W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, under the Credit Agreement, dated as January 28, 2013 (as amended, modified or otherwise supplemented prior to the date hereof, the “Prior ABL Credit Agreement”), by and among Axiall, Canadian Borrower, the lenders and letter of credit issuers party thereto (collectively, the “Prior ABL Credit Agreement Lenders”) and GE Capital as agent for the Prior ABL Credit Agreement Lenders, the Prior ABL Credit Agreement Lenders made available to Axiall and Canadian Borrower a revolving asset-based credit facility;

WHEREAS, the Borrowers have requested that the Lenders enter into this Agreement in order to (a) amend and restate the Prior ABL Credit Agreement and renew and continue the loans (such loans, the “Prior ABL Credit Agreement Loans”) and commitments thereunder in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000,000 (the “Prior ABL Credit Agreement Commitments”) and (b) extend additional credit to the Borrowers hereunder in the aggregate principal amount of $100,000,000 (the “Upsize ABL Commitments”) subject to the terms and conditions herein (the “Transactions”);

WHEREAS, the Borrowers have requested, and the Lenders have agreed to make available to the Borrowers, a revolving credit facility (including subfacilities for letters of credit, swing loans and export-related loans) subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement to (a) provide for working capital and other general corporate purposes of the Borrowers and (b) fund certain fees and expenses associated with the funding of the Loans and the Transactions;

WHEREAS, subject to the terms hereof, (i) each U.S. Subsidiary of Axiall that is a U.S. Credit Party is willing to guarantee all of the Obligations of the Borrowers and to grant to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in and lien upon all of its U.S. Collateral and (ii) each Canadian Subsidiary of Axiall that is a Canadian Credit

Party is willing to guarantee all of the Obligations of the Canadian Borrower and to grant to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in and lien upon substantially all of its Canadian Collateral;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I.
THE CREDITS

1.1 Amounts and Terms of Commitments.

(a) The Revolving Credit.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties contained herein, each Revolving Lender (it being understood that Canadian Revolving Loans may be provided by an Affiliate of a Revolving Lender) severally and not jointly agrees to make (A) Loans denominated in Dollars to the U.S. Borrowers (each such Loan, including each Export-Related Loan, a “U.S. Revolving Loan”) and (B) Loans denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars to the Canadian Borrower (each such Loan, a “Canadian Revolving Loan” and together with the U.S. Revolving Loans, collectively, the “Revolving Loans”) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date through the Final Availability Date, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount set forth opposite such Lender’s name in Schedule 1.1(a) under the heading “Revolving Loan Commitments” (such amount as the same may be reduced or increased from time to time in accordance with this Agreement, being referred to herein as such Lender’s “Revolving Loan Commitment”); provided, however, that after giving effect to (A) any Borrowing of Revolving Loans, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans shall not exceed the Maximum Revolving Loan Balance (B) any Borrowing of U.S. Revolving Loans, subject to clause (ii) below, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding U.S. Revolving Loans shall not exceed the Maximum U.S. Revolving Loan Balance and (C) any Borrowing of Canadian Revolving Loans, subject to clause (ii) below, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Canadian Revolving Loans shall not exceed the Maximum Canadian Revolving Loan Balance; provided, further, that the Borrowers may not borrow during any Cash Dominion Grace Period unless Axiall has waived application of such Cash Dominion Grace Period. Subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, amounts borrowed under this subsection 1.1(a) may be repaid and reborrowed from time to time. Subject to satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Article II of this Agreement, on the Effective Date, any Prior ABL Credit Agreement Loans and letters of credit issued under the Prior ABL Credit Agreement shall, in accordance with Section 2.4 of this Agreement, be deemed to be Revolving Loans, Swing Loans and Letters of Credit, as applicable, under this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.4.

(ii) If the Borrower Representative requests that Revolving Lenders make, or permit to remain outstanding U.S. Revolving Loans in excess of the U.S. Borrowing Base (any such excess U.S. Revolving Loan is herein referred to as a “U.S. Overadvance”) or Canadian Revolving Loans in excess of the Canadian Borrowing Base (any such excess Canadian Revolving Loan is herein referred to as a “Canadian Overadvance” and each U.S. Overadvance and Canadian Overadvance herein referred to as an “Overadvance”), Administrative Agent may,

in its sole discretion, elect to make, or permit to remain outstanding such Overadvance; provided, however, that Administrative Agent may not cause Revolving Lenders to make, or permit to remain outstanding, (A) Revolving Loans the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of which exceed the Maximum Revolving Loan Balance or (B) Overadvances the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of which exceeds 7.5% of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. If an Overadvance is made, or permitted to remain outstanding, pursuant to the preceding sentence, then all Revolving Lenders shall be bound to make, or permit to remain outstanding, such Overadvance based upon their Commitment Percentage of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, regardless of whether the conditions to lending set forth in Section 2.2 have been met. Furthermore, Required Lenders may prospectively revoke Administrative Agent’s ability to make or permit Overadvances by written notice to Administrative Agent. All Overadvances shall constitute Base Rate Loans or Canadian Index Rate Loans, as applicable, and shall bear interest at the Base Rate or the Canadian Index Rate, as the case may be, plus the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans and the default rate under subsection 1.3(c). Within thirty (30) days of the date that any Overadvance is made or allowed to remain outstanding, such Overadvance shall be repaid.

(iii) Administrative Agent shall be authorized, in its discretion, (a) after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default or (b) at any time that any conditions in Section 2.2 are not satisfied, to make Revolving Loans (“Protective Advances”) in an aggregate principal amount outstanding not to exceed 7.5% of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment at any time, if Administrative Agent deems such Loans necessary or desirable to preserve or protect the Collateral, to enhance the collectability or repayment of the Obligations or to pay any other amounts chargeable to the Credit Parties under any Loan Documents, including costs, fees and expenses (including, without limitation, all amounts expended pursuant to Section 7.1 of the U.S. Revolving Guaranty and Security Agreement). Subject to the following paragraph, each Lender shall participate in Protective Advances on a pro rata basis. Required Lenders may prospectively revoke Administrative Agent’s ability to make such Protective Advances by written notice to Administrative Agent. All Protective Advances shall constitute Base Rate Loans and shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans and the default rate under subsection 1.3(c). Each Protective Advance shall be payable on demand.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (i) no Overadvance or Protective Advance may be made by Administrative Agent if such advance would cause the aggregate principal amount of all Overadvances and Protective Advances outstanding to exceed 7.5% of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment and (ii) to the extent any Protective Advance would cause the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of outstanding Revolving Loans to exceed the Maximum Revolving Loan Balance, each such Protective Advance shall be for Administrative Agent’s sole and separate account and not for the account of any Lender.

(b) Letters of Credit.

(i) Conditions. On the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, upon any request by the Borrower Representative, each applicable L/C Issuer agrees to issue Letters of Credit in accordance with such L/C Issuers’ usual and customary business practices and for the account of (A) the U.S. Borrowers or a Restricted Subsidiary that is a U.S. Subsidiary (provided that any such Letter of Credit issued for the benefit of any such Restricted

Subsidiary that is not a U.S. Borrower shall be issued naming the U.S. Borrowers as the account parties on any such Letter of Credit but such Letter of Credit may contain a statement that it is being issued for the benefit of such Restricted Subsidiary), Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars (each such Letter of Credit, a “U.S. Letter of Credit”) or (B) the Canadian Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary that is a Canadian Subsidiary (provided that any such Letter of Credit issued for the benefit of any such Restricted Subsidiary shall be issued naming the Canadian Borrower as the account party on any such Letter of Credit but such Letter of Credit may contain a statement that it is being issued for the benefit of such Restricted Subsidiary), Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars (each such Letter of Credit, a “Canadian Letter of Credit”) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date through the earlier of (x) the Revolving Termination Date and (y) seven (7) days prior to the date specified in clause (a) of the definition of Revolving Termination Date; provided, however, that no L/C Issuer shall Issue any Letter of Credit upon the occurrence of any of the following or, if after giving effect to such Issuance:

(1) the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of Revolving Loans would exceed the Maximum Revolving Loan Balance;

(2) with respect to the Issuance of U.S. Letters of Credit, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of U.S. Revolving Loans would exceed the Maximum U.S. Revolving Loan Balance;

(3) with respect to the Issuance of a Canadian Letter of Credit, (x) the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of Canadian Revolving Loans would exceed the Maximum Canadian Revolving Loan Balance or (y) the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the Letter of Credit Obligations for all Canadian Letters of Credit would exceed $60,000,000 (the “Canadian L/C Sublimit”);

(4) the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the Letter of Credit Obligations for all Letters of Credit would exceed $200,000,000 (the “L/C Sublimit”); provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) neither Xxxxx Fargo nor any of its Affiliates shall be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect thereto, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the Letter of Credit Obligations for all Letters of Credit issued by Xxxxx Fargo or any of its Affiliates would exceed $150,000,000 (or such other amount as may be agreed from time to time among the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent and Xxxxx Fargo) and (ii) neither any other L/C Issuer nor any of its Affiliates shall be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect thereto, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the Letter of Credit Obligations for all Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer or any of its Affiliates would exceed any amount as may be agreed from time to time among the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer;

(5) the expiration date of such Letter of Credit (i) is not a Business Day, (ii) is more than one year after the date of issuance thereof or (iii) is later than seven (7) days prior to the date specified in clause (a) of the definition of Revolving Termination Date; provided, however, that any Letter of Credit with a term not exceeding one year may provide for its renewal for additional periods not exceeding one year as long as (x) each of the Applicable Borrower and such L/C Issuer have the option to prevent such renewal before the expiration of such term or any such period and (y) neither such L/C Issuer nor any Borrower shall permit any such renewal to extend such expiration date beyond the date set forth in clause (iii)

above, unless Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer otherwise consents and such Letter of Credit is cash collateralized in a manner satisfactory to Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer; or

(6) (i) any fee due in connection with, and on or prior to, such Issuance has not been paid, (ii) as of the date of issuance, no order of any court, arbitrator or other Governmental Authority shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain money center banks generally from issuing letters of credit of the type and in the amount of the proposed Letter of Credit, and no law, rule or regulation applicable to money center banks generally and no request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over money center banks generally shall prohibit, or request that the applicable L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the issuance of such Letter of Credit, (iii) such Letter of Credit is requested to be issued in a form that is not acceptable to such L/C Issuer or (iv) such L/C Issuer shall not have received, each in form and substance reasonably acceptable to it and duly executed by the Applicable Borrower or the Borrower Representative on its behalf, the documents that such L/C Issuer generally uses in the Ordinary Course of Business for the Issuance of letters of credit of the type of such Letter of Credit (collectively, the “L/C Reimbursement Agreement”).

Furthermore, GE Capital as an L/C Issuer may elect to issue Letters of Credit only in its own name and may issue Letters of Credit only to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, and such Letters of Credit may not be accepted by certain beneficiaries such as insurance companies. For each Issuance, the applicable L/C Issuer may, but shall not be required to, determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.2 have been satisfied or waived in connection with the Issuance of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that no Letter of Credit shall be Issued during the period starting on the first Business Day after the receipt by such L/C Issuer of notice from Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders that any condition precedent contained in Section 2.2 is not satisfied and ending on the date all such conditions are satisfied or duly waived. If (i) any Lender is a Non-Funding Lender and (ii) the reallocation of that Non-Funding Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations to the other Revolving Lenders would reasonably be expected to cause the sum of Letter of Credit Obligations, Revolving Loans and amounts of participations in Swing Loans and Export-Related Loan Participations of any Lender to exceed its Revolving Loan Commitment, taking into account the amount of outstanding Revolving Loans and expected advances of Revolving Loans as determined by Administrative Agent, then no Letters of Credit may be issued or renewed unless the Non-Funding Lender has been replaced, the Letter of Credit Obligations of that Non-Funding Lender have been cash collateralized on terms reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer, or the Revolving Loan Commitments of the other Lenders have been increased by an amount sufficient to satisfy Administrative Agent that all future Letter of Credit Obligations will be covered by all Revolving Lenders who are not Non-Funding Lenders.

(ii) Requests for Letters of Credit. The Borrower Representative requesting a Letter of Credit on behalf of a Borrower shall give Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer at least two (2) Business Days’ (or four (4) Business Days’ with respect to each Canadian Letter of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars) prior written notice of the Borrower Representative’s request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit on such Borrower’s behalf together with an application, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent, for the issuance of the Letter of Credit and such other Letter of Credit Documents as may be reasonably required by Administrative Agent or the applicable L/C

Issuer. Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall (A) specify the original face amount of the Letter of Credit requested (or identify the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended), (B) with respect to Canadian Letters of Credit, whether such Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars (which shall be Dollars if such notice does not so specify), (C) the effective date (which date shall be a Business Day and in no event shall be a date less than ten (10) days prior to the date specified in clause (a) of the definition of Revolving Termination Date) of issuance of such requested Letter of Credit (or such amendment, renewal or extension), (D) whether such Letter of Credit may be drawn in a single or in partial draws, (E) the date on which such requested Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall be a Business Day and in no event shall be a date later than seven (7) days prior to the date specified in clause (a) of the definition of Revolving Termination Date), (F) the purpose for which such Letter of Credit is to be issued, (G) the name and address of the beneficiary of the requested Letter of Credit, (H) such other information as shall be necessary to enable the applicable L/C Issuer to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit and (I) the proposed terms of the Letter of Credit. In no event shall a Letter of Credit be issued, amended, renewed or extended unless the forms and terms of the proposed Letter of Credit (as amended, renewed or extended, as the case may be) are reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer.

(iii) Notice of Issuance. The Borrower Representative shall give the relevant L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent a notice of any requested Issuance of any Letter of Credit, which shall be effective only if received by such L/C Issuer and Administrative Agent not later than at least two (2) Business Days’ (or four (4) Business Days’ with respect to each Canadian Letter of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars) prior to the date of such requested Issuance. Such notice shall be made in a writing or Electronic Transmission substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.1(c) duly completed or in a writing in any other form acceptable to such L/C Issuer (an “L/C Request”).

(iv) Reporting Obligations of L/C Issuers. Each L/C Issuer agrees to provide Administrative Agent, in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, each of the following on the following dates: (A) (i) on or prior to any Issuance of any Letter of Credit by such L/C Issuer, (ii) immediately after any drawing under any such Letter of Credit or (iii) immediately after any payment (or failure to pay when due) by the Borrowers of any related L/C Reimbursement Obligation, notice thereof, which shall contain a detailed description of such Issuance, drawing or payment, and Administrative Agent shall provide copies of such notices to each Revolving Lender reasonably promptly after receipt thereof; (B) upon the request of Administrative Agent (or any Revolving Lender through Administrative Agent), copies of any Letter of Credit Issued by such L/C Issuer and any related L/C Reimbursement Agreement and such other documents and information as may reasonably be requested by Administrative Agent; and (C) on the first Business Day of each calendar week, a schedule of the Letters of Credit Issued by such L/C Issuer, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, setting forth the Letter of Credit Obligations for such Letters of Credit outstanding on the last Business Day of the previous calendar week.

(v) Acquisition of Participations. Upon any Issuance of a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement resulting in any increase in the Letter of Credit Obligations, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have acquired, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Letter of Credit and the related Letter of Credit Obligations in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of such Letter of Credit Obligations. Each Lender shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary

obligor and not as surety, and be obligated to pay to the applicable L/C Issuer therefor and discharge when due, its pro rata share of all of such obligations arising under such Letter of Credit. Without limiting the scope and nature of each Lender’s participation in any Letter of Credit, to the extent that the applicable L/C Issuer has not been reimbursed or otherwise paid as required hereunder or under any such Letter of Credit, each such Lender shall pay to such L/C Issuer its pro rata share of such unreimbursed drawing or other amounts then due to such L/C Issuer in connection therewith. If such amount is not made available by a Lender when due, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount was due until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent at the interest rate then payable by any Borrower in respect of Loans that are Base Rate Loans. All payments made by the Lenders pursuant to this Section 1.1(b)(v) shall be funded in Dollars based on the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the applicable obligation.

(vi) Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrowers. The U.S. Borrowers agree to pay to the L/C Issuer of any U.S. Letter of Credit each L/C Reimbursement Obligation owing with respect to such U.S. Letter of Credit and the Canadian Borrower agrees to pay to the L/C Issuer of any Canadian Letter of Credit, in the applicable currency, each L/C Reimbursement Obligation owing with respect to such Canadian Letter of Credit and, each Applicable Borrower agrees to pay all other charges and fees payable to such L/C Issuer in connection with any Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower immediately when due irrespective of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which such Borrower may have at any time against such L/C Issuer or any other Person, in each case, no later than the first Business Day after the Applicable Borrower or the Borrower Representative receives notice from such L/C Issuer that payment has been made under such Letter of Credit or that such L/C Reimbursement Obligation is otherwise due (the “L/C Reimbursement Date”) with interest thereon computed as set forth in clause (A) below. In the event that any L/C Issuer incurs any L/C Reimbursement Obligation which is not repaid by the Applicable Borrower as provided in this clause (vi) (or any such payment by the Applicable Borrower is rescinded or set aside for any reason), such L/C Issuer shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of such failure (and, upon receipt of such notice, Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender) and, irrespective of whether such notice is given, such L/C Reimbursement Obligation shall be payable on demand by the Applicable Borrower with interest thereon computed (A) from the date on which such L/C Reimbursement Obligation arose to the L/C Reimbursement Date, at the interest rate applicable during such period to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans or Canadian Index Rate Loans, as applicable and (B) thereafter until payment in full, at the interest rate applicable during such period to past due Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans or Canadian Index Rate Loans, as applicable.

(vii) Reimbursement Obligations of the Revolving Lenders. If no Revolving Lender is a Non-Funding Lender (or if the only Non-Funding Lender is the L/C Issuer that issued such Letter of Credit), upon receipt of the notice described in clause (vi) above from Administrative Agent, each Revolving Lender shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer its Commitment Percentage of such Letter of Credit Obligations. If any Revolving Lender (other than the Revolving Lender that is the L/C Issuer that issued such Letter of Credit) is a Non-Funding Lender, that Non-Funding Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations shall be reallocated to and assumed by the other Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance with their Commitment Percentages of the Revolving Loan (calculated as if the Non-Funding Lender’s Commitment Percentage was reduced to zero and each other Revolving Lender’s Commitment

Percentage had been increased proportionately). If any Revolving Lender (other than the Revolving Lender that is the L/C Issuer that issued such Letter of Credit) is a Non-Funding Lender, upon receipt of the notice described in clause (vi) above from Administrative Agent, each Revolving Lender that is not a Non-Funding Lender shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer its pro-rata share (increased as described above) of the Letter of Credit Obligations that from time to time remain outstanding (the aggregate amount required to be funded pursuant to this sentence by such Revolving Lenders that are not Non-Funding Lenders in excess of the amount such Revolving Lenders would have otherwise been required to fund in accordance with the first sentence of this clause (vii) in the event there were no Non-Funding Lenders is referred to as the “Aggregate Excess Funding Amount”); provided, that no Revolving Lender shall be required to fund any amount which would result in the sum of its outstanding Revolving Loans, outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations, amounts of its participations in Swing Loans and Export-Related Loan Participations and its pro rata share of unparticipated amounts in Swing Loans and Export-Related Loans to exceed its Revolving Loan Commitment. By making such payment (other than during the continuation of an Event of Default under subsection 7.1(f) or 7.1(g)), such Lender shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Applicable Borrower, which, upon receipt thereof by such L/C Issuer, such Borrower shall be deemed to have used in whole to repay such L/C Reimbursement Obligation. Any such payment that is not deemed a Revolving Loan shall be deemed a funding by such Lender of its participation in the applicable Letter of Credit and the Letter of Credit Obligation in respect of the related L/C Reimbursement Obligations. Such participation shall not otherwise be required to be funded. Following receipt by any L/C Issuer of any payment from any Lender pursuant to this clause (vii) with respect to any portion of any L/C Reimbursement Obligation, such L/C Issuer shall promptly pay over to such Lender all duplicate payments received from Persons other than Lenders making payment on behalf of a Credit Party by such L/C Issuer with respect to such portion of such L/C Reimbursement Obligation.

(viii) Indemnification; Assumption of Risk. The Credit Parties shall indemnify and hold Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses which Administrative Agent or any Lender may suffer or incur in connection with any Letter of Credit and any documents, drafts or acceptances relating thereto, including any losses (including currency fluctuations), claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses due to any action taken by the applicable L/C Issuer or correspondent with respect to any Letter of Credit, except to the extent such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent or any Lender as determined pursuant to a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Credit Party assumes all risks with respect to the acts or omissions of the drawer under or beneficiary of any Letter of Credit. None of Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be responsible for paying any foreign, federal, state or local taxes, duties or levies relating to any goods subject to any Letter of Credit or any documents, drafts or acceptances thereunder. Each Credit Party hereby releases and holds Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless from and against any acts, waivers, errors, delays or omissions with respect to or relating to any Letter of Credit, except for the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent or any Lender as determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. The provisions of this clause (viii) shall survive the payment of Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(ix) Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Borrowers and the Revolving Lenders pursuant to clauses (iv), (v) and (vi) above shall be absolute, unconditional

and irrevocable and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement irrespective of (A) (i) the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision in any Letter of Credit, any document transferring or purporting to transfer a Letter of Credit, any Loan Document (including the sufficiency of any such instrument), or any modification to any provision of any of the foregoing, (ii) any document presented under a Letter of Credit being forged, fraudulent, invalid, insufficient or inaccurate in any respect or failing to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (iii) any loss or delay, including in the transmission of any document, (B) the existence of any setoff, claim, abatement, recoupment, defense or other right that any Person (including any Credit Party) may have against the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with any Loan Document or any other Contractual Obligation or transaction, or the existence of any other withholding, abatement or reduction, (C) in the case of the obligations of any Revolving Lender, (i) the failure of any condition precedent set forth in Section 2.2 to be satisfied (each of which conditions precedent the Revolving Lenders hereby irrevocably waive) or (ii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Credit Party and (D) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this clause (vii), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any obligation of any Borrower or any Revolving Lender hereunder. No provision hereof shall be deemed to waive or limit any Borrower’s right to seek repayment of any payment of any L/C Reimbursement Obligations from the L/C Issuer under the terms of the applicable L/C Reimbursement Agreement or applicable law.

(i) Availability. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties contained herein, the Swingline Lender may, in its sole discretion, make (x) Loans denominated in Dollars available to the U.S. Borrowers (each a “U.S. Swing Loan”) under the Revolving Loan Commitments from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date through the Final Availability Date in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed the U.S. Swingline Commitment and (y) Loans denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars available to the Canadian Borrower (each a “Canadian Swing Loan” and together with the U.S. Swing Loans, collectively the “Swing Loans”) under the Revolving Loan Commitments from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date through the Final Availability Date, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed the Canadian Swingline Commitment; provided, however, that the Swingline Lender may not make any Swing Loan (A) to the extent that after giving effect to such Swing Loan, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans would exceed the Maximum Revolving Loan Balance, (B) with respect to any U.S. Swing Loan, to the extent that after giving effect to such U.S. Swing Loan, the aggregate principal amount of all U.S. Revolving Loans would exceed the Maximum U.S. Revolving Loan Balance, (C) with respect to any Canadian Swing Loan, to the extent that after giving effect to such Canadian Swing Loan, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of all Canadian Revolving Loans would exceed the Maximum Canadian Revolving Loan Balance and (D) during the period commencing on the first Business Day after it receives notice from Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders that one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Section 2.2 are not satisfied and ending when such conditions are satisfied or duly waived. In connection with the making of any Swing Loan, the Swingline Lender may but shall not be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.2 have been satisfied or

waived. Each Swing Loan denominated in Dollars shall be a Base Rate Loan, each Swing Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars shall be a Canadian Index Rate Loan, and in each case, must be repaid as provided herein, but in any event must be repaid in full on the Revolving Termination Date. Within the limits set forth in the first sentence of this clause (i), amounts of Swing Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this clause (i).

(ii) Borrowing Procedures. In order to request a Swing Loan, the Borrower Representative shall give to Administrative Agent a notice to be received not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day of the proposed Borrowing, which shall be made in a writing or in an Electronic Transmission substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.1(d) or in a writing in any other form acceptable to Administrative Agent duly completed (a “Swingline Request”). In addition, if any Notice of Borrowing of Revolving Loans requests a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or Canadian Index Rate Loans, the Swingline Lender may, notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, make a Swing Loan denominated in the applicable currency to the Applicable Borrower in an aggregate amount not to exceed such proposed Borrowing, and the aggregate amount of the corresponding proposed Borrowing shall be reduced accordingly by the principal amount of such Swing Loan. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Swingline Lender of the details of the requested Swing Loan. Upon receipt of such notice and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Swingline Lender may make a Swing Loan available to the Applicable Borrower by making the proceeds thereof available to Administrative Agent and, in turn, Administrative Agent shall make such proceeds available to the Applicable Borrower on the date set forth in the relevant Swingline Request or Notice of Borrowing.

(iii) Refinancing Swing Loans. If no Revolving Lender is a Non-Funding Lender, the Swingline Lender may at any time (and shall, no less frequently than once each week) forward a demand to Administrative Agent (which Administrative Agent shall, upon receipt, forward to each Revolving Lender) that each Revolving Lender pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the outstanding Swing Loans. If any Revolving Lender is a Non-Funding Lender, that Non-Funding Lender’s reimbursement obligations with respect to the Swing Loans shall be reallocated to and assumed by the other Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance with their Commitment Percentages of the Revolving Loans (calculated as if the Non-Funding Lender’s Commitment Percentage was reduced to zero and each other Revolving Lender’s Commitment Percentage had been increased proportionately). If any Revolving Lender is a Non-Funding Lender, upon receipt of the demand described above, each Revolving Lender that is not a Non-Funding Lender will be obligated to pay to Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender its pro rata share of the outstanding Swing Loans (increased as described above); provided, that no Revolving Lender shall be required to fund any amount which would result in the sum of its outstanding Revolving Loans, outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations, amounts of its participations in Swing Loans and its pro rata share of unparticipated amounts in Swing Loans to exceed its Revolving Loan Commitment. Each Revolving Lender shall pay the amount owing by it to Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender on the Business Day following receipt of the notice or demand therefor. Payments received by Administrative Agent after 1:00 p.m. (New York time) may, in Administrative Agent’s discretion, be deemed to be received on the next Business Day. Upon receipt by Administrative Agent of such payment (other than during the continuation of any Event of Default under subsection 7.1(f) or 7.1(g)), such Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Applicable Borrower, which, upon receipt of such payment by the Swingline Lender from Administrative Agent, such Borrower shall be deemed to have used in whole to refinance such Swing Loan. In

addition, regardless of whether any such demand is made, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under subsection 7.1(f) or 7.1(g), each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have acquired, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in each Swing Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such Swing Loan. If any payment made by any Revolving Lender as a result of any such demand is not deemed a Revolving Loan, such payment shall be deemed a funding by such Lender of such participation. Such participation shall not be otherwise required to be funded. Upon receipt by the Swingline Lender of any payment from any Revolving Lender pursuant to this clause (iii) with respect to any portion of any Swing Loan, the Swingline Lender shall promptly pay over to such Revolving Lender all payments of principal (to the extent received after such payment by such Lender) and interest (to the extent accrued with respect to periods after such payment) on account of such Swing Loan received by the Swingline Lender with respect to such portion.

(iv) Obligation to Fund Absolute. Each Revolving Lender’s obligations pursuant to clause (iii) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including (A) the existence of any setoff, claim, abatement, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender, any Affiliate thereof or any other Person may have against the Swingline Lender, Administrative Agent, any other Lender or L/C Issuer or any other Person, (B) the failure of any condition precedent set forth in Section 2.2 to be satisfied or the failure of the Borrower Representative to deliver a Notice of Borrowing (each of which requirements the Revolving Lenders hereby irrevocably waive) and (C) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Credit Party.

(d) Export-Related Loans.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Export-Related Loan Lender agrees to make available to the U.S. Borrowers, on a joint and several basis, from time to time until the Export-Related Commitment Termination Date, export-related Loans (each, an “Export-Related Loan”) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Until the Export-Related Commitment Termination Date, the U.S. Borrowers may from time to time borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section 1.1(d)(i); provided, that (A) the amount of any Export-Related Loan to be made at any time shall not exceed Export-Related Borrowing Availability at such time and (B) the aggregate principal amount of Export-Related Loans outstanding shall not exceed at any time the Maximum U.S. Revolving Loan Balance less the outstanding balances of U.S. Revolving Loans, U.S. Swing Loans and U.S. Letter of Credit Obligations at such time. Export-Related Borrowing Availability may be further reduced by Reserves imposed by the Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion.

(ii) The entire unpaid balance of the Export-Related Loan (and all accrued and unpaid fees and expenses owing with respect thereto) shall be immediately due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Export-Related Commitment Termination Date if not sooner paid in full.

(iii) Immediately upon the making of any Export-Related Loan by the Export-Related Loan Lender, each Revolving Lender (including the Export-Related Loan Lender) shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from the Export-Related Loan Lender an undivided interest and participation in such Export-Related Loan in an amount equal to its pro rata share of the principal amount of such Export-Related Loan (each an

“Export-Related Loan Participation” and collectively the “Export-Related Loan Participations”). Each Revolving Lender shall fund its participation in such Export-Related Loan in the same manner as provided in the Agreement with respect to Revolving Credit Loans. Export-Related Loan Lender, at any time and from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion, but not less frequently than weekly, shall request each Revolving Lender (including the Export-Related Loan Lender) to fund its participation in outstanding Export-Related Loans which have not been previously funded in an amount equal to its pro rata share of the principal amount of such Export-Related Loans (a “Funded Export-Related Loan Participation”). Each Revolving Lender shall disburse directly to the Administrative Agent such amount prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time) in immediately available funds on the Business Day next succeeding the date that notice is given, and the Administrative Agent shall immediately pay such amount to the Export-Related Loan Lender.

(iv) Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to purchase participation interests in accordance with Section 1.1(d)(iii) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Revolving Lender may have against Export-Related Loan Lender, the U.S. Borrowers or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of any Default or Event of Default; (C) any inability of the U.S. Borrowers to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in this Agreement at any time or (D) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If any Revolving Lender does not make available to the Administrative Agent the amount required pursuant to Section 1.1(d)(iii), the Export-Related Loan Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Lender, together with interest thereon for each day from the date of non-payment until such amount is paid in full at the Federal Funds Rate for the first two Business Days and at the Base Rate thereafter.

(v) Any principal or interest received by the Administrative Agent in respect of any Export-Related Loan shall be promptly paid by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders which have a Funded Export-Related Loan Participation in such Export-Related Loan in an amount equal to its pro rata share of such principal or interest (and to the Export-Related Loan Lender with respect to any such Export-Related Loan as to which a Funded Export-Related Loan Participation does not exist).

(vi) Extension of Export-Related Maturity Date.

(A) Requests for Extension. The U.S. Borrowers may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Lenders) not later than sixty (60) days prior to the (1) one, two or three-year anniversary of the Effective Date or (2) Export-Related Maturity Date then in effect hereunder (the “Existing Export-Related Maturity Date”), in each case, request that the Export-Related Loan Lender extend the Export-Related Maturity Date for an additional 364 days; provided that in no event shall the Export-Related Maturity Date be extended beyond the Commitment Termination Date.

(B) Export-Related Loan Lender’s Election to Extend. The Export-Related Loan Lender, acting in its sole and individual discretion, by notice to the Administrative Agent given not later than the date the (“Notice Date”) that is twenty (20) days prior to the Existing Export-Related Maturity Date, shall advise the Administrative Agent

whether or not the Export-Related Loan Lender agrees to such extension and notify the Administrative Agent of such fact promptly after such determination (but in any event not later than the Notice Date).

(C) Notification by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall notify the U.S. Borrowers and the other Lenders of the Export-Related Loan Lender’s determination under this Section 1.1(d)(vi) no later than the date fifteen (15) days prior to the Existing Export-Related Maturity Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the next preceding Business Day). The Export-Related Loan Lender’s determination to extend the Existing Export-Related Maturity Date shall be binding upon all Revolving Lenders and, as a consequence thereof, each Revolving Lender shall automatically be deemed to have agreed to continue to purchase Export-Related Loan Participations and to fund its pro rata share of participation obligations in the Export-Related Loans until the Export-Related Commitment Termination Date, all in accordance with this the terms of this Agreement.

1.2 Notes.

(a) The Revolving Loans made by each Revolving Lender shall be evidenced by this Agreement and, if requested by such Lender, a Revolving Note made by each Borrower payable to such Lender in an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment.

(b) Swing Loans made by the Swingline Lender shall be evidenced by this Agreement and, if requested by such Lender, a Swingline Note made by each Borrower payable to the Swingline Lender in an amount equal to the Swingline Commitment.

(c) Export-Related Loans made by the Export-Related Loan Lender shall be evidenced by this Agreement and, if requested by such Export-Related Loan Lender, an Export-Related Loan Note made by the U.S. Borrowers payable to the Export-Related Loan Lender in an amount equal to the Export-Related Loan Commitment.

1.3 Interest.

(a) Subject to subsections 1.3(c) and 1.3(d), each Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR, the Base Rate or the Canadian Index Rate, as the case may be, plus the Applicable Margin; provided, that (i) Revolving Loans denominated in Dollars shall be either Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Rate Loans, (ii) Revolving Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars shall be either LIBOR Rate Loans or Canadian Index Rate Loans, (iii) Swing Loans denominated in Dollars shall be Base Rate Loans and (iv) Swing Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars shall be Canadian Index Rate Loans. Administrative Agent will with reasonable promptness notify the Borrower Representative and the Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each change to the Applicable Margin as set forth in the definition thereof, provided, that any failure to do so shall not relieve the Borrowers of any liability hereunder or provide the basis for any claim against Administrative Agent. Each determination of an interest rate by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive and binding on each Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. All computations of fees and interest payable under this Agreement shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed, other than interest in respect of Base Rate Loans

and Canadian Index Rate Loans, which shall be made on the basis of a 365/366-day year. Interest and fees shall accrue during each period during which interest or such fees are computed from the first day thereof to the last day thereof. For purposes of disclosure pursuant to the Interest Act (Canada), in respect of the Canadian Obligations only, the annual rates of interest or fees to which the rates of interest or fees provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and stated herein or therein, as applicable, to be computed on the basis of a 360 day year or any other period of time less than a calendar year) are equivalent are the rates so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the applicable calendar year and divided by 360 or such other period of time, respectively.

(b) Interest on each Loan shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. Interest shall also be paid on the date of any payment or prepayment of Loans in full.

(c) At the election of the Required Lenders by written notice to the Borrowers while any Event of Default is continuing (or automatically while any Event of Default under subsection 7.1(a), 7.1(f) or 7.1(g) exists), the Borrowers shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the Loans under the Loan Documents from and after the date of occurrence and during the continuance of such Event of Default, at a rate per annum which is determined by adding two percent (2.0%) per annum to the Applicable Margin then in effect for such Loans (plus the LIBOR, Base Rate or Canadian Index Rate, as the case may be) subject to the Interest Act (Canada), in the case of Canadian Obligations. All such interest shall be payable on demand of Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders.

(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required, for any period for which interest is computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting for or receiving such payment by the respective Lender would be contrary to the provisions of any law applicable to such Lender limiting the highest rate of interest which may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by such Lender, and in such event the Borrowers shall pay such Lender interest at the highest rate permitted by applicable law (“Maximum Lawful Rate”); provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Borrowers shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders, is equal to the total interest that would have been received had the interest payable hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) the interest rate payable since the Effective Date as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

(e) For greater certainty but without limitation to Section 1.3(d) and in respect of Canadian Obligations or Obligations enforced in Canada only, if any provision of this Agreement or of any of the other Loan Documents would obligate a Borrower or any other Credit Party to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by such Lender of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)) then, notwithstanding such provisions, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in a receipt by such Lender of interest at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, as follows: (1) firstly, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid to such Lender under this Agreement, and (2) thereafter, by

reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to such Lender which would constitute “interest” for purposes of Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if a Lender shall have received an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by that section of the Criminal Code (Canada), such Borrower shall be entitled to obtain reimbursement from such Lender in an amount equal to such excess and, pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by such Lender to such Borrower. Any amount or rate of interest referred to in this Section 1.3(e) shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles as an effective annual rate of interest over the term that the applicable Loan remains outstanding on the assumption that any charges, fees or expenses that fall within the meaning of “interest” (as defined in the Criminal Code (Canada)) shall, if they relate to a specific period of time, be pro-rated over that period of time and otherwise be pro-rated over the period from the Effective Date to the Revolving Termination Date and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive for the purposes of such determination.

1.4 Loan Accounts.

(a) Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, shall record on its books and records the amount of each Loan made, the Borrower primarily liable therefor, the interest rate applicable, all payments of principal and interest thereon and the principal balance thereof from time to time outstanding. Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower Representative on a monthly basis a loan statement setting forth such record for the immediately preceding calendar month. Such record shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive evidence of the amount of the Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so, or any failure to deliver such loan statement shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder (and under any Note) to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans or provide the basis for any claim against Administrative Agent.

(b) Administrative Agent, acting as a non-fiduciary Administrative Agent of the Borrowers solely for tax purposes and solely with respect to the actions described in this subsection 1.4(b), shall establish and maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.2 (or at such other address as Administrative Agent may notify the Borrower Representative) (A) a record of ownership (the “Register”) in which Administrative Agent agrees to register by book entry the interests (including any rights to receive payment hereunder) of Administrative Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer in the Revolving Loans, Swing Loans, L/C Reimbursement Obligations, and Letter of Credit Obligations, each of their obligations under this Agreement to participate in each Loan, Letter of Credit, Letter of Credit Obligations, and L/C Reimbursement Obligations, and any assignment of any such interest, obligation or right and (B) accounts in the Register in accordance with its usual practice in which it shall record (1) the names and addresses of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers (and each change thereto pursuant to Sections 9.9 and 9.22), (2) the Commitments of each Lender, (3) the amount of each Loan and each funding of any participation described in clause (A) above, and for LIBOR Rate Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (4) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or paid, (5) the amount of the L/C Reimbursement Obligations due and payable or paid in respect of Letters of Credit and (6) any other payment received by Administrative Agent from a Borrower and its application to the Obligations.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Loans (including any Notes evidencing such Loans and, in the case of Revolving Loans, the corresponding obligations to participate in Letter of Credit Obligations, Swing Loans and Export-Related Loans) and the L/C Reimbursement Obligations are registered obligations, the right, title and interest of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers and their assignees in and to such Loans or L/C Reimbursement Obligations, as the case may be, shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the Register and no assignment thereof shall be effective until recorded therein. This Section 1.4 and Section 9.9 shall be construed so that the Loans and L/C Reimbursement Obligations are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code.

(d) The Credit Parties, Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement. Information contained in the Register with respect to any Lender or any L/C Issuer shall be available for access by the Borrowers, the Borrower Representative, Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer during normal business hours and from time to time upon at least one Business Day’s prior notice. No Lender or L/C Issuer shall, in such capacity, have access to or be otherwise permitted to review any information in the Register other than information with respect to such Lender or L/C Issuer unless otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent.

1.5 Procedure for Revolving Credit Borrowing.

(a) Each Borrowing of a Revolving Loan shall be made upon the Borrower Representative’s irrevocable (subject to Section 10.5) written notice delivered to Administrative Agent substantially in the form of a Notice of Borrowing or in a writing in any other form acceptable to Administrative Agent, which notice must be received by Administrative Agent prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York time) (i) on the date which is one (1) Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing date of each Base Rate Loan or Canadian Index Rate Loan and (ii) on the day which is three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing date in the case of any LIBOR Rate Loan. Such Notice of Borrowing shall specify:

(i) whether the Borrowing is to be comprised of U.S. Revolving Loans or Canadian Revolving Loans and, in the case of Canadian Revolving Loans, whether such Loans are to be denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars;

(ii) whether such Loan is an Export-Related Loan;

(iii) the amount of the Borrowing (which shall be in an aggregate minimum principal amount of $100,000, or C$100,000, as applicable);

(iv) the requested Borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day;

(v) whether the Borrowing is to be comprised of LIBOR Rate Loans, Base Rate Loans or Canadian Index Rate Loans; and

(vi) if the Borrowing is to be LIBOR Rate Loans, the Interest Period applicable to such Loans.

(b) Upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing, Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Revolving Lender of such Notice of Borrowing and of the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Borrowing.

(c) Unless Administrative Agent is otherwise directed in writing by the Borrower Representative, the proceeds of each requested Borrowing after the Effective Date will be made available to the Applicable Borrower by Administrative Agent by wire transfer of such amount to the Applicable Borrower pursuant to the wire transfer instructions specified on the signature page hereto.

1.6 Conversion and Continuation Elections.

(a) The Applicable Borrower shall have the option to (i) request that any Revolving Loan be made as a LIBOR Rate Loan, (ii) convert at any time all or any part of outstanding (x) Base Rate Loans (other than U.S. Swing Loans) to LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in Dollars or (y) Canadian Index Rate Loans (other than Canadian Swing Loans) to LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, (iii) convert any (x) LIBOR Rate Loan denominated in Dollars to a Base Rate Loan or (y) LIBOR Rate Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars to a Canadian Index Rate Loan, subject to Section 10.4 if such conversion is made prior to the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (iv) continue all or any portion of any Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan upon the expiration of the applicable Interest Period. Any Loan or group of Loans having the same proposed Interest Period to be made or continued as, or converted into, a LIBOR Rate Loan must be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000. Any such election must be made by Borrower Representative by 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the 3rd Business Day prior to (1) the date of any proposed Revolving Loan which is to bear interest at LIBOR, (2) the end of each Interest Period with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loans to be continued as such, or (3) the date on which the Applicable Borrower wishes to convert any Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan for an Interest Period designated by Borrower Representative in such election. If no election is received with respect to a LIBOR Rate Loan by 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the 3rd Business Day prior to the end of the Interest Period with respect thereto, that LIBOR Rate Loan shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan or Canadian Index Rate Loan, as applicable, at the end of its Interest Period. Borrower Representative must make such election by notice to Administrative Agent in writing, including by Electronic Transmission. In the case of any conversion or continuation, such election must be made pursuant to a written notice (a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.6 or in a writing in any other form acceptable to Administrative Agent. No Loan shall be made, converted into or continued as a LIBOR Rate Loan, if the conditions to Loans and Letters of Credit in Section 2.2 are not met at the time of such proposed conversion or continuation.

(b) Upon receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof. In addition, Administrative Agent will, with reasonable promptness, notify the Borrower Representative and the Lenders of each determination of LIBOR; provided, that any failure to do so shall not relieve any Borrower of any liability hereunder or provide the basis for any claim against Administrative Agent. All conversions and continuations shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans held by each Lender with respect to which the notice was given.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, after giving effect to any Borrowing, or to any continuation or conversion of any Loans, there shall not be more than seven (7) different Interest Periods in effect.

1.7 Optional Prepayments.

(a) Each Borrower may, at any time upon at least two (2) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as is acceptable to Administrative Agent) prior written notice by Borrower Representative to Administrative Agent, prepay its Revolving Loans (without a corresponding reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment) in whole or in part in an amount greater than or equal to $100,000 or C$100,000, as applicable, in each instance, without penalty or premium except as provided in Section 10.4. Optional partial prepayments of the Revolving Loans shall be applied in the manner set forth in subsection 1.8(d). Optional partial prepayments of the Revolving Loans in amounts less than $100,000 or C$100,000, as applicable, shall not be permitted.

(b) The notice of any prepayment shall not thereafter be revocable by the Applicable Borrower or Borrower Representative and Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof and of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such prepayment. The payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Together with each prepayment under this Section 1.7, the Applicable Borrower shall pay any amounts required pursuant to Section 10.4.

1.8 Mandatory Prepayments of Loans.

(a) Revolving Termination Date. Each Borrower shall repay to the Lenders in full on the date specified in clause (a) of the definition of “Revolving Termination Date” the aggregate principal amount of its Revolving Loans and Swing Loans outstanding on the Revolving Termination Date. The U.S. Borrowers shall repay to the Export-Related Lender in full the aggregate outstanding principal amount of its Export-Related Loans outstanding on the Export-Related Commitment Termination Date.

(b) If at any time the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the then outstanding principal balance of Revolving Loans exceeds the Maximum Revolving Loan Balance, then the Applicable Borrower shall immediately prepay outstanding Revolving Loans and then cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess in accordance with Section 1.10(c) and in a manner satisfactory to the L/C Issuers. Subject to clause 1.1(a)(ii), if at any time the then outstanding principal balance of U.S. Revolving Loans exceeds the Maximum U.S. Revolving Loan Balance, then the U.S. Borrowers shall immediately prepay outstanding U.S. Revolving Loans and then cash collateralize outstanding U.S. Letters of Credit in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess in accordance with Section 1.10(c) and in a manner satisfactory to the L/C Issuers. Subject to clause 1.1(a)(ii), if at any time the then outstanding principal balance of Canadian Revolving Loans exceeds the Maximum Canadian Revolving Loan Balance, then the Canadian Borrower shall immediately prepay outstanding Canadian Revolving Loans and then cash collateralize outstanding Canadian Letters of Credit in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess in accordance with Section 1.10(c) and in a manner satisfactory to the L/C Issuers. Subject to clause 1.1(a)(ii), if at any time the then outstanding principal balance of Export-Related Loans exceeds Export-Related Borrowing Availability, the

U.S. Borrowers shall immediately prepay Export-Related Loans in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

(c) Asset Dispositions. If a Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of a Credit Party shall, during a Cash Dominion Period, or, if after giving effect to any transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) below, a Cash Dominion Period (without giving effect to any Cash Dominion Grace Period) is triggered:

(i) make a Disposition of ABL Priority Collateral; or

(ii) suffer an Event of Loss with respect to ABL Priority Collateral;

then (A) the Borrower Representative shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of such Disposition or Event of Loss (including the amount of the estimated Net Proceeds to be received by a Credit Party and/or such Restricted Subsidiary in respect thereof) and (B) promptly upon receipt by a Borrower and/or such Restricted Subsidiary of the Net Proceeds of such Disposition or Event of Loss, the Credit Parties shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, an amount equal to such Net Proceeds to Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders as a prepayment of the Loans, which prepayment shall be applied in accordance with subsection 1.8(d). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any such prepayment pursuant to clause (ii) above shall not be required to the extent a Credit Party or such Restricted Subsidiary uses an amount equal to the Net Proceeds of such Event of Loss to repair or replace such ABL Priority Collateral with other assets constituting ABL Priority Collateral, within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such Event of Loss.

(d) Application of Prepayments. Any prepayments pursuant to Section 1.7 or subsection 1.8(b) or 1.8(c) (i) (other than prepayments made through the Export-Related Concentration Account or an Export-Related Blocked Account and other prepayments arising from proceeds of Export-Related Accounts) of U.S. Revolving Loans shall be applied first to prepay outstanding U.S. Swing Loans and second to prepay outstanding U.S. Revolving Loans (other than Export-Related Loans) without a permanent reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment and third, to prepay outstanding Export-Related Loans without a permanent reduction of the Export-Related Commitment and (ii) of Canadian Revolving Loans shall be applied first to prepay outstanding Canadian Swing Loans and second to prepay outstanding Canadian Revolving Loans without a permanent reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment or the Canadian Revolving Loan Sublimit; provided, that any prepayments pursuant to subsection 1.8(c) in respect of a Disposition or Event of Loss relating to ABL Priority Collateral owned by (x) Axiall or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than any Canadian Subsidiary) shall be applied solely to U.S. Obligations and (y) the Canadian Borrower or any of its Canadian Subsidiaries shall be applied solely to Canadian Obligations. To the extent permitted by the foregoing sentence, amounts prepaid shall be applied first to any Base Rate Loans or Canadian Index Rate Loans, as applicable, then outstanding and then to outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans with the shortest Interest Periods remaining. Together with each prepayment under this Section 1.8, the Applicable Borrower shall pay any amounts required pursuant to Section 10.4. In addition, any prepayments made by the Applicable Borrower pursuant to Section 1.8(c) made through the Export-Related Concentration Account or an Export-Related Blocked Account and other prepayments identified as arising from Net Proceeds of a Disposition or Event of Loss in respect of Export-Related Accounts shall be applied as follows: first to prepay outstanding Export-Related Loans without a permanent reduction of the Export-Related

Commitment, second to prepay outstanding U.S. Swing Loans and third to prepay outstanding U.S. Revolving Loans (other than Export-Related Loans) without a permanent reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment.

(e) No Implied Consent. Provisions contained in this Section 1.8 for the application of proceeds of certain transactions shall not be deemed to constitute consent of the Lenders to transactions that are not otherwise permitted by the terms hereof or the other Loan Documents.

1.9 Fees.

(a) Fee Letter. The Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, for Administrative Agent’s own account, fees in the amounts and at the times set forth in the Fee Letter and Engagement Letter.

(b) Unused Commitment Fee. The Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of each Revolving Lender, a commitment fee at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Unused Commitment Fee in effect from time to time on the unused portion of such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment (treating the Letter of Credit Obligations as usage). Such fee shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of the calendar month following the date hereof and the first day of each calendar month thereafter. The Applicable Unused Commitment Fee provided in this subsection 1.9(b) shall accrue at all times from and after mutual execution and delivery of this Agreement. Following receipt of the Applicable Unused Commitment Fee, Administrative Agent shall pay to each Revolving Lender (other than the Swingline Lender with respect to any Swing Loans, and other than any Non-Funding Lender from and after the date such Lender became a Non-Funding Lender and regardless of whether such Non-Funding Lender’s Commitment has been terminated) from, and to the extent of, the Applicable Unused Commitment Fee and interest received by it on the Swing Loans an amount equal to its pro rata share of the Applicable Unused Commitment Fee calculated as if the average daily balance of Swing Loans for the preceding calendar month had been zero.

(c) Letter of Credit Fee. Each Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Lenders, as compensation to such Lenders for Letter of Credit Obligations incurred hereunder on behalf of or for the benefit of such Borrower, (i) without duplication of costs and expenses otherwise payable to Administrative Agent or Lenders hereunder or fees otherwise paid by such Borrower, any costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent or any Lender on account of such Letter of Credit Obligations, and (ii) for each calendar month during which any such Letter of Credit Obligation shall remain outstanding, a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) in an amount equal to the product of the average daily undrawn face amount of all such Letters of Credit issued, guaranteed or supported by risk participation agreements multiplied by a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin with respect to Revolving Loans which are LIBOR Rate Loans; provided, however, that at Required Lenders’ option, while an Event of Default exists (or automatically while an Event of Default under subsection 7.1(a), 7.1(f) or 7.1(g) exists), such rate shall be increased by two percent (2.00%) per annum. Such fee shall be paid to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders in arrears, on the first day of each calendar month and on the date on which all Letter of Credit Obligations have been discharged. In addition, the Applicable Borrower shall pay to any L/C Issuer, on demand, its customary fees at then prevailing rates, without duplication of fees otherwise payable hereunder (including all per annum fees), charges and expenses of such L/C

Issuer in respect of the issuance, negotiation, acceptance, amendment, transfer and payment of such Letter of Credit or otherwise payable pursuant to the application and related documentation under which such Letter of Credit is issued.

(d) Letter of Credit Fronting Fee. Each Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the L/C Issuers, for each calendar month during which any Letter of Credit Obligation shall remain outstanding on its behalf or for its benefit, a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fronting Fee”) in an amount equal to the product of the average daily undrawn face amount of all Letters of Credit issued, guaranteed or supported by risk participation agreements multiplied by 0.125% per annum. Such fee shall be paid to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the L/C Issuers in arrears, on the first day of each calendar month and on the date on which all Letter of Credit Obligations have been discharged.

1.10 Payments by the Borrowers.

(a) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by each Credit Party on account of principal, interest, fees and other amounts required hereunder shall be made without set off, recoupment, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, shall, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, be made to Administrative Agent (for the ratable account of the Persons entitled thereto) at the address for payment specified in the signature page hereof in relation to Administrative Agent (or such other address as Administrative Agent may from time to time specify in accordance with Section 9.2), including payments utilizing the ACH system, and shall be made in Dollars with respect to U.S. Obligations or Dollars or Canadian Dollars, as applicable, with respect to Canadian Obligations and by wire transfer or ACH transfer in immediately available funds (which shall be the exclusive means of payment hereunder), no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date due. Any payment which is received by Administrative Agent later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) may in Administrative Agent’s discretion be deemed to have been received on the immediately succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. Each Borrower and each other Credit Party hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application during the continuance of an Event of Default of any and all payments in respect of any Obligation and any proceeds of Collateral. Each Borrower hereby authorizes Administrative Agent and each Lender to make a Revolving Loan (which shall be a Base Rate Loan or Canadian Index Rate Loan, as applicable, and which may be a Swing Loan) to pay (i) interest, principal (including Swing Loans), L/C Reimbursement Obligations, agent fees, Applicable Unused Commitment Fees and Letter of Credit Fees, payable by such Borrower, in each instance, on the date due, or (ii) after five (5) days’ prior notice to the Borrower Representative, other fees, costs or expenses payable by a Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.

(b) Subject to the provisions set forth in the definition of “Interest Period” herein, if any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

(i) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, payments shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.8(d). All payments and prepayments

applied to a particular Loan shall be applied ratably to the portion thereof held by each Lender as determined by its pro rata share.

(ii) As to all payments made when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or following the Revolving Termination Date, Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments received from or on behalf of Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have the continuing exclusive right to apply any and all such payments against the Obligations as the Administrative Agent may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous entry by the Administrative Agent in the Register or any other books and records.

(iii) In all circumstances after acceleration or maturity of the Obligations, all payments and proceeds of Export-Related Accounts shall be applied to amounts then due and payable in the following order:

first, to payment of costs and expenses, including Attorney Costs, of Administrative Agent payable or reimbursable by the Credit Parties under the Loan Documents and to all obligations owing to the Agents, Swingline Lender, or L/C Issuer by any Non-Funding Lender under the Loan Documents;

second, to payment of Attorney Costs of Lenders payable or reimbursable by the Borrowers under this Agreement;

third, to payment of all accrued unpaid interest on the Export-Related Loans;

fourth, to payment of principal of the Export-Related Loans;

fifth, to payment of all accrued unpaid interest on the Obligations (other than Export-Related Loans) and fees owed to Administrative Agent, Lenders and L/C Issuers;

sixth, to payment of principal of the Obligations (other than Export-Related Loans) including, without limitation, L/C Reimbursement Obligations then due and payable, any Obligations under any Noticed Secured Rate Contract and cash collateralization of unmatured Letter of Credit Obligations to the extent not then due and payable);

seventh, to payment of any Obligations arising under or pursuant to any Noticed Bank Products, on a pro rata basis;

eighth, to payment of any other Obligations then arising under any other Bank Products and any Secured Rate Contracts (other than any Noticed Secured Rate Contracts), on a pro rata basis;

ninth, to payment of any other amounts owing constituting Obligations; and

tenth, any remainder shall be for the account of and paid to whoever may be lawfully entitled thereto.

(iv) In all circumstances after acceleration or maturity of the Obligations, all payments and proceeds of all other Collateral (other than Export-Related Accounts and proceeds thereof) shall be applied to amounts then due and payable in the following order:

second, to payment of Attorney Costs of Lenders payable or reimbursable by the Borrowers under this Agreement;

third, to payment of all accrued unpaid interest on the Obligations (other than Export-Related Loans) and fees owed to Administrative Agent, Lenders and L/C Issuers;

fourth, to payment of principal of the Obligations (other than Export-Related Loans) including, without limitation, L/C Reimbursement Obligations then due and payable, any Obligations under any Noticed Secured Rate Contract and cash collateralization of unmatured Letter of Credit Obligations to the extent not then due and payable);

fifth, to payment of any Obligations arising under or pursuant to any Noticed Bank Products, on a pro rata basis;

sixth, to payment of any other Obligations then arising under any other Bank Products and any Secured Rate Contracts (other than any Noticed Secured Rate Contracts), on a pro rata basis;

seventh, to payment of all accrued unpaid interest on the Export-Related Loans;

eighth, to payment of principal of the Export-Related Loans;

ninth, to payment of any other amounts owing constituting Obligations; and

tenth, any remainder shall be for the account of and paid to whoever may be lawfully entitled thereto.

In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to the application to the next succeeding category and (ii) each of the Lenders or other Persons entitled to payment shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share of amounts available

to be applied pursuant to clauses third, fourth and seventh above. Amounts distributed with respect to any Bank Products shall be the actual amount owing under such Bank Product as calculated by the applicable Bank Product Provider and reported in writing to Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to calculate the amount to be distributed with respect to any Secured Rate Contract or Bank Product, but may rely upon written notice of the amount (setting forth a reasonably detailed calculation) from the applicable Secured Swap Provider or Bank Product Provider. In the absence of such notice, Administrative Agent may assume the amount to be distributed is the amount of such Secured Rate Contract or Bank Product last reported to it.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of subsection 1.10(c), (i) payments from the U.S. Borrowers and proceeds of any U.S. Collateral shall be applied to pay the U.S. Obligations in the order set forth in subsection 1.10(c); in the case of items first and second, to the extent of the U.S. Borrowers’ pro rata share of such Obligations; in the case of item third, to the extent of interest and fees on the Loans and Letters of Credit advanced to, or for the account of, the U.S. Borrowers; and in the case of item fourth to the principal and cash collateralization of Loans advanced to the U.S. Borrowers and Letters of Credit for the U.S. Borrowers’ account, and thereafter, to the Obligations of the Canadian Borrower in the order set forth above and (ii) payments from the Canadian Borrower and proceeds of any Canadian Collateral shall be applied to pay the Canadian Obligations in the order set forth in subsection 1.10(c); in the case of items first and second, to the extent of the Canadian Borrower’s pro rata share of such Obligations; in the case of item third, to the extent of interest and fees on the Loans and Letters of Credit advanced to, or for the account of, the Canadian Borrower; and in the case of item fourth to the principal and cash collateralization of Loans advanced to the Canadian Borrower and Letters of Credit for the Canadian Borrower’s account; provided, that in no event shall payments from the Canadian Borrower or proceeds of any Canadian Collateral be applied to pay the U.S. Obligations.

1.11 Payments by the Lenders to Administrative Agent; Settlement.

(a) Administrative Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, disburse funds to the Applicable Borrower for Loans requested. Each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent on demand for all funds disbursed on its behalf by Administrative Agent, or if Administrative Agent so requests, each Lender will remit to Administrative Agent its Commitment Percentage of any Loan before Administrative Agent disburses same to the Applicable Borrower. If Administrative Agent elects to require that each Lender make funds available to Administrative Agent prior to disbursement by Administrative Agent to the Applicable Borrower, Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender by telephone or fax of the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Loan requested by the Borrower Representative no later than the Business Day prior to the scheduled Borrowing date applicable thereto, and each such Lender shall pay Administrative Agent such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such requested Loan, in same day funds, by wire transfer to Administrative Agent’s account, as set forth on Administrative Agent’s signature page hereto, no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on such scheduled Borrowing date. Nothing in this subsection 1.11(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including the remaining provisions of Section 1.11, shall be deemed to require Administrative Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Administrative Agent, any

Lender or the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

(b) At least once each calendar week or more frequently at Administrative Agent’s election (each, a “Settlement Date”), Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender by telephone or fax of the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of principal, interest and Fees paid for the benefit of Lenders with respect to each applicable Loan. Provided that each Lender has funded all payments required to be made by it and funded all purchases of participations required to be funded by it under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as of such Settlement Date, Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender such Lender’s Commitment Percentage (as increased in accordance with the reallocation and assumption required by the second sentence of subsection 1.1(b)(vii) until such time as such Lenders have received payment in full of the Aggregate Excess Funding Amount) of principal, interest and fees paid by each Borrower since the previous Settlement Date for the benefit of such Lender on the Loans held by it. Such payments shall be made by wire transfer to such Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the next Business Day following each Settlement Date. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to set off the funding shortfall against any Non-Funding Lender’s Commitment Percentage of all payments received from the Borrowers, after making payment in full of the Aggregate Excess Funding Amount to the funding Lenders thereof, and hold, in a non-interest bearing account, all remaining portions of any payments received by Administrative Agent for the benefit of any Non-Funding Lender pursuant to this Agreement as cash collateral for any unfunded reimbursement obligations of such Non-Funding Lender until the Obligations are paid in full in cash, all Letter of Credit Obligations have been discharged or cash collateralized and all Commitments have been terminated, and upon such unfunded obligations owing by a Non-Funding Lender becoming due and payable, Administrative Agent shall be authorized to use such cash collateral to make such payment on behalf of such Non-Funding Lender. Any amounts owing by a Non-Funding Lender to Administrative Agent which are not paid when due shall accrue interest at the interest rate applicable during such period to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans or Canadian Index Rate Loans, as applicable.

(c) Availability of Lender’s Commitment Percentage. Administrative Agent may assume that each Revolving Lender will make its Commitment Percentage of each Revolving Loan available to Administrative Agent on each Borrowing date. If such Commitment Percentage is not, in fact, paid to Administrative Agent by such Revolving Lender when due, Administrative Agent will be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Lender without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. If any Revolving Lender fails to pay the amount of its Commitment Percentage forthwith upon Administrative Agent’s demand, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Applicable Borrower shall immediately repay such amount to Administrative Agent. Nothing in this subsection 1.11(c) or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to require Administrative Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Revolving Lender or to relieve any Revolving Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Borrowers may have against any Revolving Lender as a result of any default by such Revolving Lender hereunder. Without limiting the provisions of subsection 1.11(b), to the extent that Administrative Agent advances funds to any Borrower on behalf of any Revolving Lender and is not reimbursed therefor on the same Business Day as such advance is made, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to retain for its account all interest accrued on such advance from the date such advance was made until reimbursed by the applicable Revolving Lender.

(d) Return of Payments.

(i) If Administrative Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Administrative Agent from any Borrower and such related payment is not received by Administrative Agent, then Administrative Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

(ii) If Administrative Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document must be returned to any Credit Party or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to Administrative Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Administrative Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Administrative Agent is required to pay to any Borrower or such other Person, without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and Administrative Agent will be entitled to set-off against future distributions to such Lender any such amounts (with interest) that are not repaid on demand.

(e) Non-Funding Lenders. The failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make any Revolving Loan, Letter of Credit Obligation or any payment required by it hereunder, or to fund any purchase of any participation to be made or funded by it on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender (each such other Revolving Lender, an “Other Lender”) of its obligations to make such loan or fund the purchase of any such participation on such date, but neither Administrative Agent nor, other than as expressly set forth herein, any Other Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make a loan, fund the purchase of a participation or make any other payment required hereunder. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, a Non-Funding Lender shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document or constitute a “Lender” or a “Revolving Lender” (or be, or have its Loans and Commitments, included in the determination of “Required Lenders” or “Lenders directly affected” pursuant to Section 9.1) for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document; provided, that the Commitment of such Non-Funding Lender shall not be increased or extended without the consent of such Non-Funding Lender. Moreover, for the purposes of determining Required Lenders, the Loans and Commitments held by Non-Funding Lenders shall be excluded from the total Loans and Commitments outstanding.

(f) Procedures. Administrative Agent is hereby authorized by each Credit Party and each other Secured Party to establish procedures (and to amend such procedures from time to time) to facilitate administration and servicing of the Loans and other matters incidental thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to establish procedures to make available or deliver, or to accept, notices, documents and similar items on, by posting to or submitting and/or completion on, E-Systems.

1.12 Borrower Representative. Each Borrower hereby designates and appoints Axiall as its representative and agent on its behalf (the “Borrower Representative”) for the purposes of issuing Notices of Borrowings, Notices of Conversion/Continuation, L/C Requests and Swingline Requests, delivering certificates including Compliance Certificates and Borrowing Base Certificates, giving instructions with respect to the disbursement of the proceeds of the Loans,

selecting interest rate options, giving and receiving all other notices and consents hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and taking all other actions (including in respect of compliance with covenants) on behalf of any Borrower or the Borrowers under the Loan Documents. Borrower Representative hereby accepts such appointment. Administrative Agent and each Lender may regard any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document from Borrower Representative as a notice or communication from all Borrowers. Each warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on behalf of a Borrower by Borrower Representative shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower to the same extent as if the same had been made directly by such Borrower.

1.13 Eligible Accounts. All of the Accounts (other than Export-Related Accounts and Designated Eligible Foreign Accounts) (i) owned by each Credit Party, (ii) arising from the actual and bona fide sale and delivery of goods by such Credit Party or rendition of services by such Credit Party in the ordinary course of its business which transactions are completed in accordance with the terms and provisions contained in any documents related thereto and (iii) properly reflected as “Eligible Accounts” in the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate delivered by Borrower Representative to Administrative Agent shall be “Eligible Accounts” for purposes of this Agreement, except any Account to which any of the exclusionary criteria set forth below applies. The Co-Collateral Agents shall have the right to establish, modify or eliminate Reserves against Eligible Accounts from time to time in their Permitted Discretion. Eligible Accounts shall not include the following Accounts of a Credit Party:

1.15 Increases and Reductions of Commitments.

(a) Axiall may at any time and from time to time, by written notice to Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver a copy thereof to each Lender) executed by Axiall and one or more financial institutions (the “Increasing Lenders”), which may include any Lender, cause new Commitments to be extended by the Increasing Lenders (or cause the

Commitments of the Increasing Lenders that are already Lenders to be increased, as the case may be) in an amount for each Increasing Lender (which shall not be less than $5,000,000) set forth in such notice; provided, that (i) the new Commitments and increases in existing Commitments pursuant to this paragraph shall not be greater than $200,000,000 in the aggregate during the term of this Agreement and shall not be less than $15,000,000 (or any portion of such $200,000,000 aggregate amount remaining unused) for any such increase and (ii) each Increasing Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder, shall become a party to this Agreement by completing and delivering to Administrative Agent a duly executed accession agreement in a form satisfactory to Administrative Agent and Axiall (an “Accession Agreement”). Any Incremental Facility (as defined below) shall have the same terms (including, without limitation, applicable interest rates and fees pursuant to Section 1.9), and be subject to the same Loan Documents, as the Commitments existing immediately prior to the effectiveness of such Incremental Facility. Each existing Lender shall, by notice to Axiall and Administrative Agent given not later than 10 days after the date of Administrative Agent’s notice delivered pursuant to the first sentence of this subsection, either agree to provide a portion of any Incremental Facility (as defined below), or decline to do so (and any existing Lender that does not deliver such notice within such period of 10 days shall be deemed to have declined to do so). In the event that, on the 10th day after Administrative Agent shall have delivered the notice pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph, the existing Lenders shall have agreed to provide an Incremental Facility in an aggregate amount greater than the amount requested by Axiall, allocations of the Commitments of the existing Lenders with respect to such Incremental Facility shall be allocated proportionately among such existing Lenders in accordance with the amounts of such Incremental Facility that such existing Lenders agreed to provide. In the event that, on the 10th day after Administrative Agent shall have delivered the notice pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph, the existing Lenders shall have agreed to provide an Incremental Facility in an aggregate amount less than the amount requested by Axiall, the remaining portion of such Incremental Facility may be provided by any other bank or other financial institution; provided, that Administrative Agent and each L/C Issuer that is a Lender consents to such Person becoming a Lender hereunder (which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) if such consent would be required under subsection 9.9(b) for an assignment of Loans to such Person. Any new Commitments and increases in Commitments shall become effective on the date specified in the applicable notices delivered pursuant to this Section 1.15 (but not prior to, for any Increasing Lender that is not already a Lender, execution and delivery by such Increasing Lender of an Accession Agreement). Upon the effectiveness of any Accession Agreement to which any Increasing Lender is a party, such Increasing Lender shall thereafter be deemed to be a party to this Agreement and shall be entitled to all rights, benefits and privileges and subject to all obligations of a Lender hereunder. Upon the effectiveness of any new Commitments or increases in existing Commitments, Schedule 1.1(a) shall be deemed to have been amended to reflect the Commitments of the Increasing Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no extension of or increase in Commitments pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective unless (A) on a pro forma basis for the initial Borrowing under any such Incremental Facility and the application of the proceeds therefrom, (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) Excess Availability shall be equal to or greater than the Threshold Amount, (B) Administrative Agent shall have received those documents reasonably satisfactory to it, and (C) on the effective date of such increase, the conditions set forth in Sections 2.2, shall be satisfied (with all references in such Sections to the making of a Loan or the incurrence of a Letter of Credit Obligation being deemed to be references to such extension of or increase in Commitments). On the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) of any extension of or increase in Commitments pursuant to this Section 1.15 (an “Incremental Facility”), (1) the aggregate principal amount of

the Borrowings outstanding (the “Initial Borrowings”) immediately prior to the Commitment Increase on the Increase Effective Date shall be deemed to be paid, (2) each Increasing Lender that shall have had a Commitment prior to the Commitment Increase shall pay to Administrative Agent in same day funds an amount in Dollars or Canadian Dollars, as applicable, equal to the difference between (I) the product of (x) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage (calculated after giving effect to the Commitment Increase) multiplied by (y) the amount of each Subsequent Borrowing (as hereinafter defined) and (II) the product of (x) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage (calculated without giving effect to the Commitment Increase) multiplied by (y) the amount of each Initial Borrowing, (3) each Increasing Lender that shall not have had a Commitment prior to the Commitment Increase shall pay to Administrative Agent in same day funds an amount in Dollars or Canadian Dollars, as applicable, equal to the product of (I) such Increasing Lender’s Commitment Percentage (calculated after giving effect to the Commitment Increase) multiplied by (II) the amount of each Subsequent Borrowing, (4) after it receives the funds specified in clauses (2) and (3) above, Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender the portion of such funds that is equal to the difference between (I) the product of (x) such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated without giving effect to the Commitment Increase) multiplied by (y) the amount of each Initial Borrowing and (II) the product of (x) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage (calculated after giving effect to the Commitment Increase) multiplied by (y) the amount of each Subsequent Borrowing, (5) after the effectiveness of the Commitment Increase, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have made new Borrowings (the “Subsequent Borrowings”) in amounts equal to the amounts of the Initial Borrowings and of the Types and for the Interest Periods of the Initial Borrowings, (6) each Lender shall be deemed to hold its Commitment Percentage of each Subsequent Borrowing (calculated after giving effect to the Commitment Increase) and (7) the Borrowers shall pay each Lender any and all accrued but unpaid interest on its Loans comprising the Initial Borrowings. The deemed payments made pursuant to clause (1) above shall be subject to compensation by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 10.4 if the Increase Effective Date occurs other than on the last day of the Interest Period of any Initial Borrowing relating thereto. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the proceeds of any Incremental Facility shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.10.

(b) Optional Termination or Reduction.

(i) The Borrowers may, upon notice to Administrative Agent, terminate or from time to time permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment; provided, that (A) any such notice must be received by Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. three Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (B) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (C) simultaneously with any such reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, the Canadian Revolving Loan Sublimit shall be automatically reduced proportionately and (D) the Borrowers shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and any concurrent payment of any L/C Reimbursement Obligation and repayments of any Loans, (x) the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans would exceed the Maximum Revolving Loan Balance (y) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding U.S. Revolving Loans would exceed the Maximum U.S. Revolving Loan Balance and (z) the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Canadian Revolving Loans would exceed the Maximum Canadian Revolving Loan Balance.

(ii) Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment under clause (i) above. Upon any such reduction, the Commitment of each Lender shall be reduced by such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such reduction amount. All fees accrued on the amount of the Commitments so terminated or reduced to, but excluding, the date of any such termination or reduction shall be payable on the effective date of such termination or reduction.

1.16 Eligible Export-Related Accounts. All of the Export-Related Accounts of the U.S. Credit Parties reflected in the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate delivered by the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent shall be “Eligible Export-Related Accounts” for purposes of this Agreement, except any Account to which any of the exclusionary criteria set forth in Exhibit 1.16 apply. The Co-Collateral Agents shall have the right to establish, modify or eliminate Reserves against Eligible Export-Related Accounts from time to time in their Permitted Discretion. Eligible Export-Related Accounts shall not include any Export-Related Account of the U.S. Credit Parties that does not satisfy the criteria set forth (x) in the definition of “Eligible Export-Related Account Receivable” contained in the Ex-Im Bank Borrower Agreement and (y) in Exhibit 1.16. For the avoidance of doubt, no Account that is an obligation of an Account Debtor located in Canada shall be an “Eligible Export-Related Account” under this Agreement.

4.6 Insurance.

(a) Each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, maintain with insurance companies that the Borrowers believe (in the good faith judgment of their management) are financially sound and reputable at the time the relevant coverage is placed or renewed, insurance with respect to its properties and business against loss or damage of the kinds customarily insured against by Persons engaged in the same or similar business, of such types and in such amounts (after giving effect to any self-insurance reasonable and customary for similarly situated Persons engaged in the same or similar businesses as the Borrowers and their Restricted Subsidiaries) as are customarily carried under similar circumstances by such other Persons, and will furnish to the Lenders, upon reasonable written request from the Administrative Agent, information presented in reasonable detail as to the

insurance so carried. Each such policy of insurance shall, (i) name the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, as an additional insured thereunder as its interests may appear and/or (ii) in the case of each applicable property and casualty insurance policy, contain a loss payable clause or endorsement that names the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, as the loss payee thereunder.

(b) Unless the Credit Parties provide Administrative Agent with evidence of the insurance coverage required by this Agreement, at any time during a Cash Dominion Period, Administrative Agent may purchase insurance at the Credit Parties’ expense to protect Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ interests in the Credit Parties’ and their Restricted Subsidiaries’ properties. This insurance may, but need not, protect the Credit Parties’ and their Restricted Subsidiaries’ interests. The coverage that Administrative Agent purchases may not pay any claim that any Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Credit Party makes or any claim that is made against such Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with said Property. The Borrowers may later cancel any insurance purchased by Administrative Agent, but only after providing Administrative Agent with evidence that there has been obtained insurance as required by this Agreement. If Administrative Agent purchases insurance, the Credit Parties will be responsible for the costs of that insurance, including interest and any other charges Administrative Agent may impose in connection with the placement of insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or expiration of the insurance. The costs of the insurance shall be added to the Obligations. The costs of the insurance may be more than the cost of insurance the Borrowers may be able to obtain on their own.

4.7 Payment of Taxes and Claims. Each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, duly pay and discharge all United States federal, Canadian federal, state and provincial taxes and all other material taxes, assessments and other similar governmental charges or levies imposed upon or against it or its properties or assets, except for (and to the extent of) taxes, assessments and governmental charges the validity of which is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently pursued which stay the filing or enforcement of any Lien, as the case may be, and with respect to which adequate reserves

have been set aside on its books to the extent required by GAAP.

4.8 Compliance with Laws. Each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, comply with all Requirements of Law of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over it or its business, except where the failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

4.9 Inspection of Property and Books and Records. Each Credit Party will, and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, maintain a system of accounting established and administered in accordance with GAAP in all material respects, and will, and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, keep adequate records and books of account in which complete and correct entries in all material respects will be made in accordance with such accounting principles consistently applied and reflecting all transactions required to be reflected by such accounting principles. Each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, with respect to each owned, leased, or controlled property, during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice (unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in which event no notice shall be required and the Co-Collateral Agents shall have access at any and all times during the continuance thereof): (a) provide access to such property to the Co-Collateral Agents and any of their Related Persons (subject to accountants’ customary policies and

procedures), as frequently as the Co-Collateral Agents determine to be appropriate, upon reasonably advance notice to the Borrowers, for the purposes of inspecting, verifying and auditing the Collateral and all of each Credit Party’s books and records (including making extracts and copies thereof); and (b) permit the Co-Collateral Agents and any of their Related Persons to conduct field examinations; provided, that (i) the Co-Collateral Agents shall not exercise such rights more often than two (2) times during any calendar year and only one (1) such time shall be at the Borrowers’ expense and (ii) if Excess Availability is less than 20% of the then existing Revolving Loan Commitments for a period of three consecutive Business Days, the Co-Collateral Agents shall be permitted to request, and the Credit Parties shall be required to bear the cost of, two such field examinations in any calendar year; provided, further, that, notwithstanding any of the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, there shall be no limit on the number of inspections or field examinations which may be requested by the Co-Collateral Agents or the Required Lenders, and the Borrowers shall be required to bear the cost of all such inspections and field examinations. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any Lender may accompany the Co-Collateral Agents or their Related Persons in connection with any inspection at such Lender’s expense.

4.10 Use of Proceeds. The Borrowers shall use the proceeds of the Loans solely as follows: (a) to pay costs and expenses of the Transactions and costs and expenses required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.1, and all professional fees, investment banking fees, and other fees and expenses incurred by the Credit Parties in connection with any of the foregoing or the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and (b) for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes not in contravention of any Requirement of Law and not in violation of this Agreement.

4.11 Cash Management Systems.

(a) On the Effective Date, each Credit Party shall enter into, and cause each depository, securities intermediary or commodities intermediary to enter into, Control Agreements providing for “springing” cash dominion (including, without limitation, providing for “control” thereover as such term is defined in the Securities Transfer Act (2006) (Ontario) in respect of Canadian Collateral) with respect to each deposit, securities, commodity or similar account maintained by such Person (other than any Excluded Account) as of the Effective Date. The Credit Parties shall not, directly or indirectly, after the Effective Date, open, establish or maintain any deposit, securities, commodity or similar account (other than an Excluded Account) unless on or before the opening of such account, such Credit Party shall deliver to Administrative Agent a Control Agreement with respect to such account. In addition, at Administrative Agent’s request, Credit Parties will enter into Control Agreements providing for springing cash dominion over disbursement accounts as of the Effective Date, except as set forth in the preceding sentence. With respect to accounts subject to “springing” Control Agreements or such “control”, Administrative Agent may deliver to the relevant depository, securities intermediary or commodities intermediary a notice or other instruction which provides for exclusive control over such account by Administrative Agent only during a Cash Dominion Period. The Credit Parties shall not maintain cash on deposit in disbursement accounts in excess of outstanding checks and wire transfers payable from such accounts and amounts necessary to meet minimum balance requirements.

(b) The Borrower Representative may from time to time provide a written request to the Administrative Agent requesting that the Administrative Agent permit the

withdrawal of a requested amount of Qualified Cash from any Qualified Cash Securities Account and, within two (2) Business Days of such written request, the Administrative Agent shall permit (or, if the relevant Qualified Cash Securities Account is not held with the Administrative Agent, shall instruct the relevant depositary bank or securities intermediary to so permit) the withdrawal of the requested amount of Qualified Cash in accordance with the written instructions of the Borrower Representative so long as (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from such withdrawal of the requested amount of Qualified Cash in accordance with such written instructions of the Borrower Representative, (ii) after giving effect to such withdrawal, (A) the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans shall not exceed the Maximum Revolving Loan Balance, (B) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding U.S. Revolving Loans shall not exceed the Maximum U.S. Revolving Loan Balance and ( C) the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Canadian Revolving Loans shall not exceed the Maximum Canadian Revolving Loan Balance (it being agreed that, immediately upon such withdrawal, without any further act of any Person, the U.S. Borrowing Base or the Canadian Borrowing Base, as applicable, shall be calculated excluding the amount of Qualified Cash so withdrawn), and (iii) the Borrower Representative shall have provided an update to the Borrowing Base Certificate most recently delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 4.2(d) reflecting the result of such withdrawal on the calculation of the U.S. Borrowing Base or the Canadian Borrowing Base, as applicable.

(c) On or before the first date of Borrowing of any Export-Related Loans, the U.S. Borrowers shall have established a Control Agreement (the “Export-Related Blocked Account”) over a deposit account with a financial institution to be agreed (the “Export-Related Blocked Account Depositary Bank”) and shall, in connection with payments in respect of Export-Related Accounts, request in writing and otherwise take such reasonable steps to ensure that all Account Debtors of Export-Related Accounts forward payment directly to deposit or cause to be deposited promptly, and in any event no later than the first Business Day after receipt thereof, all cash, checks, drafts or similar items of payment relating to or constituting payments made in respect of Export-Related Accounts into the Export-Related Blocked Account, which cash, checks, drafts or similar items for payment shall be segregated from other cash, drafts or similar items of payment relating to or constituting payments made in respect of the other Collateral. On or before the first date of Borrowing of any Export-Related Loans, the U.S. Borrowers shall have established a concentration account in its name (the “Export-Related Concentration Account”) subject to a Control Agreement with a financial institution reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (the “Export-Related Concentration Account Bank”). Each such Control Agreement shall provide that such Export-Related Blocked Account Depositary Bank agrees to forward immediately all amounts in such Export-Related Blocked Account to the Export-Related Concentration Account Bank and to commence the process of daily sweeps from such the Export-Related Blocked Account into the Export-Related Concentration Account.

4.12 Landlord Agreements. Each Credit Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a landlord agreement or bailee waivers, as applicable, from the lessor of each leased property where any Collateral with an aggregate book value of more than $750,000 is stored or located, or bailee in possession of any Collateral with an aggregate book value of more than $750,000, which agreement shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Administrative Agent. The Lenders and the Administrative Agent acknowledge and agree that “commercially reasonable efforts” shall not include any obligation of any Credit Party to cause

the issuance of any letter of credit for the benefit of any such lessor or bailee as a condition to obtaining such landlord agreement or bailee waiver.

4.13 Further Assurances.

(a) Each Credit Party shall ensure that all written information, exhibits and reports furnished to Administrative Agent or the Lenders do not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact and do not and will not omit to state any material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading in any material respect in light of the circumstances in which made, and will promptly disclose to Administrative Agent and the Lenders and correct any defect or error that may be discovered therein or in any Loan Document or in the execution, acknowledgement or recordation thereof.

Under the Loan Documents, each Agent (i) is acting solely on behalf of the Secured Parties (except to the limited extent provided in subsection 1.4(b) with respect to the Register), with duties that are entirely administrative in nature, notwithstanding the use of the defined term “Administrative Agent”, “Co-Collateral Agent”, as applicable, or the terms “agent” and “collateral agent” and similar terms in any Loan Document to refer to any Agent, which terms are used for title purposes only, (ii) is not assuming any obligation under any Loan Document other than as expressly set forth therein or any role as agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender, L/C Issuer or any other Person and (iii) shall have no implied functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or other liabilities under any Loan Document, and each Secured Party, by accepting the benefits of the Loan Documents, hereby waives and agrees not to assert any claim against any Agent based on the roles, duties and legal relationships expressly disclaimed in clauses (i) through (iii) above.

8.2 Binding Effect. Each Secured Party, by accepting the benefits of the Loan Documents, agrees that (i) any action taken by Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if expressly required hereby, a greater proportion of the Lenders) in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, (ii) any action taken by Administrative Agent in reliance upon the instructions of Required Lenders (or, where so required, such greater proportion) and (iii) the exercise by Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, where so required, such greater proportion) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Secured Parties.

8.3 Use of Discretion.

(a) Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided, that Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Requirement of Law; and

(b) Administrative Agent shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Credit Party or its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

8.4 Delegation of Rights and Duties. Administrative Agent may, upon any term or condition it specifies, delegate or exercise any of its rights, powers and remedies under, and delegate or perform any of its duties or any other action with respect to, any Loan Document by or through any trustee, co- agent, employee, attorney-in-fact and any other Person (including any Secured Party). Any such Person shall benefit from this Article VIII to the extent provided by Administrative Agent.

(b) No Agent and no Related Person of any Agent shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with any Loan Document, and each Secured Party, each Borrower and each other Credit Party hereby waives and shall not assert (and each of the Borrowers shall cause each other Credit Party to waive and agree not to assert) any right, claim or cause of action based thereon, except to the extent of liabilities resulting primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent or, as the case may be, such Related Person (each as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction) in connection with the duties expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the foregoing, no Agent:

(i) shall be responsible or otherwise incur liability for any action or omission taken in reliance upon the instructions of the Required Lenders or for the actions or omissions of any of its Related Persons selected with reasonable care (other than employees, officers and directors of Administrative Agent, when acting on behalf of Administrative Agent);

(iv) shall have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any provision of any Loan Document, whether any condition set forth in any Loan Document is satisfied or waived, as to the financial condition of any Credit Party or as to the existence or continuation or possible occurrence or continuation of any Default or Event of Default and shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of such occurrence or continuation unless it has received a notice from the Borrower Representative, any Lender or L/C Issuer describing such Default or Event of Default clearly labeled “notice of default” (in which case Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice of such receipt to all Lenders);

and, for each of the items set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above, each Lender, L/C Issuer and each Borrower hereby waives and agrees not to assert (and each Borrower shall cause each other Credit Party to waive and agree not to assert) any right, claim or cause of action it might have against any Agent based thereon.

(c) Each Lender and L/C Issuer (i) acknowledges that it has performed and will continue to perform its own diligence and has made and will continue to make its own independent investigation of the operations, financial conditions and affairs of the Credit Parties and (ii) agrees that is shall not rely on any audit or other report provided by Administrative Agent or its Related Persons (an “Administrative Agent Report”). Each Lender and L/C Issuer further acknowledges that any Administrative Agent Report (i) is provided to the Lenders and L/C Issuers solely as a courtesy, without consideration, and based upon the understanding that such Lender or L/C Issuer will not rely on such Administrative Agent Report, (ii) was prepared by Administrative Agent or its Related Persons based upon information provided by the Credit Parties solely for Administrative Agent’s own internal use, (iii) may not be complete and may not reflect all information and findings obtained by Administrative Agent or its Related Persons regarding the operations and condition of the Credit Parties.

(d) Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Persons shall have any duties or obligations in connection with or as a result of any Lender or L/C Issuer receiving a copy of any Administrative Agent Report. Without limiting the generality of the forgoing, neither Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Persons shall have any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any Administrative Agent Report, or the appropriateness of any Administrative Agent Report for any Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s purposes, and shall have no duty or responsibility to correct or update any Administrative Agent Report or disclose to any Lender or L/C Issuer any other information not embodied in any Administrative Agent Report, including any supplemental information obtained after the date of any Administrative Agent Report. Each Lender and L/C Issuer releases, and agrees that it will not assert, any claim against Administrative Agent or its Related Persons that in any way relates to any Administrative Agent Report or arises out of any Lender or L/C Issuer having access to any Administrative Agent Report or any discussion of its contents.

8.6 Agents Individually. Each Agent and its Affiliates may make loans and other extensions of credit to, acquire Stock and Stock Equivalents of, engage in any kind of business with, any Credit Party or Affiliate thereof as though it were not acting as such Agent and may receive separate fees and other payments therefor. To the extent any Agent or any of its Affiliates makes any Loan or otherwise becomes a Lender hereunder, it shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and shall be subject to the same obligations and liabilities as any other Lender and the terms “Lender”, “Revolving Lender”, “Required Lender” and any similar terms shall, except where otherwise expressly provided in any Loan Document, include, without limitation, such Agent or such Affiliate, as the case may be, in its individual capacity as Lender, Revolving Lender or as one of the Required Lenders.

8.7 Lender Credit Decision.

(a) Each Lender and each L/C Issuer acknowledges that it shall, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, any Lender or L/C Issuer or any of their Related Persons or upon any document (including any offering and disclosure materials in connection with the syndication of the Loans) solely or in part because such document was transmitted by any Agent or any of their Related Persons, conduct its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of each Credit Party and make and continue to make its own credit decisions in connection with entering into, and taking or not taking any action under, any Loan Document or with respect to any transaction contemplated in any Loan Document, in each case based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate. Except for documents expressly required by any Loan Document to be transmitted by any Agent to the Lenders or L/C Issuers, no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender or L/C Issuer with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party that may come in to the possession of such Agent or any of its Related Persons.

(b) If any Lender or L/C Issuer has elected to abstain from receiving MNPI concerning the Credit Parties or their Affiliates, such Lender or L/C Issuer acknowledges that, notwithstanding such election, Administrative Agent and/or the Credit Parties will, from time to time, make available syndicate-information (which may contain MNPI) as required by the terms of, or in the course of administering the Loans to the credit contact(s) identified for receipt of such information on the Lender’s administrative questionnaire who are able to receive and use all

syndicate-level information (which may contain MNPI) in accordance with such Lender’s compliance policies and contractual obligations and applicable law, including federal and state securities laws; provided, that if such contact is not so identified in such questionnaire, the relevant Lender or L/C Issuer hereby agrees to promptly (and in any event within one (1) Business Day) provide such a contact to Administrative Agent and the Credit Parties upon request therefor by Administrative Agent or the Credit Parties. Notwithstanding such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s election to abstain from receiving MNPI, such Lender or L/C Issuer acknowledges that if such Lender or L/C Issuer chooses to communicate with Administrative Agent, it assumes the risk of receiving MNPI concerning the Credit Parties or their Affiliates.

8.8 Expenses; Indemnities; Withholding.

(a) Each Lender agrees to reimburse each Agent and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by any Credit Party) promptly upon demand, severally and ratably, for any costs and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of financial, legal and other advisors and Other Taxes paid in the name of, or on behalf of, any Credit Party) that may be incurred by such Agent or any of its Related Persons in connection with the preparation, syndication, execution, delivery, administration, modification, consent, waiver or enforcement (whether through negotiations, through any work-out, bankruptcy, restructuring, debtor-in-possession proceeding or other legal or other proceeding or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of its rights or responsibilities under, any Loan Document.

(b) Each Lender further agrees to indemnify each Agent, each L/C Issuer and each of their respective Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by any Credit Party), severally and ratably, from and against Liabilities (including, as described in subsection 8.8(c) and to the extent not indemnified thereunder, taxes, interests and penalties imposed for not properly withholding or backup withholding on payments made to or for the account of any Lender and any taxes attributable to any Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.9(g) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent or L/C Issuer or any of its Related Persons in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of any Loan Document or any other act, event or transaction related, contemplated in or attendant to any such document, or, in each case, any action taken or omitted to be taken by such Agent or L/C Issuer or any of its Related Persons under or with respect to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable to any Agent or L/C Issuer or any of their respective Related Persons to the extent such liability has resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent, L/C Issuer or Related Person, as the case may be, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order.

(c) To the extent required by any applicable law, Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender under a Loan Document an amount equal to any applicable withholding tax. If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate certification form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or fails to establish an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax with respect to a particular type of payment, or because such Lender failed to notify Administrative Agent or any other Person of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason), or Administrative Agent reasonably determines that it was required to withhold taxes from a prior payment but failed to do so, such

Lender shall promptly indemnify Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by such Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and together with all expenses incurred by Administrative Agent, including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses. Administrative Agent may offset against any payment to any Lender under a Loan Document, any applicable withholding tax that was required to be withheld from any prior payment to such Lender but which was not so withheld, as well as any other amounts for which Administrative Agent is entitled to indemnification from such Lender under this Section 8.8(c).

8.9 Resignation of Administrative Agent or L/C Issuer.

(a) Any Agent may resign at any time by delivering notice of such resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower Representative, effective on the date set forth in such notice or, if no such date is set forth therein, upon the date such notice shall be effective in accordance with the terms of this Section 8.9. If any Agent delivers any such notice, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent (other than a successor Co-Collateral Agent to Xxxxx Fargo). If, within 30 days after the retiring Agent having given notice of resignation, no successor Agent has been appointed by the Required Lenders that has accepted such appointment, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent from among the Lenders (it being understood that in the event that Xxxxx Fargo resigns as Co-Collateral Agent, Xxxxx Fargo may not have such right to appoint a successor Co-Collateral Agent). Each appointment under this clause (a) shall be subject to the prior consent of the Borrowers, which may not be unreasonably withheld but shall not be required during the continuance of an Event of Default.

(b) Effective immediately upon its resignation, (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents, (ii) the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of such Agent until a successor Agent shall have accepted a valid appointment hereunder, (iii) the retiring Agent and its Related Persons shall no longer have the benefit of any provision of any Loan Document other than with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken while such retiring Agent was, or because such Agent had been, validly acting as an Agent under the Loan Documents and (iv) subject to its rights under Section 8.3, the retiring Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Agent its rights as such Agent under the Loan Documents. Effective immediately upon its acceptance of a valid appointment as such Agent, a successor Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent under the Loan Documents.

(c) Any L/C Issuer may refuse to issue a Letter of Credit in its sole discretion. Any Lender that is an L/C Issuer may at any time assign all of its Commitments pursuant to, and subject to the terms of, Section 9.9. If such L/C Issuer ceases to be a Lender, it may, at its option, resign as L/C Issuer. In addition, any L/C Issuer may, at any time give notice of its resignation to Administrative Agent and the Borrowers. Upon the resignation of such L/C Issuer, such L/C Issuer’s obligations to issue Letters of Credit shall terminate but it shall retain all of the rights and obligations of an L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation and all Letter of Credit Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations), shall continue.

8.10 Release of Collateral or Guarantors. Each Lender and L/C Issuer hereby consents to the release and hereby directs Administrative Agent to release (or, in the case of clause (b)(ii) below, release or subordinate) the following:

(a) any Restricted Subsidiary of a Borrower from its guaranty of any Obligation if all of the Stock and Stock Equivalents of such Restricted Subsidiary owned by any Credit Party are sold or transferred in a transaction permitted under the Loan Documents (including pursuant to a waiver or consent); and

(b) any Lien held by Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties against (i) any Collateral that is sold, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of by a Credit Party in a transaction permitted by the Loan Documents (including pursuant to a waiver or consent), (ii) any property subject to a Lien permitted hereunder in reliance upon subsection 5.1(h) and (iii) all of the Collateral and all Credit Parties, upon (A) termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments, (B) payment and satisfaction in full of all Loans, all L/C Reimbursement Obligations and all other Obligations under the Loan Documents and all Obligations arising under Secured Rate Contracts, that Administrative Agent has theretofore been notified in writing by the holder of such Obligation are then due and payable, (C) deposit of cash collateral with respect to all contingent Obligations (or, as an alternative to cash collateral in the case of any Letter of Credit Obligation, receipt by Administrative Agent of a back-up letter of credit), in amounts and on terms and conditions and with parties satisfactory to Administrative Agent and each Indemnitee that is, or may be, owed such Obligations (excluding contingent Obligations (other than L/C Reimbursement Obligations) as to which no claim has been asserted) and (D) to the extent requested by Administrative Agent, receipt by Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties of liability releases from the Credit Parties each in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent.

Each Lender and L/C Issuer hereby directs Administrative Agent, and Administrative Agent hereby agrees, upon receipt of at least five (5) Business Days’ advance notice from the Borrower Representative, to execute and deliver or file such documents and to perform other actions reasonably necessary to release the guaranties and Liens when and as directed in this Section 8.10.

8.11 Additional Secured Parties.

(a) The benefit of the provisions of the Loan Documents directly relating to the Collateral or any Lien granted thereunder shall extend to and be available to any Secured Party that is not a Lender or L/C Issuer party hereto as long as, by accepting such benefits, such Secured Party agrees, as among Administrative Agent and all other Secured Parties, that such Secured Party is bound by (and, if requested by Administrative Agent, shall confirm such agreement in a writing in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent) this Article VIII and Sections 9.3, 9.9, 9.10, 9.11, 9.17, 9.24 and 10.1 (and, solely with respect to L/C Issuers, subsection 1.1(c)) and the decisions and actions of Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders (or, where expressly required by the terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders or other parties hereto as required herein) to the same extent a Lender is bound; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) each of Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers party hereto shall be entitled to act at its sole discretion, without regard to the interest of such Secured Party, regardless of whether any Obligation to such Secured Party thereafter remains outstanding, is deprived of the benefit of the Collateral, becomes

unsecured or is otherwise affected or put in jeopardy thereby, and without any duty or liability to such Secured Party or any such Obligation and (b) except as otherwise set forth herein, such Secured Party shall not have any right to be notified of, consent to, direct, require or be heard with respect to, any action taken or omitted in respect of the Collateral or under any Loan Document.

(b) Bank Products. Each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed a third party beneficiary hereof and of the provisions of the other Loan Documents for purposes of any reference in a Loan Document to the parties for whom Administrative Agent is acting; it being understood and agreed that the rights and benefits of such Bank Product Provider under the Loan Documents consist exclusively of such Bank Product Provider’s being a beneficiary of the Liens and security interests granted to Administrative Agent and the right to share in payments and collections out of the Collateral as more fully set forth herein.

8.12 Documentation Agent and Syndication Agent. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Documentation Agent and Syndication Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, nor shall the Documentation Agent and Syndication Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Documentation Agent and Syndication Agent. At any time that any Lender serving (or whose Affiliate is serving) as Documentation Agent and/or Syndication Agent shall have transferred to any other Person (other than any Affiliates) all of its interests in the Loans and the Revolving Loan Commitment, such Lender (or an Affiliate of such Lender acting as Documentation Agent or Syndication Agent) shall be deemed to have concurrently resigned as such Documentation Agent and/or Syndication Agent.

8.13 Co-Collateral Agent Discretionary Matters. This Agreement provides that certain matters (the “Co-Collateral Agent Discretionary Matters”) are subject to the discretion of the Co-Collateral Agents. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each party hereto hereby agree that for so long as Xxxxx Fargo remains as a Co-Collateral Agent, Xxxxx Fargo shall be entitled to consult with GE Capital on the Co-Collateral Agent Discretionary Matters. In the event that Xxxxx Fargo and GE Capital cannot, after consultation, agree on any Co-Collateral Agent Discretionary Matter, the parties hereto agree that GE Capital shall apply the determination made by Xxxxx Fargo to the extent that Xxxxx Fargo’s determination (x) is a more conservative exercise of credit judgment than the determination made by GE Capital and (y) complies with any standard set forth in the Credit Agreement with respect to such Co-Collateral Agent Discretionary Matter. GE Capital hereby acknowledges and agrees that if, when and to the extent GE Capital, in its capacity as Administrative Agent or Co-Collateral Agent, receives any information or document reasonably necessary or desirable in Xxxxx Fargo’s exercise of any rights set forth under the Credit Agreement in its capacity as a Co-Collateral Agent, GE Capital shall promptly forward to Xxxxx Fargo such information or document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Xxxxx Fargo hereby acknowledges and agrees that GE Capital in its capacity as Administrative Agent or Co-Collateral Agent shall not be required to obtain the consent or approval of Xxxxx Fargo in connection with any exercise of its rights or remedies under the Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents, except as otherwise required under the Credit Agreement.

8.14 Quebec Security. For greater certainty, and without limiting the powers of Administrative Agent hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, each of the Lenders

hereby acknowledges that Administrative Agent shall, for purposes of holding any security granted by the Borrowers or any other Person on its property pursuant to the laws of the Province of Quebec to secure payment of the bonds, notes or other titles of indebtedness, be the holder of an irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir) (within the meaning of the Civil Code of Quebec) for itself and all present and future Secured Parties and in particular for all present and future holders of such bonds, notes or other titles of indebtedness. Each of Administrative Agent and Lenders hereby irrevocably constitutes, to the extent necessary, Administrative Agent as the holder of an irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir) (within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec) in order to hold security granted by the Borrowers or any other Person in the Province of Quebec to secure such bonds, notes or other title of indebtedness. Each permitted assignee of the Lenders shall be deemed to have confirmed and ratified the constitution of Administrative Agent as the holder of such irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir) by execution of the relevant assignment of its interest. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 32 of An Act respecting the Special Powers of Legal Persons (Quebec), Administrative Agent may acquire and be the holder of such bonds, notes or other titles of indebtedness, as agent and pledgee for its own account and for the benefit of all Secured Parties. The execution prior to the date hereof by the Administrative Agent of any deed of hypothec or other security documents made pursuant to the laws of the Province of Quebec, is hereby ratified and confirmed. For greater certainty, the Administrative Agent, acting as the holder of an irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir), shall have the same rights, powers, immunities, indemnities and exclusions from liability as are prescribed in favor of the Administrative Agent in this Agreement, which shall apply mutatis mutandis. In the event of the resignation or appointment of a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall also act as the holder of an irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir).

ARTICLE IX.

NONE OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY OF THEIR RELATED PERSONS WARRANTS THE ACCURACY, ADEQUACY OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY E-SYSTEMS OR ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION AND DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS THEREIN.

9.6 Indemnity.

(a) Each Credit Party agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend each Agent, each Lender, each Arranger, each L/C Issuer and each of their respective Related Persons (each such Person being an “Indemnitee”) from and against all Liabilities (including brokerage commissions, fees and other compensation) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of (i) any Loan Document, the Transactions, any Obligation (or the repayment thereof), any Letter of Credit, the use or intended use of the proceeds of any Loan or the use of any Letter of Credit or any securities filing of, or with respect to, any Credit Party, (ii) any commitment letter, proposal letter or term sheet with any Person or any Contractual Obligation, arrangement or understanding with any broker, finder or consultant, in each case entered into by or on behalf of any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any of them in connection with any of the foregoing and any Contractual Obligation entered into in connection with any E-Systems or other Electronic Transmissions, (iii) any actual or prospective investigation, litigation or other proceeding, whether or not brought by any such Indemnitee or any of its Related Persons, any holders of securities or creditors (and including Attorneys Costs in any case, but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one U.S. counsel and one general Canadian counsel (and its extra-provincial agents, where required) to such Indemnified Persons taken as a whole and, solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel to all affected Indemnified Persons taken as a whole (and, if reasonably necessary, of one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction and of one special counsel to all such persons, taken as a whole and, solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, additional local and special counsel to all similarly affected Indemnified Persons taken as a whole), any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party, or any third person, whether or not any such Indemnitee, Related Person, holder, creditor, Credit Party, Affiliate of a Credit Party, or third person is a party thereto, and whether or not based on any securities or commercial law or regulation or any other Requirement of Law or theory thereof, including common law, equity, contract, tort or otherwise or (iv) any other act, event or transaction related, contemplated in or attendant to any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”); provided, however, that no Credit Party shall have any liability under this Section 9.6 to any Indemnitee with respect to any Indemnified Matter to the extent such liability has resulted primarily from (A) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order or (B) any dispute solely among Indemnitees, other than any claims against an Indemnitee in its capacity or in fulfilling its role Administrative Agent or Arranger or any similar role under this Agreement, and other than any claims arising out of any act or omission of Axiall or any of its Affiliates. Furthermore, each Borrower and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement waives and agrees not to assert against any Indemnitee, and shall cause each other Credit Party to waive and not assert against any Indemnitee, any right of contribution with respect to any Liabilities that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Related Person. Under no circumstances shall any Indemnitee be liable to any Credit Party or any Affiliate of a Credit Party for any punitive, exemplary, consequential or indirect damages which may be alleged in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, “Indemnified Matters” includes all Environmental Liabilities, including those arising from, or otherwise involving, any property of any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party or any actual, alleged or prospective damage to property or natural resources or harm or injury alleged to have resulted from any Release of Hazardous Materials on, upon or into such property or natural resource or any property on or contiguous to any Real Estate of any Credit Party or any Related Person or any Credit

Party, whether or not, with respect to any such Environmental Liabilities, any Indemnitee is a mortgagee pursuant to any leasehold mortgage, a mortgagee in possession, the successor-in-interest to any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party or the owner, lessee or operator of any property of any Related Person through any foreclosure action, in each case except to the extent such Environmental Liabilities (i) are incurred solely following foreclosure by Administrative Agent or following Administrative Agent or any Lender having become the successor-in-interest to any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party and (ii) are attributable solely to acts of such Indemnitee.

9.7 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. No Secured Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any property in favor of any Credit Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any Obligation. To the extent that any Secured Party receives a payment from a Borrower, from any other Credit Party, from the proceeds of the Collateral, from the exercise of its rights of setoff, any enforcement action or otherwise, and such payment is subsequently, in whole or in part, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not occurred.

9.8 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, that any assignment by any Lender shall be subject to the provisions of Section 9.9, and provided, further, that no Borrower may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and each Lender (and any purported assignment or transfer without such consents shall be null and void).

9.9 Assignments and Participations; Binding Effect.

(a) Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrowers, the other Credit Parties signatory hereto and Administrative Agent and when Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Lender and the initial L/C Issuer that such Lender or L/C Issuer has executed it. Thereafter, it shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, but only to the benefit of, the Borrowers, the other Credit Parties hereto (in each case except for Article VIII), Administrative Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer receiving the benefits of the Loan Documents and, to the extent provided in Section 8.11, each other Secured Party, each of the Indemnitees and, in each case, their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as expressly provided in any Loan Document (including in Section 8.9), none of the Borrowers, any other Credit Party, any L/C Issuer or Administrative Agent shall have the right to assign any rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein.

(b) Right to Assign. Each Lender may sell, transfer, negotiate or assign (a “Sale”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including all or a portion of its Commitments and its rights and obligations with respect to Loans and Letters of Credit) to (i) any existing Lender, (ii) any Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Lender or (iii) any other Person (other than a Credit Party or an Affiliate of a Credit Party) acceptable (which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to Administrative Agent and each L/C Issuer that is a Lender and, as long as no Event of Default is continuing, the Borrower Representative (which acceptances shall be deemed to have been given unless an objection is delivered to

Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after notice of a proposed sale is delivered to Borrower Representative) (it being understood that GE Capital may sell a portion of its Commitments to other entities for which GE Capital and its affiliates have agreed to service and manage those Commitments without any such acceptance from Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer or the Borrower Representative); provided, however, that (v) such Sales must be ratable among the obligations owing to and owed by such Lender with respect to the Revolving Loans, (w) for each Loan, the aggregate outstanding principal amount (determined as of the effective date of the applicable Assignment) of the Loans, Commitments and Letter of Credit Obligations subject to any such Sale shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, unless such Sale is made to an existing Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Lender, is of the assignor’s (together with its Affiliates and Approved Funds) entire interest in such facility or is made with the prior consent of the Borrower Representative (to the extent required) and Administrative Agent, (x) such Sales shall be effective only upon the acknowledgement in writing of such Sale by Administrative Agent, (y) interest accrued prior to and through the date of any such Sale may not be assigned, and (z) such Sales by Non-Funding Lenders shall be subject to Administrative Agent’s and the Borrower Representative’s prior written consent in all instances (such consent by the Borrower Representative not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Administrative Agent’s refusal to accept a Sale to (a) a holder of Subordinated Indebtedness or an Affiliate of such a holder or (b) any Person that cannot (either directly or through an Applicable Designee) lend to the Canadian Borrower, or the imposition of conditions or limitations (including limitations on voting) upon Sales to such Persons, in each case, shall not be deemed to be unreasonable. In no event shall any Sale of all or a portion of any Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder (including all or a portion of its Commitments and its rights and obligations with respect to Loans and Letters of Credit) to a Credit Party or an Affiliate of a Credit Party be permitted.

(c) Procedure. The parties to each Sale made in reliance on clause (b) above (other than those described in clause (e) or (f) below) shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment via an electronic settlement system designated by Administrative Agent (or, if previously agreed with Administrative Agent, via a manual execution and delivery of the Assignment) evidencing such Sale, together with any existing Note subject to such Sale (or any affidavit of loss therefor acceptable to Administrative Agent), any tax forms required to be delivered pursuant to Section 10.1 and payment of an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 to Administrative Agent, unless waived or reduced by Administrative Agent; provided, that (i) if a Sale by a Lender is made to an Affiliate or an Approved Fund of such assigning Lender, then no assignment fee shall be due in connection with such Sale, and (ii) if a Sale by a Lender is made to an assignee that is not an Affiliate or Approved Fund of such assignor Lender, and concurrently to one or more Affiliates or Approved Funds of such Assignee, then only one assignment fee of $3,500 shall be due in connection with such Sale (unless waived or reduced by Administrative Agent). Upon receipt of all the foregoing, and conditioned upon such receipt and, if such Assignment is made in accordance with clause (iii) of subsection 9.9(b), upon Administrative Agent (and the Borrower, if applicable) consenting to such Assignment, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment, Administrative Agent shall record or cause to be recorded in the Register the information contained in such Assignment.

(d) Effectiveness. Subject to the recording of an Assignment by Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to subsection 1.4(b), (i) the assignee thereunder shall become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations under the Loan Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment, shall have the

rights and obligations of a Lender, (ii) any applicable Note shall be transferred to such assignee through such entry and (iii) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment, relinquish its rights (except for those surviving the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations) and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

(e) Grant of Security Interests. In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 9.9, each Lender may grant a security interest in, or otherwise assign as collateral, any of its rights under this Agreement, whether now owned or hereafter acquired (including rights to payments of principal or interest on the Loans), to (A) any federal reserve bank (pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board) or other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, without notice to Administrative Agent or (B) any holder of, or trustee for the benefit of the holders of, such Lender’s Indebtedness or equity securities, by notice to Administrative Agent; provided, however, that no such holder or trustee, whether because of such grant or assignment or any foreclosure thereon (unless such foreclosure is made through an assignment in accordance with clause (b) above), shall be entitled to any rights of such Lender hereunder and no such Lender shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder.

(f) Participants and SPVs. In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 9.9, each Lender may, (x) with notice to Administrative Agent, grant to an SPV the option to make all or any part of any Loan that such Lender would otherwise be required to make hereunder (and the exercise of such option by such SPV and the making of Loans pursuant thereto shall satisfy the obligation of such Lender to make such Loans hereunder) and such SPV may assign to such Lender the right to receive payment with respect to any Obligation and (y) without notice to or consent from Administrative Agent or the Borrowers, sell participations to one or more Persons in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including all its rights and obligations with respect to the Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit); provided, however, that, whether as a result of any term of any Loan Document or of such grant or participation, (i) no such SPV or participant shall have a commitment, or be deemed to have made an offer to commit, to make Loans hereunder, and, except as provided in the applicable option agreement, none shall be liable for any obligation of such Lender hereunder, (ii) such Lender’s rights and obligations, and the rights and obligations of the Credit Parties and the Secured Parties towards such Lender, under any Loan Document shall remain unchanged and each other party hereto shall continue to deal solely with such Lender, which shall remain the holder of the Obligations in the Register, except that (A) each such participant and SPV shall be entitled to the benefit of Article X, but, with respect to Section 10.1, only to the extent such participant or SPV delivers the tax forms such Lender is required to collect pursuant to subsection 10.1(f) and then only to the extent of any amount to which such Lender would be entitled in the absence of any such grant or participation and (B) each such SPV may receive other payments that would otherwise be made to such Lender with respect to Loans funded by such SPV to the extent provided in the applicable option agreement and set forth in a notice provided to Administrative Agent by such SPV and such Lender, provided, however, that in no case (including pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above) shall an SPV or participant have the right to enforce any of the terms of any Loan Document, and (iii) the consent of such SPV or participant shall not be required (either directly, as a restraint on such Lender’s ability to consent hereunder or otherwise) for any amendments, waivers or consents with respect to any Loan

Document or to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights such Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including the right to enforce or direct enforcement of the Obligations), except for those described in clauses (ii) and (iii) of subsection 9.1(a) with respect to amounts, or dates fixed for payment of amounts, to which such participant or SPV would otherwise be entitled and, in the case of participants, except for those described in clause (vi) of subsection 9.1(a). No party hereto shall institute (and each Borrower shall cause each other Credit Party not to institute) against any SPV grantee of an option pursuant to this clause (f) any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, liquidation or similar proceeding, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper of such SPV; provided, however, that each Lender having designated an SPV as such agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against any Liability that may be incurred by, or asserted against, such Indemnitee as a result of failing to institute such proceeding (including a failure to get reimbursed by such SPV for any such Liability). The agreement in the preceding sentence shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations.

9.10 Non-Public Information; Confidentiality.

(a) Non-Public Information. Administrative Agent, each Lender and L/C Issuer acknowledges and agrees that it may receive material non-public information (“MNPI”) hereunder concerning the Credit Parties and their Affiliates and agrees to use such information in compliance with all relevant policies, procedures and applicable Requirements of Laws (including United States federal and state security laws and regulations).

(b) Confidential Information. Each Lender, L/C Issuer and each Agent agrees to use all reasonable efforts to maintain, in accordance with its customary practices, the confidentiality of information obtained by it pursuant to any Loan Document and designated in writing by any Credit Party as confidential, except that such information may be disclosed (i) with the Borrower Representative’s consent, (ii) to Related Persons of such Lender, L/C Issuer or Agent, as the case may be, or to any Person that any L/C Issuer causes to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, that are advised of the confidential nature of such information, are instructed to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms hereof and such Person agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions set forth herein, (iii) to the extent such information presently is or hereafter becomes (A) publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.10 or (B) available to such Lender, L/C Issuer or Agent or any of their Related Persons, as the case may be, from a source (other than any Credit Party) not known by them to be subject to disclosure restrictions, (iv) to the extent disclosure is required by applicable Requirements of Law or other legal process or requested or demanded by any Governmental Authority, (v) to the extent necessary or customary for inclusion in league table measurements, (vi) (A) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, any examiner or any nationally recognized rating agency or (B) otherwise to the extent consisting of general portfolio information that does not identify Credit Parties, (vii) to current or prospective assignees, SPVs (including the investors or prospective investors therein) or participants, direct or contractual counterparties to any Secured Rate Contracts and to their respective Related Persons, in each case to the extent such assignees, investors, participants, counterparties or Related Persons agree to be bound by provisions substantially similar to the provisions of this Section 9.10 (and such Person may disclose information to their respective Related Persons in accordance with clause (ii) above), (viii) to any other party hereto, and (ix) in connection with the exercise or enforcement of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, in connection with any litigation or other proceeding to which such Lender, L/C Issuer or Agent or any of their Related Persons is a party

or bound, or to the extent necessary to respond to public statements or disclosures by Credit Parties or their Related Persons referring to a Lender, L/C Issuer or Agent or any of their Related Persons. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Section 9.10 and those of any other Contractual Obligation entered into with any Credit Party (whether or not a Loan Document), the terms of this Section 9.10 shall govern.

(c) Tombstones. Each Credit Party consents to the publication by any Agent or any Lender of advertising material relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement using any Credit Party’s name, product photographs, logo or trademark. Such Agent or such Lender shall provide a draft of any advertising material to Borrower Representative for review and comment prior to the publication thereof.

(d) Press Release and Related Matters. No Credit Party shall, and no Credit Party shall permit any of its Affiliates to, issue any press release or other public disclosure (other than any document filed with any Governmental Authority relating to a public offering of securities of any Credit Party) using the name, logo or otherwise referring to GE Capital or of any of its Affiliates, the Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated therein to which Administrative Agent is party without the prior consent of GE Capital except to the extent required to do so under applicable Requirements of Law (including in any document filed with any Governmental Authority describing the financing provided hereunder).

(e) Distribution of Materials to Lenders and L/C Issuers. The Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that the Loan Documents and all reports, notices, communications and other information or materials provided or delivered by, or on behalf of, the Credit Parties hereunder (collectively, the “Borrower Materials”) may be disseminated by, or on behalf of, Administrative Agent, and made available, to the Lenders and the L/C Issuers by posting such Borrower Materials on an E-System. The Credit Parties authorize Administrative Agent to download copies of their logos from its website and post copies thereof on an E-System.

The Credit Parties hereby agree that if either they, any parent company or any Subsidiary of the Credit Parties has publicly traded equity or debt securities in the U.S., they shall (and shall cause such parent company or Subsidiary, as the case may be, to) (i) identify in writing, and (ii) to the extent reasonably practicable, clearly and conspicuously xxxx such Borrower Materials that contain only information that is publicly available or that is not material for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws as “PUBLIC”. The Credit Parties agree that by identifying such Borrower Materials as “PUBLIC” or publicly filing such Borrower Materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission, then Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall be entitled to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any MNPI for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws. The Credit Parties further represent, warrant, acknowledge and agree that the following documents and materials shall be deemed to be PUBLIC, whether or not so marked, and do not contain any MNPI: (A) the Loan Documents, including the schedules and exhibits attached thereto, and (B) administrative materials of a customary nature prepared by the Credit Parties or Administrative Agent (including, Notices of Borrowing, Notices of Conversion/Continuation, L/C Requests, Swingline requests and any similar requests or notices posted on or through an E-System).

distribution of evaluation materials that do not contain MNPI and represent that no MNPI is contained therein.

(g) Participant Register. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

9.11 Set-off; Sharing of Payments.

(a) Right of Setoff. Each of Administrative Agent, each Lender, each L/C Issuer and each Affiliate (including each branch office thereof) of any of them is hereby authorized, without notice or demand (each of which is hereby waived by each Credit Party), at any time and from time to time during the continuance of any Event of Default and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (whether general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness, claims or other obligations at any time owing by Administrative Agent, such Lender, such L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers or any other Credit Party against any Obligation of any Credit Party now or hereafter existing, whether or not any demand was made under any Loan Document with respect to such Obligation and even though such Obligation may be unmatured. Each of Administrative Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees promptly to notify the Borrower Representative and Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender or its Affiliates; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights under this Section 9.11 are in addition to any other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the L/C Issuer, their Affiliates and the other Secured Parties, may have.

(b) Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender (other than any L/C Issuer, solely in its capacity as L/C Issuer), directly or through an Affiliate or branch office thereof, obtains any payment of any Obligation of any Credit Party (whether voluntary, involuntary or through the exercise of any right of setoff or the receipt of any Collateral or “proceeds” (as defined under the applicable UCC or the applicable PPSA in the case of Canadian Collateral) of Collateral) other than pursuant to Section 9.9 or Article X and such payment exceeds the amount such Lender would have been entitled to receive if all payments had gone to, and been distributed by, Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, such Lender shall purchase for cash from other Lenders such participations in their Obligations as necessary for such Lender to share such excess payment with such Lenders to ensure such payment is

101

applied as though it had been received by Administrative Agent and applied in accordance with this Agreement (or, if such application would then be at the discretion of the Borrowers, applied to repay the Obligations in accordance herewith); provided, however, that (a) if such payment is rescinded or otherwise recovered from such Lender in whole or in part, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price therefor shall be returned to such Lender without interest and (b) such Lender shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be able to exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the applicable Credit Party in the amount of such participation. If a Non-Funding Lender receives any such payment as described in the previous sentence, such Lender shall turn over such payments to Administrative Agent in an amount that would satisfy the cash collateral requirements set forth in subsection 1.11(b).

9.12 Counterparts; Facsimile Signature. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or Electronic Transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

9.13 Severability. The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder.

9.14 Captions. The captions and headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

9.15 Independence of Provisions. The parties hereto acknowledge that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may use several different limitations, tests or measurements to regulate the same or similar matters, and that such limitations, tests and measurements are cumulative and must each be performed, except as expressly stated to the contrary in this Agreement.

9.16 Interpretation. This Agreement is the result of negotiations among and has been reviewed by counsel to Credit Parties, Administrative Agent, each Lender and other parties hereto, and is the product of all parties hereto. Accordingly, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be construed against the Lenders or Administrative Agent merely because of Administrative Agent’s or Lenders’ involvement in the preparation of such documents and agreements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the parties hereto has had the advice of counsel with respect to Sections 9.18 and 9.19.

9.17 No Third Parties Benefited. This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit of the Borrowers, the Lenders, the L/C Issuers party hereto, the Agents and, subject to the provisions of Section 8.11, each other Secured Party, and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. No Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to any Person not a party to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

102

9.18 Governing Law and Jurisdiction.

(a) Governing Law. The laws of the State of New York shall govern all matters arising out of, in connection with or relating to this Agreement, including, without limitation, its validity, interpretation, construction, performance and enforcement.

(b) Submission to Jurisdiction. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to any Loan Document shall be brought exclusively in the courts of the State of New York located in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, or of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Borrower and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement hereby accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts; provided, that nothing in this Agreement shall limit the right of Administrative Agent to commence any proceeding in the federal or state courts of any other jurisdiction to the extent Administrative Agent determines that such action is necessary or appropriate to exercise its rights or remedies under the Loan Documents. The parties hereto (and, to the extent set forth in any other Loan Document, each other Credit Party) hereby irrevocably waive any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens, that any of them may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such action or proceeding in such jurisdictions.

(c) Service of Process. Each Credit Party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and other documents and other service of process of any kind and consents to such service in any suit, action or proceeding brought in the United States of America or Canada with respect to or otherwise arising out of or in connection with any Loan Document by any means permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, including by the mailing thereof (by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid) to the address of the Borrowers specified herein (and shall be effective when such mailing shall be effective, as provided therein). Each Credit Party agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Each Canadian Credit Party hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and authorizes Axiall (in such capacity, the “Process Agent”) as its agent to receive on behalf of such Canadian Credit Party and its property service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any such action or proceeding. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to such Canadian Credit Party in care of the Process Agent, and such Canadian Credit Party hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Process Agent to accept such service on its behalf. Each Canadian Credit Party covenants and agrees that it shall take any and all reasonable action, including the execution and filing of any and all documents, that may be necessary to continue the designation, appointment and authorization of the Process Agent above in full force and effect, and to cause the Process Agent to continue to act in such capacity.

9.19 Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HERETO, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT,

103

OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH OR RELATING TO, THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE.

9.20 Entire Agreement; Release; Survival.

(a) THE LOAN DOCUMENTS EMBODY THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES AND SUPERSEDE ALL PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND UNDERSTANDINGS RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER THEREOF AND ANY PRIOR LETTER OF INTEREST, COMMITMENT LETTER, CONFIDENTIALITY AND SIMILAR AGREEMENTS INVOLVING ANY CREDIT PARTY AND ANY LENDER OR ANY L/C ISSUER OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES RELATING TO A FINANCING OF SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM, PURPOSE OR EFFECT OTHER THAN THE FEE LETTER. IN THE EVENT OF ANY CONFLICT BETWEEN THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL GOVERN (UNLESS SUCH TERMS OF SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS ARE NECESSARY TO COMPLY WITH APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS OF LAW, IN WHICH CASE SUCH TERMS SHALL GOVERN TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO COMPLY THEREWITH).

(b) Execution of this Agreement by the Credit Parties constitutes a full, complete and irrevocable release of any and all claims which each Credit Party may have at law or in equity in respect of all prior discussions and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In no event shall any Indemnitee be liable on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings). Each of each Borrower and each other Credit Party signatory hereto hereby waives, releases and agrees (and shall cause each other Credit Party to waive, release and agree) not to xxx upon any such claim for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

(c) (i) Any indemnification or other protection provided to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 9.20, Sections 9.5 (Costs and Expenses) and 9.6 (Indemnity) and Articles VIII (Administrative Agent) and X (Taxes, Yield Protection and Illegality), and (ii) the provisions of Section 8.1 of the U.S. Revolving Guaranty and Security Agreement, in each case, shall (x) survive the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of all other Obligations and (y) with respect to clause (i) above, inure to the benefit of any Person that at any time held a right thereunder (as an Indemnitee or otherwise) and, thereafter, its successors and permitted assigns.

9.21 Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to the Patriot Act hereby notifies the Credit Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Credit Party, which information includes the name and address of each Credit Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify each Credit Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.

9.22 Replacement of Lender. Within forty-five days after: (i) receipt by the Borrower Representative of written notice and demand from any Lender that is not Administrative Agent or

104

an Affiliate of Administrative Agent (an “Affected Lender”) for payment of indemnified taxes or additional costs as provided in Sections 10.1, 10.3 and/or 10.6; or (ii) any failure by any Lender (other than Administrative Agent) to consent to a requested amendment, waiver or modification to any Loan Document in which Required Lenders have already consented to such amendment, waiver or modification but the consent of each Lender (or each Lender directly affected thereby, as applicable) is required with respect thereto, the Borrowers may, at their option, notify Administrative Agent and such Affected Lender or such non-consenting Lender, as the case may be, of the Borrowers’ intention to obtain, at the Borrowers’ expense, a replacement Lender (“Replacement Lender”) for such Affected Lender or such non-consenting Lender, as the case may be, which Replacement Lender shall be reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent. In the event the Borrowers obtain a Replacement Lender within sixty (60) days following notice of its intention to do so, the Affected Lender or non-consenting Lender, as the case may be, shall sell and assign its Loans and Commitments to such Replacement Lender, at par, provided that the Borrowers have reimbursed such Affected Lender for its increased costs for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this Agreement through the date of such sale and assignment. In the event that a replaced Lender does not execute an Assignment pursuant to Section 9.9 within five (5) Business Days after receipt by such replaced Lender of notice of replacement pursuant to this Section 9.22 and presentation to such replaced Lender of an Assignment evidencing an assignment pursuant to this Section 9.22, the Borrowers shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute such an Assignment on behalf of such replaced Lender, and any such Assignment so executed by the Borrowers, the Replacement Lender and Administrative Agent, shall be effective for purposes of this Section 9.22 and Section 9.9. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to a Lender that is a Non-Funding Lender, the Borrowers or Administrative Agent may obtain a Replacement Lender and execute an Assignment on behalf of such Non-Funding Lender at any time and without prior notice to such Non-Funding Lender and cause its Loans and Commitments to be sold and assigned at par. Upon any such assignment and payment and compliance with the other provisions of Section 9.9, such replaced Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided, any rights of such replaced Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive.

9.23 [Reserved].

9.24 Creditor-Debtor Relationship. The relationship between Administrative Agent, each Lender and the L/C Issuer, on the one hand, and the Credit Parties, on the other hand, is solely that of creditor and debtor. No Secured Party has any fiduciary relationship or duty to any Credit Party arising out of or in connection with, and there is no agency, tenancy or joint venture relationship between the Secured Parties and the Credit Parties by virtue of, any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein.

9.25 Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by Administrative Agent or such Lender, as

105

the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to Administrative Agent or any Lender from any Borrower in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to Administrative Agent or any Lender in such currency, Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

9.26 Actions in Concert. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, each Lender hereby agrees with each other Lender that no Lender shall take any action to protect or enforce its rights against any Credit Party arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including exercising any rights of setoff) without first obtaining the prior written consent of Administrative Agent or Required Lenders, it being the intent of Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of Administrative Agent or Required Lenders.

ARTICLE X.
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

10.1 Taxes.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 10.1, each payment by any Credit Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings imposed by any Governmental Authority and all liabilities with respect thereto (and without deduction for any of them) other than Excluded Taxes (collectively, but excluding Excluded Taxes, the “Taxes”).

(b) If any Taxes shall be required by law to be deducted from or in respect of any amount payable by any Credit Party under any Loan Document to any Secured Party (i) such amount shall be increased as necessary to ensure that, after all required deductions for Taxes are made (including deductions applicable to any increases to any amount under this Section 10.1), such Secured Party receives the amount it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the relevant Credit Party shall make such deductions, (iii) the relevant Credit Party shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law and (iv) within 30 days after such payment is made, the relevant Credit Party shall deliver to Administrative Agent an original or certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent; provided, however, that no such increase shall be made with respect to, and no Credit Party shall be required to indemnify any Secured Party pursuant to clause (d) below for, (x) withholding taxes to the extent that the obligation to withhold amounts existed on the date that such Person became a “Secured Party” under this Agreement in the capacity under which such Person makes a claim under this clause (b) or clause (d) below, designates a new Lending Office or experiences a change in circumstances (other than a change in a Requirement of Law), except in each case to the extent such Person is a direct or indirect assignee (other than pursuant

106

to Section 9.22) of any other Secured Party that was entitled, at the time the assignment to such Person became effective, or such Secured Party was entitled at the time of designation of a new Lending Office or change in circumstances, to receive additional amounts under this clause (b) or clause (d) below, or (y) any United States backup withholding tax required by the Code to be withheld from amounts payable to a Secured Party that is subject to backup withholding due to (A) notified payee underreporting of reportable interest or dividend payments or other reportable payments or (B) the IRS notifying Administrative Agent or Borrower that the furnished taxpayer identification number is incorrect.

(c) In addition, the Applicable Borrower agrees to pay, and authorize Administrative Agent to pay in their name, any stamp, documentary, excise or property tax, charges or similar levies imposed by any applicable Requirement of Law or Governmental Authority and all Liabilities with respect thereto (including by reason of any delay in payment thereof), in each case arising from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein (collectively, “Other Taxes”). The Swingline Lender may, without any need for notice, demand or consent from the Applicable Borrower or the Borrower Representative, by making funds available to Administrative Agent in the amount equal to any such payment, make a Swing Loan to the Applicable Borrower in such amount, the proceeds of which shall be used by Administrative Agent in whole to make such payment. Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Other Taxes by any Credit Party, the Applicable Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.2, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.

(d) The Applicable Borrower shall reimburse and indemnify, within 30 days after receipt of demand therefor (with copy to Administrative Agent), each Secured Party for all Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 10.1) paid by such Secured Party and any Liabilities arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. A certificate of the Secured Party (or of Administrative Agent on behalf of such Secured Party) claiming any compensation under this clause (d), setting forth the amounts to be paid thereunder and delivered to the Borrower Representative with copy to Administrative Agent, shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest error. In determining such amount, Administrative Agent and such Secured Party may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

(e) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 10.1 shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and Requirements of Law) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office if such a change would reduce any such additional amounts (or any similar amount that may thereafter accrue) and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(f) (i) Each Non-U.S. Lender Party that, at any of the following times, is entitled to an exemption from United States withholding tax or is subject to such withholding tax at a reduced rate under an applicable tax treaty, shall (w) on or prior to the date such Non-U.S. Lender Party becomes a “Non-U.S. Lender Party” hereunder, (x) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this clause (i) and (z) from time to time if requested by the Borrower Representative or

107

Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender), provide Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender) with two completed and signed originals of each of the following, as applicable: (A) Forms W-8ECI (claiming exemption from U.S. withholding tax because the income is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business), W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding tax under an income tax treaty) and/or W-8IMY (together with appropriate forms, certifications and supporting statements) or any successor forms, (B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender Party claiming exemption under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (claiming exemption from U.S. withholding tax under the portfolio interest exemption) or any successor form and a certificate in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent that such Non-U.S. Lender Party is not (1) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Applicable Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (C) any other applicable document prescribed by the IRS certifying as to the entitlement of such Non-U.S. Lender Party to such exemption from United States withholding tax or reduced rate with respect to all payments to be made to such Non-U.S. Lender Party under the Loan Documents. Unless the Borrower Representative and Administrative Agent have received forms or other documents satisfactory to them indicating that payments under any Loan Document to or for a Non-U.S. Lender Party are not subject to United States withholding tax or are subject to such tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, the Credit Parties and Administrative Agent shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by applicable Requirements of Law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate.

(ii) Each U.S. Lender Party (other than a U.S. Lender Party that is an exempt recipient under Treasury Regulation § 1.6049-4(c)(1)(ii)) shall (A) on or prior to the date such U.S. Lender Party becomes a “U.S. Lender Party” hereunder, (B) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (C) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this clause (f) and (D) from time to time if requested by the Borrower Representative or Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender), provide Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender) with two completed originals of Form W-9 (certifying that such U.S. Lender Party is entitled to an exemption from U.S. backup withholding tax) or any successor form.

(iii) Each Lender having sold a participation in any of its Obligations or identified an SPV as such to Administrative Agent shall collect from such participant or SPV the documents described in this clause (f) and provide them to Administrative Agent.

(g) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Axiall and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Axiall or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Axiall or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Axiall and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to

108

determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(h) If any Secured Party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified hereunder (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 10.1), it shall pay to the applicable Credit Party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made hereunder with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such Secured Party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such Credit Party, upon the request of such Secured Party, shall repay to such Secured Party the amount paid over pursuant to this clause (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such Secured Party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (h), in no event will such Secured Party be required to pay any amount to a Credit Party pursuant to this clause (h) the payment of which would place such Secured Party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Secured Party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This clause (h) shall not be construed to require any Secured Party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Credit Party or any other Person.

10.2 Illegality. If after the date hereof (a) any Lender shall determine that the introduction of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or administration thereof, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Lending Office to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans or (b) any Lender determines in good faith (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that (i) it has become impracticable as a result of a circumstance that adversely affects the London interbank market or the position of such Lender in such market to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, then, in each case, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers through Administrative Agent, the obligation of that Lender to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender shall have notified Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exists.

(a) Subject to clause (c) below, if any Lender shall determine that it is unlawful to maintain any LIBOR Rate Loan, the Applicable Borrower shall prepay in full all LIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans, together with any amounts required to be paid in connection therewith pursuant to Section 10.4.

(b) If the obligation of any Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans has been terminated, the Borrower Representative may elect, by giving notice to such Lender through Administrative Agent that all Loans which would otherwise be made by any such Lender

109

as LIBOR Rate Loans shall be instead Base Rate Loans or Canadian Index Rate Loans, as applicable.

(c) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 10.2 shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its applicable lending office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that would be payable or may thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

10.3 Increased Costs and Reduction of Return.

(a) If any Lender or L/C Issuer shall reasonably determine that either (i) the introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), in the case of either clause (i) or (ii) subsequent to the date hereof, (A) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement pursuant to Section 10.6) or L/C Issuer; (B) subject any Lender or any L/C Issuer to any tax of any kind whatsoever other than any Excluded Taxes with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any LIBOR Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or such L/C Issuer in respect thereof (notwithstanding the foregoing, Taxes, Other Taxes and Excluded Taxes are covered exclusively by Section 10.1); or (C) impose on any Lender, any L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement, LIBOR Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein, and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or such L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received by such Lender or such L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then the applicable Borrower shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, within thirty (30) days of demand therefor by such Lender or L/C Issuer (with a copy of such demand to Administrative Agent), pay to Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender or L/C Issuer, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer for such increased costs; provided, that the applicable Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to this subsection 10.3(a) for any increased costs incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or L/C Issuer notifies the Borrower Representative, in writing of the increased costs and of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation thereof; provided, further, that if the circumstance giving rise to such increased costs is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(b) If any Lender or L/C Issuer shall have determined that:

(i) the introduction of any Capital Adequacy Regulation;

(ii) any change in any Capital Adequacy Regulation;

110

(iii) any change in the interpretation or administration of any Capital Adequacy Regulation by any central bank or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof; or

(iv) compliance by such Lender or L/C Issuer (or its Lending Office) or any entity controlling the Lender or L/C Issuer, with any Capital Adequacy Regulation;

affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or L/C Issuer or any entity controlling such Lender or L/C Issuer and (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such entities’ policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s desired return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a consequence of its Commitment(s), loans, credits or obligations under this Agreement, then, within thirty (30) days of demand of such Lender or L/C Issuer (with a copy to Administrative Agent), the Applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender or L/C Issuer, from time to time as specified by such Lender or L/C Issuer, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer (or the entity controlling the Lender or L/C Issuer) for such increase; provided, that the Applicable Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to this subsection 10.3(b) for any amounts incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or L/C Issuer notifies the Borrower Representative, in writing of the amounts and of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation thereof; provided, further, that if the event giving rise to such increase is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

10.4 Funding Losses. Each Borrower agrees to reimburse each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of:

(a) the failure of such Borrower to make any payment or mandatory prepayment of principal of any LIBOR Rate Loan (including payments made after any acceleration thereof);

(b) the failure of such Borrower to borrow, continue or convert a Loan after the Borrower Representative has given (or is deemed to have given) a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation;

(c) the failure of such Borrower to make any prepayment after the Borrower Representative has given a notice in accordance with Section 1.7;

(d) the prepayment (including pursuant to Section 1.8) of a LIBOR Rate Loan on a day which is not the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto; or

111

(e) the conversion pursuant to Section 1.6 of any LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan or Canadian Index Rate Loan, as applicable, on a day that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period;

including any such loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain its LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. Solely for purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Applicable Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 10.4 and under subsection 10.3(a): each LIBOR Rate Loan made by a Lender (and each related reserve, special deposit or similar requirement) shall be conclusively deemed to have been funded at the LIBOR used in determining the interest rate for such LIBOR Rate Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the interbank Eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such LIBOR Rate Loan is in fact so funded.

10.5 Inability to Determine Rates. If Administrative Agent shall have determined in good faith that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan or that the LIBOR applicable pursuant to subsection 1.3(a) for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding or maintaining such Loan, Administrative Agent will forthwith give notice of such determination to the Borrower Representative and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder shall be suspended until Administrative Agent revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower Representative may revoke any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation then submitted by it. If the Borrower Representative does not revoke such notice, the Lenders shall make, convert or continue the Loans, as proposed by the Borrower Representative, in the amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by the Borrower Representative, but such Loans shall be made, converted or continued as Base Rate Loans or Canadian Index Rate Loans, as applicable.

10.6 Reserves on LIBOR Rate Loans. The Applicable Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required under regulations of the Federal Reserve Board to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional costs on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Rate Loan equal to actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan provided the Borrower Representative shall have received at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice (with a copy to Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from the Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be payable fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice.

10.7 Certificates of Lenders. Any Lender claiming reimbursement or compensation pursuant to this Article X shall deliver to the Borrower Representative (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to such Lender hereunder and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers in the absence of manifest error.

(b) The obligations of each U.S. Borrower under this Section 11.6 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any U.S. Borrower. The joint and several liability of each U.S. Borrower hereunder shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any absorption, merger, amalgamation or any other change whatsoever in the name, membership, constitution or place of formation of any U.S. Borrower or any of the Revolving Lenders.

(c) The provisions of this Section 11.6 hereof are made for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders and the Agents and their successors and assigns and may be enforced by them from time to time against any U.S. Borrower as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of Administrative Agent or any Revolving Lender first to marshal any of its claims or to exercise any of its rights against the other U.S. Borrower or to exhaust any remedies available to it against the other U.S. Borrower or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by Administrative Agent or any Revolving Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any U.S. Borrower, or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 11.6 hereof will forthwith be reinstated and in effect as though such payment had not been made.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, to the extent the obligations of a U.S. Borrower shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers) then the obligations of such U.S. Borrower hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount that is permissible under applicable law (whether federal, state or provincial and including, without limitation, the Bankruptcy Code).

(e) With respect to the Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of the U.S. Borrowers hereunder with respect to Loans, Letters of Credit or other extensions of credit made to the other U.S. Borrower hereunder, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each U.S. Borrower waives, until the payment in full in cash of all Obligations, any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which Administrative Agent or any Revolving Lender now has or may hereafter have against any U.S. Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to Administrative Agent or any Revolving Lender. Any claim which any U.S. Borrower may have against the other U.S. Borrower with respect to any payments to Administrative Agent or the Revolving Lenders hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and for so long as the same is continuing, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders may proceed directly and at once, without notice (to the extent notice is waivable under applicable law), against (i) with respect to Obligations of each U.S. Borrower, either or both of them or (ii) with respect to Obligations of any U.S. Borrower, to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of the applicable Obligations, without first proceeding against the other U.S. Borrower or any other Person, or against any security or collateral for the Obligations. Each U.S. Borrower consents and agrees

155

that Administrative Agent and Revolving Lenders shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any U.S. Borrower or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.

11.7 Pro Forma Calculations.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated in the manner prescribed by this Section 11.7; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11.7, when calculating the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for purposes of determining actual compliance (and not compliance on a pro forma basis) with Section 6.1, the events described in this Section 11.7 that occurred subsequent to the end of the applicable period shall not be given pro forma effect.

(b) For purposes of calculating the Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, any (x) Permitted Acquisition, (y) acquisition of assets which constitutes all or substantially all of a company, division, operating unit, segment, business, line of business or chemicals generation or production facility or (z) Disposition (each a “Subject Transaction”) (and the incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness in connection therewith) that have been made (i) during the applicable testing period or (ii) subsequent to such testing period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Subject Transactions (and any increase or decrease in Consolidated EBITDA and the component financial definitions used therein attributable to any Subject Transaction) had occurred on the first day of the applicable testing period. If since the beginning of any applicable testing period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into a Credit Party or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such testing period shall have made any Subject Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section 11.7, then the Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated to give pro forma effect thereto in accordance with this Section 11.7.

(c) In the event that any Credit Party or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries incurs (including by assumption or guarantees) or repays (including by redemption, repayment, retirement or extinguishment) any Indebtedness included in the calculations of the Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, as the case may be (in each case, other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid under any revolving credit facility in the ordinary course of business for working capital purposes), (i) during the applicable testing period or (ii) subsequent to the end of the applicable testing period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then the Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence or repayment of Indebtedness, to the extent required, as if the same had occurred on the last day of the applicable testing period.

(d) Whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a Subject Transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be made on a pro forma basis (including pro forma adjustments (solely to the extent that such adjustments are (A) made consistent with the definition of Consolidated EBITDA and (B) (x) are of the type that would be permitted pursuant to Article XI of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended) and as interpreted by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission or (y) are reasonably consistent with the purposes of such Regulation S-X as determined in good faith by Axiall and reasonably acceptable to

156

Administrative Agent)) using, if available, the historical financial statements of any business so acquired or to be acquired or sold or to be sold and the consolidated financial statements of Axiall and its Subsidiaries which shall be reformulated as if such Subject Transaction, and any Indebtedness incurred or repaid in connection therewith, had been consummated or incurred or repaid at the beginning of such period (and assuming that such Indebtedness bears interest during any portion of the applicable measurement period prior to the relevant acquisition at the weighted average of the interest rates applicable to outstanding Loans incurred during such period).

11.8 Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to deliver any notices or other documentation to the Notes Collateral Agent pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement, on its behalf, to evidence the amendment and restatement of the Prior ABL Credit Agreement as this Agreement.

11.9 Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Obligor to honor all of its payment obligations under the U.S. Revolving Guaranty and Security Agreement in respect of Swap Obligations under any Secured Rate Contract (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 11.9 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 13.19, or otherwise under the U.S. Revolving Guaranty and Security Agreement, voidable under applicable requirements of law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 11.9 shall remain in full force and effect until the guarantees in respect of Swap Obligations under each Secured Rate Contract have been discharged, or otherwise released or terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 11.9 constitute, and this Section 11.9 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Obligor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.
