Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and RBC Capital Markets, LLC have agreed to act as the representatives of the several Initial Purchasers (the “Representatives”) in connection with the offering and sale of the Notes.

The Securities (as defined herein) will be issued pursuant to the provisions of an indenture, to be dated as of February 15, 2018 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Guarantors (as defined herein) and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”).

The payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis, jointly and severally, by (i) the Company, (ii) the other entities listed on the signature pages hereof as guarantors (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) and (iii) any subsidiary of the Company formed or acquired after the Closing Date (as defined herein) that executes an additional guarantee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, and their respective successors and assigns (together with the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, the “Guarantors”), pursuant to their guarantees (the “Guarantees”). The Notes and the Guarantees attached thereto are herein collectively referred to as the “Securities.”

The Issuer understands that the Initial Purchasers propose to make an offering of the Securities on the terms and in the manner set forth herein and in the Time of Sale Memorandum (as defined herein) and agrees that the Initial Purchasers may resell, subject to the conditions set forth herein, all or a portion of the Securities to purchasers (the “Subsequent Purchasers”) on the terms set forth in the Time of Sale Memorandum (the first time when sales of the Securities are made is referred to as the “Time of Sale”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Securities and the Indenture, investors who acquire Securities shall be deemed to have agreed that Securities may only be resold or otherwise transferred, after the date hereof, if such Securities are registered for sale under the Securities Act or if an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act is available (including the exemptions afforded by Rule 144A or Regulation S) or as otherwise described in the Time of Sale Memorandum.

(h) Neither the Issuer nor any Affiliate will sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in the Securities Act) which if, as a result of the doctrine of “integration” referred to in Rule 502 under the Securities Act, such offer or sale would render invalid (for the purpose of (i) the sale of the Securities by the Issuer to the Initial Purchasers, (ii) the resale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to the Subsequent Purchasers or (iii) the resale of the Securities by such Subsequent Purchasers to others) the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Section 4(a)(2) thereof or by Rule 144A or by Regulation S thereunder or otherwise.

(i) Without the Representatives’ prior consent, not to, and to cause its affiliates or any other person acting on its or their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers, as to which no covenant is given) not to, solicit offers for, or offer or sell, the Securities by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) of Regulation D or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

(j) While any of the Securities remain outstanding, to make available, upon request, to any holder of such Securities and any prospective purchasers thereof the information specified in Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act, unless as such time the Issuer shall be subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and shall have filed all reports required to be filed pursuant to such Sections and the related rules and regulations of the Commission.

(k) None of the Issuer, its Affiliates or any person acting on its or their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers) will engage in any directed selling efforts (as that term is defined in Regulation S) with respect to the Securities, and the Issuer and its Affiliates and each person acting on its or their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers) will comply with the offering restrictions requirement of Regulation S.

(o) The Issuer and the Guarantors, severally and jointly, shall pay, and shall indemnify and hold the Initial Purchasers harmless against, any stamp, issue, registration, documentary, sales, transfer or other similar taxes or duties imposed under the laws of the Cayman Islands, Canada and the United States or any political sub-division or taxing authority thereof or therein that is payable in connection with (i) the execution, delivery, consummation or enforcement of this Agreement, (ii) the creation, allotment and issuance of the Securities, (iii) the sale and delivery of the Securities to the Initial Purchasers or purchasers procured by the Initial Purchasers, or (iv) the resale and delivery of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers in the manner contemplated herein.

(p) All sums payable to an Initial Purchaser shall be considered exclusive of any value added or similar taxes. Where the Issuer or a Guarantor is obliged to pay value added or similar tax on any amount payable hereunder to an Initial Purchaser, the Issuer or such Guarantor shall in addition to the sum payable hereunder pay an amount equal to any applicable value added or similar tax.

7. Offering of Securities; Restrictions on Transfer. (a) The Company understands that the Initial Purchasers intend to offer the Securities for resale on the terms set forth in the Time of Sale Memorandum. Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, represents, warrants and agrees that:

(i) it is a qualified institutional buyer within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act (a “QIB”), an accredited investor within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act and an accredited investor within the meaning of NI 45-106 with such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as are necessary in order to evaluate the merits and risk of an investment in the Notes;

(iii) without the Representatives’ prior consent, it has not solicited offers for, or offered or sold, and will not solicit offers for, or offer or sell, the Securities by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) of Regulation D under the Securities Act (“Regulation D”) or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act;

(iv) it has not solicited offers for, or offered or sold, and will not solicit offers for, or offer or sell, the Securities as part of their initial offering except to persons whom it reasonably believes to be QIBs in transactions pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“Rule 144A”) and in connection with each such sale, it has taken or will take reasonable steps to ensure that the purchaser of the Securities is aware that such sale is being made in reliance on Rule 144A; and

(v) it has not solicited offers for, or offered or sold, and will not solicit offers for, or offer or sell, the Securities as part of their initial offering to persons resident in Canada unless it has provided a copy of the Preliminary Memorandum and the Final Memorandum to such persons and except to persons:

(A) which are not individuals;

(B) whom it reasonably believes are “accredited investors” as defined in Section 1.1 of National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus Exemptions (“NI 45-106”) or subsection 73.3(1) of the Securities Act (Ontario) (the “OSA”), as applicable, and (1) whom are either purchasing the Securities as principal for their own account, or are deemed to be purchasing the Securities as principal for their own account in accordance with Canadian Securities Laws and not as agent for the benefit of another person; (2) if they are an “accredited investors” in reliance on paragraph (m) of the definition of “accredited investor” in section 1.1 of NI 45-106, such person was not created or used solely to purchase or hold the Securities as an “accredited investor” as described under that paragraph (m); and (3) whom are not purchasing the Securities pursuant to any of (i) subsections (e), (e.1), (j), (j.1), (k) or (l) of the definition of “accredited investor” in Section 1.1 of NI 45-106, subsections (d), (q) or (v) of the definition of “accredited investor” in Section 1.1 of NI 45-106, as an “individual” or, subsections (d), (i) or (j) of the definition of “accredited investor” in Section 73.3(1) of the OSA as a “person”; and

(C) which are “permitted clients” as defined in National Instrument 31-103 Registration Requirements, Exemptions and Ongoing Registrant Obligations (“NI 31-103”) if any Initial Purchaser is relying on the international dealer exemption pursuant to NI 31-103.

(b) Each Initial Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Company and, for purposes of the opinions to be delivered to the Initial Purchasers pursuant to Sections 5(d) and 5(j) hereof, counsel for the Company and counsel for the Initial Purchasers, respectively, may rely upon the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Initial Purchasers, and compliance by the Initial Purchasers with their agreements, contained in paragraph (a) above, and each Initial Purchaser hereby consents to such reliance.

(c) The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Initial Purchasers may, in accordance with the Securities Act and if applicable Canadian Securities Laws, offer and sell Securities to or through any affiliate of an Initial Purchaser and that any such affiliate may offer and sell Securities purchased by it to or through any Initial Purchaser; provided such affiliate is duly registered or licensed or exempt from any such requirement in those jurisdictions in which it is required to be so registered or licensed in order to offer the Securities for resale.

8. Indemnity and Contribution. (a) Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and each affiliate of each Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim, as such expenses are incurred) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, any Additional Written Offering Communication prepared by or on behalf of, used by, or referred to by the Issuer or the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to any Initial Purchaser furnished to the Issuer by such Initial Purchaser through the Representatives expressly for use in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, any Additional Written Offering Communication or the Final Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto). The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section ‎8(a) shall be in addition to any liabilities that the Issuer and the Guarantors may otherwise have.

(b) Each Initial Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Issuer, each Guarantor, each of their directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Issuer or any Guarantor within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Issuer to such Initial Purchaser, but only with reference to information relating to such Initial Purchaser furnished to the Issuer by such Initial Purchaser through the Representatives expressly for use in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, any Additional Written Offering Communication or the Final Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto). Each of the Issuer and the Guarantors hereby acknowledges that the only information that the Initial Purchasers through the Representatives have furnished to the Company expressly for use in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, any Additional Written Communication set forth in Schedule II hereto, or the Final Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto) are the statements set forth in the first sentence of the seventh paragraph and the fourth sentence of the eleventh paragraph under the caption “Plan of Distribution” in the Preliminary Memorandum and the Final Memorandum (the “Initial Purchaser Information”). The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section ‎8(b) shall be in addition to any liabilities that each Initial Purchaser may otherwise have.

(c) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section ‎8(a) or ‎8(b), such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under this Section ‎8 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure (through the forfeiture of substantive rights and defenses) and shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that the indemnifying party may have to an indemnified party other than under this Section ‎8. The indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, (ii) the indemnifying party has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, (iii) the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnified party, or (iv) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by the Representatives, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section ‎8(a), and by the Company, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section ‎8(b). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and does not include any statements as to or any findings of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section ‎8(a) or ‎8(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities claims, damages or expenses incurred by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Issuer and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause ‎8(d)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause ‎8(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the Issuer and the Guarantors on the one hand and of the Initial Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Issuer and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the Securities (net of total Initial Purchasers’ discounts but before deducting expenses) received by the Issuer and the total discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers bear to the aggregate offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Issuer and the Guarantors on the one hand and of the Initial Purchasers on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuer or the Guarantors, or by the Initial Purchasers, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Initial Purchasers’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section ‎8 are several in proportion to the respective principal amount of Securities they have purchased hereunder as set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto, and not joint.

(e) The Issuer and the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to Section ‎8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section ‎8(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section ‎8(d) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (e), no Initial Purchaser shall be obligated to make contributions hereunder that in the aggregate exceed the total discounts, commissions and other compensation received by such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement, less the aggregate amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section ‎8 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

(f) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section ‎8 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the Issuer contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser, any person controlling any Initial Purchaser or any affiliate of any Initial Purchaser or by or on behalf of the Company, its officers or directors or any person controlling the Company and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Securities.

9. Termination. (a) The Representatives, on behalf of the Initial Purchasers, may terminate this Agreement at any time at or prior to the Closing Date, by notice to the Issuer, if (i) since the time of execution of this Agreement or the earlier respective dates as of which information is given in the Preliminary Memorandum, there shall have been any material adverse change in the business, properties, management, condition (financial or otherwise), liquidity, results of operations or prospects of the Company and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole the effect of which change or development is, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the completion of the offering of Securities contemplated by this Agreement or to enforce contracts for the sale of such Securities; (ii) the Issuer or the Guarantors shall be in breach of, default under or non-compliance with any covenant, term or condition of this Agreement, in any material respect, or any representation or warranty given by the Issuer and the Guarantors in this Agreement becomes or are false in any material respect; (iii) since the time of execution of this Agreement, there shall have occurred: (A) a suspension or material limitation in trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE MKT, NASDAQ or the TSX, (B) a suspension or material limitation in trading in the Company’s securities on NYSE MKT or the TSX, (C) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities declared by either federal or New York State authorities or a material disruption in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States or Canada, or (D) an outbreak or escalation of hostilities or acts of terrorism involving the United States or a declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war or any other calamity or crisis or any change in financial, political or economic conditions in the United States or elsewhere if the effect of any such event specified in this clause (D), in the sole judgment of the Representatives, makes it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the completion of the offering of Securities contemplated by this Agreement or to enforce contracts for the sale of such Securities; or (iv) since the time of execution of this Agreement, there shall have occurred any downgrading in or withdrawal of, or any notice or announcement shall have been given or made of any intended or potential downgrading in or withdrawal of, or any watch, review or possible change that does not indicate an affirmation of, or improvement in, any rating accorded any securities of or guaranteed by the Company or any Subsidiary by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization,” as that term is defined in Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act.

(b) In the event of any termination of this Agreement under Section 9(a) hereof, neither party will have any liability to the other party hereto, except the provisions of Sections 1, 6(g), 8, 19 and 16 hereof shall remain in effect.

10. Effectiveness; Defaulting Initial Purchasers. If one or more Initial Purchasers shall fail at the Closing Date to purchase the Securities which it or they are obligated to purchase under this Agreement (the “Defaulted Securities”), then the Representatives shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one of or more of the Initial Purchasers or any other initial purchasers to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Securities in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; provided; however, that if such arrangements shall not have been completed within such 24 hour period, then:

(a) if the number of Defaulted Securities does not exceed 10% of the number of Securities to be so purchased by all of the Initial Purchasers on such date, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective initial purchase obligation bears to the purchase obligations of all non-defaulting Initial Purchasers; or

(b) if the number of Defaulted Securities exceeds 10% of the number of Securities to be so purchased by all of the Initial Purchasers on such date, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Initial Purchasers.

No action taken pursuant to this Section 10 shall relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability in respect of its default. In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement, either the Representatives or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Time of Sale Memorandum or the Final Memorandum or in any other documents or arrangements. If any Initial Purchaser defaults pursuant to this Section 10, the Company shall not be obligated to reimburse such defaulting Initial Purchaser for its out-of-pocket expenses. As used herein, the term “Initial Purchaser” includes any person substituted for an Initial Purchaser under this Section 10.

11. Entire Agreement. (a) This Agreement, together with any contemporaneous written agreements and any prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement) that relate to the offering of the Securities, represents the entire agreement between the Issuer and the Initial Purchasers with respect to the preparation of the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum, the conduct of the offering, and the purchase and sale of the Securities.

(b) This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

(c) The Issuer acknowledges that in connection with the offering of the Securities: (i) the Initial Purchasers have acted at arms length, are not agents of, and owe no fiduciary duties to, the Issuer, the Guarantors or any other person, (ii) the Initial Purchasers owe the Issuer only those duties and obligations set forth in this Agreement and prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement) if any, (iii) the Initial Purchasers may have interests that differ from those of the Issuer and the Guarantors, and (iv) the Initial Purchasers have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby, and the Issuer and the Guarantors have consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate. The Issuer and the Guarantors waive to the full extent permitted by applicable law any claims it may have against the Initial Purchasers arising from an alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the offering of the Securities.

12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier, facsimile or other electronic transmission (i.e., a “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof.

13. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto, and to the benefit of the indemnified parties referred to in Section ‎8 hereof, and in each case their respective successors, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder. The term “successors” shall not include any Subsequent Purchaser or other purchaser of the Securities as such from any of the Initial Purchasers merely by reason of such purchase.

14. Partial Unenforceability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other section, paragraph or provision hereof. If any section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement is for any reason determined to be invalid or unenforceable, there shall be deemed to be made such minor changes (and only such minor changes) as are necessary to make it valid and enforceable.

15. Authority of the Representative. Any action by the Initial Purchasers hereunder may be taken by the Representatives on behalf of the Initial Purchasers, and any such action taken by the Representatives shall be binding upon the Initial Purchasers.

16. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.

(a) Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (“Related Proceedings”) may be instituted in the federal courts of the United States of America located in the City and County of New York or the courts of the State of New York in each case located in the City and County of New York (collectively, the “Specified Courts”), and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction (except for suits, actions, or proceedings instituted in regard to the enforcement of a judgment of any Specified Court in a Related Proceeding (a “Related Judgment”), as to which such jurisdiction is non-exclusive) of the Specified Courts in any Related Proceeding. Service of any process, summons, notice or document by mail to such party’s address set forth above shall be effective service of process for any Related Proceeding brought in any Specified Court. The parties irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any Specified Proceeding in the Specified Courts and irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim in any Specified Court that any Related Proceeding brought in any Specified Court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each party not located in the United States irrevocably appoints CT Corporation System as its agent to receive service of process or other legal summons for purposes of any Related Proceeding that may be instituted in any Specified Court.

(b) With respect to any Related Proceeding, each party irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all immunity (whether on the basis of sovereignty or otherwise) from jurisdiction, service of process, attachment (both before and after judgment) and execution to which it might otherwise be entitled in the Specified Courts, and with respect to any Related Judgment, each party waives any such immunity in the Specified Courts or any other court of competent jurisdiction, and will not raise or claim or cause to be pleaded any such immunity at or in respect of any such Related Proceeding or Related Judgment, including, without limitation, any immunity pursuant to the United States Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976, as amended.

(c) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder into any currency other than United States dollars, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Initial Purchasers could purchase United States dollars with such other currency in The City of New York on the business day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligations of the Company and each Guarantor in respect of any sum due from it to any Initial Purchaser or any person controlling any Initial Purchaser shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than United States dollars, not be discharged until the first business day following receipt by such Initial Purchaser or controlling person of any sum in such other currency, and only to the extent that such Initial Purchaser controlling person may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase United States dollars with such other currency. If the United States dollars so purchased are less than the sum originally due to such Initial Purchaser or controlling person hereunder, the Company and each Guarantor agrees as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Initial Purchaser or controlling person against such loss. If the United States dollars so purchased are greater than the sum originally due to such Initial Purchaser or controlling person hereunder, such Initial Purchaser or controlling person agrees to pay to the Company and the Guarantors (but without duplication) an amount equal to the excess of the dollars so purchased over the sum originally due to such Initial Purchaser or controlling person hereunder.

17. Taxes. If any sum payable by the Issuer or a Guarantor under this Agreement is subject to any deduction or withholding tax, tax in the hands of an Initial Purchaser or taken into account as a receipt in computing the taxable income of that Initial Purchaser (excluding net income taxes on underwriting commissions payable hereunder), the sum payable to the Initial Purchaser under this Agreement shall be increased to such sum as will ensure that the Initial Purchaser shall be left with the sum it would have had in the absence of such tax, provided that no such additional amounts shall be paid on account of (i) net income, franchise, and branch profits taxes, (ii) taxes that would not have been imposed but for the failure to provide, upon the reasonable request of the Company or a Guarantor, the Company or the Guarantors with any certification, form or other documentation (including without limitation the appropriate IRS Form W-8 or Form W-9), and (iii) any U.S. federal withholding taxes imposed under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, any treasury regulations thereunder or any related intergovernmental agreements and legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any such intergovernmental agreement.
