Commitments.  Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Eligible Borrowers may borrow, prepay and reborrow Alternative Currency Loans.

(b)                                 Each Alternative Currency Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Alternative Currency Loans of the same currency made by the Alternative Currency Lenders with respect to such currency to an Eligible Borrower with respect to such currency, with the Alternative Currency Loan of each Alternative Currency Lender being in an amount determined according to the ratio of its Alternative Currency Commitment with respect to such Alternative Currency to the total of all Alternative Currency Commitments with respect to such Alternative Currency.  The Alternative Currency Loans denominated in Sterling or Euro shall be Eurocurrency Loans; and the Alternative Currency Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars shall be CDOR Loans or Canadian Prime Loans.  The principal of and interest on each Alternative Currency Borrowing shall be paid in the currency in which such Alternative Currency Borrowing was denominated and shall be paid to the Applicable Agent for the ratable (relative to Loans made as a part of such Borrowing) account of the Alternative Currency Lenders with respect to such currency.

(c)                                  To request an Alternative Currency Loan, the Applicable Borrower shall notify the Applicable Agent of such request in writing (i) in the case of Alternative Currency Loans denominated in Sterling or Euro, not later than 11:00 a.m., London Time, four (4) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date; (ii) in the case of Alternative Currency Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars and that are Canadian Prime Loans, not later than 11:00 a.m. Toronto Time, one (1) Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing Date; and (iii) in the case of Alternative Currency Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars and that are CDOR Loans, not later than 11:00 a.m., Toronto Time, three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date.  The Applicable Agent will promptly advise the applicable Alternative Currency Lenders of any such notice received.

(d)                                 Each applicable Alternative Currency Lender shall make each Alternative Currency Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, Local Time, to the account of the Applicable Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the applicable Alternative Currency Lenders.  The Applicable Agent will make such Alternative Currency Loans available to the Applicable Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Applicable Borrower designated by such Borrower in the applicable Notice of Borrowing and acceptable to the Applicable Agent.

(e)                                  Revolving Loans made and Letters of Credit issued in the UK may be made only by Revolving Lenders and Issuing Banks that are, at the time of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit, legally entitled to do so in the UK, and Revolving Loans made and Letters of Credit issued in Canada may be made only by Revolving Lenders and Issuing Banks that are, at the time of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit, legally entitled to do so in Canada; provided, that Article III and Section 2.7(a)(i) shall apply.

(f)                                   Except as the Applicable Borrower and the applicable Alternative Currency Lenders may otherwise agree, Alternative Currency Loans may, at the conclusion of the Interest Period (if any) applicable thereto, be continued in the manner (to the extent

46

applicable) set forth in Section 3.1(b).  If the Applicable Borrower fails to either repay an Alternative Currency Loan on or before the last day of any applicable Interest Period or deliver a timely continuation request as set forth in Section 3.1(c), or if any Default or Event of Default exists and the Administrative Agent so notifies the Applicable Borrower, the applicable Borrowing shall be continued in such Alternative Currency with an Interest Period of one month’s duration commencing on the last day of the expiring Interest Period or as a Canadian Prime Loan in the case of a CDOR Loan.

(g)                                  Alternative Currency Lenders with Revolving Loans outstanding in any Alternative Currency may, by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., Houston Time, on any Business Day, require Revolving Lenders not having an Alternative Currency Commitment with respect to such currency (each, an “Other Lender”) to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Alternative Currency Loans denominated in such currency then outstanding.  Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of such Alternative Currency Loans in which such Other Lenders will participate.  Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give written notice thereof to each such Other Lender, specifying in such notice the percentage of such Alternative Currency Loan or Loans to be acquired by such Other Lender.  Each such Other Lender irrevocably agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Alternative Currency Lenders such Other Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the US Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency Loan or Loans; provided that no Revolving Lender shall be required to make payments under this sentence to the extent that doing so would cause the Revolving Credit Exposure of such Lender to exceed such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the Total Revolving Commitment; and provided further, that no Alternative Currency Lender will be required to make the payments under this sentence to the extent it already holds Alternative Currency Loans and LC Exposure in the affected currency in an aggregate amount equal to or in excess of its Alternative Currency Commitment with respect to such currency.  Each such Other Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Alternative Currency Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.  Each such Other Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds in the same manner provided in Section 2.5 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Lender (and Section 2.5 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of such Other Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each Alternative Currency Lender with Alternative Currency Loans in the affected currency such portions of the amount so received by it from the Other Lenders so that after giving effect thereto such Revolving Lenders (including such Alternative Currency Lenders) will hold direct interests in such Alternative Currency Loans in their respective Pro Rata Percentages.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Alternative Currency Loans acquired pursuant to this paragraph.  If an Alternative Currency Lender accepts an assignment pursuant to Section 13.9(b) of one or more Alternative Currency Loans of any currency, the Applicable Participation Percentages of the Alternative Currency Lenders with respect to such Loans will be adjusted, as applicable, immediately upon such assignment taking effect.

47

(h)                                 If any amount required to be paid by any Other Lender to an Alternative Currency Lender of the applicable currency pursuant to this Section 2.4 is not made available to such Alternative Currency Lender when due, such Other Lender shall pay to such Alternative Currency Lender, on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the greater of the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Applicable Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation for such currency for the period until such Other Lender makes such amount immediately available to such Alternative Currency Lender.  If and to the extent any Other Lender shall not have made such amount available to such Alternative Currency Lender within three (3) Business Days of such due date, such Alternative Currency Lender shall also be entitled to recover from such Other Lender such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum generally applicable to loans made by such Alternative Currency Lender to loans made by it to other borrowers in the same currency as such Alternative Currency, on demand.  A certificate of the Alternative Currency Lender submitted to any Other Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.4 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(i)                                     The amount of principal and interest paid on the Alternative Currency Loans prior to receipt of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be shared by the Alternative Currency Lenders of each currency pro rata based on the amount of the Alternative Currency Commitment of such currency of each Alternative Currency Lender (or if the Alternative Currency Commitments shall have terminated, based on the Alternative Currency Loans of the applicable currency held by each).  Whenever, at any time after the applicable Alternative Currency Lender has received from any Other Lender the full amount owing by such Other Lender pursuant to and in accordance with this Section 2.4 in respect of any Alternative Currency Loan, the Administrative Agent or such Alternative Currency Lender receives any payment related to such Alternative Currency Loan (whether directly from any Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Collateral applied thereto by such Alternative Currency Lender or the Administrative Agent, on behalf of such Alternative Currency Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Administrative Agent or such Alternative Currency Lender will distribute to each such Other Lender that shall have made its payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Alternative Currency Lenders its pro rata share thereof (and hereby directs the Administrative Agent to remit such pro rata share to such Other Lender out of any such payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Alternative Currency Lender).

(j)                                    If any payment received by an Alternative Currency Lender pursuant to this Section 2.4 with respect to any Alternative Currency Loan made by it shall be required to be returned by such Alternative Currency Lender, each Other Lender with respect to such Loan shall pay to such Alternative Currency Lender its Pro Rata Percentage thereof.

(k)                                 All outstanding Alternative Currency Loans shall be due and payable, to the extent not previously paid in accordance with the terms hereof, on the Maturity Date.

(l)                                     The initial Alternative Currency Commitments for each Alternative Currency are designated on Schedule 2.1.  Each Revolving Lender that is not designated an Alternative Currency Lender in Schedule 2.1 with respect to any currency on the Closing Date shall be or become an Alternative Currency Lender with respect to such currency on the initial day to occur after the Closing Date on which its lending of Revolving Loans of such currency is

48

not illegal, impossible or impracticable and does not result in costs or expenses for which such Lender would not be indemnified by the Applicable Borrower or the Borrower pursuant hereto, and on such day, it shall so promptly notify the Borrower (through the Administrative Agent).  Any Alternative Currency Lender may comply with its obligations as such by causing, as its agent, an Applicable Lending Installation to perform such obligations as contemplated by Section 2.2(c), and the terms of this Agreement shall be applicable to such Applicable Lending Installation as set forth in Section 2.2(c).

(m)                             In the event any Revolving Lender acting as an Alternative Currency Lender with respect to Revolving Loans denominated in any currency (i) ceases for any reason to qualify to be an Alternative Currency Lender with respect to such currency and notifies the Administrative Agent to such effect, or (ii) makes an assignment pursuant to Section 13.9(b) of all or part of its Alternative Currency Commitment with respect to such currency to a Lender that is not an Alternative Currency Lender with respect to such currency or (iii) determines in good faith and notifies the Administrative Agent that, pursuant to Article III or Section 2.7(a)(ii), as applicable, lending to the Applicable Borrower Loans in such currency would be illegal, impossible or impractical for such Lender or would result in costs or expenses for which such Lender would not be indemnified by the Applicable Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, (A) any applicable assignee shall not be an Alternative Currency Lender with respect to the affected currency, (B) the other Alternative Currency Lenders with respect to the affected currency may, in their sole discretion, accept an assignment of such Alternative Currency Lender’s Alternative Currency Loans in such currency, or (C) if such Alternative Currency Lenders decline to do so, upon receipt of notice to such effect from the Administrative Agent, the Applicable Borrower shall cause all Alternative Currency Loans in the affected currency by such Alternative Currency Lender to be repaid in full within five (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice (it being understood that following or contemporaneously with such repayment, the Applicable Borrower shall, subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, be entitled to reborrow such Alternative Currency Loans from the remaining Alternative Currency Lenders with respect to the same currency).

2.5.                            Funding of Borrowings.

(a)                                 Each Lender shall, before 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the Borrowing Date of any Borrowing, make available to the Applicable Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Applicable Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders, its Pro Rata Percentage of such Borrowing, if in US Dollars, or its Applicable Participation Percentage, if in an Alternative Currency, as requested by the Applicable Borrower in accordance with this Agreement; provided that Alternative Currency Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.4 and Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.6.  After the Applicable Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article VIII, on such Borrowing Date the Applicable Agent shall make such Borrowing available to the Applicable Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to the account of the Applicable Borrower designated by the Applicable Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request and reasonably acceptable to the Applicable Agent; provided that Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.7(d) shall be remitted by the Applicable Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank.  Any deposit to the Applicable Borrower’s designated account by the

49

Applicable Agent pursuant to a request (whether written or oral) believed in good faith by such Applicable Agent to be an authorized request by such Borrower for a Loan hereunder shall be deemed to be a Loan hereunder for all purposes with the same effect as if such Borrower had in fact requested such Applicable Agent to make such Loan.

(b)                                 Unless the Applicable Agent shall have received notice from a Lender (which must be received, except in the case of ABR Loans, at least one Business Day prior to the date of any Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Applicable Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage or Applicable Participation Percentage (as the case may be) of such Borrowing as and when required hereunder, the Applicable Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Applicable Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.5(a), and the Applicable Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Applicable Borrower on such date a corresponding amount.  The Applicable Agent shall give notice to the Applicable Borrower of any notice such Applicable Agent receives under this Section 2.5(b), provided that such Applicable Agent shall not be liable for the failure to give such notice.  If and to the extent any Lender shall not have made its full amount of the applicable Borrowing available to the Applicable Agent in immediately available funds and such Applicable Agent in such circumstances has made available to the Applicable Borrower such amount, such Lender and the Applicable Borrower severally agree to pay (without duplication) to the Applicable Agent on the Business Day following the applicable Borrowing Date such amount, together with interest thereon for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Applicable Borrower but excluding the date of repayment to such Applicable Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, (A) if denominated in US Dollars, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and the rate determined by the Applicable Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (B) if denominated in an Alternative Currency, a rate determined by the Applicable Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation to be the cost to it of funding such amount or (ii) in the case of the Applicable Borrower, (A) if denominated in US Dollars, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans plus the Applicable Margin and (B) if denominated in an Alternative Currency, the interest rate applicable to the subject Loan.  If such Lender pays such amount to the Applicable Agent, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.  A notice of the Applicable Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to amounts owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.  If such amount is so made available, such payment to the Applicable Agent shall constitute such Lender’s Loan on the applicable Borrowing Date for all purposes of this Agreement.

2.6.                            Swingline Loans.

(a)                                 Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Bank agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Borrower from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $5,000,000 or (ii) the Total Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding the Total Revolving Commitment; provided that the Swingline Bank shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan.  Each Swingline Loan shall be made in US Dollars and in an amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and shall bear interest at a rate

50

per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.  Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans.

(b)                                 To request a Swingline Loan, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy), not later than 12:00 noon, Houston Time, on the day of the proposed Swingline Loan; if such telephonic notice is received later than 12:00 noon, Houston Time, the request shall be deemed to be a request for a Swingline Loan to be made on the next Business Day.  Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan.  The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Bank of any such notice received from the Borrower.  The Swingline Bank shall make each Swingline Loan available to the Borrower by means of a credit to the general deposit account of the Borrower with the Swingline Bank (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.7(d), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank) by 2:00 p.m., Houston Time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.  The Borrower shall repay the principal amount of each Swingline Loan (together with all accrued and unpaid interest) no later than 2:00 p.m., Houston Time, on the date that is the earliest of (i) the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the fifteenth (15th) or last day of a calendar month and is at least three Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made and (ii) the Maturity Date; provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding.

(c)                                  The Swingline Bank may, at its option, by written notice to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m., Houston Time, on any Business Day, before or after the maturity of the Swingline Loan (regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has, or has not, occurred and is continuing) require the Revolving Lenders to acquire, without recourse or warranty, participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding.  Such notice from the Swingline Bank shall specify the aggregate principal amount of Swingline Loans in which Revolving Lenders will be required to participate.  Promptly upon receipt of such notice from the Swingline Bank, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans.  Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of such notice from the Administrative Agent properly delivered as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Bank, such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans.  Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that, subject to Section 2.6(e), upon receipt of such notice properly delivered, its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute, unconditional and irrevocable shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever, may not be terminated, suspended or delayed for any reason whatsoever, shall not be subject to qualification or exception and shall be made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.5(a) with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Sections 2.5(a) and 2.5(b) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the

51

Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter (i) payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Bank and (ii) the Revolving Lenders’ respective interests in such Swingline Loans, and the remaining interest of the Swingline Bank in such Swingline Loans, shall in all respects be treated as Revolving Loans under this Agreement, except that Swingline Loans shall be due and payable by the Borrower on the dates referred to in Section 2.6(b).  Any amounts received by the Swingline Bank from the Borrower (or other Person on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Bank of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Bank, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Bank or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason.  The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

(d)                                 If any Revolving Lender does not pay any amount that it is required to pay pursuant to this Section 2.6 and to the extent not otherwise provided for in Section 4.8 promptly upon the Swingline Bank’s demand therefor, (i) the Swingline Bank shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender, together with interest thereon, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for the first three Business Days, and thereafter at the Alternate Base Rate, for each day from the date of such demand, if made prior to 2:00 p.m., Houston Time, on any Business Day, or, if made at any later time, from the next Business Day following the date of such demand, until the date such amount is paid in full to the Swingline Bank by such Lender and (ii) the Swingline Bank shall be entitled to all interest payable by the Borrower to such Lender on such amount until the date on which such amount is received by the Swingline Bank from such Lender.  Without limiting any obligations of any Revolving Lender pursuant to this Section 2.6(d), but subject to Section 4.8, if any Revolving Lender does not pay such corresponding amount promptly upon the Swingline Bank’s demand therefor, the Swingline Bank shall notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall promptly repay such corresponding amount to the Swingline Bank together with accrued interest thereon at the applicable rate on such Swingline Loans.

(e)                                  No Revolving Lender shall be obligated to purchase a participation in any Swingline Loan pursuant to Section 2.6(c), if such Revolving Lender proves that (i) any one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 8.3 was not satisfied at the time such Swingline Loan was made (unless such condition was waived in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) and (ii) such Lender had notified the Swingline Bank in a writing received by the Swingline Bank at least one Business Day prior to the time that it made such Swingline Loan that the Swingline Bank was not authorized to make such Swingline Loan because any such condition was not satisfied and stating with specificity the reason therefor.

52

(a)                                 General.  Subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, including, without limitation, the applicable terms and conditions set forth in Article VIII, each Issuing Bank agrees that it will, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period following its receipt of a Letter of Credit Request, issue for the account of any Borrower, in the name of such Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, one or more irrevocable standby or commercial letters of credit, bank guarantees, or, as reasonably agreed to by the applicable Issuing Bank, other trade instruments, in each case, denominated in (i) to the extent requested by the Borrower, US Dollars or an Alternative Currency, (ii) to the extent requested by the Canadian Borrower, Canadian Dollars, and (iii) to the extent requested by the UK Borrower, US Dollars, Euro or Sterling (all such letters of credit collectively, the “Letters of Credit”); provided that no Issuing Bank shall issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit if:

(i)                                     at the time of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing, amending, renewing or extending such Letter of Credit or (B) any requirement of Law applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank (x) shall prohibit, or request or require that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular, (y) shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement not in effect on the Closing Date, or (z) shall impose upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and, in the case of either of the preceding clause (y) or (z), which such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it and for which the Applicable Borrower has not expressly and specifically agreed with such Issuing Bank in writing to compensate such Issuing Bank; or

(ii)                                  immediately after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the US Dollar Equivalent of (A) the Revolving Credit Exposure of such Issuing Bank would exceed such Issuing Bank’s Revolving Commitment, (B) the Total Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Commitment, (C) the total LC Exposure would exceed $60,000,000, (D) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure denominated in Alternative Currencies would exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit; (E) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure (in each case, denominated in the applicable Alternative Currency) shall exceed the aggregate of the applicable Alternative Currency Commitments; (F) the aggregate principal amount of all such Issuing Bank’s outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure in such Alternative Currency exceeding such Issuing Bank’s Alternative Currency Commitment with respect to that Alternative Currency; or (G) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure (in each case, denominated in the applicable Alternative Currency) would exceed the aggregate Alternative Currency Commitments with respect to that Alternative Currency; or

53

(iii)                               the expiry date of such Letter of Credit is a date that is later than the earlier of (A) twelve (12) months from the issuance date (or in the case of any renewal or extension, twelve (12) months after such renewal or extension) or (B) five (5) Business Days prior to the scheduled Maturity Date; provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the scheduled Maturity Date); or

(iv)                              the conditions set forth in Section 8.3 are not fulfilled to the satisfaction of such Issuing Bank as of the date of the proposed issuance of such Letter of Credit.

No Letter of Credit may be issued, or remain outstanding, for the account of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

(b)                                 Letter of Credit Requests.

(i)                                     Whenever a Borrower desires that a Letter of Credit be issued or that an existing Letter of Credit shall be amended, renewed or extended, it shall deliver to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Applicable Agent its prior written request therefor not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, at the location of the Applicable Agent, (i) in the case of a Letter of Credit to be issued or amended that is or is to be in US Dollars, not later than the second Business Day prior to the requested issuance or amendment date, (ii) in the case of a Letter of Credit to be issued or amended that is or is to be in Canadian Dollars, not later than the third Business Day prior to the requested issuance or amendment date, (iii) in the case of a Letter of Credit to be issued or amended that is or is to be in Euro or Sterling, not later than the third Business Day prior to the requested issuance or amendment date, and (iv) in the case of the extension of the existing expiry date of any Letter of Credit, not later than the third Business Day prior to the date on which such Issuing Bank must notify the beneficiary thereof that such Issuing Bank does not intend to extend such existing expiry date.  Each such request for an issuance, renewal, extension or amendment increasing the amount thereof shall be in the form of Exhibit D (a “Letter of Credit Request”) and, in the case of the issuance of any Letter of Credit, shall be accompanied by an Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of the applicable Issuing Bank, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as the applicable Issuing Bank or any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) may reasonably request.  Each Letter of Credit shall expire no later than the date specified in Section 2.7(a)(iii), shall not be in an amount greater than is permitted under Section (a) and shall be in such form as may be approved from time to time by the applicable Issuing Bank and the Applicable Borrower.  Promptly upon its receipt of a Letter of Credit Request, and, if applicable, the related Application, the Applicable Agent shall so notify the Revolving Lenders and the Administrative Agent.  It is agreed that an Application may be delivered by electronic transfer.

54

(ii)                                  The making of each Letter of Credit Request shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the Applicable Borrower that such Letter of Credit may be issued in accordance with, and will not violate the requirements of, this Agreement.  Unless an Issuing Bank has received notice from an Agent or any Revolving Lender (with a copy thereof to be simultaneously sent to the Borrower), before it issues or amends the respective Letter of Credit or renews or extends the existing expiry date of a Letter of Credit, that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 8.3 are not then satisfied, or that the issuance, renewal, extension or amendment of such Letter of Credit would violate this Agreement, such Issuing Bank may issue the requested Letter of Credit for the account of the Applicable Borrower in accordance with this Agreement and such Issuing Bank’s usual and customary practices; provided that no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than two (2) Business Days after its receipt of the Letter of Credit Request and the related Application therefor and all other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (i).  Upon its issuance of any Letter of Credit or the extension of the existing expiry date of any Letter of Credit, as the case may be, the applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such issuance or extension, which notice shall be accompanied by a copy of the Letter of Credit actually issued or a copy of any amendment extending the existing expiry date of any Letter of Credit, as the case may be.  Promptly upon its receipt of such documents, the Applicable Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender and the Administrative Agent of the issuance of such Letter of Credit or the extension of such expiry date, as the case may be, and shall deliver copies of such documents to each applicable Revolving Lender and the Administrative Agent.

(c)                                  Letter of Credit Participations.

(i)                                     By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or any Revolving Lender, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage, in each such Letter of Credit (including extensions of the expiry date thereof), each substitute letter of credit, each drawing made thereunder and the obligations of the Applicable Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect thereto, and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto.  Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Applicable Borrower on the date due or of any reimbursement payment in respect of an LC Disbursement required to be refunded to a Borrower for any reason.  Such payments by the Revolving Lenders shall be made in the currency in which such Letter of Credit was issued.  Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire

participations pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit, the occurrence and continuance of a Default, any reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments or any fluctuation in currency values, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(ii)                                  In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, an Issuing Bank shall have no obligation other than to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit.  Any action taken or omitted to be taken by an Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct shall not create for such Issuing Bank any resulting liability.  It is the intent of the parties hereto that no Issuing Bank shall have any liability for its ordinary sole or contributing negligence.

(iii)                               In the event that an Issuing Bank makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the Applicable Borrower shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.7(d)(i) or (ii), the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each applicable Revolving Lender of such failure, and each such Revolving Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such unreimbursed payment in same day funds and in the same currency.  If, prior to 11:30 a.m., Local Time, on any Business Day, the Administrative Agent so notifies any Revolving Lender required to fund a payment under a Letter of Credit, such Revolving Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same day funds and in the same currency.  If and to the extent such Revolving Lender shall not have so made its Pro Rata Percentage of the amount of such payment available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, and to the extent not otherwise provided for in Section 4.8, such Revolving Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank, forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank (i) in the case of LC Disbursements made in the US Dollars, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) if such LC Disbursement is made in an Alternative Currency, at a rate equal to the rate reasonably determined by the applicable Issuing Bank to be the cost to such Issuing Bank of funding such LC Disbursement plus the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Loans at such time.  The failure of any Revolving Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank its Pro Rata Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other Revolving Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank its Pro Rata

56

Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no Revolving Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Revolving Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank such other Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of any such payment.

(iv)                              Whenever an Issuing Bank receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation as to which the Applicable Agent has received for the account of such Issuing Bank any payments from the Lenders pursuant to clause (iii) above, such Issuing Bank shall pay to the Applicable Agent, and such Applicable Agent shall promptly pay to each Lender which has paid its Pro Rata Percentage thereof, in same day funds and in the same funds as those received by the Applicable Agent, an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage thereof.

(v)                                 The obligations of the Revolving Lenders to make payments to the Applicable Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank with respect to Letters of Credit shall be absolute and not subject to any qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including any of the following circumstances:

(A)                               any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;

(B)                               the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which any Borrower or any other Person may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), any Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Revolving Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the Applicable Borrower or any other Person and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit);

(C)                               any draft, certificate or any other document presented under the Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(D)                               the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents;

(E)                                the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default; or

(F)                                 any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Revolving Lender (other than the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Bank).

57

(vi)                              The Revolving Lenders agree to indemnify each Issuing Bank (to the extent not reimbursed by the Applicable Borrower), ratably according to their respective Pro Rata Percentages, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Issuing Bank in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any Letter of Credit issued by it or any action taken or omitted by such Issuing Bank under this Agreement or any Letter of Credit issued by it; provided that no Revolving Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from an Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(d)                                 Agreement to Repay Letter of Credit Drawings.

(i)                                     Upon the receipt by an Issuing Bank of any drawing from a beneficiary under a Letter of Credit, such Issuing Bank promptly will provide the Applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent with telecopy notice thereof.  The Applicable Borrower shall reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank by making payment to the Applicable Agent in the same currency as such drawing and in immediately available funds for any LC Disbursement at the account of the Applicable Agent identified to the Applicable Borrower, immediately after payment, and in any event (i) if the applicable Issuing Bank has notified the Applicable Borrower of the LC Disbursement by 10:00 a.m., Local Time, on the date of such payment, then by 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the date of such payment or (ii) if the applicable Issuing Bank has notified the Applicable Borrower of the LC Disbursement after 10:00 a.m., Local Time, on the date of such payment, then by 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the Business Day following such payment, in each case without setoff or counterclaim, with interest on the amount so paid by the Issuing Bank, to the extent not reimbursed prior to 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the date of such payment, from and including the date paid to but excluding the date reimbursement is made as provided above, at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (x) (A) if reimbursement is made prior to 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the Business Day following the date of such payment, in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in US Dollars, the Alternate Base Rate; in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars, the Canadian Prime Rate; or, in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in Euro or Sterling, a rate equal to the rate reasonably determined by the applicable Issuing Bank to be the cost to such Issuing Bank of funding such LC Disbursement or (B) if reimbursement is made at or after 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the Business Day following the date of such payment, 2% above the Alternate Base Rate, the Canadian Prime Rate or such cost of funds, as the case may be, plus, in each case, the Applicable Margin, and (y) the Highest Lawful Rate, such interest to be payable on demand.

(ii)                                  Prior to the Maturity Date, unless otherwise paid by the Borrower, such LC Disbursement may, subject to satisfaction of the conditions precedent set

58

forth in Section 2.3 and Section 8.3 (or, if the Majority Revolving Lenders so desire, shall automatically and without need for satisfaction of any such conditions precedent), be paid with the proceeds of Revolving Loans or Alternative Currency Loans, according to the currency in which such Letter of Credit was denominated, to be disbursed on the date of such LC Disbursement in an amount equal to the LC Disbursement.

(iii)                               The Applicable Borrower’s obligations under this Section (d) to reimburse each Issuing Bank with respect to LC Disbursements (including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances (except as provided below with respect to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the applicable Issuing Bank) and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Applicable Borrower may have or have had against any Revolving Lender (including such Issuing Bank in its capacity as the issuer of a Letter of Credit or any Lender as a participant therein), including any defense based upon the failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of the Letter of Credit (other than a defense based upon the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the applicable Issuing Bank in determining whether such drawing conforms to the terms of the Letter of Credit) or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such drawing, including any of the following circumstances:

(A)                               any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;

(B)                               the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which any Borrower or any other Person may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), any Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Revolving Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the Applicable Borrower or any other Person and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit);

(C)                               any draft, certificate or any other document presented under the Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(D)                               the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents;

(E)                                the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default; or

59

(F)                                 any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Borrower (other than the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the applicable Issuing Bank).

(iv)                              Each Borrower also agrees with the Issuing Banks, the Agents and the Revolving Lenders that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Issuing Bank, such Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for, and the Applicable Borrower’s reimbursement obligations under this Section (d) shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged or any dispute between or among any Borrower or any other party and the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Applicable Borrower or any other party against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee.  Neither any Agent, any Revolving Lender nor any Issuing Bank shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder, or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the Applicable Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Applicable Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.  The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination.  In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, an Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.  It is the intent of the parties hereto that neither any Agent, any Revolving Lender nor any Issuing Bank shall have any liability under this Section 2.7 for the ordinary negligence of such Person.

(v)                                 Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent (A) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews

60

or extends any Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit with respect to which such action was taken, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the Applicable Borrower for whose account the Letter of Credit was issued, and the currency and aggregate face amount of the Letters of Credit issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amount thereof shall have changed), it being understood that (1) with respect to any such issuance, renewal, extension or amendment that results in an increase in the amount of any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall, upon its receipt of the Applicable Borrower’s request therefor, request written confirmation from the Administrative Agent that such issuance, renewal, extension or amendment does not result in non- compliance with this Agreement and (2) the Administrative Agent shall promptly and in any event not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, at the location of the Applicable Agent, on the proposed effective date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, provide such confirmation or indication of non-compliance; (B) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date, currency and amount of such LC Disbursement, (C) on any Business Day on which the Applicable Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of the failure and the currency and amount of such LC Disbursement and (D) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent (or any Revolving Lender, through the Administrative Agent) shall reasonably request as to Letters of Credit.

(vi)                              If the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated pursuant to Article XI, all amounts (without duplication) (A) that any Borrower is at the time or becomes thereafter required to reimburse or otherwise pay to the Applicable Agent or any Issuing Bank in respect of LC Disbursements made under any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than amounts in respect of which such Borrower has deposited Cash Collateral, if such Cash Collateral was deposited in the applicable currency), (B) that the Revolving Lenders are at the time or become thereafter required to pay to the Applicable Agent (and the Applicable Agent is at the time or becomes thereafter required to distribute to an Issuing Bank) pursuant to Section 2.7(c) in respect of unreimbursed LC Disbursements made pursuant to any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency and (C) of each Revolving Lender’s participation in any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency under which an LC Disbursement has been made shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted into the US Dollar Equivalent calculated using the Spot Exchange Rate on such date (or in the case of any LC Disbursement made after such date, on the date such LC Disbursement is made) of such amounts.  On and after such conversion, all amounts accruing and owed to any Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank or any Revolving Lender in respect of the obligations described in this paragraph shall accrue and be payable in US Dollars at the rates otherwise applicable hereunder.

61

(vii)                           Unless otherwise agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank and the Applicable Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, (A) the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance) shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (B) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance, shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit.

(e)                                  All Letters of Credit listed on Schedule 2.7 and outstanding on the Closing Date shall be Letters of Credit issued hereunder on such dates and shall be governed in all respects by the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including Section 2.7(d)), without any further action by any Borrower, any Issuing Bank or any other Person.

2.8.                            Conflict between Applications and Agreement.  To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall control.

ARTICLE III
INTEREST RATE PROVISIONS

3.1.                            Interest Rate Determination.

(a)                                 Except as specified in Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5 and 3.7, the Loans shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding, until maturity, at the following rates:

(i)                                     (A) with respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in US Dollars or Sterling, the Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the lesser of (x) the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin, and (y) the applicable Highest Lawful Rate, if any; and (B) with respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Euro, the Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the lesser of (x) the Adjusted EURIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin and (y) the applicable Highest Lawful Rate, if any;

(ii)                                  with respect to any ABR Loan, the lesser of (y) the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin and (z) the applicable Highest Lawful Rate;

(iii)                               with respect to any CDOR Loan, the lesser of (y) the CDOR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such CDOR Loan plus the Applicable Margin and (z) the applicable Highest Lawful Rate;

(iv)                              with respect to any Canadian Prime Loan, the lesser of (y) the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Margin and (z) the applicable Highest Lawful Rate; and

62

(v)                                 with respect to any Swingline Loan, the lesser of (y) the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin and (z) the applicable Highest Lawful Rate.

The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate, Adjusted EURIBO Rate, CDOR Rate and Canadian Prime Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Interest shall be calculated based on a year of 360 days, except that (i) interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day), (ii) interest computed with reference to the Canadian Prime Rate and the CDOR Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day and excluding the last day) and (iii) with respect to any Alternative Currency as to which a 365 or 366 day year, as the case may be, is customarily used as a basis for such calculation, interests with respect to Loans denominated in such Alternative Currency shall be computed on such basis.  Interest in all cases shall be calculated and payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(b)                                 Provided that no Default or Event of Default then exists, any Borrower may, upon irrevocable written notice to the applicable Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 3.1(c),

(i)                                     elect to convert, as of any Business Day, any ABR Loans (or any part thereof equal to the relevant Borrowing Minimum or an integral multiple of the relevant Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof) into Eurocurrency Loans;

(ii)                                  elect to convert, as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, any Eurocurrency Loans expiring on such day (or any part thereof equal to the relevant Borrowing Minimum or an integral multiple of the relevant Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof) into ABR Loans; or

(iii)                               elect to continue (for the same or a different Interest Period), as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, any Eurocurrency Loans having Interest Periods expiring on such day (or any part thereof equal to the relevant Borrowing Minimum or an integral multiple of the relevant Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof);

(iv)                              elect to convert, as of any Business Day, any Canadian Prime Loans (or any part thereof equal to the relevant Borrowing Minimum or an integral multiple of the relevant Borrowing Minimum in excess thereof) into CDOR Loans;

(v)                                 elect to convert, as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, any CDOR Loans expiring on such day (or any part thereof equal to the relevant Borrowing Minimum or an integral multiple of the relevant Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof) into Canadian Prime Loans; or

63

(vi)                              elect to continue (for the same or a different Interest Period), as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, any CDOR Loans having Interest Periods expiring on such day (or any part thereof equal to the relevant Borrowing Minimum or an integral multiple of the relevant Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof);

provided that, if at any time the outstanding principal amount of Eurocurrency Loans is reduced by payment, prepayment, or conversion of part thereof to be less than the Borrowing Minimum for Eurocurrency Loans, such Eurocurrency Loans, if in US Dollars, shall automatically convert into ABR Loans and if in Sterling or Euro, shall automatically convert into Loans bearing interest at such rate as the Administrative Agent determines adequately reflects the costs of the applicable Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans, and on and after such date the right of the applicable Borrower to continue such Loans as, and convert such Loans into, Eurocurrency Loans shall terminate; provided further, that if at any time the outstanding principal amount of CDOR Loans is reduced by payment, prepayment, or conversion of part thereof to be less than the Borrowing Minimum for CDOR Loans, such CDOR Loans shall automatically convert into Canadian Prime Loans, and on and after such date the right of the applicable Borrower to continue such Loans as, and convert such Loans into, CDOR Loans shall terminate.  The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or Canadian Prime Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

The Applicable Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.  This Section shall not apply to Swingline Loans, which may not be converted or continued.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no Borrower shall be permitted to change the currency of any Borrowing or to convert any Borrowing to a Type not permitted to be elected by it pursuant to this Agreement.

No Interest Period may be elected that would end later than the scheduled Maturity Date.

No Interest Period may be elected if such election would require the Administrative Agent to administer concurrently a combination of elective rates based on the Adjusted LIBO Rate and/or a combination of Interest Periods that exceed an aggregate of ten (10).

(c)                                  To convert or continue a Loan as provided in Section 3.1(b), the Applicable Borrower shall deliver a Notice of Rate Change/Continuation in the form of Exhibit E (a “Notice of Rate Change/Continuation”), to the Applicable Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, at least (i) three Business Days in advance of the Change/Continuation Date, if such Loan is to be converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency Loan or CDOR Loan and is denominated in US Dollars or Canadian Dollars, (ii) four Business Days in advance of the Change/Continuation Date, if such Loan is denominated in an Alternative Currency other than Canadian Dollars; and (iii) one Business Day in advance of the Change/Continuation Date, if such Loan is to be converted into an ABR Loan or Canadian Prime Loan, specifying:

64

(i)                                     the date on which such Loan was made;

(ii)                                  the interest rate then applicable to such Loan;

(iii)                               with respect to any Eurocurrency Loan or CDOR Loan, the Interest Period then applicable to such Loan;

(iv)                              the amount of such Loan;

(v)                                 the currency in which such Loan was denominated;

(vi)                              the proposed Change/Continuation Date;

(vii)                           the aggregate principal amount of such Loans to be converted or continued;

(viii)                        the Type of Loans resulting from the proposed conversion or continuation; and

(ix)                              if the resulting Loans are Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans, the Interest Period to be applicable to such Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans, after giving effect to the proposed conversion or continuation, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period.”

(d)                                 If, upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans, (i) the Applicable Borrower has failed to repay such Loans or to select a new Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans prior to the applicable Business Day in advance of the Expiration Date of the current Interest Period applicable thereto as provided in Section 3.1(c), or (ii) any Default or Event of Default exists and the Administrative Agent so notifies the Borrower, the Applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert any such Eurocurrency Loans denominated in US Dollars into ABR Loans or such CDOR Loans into Canadian Prime Loans, as the case may be, effective as of the Expiration Date of such Interest Period, and all conditions to such conversion shall be deemed to have been satisfied (unless such Loans are denominated in Sterling or Euro, in which case such Loans shall be continued as Eurocurrency Loans with an Interest Period of one month’s duration commencing on the last day of such Interest Period).

(e)                                  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender of its receipt of a Notice of Rate Change/Continuation, or, if no timely notice is provided by the Applicable Borrower, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Applicable Borrower and each applicable Lender of the details of any automatic conversion.  All conversions and continuations shall be made ratably according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans with respect to which the notice was given held by each Lender.

(f)                                   During the existence of a Default or Event of Default, (i) no Borrower may elect to have any Borrowing converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Borrowing denominated in Canadian Dollars converted into or continued as a CDOR Borrowing, as the case may be, (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in US Dollars

65

shall be converted into an ABR Borrowing, and each CDOR Loan shall be converted into a Canadian Prime Loan, in each case at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto; and (iii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than Canadian Dollars) shall be continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing of the same Type with an Interest Period of one month.

(g)                                  Nothing herein shall authorize any Borrower to continue or change the interest rate applicable to any Eurocurrency Loan or CDOR Loan prior to the expiration of the Interest Period with respect thereto.  No Alternative Currency Borrowing may be converted to an ABR Borrowing and no Borrowing denominated in one currency may be converted to another currency.

(h)                                 Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary (other than Section 13.10) if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by a Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount, from time to time outstanding, shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal on any Loan, the lesser of (x) 2% above the interest rate otherwise applicable to such Loan and (y) the Highest Lawful Rate, or (ii) in the case of any other amount, the lesser of (x) 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans at such time and (y) the Highest Lawful Rate.

(i)                                     Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination in full of the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to subsection (h) of this Section 3.1 shall be due on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan or CDOR Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued and unpaid interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.  All interest shall be paid in the currency in which the applicable Loan is denominated.

(j)                                    The Alternate Base Rate for each ABR Loan shall be determined by the Administrative Agent on the first day and on each day such ABR Loan shall be outstanding, or if such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day.  The LIBO Rate or EURIBO Rate, as the case may be, for the Interest Period for each Eurocurrency Loan shall be determined by the Administrative Agent on the respective Quotation Date.  The Canadian Prime Rate for each Canadian Prime Loan shall be determined by the Administrative Agent on the first day and on each day such Canadian Prime Loan shall be outstanding, or if such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day.  The CDOR Rate for the Interest Period for each CDOR Loan shall be determined by the Administrative Agent on the first day of such Interest Period.

(k)                                 Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error.

66

3.2.                            Increased Cost and Reduced Return.

(a)                                 If any Change in Law:

(i)                                     shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or other similar requirement against assets, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement (including the Mandatory Costs) included in the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the Adjusted EURIBO Rate) or an Issuing Bank; or

(ii)                                  shall impose on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the London, European, or Canadian interbank markets any other condition affecting this Agreement or the Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein or in any Alternative Currency Loan;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting into, continuing, or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans (or of maintaining its obligation to make a Eurocurrency Loan or CDOR Loan or to participate in an Alternative Currency Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (including maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Bank under this Agreement, in each case by an amount deemed material by such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, then, upon request of such Lender or Issuing Bank, the Applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such increased cost incurred or reduction suffered; provided that the Applicable Borrower will not be responsible for paying any amounts pursuant to this Section 3.2(a) accruing for a period greater than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, through the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s, as the case may be, intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions are retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(b)                                 If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or such Issuing Bank or any company controlling such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Alternative Currency Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall notify the Borrower through the Administrative Agent and from time to time the Applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, as the case may be, for such reduction,

67

provided that the Applicable Borrower will not be responsible for paying any amounts pursuant to this Section 3.2(b) accruing for a period greater than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s, as the case may be, intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions are retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(c)                                  Each Lender and each Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower (through the Administrative Agent) and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to compensation pursuant to this Section 3.2, and will use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if such designation or assignment will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the judgment of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, be otherwise disadvantageous to it.  The Applicable Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or any Issuing Bank, as the case may be, in connection with any such designation or assignment.  Any Lender or any Issuing Bank, as the case may be, claiming compensation under this Section 3.2 shall do so in good faith on a nondiscriminatory basis.  In determining such amount, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.  A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, as the case may be, setting forth in reasonable detail such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, as specified in this Section 3.2 may be delivered to the Applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Applicable Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within fifteen (15) days after its receipt of the same.

(d)                                 Notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents to the contrary, any Revolving Lender may, in its sole discretion, fund Revolving Loans denominated in Sterling from a lending office located in the UK.  In such case, the Applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender, together with and as and when interest (calculated at the rate otherwise applicable under this Agreement) on such Loans is due and payable, any and all Mandatory Costs (to the extent not already included in such interest rate) due or payable by such lending office for the cost of complying with the requirements of the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority, or any other Governmental Authority, as the case may be, which results from funding or maintaining such Loans from such lending office.  If at any time a Lender shall reasonably determine after a Change in Law that the Mandatory Costs (calculated as provided in this Agreement) shall fail to represent the actual cost to such Lender or its applicable lending office of complying with the requirements of the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority, or any other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over it, as the case may be, with respect to the funding and maintenance of advances in an Alternative Currency, in each case by an amount deemed material by such Lender, then the Applicable Borrower shall, upon the request of such Lender, pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred.

68

(e)                                  (i) For so long as any Lender is required to comply with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority succeeding to all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank (or any other authority succeeding to all or any of its functions), but without duplicating amounts included in the Statutory Reserve Rate or Mandatory Costs, in each case in respect of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans or by virtue of extending credit in Sterling or Euro to a Borrower, such Borrower shall pay, in addition to interest otherwise due on each of such Loans, additional interest on such Loan in an amount equal to the cost to such Lender of complying with such requirements.

(ii)  For so long as any Lender is required to comply with reserve assets, liquidity, cash margin or other requirements of any monetary or other authority (including any such requirement imposed by the European Central Bank or the European System of Central Banks (or other authority succeeding to all or any of the functions of either), but without duplicating amounts included in the Statutory Reserve Rate or the Mandatory Costs) in respect of any of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans or by virtue of extending credit in Sterling or Euro to a Borrower, such Borrower shall pay, in addition to interest on each of such Lender’s Loans subject to such requirements, additional interest on such Loan at a rate per annum specified by such Lender to be the cost to such Lender of complying with such requirements in relation to such Loan.

(iii)  Any additional interest owed pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above shall be determined in reasonable detail by the applicable Lender, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and notified to the Applicable Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) at least five (5) Business Days before each date on which interest is payable for the applicable Loan, and such additional interest so notified to the Applicable Borrower by such Lender shall be payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender on each date on which interest is payable for such Loan.  In no event shall any amounts determined pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above be duplicative of any amount owed by an Applicable Borrower hereunder.

3.3.                            Limitation on Types of Loans.  If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Loan or CDOR Loan:

(a)                                 the Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive) that for any reason it has become impossible or impracticable to determine the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the Adjusted EURIBO Rate, or the CDOR Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or the Majority Lenders determine (which determination shall be conclusive) and notify the Administrative Agent that the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the Adjusted EURIBO Rate or the CDOR Rate, as the case may be, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of making or maintaining such Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans, as applicable, for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower and the Lenders prompt notice thereof, and until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) the Lenders shall be under no obligation to maintain their commitment to make, or to make, additional Eurocurrency Loans of any affected Type or CDOR Loans for, continue Eurocurrency Loans of any affected Type or CDOR Loans for, or convert

69

ABR Loans into Eurocurrency Loans of any affected Type or Canadian Prime Loans into CDOR Loans for, such Interest Period, (ii) on the last day(s) of the then-current Interest Period(s) for any outstanding Eurocurrency Loans of each affected Type and Interest Period or CDOR Loans, as applicable, (A) the Applicable Borrower shall either (y) prepay such Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans, as applicable, or (z) convert such Eurocurrency Loans denominated in US Dollars into ABR Loans, and such CDOR Loans into Canadian Prime Loans, and (B) any Eurocurrency Loans of each affected Type denominated in Sterling or Euro shall bear interest at such rate as the Applicable Agent shall determine adequately and fairly reflects the cost of each affected Lender of making or maintaining its Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or continue such Loans for an Interest Period not so affected, (iii) any Notice of Rate Change/Continuation that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing of any affected Type or CDOR Borrowing, as applicable, for such Interest Period shall be ineffective, and (iv) if any Notice of Borrowing requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing in US Dollars (if such Eurocurrency Borrowing is the affected Type) or a CDOR Borrowing, as applicable, for such Interest Period, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing or a Canadian Prime Borrowing, as applicable, and if any Notice of Borrowing requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing in Sterling or Euro (if such Eurocurrency Borrowing is the affected Type), as applicable, for such Interest Period, such Borrowing shall bear interest at such rate as the Applicable Agent shall determine adequately and fairly reflects the cost to the affected Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin.  Each Lender will use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if such designation or assignment will avoid the effects of this Section 3.3 and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to it.  The Applicable Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

3.4.                            Illegality.

(a)                                 If any Lender shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Applicable Borrower, absent manifest error) that any Change in Law makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over it asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender to make, continue or maintain any Eurocurrency Loan at the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the Adjusted EURIBO Rate, as the case may be, or CDOR Loan, as the case may be, in US Dollars, Canadian Dollars or any other Alternative Currency, as, or to convert any Loan into, a Eurocurrency Loan at the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the Adjusted EURIBO Rate, as the case may be, or CDOR Loan, as applicable, the obligations of the affected Lender to make, continue, maintain or convert any such Eurocurrency Loan or CDOR Loan shall, on notice thereof from such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) to the Borrower, upon such determination, forthwith be suspended at the end of the then current Interest Periods with respect thereto (or sooner, if required by such law or assertion (in which case the provisions of Section 3.5 shall be applicable)) until such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.  All Eurocurrency Loans of the affected Type from such Lender denominated in US Dollars shall be converted to ABR Loans and all CDOR Loans from such Lender shall be converted to Canadian

70

Prime Loans, as applicable, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans.  If such Eurocurrency Loan is denominated in any Alternative Currency, it shall be exchanged into its US Dollar Equivalent amount and be converted into a ABR Loan.  Upon any such conversion, the Applicable Borrower shall also pay interest on the amount so converted.  If any such conversion of a Eurocurrency Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Applicable Borrower shall also pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 3.5.

(b)                                 Each Lender will use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if such designation or assignment will avoid the effects of this Section 3.4 and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to it.  The Applicable Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(c)                                  If the obligation of any Lender to make a Eurocurrency Loan or CDOR Loan or to maintain, continue, or to convert Loans into, Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to this Section 3.4, then, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and this Agreement, such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans shall be converted into ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Loans, as applicable, as provided above, and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in this Section 3.4 that gave rise to such conversion no longer exist:

(i)                                     to the extent that such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans have been so converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans shall be applied instead to its ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Loans, as applicable; and

(ii)                                  all Loans that would otherwise be made by such Lender as Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans shall be made instead as ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Loans, as applicable, all Loans that would otherwise be continued by such Lender as Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans shall be converted instead into ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Loans, as applicable, and all Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be converted into Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans shall instead remain as ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Loans, as applicable.

If such Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the circumstances specified in this Section 3.4 that gave rise to the conversion of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans pursuant to this Section 3.4 no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, such Lender’s ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Loans, as applicable, shall be automatically converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding Eurocurrency Loans or

71

CDOR Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding Eurocurrency Loans or CDOR Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types, and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.

3.5.                            Compensation.  Upon the request of any Lender, and except as expressly provided herein, the Applicable Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Lender) to compensate it for any loss, cost, or expense (including loss of anticipated profits) incurred by it as a result of

(a)                                 any payment, prepayment, or conversion of a Eurocurrency Loan or CDOR Loan for any reason (including the acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Article XI) on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Loan or CDOR Loan;

(b)                                 any failure by any Borrower for any reason (including, without limitation, the failure of any condition precedent specified in Article VIII to be satisfied) to borrow, convert, continue, or prepay a Eurocurrency Loan or a CDOR Loan on the date for such borrowing, conversion, continuation, or prepayment specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto; or

(c)                                  the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan or CDOR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a requirement by any Borrower pursuant to Section 3.6 or the CAM Exchange.

In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan or CDOR Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the Adjusted EURIBO Rate or CDOR Rate, as applicable, that would have been applicable to such Loan plus the Applicable Margin that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then- current Interest Period therefor (or in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in the applicable currency of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the applicable interbank market.  A certificate of any Lender setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 3.5 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

3.6.                            Replacement of Lenders.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.2 or 4.9, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or otherwise has given notice pursuant to Section 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 (unless in each case the basis for such request or notice is generally applicable to all Lenders), or does not consent to any request by the Borrower to extend the then-scheduled Maturity Date, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent within ninety (90) days of such request or notice, if no Default or Event of Default exists, require such Lender to assign and delegate without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 13.9), all its interests,

72

rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (a) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 13.9(b)(ii)(C), (b) the Borrower shall have received the applicable consents specified in Section 13.9(b), (c) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, and accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (subject in each case to Section 4.8), from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts); (d) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.2 or 4.9, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments; (e) in the case of any such assignment resulting from the failure to provide a consent to extend the then-scheduled Maturity Date, the assignee shall have given such consent and, as a result of such assignment and any contemporaneous assignments and consents, the number of Lenders necessary to effect such amendment has been obtained; and (f) such assignment does not violate applicable Law.  A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.  Each party hereto agrees that any assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto.

3.7.                            Yearly Rate.  Whenever interest hereunder is by the terms hereof to be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days (or 365 days during a year of 366 days), the rate of interest applicable under this Agreement to such calculation expressed as an annual rate for the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) is equivalent to such rate as so calculated multiplied by the number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 360 (or 365), as applicable.

3.8.                            Survival.  The agreements contained in this Article III shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment in full of the Obligations for a period of 180 days thereafter.

ARTICLE IV
PREPAYMENTS AND OTHER PAYMENTS; REDUCTION AND EXPANSION OF COMMITMENTS

4.1.                            Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a)                                 (i) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (without duplication) (A) to the Applicable Agent for the account of each applicable Revolving Lender the then- unpaid principal amount of each of such Borrower’s Revolving Loans on the Maturity Date, and (B) to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Banks all LC Disbursements made pursuant to Letters of Credit issued to such Borrower, as provided in Section 2.7(d), (ii) the Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Term Loan Lenders (A) the principal amount of the Term Loans in

73

installments payable on the last Business Day of each Fiscal Quarter during the term of this Agreement, commencing on the last day of the first full Fiscal Quarter after the Term Loan Borrowing Date, with each such principal installment being in the aggregate principal amount for all Term Loan Lenders of two and one-half percent (2.5%) of the original aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans and (B) the then unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans on the Maturity Date and (iii) the Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Swingline Bank the then-unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the date such Swingline Loan is due pursuant to Section 2.6.

(b)                                 Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(c)                                  The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class, Type and currency thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by an Applicable Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders (or any subset thereof) and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d)                                 The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to subsection (b) or (c) of this Section 4.1 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of an Applicable Borrower to repay the Loans received by it in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e)                                  Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note.  In such event, each Applicable Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit B, payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns).  Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 13.9) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

4.2.                            Required Prepayments.

(a)                                 In the event the sum of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans denominated in US Dollars, the LC Exposure with respect to Letters of Credit denominated in US Dollars and the Swingline Exposure exceeds the Total Revolving Commitment, the Borrower will make a prepayment of principal of any one or more of such Revolving Loans (in the Borrower’s sole discretion), in an amount at least equal to such excess, together with (i) interest accrued and unpaid hereon to the date of such prepayment and (ii) all amounts due, if any, under Section 3.5 (or, if no such Revolving Loans are then outstanding, deposit Cash Collateral in an amount with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.2 in

74

an aggregate amount equal to such excess as Cash Collateral for the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower).

(b)                                 The Administrative Agent will determine the US Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate LC Exposure and of each Alternative Currency Loan on each Spot Currency Determination Date.  In the event that the Administrative Agent determines that the US Dollar Equivalent of the Total Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds the Total Revolving Commitment, or that the US Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate Alternative Currency Exposures of any Alternative Currency exceeds the total Alternative Currency Commitments with respect to such Alternative Currency, or that the US Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate Alternative Currency Exposures exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit, then it will notify the Borrower and the Borrower will (or will cause one or more Subsidiary Borrowers to), within two (2) Business Days following such notice, make a prepayment of principal of any one or more Revolving Loans (in the Borrower’s sole discretion), in an amount at least equal to such excess, together with (i) interest accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of such prepayment and (ii) all amounts due, if any, under Section 3.5 (or, if no Revolving Loans are then outstanding, deposit Cash Collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.2 in an aggregate amount equal to such excess as Cash Collateral for the reimbursement obligations of such Borrower).

4.3.                            Optional Prepayments.  Each Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay the Loans made to it, in whole or in part; provided that each partial prepayment of any Loan shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least the relevant Borrowing Minimum or any Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof (provided that the resulting Loan shall be in an amount at least the relevant Borrowing Minimum, unless prepaid completely), in each case together with (y) interest accrued thereon to the date of such prepayment and (z) all amounts due, if any, under Section 3.5.  In connection with each voluntary prepayment the Applicable Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan or Alternative Currency Loan, the Swingline Bank or Alternative Currency Lenders) with notice of its intention to prepay,

(i)                                     no later than 11:00 a.m. Local Time on the date of prepayment in the case of ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Loans,

(ii)                                  no later than 11:00 a.m. Houston Time three (3) Business Days prior to the date of prepayment in the case of Eurocurrency Loans denominated in US Dollars,

(iii)                               no later than (y) 11:00 a.m. London Time four (4) Business Days prior to the date of prepayment in the case of Eurocurrency Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, or (z) 11:00 a.m. Toronto Time three (3) Business Days prior to the date of prepayment in the case of CDOR Loans, and

(iv)                              no later than 11:00 a.m. Houston Time on the date of prepayment in the case of Swingline Loans.

75

Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid, the prepayment date and the account of the Applicable Borrower to be charged if such prepayment is to be so effected.  Notice of such prepayment having been given, the principal amount of the Loans specified in such notice, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of prepayment, shall become due and payable on such prepayment date.  If such Borrower pays or prepays any Eurocurrency Loan or CDOR Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, such payment shall be subject to Section 3.5.  Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof.  Each prepayment shall be applied to each Borrowing (and within each such Borrowing, ratably to the Loans therein) designated in the corresponding notice of prepayments.  Optional prepayments of the Revolving Loans shall be made without reduction in the Revolving Commitments, unless so elected by the Borrower in accordance with Section 4.10(b), and optional payments of the Term Loans shall be applied in inverse order of maturity of scheduled principal payments thereunder (including the final payment due on the Maturity Date).

4.4.                            No Prepayment Premium or Penalty.  Each prepayment pursuant to Section 4.2 or 4.3 shall be without premium or penalty but shall be subject to Section 3.5.

4.5.                            Payments and Prepayments.

(a)                                 All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim.  All payments and prepayments made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 3.2, 3.5 or 4.9) shall be made no later than the time expressly required hereunder for such payment (or, if no time is expressly required, no later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the day when due), in immediately available funds, to the Applicable Agent, for the account of the relevant Lenders or the relevant Issuing Bank, to an account that the Applicable Agent shall have identified in a notice delivered to the Applicable Borrower, except payments to be made for the account of an Issuing Bank or Swingline Bank shall be made as expressly provided herein and except that all payments pursuant to Sections 3.2, 3.4, 3.5, 4.9 and 13.12 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto, no later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, with notice of each such payment being given to the Administrative Agent.  All payments hereunder of principal or interest in respect of any Loan (or of any breakage indemnity in respect of any Loan) or LC Disbursements shall be made in the currency of such Loan or LC Disbursement; all other payments hereunder shall be made in US Dollars.

(b)                                 Unless (i) otherwise set forth herein with respect to Defaulting Lenders or (ii) the Applicable Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to such Applicable Agent for the account of any Lender or any Issuing Bank that the Applicable Borrower will not make such payment in full, such Applicable Agent may assume that such Applicable Borrower has made such payment in full to such Applicable Agent on such date and such Applicable Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to) cause to be distributed to each Lender or Issuing Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due.  If and to the extent the Applicable Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to such Applicable Agent, each Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case

may be, severally agrees to repay to such Applicable Agent forthwith on demand the amount distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, together with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until but excluding the date such Lender or such Issuing Bank repays such amount to such Applicable Agent, (y) in the case of an amount denominated in US Dollars, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by such Applicable Agent in accordance banking industry rules on interbank compensation, and (z) in the case of an amount denominated in an Alternative Currency, a rate reasonably determined by such Applicable Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(c)                                  The Applicable Agent shall promptly remit to each Lender its Pro Rata Percentage or Applicable Participation Percentage (as the case may be) with respect to the Loan or Loans being prepaid of payments received by it pursuant to Section 4.5(a) in immediately available funds, except that all reimbursement payments in respect of losses, expenses, funding losses or the like shall be retained by the Applicable Agent or remitted to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks according to their respective appropriate entitlement to such reimbursement and, in each case, except as otherwise provided herein with respect to Defaulting Lenders.  Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including any notice of prepayment), payments and prepayments shall be applied (i) first to accrued and unpaid fees (to the extent then payable), then (ii) to accrued and unpaid interest (to the extent then payable), then (iii) to the payment of unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, then (iv) to the principal of ABR Loans and Canadian Prime Loans, and (v) then to the principal of Eurocurrency and CDOR Loans (and among CDOR Loans and Eurocurrency Loans, first to those with the earliest expiring Interest Periods).

(d)                                 If and to the extent that the Administrative Agent receives any payment or prepayment from the Borrowers and fails to distribute such payment or prepayment to the applicable Lenders ratably on the basis of their respective Pro Rata Percentages or Applicable Participation Percentages (as the case may be) with respect to the Class of the Loan or Loans being prepaid on the day the Administrative Agent receives such payment or prepayment (or, if the Administrative Agent receives the same after 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the immediately following Business Day), and such distribution shall not be so made by the Administrative Agent in full on the required day, the Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender interest on the amount owed each Lender at the rate determined by the Administrative Agent to be its cost of funds for each day from the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent by the Applicable Borrower until the date the Administrative Agent pays such amount to such Lender.  Notwithstanding the Administrative Agent’s failure to so distribute any such payment, as between the Borrowers, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, such payment shall be deemed received and collected as provided in Section 4.5(a).

(e)                                  No party hereto (or guarantor thereof) shall be liable to any other party hereto (or guarantor thereof) in any way whatsoever for any delay, or the consequences of any delay, in the crediting to any account of any amount required by this Agreement to be paid by the Administrative Agent if the Administrative Agent shall have taken all relevant steps to achieve, on the date required by this Agreement, the payment of such amount in immediately available, freely transferable, cleared funds in US Dollars to the account with the bank in the principal financial center which the Applicable Borrower or, as the case may be, any Lender or Issuing

77

Bank shall have specified for such purpose.  In this subsection (e), “all relevant steps” means all such steps as may be prescribed from time to time by the regulations or operating procedures or such clearing or settlement system as the Administrative Agent may from time to time determine for the purpose of clearing or settling payments of US Dollars.

(f)                                   If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (unless, in the case of Eurocurrency Borrowings or CDOR Borrowings, the result of such extension of time would be to extend the date of such payment into another calendar month or beyond the scheduled Maturity Date, and in either such event such payment shall be made on the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such payment would otherwise have been due), and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.

4.6.                            Sharing of Set-offs.  If any Lender or Issuing Bank shall, by exercising any right of set off or counterclaim pursuant to Section 13.8 or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Credit Exposure, Term Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender with respect to its Revolving Credit Exposure or Term Loans, then the Lender or Issuing Bank receiving such greater proportion shall notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Credit Exposure and Term Loans of other Lenders, as applicable, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the applicable Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of such obligations then due and payable to the applicable Lenders; provided that (a) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (b) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any of the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Revolving Credit Exposure or Term Loans to any permitted assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).  Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Applicable Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Applicable Borrower in the amount of such participation.

4.7.                            Cash Collateral.  At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender, within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 4.8(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount equal to such Fronting Exposure as of such date.

78

(a)                                 Grant of Security Interest.  The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Banks, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit, to be applied pursuant to clause (b) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Fronting Exposure as of such date, the Borrower will, within two Business Days following demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (as giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(b)                                 Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 4.7 or Section 4.8 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(c)                                  Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 4.7 following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), and upon the occurrence of such event and written notice to the Administrative Agent from the Borrower, the Cash Collateral provided by the Borrower shall be promptly returned to the Borrower, in each case, free and clear of all Liens, or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank that there exists excess Cash Collateral, and upon the occurrence of such event and written notice to the Administrative Agent from the Borrower, such excess Cash Collateral shall be promptly returned to the Borrower, in each case, free and clear of all Liens, to the extent such amount was provided by the Borrower; provided that, subject to Section 4.8 the Person providing Cash Collateral and each Issuing Bank may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

4.8.                            Defaulting Lenders.

(a)                                 Defaulting Lender Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law:

(i)                                     Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this

79

Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definitions of Majority Lenders or Majority Revolving Lenders, as applicable.

(ii)                                  Defaulting Lender Waterfall.  Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by any Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article XI or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 13.8 shall be, if received by any Agent other than the Administrative Agent, remitted by such Agent to the Administrative Agent and then applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows:  first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agents hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Bank hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 4.7 (provided that, to the extent there exists Cash Collateral deposited by the Borrower with respect to such Fronting Exposure, following such Cash Collateralization pursuant to this clause third, any excess amount, as determined by the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank, shall be returned to the Borrower in accordance with Section 4.7(c)(ii)); fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 4.7; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Bank as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Bank against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 8.3 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in

80

Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Percentages or Applicable Participation Percentages, as the case may be, without giving effect to Section 4.8(a)(iv).  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts owed paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) or pay amounts owned by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 4.8(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii)                               Certain Fees.  (A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 5.1 for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(B)                               Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 4.7.

(C)                               With respect to any Letter of Credit Fees not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (B) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Revolving Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Bank, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s or the Swingline Bank’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv)                              Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans, if any, shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Percentages or Applicable Participation Percentage, as the case may be (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment), but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 8.3 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Revolving Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment.  No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender

81

arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Revolving Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Revolving Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v)                                 Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swingline Loans.  If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Bank’s Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4.7.

(b)                                 Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Bank and each Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Percentages or Applicable Participation Percentages, as the case may be (without giving effect to Section 4.8(a)(ii)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c)                                  New Swingline Loans/Letters of Credit.  So long as any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swingline Bank shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline Loan and (ii) no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

4.9.                            Taxes.

(a)                                 Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document to or for the account of any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Applicable Agent shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law.  If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Agent, (i) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable by the Borrowers shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all required deductions or withholdings (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.9), such Lender, such

82

Issuing Bank or such Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deductions or withholdings, (iii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and (iv) the Applicable Borrower shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 4.9, deliver official tax receipts or certified copies of such receipts issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(b)                                 Without limiting the provisions of Section 4.9(a), the Applicable Borrower shall timely pay any and all Other Taxes to the relevant taxation authority in accordance with applicable law, to the extent such Other Taxes are imposed on such Borrower under applicable law.

(c)                                  The Borrower will indemnify each Lender, each Agent and each Issuing Bank for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 4.9) paid by such Lender, such Agent or such Issuing Bank (as the case may be) on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Applicable Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted.  This indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days from the date such Lender, such Applicable Agent or such Issuing Bank (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or an Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) or by any Agent on its own behalf on or behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither any Lender, any Issuing Bank, nor any Agent shall be indemnified for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to this Section 4.9(c) unless such Lender, such Issuing Bank, or such Agent (as the case may be) shall make written demand on the Applicable Borrower for such reimbursement no later than six (6) months after the earlier of (i) the date on which the relevant taxing authority makes written demand upon such Person for such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, or (ii) the date on which such Person has made payment of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or giving rise to such claims are retroactive, then the six-month period referred to in this Section 4.9(c) shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(d)                                 Each Lender and each Issuing Bank severally agrees to indemnify each Agent and each Alternative Currency Lender, within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender or such Issuing Bank that are paid or payable by such Agent or Alternative Currency Lender (if applicable) in connection with any Loan Document plus any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (other than any amounts for which such Agent or Alternative Currency Lender, if applicable, has been reimbursed by the Applicable Borrower), whether or not such Excluded Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant

83

Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank by an Agent or an Alternative Currency Lender (if applicable) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Nothing herein shall prevent any Lender or any Issuing Bank from contesting the applicability of any Excluded Taxes that it believes to have been incorrectly or illegally imposed or asserted by any Governmental Authority; provided that no such contest shall suspend the obligation of any Lender or Issuing Bank to pay amounts due to an Agent or any Alternative Currency Lender (if applicable) as provided in the first sentence of this Section 4.9(d).

(e)                                  Each Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or a reduction in withholding taxes with respect to payments under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof and on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as required by applicable law or as reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with such properly completed and executed documentation as prescribed by applicable law or as reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit payments under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding; provided, that Lenders (other than Lenders lending to the UK Borrower from a lending office in the UK) cannot qualify for the UK domestic exemption from withholding tax and need not provide any such evidence with respect to such tax.  In addition, each Lender, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof and on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as required by applicable law or as requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will certify that such Lender is not subject to U.S. federal backup withholding and enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to information reporting requirements.

Without limiting the foregoing, in the event the Applicable Borrower is a United States Person or is engaged in a trade or business in the United States, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to such Applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent or as required by applicable law, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally required to do so), whichever of the following is applicable: (i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 BEN or W-ECI, as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, claiming eligibility for the benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which eliminates or reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document or certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document is effectively connected with such Lender’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States, (ii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such

84

Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of such Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Borrower, as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or (iii) any other form or certificate required by any taxing authority or applicable law (including any certificate required by Sections 871(h) and 881(c) of the Code), as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax, duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

Without limiting the foregoing, if a Lender or an Issuing Bank would be subject to United States federal withholding taxes imposed under FATCA on payments made under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document if such Lender or Issuing Bank fails to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender or Issuing Bank shall provide such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender or such Issuing Bank has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA, or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from any such payments.

Without limiting the obligations of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks set forth in the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.9(e), each Lender or Issuing Bank that is entitled to an exemption from or a reduction in withholding taxes with respect to payments under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document agrees to deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Applicable Borrower, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Lender and Issuing Bank listed on the signature pages hereof and on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender or Issuing Bank in the case of each other Lender or Issuing Bank, and from time to time thereafter as required by applicable law or as reasonably requested by the Applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such other documents and forms required by any relevant taxing authorities under the laws of any other jurisdiction, duly executed and completed by such Lender or Issuing Bank, as are required under such laws to confirm such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduced rate of, applicable withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Applicable Borrower that is not a United States Person and that is not engaged in a trade or business in the United States or otherwise to establish such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s status for withholding tax purposes in such other jurisdiction.

Each Lender and each Issuing Bank shall promptly (i) notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction in withholding taxes with respect to payments under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, (ii) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the good faith judgment of such Lender or Issuing Bank, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its lending office) to avoid any requirement

85

of applicable laws of any such jurisdiction that the Applicable Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Lender or Issuing Bank, and (iii) deliver to the Applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent any properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit payments pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding.

(f)                                   For any period with respect to which a Lender or an Issuing Bank has failed to provide the Applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the appropriate form pursuant to Section 4.9(e) (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law, or regulation occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided), such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Section 4.9 with respect to Indemnified Taxes imposed in excess of the amount of Indemnified Taxes that would have been imposed had such Lender or such Issuing Bank provided the appropriate form; provided, that should a Lender or an Issuing Bank, which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding Tax, become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Applicable Borrower shall take such steps as such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall reasonably request to assist such Lender to recover such Taxes.

(g)                                  Additionally, the Borrower shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to any Applicable Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank, as such Applicable Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall reasonably request, such documents and forms required by any relevant taxing authorities under the laws of any jurisdiction, duly executed and completed by the relevant Loan Party, as are required under applicable laws in connection with any payment by any Applicable Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank of Taxes or Other Taxes, or otherwise in connection with the Loan Documents with respect to such jurisdiction.

(h)                                 If a Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any Lender pursuant to this Section 4.9, such Lender will agree to use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates so as to eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue unless such change, in the sole discretion of such Lender, is or will be not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender, designee, assignee or any of their respective Affiliates.

(i)                                     Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrowers hereunder, the agreement and obligations of the Borrowers contained in this Section 4.9 shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest hereunder, the expiry of all Letters of Credit, and the termination of all Commitments.

(j)                                    If any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Borrower or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.9, it shall pay to such Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Applicable Borrower under this Section 4.9 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Agent, such Lender

or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest received by such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank from the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that (without limiting the obligations of any Applicable Borrower under Section 4.9(c)) such Borrower, upon the request of such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, shall repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any and all penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank in the event such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank to make available its tax returns or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential to any Borrower or any other Person.

(k)                                 A UK Treaty Lender that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme which becomes a party to this Agreement, and that wishes that scheme to apply to a UK Loan or a Letter of Credit issued in the UK to the UK Borrower, shall include an indication to that effect by including its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in Schedule 2.1 hereto, or, where relevant, in the relevant Assignment and Assumption (for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and without liability to any Borrower) or in such Lender’s Joinder Agreement.  If such Lender includes the indication described above, the UK Borrower shall file a duly completed form DTTP2 in respect of such Lender with HM Revenue & Customs within thirty (30) days of the Closing Date or the effective date of the relevant Assignment and Assumption or Joinder Agreement (as the case may be).  If a Lender has not indicated that it wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to apply in accordance with this subsection (k) as per the above, no Borrower shall file any form relating to the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme in respect of any UK Loans held by such Lender or any Letters of Credit issued for the account of the UK Borrower.  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section4.9(k) shall require a UK Treaty Lender to (i) register under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme or (ii) apply the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to any UK Loan held by such Lender or any Letters of Credit issued for the account of the UK Borrower if it has so registered.  If on the Closing Date a UK Treaty Lender has applied for but not yet received its passport exemption, upon receipt of the necessary information from that Lender the UK Borrower will file a completed form DTTP2 in respect of such Lender with HM Revenue & Customs as soon as reasonably possible after the UK Borrower’s receipt of such information.

4.10.                     Reduction and Termination of Commitments.

(a)                                 (i) Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender shall automatically terminate on the Maturity Date and (ii) the Term Loan Commitment of each Term Loan Lender shall automatically terminate on the Term Loan Borrowing Date or, if the Term Loan Borrowing Date does not occur, at 5:00 p.m., Houston time, on the Term Loan Availability Termination Date.

(b)                                 The Borrower may, at any time or from time to time, permanently reduce on a pro rata basis or terminate the Revolving Commitments of the Revolving Lenders or, if there are no outstanding Loans to or Letters of Credit issued for the account of, a Subsidiary Borrower, terminate a Subsidiary Borrower’s right to request a Borrowing or Letter of Credit hereunder, in each case by giving not less than three (3) full Business Days’ prior written notice to such effect to the Administrative Agent; provided that (i) any partial reduction shall be in an

87

amount of not less than $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, immediately after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 4.3, the Total Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Commitment.  Upon any such termination such Subsidiary Borrower shall cease to be a Subsidiary Borrower (but, unless unrestricted, shall continue to be a Restricted Subsidiary or Material Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be).  Promptly after the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such notice of reduction or termination, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender and each Issuing Bank of the proposed reduction or termination, and such reduction or termination shall be effective on the date specified in the Borrower’s notice with respect to such reduction or termination.  Each reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall reduce the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender proportionately in accordance with its Pro Rata Percentage.  After each such reduction, the commitment fee shall be calculated upon the Total Revolving Commitment as so reduced.  Any reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments hereunder shall be irrevocable.

(c)                                  The Borrower may, at any time prior to the Term Loan Borrowing Date, terminate the Term Loan Commitments of the Term Loan Lenders by giving not less than three (3) full Business Days’ prior written notice to such effect to the Administrative Agent.  Promptly after the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such notice of termination, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Term Loan Lender thereof, and such termination shall be effective on the date specified in the Borrower’s notice with respect to such termination.  Any termination of the Term Loan Commitments hereunder shall be irrevocable.

4.11.                     Repayment in Connection with Commitment Reductions, Certain Currency Exchange Fluctuations and on Maturity Date.  Upon the effective date of each voluntary reduction in the Revolving Commitments referred to in Section 4.10(b) and at any time that the US Dollar Equivalent (at the Spot Exchange Rate) of the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans causes the Total Revolving Credit Exposure to exceed the Total Revolving Commitment on any Spot Currency Determination Date, then, within two (2) Business Days of such Spot Currency Determination Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders the principal amount of the Revolving Loans and/or Swingline Loans, to the extent, if any, that (a) the aggregate principal amount of any Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans then outstanding plus the aggregate LC Exposures exceeds (b) the amount of the Total Revolving Commitment as so reduced.  Accrued and unpaid interest on the amount of the Loans so prepaid shall be due and payable at the time of such prepayment.  All amounts of principal, interest and fees relating to Loans not due and payable before the Maturity Date are due and payable on that date.  If, after giving effect to any reduction of the Total Revolving Commitment, any Alternative Currency Sublimit shall exceed the amount of the Total Revolving Commitment as so reduced, such Alternative Currency Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess.

4.12.                     Increase of the Revolving Commitments.

(a)                                 Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and to the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and provided that no Default or Event of Default then exists, the Borrower shall have the right to cause from time

88

to time an increase in the aggregate Revolving Commitments (together with an increase in the Alternative Currency Sublimit, if the Borrower shall so request and if one or more existing or new Alternative Currency Lenders are available to fund such Loans) (each, a “Revolving Commitment Increase”) by adding to this Agreement one or more commercial banks or other recognized financial institutions that are not already Revolving Lenders hereunder and that are reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lender (each, an “Additional Revolving Lender”) or by allowing one or more existing Revolving Lenders to increase their respective Revolving Commitments (each, an “Increasing Revolving Lender”); provided that (i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the relevant Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date, (ii) no such Revolving Commitment Increase shall be less than $10,000,000, (iii) the Total Revolving Commitment shall not exceed $450,000,000, (iv) no Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment shall be increased without such Revolving Lender’s prior written consent (which consent may be given or withheld in such Revolving Lender’s sole and absolute discretion), and (v) if, on the relevant Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date, any Revolving Loans have been funded, each Applicable Borrower shall be obligated to pay any breakage fees or costs that are payable pursuant to Section 3.5 in connection with the reallocation of such outstanding Revolving Loans.

(b)                                 The Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent with written notice in the form of Exhibit F (a “Notice of Revolving Commitment Increase”) of its intention to increase the Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 4.12.  Each such Notice of Revolving Commitment Increase shall specify (i) the currency with respect to which such Revolving Commitment Increase is proposed; (ii) the proposed effective date of such Revolving Commitment Increase (each such date, a “Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date”), which shall be no earlier than ten (10) Business Days after receipt by the Administrative Agent of such Notice of Revolving Commitment Increase (or such shorter period of time as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent), (iii) the amount of the requested Revolving Commitment Increase (provided that after giving effect to such requested Revolving Commitment Increase, the Total Revolving Commitment does not exceed the amount set forth in subsection (a)(iii) above), and (iv) the identity of each Increasing Revolving Lender and Additional Revolving Lender, the amount of the Revolving Commitment requested by such Person and, in the case of each proposed Additional Revolving Lender, the notification information for such Person.

(c)                                  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Increasing Revolving Lenders and the Additional Revolving Lenders promptly following its receipt of the Notice of Revolving Commitment Increase.  Each such Increasing Revolving Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing within the time permitted in the Notice of Revolving Commitment Increase whether it agrees to increase its Revolving Commitment and, if so, the amount by which it agrees to increase its Revolving Commitment; provided that the amount of such increase shall not be less than $5,000,000.  Each such Additional Revolving Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing within such time period of the amount, if any, it agrees to commit to such proposed Revolving Commitment Increase; provided that the Revolving Commitment of any Additional Revolving Lender shall not be less than $5,000,000.  Any Increasing Revolving Lender or Additional Revolving Lender identified in the Notice of Revolving Commitment Increase that does not respond within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Revolving Commitment or commit to such Revolving Commitment Increase, as the case may be.  Following receipt or deemed receipt of notifications from all such Increasing

89

Revolving Lenders and Additional Revolving Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, after consultation and agreement with the Borrower, allocate the amount of the Revolving Commitment Increase among the Increasing Revolving Lenders and/or the Additional Revolving Lenders that have agreed to increase their respective Revolving Commitments or commit to the Revolving Commitment Increase, respectively.  On or before the Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower, the other Agents, the Issuing Banks, the Revolving Lenders and the Additional Revolving Lenders of the amount of the Revolving Commitment Increase, the Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date and the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender, including each Additional Revolving Lender, after giving effect to the Revolving Commitment Increase.

(d)                                 As a condition precedent to each Revolving Commitment Increase pursuant to a Revolving Commitment from one or more Additional Revolving Lenders, each Additional Revolving Lender becoming a party hereto shall provide any administrative information reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and enter into a Joinder Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit J to this Agreement (each, a “Joinder Agreement”) with the Borrower, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent and assuming thereby to the extent set forth therein all rights and obligations of a Revolving Lender hereunder.

(e)                                  As a condition precedent to the effectiveness of each Revolving Commitment Increase, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan Party (in sufficient copies for each Revolving Lender and each Additional Revolving Lender) signed by an authorized officer of such Loan Party (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) in the case of the Borrower, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained herein and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they were true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and (B) no Default or Event of Default exists.

(f)                                   On each Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date, to the extent that there are Revolving Loans outstanding as of such date, (i) all outstanding Revolving Loans shall be reallocated among the Revolving Lenders (including any Additional Revolving Lenders) in accordance with the Revolving Lenders’ respective revised Pro Rata Percentages of the Total Revolving Commitment, (ii) each Additional Revolving Lender shall, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, deliver to the Administrative Agent such Additional Revolving Lender’s New Funds Amount, which amount, for each such Additional Revolving Lender, shall constitute Revolving Loans made by such Additional Revolving Lender to the applicable Borrower pursuant to this Agreement on such Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date, (iii) each Increasing Revolving Lender shall, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, deliver to the Administrative Agent such Increasing Revolving Lender’s New Funds Amount, which amount, for each such Increasing Revolving Lender, shall constitute Revolving Loans made by such Increasing Revolving Lender to the applicable Borrower pursuant to this Agreement on such Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date, (iv) the Administrative Agent shall, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, pay to each then Reducing Percentage Revolving Lender its Reduction Amount, which amount, for each such Reducing Percentage Revolving Lender, shall constitute a prepayment by the applicable Borrower pursuant

90

to Section 4.3, ratably in accordance with the respective principal amounts thereof, of the principal amounts of all then outstanding Revolving Loans of such Reducing Percentage Revolving Lender, provided that the applicable Borrower shall not be required to ratably pay any Revolving Lenders other than Reducing Percentage Revolving Lenders and (v) the applicable Borrower shall be responsible to pay to each Revolving Lender any breakage fees or costs that are payable pursuant to Section 3.5 in connection with the reallocation of any outstanding Revolving Loans.

(g)                                  For purposes of this Section 4.12 and Exhibit F, the following defined terms shall have the following meanings:  (i) “New Funds Amount” means the amount equal to the product of (A) an Additional Revolving Lender’s Commitment or an increasing Revolving Lender’s Increased Revolving Commitment, as applicable, represented as a percentage of the Total Revolving Commitment after giving effect to any Revolving Commitment Increase, times (B) the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Revolving Loans immediately prior to giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase, if any, as of any Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date (without regard to any increase in the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans as a result of borrowings made immediately after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase on such Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date); (ii) “Reducing Percentage Revolving Lender” means, immediately prior to giving effect to any Revolving Commitment Increase, each then existing Revolving Lender that does not increase its Revolving Commitment as a result of such Revolving Commitment Increase and whose relative percentage of the Revolving Commitments shall be reduced after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase; and (iii) “Reduction Amount” means the amount by which a Reducing Percentage Revolving Lender’s outstanding Revolving Loans decrease as of any Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date (without regard to the effect of any borrowings made on such Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date immediately after giving effect to the Revolving Commitment Increase occurring on such Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date).

(h)                                 Each Revolving Commitment Increase shall become effective on the corresponding Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date, and upon such effectiveness (i) the Administrative Agent shall record in the Register each Additional Revolving Lender’s information as provided in the applicable Notice of Revolving Commitment Increase and pursuant to an Administrative Questionnaire that shall be executed and delivered by each Additional Revolving Lender to the Administrative Agent on or before such Revolving Commitment Increase Effective Date, (ii) Schedule 2.1 shall be amended and restated to set forth all Revolving Lenders (including any Additional Revolving Lenders) that will be Revolving Lenders hereunder after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase, and the Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Revolving Lender (including each Additional Revolving Lender) a copy of such amended and restated Schedule 2.1, and (iii) each Additional Revolving Lender identified on the Notice of Revolving Commitment Increase for such Revolving Commitment Increase shall be a “Revolving Lender” for all purposes under this Agreement.

(i)                                     If any modification to this Agreement is required for such an increase, so long as such modifications do not decrease the interest rates or fees payable in connection with the Revolving Loans and LC Disbursements and are for the sole purposes of allocating amounts

91

ratably among the Revolving Lenders, changing the mechanics and other necessary changes to this Agreement to make the increase effective, each Revolving Lender, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Bank hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on its behalf as the Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate; provided that the interest rates, commitment fees or Letter of Credit Fees applicable to any Revolving Commitments of the Revolving Lenders prior to such modification shall not, in any event, be decreased pursuant to such modification; and provided further that if any such Additional Revolving Lender is entitled to interest rates, commitment fees or Letter of Credit Fees in excess of those provided for the Revolving Commitments outstanding at the time of such modification, such higher interest and fee rates shall be made to apply to the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender thereafter.  If any other modifications to this Agreement are required for such an increase, such modifications shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the requisite parties pursuant to Section 13.17.

ARTICLE V

5.1.                            Commitment Fee.

(a)                                 The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee from the Closing Date to, but not including, the date on which the Revolving Commitment of such Revolving Lender terminates, at the Applicable Margin for commitment fees from time to time in effect, on the daily average amount of such Lender’s Unused Revolving Commitment, such commitment fee to be payable in arrears and due sixty-one (61) days after the end of each Fiscal Quarter and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof.  For purposes of calculating the commitment fee for any period during which Revolving Loans in both US Dollars and Alternative Currencies were outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall use the US Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currencies calculated on the basis of the Spot Exchange Rate for such Alternative Currencies, on or as of the most recent Spot Currency Determination Date.

(b)                                 The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the amount of each Term Loan Lender a commitment fee from the forty-sixth (46th) day after the Closing Date, to, but not including, the Term Loan Borrowing Date, at the Applicable Margin for commitment fees from time to time in effect, on the amount of such Term Loan Lender’s Term Loan Commitment, such commitment fee to be payable on the Term Loan Borrowing Date (or, if the Borrower elects to terminate the Term Loan Commitments, on the date on which the Term Loan Commitments terminate).

(a)                                 Each Applicable Borrower agrees to pay to the Applicable Agent, for distribution to the Revolving Lenders (based upon their respective Pro Rata Percentages in such Letter of Credit), a fee in respect of each Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Applicable Borrower (the “Letter of Credit Fee”), which shall accrue from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of existing Letters of Credit, the Closing Date) to but excluding the date on which such Revolving Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure with respect to such Letter of Credit at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Letter of Credit Fees on the US Dollar Equivalent of the Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit.

(b)                                 Each Applicable Borrower agrees to pay to each Issuing Bank, for its own account, (i) a fronting fee for each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank hereunder on behalf of such Applicable Borrower, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to 0.125% during the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of existing Letters of Credit, the Closing Date) to but excluding the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure with respect to such Letter of Credit, on the US Dollar Equivalent of such Issuing Bank’s LC Exposure of the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit and (ii) such Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, or renewal or extension of any such Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder.

5.5.                            Fees Not Interest; Nonpayment.  The fees described in this Agreement represent compensation for services rendered and to be rendered separate and apart from the lending of money or the provision of credit and do not constitute compensation for the use, detention, or forbearance of money, and, subject to Section 13.10, the obligation of the Borrower to pay each fee described herein shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, the obligations of the Borrowers to pay interest, other fees described in this Agreement and expenses otherwise described in this Agreement.  Fees shall be payable when due in US Dollars (except as otherwise provided herein) and in immediately available funds.  All fees payable hereunder, including, without limitation, the commitment fees referred to in Section 5.1, shall, unless otherwise agreed, be non-refundable.

7.1.                            Organization and Qualification.  Each of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries (a) is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization; (b) has the corporate or equivalent power and authority to own its properties and to carry on its business as now conducted; and (c) is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in every jurisdiction where such qualification is necessary and where failure to be so qualified would have a Material Adverse Effect.

7.2.                            Financial Statements.  The Borrower has furnished the Lenders with its audited consolidated financial statements for the Fiscal Years 2011 and 2012.  The financial statements described above have been prepared in conformity with GAAP.  The financial statements described above fairly present the consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and the results of their operations and their cash flow as of the dates and for the periods indicated.  As of the Closing Date, there has been no event since February 2, 2013, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  As of the Closing Date, there exist no material liabilities or obligations, contingent or otherwise, unusual long-term commitments or unrealized losses of the Borrower or any Subsidiary which are not fully disclosed in the financial statements described in the first sentence above.

7.3.                            Litigation.  As of the Closing Date, there is no action, suit, investigation or proceeding pending (or, to the best knowledge of the Borrower, threatened) against the Borrower or any Subsidiary before any court, administrative agency or arbitrator (a) which, except for matters disclosed in the Borrower’s current filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (as available pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 9.1), could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (b) that involves any of the Loan Documents or the Transactions.

7.4.                            Title to Properties.  The Borrower and each of the Restricted Subsidiaries has good and indefeasible title to, or valid leasehold interests in, the material real and personal Properties purported to be owned or leased by it, free of any Liens except those permitted in Section 10.1.

94

appropriate proceedings and reserved for in accordance with GAAP in the manner required by Section 9.9 or (c) where failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, has not and could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

7.6.                            Conflicting Agreements or Restrictions.  Neither the execution and delivery by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, or the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated thereby nor its fulfillment and compliance with the respective terms, conditions and provisions thereof will (a) result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, the provisions of (i) any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court which is applicable to it or (ii) any material contract or agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound, (b) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien on any material portion of its Property pursuant to the express provisions of any material agreement to which it is a party, or (c) result in any violation by it of (i) its charter, bylaws or other organizational documents or (ii) any Law or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to it.

7.7.                            Authorization, Validity, Etc.  Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has the corporate or equivalent power and authority to execute and deliver the Loan Documents to which it is a party, consummate the transactions contemplated therein to be consummated by it and perform its obligations thereunder, and all such action has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or equivalent proceedings on its part.  The Loan Documents to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party have been duly and validly executed and delivered by each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries party thereto and constitute valid and legally binding agreements of the Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as limited by Debtor Relief Laws.

7.8.                            Investment Company Act Not Applicable.  Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

7.9.                            Margin Stock.  Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged principally or as one of its important activities in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying Margin Stock, and no proceeds of any Loan will be used (a) to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock; (b) to reduce or retire any Debt which was originally incurred to purchase or carry any such Margin Stock; (c) for any other purpose which might constitute this transaction a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulation T, Regulation U or Regulation X; or (d) to acquire any security of any Person who is subject to Sections 13 and 14 of the Exchange Act.  After applying the proceeds of each Loan, not more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the value (as determined in accordance with Regulation U) of the Borrower’s assets is represented by Margin Stock.  Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any Person acting on behalf of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, has taken or will take any action which might cause any Loan Document or the Transactions to violate Regulation T, Regulation U or Regulation X or any other regulation of the Board, as now or hereafter in effect.

95

7.10.                     ERISA; Foreign Benefit and Pension Plans.

(a)                                 No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.  The present value of all accumulated benefit obligations under each Pension Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 35) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed by more than $25,000,000 the fair market value of the assets of such Pension Plan.

(b)                                 All obligations of the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries under each Canadian Pension Plan and Canadian Benefit Plan have been performed in accordance with the terms thereof and any requirement of applicable Law (including, without limitation, the Income Tax Act (Canada) and the Supplemental Pension Plan Act (Quebec)), except where the failure to so perform would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.  No Canadian Pension Plan has any unfunded liabilities on an actuarial basis which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c)                                  Each Foreign Pension Plan has been maintained in substantial compliance with its terms and in substantial compliance with the requirements of any and all applicable laws, statutes, rules, regulations and orders and has been maintained, where required, in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities.  All contributions required to be made with respect to a Foreign Pension Plan have been timely made.  Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred any material obligation in connection with the termination of or withdrawal from any Foreign Pension Plan.  The present value of the accrued benefit liabilities (whether or not vested) under each Foreign Pension Plan determined as of the end of the most recently ended Fiscal Year prior to the Closing Date on the basis of actuarial assumptions, each of which is reasonable, did not exceed by more than the Alternative Currency Equivalents of $25,000,000 the current value of the assets of such Foreign Pension Plan allocable to such benefit liabilities.

7.11.                     Full Disclosure.  All information heretofore or contemporaneously furnished by or on behalf of any Borrower or any Subsidiary in writing to any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, the Information Memorandum) is, and all other such information hereafter furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Subsidiary in writing to the Administrative Agent or any Lender will be, (a) true and accurate in all material respects on the date as of which such information is dated or certified and (b) when taken as a whole with all such written information provided to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, not incomplete by omitting to state any material fact necessary to make such information not misleading in light of the circumstances under which such information was provided; provided that, with respect to projected financial information, the Borrower represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time.  There is no fact known to any Borrower or any Subsidiary that is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect, which has not been disclosed herein or in such other written documents, information or certificates furnished to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

7.12.                     Permits and Licenses.  All material permits, licenses and other Governmental Approvals necessary for the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries to carry on their respective

9.7.                            Guarantees of Certain Restricted Subsidiaries; Pledge Agreements.

107

Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement) (a “Guaranty Agreement Supplement”), whereupon such Material Restricted Subsidiary shall become a “Guarantor” as defined in the Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement, together with (i) written evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that such Material Restricted Subsidiary has taken all organizational and other action and obtained all consents necessary to duly approve and authorize its execution and delivery of a Guaranty Agreement Supplement and the performance of its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement, (ii) any other documents that it is required hereunder or under any other Loan Document to execute and (iii) if requested by the Administrative Agent, an opinion of counsel to such Material Restricted Subsidiary in form, scope and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; provided that, any Material Restricted Subsidiary that is a Foreign Subsidiary shall not be required to execute and deliver a Guaranty Agreement Supplement (any such Material Restricted Subsidiary herein referred to as a “Non-Guaranteeing Restricted Subsidiary”).

(b)                                 Immediately upon the designation or deemed designation of any Material Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to the definition thereof (and until designated an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms hereof), the Borrower and any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Domestic Subsidiary which owns any Equity Interest in or Debt of such Material Restricted Subsidiary shall, to the extent not already a party thereto, become a party to the Pledge Agreement by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a supplement thereto (a form of which is set forth as Annex 1 to the Pledge Agreement) (a “Pledge Agreement Supplement”), whereupon the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary shall become a “Pledgor” as defined in the Pledge Agreement.  Pursuant to such Pledge Agreement Supplement, such Equity Interest and Debt shall be pledged as a lien to secure the Obligations, which shall constitute a first priority lien (except that if such Material Restricted Subsidiary is a Foreign Subsidiary, such Equity Interest of such Material Restricted Subsidiary shall only be pledged if such Material Restricted Subsidiary is a First-Tier Foreign Subsidiary, and in such case, such Equity Interest to be pledged shall be limited to 65% of the outstanding Equity Interest of such Material Restricted Subsidiary).  Together with the foregoing, each such Restricted Subsidiary shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (i) written evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that such Restricted Subsidiary has taken all corporate or equivalent action and obtained all consents necessary to duly approve and authorize its execution and delivery of a Pledge Agreement Supplement and the performance of its obligations under the Pledge Agreement, (ii) if such Equity Interests are evidenced by a certificate, all such certificates accompanied by stock or unit (or other similar) powers executed in blank, (iii) any other documents which it is required hereunder or under any other Loan Document to execute and (iv) if requested by the Administrative Agent, an opinion of counsel to such Subsidiary in form, scope and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.

(c)                                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lien shall be taken pursuant to Section 9.7(b) in any assets as to which the Administrative Agent shall determine in its reasonable discretion that the cost of obtaining such Lien (including any mortgage, stamp, intangibles or other tax, or similar item) is excessive in relation to the benefit of it to the Lenders of the security afforded thereby.

(d)                                 It is agreed and understood that the agreement of the Borrower under this Section 9.7 to cause any such Material Restricted Subsidiary to become a party to the Guaranty

108

Agreement and to cause the Equity Interest and Debt of such Material Restricted Subsidiary to be pledged as security for the Obligations is a condition precedent to the making of the Loans and the issuance of Letters of Credit pursuant to this Agreement, and that the entry into this Agreement by the Lenders constitutes good and adequate consideration therefor.

9.8.                            Patents, Trademarks and Licenses.  Maintain, and cause each Restricted Subsidiary to maintain, all franchises, licenses, permits, patents, copyrights, trademarks, service marks, trade names, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, and other general intangibles and intellectual property owned or licensed by any of them, and all other Governmental Approvals necessary to conduct its business, except where the failure to so maintain is not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.9.                            Taxes; Obligations.  Pay, and cause each Subsidiary to pay, before the same shall become delinquent or in default, its obligations, including tax liabilities, that, if not paid, could result in a Material Adverse Effect, except where (a) the validity or amount thereof is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and (b) the Borrower or such Subsidiary has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto (including any potential penalties and interest) in accordance with GAAP.

9.10.                     Compliance with Federal Reserve Regulations.  No proceeds of the Loans and no Letter of Credit shall be used, in whole or in part, by any Borrower or any other Loan Party, directly or indirectly, to purchase or carry, or to reduce or retire or refinance any credit incurred to purchase or carry, any “margin security” or “margin stock,” or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any “margin security” or “margin stock.” No Borrower shall, directly or indirectly, otherwise take or permit to be taken any action which would result in the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the carrying out of any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement being violative of Regulation T, U or X of the Board or any other regulation of the Board.  If requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall complete and sign Part I of a copy of the Federal Reserve Form U-1 referred to in Regulation U of the Board and deliver such copy to each Lender.

9.11.                     Pensions.  The Borrower shall furnish prompt written notice to the Administrative Agent of its receipt of a Financial Support Direction or a Contribution Notice from the Pensions Regulator which could reasonably be expected to result in liability of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in an aggregate amount exceeding the US Dollar Equivalent of $25,000,000.
