GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE FLOATING RATE NOTES

Section 3.01 Designation and Principal Amount. There is hereby authorized a series of Notes constituting Priority Lien Debt and designated as "Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes", initially limited in aggregate principal amount to US$35,000,000 (except for Floating Rate Notes authenticated and delivered in accordance with Section 3.03 of the Base Indenture upon transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Floating Rate Notes under Sections 3.04, 3.06, 3.07, 4.07 or 14.04 of the Base Indenture); provided that the Company may, at any time and from time to time, create and issue additional Floating Rate Notes in an unlimited principal amount which will be part of the same series as the Floating Rate Notes and which will have the same terms (except for the issue date, issue price and, in some cases, the first Interest Payment Date) as the Floating Rate Notes. The Floating Rate Notes originally issued on the Issue Date, together with any additional Floating Rate Notes subsequently issued, will be treated as a single series under this Indenture for all purposes. The Floating Rate Notes, including any additional Floating Rate Notes, may be issued from time to time upon written order of the Company for authentication and delivery of Floating Rate Notes pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Base Indenture.

Section 3.02 Maturity Date. The Maturity Date of the Floating Rate Notes is September 13, 2016.

Section 3.03 Form; Denomination; Payment of Interest.

(a) The Floating Rate Notes shall be substantially in the form set forth in Annex A hereto. The terms of such Floating Rate Notes are herein incorporated by reference and are part of this Second Supplemental Indenture.

(b) The Floating Rate Notes shall be issuable in denominations of US$1.00 and integral multiples of US$1.00 in excess thereof.

(c) Interest on the Floating Rate Notes (as calculated pursuant to clause (e) below) shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1, commencing November 1, 2012 and shall be paid until the principal of the Floating Rate Notes is paid. Interest on the Floating Rate Notes will accrue from and including the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including the Issue Date to but excluding the date on which interest is paid. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. From and after the occurrence of an Event of Default in respect of the Floating Rate Notes as set forth in this Indenture, the Company shall pay interest on overdue principal and on overdue interest (to the full extent permitted by law) at a rate of an additional 2% per annum.

(d) If any Interest Payment Date (other than the Maturity Date) falls on a day that is not a Business Day, interest payable with respect to such Interest Payment Date shall be paid on the next succeeding Business Day, with the same force and effect as if it were paid on the date such payment was due, and no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date to the immediately succeeding Business Day, except that if such Business Day is in the immediately succeeding calendar month, such Interest Payment Date (other than the Maturity Date) shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. If the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, principal and interest payable with respect to such Maturity Date shall be paid on the next succeeding Business Day, with the same force and effect as if it were paid on the date such payment was due, and no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such date.

(e) The interest rate on the Floating Rate Notes will be reset quarterly on February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1 of each year, commencing November 1, 2012 (each an "interest reset date"). The Floating Rate Notes will bear interest at a per annum rate equal to three-month LIBOR for the applicable interest reset period or initial interest period plus 10.0%, subject to a LIBOR floor of 3.0%. The interest rate for the initial interest period will be three-month LIBOR, determined as of two London Business Days prior to the Issue Date, plus 10.0%, subject to a LIBOR floor of 3.0%. The "initial interest period" will be the period from and including the Issue Date to but excluding the initial interest reset date. Thereafter, each "interest reset period" will be the period from and including an interest reset date to but excluding the immediately succeeding interest reset date; provided that, subject to the following sentence, the final interest reset period for the Floating Rate Notes will be the period from and including the interest reset date immediately preceding the Maturity Date to but excluding the Maturity Date. If payment is not made by the Company in respect of the Outstanding aggregate principal amount of Floating Rate Notes due on the Maturity Date, the Company shall continue to pay interest on the unpaid amount until paid at the rate provided herein (including the additional 2% per annum referred to herein) and the applicable three-month LIBOR shall continue to be calculated as set out herein until paid in full.

The interest rate in effect on each day will be (i) if that day is an interest reset date, the interest rate determined as of the interest determination date immediately preceding such interest reset date or (ii) if that day is not an interest reset date, the interest rate determined as of the interest determination date immediately preceding the most recent interest reset date or the Issue Date, as the case may be.

The interest rate applicable to each interest reset period commencing on the related interest reset date, or the Issue Date in the case of the initial interest period, will be the rate determined as of the applicable interest determination date. The "interest determination date" will be the second London Business Day immediately preceding the Issue Date, in the case of the initial interest period, or thereafter the second London Business Day immediately preceding the applicable interest reset date.

Three-month LIBOR will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the applicable interest determination date in accordance with the following provisions:

(i) LIBOR is the rate for deposits in U.S. Dollars for the three-month period which appears on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on the applicable interest determination date. "Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page" means the display designated on page "LIBOR01" on Reuters Screen (or such other page as may replace the LIBOR01 page on that service, any successor service or such other service or services as may be nominated by the British Bankers' Association for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. Dollar deposits).

(ii) With respect to an interest determination date on which no rate appears on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page as of approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such interest determination date, the Company shall request the principal London offices of each of four major reference banks in the London interbank market selected by the Company to provide the Calculation Agent with a quotation of the rate at which deposits of U.S. Dollars having a three-month maturity, commencing on the second London Business Day immediately following such interest determination date, are offered by it to the prime banks in the London interbank market as of approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such interest determination date in a principal amount equal to an amount of not less than US$1,000,000 that is representative for a single transaction in such market at such time. If at least two such quotations are provided, LIBOR for such interest determination date will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations as calculated by the Calculation Agent. If fewer than two quotations are provided, LIBOR for such interest determination date will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted as of approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such interest determination date by three major banks selected by the Company for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks having a three-month maturity commencing on the second London Business Day immediately following such interest determination date and in a principal amount equal to an amount of not less than US$1,000,000 that is representative for a single transaction in such market at such time; provided, however, that if the banks selected as aforesaid by the Company are not quoting such rates as mentioned in this sentence, LIBOR for such interest determination date will be LIBOR determined with respect to the immediately preceding interest determination date.

(f) For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) where any interest payable hereunder or under the Floating Rate Notes is expressed to be computed on the basis of a 360-day year, the annual rate of interest to which such stated rate in the Floating Rate Notes is equivalent shall be the stated rate multiplied by the actual number of days in any applicable year, being 365 or 366, as the case may be and divided by 360.

(g) The provisions set forth in Annex B hereto are herein incorporated by reference and are part of this Second Supplemental Indenture.

Section 3.04 Original Issue Discount Legend. The Floating Rate Notes are Original Issue Discount Notes and every Floating Rate Note issued pursuant to this Indenture shall include the following legend on its face:

Section 10.03 Reserved

Section 10.05 Limitation On Additional Debt

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not cause or permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, incur any Debt (including, without limitation, any Acquired Debt), except (i) Permitted Debt and (ii) provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time or as a consequence of the incurrence of such Debt, the Company or any Guarantor may incur Debt (including any Acquired Debt) if the Company's Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is at least 2.0 to 1.0. Even if the Company's Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is less than 2.0 to 1.0, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may incur Permitted Debt.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 10.05, in the event that an item of Debt meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (20) of the definition thereof or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 10.05 (other than (x) debt outstanding under the Credit Facilities on the date on which the Floating Rate Notes are first issued under this Indenture, which shall be treated as incurred pursuant to clause (1) of the definition of "Permitted Debt" and (y) the Floating Rate Notes, the PIK Toggle Notes and any Additional Secured Debt, which shall be treated as incurred pursuant to clause (2) of the definition of "Permitted Debt"), the Company shall classify (and subsequently may reclassify one or more times) such Debt in its sole discretion, and such item of Debt will, upon such classification or reclassification, as the case may be, be treated as having been incurred pursuant to only one of such clauses or pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 10.05. In addition, Debt may be incurred in reliance in part on one clause in the definition of "Permitted Debt" (or Section 10.05(a)) and in part in reliance on another clause in the definition of "Permitted Debt" (or Section 10.05(a)). Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value and the payment of interest in the form of additional Debt (including PIK Interest (as defined in the PIK Toggle Notes Indenture)), in each case in accordance with the terms of the underlying Debt at its time of incurrence by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Debt for purposes of this Section 10.05; provided, that the underlying Debt is incurred in accordance with the terms of this Indenture. For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. or Canadian dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Debt, the respective U.S. dollar-equivalent or Canadian dollar-equivalent principal amount of Debt denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Debt was incurred, in the case of term Debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Debt; provided, that if such Debt is incurred to refinance other Debt denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction or Canadian-dollar denominated restriction, as applicable, to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Debt does not exceed the principal amount of such Debt being refinanced. Any incurrence of Debt which complied with this Indenture at the time incurred shall be deemed not to violate this Indenture if the amount of Debt incurred later changes as a result of currency fluctuation.

(c) This Indenture shall not treat (1) unsecured Debt as subordinated or junior to secured Debt merely because it is unsecured or (2) senior Debt as subordinated or junior to any other senior Debt merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral.

Section 10.06 Limitation On Restricted Payments

(1) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of or immediately after giving effect to such Restricted Payment;

(2) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such Restricted Payment, the Company could incur US$1.00 of additional Debt (other than Permitted Debt) pursuant to Section 10.05; and

(3) immediately after giving effect to such Restricted Payment, the aggregate amount of all Restricted Payments declared or made after the Issue Date does not exceed the sum (without duplication) of:

(B) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds (together with the Fair Market Value of assets other than cash, including consideration received part in cash and part in assets other than cash) received by the Company from Capital Contributions or from the issuance or sale after the Issue Date (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary) of (i) Capital Stock of the Company, other than (x) Disqualified Capital Stock, (y) the proceeds of Capital Stock referred to in the proviso to clause (5) of Section 10.06(b) below to the extent used to purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire shares of Capital Stock of the Company pursuant to such clause (5) or (z) Excluded Contributions, or (ii) any Debt or other securities of the Company that are convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Capital Stock) of the Company which have been so converted, exercised or exchanged, as the case may be; plus

(C) without duplication of any amounts included in subclause (A) of this clause (3), so long as the Designation thereof was treated as a Restricted Payment made after the Issue Date, with respect to any Unrestricted Subsidiary that has been redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary after the Issue Date in accordance with the definition of "Restricted Subsidiary," the Company's proportionate interest in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Company's interest in such Subsidiary at the time of such redesignation as a Restricted Subsidiary; plus

(D) in the case of the disposition or repayment of any Investment constituting a Restricted Payment made after the Issue Date, to the extent not otherwise included in the Company's Consolidated Net Income, the amount of cash proceeds (or Cash Equivalents) received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Investment, net of any costs of disposition and taxes paid or payable in connection with such disposition or repayment; plus

(E) to the extent not otherwise included in the Company's Consolidated Net Income, the amount of the cash proceeds (or Cash Equivalents) received by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (1) upon the sale of any Unrestricted Subsidiary after the Issue Date, net of any costs of disposition and taxes paid or payable in connection with such sale, or (2) through distributions from an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

For purposes of determining the amount expended for Restricted Payments under this clause (3), property other than cash shall be valued at its Fair Market Value.

(b) The provisions of this Section 10.06 shall not prevent:

(1) the payment of any dividend or distribution within 60 days after the date of declaration thereof, if at such date of declaration such payment would comply with the provisions of this Indenture;

(2) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement of any shares of Capital Stock of the Company or Debt of the Company or any Guarantor by conversion into, or by or in exchange for, shares of Capital Stock of the Company (other than Disqualified Capital Stock), or out of the net cash proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company) of other shares of Capital Stock of the Company (other than Disqualified Capital Stock); provided, that any such net cash proceeds are excluded from Section 10.06(a)(3)(B) for the purposes of this calculation (and were not included in Section 10.06(a)(3)(B) at any time), and such net cash proceeds were received by the Company in respect of sales made after the Issue Date;

(3) the redemption, repayment or retirement of Junior Debt of the Company or any Guarantor in exchange for, by conversion into, or out of the net cash proceeds of, (x) a substantially concurrent sale or incurrence of Junior Debt of the Company or such Guarantor, as the case may be (other than any Junior Debt owed to a Restricted Subsidiary), that is not more senior in right of payment or as to the proceeds of collateral securing such debt than the Junior Debt being redeemed, repaid or retired, or (y) a substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company) of shares of Capital Stock of the Company; provided, that any such net cash proceeds are excluded from Section 10.06(a)(3)(B) (and were not included in Section 10.06(a)(3)(B) at any time);

(4) the retirement of any shares of Disqualified Capital Stock of the Company (a) by conversion into, or by exchange for, other shares of Disqualified Capital Stock of the Company, or out of the net cash proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company) of other shares of Disqualified Capital Stock of the Company (provided, that any such net cash proceeds are an Excluded Contribution) or (b) out of the net cash proceeds from the incurrence of Refinancing Debt (with respect to such Disqualified Capital Stock) incurred in compliance with Section 10.05;

(8) the declaration and payment of dividends to holders of any class or series of Disqualified Capital Stock of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries issued after the Issue Date in accordance with Section 10.05, provided, that for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date of issuance of such Disqualified Capital Stock or Preferred Stock, after giving effect to such issuance on a pro forma basis, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis would have had a Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of at least 2.0 to 1.0;

(12) distributions or payments of Receivables Fees.

In calculating the aggregate amount of Restricted Payments made after the Issue Date for purposes of clause (3) of the first paragraph of this Section 10.06, amounts expended under subclauses (1), (5) and (7) of the immediately preceding paragraph will be included in such calculation and amounts expended pursuant to subclauses (2), (3), (4) and (8) through (12) of the immediately preceding paragraph will not be included in such calculation; provided, that amounts under subclause (1) of the immediately preceding paragraph will only be included if the declaration thereof had not been counted in a prior period.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 10.06, (x) the amount, if other than in cash, of any Restricted Payment shall be determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company or a committee thereof, and (y) in the event that a Restricted Payment or Investment meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Restricted Payments described in the above clauses, including Section 10.06(a) or the definition of "Permitted Investment," the Company, in its sole discretion, may order and classify, and from time to time may reclassify, such Restricted Payment or Investment if it would have been permitted at the time such Restricted Payment or Investment was made and at the time of such reclassification. In addition, a Restricted Payment or Investment may be made in reliance in part on one clause and in part on another clause.

If the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary makes a Restricted Payment which, at the time of the making of such Restricted Payment, would in the good faith determination of the Company be permitted under the provisions of this Indenture, such Restricted Payment shall be deemed to have been made in compliance with this Indenture, notwithstanding any subsequent adjustments or restatements made in good faith to the Company's financial statements.

For the avoidance of doubt, any payment by the Company or any Guarantor in connection with the Restructuring, which payment is made on or prior to the Issue Date, shall not constitute a Restricted Payment.

Section 10.07 Limitation On Liens. The Company shall not, and shall not cause or permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to create, incur or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Liens on the Collateral that secure obligations under any Debt or related guarantee of the Company or any Guarantor, other than Permitted Liens. Subject to the foregoing, the Company will not, and will not cause or permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to create, incur or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Liens, other than Permitted Liens, that secure obligations under any Debt or related guarantee of the Company or any Guarantor, upon or with respect to any property or assets of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than property or assets constituting Collateral), unless:

(a) if such Lien secures Debt which is ranked equally and ratably with the Floating Rate Notes or any Guarantee, then the Floating Rate Notes or such Guarantee, as the case may be, are secured by such asset or property on an equal and ratable basis with such Debt so secured until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by such Lien or the Lien is a Permitted Lien, or

(b) if such Lien secures Debt which is subordinated to the Floating Rate Notes or any Guarantee, then the Floating Rate Notes or such Guarantee, as the case may be, are secured by such asset or property, and the Lien securing such other Debt shall be subordinated to the Lien granted to the Holders of the Floating Rate Notes or such Guarantee, as the case may be, at least to the same extent as such Debt is subordinated to the Floating Rate Notes or such Guarantee, as the case may be, until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien.

Any Lien created for the benefit of the Holders of the Floating Rate Notes pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall provide by its terms that such Lien shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon the release and discharge of the triggering Lien, which release and discharge in the case of any sale of any such asset or property shall not affect any Lien that the Collateral Trustee may have on the proceeds from such sale.

The Company and Restricted Subsidiaries may create, incur or cause or permit to exist Permitted Liens as described in the definition of "Permitted Liens".

Section 10.08 Limitation On Transactions With Affiliates.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not cause or permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to enter into or suffer to exist any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, the sale, purchase, exchange or lease of assets, property or services) with any Affiliate (each an "Affiliate Transaction") or extend, renew, waive or otherwise modify the terms of any Affiliate Transaction entered into prior to the Issue Date, unless:

(1) such Affiliate Transaction is between or among the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries or between or among Restricted Subsidiaries; or

(2) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction are not materially less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than the terms which could reasonably be obtained by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, at such time in a comparable transaction made on an arm's-length basis between unaffiliated parties.

In any Affiliate Transaction (or any series of related Affiliate Transactions) involving an amount or having a Fair Market Value in excess of $100,000 which is not permitted under clause (a)(1) of this Section 10.08, the Company shall obtain a resolution of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company certifying that they have approved such Affiliate Transaction and determined that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (a)(2) of this Section 10.08, and in any Affiliate Transaction or any series of related Affiliate Transactions involving an amount or having a Fair Market Value in excess of $10,000,000 which is not permitted under clause (a)(1) of this Section 10.08, the Company must obtain an opinion as to the fairness to the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by a nationally recognized accounting, investment banking or appraisal firm.

(b) The provisions of Section 10.08(a) will not apply to:

(1) any Restricted Payment made in compliance with Section 10.06 or any Permitted Investment;

(2) any employment agreement or compensation arrangement with officers, directors and employees in effect on the Issue Date, or entered into thereafter by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business;

(3) transactions in the ordinary course of business pursuant to any pension, share or partnership unit option, profit sharing, partnership unit or share appreciation rights or other employee benefit plan or agreement (including insurance, indemnification and reimbursement plans and arrangements for directors, officers and employees);

(5) issuances of Capital Stock, other than Disqualified Capital Stock, of the Company; or any Capital Contribution to the Company;

(6) any payments or other transactions pursuant to any tax-sharing agreement between the Company and any other Person with which the Company files a consolidated tax return or with which the Company is part of a consolidated group for tax purposes;

(7) any agreement as in effect or entered into as of the Issue Date or any amendment thereto or any transaction contemplated thereby (including pursuant to any amendment thereto) and any replacement agreement thereto so long as any such amendment or replacement agreement is not more disadvantageous to the Holders of the Floating Rate Notes in any material respect than the original agreement as in effect on the Issue Date;

(8) any transaction in the ordinary course of business, or approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company, between the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary and any Affiliate of the Company controlled by the Company that is a joint venture or similar entity;

(9) transactions with Affiliates solely in their capacity as holders of Debt or Capital Stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, where such Affiliates receive the same consideration as non-Affiliates in such transactions;

(10) any transaction with any Person who is not an Affiliate immediately before the consummation of such transaction that becomes an Affiliate as a result of such transaction;

(11) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of business, and that are on terms at least as favorable to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries as might reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party, or that are considered fair to the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the view of the Board of Directors of the Company;

(12) any reasonable and customary payment approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Company in connection with the registration for sale or distribution by any Affiliate of the Company of any Capital Stock of the Company, including reimbursements for reasonable and customary offering expenses, underwriting discounts and commissions;

(13) sales of accounts receivable, or participations therein, in connection with any Receivables Facility;

(14) any transaction in connection with which the Company obtains a written opinion from an Independent Financial Advisor that such transaction is fair to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, from a financial point of view; and

(15) any transaction contemplated by the Restructuring that is consummated on or prior to the Issue Date.

Section 10.09 Limitation On Asset Sales.

(a) The Company shall not, and shall not cause or permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, complete an Asset Sale unless:

(1) the Company or such applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such sale or other disposition at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of;

(2) not less than 75% of the consideration received by the Company or such applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of (A) cash or Cash Equivalents, or (B) Replacement Assets, and in each case set forth in subclauses (A) and (B) of this clause (a)(2), is received at the time of such sale or other disposition; provided, that the amount of (i) any Debt or other liabilities that would appear as liabilities on a balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP (other than subordinated Debt) of the Company or any such applicable Restricted Subsidiary that is actually assumed by the transferee in such Asset Sale (or a third party on behalf of the transferee) and from which the Company or such applicable Restricted Subsidiaries are fully and unconditionally released, and (ii) any securities or notes received by the Company or any such applicable Restricted Subsidiary which are converted into cash or Cash Equivalents within 180 days of such Asset Sale (to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received), will be deemed to be cash for purposes of this clause (a)(2) and to have been received at the time of such sale; and

(b) The Asset Sale Proceeds received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, may be applied, at the option of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary:

(1) if the assets subject of such Asset Sale constitute Notes Priority Lien Collateral, (i) first, to prepay, repay or purchase (or offer to prepay, repay or purchase, as applicable) any Priority Lien Obligations on a pro rata basis; and (ii) second, to prepay, repay or purchase (or offer to prepay, repay or purchase, as applicable) any Subordinated Lien Obligations on a pro rata basis; provided, that any repayment, prepayment or purchase of (or offer to prepay, repay or purchase) obligations under the Floating Rate Notes shall be made as provided under Section 4.01, through open-market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued unpaid interest) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Excess Proceeds Offer) to all Holders of Floating Rate Notes to purchase their Floating Rate Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Floating Rate Notes that would otherwise be purchased;

(2) if the assets subject of such Asset Sale do not constitute Notes Priority Lien Collateral, to prepay, repay or purchase (or offer to prepay, repay or purchase, as applicable) indebtedness under any Credit Facilities or any other secured Debt of the Company (including the Floating Rate Notes) or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided, that any repayment, prepayment or purchase of (or offer to prepay, repay or purchase) obligations under the Floating Rate Notes shall be made as provided under Section 4.01, through open-market purchases (to the extent such purchases are at or above 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued unpaid interest) or by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Excess Proceeds Offer) to all Holders of Floating rate Notes to purchase their Floating Rate Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus the amount of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the amount of Floating Rate Notes that would otherwise be purchased; or

(3) to make capital expenditures or to make an investment in properties and assets that are used or useful in the business of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries or in businesses reasonably similar to or ancillary to the business of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries as conducted at the time of such Asset Sale (including the acquisition of Capital Stock of any such business or businesses); provided, that (i) the Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio calculated as of the last day of the most recently ended quarter prior to the Asset Sale for which financial statements are required to be delivered does not exceed 2.5 to 1.0; and (ii) (x) such investment occurs, or (y) the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary enters into contractual commitments to so apply such Asset Sale Proceeds, subject only to customary conditions other than the obtaining of financing, in each case, within 365 days following the receipt of such Asset Sale Proceeds (and, in the case of any commitment referred to in clause (y) above, the transactions contemplated thereby are consummated within 180 days of the date such commitment is entered into); provided, further, to the extent Asset Sale Proceeds of Collateral are used to acquire additional assets, such additional assets (other than, for avoidance of doubt, Excluded Assets) are pledged subject to the Intercreditor Agreement and the Collateral Trust Agreement, as Collateral for the benefit of the Collateral Trustee, the Trustee and the Holders of Floating Rate Notes. Pending any such reinvestment (x) Asset Sale Proceeds of Notes Priority Lien Collateral shall, as promptly as practicable, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, be deposited in a Noteholder Proceeds Collateral Account pledged as Notes Priority Lien Collateral for the benefit of the Priority Lien Obligations, Subordinated Lien Obligations and ABL Debt Obligations in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement and the Collateral Trust Agreement, and (y) Asset Sale Proceeds of ABL Priority Lien Collateral shall, as promptly as practicable, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, be deposited in a deposit account or securities account pledged as ABL Priority Lien Collateral for the benefit of the ABL Debt Obligations, Priority Lien Obligations and Subordinated Lien Obligations in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement and the Collateral Trust Agreement.

If on the 45th day following any Asset Sale (or the 365th day if the Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio calculated in accordance with Section 10.09(b)(3)(i) does not exceed 2.5 to 1.0), the Available Asset Sale Proceeds exceed $7,500,000, the Company will apply an amount equal to such Available Asset Sale Proceeds to an offer to repurchase (i) the Floating Rate Notes and (ii) at its option, other Secured Debt, in each case at a purchase price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes and such other Secured Debt, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the purchase date (an "Excess Proceeds Offer"); provided, that if the aggregate principal amount of Floating Rate Notes (and other Secured Debt, if applicable) tendered pursuant to the Excess Proceeds Offer exceeds the Available Asset Sale Proceeds, the Company shall first repurchase the tendered Priority Lien Debt, including any Floating Rate Notes selected to be repurchased on a pro rata basis, by lot or in such other manner as the Trustee shall determine, before any Subordinated Lien Debt is repurchased. The Company may satisfy the foregoing obligations with respect to any such Available Asset Sale Proceeds by making an Excess Proceeds Offer with respect to such Available Asset Sale Proceeds prior to the expiration of the relevant 45-day period (or such longer period provided above) or with respect to Available Asset Sale Proceeds of less than $7,500,000.

If an Excess Proceeds Offer is not fully subscribed, the Company may retain and use for general corporate purposes or any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture the portion of the Available Asset Sale Proceeds not required to repurchase Floating Rate Notes (or other Secured Debt, if applicable). Upon completion of any Excess Proceeds Offer, the amount of Available Asset Sale Proceeds shall be reset to zero.

(c) If the Company is required to make an Excess Proceeds Offer, the Company shall mail, within 30 days of the 45th day following the receipt of Available Asset Sale Proceeds (or the 365th day if the Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio calculated in accordance with Section 10.09(b)(3)(i) does not exceed 2.5 to 1.0) exceeding $7,500,000 as specified in Section 10.09(b), a notice to the Holders, at the address appearing in the Register maintained by the Registrar, with a copy to the Trustee, stating the information set forth below. The notice, which shall govern the terms of the Excess Proceeds Offer, shall state:

(2) the purchase date (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed);

(3) the instructions that each Holder must follow in order to have Floating Rate Notes purchased, which shall be reasonable and customary for transactions of this nature; and

To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 10.09, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall be deemed not to have breached its obligations under this Section 10.09 by virtue of such compliance.

(6) customary non-assignment provisions in leases or other agreements entered in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practices, and customary restrictions imposed on the transfer and assignment of intellectual property,

(16) agreements entered into between a Restricted Subsidiary and another Restricted Subsidiary which second Restricted Subsidiary is not a Subsidiary of the first Restricted Subsidiary provided, that such agreement does not limit dividends or distributions to the direct parent or direct subsidiary of either such Restricted Subsidiary,

(17) restrictions contained in any Debt incurred in compliance with Section 10.05, provided, that, such restrictions, taken as a whole, are, in the good faith judgment of the Company's Board of Directors, no more materially restrictive with respect to such encumbrances and restrictions than those contained in the existing agreements referenced in clauses (1), (2) and (3) above and the Company determines in good faith that any such restriction will not affect the Company's ability to make principal or interest payments on the Floating Rate Notes,

The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer in respect of the Floating Rate Notes following a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the time and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Floating Rate Notes or portions thereof validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. In addition, notwithstanding anything in this Indenture to the contrary, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditional upon such Change of Control Triggering Event, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making of the Change of Control Offer. The Company also will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer in respect of the Floating Rate Notes to the extent it has previously or concurrently elected to redeem the Floating Rate Notes, and timely redeemed in full the Floating Rate Notes in accordance with such election pursuant to this Indenture.

The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Floating Rate Notes in connection with a Change of Control Offer.

The provisions under this Section 10.13 may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders (other than Holders that are the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, whose vote shall not be counted) of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes.

Section 10.14 Excess Cash Offer. In respect of each fiscal quarter ending after the Issue Date, the Company shall, within 15 days after the end of such fiscal quarter, make an offer to purchase Floating Rate Notes (an "Excess Cash Offer") in an aggregate principal amount equal to the lesser of (A) Excess Cash for such fiscal quarter (determined as of the last day of such fiscal quarter), less the aggregate amount of (i) any redemptions of Floating Rate Notes during such fiscal quarter pursuant to Section 4.01, (ii) any repurchases of Floating Rate Notes during such fiscal quarter pursuant to an Excess Proceeds Offer and (iii) any other voluntary acquisitions by the Company of Floating Rate Notes (whether by tender offer, open market purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise) during such fiscal quarter, and (B) the aggregate principal amount of Floating Rate Notes outstanding as of the Redemption Date (the "Excess Cash Amount")

An Excess Cash Offer shall be made on a pro rata basis, by lot or in such other manner as the Trustee shall determine for the Outstanding Floating Rate Notes, at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the purchase date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date).

If any Excess Cash remains after compliance with this Section 10.14, and provided that all Holders of Floating Rate Notes have been given the opportunity to tender their Floating Rate Notes for purchase in accordance with such Excess Cash Offer, the Company may use that Excess Cash for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Indenture.

If the aggregate principal amount of Floating Rate Notes tendered into an Excess Cash Offer exceeds the Excess Cash Amount, the Trustee will select the Floating Rate Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis, by lot or in such other manner as the Trustee shall determine.

Within five Business Days after the Company is obligated to make an Excess Cash Offer pursuant to this Section 10.14, the Company shall send a written notice, by first-class mail, to the Holders of the Floating Rate Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, accompanied by such information regarding the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries as the Company in good faith believes will enable such Holders to make an informed decision with respect to such Excess Cash Offer. Such notice shall state, among other things, the purchase price and the purchase date which shall be, subject to any contrary requirements of applicable law, a Business Day no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is given. Each notice of an Excess Cash Offer shall be accompanied by a certificate of the chief financial officer of the Company addressed to the Trustee certifying (and demonstrating with reasonable particulars) the calculation and application of the applicable Excess Cash Amount for such fiscal year.

The Company shall not be required to make an Excess Cash Offer for any fiscal quarter unless the Excess Cash Amount for such fiscal quarter would be equal to or in excess of $7,500,000 (the "Excess Cash Minimum"). If the amount of the Excess Cash Offer for any fiscal quarter would be less than the Excess Cash Minimum, such amount will be carried forward and accumulated and counted in the amount of future Excess Cash Offers until the Excess Cash Minimum is met.

The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Floating Rate Notes in connection with an Excess Cash Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulation conflict with this Section 10.14, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall be deemed not to have breached its obligations under this Section 10.14 by virtue of such compliance.

(4) Indenture. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Notes of the Company, designated as its Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes. The Company issued the Floating Rate Notes under an Indenture dated as of September 13, 2012 (the "Base Indenture"), as supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of September 13, 2012 (the "Second Supplemental Indenture" and the Base Indenture as so supplemented, the "Indenture") among the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and Computershare Trust Company of Canada, as collateral trustee (the "Collateral Trustee"). The Floating Rate Notes are subject to all applicable terms of the Indenture, and Holders are referred to the Indenture for a statement of them. To the extent any provision of this Floating Rate Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. Capitalized and certain other terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings set forth in the Indenture. The Floating Rate Notes are senior secured obligations of the Company.

On or after September 13, 2013 and prior to September 13, 2014, the Company may redeem the Floating Rate Notes, at its option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 102% of the aggregate principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Redemption Date.

A - 6

(8) Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Floating Rate Notes to be redeemed at its registered address. On and after the Redemption Date, unless the Company defaults in making the redemption payment, interest ceases to accrue on Floating Rate Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

(9) Offers to Purchase. The Indenture provides that upon the occurrence of a Change of Control or an Asset Sale or pursuant to an Excess Cash Offer, and subject to further limitations contained in the Indenture, the Company shall make an offer to purchase outstanding Floating Rate Notes in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture.

(10) Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Floating Rate Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of US$1.00 and integral multiples of US$1.00 in excess thereof. A Holder may transfer or exchange Floating Rate Notes in accordance with the Indenture.

The Registrar need not register the transfer of or exchange any Floating Rate Notes or portion of a Floating Rate Note selected for redemption, or register the transfer of or exchange any Floating Rate Notes for a period of 15 days before a mailing of notice of redemption.

(11) Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of this Floating Rate Note may be treated as the owner of this Floating Rate Note for all purposes.

(12) Unclaimed Money. If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent will pay the money back to the Company at its written request. After that, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company for payment as general creditors unless an "abandoned property" law designates another Person.

(13) Amendment, Supplement, Waiver, Etc. The Company, any Guarantors, the Trustee and the Collateral Trustee may, without the consent of the Holders of any outstanding Floating Rate Notes, amend, waive or supplement the Indenture or the Floating Rate Notes for certain specified purposes, including, among other things, curing ambiguities, defects or inconsistencies and making any change that does not materially and adversely affect the rights of any Holder. Other amendments and modifications of the Indenture or the Floating Rate Notes may be made by the Company, any Guarantors, the Trustee and the Collateral Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Floating Rate Notes, subject to certain exceptions requiring the consent of the Holders of the particular Floating Rate Notes to be affected or the consent of Holders of at least 75% or 66-23% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Floating Rate Notes.

A - 7

(14) Restrictive Covenants. The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional Debt, make payments in respect of their Capital Stock or certain Debt, make certain Investments, create or incur Liens, enter into transactions with Affiliates, enter into agreements restricting the ability of Restricted Subsidiaries to pay dividends and make distributions, and on the ability of the Company to merge or consolidate with any other Person or transfer all or substantially all of the Company's assets on a consolidated basis. Such limitations are subject to a number of important qualifications and exceptions.

(15) Successor Person. When a successor Person assumes all the obligations of its predecessor under the Floating Rate Notes and the Indenture and the transaction complies with the terms of Article IX of the Second Supplemental Indenture, the predecessor Person will be released from those obligations.

(16) Defaults and Remedies. Events of Default are set forth in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations in the Indenture, if an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in clause (vi) of Section 7.01 of the Base Indenture with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee, by written notice to the Company, or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Floating Rate Notes, by written notice to the Trustee and the Company, may declare to be immediately due and payable the entire principal amount of all the Floating Rate Notes then Outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of acceleration and the same shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in clause (vi) of Section 7.01 of the Base Indenture occurs, the principal amount of and interest on all Floating Rate Notes shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Floating Rate Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require indemnity satisfactory to it before it enforces the Indenture or the Floating Rate Notes. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then Outstanding Floating Rate Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing default (except a default in payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interests.

(17) Trustee Dealings with Company. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not Trustee.

(18) No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, partner, incorporator or shareholder of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any Guarantor or any corporate successor(s) thereto shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Floating rate Notes, the Guarantees, the Indenture or any of the Collateral Documents or for a claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of Floating Rate Notes by accepting a Floating Rate Note waives and releases such persons from all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Floating Rate Notes.

A - 8

(19) Discharge. The Company's obligations pursuant to the Indenture will be discharged with respect to the Floating Rate Notes, except for obligations pursuant to certain sections thereof, subject to the terms of the Indenture, upon the payment of all of the Floating Rate Notes or upon the irrevocable deposit with the Trustee of money in U.S. Dollars or U.S. Government Securities sufficient to pay when due principal of and interest on such Floating Rate Notes to maturity or redemption, as the case may be.

(20) Guarantees. The Floating Rate Notes are entitled to the benefits of certain Guarantees made for the benefit of the Holders. Reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and obligations thereunder of the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders.

(23) Governing Law. THIS FLOATING RATE NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH OF THE COMPANY AND THE GUARANTORS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS NOTE.
