On May 16, 2022, Refinitiv Benchmark Services (UK) Limited ("RBSL"), the administrator of CDOR, announced in a public statement that the calculation and publication of all tenors of CDOR will permanently cease immediately following a final publication on Friday, June 28, 2024. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, on the date that all Available Tenors of CDOR have either permanently or indefinitely ceased to be provided by RBSL, if the then-current Benchmark is CDOR, the Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Compounded XXXXX, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.

(ii)

Replacing Future Benchmarks. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. At any time that the administrator of the then-current Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to provide such Benchmark or such Benchmark has been announced by the administrator or the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored, the Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Loans to be made, converted or continued that would bear interest by reference to such Benchmark until the Borrower's receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Benchmark.

(iii)

Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation and administration of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(iv)

Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (ii) any occurrence of a Term XXXXX Transition Event, and (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 1.04, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 1.04.

(v)

Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term XXXXX or CDOR), then (i) the Administrative Agent may remove any tenor of such Benchmark that is unavailable or non-representative for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings and (ii) the Administrative Agent may reinstate any such previously removed tenor for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings.

(vi)

Secondary Term XXXXX Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this clause, if a Term XXXXX Transition Event and its related Term XXXXX Transition Date have occurred, then on and after such Term XXXXX Transition Date (i) the Benchmark Replacement described in clause (a)(i) of such definition will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and (ii) each Loan outstanding on the Term XXXXX Transition Date bearing interest based on the then-current Benchmark shall convert, at the start of the next interest payment period, into a Loan bearing interest at the Benchmark Replacement described in clause (a)(i) of such definition having a tenor approximately the same length as the interest payment period applicable to such Loan immediately prior to the conversion or such other Available Tenor as may be selected by the Borrower and agreed by the Administrative Agent; provided that, this clause (vi) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term XXXXX Notice, and so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date of the Term XXXXX Notice, written notice of objection to such conversion to Term XXXXX from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders or the Borrower.

"Daily Compounded XXXXX" means, for any day, XXXXX with interest accruing on a compounded daily basis, with the methodology and conventions for this rate (which will include compounding in arrears with a lookback) being established by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the methodology and conventions for this rate selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for determining compounded XXXXX for business loans; provided that if the Administrative Agent decides that any such convention is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent may establish another convention in its reasonable discretion; and provided that if the administrator has not provided or published XXXXX and a Benchmark Transition Event with respect to XXXXX has not occurred, then, in respect of any day for which XXXXX is required, references to XXXXX will be deemed to be references to the last provided or published XXXXX.

"Relevant Governmental Body" means the Bank of Canada, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the Bank of Canada, or any successor thereto.

"Term XXXXX" means, for the applicable corresponding tenor, the forward-looking term rate based on XXXXX that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body, and that is published by an authorized benchmark administrator and is displayed on a screen or other information service, as identified or selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion at approximately a time and as of a date prior to the commencement of an Interest Period determined by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion in a manner substantially consistent with market practice.

SECTION 2.04

USE OF PROCEEDS.

(a)

Advances shall be used solely to finance the acquisition of Eligible Receivables pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Sale and Servicing Agreement on and after the Closing Date.

(b)

Without in any way affecting the obligations of the Borrower, none of the Finance Parties are bound to monitor or verify the application of amounts raised by the Borrower under this Agreement.

SECTION 2.05

INTEREST

(a)

Prior to the Maturity Date, the outstanding balance of the Loans will bear interest at an annual rate (i) prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, equal to the Applicable Rate and (ii) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, equal to the Default Rate.

(b)

Upon receipt of such information from the Servicers pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Borrower will notify the Administrative Agent of its determination of the Applicable Rate in effect for any Collection Period, which will only take effect with the approval of the Administrative Agent of such rate. On the Business Day prior to each Reporting Date, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Servicers for inclusion in the Servicing Report of (i) that portion of the Interest Distribution Amount attributable to the Loans held by each Lender for the current Collection Period and any adjustment required to account for any difference between the Interest Distribution Amount for the prior Collection Period and such amounts as shown on the Servicing Report for the prior Collection Period, and (ii) the outstanding principal amount of the Loans held by each Lender.

(c)

Interest shall be payable in accordance with SECTION 2.03 until the Commitments are terminated and the Secured Obligations are paid in full. Interest as provided hereunder will be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

(d)

From and after the Maturity Date, or such earlier date as the Aggregate Exposure and other Secured Obligations become due and payable by acceleration or otherwise, or at the Administrative Agent's option upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Borrower hereby agrees to pay interest on the Aggregate Exposure and other Secured Obligations and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest with respect thereto, at the rate of the lesser of (i) the Applicable Rate and (ii) the highest lawful rate.

(e)

For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and disclosure thereunder, whenever any interest or any fee to be paid hereunder or in connection herewith is to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day or 365-day year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate used in such calculation is equivalent is the rate so used multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 360 or 365, as applicable. The rates of interest under this Agreement are nominal rates, and not effective rates or yields. The principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement. The Borrower acknowledges and confirms that: (a) this Agreement, and the constituent definitions herein and under the other documents relating to interest and other amounts payable hereunder and thereunder, satisfies the requirements of section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada) to the extent that section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada) applies to the expression, statement or calculation of any rate of interest or other rate per annum hereunder or under any other document; (b) the Borrower is able to calculate the yearly rate or percentage of interest payable under any document based on the methodology set out herein and under the other documents, and the constituent definitions herein and under the other documents relating to interest and other amounts payable hereunder and thereunder; and (c) it waives its right to object to the payment of interest hereunder on the basis of inadequate disclosure as required under section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada).

(f)

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

(i)

first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid to the affected Lender; and

(ii)

thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, costs, expenses, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to the affected Lender which would constitute interest for purposes of section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).

SECTION 2.06

ADVANCES.

(a)

The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing pursuant to a Borrowing Request not later than 3:00 PM (Toronto time) (i) if the amount of the requested advance exceeds $25,000,000, ten (10) Business Days; or (ii) if the amount of the requested advance is less than or equals $25,000,000, three (3) Business Days before each requested Advance, specifying the amount of the Advance to be made; provided that (A) the minimum amount the Borrower may specify in such request for an Advance is $250,000 and (B) no Borrowing Date shall be on the first Business Day in any calendar week. Such Borrowing Request shall be certified by a senior officer of the General Partner (or such other authorized Person as Borrower directs from time to time) of the Borrower.

(b)

The Administrative Agent shall give to each applicable Lender prompt notice on the date of the Administrative Agent's receipt of each Borrowing Request. On the date on which an Advance is requested to be made pursuant to the applicable Borrowing Request, each applicable Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent at the address of the Administrative Agent set forth in SECTION 8.01, in immediately available funds, its Applicable Percentage of such Advance requested to be made. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of Advance that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent its portion of the Advance to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender will make such amount available to the Administrative Agent as required above and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available the amount of the Advance to be provided by such Lender. Upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in SECTION 2.06(a) and SECTION 4.02 for such Advance, and as soon as practicable after receipt of funds from the Lenders, will make such funds as have been received from the Lenders available to the Borrower at the account specified by the Borrower in such Borrowing Request. In the event that any additional Lenders become party to this Agreement by way of an Assignment and Assumption, the parties hereto will negotiate in good faith with a paying agent to become a party to this Agreement and be responsible for payment and remittance functions currently undertaken by the Administrative Agent and to make any necessary amendments as required to this Agreement.

(c)

To administer the Loans in an efficient manner and to minimize the transfer of funds between the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the Lenders hereby instruct the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may (in its sole discretion, without any obligation) (i) make available, on behalf of the Lenders, the full amount of all Advances requested by the Borrower, without giving each Lender prior notice of the proposed Advance, of such Lender's Applicable Percentage thereof and the other matters covered by the Borrowing Request and (ii) if the Administrative Agent has made any such amounts available as provided in clause (i), upon repayment of the Loans by the Borrower, first apply such amounts repaid directly to the amounts made available by the Administrative Agent in accordance with clause (i) and not yet settled as described below. If the Administrative Agent makes an Advance on behalf of the Lenders, as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, the amount of outstanding Loans and each Lender's Applicable Percentage thereof shall be computed weekly rather than daily and shall be adjusted upward or downward on the basis of the amount of outstanding Loans as of 5:00 P.M. (Toronto time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of each computation; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent retains the absolute right at any time or from time to time to make the afore-described adjustments at intervals more frequent than weekly. On the Business Day prior to each Reporting Date, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender and holder of any Note a summary statement of the type and amount of outstanding Loans for such period (such week or lesser period or periods being hereafter referred to as a "Lender Reporting Period"). If the summary statement is sent by the Administrative Agent and received by the Lenders prior to 1:00 P.M. (Toronto time) on any Business Day each Lender shall make the transfers described in the next succeeding sentence no later than 3:00 P.M. (Toronto time) on the day such summary statement was sent; and if such summary statement is sent by the Administrative Agent and received by the Lenders after 1:00 P.M. (Toronto time) on any Business Day, each Lender shall make such transfers no later than 3:00 P.M. (Toronto time) no later than the next succeeding Business Day after such summary statement was sent. If in any Lender Reporting Period, the amount of a Lender's Applicable Percentage of the Loans is in excess of the amount of Loans actually funded by such Lender, such Lender shall forthwith (but in no event later than the time set forth in the next preceding sentence) transfer to the Administrative Agent by wire transfer in immediately available funds the amount of such excess; and, on the other hand, if the amount of a Lender's Applicable Percentage of the Loans in any Lender Reporting Period is less than the amount of Loans actually funded by such Lender, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith transfer to such Lender by wire transfer in immediately available funds the amount of such difference. The obligation of each Lender to transfer such funds shall be irrevocable and unconditional, without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent and made without setoff or deduction of any kind. The Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders agree to mark their respective books and records at the end of each Collection Period to show at all times the dollar amount of their respective Applicable Percentages of the outstanding Loans. Because the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders may be advancing and/or may be repaid Loans prior to the time when the Lenders will actually advance and/or be repaid Loans, interest with respect to Loans shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent to each Lender (including Administrative Agent) in accordance with the type and amount of Loans actually advanced by and repaid to each Lender (including the Administrative Agent) during each Collection Period and shall accrue from and including the date such Advance is made by the Administrative Agent to but excluding the date such Loans are repaid by the Borrower in accordance with SECTION 2.14 or actually settled by the applicable Lender as described in this SECTION 2.06(c). All such Advances made by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders hereunder shall bear interest at the applicable interest rate for such Advances.

(d)

If the amounts described in subsection (b) or (c) of this SECTION 2.06 are not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by a Lender (such Lender being hereinafter referred to in this SECTION 2.06 as a "Defaulting Lender") and the Administrative Agent has made such amount available to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Defaulting Lender. If such Defaulting Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent's demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Defaulting Lender and the Borrower, (i) interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to either (A) if paid by such Defaulting Lender, the overnight federal funds rate or (B) if paid by the Borrower, the Applicable Rate, calculated in accordance with SECTION 2.05, plus (ii) in each case, an amount equal to any costs (including reasonable legal expenses) and losses incurred as a result of the failure of such Defaulting Lender to provide such amount as provided in this Agreement. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder, including, without limitation, the right of the Borrower to seek reimbursement from any Defaulting Lender for any amounts paid by the Borrower under clause (ii) above on account of such Defaulting Xxxxxx's default.

(e)

The failure of any Lender to make its portion of the Advance to be made by it as part of any Advance shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Advance. The amounts payable by each Lender shall be a separate and independent obligation.

(f)

Each Lender shall be entitled to earn interest at the Applicable Rate, calculated in accordance with SECTION 2.05, on outstanding Loans which it has funded to the Administrative Agent from the date such Lender funded such Advance to, but excluding, the date on which such Lender is repaid with respect to the Loan.

(g)

The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to any Defaulting Lender any payments made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the Defaulting Xxxxxx's benefit; nor will a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any payments hereunder. Amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender shall instead be paid to or retained by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may hold and, in its discretion, re-lend to a Borrower the amount of all such payments received or retained by it for the account of such Defaulting Lender. Any amounts so re-lent to the Borrower shall earn interest at the Applicable Rate hereunder and for all other purposes of this Agreement shall be treated as if they were Advances; provided, however, that for purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents and determining Applicable Percentages, such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a "Lender", and each of such Defaulting Lender's Commitment and the unpaid principal balance of the Advances owing to such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to be zero (-0-). Until a Defaulting Lender cures its failure to fund its pro rata share of any Advance, such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to any portion of the Unused Additional Interest payable pursuant to SECTION 2.09(a). This SECTION 2.06(g) shall remain effective with respect to such Lender until such time as the Defaulting Lender shall no longer be in default of any of its obligations under this Agreement. The terms of this SECTION 2.06(g) shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitment of any Lender, or relieve or excuse the performance by Borrower of its duties and obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents. Nothing contained in this SECTION 2.06 or otherwise in this Agreement shall impair or limit any claim of the Borrower against a Defaulting Lender (including, without limitation, expenses incurred by the Borrower by reason of any such default) who breaches its commitment to fund Advances hereunder.

(h)

Each request for an Advance pursuant to this SECTION 2.06 shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.

SECTION 2.07

Increased Commitments.

(a)

The Borrower shall have the right to request an increase to the Commitments by obtaining additional Commitments, from one or more of the Lenders provided that (i) any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of [* * * * *], (ii) after giving effect thereto, the sum of the total of the Commitments does not exceed [* * * * *], and (iii) the procedure described in SECTION 2.07(b) have been satisfied. Nothing contained in this SECTION 2.07 shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment on the part of any Lender to increase its Commitment hereunder at any time. For greater certainty, any such increase request made by the Borrower may be accepted or rejected at the sole discretion of each Lender.

(b)

Any amendment hereto for such an increase or addition shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and shall require the written signatures of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and each Lender agreeing to an increase in their Commitment. As a condition precedent to such an increase or addition, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (i) a certificate signed by its authorized officer (A) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by it approving or consenting to such increase, and (B) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase or addition, (1) the representations and warranties contained in Article 3 and the other Loan Documents are true and correct, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and (2) no Default exists, (ii) legal opinions and documents consistent with those delivered on the Effective Date, to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent and (iii) each guarantor that has provided a Guarantee, of any type, in connection with the Secured Obligations for the benefit of the Secured Parties will confirm, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, that its Guarantee and any related security will continue to apply after giving effect to such increase or addition to the Commitments made pursuant to this Section 2.07.

(c)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.07, the Administrative Agent may at any time during the 90 day period following the occurrence of a Right to Increase Trigger Event, provide written notice to the Borrower that the Maximum Principal Amount and Commitments shall be increased in one or more incremental amounts of [* * * * *] (the "Right to Increase") to an amount not to exceed, in aggregate with the initial Commitments hereunder, a total amount of [* * * * *]. Such notice shall also indicate the effective date of such increase which shall be a date occurring at least 5 Business Days following the date of such notice (the "Right to Increase Effective Date"). In addition, on or before the Right to Increase Effective Date, the Borrower will deliver to the Administrative Agent the items set out in Section 2.07(b). If the Right to Increase is exercised by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent will, in its sole discretion, increase or adjust the Commitment of any Lender subject to such Lender agreeing to such increase or adjustment.

(d)

On the effective date of any such increase or addition, (i) any Lender increasing its Commitment shall make available to the Administrative Agent such amounts in immediately available funds as the Administrative Agent shall determine, for the benefit of the other Lenders, as being required in order to cause, after giving effect to such increase or addition and the use of such amounts to make payments to such other Lenders, each Lender's portion of the outstanding Loans of all the Lenders to equal its revised Applicable Percentage of such outstanding Loans, and the Administrative Agent shall make such other adjustments among the Lenders with respect to the Loans then outstanding and amounts of principal, interest, commitment fees and other amounts paid or payable with respect thereto as shall be necessary, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, in order to effect such reallocation and (ii) the Borrower shall be deemed to have repaid and reborrowed all outstanding Loans as of the date of any increase (or addition) in the Commitments. The deemed payments made pursuant to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be accompanied by payment of all accrued interest on the amount prepaid. Within a reasonable time after the effective date of any increase or addition, the Administrative Agent shall, and is hereby authorized and directed to, revise the Commitment Schedule to reflect such increase or addition and shall distribute such revised Commitment Schedule to each of the Lenders and the Borrower, whereupon such revised Commitment Schedule shall replace the old Commitment Schedule and become part of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.08

commitment REDUCTIONS AND PREPAYMENTS.

(a)

Voluntary Commitment Reductions. The Borrower may elect to terminate the Commitments in whole (but not in part) so long as (A) the Borrower provides the Administrative Agent with at least sixty (60) days prior written notice which shall be irrevocable (but may be conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit or debt facilities or other refinancing arrangements or other conditions), and (B) the Borrower promptly (and in any event, within three (3) Business Days) pays to the Administrative Agent the Exit Additional Interest due on the terminated Commitments and all other Secured Obligations payable on such date.

(b)

Voluntary Prepayments.

(i)

On any Monthly Settlement Date, the Borrower may voluntarily prepay the outstanding Aggregate Exposure in whole or in part (including in connection with a Securitization Transaction in accordance with the terms of SECTION 5.40), in accordance with SECTION 2.03, by delivering a Repayment Notice to the Finance Parties on the Reporting Date as part of the Servicing Report; on any other Business Day, the Borrower may voluntarily prepay the outstanding Aggregate Exposure in whole or in part in connection with a Securitization Transaction in accordance with the terms of SECTION 5.40 by delivering a Repayment Notice to the Finance Parties, in which case the Financing Transaction Prepayment Amount and any other Available Amounts shall be applied on such Business Day in accordance with SECTION 2.03 as if such date was a Weekly Settlement Date (but not a Monthly Settlement Date).

(ii)

Any prepayment of Loans shall not reduce a Lenders' Commitments under this Agreement and may be reborrowed, subject to the terms and conditions hereof for borrowing under the Loan.

(iii)

For the avoidance of doubt, any voluntary prepayments under this SECTION 2.08(b) (A) will be free of any Exit Additional Interest due on the terminated Commitments, and (B) will be applied at the time and in the manner set forth in SECTION 2.03.

(iv)

Mandatory Prepayments. In the event that amounts outstanding hereunder at any time exceed the Borrowing Base (whether established by a Borrowing Request, a Borrowing Base Certificate or otherwise), within three (3) Business Days of the time that a Borrowing Base calculation was delivered or required to be delivered, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent without demand or notice of any kind required, unless waived in writing by the Administrative Agent, the amount by which the Borrower's indebtedness hereunder exceeds the Borrowing Base then applicable, together with all accrued interest on the amount so paid and any fees and costs incurred in connection therewith. For the avoidance of doubt, any mandatory prepayment pursuant to this SECTION 2.08(b)(iv) shall not be subject to the Exit Additional Interest due on the terminated Commitments. Notwithstanding SECTION 2.03, any such payment shall be applied, to the extent of such payment, to the Loan until its Aggregate Exposure is reduced to zero; provided that any such mandatory prepayment of Loans shall not reduce a Lenders' Commitments under this Agreement and may be reborrowed, subject to the terms and conditions hereof for borrowing under the Loan.

SECTION 2.09

FEES.

In consideration of each Lender's Commitments, the Borrower will pay to the Lenders (in accordance with their Applicable Percentage) (other than the fee described in (d) which is solely for the account of the Administrative Agent and shall not be distributed to the Lenders) the fees in the amounts and at the times set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and in any other agreements between the Borrower and the Lenders from time to time, as applicable, including:

(a)

Unused Additional Interest. On each Monthly Settlement Date, a fee in an amount of (i) the Unused Additional Interest Rate, multiplied by (ii) the average daily unused Commitments, computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and the actual number of days elapsed;

(b)

Minimum Utilization Additional Interest. On each Monthly Settlement Date, minimum utilization interest ("Minimum Utilization Additional Interest"), if any, in an amount equal to (i) the average Daily Minimum Utilization Shortfall Amount since (and including) the immediately prior Monthly Settlement Date (but excluding the current Monthly Settlement Date) multiplied by (ii) the Applicable Rate divided by (iii) 360 multiplied by (iv) the number of days that have elapsed since (and including) the immediately prior Monthly Settlement Date (but excluding the current Monthly Settlement Date);

(c)

Original Issue Discount. On the Closing Date and following any increase in the aggregate Commitments after the Closing Date, the funded amount of (i) the initial Advance hereunder and (ii) the first Advance following any such increase of the aggregate Commitments, as applicable, shall be reduced by an amount equal to Original Issue Discount Rate multiplied by (x) in the case of the initial Advance hereunder, the Commitments or (y) in the case of any increase in the aggregate Commitments after the Closing Date, the amount by which the aggregate Commitments were increased (the "Original Issue Discount Amount"), which Original Issue Discount Amount shall be retained by the Lenders providing the initial Advance or such first Advance following any increase in the aggregate Commitments; provided that, for clarity, the Borrower shall remain liable to pay the full principal amount of such Advance (inclusive of such Original Issue Discount Amount) notwithstanding the deduction of the Original Issue Discount Amount; and

(d)

Administrative Agent Fee. Commencing on the Closing Date and in advance on a quarterly basis thereafter, a fee in an amount equal to the Administrative Agent Fee Amount.

SECTION 2.10

Controlled Accounts.

The Borrower shall have caused to be established and maintained, a deposit account with the Transaction Account Bank, in the name of the Borrower, designated as the "Transaction Account", as to which the Administrative Agent shall obtain control, for the benefit of the Lenders, within 30 days of the Closing Date pursuant to the Transaction Account Blocked Account Agreement. Each Credit Party, as applicable, shall enter into the Transaction Account Blocked Account Agreement and a Control Agreement in respect of each other deposit or securities account maintained by such Credit Party within 30 days of the Closing Date or, in respect of deposit or securities accounts established after the Closing Date, within 30 days of such establishment, in each case in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably.

SECTION 2.11

Hedging PROCEEDS.

All amounts paid by the counterparty under any Interest Rate Cap to the Borrower or to the Administrative Agent (for the avoidance of doubt, including any payments upon a termination of any Interest Rate Cap) or any proceeds of sale of any Interest Rate Cap shall be immediately deposited into the Transaction Account for application in accordance with SECTION 2.03.

SECTION 2.12

Increased Costs.

(a)

If any Change in Law shall:

(i)

impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement (including any compulsory loan requirement, insurance charge or other assessment) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender;

(ii)

impose on any Lender any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or participation therein; or

(iii)

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

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, continuing, converting into or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b)

If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's capital or on the capital of such Xxxxxx's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of, or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's policies and the policies of such Xxxxxx's holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender's holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c)

A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

(d)

Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Xxxxxx's intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.13

Withholding of Taxes; Gross-Up.

(a)

Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower 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 Borrower 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 2.13) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b)

Payment of Other Taxes. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.

(c)

Evidence of Payment. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes (or other withholding Taxes) by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this SECTION 2.13, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative 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 the Administrative Agent.

(d)

Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within ten (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 2.13) 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 Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e)

Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Xxxxxx's failure to comply with the provisions of SECTION 8.04(d) 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 the Administrative 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 the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative 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 the Administrative Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f)

Status of Lenders.

(i)

Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative 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 Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative 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 2.13(f)(ii)(A), SECTION 2.13(f)(ii)(B) and SECTION 2.13(f)(ii)(D) 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.

(ii)

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(A)

any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), an executed IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B)

(1)

in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (i) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, an executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W 8BEN E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "interest" article of such tax treaty and (ii) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W 8BEN E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "business profits" or "other income" article of such tax treaty;

(2)

in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming that its extension of credit will generate U.S. effectively connected income, an executed IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3)

in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (i) a certificate substantially in the form of EXHIBIT D-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a "10 percent shareholder" of a Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a "controlled foreign corporation" described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a "U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate") and (ii) an executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W 8BEN E, as applicable; or

(4)

to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, an executed IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W 8BEN E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of EXHIBIT D-2 or EXHIBIT D-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of EXHIBIT D-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C)

any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D)

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

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 Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g)

Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to SECTION 2.13 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to SECTION 2.13) 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 2.13 with respect to the Taxes or Other 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 paragraph (g) (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 paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favourable 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 (g) 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.

(h)

Survival. Each party's obligations under this SECTION 2.13 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative 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.

(i)

Defined Terms. For purposes of this SECTION 2.13, the term "Applicable Law" includes FATCA.

SECTION 2.14

Payments Generally; Allocation of Proceeds; Sharing of Set-offs.

(a)

The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees, or of amounts payable under SECTION 2.12, SECTION 2.13 or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., Toronto time, on the date when due in immediately available funds, without set off or counterclaim of any kind. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at address referred to in SECTION 8.01, except that payments pursuant to SECTION 2.12, SECTION 2.13 and SECTION 8.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. As soon as practicable after the Administrative Agent receives payment from the Borrower, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day after such payment has been made, subject to SECTION 2.06, the Administrative Agent will cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees (other than amounts payable to the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Administrative Agent for fees and expenses payable solely to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) or expenses payable to the Administrative Agent, any holders of Notes and the Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in like funds relating to the payment of any such other amounts payable to the Lenders. The Borrower's obligations to the Lenders and any holders of Notes with respect to such payment shall be discharged by making such payments to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this SECTION 2.14 or, if not timely paid or any Event of Default then exists, may be added to the principal amount of the Loans outstanding. For the avoidance of doubt, all Collections shall be transferred to the Transaction Account on a daily basis.

(b)

If, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other similarly situated Lender, then the Lenders receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by all such Lender rateably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(c)

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(d)

If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Xxxxxx's obligations hereunder until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender hereunder. Application of amounts pursuant to (i) and (ii) above shall be made in any order determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

(e)

The Administrative Agent may from time to time provide the Borrower with billing statements or invoices with respect to any of the Secured Obligations (the "Billing Statements"). The Administrative Agent is under no duty or obligation to provide Statements, which, if provided, will be solely for the Borrower's convenience. Statements may contain estimates of the amounts owed during the relevant billing period, whether of principal, interest, fees or other Secured Obligations. If the Borrower pays the full amount indicated on a Billing Statement on or before the due date indicated on such Billing Statement, the Borrower shall not be in default of payment with respect to the billing period indicated on such Billing Statement; provided, that acceptance by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, of any payment that is less than the payment due at that time shall not constitute a waiver of the Administrative Agent's or the Lenders' right to receive payment in full at another time.

SECTION 2.15

Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lender.

(a)

If any Lender requests compensation under SECTION 2.12, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to SECTION 2.13, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to SECTION 2.12 or SECTION 2.13, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b)

If any Lender requests compensation under SECTION 2.12, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to SECTION 2.13, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in SECTION 8.04), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to SECTION 2.12 or SECTION 2.13) and obligations under this Agreement and other Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under SECTION 2.12 or payments required to be made pursuant to SECTION 2.13, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

SECTION 2.16

Defaulting Lender.

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

(a)

fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to SECTION 2.09; and

(b)

such Defaulting Lender shall not have the right to vote on any issue on which voting is required (other than to the extent expressly provided in SECTION 8.02(c)) and the Commitment and Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders or the Supermajority Lender or the Required Lenders or the Supermajority Lender have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to SECTION 8.02) or under any other Loan Document; provided, that, except as otherwise provided in SECTION 8.02, this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender directly affected thereby.

SECTION 2.17

Returned Payments.

If after receipt of any payment which is applied to the payment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations (including a payment effected through exercise of a right of setoff), the Administrative Agent or any Lender is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment or proceeds to any Person because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason (including pursuant to any intercreditor agreement or subordination agreement or pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion), then the Secured Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued and this Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Administrative Agent or such Lender. The provisions of this SECTION 2.17 shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or application of proceeds.

SECTION 7.05

Actions through Sub-Agents.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 7.06

Resignation.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, and the Borrower.

Each Lender agrees that no Secured Party (other than the Administrative Agent) shall have the right individually to seek to realize upon the security granted by the General Security Agreement, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties upon the terms of the General Security Agreement. In the event that any Collateral is hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Secured Obligations, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Secured Parties any Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such Collateral in favour of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens in assets which, in accordance with the PPSA, the Securities Transfer Act (Ontario) or any other Applicable Law can be perfected only by possession or control.

SECTION 7.09

SECTION 8.02

Waivers; Amendments.

(a)

No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be effective unless it is in writing signed by the parties hereto.

(b)

No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Transaction Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under any other Loan Document are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (c) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(c)

Except as provided in the first sentence of SECTION 2.07(b) (with respect to any commitment increase), neither this Agreement nor any other Transaction Document (other than any fee letter) nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (including any such Lender that is a Defaulting Lender), (ii) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce or forgive any interest or fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (including any such Lender that is a Defaulting Lender) affected thereby, (iii) postpone any scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan, or any date for the payment of any interest, fees or other Secured Obligations payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender (including any such Lender that is a Defaulting Lender) affected thereby, (iv) change SECTION 2.14(b) or SECTION 2.14(d) in a manner that would alter the manner in which payments are shared, without the written consent of each Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender), (v) increase the advance rates set forth in the definition of Borrowing Base or add new categories of eligible assets, without the written consent of the Supermajority Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender), (vi) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of "Required Lenders" or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lender required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender) directly affected thereby, (vii) change SECTION 2.16, without the consent of each Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender) or (viii) except as provided in clause (d) of this Section or in the General Security Agreement, release or subordinate the Administrative Agent's Lien on all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the written consent of each Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender); provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (it being understood that any amendment to SECTION 2.16 shall require the consent of the Administrative Agent). The Administrative Agent may also amend the Commitment Schedule to reflect assignments entered into pursuant to SECTION 8.04.

(d)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may, with consent of the Borrower only, amend, modify or supplement this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, so long as such amendment, modification or supplement does not adversely affect the rights of any Lender, without obtaining the consent of any other party to this Agreement.

(e)

The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release any Liens granted to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower on any Collateral (i) upon the termination of all of the Commitments, payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Secured Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations), and the cash collateralization of all Unliquidated Obligations in a manner satisfactory to each affected Lender, (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if the Borrower certifies to the Administrative Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (and the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry) or (iii) as required to effect any sale or other disposition of such Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Article 6. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent will not release any Liens on Collateral without the prior written authorization of the Required Lenders; provided that, the Administrative Agent may in its discretion, release its Liens on Collateral valued in the aggregate not in excess of $1,000,000 during any calendar year without the prior written authorization of the Required Lenders (it being agreed that the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on one or more certificates of the Borrower as to the value of any Collateral to be so released, without further inquiry). Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Secured Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Borrower in respect of) all interests retained by the Borrower, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. Any execution and delivery by the Administrative Agent of documents in connection with any such release shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.

The Borrower shall pay all (i) reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any outside general counsel, plus, if applicable, one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction and one counsel with respect to any specialized matters for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the syndication and distribution (including, without limitation, via the internet or through an Electronic System) of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Transaction Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions of the Transaction Documents (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any outside general counsel, plus, if applicable, one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction and one counsel with respect to any specialized matters for each of the Administrative Agent or any Lender (to the extent that such Lender or similarly affected group of Lender has an actual or perceived conflict of interest with the Administrative Agent or another Lender or Lender), in connection with the enforcement, collection or protection of its rights in connection with the Transaction Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans.

(ii)

any representation or warranty made by any Credit Party under this Agreement, or any other Transaction Document to which is it a party, which shall have been false or incorrect when made or deemed made;

(iii)

any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom;

(iv)

the failure of the Borrower to deliver to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence with respect to a payment made by the Borrower for Taxes pursuant to SECTION 2.12;

(v)

any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding is brought by any lender or credit provider arising out of any actual or potential credit agreement or facility (or similar credit arrangement) between any lender or credit provider (other than any Indemnitee) and CURO Group Holdings Corp. and/or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (but, for the avoidance of doubt, pending any such final and non-appealable judgment, the Borrower will pay each applicable Indemnitee any such losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities or related expenses, including by advancing all reasonable legal fees; provided, that any such advanced amounts shall be promptly repaid to the Borrower upon issuance of any such final and non-appealable judgment that the claimed losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities or related expenses have resulted from the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee);

(vi)

to the extent not governed by clause (v) above, any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower or their respective equity holders, Affiliates, creditors or any other third Person and whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee;

(vii)

any representation or warranty made or deemed to be made by the Sellers or the Servicers (or any of its officers), in or in connection with any Transaction Document, which was incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made or delivered;

(xii)

any disclosure of personal information (within the meaning of applicable Canadian privacy legislation) of any individual by any Seller or Servicer to any Person (such personal information provided by the Sellers or the Servicers to any Person, if any, being "Personal Information"), that is not in compliance with PIPEDA or any other applicable Canadian privacy legislation.

(xiii)

This SECTION 8.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c)

To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent or Affiliate thereof) under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any Affiliate thereof), as the case may be, such Lender's Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (it being understood that the Borrower's failure to pay any such amount shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof); provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, penalty, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such.

(d)

To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee (i) for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet) or (ii) on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that, nothing in this paragraph (d) shall relieve the Borrower of any obligation it may have to indemnify an Indemnitee against special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against such Indemnitee by a third party.

(e)

Each Lender, in proportion to its pro rata share, severally agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Affiliate of the Administrative Agent (each such Person being called an "Agent Indemnitee"), to the extent that such Agent Indemnitee shall not have been reimbursed by the Borrower, against, and hold each Agent Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, incremental taxes, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Agent Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Agent Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of the execution or delivery of the Transaction Documents, including the Transaction Account Blocked Account Agreement, or any other Control Agreement entered in by the Administrative Agent pursuant to and in connection with this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby.

SECTION 8.04

(a)

The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) no Credit Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by a Credit Party without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b)

(i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Persons (other than an Ineligible Institution) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:

(A)

the Borrower, provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof, and provided further that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; and

(B)

the Administrative Agent, and

(ii)

Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A)

except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Xxxxxx's Commitment, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(B)

each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Xxxxxx's rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(C)

the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $10,000;

(D)

the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its Related Parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee's compliance procedures and Applicable Laws, including federal, provincial and state securities laws; and

(E)

any assignments of all or a portion of a Lender's Commitment or other rights and obligations under this Agreement relating to the Borrower shall be made to a Qualified Lender.

For the purposes of this SECTION 8.04(b), the terms "Approved Fund" and "Ineligible Institution" have the following meanings:

"Approved Fund" means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

"Ineligible Institution" means a (a) natural person, (b) a Defaulting Lender or its parent, (c) company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person or relative(s) thereof; provided that, such company, investment vehicle or trust shall not constitute an Ineligible Institution if it (x) has not been established for the primary purpose of acquiring any Loans or Commitments, (y) is managed by a professional advisor, who is not such natural person or a relative thereof, having significant experience in the business of making or purchasing commercial loans, and (z) has assets greater than $25,000,000 and a significant part of its activities consist of making or purchasing commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business, (d) the Borrower or Affiliate thereof or (e) at all times that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, a competitor of the Borrower.

(iii)

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of SECTION 2.16, SECTION 2.02, SECTION 2.12 and SECTION 8.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this SECTION 8.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv)

The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the "Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative 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, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v)

Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee's completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to SECTION 2.07(b), SECTION 2.14(b) or SECTION 8.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c)

Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a "Participant") other than an Ineligible Institution in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged; (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lender shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Xxxxxx's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to SECTION 8.02(c) that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of SECTION 2.13 and SECTION 2.12 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under SECTION 2.13(f) and SECTION 2.13(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under SECTION 2.13(f)(i) shall be delivered to the participating Lender and the information and documentation required under SECTION 2.13(f)(ii) will be delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of SECTION 2.14 and SECTION 2.15 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under SECTION 2.13 or SECTION 2.12, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.

(d)

Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower's request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of SECTION 2.15(b) with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of SECTION 8.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to the terms hereof as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant's interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (the "Participant Register"); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e)

Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

SECTION 8.05

Survival.

All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of SECTION 2.12, SECTION 2.13, SECTION 8.03 and Article 7 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof.

SECTION 8.06

Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.

(a)

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in SECTION 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(b)

the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i)

a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii)

a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii)

the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

SECTION 8.19

Judgment Currency Conversion.

(a)

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

If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Borrower covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date. Any amount due from the Borrower under this SECTION 8.19 shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of any of the Loan Documents.

(c)

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

SECTION 8.20

Canadian Anti-Money Laundering Legislation.

(a)

The Borrower acknowledges that, pursuant to the Proceeds of Crime Act and other applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist financing, government sanction and "know your client" laws (collectively, including any guidelines or orders thereunder, "AML Legislation"), the Secured Parties may be required to obtain, verify and record information regarding the Borrower and their respective directors, authorized signing officers, direct or indirect shareholders or other Persons in control of the Borrower, and the transactions contemplated hereby. The Borrower shall promptly provide all such information, including supporting documentation and other evidence, as may be reasonably requested by any Secured Party or any prospective assignee or participant of a Secured Party or the Administrative Agent, in order to comply with any applicable AML Legislation, whether now or hereafter in existence.

(b)

If the Administrative Agent has ascertained the identity of the Borrower or any authorized signatories of the Borrower for the purposes of applicable AML Legislation, then the Administrative Agent:

(i)

shall be deemed to have done so as an agent for each Secured Party, and this Agreement shall constitute a "written agreement" in such regard between each Secured Party and the Administrative Agent within the meaning of the applicable AML Legislation; and

(ii)

shall provide to each Secured Party 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 of the Secured Parties agrees that the Administrative Agent has no obligation to ascertain the identity of the Borrower or any of its authorized signatories on behalf of any Secured Party, or to confirm the completeness or accuracy of any information it obtains from the Borrower or any of its authorized signatories in doing so.
