The Loan Party Agent, Lenders and Agent shall negotiate in good faith to amend Section 10.3 to preserve the original intent in light of such change in GAAP; provided, that until so amended Section 10.3 shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein.

In addition, other terms relating to Collateral used and not otherwise defined herein that are defined in the UCC and/or the PPSA shall have the meanings set forth in the UCC and/or the PPSA, as applicable

1.4 Certain Matters of Construction. The terms “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section, paragraph or subdivision. Any pronoun used shall be deemed to cover all genders. In the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, “from” means “from and including,” and “to” and “until” each mean “to but excluding.” The terms “including” and “include” shall mean “including, without limitation” and, for purposes of each Loan Document, the parties agree that the rule of ejusdem generis shall not be applicable to limit any provision. Section titles appear as a matter of convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of any Loan Document. All references to (a) laws or statutes include, unless otherwise specified, all related rules, regulations, interpretations, amendments and successor provisions; (b) any document, instrument or agreement includes any amendments, waivers and other modifications, extensions or renewals (to the extent not prohibited by the Loan Documents); (c) any section mean, unless the context otherwise requires, a section of this Agreement; (d) any exhibits or schedules mean, unless the context otherwise requires, exhibits and schedules attached hereto, which are hereby incorporated by reference; (e) any Person includes its successors and assigns; (f) time of day means time of day at Agent’s notice address under Section 14.3.1; or (g) except as expressly provided, discretion of Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender mean the sole and absolute discretion of such Person.

fundings of Loans, issuances of Letters of Credit and payments of Obligations shall be in Dollars (except as otherwise expressly provided herein) and, unless the context otherwise requires, all determinations (including calculations of Borrowing Base and financial covenants) made from time to time under the Loan Documents shall be made in light of the circumstances existing at such time. Borrowing Base calculations shall be consistent with historical methods of valuation and calculation, and otherwise satisfactory to Agent (and not necessarily calculated in accordance with GAAP). The Loan Parties shall have the burden of establishing any alleged negligence, misconduct or lack of good faith by Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender under any Loan Documents. No provision of any Loan Documents shall be construed against any party by reason of such party having, or being deemed to have, drafted the provision. Whenever the phrase “to the best of a Loan Parties’ knowledge” or words of similar import are used in any Loan Documents, it means actual knowledge of a Senior Officer of a Loan Party. Whenever any payment, certificate, notice or other delivery shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, the due date for such payment or delivery shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of any LIBOR Loan to be made in the next calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

1.5 Interpretation (Quebec). For purposes of any Collateral located in the Province of Quebec or charged by any deed of hypothec (or any other Loan Document) and for all other purposes pursuant to which the interpretation or construction of a Loan Document may be subject to the laws of the Province of Quebec or a court or tribunal exercising jurisdiction in the Province of Québec, (q) “personal property” shall be deemed to include “movable property”, (r) “real property” shall be deemed to include “immovable property”, (s) “tangible property” shall be deemed to include “corporeal property”, (t) “intangible property” shall be deemed to include “incorporeal property”, (u) “security interest” and “mortgage” shall be deemed to include a “hypothec”, (v) all references to filing, registering or recording under the UCC or the PPSA shall be deemed to include publication under the Civil Code of Québec, (w) all references to “perfection” of or “perfected” Liens shall be deemed to include a reference to the “opposability” of such Liens to third parties, (x) any “right of offset”, “right of setoff” or similar expression shall be deemed to include a “right of compensation”, (y) “goods” shall be deemed to include “corporeal movable property” other than chattel paper, documents of title, instruments, money and securities, and (z) an “agent” shall be deemed to include a “mandatory”.

SECTION 2. CREDIT FACILITIES

2.1 Commitment.

2.1.1 Revolver Loans.

(a) U.S. Revolver Loans to the U.S. Borrower; European Revolver Loans to the European Borrower. Each U.S. Lender agrees, severally and not jointly with the other U.S. Lenders, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, to make (i) U.S. Revolver Loans to the U.S. Borrower and (ii) so long as the applicable Specified Transaction Conditions have been satisfied with respect thereto, European Revolver Loans to the European Borrower, in each case, on any Business Day during the period from the Restatement Date to the U.S./European Revolver Commitment Termination Date, not to exceed in aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time such U.S. Lender’s U.S./European Revolver Commitment at

such time, which U.S./European Revolver Loans may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that such U.S. Lenders shall have no obligation to the U.S. Borrower or the European Borrower whatsoever to honor any request for a U.S. Revolver Loan or a European Revolver Loan, as applicable, (x) on or after the U.S./European Revolver Commitment Termination Date, (y) if the amount of the proposed U.S. Revolver Loan exceeds U.S. Availability on the proposed funding date for such U.S. Revolver Loan or (z) if the amount of the proposed European Revolver Loan exceeds the Maximum European Subline Amount on the proposed funding date for such European Revolver Loan. Each Borrowing of U.S./European Revolver Loans shall be funded by U.S. Lenders on a Pro Rata basis. The U.S./European Revolver Loans shall bear interest as set forth in Section 3.1. Each U.S. Revolver Loan shall, at the option of the U.S. Borrower, be made or continued as, or converted into, part of one or more Borrowings that, unless specifically provided herein, shall consist entirely of U.S. Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans. Each European Revolver Loan shall consist entirely of LIBOR Loans. The U.S./European Revolver Loans shall be repaid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and shall be secured by all of the U.S./European Facility Collateral. Each U.S. Revolver Loan shall be funded in Dollars or, at the option of the U.S. Borrower, Euros and repaid in the same currency as the underlying U.S. Revolver Loan was made; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of U.S. Revolver Loans that may be denominated in Euros shall not exceed the Dollar Equivalent of $50,000,000 less the Dollar Equivalent of the outstanding U.S. LC Obligations (excluding amounts specified in clause (c) of such definition) denominated in Euros and Sterling; provided, further, however, U.S. Revolver Loans denominated in Euros shall consist entirely of LIBOR Loans. Each European Revolver Loan shall be funded in Euros and repaid in Euros.

(b) Canadian Revolver Loans to Canadian Borrower. Each Canadian Lender agrees, severally and not jointly with the other Canadian Lenders, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, to make Canadian Revolver Loans to the Canadian Borrower on any Business Day during the period from the Restatement Date to the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date, not to exceed in aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time, such Canadian Lender’s Canadian Revolver Commitment at such time, which Canadian Revolver Loans may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that Canadian Lenders shall have no obligation to the Canadian Borrower whatsoever to honor any request for a Canadian Revolver Loan on or after the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date or if the amount of the proposed Canadian Revolver Loan exceeds Canadian Availability on the proposed funding date for such Canadian Revolver Loan. Each Borrowing of Canadian Revolver Loans shall be funded by Canadian Lenders on a Pro Rata basis. The Canadian Revolver Loans shall bear interest as set forth in Section 3.1. Each Canadian Revolver Loan shall, at the option of the Canadian Borrower, be made or continued as, or converted into, part of one or more Borrowings that, unless specifically provided herein, shall consist entirely of Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Canadian BA Rate Loans if denominated in Canadian Dollars, or Canadian Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans if denominated in Dollars. The Canadian Revolver Loans shall be repaid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and shall be secured by all of the Canadian Facility Collateral. Each Canadian Revolver Loan shall be funded in Canadian Dollars or, at the option of the Canadian Borrower, Dollars and repaid in the same currency as the underlying Canadian Revolver Loan was made.

(c) Cap on Total Revolver Exposure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.1.1, in no event shall any Borrower be entitled to receive a Revolver Loan if at the time of the proposed funding of such Loan (and after giving effect thereto and the application of the proceeds thereof and all pending requests for Loans), the Total Revolver Exposure exceeds (or would exceed) the lesser of the Maximum Facility Amount and the Commitments.

2.1.2 Revolver Notes. The Revolver Loans made by each Lender and interest accruing thereon shall be evidenced by the records of Agent and such Lender. At the request of any Lender, the Borrower to which such Lender has extended Commitments shall deliver a Revolver Note to such Lender in the amount of such Lender’s aggregate U.S./European or Canadian Revolver Commitment, as applicable.

2.1.3 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of Revolver Loans shall be used by the Borrowers solely (a) to pay fees and expenses relating to the Transactions and the Equity Transactions, (b) to issue standby or commercial letters of credit, and (c) to finance ongoing working capital needs and other lawful general corporate purposes of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries.

2.1.4 Reduction or Termination of Commitments; Increase of Commitments.

(a) The Canadian Revolver Commitments shall terminate on the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date and the U.S./European Revolver Commitments shall terminate on the U.S./European Revolver Commitment Termination Date, in each case, unless sooner terminated in accordance with this Agreement. Upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to Agent from Loan Party Agent, (i) the U.S. Borrower may, at its option, terminate the U.S./European Revolver Commitments and this credit facility and/or (ii) the Canadian Borrower may, at its option, terminate the Canadian Revolver Commitment, in each case, without premium or penalty (other than funding losses payable pursuant to Section 3.9). If the U.S. Borrower elects to reduce to zero (0) or terminate the U.S./European Revolver Commitments pursuant to the previous sentence, the Canadian Revolver Commitments shall automatically terminate concurrently with the termination of the U.S./European Revolver Commitments. Any notice of termination given by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.1.4 shall be irrevocable; provided, however, that notice may be contingent on the occurrence of a refinancing or the consummation of a sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of assets and may be revoked or the termination date deferred if the refinancing or sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of assets does not occur. On the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date, the Canadian Borrower (and other Canadian Facility Loan Parties, if applicable) shall make Full Payment of all Canadian Facility Obligations. On the U.S./European Revolver Commitment Termination Date, the U.S. Borrower (and other U.S. Facility Loan Parties, if applicable) shall make Full Payment of all U.S. Facility Obligations. On the U.S./European Revolver Commitment Termination Date, the European Borrower shall make Full Payment of all European Facility Obligations.

(b) So long as (i) no Default or Event of Default then exists or would result therefrom, (ii) no U.S./European Overadvance or Canadian Overadvance then exists or would result therefrom, and (iii) after giving effect thereto, U.S. Availability would exceed $10,000,000, Loan Party Agent may permanently and irrevocably reduce the Maximum Facility Amount by giving Agent at least three (3) Business Days’ prior irrevocable written notice thereof from a Senior Officer of Loan Party Agent, which notice shall (1) specify the date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of such reduction (which shall be in a minimum amount of

$5,000,000 and increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof), (2) specify the allocation of such reduction to, and the corresponding reductions of, each of the Maximum Canadian Facility Amount and/or the Maximum U.S./European Facility Amount (and the respective Canadian Revolver Commitments and the U.S./European Revolver Commitments in respect thereof, each of which shall be allocated to Lenders among the Borrowers on a Pro Rata basis at the time of such reduction) and (3) certify the satisfaction of the conditions specified in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) and this clause (iii) (including calculations thereof in reasonable detail) as of the effective date of any such proposed reduction; provided, however, that such notice may be contingent on the occurrence of a refinancing or incurrence of Debt permitted under Section 10.2.1 or consummation of a sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of assets and may be revoked or the reduction date deferred if the refinancing, incurrence or sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of assets does not occur. Without limiting the foregoing, (A) each reduction in the Maximum Canadian Facility Amount and the Canadian Revolver Commitments shall in no event exceed Canadian Availability and be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000, and (B) each reduction in the Maximum U.S./European Facility Amount and the U.S./European Revolver Commitments shall in no event exceed U.S. Availability and be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000.

(c) Provided no Default or Event of Default then exists or would result therefrom, upon notice to Agent (which shall promptly notify all Applicable Lenders), the Loan Party Agent may from time to time, request an increase in the U.S./European Revolver Commitments or the Canadian Revolver Commitments, as applicable, by an amount not exceeding $75,000,000 in the aggregate (resulting in maximum total Facility Commitments of $225,000,000) during the term of this Agreement; provided that (i) any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and (ii) the Loan Party Agent may make a maximum of two (2) such requests in the aggregate (resulting in a maximum of two (2) total increases) during the term of this Agreement. At the time of sending such notice, a requesting Borrower (in consultation with Agent) shall specify the time period within which the Applicable Lenders are requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten (10) Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to such Lenders).

(d) Each Applicable Lender shall notify Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Facility Commitment to the Loan Party Agent and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Pro Rata Share of such requested increase. Any Applicable Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Facility Commitment.

(e) Agent shall notify the Loan Party Agent and each Applicable Lender of such Applicable Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase, and subject to the approval of Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank (which approvals, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Loan Party Agent may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent and its counsel.

(f) If the U.S./European Revolver Commitments or the Canadian Revolver Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, Agent and the Loan Party Agent shall determine the effective date (the “Facility Commitment Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. Agent shall promptly notify the Loan Party Agent and the Applicable Lenders (and any additional Lender added pursuant to Section 2.1.4(e)) of the final allocation of such increase and the Facility Commitment Increase Effective Date.

(g) As a condition precedent to such increase, the Loan Party Agent shall deliver to Agent a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Facility Commitment Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a Senior Officer of such Loan Party (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) in the case of the Borrowers, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Section 9 and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (or, with respect to representations and warranties qualified by materiality, in all respects) on and as of the Facility Commitment Increase Effective Date (except for representations and warranties that expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects (or, with respect to representations and warranties qualified by materiality, in all respects) as of such earlier date), and except that for purposes of this Section 2.1.4, the representations and warranties contained in Section 9.1.8(a) shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) of Section 10.1.2, and (B) no Default exists. The requesting Borrower shall prepay any Revolving Loans of such Borrower outstanding on the Facility Commitment Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.9) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving Loans of such Borrower ratable with any revised Pro Rata Share arising from any nonratable increase in the Facility Commitments under this Section.

(h) No consent shall be required of any Lender not increasing its Facility Commitments in connection with an increase of the Facility Commitments in accordance with this Section 2.1.4, and the Borrowers, Agent and each Lender shall enter into such amendments to the Loan Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Loan Party Agent and Agent to make conforming changes consistent with this Section 2.1.4.

(g) This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 14.1 to the contrary.

2.1.5 Overadvances.

(a) If at any time (a) the Canadian Revolver Exposure exceeds the Canadian Borrowing Base (a “Canadian Overadvance”) or (b) the sum of the U.S. Revolver Exposure plus the European Revolver Exposure exceeds the U.S. Borrowing Base (the U.S. Borrowing Base calculated solely for this purpose without subtraction of the European Revolver Exposure) (a “U.S./European Overadvance”), the excess amount shall, subject to Section 5.2 and this Section 2.1.5, be immediately due and payable by the Canadian Borrower or the U.S. Borrower, as applicable on demand by Agent. Agent may require the Applicable Lenders to honor requests for Overadvance Loans and to forbear from requiring the applicable Borrower to cure an Overadvance, (a) when no Event of Default is known to Agent, as long as (i) the Overadvance does not continue for more than thirty (30) consecutive days (and no Overadvance may exist for at least five (5) consecutive days thereafter before further Overadvance Loans are required), and (ii) the Overadvance is not known by Agent to exceed $2,500,000, with respect to the Canadian Borrower, or $5,000,000 in the aggregate, with respect to the U.S. Borrower and the European Borrower; and (b) regardless of whether an Event of Default exists, if Agent discovers an Overadvance not previously known by it to exist, as long as from the date of such discovery the Overadvance (i) is not increased by more than $2,500,000, with respect to the

Canadian Borrower or $5,000,000 in the aggregate, with respect to the U.S. Borrower and the European Borrower, and (ii) does not continue for more than thirty (30) consecutive days. In no event shall Overadvance Loans be required that would cause (i) the Canadian Revolver Exposure to exceed the aggregate Canadian Revolver Commitments or (ii) the U.S. Revolver Exposure plus the European Revolver Exposure to exceed the aggregate U.S./European Revolver Commitments. All Canadian Overadvance Loans shall constitute Canadian Facility Obligations secured by the Canadian Facility Collateral and shall be entitled to all benefits of the Loan Documents. All U.S./European Overadvance Loans shall constitute U.S./European Facility Obligations secured by the U.S./European Facility Collateral and shall be entitled to all benefits of the Loan Documents. No Overadvance shall result in an Event of Default due to a Borrower’s failure to comply with Section 2.1.1 for so long as such Overadvance remains outstanding in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, but solely with respect to the amount of such Overadvance. In no event shall any Borrower or other Loan Party be deemed a beneficiary of this Section nor authorized to enforce any of its terms. Agent agrees to use its commercially reasonable best efforts to promptly notify the Lenders of the issuance of an Overadvance Loan; provided, that Agent shall have no liability for any failure to provide any such notice.

2.1.6 Protective Advances. Agent shall be authorized, in its discretion, at any time that any conditions in Section 6 are not satisfied, to make U.S. Base Rate Loans and Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as applicable (each a “Protective Advance”) (a) up to an aggregate amount of $2,500,000, with respect to the Canadian Borrower, or $5,000,000, with respect to the U.S. Borrower, outstanding at any time, if Agent deems such Loans necessary or desirable to preserve or protect Collateral, or to enhance the collectability or repayment of Obligations; or (b) to pay any other amounts chargeable to the Loan Parties under any Loan Documents, including costs, fees and expenses. Each Applicable Lender shall participate in each Protective Advance on a Pro Rata basis. In no event shall Protective Advances be required that would cause (x) the outstanding U.S./European Revolver Loans and U.S./European LC Obligations to exceed the aggregate U.S./European Commitments or (y) the outstanding Canadian Revolver Loans and Canadian LC Obligations to exceed the aggregate Canadian Commitments. Required Facility Lenders may at any time revoke Agent’s authority to make further Protective Advances to the applicable Borrower by written notice to Agent. Absent such revocation, Agent’s determination that funding of a Protective Advance is appropriate shall be conclusive. All Protective Advances made by Agent with respect to U.S. Facility Loan Parties shall be U.S. Facility Obligations, secured by the U.S./European Facility Collateral and shall be treated for all purposes as Extraordinary Expenses and all Protective Advances made by Agent with respect to Canadian Facility Loan Parties shall be Canadian Facility Obligations, secured by the Canadian Facility Collateral and shall be treated for all purposes as Extraordinary Expenses. Agent agrees to use its commercially reasonable best efforts to promptly notify the Lenders of the extension of a Protective Advance; provided, that Agent shall have no liability for any failure to provide any such notice.

2.2 U.S. and European Letter of Credit Facility.

2.2.1 Issuance of Letters of Credit. U.S. Issuing Bank agrees to issue Letters of Credit for the account of (x) the U.S. Borrower (“U.S. Letters of Credit”) and (y) so long as the applicable Specified Transaction Conditions have been satisfied with respect thereto, the European Borrower (“European Letters of Credit”) from time to time until fifteen (15) days prior to the Facility Termination Date (or until the U.S./European Revolver Commitment Termination Date, if earlier), on the terms set forth herein, including the following:

(a) Each of the U.S. Borrower and European Borrower acknowledge that U.S. Issuing Bank’s willingness to issue any U.S. Letter of Credit or European Letter of Credit is conditioned upon U.S. Issuing Bank’s receipt of an LC Application with respect to the requested U.S. Letter of Credit or European Letter of Credit, as applicable, as well as such other instruments and agreements as U.S. Issuing Bank may customarily require for issuance of a letter of credit of similar type and amount. U.S. Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue any U.S. Letter of Credit or European Letter of Credit unless (i) U.S. Issuing Bank receives an LC Request and LC Application at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance; (ii) each LC Condition is satisfied; and (iii) if a Defaulting Lender that is a U.S. Lender exists, such Defaulting Lender or the U.S. Borrower or European Borrower, as applicable, have entered into arrangements satisfactory to Agent and U.S. Issuing Bank to eliminate any Fronting Exposure associated with such Lender (it being understood that Cash Collateralization of a Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata share of the requested U.S. Letter of Credit or European Letter of Credit, as applicable, is satisfactory to Agent and U.S. Issuing Bank). If, in sufficient time to act, U.S. Issuing Bank receives written notice from the Required Facility Lenders that a LC Condition has not been satisfied, U.S. Issuing Bank shall not issue the requested U.S. Letter of Credit or European Letter of Credit, as applicable. Prior to receipt of any such notice, U.S. Issuing Bank shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any failure of LC Conditions.

(b) Letters of Credit may be requested by the U.S. Borrower and the European Borrower to support obligations incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business, or as otherwise approved by Agent. The renewal or extension of any U.S. Letter of Credit or European Letter of Credit shall be treated as the issuance of a new U.S. Letter of Credit or European Letter of Credit, as applicable, except that delivery of a new LC Application may be required at the discretion of U.S. Issuing Bank.

(c) Each of the U.S. Borrower and the European Borrower assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuses by the beneficiary of any U.S. Letter of Credit or European Letter of Credit, as applicable. In connection with issuance of any U.S. Letter of Credit or European Letter of Credit, none of Agent, U.S. Issuing Bank or any U.S. Lender shall be responsible for the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods purported to be represented by any Documents; any differences or variation in the character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods from that expressed in any Documents; the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Documents or of any endorsements thereon; the time, place, manner or order in which shipment of goods is made; partial or incomplete shipment of, or failure to ship, any goods referred to in a U.S. Letter of Credit, European Letter of Credit or Documents; any deviation from instructions, delay, default or fraud by any shipper or other Person in connection with any goods, shipment or delivery; any breach of contract between a shipper or vendor and the U.S. Borrower or the European Borrower, as applicable; errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, telecopy, e-mail, telephone or otherwise; errors in interpretation of technical terms; the misapplication by a beneficiary of any U.S. Letter of Credit or European Letter of Credit, as applicable, or the proceeds thereof; or any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of U.S. Issuing Bank, Agent or any U.S. Lender, including any act or omission of a Governmental Authority. The rights and remedies of

U.S. Issuing Bank under the Loan Documents shall be cumulative. U.S. Issuing Bank shall be fully subrogated to the rights and remedies of each beneficiary whose claims against the U.S. Borrower and the European Borrower are discharged with proceeds of any U.S. Letter of Credit issued for the account of the U.S. Borrower or any European Letter of Credit issued for the account of the European Borrower, as applicable.

(d) In connection with its administration of and enforcement of rights or remedies under any Letters of Credit or LC Documents, U.S. Issuing Bank shall be entitled to act, and shall be fully protected in acting, upon any certification, documentation or communication in whatever form believed by U.S. Issuing Bank, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by a proper Person. U.S. Issuing Bank may consult with and employ legal counsel, accountants and other experts to advise it concerning its obligations, rights and remedies, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by such experts. U.S. Issuing Bank may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection with any matter relating to Letters of Credit or LC Documents, and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of agents and attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care.

(e) If the U.S. Borrower or the European Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit application, U.S. Issuing Bank may, in its discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, a “U.S./European Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such U.S./European Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit U.S. Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “U.S./European Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by U.S. Issuing Bank, the U.S. Borrower and the European Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once a U.S./European Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the U.S. Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) U.S. Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date at least 15 Business Days prior to the Facility Termination Date; provided, however, that U.S. Issuing Bank shall not permit any such extension if (A) U.S. Issuing Bank has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof, or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the U.S./European Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from Agent, any Lender or the U.S. Borrower or the European Borrower, as applicable, that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 6.2 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing U.S. Issuing Bank not to permit such extension.

(f) By their execution of this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that on the Restatement Date (without any further action by any Person), the Existing Letters of Credit as listed on Schedule 1(c) shall be deemed to have been issued by U.S. Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the rights and obligations of U.S. Issuing Bank and the account party thereunder shall be subject to the terms hereof.

2.2.2 U.S. Letters of Credit and European Letters of Credit: Reimbursement and Participations.

(a) If U.S. Issuing Bank honors any request for payment under a U.S. Letter of Credit or European Letter of Credit, the U.S. Borrower or the European Borrower, as applicable, shall pay to U.S. Issuing Bank, on the same day (“U.S./European Reimbursement Date”), the amount paid by U.S. Issuing Bank under (i) such U.S. Letter of Credit, together with interest at the interest rate for U.S. Base Rate Loans or (ii) such European Letter of Credit, together with interest at the interest rate for LIBOR Revolver Loans, in each case, from the U.S./European Reimbursement Date until payment by the U.S. Borrower or the European Borrower, as applicable. The obligation of the U.S. Borrower and the European Borrower to reimburse U.S. Issuing Bank for any payment made under a U.S. Letter of Credit or European Letter of Credit, as applicable, shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any such U.S. Letter of Credit or European Letter of Credit or the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the U.S. Borrower, the European Borrower, or any other U.S. Domiciled Loan Parties may have at any time against the beneficiary, as applicable. Whether or not Loan Party Agent submits a Notice of Borrowing, (i) the U.S. Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of U.S. Base Rate Loans or (ii) the European Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of LIBOR Revolver Loans, in each case, in an amount necessary to pay all amounts due U.S. Issuing Bank on any U.S./European Reimbursement Date and each U.S. Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing whether or not the U.S./European Revolver Commitments have terminated, any U.S./European Overadvance exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied.

(b) Upon issuance of a U.S. Letter of Credit or a European Letter of Credit, or in the case of the Existing Letters of Credit, on the Restatement Date, each U.S. Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from U.S. Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided Pro Rata interest and participation in all U.S. LC Obligations or European LC Obligations, as applicable, (in each case, excluding amounts specified in clause (c) of such definition) relating to such U.S. Letter of Credit or European Letter of Credit. If U.S. Issuing Bank makes any payment under a U.S. Letter of Credit or a European Letter of Credit for the account of the U.S. Borrower or the European Borrower, as applicable, and the U.S. Borrower or the European Borrower, as applicable, does not reimburse such payment on the U.S./European Reimbursement Date, Agent shall promptly notify U.S. Lenders and each U.S. Lender shall promptly (within one (1) Business Day) and unconditionally pay to Agent, for the benefit of U.S. Issuing Bank, such U.S. Lender’s Pro Rata share of such payment. Upon request by a U.S. Lender, U.S. Issuing Bank shall furnish copies of any Letters of Credit and LC Documents in its possession at such time.

(c) The obligation of each U.S. Lender to make payments to Agent for the account of U.S. Issuing Bank in connection with U.S. Issuing Bank’s payment under a U.S. Letter of Credit or a European Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, not subject to any counterclaim, setoff, qualification or exception whatsoever, and shall be made in accordance with this Agreement under all circumstances, irrespective of any lack of validity or unenforceability of any Loan Documents; any draft, certificate or other document presented under a U.S. Letter of Credit or a European Letter of Credit having been determined to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or the existence of any setoff or defense that any Loan Party may have

with respect to any Obligations. U.S. Issuing Bank does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by the U.S. Borrower, the European Borrower or any other Person of any obligations under any LC Documents. U.S. Issuing Bank does not make to U.S. Lenders any express or implied warranty, representation or guarantee with respect to the U.S./European Facility Collateral, LC Documents, any U.S Facility Loan Party or the European Borrower. U.S. Issuing Bank shall not be responsible to any U.S. Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in, or for the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any LC Documents; the validity, genuineness, enforceability, collectability, value or sufficiency of any U.S./European Facility Collateral or the perfection of any Lien therein; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any U.S./European Facility Loan Party.

(d) No Issuing Bank Indemnitee shall be liable to any Loan Party or other Person for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with any U.S. Letter of Credit, European Letter of Credit or LC Document except as a result of U.S. Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. U.S. Issuing Bank may refrain from taking any action with respect to a U.S. Letter of Credit or European Letter of Credit until it receives written instructions from Required Facility Lenders of the U.S. Borrower or the European Borrower, as applicable.

2.2.3 Cash Collateral. If any U.S. LC Obligations or the European LC Obligations, whether or not then due or payable, shall for any reason be outstanding at any time (a) that an Event of Default exists, (b) that a U.S./European Overadvance exists, (c) after the U.S./European Revolver Commitment Termination Date, or (d) within twenty (20) Business Days prior to the Facility Termination Date, then the U.S. Borrower or the European Borrower, as applicable, shall, at U.S. Issuing Bank’s or Agent’s request, Cash Collateralize the stated amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued for the account of the U.S. Borrower or the European Borrower, as applicable, and pay to U.S. Issuing Bank the amount of all other U.S. LC Obligations or European LC Obligations, as applicable. The U.S. Borrower and the European Borrower shall, on demand by U.S. Issuing Bank or Agent from time to time, Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of any Defaulting Lender that is a U.S. Lender. If the U.S. Borrower or the European Borrower fails to provide any Cash Collateral as required hereunder, U.S. Lenders may (and shall upon direction of Agent) advance, as U.S. Revolver Loans or European Revolver Loans, as applicable, the amount of the Cash Collateral required (whether or not the U.S./European Revolver Commitments have terminated, any U.S./European Overadvance exists or is created thereby or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied). For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the European Borrower will not repay or Cash Collateralize any U.S. LC Obligations.

2.2.4 Resignation of U.S. Issuing Bank. U.S. Issuing Bank may resign at any time upon notice to Agent and Loan Party Agent. On and after the effective date of such resignation, U.S. Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue, amend, renew, extend or otherwise modify any U.S. Letter of Credit or European Letter of Credit, but shall continue to have all rights and other obligations of an U.S. Issuing Bank hereunder relating to any U.S. Letter of Credit and European Letter of Credit issued by it prior to such date. Agent shall promptly appoint a replacement U.S. Issuing Bank, which, as long as no Default or Event of Default exists, shall be reasonably acceptable to Loan Party Agent.

2.3 Canadian Letter of Credit Facility.

2.3.1 Issuance of Letters of Credit. Canadian Issuing Bank agrees to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Canadian Borrower (“Canadian Letters of Credit”) from time to time until fifteen (15) days prior to the Facility Termination Date (or until the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date, if earlier), on the terms set forth herein, including the following:

(a) The Canadian Borrower acknowledges that Canadian Issuing Bank’s willingness to issue any Canadian Letter of Credit is conditioned upon Canadian Issuing Bank’s receipt of an LC Application with respect to the requested Canadian Letter of Credit, as well as such other instruments and agreements as Canadian Issuing Bank may customarily require for issuance of a letter of credit of similar type and amount. Canadian Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue any Canadian Letter of Credit unless (i) Canadian Issuing Bank receives an LC Request and LC Application at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance; (ii) each LC Condition is satisfied; and (iii) if a Defaulting Lender that is a Canadian Lender exists, such Defaulting Lender or the Canadian Borrower have entered into arrangements satisfactory to Agent and Canadian Issuing Bank to eliminate any Fronting Exposure associated with such Lender (it being understood that Cash Collateralization of a Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata share of the requested Canadian Letter of Credit is satisfactory to Agent and Canadian Issuing Bank). If, in sufficient time to act, Canadian Issuing Bank receives written notice from Required Facility Lenders that a LC Condition has not been satisfied, Canadian Issuing Bank shall not issue the requested Canadian Letter of Credit. Prior to receipt of any such notice, Canadian Issuing Bank shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any failure of LC Conditions.

(b) Letters of Credit may be requested by Loan Party Agent for the account of Canadian Borrower to support obligations incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business, or as otherwise approved by Agent. The renewal or extension of any Canadian Letter of Credit shall be treated as the issuance of a new Canadian Letter of Credit, except that delivery of a new LC Application may be required at the discretion of Canadian Issuing Bank.

(c) The Canadian Borrower assumes all risks of the acts, omissions or misuses by the beneficiary of any Canadian Letter of Credit. In connection with issuance of any Canadian Letter of Credit, none of Agent, Canadian Issuing Bank or any Canadian Lender shall be responsible for the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods purported to be represented by any Documents; any differences or variation in the character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods from that expressed in any Documents; the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Documents or of any endorsements thereon; the time, place, manner or order in which shipment of goods is made; partial or incomplete shipment of, or failure to ship, any goods referred to in a Canadian Letter of Credit or Documents; any deviation from instructions, delay, default or fraud by any shipper or other Person in connection with any goods, shipment or delivery; any breach of contract between a shipper or vendor and the Canadian Borrower; errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, telecopy, e-mail, telephone or otherwise; errors in interpretation of technical terms; the misapplication by a beneficiary of any Canadian Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof; or any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Canadian Issuing Bank, Agent or any Canadian Lender, including any act or omission of a Governmental Authority. The rights and remedies of Canadian Issuing Bank under the Loan Documents shall be cumulative. Canadian Issuing Bank shall be fully subrogated to the rights and remedies of each beneficiary whose claims against the Canadian Borrower are discharged with proceeds of any Canadian Letter of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower.

(d) In connection with its administration of and enforcement of rights or remedies under any Letters of Credit or LC Documents, Canadian Issuing Bank shall be entitled to act, and shall be fully protected in acting, upon any certification, documentation or communication in whatever form believed by Canadian Issuing Bank, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by a proper Person. Canadian Issuing Bank may consult with and employ legal counsel, accountants and other experts to advise it concerning its obligations, rights and remedies, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by such experts. Canadian Issuing Bank may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection with any matter relating to Letters of Credit or LC Documents, and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of agents and attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care.

(e) If the Canadian Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit application, Canadian Issuing Bank may, in its discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, a “Canadian Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Canadian Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit Canadian Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Canadian Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by Canadian Issuing Bank, the Canadian Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once a Canadian Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Canadian Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) Canadian Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date at least 15 Business Days prior to the Facility Termination Date; provided, however, that Canadian Issuing Bank shall not permit any such extension if (A) Canadian Issuing Bank has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof, or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Canadian Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from Agent, any Lender or the Canadian Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 6.2 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing Canadian Issuing Bank not to permit such extension.

2.3.2 Canadian Letters of Credit: Reimbursement and Participations.

(a) If Canadian Issuing Bank honors any request for payment under a Canadian Letter of Credit, the Canadian Borrower shall pay to Canadian Issuing Bank, on the same day (“Canadian Reimbursement Date”), the amount paid by Canadian Issuing Bank under such Canadian Letter of Credit, together with interest at the interest rate for Canadian Base Rate Loans from the Canadian Reimbursement Date until payment by the Canadian Borrower. The obligation of the Canadian Borrower to reimburse Canadian Issuing Bank for any payment made under a Canadian Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any Canadian Letter of

Credit or the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the Canadian Borrower or the Canadian Domiciled Loan Parties may have at any time against the beneficiary. Whether or not Loan Party Agent submits a Notice of Borrowing, the Canadian Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Canadian Base Rate Loans in an amount necessary to pay all amounts due Canadian Issuing Bank on any Canadian Reimbursement Date and each Canadian Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing whether or not the Canadian Revolver Commitments have terminated, any Canadian Overadvance exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied.

(b) Upon issuance of a Canadian Letter of Credit, each Canadian Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from Canadian Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided Pro Rata interest and participation in all Canadian LC Obligations (excluding amounts specified in clause (c) of such definition) relating to such Canadian Letter of Credit. If Canadian Issuing Bank makes any payment under a Canadian Letter of Credit for the account of the Canadian Borrower and the Canadian Borrower does not reimburse such payment on the Canadian Reimbursement Date, Agent shall promptly notify Canadian Lenders and each Canadian Lender shall promptly (within one (1) Business Day) and unconditionally pay to Agent, for the benefit of Canadian Issuing Bank, such Canadian Lender’s Pro Rata share of such payment. Upon request by a Canadian Lender, Canadian Issuing Bank shall furnish copies of any Letters of Credit and LC Documents in its possession at such time.

(c) The obligation of each Canadian Lender to make payments to Agent for the account of Canadian Issuing Bank in connection with Canadian Issuing Bank’s payment under a Canadian Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, not subject to any counterclaim, setoff, qualification or exception whatsoever, and shall be made in accordance with this Agreement under all circumstances, irrespective of any lack of validity or unenforceability of any Loan Documents; any draft, certificate or other document presented under a Canadian Letter of Credit having been determined to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or the existence of any setoff or defense that any Loan Party may have with respect to any Obligations. Canadian Issuing Bank does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by the Canadian Borrower or any other Person of any obligations under any LC Documents. Canadian Issuing Bank does not make to Canadian Lenders any express or implied warranty, representation or guarantee with respect to the Canadian Facility Collateral, LC Documents or any Canadian Facility Loan Party. Canadian Issuing Bank shall not be responsible to any Canadian Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in, or for the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any LC Documents; the validity, genuineness, enforceability, collectability, value or sufficiency of any Canadian Facility Collateral or the perfection of any Lien therein; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Canadian Facility Loan Party.

(d) No Issuing Bank Indemnitee shall be liable to any Loan Party or other Person for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with any Canadian Letter of Credit or LC Documents except as a result of Canadian Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Canadian Issuing Bank may refrain from taking any action with respect to a Canadian Letter of Credit until it receives written instructions from Required Facility Lenders of the Canadian Borrower.

2.3.3 Cash Collateral. If any Canadian LC Obligations, whether or not then due or payable, shall for any reason be outstanding at any time (a) that an Event of Default exists, (b) that a Canadian Overadvance exists, (c) after the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date, or (d) within 20 Business Days prior to the Facility Termination Date, then the Canadian Borrower shall, at Canadian Issuing Bank’s or Agent’s request, Cash Collateralize the stated amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued for the account of Canadian Borrower and pay to Canadian Issuing Bank the amount of all other Canadian LC Obligations. The Canadian Borrower shall, on demand by Canadian Issuing Bank or Agent from time to time, Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of any Defaulting Lender that is a Canadian Lender. If the Canadian Borrower fails to provide any Cash Collateral as required hereunder, Canadian Lenders may (and shall upon direction of Agent) advance, as Canadian Revolver Loans, the amount of the Cash Collateral required (whether or not the Canadian Revolver Commitments have terminated, any Canadian Overadvance exists or is created thereby or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied).

2.3.4 Resignation of Canadian Issuing Bank. Canadian Issuing Bank may resign at any time upon notice to Agent and Loan Party Agent. On and after the effective date of such resignation, Canadian Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue, amend, renew, extend or otherwise modify any Canadian Letter of Credit, but shall continue to have all rights and other obligations of a Canadian Issuing Bank hereunder relating to any Canadian Letter of Credit issued by it prior to such date. Agent shall promptly appoint a replacement Canadian Issuing Bank, which, as long as no Default or Event of Default exists, shall be reasonably acceptable to Loan Party Agent.

SECTION 3. INTEREST, FEES AND CHARGES

3.1 Interest.

3.1.1 Rates and Payment of Interest.

(a) The Obligations (excluding Obligations of the type specified in clause (g) of such definition) shall bear interest (i) if a U.S. Base Rate Loan, at the U.S. Base Rate in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin; (ii) if a LIBOR Loan, at LIBOR for the applicable Interest Period, plus the Applicable Margin; (iii) if a Canadian Prime Rate Loan, at the Canadian Prime Rate in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin, (iv) if a Canadian Base Rate Loan, at the Canadian Base Rate in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin, (v) if a Canadian BA Rate Loan, at the Canadian BA Rate for the applicable Interest Period, plus the Applicable Margin, (vi) if any other U.S. Facility Obligation that is then due and payable (including, to the extent permitted by law, interest not paid when due), at the U.S. Base Rate in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin for U.S. Base Rate Loans; (vii) if any other European Facility Obligation that is then due and payable (including, to the extent permitted by law, interest not paid when due), at LIBOR in effect at such time, plus the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Revoler Loans; and (viii) if any other Canadian Facility Obligation that is then due and payable (including, to the extent permitted by law, interest not paid when due), at the Canadian Prime Rate in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin for Canadian Prime Rate Loans. Interest shall accrue from the date the Loan is advanced or the Obligation is incurred or payable, until paid by the applicable Borrower. If a Loan is repaid on the same day made, one (1) day’s interest shall accrue.

(b) Interest on the Revolver Loans shall be payable in the currency (i.e., Dollars, Canadian Dollars or Euros, as the case may be) of the underlying Revolver Loan.

(c) Overdue principal, interest and other amounts not paid when due shall bear interest at the Default Rate; provided, however, that during the continuation of any Event of Default, if Required Lenders in their discretion so elect, all Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate (whether before or after any judgment); provided further, however, that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 11.1(a) or 11.1(i), the Default Rate shall become immediately applicable to all Obligations without any election of the Required Lenders. Each Loan Party acknowledges that the cost and expense to Agent and Lenders due to an Event of Default are difficult to ascertain and that the Default Rate is a fair and reasonable estimate to compensate Agent and Lenders therefor.

(d) Interest accrued on the Loans shall be due and payable in arrears, (i) for any U.S. Base Rate Loan, Canadian Base Rate Loan or Canadian Prime Rate Loan, on the first (1st) day of each month; (ii) for any LIBOR Loan or Canadian BA Rate Loan, on the last day of its Interest Period and (iii) on any date of prepayment, with respect to the principal amount of Loans being prepaid. In addition, interest accrued on the Canadian Revolver Loans shall be due and payable in arrears on the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date and interest accrued on the U.S./European Revolver Loans shall be due and payable in arrears on the U.S./European Revolver Commitment Termination Date. Interest accrued on any other Obligations shall be due and payable as provided in the Loan Documents and, if no payment date is specified, shall be due and payable on demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest accrued at the Default Rate shall be due and payable on demand.

3.1.2 Application of LIBOR to Outstanding Loans.

(a) Each Borrower may on any Business Day, subject to delivery of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation and the other terms hereof, elect to convert any portion of the U.S. Base Rate Loans or the Canadian Base Rate Loans, as applicable to, or to continue any LIBOR Loan at the end of its Interest Period as, a LIBOR Loan. During the continuance of any Event of Default, Agent may (and shall at the direction of Required Facility Lenders of the applicable Borrower) declare that no Loan may be made, converted or continued as a LIBOR Loan.

(b) Whenever a Borrower shall desire to convert or continue Loans as LIBOR Loans, Loan Party Agent shall give Agent a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, no later than 11:00 a.m. at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested conversion or continuation date. Promptly after receiving any such notice, Agent shall notify each Applicable Lender thereof. Each Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall be irrevocable, and shall specify the amount of Loans to be converted or continued, the conversion or continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), and the duration of the Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be one (1) month if not specified). If, upon the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of any LIBOR Loans, Loan Party Agent shall have failed to deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation with respect thereto as required above, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Loans into U.S. Base Rate Loans (if owing by the U.S. Borrower) or Canadian Base Rate Loans (if owing by the Canadian Borrower).

3.1.3 Application of Canadian BA Rate to Outstanding Loans.

(a) The Canadian Borrower may on any Business Day, subject to delivery of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation and the other terms hereof, elect to convert any portion of the Canadian Prime Rate Loans, or to continue any Canadian BA Rate Loan at the end of its Interest Period as a Canadian BA Rate Loan; provided, however that such Canadian BA Rate Loans may only be so converted at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto. During the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, Agent may (and shall at the direction of Required Facility Lenders of the Canadian Borrower) declare that no Loan may be made, converted or continued as a Canadian BA Rate Loan.

(b) Whenever the Canadian Borrower desires to convert or continue Loans as Canadian BA Rate Loans, Loan Party Agent shall give Agent a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, no later than 11:00 a.m. at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested conversion or continuation date. Promptly after receiving any such notice, Agent shall notify each Canadian Lender thereof. Each Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall be irrevocable, and shall specify the amount of Loans to be converted or continued, the conversion or continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), and the duration of the Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be one (1) month if not specified). If, upon the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of any Canadian BA Rate Loans, Loan Party Agent shall have failed to deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation with respect thereto as required above, the Canadian Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Loans into Canadian Prime Rate Loans.

3.1.4 Interest Periods. In connection with the making, conversion or continuation of any LIBOR Loans or Canadian BA Rate Loans, Loan Party Agent, on behalf of the applicable Borrower, shall select an interest period to apply (the “Interest Period”), which interest period shall be thirty (30), sixty (60) or ninety (90) days; provided, however, that:

(a) the Interest Period shall commence on the date the Loan is made or continued as, or converted into, a LIBOR Loan or Canadian BA Rate Loan, and shall expire on the numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at its end;

(b) if any Interest Period commences on a day for which there is no corresponding day in the calendar month at its end or if such corresponding day falls after the last Business Day of such month, then the Interest Period shall expire on the last Business Day of such month;

(c) if any Interest Period would expire on a day that is not a Business Day, the period shall expire on the next Business Day; and

(d) no Interest Period shall extend beyond the Facility Termination Date (or, in the case of any Loan owing by the Canadian Borrower, the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date, if earlier).

3.1.5 Interest Rate Not Ascertainable. If Agent shall determine that on any date for determining LIBOR, due to any circumstance affecting the London interbank market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining such rate on the basis provided herein, then Agent shall immediately notify Borrower of such determination. Until Agent notifies Borrower that such circumstance no longer exists, the obligation of Lenders to make LIBOR Loans shall be suspended, and no further Loans may be converted into or continued as LIBOR Loans.

3.2 Fees.

3.2.1 Unused Line Fee.

(a) The Canadian Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of Canadian Lenders, a fee equal to the Canadian Unused Line Fee Rate times the average daily amount by which the Canadian Revolver Commitments exceed the Canadian Revolver Exposure during any month. Such fee shall be payable in arrears, on the first (1st) day of each month and on the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date.

(b) The U.S. Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of U.S. Lenders, an aggregate fee equal to the U.S./European Unused Line Fee Rate times the average daily amount by which the U.S./European Revolver Commitments exceed the sum of (i) the U.S. Revolver Exposure plus (ii) the European Revolver Exposure during any month. Such fee shall be payable in arrears, on the first (1st) day of each month and on the U.S./European Revolver Commitment Termination Date.

3.2.2 U.S. LC Facility Fees. The U.S. Borrower shall pay (a) to Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of U.S. Lenders, a fee equal to the per annum rate of the Applicable Margin in effect for LIBOR Loans times the average daily outstanding amount of U.S. Letters of Credit, which fee shall be payable monthly in arrears, on the first (1st) day of each month; (b) to the applicable U.S. Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee equal to .125% per annum on the outstanding amount of each U.S. Letter of Credit issued by such U.S. Issuing Bank, which fee shall be payable monthly in arrears, on the first (1st) day of each month; and (c) to the applicable U.S. Issuing Bank, for its own account, all customary charges associated with the issuance, amending, negotiating, payment, processing, transfer and administration of U.S. Letters of Credit, which charges shall be paid as and when incurred; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, all amounts payable pursuant to this clause (c) with respect to the Existing Letters of Credit shall be determined in accordance with the applicable documentation thereto. During an Event of Default, if the Required Lenders so elect (pursuant to Section 3.1.1(c)) the fee payable under clause (a) shall be increased by 2% per annum.

3.2.3 European LC Facility Fees. The European Borrower shall pay (a) to Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of U.S. Lenders, a fee equal to the per annum rate of the Applicable Margin in effect for LIBOR Loans times the average daily outstanding amount of European Letters of Credit, which fee shall be payable monthly in arrears, on the first (1st) day of each month; (b) to the applicable U.S. Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee equal to .125% per annum on the outstanding amount of each European Letter of Credit issued by such U.S. Issuing Bank, which fee shall be payable monthly in arrears, on the first (1st) day of each month; and (c) to the applicable U.S. Issuing Bank, for its own account, all customary charges associated with the issuance, amending, negotiating, payment, processing, transfer and administration of U.S. Letters of Credit, which charges shall be paid as and when incurred During an Event of Default, if the Required Lenders so elect (pursuant to Section 3.1.1(c)) the fee payable under clause (a) shall be increased by 2% per annum.

3.2.4 Canadian LC Facility Fees. The Canadian Borrower shall pay (a) to Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of Canadian Lenders, a fee equal to the per annum rate of the Applicable Margin in effect for LIBOR Loans times the average daily outstanding amount of Canadian Letters of Credit, which fee shall be payable monthly in arrears, on the first (1st) day of each month; (b) to the applicable Canadian Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee equal to .125% per annum on the outstanding amount of each Canadian Letter of Credit issued by such Canadian Issuing Bank, which fee shall be payable monthly in arrears, on the first (1st) day of each month; and (c) to the applicable Canadian Issuing Bank, for its own account, all customary charges associated with the issuance, amending, negotiating, payment, processing, transfer and administration of Canadian Letters of Credit, which charges shall be paid as and when incurred.

3.2.5 Other Fees. The Borrowers shall pay such other fees as described in the Agent Fee Letter and the Joint Fee Letter.

3.3 Computation of Interest, Fees, Yield Protection. All interest, as well as fees and other charges calculated on a per annum basis, shall be computed for the actual days elapsed, based on a year of three hundred sixty (360) days, or, in the case of interest based on the Canadian Prime Rate or Canadian BA Rate, on the basis of a three hundred sixty five (365) day year. Each determination by Agent of any interest, fees or interest rate hereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. All fees shall be fully earned when due and shall not be subject to rebate, refund or proration. All fees payable under Section 3.2 are compensation for services and are not, and shall not be deemed to be, interest or any other charge for the use, forbearance or detention of money. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail amounts payable by any Borrower under Section 3.4, 3.7, 3.9, 5.8.2, 5.8.3 or 10.1.1(b), submitted to Loan Party Agent by Agent or the affected Lender or affected Issuing Bank, as applicable, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the applicable Borrower shall pay such amounts to the appropriate party within ten (10) days following receipt of the certificate. For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest to which any rate calculated on the basis of a period of time different from the actual number of days in the year (three hundred sixty (360) days, for example) is equivalent is the stated rate multiplied by the actual number of days in the year (three hundred sixty five (365) or three hundred sixty six (366), as applicable) and divided by the number of days in the shorter period (three hundred sixty (360) days, in the example), and the parties hereto acknowledge that there is a material distinction between the nominal and effective rates of interest and that they are capable of making the calculations necessary to compare such rates and that the calculations herein are to be made using the nominal rate method and not on any basis that gives effect to the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest.

3.4 Reimbursement Obligations. Each Borrower shall reimburse Agent for all Extraordinary Expenses incurred by Agent in reference to such Borrower or its related Loan Party Group Obligations or Collateral of its related Loan Party Group. In addition to such Extraordinary Expenses, each Borrower shall also reimburse Agent for all invoiced out-of-pocket legal, accounting, appraisal, consulting, and other fees, costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with (a) negotiation and preparation of any Loan Documents, including any amendment or other modification thereof; (b) administration of and actions relating to any Collateral for its Obligations, Loan Documents and transactions contemplated thereby, including any actions taken to perfect or maintain priority of Agent’s Liens on any such Collateral, to

maintain any insurance required hereunder or to verify such Collateral; and (c) each inspection, audit or appraisal with respect to any Loan Party within such Borrower’s related Loan Party Group or Collateral securing such Loan Party Group’s Obligations, whether prepared by Agent’s personnel or a third party (subject to Section 10.1.1(b)). If, for any reason (including inaccurate reporting on financial statements or a Compliance Certificate), it is determined that a higher Applicable Margin should have applied to a period than was actually applied, then the proper margin shall be applied retroactively and the Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of Lenders, an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest and fees that would have accrued using the proper margin and the amount actually paid. All amounts payable by the Borrowers under this Section 3.4 shall be due and payable in accordance with Section 3.3.

3.5 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Interest Period Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon LIBOR or the Canadian BA Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, or Canadian Dollars through bankers’ acceptances then, on notice thereof by such Lender to Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Interest Period Loans or to convert Floating Rate Loans to Interest Period Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon delivery of such notice, the affected Borrower shall prepay or, if applicable, convert all Interest Period Loans of such Lender to Floating Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Interest Period Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Interest Period Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the affected Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

3.6 Inability to Determine Rates. If Required Lenders notify Agent for any reason in connection with a request for a Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, an Interest Period Loan that (a) Dollar deposits or bankers’ acceptances are not being offered to, as regards LIBOR, banks in the London interbank Eurodollar market or, as regards Canadian BA Rate, Persons in Canada, for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining LIBOR or the Canadian BA Rate for the requested Interest Period, or (c) LIBOR or the Canadian BA Rate for the requested Interest Period does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, then Agent will promptly so notify Loan Party Agent and each Applicable Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Applicable Lenders to make or maintain affected Interest Period Loans, shall be suspended until Agent (upon instruction by Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, Loan Party Agent may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of an Interest Period Loan or, failing that, will be deemed to have submitted a request for a Floating Rate Loan.

3.7 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.

3.7.1 Change in Law. If any Change in Law shall:

(a) impose modify or deem applicable any reserve, liquidity, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in LIBOR or the Canadian BA Rate) or any Issuing Bank;

(b) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) with respect to or on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(c) impose on any Lender, any Issuing Bank or interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting any Loan, Loan Document, Letter of Credit, participation in LC Obligations, or Commitment;

and the result thereof shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan or Commitment, or to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, the Borrower to which such Lenders or such Issuing Bank has a Commitment shall pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered, in each case, in accordance with Section 3.3.

3.7.2 Capital Adequacy. If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Issuing Bank or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s, such Issuing Bank’s or holding company’s capital as a consequence of this Agreement, or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or participations in LC Obligations, to a level below that which such Lender, such Issuing Bank or holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s, such Issuing Bank’s and holding company’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower to which such Lenders or such Issuing Bank has a Commitment will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it or its holding company for any such reduction suffered, in each case, in accordance with Section 3.3.

3.7.3 Compensation. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.7 shall not constitute a waiver of its right to demand such compensation, but a Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender to such Borrower or Issuing Bank to such Borrower for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank notifies Loan Party Agent of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine (9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

3.8 Mitigation. If any Lender gives a notice under Section 3.5 or requests compensation under Section 3.7, or if a Borrower is required to pay additional amounts or make indemnity payments with respect to a Lender under Section 5.8, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (a) would eliminate the need for such notice or reduce amounts payable or to be withheld in the future, as applicable; and (b) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender or unlawful. The affected Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses (including all Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes) incurred by any Lender that has issued a Commitment to such Borrower in connection with any such designation or assignment.

3.9 Funding Losses. If for any reason (other than default by a Lender) (a) any Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, an Interest Period Loan does not occur on the date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn), (b) any repayment or conversion of an Interest Period Loan occurs on a day other than the end of its Interest Period, (c) any Borrower fails to repay an Interest Period Loan when required hereunder, or (d) a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) is required to assign an Interest Period Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period pursuant to Section 13.4, then such Borrower shall pay to Agent its customary administrative charge and to each Lender all resulting losses and expenses, including loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from liquidation or redeployment of funds or from fees payable to terminate deposits of matching funds. All amounts payable by the Borrowers under this Section 3.9 shall be due and payable in accordance with Section 3.3. Lenders shall not be required to purchase Dollar deposits in any interbank offshore Dollar market to fund any LIBOR Loan, but this Section shall apply as if each Lender had purchased such deposits.

3.10 Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by Applicable Law (“maximum rate”). If Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the maximum rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Obligations of the Borrower to which such excess interest relates or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to such Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by Agent or a Lender exceeds the maximum rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest; (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.10, if any provision of any of the Loan Documents would obligate any Canadian Domiciled Loan Party to make any payment of interest with respect to the Canadian Facility Obligations in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by Applicable Law or would result in the receipt of interest with respect to the Canadian Facility Obligations at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rates shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in a receipt by the applicable recipient of interest with respect to the Canadian Facility Obligations at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to

the extent necessary, as follows: (i) first, by reducing the amount or rates of interest required to be paid by the Canadian Facility Loan Parties to the applicable recipient under the Loan Documents; and (ii) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid by the Canadian Facility Loan Parties to the applicable recipient which would constitute interest with respect to the Canadian Facility Obligations for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if the applicable recipient shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by that section of the Criminal Code (Canada), then Canadian Facility Loan Parties shall be entitled, by notice in writing to Agent, to obtain reimbursement from the applicable recipient in an amount equal to such excess, and pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by the applicable recipient to the applicable Canadian Facility Loan Party. Any amount or rate of interest with respect to the Canadian Facility Obligations referred to in this Section 3.10 shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term that any Canadian Revolver Loans to the Canadian Borrower remains outstanding on the assumption that any charges, fees or expenses that fall within the meaning of “interest” (as defined in the Criminal Code (Canada)) shall, if they relate to a specific period of time, be pro rated over that period of time and otherwise be pro rated over the period from the Restatement Date to the date of Full Payment of the Canadian Facility Obligations, and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by Agent shall be conclusive for the purposes of such determination.

SECTION 4. LOAN ADMINISTRATION

4.1 Manner of Borrowing and Funding Loans.

4.1.1 Notice of Borrowing.

(a) Whenever a Borrower desires funding of a Borrowing of Revolver Loans, Loan Party Agent shall give Agent a Notice of Borrowing. Such notice must be received by Agent (i) on the Business Day of the requested funding date, in the case of Floating Rate Loans to the U.S. Borrower, (ii) at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested funding date, in the case of Floating Rate Loans to the Canadian Borrower, (iii) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested funding date, in the case of LIBOR Loans, and (iv) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested funding date, in the case of Canadian BA Rate Loans. Notices received after 11:00 a.m. shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) the Borrower, and the amount of the Borrowing, (B) the requested funding date (which must be a Business Day), (C) whether the Borrowing is to be made as (x) a U.S. Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Revolver Loan, in the case of the U.S. Borrower, (y) a Canadian Base Rate Loan, LIBOR Revolver Loan, Canadian Prime Rate Loan or Canadian BA Rate Loan, in the case of the Canadian Borrower or (z) a LIBOR Revolver Loan, in the case of the European Borrower, (D) in the case of Interest Period Loans, the duration of the applicable Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be one month if not specified), (E) if such Borrowing is requested for the U.S. Borrower, whether such Loan is to be denominated in Dollars or Euros and (F) if such Borrowing is requested for the Canadian Borrower, whether such Loan is to be denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars.

(b) Unless payment is otherwise timely made by a Borrower, the becoming due of any amount required to be paid with respect to any of the Obligations of the Loan Party Group to which such Borrower belongs (whether principal, interest, fees or other charges, including Extraordinary Expenses, LC Obligations, Cash Collateral and Secured Bank Product Obligations) shall be deemed to be a request for Revolver Loans by such Borrower on the due date, in the amount of such Obligations and shall bear interest at the per annum rate applicable hereunder (i) to U.S. Base Rate Loans, in the case of such Obligations owing by any U.S. Facility Loan Party, (ii) to LIBOR Revolver Loans, in the case of such Obligations owing by the European Borrower or (iii) to Canadian Prime Rate Loans, in the case of such Obligations owing by a Canadian Domiciled Loan Party. The proceeds of such Revolver Loans shall be disbursed as direct payment of the relevant Obligation. In addition, Agent may, at its option, charge such Obligations of a Loan Party Group against any operating, investment or other account of a Loan Party within such Loan Party Group maintained with Agent or any of its Affiliates.

(c) If a Borrower establishes a controlled disbursement account with Bank of America or any branch or Affiliate of Bank of America, then the presentation for payment of any check or other item of payment drawn on such account at a time when there are insufficient funds to cover it shall be deemed to be a request for Revolver Loans by such Borrower on the date of such presentation, in the amount of the check and items presented for payment, and shall bear interest at the per annum rate applicable hereunder (i) to U.S. Base Rate Loans, in the case of insufficient funds owing by any U.S. Facility Loan Party, (ii) to LIBOR Revolver Loans, in the case of insufficient funds owing by the European Borrower or (iii) to Canadian Prime Rate Loans, in the case of insufficient funds owing by a Canadian Facility Loan Party. The proceeds of such Revolver Loans may be disbursed directly to the controlled disbursement account or other appropriate account.

4.1.2 Fundings by Lenders. Each Applicable Lender shall timely honor its Facility Commitment by funding its Pro Rata share of each Borrowing of Revolver Loans under such Facility Commitment that is properly requested hereunder; provided, however that, except as set forth in Section 2.1.5, no Lender shall be required to honor its Facility Commitment by funding its Pro Rata share of any Borrowing that would cause the U.S. Revolver Exposure to exceed the U.S. Borrowing Base, the European Revolver Exposure to exceed the Maximum European Subline Amount or the Canadian Revolver Exposure to exceed the Canadian Borrowing Base, as applicable, or, with respect to the European Borrower, if the applicable Specified Transaction Conditions have not been satisfied with respect thereto. Except for Borrowings to be made as Swingline Loans, Agent shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to notify the Applicable Lenders of each Notice of Borrowing (or deemed request for a Borrowing) by 12:00 noon on the proposed funding date for Floating Rate Loans or by 11:00 a.m. at least two (2) Business Days before any proposed funding of Interest Period Loans. Each Applicable Lender shall fund to Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the Borrowing to the account specified by Agent in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the requested funding date, unless Agent’s notice is received after the times provided above, in which event each Applicable Lender shall fund its Pro Rata share by 11:00 a.m. on the next Business Day. Subject to its receipt of such amounts from the Applicable Lenders, Agent shall disburse the proceeds of the Revolver Loans as directed by Loan Party Agent. Unless Agent shall have received (in sufficient time to act) written notice from an Applicable Lender that it does not intend to fund its Pro Rata share of a Borrowing or of any settlement pursuant to Section 4.1.3(b), Agent may assume that such Applicable Lender has deposited or promptly will deposit its share with Agent, and Agent may disburse a corresponding amount to such Borrower. If an Applicable Lender’s share of any Borrowing is not received by Agent, then such Borrower agrees to repay to Agent on demand the amount of such share, together with interest thereon from the date disbursed until repaid, at the rate applicable to such Borrowing.

4.1.3 Swingline Loans; Settlement.

(a) Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, advance U.S. Swingline Loans to the U.S. Borrower up to an aggregate outstanding amount of $21,875,000, unless the funding is specifically required to be made by all U.S. Lenders hereunder. Each U.S. Swingline Loan shall constitute a U.S. Revolver Loan for all purposes, except that payments thereon shall be made to Agent for its own account. The obligation of the U.S. Borrower to repay U.S. Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by the records of Agent and need not be evidenced by any promissory note. All U.S. Swingline Loans shall be denominated in Dollars and shall be U.S. Base Rate Loans.

(b) Settlement of U.S. Swingline Loans and other U.S./European Revolver Loans among the U.S. Lenders and Agent shall take place on a date determined from time to time by Agent (but at least weekly). On each settlement date, settlement shall be made with each U.S. Lender in accordance with the Settlement Report delivered by Agent to U.S. Lenders. Between settlement dates, Agent may in its discretion apply payments on U.S. Revolver Loans to U.S. Swingline Loans regardless of any designation by the U.S. Borrower or any provision herein to the contrary. Each U.S. Lender’s obligation to make settlements with Agent is absolute and unconditional, without offset, counterclaim or other defense, and whether or not the U.S./European Revolver Commitments have terminated, a U.S./European Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied. If, due to an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to the U.S. Borrower or otherwise, any U.S. Swingline Loan may not be settled among U.S. Lenders hereunder, then each U.S. Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from Agent a Pro Rata participation in each unpaid U.S. Swingline Loan and shall transfer the amount of such participation to Agent, in immediately available funds, within one (1) Business Day after Agent’s request therefor.

(c) Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, request that Bank of America (Canada) advance Canadian Swingline Loans to the Canadian Borrower, up to an aggregate outstanding amount of the Dollar Equivalent of $3,125,000, unless the funding is specifically required to be made by all Canadian Lenders hereunder. Each Canadian Swingline Loan shall constitute a Canadian Revolver Loan for all purposes, except that payments thereon shall be made to Agent for Bank of America (Canada)’s account. The obligation of the Canadian Borrower to repay Canadian Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by the records of Agent and need not be evidenced by any promissory note. All Canadian Swingline Loans shall be denominated in Canadian Dollars and shall be a Canadian Prime Rate Loan.

(d) Settlement of Canadian Swingline Loans and other Canadian Revolver Loans among the Canadian Lenders and Agent, on behalf of Bank of America (Canada) shall take place on a date determined from time to time by Agent (but at least weekly). On each settlement date, settlement shall be made with each Canadian Lender in accordance with the Settlement Report delivered by Agent to Canadian Lenders. Between settlement dates, Agent may in its discretion apply payments on Canadian Revolver Loans to Canadian Swingline Loans, regardless of any designation by the Canadian Borrower or any provision herein to the contrary. Each Canadian Lender’s obligation to make settlements with Agent, on behalf of Bank of America (Canada), is absolute and unconditional, without offset, counterclaim or other defense, and whether or not the Canadian Revolver Commitments have terminated, a Canadian

Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied. If, due to an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to the Canadian Borrower or otherwise, any Canadian Swingline Loan may not be settled among Canadian Lenders hereunder, then each Canadian Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from Agent a Pro Rata participation in each unpaid Canadian Swingline Loan and shall transfer the amount of such participation to Agent, in immediately available funds, within one (1) Business Day after Agent’s request therefor.

4.1.4 Notices. Each Borrower authorizes Agent and Lenders to extend, convert or continue Loans, effect selections of interest rates, and transfer funds to or on behalf of applicable Borrowers based on telephonic or e-mailed instructions by Loan Party Agent to Agent. Loan Party Agent shall confirm each such request by prompt delivery to Agent of a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, if applicable, but if it differs in any material respect from the action taken by Agent or Lenders, the records of Agent and Lenders shall govern. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability for any loss suffered by a Borrower as a result of Agent or any Lender acting upon its understanding of telephonic or e-mailed instructions from a person believed in good faith by Agent or any Lender to be a person authorized to give such instructions on Loan Party Agent’s behalf.

4.2 Defaulting Lender.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary:

4.2.1 Reallocation of Pro Rata Share; Amendments. For purposes of determining Lenders’ obligations or rights to fund, participate in or receive collections with respect to Loans and Letters of Credit (including existing Swingline Loans, Protective Advances and LC Obligations), Agent may in its discretion reallocate Pro Rata shares by excluding the Commitments and Loans of a Defaulting Lender from the calculation of Pro Rata shares. A Defaulting Lender shall have no right to vote on any amendment, waiver or other modification of a Loan Document, except as provided in Section 14.1.1(c).

4.2.2 Payments; Fees. Agent may, in its discretion, receive and retain any amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender under the Loan Documents, and a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have assigned to Agent such amounts until all Obligations owing to Agent, non-Defaulting Lenders and other Secured Parties have been paid in full. Agent may use such amounts to cover the Defaulting Lender’s defaulted obligations, to Cash Collateralize such Lender’s Fronting Exposure, to readvance the amounts to Borrowers or to repay other Obligations. A Lender shall not be entitled to receive any fees accruing hereunder during the period in which it is a Defaulting Lender, and the unfunded portion of its Commitment shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating the unused line fee under Section 3.2.1 and Section 3.2.2. If any LC Obligations owing to a Defaulted Lender are reallocated to other Lenders, fees attributable to such LC Obligations under Section 3.2.3 and Section 3.2.4 shall be paid to such Lenders. Agent shall be paid all fees attributable to LC Obligations that are not reallocated.

4.2.3 Cure. Agent may determine in its discretion that a Lender constitutes a Defaulting Lender and the effective date of such status shall be conclusive and binding on all parties, absent manifest error. Borrowers, Agent and Issuing Bank may agree in writing that a Lender has ceased to be a Defaulting Lender, whereupon Pro Rata shares shall be reallocated without exclusion of the reinstated Lender’s Commitments and Loans, and all outstanding Revolver Loans, LC Obligations and other exposures under the Revolver Commitments shall be

reallocated among Lenders and settled by Agent (with appropriate payments by the reinstated Lender) in accordance with the readjusted Pro Rata shares. Unless expressly agreed by Borrowers, Agent and Issuing Bank, no reinstatement of a Defaulting Lender shall constitute a waiver or release of claims against such Lender. The failure of any Lender to fund a Loan, to make a payment in respect of LC Obligations or otherwise to perform obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations under any Loan Document, and no Lender shall be responsible for default by another Lender.

4.3 Number and Amount of Interest Period Loans; Determination of Rate. For ease of administration, all Interest Period Loans of the same Type to a Borrower having the same length and beginning date of their Interest Periods and the same currency shall be aggregated together, and such Loans shall be allocated among the Applicable Lenders on a Pro Rata basis. With respect to the U.S. Borrower, no more than six (6) Borrowings of LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at any time, and with respect to the European Borrower, no more than six (6) Borrowings of LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at any time, and each Borrowing of LIBOR Loans when made, continued or converted shall be in a minimum amount of the Dollar Equivalent of $1,000,000 or an increment of the Dollar Equivalent of $500,000, in excess thereof. With respect to the Canadian Borrower, no more than four (4) Borrowings of Interest Period Loans may be outstanding at any time, and each Borrowing of Interest Period Loans when made, continued or converted shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 (or, in the case of Canadian BA Rate Loans, Cdn$1,000,000) or an increment of $500,000 (or, in the case of Canadian BA Rate Loans, Cdn$500,000), in excess thereof. Upon determining LIBOR or the Canadian BA Rate for any Interest Period requested by a Borrower, Agent shall promptly notify Loan Party Agent thereof by telephone or electronically and, if requested by Loan Party Agent, shall confirm any telephonic notice in writing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the initial Borrowing from any Lender and (to the extent provided before such initial Borrowing) any initial issuance of a Letter of Credit by any Issuing Bank to the European Borrower shall exceed €100,000 (or its equivalent in another currency).

4.4 Loan Party Agent. Each Loan Party hereby designates Xxxxxx-Standard Automotive Inc. (“Loan Party Agent”) as its representative and agent for all purposes under the Loan Documents, including requests for Loans and Letters of Credit, designation of interest rates, delivery or receipt of communications, preparation and delivery of Borrower Materials, receipt and payment of Obligations, requests for waivers, amendments or other accommodations, actions under the Loan Documents (including in respect of compliance with covenants), and all other dealings with Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender. Loan Party Agent hereby accepts such appointment. Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any notice or communication (including any Notice of Borrowing) delivered by Loan Party Agent on behalf of any Loan Party. Agent and Lenders may give any notice or communication with a Loan Party hereunder to Loan Party Agent on behalf of such Loan Party. Each of Agent, Issuing Banks and Lenders shall have the right, in its discretion, to deal exclusively with Loan Party Agent for any or all purposes under the Loan Documents. Each Loan Party agrees that any notice, election, communication, representation, agreement or undertaking made on its behalf by Loan Party Agent shall be binding upon and enforceable against it.

4.5 One Obligation. Without in any way limiting the Obligations of any U.S. Facility Loan Party with respect to its Guarantee of the Obligations of the Canadian Facility Loan Parties and the European Borrower, the Loan Party Group Obligations owing by each Loan

Party Group shall constitute one (1) general obligation of the Loan Parties within such Loan Party Group and (unless otherwise expressly provided in any Loan Document) shall be secured by Agent’s Lien upon all Collateral of each member of such Loan Party Group; provided, however, that each Secured Party shall be deemed to be a creditor of, and the holder of a separate claim against, each Loan Party to the extent of any Obligations owed by such Loan Party to such Secured Party.

4.6 Effect of Termination. On the effective date of the termination of all Commitments, the Obligations shall be immediately due and payable. Until Full Payment of the Obligations, all undertakings of Borrowers contained in the Loan Documents shall continue, and Agent shall retain its Liens in the Collateral and all of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents. Sections 2.2, 2.3, 3.4, 3.6, 3.7, 3.9, 5.4, 5.8, 5.9, 12, 14.2 and this Section 4.6, and the obligation of each Loan Party and Lender with respect to each indemnity given by it in any Loan Document, shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations and any release relating to this credit facility.

SECTION 5. PAYMENTS

5.1 General Payment Provisions. All payments of Obligations shall be made without offset, counterclaim or defense of any kind, and in immediately available funds, not later than 12:00 noon on the due date. Any payment after such time shall be deemed made on the next Business Day. If any payment under the Loan Documents shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, the due date shall be extended to the next Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in any computation of interest and fees. Any payment of an Interest Period Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period shall be accompanied by all amounts due under Section 3.9. Any prepayment of Loans by a Borrower shall be applied first to Floating Rate Loans of such Borrower and then to Interest Period Loans of such Borrower. All payments with respect to any U.S. Facility Obligations shall be made in Dollars or, if any portion of such U.S. Facility Obligations is denominated in Euros, then in Euros or, if any portion of such U.S. Facility Obligations is denominated in Sterling, then in Sterling. All payments with respect to any Canadian Facility Obligations shall be made in Canadian Dollars or, if any portion of such Canadian Facility Obligations is denominated in Dollars, then in Dollars. All payments with respect to any European Facility Obligations shall be made in Euros.

5.2 Repayment of Obligations. All Canadian Facility Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full on the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date and all U.S./European Facility Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full on the U.S./European Revolver Commitment Termination Date, in each case, unless payment of such Obligations is sooner required hereunder. Revolver Loans may be prepaid from time to time, without penalty or premium, subject to, in the case of Interest Period Loans, the payment of costs set forth in Section 3.9. If any Asset Disposition (other than sales of Inventory in the Ordinary Course of Business) by any Loan Party constitutes the disposition of ABL Priority Collateral resulting in Net Proceeds received in any single transaction of greater than $10,000,000, then Net Proceeds equal to the greater of (a) the net book value of the applicable Accounts and Inventory, or (b) the reduction in the Borrowing Base of the applicable Borrower upon giving effect to such Asset Disposition, shall be applied to the Revolver Loans of such Borrower; provided, that, at the election of the applicable Loan Party (as notified by the Loan Party Agent to Agent on or prior to the date of the receipt of such Net Proceeds), and so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the applicable Loan Party may reinvest all or any portion of such Net Proceeds in

operating assets so long as within 360 days after the receipt of such Net Proceeds, such purchase shall have been consummated (as certified by the Loan Party Agent in writing to Agent); and provided further, however, that any Net Proceeds not so reinvested shall be immediately applied as otherwise set forth in this Section 5.2. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if an Overadvance exists (including as the result of any Asset Disposition as specified in the preceding sentence), the Borrower owing such Overadvance shall, on the sooner of Agent’s demand or the first (1^st) Business Day after such Borrower has knowledge thereof, repay the outstanding Loans in an amount sufficient to reduce the principal balance of the related Overadvance Loan to zero.

5.3 Payment of Other Obligations. Obligations shall be paid by the Borrowers as provided in the Loan Documents or, if no payment date or time for payment is specified, on demand.

5.4 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. None of Agent or Lenders shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Loan Party or against any Obligations. If any payment by or on behalf of the Borrowers is made to Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, or Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender exercises a right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a Creditor Representative or any other Person, then to the extent of such recovery, the Obligation originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies relating thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred.

5.5 Post-Default Allocation of Payments.

5.5.1 Allocation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent shall apply and allocate monies to the Obligations, whether arising from payments by or on behalf of any Loan Party, realization on Collateral, setoff or otherwise, as follows:

(a) with respect to monies, payments, Property or Collateral of or from any U.S./European Facility Loan Parties:

(i) first, to all U.S./European Facility Obligations consisting of costs and expenses, including Extraordinary Expenses, owing to Agent;

(ii) second, to all amounts owing to Agent on U.S. Swingline Loans;

(iii) third, to all amounts owing to U.S. Issuing Bank on U.S. LC Obligations and European LC Obligations;

(iv) fourth, to all U.S./European Facility Obligations constituting fees (excluding amounts relating to Secured Bank Product Obligations) owing by the U.S./European Facility Loan Parties (exclusive of any amounts guaranteed by the U.S. Domiciled Loan Parties in respect of Canadian Facility Obligations);

(v) fifth, to all U.S./European Facility Obligations constituting interest (excluding amounts relating to Secured Bank Product Obligations) owing by the U.S./European Facility Loan Parties (exclusive of any amounts guaranteed by the U.S. Domiciled Loan Parties in respect of Canadian Facility Obligations);

(vi) sixth, to provide Cash Collateral for outstanding U.S. Letters of Credit and European Letters of Credit;

(vii) seventh, to all other U.S./European Facility Obligations (exclusive of any amounts guaranteed by the U.S. Domiciled Loan Parties in respect of Canadian Facility Obligations), including Secured Bank Product Obligations; provided, that amounts constituting Secured Bank Product Obligations shall only be repayed to the extent (x) if applicable, proper notice of such amounts has been provided pursuant to the definition of Bank Product and (y) an appropriate Reserve shall have been established with respect thereto;

(viii) eighth, to be applied in accordance with clause (b) below, to the extent there are insufficient funds for the Full Payment of all Obligations owing by the Canadian Domiciled Loan Parties;

(ix) ninth, to amounts outstanding under Designated Foreign Guaranties on a pro rata basis; provided, that such amounts shall only be repayed to the extent (x) proper notice of such amounts has been provided pursuant to clause (y) of the definition of Designated Foreign Guaranty and (y) an appropriate Reserve shall have been established with respect thereto; and

(x) tenth, after Full Payment of all Obligations, the remainder to Loan Party Agent for the benefit of the U.S. Domiciled Loan Parties or such other Person(s) as shall be legally entitled thereto.

(b) with respect to monies, payments, Property or Collateral of or from any Canadian Domiciled Loan Parties, together with any allocations pursuant to subclause (viii) of clause (a) above:

(i) first, to all Canadian Facility Obligations consisting of costs and expenses, including Extraordinary Expenses, owing to Agent, to the extent owing by any Canadian Domiciled Loan Party;

(ii) second, to all amounts owing to Agent on Canadian Swingline Loans;

(iii) third, to all amounts owing to Canadian Issuing Bank on Canadian LC Obligations;

(iv) fourth, to all Canadian Facility Obligations constituting fees (excluding amounts relating to Secured Bank Product Obligations);

(v) fifth, to all Canadian Facility Obligations constituting interest (excluding amounts relating to Secured Bank Product Obligations);

(vi) sixth, to provide Cash Collateral for outstanding Canadian Letters of Credit;

(vii) seventh, to all other Canadian Facility Obligations, including Secured Bank Product Obligations; provided, that amounts constituting Secured Bank Product Obligations shall only be repaid to the extent (x) proper notice of such amounts has been provided pursuant to the definition of Bank Product and (y) an appropriate Reserve shall have been established with respect thereto;

(viii) eighth, to amounts outstanding under Designated Foreign Guaranties on a pro rata basis; provided, that such amounts shall only be repaid to the extent (x) proper notice of such amounts has been provided pursuant to clause (y) of the definition of Designated Foreign Guaranty and (y) an appropriate Reserve shall have been established with respect thereto; and

(ix) ninth, after Full Payment of all Canadian Facility Obligations, the remainder to Loan Party Agent for the benefit of the Canadian Domiciled Loan Parties or such other Person(s) as shall be legally entitled thereto.

Amounts shall be applied to each category of Obligations set forth above until Full Payment thereof and then to the next category. If amounts are insufficient to satisfy a category, they shall be applied on a pro rata basis among the Obligations in the category. Monies and proceeds obtained from a Loan Party shall not be applied to its Excluded Swap Obligations, but appropriate adjustments shall be made with respect to amounts obtained from other Loan Parties to preserve the allocation specified above. Amounts distributed with respect to any Secured Bank Product Obligations shall be the actual Secured Bank Product Obligations as calculated using the methodology reported to Agent for such Obligation (but no greater than the maximum amount reported to Agent). Agent shall have no obligation to calculate the amount of any Secured Bank Product Obligation and may request a reasonably detailed calculation thereof from the applicable Secured Bank Product Provider. If the provider fails to deliver the calculation within five days following request, Agent may assume the amount is zero. The allocations set forth in this Section 5.5.1 are solely to determine the rights and priorities of Agent and Lenders as among themselves, and may be changed by agreement among them without the consent of any Loan Party. This Section is not for the benefit of or enforceable by any Borrower.

5.5.2 Erroneous Application. Agent shall not be liable for any application of amounts made by it in good faith and, if any such application is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender or other Person to which such amount should have been made shall be to recover the amount from the Person that actually received it (and, if such amount was received by any Lender, such Lender hereby agrees to return it).

5.6 Application of Payments. The ledger balance in the main Dominion Account of each applicable Borrower as of the end of a Business Day shall be applied to the Loan Party Group Obligations of such Borrower at the beginning of the next Business Day during any Cash Dominion Trigger Period. If, as a result of such application, a credit balance exists, the balance shall not accrue interest in favor of the applicable Borrower and shall be made available to such Borrower as long as no Event of Default exists. Each Borrower irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any payments or Collateral proceeds made pursuant to Section 5.5, and agrees that Agent shall have the continuing, exclusive right to apply and reapply same against the Obligations, in such manner as Agent deems advisable. The amounts in the U.S. Dominion Account will go to the U.S. Facility Obligations or the European Facility Obligations as determined by Agent.

5.7 Loan Account; Account Stated.

5.7.1 Loan Account. Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual and customary practices an account or accounts (“Loan Account”) evidencing the obligations of each Borrower resulting from each Loan made to such Borrower or issuance of a Letter of Credit for the account of such Borrower from time to time. Any failure of Agent to record anything in the Loan Account, or any error in doing so, shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers to pay any amount owing hereunder. Agent may maintain a single Loan Account in the name of Loan Party Agent, and each Borrower confirms that such arrangement shall have no effect on the joint and several character of its liability for the Obligations of its Loan Party Group or, in the case of the U.S. Borrower, its guarantee of the Obligations of the Canadian Borrower.

5.7.2 Entries Binding. Entries made in the Loan Account shall constitute presumptive evidence of the information contained therein. If any information contained in the Loan Account is provided to or inspected by any Person, then such information shall be conclusive and binding on such Person for all purposes absent manifest error, except to the extent such Person notifies Agent in writing within thirty (30) days after receipt or inspection that specific information is subject to dispute.

5.8 Taxes.

5.8.1 Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any Obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

5.8.2 Other Taxes. The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

5.8.3 Indemnification by Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Loan Party Agent by a Lender (with a copy to Agent), or by Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

5.8.4 Indemnification by Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.2.1 relating to the maintenance of a participant register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to Agent under this Section 5.8.4.

5.8.5 Evidence of Payment. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 5.8, such Loan Party shall deliver to Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Agent.

5.8.6 Treatment of Certain Refunds. If a Loan Party makes a payment of Indemnified Taxes to a Recipient and either (i) the applicable Loan Party determines that there is a reasonable basis for asserting that such Indemnified Taxes were not correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority, unless the relevant Recipient reasonably disagrees with such determination or (ii) the applicable Recipient has actual knowledge that such Indemnified Taxes are refundable to such Recipient by the relevant Governmental Authority (in which case such Recipient shall within a reasonable period of time provide written notice to the applicable Loan Party of such refundable Indemnified Taxes) then, in each case, at the applicable Loan Party’s written request and at the applicable Loan Party’s cost and expense, such Recipient shall make a claim for refund of such Indemnified Taxes (and any interest and penalties arising therefrom or with respect thereto) to such Governmental Authority in the manner prescribed by Applicable Law and shall take such other reasonable necessary actions as required by the applicable Loan Party in pursuit of such refund claim. To the extent a Recipient actually realizes a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 5.8 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.8), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 5.8.6 (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.8.6, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 5.8.6 the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise

imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

5.8.7 Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 5.8 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

5.8.8 Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 5.8 and Section 5.9, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “Applicable Law” includes FATCA.

5.9 Lender Tax Information.

5.9.1. Generally. Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding from Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Loan Party Agent and Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Loan Party Agent or Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Loan Party Agent or Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Loan Party Agent or Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Loan Party Agent or Agent as will enable the Loan Party Agent or Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 5.9.2(i), (ii)(a), (ii)(b), (ii)(c), (ii)(d) and (iii) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

5.9.2 U.S. Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States, (i) any Recipient that is a “United States person” within the meaning of section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to Agent and Loan Party Agent IRS Form W-9 or such other documentation or information prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by Agent or Loan Party Agent certifying that such Recipient is exempt from United States backup withholding and information reporting requirements, (ii) any Recipient that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, shall deliver to Agent and Loan Party Agent, on or prior to the date on which it becomes a party hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request by Agent or Loan Party Agent, but only if such Lender is entitled to do so under Applicable Law), (a) IRS Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party; (b) IRS Form W-8ECI; (c) IRS Form W-8IMY and all required supporting documentation; or (d) in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, IRS Form W-8BEN and a certificate showing such Lender is not (x) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (y) a “10 percent shareholder” of any Loan Party within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (z) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code; and (iii) if a payment made to a Recipient under any Loan Document

would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Recipient were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Recipient shall deliver to the U.S. Borrower and Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the U.S. Borrower or Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the U.S. Borrower or Agent as may be necessary for the U.S. Borrower and Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Recipient has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of the foregoing clause (iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

5.9.3 Lender Obligations. Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Loan Party Agent and Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

5.10 Guarantee by U.S. Facility Loan Parties.

5.10.1 Joint and Several Liability. Each U.S. Domiciled Loan Party agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Agent and Lenders the prompt payment and performance of, all Obligations and all agreements of each other Loan Party under the Loan Documents. Each U.S. Domiciled Loan Party which is a U.S./European Facility Guarantor agrees that its guarantee obligations as a U.S./European Facility Guarantor and as a Canadian Facility Guarantor hereunder constitute a continuing guarantee of payment and not of collection, that such guarantee obligations shall not be discharged until Full Payment of the Obligations, and that such guarantee obligations are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of (a) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability, subordination or any future modification of, or change in, any Obligations or Loan Document, or any other document, instrument or agreement to which any Loan Party is or may become a party or be bound; (b) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section 5.10) or any other Loan Document, or any waiver, consent or indulgence of any kind by Agent or any Lender with respect thereto; (c) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect a Lien or to preserve rights against, any security or guarantee for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by Agent or any Lender in respect thereof (including the release of any security or guarantee); (d) the insolvency of any Loan Party; (e) any election by Agent or any Lender in an Insolvency Proceeding for the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code; (f) any borrowing or grant of a Lien by any other Loan Party, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; (g) the disallowance of any claims of Agent or any Lender against any Loan Party for the repayment of any Obligations under Section 502 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; or (h) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, except Full Payment of all Obligations.

5.10.2 Waivers.

(a) Each U.S. Domiciled Loan Party hereby expressly waives all rights that it may have now or in the future under any statute, at common law, in equity or otherwise, to compel Agent or Lenders to marshal assets or to proceed against any Loan Party, other Person or

security for the payment or performance of any Obligations before, or as a condition to, proceeding against such Loan Party. Each U.S. Domiciled Loan Party waives all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor other than Full Payment of all Obligations. It is agreed among each U.S. Domiciled Loan Party, Agent and Lenders that the provisions of this Section 5.10 are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents and that, but for such provisions, Agent and Lenders would decline to make Loans and issue Letters of Credit. Each U.S. Domiciled Loan Party acknowledges that its guarantee pursuant to this Section is necessary to the conduct and promotion of its business, and can be expected to benefit such business.

(b) Agent and Lenders may, in their discretion, pursue such rights and remedies as they deem appropriate, including realization upon the Collateral by judicial foreclosure or non-judicial sale or enforcement without affecting any rights and remedies under this Section 5.10. If, in taking any action in connection with the exercise of any rights or remedies, Agent or any Lender shall forfeit any other rights or remedies, including the right to enter a deficiency judgment against any U.S. Domiciled Party or other Person, whether because of any Applicable Laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or otherwise, each U.S. Domiciled Loan Party consents to such action and waives any claim based upon it, even if the action may result in loss of any rights of subrogation that any U.S. Domiciled Loan Party might otherwise have had. Any election of remedies that results in denial or impairment of the right of Agent or any Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against any U.S. Domiciled Loan Party shall not impair any other U.S. Domiciled Loan Party’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations. Each U.S. Domiciled Loan Party waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to any security for the Obligations, even though that election of remedies destroys such U.S. Domiciled Loan Party’s rights of subrogation against any other Person. Agent may bid all or a portion of the Obligations at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale, and the amount of such bid need not be paid by Agent but shall be credited against the Obligations. The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether Agent or any other Person is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral, and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Section 5.10, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which Agent or any Lender might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

5.10.3 Extent of Liability; Contribution.

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (other than as specified in Section 5.10.6), each U.S. Domiciled Loan Party’s liability under this Section 5.10 shall be limited to the greater of (i) all amounts for which such U.S. Domiciled Loan Party is primarily liable, as described below, and (ii) such U.S. Domiciled Loan Party’s Allocable Amount.

(b) If any U.S. Domiciled Loan Party makes a payment under this Section 5.10 of any Obligations (other than amounts for which such U.S. Domiciled Loan Party is primarily liable) (a “Guarantor Payment”) that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments previously or concurrently made by any other U.S. Domiciled Loan Party, exceeds the amount that such U.S. Domiciled Loan Party would otherwise have paid if each U.S. Domiciled Loan Party had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payments in the same

proportion that such U.S. Domiciled Loan Party’s Allocable Amount bore to the total Allocable Amounts of all U.S. Domiciled Loan Parties, then such U.S. Domiciled Loan Party shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and to be reimbursed by, each other U.S. Domiciled Loan Party for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment. The “Allocable Amount” for any U.S. Domiciled Loan Party shall be the maximum amount that could then be recovered from such U.S. Domiciled Loan Party under this Section 5.10 without rendering such payment voidable under Section 548 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state fraudulent transfer or conveyance act, or similar statute or common law.

(c) Nothing contained in this Section 5.10 (other than as specified in Section 5.10.6) shall limit the liability of any Loan Party to pay Loans made directly or indirectly to that Loan Party (including Loans advanced to any other Loan Party and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Loan Party), LC Obligations relating to Letters of Credit issued to support such Loan Party’s business, and all accrued interest, fees, expenses and other related Obligations with respect thereto, for which such Loan Party shall be primarily liable for all purposes hereunder.

(d) Each U.S. Domiciled Loan Party that is a Qualified ECP when its guaranty of or grant of a Lien as security for a Swap Obligation becomes effective hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support to each Specified Loan Party with respect to such Swap Obligation as may be needed by such Specified Loan Party from time to time to honor all of its obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of such Swap Obligation (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering such Qualified ECP’s obligations and undertakings under this Section 5.10 voidable under any applicable fraudulent transfer or conveyance act). The obligations and undertakings of each Qualified ECP under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until Full Payment of the Obligations. Each Loan Party intends this Section to constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a guarantee of the obligations of, and a “keepwell, support or other agreement” for the benefit of, each Loan Party for all purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act.

5.10.4 Joint Enterprise. Each Borrower has requested that Agent and Lenders make this credit facility available to the Borrowers in order to finance the Borrowers’ business most efficiently and economically. The Borrowers and Guarantors make up a related organization of various entities constituting a single economic and business enterprise so that the Borrowers and Guarantors share an identity of interests such that any benefit received by any one of them benefits the others. The Borrowers and Guarantors render services to or for the benefit of the other Borrowers and/or Guarantors, as the case may be, purchase or sell and supply goods to or from or for the benefit of the others, make loans, advances and provide other financial accommodations to or for the benefit of the other Borrowers and Guarantors (including inter alia, the payment by the Borrowers and Guarantors of creditors of the other Borrowers or Guarantors and guarantees by the Borrowers and Guarantors of indebtedness of the other Borrowers and Guarantors and provide administrative, marketing, payroll and management services to or for the benefit of the other Borrowers and Guarantors). The Borrowers and Guarantors have centralized accounting and legal services and certain common officers and directors. The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that Agent’s and Lenders’ willingness to extend credit to the Borrowers and to administer the Collateral, as set forth herein, is done solely as an accommodation to the Borrowers and at the Borrowers’ request.

5.10.5 Subordination. Each Loan Party hereby subordinates any claims, including any rights at law or in equity to payment, subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off, that it may have at any time against any other Loan Party, howsoever arising, to the Full Payment of all Obligations.

5.11 Currency Matters. Dollars are the currency of account and payment for each and every sum at any time due from the Borrowers hereunder unless otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise agreed to by Agent.

5.11.1 Each repayment of a Revolver Loan or LC Obligation or a part thereof shall be made in the currency in which such Revolver Loan or LC Obligation is denominated at the time of that repayment;

To the extent that the amount of any such payment shall, on actual conversion into such currency, fall short of such obligation or liability actual or contingent expressed in that currency, such Loan Party (together with the other Loan Parties within its Loan Party Group or other obligors pursuant to any Guarantee of the Obligations of such Loan Party Group) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless such Secured Party, with respect to the amount of the shortfall with respect to amounts payable by such Loan Party hereunder, with such indemnity surviving the termination of this Agreement and any legal proceeding, judgment or court order pursuant to which the original payment was made which resulted in the shortfall. To the extent that the amount of any such payment to a Secured Party shall, upon an actual conversion into such currency, exceed such obligation or liability, actual or contingent, expressed in that currency, such Secured Party shall return such excess to the affected Loan Party.

5.12 Currency Fluctuations. On each Business Day or such other date determined by Agent, which date with respect to Letters of Credit issued by Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas in currencies other than Dollars shall be the first Business Day of each calendar month (the “Calculation Date”), Agent shall determine the Exchange Rate as of such date. The Exchange Rate so determined shall become effective on the first (1st) Business Day immediately following such determination (a “Reset Date”) and shall remain effective until the next succeeding Reset Date. On each Reset Date, Agent shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of the Canadian Revolver Exposure, the U.S. Revolver Exposure and the European Revolver Exposure. If, on any Reset Date, (w) the Total Revolver Exposure exceeds the total amount of the Commitments on such date or (x) the Canadian Revolver Exposure on such date exceeds the Canadian Borrowing Base on such date or (y) the U.S. Revolver Exposure on such date exceeds the U.S. Borrowing Base on such date or (z) the European Revolver Exposure on such date exceeds the Maximum European Subline Amount on such date (the amount of any such excess referred to herein as the “Excess Amount”) then (i) Agent shall give notice thereof to the applicable Borrower and Applicable Lenders and (ii) within two (2) Business Days thereafter, the applicable Borrower shall cause such excess to be eliminated, either by repayment of Revolver Loans or depositing of Cash Collateral with Agent with respect to LC Obligations and until such Excess Amount is repaid, the Applicable Lenders shall not have any obligation to make any Loans.

Each Loan Party hereby authorizes and directs each bank or other depository to deliver to Agent, upon request, all balances in any DACA Deposit Account maintained by such Loan Party, without inquiry into the authority or right of Agent to make such request.

7.2.2 Cash Collateral. Any Cash Collateral may be invested, at Agent’s discretion, in Cash Equivalents, but Agent shall have no duty to do so, regardless of any agreement or course of dealing with any Loan Party, and shall have no responsibility for any investment or loss. To further secure the prompt payment and performance of all of its Obligations (including, without limitation, all Obligations of the Guarantors), each U.S. Domiciled Loan Party hereby grants to Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and to further secure the prompt payment and performance of all Canadian Facility Obligations, each Canadian Domiciled Loan Party hereby grants to Agent, for the benefit of the Canadian Facility Secured Parties, in each case, a continuing security interest in and Lien on all Cash Collateral held by such Loan Party from time to time and all proceeds thereof, whether such Cash Collateral is held in a Cash Collateral Account or elsewhere.

No Canadian Domiciled Loan Party or other Person claiming through or on behalf of any Canadian Domiciled Loan Party shall have any right to any Cash Collateral, until Full Payment of all Canadian Facility Obligations, unless if the condition for establishing Cash Collateral hereunder or under any other Loan Document is in any manner satisfied or the amount of required Cash Collateral reduced, the applicable Cash Collateral (or portion thereof) relating to such condition shall at such time be paid by Agent to the Loan Party Agent.

7.3 Other Collateral.

7.3.1 Commercial Tort Claims. Loan Party Agent shall each quarter, concurrently with the delivery of financial information required pursuant to Section 10.1.2(c), notify Agent in writing if any Loan Party (other than the European Borrower) has obtained during the preceding month a Commercial Tort Claim arising out of the ABL Priority Collateral in respect of which any complaint or similar filing shall have been made (other than, as long as no Event of Default exists, a Commercial Tort Claim for less than $5,000,000), and Schedule 9.1.16 shall at such time be deemed automatically amended to include such claim, and Loan Party Agent shall also take such actions as Agent deems appropriate to subject such claim to a duly perfected, first priority Lien in favor of Agent (for the benefit of Secured Parties).

7.3.2 Certain After-Acquired Collateral. Loan Party Agent shall each year, concurrently with the delivery of financial information required pursuant to Section 10.1.2(a), provide Agent with updated schedules to the Perfection Certificate, and, upon Agent’s request, shall promptly take such actions as Agent reasonably deems appropriate to effect Agent’s duly perfected, first priority Lien upon any such additional ABL Priority Collateral specified in such schedules, including obtaining any appropriate possession, control agreement or Collateral Access Agreement (it being understood that there shall be no requirement to obtain Collateral Access Agreements not obtainable with commercially reasonable efforts), as appropriate and/or executing such additional Security Documents as may be reasonably requested by Agent. If any material ABL Priority Collateral is in the possession of a third party, at Agent’s request, the applicable Loan Party having rights in such ABL Priority Collateral shall obtain a Collateral Access Agreement with respect thereto, it being understood that there shall be no requirement to obtain Collateral Access Agreements not obtainable with commercially reasonable efforts and, subject in any event to Agent’s discretion, as provided in this Agreement, including making cost/benefit determinations, to determine eligibility of the related Collateral or to impose reserves with respect thereto if such ABL Priority Collateral consists of any material Eligible Accounts or Eligible Inventory. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding two (2) sentences, Agent shall not require any Loan Party to establish Agent’s control over any Excluded Deposit Account or deliver Collateral Access Agreements not obtainable with commercially reasonable efforts.

7.4 No Assumption of Liability; Limitations. The Lien on Collateral granted hereunder is given as security only and shall not subject Agent or any Lender to, or in any way modify, any obligation or liability of the Loan Parties relating to any Collateral. In no event shall the grant of any Lien under any Loan Document secure an Excluded Swap Obligation of the granting Loan Party.

7.5 Further Assurances. Promptly upon request, and subject to the other provisions of this Section 7, Loan Party Agent shall deliver such instruments, assignments, title certificates, or other documents or agreements, and shall take such actions, as Agent deems appropriate under Applicable Law to evidence or perfect its Lien on any Collateral, or otherwise to give effect to the intent of this Agreement. Each Loan Party (other than the European Borrower) authorizes Agent to file any financing statement that indicates the Collateral in a manner consistent with this Agreement, and ratifies any action taken by Agent before the Restatement Date to effect or perfect its Lien on any Collateral.

7.6 Certain Determinations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, this Section 7 shall not require the creation or perfection of any collateral security interests or Liens in any Property of any Loan Party if and for so long as Agent, in consultation with the Loan Party Agent, reasonably determines that the cost of creating or perfecting such security interests or Liens shall be excessive in view of the benefits to be obtained by the Secured Parties therefrom, including, without limitation, requiring delivery of physical possession of de minimis amounts of money held and used by Holdings and its Subsidiaries in the Ordinary Course of Business.

SECTION 8. COLLATERAL ADMINISTRATION

All calculations of the applicable Borrowing Base in any Borrowing Base Certificate shall originally be made by Loan Party Agent and certified by a Senior Officer of Loan Party Agent, provided that Agent may from time to time in its Permitted Discretion, review and adjust any such calculation to (a) reflect its reasonable estimate of declines in value of any Collateral, due to collections received in the Dominion Account or otherwise; (b) to adjust advance rates to reflect changes in dilution, quality, mix and other factors affecting Collateral; and (c) to the extent the calculation is not made in accordance with this Agreement or does not accurately reflect the U.S./European Availability Reserve and/or the Canadian Availability Reserve.

8.2.2 Taxes. If an Account of any Loan Party includes a charge for any Taxes, Agent is authorized, in its discretion, after a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to pay the amount thereof to the proper Governmental Authority for the account of such Loan Party and to charge the Loan Party Agent therefor; provided, however, that neither Agent nor Lenders shall be liable for any Taxes that may be due from the Loan Parties or with respect to any Collateral.

The Loan Parties shall use, store and maintain all Inventory with reasonable care and caution, in accordance with historical practices and in conformity in all material respects with all Applicable Law, and shall make current rent payments (within applicable grace periods provided for in leases) at all locations where any ABL Priority Collateral is located; except in any such case where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

8.5 Administration of Deposit Accounts. Schedule 8.5 sets forth all lockbox arrangements and Deposit Accounts (including Dominion Accounts) maintained by the Loan Parties in the United States and Canada as of the Restatement Date. Each Loan Party shall take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to establish Agent’s control of each such Deposit Account (other than Excluded Deposit Accounts) by causing the related deposit account bank to enter into a Deposit Account Control Agreement; it being understood that, with respect to any Deposit Account which does not at any time comply with the foregoing requirements specified in this sentence (other than those required to be delivered on the Restatement Date), the applicable Borrower shall provide notice of the same to Agent, and no funds contained therein shall be treated as either Canadian Designated Cash Amount or U.S. Designated Cash Amount for purposes of this Agreement and the Loan Party Agent shall within thirty (30) days, at Agent’s request and in coordination with Agent, cause replacement arrangements to be implemented with respect to the applicable accounts which are reasonably satisfactory to Agent. The sole account holder of each Deposit Account shall be a single Loan Party and the Loan Parties shall not allow any other Person (other than Agent and, subject to any Permitted Senior Secured Debt Intercreditor Agreement, the agent specified therein) to have control (as contemplated by the UCC and the PPSA) over a DACA Deposit Account or any Property deposited therein. Each Loan Party shall promptly notify Agent of any opening or closing of a Deposit Account in the United States or Canada, as applicable, and, concurrently with the opening thereof, shall ensure such account (other than accounts excluded from the operation of this paragraph above) is subject to a fully executed Deposit Account Control Agreement, an original copy of which has been delivered to Agent.

Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any duty to any Loan Party to make any inspection, nor to share any results of any inspection, appraisal or report with any Loan Party (provided that, except when an Event of Default exists, a representative of Loan Party Agent is given the opportunity to be present during any discussion with any such agent, adviser or independent accountant). The Loan Parties acknowledge that all inspections, appraisals and reports are prepared by Agent and Lenders for their purposes, and the Loan Parties shall not be entitled to rely upon them. Notwithstanding the foregoing, appraisals of the Loan Parties’ Inventory shall not be required unless and until the Total Revolver Exposure (excluding the stated amount of Letters of Credit that have been issued but are undrawn) exceeds $75,000,000, in which case the Loan Party Agent shall provide to Agent at Agent’s request updated appraisals of the Loan Parties’ Inventory (a) within 45 days of such request and (b) thereafter, one time per Loan Year so long as, but only to the extent that, the Total Revolver Exposure (excluding the stated amount of Letters of Credit that have been issued but are undrawn) exceeds $75,000,000 at the time that Agent requests such appraisal.

130

11.5 Remedies Cumulative; No Waiver.

11.5.1 Cumulative Rights. All agreements, warranties, guarantees, indemnities and other undertakings of the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents are cumulative and not in derogation of each other. The rights and remedies of Agent and Lenders are cumulative, may be exercised at any time and from time to time, concurrently or in any order, and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies available by agreement, by law, at equity or otherwise. All such rights and remedies shall continue in full force and effect until Full Payment of all Obligations.

11.6 Judgment Currency. If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court or obtaining an order enforcing a judgment, it becomes necessary to convert any amount due under this Agreement in Dollars or in any other currency (hereinafter in this Section 11.6 called the “first currency”) into any other currency (hereinafter in this Section 11.6 called the “second currency”), then the conversion shall be made at Agent’s spot rate of exchange for buying the first currency with the second currency prevailing at Agent’s close of business on the Business Day next preceding the day on which the judgment is given or (as the case may be) the order is made. Any payment made by a Loan Party to any Secured Party pursuant to this Agreement in the second currency shall constitute a discharge of the obligations of any applicable Loan Parties to pay to such Secured Party any amount originally due to the Secured Party in the first currency under this Agreement only to the extent of the amount of the first currency which such Secured Party is able, on the date of the receipt by it of such payment in any second currency, to purchase, in accordance with such Secured Party’s normal banking procedures, with the amount of such second currency so received. If the amount of the first currency falls short of the amount originally due to such Secured Party in the first currency under this Agreement, the Loan Parties agree that they will indemnify each Secured Party against and save such Secured Party harmless from any shortfall so arising. This indemnity shall constitute an obligation of each such Loan Party separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Agreement, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum or sums in respect of amounts due to any Secured Party under any Loan Documents or under any such judgment or order. Any such shortfall shall be deemed to constitute a loss suffered by such Secured Party and the Loan Parties shall not be entitled to require any proof or evidence of any actual loss. If the amount of the first currency exceeds the amount originally due to a Secured Party in the first currency under this Agreement, such Secured Party shall promptly remit such excess to the Loan Parties. The covenants contained in this Section 11.6 shall survive the Full Payment of the Obligations under this Agreement.

131

SECTION 12. AGENT

12.1 Appointment, Authority and Duties of Agent.

12.1.1 Appointment and Authority.

(a) Each Secured Party appoints and designates Bank of America as Agent under all Loan Documents. Agent may, and each Secured Party authorizes Agent to, enter into all Loan Documents to which Agent is intended to be a party and accept all Security Documents, for the benefit of Secured Parties. Any action taken by Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, and the exercise by Agent of any rights or remedies set forth therein, together with all other powers reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized by and binding upon all Secured Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent shall have the sole and exclusive authority to (a) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for Secured Parties with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection with the Loan Documents; (b) execute and deliver as Agent each Loan Document, including any intercreditor or subordination agreement, and accept delivery of each Loan Document; (c) act as collateral agent for Secured Parties for purposes of perfecting and administering Liens under the Loan Documents, and for all other purposes stated therein; (d) manage, supervise or otherwise deal with Collateral; and (e) take any Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral or under any Loan Documents, Applicable Law or otherwise. The duties of Agent are ministerial and administrative in nature only, and Agent shall not have a fiduciary relationship with any Secured Party, Participant or other Person, by reason of any Loan Document or any transaction relating thereto. Agent alone shall be authorized to determine (in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents) whether any Account or Inventory constitutes an Eligible Account or Eligible Inventory, whether to impose or release any reserve, or whether any conditions to funding or to issuance of a Letter of Credit have been satisfied, which determinations and judgments, if exercised in good faith, shall exonerate Agent from liability to any Secured Party or other Person for any error in judgment.

(b) For the purposes of creating a solidarité active in accordance with Article 1541 of the Civil Code of Québec between each Secured Party, taken individually, on the one hand, and Agent, on the other hand, each Loan Party and each such Secured Party acknowledge and agree with Agent that such Secured Party and Agent are hereby conferred the legal status of solidary creditors of each such Loan Party in respect of all Obligations owed by each such Loan Party to Agent and such Secured Party hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (collectively, the “Solidary Claim”) and that, accordingly, but subject (for the avoidance of doubt) to Article 1542 of the Civil Code of Québec, each such Loan Party is irrevocably bound towards Agent and each Secured Party in respect of the entire Solidary Claim of Agent and such Secured Party. As a result of the foregoing, the parties hereto acknowledge that Agent and each Secured Party shall at all times have a valid and effective right of action for the entire Solidary Claim of Agent and such Secured Party and the right to give full acquittance for it. Accordingly, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent, as solidary creditor with each Secured Party, shall at all times have a valid and effective right of action in respect of the Solidary Claim and the right to give a full acquittance for same. By its execution of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, each such Loan Party not a party hereto shall also be

132

deemed to have accepted the stipulations hereinabove provided. The parties further agree and acknowledge that such Liens (hypothecs) under the Security Documents and the other Loan Documents shall be granted to Agent, for its own benefit and for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as solidary creditor as hereinabove set forth.

12.1.2 Duties. Agent shall not have any duties except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. The conferral upon Agent of any right shall not imply a duty on Agent’s part to exercise such right, unless instructed to do so by Required Lenders or Required Facility Lenders in accordance with this Agreement.

12.1.3 Agent Professionals. Agent may perform its duties through agents and employees. Agent may consult with and employ Agent Professionals, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by an Agent Professional. Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents, employees or Agent Professionals selected by it with reasonable care.

12.1.4 Instructions of Required Lenders. The rights and remedies conferred upon Agent under the Loan Documents may be exercised without the necessity of joinder of any other party, unless required by Applicable Law. Agent may request instructions from Required Lenders, Required Facility Lenders or other Secured Parties with respect to any act (including the failure to act) in connection with any Loan Documents or Collateral, and may seek assurances to its satisfaction from Secured Parties of their indemnification obligations against Claims that could be incurred by Agent. Agent may refrain from any act until it has received such instructions or assurances, and shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Instructions of Required Lenders or Required Facility Lenders shall be binding upon all Secured Parties, and no Secured Party shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting pursuant to instructions of all Lenders, Required Lenders or Required Facility Lenders, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, instructions by and consent of specific parties shall be required to the extent provided in Section 14.1.1. In no event shall Agent be required to take any action that, in its opinion, is contrary to Applicable Law or any Loan Documents or could subject any Agent Indemnitee to personal liability.

12.2 Agreements Regarding Collateral and Borrower Materials.

12.2.1 Lien Releases; Care of Collateral.

(a) Canadian Lenders and the applicable Secured Parties (i) authorize Agent to, and Agent shall, release any Lien or guarantee with respect to any Canadian Facility Collateral (a) upon Full Payment of the Canadian Facility Obligations; (b) that is the subject of a disposition, merger, amalgamation or other combination or transaction, or a Lien which Loan Party Agent certifies in writing to Agent is not prohibited hereunder (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate without further inquiry); or (c) with the written consent of all Canadian Lenders (or such lesser number as may be required by Section 14.1) and (ii) authorize Agent to, and upon Agent’s reasonable determination of the appropriateness to do so, Agent shall, subordinate their Liens to any Purchase Money Lien permitted hereunder.

(c) Agent shall have no obligation to assure that any Collateral exists or is owned by a Loan Party, or is cared for, protected, insured or encumbered, nor to assure that Agent’s Liens have been properly created, perfected or enforced, or are entitled to any particular priority, nor to exercise any duty of care with respect to any Collateral.

12.2.2 Possession of Collateral.

(a) Agent, Canadian Lenders and the applicable Secured Parties appoint each Canadian Lender as agent (for the benefit of Canadian Facility Secured Parties) for the purpose of perfecting Liens in any Canadian Facility Collateral held or controlled by such Canadian Lender, to the extent such Liens are perfected by possession or control.

(b) Agent, the U.S. Lenders and the applicable Secured Parties appoint each U.S. Lender as agent (for the benefit of U.S./European Facility Secured Parties) for the purpose of perfecting Liens in any U.S./European Facility Collateral held or controlled by such U.S. Lender, to the extent such Liens are perfected by possession or control.

(c) If any Lender obtains possession or control of any Collateral, it shall notify Agent thereof and, promptly upon Agent’s request, deliver such Collateral to Agent or otherwise deal with it in accordance with Agent’s instructions.

12.2.3 Reports. Agent shall promptly provide to Lenders, when complete, any field audit, examination or appraisal report prepared for Agent with respect to any Loan Party or Collateral (“Report”). Reports and other Borrower Materials may be made available to Lenders by providing access to them on the Platform, but Agent shall not be responsible for system failures or access issues that may occur from time to time. Each Lender agrees (a) that Reports are not intended to be comprehensive audits or examinations, and that Agent or any other Person performing an audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Obligations or Collateral and will rely significantly upon Borrowers’ books, records and representations; (b) that Agent makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any Borrower Materials and shall not be liable for any information contained in or omitted from any Borrower Materials, including any Report; and (c) to keep all Borrower Materials confidential and strictly for such Lender’s internal use, not to distribute any Report or other Borrower Materials (or the contents thereof) to any Person (except to such Lender’s Participants, attorneys and accountants), and to use all Borrower Materials solely for administration of the Obligations. Each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless Agent and any other Person preparing a Report from any action such Lender may take as a result of or any conclusion it may draw from any Borrower Materials, as well as from any Claims arising as a direct or indirect result of Agent furnishing same to such Lender, via the Platform or otherwise.

134

12.3 Reliance By Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any certification, notice or other communication (including those by telephone, telex, telegram, telecopy or e-mail) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person. Agent shall have a reasonable and practicable amount of time to act upon any instruction, notice or other communication under any Loan Document, and shall not be liable for any delay in acting.

12.4 Action Upon Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, or of any failure to satisfy any conditions in Section 6, unless it has received written notice from a Borrower or Required Lenders specifying the occurrence and nature thereof. If any Lender acquires knowledge of a Default, Event of Default or failure of such conditions, it shall promptly notify Agent thereof in writing. Each Secured Party agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any Loan Documents or with the written consent of Agent and Required Lenders, it will not take any Enforcement Action, accelerate Obligations (other than Secured Bank Product Obligations), or exercise any right that it might otherwise have under Applicable Law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC or PPSA sales or other dispositions of Collateral, or to assert any rights relating to any Collateral.

12.5 Ratable Sharing. If any Lender obtains any payment or reduction of any Obligation, whether through set-off, lien enforcement or otherwise, in excess of its share of such Obligation, determined on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.5.1, as applicable, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank and the other Applicable Lenders such participations in the affected Obligation as are necessary to share the excess payment or reduction on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.5.1, as applicable. If any of such payment or reduction is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. No Lender shall set off against any DACA Deposit Account or Dominion Account without the prior consent of Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Defaulting Lender obtains a payment or reduction of any Obligation, it shall immediately turn over the amount thereof to Agent for application under Section 4.2.2 and it shall provide a written statement to Agent describing the Obligation affected by such payment or reduction. No Lender shall set off against any Dominion Account without Agent’s prior consent.

12.6 Indemnification. EXCEPT FOR LOSSES DETERMINED IN A FINAL, NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO RESULT FROM AN AGENT INDEMNITEE’S OR ISSUING BANK INDEMNITEE’S ACTUAL GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, AS DETERMINED BY A FINAL, NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT OF A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION, EACH LENDER SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS AGENT INDEMNITEES AND ISSUING BANK INDEMNITEES, TO THE EXTENT NOT REIMBURSED BY THE LOAN PARTIES, ON A PRO RATA BASIS, AGAINST ALL CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY SUCH INDEMNITEE, PROVIDED THAT ANY CLAIM AGAINST AN AGENT INDEMNITEE RELATES TO OR ARISES FROM ITS ACTING AS OR FOR AGENT (IN THE CAPACITY OF AGENT). In Agent’s discretion, it may reserve for any Claims made against an Agent Indemnitee or Issuing Bank Indemnitee, and may satisfy any judgment, order or settlement relating thereto, from proceeds of Collateral prior to making any distribution of Collateral proceeds to Secured Parties. If Agent is sued by any Creditor Representative, debtor-in-possession or other Person for any alleged preference or fraudulent transfer, then any monies paid by Agent in settlement or satisfaction of such proceeding, together with all interest, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in the defense of same, shall be promptly reimbursed to Agent by each Lender to the extent of its Pro Rata share.

135

12.7 Limitation on Responsibilities of Agent. Agent shall not be liable to any Secured Party for any action taken or omitted to be taken under the Loan Documents, except for losses determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to result from Agent’s actual gross negligence or willful misconduct. Agent does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by any Loan Party, Lender or other Secured Party of any obligations under the Loan Documents. Agent does not make any express or implied warranty, representation or guarantee to Secured Parties with respect to any Obligations, Collateral, Loan Documents or Loan Party. No Agent Indemnitee shall be responsible to Secured Parties for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in any Loan Documents or Borrower Materials; the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any Loan Documents; the genuineness, enforceability, collectability, value, sufficiency, location or existence of any Collateral, or the validity, extent, perfection or priority of any Lien therein; the validity, enforceability or collectability of any Obligations; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Loan Party or Account Debtor. No Agent Indemnitee shall have any obligation to any Secured Party to ascertain or inquire into the existence of any Default or Event of Default, the observance by any Loan Party of any terms of the Loan Documents, or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in any Loan Documents.

12.8 Successor Agent and Co-Agents.

12.8.1 Resignation; Successor Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, Agent may resign at any time by giving at least thirty (30) days written notice thereof to Lenders and Loan Party Agent Upon receipt of such notice, Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent which shall be (a) a U.S. Lender or an Affiliate of a U.S. Lender; or (b) a financial institution reasonably acceptable to Required Lenders and (provided no Default or Event of Default exists) Borrowers. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of Agent’s resignation, then Agent may appoint a successor agent that is a financial institution acceptable to it, which shall be a Lender unless no Lender accepts the role. Upon acceptance by a successor Agent of its appointment hereunder, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the powers and duties of the retiring Agent without further act, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder but shall continue to have the benefits of the indemnification set forth in Sections 12.6 and 14.2. Notwithstanding any Agent’s resignation, the provisions of this Section 12 shall continue in effect for its benefit with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while Agent. Any successor to Bank of America by merger or acquisition of stock or this loan shall continue to be Agent hereunder without further act on the part of any Secured Party or Loan Party.

12.8.2 Co-Collateral Agent. If necessary or appropriate under Applicable Law, Agent may appoint a Person to serve as a co-collateral agent or separate collateral agent under any Loan Document. Each right and remedy intended to be available to Agent under the Loan Document shall also be vested in such agent. Secured Parties shall execute and deliver any instrument, document or agreement that Agent may request to effect such appointment. If the agent shall die, dissolve, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, then all the rights and remedies of such agent, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, shall vest in and be exercised by Agent until appointment of a new agent.

136

12.9 Due Diligence and Non-Reliance. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lenders, and based upon such documents, information and analyses as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of each Loan Party and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to fund Loans and participate in LC Obligations hereunder. Each Secured Party has made such inquiries as it feels necessary concerning the Loan Documents, Collateral and Loan Parties. Each Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Secured Parties have made no representations or warranties concerning any Loan Party, any Collateral or the legality, validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any Loan Documents or Obligations. Each Secured Party will, independently and without reliance upon any other Secured Party, and based upon such financial statements, documents and information as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make and rely upon its own credit decisions in making Loans and participating in LC Obligations, and in taking or refraining from any action under any Loan Documents. Except for notices, reports and other information expressly requested by a Lender, Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Secured Party with any notices, reports or certificates furnished to Agent by any Loan Party or any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition, business or Properties of any Loan Party (or any of its Affiliates) which may come into possession of Agent or its Affiliates.

12.10 Replacement of Certain Lenders. If a Lender (a) is a Defaulting Lender, (b) fails to give its consent to any amendment, waiver or action for which consent of all Lenders or the Supermajority Required Facility Lenders was required, and Required Lenders, or Required Facility Lenders, as applicable, have consented, or (c) gives notice under Section 3.5 or requests compensation under Section 3.7, or if either Borrower is required to pay additional amounts or indemnity payments with respect to a Lender under Section 5.8, then, in addition to any other rights and remedies that any Person may have, Agent or Loan Party Agent may, by notice to such Lender within one hundred twenty (120) days after such event (or within one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of a notice from such Lender claiming indemnity payments under Section 5.8), require such Lender to assign all of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to Eligible Assignee(s) specified by Agent or Loan Party Agent, pursuant to appropriate Assignment and Acceptance(s) and within twenty (20) days after Agent’s or Loan Party Agent’s notice, as applicable; provided that, in the case of an assignment resulting from a claim for compensation or indemnity payments under Section 3.7 or Section 5.8, such assignment will result in a reduction of claims for compensation or indemnity payments thereafter. Agent is irrevocably appointed as attorney-in-fact to execute any such Assignment and Acceptance if Lender fails to execute same. Such Lender shall be entitled to receive, in cash, concurrently with such assignment, all amounts owed to it under the Loan Documents, including all principal, interest and fees through the date of assignment but excluding any prepayment charge.

12.11 Remittance of Payments and Collections.

12.11.1 Remittances Generally. All payments by any Lender to Agent shall be made by the time and on the day set forth in this Agreement, in immediately available funds. If no time for payment is specified or if payment is due on demand by Agent and request for payment is made by Agent by 11:00 a.m. on a Business Day, payment shall be made by Lender

137

not later than 2:00 p.m. on such day, and if request is made after 11:00 a.m., then payment shall be made by 11:00 a.m. on the next Business Day. Payment by Agent to any Secured Party shall be made by wire transfer, in the type of funds received by Agent. Any such payment shall be subject to Agent’s right of offset for any amounts due from such payee under the Loan Documents.

12.11.2 Failure to Pay. If any Secured Party fails to pay any amount when due by it to Agent pursuant to the terms hereof, such amount shall bear interest, from the due date until paid in full, at the rate determined by Agent as customary for interbank compensation for two Business Days and thereafter at the Default Rate for Floating Rate Loans. In no event shall Borrowers be entitled to receive credit for any interest paid by a Secured Party to Agent, nor shall any Defaulting Lender be entitled to interest on any amounts held by Agent pursuant to Section 4.2.

12.11.3 Recovery of Payments. If Agent pays an amount to a Secured Party in the expectation that a related payment will be received by Agent from a Loan Party and such related payment is not received, then Agent may recover such amount from the Secured Party. If Agent determines that an amount received by it must be returned or paid to a Loan Party or other Person pursuant to Applicable Law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term of any Loan Document, Agent shall not be required to distribute such amount to any Secured Party. If any amounts received and applied by Agent to any Obligations are later required to be returned by Agent pursuant to Applicable Law, each Lender shall pay to Agent, on demand, such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the amounts required to be returned.

12.12 Individual Capacity. As a Lender, Bank of America shall have the same rights and remedies under the Loan Documents as any other Lender, and the terms “Lenders,” “Required Lenders”, “Required Facility Lenders” or any similar term shall include Bank of America in its capacity as a Lender. Agent, Lenders and their Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, provide Bank Products to, act as financial or other advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Loan Parties and their Affiliates, as if they were not Agent or Lenders hereunder, without any duty to account therefor to any Secured Party. In their individual capacities, Agent, Lenders and their Affiliates may receive information regarding Loan Parties, their Affiliates and their Account Debtors (including information subject to confidentiality obligations), and shall have no obligation to provide such information to any Secured Party.

12.13 Titles. Each Lender, other than Bank of America, that is designated (on the cover page of this Agreement or otherwise) by Bank of America as an “Agent,” “Arranger” or “Bookrunner” of any type shall have no right, power or duty under any Loan Documents other than those applicable to all Lenders, and shall in no event have any fiduciary duty to any Secured Party.

12.14 Bank Product Providers. Each Secured Bank Product Provider, by delivery of a notice to Agent of a Bank Product, agrees to be bound by Section 5.5 and this Section 12. Each Secured Bank Product Provider shall indemnify and hold harmless Agent Indemnitees, to the extent not reimbursed by Loan Parties, against all Claims that may be incurred by or asserted against any Agent Indemnitee in connection with such provider’s Secured Bank Product Obligations.

138

12.15 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Section 12 (other than Section 12.2.1, 12.8 and 12.10) is an agreement solely among Lenders (and to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, Lenders and their Affiliates in their capacities as Secured Bank Product Providers) and Agent, and shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations. This Section 12 (other than Section 12.2.1, 12.8 and 12.10) does not confer any rights or benefits upon the Loan Parties or any other Person. As between the Loan Parties and Agent, any action that Agent may take under any Loan Documents or with respect to any Obligations shall be conclusively presumed to have been authorized and directed by Secured Parties.

SECTION 13. BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS

13.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Loan Parties, Agent, Lenders, and their respective successors and assigns, except that (a) no Loan Party (other than pursuant to a transaction permitted under Section 10.2.7(a)) shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under any Loan Documents; and (b) any assignment by a Lender must be made in compliance with Section 13.3. Agent may treat the Person which made any Loan as the owner thereof for all purposes until such Person makes an assignment in accordance with Section 13.3. Any authorization or consent of a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent transferee or assignee of such Lender.

13.2 Participations.

13.2.1 Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with Applicable Law, at any time sell to a financial institution (“Participant”) a participating interest in the rights and obligations of such Lender under any Loan Documents. Despite any sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the holder of its Loans and Facility Commitments for all purposes, all amounts payable by the Loan Parties within the applicable Loan Party Group shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and the Loan Parties within the applicable Loan Party Group and Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the Loan Documents. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters under the Loan Documents, and Agent and the other Lenders shall not have any obligation or liability to any such Participant. A Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.8 in the same manner as if the Participant acquired its interest by assignment, provided the Participant complies with the requirements of Section 5.9 as if it were a Lender. Each Lender selling a participation to a Participant shall keep a register, as agent for the Borrowers, meeting the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 5f.103-1(c), of each such participation, specifying such Participant’s entitlement to payments of principal, interest and other amounts with respect to such participation. For the avoidance of doubt, Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a participant register.

13.2.2 Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Documents other than that which forgives principal, interest or fees, reduces the stated interest rate or fees payable with respect to the applicable Loan or Facility Commitment in which such Participant has an interest, postpones the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date or U.S./European Facility Revolver Commitment Termination Date, as applicable, or any date fixed

139

for any regularly scheduled payment of principal, interest or fees on such Loan or Commitment in which such Participant has an interest, or releases the applicable Borrower, or all or substantially all of the benefits of the applicable Guarantee, or all or substantially all of the applicable ABL Priority Collateral.

13.2.3 Benefit of Set-Off. The Loan Parties agree that each Participant shall have a right of set-off in respect of its participating interest to the same extent as if such interest were owing directly to a Lender, and each Lender shall also retain the right of set-off with respect to any participating interests sold by it. By exercising any right of set-off, a Participant agrees to share with Lenders all amounts received through its set-off, in accordance with Section 12.5 as if such Participant were a Lender.

13.3 Assignments.

13.3.1 Permitted Assignments. A Lender may assign to an Eligible Assignee any of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, as long as (a) each assignment is of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of the transferor Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents and, in the case of a partial assignment, is in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Agent and Loan Party Agent, each in its discretion) and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount; (b) except in the case of an assignment in whole of a Lender’s rights and obligations, the aggregate amount of the Commitments retained by the transferor Lender is at least $5,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Agent and Loan Party Agent, each in its discretion); (c) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to Agent, for its acceptance and recording, an Assignment and Acceptance; and (d) the transferee Lender shall have executed a joinder to the Reallocation Agreement in form and substance acceptable to Agent. Nothing herein shall limit the right of a Lender to pledge or assign any rights under the Loan Documents to (i) any Federal Reserve Bank or the United States Treasury as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank, or (ii) counterparties to swap agreements relating to any Loans; provided, however, (i) such Lender shall remain the holder of its Loans and owner of its interest in any Letter of Credit for all purposes hereunder, (ii) the Borrowers, Agent, the other Lenders and Issuing Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (iii) any payment by the Loan Parties to the assigning Lender in respect of any Obligations assigned as described in this sentence shall satisfy the Loan Parties’ obligations hereunder to the extent of such payment, and no such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall limit the right of a Lender to pledge or assign any rights under the Loan Documents to another Lender following an acceleration of Loans and termination of Commitments pursuant to Section 11.2 in connection with implementation of the Reallocation Agreement following a Designation Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, assignment of Loans or LC Obligations with respect to the European Borrower permitted under this Section 13.3.1 to any Person shall at all times exceed €100,000 (or its equivalent in another currency).

13.3.2 Register. Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the

140

Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

13.3.3 Effect; Effective Date. Upon delivery to Agent of an assignment notice in the form of Exhibit E and a processing fee of $3,500 (unless otherwise agreed by Agent in its discretion), the assignment shall become effective as specified in the notice, if it complies with this Section 13.3. From such effective date, the Eligible Assignee shall for all purposes be a Lender under the Loan Documents, and shall have all rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder. Upon consummation of an assignment, the transferor Lender, Agent and the Loan Parties shall upon request by the transferring or transferee Lender make appropriate arrangements for issuance of replacement and/or new Notes, as applicable. The transferee Lender shall comply with Section 5.9 and deliver, upon request, an administrative questionnaire satisfactory to Agent.

13.3.4 Certain Assignees. No assignment or participation may be made to a Borrower, Affiliate of a Borrower, Defaulting Lender or natural person. Any assignment by a Defaulting Lender shall be effective only upon payment by the Eligible Assignee or Defaulting Lender to Agent of an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution (through direct payment, purchases of participations or other compensating actions as Agent deems appropriate), to satisfy all funding and payment liabilities then owing by the Defaulting Lender hereunder. If an assignment by a Defaulting Lender shall become effective under Applicable Law for any reason without compliance with the foregoing sentence, then the assignee shall be deemed a Defaulting Lender for all purposes until such compliance occurs.

SECTION 14. MISCELLANEOUS

14.1 Consents, Amendments and Waivers.

14.1.1 Amendment. No modification of any Loan Document, including any extension or amendment of a Loan Document or any waiver of a Default or Event of Default, shall be effective without the prior written agreement of Agent (with the consent of Required Lenders) and each Loan Party party to such Loan Document; provided, however, that:

(a) without the prior written consent of Agent, no modification shall be effective with respect to any provision in a Loan Document that relates to any rights, duties or discretion of Agent;

(c) without the prior written consent of each affected Lender, including a Defaulting Lender, no modification shall be effective that would (i) increase the Facility Commitment of such Lender; (ii) reduce the amount of, or waive or delay payment of, any principal, interest or fees payable to such Lender (except as provided in Section 4.2); (iii) increase the aggregate amount of all Commitments (except as set forth in Section 2.1.4) or (iv) extend the U.S./European Revolver Commitment Termination Date, the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date or Facility Termination Date;

141

(e) without the prior written consent of the Supermajority Required Facility Lenders having Commitments to a Borrower (except a Defaulting Lender as and to the extent provided in Section 4.2), no amendment or waiver shall be effective that would (x) with respect to Lenders having Facility Commitments to the Canadian Borrower, amend the definition of Canadian Borrowing Base (or, for purposes of such definition, any defined term used in such definition) or (y) with respect to Lenders having Facility Commitments to the U.S. Borrower and European Borrower, amend the definition of U.S. Borrowing Base or the Maximum European Subline Amount (or, for purposes of each such definition, any defined term used in such definition);

(f) without the prior written consent of all Lenders having Commitments to a Borrower (except a Defaulting Lender as and to the extent provided in Section 4.2), no amendment or waiver shall be effective that would (x) with respect to Lenders having Facility Commitments to the Canadian Borrower, (i) increase the advance rates applicable to the Canadian Borrower, (ii) release all or substantially all of the Canadian Facility Collateral, except as currently contemplated by Section 12.2.1, or (iii) release any Canadian Facility Loan Party from liability for any Canadian Facility Obligations, except as currently contemplated by Section 12.2.1; or (y) with respect to Lenders having Facility Commitments to the U.S. Borrower and the European Borrower, (i) increase the advance rates applicable to the U.S. Borrower or the European Borrower, (ii) release all or substantially all of the U.S./European Facility Collateral, except as currently contemplated by Section 12.2.1, or (iii) release any U.S./European Facility Loan Party from liability for any U.S./European Facility Obligations, except as currently contemplated by Section 12.2.1; and

(g) without the prior written consent of a Secured Bank Product Provider, no modification shall be effective that affects its relative payment priority under Section 5.5.1.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the execution and delivery of all documentation required by Section 10.2.1(l) to be delivered in connection with the incurrence by any Loan Party of any Permitted Senior Secured Debt, upon Agent’s request, the Loan Parties and Agent shall enter into an amendment hereof, and, to the extent deemed necessary by Agent, any other applicable Loan Documents, solely for the purpose of reflecting any Liens granted in favor of Agent or any Permitted Senior Secured Debt Collateral Agent in connection with any such transaction and to make changes incidental thereto. By their execution hereof, each Lender expressly authorizes and approves Agent’s entry into such amendments.

Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, it is understood and agreed that (x) Agent and the Loan Party Agent may amend or modify this Agreement and any other Loan Document to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency therein and (y) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended and converted into an accounts receivables facility with the prior written agreement of Agent (with the consent of Required Lenders) and each Loan Party party hereto.

142

14.1.2 Limitations. The agreement of the Loan Parties shall not be necessary to the effectiveness of any modification of a Loan Document that deals solely with the rights and duties of Lenders, Agent and/or Issuing Banks as among themselves. Only the consent of the parties to any Collateral Access Agreement, Deposit Account Control Agreement or any agreement relating to fees or a Bank Product shall be required for modification of such agreement, and no Bank Product provider (in such capacity) shall have any right to consent to modification of any Loan Document other than its Bank Product agreement. The making of any Loans during the existence of a Default or Event of Default shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of such Default or Event of Default, nor to establish a course of dealing. Any waiver or consent granted by Agent or Lenders hereunder shall be effective only if in writing, and then only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it is given.

14.1.3 Payment for Consents. No Loan Party will, directly or indirectly, pay any remuneration or other thing of value, whether by way of additional interest, fee or otherwise, to any Lender (in its capacity as a Lender hereunder) as consideration for agreement by such Lender with any modification of any Loan Documents, unless such remuneration or value is concurrently paid, on the same terms, on a Pro Rata basis to all Lenders providing their consent.

14.2 Indemnity. EACH LOAN PARTY SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE INDEMNITEES AGAINST ANY CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE, INCLUDING CLAIMS ASSERTED BY ANY LOAN PARTY OR OTHER PERSON OR ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF AN INDEMNITEE; provided that, in no event shall any Loan Party have any obligation hereunder to indemnify or hold harmless an Indemnitee with respect to a Claim that is determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to result from its actual gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the case of an investigation, litigation or proceeding to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Loan Parties, their equity holders or creditors, a third party or an Indemnitee and whether or not an Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and, except for losses determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to result from an Indemnitee’s actual gross negligence or willful misconduct.

14.3 Notices and Communications.

14.3.1 Notice Address. Subject to Section 4.1.4, all notices and other communications by or to a party hereto shall be in writing and shall be given to any Loan Party, at Loan Party Agent’s address shown on the signature pages hereof, and to any other Person at its address shown on the signature pages hereof (or, in the case of a Person who becomes a Lender after the Restatement Date, at the address shown on its Assignment and Acceptance), or at such other address as a party may hereafter specify by notice in accordance with this Section 14.3. Each such notice or other communication shall be effective only (a) if given by facsimile transmission, when transmitted to the applicable facsimile number, if confirmation of receipt is received; (b) if given by mail, three (3) Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mail (or, in the case of a Canadian Domiciled Loan Party, the Canadian mail system, or, in the case of the European Borrower, the Netherlands mail system), with first-class postage pre-paid, addressed to

143

the applicable address; (c) if given by personal delivery, when duly delivered to the notice address with receipt acknowledged of (d) if given by electronic mail or any other telecommunications device, when transmitted to an electronic mail address (or by another means of electronic delivery). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice to Agent pursuant to Section 2.1.4, 2.2, 2.3, 3.1.2, 3.1.3 or 4.1.1 shall be effective until actually received by the individual or department to whose attention at Agent such notice is required to be sent. Any written notice or other communication that is not sent in conformity with the foregoing provisions shall nevertheless be effective on the date actually received by the noticed party. Any notice received by Loan Party Agent shall be deemed received by all Loan Parties.

14.3.2 Electronic Communications; Voice Mail. Electronic mail and internet websites may be used only for routine communications, such as delivery of Borrower Materials, administrative matters, distribution of Loan Documents, and matters permitted under Section 4.1.4. Agent and Lenders make no assurances as to the privacy and security of electronic communications. Electronic communication and voice mail may not be used as effective notice under the Loan Documents.

14.3.3 Platform. Borrower Materials shall be delivered pursuant to procedures approved by Agent, including electronic delivery (if possible) upon request by Agent to an electronic system maintained by Agent (“Platform”). Borrowers shall notify Agent of each posting of Borrower Materials on the Platform and the materials shall be deemed received by Agent only upon its receipt of such notice. Borrower Materials and other information relating to this credit facility may be made available to Lenders on the Platform. The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” Agent does not warrant the accuracy or completeness of any information on the Platform nor the adequacy or functioning of the Platform, and expressly disclaims liability for any errors or omissions in the Borrower Materials or any issues involving the Platform. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS, OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY AGENT WITH RESPECT TO BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. Lenders acknowledge that Borrower Materials may include material non-public information of Loan Parties and should not be made available to any personnel who do not wish to receive such information or who may be engaged in investment or other market-related activities with respect to any Loan Party’s securities. No Agent Indemnitee shall have any liability to Borrowers, Lenders or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) relating to use by any Person of the Platform or delivery of Borrower Materials and other information through the Platform.

14.3.4 Non-Conforming Communications. Agent and Lenders may rely upon any communications purportedly given by or on behalf of any Loan Party even if they were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not confirmed, or if the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from a later confirmation. Each Loan Party shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from any liabilities, losses, costs and expenses arising from any non-conforming communication (including telephonic and electronic communications) purportedly given by or on behalf of a Loan Party.

144

14.4 Performance of the Loan Parties’ Obligations. Agent may, in its discretion at any time and from time to time, at the expense of the Loan Parties of the applicable Loan Party Group, pay any amount or do any act required of a Loan Party under any Loan Documents to (a) enforce any Loan Documents or collect any Obligations; (b) protect, insure, maintain or realize upon any Collateral; or (c) defend or maintain the validity or priority of Agent’s Liens in any Collateral, including any payment of a judgment, insurance premium, warehouse charge, finishing or processing charge, or landlord claim, or any discharge of a Lien. All payments, costs and expenses (including Extraordinary Expenses) of Agent under this Section 14.4 shall be reimbursed to Agent by the Loan Parties, on demand, with interest from the date incurred to the date of payment thereof at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. Any payment made or action taken by Agent under this Section 14.4 shall be without prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default or to exercise any other rights or remedies under the Loan Documents.

14.5 Credit Inquiries. Agent and Lenders may (but shall have no obligation) to respond to usual and customary credit inquiries from third parties concerning any Loan Party or Subsidiary.

14.6 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of the Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such manner as to be valid under Applicable Law. If any provision is found to be invalid under Applicable Law, it shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity and the remaining provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect.

14.7 Cumulative Effect; Conflict of Terms. The provisions of the Loan Documents are cumulative. The parties acknowledge that the Loan Documents may use several limitations, tests or measurements to regulate similar matters, and they agree that these are cumulative and that each must be performed as provided. Except as otherwise provided in another Loan Document (by specific reference to the applicable provision of this Agreement), if any provision contained herein is in direct conflict with any provision in another Loan Document, the provision herein shall govern and control.

14.8 Counterparts. Any Loan Document may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement shall become effective when Agent has received counterparts bearing the signatures of all parties hereto. Delivery of a signature page of any Loan Document by telecopy or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of such agreement. Any electronic signature, contract formation on an electronic platform and electronic record-keeping shall have the same legal validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based recordkeeping system to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any similar state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

14.9 Entire Agreement. Time is of the essence with respect to all Loan Documents and Obligations. The Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior understandings and agreements, among the parties relating to the subject matter thereof.

14.10 Relationship with Lenders. The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitments of any other Lender. Amounts payable hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt. It shall not be necessary for Agent or any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purposes. Nothing in this Agreement and no action of Agent, Lenders or any other Secured Party pursuant to the Loan Documents or otherwise shall be deemed to constitute Agent and any Secured Party to be a partnership, joint venture or similar arrangement, nor to constitute control of any Loan Party.

145

14.11 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated by any Loan Document, the Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (a)(i) this credit facility and any related arranging or other services by Agent, any Lender, any of their Affiliates or any arranger are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Loan Parties and such Person; (ii) the Loan Parties have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they have deemed appropriate; and (iii) the Loan Parties are capable of evaluating, and understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; (b) each of Agent, Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Loan Parties, any of their Affiliates or any other Person (except as expressly set forth in Section 13.3.2), and has no obligation with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents except as expressly set forth therein; and (c) Agent, Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates, and have no obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Loan Parties or their Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Loan Party hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against Agent, Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger with respect to any breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any transaction contemplated by a Loan Document.

14.12 Confidentiality. Each of Agent, Lenders and Issuing Banks shall maintain the confidentiality of all Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates, and to its and their partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (provided such Persons are informed of the confidential nature of the Information and instructed to keep it confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it or its Affiliates; (c) to the extent required by Applicable Law or by any subpoena or other legal process; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with any action or proceeding relating to any Loan Documents or Obligations; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as this Section 14.12, to any Transferee or any actual or prospective party (or its advisors) to any Bank Product; (g) with the consent of Loan Party Agent; or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 14.12 or (ii) is available to Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any of their Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Loan Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent and Lenders may publish or disseminate general information concerning this credit facility for league table, tombstone and advertising purposes, and may use the Loan Parties’ logos, trademarks or product photographs in advertising materials. As used herein, “Information” means all information received from a Loan Party or Subsidiary relating to it or its business that is identified as confidential when delivered. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information pursuant to this Section 14.12 shall be deemed to have complied if it exercises a degree of care similar to that which it accords its own confidential information. Each of Agent, Lenders and Issuing Banks acknowledges that (i) Information may include material non-public information; (ii) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information; and (iii) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with Applicable Law.

146

14.13 Certifications Regarding Senior Note Indenture and Holdings Note Indenture. Borrowers certify to Agent and Lenders that neither the execution or performance of the Loan Documents nor the incurrence of any Obligations by Borrowers violates the Senior Note Indenture or the Holdings Note Indenture.

14.14 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES (BUT GIVING EFFECT TO FEDERAL LAWS RELATING TO NATIONAL BANKS).

14.15 Consent to Forum.

14.15.1 Forum. EACH LOAN PARTY HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT SITTING IN OR WITH JURISDICTION OVER THE STATE OF NEW YORK, IN ANY PROCEEDING OR DISPUTE RELATING IN ANY WAY TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH PROCEEDING SHALL BE BROUGHT BY IT SOLELY IN ANY SUCH COURT. EACH LOAN PARTY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL CLAIMS, OBJECTIONS AND DEFENSES THAT IT MAY HAVE REGARDING SUCH COURT’S PERSONAL OR SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION, VENUE OR INCONVENIENT FORUM. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 14.3.1. Nothing herein shall limit the right of Agent or any Lender to bring proceedings against any Loan Party in any other court, nor limit the right of any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to preclude enforcement by Agent of any judgment or order obtained in any forum or jurisdiction.

14.16 Waivers by the Loan Parties. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Loan Party waives (a) the right to trial by jury (which Agent and each Lender hereby also waives) in any proceeding or dispute of any kind relating in any way to any Loan Documents, Obligations or Collateral; (b) presentment, demand, protest, notice of presentment, default, non-payment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper and guarantees at any time held by Agent on which a Loan Party may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies anything Agent may do in this regard; (c) notice prior to taking possession or control of any Collateral; (d) any bond or security that might be required by a court prior to allowing Agent to exercise any rights or remedies; (e) the benefit of all valuation, appraisement and exemption laws; (f) any claim against Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) in any way relating to any Enforcement Action, Obligations, Loan Documents or transactions relating thereto; and (g) notice of acceptance hereof. Each Loan Party acknowledges that the foregoing waivers are a material inducement to Agent, Issuing Banks and Lenders entering into this Agreement and that they are relying upon the foregoing in their dealings with the Loan Parties. Each Loan Party has reviewed the foregoing waivers with its legal counsel and has knowingly and voluntarily waived its jury trial and other rights following consultation with legal counsel. In the event of litigation, this Agreement may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court.

147

14.17 Patriot Act Notice. Agent and Lenders hereby notify the Loan Parties that pursuant to the Patriot Act, the Proceeds of Crime Act and other applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist financing, government sanction and “know your client” policies, regulations, laws or rules (the Proceeds of Crime Act and such other applicable policies, regulations, laws or rules, collectively, including any guidelines or orders thereunder, “AML Legislation”), Agent and Lenders are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, including its legal name, address, tax ID number and other information that will allow Agent and Lenders to identify it in accordance with the Patriot Act and the AML Legislation. Agent and Lenders will also require information regarding each personal guarantor, if any, and may require information regarding the Loan Parties’ management and owners, such as legal name, address, social security number and date of birth. Each Loan Party shall promptly provide all such information, including supporting documentation and other evidence, as may be reasonably requested by any Lender or any prospective assignee or participant of a Lender, in order to comply with the Patriot Act and/or the applicable AML Legislation, whether now or hereafter in existence. Loan Parties shall, promptly upon request, provide all documentation and other information as Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender may request from time to time in order to comply with any obligations under any “know your customer,” anti-money laundering or other requirements of Applicable Law.

14.18 Canadian Anti-Money Laundering Legislation.

(a) If Agent has ascertained the identity of any Canadian Facility Loan Party or any authorized signatories of any Canadian Facility Loan Party for the purposes of applicable AML Legislation, then Agent:

(i) shall be deemed to have done so as an agent for each Canadian Lender, and this Agreement shall constitute a “written agreement” in such regard between each Canadian Lender and Agent within the meaning of the applicable AML Legislation; and

(ii) shall provide to each Canadian Lender copies of all information obtained in such regard without any representation or warranty as to its accuracy or completeness.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence and except as may otherwise be agreed in writing, each Canadian Lender agrees that Agent has no obligation to ascertain the identity of the Canadian Loan Parties or any authorized signatories of the Canadian Loan Parties on behalf of any Canadian Lender, or to confirm the completeness or accuracy of any information it obtains from any Canadian Facility Loan Party or any such authorized signatory in doing so.

14.19 Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Loan Party for liquidation or reorganization, should any Loan Party become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of such Loan Party’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 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 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 returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

148

14.20 Nonliability of Lenders. Neither Agent, any Issuing Bank nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to any Loan Party to review or inform any Loan Party of any matter in connection with any phase of any Loan Party’s business or operations. Each Loan Party agrees, on behalf of itself and each other Loan Party, that neither Agent, any Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall have liability to any Loan Party (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by any Loan Party in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such losses resulted from the actual gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party from which recovery is sought. NO LENDER SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES ARISING FROM THE USE BY OTHERS OF ANY INFORMATION OR OTHER MATERIALS OBTAINED THROUGH INTRALINKS OR OTHER SIMILAR INFORMATION TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT.

14.21 PERMITTED SENIOR SECURED DEBT INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. REFERENCE IS MADE TO THE PERMITTED SENIOR SECURED DEBT INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT (TO THE EXTENT SUCH AGREEMENT IS IN EFFECT). EACH LENDER HEREUNDER (A) CONSENTS TO THE SUBORDINATION OF LIENS PROVIDED FOR IN THE PERMITTED SENIOR SECURED DEBT INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT (TO THE EXTENT SUCH AGREEMENT IS IN EFFECT), (B) AGREES THAT, FROM AND AFTER THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THE PERMITTED SENIOR SECURED DEBT INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT (TO THE EXTENT SUCH AGREEMENT IS IN EFFECT) BY AGENT AND THE OTHER PERSONS PARTY THERETO, IT WILL BE BOUND BY AND WILL TAKE NO ACTIONS CONTRARY TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE PERMITTED SENIOR SECURED DEBT INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT (TO THE EXTENT SUCH AGREEMENT IS IN EFFECT), (C) AUTHORIZES AND INSTRUCTS AGENT TO ENTER INTO THE PERMITTED SENIOR SECURED DEBT INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT (TO THE EXTENT SUCH AGREEMENT IS IN EFFECT) AS COLLATERAL AGENT AND ON BEHALF OF SUCH LENDER AND (D) AUTHORIZES AND INSTRUCTS AGENT TO ENTER INTO SUCH JOINDER AGREEMENTS AND MODIFICATIONS TO THE PERMITTED SENIOR SECURED DEBT INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT (TO THE EXTENT SUCH AGREEMENT IS IN EFFECT) AS MAY BE CONTEMPLATED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE PERMITTED SENIOR SECURED DEBT INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT (TO THE EXTENT SUCH AGREEMENT IS IN EFFECT).

14.22 Amendment and Restatement.

(a) On the Restatement Date, the Existing Loan Agreement shall be amended, restated and superseded in its entirety. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (a) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents executed and delivered in connection herewith do not constitute a novation, payment and reborrowing, or termination of the Obligations under the Existing Loan Agreement as in effect prior to the Restatement Date and (b) such Obligations are in all respects continuing with only the terms thereof being modified as provided in this Agreement.

149

(b) Notwithstanding the modifications effected by this Agreement of the representations, warranties and covenants of the Loan Parties contained in the Existing Loan Agreement, the Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (1) any causes of action or other rights created prior to the Restatement Date in favor of any Lender and its successors arising out of the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties contained in or delivered (including representations and warranties delivered in connection with the making of the loans or other extensions of credit thereunder) in connection with the Existing Loan Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement; provided, however, that it is understood and agreed that the Borrowers’ monetary obligations under the Existing Loan Agreement in respect of the loans and letters of credit thereunder are evidenced by this Agreement as provided herein and (2) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on the Restatement Date shall not impair the validity, effectiveness or priority of the Liens granted pursuant to the Security Documents on the Original Closing Date, and such Liens shall continue unimpaired with the same priority to secure the applicable Obligations.

(c) All indemnification obligations of the Loan Parties pursuant to the Existing Loan Agreement (including any arising from a breach of the representations thereunder) shall survive the amendment and restatement of the Existing Loan Agreement pursuant to this Agreement.
