(i) Section 2.05 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make (i) Company Swingline Loans in Dollars to the Company and (ii) Canadian Swingline Loans in Canadian Dollars to the Canadian Borrowers, in each case from time to time during the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (u) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $65,000,000, (v) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Company Swingline Loans exceeding $50,000,000, (w) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Canadian Swingline Loans exceeding $15,000,000, (x) the Dollar Amount of the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the Revolving Credit Availability at such time, (y) the Dollar Amount of the total Company Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the Company Revolving Credit Availability at such time or (z) the Dollar Amount of the total Canadian Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the Canadian Revolving Credit Availability at such time; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company may borrow, prepay and reborrow Company Swingline Loans and the Canadian Borrowers may borrow, prepay and reborrow Canadian Swingline Loans.

(b) To request a Swingline Loan, the applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy), not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day), currency and amount of the requested Swingline Loan and the account to which the proceeds of such Swingline Loan are to be credited. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from the Company or the applicable Canadian Borrower. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the relevant Borrower by means of a credit to the general deposit account of such Borrower (as designated by such Borrower in such notice) with the Swingline Lender (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank) by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.

(c) The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Business Day, require the Lenders to acquire participations on such date in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding in the applicable currency of such Swingline Loans. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount and applicable currency of Swingline Loans in which Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s

3

Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans and the currency of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay in the applicable currency to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Company of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from any Borrower (or other party on behalf of any Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the relevant Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve any Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.”

(j) Section 2.06(e) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to (x) add the word “Company” immediately before the first reference to “Swingline Loans” appearing therein and (y) add the words “or a Canadian Swingline Loan” immediately after the words “Canadian Base Rate Borrowing” appearing therein.

(k) Section 2.06(h) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to delete the word “Revolving” appearing immediately after the words “Canadian Base Rate” appearing therein.

(l) Section 2.07(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to insert the parenthetical “(or, in the case of an ABR Borrowing or a Canadian Base Rate Borrowing, prior to the proposed time of any Borrowing)” immediately after the words “prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing” appearing in the first sentence thereof.

(m) Section 2.08(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“(a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.08 and of Sections 2.13 and 2.14 hereof, (i) Company Revolving Loans (other than Company Swingline Loans) may be made or maintained only as ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans, (ii) Company Swingline Loans may be made or maintained only as ABR Loans, (iii) Canadian Revolving Loans (other than Canadian Swingline Loans) may be made or maintained

4

only as Canadian Base Rate Loans or BA Equivalent Loans and (iv) Canadian Swingline Loans may be made or maintained only as Canadian Base Rate Loans.”

(n) Section 2.10(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to delete the final sentence thereof and to replace such sentence with the sentence “The Company hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the Maturity Date.”

(o) Section 2.13(a) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to add the word “Company” immediately before the words “Swingline Loan” appearing therein.

(p) Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to (i) delete the word “and” appearing at the end of clause (g) thereof, (ii) change clause (h) thereof to a new clause (i) thereof and (iii) add the following as a new clause (h) thereof:

(q) Section 6.16 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to delete the references to “March 31, 2012” appearing therein and to replace such references with references to “June 30, 2012.”
