Agent’s perfected security interest in the Pledged Instruments is prior to any other security interest created under the UCC. The Collateral Agent has a perfected security interest in that portion of the Collateral consisting of general intangibles and other items in which a security interest may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement in the applicable state.

8. There is no restriction under Federal or [Oregon] [South Dakota] State law which would prohibit or prevent any Loan Party from mortgaging, owning, developing, operating and managing any Collateral which consists of real property (the “Real Property Collateral”). The Loan Parties have taken all steps, made all filings and obtained all permits, licenses and approvals to the extent required under Federal and [Oregon] [South Dakota] State law to enable them to mortgage, own, develop, operate and manage the Real Property Collateral.

9. The Real Property Collateral complies with all applicable zoning, use, setback, building code, occupancy, subdivision, land use, parking and development laws, rules and regulations and there is no legal action pending or threatened, or proposed change in zoning, which would affect the use and occupancy of the Real Property Collateral as a [ ].

10. Each Mortgage is in a form satisfactory for recordation in the of , and upon such recordation it will create a valid and effective lien of record on and security interest in the Real Property Collateral (including fixtures) described therein. The Financing Statements are in appropriate form for filing in the State of [Oregon] [South Dakota], and upon such filing will create, in favor of Lender, a lien upon the collateral described in the Financing Statements to the extent such lien can be created under the UCC by filing.

11. The Mortgages, the acknowledgments thereto and the financing statements with respect thereto (the “Mortgage Financing Statements”) comply with the laws of the State of [Oregon] [South Dakota], including all applicable recording, filing, and registration laws and regulations, and are adequate and legally sufficient for the purposes intended to be accomplished thereby. The property description of the Real Property Collateral contained in the Mortgages, if accurate, is a legally sufficient description of such property for the purpose of creating and maintaining the Liens thereon purported to be created by the Mortgages and for the purposes of all applicable recording, filing and registration laws.

12. In a proceeding to enforce the Mortgages, a State court or a Federal court sitting in [Oregon] [South Dakota] as the forum state and applying [Oregon] [South Dakota] conflict of law rules (in either case, a “[Oregon] [South Dakota] Court”) will give effect to the designation by the parties of New York law as the governing law with respect to the Loan Documents unless the [Oregon] [South Dakota] Court involved were to determine that (i) the State of New York has no substantial relationship to the parties or transactions involved; (ii) there is no reasonable basis for choosing the law of New York; (iii) another state has a materially greater interest than the State of New York; or (iv) the result obtained from applying New York law would be contrary to [Oregon] [South Dakota] public policy.

13. The cash management agreements listed on Exhibit 3 hereto (the “U.S. Cash Management Agreements”) are effective to perfect the security interests granted to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in the deposit accounts and the funds deposited therein under the Uniform Commercial Code (the “[Applicable State] UCC”), with the consequences of perfection by control.

14. The control agreements listed on Exhibit 4 hereto (the “U.S. Control Agreements”) are effective to perfect the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in all securities accounts, and in all securities entitlements (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(17) of the [Applicable State] UCC) with respect to all financial assets (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(9) of the [Applicable State] UCC) credited to the securities accounts from time to time, under the [Applicable State] UCC, and such perfected security interests have priority over all other security interests consensually created by each Loan Party in such Collateral, subject to Section 8-511 of the [Applicable State] UCC.

15. To the best of our knowledge there is no pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding (a) with respect to the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, or (b) affecting any Loan Party before any United States court, United States arbitrator or United States Governmental Authority which may materially adversely affect the operations or condition, financial or otherwise, of any Loan Party or the ability of any Loan Party to perform its obligations under any Loan Document to which it is a party.

16. None of the Loan Parties is (a) an “investment company” or a company “controlled by” an “investment company”, or an “affiliated person” of , or “promoter” or “principal underwriter” for, an “investment company” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or (b) a “holding company,” or a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company,” or an “affiliate” of a “holding company” or of a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company” within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.

17. The making of the Loans and the other financial accommodations, the execution and delivery by the Secured Parties of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the exercise by any Secured Party of any of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents do not and will not (a) require any Secured Party to qualify or obtain any certificate of authority to do business in the State of [Oregon] [South Dakota], or (b) subject any Secured Party to any requirement to make any filings or pay any fees or taxes required of foreign corporations doing business in the State of [Oregon] [South Dakota].

18. The choice of New York law to govern the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents is a valid choice of law and will be upheld in a properly presented case by a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of [Oregon] [South Dakota]. The Loan Parties’ submission to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York in the county of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York is legal, valid and binding under the laws of the State of [Oregon] [South Dakota].

19. If a court of the State of [Oregon] [South Dakota] were to apply the usury law of such jurisdiction to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Loans, as made, and the accrual and payment of interest on the Loans and the Obligations in respect of the Letters of Credit and Bank Products would not violate any applicable usury law of such jurisdiction, or other applicable laws regulating the interest rate, fees and other charges that may be collected with respect to the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

Choice of Law and Enforcement of Foreign Judgements

55. British Columbia courts would give effect to the choice of New York law as the law governing the US Documents, on appropriate evidence of that law being introduced, provided:

(a)

that choice was bona fide and legal, that is, either there was a connection between New York and the transaction or the parties did not choose New York law to avoid the application of the law of another jurisdiction with which the transaction had the closest connection;

- 16 -

(b)

that choice was not contrary to British Columbia’s public policy, that is, to its essential public or moral interest; and

(c)

the British Columbia legislature had not enacted legislation providing that the substantive law of British Columbia was to apply to the particular situation before the British Columbia courts,

and provided that the British Columbia courts would apply British Columbia procedural law in any British Columbia legal proceeding. We are not aware of any reason under British Columbia law, or the laws of Canada applicable in British Columbia, that the British Columbia courts would not give effect to the choice of New York law as the law governing the US Documents.

56. The laws of the province of British Columbia would permit a common law action to be brought in the Supreme Court of British Columbia on a subsisting, final, monetary, in personam judgment by a court in a civil proceeding in New York, which was not under appeal and for which the time limited for appeals had expired, within six years of the date of the New York judgment. In such an action the Court would not consider the merits of the New York proceeding. Provided that the judgment creditor proved on a balance of probabilities that:

(a)

the New York court had jurisdiction under New York law to deal with the New York proceeding and to require the judgment debtor to appear before it;

(b)

either there was a real and substantial connection between the parties, the cause of action and New York or the judgment debtor had attorned to the jurisdiction of the New York court, and

(c)

the New York court had in fact granted the New York judgment in the judgment creditor’s favour,

the Supreme Court of British Columbia would grant a judgment enforcing the New York judgment, unless the judgment debtor proved on a balance of probabilities that:

(a)

the judgment creditor had committed a fraud on the New York court leading to the New York court concluding it had jurisdiction under New York law when it did not;

(b)

there were new facts, which the judgment debtor could not previously have discovered exercising due diligence, suggesting the judgment creditor had obtained the New York judgment by fraud going to its merits;

(c)

the New York court’s procedure was contrary to British Columbia’s principles of natural or fundamental justice;

(d)

the New York judgment was contrary to British Columbia’s public policy, that is to its essential concepts of justice or its basic morality, for example because it enforced foreign revenue, tax, expropriatory or penal laws or was contrary to an order under the Foreign Extraterritorial Measures Act or the Competition Act; or

- 17 -

(e)

there was a manifest error on the face of the New York judgment.

The Supreme Court of British Columbia would apply British Columbia law with respect to the procedures for the enforcement of the New York judgment.

This opinion is delivered to you solely for your use and benefit and the use and benefit of the Collateral Agent’s and the Lenders’ successors, assigns and participants, and the lenders that may be a party from time to time under the Credit Agreement in connection with this transaction and may not be relied upon by or distributed to or used by third parties or used for any other purpose without our prior express written consent.

Yours very truly,

(b)

the enforceability of the Documents may be limited by general principles of equity and the obligation to act in a reasonable manner, and no opinion is expressed regarding the availability of any equitable remedy (including those of specific performance and injunction) which remedies are only available in the discretion of a court of competent jurisdiction;

(c)	the enforcement of the Documents is subject to the discretion of a court of competent jurisdiction to impose restrictions on the rights of lenders to enforce immediate payment of amounts stated to be payable on demand;

(e)

a Court in British Columbia may reserve to itself an inherent power to decline to hear an action if it is contrary to public policy (as such phrase is understood in British Columbia) for it to do so, or if it is not the proper forum to hear such action or concurrent proceedings are brought elsewhere;

(f)	the awarding of costs is in the discretion of a court of competent jurisdiction;

(g)

pursuant to the Currency Act (Canada), a judgment by a court in any province in Canada may be awarded in Canadian currency only and such judgment may be based on a rate of exchange in existence on a day other than the day of payment of such judgment. In respect of the enforcement of a foreign judgment, the Court’s judgment would be in Canadian dollars, converted from the currency of the foreign judgment at the rate of exchange applicable on a conversion date which would be in the discretion of the Court, unless the Court considered that the judgment creditor would be most truly and exactly compensated if all or part of the money payable under the British Columbia judgment were measured in the currency of the foreign judgment, in which case the Court would give judgment for the amount of Canadian dollars necessary to purchase the equivalent amount of the currency of the foreign judgment at a British Columbia chartered bank on the last banking day before the judgment debtor paid the amount of the British Columbia judgment to the judgment creditor;

(h)	any requirement in any of the Documents that interest be paid at a higher rate after than before default may not be enforceable;

(i)	any requirement that interest (as defined in the Criminal Code (Canada)) be paid at a rate in excess of 60% per annum may contravene Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada) and may not be enforceable;

(m)	a provision in the Documents which purports to waive any statutory rights or defences which might be available to, or constitute a discharge of the liability of the Loan Parties may not be enforceable;

(n)

no opinion is expressed regarding the enforceability of any provision in the Documents which purports to exculpate the Collateral Agent, its agents or any receiver, manager or receiver manager appointed by them from liability in respect of acts or omissions which may be illegal, fraudulent or involve wilful misconduct;

(o)

the effectiveness of provisions which purport to relieve a Person from a liability or duty otherwise owed may be limited by law, and provisions requiring indemnification or reimbursement may not be enforced by a court, to the extent that they relate to the failure of such Person to have performed such liability or duty;

(p)	no opinion is expressed regarding the enforceability of any provisions in any of the Documents to the effect that modifications, amendments or waivers of or with respect to the Documents that are not in writing will be ineffective;

(q)	no opinion is expressed as to the legal or beneficial title of any of the Loan Parties to, or any other rights of the Loan Parties in, any Collateral, except as set out in opinion paragraphs 36 and 48 through 54 above;

(r)	we express no opinion as to the priority of any security interest or floating charge created by the PPSA Security Documents;

(s)

the PPSA and the Ontario PPSA impose certain obligations on secured parties which cannot be varied by contract; the PPSA and the Ontario PPSA may also affect the enforcement of certain rights and remedies contained in the Documents to the extent that those rights and remedies are inconsistent with or contrary to the PPSA and the Ontario PPSA. The enforceability of the PPSA Security Documents is subject to any estoppel based on incorrect information given in response to a demand for information made pursuant to Section 18 of the PPSA or under the Ontario PPSA;

- 2 -

(t)

a receiver or receiver and manager appointed pursuant to the provisions of the Documents may, for certain purposes, be treated by a court as being the agent of the Collateral Agent and not solely the agent of the Loan Parties (and the Collateral Agent may not be deemed to be acting as the agents and attorneys of the Loan Parties in making such appointment), notwithstanding any agreement to the contrary. In appointing a receiver, receiver-manager or receiver and manager pursuant to the PPSA Security Documents, the Collateral Agent may only appoint a person who satisfies the requirements of the Ontario PPSA and section 64(2) of the PPSA;

(u)

no opinion is expressed regarding the creation, validity, enforceability or perfection of any security interest or other interest expressed to be created by or under the PPSA Security Documents with respect to any property of the Loan Parties, or any proceeds of such property, that is or are not identifiable or traceable;

(v)

notwithstanding that, subject to attachment, registration under the PPSA or the Ontario PPSA will generally perfect a security interest in all forms of personal property to the extent that the PPSA or the Ontario PPSA applies to such personal property, perfection by possession or control of certain types of personal property, including without limitation, instruments, securities, chattel paper, money, or negotiable documents of title, may provide additional rights to the party in possession or control of such personal property;

(w)	the security interests of the Collateral Agent in goods (as defined in the PPSA or the Ontario PPSA) will be defeated by certain claimants to whom the Loan Parties sell or lease such goods in the ordinary course of business in the circumstances described in the PPSA or the Ontario PPSA;

(x)

a security interest in serial numbered goods (as defined in the PPSA) or motor vehicles (as defined in the Regulations under the Ontario PPSA) which are classified as equipment or proceeds may be ineffective as against certain third parties, unless the vehicle identification number or serial number of such serial numbered goods has been set out in a financing statement or financing change statement, or in the case of motor vehicles, a buyer knew that the sale constituted a breach of the relevant security document;

(y)	no opinion is expressed regarding the creation, validity or perfection of any security interest or other interest in the PPSA Security Documents insofar as it relates to, any of the following property or any interest therein or any registration necessary or advisable with respect to:

(i)

any real property, fixtures, crops or mineral claims;

(ii)

any policy of insurance or contract of annuity;

(iii)

any permits, quotas, governmental authorizations, licences (other than as defined in the PPSA) or other similar property which is not personal property;

- 3 -

(iv)

any property to the extent that a security interest or other interest therein is governed by the provisions of the Railways Act (Ontario) or a statute of Canada including, without limitation, any vessel registered under the Canada Shipping Act (Canada) and any rolling stock, patents, trade-marks, copyrights and other intellectual property rights, other than the mortgages created by the Ships Mortgages in the Vessels;

(v)

any contractual right, which by its terms, any applicable law, or by the nature of the contract, or any permits, quotas, receivables, approvals, privileges, franchises, leases, or licences (other than as defined in the PPSA) or other similar property, which by its terms, applicable law, its nature or by the nature of the business of the Loan Party, cannot be the subject of a security interest or other interest, without the consent, authorization or approval of a third Person; and

(vi)

any debt owing to the Loan Parties by the Crown in right of Canada or any agent thereof;

(z)

no opinion is expressed as to any licences, permits or approvals that may be required in connection with the enforcement of the Documents by the Collateral Agent or by a person on its behalf, whether such enforcement involves the operation of the business of the Loan Party or a sale, transfer or disposition of their property and assets;

(aa)	The enforceability of the security interests in the PPSA Security Documents may be subject, as against an account debtor with respect to any property which is an account, to:

(i)

notice of the security interest and proof thereof being given to the account debtor;

(ii)

the terms of the contract between the Loan Party and the account debtor and any defence or claim arising out of the contract or a closely connected contract;

(iii)

any other defence or claim of the account debtor against the Loan Party accruing before the account debtor has knowledge of the security interest; and

(iv)

common law and statutory restrictions relating to assignment of Crown debts.

(bb)

insofar as any of the security constituted by the PPSA Security Documents consists of a mortgage, pledge, charge, security interest or assignment of or upon any agreement, lease, insurance policy or other document or any rent, income, proceeds or other interest derived from any lease, agreement, insurance policy or other document, any opinion pertaining thereto is subject to the qualification that notice of such security interest may have to be given to the obligor thereunder, consent of such obligor or other parties thereto may have to be obtained, and further that the Collateral Agent may be affected by the equities between the immediate parties thereto;

- 4 -

(cc)	we express no opinion as to the enforceability of any provision of the Documents which may be characterized by a court of competent jurisdiction as an unenforceable penalty and not as a genuine pre-estimate of damages;

(dd)

under the Court Order Interest Act (British Columbia), interest after judgment may be limited to the rate prescribed in that Act. In respect of the enforcement of a foreign judgment, if the foreign judgment included an interest component, it would be included in the principal amount of the British Columbia judgment, with interest accruing on the total from the date of the British Columbia judgment at the British Columbia post-judgment interest rate, unless the Court considered that the judgment creditor would be most truly and exactly compensated if all or part of the money payable under the British Columbia judgment were measured in the currency of the foreign judgment, in which case interest would accrue at the foreign interest rate most closely analogous to the British Columbia prime lending rate of banks to governments;

D.	PPSA RENEWAL AND AMENDMENTS

1. Renewals and Extensions: A financing statement registered pursuant to the PPSA may be registered for a perpetual period or for a period of 1 to 25 years from the date of registration. To extend any initial or extended registration period, either perpetually or for an additional period of 1 to 25 years, a financing change statement must be registered prior to expiration of the then current registration period. The registrations in the Personal Property Registries will expire and the security interests will cease to be perfected on the last day of the respective term set out in paragraphs B.1 and B.2 above unless registration is renewed on or before the day immediately preceding such date. Renewal is required notwithstanding seizure, repossession or commencement of litigation.

2. Amendments to Financing Statements: If a Loan Party transfers all or part of the collateral with the prior consent of the Collateral Agent, a financing change statement must be registered within 15 days of the transfer. Where the transfer is made without such prior consent, a financing change statement must be registered within 15 days after the Collateral Agent has knowledge of the information required to register the financing change statement. Failure to do so may result in a loss of priority. Additional registrations may be required in other jurisdictions if any of the Collateral is removed from British Columbia or Ontario or if a debtor’s sole place of business or chief executive office is moved from British Columbia or Ontario.

If the Collateral Agent learns that the name of a Loan Party has changed, a financing change statement must be registered within 15 days under the PPSA and 30 days under the Ontario PPSA after the Collateral Agent learns of the change of name and the new name. Failure to do so may result in a loss of priority.

The PPSA provides that a person learns of or knows information when, in the case of a corporation, other than a municipal corporation or local board thereof, information has come to the attention of a senior employee of the corporation with responsibility for matters to which the information relates under circumstances in which a reasonable person would take cognizance of it.

If the collateral includes any additional serial numbered goods (as defined in the PPSA) or a motor vehicle (as defined in the Regulations under the Ontario PPSA), a financing change statement should be filed specifying the serial numbers or vehicle identification number for these.

We assume no responsibility for registering any financing change statements, for reminding you of renewal dates, nor for notifying you if circumstances arise which necessitate registering a financing change statement.

FORM OF GUARANTY

GUARANTY (this “Guaranty”), dated as of June 28, 2006, made by each party listed as a “Guarantor” on the signature pages hereto (together with each other Person (as defined in the Credit Agreement referred to below) that guarantees all or any portion of the Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement referred to below) from time to time, each a “Guarantor” and collectively, jointly and severally, the “Guarantors”), in favor of Ableco Finance LLC, as collateral agent (the “Collateral Agent”), for the benefit of the Secured Parties (as defined in the Credit Agreement referred to below), pursuant to the Credit Agreement referred to below.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, Pope & Talbot, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”), Pope & Talbot Ltd., a Canadian corporation (the “Borrower”), the several lenders from time to time parties to the Credit Agreement referred to below (the “Lenders”), Lehman Brothers Inc., as sole arranger and sole bookrunner (in such capacity, the “Arranger”), Lehman Commercial Paper Inc., as syndication agent (in such capacity, the “Syndication Agent”), Wells Fargo Financial Corporation Canada, a Nova Scotia unlimited liability company, as administrative agent (in such capacity, together with its permitted successors and assigns, the “Administrative Agent”), the Collateral Agent and Ableco Finance LLC, as Term Loan B Agent (in such capacity, together with its permitted successors and assigns, the “Term Loan B Agent”), are parties to a Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (such agreement, as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, including any replacement agreement therefor, being hereinafter referred to as the “Credit Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the Parent directly or indirectly owns all of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock of the Borrower and each other Guarantor, and each Guarantor (other than the Parent) is a direct or indirect Subsidiary or an Affiliate of the Borrower;

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 5.1(a) of the Credit Agreement, each Guarantor is required to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties (as defined in the Credit Agreement), a guaranty guaranteeing all Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and all other Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement; and

WHEREAS, each Guarantor has determined that its execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty directly benefit, and are within the corporate purposes and in the best interests of, such Guarantor;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements herein and in order to induce the Lenders to make and maintain the Loans, issue the Letters of Credit and provide other financial accommodations pursuant to the Credit Agreement, each Guarantor hereby agrees with the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as follows:

SECTION 1. Definitions. Reference is hereby made to the Credit Agreement for a statement of the terms thereof. All terms used in this Guaranty which are defined in the Credit

Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings herein as set forth therein.

SECTION 2. Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby (i) unconditionally and irrevocably, jointly and severally, guarantees to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the punctual payment, as and when due and payable, whether by scheduled maturity, required prepayment, acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all Obligations from time to time owing under any Loan Document, whether for principal, interest (including, without limitation, all interest that accrues after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding of any Loan Party, whether or not a claim for post-filing interest is allowed in such proceeding), all reimbursement obligations or other liabilities with respect to any other financial accommodations (including, without limitation, in respect of Letters of Credit and Bank Product Obligations) extended to the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and all reasonable fees, commissions, expense reimbursements, indemnifications or otherwise (such Obligations, being hereinafter referred to as the “Guaranteed Obligations”), and (ii) agrees to pay any and all reasonable expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by any of the Secured Parties in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor’s liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any Loan Party to any of the Secured Parties under any Loan Document but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of an Insolvency Proceeding involving any Loan Party.

SECTION 3. Guaranty Absolute; Continuing Guaranty; Assignments.

(a) Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto. Each Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection and waives any right to require that any resort be made by any Secured Party to any Collateral. The obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty are independent of the Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor to enforce such obligations, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Borrower or any other Loan Party or whether the Borrower or any other Loan Party is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now or hereafter have in any way relating to, any or all of the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Loan Party or otherwise;

-2-

(iii) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any Collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(iv) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that such Guarantor may have at any time against any Person, including, without limitation, any Secured Party;

(v) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate, limited liability company or partnership structure or existence of any Loan Party; or

(vi) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by any Secured Party that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Loan Party or any other guarantor or surety (other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations).

This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Secured Parties or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

(b) This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall (i) remain in full force and effect until the date on which (A) all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, (B) any further commitments to extend credit under the Loan Documents shall have been terminated, (C) the Letters of Credit and Bank Product Obligations shall have been collateralized in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and (D) the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall have been terminated in accordance with the terms thereof (the “Guaranty Termination Date”), (ii) be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns and (iii) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Secured Parties and their successors, pledgees, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (iii), any Lender may pledge, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under any Loan Document (including, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Lender herein or otherwise, in each case, as provided in the Credit Agreement. Each Guarantor agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of this Section 3 and Section 13 hereof with respect to its participation in any portion of the Loans as if it was a Lender. None of the rights or obligations of any Guarantor hereunder may be assigned or otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent.

SECTION 4. Waivers. Each Guarantor hereby waives, to the extent permitted by law, (i) promptness and diligence, (ii) notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than any such notice expressly set forth in any of the Loan Documents) and this Guaranty and any requirement that the Secured Parties exhaust any right or take any action against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person or any Collateral, (iii) any right to compel or direct any Secured Party to seek payment or recovery of any amounts owed under this Guaranty from any one particular fund or source or to exhaust any

-3-

right or take any action against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person or any Collateral, (iv) any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or Lien or any property subject thereto and (v) any other defense available to such Guarantor other than payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor agrees that the Secured Parties shall have no obligation to marshall any assets in favor of such Guarantor or against, or in payment of, any or all of the Obligations. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated herein and in the Credit Agreement and that the waiver set forth in this Section 4 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to revoke this Guaranty, and acknowledges that this Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future.

SECTION 5. Interest. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that certain of the rates of interest applicable as to the Guaranteed Obligations may be computed on the basis of a year of 360, 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), as the same may be amended, replaced or re-enacted from time to time, whenever any interest is calculated using a rate based on a year of 360, 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, such rate determined pursuant to such calculation, when expressed as an annual rate is equivalent to:

(a) the applicable rate based on a year of 360, 365 or 366 days, as the case may be,

(b) multiplied by the actual number of days in a calendar year in which the period for such interest is payable (or compounded), and

In the event that it is held by a court of competent jurisdiction that Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada) applies to a payment under this Guaranty of “interest” (as defined in that section), then, notwithstanding any provision in this Guaranty, in no event shall the aggregate of such “interest” exceed the effective annual rate of interest on the “credit advanced” (as defined in that section) under this Guaranty lawfully permitted by that section and, if any payment, collection or demand pursuant to this Guaranty in respect of that “interest” (as defined in that section) is determined to be contrary to the provisions of that section, the amount of such payment, collection or demand in excess of that permitted under applicable law shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of the applicable Guarantor and the applicable Secured Party and the amount of such excess payment or collection shall be refunded to that Guarantor. For the purposes of this Guaranty, the effective annual rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles over the relevant term and, in the event of dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Collateral Agent will, absent manifest error, be prima facie evidence of such rate.

SECTION 6. Subrogation. No Guarantor will exercise any rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against the Borrower or any other Loan Party that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the

-4-

Secured Parties against the Borrower, any Loan Party or any other Person or any Collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Borrower, any Loan Party or any other Person, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security solely on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until the Guaranty Termination Date. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the Guaranty Termination Date, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent, to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Guaranty and the Credit Agreement, or to be held as Collateral for any Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts payable under this Guaranty thereafter arising. If any Guarantor shall make payment to the Secured Parties of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations and the Guaranty Termination Date shall have occurred, the Secured Parties will, at any Guarantor’s request and expense, execute and deliver to any Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the payment by a Guarantor.

SECTION 7. Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Each Guarantor hereby represents and warrants as follows:

(a) Such Guarantor (i) is a corporation, limited partnership or limited liability company, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state, province or other applicable jurisdiction of its organization, (ii) has all requisite power and authority to conduct its business as now conducted and as presently contemplated and to execute and deliver this Guaranty and each other Loan Document to which such Guarantor is a party, and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and (iii) is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the character of the properties owned or leased by it or in which the transaction of its business makes such qualification necessary, except, in the case of clause (iii), where the failure to be so qualified or the failure to be in good standing, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) The execution, delivery and performance by such Guarantor of this Guaranty and each other Loan Document to which such Guarantor is or will be a party (i) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company action, as applicable, (ii) do not and will not contravene its charter or by-laws, its limited liability company agreement or operating agreement or its certificate of partnership or partnership agreement, as applicable, or any applicable law, or any contractual restriction binding on or otherwise affecting such Guarantor or any of its properties, except in the case of this clause (ii) where the contravention of such other contractual restrictions, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (iii) do not and will not result in or require the creation of any Lien (other than pursuant to any Loan Document) upon or with respect to any of its properties, and (iv) do not and will not result in any default, noncompliance, suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of any permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to it or its operations or any of its properties, except in the

-5-

case of this clause (iv) where such default, noncompliance, suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the due execution, delivery and performance by such Guarantor of this Guaranty or any Loan Document to which such Guarantor is or will be a party, except for the filings referred to in Section 4.20 of the Credit Agreement and any other filings made in order to perfect the security interests of the Secured Parties.

(d) Each of this Guaranty and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is or will be a party, when delivered, will be, a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyances or transfers, reorganization or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally; (ii) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law); and (iii) requirements of reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, dated as of June 28, 2006 (such agreement, as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, including any replacement agreement therefor, being hereinafter referred to as the “Credit Agreement”), among ▇▇▇▇ & Talbot, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”), ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Ltd., a Canadian corporation (the “Borrower”), the several lenders from time to time parties thereto (the “Lenders”), ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Brothers Inc., as sole arranger and sole bookrunner (in such capacity, the “Arranger”), ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Commercial Paper Inc., as syndication agent (in such capacity, the “Syndication Agent”), ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Financial Corporation Canada, a Nova Scotia unlimited liability company, as administrative agent (in such capacity, together with its permitted successors and assigns, the “Administrative Agent”), the Collateral Agent and Ableco Finance LLC, as Term Loan B Agent (in such capacity, together with its permitted successors and assigns, the “Term Loan B Agent”), the Secured Parties have agreed to make certain financial accommodations to the Borrower;

WHEREAS, the Borrower is liable for all of the obligations owing to the Secured Parties pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party;

WHEREAS, in order to induce the Secured Parties to enter into the Credit Agreement, each of the Guarantors (as defined in the Credit Agreement) has executed and delivered that certain Guaranty (as defined in the Credit Agreement) in favor of the Secured Parties with respect to the obligations owing by the Borrower to the Secured Parties pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower is a party;

WHEREAS, each Obligor (as defined below) has made or may make certain loans or advances from time to time to one or more other Obligors; and

WHEREAS, each Obligor has agreed to the subordination of such indebtedness of each other Obligor to such Obligor, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

“Senior Debt” means, collectively, the Obligations (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and the Guaranteed Obligations (as defined in the Guaranty).

“Subordinated Debt” means, with respect to each Obligor, all indebtedness, liabilities, and other obligations of any other Obligor owing to such Obligor in respect of any and all loans or advances made by such Obligor to such other Obligor whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether due or to become due, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined, including all fees and all other amounts payable by any other Obligor to such Obligor under or in connection with any documents or instruments related thereto.

“Subordinated Debt Payment” means any payment or distribution by or on behalf of the Obligors, directly or indirectly, of assets of the Obligors of any kind or character, whether in cash, property, or securities, including on account of the purchase, redemption, or other acquisition of Subordinated Debt, as a result of any collection, sale, or other disposition of collateral, or by setoff, exchange, or in any other manner, for or on account of the Subordinated Debt.

Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”. The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”. Unless the context requires otherwise, (i) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, restatements, supplements or

-2-

modifications set forth herein), (ii) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns, (iii) the words “herein”, “hereof”, “hereby” and “hereunder”, and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (iv) all references herein to Articles, Sections, Clauses, Exhibits, Schedules and Annexes shall be construed to refer to Sections, Subsections, and Clauses of, and Exhibits, Schedules and Annexes to, this Agreement, and (v) the words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, accounts and contract rights.

The captions and headings contained herein are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement.

SECTION 2. Subordination to Payment of Senior Debt. As to each Obligor, all payments on account of the Subordinated Debt shall be subject, subordinate, and junior in right of payment and exercise of remedies, to the extent and in the manner set forth herein, to the prior payment in full in cash of the Senior Debt, the termination of the Loan Documents and any commitments to extend credit thereunder, and the cancellation or collateralization in accordance with the Credit Agreement of all Letters of Credit and Bank Product Obligations (hereinafter, “Paid in Full”).

SECTION 3. Subordination Upon Any Distribution of Assets of the Obligors. Except as permitted under the Credit Agreement, as to each Obligor, in the event of any payment or distribution of assets of any other Obligor of any kind or character, whether in cash, property, or securities, upon the dissolution, winding up, or total or partial liquidation or reorganization, readjustment, arrangement, or similar proceeding relating to such other Obligor or its property, whether voluntary or involuntary, or in an Insolvency Proceeding, or upon any other marshaling or composition of the assets and liabilities of such other Obligor, or otherwise (such events, collectively, the “Insolvency Events”): (a) all amounts owing on account of the Senior Debt shall first be Paid in Full before any Subordinated Debt Payment is made; and (b) to the extent permitted by applicable law, any Subordinated Debt Payment to which such Obligor would be entitled except for the provisions hereof, shall be paid or delivered by the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, assignee for the benefit of creditors, or other liquidating agent making such payment or distribution, directly to the Collateral Agent (or its designee) for the benefit of the Secured Parties for application to the payment of the Senior Debt in accordance with clause (a), after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution or provision therefor to the Secured Parties in respect of such Senior Debt.

SECTION 4. Payments on Subordinated Debt.

(a) Permitted Payments. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Obligor may make, and each other Obligor shall be entitled to accept and receive, payments on account of the Subordinated Debt in accordance with, and to the extent permitted under, the terms of the Credit Agreement.

(b) No Payment Upon Senior Debt Defaults. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and receipt of notice thereof from the Collateral Agent, and until such Event of

-3-

Default is cured or waived, each Obligor shall not make, and each other Obligor shall not accept or receive, any Subordinated Debt Payment.

SECTION 5. Subordination of Remedies. As long as any Senior Debt shall have not been Paid in Full, following the occurrence of any Event of Default and until such Event of Default is cured or waived, no Obligor shall, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent:

(a) accelerate, make demand, or otherwise make due and payable prior to the original due date thereof any Subordinated Debt or bring suit or institute any other actions or proceedings to enforce such Obligor’s rights or interests in respect of the obligations owed to it by any other Obligor;

(b) exercise any rights under or with respect to guaranties of the Subordinated Debt, if any;

(c) exercise any rights to set-offs and counterclaims in respect of any indebtedness, liabilities, or obligations of such Obligor to any other Obligor against any of the Subordinated Debt; or

(d) commence, or cause to be commenced, or join with any creditor other than the Secured Parties, in commencing, any Insolvency Proceeding or receivership proceeding against any other Obligor.

SECTION 6. Payment Over to the Collateral Agent. In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 3, 4, and 5, any Subordinated Debt Payments shall be received in contravention of such Sections 3, 4, and 5 by any Obligor before the date on which all Senior Debt is Paid in Full, each Subordinated Debt Payment shall be held by such Obligor for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall be paid over or delivered to the Collateral Agent (or its designee) for the benefit of the Secured Parties for application to the payment of the Senior Debt remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to give effect to such Sections 3, 4, and 5, after giving effect to any concurrent payments or distributions to the Secured Parties in respect of the Senior Debt.

SECTION 7. Authorization to Collateral Agent. If, while any Subordinated Debt is outstanding, any Insolvency Proceeding shall commence and be continuing with respect to any Obligor or its property: (a) the Collateral Agent hereby is irrevocably authorized and empowered (in the name of each Obligor or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, to demand, ▇▇▇ for, collect, and receive every payment or distribution in respect of the Subordinated Debt and give acquittance therefor and to file claims and proofs of claim and take such other action (including voting the Subordinated Debt) as the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interests of the Secured Parties; and (b) each Obligor shall promptly take such action as the Collateral Agent reasonably may request (i) to collect the Subordinated Debt for the account of the Secured Parties and to file appropriate claims or proofs of claim in respect of the Subordinated Debt, (ii) to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such powers of attorney, assignments, and other instruments as it may reasonably request to enable the Collateral Agent to enforce any and all claims with respect

-4-

to the Subordinated Debt, and (iii) to collect and receive any and all Subordinated Debt Payments.

SECTION 8. Certain Agreements of Each Obligor.

(a) No Benefits. Each Obligor understands that there may be various agreements between one or more Secured Parties and any other Obligor evidencing and governing the Senior Debt, and each Obligor acknowledges and agrees that such agreements are not intended to confer any benefits on such Obligor and that no Secured Parties shall have any obligation to such Obligor or any other Person to exercise any rights, enforce any remedies, or take any actions which may be available to them under such agreements.

(b) No Interference. Each Obligor acknowledges that each other Obligor has granted to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a Lien on the Collateral of such Obligor, and agrees not to interfere with or in any manner oppose a disposition of any Collateral by any Secured Party, in accordance with applicable law and the terms of the applicable Loan Documents.

(c) Reliance. Each Obligor acknowledges and agrees that the Secured Parties will have relied upon and will continue to rely upon the subordination provisions provided for herein and the other provisions hereof in entering into the Loan Documents and making or issuing and maintaining the Loans and other financial accommodations (including Letters of Credit and Bank Products) thereunder.

(d) Waivers. Except as provided under the Credit Agreement, each Obligor hereby waives any and all notice of the incurrence of the Senior Debt or any part thereof and any right to require marshaling of assets.

(e) Obligations of Each Obligor Not Affected. Each Obligor hereby agrees that at any time and from time to time, without notice to or the consent of such Obligor, without incurring responsibility to such Obligor, and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided for herein or otherwise impairing the rights of the Secured Parties hereunder: (i) the time for any other Obligor’s performance of or compliance with any of its agreements contained in the Loan Documents may be extended or such performance or compliance may be waived by the Secured Parties; (ii) the agreements of any other Obligor with respect to the Loan Documents may from time to time be modified by such other Obligor and the Secured Parties for the purpose of adding any requirements thereto or changing in any manner the rights and obligations of such other Obligor or the Secured Parties thereunder; (iii) the manner, place, or terms for payment of Senior Debt or any portion thereof may be altered or the terms for payment extended, or the Senior Debt may be renewed in whole or in part; (iv) the maturity of the Senior Debt may be accelerated in accordance with the terms of any present or future agreement by any other Obligor and the Secured Parties; (v) any Collateral may be sold, exchanged, released, or substituted and any Lien in favor of any Secured Party may be terminated, subordinated, or fail to be perfected or become unperfected; (vi) any Person liable in any manner for Senior Debt may be discharged, released, or substituted; and (vii) all other rights against any other Obligor, any other Person, or with respect to any Collateral may be exercised (or the Secured Parties may waive or refrain from exercising such rights).

-5-

(f) Rights of the Secured Parties Not to Be Impaired. No right of any Secured Party to enforce the subordination provided for herein or to exercise any other rights of such Person hereunder shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act by any Obligor, or any Secured Party hereunder or under or in connection with the other Loan Documents or by any noncompliance by any Obligor with the terms and provisions and covenants herein or in any other Loan Document, regardless of any knowledge thereof that any Secured Party may have or otherwise be charged with.

(g) Financial Condition of the Obligors. Except as provided under the Credit Agreement, each Obligor shall not have any right to require any Secured Party to obtain or disclose any information with respect to: (i) the financial condition or character of any other Obligor or the ability of any other Obligor to pay and perform Senior Debt; (ii) the Senior Debt; (iii) the Collateral or other security for any or all of the Senior Debt; (iv) the existence or nonexistence of any guarantees of, or any other subordination agreements with respect to, all or any part of the Senior Debt; (v) any action or inaction on the part of any Secured Party or any other Person; or (vi) any other matter, fact, or occurrence whatsoever.

(h) Acquisition of Liens or Guaranties. No Obligor shall, without the prior consent of the Collateral Agent, acquire any right or interest in or to any Collateral not owned by such Obligor or accept any guaranties for the Subordinated Debt, except in accordance with, and to the extent permitted under, the terms of the Credit Agreement and subject to the terms of this Agreement, and so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

SECTION 9. Subrogation.

(a) Subrogation. Until the Senior Debt has been Paid in Full, no Obligor shall have, or directly or indirectly exercise, any rights that such Obligor may acquire by way of subrogation under this Agreement, by any payment or distribution to any Secured Party hereunder or otherwise. Upon the date on which all Senior Debt has been Paid in Full, each Obligor shall be subrogated to the rights of the Secured Parties to receive payments or distributions applicable to the Senior Debt until the Subordinated Debt shall be paid in full. For the purposes of the foregoing subrogation, no payments or distributions to any Secured Party of any cash, property, or securities to which any Obligor would be entitled except for the provisions of Section 3, 4, or 5 shall, as among such Obligor, its creditors (other than the Secured Parties) and any other Obligor, be deemed to be a payment by any other Obligor to or on account of the Senior Debt.

(b) Payments Over to the Obligors. If any payment or distribution to which any Obligor would otherwise have been entitled but for the provisions of Section 3, 4, or 5 shall have been applied pursuant to the provisions of Section 3, 4, or 5 to the payment of all amounts payable under the Senior Debt, such Obligor shall, subject to rights of other creditors of such Obligor, be entitled to receive from the Secured Parties any payments or distributions received by the Secured Parties in excess of the amount sufficient to cause the Senior Debt to be Paid in Full. If any such excess payment is made to the Secured Parties, the Secured Parties shall promptly remit such excess to such Obligor and until so remitted shall hold such excess payment for the benefit of such Obligor.

-6-

SECTION 10. Continuing Agreement; Reinstatement.

(a) Continuing Agreement. This Agreement is a continuing agreement of subordination and shall continue in effect and be binding upon each Obligor until the date on which the Senior Debt has been Paid in Full. The subordinations, agreements, and priorities set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect regardless of whether any party hereto in the future seeks to rescind, amend, terminate, or reform, by litigation or otherwise, its respective agreements with any other Obligor.

(b) Reinstatement. This Agreement shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if, for any reason, any payment of the Senior Debt by or on behalf of any other Obligor shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Secured Party, whether as a result of an Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise.

SECTION 11. Transfer of Subordinated Debt. Except in accordance with, and to the extent permitted under, the terms of the Credit Agreement, and so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, no Obligor may assign or transfer its rights and obligations in respect of the Subordinated Debt without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, and any such assignment without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent shall be null and void. Any such transferee or assignee, as a condition to acquiring an interest in the Subordinated Debt shall agree to be bound hereby, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.

SECTION 12. Obligations of the Obligors Not Affected.

Each Obligor shall execute, acknowledge, deliver, file, notarize, and register at its own expense all such further agreements, instruments, certificates, financing statements, documents, and assurances, and perform such acts as the Collateral Agent reasonably shall deem necessary to effectuate the purposes of this

-7-

Agreement, and promptly provide the Collateral Agent with evidence of the foregoing reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Collateral Agent.

(b) No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure on the part of any Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights and remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges that may otherwise be available to the Secured Parties.

(c) Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made in this Agreement shall, except to the extent otherwise provided herein, survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as any Senior Debt shall have not been Paid in Full.

(d) Benefits of Agreement. This Agreement is entered into for the sole protection and benefit of the parties hereto, the Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect beneficiary of, or shall have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement.

(e) Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each Obligor, each Secured Party and their respective

-8-

successors and assigns except that no Obligor shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent.

(f) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(g) CONSENT TO JURISDICTION; SERVICE OF PROCESS AND VENUE. ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OF THE OBLIGORS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS. EACH OF THE OBLIGORS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY APPOINTS THE SECRETARY OF STATE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AS ITS AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING AND FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OUT OF ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS AND IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO IT IN CARE OF THE BORROWER AT ITS ADDRESS FOR NOTICES AS SET FORTH IN THE CREDIT AGREEMENT AND TO THE SECRETARY OF STATE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, SUCH SERVICE TO BECOME EFFECTIVE TEN (10) DAYS AFTER SUCH MAILING. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE SECURED PARTIES TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST ANY OBLIGOR IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. EACH OBLIGOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE JURISDICTION OR LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT REFERRED TO ABOVE AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH LITIGATION HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY OBLIGOR HAS OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER THROUGH SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO ITSELF OR ITS PROPERTY, EACH OBLIGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

(h) Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of each of the Obligors with respect to the matters set forth herein and shall not be contradicted or qualified by any other agreement, oral or written, before the date hereof.

-9-

(i) Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and no consent to any departure by any Obligor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by each of the Obligors and the Collateral Agent. Any such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

(j) Conflicts.

(i) In case of any conflict or inconsistency between any terms of this Agreement, on the one hand, and any documents or instruments in respect of the Subordinated Debt, on the other hand, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

(ii) If any terms of any documents or instruments in respect of the Subordinated Debt require consent or a waiver for any purpose intended to be effected hereby or by any other Loan Document, each Obligor hereby consents to the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document and the transactions contemplated thereby and waives any terms in any such agreement or instrument that would prohibit the borrowings or the Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent or any other term, covenant or condition set forth in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or that would conflict in any other way with the terms of any Loan Document. To the extent that any action or inaction is permitted by the terms of any Loan Document that is prohibited under any documents or instruments in respect of the Subordinated Debt (or to the extent that any Secured Party permits or waives any action in the future), each Obligor shall be deemed to consent to such action or inaction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, P&T Factoring Limited Partnership, in its capacity as lender under the Term Loan Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2005, among ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Ltd., as borrower, and P&T Factoring Limited Partnership, as lender (the “Term Loan Agreement”), hereby (A) consents to the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document and the transactions contemplated thereby (including, without limitation, the making of the Loans, the issuance of the Letters of Credit and the other financial accommodations and the granting of Liens to secure such Obligations), (B) agrees that any term or provision of the Term Loan Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document executed in connection therewith that would prohibit the execution, delivery and/or performance of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents is hereby deemed to be waived, and (C) agrees that to the extent that any action or inaction that is permitted by the terms of a Loan Document (or that the Agents and Lenders or any portion of them consent to after the date hereof, by way of amendment, consent, waiver or any other manner) would be prohibited by the Term Loan Agreement or any agreement, instrument or document executed in connection therewith, such action or inaction is hereby consented to.

(k) 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 portions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

(l) Interpretation. This Agreement is the result of negotiations between, and has been reviewed by the respective counsel to, the Obligors and the Secured Parties and is the

-10-

product of all parties hereto. Accordingly, this Agreement shall not be construed against the Secured Parties merely because of the Secured Parties’ involvement in the preparation hereof.

(m) Counterparts; Facsimile Execution. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by facsimile or electronic mail shall be equally effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by facsimile or electronic mail also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement.

(n) Termination of Agreement. Subject to Section 10(b) hereof, upon the date on which the Senior Debt shall have been Paid in Full after termination of the Loan Documents, this Agreement shall terminate and the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall, at the Obligors’ joint and several expense, and without any recourse, representation or warranty, promptly execute and deliver to each Obligor such documents and instruments as shall be reasonably necessary or available to evidence such termination.

SECTION 16. Additional Obligors. The initial Obligors hereunder shall be such of the Obligors as are signatories hereto as of the date hereof. From time to time subsequent to the date hereof, additional Obligors, as required by the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, may become parties hereto, as additional Obligors (each, an “Additional Obligor”), by executing and delivering a counterpart of or supplement to this Agreement. Upon delivery of any such counterpart or supplement to the Collateral Agent, notice of which is hereby waived by each Obligor, such Additional Obligor shall be an Obligor and shall be as fully a party hereto as if such Additional Obligor were an original signatory hereof. Each Obligor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Obligor hereunder. This Agreement shall be fully effective as to any Obligor that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any other Person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be an Obligor hereunder.

-11-

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, as of the date first above written.
