For purposes of the calculation required by the immediately preceding sentence, LIBOR Loans (other than LIBOR Competitive Loans) having different Interest Periods or having been made in different Currencies, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Loans and all Loans of a single Interest Rate Type made on a single date shall be considered a single Loan if such Loans have a common Interest Period.

(c) Subject to Section 2.7, each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by making funds available at the Funding Office no later than 1:00 P.M. Local Time in the case of Loans other than ABR Loans, FFR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Canadian ABR Loans and 4:00 P.M. Local Time in the case of ABR Loans, FFR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans and Canadian ABR Loans, in each case, in immediately available funds. Upon receipt of the funds to be made available by the Lenders to fund any Borrowing hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall disburse such funds by depositing them into an account of the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent. Competitive Loans shall be made by the Lender or Lenders whose Competitive Bids therefor are accepted pursuant to Section 2.4 in the amounts so accepted and Loans shall be made by all the Lenders pro rata in accordance with Section 2.1 and this Section 2.2. Canadian Revolving Loans shall be made by the Canadian Revolving Lender in accordance with Section 2.1 and this Section 2.2 and, in the case of Canadian B/As, with the provisions of Section 2.26.

(d) All ABR Loans and Canadian ABR Loans shall be denominated in Dollars. All Canadian B/As and Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall be denominated in Canadian Dollars.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, neither the Borrower, nor any Subsidiary Borrower shall be entitled to request any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Termination Date.

SECTION 2.3. Use of Proceeds.

The proceeds of the Loans shall be used for working capital and general corporate purposes and to backstop commercial paper issuances.

SECTION 2.4. Competitive Bid Procedure.

(a) In order to request Competitive Bids, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Competitive Bid Request substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1, to be received by the Administrative Agent (i) in the case of a LIBOR Competitive Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, four Working Days before a proposed Competitive Borrowing and (ii) in the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day before a proposed Competitive Borrowing. Each Competitive Bid Request shall specify the requested Currency. No ABR Loan shall be requested in, or made pursuant to, a Competitive Bid Request. A Competitive Bid Request that does not conform substantially to the format of Exhibit D-1 may be rejected in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower of such rejection by telecopier. Such request for Competitive Bids shall in each case refer to this Agreement and specify (i) whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a LIBOR Borrowing or a Fixed Rate Borrowing, (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day in the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing and a Working Day in the case of a LIBOR Competitive Borrowing) and the aggregate principal Dollar Equivalent Amount thereof, which shall be in a minimum principal Dollar Equivalent Amount of $10,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $5,000,000, and (iii) the Interest Period with respect thereto (which may not end after the Termination Date). Promptly after its receipt of a Competitive Bid Request that is not rejected as aforesaid, the Administrative Agent shall invite by telecopier (in the form set forth in Exhibit D-2) the Lenders to bid, on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, to make Competitive Loans pursuant to such Competitive Bid Request.

(b) Each Lender may, in its sole discretion, make one or more Competitive Bids to the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower responsive to a Competitive Bid Request. Each Competitive Bid by a Lender must be received by the Administrative Agent via telecopier, substantially in the form of Exhibit D-3, (i) in the case of a LIBOR Competitive Borrowing, not later than 9:30 a.m., New York City time, three Working Days before a proposed Competitive Borrowing and (ii) in the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing, not later than 9:30 a.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Competitive Borrowing. Multiple Competitive Bids will be accepted by the Administrative Agent. Competitive Bids that do not conform substantially to the format of Exhibit D-3 may be rejected by the Administrative Agent after conferring with, and upon the instruction of, the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower, and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lender making such nonconforming Competitive Bid of such rejection as soon as practicable. Each Competitive Bid shall refer to this Agreement and specify (i) the principal Dollar Equivalent Amount (which shall be in a minimum principal Dollar Equivalent Amount of $10,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and which may equal the entire principal amount of the Competitive Borrowing requested by the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower) of the Competitive Loan or Loans that the applicable Lender is willing to make to the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower, (ii) the Competitive Bid Rate or Rates at which such Lender is prepared to make such Competitive Loan or Loans and (iii) the Interest Period or Interest Periods with respect thereto. If any Lender shall elect not to make a Competitive Bid, such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent via telecopier (i) in the case of LIBOR Competitive Loans, not later than 9:30 a.m., New York City time, three Working Days before a proposed Competitive Borrowing and (ii) in the case of Fixed Rate Loans, not later than 9:30 a.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Competitive Borrowing; provided that failure by any Lender to give such notice shall not cause such Lender to be obligated to make any Competitive Loan as part of such proposed Competitive Borrowing. A Competitive Bid submitted by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph (b) shall be irrevocable.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower by telecopier of all the Competitive Bids made, the Competitive Bid Rate or Rates and the principal amount of each Competitive Loan in respect of which a Competitive Bid was made and the identity of the Lender that made each Competitive Bid. The Administrative Agent shall send a copy

of all Competitive Bids to the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower for its records as soon as practicable after completion of the bidding process set forth in this Section 2.4.

(d) The Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower may in its sole and absolute discretion, subject only to the provisions of this paragraph (d), accept or reject any Competitive Bid referred to in paragraph (c) above. The Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone, promptly confirmed by telecopier in the form of a Competitive Bid Accept/Reject Letter whether and to what extent it has decided to accept or reject any or all of the Competitive Bids referred to in paragraph (c) above, (i) in the case of a LIBOR Competitive Borrowing, not later than 10:30 a.m., New York City time, three Working Days before a proposed Competitive Borrowing and (ii) in the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing, not later than 10:30 a.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Competitive Borrowing; provided that (A) the failure by the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower to give such notice shall be deemed to be a rejection of all the Competitive Bids referred to in paragraph (c) above, (B) neither the Borrower, nor any Subsidiary Borrower shall accept a Competitive Bid made at a particular Competitive Bid Rate if the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower has decided to reject a Competitive Bid made at a lower Competitive Bid Rate, (C) the aggregate amount of the Competitive Bids accepted by the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall not exceed the principal amount specified in the Competitive Bid Request, (D) if the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower shall accept a Competitive Bid or Competitive Bids made at a particular Competitive Bid Rate but the amount of such Competitive Bid or Competitive Bids shall cause the total amount of Competitive Bids to be accepted by the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower to exceed the amount specified in the Competitive Bid Request, then the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall accept a portion of such Competitive Bid or Competitive Bids in an amount equal to the amount specified in the Competitive Bid Request less the amount of all other Competitive Bids accepted at lower Competitive Bid Rates with respect to such Competitive Bid Request (it being understood that acceptance in the case of multiple Competitive Bids at such Competitive Bid Rate, shall be made pro rata in accordance with the amount of each such Competitive Bid at such Competitive Bid Rate), (E) except pursuant to clause (D) above, no Competitive Bid shall be accepted for a Competitive Loan unless such Competitive Loan is in a minimum principal Dollar Equivalent Amount of $10,000,000 and an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and (F) neither the Borrower, nor any Subsidiary Borrower may accept Competitive Bids for Competitive Loans in any currency other than the currency specified in the related Competitive Bid Request; and provided, further, that if a Competitive Loan must be in an amount less than the Dollar Equivalent Amount of $10,000,000 because of the provisions of clause (D) above, such Competitive Loan shall be in a minimum principal Dollar Equivalent Amount of $1,000,000 or any integral multiple thereof, and in calculating the pro rata allocation of acceptances of portions of multiple Competitive Bids at a particular Competitive Bid Rate pursuant to clause (D), the amounts shall be rounded to the Dollar Equivalent Amount of integral multiples of $1,000,000 in a manner that shall be in the discretion of the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower. A notice given by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (d) shall be irrevocable.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each bidding Lender whether its Competitive Bid has been accepted (and if so, in what amount and at what Competitive Bid Rate) by telecopy sent by the Administrative Agent, and each successful bidder will thereupon become bound, subject to the other applicable conditions hereof, to make the Competitive Loan in respect of which its Competitive Bid has been accepted in the applicable Currency.

(f) If the Administrative Agent shall elect to submit a Competitive Bid in its capacity as a Lender, it shall submit such Competitive Bid directly to the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower one quarter of an hour earlier than the latest time at which the other Lenders are required to submit their Competitive Bids to the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (b) above.

(g) All notices required by this Section 2.4 shall be given in accordance with Section 10.1.

SECTION 2.5. Revolving Credit Borrowing Procedure.

In order to effect a Revolving Credit Borrowing, the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing notice substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 (a) in the case of a Borrowing of LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, (i) four Working Days before a proposed Borrowing denominated in any Available Foreign Currency and (ii) three Working Days before a proposed Borrowing denominated in Dollars, and (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing or an FFR Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Borrowing. No Fixed Rate Loan or LIBOR Competitive Loan shall be requested or made pursuant to a Revolving Credit Borrowing Request. Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall in each case specify (A) whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a Borrowing of LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans, an ABR Borrowing or an FFR Borrowing, (B) the date of such Revolving Credit Borrowing (which shall be a Working Day) and the amount thereof and (C) if such Borrowing is to be a Borrowing of LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans, the Interest Period and Currency with respect thereto. If no election as to the Interest Rate Type of a Revolving Credit Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the requested Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period with respect to any Borrowing of LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans is specified in any such notice, then the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. If no Currency with respect to any Borrowing of LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans is specified in any such notice, then the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower shall be deemed to have selected Dollars. If the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall not have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.5 of its election to refinance a Revolving Credit Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing, then the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower shall (unless such Borrowing is repaid at the end of such Interest Period) be deemed to have given notice of an election to refinance such Borrowing with an ABR Borrowing. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the Revolving Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.5 and of each such Lender’s portion of the requested Revolving Credit Borrowing.

SECTION 2.6. Canadian Revolving Borrowing Procedure.

In order to request a Canadian Revolving Loan, the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy to the Canadian Revolving Lender a Borrowing notice substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 (a) in the case of a LIBOR Loan, not later than 2:00 p.m., Toronto time, three Working Days before a proposed Loan, (b) in the case of a Canadian B/A, not later than 2:00 p.m., Toronto time, two Working Days before a proposed Loan, and (c) in the case of a Canadian Prime Rate Loan or Canadian ABR Loan, not later than 2:00 p.m., Toronto time, on the day of a proposed Loan. No Fixed Rate Loan or LIBOR Competitive Loan shall be requested or made pursuant to a Canadian Revolving Borrowing Request. Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall in each case specify (A) whether the Loan then being requested is to be a Canadian B/A, a Canadian Prime Rate Loan, a Canadian ABR Loan or a LIBOR Loan, (B) the date of such Loan (which shall be a Working Day) and the amount thereof, (C) the Currency with respect thereto, (D) if such Loan is to be a Canadian B/A, the Contract Period with respect thereto and (E) if such Loan is to be a LIBOR Loan, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no election as to the Interest Rate Type is specified in any such notice for Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, then the requested Loan shall be a Canadian Prime Rate Loan. If no election as to the Interest Rate Type is specified in any such notice for Loans denominated in Dollars, then the requested Loan shall be a Canadian ABR Loan. If no Contract Period with respect to any Canadian B/A is specified in any such notice, then the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower shall be deemed to have selected a Contract Period of

one month’s duration. If no Interest Period with respect to any LIBOR Loan is specified in any such notice, then the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. If no Currency with respect to any Canadian Revolving Loan is specified in any such notice, then the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower shall be deemed to have selected Canadian Dollars. If the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower shall not have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.6 of its election to refinance a Canadian Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Contract Period or Interest Period, as the case may be, in effect for such Loan, then the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower shall (unless such Loan is repaid at the end of such Contract Period or Interest Period) be deemed to have given notice of an election to refinance such Borrowing with a Canadian Prime Rate Loan, in the case of a Canadian Dollar-denominated Loan, or Canadian ABR Loan, in the case of a Dollar-denominated Loan. The Canadian Revolving Lender shall promptly advise the Administrative Agent of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.6.

SECTION 2.7. Refinancings.

The Borrower and any Subsidiary Borrower may refinance all or any part of any Borrowing made by it with a Borrowing of the same or a different Interest Rate Type made pursuant to Section 2.4 or pursuant to a notice under Section 2.5 or 2.6, subject to the conditions and limitations set forth herein and elsewhere in this Agreement, including refinancings of Competitive Borrowings with Revolving Credit Borrowings in Dollars and Revolving Credit Borrowings in Dollars with Competitive Borrowings; provided that at any time after the occurrence, and during the continuation, of a Default or an Event of Default, (a) a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Dollars or portion thereof may only be refinanced with an ABR Borrowing, (b) a Revolving Credit Borrowing of any Available Foreign Currency shall be repaid in full at the end of the Interest Period in effect for such Borrower, (c) a Canadian B/A may only be refinanced with a Canadian Prime Rate Loan and (d) a LIBOR Canadian Revolving Loan may only be refinanced with a Canadian ABR Loan. Any Borrowing or part thereof so refinanced shall be deemed to be repaid in accordance with Section 2.9 with the proceeds of a new Borrowing or Canadian Revolving Loan, as the case may be, hereunder and the proceeds of the new Borrowing or Canadian Revolving Loan, as the case may be, to the extent they do not exceed the principal amount of the Borrowing or Loan being refinanced, shall not be paid by the applicable Lenders to the Administrative Agent or by the Administrative Agent or the Canadian Revolving Lender, as the case may be, to the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to Section 2.2(c); provided that (A) if the principal amount extended by a Lender in a refinancing of a Revolving Credit Borrowing is greater than the principal amount extended by such Lender in the Revolving Credit Borrowing being refinanced, then such Lender shall pay such difference to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders described in clause (B) below, (B) if the principal amount extended by a Lender in the Revolving Credit Borrowing being refinanced is greater than the principal amount being extended by such Lender in the refinancing, the Administrative Agent shall return the difference to such Lender out of amounts received pursuant to clause (A) above, and (C) to the extent any Lender fails to pay the Administrative Agent amounts due from it pursuant to clause (A) above, any Loan or portion thereof being refinanced with such amounts shall not be deemed repaid in accordance with Section 2.9 and, to the extent of such failure, the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent as required by Section 2.11; and (D) to the extent the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower fails to pay to the Administrative Agent any amounts due in accordance with Section 2.9 as a result of the failure of a Lender to pay the Administrative Agent any amounts due as described in clause (C) above, the portion of any refinanced Loan deemed not repaid shall be deemed to be outstanding solely to the Lender which has failed to pay the Administrative Agent amounts due from it pursuant to clause (A) above to the full extent of such Lender’s portion of such Loan.

SECTION 2.8. Fees.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to each Lender, through the Administrative Agent, on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, and on the date on which the Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated as provided herein, a facility fee (a “Facility Fee”) at the rate per annum from time to time in effect in accordance with Section 2.23, on the amount of the Commitment of such Lender, whether used or unused, during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the Closing Date, or ending with the Termination Date or any date on which the Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated). All Facility Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. The Facility Fee due to each Lender shall commence to accrue on the Closing Date, shall be payable in arrears and shall cease to accrue on the earlier of the Termination Date and the termination of the Commitment of such Lender as provided herein; provided, that if any Lender continues to have any outstanding Loans after its Commitment terminates, then such Facility Fee shall continue to accrue on the daily aggregate principal amount of such Lender’s Loans for each day from and including the date on which its Commitment terminates to but excluding the date on which such Lender ceases to have any outstanding Loans.

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay to each Lender, through the Administrative Agent, on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, and on the date on which the Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated as provided herein, a utilization fee (a “Utilization Fee”) at a rate per annum equal to the Utilization Fee Percentage for each Excess Utilization Day, which fee shall accrue on the daily amount of the Commitment of such Lender (whether used or unused) for each Excess Utilization Day during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the date on which such Commitment terminates; provided that, if such Lender continues to have any outstanding Loans after its Commitment terminates, then such Utilization Fee shall continue to accrue on the daily aggregate principal amount of such Lender’s Loans for each Excess Utilization Day from and including the date on which its Commitment terminates to but excluding the date on which such Lender ceases to have any outstanding Loans. All Utilization Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days and shall be payable in arrears.

(c) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent the fees in the amounts and on the dates as set forth in any fee agreements with the Administrative Agent and to perform any other obligations contained therein.

(d) All fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders. Once paid, none of the fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.9. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Borrower and each Subsidiary Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Revolving Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan made to it on the Termination Date. The Borrower and each Subsidiary Borrower hereby further agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Revolving Lender, interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans made to it from time to time outstanding from the date hereof until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Section 2.10.

(b) The Borrower and each Subsidiary Borrower unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender that makes a Competitive Loan to it, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Competitive Loan, the principal amount of such Competitive Loan. The Borrower and each Subsidiary Borrower further unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender that makes a Competitive Loan to it, interest on

each such Competitive Loan made to it for the period from and including the date of Borrowing of such Competitive Loan on the unpaid principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding at the applicable rate per annum determined as provided in, and payable as specified in, Section 2.10.

(c) The Canadian Subsidiary Borrower unconditionally promises to pay to the Canadian Revolving Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Canadian Revolving Loan made to it on the Termination Date. The Canadian Subsidiary Borrower hereby further agrees to pay to the Canadian Revolving Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Canadian Revolving Loans made to it from time to time outstanding from the date hereof until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Section 2.10.

(d) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 10.3(e), and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Interest Rate Type thereof and each Interest Period, if any, applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower or Subsidiary Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.

(f) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to Section 2.9(d) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower or Subsidiary Borrower therein recorded; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.10. Interest on Loans.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.11, the Loans comprising each LIBOR Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of each LIBOR Canadian Revolving Loan or LIBOR Revolving Credit Loan, LIBOR for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the applicable LIBOR Spread from time to time in effect and (ii) in the case of each LIBOR Competitive Loan, LIBOR for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus or minus the Margin offered by the Lender making such Loan and accepted by the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to Section 2.4.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.11, the Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be when determined by reference to the Prime Rate and over a year of 360 days at all other times) at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate.

(c) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.11, the Loans comprising each FFR Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be) equal to the Federal Funds Rate plus the applicable FFR Spread from time to time in effect.

(d) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.11, each Canadian Prime Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be) equal to the Canadian Prime Rate.

(e) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.11, each Canadian ABR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be) equal to the Canadian Alternate Base Rate.

(f) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.11, each Canadian B/A shall be subject to an Acceptance Fee (computed on a per annum basis the basis on the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.26.

(g) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.11, each Fixed Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) equal to the fixed rate of interest offered by the Lender making such Loan and accepted by the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to Section 2.4.

(h) Interest on each Loan (other than Canadian B/As) shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable to such Loan. The LIBOR, Federal Funds Rate, Alternate Base Rate, Canadian Prime Rate or Canadian Alternate Base Rate for each Interest Period or day within an Interest Period shall be determined by the Administrative Agent and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Acceptance Fee and Discount Rate applicable to Canadian B/As shall be determined by the Canadian Revolving Lender and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(i) For the purposes of disclosure under the Interest Act (Canada) and for this Agreement, whenever interest to be paid hereunder is to be calculated on the basis of 360 days or any other period of time that is less than a calendar year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate determined pursuant to such calculation is equivalent is the rate so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 360 or such other number of days in such period, as the case may be.

SECTION 2.11. Interest on Overdue Amounts.

If the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower shall default in the payment of the principal of, or interest on, any Loan or any other amount becoming due hereunder, the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower shall on demand from time to time pay interest, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, on such defaulted amount up to (but not including) the date of actual payment (after as well as before judgment) at a rate per annum computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, in the case of amounts bearing interest determined by reference to the Prime Rate or the Canadian Prime Rate and a year of 360 days in all other cases, equal to (a) in the case of the remainder of the then current Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan, Fixed Rate Loan, the rate applicable to such Loan under Section 2.10 plus 2% per annum and (b) in the case of any ABR Loan, FFR Loan, Canadian B/A, Canadian Prime Rate Loan or Canadian ABR Loan, the rate applicable to such Loan under Section 2.10 plus 2% per annum.

SECTION 2.12. Alternate Rate of Interest.

In the event the Administrative Agent shall have determined that deposits in Dollars or the applicable Available Foreign Currency in the amount of the requested principal amount of any LIBOR Loan are not generally available in the London Interbank Market (or such other interbank eurocurrency

market where the foreign currency and exchange operations in respect of Dollars or such applicable Available Foreign Currency, as the case may be, are then being conducted for delivery on the first day of such Interest Period), or, in the case of LIBOR Loans, that the rate at which such deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining its portion of such LIBOR Loans during such Interest Period, or that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR, the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written or telecopier notice of such determination to the Borrower and the Lenders. In the event of any such determination, until the Administrative Agent shall have determined that circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (a) any request by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower for a LIBOR Competitive Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.4 shall be of no force and effect and shall be denied by the Administrative Agent and (b) any request by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower for a LIBOR Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.5 shall be deemed to be a request for an ABR Loan. Each determination by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.13. Termination and Reduction of Commitments; Increase of Revolving Commitments; Reallocation of Commitments.

(a) The Commitments of all of the Lenders shall be automatically terminated on the Termination Date.

(b) Subject to Sections 2.14(b) and (c), upon at least three Business Days’ prior irrevocable written or telecopy notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify each Lender), the Borrower may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Total Revolving Commitment or the Canadian Revolving Commitment, or both; provided that (i) each partial reduction shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and in a minimum principal amount of $10,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not be entitled to make any such termination or reduction that would reduce (A) the Total Revolving Commitment to an amount less than the sum of the aggregate outstanding principal Dollar Equivalent Amount of the Loans (other than Canadian Revolving Loans) plus the then current Revolving L/C Exposure or (B) the Canadian Revolving Commitment to an amount less than the sum of the aggregate outstanding principal Dollar Equivalent Amount of the Canadian Revolving Loans plus the then current Canadian L/C Exposure.

(c) Each reduction in the Total Revolving Commitment hereunder shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders on the date of each termination or reduction in the Total Revolving Commitment, the Facility Fees and the Utilization Fees on the amount of the Revolving Commitments so terminated or reduced accrued to the date of such termination or reduction.

(d) In the event that the Borrower wishes to increase the Total Revolving Commitment at any time when no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, it shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of the amount (the “Offered Increase Amount”) of such proposed increase (such notice, a “Revolving Commitment Increase Notice”), and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of such proposed increase and provide such additional information regarding such proposed increase as any Revolving Lender may reasonably request. The Borrower may, at its election and with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Issuing Lenders (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld), (i) offer one or more of the Revolving Lenders the opportunity to participate in all or a portion of the Offered Increase Amount pursuant to paragraph (f) below and/or (ii) offer one or more additional banks, financial institutions or other entities the opportunity to participate in all or a portion of the Offered Increase Amount pursuant to paragraph (e) below. Each Revolving Commitment Increase Notice shall specify which Revolving Lenders and/or banks, financial institutions or other entities the Borrower desires to participate in such Revolving Commitment increase.

The Borrower or, if requested by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, will notify such Lenders and/or banks, financial institutions or other entities of such offer.

(e) Any additional bank, financial institution or other entity which the Borrower selects to offer participation in the increased Revolving Commitments and which elects to become a party to this Agreement and provide a Revolving Commitment in an amount so offered and accepted by it pursuant to Section 2.13(d)(ii) shall execute a New Lender Supplement with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit F, whereupon such bank, financial institution or other entity (herein called a “New Lender”) shall become a Revolving Lender for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement, and Schedule 1.1A shall be deemed to be amended to add the name and Revolving Commitment of such New Lender, provided that the Revolving Commitment of any such new Lender shall be in an amount not less than $5,000,000.

(f) Any Lender which accepts an offer to it by the Borrower to increase its Revolving Commitment pursuant to Section 2.13(d)(i) shall, in each case, execute a Revolving Commitment Increase Supplement with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit G, whereupon such Lender shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement with respect to the full amount of its Revolving Commitment as so increased, and Schedule 1.1A shall be deemed to be amended to so increase the Revolving Commitment of such Lender.

(g) The Borrower and the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower may, from time to time, but not more than once per calendar quarter, from and after the Closing Date until the earlier of the Termination Date and the termination of the Canadian Revolving Commitment, upon giving an irrevocable joint written notice (each, a “Reallocation Notice”) to the Canadian Revolving Lender and the Administrative Agent at least ten Working Days prior to the beginning of the next following calendar quarter, temporarily reduce, in whole or in part, or increase, the Canadian Revolving Commitment. Any reductions or increases in the Canadian Revolving Commitment shall take effect on the first day of the next following calendar quarter. Each reduction or increase in the Canadian Revolving Commitment shall result in an automatic corresponding increase or reduction in the Canadian Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment; provided that the amount of the Canadian Revolving Commitment shall not, at any time, (i) be reduced to an amount that is less than the sum of (A) the outstanding aggregate principal Dollar Equivalent Amount of all Canadian Revolving Loans plus (B) the then current Canadian L/C Exposure or (ii) exceed $80,000,000.

(h) The ability of the Borrower and the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower to reallocate the Revolving Commitments and the Canadian Revolving Commitment in accordance with this Section 2.13 shall be subject to (i) the prior written consent of the Canadian Revolving Lender to each such reallocation, (ii) the representations and warranties set forth in (A) Article 3 (other than those set forth in Section 3.5), in the case of the Borrower and (B) Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 as to the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower, in the case of the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower, being true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such reallocation with the same effect as though made on and as of such date and (iii) at the time of and immediately following such reduction or increase, no Event of Default or Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Each Reallocation Notice shall specify the amount (expressed in Dollars) of any reduction or increase in the Canadian Revolving Commitment and the corresponding increase or reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments. Each reallocation requested under this Section 2.13 shall be in a minimum aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 (or, if less, (x) the remaining amount of the Canadian Revolving Commitment then in effect or (y) an amount which would result in the Canadian Revolving Commitment exceeding $80,000,000).

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.13, (i) in no event shall any transaction effected pursuant to this Section 2.13 cause the Total Revolving Commitment to exceed $1,500,000,000 and (ii) no Lender shall have any obligation to increase its Revolving Commitment unless it agrees to do so in its sole discretion.

SECTION 2.14. Prepayment of Loans.

(a) Prior to the Termination Date, the Borrower or any applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall have the right at any time, and from time to time, to prepay any Revolving Credit Borrowing or Canadian Revolving Loan, in whole or in part (other than in the case of a Canadian B/A), subject to the requirements of Section 2.18 but otherwise without premium or penalty, upon prior written or telecopy notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender) (or to the Canadian Revolving Lender, in the case of any prepayment of Canadian Revolving Loans) before 2:00 p.m. Local Time of at least one Business Day in the case of an ABR Loan, FFR Loan, Canadian Prime Rate Loan or Canadian ABR Loan, and of at least three Working Days in the case of a LIBOR Loan; provided that each such partial prepayment shall be in a minimum aggregate principal Dollar Equivalent Amount of (i) $1,000,000 or a whole multiple in excess thereof, in the case of Revolving Credit Loans and (ii) $500,000 or a whole multiple in excess thereof, in the case of Canadian Revolving Loans. Neither the Borrower, nor any Subsidiary Borrower shall have the right to prepay any Competitive Borrowing without the consent of the relevant Lender. Any prepayment of a Canadian B/A shall be for the full face amount thereof, which prepayment shall be made in full satisfaction of the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower’s reimbursement obligation in respect of such Canadian B/A.

(b) On any date when the sum of the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the aggregate outstanding Loans (other than Canadian Revolving Loans) (after giving effect to any Borrowings effected on such date) plus the then current Revolving L/C Exposure exceeds the Total Revolving Commitment, the Borrower and/or any applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall make a mandatory prepayment of the Loans in such amount as may be necessary so that the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the aggregate amount of outstanding Loans (other than Canadian Revolving Loans) plus the then current Revolving L/C Exposure after giving effect to such prepayment does not exceed the Total Revolving Commitment then in effect. Any prepayments required by this paragraph shall be applied first to outstanding ABR Loans and second to FFR Loans, in each case, up to the full amount thereof before they are applied to outstanding LIBOR Loans.

(c) On any date when the sum of the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the aggregate outstanding Canadian Revolving Loans (after giving effect to any Loans effected on such date) plus the then current Canadian L/C Exposure exceeds the Canadian Revolving Commitment, the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower shall make a mandatory prepayment of the Loans in such amount as may be necessary so that the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the aggregate amount of outstanding Canadian Revolving Loans plus the then current Canadian L/C Exposure after giving effect to such prepayment does not exceed the Canadian Revolving Commitment then in effect. Any prepayments required by this paragraph shall be applied first to outstanding Canadian Prime Rate Loans and second to outstanding Canadian ABR Loans, up to the full amount thereof before they are applied to outstanding Canadian B/As and LIBOR Loans; provided that, in lieu of applying prepaid amounts to outstanding Canadian B/As, the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower may deposit cash or Cash Equivalents in a Canadian Cash Collateral Account in an amount equal to the amount by which the principal Dollar Equivalent Amount of any outstanding Canadian B/As exceeds the Canadian Revolving Commitment then in effect after giving effect to such other prepayments.

(d) On any date the Borrower shall cease to own, directly or through wholly-owned Subsidiaries, all of the capital stock of any Subsidiary Borrower, free and clear of any direct or indirect

Liens, such Subsidiary Borrower shall (i) make a mandatory prepayment of all outstanding Loans made to it and (ii) deposit cash in a Cash Collateral Account in an amount equal at all times to the full amount of the Revolving L/C Exposure from Revolving Letters of Credit issued for its account or Canadian L/C Exposure from Canadian Letters of Credit issued for its account.

(e) Each notice of prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall specify the specific Borrowing(s), the prepayment date and the aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower to prepay such Borrowing(s) by the amount stated therein. All prepayments under this Section 2.14 shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the principal amount being prepaid to the date of prepayment and any amounts due pursuant to Section 2.18.

SECTION 2.15. Eurocurrency Reserve Costs.

The Borrower and any applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (or to the Canadian Revolving Lender, in the case of LIBOR Canadian Revolving Loans), so long as such Lender shall be required under regulations of the Board to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of, or including, Eurocurrency Liabilities (as defined in Regulation D of the Board) (or, at any time when such Lender may be required by the Board or by any other Governmental Authority, whether within the United States or in another relevant jurisdiction, to maintain reserves against any other category of liabilities which includes deposits by reference to which LIBOR is determined as provided in this Agreement or against any category of extensions of credit or other assets of such Lender which includes any such LIBOR Loans), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Loan made to the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower by such Lender, from the date of such Loan until such Loan is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all times during the Interest Period for such Loan to the remainder obtained by subtracting (i) LIBOR for such Interest Period from (ii) the rate obtained by multiplying LIBOR as referred to in clause (i) above by the Statutory Reserves of such Lender for such Interest Period. Such additional interest shall be determined by such Lender and notified to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) not later than five Business Days before the next Interest Payment Date for such Loan, and such additional interest so notified to the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower by any Lender shall be payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender (or to the Canadian Revolving Lender, in the case of LIBOR Canadian Revolving Loans) on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan.

SECTION 2.16. Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if after the date of this Agreement any change in Applicable Law or regulation or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (whether or not having the force of law) (i) shall subject any Lender to, or increase the net amount of, any tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding with respect to any Loan, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender of the principal of or interest on any Loan made by such Lender or any other fees or amounts payable hereunder (other than (x) taxes imposed on the overall net income of such Lender by the jurisdiction in which such Lender has its principal office or its applicable Lending Office or by any political subdivision or taxing authority therein (or any tax which is enacted or adopted by such jurisdiction, political subdivision or taxing authority as a direct substitute for any such taxes) or (y) any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the failure of any Lender to comply with any certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement), (ii) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender, or (iii) shall impose on any

Lender or eurocurrency market any other condition affecting this Agreement or any Loan made by such Lender, and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) in respect thereof by an amount deemed in good faith by such Lender to be material, then the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall pay such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increase or reduction to such Lender upon demand by such Lender.

(b) If, after the date of this Agreement, any Lender shall have determined in good faith that the adoption after the date hereof of or any change after the date hereof in any applicable law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or any Lending Office of such Lender) with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of its Obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender (or its holding company) could have achieved but for such applicability, adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies or the policies of its holding company, as the case may be, with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then, from time to time, the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender (or its holding company) such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction upon demand by such Lender.

(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth in reasonable detail (i) such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate such Lender as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) above, as the case may be, and (ii) the calculation of such amount or amounts referred to in the preceding clause (i), shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall pay the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after its receipt of the same.

(d) Failure on the part of any Lender to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital with respect to any Interest Period shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s rights to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital with respect to such Interest Period or any other Interest Period. The protection of this Section 2.16 shall be available to each Lender regardless of any possible contention of invalidity or inapplicability of the law, regulation or condition which shall have been imposed.

(e) Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that (i) would cause it to incur any increased cost under this Section 2.16, Section 2.17, Section 2.22 or Section 2.24(g) or (ii) would require the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower to pay an increased amount under this Section 2.16, Section 2.17, Section 2.22 or Section 2.24(g), it will use reasonable efforts to notify the Borrower of such event or condition and, to the extent not inconsistent with such Lender’s internal policies, will use its reasonable efforts to make, fund or maintain the affected Loans of such Lender, or, if applicable to participate in Letters of Credit, through another Lending Office of such Lender if as a result thereof the additional monies which would otherwise be required to be paid or the reduction of amounts receivable by such Lender thereunder in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit would be materially reduced, or any inability to perform would cease to exist, or the increased costs which would otherwise be required to be paid in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit pursuant to this Section 2.16, Section 2.17, Section 2.22 or Section

2.24(g) would be materially reduced or the taxes or other amounts otherwise payable under this Section 2.16, Section 2.17 or Section 2.22 would be materially reduced, and if, as determined by such Lender, in its sole reasonable discretion, the making, funding or maintaining of such Loans or Letters of Credit through such other Lending Office would not otherwise materially adversely affect such Loans or Letters of Credit.

(f) In the event any Lender shall have delivered to the Borrower a notice that LIBOR Loans are no longer available from such Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, that amounts are due to such Lender pursuant to paragraph (c) above, that any of the events designated in paragraph (e) above have occurred or that such Lender shall not be rated at least BBB by S&P and Baa2 by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇, the Borrower may (but subject in any such case to the payments required by Section 2.18), provided that there shall exist no Default or Event of Default, upon at least five Business Days’ prior written or telecopier notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, but not more than 30 days after receipt of notice from such Lender, identify to the Administrative Agent a lending institution reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent which will purchase the Revolving Commitment, the amount of outstanding Loans and any participations in Letters of Credit from the Lender providing such notice and such Lender shall thereupon assign its Revolving Commitment, any Loans owing to such Lender and any participations in Letters of Credit held by such Lender to such replacement lending institution pursuant to Section 10.3. Such notice shall specify an effective date for such assignment and at the time thereof, the Borrower and/or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall pay all accrued interest, Facility Fees, Utilization Fees and all other amounts (including without limitation all amounts payable under this Section and Sections 2.22, 2.24(g), 10.4 and 10.5) owing hereunder to such Lender as at such effective date for such assignment.

SECTION 2.17. Change in Legality.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, if any change in any law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the administration or interpretation thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any LIBOR Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby, then, by written notice to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent, such Lender may:

(i) declare that LIBOR Loans will not thereafter be made by such Lender hereunder, whereupon such Lender shall not submit a Competitive Bid in response to a request for LIBOR Competitive Loans and the Borrower shall otherwise be prohibited from requesting LIBOR Loans from such Lender hereunder unless such declaration is subsequently withdrawn; and

(ii) require that all outstanding LIBOR Loans (in Dollars) made by it be converted to ABR Loans (or to Canadian ABR Loans, in the case of the Canadian Revolving Lender) in which event (A) all such LIBOR Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans or Canadian ABR Loans, as the case may be, as of the effective date of such notice as provided in Section 2.17(b) and (B) all payments and prepayments of principal which would otherwise have been applied to repay the converted LIBOR Loans shall instead be applied to repay the ABR Loan resulting from the conversion of such LIBOR Loans.

(b) For purposes of this Section 2.17, a notice to the Borrower by any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17(a) shall be effective on the date of receipt thereof by the Borrower.

SECTION 2.18. Reimbursement of Lenders.

(a) The Borrower shall reimburse each Lender on demand for any loss incurred or to be incurred by it in the reemployment of the funds released (i) by any prepayment (for any reason, including any refinancing) of any LIBOR or Fixed Rate Loan if such Loan is repaid other than on the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Loan or (ii) in the event that after the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower delivers a notice of borrowing under Section 2.5 in respect of LIBOR Revolving Credit Loans or a Competitive Bid Accept/Reject Letter under Section 2.4(d), pursuant to which it has accepted Competitive Bids of one or more of the Lenders, the applicable Loan is not made on the first day of the Interest Period specified by the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower for any reason other than (I) a suspension or limitation under Section 2.17 of the right of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower to select a LIBOR Loan or (II) a breach by such Lender of its obligations hereunder. In the case of such failure to borrow, such loss shall be the amount as reasonably determined by such Lender as the excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest which would have accrued to such Lender on the amount not borrowed, at a rate of interest equal to the interest rate applicable to such Loan pursuant to Section 2.10, for the period from the date of such failure to borrow to the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan which would have commenced on the date of such failure to borrow, over (B) the amount realized by such Lender in reemploying the funds not advanced during the period referred to above. In the case of a payment other than on the last day of the Interest Period for a Loan, such loss shall be the amount of the excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so paid at a rate of interest equal to the interest rate applicable to such Loan pursuant to Section 2.10, for the period from the date of such payment to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan, over (B) an amount equal to the product of (x) the amount of the Loan so paid times (y) the current daily yield on U.S. Treasury Securities (at such date of determination) with maturities approximately equal to the remaining Interest Period for such Loan times (z) the number of days remaining in the Interest Period for such Loan. Each Lender shall deliver to the Borrower from time to time one or more certificates setting forth the amount of such loss (and in reasonable detail the manner of computation thereof) as determined by such Lender, which certificates shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the amount shown as due on any certificate within thirty (30) days after its receipt of the same.

(b) In the event the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower fails to prepay any Loan on the date specified in any prepayment notice delivered pursuant to Section 2.14(a), the Borrower on demand by any Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any loss incurred by such Lender as a result of such failure to prepay, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expenses incurred by reason of the acquisition of deposits or other funds by such Lender to fulfill deposit obligations incurred in anticipation of such prepayment. Each Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent from time to time one or more certificates setting forth the amount of such loss (and in reasonable detail the manner of computation thereof) as determined by such Lender, which certificates shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.19. Pro Rata Treatment.

Except as permitted under Sections 2.15, 2.16(c), 2.16(f), 2.17, 2.18 and 4.1(g), each Borrowing under the Revolving Commitments and each reduction of the Total Revolving Commitment shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments (or, if such Revolving Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amount of their Revolving Credit Loans) and each payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing and each payment of interest on the Revolving Credit Loans shall be allocated pro rata in accordance with the respective principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans then held by the Lenders. Each payment of principal of any Competitive Borrowing shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders participating in such Borrowing in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Competitive Loans comprising such Borrowing. Each payment of interest on any

Competitive Borrowing shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders participating in such Borrowing in accordance with the respective amounts of accrued and unpaid interest on their outstanding Competitive Loans comprising such Borrowing. For purposes of determining the available Revolving Commitments of the Lenders at any time, each outstanding Competitive Borrowing shall be deemed to have utilized the Revolving Commitments of the Lenders (including those Lenders that shall not have made Loans as part of such Competitive Borrowing) pro rata in accordance with such respective Revolving Commitments. Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing under the Revolving Commitments to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of such Borrowing computed in accordance with Section 2.1, to the next higher or lower whole Dollar amount.

SECTION 2.20. Right of Setoff.

If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and any Lender shall have requested the Administrative Agent to declare the Loans immediately due and payable pursuant to Article 7, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by such Lender and any other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to, or for the credit or the account of, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower (limited, in the case of any Subsidiary Borrower, to the extent of the Obligations owed by such Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement), against any of and all the Obligations now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the Loans and participations in Letters of Credit held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Loans and although such Obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section 2.20 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have and are subject to the provisions of Section 8.2.

SECTION 2.21. Manner of Payments.

All payments by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower hereunder shall be made in immediately available funds, without setoffs, deductions or counterclaims, at the Funding Office no later than 4:30 p.m., Local Time, on the date on which such payment shall be due. Interest in respect of any Loan hereunder shall accrue from and including the date of such Loan to, but excluding, the date on which such Loan is paid or refinanced with a Loan of a different Interest Rate Type. All interest and principal payments in respect of any Loan shall be made in the Currency in which such Loan is denominated. All other payments shall be made in Dollars.

SECTION 2.22. Withholding Taxes.

(a) Prior to the date of the initial Loans hereunder, and from time to time thereafter if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or required because, as a result of a change in Applicable Law or a change in circumstances or otherwise, a previously delivered form or statement becomes incomplete or incorrect in any material respect, each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States (other than the Canadian Revolving Lender) shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, provide, if applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower with complete, accurate and duly executed forms or other statements prescribed by a Governmental Authority certifying such Lender’s exemption, if any, from, or entitlement to a reduced rate, if any, of, withholding taxes (including backup withholding taxes) with respect to all payments to be made to such Lender hereunder.

(b) The Borrower, any applicable Subsidiary Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold any and all present or future taxes or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, from payments hereunder, if and to the extent that the Borrower, any applicable Subsidiary Borrower or the Administrative Agent in good faith determines that such deduction or withholding is required by Applicable Law, including, without limitation, any applicable treaty. In the event the Borrower, any applicable Subsidiary Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall so determine that deduction or withholding of taxes is required, it shall advise the affected Lender as to the basis of such determination prior to actually deducting and withholding such taxes. In the event the Borrower, any applicable Subsidiary Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall so deduct or withhold taxes from amounts payable hereunder, it (i) shall pay to or deposit with the appropriate taxing authority in a timely manner the full amount of taxes it has deducted or withheld; (ii) shall provide evidence of payment of such taxes to, or the deposit thereof with, the appropriate taxing authority and a statement setting forth the amount of taxes deducted or withheld, the applicable rate, and any other information or documentation reasonably requested by the Lenders from whom the taxes were deducted or withheld; and (iii) shall forward to such Lenders any receipt for such payment or deposit of the deducted or withheld taxes as may be issued from time to time by the appropriate taxing authority. Unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent have received forms or other documents satisfactory to them indicating that payments hereunder are not subject to (A) United States withholding tax or are subject to such tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, in the case of extensions of credit made under the Revolving Commitments or (B) Canadian withholding tax, in the case of extensions of credit made under the Canadian Revolving Commitment, the Borrower, any applicable Subsidiary Borrower or the Administrative Agent may withhold taxes from such payments at the applicable statutory rate in the case of payments to or for any Lender.

(c) Each Lender agrees (i) that as between it and the Borrower, any Subsidiary Borrower or the Administrative Agent, it shall be the Person to deduct and withhold taxes, and to the extent required by law it shall deduct and withhold taxes, on amounts that such Lender may remit to any other Person(s) by reason of any undisclosed transfer or assignment of an interest in this Agreement to such other Person(s) pursuant to paragraph (g) of Section 10.3 and (ii) to indemnify the Borrower, any applicable Subsidiary Borrower and the Administrative Agent and any of their officers, directors, agents, or employees against, and to hold them harmless from, any tax, interest, additions to tax, penalties, reasonable counsel and accountants’ fees, disbursements or payments arising from the assertion by any appropriate taxing authority of any claim against them relating to a failure to withhold taxes as required by Applicable Law with respect to amounts described in clause (i) of this paragraph (c).

(d) Each assignee of a Lender’s interest in this Agreement in conformity with Section 10.3 shall be bound by this Section 2.22, so that such assignee will have all of the obligations and provide all of the forms and statements and all indemnities, representations and warranties required to be given under this Section 2.22.

(e) In the event that any (a) withholding taxes imposed by any jurisdiction outside the United States shall become payable for any reason (other than an assignment of any portion of the Canadian Revolving Commitment or Canadian Revolving Loans by the Canadian Lenders to any Person who is not an Eligible Canadian Revolving Lender) or (b) United States withholding taxes shall become payable as a result of any change in any statute, treaty, ruling, determination or regulation occurring after the Initial Date (as defined below), in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Fundamental Document to any Lender or the Administrative Agent (i) the sum payable by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.22) such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower, any Subsidiary Borrower, the Lender

or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower, any applicable Subsidiary Borrower, the Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with Applicable Law. For purposes of this Section 2.22, the term “Initial Date” shall mean (i) in the case of the Administrative Agent, the date hereof, (ii) in the case of each Lender as of the date hereof, the date hereof and (iii) in the case of any other Lender, the effective date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it became a Lender.

SECTION 2.23. Certain Pricing Adjustments.

The Facility Fee, the applicable LIBOR Spread, the applicable FFR Spread and the Utilization Fee Percentage in effect from time to time shall be determined in accordance with the following table:


S&P/▇▇▇▇▇’▇/Fitch
Rating Equivalent
of the Borrower's			Applicable		Applicable		Utilization Fee
senior unsecured	Facility Fee		LIBOR Spread		FFR Spread		Percentage
long-term debt	(in Basis Points)		(in Basis Points)		(in Basis Points)		(in Basis Points)
A/A2/A or better		7.0		18.0		18.0		10.0
A-/A3/A-		8.0		22.0		22.0		10.0
BBB+/Baa1/BBB+		10.0		30.0		30.0		10.0
BBB/Baa2/BBB		12.0		38.0		38.0		10.0
BBB-/Baa3/BBB-		15.0		47.5		47.5		12.5
BB+/Ba1/BB+ or worse		17.5		70.0		70.0		12.5

In the event the S&P, ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇ ratings on the Borrower’s senior non-credit enhanced unsecured long-term debt are not equivalent to each other, the second highest rating among S&P, ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ and Fitch will determine Facility Fee, the applicable LIBOR Spread, the applicable FFR Spread and the Utilization Fee Percentage. In the event that (a) the Borrower’s senior non-credit enhanced unsecured long-term debt is rated by (i) Fitch and only one of S&P or ▇▇▇▇▇’▇, or (ii) only one of S&P or ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ (for any reason, including if S&P or ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations), and not by Fitch, or (b) if the rating system of any of S&P, ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ or Fitch shall change, then an amendment shall be negotiated in good faith (and shall be effective only upon approval by the Borrower and the Supermajority Lenders) to the references to specific ratings in the table above to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings from such rating agency (including an amendment to provide for the substitution of an equivalent or successor ratings agency). In the event that the Borrower’s senior non-credit enhanced unsecured long-term debt is (i) not rated by any of S&P, ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ or Fitch or (ii) rated only by Fitch, then the Facility Fee, the applicable LIBOR Spread, the applicable FFR Spread and the Utilization Fee Percentage shall be deemed to be calculated as if the lowest rating category set forth above applied. Any increase in the Facility Fee, the applicable LIBOR Spread, the applicable FFR Spread or the Utilization Fee Percentage determined in accordance with the foregoing table shall become effective on the date of announcement or publication by the Borrower or the applicable rating agency of a reduction in such rating or, in the absence of such announcement or publication, on the effective date of such decreased rating, or on the date of any request by the Borrower to the applicable rating agency not to rate its senior non-credit enhanced unsecured long-term debt or on the date any of such rating agencies announces it shall no longer rate the Borrower’s senior non-credit enhanced unsecured long-term debt. Any decrease in the Facility Fee, the applicable LIBOR Spread, the applicable FFR Spread or the Utilization Fee Percentage shall be effective on the date of announcement or

publication by any of such rating agencies of an increase in rating or in the absence of announcement or publication on the effective date of such increase in rating.

SECTION 2.24. Revolving Letters of Credit.

(a) (i) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, each Revolving Issuing Lender agrees to issue Revolving Letters of Credit payable in Dollars from time to time after the Closing Date and prior to the earlier of the Termination Date and the termination of the Revolving Commitments, upon the request of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower (other than the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower), provided that (A) the Borrower or applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall not request that any Revolving Letter of Credit be issued if, after giving effect thereto, the sum of the then current Revolving L/C Exposure plus the aggregate principal Dollar Equivalent Amount of the Loans then outstanding (other than Canadian Revolving Loans) would exceed the Total Revolving Commitment, (B) in no event shall any Revolving Issuing Lender issue (x) any Revolving Letter of Credit having an expiration date later than five Business Days before the Termination Date or (y) any Revolving Letter of Credit having an expiration date more than one year after its date of issuance, provided, further, that any Revolving Letter of Credit with a 365-day duration may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (x) above), (C) neither the Borrower, nor any Subsidiary Borrower shall request that a Revolving Issuing Lender issue any Revolving Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, the Revolving L/C Exposure would exceed $200,000,000, and (D) a Revolving Issuing Lender shall be prohibited from issuing or renewing Revolving Letters of Credit hereunder upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default.

(ii) Immediately upon the issuance of each Revolving Letter of Credit, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby agrees to, have irrevocably purchased from the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender, a participation in such Revolving Letter of Credit in accordance with the percentage which its Revolving Commitment represents of the Total Revolving Commitment.

(iii) Each Revolving Letter of Credit may, at the option of the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender, provide that such Revolving Issuing Lender may (but shall not be required to) pay all or any part of the maximum amount which may at any time be available for drawing thereunder to the beneficiary thereof upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and the acceleration of the maturity of the Revolving Credit Loans, provided that, if payment is not then due to such beneficiary, such Revolving Issuing Lender shall deposit the funds in question in an account with such Revolving Issuing Lender to secure payment to such beneficiary and any funds so deposited shall be paid to such beneficiary of such Revolving Letter of Credit if conditions to such payment are satisfied or returned to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Revolving Lenders (or, if all Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash, to the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower) if no payment to such beneficiary has been made and the final date available for drawings under such Revolving Letter of Credit has passed. Each payment or deposit of funds by a Revolving Issuing Lender as provided in this paragraph shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as a drawing duly honored by such Revolving Issuing Lender under the related Revolving Letter of Credit.

(b) Whenever the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower desires the issuance of a Revolving Letter of Credit, it shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender a written notice no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least five Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance provided, however, that the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower and the Administrative Agent and such Revolving Issuing Lender may agree to a shorter time period.

That notice shall specify (i) the Revolving Issuing Lender for such Revolving Letter of Credit, (ii) the proposed date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the face amount of such Revolving Letter of Credit, (iv) the expiration date of such Revolving Letter of Credit and (v) the name and address of the beneficiary. Such notice shall be accompanied by a brief description of the underlying transaction and upon the request of the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender, the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall provide additional details regarding the underlying transaction. Concurrently with the giving of written notice of a request for the issuance of a Revolving Letter of Credit, the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall specify a precise description of the documents and the verbatim text of any certificate to be presented by the beneficiary of such Revolving Letter of Credit which, if presented by such beneficiary prior to the expiration date of such Revolving Letter of Credit, would require the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender to make payment under such Revolving Letter of Credit; provided that the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender, in its reasonable discretion, may require customary changes in any such documents and certificates. Upon issuance of any Revolving Letter of Credit, the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent of the issuance of such Revolving Letter of Credit. Promptly after receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the issuance and the amount of each such Lender’s respective participation therein.

(c) The payment of drafts under any Revolving Letter of Credit shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Revolving Letter of Credit and, in that connection, any Revolving Issuing Lender shall be entitled to honor any drafts and accept any documents presented to it by the beneficiary of such Revolving Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of such Revolving Letter of Credit and believed by such Revolving Issuing Lender in good faith, and in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, to be genuine. No Revolving Issuing Lender shall have any duty to inquire as to the accuracy or authenticity of any draft or other drawing documents which may be presented to it, but shall be responsible only to determine in accordance with customary commercial practices, and in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, that the documents which are required to be presented before payment or acceptance of a draft under any Revolving Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of that Revolving Letter of Credit. The obligations of the Borrower and any Subsidiary Borrower under this Section 2.24 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower may have or have had against any Revolving Issuing Lender, any beneficiary of a Revolving Letter of Credit or any other Person.

(d) If any Revolving Issuing Lender shall make payment on any draft presented under a Revolving Letter of Credit, such Revolving Issuing Lender shall give notice of such payment to the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders and each Revolving Lender hereby authorizes and requests such Revolving Issuing Lender to advance for its account pursuant to the terms hereof its share of such payment based upon its participation in such Revolving Letter of Credit and agrees promptly to reimburse such Revolving Issuing Lender in immediately available funds for the Dollar amount so advanced on its behalf. If such reimbursement is not made by any Revolving Lender in immediately available funds on the same day on which such Revolving Issuing Lender shall have made payment on any such draft, such Lender shall pay interest thereon to such Revolving Issuing Lender at a rate per annum equal to the Revolving Issuing Lender’s cost of obtaining overnight funds in the New York Federal Funds Market.

(e) In the case of any draft presented under a Revolving Letter of Credit which is required to be paid at any time on or before the Termination Date and provided that the conditions specified in Section 4.2 are then satisfied, such payment shall constitute an ABR Loan hereunder, and interest shall accrue from the date the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender makes payment of a draft under the Revolving Letter of Credit. If any draft is presented under a Revolving Letter of Credit and (i) the conditions specified in Section 4.2 are not satisfied or (ii) if the Revolving Commitments have been

terminated, then the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower will, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender, in immediately available funds, the full amount of such draft.

(f) (i) The Borrower agrees to pay the following amount to each Revolving Issuing Lender with respect to Revolving Letters of Credit issued by it hereunder:

(A) with respect to drawings made under any Revolving Letter of Credit, interest, payable on demand, on the amount paid by such Revolving Issuing Lender in respect of each such drawing from the date of the drawing to, but excluding, the date such amount is reimbursed by the Borrower at a rate which is at all times equal to 2% per annum in excess of the Alternate Base Rate; provided that no such default interest shall be payable if such reimbursement is made from the proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 2.24(e);

(B) with respect to the issuance, amendment or transfer of each Revolving Letter of Credit and each drawing made thereunder, documentary and processing charges in accordance with such Revolving Issuing Lender’s standard schedule for such charges in effect at the time of such issuance, amendment, transfer or drawing, as the case may be; and

(C) a fronting fee computed at the rate agreed to by the Borrower and the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender, on the daily average face amount of each outstanding Revolving Letter of Credit issued by such Revolving Issuing Lender, such fee to be due and payable in arrears on and through the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower, on the Termination Date and on the expiration of the last outstanding Revolving Letter of Credit.

(ii) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for distribution to each Revolving Lender in respect of all Revolving Letters of Credit outstanding, such Lender’s pro rata share of a commission on the maximum amount available from time to time to be drawn under such outstanding Revolving Letters of Credit calculated at a rate per annum equal to the applicable LIBOR Spread from time to time in effect hereunder. Such commission shall be payable in arrears on and through the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower and on the later of the Termination Date and the expiration of the last outstanding Revolving Letter of Credit.

(iii) Promptly upon receipt by any Revolving Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent (as applicable) of any amount described in clause (i)(A) or (ii) of this Section 2.24(f), or any amount described in Section 2.24(e) previously reimbursed to the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender by the Revolving Lenders, such Revolving Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent (as applicable) shall distribute to each Revolving Lender its pro rata share of such amount. Amounts payable under clauses (i)(B) and (i)(C) of this Section 2.24(f) shall be paid directly to the Revolving Issuing Lender and shall be for its exclusive use.

(g) If by reason of (i) any change after the date hereof in Applicable Law, or in the interpretation or administration thereof (including, without limitation, any request, guideline or policy not having the force of law) by any Governmental Authority charged with the administration or interpretation thereof, or (ii) compliance by any Revolving Issuing Lender or any Revolving Lender with any direction, request or requirement (whether or not having the force of law) issued after the date hereof by any

Governmental Authority or monetary authority (including any change whether or not proposed or published prior to the date hereof), including, without limitation, Regulation D of the Board:

(A) any Revolving Issuing Lender or any Revolving Lender shall be subject to any tax, levy, charge or withholding of any nature (other than withholding tax imposed by the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein or any other tax, levy, charge or withholding (i) that is measured with respect to the overall net income of such Revolving Issuing Lender or such Lender (or is imposed in lieu of a tax on net income) or of a Lending Office of such Revolving Issuing Lender or such Lender, and that is imposed by the United States, or by the jurisdiction in which such Revolving Issuing Lender or such Lender is incorporated, or in which such Lending Office is located, managed or controlled or in which such Revolving Issuing Lender or such Lender has its principal office (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) or (ii) that is imposed solely by reason of such Revolving Issuing Lender or such Lender failing to make a declaration of, or otherwise to establish, non-residence, or to make any other claim for exemption, or otherwise to comply with any certification, identification, information, documentation or reporting requirements prescribed under the laws of the relevant jurisdiction, in those cases where such Revolving Issuing Lender or such Lender may properly make the declaration or claim or so establish non-residence or otherwise comply) or to any variation thereof or to any penalty with respect to the maintenance or fulfillment of its obligations under this Section 2.24, whether directly or by such being imposed on or suffered by any Revolving Issuing Lender or any Lender;

(B) any reserve, deposit or similar requirement is or shall be applicable, imposed or modified in respect of any Revolving Letter of Credit issued by any Revolving Issuing Lender or participations therein purchased by any Revolving Lender; or

(C) there shall be imposed on any Revolving Issuing Lender or any Revolving Lender any other condition regarding this Section 2.24, any Revolving Letter of Credit or any participation therein;

and the result of the foregoing is directly or indirectly to increase the cost to any Revolving Issuing Lender or any Revolving Lender of issuing, making or maintaining any Revolving Letter of Credit or of purchasing or maintaining any participation therein, or to reduce the amount receivable in respect thereof by any Revolving Issuing Lender or any Revolving Lender, then and in any such case such Revolving Issuing Lender or such Lender may, at any time, notify the Borrower, and the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower shall pay on demand such amounts as such Revolving Issuing Lender or such Lender may specify to be necessary to compensate such Revolving Issuing Lender or such Lender for such additional cost or reduced receipt. The determination by any Revolving Issuing Lender or any Revolving Lender, as the case may be, of any amount due pursuant to this Section 2.24 as set forth in a certificate setting forth the calculation thereof in reasonable detail shall, in the absence of manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding on all of the parties hereto.

(h) If at any time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any Revolving Letters of Credit shall remain outstanding, then either the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender(s) or the Required Lenders may, at their option, require the Borrower or any applicable Subsidiary Borrower to deposit cash or Cash Equivalents in a Cash Collateral Account in an amount equal to the full

amount of the Revolving L/C Exposure or to furnish other security acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender(s). Any amounts so delivered pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be applied to reimburse the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender(s) for the amount of any drawings honored under Revolving Letters of Credit issued by it; provided, however, that if prior to the Termination Date, no Event of Default is then continuing, the Administrative Agent shall return all of such collateral relating to such deposit to the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower if requested by it.

(i) If, at any time, the Revolving L/C Exposure exceeds the Total Revolving Commitment, then the Required Lenders may, at their option, require the Borrower or any applicable Subsidiary Borrower to deposit cash or Cash Equivalents in a Cash Collateral Account in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess or to furnish other security for such excess acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Issuing Lender(s). Any amounts so delivered pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be applied to reimburse the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender(s) for the amount of any drawings honored under Revolving Letters of Credit and to repay all funded participations therein of Revolving Lenders; provided that if subsequent to any such deposit such excess is reduced to an amount less than the portion of such deposited amounts and no Default or Event of Default is then continuing, the Borrower or such Subsidiary Borrower shall be entitled to receive such excess collateral if requested by it.

(j) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, each Revolving Issuing Lender shall furnish to the Administrative Agent copies of any Revolving Letter of Credit issued by such Revolving Issuing Lender and such related documentation as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent.

(k) Upon the Closing Date, all Existing Revolving Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have ceased to be outstanding under the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement and shall be deemed instead to have been issued under this Agreement on the Closing Date and to be outstanding under this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not relieve the Borrower of any liability it may have under or in respect of the Existing Revolving Letters of Credit or modify or impair any rights of any other person under or in respect of the Existing Revolving Letters of Credit.

(l) The Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Issuing Lender(s) and the Lenders that Schedule 2.24(l) to this Agreement sets forth a true and complete listing of all Existing Revolving Letters of Credit.

Notwithstanding the termination of the Commitments and the payment of the Loans, the obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.24 shall remain in full force and effect until the Administrative Agent, each Revolving Issuing Lender and the Revolving Lenders shall have been irrevocably released from their obligations with regard to any and all Revolving Letters of Credit.

SECTION 2.25. Canadian Letters of Credit.

(a) (i) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, the Canadian Revolving Lender agrees to issue Canadian Letters of Credit payable in Canadian Dollars or Dollars from time to time after the Closing Date and prior to the earlier of the Termination Date and the termination of the Canadian Revolving Commitment, upon the request of the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower, provided that (A) the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower shall not request that any Canadian Letter of Credit be issued if, after giving effect thereto, the sum of the then current Canadian L/C Exposure plus the aggregate principal Dollar Equivalent Amount of the Canadian Revolving Loans then outstanding would exceed the Canadian Revolving Commitment, (B) in no event shall the Canadian Revolving Lender issue (x) any

Canadian Letter of Credit having an expiration date later than five Business Days before the Termination Date or (y) any Canadian Letter of Credit having an expiration date more than one year after its date of issuance, provided, further, that any Canadian Letter of Credit with a 365-day duration may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (x) above), and (C) the Canadian Revolving Lender shall be prohibited from issuing or renewing Canadian Letters of Credit hereunder upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default.

(ii) Each Canadian Letter of Credit may, at the option of the Canadian Revolving Lender, provide that the Canadian Revolving Lender may (but shall not be required to) pay all or any part of the maximum amount which may at any time be available for drawing thereunder to the beneficiary thereof upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and the acceleration of the maturity of the Canadian Revolving Loans, provided that, if payment is not then due to such beneficiary, the Canadian Revolving Lender shall deposit the funds in question in an account with the Canadian Revolving Lender to secure payment to such beneficiary and any funds so deposited shall be paid to such beneficiary of such Canadian Letter of Credit if conditions to such payment are satisfied (or, if all Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash, to the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower) if no payment to such beneficiary has been made and the final date available for drawings under such Canadian Letter of Credit has passed. Each payment or deposit of funds by the Canadian Revolving Lender as provided in this paragraph shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as a drawing duly honored by the Canadian Revolving Lender under the related Canadian Letter of Credit.

(b) Whenever the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower desires the issuance of a Canadian Letter of Credit, it shall deliver to the Canadian Revolving Lender and the Administrative Agent a written notice no later than 1:00 p.m. (Toronto time) at least five Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance provided, however, that the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower and the Canadian Revolving Lender may agree to a shorter time period. That notice shall specify (i) the proposed date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the face amount of such Canadian Letter of Credit, (iii) the expiration date of such Canadian Letter of Credit and (iv) the name and address of the beneficiary. Such notice shall be accompanied by a brief description of the underlying transaction and upon the request of the Canadian Revolving Lender, the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower shall provide additional details regarding the underlying transaction. Concurrently with the giving of written notice of a request for the issuance of a Canadian Letter of Credit, the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower shall specify a precise description of the documents and the verbatim text of any certificate to be presented by the beneficiary of such Canadian Letter of Credit which, if presented by such beneficiary prior to the expiration date of such Canadian Letter of Credit, would require the Canadian Revolving Lender to make payment under such Canadian Letter of Credit; provided that the Canadian Revolving Lender, in its reasonable discretion, may require customary changes in any such documents and certificates. Upon issuance of any Canadian Letter of Credit, the Canadian Revolving Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent of the issuance of such Canadian Letter of Credit.

(c) The payment of drafts under any Canadian Letter of Credit shall be made in accordance with the terms of such Canadian Letter of Credit and, in that connection, the Canadian Revolving Lender shall be entitled to honor any drafts and accept any documents presented to it by the beneficiary of such Canadian Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of such Canadian Letter of Credit and believed by the Canadian Revolving Lender in good faith, and in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, to be genuine. The Canadian Revolving Lender shall have no duty to inquire as to the accuracy or authenticity of any draft or other drawing documents which may be presented to it, but shall be responsible only to determine in accordance with customary commercial

practices, and in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, that the documents which are required to be presented before payment or acceptance of a draft under any Canadian Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of that Canadian Letter of Credit. The obligations of the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower under this Section 2.25 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower may have or have had against the Canadian Revolving Lender, any beneficiary of a Canadian Letter of Credit or any other Person.

(d) If the Canadian Revolving Lender shall make payment on any draft presented under a Canadian Letter of Credit, the Canadian Revolving Lender shall give notice of such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(e) In the case of any draft presented under a Canadian Letter of Credit which is required to be paid at any time on or before the Termination Date and provided that the conditions specified in Section 4.2 are then satisfied, such payment shall constitute a Canadian Prime Rate Loan or Canadian ABR Loan hereunder, and interest shall accrue from the date the Canadian Revolving Lender makes payment of a draft under the Canadian Letter of Credit. If any draft is presented under a Canadian Letter of Credit and (i) the conditions specified in Section 4.2 are not satisfied or (ii) if the Revolving Commitments have been terminated, then the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower will, upon demand by the Canadian Revolving Lender, pay to it, in immediately available funds, the full amount of such draft.

(f) (i) The Canadian Subsidiary Borrower agrees to pay the following amount to the Canadian Revolving Lender with respect to Canadian Letters of Credit issued by it hereunder:

(A) with respect to drawings made under any Canadian Letter of Credit, interest, payable on demand, on the amount paid by the Canadian Revolving Lender in respect of each such drawing from the date of the drawing to, but excluding, the date such amount is reimbursed by the Borrower at a rate which is at all times equal to 2% per annum in excess of the Canadian Prime Rate or Canadian Alternate Base Rate, as applicable; provided that no such default interest shall be payable if such reimbursement is made from the proceeds of Canadian Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.25(e);

(B) with respect to the issuance, amendment or transfer of each Canadian Letter of Credit and each drawing made thereunder, documentary and processing charges in accordance with the Canadian Revolving Lender’s standard schedule for such charges in effect at the time of such issuance, amendment, transfer or drawing, as the case may be; and

(C) a fronting fee computed at the rate agreed to by the Borrower and the Canadian Revolving Lender, on the daily average face amount of each outstanding Canadian Letter of Credit issued by the Canadian Revolving Lender, such fee to be due and payable in arrears on and through the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower, on the Termination Date and on the expiration of the last outstanding Canadian Letter of Credit.

(ii) The Canadian Subsidiary Borrower agrees to pay to the Canadian Revolving Lender in respect of all Canadian Letters of Credit outstanding, a commission on the maximum amount available from time to time to be drawn under such outstanding Canadian Letters of Credit calculated at a rate per annum equal to the applicable LIBOR Spread from time to time in effect hereunder on each Canadian Letter of Credit. Such

commission shall be payable in arrears on and through the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower and on the later of the Termination Date and the expiration of the last outstanding Canadian Letter of Credit.

(g) If by reason of (i) any change after the date hereof in Applicable Law, or in the interpretation or administration thereof (including, without limitation, any request, guideline or policy not having the force of law) by any Governmental Authority charged with the administration or interpretation thereof, or (ii) compliance by the Canadian Revolving Lender with any direction, request or requirement (whether or not having the force of law) issued after the date hereof by any Governmental Authority or monetary authority (including any change whether or not proposed or published prior to the date hereof):

(A) the Canadian Revolving Lender shall be subject to any tax, levy, charge or withholding of any nature (other than withholding tax imposed by Canada or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein or any other tax, levy, charge or withholding (i) that is measured with respect to the overall net income of the Canadian Revolving Lender (or is imposed in lieu of a tax on net income) or of a Lending Office of the Canadian Revolving Lender, and that is imposed by the jurisdiction in which the Canadian Revolving Lender is incorporated, or in which such Lending Office is located, managed or controlled or in which the Canadian Revolving Lender has its principal office (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) or (ii) that is imposed solely by reason of the Canadian Revolving Lender failing to make a declaration of, or otherwise to establish, non-residence, or to make any other claim for exemption, or otherwise to comply with any certification, identification, information, documentation or reporting requirements prescribed under the laws of the relevant jurisdiction, in those cases where the Canadian Revolving Lender may properly make the declaration or claim or so establish non-residence or otherwise comply) or to any variation thereof or to any penalty with respect to the maintenance or fulfillment of its obligations under this Section 2.25, whether directly or by such being imposed on or suffered by the Canadian Revolving Lender;

(B) any reserve, deposit or similar requirement is or shall be applicable, imposed or modified in respect of any Canadian Letter of Credit issued by the Canadian Revolving Lender; or

(C) there shall be imposed on the Canadian Revolving Lender any other condition regarding this Section 2.25, any Canadian Letter of Credit or any participation therein;

and the result of the foregoing is directly or indirectly to increase the cost to any Canadian Revolving Lender of issuing, making or maintaining any Canadian Letter of Credit, or to reduce the amount receivable in respect thereof by the Canadian Revolving Lender, then and in any such case the Canadian Revolving Lender may, at any time, notify the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower, and the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower shall pay on demand such amounts as the Canadian Revolving Lender may specify to be necessary to compensate the Canadian Revolving Lender for such additional cost or reduced receipt. The determination by the Canadian Revolving Lender of any amount due pursuant to this Section 2.25 as set forth in a certificate setting forth the calculation thereof in reasonable detail shall, in the absence of manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding on all of the parties hereto.

(h) If at any time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any Canadian Letters of Credit shall remain outstanding, then the Canadian Revolving Lender may, at its sole option, require the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower to deposit cash or Cash Equivalents in a Canadian Cash Collateral Account in an amount equal to the full amount of the Canadian L/C Exposure or to furnish other security acceptable to the Canadian Revolving Lender. Any amounts so delivered pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be applied to reimburse the Canadian Revolving Lender for the amount of any drawings honored under Canadian Letters of Credit issued by it; provided, however, that if prior to the Termination Date, no Event of Default is then continuing, the Canadian Revolving Lender shall return all of such collateral relating to such deposit to the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower if requested by it.

(i) If, at any time, the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the Canadian L/C Exposure exceeds the Canadian Revolving Commitment, then the Canadian Revolving Lender may, at its option, require the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower to deposit cash or Cash Equivalents in a Canadian Cash Collateral Account in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess or to furnish other security for such excess acceptable to the Canadian Revolving Lender. Any amounts so delivered pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be applied to reimburse the Canadian Revolving Lender for the amount of any drawings honored under Canadian Letters of Credit; provided that if subsequent to any such deposit such excess is reduced to an amount less than the portion of such deposited amounts and no Default or Event of Default is then continuing, the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower shall be entitled to receive such excess collateral if requested by it.

(j) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Revolving Lender shall furnish to the Administrative Agent copies of any Canadian Letter of Credit issued by the Canadian Revolving Lender and such related documentation as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent.

(k) Upon the Closing Date, all Existing Canadian Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have ceased to be outstanding under the Existing Canadian Credit Agreement and shall be deemed instead to have been issued under this Agreement on the Closing Date and to be outstanding under this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not relieve the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower of any liability it may have under or in respect of the Existing Canadian Letters of Credit or modify or impair any rights of any other person under or in respect of the Existing Canadian Letters of Credit.

(l) The Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Revolving Lender that Schedule 2.25(l) to this Agreement sets forth a true and complete listing of all Existing Canadian Letters of Credit.

Notwithstanding the termination of the Commitments and the payment of the Loans, the obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.25 shall remain in full force and effect until the Canadian Revolving Lender shall have been irrevocably released from its obligations with regard to any and all Canadian Letters of Credit.

SECTION 2.26. Canadian Bankers’ Acceptances.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower may present drafts for acceptance and purchase as Canadian B/As by the Canadian Revolving Lender.

(b) No Contract Period with respect to a Canadian B/A shall extend beyond the Termination Date.

(c) To facilitate extensions of credit under the Canadian Revolving Commitment by way of Canadian B/As, the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower hereby appoints the Canadian Revolving Lender as its attorney to sign and endorse on its behalf, in writing or by facsimile or mechanical signature as and when deemed necessary by the Canadian Revolving Lender, blank forms of Canadian B/As. In this respect, it is the Canadian Revolving Lender’s responsibility to maintain an adequate supply of blank forms of Canadian B/As for acceptance under this Agreement. The Canadian Subsidiary Borrower recognizes and agrees that all Canadian B/As signed and/or endorsed on their behalf by the Canadian Revolving Lender shall bind the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower as fully and effectually as if signed in the handwriting of and duly issued by the proper signing officers of the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower. The Canadian Revolving Lender is hereby authorized to issue such Canadian B/As endorsed in blank in such face amounts as may be determined by the Canadian Revolving Lender; provided that the aggregate amount thereof is equal to the aggregate amount of Canadian B/As required to be accepted and purchased by the Canadian Revolving Lender. The Canadian Revolving Lender shall not be liable for any damage, loss or other claim arising by reason of any loss or improper use of any such instrument except the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Canadian Revolving Lender or its officers, employees, agents or representatives. The Canadian Revolving Lender shall maintain a record with respect to Canadian B/As (a) voided by it for any reason, (b) accepted and purchased by it hereunder and (c) cancelled at their respective maturities. The Canadian Revolving Lender further agrees to retain such records in the manner and for the statutory periods provided in the various provincial or federal statutes and regulations which apply to the Canadian Revolving Lender. The Canadian Revolving Lender agrees to provide such records to the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower at the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower’s expense upon request. On request by or on behalf of the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower, the Canadian Revolving Lender shall cancel all forms of Canadian B/A which have been pre-signed or pre-endorsed on behalf of the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower and which are held by the Canadian Revolving Lender and are not required to be issued in accordance with the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower’s irrevocable notice.

(d) Drafts of the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower to be accepted as Canadian B/As hereunder shall be signed as set forth in this Section 2.26. Notwithstanding that any person whose signature appears on any Canadian B/A may no longer be an authorized signatory for the Canadian Revolving Lender or the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower at the date of issuance of a Canadian B/A, such signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes as if such authority had remained in force at the time of such issuance and any such Canadian B/A so signed shall be binding on the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower.

(e) Any refinancing by way of a Canadian B/As shall be made in accordance with Section 2.6 and Section 2.7.

(f) Upon acceptance of a Canadian B/A by the Canadian Revolving Lender, the Canadian Revolving Lender shall purchase, or arrange the purchase of, such Canadian B/A from the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower at the Discount Rate applicable to such Canadian B/A and provide the Discount Proceeds to the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower. The Acceptance Fee payable by the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower to the Canadian Revolving Lender under Section 2.10 in respect of each Canadian B/A accepted by the Canadian Revolving Lender shall be set off against the Discount Proceeds payable by the Canadian Revolving Lender under this Section 2.26.

(g) The Canadian Revolving Lender may at any time and from time to time hold, sell, rediscount or otherwise dispose of any or all Canadian B/As accepted and purchased by it.

(h) The Canadian Subsidiary Borrower waives presentment for payment and any other defense to payment of any amounts due to the Canadian Revolving Lender in respect of a Canadian B/A accepted and purchased by it pursuant to this Agreement which might exist solely by reason of such

Canadian B/A being held, at the maturity thereof, by the Canadian Revolving Lender in its own right and the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower agrees not to claim any days of grace if the Canadian Revolving Lender as holder sues the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower on the Canadian B/A for payment of the amount payable by the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower thereunder. On the specified maturity date of a Canadian B/A, or such earlier date as may be required or permitted pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower shall pay the Canadian Revolving Lender the full face amount of such Canadian B/A and after such payment, the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower shall have no further liability in respect of such Canadian B/A and the Canadian Revolving Lender shall be entitled to all benefits of, and be responsible for all payments due to third parties under, such Canadian B/A.

(i) If at any time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any Canadian B/As shall remain outstanding, then the Canadian Revolving Lender may, at its sole option, require the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower to deposit cash or Cash Equivalents in a Canadian Cash Collateral Account in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the full face amount of all outstanding Canadian B/As; provided, however, that if prior to the Termination Date, no Event of Default is then continuing, the Canadian Revolving Lender shall return all of such collateral relating to such deposit to the Canadian Subsidiary Borrower if requested by it.

SECTION 3.2. Corporate Authority and No Violation.

The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Fundamental Documents and the borrowings and making of other extensions of credit hereunder (a) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Borrower, (b) will not violate any provision of any Applicable Law applicable to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties or assets, (c) will not violate any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any material Contractual Obligation of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (d) will not be in conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under, any material indenture, agreement, bond, note or instrument and (e) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property or assets of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries other than pursuant to this Agreement or any other Fundamental Document.

No action, consent or approval of, or registration or filing with, or any other action by, any governmental agency, bureau, commission or court is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance (including the borrowings and making of other extensions of credit hereunder) by the Borrower of this Agreement or the other Fundamental Documents.

Except for the Disclosed Matters, since December 31, 2004 there has been no material adverse change in the business, assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise, of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries taken as a whole; provided that the foregoing representation is made solely as of the Closing Date.

SECTION 3.6. Copyrights, Patents and Other Rights.

Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, tradenames, service marks, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property material to its business, and the use thereof by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries does not infringe upon the rights of any other Person, except for any such infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.7. Title to Properties.

Each of the Borrower and its Material Subsidiaries will have at the Closing Date good title or valid leasehold interests to each of the properties and assets reflected on the balance sheets referred to in Section 3.4 (other than properties or assets owned by ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Gate Residential Mortgage Trust), except for minor defects in title that do not interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such properties for their intended purposes, and all such properties and assets will be free and clear of Liens, except Permitted Encumbrances.

SECTION 3.8. Litigation.

There are no lawsuits or other proceedings pending (including, but not limited to, matters relating to environmental liability), or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened, against or affecting the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties, by or before any Governmental Authority or arbitrator, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.10. Investment Company Act, Public Utility Company Act.

The Borrower is not, and will not during the term of this Agreement be, (x) an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended or (y) subject to regulation under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 or the Federal Power Act.

SECTION 3.11. Enforceability.

SECTION 3.12. Taxes.

The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries have filed or caused to be filed all federal, provincial, state and local tax returns which are required to be filed, and have paid or have caused to be paid all taxes as shown on said returns or on any assessment received by them in writing, to the extent that such taxes have become due, except (a) as permitted by Section 5.4 or (b) to the extent that the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.13. Compliance with ERISA.

Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is in compliance in all material respects with the provisions of ERISA and the Code applicable to Plans, and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder, if any, which are applicable to it and the applicable laws, rules and regulations of any jurisdiction applicable to Plans. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has, with respect to any Plan, engaged in a prohibited transaction which would subject it to a material tax or penalty on prohibited transactions imposed by ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. No liability to the PBGC that is material to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole has been, or to the Borrower’s best knowledge is reasonably expected to be, incurred with respect to the Plans and there has been no Reportable Event and no other event or condition that presents a material risk of termination of a Plan by the PBGC.

As of the Closing Date, neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries contributes to a Multiemployer Plan, and has not incurred any liability that would be material to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole on account of a partial or complete withdrawal (as defined in Sections 4203 and 4205 of ERISA, respectively) with respect to any Multiemployer Plan.

SECTION 3.14. Disclosure.

As of the Closing Date, neither this Agreement nor the Confidential Information Memorandum, at the time it was furnished, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact, under the circumstances under which it was made, necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading. The Confidential Information Memorandum

contains certain projections relating to the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries. Such projections are based on good faith estimates and assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time made, provided, however, that the Borrower makes no representation or warranty that such assumptions will prove in the future to be accurate or that the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries will achieve the financial results reflected in such projections. At the Closing Date, there is no fact known to the Borrower which, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.15. Environmental Liabilities.

Except with respect to any matters, that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) has failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any permit, license or other approval required under any Environmental Law, (ii) has become subject to any Environmental Liability, (iii) has received notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability or (iv) knows of any basis for any Environmental Liability.

8. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH REVOLVING ISSUING LENDER

SECTION 8.1. Administration by Administrative Agent.

The general administration of the Fundamental Documents and any other documents contemplated by this Agreement shall be by the Administrative Agent or its designees as provided for herein. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, at its discretion, to take or refrain from taking such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise or refrain from exercising such powers under the Fundamental Documents and any other documents contemplated by this Agreement as are delegated by the terms hereof or thereof, as appropriate, together with all powers reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except as set forth in the Fundamental Documents.

SECTION 8.2. Advances and Payments.

(a) On the date of each Loan, the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (but not obligated) to advance, for the account of each of the applicable Lenders, the amount of the Loan to be made by it in accordance with this Agreement. Each of the Lenders hereby authorizes and requests the Administrative Agent to advance for its account, pursuant to the terms hereof, the amount of the Loan to be made by it, unless with respect to any Lender, such Lender has theretofore specifically notified the Administrative Agent that such Lender does not intend to fund that particular Loan. Each of the Lenders agrees forthwith to reimburse the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the amount so advanced on its behalf by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. If any such reimbursement is not made in immediately available funds on the same day on which the Administrative Agent shall have made any such amount available on behalf of any Lender in accordance with this Section 8.2, such Lender shall pay interest to the Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to the Administrative Agent’s cost of obtaining overnight funds in the New York Federal Funds Market (or such other equivalent source of funds, as determined by the Administrative Agent, in respect of Loans denominated in a currency other than Dollars) for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if such reimbursement is not made by the second Business Day following the day on which the Administrative Agent shall have made any such amount available on behalf of any Lender or such Lender has indicated that it does not intend to reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall immediately pay such

unreimbursed advance amount (plus any accrued, but unpaid interest at the rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to such Loan) to the Administrative Agent.

(b) Any amounts received by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement or the Loans the application of which is not otherwise provided for shall be applied, in accordance with each of the Lenders’ pro rata interest therein, first, to pay accrued but unpaid Facility Fees and Utilization Fees, second, to pay accrued but unpaid interest on the Loans, third, to pay the principal balance outstanding on the Loans and fourth, to pay other amounts payable to the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders. All amounts to be paid to any of the Lenders by the Administrative Agent shall be credited to the applicable Lenders, after collection by the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds either by wire transfer or deposit in such Lender’s correspondent account with the Administrative Agent, or as such Lender and the Administrative Agent shall from time to time agree.

SECTION 8.3. Sharing of Setoffs and Cash Collateral.

Each of the Revolving Lenders agrees that if it shall, through the operation of Section 2.20, Section 2.24(h) or Section 2.24(i) or the exercise of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower, including, but not limited to, a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim and received by such Revolving Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or otherwise (other than pursuant to Section 2.16(f)), obtain payment in respect of its Revolving Credit Loans or participations in Revolving Letters of Credit as a result of which the unpaid portion of its Revolving Credit Loans or Revolving L/C Exposure is proportionately less than the unpaid portion of any of the other Revolving Lenders (a) it shall promptly purchase at par (and shall be deemed to have thereupon purchased) from such other Revolving Lenders a participation in the Revolving Credit Loans or Revolving L/C Exposure of such other Revolving Lenders, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of each of the Revolving Lenders’ Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving L/C Exposure and its participation in Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving L/C Exposure of the other Revolving Lenders shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving L/C Exposure then outstanding as the principal amount of its Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving L/C Exposure prior to the obtaining of such payment was to the principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving L/C Exposure outstanding prior to the obtaining of such payment and (b) such other adjustments shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that the Revolving Lenders share such payment pro rata.

SECTION 8.4. Notice to the Lenders.

Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower of any communication calling for an action on the part of the Lenders, or upon notice to the Administrative Agent of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent will in turn immediately inform the other Lenders in writing (which shall include telegraphic communications) of the nature of such communication or of the Event of Default, as the case may be.

SECTION 8.5. Liability of the Administrative Agent and Each Revolving Issuing Lender.

(a) The Administrative Agent or any Revolving Issuing Lender, when acting on behalf of the Lenders may execute any of its duties under this Agreement by or through its officers, agents, or employees and neither the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Issuing Lenders nor their respective directors, officers, agents, or employees shall be liable to the Lenders or any of them for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith, or be responsible to the Lenders or to any of them for the

consequences of any oversight or error of judgment, or for any loss, unless the same shall happen through its gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Issuing Lenders nor their respective directors, officers, agents, and employees shall in any event be liable to the Lenders or to any of them for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it pursuant to instructions received by it from the Required Lenders or in reliance upon the advice of counsel selected by it.

(b) Neither the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Issuing Lenders, nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees, or agents shall have any responsibility to the Borrower on account of the failure or delay in performance or breach by any of the Lenders or the Borrower of any of their respective obligations under this Agreement or any related agreement or document or in connection herewith or therewith.

(c) The Administrative Agent and the Revolving Issuing Lenders, in such capacities hereunder, shall be entitled to rely on any communication, instrument, or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine or correct and to have been signed or sent by a Person or Persons believed by it to be the proper Person or Persons, and it shall be entitled to rely on advice of legal counsel, independent public accountants, and other professional advisers and experts selected by it.

SECTION 8.6. Reimbursement and Indemnification.

Each of the Lenders severally and not jointly agrees (i) to reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers, in the amount of its proportionate share, for any reasonable expenses and fees incurred for the benefit of the Lenders under the Fundamental Documents, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders, and any other reasonable expense incurred in connection with the administration or enforcement thereof not reimbursed by the Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries; and (ii) to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers and any of their directors, officers, employees, or agents, on demand, in the amount of its proportionate share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against it or any of them in any way relating to or arising out of the Fundamental Documents or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under the Fundamental Documents to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries (except such as shall result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person seeking indemnification).

SECTION 8.7. Rights of Administrative Agent.

It is understood and agreed that JPMorgan Chase Bank shall have the same rights and powers hereunder (including the right to give such instructions) as the other Lenders and may exercise such rights and powers, as well as its rights and powers under other agreements and instruments to which it is or may be party, and engage in other transactions with the Borrower as though it were not the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under this Agreement.

SECTION 8.8. Independent Investigation by Lenders.

Each of the Lenders acknowledges that it has decided to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans and participate in the Letters of Credit hereunder based on its own analysis of the transactions contemplated hereby and of the creditworthiness of the Borrower and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Revolving Issuing Lender shall bear responsibility therefor.

SECTION 8.9. Notice of Transfer.

The Administrative Agent and the Revolving Issuing Lenders may deem and treat any Lender which is a party to this Agreement as the owners of such Lender’s respective portions of the Loans and Letter of Credit reimbursement rights for all purposes, unless and until a written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof executed by any such Lender shall have been received by the Administrative Agent and become effective pursuant to Section 10.3.

SECTION 8.10. Successor Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent from among the Lenders, with the consent of the Borrower, which will not be unreasonably withheld. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which with the consent of the Borrower, which will not be unreasonably withheld, shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement.

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guaranties to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment and performance by any Subsidiary Borrower when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations.

(b) The Borrower further agrees to pay any and all expenses (including, without limitation, all fees and disbursements of counsel) which may be paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Revolving Issuing Lender or any Lender in enforcing, or obtaining advice of counsel in respect of, any rights with respect to, or collecting, any or all of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations and/or enforcing any rights with respect to, or collecting against, any Subsidiary Borrower under this Parent Guaranty; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm for the Lenders or any Revolving Issuing Lender (unless there shall exist an actual conflict of interest among such Persons, and in such case, not more than two separate firms) in connection with any one such action or any separate, but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction, nor shall the Borrower be liable for any settlement or proceeding effected without the Borrower’s written consent. This Parent Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated.

(c) No payment or payments made by any Subsidiary Borrower or any other Person or received or collected by the Administrative Agent or any Lender from any Subsidiary Borrower or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application, at any time or from time to time, in reduction of or in payment of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of the Borrower hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment or payments (other than payments made by the Borrower in respect of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations or payments received or collected from the Borrower in respect of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations), remain liable for the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations until the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated.

(d) The Borrower agrees that whenever, at any time, or from time to time, it shall make any payment to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on account of its liability hereunder, it will notify the Administrative Agent and such Lender in writing that such payment is made under this Parent Guaranty for such purpose.

SECTION 9.2. No Subrogation.

Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by the Borrower under this Parent Guaranty, or any set-off or application of funds of the Borrower by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, the Borrower shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against any Subsidiary Borrower or against any collateral security or guaranty or right of offset held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations, nor shall the Borrower seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from any Subsidiary Borrower in respect of payments made by the Borrower under this Parent Guaranty, until all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders by the Subsidiary Borrowers on account of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated. If any amount shall be paid to the Borrower on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be

held by the Borrower in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, segregated from other funds of the Borrower, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by the Borrower, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by the Borrower (duly indorsed by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations or for the Parent Guaranty under this Article 9 or any property subject thereto. When making any demand hereunder against the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on any Subsidiary Borrower, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make any such demand or to collect any payments from any Subsidiary Borrower or any release of any Subsidiary Borrower shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

The Borrower waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon this Parent Guaranty or acceptance of the Parent Guaranty under this Article 9; the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the Parent Guaranty under this Article 9; and all dealings between any Subsidiary Borrower and the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the Parent Guaranty under this Article 9. The Borrower waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon any Subsidiary Borrower or the Borrower with respect to the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations. The Parent Guaranty under this Article 9 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guaranty of payment without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guaranty or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by any Subsidiary Borrower against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge

of such Subsidiary Borrower or the Borrower) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of a Subsidiary Borrower for its Subsidiary Borrower Obligations, or of the Borrower under the Parent Guaranty under this Article 9, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against any Subsidiary Borrower or any other Person or against any collateral security or guaranty for the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from any Subsidiary Borrower or any such other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guaranty or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of any Subsidiary Borrower or any such other Person or of any such collateral security, guaranty or right of offset, shall not relieve the Borrower of any liability under this Parent Guaranty, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower. The Parent Guaranty under this Article 9 shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Borrower and its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, until all the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations and the obligations of the Borrower under the Parent Guaranty under this Article 9 shall have been satisfied by payment in full and the Commitments shall be terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement any Subsidiary Borrower may be free from any Subsidiary Borrower Obligations.

SECTION 9.5. Reinstatement.

The Parent Guaranty under this Article 9 shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Subsidiary Borrower Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of any Subsidiary Borrower or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, any Subsidiary Borrower or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

SECTION 10.7. No Waiver.

No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent, any Revolving Issuing Lender or any Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder or with regard to the Letters of Credit shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.
