TERM LOAN AGREEMENT

THIS TERM LOAN AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), is entered into as of July 12, 2013, by and among:

(i) the lenders identified on the signature pages hereof (each of such lenders, together with their respective successors and permitted assigns, are referred to hereinafter as a “Lender,” as that term is hereinafter further defined);

(ii) CORTLAND CAPITAL MARKET SERVICES LLC, as agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, “Agent”);

(iii) COLT DEFENSE LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), COLT FINANCE CORP., a Delaware corporation (“Colt Finance”), NEW COLT ACQUISITION CORP., a Delaware corporation (“Acquisition Sub”), which on the Closing Date shall be merged with and into, NEW COLT HOLDING CORP., a Delaware corporation (“New Colt”), with New Colt surviving the Merger (as hereinafter defined), COLT’S MANUFACTURING COMPANY, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Colt’s Manufacturing”), and COLT CANADA CORPORATION, a Nova Scotia unlimited company (“Colt Canada”, and together with Parent, Colt Finance, Acquisition Sub, New Colt and Colt’s Manufacturing, each individually, a “Borrower” and, collectively, “Borrowers”); and

(v) COLT DEFENSE TECHNICAL SERVICES LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“CDTS”), and COLT INTERNATIONAL COOPERATIEF U.A., a cooperative organized under the laws of the Netherlands registered with the trade register of the Chamber of Commerce in the Netherlands under number 56651317 (“Colt Netherlands” and, together with CDTS and any other Guarantor party hereto from time to time, each individually a “Guarantor” and, collectively, “Guarantors”).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Target Acquisition Agreement (as hereinafter defined), Acquisition Sub shall merge with and into New Colt, with New Colt as the surviving entity and, upon consummation of the Merger, Parent shall own 100% of the Equity Interests of New Colt;

WHEREAS, upon consummation of the Merger, New Colt will assume all of the obligations of Acquisition Sub under this Agreement and the Loan Documents;

WHEREAS, in connection with the Merger, the Loan Parties shall enter into the Post-Closing Restructuring Transactions (as hereinafter defined), pursuant to which the corporate and capital structure of the Loan Parties shall be restructured, as more fully described in the Post-Closing Restructuring Certificate;

WHEREAS, the Loan Parties shall enter into an amendment or amendments to the ABL Loan Documents (as hereinafter defined) to, among other things, permit the Transactions, including the execution of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby;

WHEREAS, Borrowers have requested that Agent and the Lenders provide a term loan facility to Borrowers to, among other things, finance the merger and Parent’s acquisition of New Colt in connection therewith; and

WHEREAS, Agent and the Lenders have indicated their willingness to provide such financing on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

The parties agree as follows:

1.	DEFINITIONS AND CONSTRUCTION.

1.1 Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings specified therefor on Schedule 1.1.

1.2 Accounting Terms. Any accounting term used in this Agreement shall have, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, the meaning customarily given in accordance with GAAP, and all financial computations hereunder shall be computed unless otherwise specifically provided herein, in accordance with GAAP as consistently applied and using the same method for inventory valuation as used in the preparation of the financial statements of Parent most recently received by Agent prior to the date hereof; provided, however, that (a) upon the adoption by Parent of IFRS as required by Parent’s independent certified public accountants and notification by Administrative Borrower to Agent of such adoption (the “IFRS Adoption”) or (b) if Administrative Borrower notifies Agent that Borrowers request an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any Accounting Change occurring after the Closing Date or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if Agent notifies Administrative Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such the IFRS Adoption or Accounting Change or in the application thereof, then Agent and Borrowers agree that they will negotiate in good faith amendments to the provisions of this Agreement that are directly affected by such IFRS Adoption or Accounting Change with the intent of having the respective positions of the Lenders and Borrowers after such IFRS Adoption or Accounting Change conform as nearly as possible to their respective positions as of the date of this Agreement and, until any such amendments have been agreed upon and agreed to by the Required Lenders, the provisions in this Agreement, including the covenants, shall be calculated in accordance with GAAP as in effect, and as applied by Parent and its Subsidiaries as if no such IFRS Adoption or Accounting Change had occurred. In the case of the IFRS Adoption or the Accounting Change until such covenants are amended in a manner satisfactory to Parent, Agent and the Required Lenders (i) all calculations made for the purpose of determining compliance with the financial ratios and financial covenants contained herein shall be made on a basis consistent with GAAP in existence immediately prior to such adoption and (ii) financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.1 shall be accompanied by a reconciliation showing the adjustments made to calculate such financial ratios and financial covenants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all financial statements delivered hereunder shall be prepared, and all financial covenants contained herein shall be calculated, without giving effect to any election under the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159 (or any similar accounting principle) permitting a Person to value its financial liabilities or Indebtedness at the fair value thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in GAAP or any interpretations or other pronouncements by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or otherwise, the term “unqualified opinion” as used herein to refer to opinions or reports provided by accountants shall mean an opinion or report that does not include any qualification, explanation, supplemental comment or other comment concerning the ability of the applicable person to continue as a going concern or the scope of the audit. When used herein, the term “financial statements” shall include the notes and schedules thereto. Whenever the term “Parent” or “Borrowers” is used in respect of a financial covenant or a related definition, it shall be understood to mean Parent or Borrowers and their Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, unless the context clearly requires otherwise. For purposes of calculations pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, GAAP will be deemed to treat operating leases in a manner consistent with the current treatment under GAAP as in effect on the Closing Date, notwithstanding any modification or interpretive changes thereto that may occur hereafter.

-2-

1.3 Code. Any terms used in this Agreement that are defined in the Code shall be construed and defined as set forth in the Code unless otherwise defined herein and any terms used in this Agreement that are defined in the PPSA and pertaining to Collateral consisting of assets of any Canadian Loan Party shall be construed and defined as set forth in the PPSA unless otherwise defined herein; provided, however, that to the extent that the Code is used to define any term herein and such term is defined differently in different Articles of the Code, the definition of such term contained in Article 9 of the Code shall govern.

1.4 Construction. Unless the context of this Agreement or any other Loan Document clearly requires otherwise, references to the plural include the singular, references to the singular include the plural, the terms “includes” and “including” are not limiting, and the term “or” has, except where otherwise indicated, the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or.” The words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and similar terms in this Agreement or any other Loan Document refer to this Agreement or such other Loan Document, as the case may be, as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement or such other Loan Document, as the case may be. Section, subsection, clause, schedule, and exhibit references herein are to this Agreement unless otherwise specified. Any reference in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document to any agreement, instrument, or document shall include all alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements, thereto and thereof, as applicable (subject to any restrictions on such alterations, amendments, changes, extensions, modifications, renewals, replacements, substitutions, joinders, and supplements set forth herein). The words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties. Any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns. An Event of Default shall exist or continue or be continuing until such Event of Default is waived in accordance with Section 14.1 or is cured if such Event of Default is capable of being cured. Any reference herein or in any other Loan Document to the satisfaction, repayment, or payment in full of the Obligations, the Secured Obligations (as defined in the Security Documents) or the Guarantied Obligations (as defined in the applicable Guaranty) shall mean the repayment in full in cash or immediately available funds of all of the Obligations other than unasserted indemnification Obligations. Unless otherwise indicated herein, all references to time of day refer to Eastern Standard Time or Eastern daylight saving time, as in effect in New York City on such day. For purposes of the computation of a period of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from and including” and the words “to” and “until” each means “to and including”; provided, that, with respect to a computation of fees or interest payable to Agent or any Lender, such period shall in any event consist of at least one full day. Unless the context of this Agreement or any other Loan Document clearly requires otherwise or the Required Lenders otherwise determine, amounts expressed in US Dollars at any time when used with respect to Foreign Subsidiaries or similar matters shall be deemed to mean the US Dollar Equivalent of such amounts at such time.

1.5 Schedules and Exhibits. All of the schedules and exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be deemed incorporated herein by reference.

1.6 Pro Forma and Other Calculations.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, financial ratios and tests, including Consolidated EBITDA, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and the Secured Leverage Ratio shall be calculated in the manner prescribed by this Section 1.6; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clauses (b), (c), (d) or (e) of this Section 1.6, when calculating Consolidated EBITDA, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and the Secured Leverage Ratio, each as applicable, for purposes of Section 7(a), Section 7(b) and Section 7(c) (other than for the purpose of determining pro forma

-3-

compliance with Section 7(a), Section 7(b) and Section 7(c)), the events described in this Section 1.6 that occurred subsequent to the end of the applicable period shall not be given pro forma effect. In addition, whenever a financial ratio or test is to be calculated on a pro forma basis, the reference to “4 quarter period” for purposes of calculating such financial ratio or test shall be deemed to be a reference to, and shall be based on, the most recently ended 4 fiscal quarter period for which Agent has received or is required to have received financial statements (it being understood that for purposes of determining pro forma compliance with Section 7(a), Section 7(b) and Section 7(c), if no 4 quarter period with an applicable level cited in Section 7(a), Section 7(b) and Section 7(c), as applicable, has passed, the applicable level shall be the level for the first 4 quarter period cited in such section with an indicated level). For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the foregoing sentence shall not apply for purposes of calculating Consolidated EBITDA, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and the Secured Leverage Ratio, each as applicable, for purposes of Section 7(a), Section 7(b) and Section 7(c) (other than for the purpose of determining pro forma compliance with such Section to the extent referenced in such Section or another Section), each of which shall be based on the financial statements delivered to Agent pursuant to Section 5.1, as applicable, for the relevant period.

(b) For purposes of calculating any financial ratio or test, Specified Transactions (including, with any incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness in connection therewith to be subject to clause (d) of this Section 1.6) that have been made (i) during the applicable period or (ii) if applicable as described in clause (a) above, subsequent to such 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 Specified Transactions (and any increase or decrease in Consolidated EBITDA and the component financial definitions used therein attributable to any Specified Transaction) had occurred on the first day of the applicable period. If, since the beginning of any applicable period, any Person that subsequently became a Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries since the beginning of such period as a result of a Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.6, then such financial ratio or test shall be calculated to give pro forma effect thereto in accordance with this Section 1.6.

(c) Whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any Specified Transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Parent, which shall include any adjustments that would be required to be included in a Registration Statement on Form S-1 in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act; provided, however, that, without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, no such pro forma calculations shall include any cost savings, operating expense reductions, synergies or other similar items.

(d) In the event that (x) Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent incurs (including by assumption or guarantees) or repays (including by redemption, repayment, retirement or extinguishment) any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid under any revolving credit facility unless such Indebtedness has been permanently repaid and not replaced), or (y) Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent issues, repurchases or redeems Disqualified Equity Interests, in each case, included in the calculations of any financial ratio or test, (i) during the applicable period or (ii) subsequent to the end of the applicable period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then such financial ratio or test shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence or repayment of Indebtedness, or such issuance or redemption of Disqualified Equity Interests, in each case to the extent required, as if the same had occurred on the last day of the applicable period (except in the case of Consolidated EBITDA, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and the Secured Leverage Ratio (or similar ratio), in which case such incurrence, assumption, guarantee, redemption, repayment, retirement or extinguishment of Indebtedness or such issuance, repurchase or

-4-

redemption of Disqualified Equity Interests will be given effect, as if the same had occurred on the first day of the applicable period). Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision contained in the Loan Documents, with respect to the repayment or redemption of Indebtedness with the proceeds of an Excluded Issuance, such repayment or redemption shall be disregarded for all purposes under this Agreement, including the calculation of any financial covenants or ratios and, for the avoidance of doubt, Sections 7(a), (b) and (c), until Parent has delivered the financial information required under Section 5.1 for the first full fiscal quarter of Parent ending after the fiscal quarter in which such repayment or redemption was made.

(e) If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of the event for which the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio or the Secured Leverage Ratio is made had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any interest hedging arrangements applicable to such Indebtedness permitted by this Agreement). Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a Responsible Officer of the Parent to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a Eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be determined to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Parent or Subsidiary may designate.

2.	TERM LOAN AND TERMS OF PAYMENT.

2.1 [Reserved].

2.2 Term Loan.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on the Closing Date each Lender with a Term Loan Commitment agrees (severally, not jointly or jointly and severally) to make a term loan (collectively, the “Term Loan”) to Borrowers in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan Amount.

(b) Each Term Loan made by each Lender shall be evidenced by this Agreement and, if requested by a Lender, a Term Note payable to such Lender or its registered assigns in the original principal amount of such Term Loan.

(c) Borrowers shall pay to Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of the Term Loan of such Lender in installments payable on the dates set forth below in an aggregate amount for all Lenders set forth opposite the respective date below:

provided, that, the outstanding unpaid principal balance of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, the Term Loan shall be due and payable on the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the date of the acceleration of the Term Loan in accordance with the terms hereof. Any principal amount of the Term Loan that is repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. All principal of, interest on, and other amounts payable in respect of the Term Loan shall constitute Obligations hereunder.

2.3 [Reserved].

2.4 Payments; Reductions of Commitments; Prepayments.

(a) Payments by Borrowers.

(i) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by any Borrower shall be made to Agent’s Account for the account of the Lender Group and shall be made in immediately available funds, no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date specified herein. Any payment received by Agent later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue until such following Business Day.

(ii) Unless Agent receives notice from Administrative Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that Borrowers will not make such payment in full as and when required, Agent may assume that Borrowers have made (or will make) such payment in full to Agent on such date in immediately available funds and Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent Borrowers do not make such payment in full to Agent on the date when due, each Lender severally shall repay to Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at the interest rate then applicable to the Term Loan for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date repaid.

(b) Apportionment and Application.

(i) So long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing and except as otherwise provided herein, including with respect to Defaulting Lenders, all principal and interest payments received by Agent shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders (according to the unpaid principal

-6-

balance of the Obligations to which such payments relate held by each Lender) entitled to such payments and all payments of fees and expenses received by Agent (other than fees or expenses that are for Agent’s separate account) shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders having a Pro Rata Share of the type of Obligation to which a particular fee or expense relates. All payments to be made hereunder by Borrowers shall be remitted to Agent and all such payments, and all proceeds of Collateral received by Agent, shall be applied, so long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing, to repay the remaining Term Loan (which payments shall be applied against the Term Loan in the inverse order of maturity), and, thereafter, to Borrowers (to be wired to the Designated Account) or such other Person entitled thereto under applicable law (subject to Section 2.4(b)(v), Section 2.4(d)(ii) and Section 2.4(e)).

(ii) At any time that an Application Event has occurred and is continuing and except as otherwise provided herein with respect to Defaulting Lenders, all payments remitted to Agent in respect of the Obligations and all proceeds of Collateral received by Agent shall be applied as follows:

(A) first, to pay any Lender Group Expenses (including cost or expense reimbursements) or indemnities then due to Agent under the Loan Documents, until paid in full,

(B) second, to pay any fees then due to Agent under the Loan Documents until paid in full,

(C) third, ratably, to pay any Lender Group Expenses (including cost or expense reimbursements) or indemnities then due to any of the Lenders under the Loan Documents, until paid in full,

(D) fourth, ratably, to pay any fees (including any fees, premiums and penalties specified in Section 2.10) then due to any of the Lenders under the Loan Documents until paid in full,

(E) fifth, to pay interest due in respect of the Term Loan until paid in full,

(F) sixth, to pay the principal of the Term Loan (in the inverse order of maturity) until paid in full,

(G) seventh, to pay any other Obligations other than Obligations owed to Defaulting Lenders to pay any other Obligations,

(H) eighth, ratably to pay any Obligations owed to Defaulting Lenders, and

(I) ninth, to Borrowers or such other Person entitled thereto under applicable law.

(iii) In each instance, so long as no Application Event has occurred and is continuing, Section 2.4(b)(i) shall not apply to any payment made by any Borrower to Agent and specified by such Borrower to be for the payment of specific Obligations then due and payable (or prepayable) under any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

-7-

(iv) For purposes of Section 2.4(b)(ii), “paid in full” of a type of Obligation means payment in cash or immediately available funds of all amounts owing on account of such type of Obligation, including interest accrued after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding, default interest, interest on interest, and expense reimbursements, whether or not any of the foregoing would be or is allowed or disallowed in whole or in part in any Insolvency Proceeding.

(v) In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 2.4 and any other provision contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, then the terms and provisions of this Section 2.4 shall control and govern.

(i) [Reserved].

(ii) Termination of the Term Loan Commitments. The Term Loan Commitments shall terminate upon the making of the Term Loan.

(d) Optional Prepayments.

(i) [Reserved].

(ii) Term Loan.

Each prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.4(d)(ii) shall be (1) accompanied by the payment of accrued interest to the date of such payment on the amount prepaid and the payment of any premiums or penalties required by Section 2.10, and (2) in a minimum amount of $500,000, or the remaining balance of the Term Loan, if less. Each such prepayment shall be applied against the remaining installments of principal due on the Term Loan in the inverse order of maturity. Borrowers may not optionally prepay the Term Loan pursuant to this Section 2.4(d)(ii) at any time prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date.

(e) Mandatory Prepayments.

Within 3 Business Days of the date of receipt by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries of the Net Cash Proceeds of any voluntary or involuntary sale or disposition by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries of assets (including casualty losses or condemnations but excluding (x) sales or dispositions which qualify as Permitted Dispositions under clauses (a), (b), (c), (e), (i), (j), (l), (m) or (n) of the definition of Permitted Dispositions and (y) any single sale or disposition (including any casualty losses or condemnations) or series of related sales or dispositions for which the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds received from such sales or dispositions or series of related sales or dispositions does not exceed $50,000), Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.4(f)(ii) in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds (including condemnation awards and payments in lieu thereof) received by such Person in connection with such sales or dispositions to the extent that the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds received exceeds $2,500,000 in the aggregate during the term of this Agreement; provided that, so long as (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, (B) Administrative Borrower shall have given Agent prior written notice of Borrowers’ intention to apply such Net Cash Proceeds to the costs of replacement of the properties or assets that are the subject of such sale or disposition or the cost of purchase or construction of other assets (other than Current Assets) useful in the business of Parent or its Subsidiaries, (C) the Net Cash Proceeds are held in a Deposit Account in which Agent has a perfected first-priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens), and (D) Parent or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, complete such replacement, purchase, or construction within 180 days after

-8-

the initial receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, then the Loan Party whose assets were the subject of such disposition shall have the option to apply such monies to the costs of replacement of the assets that are the subject of such sale or disposition or the costs of purchase or construction of other assets useful in the business of such Loan Party unless and to the extent that such applicable period shall have expired without such replacement, purchase, or construction being made or completed, in which case, any amounts remaining in the Deposit Account referred to in clause (C) above shall be paid to Agent and applied in accordance with Section 2.4(f)(ii); provided, further, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, at Parent’s option, Parent may temporarily pay down outstanding amounts drawn under the ABL Credit Agreement with such Net Cash Proceeds (without a permanent reduction in commitments) other than Net Cash Proceeds from Term Priority Collateral prior to the application of such Net Cash Proceeds in accordance with the preceding clause (D) so long as Agent shall have received, prior to any such pay down, evidence satisfactory to the Required Lenders that ABL Agent has established a dollar-for-dollar reserve against the US Borrowing Base or the Canadian Borrowing Base, as applicable, in an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds and has agreed to make a loan under the ABL Credit Agreement in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds so applied or apply such amounts upon the occurrence of the applicable events as required by the terms of this Section 2.4(e)(ii) and Section 2.4(f). Nothing contained in this Section 2.4(e)(ii) shall permit Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to sell or otherwise dispose of any assets other than in accordance with Section 6.4.

(iii) Extraordinary Receipts. Within 3 Business Days of the date of receipt by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries of any Extraordinary Receipts, Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.4(f)(ii) in an amount equal to 100% of such Extraordinary Receipts, net of any reasonable expenses incurred in collecting such Extraordinary Receipts.

(iv) Indebtedness and Equity Issuances . Within 3 Business Days of the date of incurrence or issuance by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries of any Indebtedness (other than Permitted Indebtedness) or issuance of Equity Interests (other than Excluded Issuances), Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.4(f)(ii) in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received by such Person in connection with such incurrence or issuance. The provisions of this Section 2.4(e)(iv) shall not be deemed to be implied consent to any such incurrence or issuance otherwise prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

(v) Excess Cash Flow. Within 10 days of delivery to Agent of audited annual financial statements pursuant to Section 5.1, or, if such financial statements are not delivered to Agent on the date such statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.1, within 10 days after the date such statements were required to be delivered to Agent pursuant to Section 5.1, Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.4(f)(ii) in an amount equal to (x) 75% of the Excess Cash Flow of Parent and its Subsidiaries for such fiscal year minus (y) any voluntary prepayment of the Term Loan made during such fiscal year.

(vi) Change of Control. Borrowers shall immediately prepay the outstanding Obligations in the event that a Change of Control shall have occurred.

(vii) Waivable Mandatory Prepayments. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event Borrowers are required to make any mandatory prepayment (a “Waivable Mandatory Prepayment”) of the Term Loan pursuant to this Section 2.4(e), not less than 2 two Business Days prior to the date (the “Required Prepayment Date”) on which Borrowers are required to make such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, Administrative Borrower shall notify Agent of the amount of such prepayment, and Agent will promptly thereafter notify each Lender of the amount of such Lender’s Pro

-9-

Rata Share of such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment and such Lender’s option to refuse such amount. Each such Lender may exercise such option by giving written notice to Administrative Borrower and Agent of its election to do so on or before the first Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date (it being understood that any Lender that does not notify Administrative Borrower and Agent of its election to exercise such option on or before the first Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date shall be deemed to have elected, as of such date, not to exercise such option). On the Required Prepayment Date, Borrowers shall pay to Agent the amount of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, which amount shall be applied (A) in an amount equal to that portion of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment payable to those Lenders that have elected not to exercise such option, to prepay the Term Loans of such Lenders (which prepayment shall be applied to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.4(f)(ii)) and (B) to the extent of any excess, to Borrowers for working capital and general corporate purposes.

(f) Application of Payments.

(i) Any prepayments required pursuant to Section 2.4(e) shall be preceded by irrevocable written notice delivered to Agent by 11:00 A.M., New York City time, not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment, specifying the underlying reason for the mandatory prepayment and the amount of the same.

(ii) Subject to Section 2.4(f)(iii), each prepayment pursuant to Section 2.4(d) or Section 2.4(e) shall (A) so long as no Application Event shall have occurred and be continuing, be applied, to the outstanding principal amount of the remaining Term Loan until paid in full, and (B) if an Application Event shall have occurred and be continuing, be applied in the manner set forth in Section 2.4(b)(ii). Each such prepayment of the Term Loan shall be applied against the remaining installments of principal of the Term Loan in the inverse order of maturity (for the avoidance of doubt, any amount that is due and payable on the Maturity Date shall constitute an installment).

(iii) With respect to any mandatory prepayment required by Section 2.4(e)(ii): (A) if the proceeds are from any sale or disposition of, or insurance or any condemnation, taking or other casualty with respect to, any ABL Priority Collateral, such proceeds shall be applied (x) first, to the ABL Obligations, to the extent required by the ABL Credit Agreement (as in effect on the date hereof) until paid in full (but, for the avoidance of doubt, without a permanent reduction in commitments, unless required by the terms of the ABL Credit Agreement), and (y) second, to the principal of the Term Loan in the inverse order of maturity, until paid in full; and (B) if the proceeds are from the sale or disposition of, or insurance or any condemnation, taking or other casualty with respect to, any other assets of the Loan Parties not described in subclause (A), such proceeds shall be applied to the principal of the Term Loan in the inverse order of maturity, until paid in full.

2.5 [Reserved].

2.6 Interest Rate: Rate, Payments, and Calculations.

(a) Interest Rate. Except as provided in Section 2.6(c), all Obligations that have been charged to the Loan Account pursuant to the terms hereof shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the LIBOR Rate plus 9.75%.

(b) [Reserved].

(c) Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and at the election of Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders, all Obligations shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to three (3) percentage points above the per annum rate otherwise applicable thereunder.

-10-

(i) [Reserved].

(d) Payment. All interest, and all fees payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and all costs and expenses payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be due and payable, in arrears, on the first day of each quarter at any time that Obligations are outstanding, except as otherwise provided herein. Each Borrower hereby authorizes Agent, from time to time without prior notice to such Borrower, to charge all interest, fees, costs, expenses and other amounts payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents when due and payable to the Loan Account.

(e) Computation. Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed. For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest to which any rate calculated on the basis of a period of time different from the actual number of days in the year (360 days, for example) is equivalent is the stated rate multiplied by the actual number of days in the year (365 or 366 days) and divided by the number of days in the shorter period (360 days, in the example).

(f) Intent to Limit Charges to Maximum Lawful Rate. In no event shall the interest rate or rates payable under this Agreement, plus any other amounts paid in connection herewith, exceed the highest rate permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable. Each Borrower and the Lender Group, in executing and delivering this Agreement, intend legally to agree upon the rate or rates of interest and manner of payment stated within it; provided, that, anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if such rate or rates of interest or manner of payment exceeds the maximum allowable under applicable law, then, ipso facto, as of the date of this Agreement, Borrowers are and shall be liable only for the payment of such maximum amount as is allowed by law, and payment received from Borrowers in excess of such legal maximum, whenever received, shall be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Obligations to the extent of such excess.

2.7 Crediting Payments; Clearance Charge. The receipt of any payment item by Agent shall not be considered a payment on account unless such payment item is a wire transfer of immediately available federal funds made to Agent’s Account or unless and until such payment item is honored when presented for payment. Should any payment item not be honored when presented for payment, then Borrowers shall be deemed not to have made such payment and interest shall be calculated accordingly. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, any payment item shall be deemed received by Agent only if it is received into Agent’s Account on a Business Day on or before 11:00 a.m. (New York time). If any payment item is received into Agent’s Account on a non-Business Day or after 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on a Business Day, it shall be deemed to have been received by Agent as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day.

2.8 Designated Account. Agent is authorized to make any advance of the Term Loan in accordance with this Agreement based upon telephonic or other instructions received from anyone purporting to be an Authorized Person or, without instructions, if pursuant to Section 2.6(d). Borrowers agree to establish and maintain the Designated Account for the purpose of receiving the proceeds of the Term Loan requested by Borrowers and made by the Lenders hereunder. Unless otherwise agreed by Agent and Borrowers, any Term Loan requested by Borrowers and made by the Lenders hereunder shall be made to the Designated Account.

-11-

2.9 Maintenance of Loan Account; Statements of Obligations. Agent shall maintain an account on its books in the name of Borrowers (the “Loan Account”) on which Borrowers will be charged with the Term Loan made by the Lenders to Borrowers or for Borrowers’ account and with all other payment Obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including, accrued interest, fees and expenses, and Lender Group Expenses. In accordance with Section 2.7, the Loan Account will be credited with all payments received by Agent from Borrowers or for Borrowers’ account. Agent shall make available to Borrowers quarterly statements regarding the Loan Account, including the principal amount of the Term Loan interest accrued hereunder, fees accrued or charged hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and a summary itemization of all charges and expenses constituting Lender Group Expenses accrued hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and each such statement, absent manifest error, shall be conclusively presumed to be correct and accurate and constitute an account stated between Borrowers and the Lender Group unless, within 30 days after Agent first makes such a statement available to Borrowers, Borrowers shall deliver to Agent written objection thereto describing the error or errors contained in such statement.

2.10 Fees.

(a) Closing Fee. Borrowers shall pay to Agent for the account of the Lenders a closing fee in an amount equal to $1,500,000, which fee shall be due and payable in full on the Closing Date.

(b) Agent Fees. Borrowers shall timely pay to Agent such fees and expenses as are required under the Agent Fee Letter.

(c) Prepayment Premium. If Borrowers have sent (i) a notice of voluntary prepayment of the Term Loan pursuant to Section 2.4(d)(ii) or (ii) a notice of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 3.5 of this Agreement, then on the date set forth as the date of prepayment or termination in such notice, Borrowers shall pay to Agent, in cash, the Applicable Prepayment Premium. In addition, in the event of the termination of this Agreement and repayment of the Obligations at any time prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date for any other reason, including (A) acceleration of the Obligations after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, (B) foreclosure and sale of, or collection of, Collateral, (C) sale of Collateral in any Insolvency Proceeding, or (D) restructure, reorganization, or compromise of the Obligations by the confirmation of a plan of reorganization or any other plan of compromise, restructure, or arrangement in any Insolvency Proceeding, then, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining the actual amount of damages to the Lenders or profits lost by the Lenders as a result of such early termination, and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable estimation and calculation of the lost profits or damages of the Lenders, Borrowers shall pay to Agent, in cash, the Applicable Prepayment Premium, measured as of the date of such termination.

2.11 [Reserved].

2.12 Special Provisions Applicable to LIBOR Rate.

(i) In the event that any change in market conditions or any law, regulation, treaty, or directive, or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall at any time after the date hereof, in the reasonable opinion of any Lender, make it unlawful or impractical for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates at the LIBOR Rate, such Lender shall give notice of such changed circumstances to Agent and Administrative Borrower and Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender, and interest upon the Term Loan of such Lender thereafter shall accrue interest at the Reference Rate, until such Lender determines that it would no longer be unlawful or impractical to do so.

-12-

(ii) For purposes of this Section 2.12, the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all rules, regulations, orders, requests, guidelines or directives in connection therewith are deemed to have been enacted and become effective after the date of this Agreement.

(iii) Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, neither Agent, nor any Lender, nor any of their Participants, is required actually to acquire eurodollar deposits to fund or otherwise match fund any Obligation as to which interest accrues at the LIBOR Rate.

2.13 Capital Requirements.

(a) If, after the date hereof, any Lender determines that (i) the adoption of or change in any law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital or reserve requirements for banks or bank holding companies, or any change in the interpretation, implementation, or application thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the administration thereof, or (ii) compliance by such Lender or its parent bank holding company with any guideline, request or directive of any such entity regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law), has the effect of reducing the return on such Lender’s or such holding company’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such holding company could have achieved but for such adoption, change, or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such holding company’s then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy and assuming the full utilization of such entity’s capital) by any amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then such Lender may notify Administrative Borrower and Agent thereof. Following receipt of such notice, Borrowers agree to pay such Lender on demand the amount of such reduction of return of capital as and when such reduction is determined, payable within 30 days after presentation by such Lender of a statement in the amount and setting forth in reasonable detail such Lender’s calculation thereof and the assumptions upon which such calculation was based (which statement shall be deemed true and correct absent manifest error). In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided, that, (A) no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any reductions in return incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies Administrative Borrower of such law, rule, regulation or guideline giving rise to such reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor and (B) if such claim arises by reason of the adoption of or change in any law, rule, regulation or guideline that is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. For purposes of this Section 2.13(a), the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (of any successor or similar authority), the Bank for International Settlements and (in each case) all rules, regulations, orders, requests, guidelines or directives in connection therewith are deemed to have been enacted and become effective after the date of this Agreement.

(b) If any Lender requests additional or increased costs referred to in Section 2.12 or amounts under Section 2.13(a) or sends a notice under Section 2.12(i) relative to changed circumstances (any such Lender, an “Affected Lender”), then such Affected Lender shall use reasonable efforts to promptly designate a different one of its lending offices or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices or branches, if (i) in the reasonable judgment of such Affected Lender, such designation or assignment would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12 or Section 2.13(a), as applicable, or would eliminate the illegality or impracticality of determining the LIBOR Rate and (ii) in the reasonable judgment of such Affected Lender, such designation or assignment would not subject it to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to it. Borrowers agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and

-13-

expenses incurred by such Affected Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. If, after such reasonable efforts, such Affected Lender does not so designate a different one of its lending offices or assign its rights to another of its offices or branches so as to eliminate Borrowers’ obligation to pay any future amounts to such Affected Lender pursuant to Section 2.12 or Section 2.13(a), as applicable, then Borrowers (without prejudice to any amounts then due to such Affected Lender under Section 2.12 or Section 2.13(a), as applicable) may, unless prior to the effective date of any such assignment the Affected Lender withdraws its request for such additional amounts under Section 2.12 or Section 2.13(a), as applicable, or indicates that it is no longer unlawful or impractical to determine the LIBOR Rate, may seek a substitute Lender acceptable to the Required Lenders to purchase the Obligations owed to such Affected Lender and such Affected Lender’s Commitments hereunder (a “Replacement Lender”), and if such Replacement Lender agrees to such purchase, such Affected Lender shall assign to the Replacement Lender its Obligations and Commitments, pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, and upon such purchase by the Replacement Lender, such Replacement Lender shall be deemed to be a “Lender” for purposes of this Agreement and such Affected Lender shall cease to be a “Lender” for purposes of this Agreement.

2.14 Joint and Several Liability of Borrowers

(a) Each Borrower is accepting joint and several liability for the Obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Lender Group under this Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each Borrower and in consideration of the undertakings of the other Borrowers to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations.

(b) Each Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Borrowers, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including any Obligations arising under this Section 2.14), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each Borrower without preferences or distinction among them.

(c) If and to the extent that any Borrower shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event the other Borrowers will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation until such time as all of the Obligations are paid in full.

(d) The Obligations of each Borrower under the provisions of this Section 2.14 constitute the absolute and unconditional, full recourse Obligations of each Borrower enforceable against each Borrower to the full extent of its properties and assets, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the provisions of this Agreement (other than this Section 2.14(d)) or any other circumstances whatsoever.

(e) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Borrower hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability, notice of the occurrence of any Default, Event of Default, or of any demand for any payment under this Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by Agent or Lenders under or in respect of any of the Obligations, any requirement of diligence or to mitigate damages and, generally, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement). Each Borrower hereby assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent

-14-

or other action or acquiescence by Agent or Lenders at any time or times in respect of any default by any Borrower in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by Agent or Lenders in respect of any of the Obligations, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any security for any of the Obligations or the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of any Agent or Lender with respect to the failure by any Borrower to comply with any of its respective Obligations, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder, which might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.14 afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving any Borrower, in whole or in part, from any of its Obligations under this Section 2.14, it being the intention of each Borrower that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the Obligations of each Borrower under this Section 2.14 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance. The Obligations of each Borrower under this Section 2.14 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any bankruptcy, insolvency, winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any other Borrower or any Agent or Lender.

(f) Each Borrower represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders that such Borrower is currently informed of the financial condition of Borrowers and of all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations. Each Borrower further represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders that such Borrower has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents. Each Borrower hereby covenants that such Borrower will continue to keep informed of Borrowers’ financial condition and of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Obligations.

(g) The provisions of this Section 2.14 are made for the benefit of Agent, each member of the Lender Group, and their respective successors and assigns, and may be enforced by it or them from time to time against any or all Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of Agent, any member of the Lender Group, or any of their successors or assigns first to marshal any of its or their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against any Borrower or to exhaust any remedies available to it or them against any 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. The provisions of this Section 2.14 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied. 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 Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 2.14 will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made.

(h) Each Borrower hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of contribution or subrogation against any other Borrower with respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, any payments made by it to Agent or Lenders with respect to any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor until such time as all of the Obligations have been paid in full in cash. Any claim which any Borrower may have against any other Borrower with respect to any payments to any Agent or any member of the Lender Group hereunder 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 the Obligations and, in the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization, winding up, arrangement, or other similar proceeding under the laws of any jurisdiction relating to any Borrower, its debts or its assets, whether voluntary or involuntary, all such Obligations shall be paid in full in cash before any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any other Borrower therefor.

-15-

(i) Each Borrower hereby agrees that after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, such Borrower will not demand, xxx for or otherwise attempt to collect any indebtedness of any other Borrower owing to such Borrower until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, such Borrower shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by such Borrower as trustee for Agent, and such Borrower shall deliver any such amounts to Agent for application to the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.4(b).

(a) At the option of Borrowers (but subject to the conditions set forth in clause (b) below), upon at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to Agent (or such shorter time period as Agent and the Required Lenders may agree), the Term Loan Amount may be increased by an amount in the aggregate for all such increases of the Term Loan Amount not to exceed the Available Increase Amount (each such increase, an “Increase”). Agent shall, upon receipt of such written request from the Borrowers, invite each Lender to increase its Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan Amount (it being understood that no Lender shall be obligated to increase its Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan Amount) in connection with a proposed Increase at the interest rate proposed by Borrowers. Each Lender shall respond to such request within five (5) Business Days (or such shorter time period as Agent and the Required Lenders may agree) of receipt thereof, and if sufficient Lenders do not agree to increase their Pro Rata Share of the Term Loan Amount in connection with such proposed Increase, then Agent (upon the direction of the Required Lenders) or Borrowers may invite any prospective lender to become a Lender in connection with a proposed Increase (subject to the consent of the Required Lenders (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned)). Any Increase shall be in an amount of at least $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. In no event may the Term Loan Amount be increased pursuant to this Section 2.15 on more than 3 occasions in the aggregate for all such Increases.

(b) Each of the following shall be conditions precedent to any Increase of the Term Loan Amount and the making of the additional portion of the Term Loan (each, an “Additional Portion of the Term Loan” and collectively, the “Additional Portions of the Term Loan”) in connection therewith:

(i) The proceeds of such Additional Portion of the Term Loan shall be used by Borrowers solely to finance the purchase consideration (or a portion thereof) in connection with a Permitted Acquisition.

(ii) Agent or Borrowers have obtained the commitment of one or more Lenders (or other prospective lenders) satisfactory to the Required Lenders and Borrowers to provide the applicable Increase and any such Lenders (or prospective lenders), Borrowers, and Agent (upon the direction of the Required Lenders) have signed a joinder agreement to this Agreement (an “Increase Joinder”), in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, to which such Lenders (or prospective lenders), Borrowers, and Agent are party.

-16-

(iii) Borrowers have delivered to Agent and the Required Lenders updated pro forma Projections (after giving effect to the applicable Increase) for Parent and its Subsidiaries evidencing (A) that on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the applicable Increase, the Secured Leverage Ratio of Parent and its Subsidiaries as of the end of the fiscal quarter most recently ended as to which financial statements were required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement was at least 0.25 to 1.00 less than the maximum Secured Leverage Ratio permitted pursuant to Section 7(c) for such fiscal quarter and (B) compliance on a pro forma basis with Section 7 for the 4 fiscal quarters (on a quarter-by-quarter basis) immediately following the proposed date of the applicable Increase.

(iv) Borrowers shall have agreed with the Lenders (or prospective lenders) to the making the Additional Portion of the Term Loan with respect to the interest rate applicable to the Additional Portion of the Term Loan (which interest rate may be higher than, equal to, or lower than the interest rate applicable to the Term Loan set forth in this Agreement immediately prior to the date of the making of such Additional Portion of the Term Loan (the date of the effectiveness of the making of such Additional Portion of the Term Loan, the “Increase Date”)) and shall have notified Agent and the Required Lenders as to the amount of such interest rate. Any Increase Joinder may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, Borrowers and the Lenders or prospective lenders agreeing to the proposed Increase, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.15 (including any amendment necessary to effectuate the interest rate for the Additional Portion of the Term Loan). Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, if the total yield (calculated for both the Additional Portion of the Term Loan and the existing Term Loan, including the upfront fees, any interest rate floors and any original issue discount shared with all providers of such Additional Portion of the Term Loan without taking into account any fluctuations in the LIBOR Rate in respect of any such Additional Portion of the Term Loan) exceeds the total yield for the existing Term Loan by 0.25% or more, the interest rate for the existing Term Loan shall be increased so that the total yield in respect of such Additional Portion of the Term Loan is not more than 0.25% higher than the total yield for the existing Term Loan.

(v) Each of the representations and warranties of Parent or its Subsidiaries contained in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality or Material Adverse Change in the text thereof) on and as of the date of such extension of credit, as though made on and as of such date (except to the extent that such representations and warranties relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality or Material Adverse Change in the text thereof) as of such earlier date).

(vi) No Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such extension of credit, nor shall either result immediately from the making thereof.

(c) The principal amount of each Additional Portion of the Term Loan shall be repaid in consecutive installments each payable not more frequently than on a quarterly basis and each in an amount equal to or less than (i) 5.00% per annum of the initial principal amount of such Additional Portion of the Term Loan, in the case of each such installment required to be made on or prior to the date that is the first anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) 15.00% per annum of the initial principal amount of such Additional Portion of the Term Loan, in the case of each such installment required to be made during the period after the date that is the first anniversary of the Closing Date and up to and including the date that is the third anniversary of the Closing Date. The outstanding unpaid principal

-17-

balance and all accrued and unpaid interest on each Additional Portion of the Term Loan shall be due and payable on the earlier of (A) the Maturity Date, and (B) the date of the acceleration of such Additional Portion of the Term Loan in accordance with the terms hereof. Any principal amount of such Additional Portion of the Term Loan that is repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. All principal of, interest on, and other amounts payable in respect of each Additional Portion of the Term Loan shall constitute Obligations hereunder.

(d) Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all references in this Agreement and any other Loan Document to the Term Loan shall be deemed, unless the context otherwise requires, to include any Additional Portion of the Term Loan made pursuant to the increased Term Loan Amount pursuant to this Section 2.15.

(e) The Term Loan and the Term Loan Amount established pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall constitute the Term Loan and Term Loan Amount under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from any guarantees and the security interests created by the Loan Documents. Borrowers shall take any actions reasonably required by Agent (or the Required Lenders) to ensure and demonstrate that the Liens and security interests granted by the Loan Documents continue to be perfected under the Code and the PPSA or otherwise after giving effect to the establishment of any such new Term Loan Amount.

9.	RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

9.1 Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Agent, upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, shall (in each case under clause (a) by written notice to Administrative Borrower), in addition to any other rights or remedies provided for hereunder or under any other Loan Document or by applicable law, do any one or more of the following:

(a) declare the Obligations, whether evidenced by this Agreement or by any of the other Loan Documents to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall become and be immediately due and payable and Borrowers shall be obligated to repay all of such Obligations in full, without presentment, demand, protest, or further notice or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower;

(b) [Reserved]; and

The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 8.4 or Section 8.5, in addition to the remedies set forth above, without any notice to any Borrower or any other Person or any act by the Lender Group, and the Obligations, inclusive of all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all fees and all other amounts owing under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents, shall automatically and immediately become due and payable and Borrowers shall be obligated to repay all of such Obligations in full, without presentment, demand, protest, or notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by each Loan Party.

9.2 Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the Lender Group under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. The Lender Group shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, the PPSA, by law, or in equity. No exercise by the Lender Group of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election, and no waiver by the Lender Group of any Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by the Lender Group shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it.

-48-

9.3 Appointment of a Receiver. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent (upon the direction of the Required Lenders) shall seek the appointment of a receiver, interim receiver, manager or receiver and manager (a “Receiver”) under the laws of Canada or any province thereof to take possession of all or any portion of the Collateral of any Loan Party or to operate same and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, may seek the appointment of such a Receiver without the requirement of prior notice or a hearing. Any such Receiver shall, to the extent permitted by law, so far as concerns responsibility for his/her acts, be deemed to be an agent of such Loan Party and not Agent and the Lenders, and Agent and the Lenders shall not be in any way responsible for any misconduct, negligence or non-feasance on the part of any such Receiver, or his/her servants or employees, absent the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Agent or the Lenders as determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. Subject to the provisions of the instrument appointing him/her, any such Receiver shall have power to take possession of Collateral of any Loan Party, to preserve Collateral of such Loan Party or its value, to carry on or concur in carrying on all or any part of the business of such Loan Party and to sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of or concur in selling, leasing, licensing or otherwise disposing of Collateral of such Loan Party. To facilitate the foregoing powers, any such Receiver may, to the exclusion of all others, including a Loan Party, enter upon, use and occupy all premises owned or occupied by a Loan Party wherein Collateral of such Loan Party may be situated, maintain Collateral of a Loan Party upon such premises, borrow money on a secured or unsecured basis and use Collateral of a Loan Party directly in carrying on such Loan Party’s business or as security for loans or advances to enable the Receiver to carry on such Loan Party’s business or otherwise, as such Receiver shall, in its discretion, determine. Except as may be otherwise directed by Agent (upon the direction of the Required Lenders), all money received from time to time by such Receiver in carrying out his/her appointment shall be received in trust for and paid over to Agent. Every such Receiver may, in the discretion of the Required Lenders, be vested with all or any of the rights and powers of Agent and the Lenders. Agent (upon the direction of the Required Lenders) shall, either directly or through its nominees, exercise any or all powers and rights given to a Receiver by virtue of the foregoing provisions of this paragraph.

10.	WAIVERS; INDEMNIFICATION.

10.1 Demand; Protest; etc. Each Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by the Lender Group on which such Borrower may in any way be liable.

10.2 The Lender Group’s Liability for Collateral. Each Borrower hereby agrees that: (a) so long as Agent complies with its obligations, if any, under the Code and the PPSA, the Lender Group shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (i) the safekeeping of the Collateral, (ii) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause, (iii) any diminution in the value thereof, or (iv) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other Person, and (b) all risk of loss, damage, or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by Borrowers, other than any such loss or damage resulting from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Agent or any member of the Lender Group, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

10.3 Indemnification. Borrowers shall pay, indemnify, defend, and hold the Agent-Related Persons, the Lender-Related Persons (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless (to the fullest extent permitted by law) from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations,

-49-

proceedings, liabilities, fines, costs, penalties, and damages, and all reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys (limited to one U.S. counsel to Agent-Related Persons and one U.S. counsel to Lender-Related Persons, one Canadian counsel to Agent-Related Persons and one Canadian counsel to Lender-Related Persons, one Dutch counsel to Agent-Related Persons and one Dutch counsel to Lender-Related Persons and any local or regulatory counsel to Agent-Related Persons and Lender-Related Persons reasonably selected by Agent, one additional counsel for the Lenders (taken as a whole) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and, if the interests of any Agent-Related Person or Lender-Related Person are distinctly and disproportionately affected, one additional counsel for such affected Person), experts, or consultants and all other costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith or in connection with the enforcement of this indemnification (promptly upon demand of Agent but in any event not later than 5 days of demand therefor by Agent irrespective of (1) the provisions of Section 17.10 hereof and (2) whether suit is brought), at any time asserted against, imposed upon, or incurred by any of them (a) in connection with or as a result of or related to the execution and delivery incurred in advising, structuring, drafting, reviewing, administering or syndicating the Loan Documents), enforcement, performance, or administration (including any restructuring or workout with respect hereto) of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the monitoring of Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ compliance with the terms of the Loan Documents (provided, however, that the indemnification in this clause (a) shall not extend to (i) disputes solely between or among the Lenders or (ii) disputes solely between or among the Lenders and their respective Affiliates; it being understood and agreed that the indemnification in this clause (a) shall extend to Agent (but not the Lenders) relative to disputes between or among Agent (in its capacity as such) on the one hand, and one or more Lenders, or one or more of their Affiliates, on the other hand, (b) with respect to any investigation, litigation, or proceeding related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or the use of the proceeds of the credit provided hereunder (irrespective of whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto), or any act, omission, event, or circumstance in any manner related thereto, and (c) in connection with or arising out of any Environmental Liabilities, Environmental Action or Remedial Action, including any presence or release of Hazardous Materials at, on, under, to or from any assets or properties owned, leased or operated by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (each and all of the foregoing, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, that, no Borrower shall be obligated to indemnify any Indemnified Person under this Section 10.3 for any Taxes (except Taxes that represent claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations, proceedings, liabilities, fines, costs, penalties, disbursements, etc., arising solely from any non-Tax claim), which shall be governed solely by Section 16. The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, no Borrower shall have any obligation to any Indemnified Person under this Section 10.3 with respect to any Indemnified Liability that a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have resulted from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of such Indemnified Person or its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Obligations. If any Indemnified Person makes any payment to any other Indemnified Person with respect to an Indemnified Liability as to which any Borrower was required to indemnify the Indemnified Person receiving such payment, the Indemnified Person making such payment is entitled to be indemnified and reimbursed by Borrowers with respect thereto.

13.	ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS; SUCCESSORS.

13.1 Assignments and Participations.

(a) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more other Lenders or other entities (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Obligations at the time owing to it), provided, that, any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) The aggregate amount of the principal outstanding balance of the Obligations of the assigning Lender subject to such assignment shall be not less than $1,000,000, unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent, except that such minimum amount shall not apply to (A) an assignment or delegation by any Lender to any other Lender, an Affiliate of any Lender or a Related Fund or (B) a group of new Lenders, each of which is an Affiliate of each other or a Related Fund of such new Lender to the extent that the aggregate amount to be assigned to all such new Lenders is at least $1,000,000 or (C) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Obligations at the time owing to it;

(ii) Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(iii) The consent of the Required Lenders shall be required for any assignment, other than any assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or a Related Fund:

(iv) The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Acceptance (in the form of Exhibit A-1), together with a processing fee of $3,500, provided, that Agent may, in its discretion, elect to reduce or waive such processing fee in the case of any assignment, and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Agent an administrative questionnaire in a form satisfactory to Agent.

(v) No such assignment shall be made to (A) a Loan Party or an Affiliate of a Loan Party, (B) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute a Defaulting Lender or one of its Subsidiaries, (C) a natural Person or (D) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, any Disqualified Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, in the case of the preceding clause (D), an assigning Lender (x) shall be entitled conclusively, and shall be fully permitted, to rely upon the representation made by an Assignee, pursuant to Section 3(c) of the

-53-

Assignment and Acceptance between such assigning Lender and such Assignee, that such Assignee is not a Disqualified Lender and (y) shall have no liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document as a result of making such assignment to such Assignee if such representation shall have been untrue or incorrect unless, in either case, such assigning Lender has actual knowledge that such Assignee is a Disqualified Lender at the time of such assignment.

(vi) Borrowers and Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with a Lender in connection with the interest so assigned to an Assignee until (A) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses, and related information with respect to the Assignee, have been given to Administrative Borrower and Agent by such Lender and the Assignee, (B) such Lender and its Assignee have delivered to Administrative Borrower and Agent an Assignment and Acceptance and Agent has notified the assigning Lender of its receipt thereof in accordance with this Section 13.1(a) and the satisfaction of the other conditions herein.

(b) From and after the date that Agent has recorded the assignment in the Register and Agent notifies the assigning Lender (with a copy to Administrative Borrower) that it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance and, if applicable, payment of the required processing fee, (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, shall be a “Lender” and shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, and (ii) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (except with respect to Section 10.3) and be released from any future obligations under this Agreement (and in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto and thereto); provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall release any assigning Lender from obligations that survive the termination of this Agreement, including such assigning Lender’s obligations under Section 15 and Section 17.9(a).

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the Assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto, (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Borrower or the performance or observance by any Borrower of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto, (iii) such Assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance, (iv) such Assignee will, independently and without reliance upon Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement, (v) such Assignee appoints and authorizes Agent to take such actions and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to Agent, by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, and (vi) such Assignee agrees that it will perform all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

-54-

(d) Immediately upon Agent’s receipt of the required processing fee, if applicable, and delivery of notice to the assigning Lender pursuant to Section 13.1(b), this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee.

(e) Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks, financial institutions, or other Persons (a “Participant”) participating interests in all or any portion of its Obligations, its Commitment, and the other rights and interests of that Lender (the “Originating Lender”) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) the Originating Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Participant receiving the participating interest in the Obligations, and the other rights and interests of the Originating Lender hereunder shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the Originating Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Originating Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) Borrowers, Agent, and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Originating Lender in connection with the Originating Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iv) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the Participant has the right to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except to the extent such amendment to, or consent or waiver with respect to this Agreement or of any other Loan Document would (A) extend the final maturity date of the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (B) reduce the interest rate applicable to the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (C) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or guaranties (except to the extent expressly provided herein or in any of the Loan Documents) supporting the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (D) postpone the payment of, or reduce the amount of, the interest or fees payable to such Participant through such Lender (other than a waiver of default interest), or (E) decreases the amount or postpones the due dates of scheduled principal repayments or prepayments or premiums payable to such Participant through such Lender, and (v) all amounts payable (other than with respect to Section 16) by Borrowers hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation, except that, if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement. The rights of any Participant only shall be derivative through the Originating Lender with whom such Participant participates and no Participant shall have any rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any direct rights as to the other Lenders, Agent, Loan Parties, the Collections of Loan Parties, the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, a Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 16 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 16.2 and the provisions of Section 14.2) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to this Section 13.1. No Participant shall have the right to participate directly in the making of decisions by the Lenders among themselves.

(f) In connection with any such assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation or any grant of a security interest in, or pledge of, its rights under and interest in this Agreement, a Lender may, subject to the provisions of Section 17.9, disclose all documents and information which it now or hereafter may have relating to Parent and its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses.

(g) Any other provision in this Agreement notwithstanding, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Bank or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR §203.24, and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under applicable law.

-55-

(h) Agent (as a non-fiduciary agent on behalf of Borrowers) shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, a register (the “Register”) on which it enters the name and address of each Lender as the registered owner of the Term Loan (and the principal amount thereof and stated interest thereon) held by such Lender (each, a “Registered Loan”). A Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be assigned or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register (and each registered note shall expressly so provide) and any assignment or sale of all or part of such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be effected only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register, together with the surrender of the registered note, if any, evidencing the same duly endorsed by (or accompanied by a written instrument of assignment or sale duly executed by) the holder of such registered note, whereupon, at the request of the designated assignee(s) or transferee(s), one or more new registered notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated assignee(s) or transferee(s). Prior to the registration of assignment or sale of any Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any evidencing the same), Borrowers shall treat the Person in whose name such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) is registered as the owner thereof for the purpose of receiving all payments thereon and for all other purposes, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

(i) In the event that a Lender sells participations in the Registered Loan, such Lender, as a non-fiduciary agent on behalf of Borrowers, shall maintain (or cause to be maintained) a register on which it enters the name of all participants in the Registered Loans held by it (and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of such Registered Loans that is subject to such participations) (the “Participant Register”). A Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant Register (and each registered note shall expressly so provide). Any participation of such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be effected only by the registration of such participation on the Participant Register.

(j) Agent shall make a copy of the Register (and each Lender shall make a copy of its Participant Register in the extent it has one) available for review by Borrowers from time to time as Borrowers may reasonably request.

(k) In order to comply with the Dutch Financial Supervision Act (Wet op het financieel toezicht), the amount transferred under this Section 13.1 shall include an outstanding portion of at least EUR 100,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies) per Lender or such other amount as may be required from time to time by the Dutch Financial Supervision Act (or implementing legislation) or if less, the new Lender shall confirm in writing to Borrower that it is a professional market party within the meaning of the Dutch Financial Supervision Act.

13.2 Successors. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of each of the parties; provided, however, that no Borrower may assign this Agreement or any rights or duties hereunder without the Lenders’ prior written consent and notice thereof to Agent and any prohibited assignment shall be absolutely void ab initio. No consent to assignment by the Lenders shall release any Borrower from its Obligations. A Lender may assign this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and its rights and duties hereunder and thereunder pursuant to Section 13.1 and no consent or approval by any Borrower is required in connection with any such assignment.

-56-

14.	AMENDMENTS; WAIVERS.

14.1 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) No amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent with respect to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders (or by Agent at the written request of the Required Lenders) and the Loan Parties that are party thereto, and then any such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such waiver, amendment, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all of the Lenders directly affected thereby and all of the Loan Parties that are party thereto, do any of the following:

(i) increase the amount of or extend the expiration date of any Commitment of any Lender,

(ii) postpone or delay any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment of principal, interest, fees, or other amounts due hereunder or under any other Loan Document,

14.2 Replacement of Certain Lenders

(a) If (i) any action to be taken by the Lender Group or Agent hereunder requires the consent, authorization, or agreement of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby and if such action has received the consent, authorization, or agreement of the Required Lenders but not of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby, or (ii) any Lender makes a claim for compensation under Section 16 and such Lender has declined to designate a different lending office, then Borrowers or Agent, upon at least 5 Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice, may permanently replace any Lender that failed to give its consent, authorization, or agreement (a “Holdout Lender”) or any Lender that made a claim for compensation (a “Tax Lender”) with one or more Replacement Lenders, and the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall have no right to refuse to be replaced hereunder. Such notice to replace the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall specify an effective date for such replacement, which date shall not be later than 15 Business Days after the date such notice is given.

(b) Prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, and each Replacement Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance, subject only to the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, being repaid in full its share of the outstanding Obligations (without any premium or penalty of any kind whatsoever, but including all interest, fees and other amounts that may be due in payable in respect thereof and its existing rights to payment pursuant to Section 16).

The replacement of any Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall be made in accordance with the terms of Section 13.1. Until such time as one or more Replacement Lenders shall have acquired all of the Obligations and the other rights and obligations of the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Holdout Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall remain obligated to make the Holdout Lender’s or Tax Lender’s, as applicable, Pro Rata Share of Term Loan.

-58-

14.3 No Waivers; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by Agent or any Lender to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or delay by Agent or any Lender in exercising the same, will operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver by Agent or any Lender will be effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the extent specifically stated. No waiver by Agent or any Lender on any occasion shall affect or diminish Agent’s and each Lender’s rights thereafter to require strict performance by each Loan Party of any provision of this Agreement. Agent’s and each Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents will be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy that Agent or any Lender may have.

15.	AGENT; THE LENDER GROUP.

15.1 Appointment and Authorization of Agent. Each Lender hereby designates and appoints Cortland as its agent under this Agreement. The other Loan Documents and the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent to execute and deliver each of the other Loan Documents on its behalf and to take such other action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to Agent by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent agrees to act as agent for and on behalf of the Lenders on the conditions contained in this Section 15. Any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document notwithstanding, Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents, nor shall 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 Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents with reference to Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only a representative relationship between independent contracting parties. Each Lender hereby further authorizes Agent to act as the secured party under each of the Loan Documents that create a Lien on any item of Collateral. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement, Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions that Agent expressly is entitled to take or assert under or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, or of any other provision of the Loan Documents that provides rights or powers to Agent, Lenders agree that Agent shall have the right to exercise the following powers as long as this Agreement remains in effect: (a) maintain, in accordance with its customary business practices, ledgers and records reflecting the status of the Obligations, the Collateral, the Collections of Parent and its Subsidiaries, and related matters, (b) execute or file any and all financing or similar statements or notices, amendments, renewals, supplements, documents, instruments, proofs of claim, notices and other written agreements with respect to the Loan Documents, (c) exclusively receive, apply, and distribute the Collections of Parent and its Subsidiaries as provided in the Loan Documents, (d) open and maintain such bank accounts and cash management arrangements as Agent deems necessary and appropriate in accordance with the Loan Documents for the foregoing purposes with respect to the Collateral and the Collections of Parent and its Subsidiaries, (e) perform, exercise, and enforce any and all other rights and remedies of the Lender Group with respect to Parent or its Subsidiaries, the Obligations, the Collateral, the Collections of Parent and its Subsidiaries, or otherwise related to any of same as provided in the Loan Documents, and (f) incur and pay such Lender Group Expenses as Agent may deem necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions and powers pursuant to the Loan Documents.

-59-

15.2 Delegation of Duties. Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney in fact that it selects as long as such selection was made without gross negligence or willful misconduct.

15.3 Liability of Agent. None of the Agent-Related Persons shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any officer or director thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of Parent or its Subsidiaries or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lenders to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the books and records or properties of Parent or its Subsidiaries.

15.4 Reliance by Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Borrowers or counsel to any Lender), independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless Agent shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Lenders as it deems appropriate and until such instructions are received, Agent shall act, or refrain from acting, as it deems advisable. If Agent so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

15.5 Notice of Default or Event of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest, fees, and expenses required to be paid to Agent for the account of the Lenders and, except with respect to Events of Default of which Agent has actual knowledge, unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or any Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default, and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” Agent promptly will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice or of any Event of Default of which Agent has actual

-60-

knowledge. If any Lender obtains actual knowledge of any Event of Default, such Lender promptly shall notify the other Lenders and Agent of such Event of Default. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for giving any notices to its Participants, if any. Subject to Section 15.4, Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 9; provided, however, that unless and until Agent has received any such request, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable.

15.6 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Parent and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such due diligence, documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrowers. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of any Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document. Except for notices, reports, and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by Agent, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document that may come into the possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons. Each Lender acknowledges that Agent does not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis to provide such Lender with any credit or other information with respect to any Borrower, its Affiliates or any of their respective business, legal, financial or other affairs, and irrespective of whether such information came into Agent’s or its Affiliates’ or representatives’ possession before or after the date on which such Lender became a party to this Agreement.

15.7 Costs and Expenses; Indemnification. Agent may incur and pay Lender Group Expenses to the extent Agent reasonably deems necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions, powers, and obligations pursuant to the Loan Documents, including court costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses, fees and expenses of financial accountants, advisors, consultants, and appraisers, costs of collection by outside collection agencies, auctioneer fees and expenses, and costs of security guards or insurance premiums paid to maintain the Collateral, whether or not Borrowers are obligated to reimburse Agent or Lenders for such expenses pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise. Agent is authorized and directed to deduct and retain sufficient amounts from the Collections of Parent and its Subsidiaries received by Agent to reimburse Agent for such out-of-pocket costs and expenses prior to the distribution of any amounts to Lenders. In the event Agent is not reimbursed for such costs and expenses by Parent or its Subsidiaries, each Lender hereby agrees that it is and shall be obligated to pay to Agent such Lender’s ratable share thereof. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each of the Lenders, on a ratable basis, shall indemnify and defend the Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of Borrowers to do so) from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, that, no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities

-61-

resulting solely from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct nor shall any Lender be liable for the obligations of any Defaulting Lender in failing to make an extension of credit hereunder. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Agent upon demand for such Lender’s ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys, accountants, advisors, and consultants fees and expenses) incurred by Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrowers. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Agent.

15.8 Agent in Individual Capacity. Cortland and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, provide bank products to, acquire equity interests in, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any other Person party to any Loan Document as though Cortland were not Agent hereunder, and, in each case, without notice to or consent of the other members of the Lender Group. The other members of the Lender Group acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Cortland or its Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrowers or their Affiliates or any other Person party to any Loan Documents that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrowers or such other Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to the Lenders, and the Lenders acknowledge that, in such circumstances (and in the absence of a waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver Agent will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain), Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them. The terms “Lender” and “Lenders” may include Cortland in its individual capacity.

15.9 Successor Agent. Agent may resign as Agent upon 30 days (10 days if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) prior written notice to the Lenders (unless such notice is waived by the Required Lenders) and Administrative Borrower (unless such notice is waived by Administrative Borrowers). If Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall be entitled, with (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) the consent of Administrative Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned), appoint a successor Agent for the Lenders. If no successor Agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Agent, Agent may appoint, after consulting with Administrative Borrower and with the consent of the Required Lenders, a successor Agent. In any such event, upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor Agent hereunder, such successor Agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers, and duties of the retiring Agent and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor Agent and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers, and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 15 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. If no successor Agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above.

15.10 Lender in Individual Capacity. Any Lender and its respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, provide bank products to, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any other Person party to any Loan Documents as though such Lender were not a Lender hereunder without notice to or consent of the other members of the Lender Group. The other members of the Lender Group acknowledge that, pursuant to

-62-

such activities, such Lender and its respective Affiliates may receive information regarding Parent or its Affiliates or any other Person party to any Loan Documents that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Parent or such other Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to the Lenders, and the Lenders acknowledge that, in such circumstances (and in the absence of a waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver such Lender will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain), such Lender shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them.

15.11 Collateral Matters.

(a) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, upon the direction of the Required Lenders, to release, or subordinate, any Lien on any of the Collateral (i) upon payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations, or (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if Administrative Borrower or any Loan Party certifies to Agent and the Required Lenders that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with Section 6.4 (and Agent and the Required Lenders may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), or (iii) constituting property in which any Loan Party did not own an interest at the time the security interest, mortgage or lien was granted or at any time thereafter, or (iv) having a value in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period of less than $2,500,000, and to the extent Agent (at the direction of the Required lenders) may release its Lien on any such Collateral pursuant to the sale or other disposition thereof, such sale or other disposition shall be deemed consented to by the Lenders, or (v) if required or permitted under the terms of any of the other Loan Documents, including any intercreditor agreement, or (vi) constituting property leased to a Loan Party under a lease that has expired or is terminated, or (vii) subject to Section 14.1 and the Security Documents, if the release is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders. Upon request by Agent or Borrower at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing Agent’s authority to release or subordinate any such Liens on particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 15.11; provided, that, (1) Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release or subordination on terms that, in Agent’s opinion, would expose Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Lien without recourse, representation, or warranty, and (2) such release or subordination shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released or subordinated) upon (or obligations of Borrower in respect of) all interests retained by any Loan Party, including, the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. The Lenders further hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, upon the direction of the Required Lenders, to subordinate any Lien granted to or held by Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Permitted Lien on such property if such Permitted Lien secures Permitted Purchase Money Indebtedness.

(b) The Loan Parties and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, to (A) consent to, credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code or other bankruptcy laws, including under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, (B) credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale or other disposition thereof conducted under the provisions of the Code or the PPSA, including pursuant to Sections 9-610 or 9-620 of the Code, or (C) credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any other sale or foreclosure conducted by Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid or purchase, the Obligations owed to the Lenders shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims being estimated for such purpose if the fixing or liquidation thereof would not unduly delay the ability of Agent to credit bid or purchase at

-63-

such sale or other disposition of the Collateral and, if such claims cannot be estimated without unduly delaying the ability of Agent to credit bid, then such claims shall be disregarded, not credit bid, and not entitled to any interest in the asset or assets purchased by means of such credit bid) and the Lenders whose Obligations are credit bid shall be entitled to receive interests (ratably based upon the proportion of their Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Obligations so credit bid) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Equity Interests of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase).

(c) Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by a Loan Party or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or that any particular items of Collateral meet the eligibility criteria applicable in respect thereof or whether to impose, maintain, reduce, or eliminate any particular reserve hereunder or whether the amount of any such reserve is appropriate or not, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion given Agent’s own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as one of the Lenders and that Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender as to any of the foregoing, except as otherwise provided herein.

15.12 Restrictions on Actions by Lenders; Sharing of Payments.

(a) Each of the Lenders agrees that it shall not, without the express written consent of the Required Lenders, and that it shall, to the extent it is lawfully entitled to do so, upon the written request of the Required Lenders, set off against the Obligations, any amounts owing by such Lender to Parent or its Subsidiaries or any deposit accounts of Parent or its Subsidiaries now or hereafter maintained with such Lender. Each of the Lenders further agrees that it shall not, unless specifically requested to do so in writing by the Required Lenders, take or cause to be taken any action, including, the commencement of any legal or equitable proceedings to enforce any Loan Document against any Borrower or any Guarantor or to foreclose any Lien on, or otherwise enforce any security interest in, any of the Collateral.

(b) If, at any time or times any Lender shall receive (i) by payment, foreclosure, setoff, or otherwise, any proceeds of Collateral or any payments with respect to the Obligations, except for any such proceeds or payments received by such Lender from Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) payments from Agent in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all such distributions by Agent, such Lender promptly shall (A) turn the same over to Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to Agent, or in immediately available funds, as applicable, for the account of all of the Lenders and for application to the Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, or (B) purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in the Obligations owed to the other Lenders so that such excess payment received shall be applied ratably as among the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares; provided, however, that to the extent that such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases of participations shall be rescinded in whole or in part, as applicable, and the applicable portion of the purchase price paid therefor shall be returned to such purchasing party, but without interest except to the extent that such purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with the recovery of the excess payment.

-64-

15.13 Agency for Perfection. Agent hereby appoints each other Lender as its agent (and each Lender hereby accepts such appointment) for the purpose of perfecting Agent’s Liens in assets which, in accordance with Article 8 or Article 9, as applicable, of the Code or in accordance with the PPSA or the Securities Transfer Act of any applicable jurisdictions in Canada can be perfected by possession or control. Should any Lender obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify Agent and the Required Lenders thereof, and, promptly upon Agent’s request (upon the direction of the Required Lenders) therefor shall deliver possession or control of such Collateral to Agent or in accordance with Agent’s instructions.

15.14 Payments by Agent to the Lenders. All payments to be made by Agent to the Lenders shall be made by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to such wire transfer instructions as each party may designate for itself by written notice to Agent. Concurrently with each such payment, Agent shall identify whether such payment (or any portion thereof) represents principal, premium, fees, or interest of the Obligations.

15.15 Concerning the Collateral and Related Loan Documents. Each member of the Lender Group authorizes and directs Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each member of the Lender Group agrees that any action taken by Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents relating to the Collateral and the exercise by Agent of its powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

15.16 Collateral Reports; Confidentiality; Disclaimers by Lenders; Other Reports and Information.

(ii) expressly agrees and acknowledges that Agent does not (i) make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any Report, and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report,

(iii) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that Agent or other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding Parent and its Subsidiaries and will rely significantly upon Parent’s and its Subsidiaries’ books and records, as well as on representations of each Borrower’s personnel,

(iv) agrees to keep all Reports and other material, non-public information regarding Parent and its Subsidiaries and their operations, assets, and existing and contemplated business plans in a confidential manner in accordance with Section 17.9, and

(v) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees: (i) to hold Agent and any other Lender preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or fail to take or any conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any loans or other credit accommodations that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to Borrowers, or the

-65-

indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, a loan or loans of Borrowers, and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend and hold Agent, and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including, attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred by Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender.

(b) In addition to the foregoing: (i) any Lender may from time to time request of Agent in writing that Agent provide to such Lender a copy of any report or document provided by Parent or any Subsidiary of Parent to Agent that has not been contemporaneously provided by Parent or its Subsidiaries to such Lender, and, upon receipt of such request, Agent promptly shall provide a copy of same to such Lender, (ii) to the extent that Agent is entitled, under any provision of the Loan Documents, to request additional reports or information from Parent or its Subsidiaries, any Lender may, from time to time, reasonably request Agent to exercise such right as specified in such Lender’s notice to Agent, whereupon Agent promptly shall request of such Borrower the additional reports or information reasonably specified by such Lender, and, upon receipt thereof from Parent or its Subsidiaries, Agent promptly shall provide a copy of same to such Lender and (iii) any time that Agent renders to any Borrower a statement regarding the Loan Account, Agent shall send a copy of such statement to each Lender.

15.17 Agent May File Proofs of Claim.

(a) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Obligations shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Agent shall have made any demand on Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, upon the direction of the Required Lenders, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

16.3 Lender Indemnification. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so in accordance with Section 16.1), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.1(i) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any non-Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 16.4, in no event will Agent or a Lender be required to pay any amount to the Loan Parties pursuant to this Section 16.4 the payment of which would place Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-tax position than Agent or such Lender 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 Section 16.4 shall not be construed to require Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other confidential information which it in good xxxxx xxxxx confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.
