Any change in the “base rate” announced by Bank of America (Canada) shall take effect at the opening of business on the day specified in the public announcement of such change. Each interest rate based upon the

Canadian Base Rate shall be adjusted simultaneously with any change in the “base rate”.

Canadian Dilution Percentage: a percentage, calculated at the end of each field examination with respect to the Canadian Facility Collateral by the Agent, reflecting the amount of dilution of Canadian Eligible Accounts that should (based on the results of such field examination), in the determination of the Agent, acting reasonably, be taken into account when calculating the Canadian Borrowing Base; provided that each such percentage shall be represented by a whole number without decimal places. The Canadian Dilution Percentage shall remain in effect from and after each such field examination until the completion of a new field examination and the determination by the Agent of a new Canadian Dilution Percentage, at which time the Canadian Dilution Percentage shall reflect such new field examination and the determination by the Agent of such new Canadian Dilution Percentage.

Canadian Dilution Reserve Percentage: as of any time, the Canadian Dilution Percentage as of such time minus 5%; provided that if the Canadian Dilution Percentage as of such time is below 5%, then the Canadian Dilution Reserve Percentage as of such time shall be deemed to be 0%.

The terms “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section, paragraph or subdivision. Any pronoun used shall be deemed to cover all genders. In the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, “from” means “from and including,” and “to” and “until” each mean “to but excluding.” The terms “including” and “include” shall mean “including, without limitation” and, for purposes of each Loan Document, the parties agree that the rule of ejusdem generis shall not be applicable to limit any provision.

No provision of any Loan Documents shall be construed against any party by reason of such party having, or being deemed to have, drafted the provision.

Whenever any payment, certificate, notice or other delivery shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, the due date for such payment or delivery shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of any LIBOR Loan to be made in the next calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

Each U.S. Revolver Loan shall, at the option of the Loan Party Agent, be made or continued as, or converted into, part of one or more Borrowings that, unless specifically provided herein, shall consist entirely of U.S. Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans. The U.S. Revolver Loans shall be repaid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and shall be secured by all of the U.S. Facility Collateral. Each U.S. Revolver Loan shall be funded and repaid in Dollars.

(b) Canadian Revolver Loans to Canadian Borrower. Each Canadian Lender agrees, severally and not jointly with the other Canadian Lenders, upon the terms and subject to the

conditions set forth herein, to make Canadian Revolver Loans to the Canadian Borrower on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date to the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date, not to exceed in aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time, such Canadian Lender’s Canadian Revolver Commitment at such time, which Canadian Revolver Loans may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Canadian Lenders shall have no obligation to the Canadian Borrower whatsoever to honor any request for a Canadian Revolver Loan on or after the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date or if the amount of the proposed Canadian Revolver Loan exceeds the Canadian Availability on the proposed funding date for such Canadian Revolver Loan. Each Borrowing of Canadian Revolver Loans shall be funded by the Canadian Lenders on a Pro Rata basis. The Canadian Revolver Loans shall bear interest as set forth in Section 3.1.

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

2.1.2 Revolver Notes. The Revolver Loans made by each Lender and interest accruing thereon shall be evidenced by the records of the Agent and such Lender.

than funding losses payable pursuant to Section 3.9). If the U.S. Borrower elects to reduce to zero or terminate the U.S. Revolver Commitments pursuant to the previous sentence, the Canadian Revolver Commitments shall automatically terminate concurrently with the termination of the U.S. Revolver Commitments. Any notice of termination given by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.1.4 shall be irrevocable; provided, however, that notice may be contingent on the occurrence of a refinancing or the consummation of a sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of assets and may be revoked or the termination date deferred if the refinancing or sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of assets does not occur. On the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date, the Canadian Facility Loan Parties shall make Full Payment of all Canadian Facility Obligations.

Without limiting the foregoing, (A) each reduction in the Maximum Canadian Facility Amount and the Canadian Revolver Commitments shall in no event exceed Canadian Availability and be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 and increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and (B) each reduction in the Maximum U.S. Facility Amount and the U.S. Revolver Commitments shall in no event exceed U.S. Availability and be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 and increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

(a) If at any time (a) the Canadian Revolver Exposure exceeds the Canadian Borrowing Base (a “Canadian Overadvance”) or (b) the U.S. Revolver Exposure exceeds the U.S. Borrowing Base (a “U.S. Overadvance”), the excess amount shall, subject to Section 5.2, be immediately due and payable by the Canadian Borrower or the U.S. Borrower, as applicable on demand by the Agent. Unless its authority has been revoked in writing by Required Lenders, the Agent may require the Applicable Lenders to honor requests for Overadvance Loans and to forbear from requiring the applicable Borrower(s) to cure an Overadvance, (a) when no other Event of Default is known to the Agent, as long as (i) the Overadvance does not continue for more than thirty (30) consecutive days (and no Overadvance may exist for at least five (5) consecutive days thereafter before further Overadvance Loans are required), and (ii) the

Overadvance is not known by the Agent to exceed 5% of the Canadian Borrowing Base with respect to the Canadian Borrower, or 5% of the U.S. Borrowing Base with respect to the U.S. Borrower; and (b) regardless of whether an Event of Default exists, if the Agent discovers an Overadvance not previously known by it to exist, as long as from the date of such discovery the Overadvance (i) is not increased by more than 2.50% of the Canadian Borrowing Base with respect to the Canadian Borrower, or 2.50% of the U.S. Borrowing Base with respect to the U.S. Borrower, and (ii) does not continue for more than thirty (30) consecutive days. In no event shall Overadvance Loans be required that would cause (i) the Canadian Revolver Exposure to exceed the aggregate Canadian Revolver Commitments or (ii) the U.S. Revolver Exposure to exceed the aggregate U.S. Revolver Commitments. All Canadian Overadvance Loans shall constitute Canadian Facility Obligations secured by the Canadian Facility Collateral and shall be entitled to all benefits of the Loan Documents. All U.S. Overadvance Loans shall constitute U.S. Facility Obligations secured by the U.S. Facility Collateral and shall be entitled to all benefits of the Loan Documents. Any funding of an Overadvance Loan or sufferance of an Overadvance shall not constitute a waiver by the Agent or the Lenders of the Event of Default caused thereby. In no event shall any Borrower or other Loan Party be deemed a beneficiary of this Section nor authorized to enforce any of its terms.

2.1.6 Protective Advances. The Agent shall be authorized, in its discretion, at any time that any conditions in Section 6 are not satisfied, to make U.S. Base Rate Revolver Loans and Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as applicable (each a “Protective Advance”) (a) up to an aggregate amount of 10% of the Canadian Borrowing Base with respect to the Canadian Borrower, or 10% of the U.S. Borrowing Base with respect to the U.S. Borrower, outstanding at any time, if the Agent deems such Loans necessary or desirable to preserve or protect Collateral, or to enhance the collectability or repayment of Obligations, including to meet payroll; or (b) to pay any other amounts chargeable to the Loan Parties under any Loan Documents, including costs, fees and expenses. In no event shall Protective Advances be required that would cause (x) the outstanding U.S. Revolver Loans and U.S. LC Obligations to exceed the aggregate U.S. Commitments or (y) the outstanding Canadian Revolver Loans and Canadian LC Obligations to exceed the aggregate Canadian Commitments. Each Applicable Lender shall participate in each Protective Advance on a Pro Rata basis. Required Facility Lenders may at any time revoke the Agent’s authority to make further Protective Advances to any Borrower by written notice to the Agent. Absent such revocation, the Agent’s determination that funding of a Protective Advance is appropriate shall be conclusive. All Protective Advances made by the Agent with respect to U.S. Facility Loan Parties shall be U.S. Facility Obligations, secured by the U.S. Facility Collateral and shall be treated for all purposes as Extraordinary Expenses and all Protective Advances made by the Agent with respect to Canadian Facility Loan Parties shall be Canadian Facility Obligations, secured by the Canadian Facility Collateral and shall be treated for all purposes as Extraordinary Expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the aggregate amount of the Protective Advances under this Section 2.1.6 and Overadvances under Section 2.1.5 exceed 10% of the Line Cap at any time without the prior written consent of all Lenders.

2.1.7 Adjustment of Revolver Commitments.

(a) The Borrowers may, by written notice to the Agent, request that the Agent and the Lenders increase or decrease the Maximum Canadian Facility Amount (a “Canadian Revolver Commitment Adjustment”), which request shall be granted provided that each of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) only one (1) Canadian Revolver Commitment Adjustment may be

made in any Fiscal Year (such adjustment to be made within thirty (30) days of the delivery of the Compliance Certificate contemplated by Section 10.1.1(b) for the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter and a Borrowing Base Certificate contemplated by Section 8.1 for the most recently ended month), (ii) the written request for a Canadian Revolver Commitment Adjustment must be received by the Agent at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) of the effectiveness of such Canadian Revolver Commitment Adjustment (such date of effectiveness, the “Adjustment Date”), (iii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the date of such request or both immediately before and after giving effect thereto as of the Adjustment Date, (iv) any increase in the Maximum Canadian Facility Amount shall result in a Dollar-for-Dollar decrease in the Maximum U.S. Facility Amount, and vice-versa for any decrease in the Maximum Canadian Facility Amount pursuant to this Section, (v) in no event shall the Canadian Revolver Commitment plus the U.S. Revolver Commitment (in each case after giving effect to such proposed Canadian Revolver Commitment Adjustment) exceed the Maximum Facility Amount, (vi) in no event shall the Canadian Revolver Commitment (after giving effect to such proposed Canadian Revolver Commitment Adjustment) exceed $125,000,000, (vii) the Maximum Canadian Facility Amount shall at no time exceed $125,000,000, (viii) no Canadian Revolver Commitment Adjustment shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto, an Overadvance would exist, (ix) U.S. Availability after giving effect thereto would equal or exceed 20% of the U.S. Borrowing Base, and (x) the Agent shall have received a certificate of the Loan Party Agent dated as of the Adjustment Date certifying the satisfaction of all such conditions (including calculations thereof in reasonable detail) and otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. Any such Canadian Revolver Commitment Adjustment shall be in an amount equal to $5,000,000 or a multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and shall concurrently increase or reduce, as applicable, (1) the aggregate U.S. Revolver Commitments then in effect Pro Rata among the U.S. Lenders and (2) the aggregate Canadian Revolver Commitments then in effect Pro Rata among the Canadian Lenders. After giving effect to any Canadian Revolver Commitment Adjustment, the Canadian Revolver Commitment of each Canadian Lender (and the percentage of each Canadian Revolving Loan that each Participant must purchase a Canadian Revolving Loan Participation in) shall be equal to such Canadian Lender’s (or Participant’s) Pro Rata Share of the amount of the Maximum Canadian Facility Amount.

(b) The Agent shall promptly inform the Lenders of any request for a Canadian Revolver Commitment Adjustment made by the Borrowers. If the conditions set forth in clause (a) above are not satisfied on the applicable Adjustment Date (or, to the extent such conditions relate to an earlier date, such earlier date), the Agent shall notify the Loan Party Agent in writing that the requested Canadian Revolver Commitment Adjustment will not be effectuated; provided, however, that the Agent shall in all cases be entitled to rely (without liability) on the certificate delivered by the Loan Party Agent pursuant to clause (a)(x) immediately above in making its determination as to the satisfaction of such conditions. On each Adjustment Date, the Agent shall notify the Lenders and the Loan Party Agent, on or before 3:00 p.m. (Boston time), by telecopier, e-mail or telex, of the occurrence of the Canadian Revolver Commitment Adjustment to be effected on such Adjustment Date, the amount of Revolving Loans held by each Lender as a result thereof, the amount of the U.S. Revolver Commitment of each U.S. Lender and the amount of the Canadian Revolver Commitment of each Canadian Lender (and the percentage of each Canadian Revolving Loan that each Participant must purchase a participation interest in) as a result thereof.

2.1.8 Incremental Commitments.

(a) Except as set forth below, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at any one time prior to the Facility Termination Date, the U.S. Borrower may request, pursuant to the procedure set forth in this Section 2.1.8(a), the addition of the U.S. Incremental Facility, which shall be added to and increase the original aggregate amount of the U.S. Revolver Commitments and pursuant to which the U.S. Borrower may request incremental U.S. Revolver Loans (each, a “U.S. Incremental Loan”) pursuant to Section 2.1.1(a); provided, however, that the sum of all U.S. Incremental Commitments and all Canadian Incremental Commitments shall not exceed the Maximum Incremental Amount. The U.S. Borrower shall give the Agent not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice of its request for the U.S. Incremental Facility, unless a shorter period of notice is agreed to by the Agent. The U.S. Incremental Facility shall:

(i) have such fees as may be agreed by the U.S. Borrower, the Agent and the Lender(s) providing such U.S. Incremental Loans pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.1.8(a); and

(ii) except as specifically provided in this Section 2.1.8(a), otherwise have all of the same terms and conditions as the U.S. Revolver Loans.

In addition, unless otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, all references in the Loan Documents to U.S. Revolver Loans shall be deemed, as the context requires, to include references to U.S. Incremental Loans made pursuant to this Agreement. The U.S. Borrower shall have no obligation to offer to existing Lenders the opportunity to subscribe to the U.S. Incremental Facility, and no existing Lender will have an obligation to make a U.S. Incremental Loan unless and until it expressly commits to do so in writing. The U.S. Borrower shall have the right to cause the U.S. Incremental Loans to be made by a new Lender identified by the U.S. Borrower that is an Eligible Assignee and is reasonably acceptable to the Agent, provided that any such new Lender shall be required to comply with Section 13.3.

(b) Except as set forth below, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at any one time prior to the Facility Termination Date, the Canadian Borrower may request, pursuant to the procedure set forth in this Section 2.1.8(b), the addition of the Canadian Incremental Facility, which shall be added to and increase the original aggregate amount of the Canadian Revolver Commitments and pursuant to which the Canadian Borrower may request incremental Canadian Revolver Loans (each, a “Canadian Incremental Loan”) pursuant to Section 2.1.1(b); provided, however, that the sum of all U.S. Incremental Commitments and all Canadian Incremental Commitments shall not exceed the Maximum Incremental Amount. The Canadian Borrower shall give the Agent not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice of its request for the Canadian Incremental Facility, unless a shorter period of notice is agreed to by the Agent. The Canadian Incremental Facility shall:

(i) have such fees as may be agreed by the Canadian Borrower, the Agent and the Lender(s) providing such Canadian Incremental Loans pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.1.8(b); and

(ii) except as specifically provided in this Section 2.1.8(b), otherwise have all of the same terms and conditions as the Canadian Revolver Loans.

In addition, unless otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, all references in the Loan Documents to Canadian Revolver Loans shall be deemed, as the context requires, to include references to Canadian Incremental Loans made pursuant to this Agreement. The Canadian Borrower shall have no obligation to offer to existing Lenders the opportunity to subscribe to the Canadian Incremental Facility, and no existing Lender will have an obligation to make a Canadian Incremental Loan unless and until it expressly commits to do so in writing. The Canadian Borrower shall have the right to cause the Canadian Incremental Loans to be made by a new Lender identified by the Canadian Borrower that is an Eligible Assignee and is reasonably acceptable to the Agent, provided that any such new Lender shall be required to comply with Section 13.3.

(c) Incremental Commitments in respect of Incremental Loans shall become Commitments under this Agreement pursuant to (i) an amendment (each, an “Incremental Loan Amendment”) to this Agreement executed by the Borrowers, each Lender or other financial institution approved by the Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) agreeing to provide such Incremental Commitment (and no other Lender shall be required to execute such amendment) and the Agent, and (ii) any amendments to the other Loan Documents (executed by the relevant Loan Party and the Agent only) as the Agent shall reasonably deem appropriate to effect such purpose. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the effectiveness of such Incremental Loan Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 6.2(a), (b) and (c), unless waived by the Agent.

2.2 U.S. Letter of Credit Facility.

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

(a) The U.S. Borrower acknowledges that U.S. Issuing Bank’s willingness to issue any U.S. Letter of Credit is conditioned upon U.S. Issuing Bank’s receipt of an LC Application with respect to the requested U.S. Letter of Credit, as well as such other instruments and agreements as U.S. Issuing Bank may customarily require for issuance of a letter of credit of similar type and amount. U.S. Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue any U.S. Letter of Credit unless (i) U.S. Issuing Bank receives an LC Request and LC Application at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance; (ii) each LC Condition is satisfied; and (iii) if a Defaulting Lender that is a U.S. Lender exists, such Defaulting Lender or the U.S. Borrower have entered into arrangements satisfactory to the Agent and U.S. Issuing Bank to eliminate any funding risk associated with such Defaulting Lender (it being understood that Cash Collateralization of a Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata share of the requested U.S. Letter of Credit is satisfactory to the Agent and U.S. Issuing Bank). If U.S. Issuing Bank receives written notice from a U.S. Lender at least five (5) Business Days before issuance of a U.S. Letter of Credit that any LC Condition has not been satisfied, U.S. Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue the requested U.S. Letter of Credit (or any other) until such notice is withdrawn in writing by that Lender or until the Required Facility Lenders have waived such condition in accordance with this Agreement. Prior to receipt of any such notice, U.S. Issuing Bank shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any failure of LC Conditions.

(b) Letters of Credit may be requested by the U.S. Borrower only (i) to support obligations of a U.S. Domiciled Loan Party incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business; or (ii) for other purposes as the Agent may approve from time to time in writing. The renewal or extension of any U.S. Letter of Credit shall be treated as the issuance of a new U.S. Letter of Credit, except that delivery of a new LC Application may be required at the discretion of U.S. Issuing Bank.

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

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

(e) If the U.S. Borrower so requests in any applicable LC Application, U.S. Issuing Bank may, in its discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, a “U.S. Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such U.S. Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit U.S. Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “U.S. Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by U.S. Issuing Bank, the U.S. Borrower

shall not be required to make a specific request to U.S. Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once a U.S. Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the U.S. Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require), U.S. Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Facility Termination Date; provided, however, that U.S. Issuing Bank shall not permit any such extension if (A) U.S. Issuing Bank has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof, or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven (7) Business Days before the U.S. Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Agent, any Lender or the U.S. Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 6.2 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing U.S. Issuing Bank not to permit such extension.

(f) By their execution of this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that on the Closing Date (without any further action by any Person), the Existing Letters of Credit as listed on Schedule 1.1(b) shall be deemed to have been issued by U.S. Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the rights and obligations of U.S. Issuing Bank and the account party thereunder shall be subject to the terms hereof.

2.2.2 U.S. Letters of Credit; Reimbursement and Participations.

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

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

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

(d) No Issuing Bank Indemnitee shall be liable to any Loan Party or other Person for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with any LC Documents except as a result of U.S. Issuing Bank’s actual gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. U.S. Issuing Bank shall not have any liability to any U.S. Lender if U.S. Issuing Bank refrains from any action under any U.S. Letter of Credit or LC Documents until it receives written instructions from the Required Facility Lenders to the U.S. Borrower.

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

2.3 Canadian Letter of Credit Facility.

2.3.1 Issuance of Letters of Credit. Canadian Issuing Bank agrees to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Canadian Borrower (“Canadian Letters of Credit”) from time to time until fifteen (15) days prior to the Facility Termination Date (or until the Canadian

Revolver Commitment Termination Date, if earlier), on the terms set forth herein, including the following:

(a) The Canadian Borrower acknowledges that Canadian Issuing Bank’s willingness to issue any Canadian Letter of Credit is conditioned upon Canadian Issuing Bank’s receipt of an LC Application with respect to the requested Canadian Letter of Credit, as well as such other instruments and agreements as Canadian Issuing Bank may customarily require for issuance of a letter of credit of similar type and amount. Canadian Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue any Canadian Letter of Credit unless (i) Canadian Issuing Bank receives an LC Request and LC Application at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance; (ii) each LC Condition is satisfied; and (iii) if a Defaulting Lender that is a Canadian Lender exists, such Defaulting Lender or the Canadian Borrower have entered into arrangements satisfactory to the Agent and Canadian Issuing Bank to eliminate any funding risk associated with such Defaulting Lender (it being understood that Cash Collateralization of a Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata share of the requested Canadian Letter of Credit is satisfactory to the Agent and Canadian Issuing Bank). If Canadian Issuing Bank receives written notice from a Canadian Lender at least five (5) Business Days before issuance of a Canadian Letter of Credit that any LC Condition has not been satisfied, Canadian Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue the requested Canadian Letter of Credit (or any other) until such notice is withdrawn in writing by that Lender or until the Required Facility Lenders have waived such condition in accordance with this Agreement. Prior to receipt of any such notice, Canadian Issuing Bank shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any failure of LC Conditions.

(b) Letters of Credit may be requested by the Loan Party Agent for the account of Canadian Borrower only (i) to support obligations of a Canadian Domiciled Loan Party incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business; or (ii) for other purposes as the Agent may approve from time to time in writing. The renewal or extension of any Canadian Letter of Credit shall be treated as the issuance of a new Canadian Letter of Credit, except that delivery of a new LC Application may be required at the discretion of Canadian Issuing Bank.

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

and remedies of each beneficiary whose claims against the Canadian Borrower are discharged with proceeds of any Canadian Letter of Credit issued for the account of the Canadian Borrower.

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

(e) If the Canadian Borrower so requests in any applicable LC Application, Canadian Issuing Bank may, in its discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, a “Canadian Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Canadian Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit Canadian Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Canadian Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by Canadian Issuing Bank, the Canadian Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to Canadian Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once a Canadian Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Canadian Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) Canadian Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Facility Termination Date; provided, however, that Canadian Issuing Bank shall not permit any such extension if (A) Canadian Issuing Bank has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof, or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven (7) Business Days before the Canadian Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Agent, any Lender or the Canadian Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 6.2 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing Canadian Issuing Bank not to permit such extension.

2.3.2 Canadian Letters of Credit; Reimbursement and Participations.

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

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

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

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

(d) No Issuing Bank Indemnitee shall be liable to any Loan Party or other Person for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with any LC Documents except as a result of Canadian Issuing Bank’s actual gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Canadian Issuing Bank shall not have any liability to any Canadian Lender if Canadian Issuing Bank refrains from any

action under any Canadian Letter of Credit or LC Documents until it receives written instructions from the Required Facility Lenders to the Canadian Borrower.

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

SECTION 3. INTEREST; FEES AND CHARGES

3.1 Interest.

3.1.1 Rates and Payment of Interest.

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

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

(c) During the continuation of any Event of Default, if Required Lenders in their discretion so elect, all Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate (whether before or after any judgment); provided, however, that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 11.1(a) or 11.1(f), the Default Rate shall become immediately applicable without any election of the Required Lenders. Each Loan Party acknowledges that the cost and expense to the Agent and the Lenders due to an Event of Default are difficult to

ascertain and that the Default Rate is a fair and reasonable estimate to compensate the Agent and the Lenders therefor.

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

3.1.2 Application of LIBOR to Outstanding Loans.

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

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

3.1.3 Application of Canadian BA Rate to Outstanding Loans.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

3.2 Fees.

3.2.1 Unused Line Fee.

(a) The Canadian Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of the Canadian Lenders, a fee equal to (i) for any period during which the Canadian Revolver Exposure is less than 50% of the Canadian Revolver Commitments, .50% per annum times the average daily amount by which the Canadian Revolver Commitments exceed the Canadian Revolver Exposure during such period, and (ii) for any period during which the Canadian Revolver Exposure is equal to or greater than 50% of the Canadian Revolver Commitments, .375% per annum times the average daily amount by which the Canadian Revolver Commitments exceed the Canadian Revolver Exposure during such period. Such fee shall be payable in arrears, on the first day of January, April, July and October of each year and on the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date.

(b) The U.S. Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of the U.S. Lenders, a fee equal to (i) for any period during which the U.S. Revolver Exposure is less than

50% of the U.S. Revolver Commitments, .50% per annum times the average daily amount by which the U.S. Revolver Commitments exceed the U.S. Revolver Exposure during such period and (ii) for any period during which the U.S. Revolver Exposure is equal to or greater than 50% of the U.S. Revolver Commitments, .375% per annum times the average daily amount by which the U.S. Revolver Commitments exceed the U.S. Revolver Exposure during such period. Such fee shall be payable in arrears, on the first day of January, April, July and October of each year and on the U.S. Revolver Commitment Termination Date.

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

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

3.2.4 Other Fees. The U.S. Borrower shall pay such other fees as described in the Fee Letter.

3.3 Computation of Interest; Fees; Yield Protection. All interest, as well as fees and other charges calculated on a per annum basis, shall be computed for the actual days elapsed, based on a year of 360 days, or, in the case of interest based on the Canadian Prime Rate or Canadian Base Rate, on the basis of a 365 day year. Each determination by the Agent of any interest, fees or interest rate hereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. All fees shall be fully earned when due and shall not be subject to rebate, refund or proration. All fees payable under Section 3.2 are compensation for services and are not, and shall not be deemed to be, interest or any other charge for the use, forbearance or detention of money. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail amounts payable by any Borrower under Section 3.4, 3.7, 3.9, 5.9.2 or 10.1.20, submitted to the Loan Party Agent by the

Agent or the affected Lender or the affected Issuing Bank, as applicable, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and such Borrower shall pay such amounts to the appropriate party within ten (10) days following receipt of the certificate. For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest to which any rate calculated on the basis of a period of time different from the actual number of days in the year (360 days, for example) is equivalent is the stated rate multiplied by the actual number of days in the year (365 or 366, as applicable) and divided by the number of days in the shorter period (360 days, in the example), and the parties hereto acknowledge that there is a material distinction between the nominal and effective rates of interest and that they are capable of making the calculations necessary to compare such rates and that the calculations herein are to be made using the nominal rate method and not on any basis that gives effect to the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest.

3.4 Reimbursement Obligations. Each Borrower shall reimburse the Agent for all Extraordinary Expenses incurred by the Agent in reference to such Borrower or its related Loan Party Group Obligations or Collateral of its related Loan Party Group. In addition to such Extraordinary Expenses, such Borrower shall also reimburse the Agent for all legal, accounting, appraisal, consulting, and other documented fees, costs and expenses, without duplication, incurred by it in connection with (a) negotiation and preparation of any Loan Documents, including any amendment or other modification thereof; (b) administration of and actions relating to any Collateral for its Obligations, Loan Documents and transactions contemplated thereby, including any actions taken to perfect or maintain priority of the Agent’s Liens on any such Collateral, to maintain any insurance required hereunder or to verify such Collateral; and (c) each inspection, audit or appraisal with respect to any Loan Party within such Borrower’s related Loan Party Group or Collateral securing such Loan Party Group’s Obligations, whether prepared by the Agent’s personnel or a third party. All reasonable legal, accounting and consulting fees and expenses incurred by Agent Professionals in reference to a Borrower’s related Loan Party Group or its related Loan Party Group Obligations or Collateral of such Borrower’s related Loan Party Group shall be charged to such Borrower at the actual rate charged by such Agent Professionals. If, for any reason (including inaccurate reporting on financial statements or a Compliance Certificate), it is determined that a higher Applicable Margin should have applied to a period than was actually applied, then the proper margin shall be applied retroactively and the Borrowers shall pay to the Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of the Lenders, an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest and fees that would have accrued using the proper margin and the amount actually paid. All amounts payable by the Borrowers under this Section 3.4 shall be due and payable in accordance with Section 3.3.

3.5 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Interest Period Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon LIBOR or the Canadian BA Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, or Canadian Dollars through bankers’ acceptances then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Interest Period Loans or to convert Floating Rate Loans to Interest Period Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon delivery of such notice, the affected Borrower shall prepay or, if applicable, convert all Interest Period Loans of such Lender to Floating Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may

lawfully continue to maintain such Interest Period Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Interest Period Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the affected Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. If any Lender invokes this Section 3.5, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to notify the Loan Party Agent and the Agent when the conditions giving rise to such action no longer exists, provided, however, that such Lender shall have no liability to the Borrowers or to any other Person for its failure to provide such notice.

3.6 Inability to Determine Rates. If Required Lenders notify the Agent for any reason in connection with a request for a Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, an Interest Period Loan that (a) Dollar deposits or bankers’ acceptances are not being offered to, as regards LIBOR, banks in the London interbank Eurodollar market or, as regards Canadian BA Rate, Persons in Canada, for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining LIBOR or the Canadian BA Rate for the requested Interest Period, or (c) LIBOR or the Canadian BA Rate for the requested Interest Period does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, then the Agent will promptly so notify the Loan Party Agent and each Applicable Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Applicable Lenders to make or maintain affected Interest Period Loans shall be suspended until the Agent (upon instruction by Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Loan Party Agent may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, an Interest Period Loan or, failing that, will be deemed to have submitted a request for a Floating Rate Loan. If any Lender invokes this Section 3.6, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to notify the Loan Party Agent and the Agent when the conditions giving rise to such action no longer exists, provided, however, that such Lender shall have no liability to the Borrowers or to any other Person for its failure to provide such notice.

3.7 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.

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

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

(b) subject any Lender or any Issuing Bank to any Tax with respect to any Loan, Loan Document, Letter of Credit or participation in LC Obligations, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or Issuing Bank in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 5.9 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or Issuing Bank); or

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

and the result thereof shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Interest Period Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to

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

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

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

3.8 Mitigation. If any Lender gives a notice under Section 3.5 or requests compensation under Section 3.7, or if any Borrower is required to pay additional amounts with respect to a Lender under Section 5.9, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (a) would eliminate the need for such notice or reduce amounts payable or to be withheld in the future, as applicable; and (b) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Each affected Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender that has issued a Commitment to such Borrower in connection with any such designation or assignment.

3.9 Funding Losses. If for any reason (other than default by a Lender) (a) any Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, an Interest Period Loan does not occur on the date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn), (b) any repayment or conversion of an Interest Period Loan occurs on a day other than the end of its Interest Period, or (c) any Borrower fails to repay an Interest Period Loan when required hereunder, then such Borrower shall pay to the Agent its customary administrative charge and to each Lender all losses and expenses that it sustains as a

consequence thereof, including any loss or expense arising from liquidation or redeployment of funds or from fees payable to terminate deposits of matching funds, but excluding loss of margin. All amounts payable by the Borrowers under this Section 3.9 shall be due and payable in accordance with Section 3.3. The Lenders shall not be required to purchase Dollar deposits in the London interbank market or any other offshore Dollar market to fund any LIBOR Loan, but the provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as if each Lender had purchased such deposits to fund its LIBOR Loans.

3.10 Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by Applicable Law (“maximum rate”). If the Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the maximum rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Obligations of the Borrower to which such excess interest relates or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to such Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by the Agent or a Lender exceeds the maximum rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest; (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.10, if any provision of any of the Loan Documents would obligate any Canadian Domiciled Loan Party to make any payment of interest with respect to the Canadian Facility Obligations in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by Applicable Law or would result in the receipt of interest with respect to the Canadian Facility Obligations at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rates shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in a receipt by the applicable recipient of interest with respect to the Canadian Facility Obligations at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, as follows: (i) first, by reducing the amount or rates of interest required to be paid by the Canadian Facility Loan Parties to the applicable recipient under the Loan Documents; and (ii) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid by the Canadian Facility Loan Parties to the applicable recipient which would constitute interest with respect to the Canadian Facility Obligations for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if the applicable recipient shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by that section of the Criminal Code (Canada), then the Canadian Facility Loan Parties shall be entitled, by notice in writing to the Agent, to obtain reimbursement from the applicable recipient in an amount equal to such excess, and pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by the applicable recipient to the applicable Canadian Facility Loan Party. Any amount or rate of interest with respect to the Canadian Facility Obligations referred to in this Section 3.10 shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term that any Canadian Revolver Loans to the Canadian Borrower remains outstanding on the assumption that any charges, fees or expenses that fall within the meaning of “interest” (as defined in the Criminal Code (Canada)) shall, if they relate to a specific period of time, be pro rated over that period of time and otherwise be pro rated over the period from the Closing Date to the date of Full Payment of the Canadian Facility Obligations, and, in

the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Agent shall be conclusive for the purposes of such determination.

SECTION 4. LOAN ADMINISTRATION

4.1 Manner of Borrowing and Funding Loans.

4.1.1 Notice of Borrowing.

(a) Whenever a Borrower desires funding of a Borrowing of Revolver Loans, the Loan Party Agent shall give the Agent a Notice of Borrowing. Such notice must be received by Agent no later than 12:00 p.m. (i) on the Business Day of the requested funding date, in the case of Floating Rate Loans, (ii) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested funding date, in the case of LIBOR Loans, and (iii) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested funding date, in the case of Canadian BA Rate Loans. Notices received after 11:00 a.m. shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) the amount of the Borrowing, (B) the requested funding date (which must be a Business Day), (C) whether the Borrowing is to be made as a U.S. Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Revolver Loan, in the case of the U.S. Borrower, or a Canadian Base Rate Loan, LIBOR Revolver Loan, Canadian Prime Rate Loan or Canadian BA Rate Loan, in the case of the Canadian Borrower, (D) in the case of Interest Period Loans, the duration of the applicable Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be 30 days if not specified), (E) the Facility Commitment under which such Borrowing is proposed to be made and, if such Borrowing is requested for the Canadian Borrower, whether such Loan is to be denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars, and (F) as of the proposed date of such Borrowing, the aggregate amount of Debt that the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries are or will be permitted to incur pursuant to clause 2 of the definition of “Permitted Indebtedness” as set forth in the Senior High Yield Indenture.

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

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

the case of insufficient funds owing by a Canadian Facility Loan Party. The proceeds of such Revolver Loans may be disbursed directly to the controlled disbursement account or other appropriate account.

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

4.1.3 Swingline Loans; Settlement.

(a) The Agent may, but shall not be obligated to (and shall not to the extent that it has actual knowledge that the conditions in Section 6 have not been satisfied), advance U.S. Swingline Loans to the U.S. Borrower, up to an aggregate outstanding amount equal to 10% of the U.S. Revolver Commitments at such time, unless the funding is specifically required to be made by all U.S. Lenders hereunder. Each U.S. Swingline Loan shall constitute a U.S. Revolver Loan for all purposes (including, without limitation, Section 2.1), except that payments thereon shall be made to the Agent for its own account. The obligation of the U.S. Borrower to repay U.S. Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by the records of the Agent and need not be evidenced by any promissory note. All U.S. Swingline Loans shall be denominated in Dollars and shall be U.S. Base Rate Loans.

(b) To facilitate administration of the U.S. Revolver Loans, the U.S. Lenders and the Agent agree (which agreement is solely among them, and not for the benefit of or enforceable by any Borrower) that settlement among them with respect to U.S. Swingline Loans and other U.S. Revolver Loans may take place on a date determined from time to time by the Agent, which shall occur at least once each week. On each settlement date, settlement shall be made with each U.S. Lender in accordance with the Settlement Report delivered by the Agent to the U.S. Lenders. Between settlement dates, the Agent may in its discretion apply payments on U.S. Revolver Loans to U.S. Swingline Loans, regardless of any designation by the U.S. Borrower or any

provision herein to the contrary. Each U.S. Lender’s obligation to make settlements with the Agent is absolute and unconditional, without offset, counterclaim or other defense, and whether or not the U.S. Revolver Commitments have terminated, a U.S. Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied. If, due to an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to the U.S. Borrower or otherwise, any U.S. Swingline Loan may not be settled among the U.S. Lenders hereunder, then each U.S. Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from the Agent a Pro Rata participation in each unpaid U.S. Swingline Loan and shall transfer the amount of such participation to the Agent, in immediately available funds, within one (1) Business Day after the Agent’s request therefor.

(c) The Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, request that Bank of America (Canada) advance Canadian Swingline Loans to the Canadian Borrower, up to an aggregate outstanding amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of 10% of the Canadian Revolver Commitments at such time, unless the funding is specifically required to be made by all Canadian Lenders hereunder. Each Canadian Swingline Loan shall constitute a Canadian Revolver Loan for all purposes, except that payments thereon shall be made to the Agent for Bank of America (Canada)’s account. The obligation of the Canadian Borrower to repay Canadian Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by the records of the Agent and need not be evidenced by any promissory note. All Canadian Swingline Loans shall be denominated in Canadian Dollars and shall be Canadian Prime Rate Loans.

(d) To facilitate administration of the Canadian Revolver Loans, the Canadian Lenders and the Agent, on behalf of Bank of America (Canada), agree (which agreement is solely among them, and not for the benefit of or enforceable by any Borrower) that settlement among them with respect to Canadian Swingline Loans and other Canadian Revolver Loans may take place on a date determined from time to time by the Agent, which shall occur at least once each week. On each settlement date, settlement shall be made with each Canadian Lender in accordance with the Settlement Report delivered by the Agent to the Canadian Lenders. Between settlement dates, the Agent may in its discretion apply payments on Canadian Revolver Loans to Canadian Swingline Loans, regardless of any designation by the Canadian Borrower or any provision herein to the contrary. Each Canadian Lender’s obligation to make settlements with the Agent, on behalf of Bank of America (Canada), is absolute and unconditional, without offset, counterclaim or other defense, and whether or not the Canadian Revolver Commitments have terminated, a Canadian Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied. If, due to an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to the Canadian Borrower or otherwise, any Canadian Swingline Loan may not be settled among Canadian Lenders hereunder, then each Canadian Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from the Agent a Pro Rata participation in each unpaid Canadian Swingline Loan and shall transfer the amount of such participation to the Agent, in immediately available funds, within one (1) Business Day after Agent’s request therefor.

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

its understanding of telephonic or e-mailed instructions from a person believed in good faith by the Agent or any Lender to be a person authorized to give such instructions on the Loan Party Agent’s behalf.

4.2 Defaulting Lender. The Agent may (but shall not be required to), in its discretion, retain any payments or other funds received by the Agent that are to be provided to a Defaulting Lender hereunder, and may apply such funds to such Lender’s defaulted obligations to satisfy such Lender’s obligations hereunder until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, or readvance the funds to the Borrower to which such Lender has issued a Facility Commitment in accordance with this Agreement. The failure of any Lender to fund a Loan, to make any payment in respect of LC Obligations or to otherwise perform its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations, and no Lender shall be responsible for default by another Lender. The Lenders and the Agent agree (which agreement is solely among them, and not for the benefit of or enforceable by any Borrower) that, solely for purposes of determining a Defaulting Lender’s right to vote on matters relating to the Loan Documents and to share in payments, fees and Collateral proceeds thereunder, a Defaulting Lender shall not be deemed to be a “Lender” until all its defaulted obligations have been cured.

4.3 Number and Amount of Interest Period Loans; Determination of Rate. For ease of administration, all Interest Period Loans of the same Type to a Borrower having the same length and beginning date of their Interest Periods and the same currency shall be aggregated together, and such Loans shall be allocated among the Applicable Lenders on a Pro Rata basis. With respect to the U.S. Borrower, no more than five (5) Borrowings of LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at any time, and each Borrowing of LIBOR Loans when made, continued or converted shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 or an increment of $500,000, in excess thereof. With respect to the Canadian Borrower, no more than five (5) Borrowings of Interest Period Loans may be outstanding at any time, and each Borrowing of Interest Loans when made, continued or converted shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 (or, in the case of Canadian BA Rate Loans, Cdn$1,000,000) or an increment of $500,000 (or, in the case of Canadian BA Rate Loans, Cdn$500,000), in excess thereof. Upon determining LIBOR or the Canadian BA Rate for any Interest Period requested by a Borrower, the Agent shall promptly notify the Loan Party Agent thereof by telephone or electronically and, if requested by the Loan Party Agent, shall confirm any telephonic notice in writing.

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

communication, representation, agreement or undertaking made on its behalf by the Loan Party Agent shall be binding upon and enforceable against it.

4.5 One Obligation. Without in any way limiting the Obligations of any Loan Party with respect to its Guarantee of the Loan Party Group Obligations of another Loan Party Group, the Loan Party Group Obligations owing by each Loan Party Group shall constitute one general obligation of the Loan Parties within such Loan Party Group and (unless otherwise expressly provided in any Loan Document) shall be secured by the Agent’s Lien upon all Collateral of each member of such Loan Party Group; provided, however, that each Credit Party shall be deemed to be a creditor of, and the holder of a separate claim against, each Loan Party to the extent of any Obligations owed by such Loan Party to such Credit Party.

4.6 Effect of Termination. On the effective date of any termination of any of the Commitments, all undertakings of the Loan Parties contained in the Loan Documents shall survive, and the Agent shall retain its Liens in the Collateral and all of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents until Full Payment of the Obligations. Notwithstanding Full Payment of the Obligations, the Agent shall not be required to terminate its Liens in any Collateral unless, with respect to any damages the Agent may incur as a result of the dishonor or return of Payment Items applied to Obligations, the Agent receives (a) a written agreement, executed by the Loan Party Agent and any Person whose advances are used in whole or in part to satisfy the Obligations, indemnifying the Agent and the Lenders from any such damages; or (b) such Cash Collateral as the Agent, in its reasonable discretion, deems necessary to protect against any such damages. Sections 2.2, 2.3, 3.4, 3.6, 3.7, 3.9, 5.5, 5.9, 5.10, 12, 14.2 and this Section 4.6, and the obligation of each Loan Party and Lender with respect to each indemnity given by it in any Loan Document, shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations and any release relating to this credit facility.

SECTION 5. PAYMENTS

5.1 General Payment Provisions. All payments of Obligations shall be made without offset, counterclaim or defense of any kind, free of (and without deduction for) any Taxes, and in immediately available funds, not later than 12:00 noon on the due date. Any payment after such time shall be deemed made on the next Business Day. If any payment under the Loan Documents shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, the due date shall be extended to the next Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in any computation of interest and fees. Any payment of an Interest Period Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period shall be accompanied by all amounts due under Section 3.9. Any prepayment of Loans to a Borrower shall be applied first to Floating Rate Loans to such Borrower and then to Interest Period Loans to such Borrower; provided, however, that as long as no Default or Event of Default exists, prepayments of Interest Period Loans may, at the option of the applicable Borrower and the Agent, be held by the Agent as Cash Collateral and applied to such Loans at the end of their Interest Periods. All payments with respect to any U.S. Facility Obligations shall be made in Dollars and all payments with respect to any Canadian Facility Obligations shall be made in Canadian Dollars or, if any portion of such Canadian Facility Obligations is denominated in Dollars, then in Dollars.

5.2 Repayment of Obligations. All Canadian Facility Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full on the Canadian Revolver Commitment Termination Date and all U.S. Facility Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full on the U.S.

Revolver Commitment Termination Date, in each case, unless payment of such Obligations is sooner required hereunder. Revolver Loans may be prepaid from time to time, without penalty or premium, subject to, in the case of Interest Period Loans, the payment of costs set forth in Section 3.9. If any Disposition includes the disposition of Accounts Collateral, then the Net Cash Proceeds equal to the greater of (a) the net book value of the applicable Accounts Collateral, or (b) the reduction in the Borrowing Base of the applicable Borrower upon giving effect to such Disposition, shall be applied to the Revolver Loans of such Borrower. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if an Overadvance exists (including as the result of any Disposition but subject to the proviso below), the Borrower owing such Overadvance shall, on the sooner of the Agent’s demand or the first Business Day after such Borrower has knowledge thereof, repay the outstanding Loans in an amount sufficient to reduce the principal balance of the related Overadvance Loan to zero.

5.3 [RESERVED]

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

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

5.6 Post-Default Allocation of Payments.

5.6.1 Allocation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during an Event of Default, monies to be applied to the Obligations, whether arising from payments by or on behalf of any Loan Party, realization on Collateral, setoff or otherwise, shall be allocated as follows:

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

(i) first, to all Obligations consisting of costs and expenses, including Extraordinary Expenses, owing to the Agent;

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

(iii) third, to all amounts owing to U.S. Issuing Bank on U.S. LC Obligations (other than amounts owing pursuant to clause (b) of such definition);

(iv) fourth, to all U.S. Facility Obligations constituting fees (excluding amounts relating to Bank Products and Secured Hedging Obligations) owing by the U.S. Facility

Loan Parties (exclusive of any such amounts owing by the Canadian Domiciled Loan Parties which are guaranteed by the U.S. Domiciled Loan Parties);

(v) fifth, to all U.S. Facility Obligations constituting interest (excluding amounts relating to Bank Products and Secured Hedging Obligations) owing by the U.S. Facility Loan Parties (exclusive of any such amounts owing by the Canadian Domiciled Loan Parties which are guaranteed by the U.S. Domiciled Loan Parties);

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

(vii) seventh, to all other U.S. Facility Obligations (exclusive of any such amounts owing by the Canadian Domiciled Loan Parties which are guaranteed by the U.S. Domiciled Loan Parties), other than (A) Bank Product Debt and (B) U.S. Secured Hedging Obligations to the extent the amount of U.S. Secured Hedging Obligations exceeds the U.S. Secured Hedging Reserves;

(viii) eighth, to Bank Product Debt of the U.S. Facility Loan Parties and U.S. Secured Hedging Obligations to the extent the amount of U.S. Secured Hedging Obligations exceeds the U.S. Secured Hedging Reserves (exclusive of any such amounts owing by the Canadian Domiciled Loan Parties which are guaranteed by the U.S. Domiciled Loan Parties);

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

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

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

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

(ii) second, to all amounts owing to the Agent (for the credit of Bank of America (Canada)) on Canadian Swingline Loans;

(iii) third, to all amounts owing to Canadian Issuing Bank on Canadian LC Obligations (other than amounts owing pursuant to clause (b) of such definition);

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

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

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

(vii) seventh, to all other Canadian Facility Obligations, other than (A) Bank Product Debt and (B) Canadian Secured Hedging Obligations to the extent the amount of Canadian Secured Hedging Obligations exceeds the Canadian Secured Hedging Reserves;

(viii) eighth, to Bank Product Debt of the Canadian Domiciled Loan Parties and Canadian Secured Hedging Obligations to the extent the amount of Canadian Secured Hedging Obligations exceeds the Canadian Secured Hedging Reserves; and

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

Amounts shall be applied to each category of Obligations set forth above until Full Payment thereof and then to the next category. If amounts are insufficient to satisfy a category, they shall be applied on a pro rata basis among the Obligations in the category. Amounts distributed with respect to any Bank Product Debt and Secured Hedging Obligations shall be the actual Bank Product Debt and Secured Hedging Obligations as calculated by the methodology reported to the Agent for determining the amount due. The Agent shall have no obligation to calculate the amount to be distributed with respect to any Bank Product Debt or Secured Hedging Obligations, but may rely upon written notice of the amount (setting forth a reasonably detailed calculation) from the Lender or Affiliate thereof providing the related Bank Product or party to the applicable Hedging Agreement. In the absence of such notice, the Agent may assume the amount to be distributed is the amount with respect to such Bank Product Debt or Secured Hedging Obligation last reported to it. The allocations set forth in this Section 5.6.1 are solely to determine the rights and priorities of the Agent and the Lenders as among themselves, and may be changed by agreement among them without the consent of any Loan Party. This Section is not for the benefit of or enforceable by any Borrower or any other Loan Party.

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

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

5.8 Loan Account; Account Stated.

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

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

5.9 Taxes.

5.9.1 Payments Free of Taxes. All payments by or on behalf of any Loan Party of Obligations shall be free and clear of and without reduction for any Taxes. If Applicable Law requires any Loan Party or the Agent to withhold or deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including backup withhold or withholding Taxes), then (i) the withholding or deduction shall be based on information provided pursuant to Section 5.10), (ii) the applicable Loan Party or the Agent shall make the appropriate withholding or deduction, (iii) the applicable Loan Party or the Agent shall pay the amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority, and (iv) the sum payable by the Borrowers shall be increased so that the Agent, the applicable Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received if no such withholding or deduction (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) had been made. Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrowers shall timely pay all Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authorities.

5.9.2 Payment. The Borrowers shall indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse (within ten (10) days after written demand therefor) the Agent, the Applicable Lenders and the Issuing Banks for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including those attributable to amounts payable under this Section) withheld or deducted by any Borrower or the Agent, or paid by the Agent, any Applicable Lender or any Issuing Bank, with respect to any Obligations of such Borrower, Letters of Credit or Loan Documents, whether or not such Taxes were properly asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority, and including all penalties, interest and reasonable expenses relating thereto. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount and basis for calculation of any such payment or liability delivered to the Loan Party Agent by the Agent, or by an Applicable Lender or Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Agent), shall be conclusive, absent manifest error and all amounts payable by the Borrowers under this Section 5.9.2 shall be due in accordance with Section 3.3. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by a Borrower, the Loan Party Agent shall deliver to the Agent a receipt from the Governmental Authority or other evidence of payment satisfactory to the Agent.

5.9.3 Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank shall become aware that it is entitled to claim a refund or credit from a Governmental Authority in respect of any Indemnified Tax or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower or with respect to which any Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.9, the Agent, such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, shall promptly notify such Borrower of the availability of such refund claim and, if the Agent, such Lender or Issuing Bank determines in good faith that making a claim for refund will not have a material adverse effect on its Taxes or business operations, shall, within 60 days after receipt of a request by such Borrower, make a claim to such Governmental Authority for such refund. If the Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Tax or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrowers or with respect to which the Borrowers have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.9, it shall pay to the Borrowers an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrowers under this Section 5.9 with respect to the Indemnified Tax or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent, such Lender, or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrowers agree in writing to repay the amount paid over to the Borrowers (plus interest attributable to the period during which the Borrowers held such funds) to the Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank in the event that the Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes) to any Borrower or any other Person.

5.10 Lender Tax Information.

5.10.1 Generally. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which any Loan Party is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Agent and the Loan Party Agent, at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Agent or the Loan Party Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by Applicable Law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Agent or the Loan Party Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Agent or the Loan Party Agent as will enable the Agent and the Loan Party Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

5.10.2 Certain Documents. Any Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Agent and the Loan Party Agent IRS Form W-9 or such other documentation or information prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Agent or the Loan Party Agent to determine whether such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. If any Foreign Lender is entitled to any exemption from or reduction of withholding tax for payments with respect to the U.S. Facility Obligations, it shall deliver to the Agent and the Loan Party Agent, on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon request by the Agent or the Loan Party Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), (a) IRS Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the

If a payment made to a Tax Indemnitee under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Tax Indemnittee fails to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA, such Tax Indemnitee shall deliver to the Agent and the Loan Party Agent (A) a certification signed by the chief financial officer, principal accounting officer, treasurer or controller and (B) other documentation reasonably requested by the Agent or the Loan Party Agent sufficient for the Agent or the Loan Party Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Tax Indemnitee has complied with such applicable reporting requirements.

5.10.3 Lender Obligations. Each Applicable Lender and applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Loan Party Agent and the Agent of any change in circumstances that would change any claimed Tax exemption or reduction. Each Applicable Lender and each Issuing Bank, in each case, severally and not jointly with any other Applicable Lender and/or Issuing Bank, shall indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse (within ten (10) days after demand therefor) the affected Borrower to which such Lender or Issuing Bank has issued a Commitment and the Agent for any Taxes, losses, claims, liabilities, penalties, interest and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by or asserted against such affected Borrower or Agent by any Governmental Authority due to such Applicable Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s failure to deliver, or inaccuracy or deficiency in, any documentation required to be delivered by it pursuant to this Section. Each Applicable Lender and Issuing Bank authorizes the Agent to set off any amounts due to the Agent under this Section against any amounts payable to such Applicable Lender or Issuing Bank under any Loan Document.

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

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

5.11.2 Each payment of interest shall be made in the currency in which the principal or other sum in respect of which such interest is denominated;

5.11.3 Each payment of fees by the U.S. Borrower pursuant to Section 3.2 shall be in Dollars;

5.11.4 Each payment of fees by the Canadian Borrower pursuant to Section 3.2 shall be in Dollars;

5.11.5 Each payment in respect of Extraordinary Expenses and any other costs, expenses and indemnities shall be made in the currency in which the same were incurred by the party to whom payment is to be made; and

5.11.6 Any amount expressed to be payable in Canadian Dollars shall be paid in Canadian Dollars.

No payment to any Credit Party (whether under any judgment or court order or otherwise) shall discharge the obligation or liability of the Loan Party in respect of which it was made unless and until such Credit Party shall have received Full Payment in the currency in which such obligation or liability is payable pursuant to the above provisions of this Section 5.12. To the extent that the amount of any such payment shall, on actual conversion into such currency, fall short of such obligation or liability actual or contingent expressed in that currency, such Loan Party (together with the other Loan Parties within its Loan Party Group or other obligors pursuant to any Guarantee of the Obligations of such Loan Party Group) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless such Credit Party, with respect to the amount of the shortfall with respect to amounts payable by such Loan Party hereunder, with such indemnity surviving the termination of this Agreement and any legal proceeding, judgment or court order pursuant to which the original payment was made which resulted in the shortfall. To the extent that the amount of any such payment to a Credit Party shall, upon an actual conversion into such currency, exceed such obligation or liability, actual or contingent, expressed in that currency, such Credit Party shall return such excess to the members of the affected Loan Party.

5.12 Currency Fluctuations. On each Business Day or such other date determined by the Agent (the “Calculation Date”), the Agent shall determine the Exchange Rate as of such date. The Exchange Rate so determined shall become effective on the first Business Day immediately following such determination (a “Reset Date”) and shall remain effective until the next succeeding Reset Date. On each Reset Date, the Agent shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of the Canadian Revolver Exposure. If, on any Reset Date, the Total Revolver Exposure exceeds the total amount of the Commitments on such date or the Canadian Revolver Exposure on such date exceeds the Canadian Borrowing Base on such date (the amount of any such excess referred to herein as the “Excess Amount”) then (i) the Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Lenders and (ii) within two (2) Business Days thereafter, the Borrowers shall cause such excess to be eliminated, either by repayment of Revolver Loans or depositing of Cash Collateral with the Agent with respect to LC Obligations and until such Excess Amount is repaid, the Lenders shall not have any obligation to make any Loans.

SECTION 8. COLLATERAL ADMINISTRATION

8.1 Borrowing Base Certificates. During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on October 31, 2011, by the last Business Day of each month (or on the first Business Day of each week during any Reporting Trigger Period), and at all times thereafter on the twentieth (20th) day of each month (or on the first Business Day of each week during any Reporting Trigger Period), the Loan Party Agent shall deliver to the Agent (and the Agent shall promptly deliver same to the Lenders) a Borrowing Base Certificate with respect to each Borrower, in each case, prepared as of the close of business of the previous month (or, if applicable, previous week), and, if a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at more frequent times as the Agent may request. All calculations of the applicable Borrowing Base in any Borrowing Base Certificate shall originally be made by the Loan Party Agent and certified by a Responsible Officer of the Loan Party Agent, provided that the Agent may from time to time review and adjust any such calculation to the extent the calculation is not made in accordance with this Agreement or does not accurately reflect the applicable Availability Reserve. Each Borrowing Base Certificate shall set forth the calculation of the U.S. Borrowing Base in Dollars and of the Canadian Borrowing Base in the Dollar Equivalent. In no event shall the Borrowing Base, Excess Availability, U.S. Availability or Canadian Availability on any date be deemed to exceed the amounts shown on the Borrowing Base Certificate last received by the Agent prior to such date, as the calculation in such Borrowing Base Certificate may be adjusted from time to time by the Agent as herein authorized.

8.2 Administration of Accounts.

8.2.1 Records and Schedules of Accounts. Each Loan Party shall keep accurate and complete records of its Accounts, including all payments and collections thereon, and shall submit to the Agent sales, collection, reconciliation and other reports in form reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, on such periodic basis as the Agent may request. The Loan Party Agent shall also provide to the Agent, on or before the 20th day of each month and, if a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at more frequent times as the Agent may request, a detailed aged trial balance of all Accounts of each Borrower as of the end of the preceding month (or shorter applicable period), specifying each Account’s Account Debtor name and address, amount, invoice date and due date, showing any discount, allowance, credit, authorized return or dispute, and including such proof of delivery, copies of invoices and invoice registers, copies of related documents, repayment histories, status reports and other information as the Agent may reasonably request. If Accounts of any Loan Party Group in an aggregate face amount of $5,000,000 or more cease to be Eligible Accounts (other than as a result of the payment thereof), the Loan Party Agent shall notify the Agent of such occurrence promptly (and in any event within one Business Day) after any Loan Party has knowledge thereof.

8.2.2 Taxes. If an Account of any Loan Party includes a charge for any Taxes, the Agent is authorized, in its discretion, during the continuance of an Event of Default or, upon prior notice to the Loan Party Agent, if the applicable Loan Party has not paid such Taxes when due, to pay the amount thereof to the proper Governmental Authority for the account of such Loan Party and to charge the Loan Parties therefor; provided, however, that neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall be liable for any Taxes that may be due from the Loan Parties or with respect to any Collateral.

8.2.3 Account Verification. Whether or not a Default or Event of Default exists, the Agent shall have the right at any time, in accordance with the Agent’s customary practice in administering asset based financings similar to the financing hereunder (it being understood that so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, the Agent may only exercise such rights in concert with the Borrowers’ personnel in joint field examinations and other joint actions), in the name of the Agent, any designee of the Agent or any Loan Party, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Accounts of the Loan Parties by mail, telephone or otherwise. The Loan Parties shall cooperate fully with the Agent in an effort to facilitate and promptly conclude any such verification process.

8.2.4 Maintenance of DACA Deposit Accounts and Dominion Accounts. The Canadian Domiciled Loan Parties shall establish and maintain a Canadian Dominion Account. The U.S. Facility Loan Parties shall establish and maintain the U.S. Dominion Account. The Loan Parties shall (i) require each lockbox servicer of each of any Loan Party’s lockboxes (if any) to deposit all Payment Items received therein directly to the Dominion Account at the related financial institution, and (ii) maintain each other Deposit Account, together with all other Deposit Accounts of the Loan Parties (other than Excluded Accounts), as DACA Deposit Accounts by obtaining an executed Deposit Account Control Agreement from each such lockbox servicer and each financial institution which maintains Deposit Accounts (other than any Excluded Accounts) for any Loan Party, which Deposit Account Control Agreement (a) establishes the Agent’s dominion and control (which may be exercised during a Cash Trigger Period) over the subject lockbox(es), if any, and/or Deposit Account(s) of the Loan Parties maintained with such servicer or institution, and (b) waives offset rights of such servicer or bank, except for customary administrative charges. Neither the Agent nor the Lenders assume any responsibility to the Loan Parties for any lockbox arrangement, DACA Deposit Account or Dominion Account, including any claim of accord and satisfaction or release with respect to any Payment Items accepted by any bank.

8.2.5 Proceeds of Accounts Collateral; Payment Items Received. Each Loan Party shall request in writing and otherwise take commercially reasonable steps to ensure that all payments on Accounts or otherwise relating to Accounts Collateral are made directly to a Dominion Account (or a lockbox relating to a Dominion Account). If any Loan Party or Subsidiary receives cash or Payment Items with respect to any Accounts Collateral or any such Payment Item not properly deposited by a lockbox servicer in accordance with the requirements set forth in Section 8.2.4, it shall hold same in trust for the Agent and promptly (not later than the next Business Day) deposit same into a Dominion Account.

8.3 [Reserved].

8.4 [Reserved]

8.5 Administration of Deposit Accounts. Schedule 8.5 sets forth all lockbox arrangements and Deposit Accounts (including Dominion Accounts) maintained by the Loan Parties as of the Closing Date. Each Loan Party shall take all actions necessary to establish the Agent’s control of each such Deposit Account (other than any Excluded Account) by causing the related deposit account bank to enter into a Deposit Account Control Agreement. The sole account holder of each Deposit Account shall be a single Loan Party and, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement to the extent (if any) that any such Deposit Account contains Non-Accounts Collateral, the Loan Parties shall not allow any other Person (other than the Agent) to

have control (as contemplated by the UCC and the PPSA) over a Deposit Account or any Property deposited therein. Each Loan Party shall promptly notify the Agent of any opening or closing of a Deposit Account and, concurrently with the opening thereof, shall ensure such account (other than accounts excluded from the operation of this paragraph above) is subject to a fully executed Deposit Account Control Agreement, an original copy of which has been delivered to the Agent.

8.6 General Provisions.

8.6.1 Location of Collateral. All tangible items of Collateral, other than Inventory in transit, shall at all times be kept by Loan Parties at the Loan Parties’ business locations set forth in Schedule 2 to the Perfection Certificates, except that Loan Parties may move any tangible item of Collateral to another location in the United States or Canada in the ordinary course of business.

8.6.2 Protection of Collateral. All reasonable expenses of protecting, storing, warehousing, insuring, handling, maintaining and shipping any Collateral of a Loan Party Group, all Taxes payable with respect to any Collateral of a Loan Party Group (including any sale thereof), and all other payments required to be made by the Agent to any Person to realize upon any Collateral of a Loan Party Group, shall be borne and paid by the Loan Parties of such Loan Party Group. The Agent shall not be liable or responsible in any way for the safekeeping of any Collateral, for any loss or damage thereto (except for reasonable care in its custody while Collateral is in the Agent’s actual possession), for any diminution in the value thereof, or for any act or default of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency or other Person whatsoever, but the same shall be at the Loan Parties’ sole risk.

8.6.3 Defense of Title to Collateral. Each Loan Party shall at all times (i) defend its title to Collateral consisting of Eligible Accounts and the Agent’s Liens therein and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to defend its title to all other Collateral and the Agent’s Liens therein, in each case, against all Persons, claims and demands whatsoever, except Permitted Liens.

8.7 Power of Attorney. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Agent (and all Persons designated by the Agent) as such Loan Party’s true and lawful attorney (and agent-in-fact), coupled with an interest, for the purposes provided in this Section. The Agent, or Agent’s designee, may, without notice and in either its or a Loan Party’s name, but at the cost and expense of the Loan Parties within such Loan Party’s Loan Party Group:

(a) Endorse a Loan Party’s name on any Payment Item or other proceeds of Collateral (including proceeds of insurance) that come into the Agent’s possession or control; and

(b) During an Event of Default, (i) notify any Account Debtors of the assignment of their Accounts, demand and enforce payment of Accounts by legal proceedings or otherwise, and generally exercise any rights and remedies with respect to Accounts; (ii) settle, adjust, modify, compromise, discharge or release any Accounts or other Collateral, or any legal proceedings brought to collect Accounts or Collateral; (iii) sell or assign any Accounts and other Collateral upon such terms, for such amounts and at such times as the Agent deems advisable; (iv) collect, liquidate and receive balances in Deposit Accounts or investment accounts, and take control, in

any manner, of proceeds of Collateral; (v) prepare, file and sign a Loan Party’s name to a proof of claim or other document in a bankruptcy of an Account Debtor, or to any notice, assignment or satisfaction of Lien or similar document; (vi) receive, open and dispose of mail addressed to a Loan Party, and notify postal authorities to deliver any such mail to an address designated by the Agent; (vii) endorse any Chattel Paper, Document, Instrument, xxxx of lading, or other document or agreement relating to any Accounts or other Collateral; (viii) use a Loan Party’s stationery and sign its name to verifications of Accounts and notices to Account Debtors; (ix) use information contained in any data processing, electronic or information systems relating to Collateral; (x) make and adjust claims under insurance policies; (xi) take any action as may be necessary or appropriate to obtain payment under any letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or other instrument for which a Loan Party is a beneficiary; and (xii) take all other actions as the Agent reasonably deems appropriate to fulfill any Loan Party’s obligations under the Loan Documents.

All such rights and remedies shall continue in full force and effect until Full Payment of all Obligations.

132

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

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent shall have the sole and exclusive authority to (a) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for the Lenders with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection with the Loan Documents; (b) subject to Section 14.1, execute and deliver as the Agent each Loan Document, including any intercreditor or subordination agreement, and accept delivery of each Loan Document from any Loan Party or other Person; (c) act as collateral agent for Secured Parties for purposes of perfecting and administering Liens under the Loan Documents, and for all other purposes stated therein; (d) manage, supervise or otherwise deal with Collateral; and (e) take any Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral under the Loan Documents, Applicable Law or

133

otherwise. The duties of the Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and the Agent shall not have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender, Secured Party, Participant or other Person, by reason of any Loan Document or any transaction relating thereto. The Agent alone shall be authorized to determine whether any Accounts constitute Eligible Accounts, or whether to impose or release any reserve, which determinations and judgments, if exercised in good faith and without gross negligence and willful misconduct, shall exonerate the Agent from liability to any Lender or other Person for any error in judgment.

(b)

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

(ii) Each Canadian Lender appoints and designates Bank of America (acting through its Canada branch) as Agent hereunder. Agent may, and each Canadian Lender authorizes Agent to, enter into all Loan Documents to which Agent is intended to be a party and accept all Security Documents, for Agent’s benefit and the Secured Parties. Each Canadian Lender agrees that any action taken by Agent, Required Lenders or Required Facility Lenders, as applicable, in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, and the exercise by Agent, Required Lenders or Required Facility Lenders, as applicable, of any rights or remedies set forth therein, together with all other powers reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all Canadian Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent shall have the sole and exclusive authority to (a) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for Canadian Lenders with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection with the Loan Documents; (b) execute and deliver as Agent each Loan Document, including any intercreditor or subordination agreement, and accept delivery of each Loan Document from any Loan Party or other Person; (c) act as collateral agent for Secured Parties for purposes of perfecting and administering all Liens granted to it under the Loan Documents, and for

134

all other purposes stated therein; (d) manage, supervise or otherwise deal with Collateral or Canadian Domiciled Loan Parties; and (e) exercise all rights and remedies given to Agent with respect to any Collateral of Canadian Domiciled Loan Parties under the Loan Documents, Applicable Law or otherwise. The duties of Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and Agent shall not have a fiduciary relationship with any other Agent, Lender, Secured Party, Participant or other Person, by reason of any Loan Document or any transaction relating thereto. For greater certainty, and without limiting the powers of Agent or any other Person acting as an agent, attorney-in-fact, mandatary or otherwise for the Secured Parties under this Agreement or other Loan Documents, each Canadian Lender hereby irrevocably constitutes (to the extent necessary) and confirms the constitution of (to the extent necessary) Agent as the holder of an irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir) within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec for the purposes of holding any Liens granted by a Loan Party and Agent hereby agrees to act in such capacity. In such capacity as fondé de pouvoir, Agent shall have the same rights, powers and immunities as the Agent as stipulated herein, which shall apply mutual mutandis, including, without limitation, to the resignation and appointment of a successor Agent hereunder.

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

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

12.1.4 Instructions of Required Lenders. The rights and remedies conferred upon the Agent under the Loan Documents may be exercised without the necessity of joinder of any other party, unless required by Applicable Law. The Agent may request instructions from Required Lenders or Required Facility Lenders with respect to any act (including the failure to act) in connection with any Loan Documents, and may seek assurances to its satisfaction from the Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 12.6 against all Claims that could be incurred by the Agent in connection with any act. The Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act until it has received such instructions or assurances, and the Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Instructions of Required Lenders or Required Facility Lenders shall be binding upon all Lenders, and no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Agent as a result of the Agent acting or refraining from acting in accordance with the instructions of Required Lenders or Required Facility Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, instructions by and consent of all Lenders shall be required in the circumstances described in Section 14.1.1, and in no event shall Required Lenders or Required Facility Lenders, without the prior written consent of each Lender, direct the Agent to accelerate and demand payment of Loans held by one Lender without accelerating and demanding payment of all other Loans, nor to terminate the Commitments of one Lender without terminating the Commitments of all Lenders. In no event shall the Agent be required to take any action that, in

135

its opinion, is contrary to Applicable Law or any Loan Documents or could subject any Agent Indemnitee to personal liability.

12.2 Agreements Regarding Collateral and Field Examination Reports.

12.2.1 Lien Releases; Care of Collateral.

(a) The Canadian Lenders authorize the Agent to release any Lien with respect to any Canadian Facility Collateral (a) upon Full Payment of the Canadian Facility Obligations; (b) that is the subject of a Disposition which Loan Party Agent certifies in writing to the Agent is a Permitted Asset Disposition or a Lien which the Loan Party Agent certifies is a Permitted Lien entitled to priority over the Agent’s Liens (and the Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate without further inquiry); or (c) with the written consent of all Canadian Lenders.

(b) The U.S. Lenders authorize the Agent to release any Lien with respect to any U.S. Facility Collateral (a) upon Full Payment of the U.S. Facility Obligations; (b) that is the subject of a Disposition which Loan Party Agent certifies in writing to the Agent is a Permitted Asset Disposition or a Lien which the Loan Party Agent certifies is a Permitted Lien entitled to priority over the Agent’s Liens (and the Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate without further inquiry); or (c) with the written consent of all U.S. Lenders.

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

12.2.2 Possession of Collateral.

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

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

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

12.2.3 Reports. The Agent shall promptly forward to each Applicable Lender, when complete, copies of any field audit, examination or appraisal report prepared by or for the Agent with respect to any Loan Party or Collateral (“Report”). Each Lender agrees (a) that neither Bank of America nor the Agent makes any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any Report, and shall not be liable for any information contained in or omitted from any Report; (b) that the Reports are not intended to be comprehensive audits or examinations, and that the Agent or any other Person performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding Obligations or Collateral and will rely significantly

136

upon the applicable Loan Parties’ books and records as well as upon representations of the applicable Loan Parties’ officers and employees; and (c) to keep all Reports confidential and strictly for such Lender’s internal use, and not to distribute any Report (or the contents thereof) to any Person (except to such Lender’s Participants, attorneys and accountants) or use any Report in any manner other than administration of the Loans and other Obligations. Each Lender agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent and any other Person preparing a Report from any action such Lender may take as a result of or any conclusion it may draw from any Report, as well as from any Claims arising as a direct or indirect result of the Agent furnishing a Report to such Lender.

12.3 Reliance By Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any certification, notice or other communication (including those by telephone, telex, telegram, telecopy or e-mail) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and upon the advice and statements of Agent Professionals.

12.4 Action Upon Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless it has received written notice from a Lender or the Loan Party Agent specifying the occurrence and nature thereof. If any Lender acquires knowledge of a Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly notify the Agent and the other Lenders thereof in writing. Each Lender agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any Loan Documents or with the written consent of the Agent and Required Lenders, it will not take any Enforcement Action, accelerate Obligations under any Loan Documents, or exercise any right that it might otherwise have under Applicable Law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC or PPSA sales or other similar dispositions of Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, a Lender may take action to preserve or enforce its rights against a Loan Party where a deadline or limitation period is applicable that would, absent such action, bar enforcement of Obligations held by such Lender, including the filing of proofs of claim in an Insolvency Proceeding.

12.5 Ratable Sharing. If any Lender shall obtain any payment or reduction of any Obligation, whether through set-off or otherwise, in excess of its share of such Obligation, determined on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.6.1, as applicable, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank and the other Applicable Lenders such participations in the affected Obligation as are necessary to cause the purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or reduction on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.6.1, as applicable. If any of such payment or reduction is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. No Lender shall set off against any DACA Deposit Account or Dominion Account without the prior consent of the Agent.

12.6 Indemnification of Agent Indemnitees. EACH LENDER SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE AGENT INDEMNITEES, TO THE EXTENT NOT REIMBURSED BY THE LOAN PARTIES (BUT WITHOUT LIMITING THE INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS OF THE LOAN PARTIES UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS), ON A PRO RATA BASIS, AGAINST ALL CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY AGENT INDEMNITEE, PROVIDED THE CLAIM RELATES TO OR ARISES FROM AN AGENT INDEMNITEE ACTING AS OR FOR THE AGENT (IN ITS CAPACITY AS THE AGENT) AND DOES NOT DIRECTLY ARISE (AS DETERMINED BY THE FINAL ORDER OF A COURT OF COMPETENT

137

JURISDICTION) FROM THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH AGENT INDEMNITEE. In the Agent’s discretion, it may reserve for any such Claims made against an Agent Indemnitee, and may satisfy any judgment, order or settlement relating thereto, from proceeds of Collateral prior to making any distribution of Collateral proceeds to Lenders. If the Agent is sued by any Creditor Representative, debtor-in-possession or other Person for any alleged preference or fraudulent transfer, then any monies paid by the Agent in settlement or satisfaction of such proceeding, together with all interest, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in the defense of same, shall be promptly reimbursed to the Agent by each Lender to the extent of its Pro Rata share.

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

12.8 Successor Agent and Co-Agents.

12.8.1 Resignation; Successor Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, the Agent may resign at any time by giving at least thirty (30) days written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Loan Party Agent. Upon receipt of such notice, Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent which shall be (a) a U.S. Lender or an Affiliate of a U.S. Lender; or (b) a commercial bank or other financial institution that is organized under the laws of the United States or any state or district thereof, has a combined capital surplus of at least $200,000,000 and (provided no Default or Event of Default exists) is reasonably acceptable to the Loan Party Agent. If no successor Agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Agent, then the Agent may appoint a successor Agent from among the Lenders. Until a successor Agent has been appointed, the resignation of the Agent shall not become effective. Upon acceptance by a successor Agent of an appointment to serve as the Agent hereunder, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the powers and duties of the retiring Agent without further act, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder but shall continue to have the benefits of the indemnification set forth in Sections 12.6 and 14.2. Notwithstanding any Agent’s resignation, the provisions of this Section 12 shall continue in effect for its benefit with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while the Agent. Any successor to Bank of America by merger or acquisition of stock or this loan shall

138

continue to be the Agent hereunder without further act on the part of the parties hereto, unless such successor resigns as provided above.

12.8.2 Separate Collateral Agent. It is the intent of the parties that there shall be no violation of any Applicable Law denying or restricting the right of financial institutions to transact business in any jurisdiction. If the Agent believes that it may be limited in the exercise of any rights or remedies under the Loan Documents due to any Applicable Law, the Agent may appoint an additional Person who is not so limited, as a separate collateral agent or co-collateral agent. If the Agent so appoints a collateral agent or co-collateral agent, each right and remedy intended to be available to the Agent under the Loan Documents shall also be vested in such separate agent. Every covenant and obligation necessary to the exercise thereof by such agent shall run to and be enforceable by it as well as the Agent. The Lenders shall execute and deliver such documents as the Agent deems appropriate to vest any rights or remedies in such agent. If any collateral agent or co-collateral agent shall die or dissolve, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, then all the rights and remedies of such agent, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Agent until appointment of a new agent.

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

12.10 Replacement of Certain Lenders. If a Lender (a) is a Defaulting Lender, or (b) fails to give its consent to any amendment, waiver or action for which consent of all Lenders was required and Required Lenders consented, then, in addition to any other rights and remedies that any Person may have, the Agent may, by notice to such Lender within 180 days after such event, require such Lender to assign all of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to Eligible Assignee(s) specified by the Agent, pursuant to appropriate Assignment and Acceptance(s) and within 20 days after Agent’s notice. The Agent is irrevocably appointed as attorney-in-fact to execute any such Assignment and Acceptance if such Lender fails to execute same. Such Lender shall be entitled to receive from such Eligible Assignee, in cash, concurrently with such assignment, all amounts owed to it under the Loan Documents, including all principal, interest and fees through the date of assignment (but excluding any prepayment charge).

139

12.11 Remittance of Payments and Collections.

12.11.1 Remittances Generally. All payments by any Lender to the Agent shall be made by the time and on the day set forth in this Agreement, in immediately available funds. If no time for payment is specified or if payment is due on demand by the Agent and request for payment is made by the Agent by 11:00 a.m. on a Business Day, payment shall be made by each Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. on such day, and if request is made after 11:00 a.m., then payment shall be made by 11:00 a.m. on the next Business Day. Payment by the Agent to any Lender shall be made by wire transfer, in the type of funds received by the Agent. Any such payment shall be subject to the Agent’s right of offset for any amounts due from such Lender under the Loan Documents.

12.11.2 Failure to Pay. If any Lender fails to pay any amount when due by it to the Agent pursuant to the terms hereof, such amount shall bear interest from the due date until paid at the rate determined by the Agent as customary in the banking industry for interbank compensation. In no event shall the Loan Parties be entitled to receive credit for any interest paid by a Lender to the Agent, nor shall any Defaulting Lender be entitled to interest on any amounts held by the Agent pursuant to Section 4.2.

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

12.12 Agent in its Individual Capacity. As a Lender, Bank of America shall have the same rights and remedies under the other Loan Documents as any other Lender, and the terms “Lenders,” “Required Lenders”, “Required Facility Lenders” or any similar term shall include Bank of America in its capacity as a Lender. Each of Bank of America and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, provide Bank Products and products under Hedging Agreements to, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial or other advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Loan Parties and their Affiliates, as if Bank of America were any other bank, without any duty to account therefor (including any fees or other consideration received in connection therewith) to the other Lenders. In their individual capacity, Bank of America and its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Loan Parties, their Affiliates and their Account Debtors (including information subject to confidentiality obligations), and each Lender agrees that Bank of America and its Affiliates shall be under no obligation to provide such information to Lenders, if acquired in such individual capacity and not as the Agent hereunder.

12.13 Agent Titles. Each Lender, other than Bank of America, that is designated (on the cover page of this Agreement or otherwise) by Bank of America as an “Agent” or “Arranger” of any type shall not have any right, power, responsibility or duty under any Loan Documents

140

other than those applicable to all Lenders, and shall in no event be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any other Lender.

12.14 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Section 12 is an agreement solely among Lenders and the Agent, and shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations. This Section 12 does not confer any rights or benefits upon Loan Parties or any other Person. As between the Loan Parties and the Agent, any action that the Agent may take under any Loan Documents or with respect to any Obligations shall be conclusively presumed to have been authorized and directed by the Lenders.

SECTION 13. BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS

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

13.2 Participations.

13.2.1 Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with Applicable Law, at any time sell to a financial institution (“Participant”) a participating interest in the rights and obligations of such Lender under any Loan Documents. Despite any sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the holder of its Loans and Facility Commitments for all purposes, all amounts payable by the Loan Parties within the applicable Loan Party Group shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and the Loan Parties within the applicable Loan Party Group and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the Loan Documents. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters under the Loan Documents, and the Agent and the other Lenders shall not have any obligation or liability to any such Participant. A Participant of U.S. Facility Obligations or Canadian Facility Obligations that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.9 unless the Loan Party Agent agrees otherwise in writing.

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

141

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

13.3 Assignments.

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

13.3.2 Register. The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of and principal amounts of the Loans and LC Obligations 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 Borrowers, the Agent, the Issuing Banks 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 Borrowers, the Issuing Banks, and any Lender (with respect to its own interest only), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Agent shall have no liability to the Borrowers or any other Person for the inaccuracy of any entries in the Register.

13.3.3 Effect; Effective Date. Upon delivery to the Agent of an assignment notice in the form of Exhibit E and a processing fee of $3,500 (unless otherwise agreed by the Agent in its discretion), the assignment shall become effective as specified in the notice, if it complies with this Section 13.3. From such effective date, the Eligible Assignee shall for all purposes be a Lender under the Loan Documents, and shall have all rights and obligations of a

142

Lender thereunder. Upon consummation of an assignment, the transferor Lender, the Agent and the Loan Parties shall make appropriate arrangements for issuance of replacement and/or new Notes, as applicable. The transferee Lender shall comply with Section 5.10 and deliver, upon request, an administrative questionnaire satisfactory to the Agent.

SECTION 14. MISCELLANEOUS

14.1 Consents, Amendments and Waivers.

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

(e) without the prior written consent of all Lenders having Commitments to a Borrower, no amendment or waiver shall be effective that would (x) with respect to Lenders having Facility Commitments to the Canadian Borrower, (i) amend the definition of Canadian Borrowing Base (and the defined terms used in such definition) to the extent that such amendment would result in an increase in Canadian Availability, (ii) increase the advance rates applicable to the Canadian Borrower, (iii) release a material portion of the Canadian Facility Collateral, or (iv) release any Canadian Facility Loan Party from liability for any Canadian Facility Obligations; or (y) with respect to Lenders having Facility Commitments to the U.S.

14.1.2 Limitations. The agreement of the Loan Parties shall not be necessary to the effectiveness of any modification of a Loan Document that deals solely with the rights and duties of the Lenders, the Agent and/or the Issuing Banks as among themselves. Only the consent of the parties to the Fee Letter, any Lien Waiver, Deposit Account Control Agreement or any agreement relating to a Bank Product or Hedging Agreement shall be required for any modification of such agreement, and any non-Lender that is party to a Bank Product agreement or Hedging Agreement shall have no right to participate in any manner in modification of any other Loan Document. The making of any Loans during the existence of a Default or Event of Default shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of such Default or Event of Default, or to establish a course of dealing. Any waiver or consent granted by the Agent or the Lenders hereunder shall be effective only if in writing, and then only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it is given. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Agent, acting in its sole discretion, and the Loan Parties may (without the consent of any Lender) amend or supplement this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or to make a modification of a minor, consistency or technical nature or to correct a manifest error.

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

14.2 Indemnity. IN ADDITION TO THE INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN SECTION 5.9.2, EACH LOAN PARTY SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE INDEMNITEES AGAINST ANY CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE, INCLUDING CLAIMS ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF AN INDEMNITEE. In no event shall any Loan Party have any obligation thereunder to indemnify or hold harmless an Indemnitee with respect to a Claim that is determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. No Indemnitee shall have any liability for any special, indirect, or punitive damages, and any obligations of the Indemnitees hereunder shall be several, and not joint.

14.3 Notices and Communications.

14.3.1 Notice Address. Subject to Section 4.1.4, all notices and other communications by or to a party hereto shall be in writing and shall be given to any Loan Party, at the Loan Party Agent’s address shown on the signature pages hereof, and to any other Person at its address shown on the signature pages hereof (or, in the case of a Person who becomes a Lender after the Closing Date, at the address shown on its Assignment and Acceptance), or at such other address as such Person may hereafter specify by notice in accordance with this Section 14.3. Each such notice or other communication shall be effective only (a) if given by

144

facsimile transmission, when transmitted to the applicable facsimile number, if confirmation of receipt is received; (b) if given by mail, three (3) Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mail (or, in the case of a Canadian Domiciled Loan Party, the Canadian mail system), with first-class postage pre-paid, addressed to the applicable address; (c) if given by personal delivery, when duly delivered to the notice address with receipt acknowledged of (d) if given by electronic mail or any other telecommunications device, when transmitted to an electronic mail address (or by another means of electronic delivery). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice to the Agent pursuant to Section 2.1.4, 2.3, 3.1.1, 3.1.2, or 4.1.1 shall be effective until actually received by the individual to whose attention at the Agent such notice is required to be sent. Any written notice or other communication that is not sent in conformity with the foregoing provisions shall nevertheless be effective on the date actually received by the noticed party. Any notice received by the Loan Party Agent shall be deemed received by all Loan Parties.

14.3.2 Electronic Communications; Voice Mail. Electronic mail and internet websites may be used only for routine communications, such as financial statements, Borrowing Base Certificates and other information required by Section 10.1.1, administrative matters, distribution of Loan Documents for execution, and matters permitted under Section 4.1.4. The Agent and the Lenders make no assurances as to the privacy and security of electronic communications. Electronic communication and voice mail may not be used as effective notice under the Loan Documents.

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

14.4 Performance of Loan Parties’ Obligations. The Agent may, in its discretion at any time and from time to time, at the expense of the Loan Parties of the applicable Loan Party Group, pay any amount due and unpaid (after giving effect to applicable grace periods) or do any act required and not yet performed (after giving effect to applicable grace periods) of a Loan Party under any Loan Documents or otherwise lawfully requested by the Agent to (a) enforce any Loan Documents or collect any Obligations; (b) protect, insure, maintain or realize upon any Collateral; or (c) defend or maintain the validity or priority of the Agent’s Liens in any Collateral, including any payment of a judgment, insurance premium, warehouse charge, finishing or processing charge, or landlord claim, or any discharge of a Lien. All payments, costs and expenses (including Extraordinary Expenses) of the Agent under this Section 14.4 shall be reimbursed to the Agent by the Loan Parties, on demand, with interest from the date incurred to the date of payment thereof at the Default Rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. Any payment made or action taken by the Agent under this Section 14.4 shall be without prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default or to exercise any other rights or remedies under the Loan Documents.

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

145

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

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

14.8 Counterparts. Any Loan Document may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement shall become effective when the Agent has received counterparts bearing the signatures of all parties hereto. Delivery of a signature page of any Loan Document by telecopy or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of such agreement.

14.9 Entire Agreement. Time is of the essence of the Loan Documents. The Loan Documents 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.

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

14.11 Lender Loss Sharing Agreement.

(a) Definitions. As used in this Section 14.11, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

(i) CAM: the mechanism for the allocation and exchange of interests in the Loans, participations in Letters of Credit and collections thereunder established under Section 14.11(b).

(ii) CAM Exchange: the exchange of the U.S. Lenders’ interests and the Canadian Lenders’ interests provided for in Section 14.11(b).

(iii) CAM Exchange Date: the first date after the Closing Date on which there shall occur (a) any event described in Section 11.1(f) with respect to any Borrower, or (b) an acceleration of Loans and termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 11.2.

146

(iv) CAM Percentage: as to each Lender, a fraction, (a) the numerator of which shall be the aggregate amount of such Lender’s Commitments immediately prior to the CAM Exchange Date and the termination of the Commitments, and (b) the denominator of which shall be the amount of the Commitments of all the Lenders immediately prior to the CAM Exchange Date and the termination of the Commitments.

(v) Designated Obligations: all Obligations of the Borrowers with respect to (a) principal and interest under the U.S. Revolver Loans, Canadian Revolver Loans, Overadvance Loans and Protective Advances, (b) unreimbursed drawings under Letters of Credit and interest thereon, and (c) fees under Sections 3.2.1 and 3.2.2(a).

(vi) Revolver Facilities: the facility established under the U.S. Revolver Commitments and the Canadian Revolver Commitments, and Revolver Facility means any one of such Revolver Facilities.

(b) CAM Exchange.

(i) On the CAM Exchange Date,

(A) the U.S. Revolver Commitments and the Canadian Revolver Commitments shall have terminated in accordance with Section 11.2 of this Agreement,

(B) each U.S. Lender shall fund its participation in any outstanding Protective Advances in accordance with Section 2.1.6 of this Agreement, and each Canadian Lender shall fund its participation in any outstanding Protective Advances in accordance with Section 2.1.6 of this Agreement,

(C) each U.S. Lender shall fund its participation in any unreimbursed drawings made under the applicable Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.3.2(b),

(D) each Canadian Lender shall funds its participation in any unreimbursed drawings made under the applicable Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.3.3(b), and

(E) the Lenders shall purchase, in Dollars at par, interests in the Dollar Equivalents of the Designated Obligations under each Revolver Facility (and shall make payments to the Agent for reallocation to other Lenders to the extent necessary to give effect to such purchases) and shall assume the obligations to reimburse the Issuing Banks for unreimbursed drawings under outstanding Letters of Credit under such Revolver Facility such that, in lieu of the interests of each Lender in the Designated Obligations under the U.S. Revolver Commitments and the Canadian Revolver Commitments in which it shall participate immediately prior to the CAM Exchange Date, such Lender shall own an interest equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage in each component of the

147

Designated Obligations immediately following the CAM Exchange.

(ii) Each Lender and each Person acquiring a participation from any Lender as contemplated by Section 13.2 hereby consents and agrees to the CAM Exchange. Each Borrower agrees from time to time to execute and deliver to the Lenders all such promissory notes and other instruments and documents as the Agent shall reasonably request to evidence and confirm the respective interests and obligations of the Lenders after giving effect to the CAM Exchange, and each Lender agrees to surrender any promissory notes originally received by it in connection with its Loans under this Agreement to the Agent against delivery of any promissory notes so executed and delivered; provided that the failure of any Lender to deliver or accept any such promissory note, instrument or document shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the CAM Exchange.

(iii) As a result of the CAM Exchange, from and after the CAM Exchange Date, each payment received by the Agent pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of any of the Designated Obligations shall be distributed to the Lenders, pro rata in accordance with their respective CAM Percentages.

(iv) In the event that on or after the CAM Exchange Date, the aggregate amount of the Designated Obligations shall change as a result of the making of a disbursement under a Letter of Credit by an Issuing Bank that is not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower, then each Lender shall promptly reimburse such Issuing Bank for its CAM Percentage of such unreimbursed payment.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 14.11, the Agent and each Lender agree that if the Agent or a Lender is required under Applicable Law to withhold or deduct any taxes or other amounts from payments made by it hereunder or as a result hereof, such Person shall be entitled to withhold or deduct such amounts and pay over such taxes or other amounts to the applicable Governmental Authority imposing such tax without any obligation to indemnify the Agent or any Lender with respect to such amounts and without any other obligation of gross up or offset with respect thereto and there shall be no recourse whatsoever by the Agent or any Lender subject to such withholding to the Agent or any other Lender making such withholding and paying over such amounts, but without diminution of the rights of the Agent or such Lender subject to such withholding as against the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties to the extent (if any) provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any amounts so withheld or deducted shall be treated as, for the purpose of this Section 14.11, having been paid to the Agent or such Lender with respect to which such withholding or deduction was made.

14.12 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated by any Loan Document, the Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (a)(i) this credit facility and any related arranging or other services by the Agent, any Lender, any of their Affiliates or any arranger are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Loan Parties and such Person; (ii) the Loan Parties have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they have deemed appropriate; and (iii) the Loan Parties are capable of evaluating and understanding, and do understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; (b) each of the Agent, the Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger is and has been acting solely as a

148

principal in connection with this credit facility, is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Loan Parties, any of their Affiliates or any other Person, and has no obligation with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents except as expressly set forth therein; and (c) the Agent, the Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates, and have no obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Loan Parties or their Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Loan Party hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Agent, the Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated by a Loan Document.

14.13 Confidentiality. Each of the Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks agrees to maintain the confidentiality of all Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates, and to its and their partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (provided such Persons are informed of the confidential nature of the Information and instructed to keep it confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it or its Affiliates; (c) to the extent required by Applicable Law or by any subpoena or other legal process; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with any action or proceeding, or other exercise of rights or remedies, relating to any Loan Documents or Obligations; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as this Section 14.13, to any Transferee or any actual or prospective party (or its advisors) to any Bank Product or Hedging Agreement; (g) with the consent of the Loan Party Agent; or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 14.13 or (ii) is available to the Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any of their Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Loan Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agent and the Lenders may publish or disseminate general information describing this credit facility, including the names and addresses of the Loan Parties and a general description of the Loan Parties’ businesses, and may use the Loan Parties’ logos, trademarks or product photographs in advertising materials. As used herein, “Information” means all information received from a Loan Party or a Subsidiary of a Loan Party relating to it or its business that is identified as confidential when delivered. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information pursuant to this Section 14.13 shall be deemed to have complied if it exercises the same degree of care that it accords its own confidential information. Each of the Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks acknowledges that (i) Information may include material non-public information concerning a Loan Party or Subsidiary; (ii) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information; and (iii) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with Applicable Law, including federal, state, provincial and territorial securities laws.

14.14 Certifications Regarding Senior High Yield Indenture. The Borrowers certify to the Agent and the Lenders that neither the execution or performance of the Loan Documents nor the incurrence of any Obligations by the Loan Parties violates the Senior High Yield Indenture, including, without limitation, Section 4.4 thereof. The Borrowers further certify that the Commitments and Obligations constitute permitted indebtedness under clause 2(b) of the definition of “Permitted Indebtedness” set forth in the Senior High Yield Indenture. The Agent may condition Borrowings, Letters of Credit and other credit accommodations under the Loan Documents from time to time upon the Agent’s receipt of evidence that the Commitments and

149

Obligations continue to constitute permitted indebtedness under clause 2(b) of the definition of “Permitted Indebtedness” set forth in the Senior High Yield Indenture at such time.

14.15 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES (BUT GIVING EFFECT TO SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATION LAW AND FEDERAL LAWS RELATING TO NATIONAL BANKS).

14.16 Consent to Forum.

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

14.17 Waivers by Loan Parties and Patriot Act Notice.

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

150

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

14.18 Canadian Anti-Money Laundering Legislation.

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

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

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

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

14.19 Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against any Loan Party for liquidation or reorganization, should any Loan Party become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of such Loan Party’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to Applicable Law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference”, “fraudulent conveyance”, or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

151

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

14.21 Amendment and Restatement. Effective immediately upon the Closing Date, the terms and conditions of the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended and restated as set forth herein and the Existing Credit Agreement shall be superseded by this Agreement. On the Closing Date, the rights and obligations of the parties evidenced by the Existing Credit Agreement shall be evidenced by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the grant of security interests and Liens in the Collateral by the Borrowers and the Guarantors under the Existing Credit Agreement and the other “Loan Documents” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) shall continue under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall not in any event be terminated, extinguished or annulled but shall hereafter continue to be in full force and effect and be governed by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. All Obligations (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) under the Existing Credit Agreement and the other “Loan Documents” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) shall continue to be outstanding except as expressly modified by this Agreement and shall be governed in all respects by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, it being agreed and understood that this Agreement does not constitute a novation, satisfaction, payment or reborrowing of any Obligation (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) under the Existing Credit Agreement or any other “Loan Document” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement), nor does it operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Agent or any Lender under any “Loan Document” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement). All references to the Existing Credit Agreement in any Loan Document or other document or instrument delivered in connection therewith shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement and the provisions hereof.
