The taking of any proceedings in any one or more jurisdictions shall not preclude the taking of any proceedings in any other jurisdiction.

c.This Amendment may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Amendment on any number of separate counterparts (including by email or other electronic transmission), each of which shall constitute an original and all of which taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page (including any Electronic Signature) to this Amendment by emailed .pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment. The words “execution”, “signed”, “signature”, “delivery” and words of like import in or relating to this Amendment shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by emailed .pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. As used herein, “Electronic Signature” shall mean an electronic sound, symbol or process attached to, or associated with, a contract or other record and adopted by a Person with the intent to sign, authenticate or accept such contract or record.

d.The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not prejudice, limit, or operate, or be deemed to operate, as a waiver of, any rights, powers or remedies of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under the Credit Documents or constitute a waiver of any provision thereof, except as expressly set forth herein.

CREDIT FACILITY

2.1

Establishment of Credit Facility

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Lenders hereby establish in favor of Borrowers a revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) in the amount of $1,000,000,000, as such amount may be reduced pursuant to Section 0 and increased pursuant to Section 2.5.

2.2

Lenders’ Commitments

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Lenders severally agree to extend credit to Borrowers under the Credit Facility from time to time provided that the aggregate amount of credit extended by each Lender under the Credit Facility shall not at any time exceed the Individual Commitment of such Lender and further provided that the aggregate amount of credit outstanding under the Credit Facility shall not at any time exceed the amount of the Credit Facility. All credit requested under the Credit Facility shall be made available to Borrowers contemporaneously by all of the Lenders. Each Lender shall provide to Borrowers its Pro Rata Share of each credit, whether such credit is extended by way of drawdown, rollover or conversion.

- 41 -

No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to provide its Pro Rata Share of any credit under the Credit Facility nor shall the Individual Commitment of any Lender be increased as a result of any such default of another Lender in extending credit under the Credit Facility. The failure of any Lender to make available to Borrowers its Pro Rata Share of any credit under the Credit Facility shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to Borrowers its Pro Rata Share of such credit under the Credit Facility.

2.3

Reduction of Credit Facility

Borrowers may, from time to time and at any time, by notice in writing from the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent, permanently reduce the Credit Facility in whole or in part to the extent it is not being utilized at the time such notice is given, provided that such reduction shall not become effective until three (3) Banking Days after such notice has been given. The amount of the Credit Facility will be permanently reduced with respect to the repayment made in accordance with Section 0 but shall not be permanently reduced with respect to any voluntary prepayment made in accordance with Section 0. Any repayment of outstanding credit which forms part of any conversion from one type of credit to another type of credit under Article 3 or Article 6 or of any rollover under Article 5 shall not cause any reduction in the amount of the Credit Facility. Upon any reduction of the Credit Facility, the Individual Commitment of each Lender shall thereupon be reduced by an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of such reduction of the Credit Facility.

2.4

Termination of Credit Facility

(a)

The Credit Facility shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of:

(i)

the termination of the Credit Facility in accordance with Section 0;

(ii)

the date on which the Credit Facility has been permanently reduced to zero pursuant to Section 0; and

(iii)

the Maturity Date.

(b)

Upon the termination of the Credit Facility, the right of Borrowers to obtain any credit thereunder and all of the obligations of the Lenders to extend credit thereunder shall automatically terminate.

2.5

Incremental Loans.

(a)

Borrowers may at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date by written notice from the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall make such notice available to each of the Lenders) request one or more additional new revolving loan tranches (an “Incremental Loan”) increasing the aggregate amount of the commitments hereunder (each such increase, a “Commitment Increase”) in an aggregate amount not to exceed $250,000,000 from any existing Lender or, subject to compliance by the Swiss Borrower with the Non-Bank Rules, an Additional Incremental Lender (which Additional Incremental Lender shall become a “Lender” hereunder subject to the

- 42 -

prior consent of the Administrative Agent and Borrowers, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Each such written notice shall specify: (i) the date on which Borrowers propose that the Commitment Increase shall be effective (the “Loan Increase Effective Date”), which shall be a date not less than ten (10) Banking Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent, (ii) the amount of such proposed Commitment Increase (which shall not exceed an aggregate of $250,000,000 for all Commitment Increases), and (iii) the identity of each Lender (including each Additional Incremental Lender) to whom Borrowers propose each portion of such Commitment Increase and related Incremental Loan be allocated and the amount of each such allocation. No existing Lender will have any obligation to accept or make any portion of any Incremental Loan or to make any Loan associated with any Commitment Increase. Each Lender, in its sole discretion, may either grant or deny any increase in its respective commitment.

(b)

A Commitment Increase shall become effective as of the Loan Increase Effective Date; provided that each of the following conditions precedent is satisfied:

(i)

no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from any borrowing to be made as of the Loan Increase Effective Date or otherwise with respect to the Commitment Increase;

(ii)

the representations and warranties made by Borrowers herein shall be true and correct in all material respects (or in all respects to the extent otherwise qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect) on and as of the Loan Increase Effective Date as if made on and as of such date, except for representations and warranties expressly stated to relate to a specific earlier date (in which event such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects (or in all respects to the extent otherwise qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect) on and as of such earlier date);

(iii)

the Borrower Representative shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the U.S. Borrower certifying clauses (i) and (ii); and

(iv)

the Commitment Increase has been accepted by one or more Lenders or Additional Incremental Lenders.

(c)

The terms and conditions of any Incremental Loan made pursuant to a Commitment Increase shall be as follows:

(i)

on and after each Loan Increase Effective Date, each Lender (including Additional Incremental Lender(s)) shall be obligated, to the extent of its commitment, in accordance with the requirements set forth in this Agreement to provide Loans to Borrowers under each Incremental Loan subject to Borrowers’ compliance with the terms and conditions of this

- 43 -

Agreement applicable to all Loans, including with respect to borrowing procedures and conditions precedent to all Loans;

(ii)

each Commitment Increase shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and

(iii)

each Commitment Increase shall be documented pursuant to an incremental joinder agreement (the “Incremental Joinder”) reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, executed by Xxxxxxxxx, the Administrative Agent and each Lender making such Incremental Loan. The Incremental Joinder may, without the consent of any other Lender, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.5. In addition, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all references in this Agreement or any other Credit Document to Loans shall be deemed to include a reference to Incremental Loans that are Loans made pursuant to this Agreement.

(d)

Prior to each respective Loan Increase Effective Date, the Administrative Agent shall receive from each Additional Incremental Lender an administrative questionnaire in the form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or, in the case of an existing Lender, an update to such administrative questionnaire and the Administrative Agent shall adjust each Lender’s Pro Rata Share to account for each such Lender and/or Additional Incremental Lender and each Commitment Increase and related Incremental Loan.

(e)

The Incremental Loans and Commitment Increases established pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall constitute Loans and Individual Commitments for all purposes under, and shall be entitled to all the rights, benefits and remedies afforded by this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably, on a pari passu basis, from the guarantees of the Guarantors.

(f)

Each Lender providing an Incremental Loan or a Commitment Increase on the Loan Increase Effective Date shall make a Loan, the proceeds of which will be used to prepay the Loans of the other Lenders immediately prior to such Loan Increase Effective Date, so that, after giving effect thereto, the Loans outstanding are held by the Lenders pro rata based on their Individual Commitments after giving effect to such Loan Increase Effective Date. If there is a new borrowing of Loans on such Loan Increase Effective Date, the Lenders after giving effect to such Loan Increase Effective Date shall make such Loans in accordance with Article 3.

ARTICLE 3

GENERAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO CREDITS

3.1

Types of Credit Commitments

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Borrowers may obtain credit from the Lenders under the Credit Facility through the Branch of Account by way of one or more Base Rate Loans and LIBORSOFR Loans. Any extension of credit hereunder by way of Base Rate Loans or LIBORSOFR Loans shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000.

3.2

Funding of Loans

Each Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of each Loan under the Credit Facility prior to 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on the date of the extension of credit. The Administrative Agent shall, upon fulfilment by Borrowers of the terms and conditions set forth in Article 12 and unless otherwise irrevocably authorized and directed in the Drawdown Notice, make such funds available to the applicable Borrower as designated in such Drawdown Notice on the date of the extension of credit by crediting the applicable Designated Account (or causing such account to be credited). Unless the Administrative Agent has been notified by a Lender at least one Banking Day prior to the date of the extension of credit that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of such Loan, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Xxxxxx has made such portion of the Loan available to the Administrative Agent on the date of the extension of credit in accordance with the provisions hereof and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent has made such assumption, to the extent such Lender shall not have so made its Pro Rata Share of the Loan available to the Administrative Agent, such Xxxxxx agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, forthwith on demand, such Xxxxxx’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith together with interest thereon at the then prevailing interbank rate for each day from the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower until the date such amount is paid or repaid to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that notwithstanding such obligation, if such Lender fails so to pay, Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any rights that Borrowers might have against such Xxxxxx, repay such amount to the Administrative Agent forthwith promptly after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent. The amount payable by each Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto shall be set forth in a certificate delivered by the Administrative Agent to such Lender and the Borrower Representative (which certificate shall contain reasonable details of how the amount payable is calculated) and shall constitute prima facie evidence of such amount payable. If such Lender makes the payment to the Administrative Agent required herein, the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan for purposes of this Agreement and shall entitle the Lender to all rights and remedies against Borrowers in respect of such Loan.

3.3

Failure or Declination of Lender to Fund Loan

If any Defaulting Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of any Loan under the Credit Facility as required and the Administrative Agent has not funded pursuant to Section 0, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice of such failure

- 45 -

by the Defaulting Lender to the Borrower Representative and the other Lenders and such notice shall state that any Lender may make available to the Administrative Agent all or any portion of the Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Loan (but in no way shall any other Lender or the Administrative Agent be obliged to do so) in the place and stead of the Defaulting Lender. If more than one Lender gives notice that it is prepared to make funds available in the place and stead of a Defaulting Lender in such circumstances and the aggregate of the funds which such Lenders (herein collectively called the “Contributing Lenders” and individually called the “Contributing Lender”) are prepared to make available exceeds the amount of the advance which the Defaulting Lender failed to make, then each Contributing Lender shall be deemed to have given notice that it is prepared to make available its pro rata share of such advance based on the Contributing Lenders’ relative commitments to advance in such circumstances. If any Contributing Lender makes funds available in the place and stead of a Defaulting Lender in such circumstances, then the Defaulting Lender shall pay to any Contributing Lender making the funds available in its place and stead, forthwith on demand, any amount advanced on its behalf together with interest thereon at the then prevailing interbank rate for each day from the date of advance to the date of payment, against payment by the Contributing Lender making the funds available of all interest received in respect of the Loan from Borrowers. In addition to interest as aforesaid, Borrowers shall pay all amounts owing by Borrowers to the Defaulting Lender hereunder (with respect to the amounts advanced by the Contributing Lenders on behalf of the Defaulting Lender) to the Contributing Lenders until such time as the Defaulting Lender pays to the Administrative Agent for the Contributing Lenders all amounts advanced by the Contributing Lenders on behalf of the Defaulting Lender;

3.4

Timing of Credit Commitments

No LIBORSOFR Loan under the Credit Facility may have a maturity date later than the Maturity Date.

3.5

Alternate Rate of InterestInability to Determine Rates.

Subject to Section 3.6, if, on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any SOFR Loan:

(a)

the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Adjusted Term SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof, or

If (b) the Majority Lenders determine that for any reason that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the LIBOR forin connection with any request for a SOFR Loan or a conversion thereto or a continuation thereof that Adjusted Term SOFR for any requested Interest Period, or (c) the LIBOR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed SOFR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of fundingmaking and maintaining such Loan, and the Majority Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Administrative Agent,

then, in each case, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower Representative and each Lender. Thereafter,

- 46 -

theUpon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR LoansSOFR Loans, and any right of a Borrower to continue SOFR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to SOFR Loans, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans or affected Interest Periods) until the Administrative Agent (uponwith respect to clause (b), at the instruction of the Majority Lenders) revokes such notice; provided that any LIBOR Loan outstanding prior to such notice may remain outstanding until the end of the then-applicable Interest Period with respect thereto (without giving effect to any subsequent continuation or conversion). Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower Representative may revoke any pending request for a Borrowingborrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBORSOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans or affected Interest Periods) or, failing that, the Borrower Representative will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing ofBorrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. and (ii) any outstanding affected SOFR Loans will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period. Upon any such conversion, the relevant Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 8.4. Subject to Section 3.6, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Adjusted Term SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof on any given day, the interest rate on Base Rate Loans shall be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Alternate Base Rate” until the Administrative Agent revokes such determination.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Credit Documents, to the extent the obligations of a Borrower shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers) then the obligations of such Borrower hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount that is permissible under applicable law (whether federal, state or provincial and including the Bankruptcy Code of the United States).

(f)

With respect to the Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of Borrowers hereunder with respect to Loans or other extensions of credit made to any other Borrower hereunder, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower waives, until a payment in full of the Obligations, any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which the Administrative Agent or any Lender now has or may hereafter have against any Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the Administrative Agent or any Lender. Any claim which any Borrower may have against any other Borrower with respect to any payments to the Administrative Agent or Lenders hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior Maturity Date. Upon the occurrence

- 53 -

of any Event of Default and for so long as the same is continuing, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, Administrative Agent may proceed directly and at once, without notice (to the extent notice is waivable under applicable law), against (i) with respect to Obligations of Borrowers, any or all of them or (ii) with respect to Obligations of any Borrower, to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of the applicable Obligations, without first proceeding against the other Borrower or any other Person, or against any security or collateral for the Obligations. Each Borrower consents and agrees that the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Xxxxxxxx(s) or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. Each Borrower waives all other acts or omissions to act or delay of any kind by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other person or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of its obligations hereunder, and each Borrower waives all other defense available to a guarantor or surety, whether at law or in equity. Subject to the foregoing, in the event that a Loan or other extension of credit is made to, or with respect to business of, one Borrower and any other Borrower makes any payments with respect to such Loan or extension of credit, the first Borrower shall promptly reimburse such other Borrower for all payments so made by such other Borrower.

(g)

Each of Borrowers waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the other Borrower, any guarantor or any other party other than payment in full of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations), including without limitation any defense based on or arising out of the disability of the other Borrower, any guarantor or any other party, or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Borrower other than payment in full of the Obligations. Each of Borrowers waives all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including without limitation notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Agreement, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new, additional, restated or continued Obligations.

3.13

Swiss limitations

(a)

If and to the extent that the Swiss Borrower becomes liable under the Credit Documents for obligations of any other Obligor (other than direct or indirect subsidiaries of the Swiss Borrower provided that any minority shareholders of such subsidiaries are not Affiliates of the Swiss Borrower) and if complying with such obligations would constitute a repayment of capital (Einlagerückgewähr), a violation of the legally protected reserves (gesetzlich geschützte Reserven) or the payment of a (constructive) dividend (Gewinnausschüttung) by the Swiss Borrower or would otherwise be restricted under then applicable Swiss law (the “Restricted Obligations”), the aggregate liability of the Swiss Borrower for Restricted Obligations shall be limited at such time to the maximum amount of the Swiss Borrower’s freely disposable equity in accordance with Swiss law, presently being the total shareholder equity less the total of (i) the aggregate share capital and (ii)

(b)

In relation to payments made under the Restricted Obligations, the Swiss Borrower shall:

(i)

ensure that such payment can be made without deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax, or at a reduced rate, by discharging the liability to withhold such Swiss Withholding Tax by notification pursuant to applicable law rather than payment of the Swiss Withholding Tax (and the Swiss Borrower shall promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent a copy of each such notification made);

(ii)

to the extent such notification procedure does not apply and if and to the extent required by applicable law and subject to any applicable double tax treaties in force at the relevant time:

(c)

Where a deduction for Swiss Withholding Tax is required to be made pursuant to paragraph (b) above, the Swiss Borrower shall gross-up any payment under this Section 3.13 (and it shall withhold Swiss Withholding Tax on the grossed-up

- 55 -

amount in accordance with paragraph (b) above), subject always to the limitations set out in paragraph 3.13 (a) above. This paragraph (c) is without prejudice to the indemnification obligations of any Obligor other than the Swiss Borrower in respect of any amounts deducted for the account of Swiss Withholding Tax.

(d)

If and to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent, the Swiss Borrower shall, promptly implement all such measures and/or promptly procure the fulfilment of all prerequisites allowing it to promptly make the requested payment(s) from time to time, including the following:

(i)

preparation of an audited annual or interim balance sheet of the Swiss Borrower to the extent required by Swiss corporate law, on the basis of which the Available Amount will be determined;

(ii)

confirmation of the auditors of the Swiss Borrower that the relevant requested amount does not exceed the Available Amount;

(iii)

approval by a shareholders’ meeting of the Swiss Borrower of the distribution of the relevant requested amount (within the limits of the Available Amount);

(iv)

if the enforcement of obligations of the Swiss Borrower were limited due to the effects referred to in this Section 3.13 and to the extent permitted by applicable Swiss law, write up or realize any of its assets that are shown in its balance sheet with a book value that is lower than the market value of the assets (in case of realization, however, only if such assets are not necessary for the Swiss Borrower’s business (nicht betriebsnotwendige Aktiven), and/or convert statutory reserves into freely available reserves to the extent such statutory reserves do not need to be maintained by mandatory law; and

(v)

all such other measures necessary or useful, and permitted under applicable Swiss laws, to allow the Swiss Borrower to make prompt payments or perform promptly Restricted Obligations with a minimum of limitations.

ARTICLE 7

INTEREST AND FEES

7.1

Interest Rates

Borrowers shall pay to the Lenders, in accordance with Section 0, interest on the outstanding principal amount from time to time of each Loan at the rate per annum equal to:

- 59 -

(a)

in the case of each Base Rate Loan, the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate in respect of Base Rate Loans; and

(b)

in the case of each LIBORSOFR Loan, LIBORAdjusted Term SOFR plus the Applicable Rate in respect of LIBORSOFR Loans.

7.2

Calculation and Payment of Interest

(a)

Interest on the outstanding principal amount from time to time of each Base Rate Loan shall accrue from day to day from and including the date on which credit is obtained by way of such Loan to but excluding the date on which such Loan is repaid in full (both before and after maturity and as well after as before judgment) and shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed divided by 365 or 366, as the case may be.

(b)

Accrued interest shall be paid,

(i)

in the case of interest on Base Rate Loans, monthly in arrears on the last day of each calendar month; and

(ii)

in the case of interest on LIBORSOFR Loans, on the last day of the applicable Interest Period; provided that, in the case of Interest Periods of a duration longer than three (3) months, accrued interest shall be paid no less frequently than every three (3) months from the first day of such Interest Period during the term of such Interest Period and on the date on which such LIBORSOFR Loans are otherwise required to be repaid.

7.3

General Interest Rules

(a)

All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the LIBORTerm SOFR Reference Rate) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid; provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(b)

Interest on each Loan and on overdue interest thereon shall be payable in the currency in which such Loan is denominated during the relevant period.

(c)

If Borrowers fail to pay any principal, interest, fee or other amount of any nature payable by it to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under any document, instrument or agreement delivered pursuant hereto on the due date

- 60 -

therefor, Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, as the case may be, interest on such overdue amount in the same currency as such overdue amount is payable from and including such due date to but excluding the date of actual payment (as well after as before judgment) at the Default Rate. Such interest on overdue amounts shall become due and be paid on demand made by the Administrative Agent.

(d)

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.

(e)

If any provision of this Agreement would oblige any Borrower or any Obligor 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 applicable Requirements of Law or would results 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 Requirements of Law or so result in a receipt by that Lender of “interest” at a “criminal rate”, such adjustment to be affected, to the extent necessary (but only to the extent necessary), as follows:

(i)

first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest; and

(ii)

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

7.4

Minimum Interest.

(a)

By entering into this Agreement or any amendment agreement relating to this Agreement, the Obligors acknowledge and agree that the Credit Parties have assumed in bona fide that any amounts payable by an Obligor under any Credit Document are not and will not become subject to any tax deduction on account of Swiss Withholding Tax.

(b)

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, if a tax deduction is required by law in respect of any amount payable by the Swiss Borrower under any Credit Document and should it be unlawful for the Swiss Borrower to comply with Section 8.6 (Tax) for any reason, where this would otherwise be required by the terms of Section 8.6 (Tax) then:

- 61 -

(i)

the applicable interest rate in relation to that payment shall be the interest rate which would have applied to that payment as provided for by Section 7.2 (Calculation and Payment of Interest) divided by 1 minus the rate at which the relevant tax deduction is required to be made under Swiss domestic tax law and/or applicable tax treaties (where the rate at which the relevant tax deduction is required to be made is for this purpose expressed as a fraction of 1); and

(ii)

the Swiss Borrower shall:

(A)

pay the relevant amount at the adjusted rate in accordance with paragraph (i) above;

(B)

make the tax deduction on the interest so recalculated; and

(C)

all references to a rate of interest under the Credit Documents shall be construed accordingly.

(iii)

To the extent that any amount payable under any Credit Document becomes subject to Swiss Withholding Tax, it is agreed that each relevant Lender and the Swiss Borrower shall promptly cooperate in completing any procedural formalities (including submitting forms and documents required by the appropriate tax authority) to the extent possible and necessary (i) for the Swiss Borrower to obtain authorisation to make interest payments without them being subject to Swiss Withholding Tax or at a reduced rate; or, to the extent such relief at source is not possible, (ii) to ensure that any person which is entitled to a full or partial refund under any applicable double taxation treaty is so refunded.

(iv)

The Swiss Borrower shall provide the Lenders with such documents and information required for applying for a refund of such Swiss Withholding Tax. In the event Swiss Withholding Tax is refunded to a Lender by the Swiss Federal Tax Administration, the relevant Lender shall forward, after deduction of costs, such amount to the Swiss Borrower, unless an Event of Default is continuing.

7.5

Selection of Interest Periods

With respect to each LIBORSOFR Loan, the Drawdown Notice, Rollover Notice or Conversion Notice shall specify the duration of the Interest Period provided that:

(a)

Interest Periods shall have a duration from seven days or one, two, three or six months (or, if available to all Lenders, twelve months) (subject to the aggregate number of Interest Periods with different dates outstanding being less than ten (10));

(b)

the first Interest Period for a LIBORSOFR Loan shall commence on and include the day on which credit is obtained by way of such Loan and each subsequent

- 62 -

Interest Period applicable thereto shall commence on and include the date of the expiry of the immediately preceding Interest Period applicable thereto; and

(c)

if any Interest Period would end on a day which is not a Banking Day, such Interest Period shall be extended to the next succeeding Banking Day unless such next succeeding Banking Day falls in the next calendar month, in which case such Interest Period shall be shortened to end on the immediately preceding Banking Day.

7.6

Commitment Fee

Upon the first Banking Day of each Fiscal Quarter and upon the termination of the Credit Facility, Borrowers shall pay in accordance with Section 0, to the Lenders, in arrears, a commitment fee, calculated at the rate per annum, on the basis of a year of 365 days, equal to the Applicable Rate under the column “Commitment Fee” on the daily Available Credit during the most recently completed Fiscal Quarter or part thereof, such fee to accrue daily from the date of the execution and delivery of this Agreement to and including the date on which the Credit Facility is terminated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, commitment fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of any Individual Commitment of a Lender while it is a Defaulting Lender.

7.7

Applicable Rate Adjustment

The changes in the Applicable Rate shall be effective as of the applicable Leverage Ratio calculation date based upon the compliance certificate contemplated under Section 0 that has been delivered to the Administrative Agent. If a new Applicable Rate becomes effective during the term of an outstanding Loan, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith determine the amount of any overpayment or underpayment of interest with respect to such Loan and notify the Borrower Representative and the Lenders of such amounts. Such determination by the Administrative Agent shall constitute, in the absence of manifest error, prima facie evidence of the amount of such overpayment or underpayment, as the case may be. In the event of an underpayment, Borrowers shall, upon receipt of such notice by the Borrower Representative, pay to the Lenders in accordance with Section 0, the amount of such underpayment. In the event of any overpayment, the amount of such overpayment shall be credited to succeeding payments of interest or fees, as the case may be, as they become due until such amount has been fully applied.

ARTICLE 8

RESERVE, CAPITAL, INDEMNITY AND TAX PROVISIONS

8.1

Conditions of Credit

The obtaining or maintaining of credit hereunder shall be subject to the terms and conditions contained in this 0.

8.2

Change of Circumstances

(a)

If, with respect to any type of credit, the introduction or adoption of any law, regulation, guideline, request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency (“Restraint”)

- 63 -

or any change therein or in the application thereof to any Borrower or to any Lender or in the interpretation or administration thereof or any compliance by any Lender therewith:

(i)

prohibits or restricts extending or maintaining such type of credit or the charging of interest or fees in connection therewith, Borrowers agree that such Lender shall have the right to comply with such Restraint, shall have the right to refuse to permit Borrowers to obtain such type of credit and shall have the right to require, at the option of Borrowers, the conversion of such outstanding credit to another type of credit to permit compliance with the Restraint or repayment in full of such credit together with accrued interest thereon on the last day on which it is lawful for such Lender to continue to maintain and fund such credit or to charge interest or fees in connection therewith, as the case may be; or

(ii)

shall impose or require any reserve, special deposit requirements or tax (excluding taxes measured with reference to the net income of such Lender or capital taxes or receipts and franchise taxes), shall establish an appropriate amount of capital to be maintained by such Lender or shall impose any other requirement or condition which results in an increased cost to such Lender of extending or maintaining a credit or obligation hereunder or reduces the amount received or receivable by such Lender with respect to any credit under this Agreement or reduces such Lender’s effective return hereunder or on its capital or causes such Lender to make any payment or to forego any return based on any amount received or receivable hereunder, then, on notification to the Borrower Representative by such Lender, Borrowers shall pay immediately to such Lender such amounts as shall fully compensate such Lender for all such increased costs, reductions, payments or foregone returns which accrue up to and including the date of receipt by the Borrower Representative of such notice and thereafter, upon demand from time to time, Borrowers shall pay such additional amount as shall fully compensate such Lender for any such increased or imposed costs, reductions, payments or foregone returns. Such Lender shall notify the Borrower Representative of any actual increased or imposed costs, reductions, payments or foregone returns forthwith on becoming aware of same and shall concurrently provide to Borrowers a certificate of an officer of such Lender setting forth the amount of compensation to be paid to such Lender and the basis for the calculation of such amount. Notwithstanding this Section 0, Borrowers shall not be liable to compensate such Lender for any such cost, reduction, payment or foregone return occurring more than 60 days before receipt by the Borrower Representative of the aforementioned notification from such Lender; provided, however, that the aforementioned limitation shall not apply to any such cost, reduction, payment or foregone return of a retroactive nature;

(iii)

provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8.2(a), it shall be a condition to any Lender’s exercise of its rights

- 64 -

under this Section 8.2(a) that such Lender shall generally be exercising similar rights with respect to similarly situated borrowers under similarly affected loans.

For certainty, the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act as well as Basel III and all request, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith shall be deemed to be a “Restraint”, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, promulgated or issued.

(b)

Subject to compliance by the Swiss Borrower with the Non-Bank Rules, each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause it to seek additional amounts from Borrowers pursuant to Section 0, it will use reasonable efforts to make, fund or maintain the affected credit of such Lender through another lending office or take such other actions as it deems appropriate if as a result thereof the additional moneys which would otherwise be required to be paid in respect of such credit pursuant to Section 0, would be reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, funding or maintaining of such affected credit through such other lending office or the taking of such other actions would not otherwise adversely affect such credit or such Lender and would not, in such Xxxxxx’s sole discretion, be commercially unreasonable.

8.3

Replacement of Lenders

(a)

If any Lender (i) but not all of the Lenders who have Individual Commitments seeks additional compensation pursuant to Section 0, (ii) becomes either a Defaulting Lender or a Lender in respect of which any amounts are paid or become payable by Borrowers pursuant to Section 0 or (iii) does not consent to a proposed amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement requested by Borrowers, which requires the consent of all of the affected Lenders to become effective (and which is approved by at least the Majority Lenders) (each such Lender, an “Affected Lender”), then Borrowers may (i) subject to compliance with the Non-Bank Rules, propose a Replacement Lender subject to approval by the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) or (ii) indicate to the Administrative Agent in writing that they desire to replace the Affected Lender with one or more of the other Lenders, and the Administrative Agent shall then forthwith give notice to the other Lenders that any such Lender or Lenders may, in the aggregate, advance all (but not part) of the Affected Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the affected credit and, in the aggregate, assume all (but not part) of the Affected Lender’s Individual Commitment and obligations under the Credit Facility and acquire all (but not part) of the rights of the Affected Lender and assume all (but not part) of the obligations of the Affected Lender under each of the other Credit Documents to the extent they relate to the Credit Facility (but in no event shall any other Lender or the Administrative Agent be obliged to do so). If any satisfactory Replacement Lender shall be obtained or one or more Lenders shall agree in writing to advance all (but not part) of the Affected Xxxxxx’s Pro Rata Share of the affected credit and to acquire and assume all of the Affected Lender’s Individual Commitment (such Replacement Lender or Lender, as the case may be, is herein collectively called the

- 65 -

“Assenting Lenders” and individually called an “Assenting Lender”) with respect to such advance, acquisition and assumption, the Pro Rata Share of such credit of each Assenting Lender and the Individual Commitment and the obligations of such Assenting Lender under the Credit Facility and the rights and obligations of such Assenting Lender under each of the other Credit Documents to the extent they relate to the Credit Facility shall be increased by its respective pro rata share (based on the relative Individual Commitments of the Assenting Lenders) of the Affected Xxxxxx’s Pro Rata Share of such credit and Individual Commitments and obligations under the Credit Facility and rights and obligations under each of the other Credit Documents to the extent they relate to the Credit Facility on a date mutually acceptable to the Assenting Lenders and Borrowers. On such date, the Assenting Lenders shall extend to Borrowers the Affected Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such credit and shall prepay to the Affected Lender the advances of the Affected Lender then outstanding, together with all interest accrued thereon and all other amounts owing to the Affected Lender hereunder, and, upon such advance and prepayment by the Assenting Lenders, the Affected Lender shall cease to be a “Lender” for purposes of this Agreement and shall no longer have any obligations hereunder. Upon the assumption of the Affected Xxxxxx’s Individual Commitment as aforesaid by an Assenting Lender, Schedule A hereto shall be deemed to be amended to increase the Individual Commitment of such Assenting Lender by the amount of such assumption. For certainty, Borrowers shall not be required to pay an Affected Lender that is a Defaulting Lender in respect of breakage costs or other amounts required to be paid as a result of prepayment to such Lender. In the event that an Affected Lender is not replaced pursuant to the foregoing provisions and provided (x) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of any such prepayment and cancellation or would arise immediately thereafter and (y) such prepayment and cancellation is not prohibited by applicable law, Borrowers may, upon five (5) Banking Days’ notice to the Affected Lender and the Administrative Agent, cancel the Individual Commitment of such Affected Lender and prepay advances of such Affected Lender then outstanding, together with all interest accrued thereon and all other amounts owing to such Affected Lender hereunder (such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent), and, upon such notice and prepayment by Borrowers, such Affected Lender shall cease to be a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and shall no longer have any obligations hereunder.

(b)

the repayment or prepayment of any amounts on a day other than the payment dates prescribed herein or in any notice from the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent (provided that if any notice specifies the repayment of a LIBORSOFR Loan at any time other than its maturity date, then Borrowers shall be responsible for any loss, costs or expenses referred to above).

Indemnity

(a)

Borrowers hereby agree to indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent, each Lender, their respective affiliates, successors and assigns and the shareholders, officers, directors, partners, advisors, controlling persons, employees, and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) free and harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, suits, losses, costs, charges, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether such Indemnified Party is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including, without limitation, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal fees (of one primary counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, taken as a whole, and, if necessary, of one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction to such persons, taken as a whole) and out of pocket disbursements and amounts paid in settlement which are approved by Borrowers (collectively in this Section 0, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, the Indemnified Parties or any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (i) the extension of credit contemplated herein, (ii) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of any credit extended hereunder, (iii) any actual or threatened investigation, litigation or other proceeding relating to any credit extended or proposed to be extended as contemplated herein or (iv) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Credit Documents and any instrument, document or agreement executed pursuant hereto or thereto, except, in each case, for any such Indemnified Liabilities (x) that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final non-appealable judgment arose on account of an Indemnified Party’s or such Indemnified Party’s controlled affiliates gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, (y) that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final non- appealable judgment resulted from a material breach by such Indemnified Party of its obligations under this Agreement or other Credit Documents or (z) resulting from any claim, litigation or other proceeding that does not involve an act or omission of any Borrower or any of its Affiliates and that is brought by an Indemnified PersonParty against any other Indemnified PersonParty (other than any claim, litigation or other proceeding against the Administrative Agent, any other agent or arranger in its capacity as such). To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Person party hereto shall assert (and each such Person shall cause

its Subsidiaries not to assert), and each such Person hereby waives, and acknowledges that no other such Person shall have, any claim against any Indemnified PersonParty or against any Obligor or any of their respective equity holders, 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 Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of proceeds thereof; provided that such waiver of special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages shall not limit the indemnification obligations of Borrowers under this Section 8.5(a) to the extent that such special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages are included in any claim by a third party unaffiliated with any of the Indemnified PersonsParties with respect to which the applicable Indemnified PersonParty is entitled to indemnification under this Section 8.5(a).

(b)

Without limiting the generality of the indemnity set out in the preceding clause 0, Borrowers hereby further agree to indemnify and hold the Indemnified Parties free and harmless from and against any and all claims, demand, actions, causes of action, suits, losses, costs, charges, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith, including, without limitation, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal fees (of one primary counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, taken as a whole, and, if necessary, of one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction to such persons, taken as a whole) and out-of-pocket disbursements and amounts paid in settlement which are approved by Borrowers (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), of any and every kind whatsoever paid (collectively in this Section 0, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, the Indemnified Parties or any of them for, with respect to, or as a direct or indirect result of, (i) the presence on or under, or the Release from, any real property legally or beneficially owned (or any estate or interest which is owned), leased, used or operated by a Borrower or any Subsidiary of any Hazardous Material, and (ii) any other violation of an Environmental Law by a Borrower or any Subsidiary, and regardless of whether caused by, or within the control of, such Borrower or such Subsidiary, except for any such Indemnified Liabilities (x) that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final non-appealable judgment arose on account of an Indemnified Party’s or such Indemnified Party’s controlled affiliates gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, (y) that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final non-appealable judgment resulted from a material breach by such Indemnified Party of its obligations under this Agreement or other Credit Documents or (z) resulting from any claim, litigation or other proceeding that does not involve an act or omission of any Borrower or any of its affiliates and that is brought by an Indemnified PersonParty against any other Indemnified PersonParty (other than any claim, litigation or other proceeding against the Administrative Agent, any other agent or arranger in its capacity as such).

(c)

All obligations provided for in this Section 0 shall survive the permanent repayment of the outstanding credit hereunder and the termination of the Creditthis

- 68 -

Agreement. The obligations provided for in this Section 0 shall not be reduced or impaired by any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders.

Borrowers hereby agree that, for the purposes of effectively allocating the risk of loss placed on Borrowers by this Section 0, the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be deemed to be acting as the agent or trustee on behalf of and for the benefit of their respective shareholders, officers, directors, employees and agents.

(e)

If, for any reason, the obligations of Borrowers pursuant to this Section 0 shall be unenforceable, each Borrower agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each obligation that is permissible under applicable Requirement of Law.

(f)

The indemnity under this Section 0 shall not apply to any matters specifically dealt with in Sections 0, 0, 0 or 15.17.

Taxes

(a)

Payments Free of Certain Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Certain Taxes.

(i)

Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Obligor hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes. If applicable Requirements of Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of any applicable Withholding Agent) require the applicable Withholding Agent to withhold or deduct any Tax from or with respect to any such payment, such Tax shall be withheld or deducted in accordance with such Requirements of Law as determined by such Withholding Agent upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below.

(ii)

If the applicable Withholding Agent shall be required by applicable Requirements of Law to withhold or deduct any Taxes, then (A) such Withholding Agent shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by such Withholding Agent to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) such Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, and (C) to the extent that such withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Obligor under any Credit Document or on account of Other Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Obligor shall be increased as necessary so that after such required withholding or the making of all such required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 8.6) the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case

- 69 -

may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made; provided, however, that in the case of a Withholding Agent that is not an Obligor or the Administrative Agent, the amount payable under this clause (C) shall not exceed the amount that would have been required to be paid had an Obligor or the Administrative Agent been the applicable Withholding Agent;

(b)

Payment of Other Taxes by Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of Section 8.6(a), but without duplication, the Obligors shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of any Other Taxes.

(c)

Tax Indemnifications.

(i)

Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 8.6) payable by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, to the extent imposed on or with respect to any payment made by or on account of any obligation of any Obligor under any Credit Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to Borrower Representative 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.

(ii)

Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, each Lender, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify the Obligors and the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, against any and all (i) Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender that are payable by the Obligors or the Administrative Agent (and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or related thereto) as a result of the failure by such Lender to deliver, or as a result of the inaccuracy, inadequacy or deficiency of, any documentation required to be delivered by such Lender to U.S. Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.6(e) and (ii) Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 15.5(b) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, in each case, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent or any Obligor, as the
