Item 1.01Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Third Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement

On April 29, 2016, United Natural Foods, Inc. (the “Company”) amended and restated its senior secured credit facility pursuant to the terms of a Third Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) by and among the Company and United Natural Foods West, Inc. (collectively, the “U.S. Borrowers”), and UNFI Canada, Inc. (the “Canadian Borrower” and, together with the U.S. Borrowers, the “Borrowers”), the financial institutions that are parties thereto as lenders (collectively, the “Lenders”), Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent for the Lenders (the “Administrative Agent”), Bank of America, N.A. (acting through its Canada branch), as Canadian agent for the Lenders (the “Canadian Agent”), and the other parties thereto.

The material terms of the Credit Agreement are as follows:

Availability

The Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured revolving loan facility (the “Credit Facility”) of up to an aggregate amount of $900.0 million (the loans thereunder, the “Loans”), of which up to (i) $850.0 million is available to the U.S. Borrowers and (ii) $50.0 million is available to the Canadian Borrower.  The Credit Agreement also provides for (i) a $50.0 million sublimit of availability for letters of credit of which there is a further $4.0 million sublimit for the Canadian Borrower, and (ii) a $45.0 million sublimit for short-term borrowings on a swingline basis of which there is a further $3.5 million sublimit for the Canadian Borrower. Under the Credit Agreement, the Borrowers may, at their option, increase the aggregate amount of the Credit Facility in an amount of up to $600.0 million (but in not less than $10.0 million increments) without the consent of any Lenders not participating in such increase, subject to certain customary conditions and Lenders committing to provide the increase in funding. There can be no assurance that additional funding would be available.

Availability under the Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base (the “Borrowing Base”), which is based on 90% of eligible accounts receivable plus 90% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory of the Borrowers, after adjusting for customary reserves that are subject to the Administrative Agent’s discretion. The aggregate amount of the Loans made and letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility shall at no time exceed the lesser of the Credit Facility amount ($900.0 million or, if increased at the Borrowers’ option as described above, up to $1.5 billion) or the Borrowing Base. To the extent that the Borrowers’ eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory decline, the Borrowing Base will decrease, and the availability under the Credit Facility may decrease below $900.0 million.

Maturity

The commitments under the Credit Facility expire on April 29, 2021, and any Loans then outstanding will be payable in full at that time.

Guarantees and Collateral

The Borrowers’ obligations under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by most of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries who are not also Borrowers (collectively, the “Guarantors”).  The U.S. Borrowers’ obligations under the Credit Facility and the Guarantors’ obligations under the related guarantees are secured by all of the U.S. Borrowers’ and the Guarantors’ accounts receivable, inventory and certain other assets arising therefrom or related thereto (including, without limitation, substantially all of their deposit accounts).  The Canadian Borrower’s obligations under the Credit Facility are secured by all of the Borrowers’ and the Guarantors’ accounts receivable, inventory and certain other assets arising therefrom or related thereto (including, without limitation, substantially all of their deposit accounts).

2

Interest and Fees

The borrowings of the U.S. Borrowers under the Credit Facility bear interest at rates that, at the Company’s option, can be either:

·A base rate generally defined as the sum of (i) the highest of (x) the Administrative Agent’s prime rate, (y) the average overnight federal funds effective rate plus one-half percent (0.50%) per annum and (z) one-month LIBOR plus one percent (1%) per annum and (ii) an applicable margin; or

·A LIBOR rate generally defined as the sum of (i) the London Interbank Offered Rate (as published on the applicable Reuters screen page, or other commercially available source) and (ii) an applicable margin.

The initial applicable margin for base rate loans is 0.25%, and the initial applicable margin for LIBOR loans is 1.25%.  Commencing on the first day of the calendar month following the Administrative Agent’s receipt of the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal quarter ending on or about April 29, 2017, and quarterly thereafter, the applicable margins for borrowings by the U.S. Borrowers will be subject to adjustment based upon the aggregate availability under the Credit Facility.  Interest on the U.S. Borrowers’ borrowings is payable monthly in arrears for base rate loans and at the end of each interest rate period (but not less often than quarterly) for LIBOR loans.

The borrowings of the Canadian Borrower under the Credit Facility bear interest at rates that, at the Canadian Borrower’s option, can be either:

·A prime rate generally defined as the sum of (i) the highest of (x) 30-day Reuters Canadian Deposit Offering Rate for bankers’ acceptances plus one-half percent (0.50%) per annum, (y) the prime rate of Bank of America, N.A.’s Canada branch, and (z) a bankers’ acceptance equivalent rate for a one month interest period plus one percent (1%) per annum and (ii) an applicable margin; or

·A bankers’ acceptance equivalent rate generally defined as the sum of (i) the rate of interest per annum equal to the annual rates applicable to Canadian Dollar bankers’ acceptances on the “CDOR Page” of Reuter Monitor Money Rates Service, plus five (5) basis points, and (ii) an applicable margin.  This is the exclusive method of interest accrual for loans that are not Canadian swingline loans, Canadian overadvance loans or Canadian protective advances.

The initial applicable margin for prime rate loans is 0.25%, and the initial applicable margin for bankers’ acceptance equivalent rate loans is 1.25%.  Commencing on the first day of the calendar month following the Administrative Agent’s receipt of the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal quarter ending on or about April 29, 2017, and quarterly thereafter, the applicable margins for borrowings by the Canadian Borrower will be subject to adjustment based upon the aggregate availability under the Credit Facility.  Interest on the Canadian Borrower’s borrowings is payable monthly in arrears for prime rate loans and at the end of each interest rate period (but not less often than quarterly) for bankers’ acceptance equivalent rate loans.

Unutilized commitments under the Credit Facility are subject to a per annum fee of 0.30% if the total outstandings were less than 25% of the aggregate commitments, or a per annum fee of 0.25% if such total outstandings were 25% or more of the aggregate commitments.

The Borrowers are also required to pay a letter of credit fronting fee to each letter of credit issuer equal to 0.125% per annum of the stated amount of each such letter of credit (or such other amount as may be mutually agreed by the Borrowers and the applicable letter of credit issuer), as well as a fee to all lenders equal to the applicable margin for LIBOR or bankers’ acceptance equivalent rate loans, as applicable, times the average daily stated amount of all outstanding letters of credit.

The Company is also required to pay certain customary fees to the Administrative Agent.

3

Certain Covenants and Representations and Warranties

The Credit Agreement includes negative covenants that limit, among other things, additional indebtedness, transactions with affiliates, additional liens, sales of assets, dividends, investments and advances, prepayments of debt, mergers and acquisitions. The Credit Agreement also includes a financial covenant that requires the ratio of the Company’s consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) minus the unfinanced portion of Capital Expenditures (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to the Company’s consolidated Fixed Charges (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to be at least 1.00 to 1.00 as of the end of any period of four fiscal quarters while Aggregate Availability (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is less than the greater of (i) $65.0 million and (ii) 10% of the aggregate borrowing base.

The Credit Agreement also contains other customary affirmative and negative covenants and customary representations and warranties that must be accurate in order for the Borrowers to borrow under the Credit Facility.

Events of Default

The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, including, but not limited to, payment defaults, breaches of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, events of bankruptcy and insolvency, failure of any guaranty or security document supporting the Credit Facility to be in full force and effect, and a change of control. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the Borrowers may be required immediately to repay all amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

The above description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

(a)           Each Borrower acknowledges that each Issuing Bank’s issuance of any Letter of Credit is conditioned upon such Issuing Bank’s receipt of an LC Application with respect to the requested Letter of Credit, as well as such other instruments and agreements as such Issuing Bank may customarily require for issuance of a letter of credit of similar type and amount.  No Issuing Bank shall have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit unless (i) such Issuing Bank receives an LC Request and LC Application at least three Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance; (ii) each U.S. LC Condition or Canadian LC Condition, as the case may be, is satisfied; and (iii) if a Defaulting Lender

41

exists, such Lender or Borrowers have entered into arrangements satisfactory to the Applicable Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank to eliminate any Fronting Exposure associated with such Lender.  If, in sufficient time to act, the applicable Issuing Bank receives written notice from Required Lenders that a U.S. LC Condition or Canadian LC Condition, as the case may be, has not been satisfied, such Issuing Bank shall not issue the requested Letter of Credit.  Prior to receipt of any such notice, no Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have knowledge of any failure of U.S. LC Conditions or Canadian LC Conditions.

(b)           Letters of Credit may be requested by a U.S. Borrower or Canadian Borrower to support obligations incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business, or as otherwise approved by the Applicable Agent.  The renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit shall be treated as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit, except that delivery of a new LC Application shall be required at the discretion of the applicable Issuing Bank.

(c)           Borrowers assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuses of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary.  In connection with issuance of any Letter of Credit, no Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender shall be responsible for the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods purported to be represented by any Documents; any differences or variation in the character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods from that expressed in any Documents; the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Documents or of any endorsements thereon; the time, place, manner or order in which shipment of goods is made; partial or incomplete shipment of, or failure to ship, any goods referred to in a Letter of Credit or Documents; any deviation from instructions, delay, default or fraud by any shipper or other Person in connection with any goods, shipment or delivery; any breach of contract between a shipper or vendor and a Borrower; errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, telecopy, e-mail, telephone or otherwise; errors in interpretation of technical terms; the misapplication by a beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof; or any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of any Issuing Bank, any Agent or any Lender, including any act or omission of a Governmental Authority.  The rights and remedies of each Issuing Bank under the Loan Documents shall be cumulative.  Each Issuing Bank shall be fully subrogated to the rights and remedies of each beneficiary whose claims against Borrowers are discharged with proceeds of any Letter of Credit.

(d)           In connection with its administration of and enforcement of rights or remedies under any Letters of Credit or LC Documents, the applicable Issuing Bank shall be entitled to act, and shall be fully protected in acting, upon any certification, documentation or communication in whatever form believed by such Issuing Bank, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by a proper Person.  Each Issuing Bank may consult with and employ legal counsel, accountants and other experts to advise it concerning its obligations, rights and remedies, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by such experts.  Each Issuing Bank may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection with any matter relating to Letters of Credit or LC Documents, and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of agents and attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care.

2.3.2.            Reimbursement; Participations.

(a)           If any Issuing Bank honors any request for payment under a Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower or Borrowers shall pay to such Issuing Bank, on the same day (“Reimbursement Date”), the amount paid by such Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit, together with interest at the interest rate for (i) Base Rate Loans, in the case of Letters of Credit issued in U.S. Dollars and (ii) BA Equivalent Rate Loans, in the case of Letters of Credit issued in Canadian Dollars, from the Reimbursement Date until payment by such Borrower or Borrowers.  The obligation of the applicable Borrower or Borrowers to reimburse Issuing Bank for any payment made under a Letter of Credit shall be

42

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

absolute, unconditional, irrevocable, and joint and several, and shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that Borrowers may have at any time against the beneficiary.  Regardless of whether Borrower Agent or the Canadian Borrower submits a Notice of Borrowing, the applicable Borrower or Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of (x) Base Rate Loans, in the case of Letters of Credit issued in U.S. Dollars and (y) BA Equivalent Rate Loans, in the case of Letters of Credit issued in Canadian Dollars, in an amount necessary to pay all amounts due the applicable Issuing Bank on any Reimbursement Date and each U.S. Revolver Lender and Canadian Lender, as the case may be, agrees to fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing whether or not the U.S. Revolver Commitments or Canadian Commitments, as the case may be, have terminated, a U.S. Revolver Overadvance or Canadian Overadvance, as the case may be, exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied.

(b)           (i) In the case of a Letter of Credit issued for the account or benefit of a U.S. Borrower or a Subsidiary of a U.S. Borrower, each U.S. Revolver Lender and (ii) in the case of a Letter of Credit issued for the account or benefit of the Canadian Borrower or a Subsidiary of the Canadian Borrower, each Canadian Lender, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally purchases from the applicable Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided Pro Rata interest and participation in all applicable LC Obligations relating to the Letter of Credit.  Issuing Bank is issuing Letters of Credit in reliance upon this participation.  If any Issuing Bank makes any payment under a Letter of Credit and the applicable Borrower or Borrowers do not reimburse such payment on the Reimbursement Date, the Applicable Agent shall promptly notify the Applicable Lenders and each such Lender shall promptly (within one Business Day) and unconditionally pay to the Applicable Agent, for the benefit of such Issuing Bank, the Lender’s Pro Rata share of such payment.  Upon request by a Lender, the applicable Issuing Bank shall furnish copies of any Letters of Credit and LC Documents in its possession at such time.

(c)           The obligation of each Lender to make payments to the Applicable Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank in connection with such Issuing Bank’s payment under a Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, not subject to any counterclaim, setoff, qualification or exception whatsoever, and shall be made in accordance with this Agreement under all circumstances, irrespective of any lack of validity or unenforceability of any Loan Documents; any draft, certificate or other document presented under a Letter of Credit having been determined to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; any waiver by Issuing Bank of a requirement that exists for its protection (and not a Borrower’s protection) or that does not materially prejudice a Borrower; any honor of an electronic demand for payment even if a draft is required; any payment of an item presented after a Letter of Credit’s expiration date if authorized by the UCC or applicable customs or practices; or any setoff or defense that any Obligor may have with respect to any Obligations.  No Issuing Bank assumes any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by any Borrower or other Person of any obligations under any LC Documents.  No Issuing Bank makes to Lenders any express or implied warranty, representation or guaranty with respect to the Collateral, LC Documents or any Obligor.  No Issuing Bank shall be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in, or for the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any LC Documents; the validity, genuineness, enforceability, collectibility, value or sufficiency of any Collateral or the perfection of any Lien therein; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Obligor.

(d)           No Issuing Bank Indemnitee shall be liable to any Lender or other Person for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with any Letter of Credit or LC Document except as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct.  Issuing Bank may refrain from taking any action

43

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

with respect to a Letter of Credit until it receives written instructions (and in its discretion, appropriate assurances) from the Lenders.

2.3.3.            Cash Collateral.  If any LC Obligations, whether or not then due or payable, shall for any reason be outstanding at any time (a) that an Event of Default exists, (b) that U.S. Revolver Availability or Canadian Availability, as the case may be, is less than zero, (c) after the Applicable Commitment Termination Date, or (d) within five (5) Business Days prior to the Applicable Termination Date, then the applicable Borrower or Borrowers shall, at the applicable Issuing Bank’s or the Applicable Agent’s request, Cash Collateralize the stated amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued for the account or benefit of such Borrower or Borrowers and pay to each applicable Issuing Bank the amount of all other outstanding LC Obligations of such Borrower or Borrowers owed to such Issuing Bank.  The applicable Borrower or Borrowers shall, on demand by the applicable Issuing Bank or the Applicable Agent from time to time, Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of any Defaulting Lender that has not been Cash Collateralized by such Defaulting Lender.  If any Borrower fails to provide any Cash Collateral as required hereunder, the Applicable Lenders may (and shall upon direction of the Applicable Agent) advance, as U.S. Revolver Loans or Canadian Loans, as the case may be, the amount of the Cash Collateral required (whether or not the U.S. Revolver Commitments or Canadian Commitments, as the case may be, have terminated, a U.S. Revolver Overadvance or Canadian Overadvance, as the case may be, exists or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied).

2.3.4.            Resignation of Issuing Banks.  Any Issuing Bank may resign at any time upon notice to the Applicable Agent and the applicable Borrower or Borrowers.  On and after the effective date of such resignation, such Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue, amend, renew, extend or otherwise modify any Letter of Credit, but shall continue to have all rights and other obligations of an Issuing Bank hereunder relating to any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank prior to such date.  The Applicable Agent shall promptly appoint a replacement Issuing Bank, which, as long as no Default or Event of Default exists, shall be reasonably acceptable to the applicable Borrower or Borrowers.

SECTION 3.        INTEREST, FEES AND CHARGES

3.1.         Interest.

3.1.1.            Rates and Payment of Interest.

(a)           The Obligations shall bear interest (i) if a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin; (ii) if a Canadian Prime Rate Loan, at the Canadian Prime Rate in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin; (iii) if a LIBOR Loan, at LIBOR for the applicable Interest Period, plus the Applicable Margin; (iv) if a BA Equivalent Rate Loan, at the BA Equivalent Rate for the applicable Interest Period, plus the Applicable Margin; and (v) if any other Obligation (including, to the extent permitted by law, interest not paid when due), at the Applicable Floating Rate in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin.  Interest shall accrue from the date the Loan is advanced or the Obligation is incurred or payable, until paid by the applicable Borrower or Borrowers.  If a Loan is repaid on the same day made, one day’s interest shall accrue.

(b)           During an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to any Borrower, or during any other Event of Default if Administrative Agent or Required Lenders in their discretion so elect, Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate (whether before or after any judgment).  Each Borrower acknowledges that the cost and expense to Agents and Lenders due to an Event of Default are difficult to ascertain and that the Default Rate is fair and reasonable compensation for this.

44

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

(c)           Interest accrued on the Loans shall be due and payable in arrears, (i) (x) with respect to any Applicable Offered Rate Loan, the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for an Applicable Offered Rate Loan exceeds three (3) months, interest accrued on such Loan shall also be due and payable on the respective dates that fall every three (3) months after the beginning of such Interest Period and (y) with respect any Applicable Floating Rate Loan, on the first day of each month; (ii) on any date of prepayment, with respect to the principal amount of Loans being prepaid; and (iii) on the Applicable Commitment Termination Date.  Interest accrued on any other Obligations shall be due and payable as provided in the Loan Documents and, if no payment date is specified, shall be due and payable on demand.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest accrued at the Default Rate shall be due and payable on demand.

3.1.2.            Application of Applicable Offered Rate to Outstanding Loans.

(a)           Borrowers may on any Business Day, subject to delivery of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, elect to convert any portion of Base Rate Loans to, or to continue any Applicable Offered Rate Loan at the end of its Interest Period as, an Applicable Offered Rate Loan.  During any Default or Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may (and shall at the direction of Required Lenders) declare that no Loan may be made, converted or continued as an Applicable Offered Rate Loan.

(b)           Whenever Borrowers desire to convert or continue Loans as Applicable Offered Rate Loans, Borrower Agent or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, shall give Administrative Agent or the Canadian Agent, as the case may be, a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, no later than 11:00 a.m. at least three Business Days before the requested conversion or continuation date.  Promptly after receiving any such notice, the Applicable Agent shall notify each Applicable Lender thereof.  Each Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall be irrevocable, and shall specify the amount of Loans to be converted or continued, the conversion or continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), and the duration of the Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be 30 days if not specified).  If, upon the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of any Applicable Offered Rate Loans, (i) Borrower Agent shall have failed to deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, it shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Loans into Base Rate Loans and (ii) the Canadian Borrower shall have failed to deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, it shall be deemed to have elected to continue such Loan as a BA Equivalent Rate Loan with an Interest Period of one month.  Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, nor shall it have any liability with respect to, administration, submission or any other matter related to any rate described in the definition of LIBOR.

3.1.3.            Interest Periods.  In connection with the making, conversion or continuation of any Applicable Offered Rate Loans, Borrower Agent or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, shall select an interest period (“Interest Period”) to apply, which interest period shall be a period of one month, two months, three months, six months or, with the approval of all affected Lenders, nine months; provided, however, that:

(a)           the Interest Period shall commence on the date the Loan is made or continued as, or converted into, an Applicable Offered Rate Loan, and shall expire on the numerically corresponding day in the applicable calendar month at its end;

(b)           if any Interest Period commences on a day for which there is no corresponding day in the applicable calendar month at its end or if such corresponding day falls after the last Business Day of such month, then the Interest Period shall expire on the last Business Day of such month; and if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, the period shall expire on the next Business Day; and

45

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

(c)           no Interest Period shall extend beyond the Applicable Termination Date.

3.1.4.            Interest Rate Not Ascertainable.  If the Applicable Agent shall determine that on any date for determining LIBOR or the BA Equivalent Rate, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining such rate on the basis provided herein, then the Applicable Agent shall immediately notify the applicable Borrower or Borrowers of such determination.  Until the Applicable Agent notifies the applicable Borrower or Borrowers that such circumstance no longer exists, the obligation of the Applicable Lenders to make Applicable Offered Rate Loans shall be suspended, and no further Loans may be converted into or continued as Applicable Offered Rate Loans.

3.2.         Fees.

3.2.1.            Unused Line Fees.

(a)           U.S. Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of U.S. Revolver Lenders, a fee equal to the Unused Line Fee Rate times the amount by which the U.S. Revolver Commitments exceed the average daily Total U.S. Revolver Outstandings during any Fiscal Quarter.  Such fee shall be payable in arrears, on the first day of each calendar quarter and on the U.S. Revolver Commitment Termination Date.  For the avoidance of doubt, the outstanding amount of Swingline Loans made to the U.S. Borrowers shall not be counted toward or considered usage of the U.S. Revolver Commitments for purposes of determining the unused line fee.

(b)           Canadian Borrower shall pay to Canadian Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of Canadian Lenders, a fee equal to the Unused Line Fee Rate times the amount by which the Canadian Commitments exceed the average daily Total Canadian Outstandings during any Fiscal Quarter.  Such fee shall be payable in arrears, on the first day of each calendar quarter and on the Canadian Commitment Termination Date.  For the avoidance of doubt, the outstanding amount of Swingline Loans made to the Canadian Borrower shall not be counted toward or considered usage of the Canadian Commitments for purposes of determining the unused line fee.

3.2.2.            LC Facility Fees.  The applicable Borrower or Borrowers shall pay (a) to the Applicable Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of the Applicable Lenders, a fee equal to the Applicable Margin in effect for Applicable Offered Rate Loans times the average daily stated amount of Letters of Credit issued for the account or benefit of such Borrower or Borrowers, which fee shall be payable monthly in arrears, on the first day of each month; (b) to the applicable Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum on the stated amount of each Letter of Credit issued by it for the account or benefit of such Borrower or Borrowers (or such other amount as may be mutually agreed by such Borrower(s) and such Issuing Bank), which fee shall be payable monthly in arrears, on the first day of each month; and (c) to the applicable Issuing Bank, for its own account, all customary charges associated with the issuance, amending, negotiating, payment, processing, transfer and administration of Letters of Credit issued for the account or benefit of such Borrower or Borrowers, which charges shall be paid as and when incurred.  During an Event of Default, the fee payable under clause (a) shall, subject to the Interest Act (Canada), be increased by 2% per annum.

3.2.3.            Administrative Agent Fees.  Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the fees described in the Fee Letter and any other fee letter executed in connection with this Agreement.

3.3.         Computation of Interest, Fees, Yield Protection.  All computations of interest for Applicable Offered Rate Loans shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed.  All other computations of interest, as well as fees and other charges calculated on a per annum basis, shall

46

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

be computed for the actual days elapsed, based on a year of 365 days.  For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), (a) whenever a rate of interest or fee rate hereunder is calculated on the basis of a year (the “deemed year”) that contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest or fee rate shall be expressed as a yearly rate by multiplying such rate of interest or fee rate by the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation (365) and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year, (b) the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest shall not apply to any interest calculation hereunder and (c) the rates of interest stipulated herein are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields.  Each determination by any Agent of any interest, fees or interest rate hereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.  All fees shall be fully earned when due and shall not be subject to rebate, refund or proration.  All fees payable under Section 3.2 are compensation for services and are not intended to be, and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law shall not be deemed to be, interest or any other charge for the use, forbearance or detention of money.  A certificate as to amounts payable by Borrowers under Section 3.4, 3.6, 3.7, 3.9 or 5.9, submitted to Borrower Agent or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, by the Applicable Agent or the affected Lender, as applicable, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the applicable Borrower or Borrowers shall pay such amounts to the appropriate party within 10 days following receipt of the certificate.

3.4.         Reimbursement Obligations.  Borrowers shall reimburse Agents and Lenders for all Extraordinary Expenses.  Borrowers shall also reimburse Agents for all reasonable legal, accounting, appraisal, consulting, and other fees, costs and expenses incurred by them in connection with (a) negotiation and preparation of any Loan Documents, including any amendment or other modification thereof; (b) administration of and actions relating to any Collateral, Loan Documents and transactions contemplated thereby, including (i) any actions taken to perfect or maintain priority of each Agent’s Liens on any Collateral, to maintain any insurance required hereunder or to verify Collateral and (ii) the Platform or any other dedicated agency web page on the internet to distribute to the Lenders and to other investors or potential investors any required documentation and financial information regarding the Loan Documents and the Loans; and (c) subject to the limits of Section 10.1.1(b), each inspection, audit or appraisal with respect to any Obligor or Collateral, whether prepared by any Agent’s personnel or a third party.  Legal, accounting and consulting fees may be charged to Borrowers by Agents’ professionals at their usual and customary hourly rates for similar services, regardless of any reduced or alternative fee billing arrangements that any Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates may have with such professionals with respect to this or any other transaction.  Borrowers acknowledge that counsel may provide the Administrative Agent with a benefit, such as a discount, credit or other accommodation, based on counsel’s overall relationship with the Administrative Agent, including fees paid hereunder.  If, for any reason (including inaccurate reporting on financial statements or a Compliance Certificate), it is determined that a higher Applicable Margin should have applied to a period than was actually applied, then the proper margin shall be applied retroactively and Borrowers shall immediately pay to the Applicable Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of the Applicable Lenders, an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest and fees that would have accrued using the proper margin and the amount actually paid.  All amounts payable by Borrowers under this Section shall be due on demand.

3.5.         Illegality.  If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder to make, maintain, fund or charge applicable interest or fees with respect to any Loans or Letters of Credit, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon any Applicable Offered Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, U.S. Dollars or Canadian Dollars in the London interbank market, any other relevant interbank market or the position of such Lender in such market then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Applicable Agent, any obligation of such Lender to perform such obligations to make, maintain or fund such Loans or participate in such Letters of Credit (or to charge interest or fees

47

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

with respect thereto), or to continue Applicable Offered Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Applicable Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.  Upon delivery of such notice, Borrowers shall prepay the applicable Loans, Cash Collateralize the applicable LC Obligations or, in the case of the U.S. Borrowers and if applicable, convert all LIBOR Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Base Rate Loans.  Upon any such prepayment or conversion, Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

3.6.         Inability to Determine Rates.  The Applicable Agent will promptly notify Borrower Agent and Lenders if, in connection with any request for a Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, an Applicable Offered Rate Loan (a) such Agent determines that (i) deposits (whether in U.S. Dollars or Canadian Dollars) are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore interbank market for such currency for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Loan, or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining LIBOR or the BA Equivalent Rate for the requested Interest Period, or (b) such Agent or Required Lenders determine for any reason that LIBOR or the BA Equivalent Rate for the requested Interest Period does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan.  Thereafter, the obligation of the Applicable Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Loans or BA Equivalent Rate Loans, as the case may be, shall be suspended until the Applicable Agent (upon instruction by Required Lenders) withdraws such notice.  Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower Agent or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of an Applicable Offered Rate Loan (and, in the case of the revocation of a request for a continuation of a BA Equivalent Rate Loan, the Canadian Borrower shall prepay such BA Equivalent Rate Loan) or, failing that, solely with respect to the Borrower Agent, the Borrower Agent will be deemed to have submitted a request for a Base Rate Loan.

3.7.         Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.

3.7.1.            Increased Costs Generally.  If any Change in Law shall:

(a)           impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, liquidity, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in LIBOR) or any Issuing Bank;

(b)           subject any Recipient to Taxes (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and (iii) Connection Income Taxes) with respect to any Loan, Letter of Credit, U.S. Revolver Commitment, Canadian Commitment or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(c)           impose on any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting any Loan, Loan Document, Letter of Credit, participation in LC Obligations, or U.S. Revolver Commitment or Canadian Commitment;

and the result thereof shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan, U.S. Revolver Commitment or Canadian Commitment, or converting to or continuing any interest option for a Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or

48

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

such Issuing Bank, the applicable Borrower or Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

3.7.2.            Capital Requirements.  If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Issuing Bank or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s, such Issuing Bank’s or such holding company’s capital as a consequence of this Agreement, or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s U.S. Revolver Commitments, Canadian Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or participations in LC Obligations, to a level below that which such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s, such Issuing Bank’s and such holding company’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the applicable Borrower or Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it or its holding company for any such reduction suffered.

3.7.3.            Compensation.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of its right to demand such compensation, but Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that the Lender or the Issuing Bank notifies Borrower Agent or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

3.8.         Mitigation.  If any Lender gives a notice under Section 3.5 or requests compensation under Section 3.7, or if any Borrower is required to pay additional amounts with respect to a Lender under Section 5.9, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (a) would eliminate the need for such notice or reduce amounts payable or to be withheld in the future, as applicable; and (b) would not subject the Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to it or unlawful.  Borrowers shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

3.9.         Funding Losses.  If for any reason (other than default by a Lender) (a) any Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, an Applicable Offered Rate Loan does not occur on the date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn), (b) any repayment or conversion of an Applicable Offered Rate Loan occurs on a day other than the end of its Interest Period, (c) the applicable Borrower or Borrowers fail to repay an Applicable Offered Rate Loan when required hereunder, or (d) a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) is required to assign an Applicable Offered Rate Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period pursuant to Section 13.4, then the applicable Borrower or Borrowers shall pay to the Applicable Agent its customary administrative charge and to each Applicable Lender all resulting losses and expenses, including loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from liquidation or redeployment of funds or from fees payable to terminate deposits of matching funds.  Lenders shall not be required to purchase U.S. Dollar or Canadian Dollar deposits in any interbank or offshore U.S. Dollar or Canadian Dollar market to fund any Applicable Offered Rate Loan, but this Section shall apply as if each Lender had purchased such deposits.

3.10.       Maximum Interest.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by Applicable Law (“maximum rate”).  If any Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the maximum rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Obligations or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrowers.  In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by an Agent or a Lender exceeds the maximum rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest; (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.  In addition to the foregoing, if any provision of this Agreement or of any of the other Loan Documents would obligate the Canadian Borrower or any other Obligor to make any payment of “interest” (as defined in Section 347 (the “Criminal Code Section”) of the Criminal Code (Canada)) or other amount payable to any Canadian Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate that would exceed the effective annual rate of interest lawfully permitted under the Criminal Code Section on the “credit advanced” (as defined in the Criminal Code Section) or would otherwise be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by such Canadian Lender of “interest” at a “criminal rate” (as such terms are defined in the Criminal Code Section) then, notwithstanding such provisions, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law or so result in a receipt by such Canadian Lender of interest at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, as follows: (i) first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid to such Canadian Lender under this Agreement, and (ii) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to such Canadian Lender which would constitute “interest” for purposes of the Criminal Code Section.  Any amount or rate of interest referred to in this Agreement shall be determined in accordance with GAAP as an effective annual rate of interest over the term that the applicable Loan remains outstanding on the assumption that any charges, fees or expenses that fall within the meaning of “interest” under the Criminal Code Section shall, if they relate to a specific period of time, be pro-rated over that period of time and otherwise be pro-rated over the period from the Closing Date to the Applicable Termination Date and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by Applicable Agent shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, for the purposes of such determination.

SECTION 4.        LOAN ADMINISTRATION

4.1.         Manner of Borrowing and Funding Loans.

4.1.1.            Notice of Borrowing.

(a)           Whenever (x) U.S. Borrowers desire funding of a Borrowing of U.S. Revolver Loans, Borrower Agent shall give Administrative Agent, and (y) Canadian Borrower desires funding of a Borrowing of Canadian Loans, Canadian Borrower shall give Canadian Agent, a Notice of Borrowing.  Such notice must be received by the Applicable Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (i) on the Business Day of the requested funding date, in the case of Base Rate Loans, and (ii) at least three Business Days prior to the requested funding date, in the case of Applicable Offered Rate Loans.  Notices received after 11:00 a.m. shall be deemed received on the next Business Day.  Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) the amount of the Borrowing, (B) the requested funding date (which must be a Business Day), (C) whether the Borrowing is to be made as Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans, in the case of U.S. Revolver Loans, and (D) in the case of LIBOR Loans or BA Equivalent Rate Loans, the duration of the applicable Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be one month if not specified).

50

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

(b)Unless payment is otherwise timely made by Borrowers, the becoming due of any Obligations (whether principal, interest, fees or other charges, including Extraordinary Expenses, LC Obligations, Cash Collateral and Secured Bank Product Obligations) shall be deemed to be a request for Base Rate Loans on the due date, in the amount of such Obligations.  The proceeds of such Loans shall be disbursed as direct payment of the relevant Obligation.  In addition, the Applicable Agent may, at its option, charge such Obligations against any operating, investment or other account of a U.S. Borrower or Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, maintained with such Agent or any of its Affiliates.

(c)If any Borrower maintains any disbursement account with any Agent or any Affiliate of any Agent, then presentation for payment of any Payment Item when there are insufficient funds to cover it shall be deemed to be a request for a Base Rate Loan, in the case of the U.S. Borrowers, or a BA Equivalent Rate Loan, in the case of the Canadian Borrower, on the date of such presentation, in the amount of the Payment Item.  The proceeds of such Loan may be disbursed directly to the disbursement account.

4.1.2.Fundings by Lenders.  Each Applicable Lender shall timely honor its U.S. Revolver Commitment or Canadian Commitment, as the case may be, by funding its Pro Rata share of each Borrowing of Loans that is properly requested hereunder.  Except for Borrowings to be made as Swingline Loans, the Applicable Agent shall endeavor to notify the Applicable Lenders of each Notice of Borrowing (or deemed request for a Borrowing) by 12:00 noon on the proposed funding date for Base Rate Loans or by 3:00 p.m. at least two Business Days before any proposed funding of Applicable Offered Rate Loans.  Each Applicable Lender shall fund to the Applicable Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the Borrowing to the account specified by the Applicable Agent in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the requested funding date, unless the Applicable Agent’s notice is received after the times provided above, in which case the Applicable Lender shall fund its Pro Rata share by 11:00 a.m. on the next Business Day.  Subject to its receipt of such amounts from the Applicable Lenders, the Applicable Agent shall disburse the proceeds of the Loans as directed by Borrower Agent or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be.  Unless the Applicable Agent shall have received (in sufficient time to act) written notice from a Lender that it does not intend to fund its Pro Rata share of a Borrowing, the Applicable Agent may assume that such Lender has deposited or promptly will deposit its share with such Agent, and such Agent may disburse a corresponding amount to U.S. Borrowers or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be.  If a Lender’s share of any Borrowing or of any settlement pursuant to Section 4.1.3(b) is not received by the Applicable Agent, then the applicable Borrower or Borrowers agree to repay to the Applicable Agent on demand the amount of such share, together with interest thereon from the date disbursed until repaid, at the rate applicable to the Borrowing.  Subject to Section 3.8, a Lender or Issuing Bank may fulfill its obligations under Loan Documents through one or more Lending Offices, and this shall not affect any obligation of Obligors under the Loan Documents or with respect to any Obligations.

4.1.3.Swingline Loans; Settlement.

(a)The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, advance Swingline Loans to the U.S. Borrowers, up to an aggregate outstanding amount equal to U.S.$45,000,000, and the Canadian Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, advance Swingline Loans to the Canadian Borrower, up to an aggregate outstanding amount equal to U.S.$3,500,000, unless, in either case, the funding is specifically required to be made by the Canadian Lenders hereunder and, provided, that the aggregate outstanding amount of all Swingline Loans shall not exceed U.S.$45,000,000 at any time.  Each Swingline Loan to the U.S. Borrowers shall constitute a Base Rate Loan and each Swingline Loan to the Canadian Borrower shall constitute a Canadian Prime Rate Loan for all purposes, except that payments thereon shall be made to the Applicable Agent for its own account until Lenders have funded their participations therein as

51

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

provided below.  The obligation of Borrowers to repay Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by the records of the Applicable Agent and need not be evidenced by any promissory note.

(b)Settlement among the Applicable Lenders and the Applicable Agent with respect to Swingline Loans and other Loans shall take place on a date determined from time to time by such Agent (but at least weekly), on a Pro Rata basis in accordance with the Settlement Report delivered by the Applicable Agent to the Applicable Lenders.  Between settlement dates, the Applicable Agent may in its discretion apply payments on Loans to Swingline Loans, regardless of any designation by any Borrower or any provision herein to the contrary.  Each Lender hereby purchases, without recourse or warranty, an undivided Pro Rata participation in all Swingline Loans outstanding from time to time until settled.  If a Swingline Loan cannot be settled among Lenders, whether due to an Obligor’s Insolvency Proceeding or for any other reason, each Lender shall pay the amount of its participation in the Loan to the Applicable Agent, in immediately available funds, within one Business Day after the Applicable Agent’s request therefor.  Lenders’ obligations to make settlements and to fund participations are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, without offset, counterclaim or other defense, and whether or not the U.S. Revolver Commitments or Canadian Commitments, as the case may be, have terminated, a U.S. Revolver Overadvance or Canadian Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied.

4.1.4.Notices.  Borrowers may request, convert or continue Loans, select interest rates, and transfer funds based on telephonic or e-mailed instructions to the Applicable Agent.  Borrowers shall confirm each such request by prompt delivery to the Applicable Agent of a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, if applicable, but if such notice differs materially from the action taken by the Applicable Agent or the Applicable Lenders pursuant to the telephonic or e-mailed instructions from Borrowers, the records of such Agent and such Lenders shall govern.  No Agent or Lender shall have any liability for any loss suffered by a Borrower as a result of any Agent or any Lender acting upon its understanding of telephonic or e-mailed instructions from a person believed in good faith by any Agent or any Lender to be a person authorized to give such instructions on a Borrower’s behalf.

4.2.Defaulting Lender.

4.2.1.Reallocation of Pro Rata Share; Amendments.  For purposes of determining Lenders’ obligations or rights to fund, participate in or receive collections with respect to Loans and Letters of Credit (including existing Swingline Loans, Protective Advances and LC Obligations), each Agent may exclude the U.S. Revolver Commitments, Canadian Commitments and Loans of a Defaulting Lender from the calculation of Pro Rata shares, it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that any such calculation relating to a Non-Defaulting Lender’s obligations to fund and participate in respect of Loans and Letters of Credit shall not cause (a) the U.S. Revolver Loans and participation in U.S. LC Obligations of any such Non-Defaulting Lender that is a U.S. Revolver Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s U.S. Revolver Commitment, or (b) the Canadian Loans and participation in Canadian LC Obligations of any such Non-Defaulting Lender that is a Canadian Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Canadian Commitment.  A Defaulting Lender shall have no right to vote on any amendment, waiver or other modification of a Loan Document, except as provided in Section 14.1.1(c).

4.2.2.Payments; Fees.  Each Agent may, in its discretion, receive and retain any amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender under the Loan Documents, and a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have assigned to such Agent such amounts until all Obligations owing to such Agent, non-Defaulting Lenders and other Secured Parties have been paid in full.  Each Agent may apply such amounts to the Defaulting Lender’s defaulted obligations, use the funds to Cash Collateralize such Lender’s Fronting Exposure, or readvance the amounts to Borrowers hereunder.  A Lender shall not be entitled to receive any fees accruing hereunder during the period in which it is a Defaulting Lender, and the unfunded portion of its U.S. Revolver Commitment and/or Canadian Commitment shall be

52

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

disregarded for purposes of calculating the unused line fee under Section 3.2.1.  To the extent any LC Obligations owing to a Defaulting Lender are reallocated to other Lenders, Letter of Credit fees attributable to such LC Obligations under Section 3.2.2 shall be paid to such other Lenders.  The Applicable Agent shall be paid all Letter of Credit fees attributable to LC Obligations that are not so reallocated.

4.2.3.Reallocation of Pro Rata Shares to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in LC Obligations and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s U.S. Revolver Commitment and/or Canadian Commitment, as applicable) but only to the extent that (a) the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower Agent shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (b) such reallocation does not cause (i) the U.S. Revolver Loans and participation in U.S. LC Obligations of any Non-Defaulting Lender that is a U.S. Revolver Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s U.S. Revolver Commitment, or (ii) the Canadian Loans and participation in Canadian LC Obligations of any Non-Defaulting Lender that is a Canadian Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Canadian Commitment.  No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

4.2.4.Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swingline Loans.  If the reallocation described in Section 4.2.3 above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall, subject to Section 4.5, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to them hereunder or under Applicable Law, (a) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Fronting Exposure of the Lenders holding Swingline Loans and (b) second, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.3.3.

4.2.5.Status; Cure.  The Applicable Agent may determine in its discretion that a Lender constitutes a Defaulting Lender and the effective date of such status shall be conclusive and binding on all parties, absent manifest error.  Borrowers, the Applicable Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank may agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, whereupon Pro Rata shares shall be reallocated without exclusion of the reinstated Lender’s U.S. Revolver Commitments, Canadian Commitments and Loans, and all outstanding Loans, LC Obligations and other exposures under the U.S. Revolver Commitments and Canadian Commitments shall be reallocated among the Applicable Lenders and settled by the Applicable Agent (with appropriate payments by the reinstated Lender, including payment of any breakage costs for reallocated LIBOR Loans) in accordance with the readjusted Pro Rata shares.  Unless expressly agreed by Borrowers, the Applicable Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, no reallocation of Commitments and Loans to non-Defaulting Lenders and no reinstatement of a Defaulting Lender shall constitute a waiver or release of claims against such Lender.  The failure of any Lender to fund a Loan, to make a payment in respect of LC Obligations or otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations, and no Lender shall be responsible for default by another Lender.

4.3.Number and Amount of Applicable Offered Rate Loans; Determination of Rate.  Each Borrowing of Applicable Offered Rate Loans when made shall be in a minimum amount of U.S.$1,000,000, plus any increment of U.S.$1,000,000 in excess thereof.  No more than 16 Borrowings of Applicable Offered Rate Loans may be outstanding at any time, and all Applicable Offered Rate Loans having the same length and beginning date of their Interest Periods shall be aggregated together and considered one Borrowing for this purpose.  Upon determining LIBOR or the BA Equivalent Rate, as the

53

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

case may be, for any Interest Period requested by U.S. Borrowers or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, the Applicable Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower or Borrowers thereof by telephone or electronically and, if requested by such Borrower or Borrowers, shall confirm any telephonic notice in writing.

4.4.Borrower Agent.  Each Borrower hereby designates UNFI (“Borrower Agent”) as its representative and agent for all purposes under the Loan Documents, including requests for Loans and Letters of Credit, designation of interest rates, delivery or receipt of communications, preparation and delivery of Borrowing Base Certificates and financial reports, receipt and payment of Obligations, requests for waivers, amendments or other accommodations, actions under the Loan Documents (including in respect of compliance with covenants), and all other dealings with any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender.  Borrower Agent hereby accepts such appointment.  Each Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any notice or communication (including any notice of borrowing) delivered by Borrower Agent on behalf of any Borrower.  Each Agent and Lenders may give any notice or communication with a Borrower hereunder to Borrower Agent on behalf of such Borrower.  Each Agent, Issuing Bank and Lender shall have the right, in its discretion, to deal exclusively with Borrower Agent for any or all purposes under the Loan Documents.  Each Borrower agrees that any notice, election, communication, representation, agreement or undertaking made on its behalf by Borrower Agent shall be binding upon and enforceable against it.

4.5.One Obligation; Limitation on Obligations of Canadian Borrower.  The Loans, LC Obligations and other Obligations constitute one general obligation of U.S. Borrowers and are secured by the Applicable Agent’s Lien on all Collateral; provided, however, that each Agent and each Lender shall be deemed to be a creditor of, and the holder of a separate claim against, each U.S. Borrower to the extent of any Obligations jointly or severally owed by such U.S. Borrower.  The Canadian Loans, Canadian LC Obligations and other Canadian Obligations constitute one general obligation of the Canadian Borrower and are secured by Canadian Agent’s Lien on all Collateral owned by Canadian Borrower.  Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, the Canadian Borrower shall not at any time be liable, directly or indirectly, for any portion of the Obligations other than the Canadian Obligations.

4.6.Effect of Termination.  On the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments, all Obligations shall be immediately due and payable, and each Secured Bank Product Provider may terminate its Bank Products in accordance with the terms thereof.  Until Full Payment of the Obligations, all undertakings of Borrowers contained in the Loan Documents shall continue, and the Applicable Agent shall retain its Liens in the Collateral and all of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents.  No Agent shall be required to terminate its Liens unless it receives Cash Collateral or a written agreement, in each case satisfactory to it, protecting Agents and Lenders from the dishonor or return of any Payment Items previously applied to the Obligations.  Sections 3.4, 3.7, 3.9, 5.5, 5.9, 5.10, 12, 14.2, this Section, and each indemnity or waiver given by an Obligor or Lender in any Loan Document, shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations.

SECTION 5.PAYMENTS

5.1.General Payment Provisions.  Except with respect to principal of and interest on Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, all payments of Obligations shall be made in U.S. Dollars, without offset, counterclaim or defense of any kind, free of (and without deduction for) any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law, and in immediately available funds, not later than 12:00 noon on the due date.  If any payment to be made by any Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all

54

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

payments by the Borrowers hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars shall be made to the Canadian Agent, for the account of the Applicable Lenders to which such payment is owed, in Canadian Dollars in immediately available funds, not later than 12:00 noon on the due date.  Any payment after such time shall be deemed made on the next Business Day.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States.  If, for any reason, any Borrower is prohibited by any law from making any required payment hereunder in Canadian Dollars, such Borrower shall make such payment in U.S. Dollars in the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the Canadian Dollar payment amount.   Any payment of an Applicable Offered Rate Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period shall be accompanied by all amounts due under Section 3.9.  Any prepayment of Loans shall be applied first to Applicable Floating Rate Loans and then to Applicable Offered Rate Loans.

5.2.Repayment of Loans.  Loans shall be due and payable in full on the Applicable Termination Date, unless payment is sooner required hereunder.  Loans may be prepaid from time to time, without penalty or premium.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if a U.S. Revolver Overadvance or a Canadian Overadvance exists, U.S. Borrowers or Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, shall, on the sooner of the Applicable Agent’s demand or the first Business Day after any U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, has knowledge thereof, repay the outstanding applicable Loans in an amount sufficient to reduce the Total U.S. Revolver Outstandings or the Total Canadian Outstandings, as the case may be, to the U.S. Revolver Borrowing Base or the Canadian Borrowing Base, as the case may be.

5.3.[Intentionally Omitted.]

5.4.Payment of Other Obligations.  Obligations other than Loans, including LC Obligations and Extraordinary Expenses, shall be paid by Borrowers (subject to Section 4.5) as provided in the Loan Documents or, if no payment date is specified, on demand made to the applicable Borrowers.

5.5.Marshaling; Payments Set Aside.  None of Agents or Lenders shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Obligor or against any Obligations.  If any payment by or on behalf of Borrowers is made to any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, or any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender exercises a right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other Person, then to the extent of such recovery, the Obligation originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies relating thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred.

5.6.Application and Allocation of Payments.

5.6.1.Application.  Payments made by Borrowers hereunder shall be applied (a) first, as specifically required hereby; (b) second, to Obligations then due and owing; (b) third, to other Obligations specified by Borrowers; and (c) fourth, as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

5.6.2.Post-Default Allocation.  Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, during an Event of Default, monies to be applied to the Obligations, whether arising from payments by Obligors, realization on Collateral, setoff or otherwise, shall be allocated, subject to Section 4.5, as follows:

55

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

(a)first, to all fees, indemnification, costs and expenses, including Extraordinary Expenses, owing to any Agent;

(b)second, to all amounts owing to any Agent on Swingline Loans, Overadvances, Protective Advances, and Loans and participations that a Defaulting Lender has failed to settle or fund;

(c)third, to all amounts owing to Issuing Bank;

(d)fourth, to all Obligations (other than Secured Bank Product Obligations) constituting fees, indemnification, costs or expenses owing to Lenders;

(e)fifth, to all Obligations (other than Secured Bank Product Obligations) constituting interest;

(f)sixth, to Cash Collateralize all LC Obligations;

(g)seventh, to all Loans (other than Overadvances and Protective Advances), and to Qualified Secured Bank Product Obligations to the extent a Bank Product Reserve has been established with respect thereto up to and including the amount most recently specified to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms hereof, if applicable; and

(h)last, to all other Obligations.

Amounts shall be applied to payment of each category of Obligations only after Full Payment of amounts payable from time to time under all preceding categories.  If amounts are insufficient to satisfy a category, they shall be paid ratably among outstanding Obligations in the category.  Monies and proceeds obtained from an Obligor shall not be applied to its Excluded Swap Obligations, but appropriate adjustments shall be made with respect to amounts obtained from other Obligors to preserve the allocations in any applicable category.  Amounts distributed with respect to any Secured Bank Product Obligations or Qualified Secured Bank Product Obligations shall be the lesser of (i) the maximum Secured Bank Product Obligations or Qualified Secured Bank Product Obligations, as the case may be, last reported to the Administrative Agent, if applicable, and (ii) the actual Secured Bank Product Obligations or Qualified Secured Bank Product Obligations, as the case may be, as calculated by the methodology reported to the Administrative Agent, if applicable, for determining the amount due. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to calculate the amount to be distributed with respect to any Secured Bank Product Obligations or Qualified Secured Bank Product Obligations, and may request a reasonably detailed calculation of such amount from the applicable Secured Bank Product Provider.  If the provider fails to deliver the calculation within five days following request, the Administrative Agent may assume the amount is zero.  The allocations set forth in this Section are solely to determine the rights and priorities among Secured Parties, and may be changed by agreement of the affected Secured Parties, without the consent of any Obligor.  This Section is not for the benefit of or enforceable by any Obligor, and each Borrower irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any payments or Collateral proceeds subject to this Section.

5.6.3.Erroneous Application. No Agent shall be liable for any application of amounts made by it in good faith and, if any such application is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender or other Person to which such amount should have been made shall be to recover the amount from the Person that actually received it (and, if such amount was received by any Lender, such Lender hereby agrees to return it).

56

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

5.7.Application of Payments.  While a Trigger Event is in effect, the ledger balance in the main Dominion Account for the Obligors (other than the Canadian Borrower) as of the end of a Business Day shall be applied to the Obligations and the ledger balance in the main Dominion Account for the Canadian Borrower as of the end of such Business Day shall be applied to the Canadian Obligations, in each case at the beginning of the next Business Day.  If, as a result of such application, a credit balance exists, the balance shall not accrue interest in favor of U.S. Borrowers or Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, and shall be made available to U.S. Borrowers or Canadian Borrower, as the case may be, as long as no Default or Event of Default exists.  Each Borrower irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any payments or Collateral proceeds, and agrees that each Agent shall have the continuing, exclusive right to apply and reapply same against the applicable Obligations, in such manner as such Agent deems advisable.

5.8.Loan Account; Account Stated.

5.8.1.Loan Account.  The Applicable Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual and customary practices an account or accounts (“Loan Account”) evidencing the Debt of Borrowers resulting from each Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit from time to time.  Any failure of such Agent to record anything in the Loan Account, or any error in doing so, shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrowers to pay any amount owing hereunder.

5.8.2.Entries Binding.  Entries made in the Loan Account shall constitute presumptive evidence of the information contained therein.  If any information contained in the Loan Account is provided to or inspected by any Person, then such information shall be conclusive and binding on such Person for all purposes absent manifest error, except to the extent such Person notifies the Applicable Agent in writing within 30 days after receipt or inspection that specific information is subject to dispute.

5.9.Taxes.

5.9.1.Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Tax Payment.

(a)All payments of Obligations by Obligors shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law.  If Applicable Law (as determined by the Applicable Agent in its good faith discretion) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by an Agent or an Obligor, then the Applicable Agent or such Obligor shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding based on information and documentation provided pursuant to Section 5.10.

(b)If any Agent or any Obligor is required by the Code to withhold or deduct Taxes, including backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (i) such Agent shall pay the full amount that it determines is to be withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority pursuant to the Code, and (ii) to the extent the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Obligor shall be increased as necessary so that the Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

(c)If any Agent or any Obligor is required by any Applicable Law other than the Code to withhold or deduct Taxes from any payment, then (i) such Agent or such Obligor, to the extent required by Applicable Law, shall timely pay the full amount to be withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority, and (ii) to the extent the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Obligor shall be increased as necessary so that the

57

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

5.9.2.Payment of Other Taxes.  Without limiting the foregoing, Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the Applicable Agent’s option, timely reimburse such Agent for payment of, any Other Taxes.

5.9.3.Tax Indemnification.

(a)Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless, on a joint and several basis, each Recipient against any Indemnified Taxes (including those imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by a Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to a Recipient, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless the Applicable Agent against any amount that a Lender or Issuing Bank fails for any reason to pay indefeasibly to such Agent as required pursuant to this Section.  Each Borrower shall make payment within ten (10) days after demand for any amount or liability payable under this Section.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrowers by a Lender or Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Applicable Agent), or by the Applicable Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of any Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(b)Each Lender and Issuing Bank shall indemnify and hold harmless, on a several basis, (i) the Applicable Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender or Issuing Bank (but only to the extent Borrowers have not already paid or reimbursed such Agent therefor and without limiting Borrowers’ obligation to do so), (ii) Agents and Obligors, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to maintain a Participant register as required hereunder, and (iii) Agents and Obligors, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender or Issuing Bank, in each case, that are payable or paid by an Agent or an Obligor in connection with any Obligations, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  Each Lender and Issuing Bank shall make payment within ten (10) days after demand for any amount or liability payable under this Section.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender or Issuing Bank by the Applicable Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

5.9.4.Evidence of Payments.  If an Agent or an Obligor pays any Taxes pursuant to this Section, then upon request, such Agent shall deliver to Borrower Agent or Borrower Agent shall deliver to such Agent, as applicable, a copy of a receipt issued by the appropriate Governmental Authority evidencing the payment, a copy of any return required by Applicable Law to report the payment, or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to such Agent or Borrower Agent, as applicable.

5.9.5.Treatment of Certain Refunds.  Unless required by Applicable Law, at no time shall any Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender or Issuing Bank, nor have any obligation to pay to any Lender or Issuing Bank, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of a Lender or Issuing Bank.  If a Recipient determines in its discretion that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrowers or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay Borrowers an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrowers with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that

58

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

Borrowers agree, upon request by the Recipient, to repay the amount paid over to Borrowers (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient if the Recipient is required to repay such refund to the Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Recipient shall be required to pay any amount to Borrowers if such payment would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than it would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  In no event shall any Agent or any Recipient be required to make its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) available to any Obligor or other Person.

5.9.6.Survival.  Each party’s obligations under Sections 5.9 and 5.10 shall survive the resignation or replacement of any Agent or any assignment of rights by or replacement of a Lender or Issuing Bank, the termination of the U.S. Revolver Commitments, the Canadian Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction, discharge or Full Payment of any Obligations.

5.10.Lender Tax Information.

5.10.1.Status of Lenders.  Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments of Obligations shall deliver to Borrowers and the Applicable Agent properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrowers or such Agent as will permit such payments to be made without or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrowers or the Applicable Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by Borrowers or such Agent to enable them to determine whether such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, such documentation (other than documentation described in Sections 5.10.2(a), (b) and (d)) shall not be required if a Lender reasonably believes delivery of the documentation would subject it to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice its legal or commercial position.

5.10.2.Documentation.  Without limiting the foregoing, if any Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(a)Any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrowers and the Applicable Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request of Borrowers or such Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9, certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax;

(b)Any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrowers and the Applicable 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 hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request of Borrowers or such Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from or reduction of U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty, and (y) with respect to other payments under the Loan Documents, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from or reduction of U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

59

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

(ii)executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(iii)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 in form satisfactory to the Applicable Agent to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of a Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (“U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”), and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

(iv)to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate in form satisfactory to the Applicable Agent, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(c)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrowers and the Applicable 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 hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrowers or such Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit Borrowers or such Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(d)if payment of an Obligation to a Lender would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code), such Lender shall deliver to Borrowers and the Applicable Agent at the time(s) prescribed by law and otherwise as reasonably requested by Borrowers or such Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrowers or such Agent as may be necessary for them to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (d), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date hereof.

5.10.3.Redelivery of Documentation.  If any form or certification previously delivered by a Lender pursuant to this Section expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, such Lender shall promptly update the form or certification or notify Borrowers and the Applicable Agent in writing of its inability to do so.

5.11.Nature and Extent of Each Borrower’s Liability.

5.11.1.Joint and Several Liability.  Each U.S. Borrower agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Agents and Secured Parties the prompt payment and performance of, all Obligations, except its Excluded Swap Obligations, and all agreements under the Loan Documents.  Each U.S. Borrower agrees that its guaranty obligations

60

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

hereunder constitute a continuing guaranty of payment and not of collection, that such obligations shall not be discharged until Full Payment of the Obligations, and that such obligations are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of (a) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability, subordination or any future modification of, or change in, any Obligations or Loan Document, or any other document, instrument or agreement to which any Obligor is or may become a party or be bound; (b) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section) or any other Loan Document, or any waiver, consent or indulgence of any kind by any Agent or any Secured Party with respect thereto; (c) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect a Lien or to preserve rights against, any security or guaranty for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by any Agent or any Secured Party in respect thereof (including the release of any security or guaranty); (d) the insolvency of any Obligor; (e) any election by any Agent or any Secured Party in an Insolvency Proceeding for the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; (f) any borrowing or grant of a Lien by any other Borrower, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; (g) the disallowance of any claims of any Agent or any Secured Party against any Obligor for the repayment of any Obligations under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; or (h) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, except Full Payment of all Obligations.

5.11.2.Waivers.

(a)Each U.S. Borrower expressly waives all rights that it may have now or in the future under any statute, at common law, in equity or otherwise, to compel Agents or Secured Parties to marshal assets or to proceed against any Obligor, other Person or security for the payment or performance of any Obligations before, or as a condition to, proceeding against such Borrower.  Each U.S. Borrower waives all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor other than Full Payment of all Obligations and waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right to revoke any guaranty of any Obligations as long as it is a Borrower.  It is agreed among each U.S. Borrower, Agents and Secured Parties that the provisions of this Section 5.11 are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents and that, but for such provisions, Agents and Secured Parties would decline to make Loans and issue Letters of Credit.  Each U.S. Borrower acknowledges that its guaranty pursuant to this Section is necessary to the conduct and promotion of its business, and can be expected to benefit such business.

(b)Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agents and Secured Parties may, in their discretion, pursue such rights and remedies as they deem appropriate, including realization upon Collateral by judicial foreclosure or non-judicial sale or enforcement, without affecting any rights and remedies under this Section 5.11.  If, in taking any action in connection with the exercise of any rights or remedies, any Agent or any Secured Party shall forfeit any other rights or remedies, including the right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Borrower or other Person, whether because of any Applicable Laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or otherwise, each U.S. Borrower consents to such action and waives any claim based upon it, even if the action may result in loss of any rights of subrogation that any Borrower might otherwise have had.  Any election of remedies that results in denial or impairment of the right of any Agent or any Secured Party to seek a deficiency judgment against any Borrower shall not impair any U.S. Borrower’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations.  Each U.S. Borrower waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to any security for the Obligations, even though that election of remedies destroys such Borrower’s rights of subrogation against any other Person.  The Applicable Agent may bid all or a portion of the Obligations at any foreclosure, trustee’s or other sale, including any private sale, and the amount of such bid need not be paid by such Agent but shall be credited against the Obligations.  The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether any Agent or any other Person is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the

61

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

Collateral, and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Section 5.11, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which any Agent or any Secured Party might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

5.11.3.Extent of Liability; Contribution.

(a)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each U.S. Borrower’s liability under this Section 5.11 shall be limited to the greater of (i) all amounts for which such U.S. Borrower is primarily liable, as described below, and (ii) such U.S. Borrower’s Allocable Amount.

(b)If any U.S. Borrower makes a payment under this Section 5.11 of any Obligations (other than amounts for which such Borrower is primarily liable) (a “Guarantor Payment”) that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments previously or concurrently made by any other U.S. Borrower, exceeds the amount that such Borrower would otherwise have paid if each U.S. Borrower had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payments in the same proportion that such Borrower’s Allocable Amount bore to the total Allocable Amounts of all Borrowers, then such Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and to be reimbursed by, each other U.S. Borrower for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment.  The “Allocable Amount” for any U.S. Borrower shall be the maximum amount that could then be recovered from such Borrower under this Section 5.11 without rendering such payment voidable under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state fraudulent transfer or conveyance act, or similar statute or common law.

(c)Section 5.11.3(a) shall not limit the liability of any Borrower to pay or guarantee Loans made directly or indirectly to it (including Loans advanced hereunder to any other Person and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Borrower), LC Obligations relating to Letters of Credit issued to support its business, Secured Bank Product Obligations incurred to support its business, and all accrued interest, fees, expenses and other related Obligations with respect thereto, for which such Borrower shall be primarily liable for all purposes hereunder.  Agents and Secured Parties shall have the right, at any time in their discretion, to condition Loans and Letters of Credit upon a separate calculation of borrowing availability for each Borrower and to restrict the disbursement and use of Loans and Letters of Credit to a Borrower based on that calculation.

(d)Each Obligor that is a Qualified ECP when its guaranty of or grant of Lien as security for a Swap Obligation becomes effective hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide funds or other support to each Specified Obligor with respect to such Swap Obligation as may be needed by such Specified Obligor from time to time to honor all of its obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of such Swap Obligation (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering such Qualified ECP’s obligations and undertakings under this Section 5.11 voidable under any applicable fraudulent transfer or conveyance act).  The obligations and undertakings of each Qualified ECP under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until Full Payment of all Obligations.  Each Obligor intends this Section to constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a guarantee of the obligations of, and a “keepwell, support or other agreement” for the benefit of, each Obligor for all purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act.

5.11.4.Joint Enterprise.  Each Borrower has requested that Agents and Secured Parties make this credit facility available to Borrowers on a combined basis in order to finance Borrowers’ business most efficiently and economically.  Borrowers’ business is a mutual and collective

62

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

enterprise, and the successful operation of each Borrower is dependent upon the successful performance of the integrated group.  Borrowers believe that consolidation of their credit facility will enhance the borrowing power of each Borrower and ease administration of the facility, all to their mutual advantage.  Borrowers acknowledge that Agents’ and Secured Parties’ willingness to extend credit and to administer the Collateral of Borrowers on a combined basis hereunder is done solely as an accommodation to Borrowers and at Borrowers’ request.

5.11.5.Subordination.  Each Borrower (including Canadian Borrower) hereby subordinates any claims, including any rights at law or in equity to payment, subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or setoff, that it may have at any time against any other Obligor, howsoever arising, to the Full Payment of all Obligations.

Each request (or deemed request) by Borrowers for funding of a Loan, issuance of a Letter of Credit or grant of an accommodation shall constitute a representation by Borrowers that the foregoing conditions are satisfied on the date of such request and on the date of such funding, issuance or grant.  As an additional condition to any funding, issuance or grant, the Applicable Agent shall have received such other information, documents, instruments and agreements as it deems appropriate in connection therewith.

7.2.Lien on Deposit Accounts; Cash Collateral.

7.2.1.Deposit Accounts.  To further secure the prompt payment and performance of all Obligations, each U.S. Borrower hereby grants to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Secured Parties, a continuing security interest in and Lien upon all amounts credited to any Deposit Account of such U.S. Borrower that constitutes Collateral, including any sums in any blocked or lockbox accounts or in any accounts into which such sums are swept.  Each U.S. Borrower hereby authorizes and directs each bank or other depository to deliver to Administrative Agent, upon request while a Trigger Event is in effect, all balances in any Deposit Account maintained by such U.S. Borrower that constitutes Collateral, without inquiry into the authority or right of Administrative Agent to make such request.

7.2.2.Cash Collateral.  Any Cash Collateral may be invested, at Administrative Agent’s discretion (and with the consent of U.S. Borrowers, as long as no Event of Default exists), but Administrative Agent shall have no duty to do so, regardless of any agreement or course of dealing with any U.S. Borrower, and shall have no responsibility for any investment or loss.  Each U.S. Borrower hereby grants to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Secured Parties and as security for the Obligations, a security interest in all Cash Collateral held from time to time and all proceeds thereof, whether held in a Cash Collateral Account or otherwise.  Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral to the payment of Obligations as they become due, in such order as Administrative Agent may elect.  Each Cash Collateral Account and all Cash Collateral shall be under the sole dominion and control of Administrative Agent, and no Borrower or other Person shall have any right to any Cash Collateral, until Full Payment of all Obligations.

7.3.[Intentionally Omitted.]

7.4.Other Collateral.

7.4.1.Commercial Tort Claims.  U.S. Borrowers shall promptly notify Administrative Agent in writing if any U.S. Borrower has a Commercial Tort Claim that constitutes Collateral (other than, as long as no Default or Event of Default exists, a Commercial Tort Claim for less than U.S.$1,000,000), shall promptly supplement Schedule 9.1.16 to include such claim, and shall take such actions as Administrative Agent deems appropriate to subject such claim to a duly perfected, first priority Lien in favor of Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Secured Parties).

7.4.2.Certain After-Acquired Collateral.  U.S. Borrowers shall promptly notify Administrative Agent in writing if, after the Closing Date, any U.S. Borrower obtains any interest in any Collateral consisting of Deposit Accounts, Chattel Paper, Documents, Instruments, Investment Property or Letter-of-Credit Rights and, upon Administrative Agent’s request, shall promptly take such actions as Administrative Agent deems appropriate to effect Administrative Agent’s duly perfected, first priority Lien upon such Collateral, including obtaining any appropriate possession, control agreement or Lien Waiver.  If any Collateral is in the possession of a third party, at Administrative Agent’s request, U.S. Borrowers shall obtain an acknowledgment that such third party holds the Collateral for the benefit of Administrative Agent.

7.5.Limitations.  The Lien on Collateral granted hereunder is given as security only and shall not subject any Agent or any Lender to, or in any way modify, any obligation or liability of Borrowers relating to any Collateral.  In no event shall the grant of any Lien under any Loan Document secure an Excluded Swap Obligation of the granting Obligor.

7.6.Further Assurances.  Promptly upon request, U.S. Borrowers shall deliver such instruments, assignments, or other documents or agreements, and shall take such actions, as Administrative Agent deems appropriate under Applicable Law to evidence or perfect its Lien on any Collateral, or otherwise to give effect to the intent of this Agreement.  Each U.S. Borrower authorizes Administrative Agent to file any financing statement and agrees that any such financing statements may describe the Collateral as being of an equal or lesser scope, or with greater or lesser detail, than as set forth in Section 7.1.

8.2.3.Account Verification.  Regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default exists, Administrative Agent shall have the right at any time, in the name of Administrative Agent, any designee of Administrative Agent or any Obligor, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Accounts of Obligors by mail, telephone or otherwise.  Borrowers shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to, cooperate fully with Administrative Agent in an effort to facilitate and promptly conclude any such verification process.

8.2.5.Proceeds of Collateral.  Borrowers shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to, request in writing and otherwise take all necessary steps to ensure that all payments on Accounts or otherwise relating to Collateral are made directly to a Dominion Account (or a lockbox relating to a Dominion Account) or a Deposit Account that is subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement.  If any Borrower or Subsidiary receives cash or Payment Items with respect to any Collateral, it shall hold same in trust for the Applicable Agent and promptly (not later than the next Business Day) deposit same into a Dominion Account or a Deposit Account that is subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement.

8.3.2.Returns of Inventory.  No Borrower or Obligor shall return any Inventory to a supplier, vendor or other Person, whether for cash, credit or otherwise, unless (a) such return is in the Ordinary Course of Business; (b) no Default, Event of Default, U.S. Revolver Overadvance or Canadian Overadvance exists or would result therefrom; (c) Administrative Agent is promptly notified if the aggregate Value of all Inventory (i) returned to a supplier, vendor or other Person in any Fiscal Period exceeds U.S.$1,000,000 in the aggregate or (ii) returned to all suppliers, vendors and other Persons in any Fiscal Period exceeds U.S.$4,000,000 in the aggregate; and (d) while a Trigger Event is in effect, any payment received by an Obligor for a return is promptly remitted to the Applicable Agent for application to the applicable Obligations.

8.3.3.Acquisition, Sale and Maintenance.  No Borrower shall, and each Borrower shall cause each other Obligor not to, acquire or accept any Inventory on consignment or approval, and shall take all steps to assure that all Inventory is produced in accordance with Applicable Law in all material respects, including the FLSA.  No Borrower shall, and each Borrower shall cause each other Obligor not to, sell any Inventory on consignment or approval or any other basis under which the customer may return or require a Borrower or other Obligor to repurchase such Inventory.  Borrowers shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to, use, store and maintain all Inventory with reasonable care and caution, in accordance with applicable standards of any insurance and in conformity with all Applicable Law, and shall make current rent payments (within applicable grace periods provided for in leases) at all locations where any Collateral is located.

8.4.[Intentionally Omitted.]

8.5.Cash Management; Administration of Deposit Accounts.  Each Borrower shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to, cause Bank of America to be such Borrower’s or Obligor’s principal U.S. depository bank and Royal Bank of Canada or Bank of America-Canada Branch to be the principal Canadian depository bank, including for the maintenance of operating accounts and Deposit Accounts, lockbox administration, funds transfer, information reporting services and other treasury management services.  All Deposit Accounts maintained by Obligors, including all Dominion Accounts, are set forth on the Perfection Certificates.  Each Borrower shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to, take all actions necessary to establish the Applicable Agent’s control of each such Deposit Account (other than (a) an account exclusively used for payroll, payroll taxes or employee benefits, (b) an account containing not more than U.S.$250,000 at any time, (c) a zero balance account or (d) that certain account held by the Canadian Borrower at Desjardin Bank as further described on the Perfection Certificate for the Canadian Borrower; provided that such account contains not more than CD$1,000,000 at any time and the funds in such account are swept at least weekly to a Deposit Account held by the Canadian Borrower that is subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement) by causing, to the extent necessary, each institution maintaining any such Deposit Account for an Obligor to enter into a Deposit Account Control Agreement.  Each Borrower shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to, be the sole account holder of each Deposit Account of such Obligor and shall not allow any other Person (other than the Applicable Agent) to have control over a Deposit Account or any Property deposited therein.  Each Borrower shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to, promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any opening or closing of a Deposit Account and, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, will amend the applicable Perfection Certificate to reflect same.

8.6.General Provisions.

8.6.1.Location of Collateral.  All tangible items of Collateral, other than Inventory in transit, shall at all times be kept by Borrowers at the business locations set forth in Schedule 8.6.1, except that Borrowers may (a) make sales or other dispositions of Collateral in accordance with Section 10.2.6; (b) store Collateral with an aggregate value not to exceed $100,000 at any temporary location for a period not to exceed 90 days for purposes of conducting, in the Ordinary Course of Business, discount sales with respect to such Collateral; provided that the aggregate value of all Collateral located at all such temporary locations, together with (i) the aggregate value of all Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) located at temporary locations in accordance with Section 3.1.1 of the Security Agreement and (ii) the aggregate value of all Collateral (as defined in the Canadian Security Agreement) located at temporary locations in accordance with Section 3.1.1 of the Canadian Security Agreement, shall not exceed $400,000 at any time; and (c) move Collateral to another location in the United States or Canada, upon 30 Business Days’ prior written notice to Administrative Agent.

8.6.2.Insurance of Collateral; Condemnation Proceeds.

(a)Each Borrower shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to, maintain insurance with respect to the Collateral, covering casualty, hazard, theft, malicious mischief, flood and other risks, in amounts, with endorsements and with insurers (with a Best rating of at least A+, unless otherwise approved by Administrative Agent in its discretion) satisfactory to Administrative Agent.  All proceeds with respect to Collateral under each policy shall be payable to the Applicable Agent.  From time to time upon request, Borrowers shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to, deliver to Administrative Agent the originals or certified copies of its insurance policies and updated flood plain searches.  Unless the Applicable Agent shall agree otherwise, each policy shall include satisfactory endorsements (i) showing the Applicable Agent as loss payee; (ii) requiring 30 days’ prior written notice to the Applicable Agent in the event of cancellation of the policy for any reason whatsoever; and (iii) specifying that the interest of Applicable Agent shall not be impaired or invalidated by any act or neglect of any Obligor or the owner of the Property, nor by the occupation of the premises for purposes more hazardous than are permitted by the policy.  If any Obligor fails to provide and pay for any insurance, each Agent may, at its option, but shall not be required to, procure the insurance and charge Borrowers therefor.  Each Borrower agrees to deliver, and shall cause each other Obligor to deliver, to Applicable Agent, promptly as rendered, copies of all reports made to insurance companies.  While no Event of Default exists, Obligors may settle, adjust or compromise any insurance claim, as long as the proceeds of any insurance with respect to Collateral are delivered to Applicable Agent.  If an Event of Default exists, only Agents shall be authorized to settle, adjust and compromise such claims.

(b)Any proceeds of insurance with respect to Collateral and any awards arising from condemnation of any Collateral shall be paid to Applicable Agent.  Any such proceeds or awards that relate to Inventory shall be applied to payment of the U.S. Revolver Loans (to the extent such Inventory is owned by the U.S. Borrowers) or the Canadian Loans (to the extent such Inventory is owned by the Canadian Borrower), and then to any other Obligations outstanding.

8.6.3.Protection of Collateral.  All expenses of protecting, storing, warehousing, insuring, handling, maintaining and shipping any Collateral, all Taxes payable with respect to any Collateral (including any sale thereof), and all other payments required to be made by any Agent to any Person to realize upon any Collateral, shall be borne and paid by Borrowers.  No Agent shall be liable or responsible in any way for the safekeeping of any Collateral, for any loss or damage thereto (except for reasonable care in its custody while Collateral is in such Agent’s actual possession), for any diminution in the value thereof, or for any act or default of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency or other Person whatsoever, but the same shall be at Borrowers’ sole risk.

8.6.4.Defense of Title to Collateral.  Each Borrower shall at all times defend its title to Collateral and each Agent’s Liens therein against all Persons, claims and demands whatsoever, except Permitted Liens.

8.7.Power of Attorney.  Each Borrower hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints each Agent (and all Persons designated by any Agent) as such Borrower’s true and lawful attorney (and agent-in-fact) for the purposes provided in this Section.  Each Agent, or each Agent’s designees, may, without notice and in either its or a Borrower’s name, but at the cost and expense of Borrowers:

(a)Endorse a Borrower’s name on any Payment Item or other proceeds of Collateral (including proceeds of insurance) that come into such Agent’s possession or control; and

SECTION 9.REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

9.1.General Representations and Warranties.  To induce Agents and Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make available the U.S. Revolver Commitments, Canadian Commitments, Loans and Letters of Credit, Borrowers represent and warrant that:

9.1.1.Organization and Qualification.  Each Borrower and Subsidiary is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization.  Each Borrower and Subsidiary is duly qualified, authorized to do business and in good standing as a foreign corporation, partnership or limited liability company, as applicable, in each jurisdiction where failure to be so qualified could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.1.2.Power and Authority.  Each Obligor is duly authorized to execute, deliver and perform its Loan Documents.  The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary action, and do not (a) require any consent or approval of any holders of Equity Interests of any Obligor, other than those already obtained; (b) contravene the Organic Documents of any Obligor; (c) violate or cause a default under any Applicable Law or Material Contract; or (d) result in or require the imposition of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any Property of any Obligor.

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

9.1.3.Enforceability.  Each Loan Document is a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Obligor party thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity.

9.1.4.Capital Structure.  Schedule 9.1.4 shows, as of the Closing Date, for each Borrower and Subsidiary, its name, its jurisdiction of organization, its authorized and issued Equity Interests, the holders of its Equity Interests (other than with respect to UNFI), and all agreements binding on such holders with respect to their Equity Interests.  Except as disclosed on Schedule 9.1.4, in the five years preceding the Closing Date, no Borrower or Subsidiary has acquired all or substantially all of the assets of any other Person nor been the surviving entity in a merger, amalgamation or combination.  Each Borrower has good title to its Equity Interests in its Subsidiaries, and all such Equity Interests are duly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.  There are no outstanding purchase options, warrants, subscription rights, agreements to issue or sell, convertible interests, phantom rights or powers of attorney relating to Equity Interests of any Borrower (other than UNFI) or any Subsidiary.

9.1.5.Title to Properties; Priority of Liens.  Each Borrower and Subsidiary has good and marketable title to (or valid leasehold interests in) all of its Real Estate, and good title to all of its material personal Property, including all Property reflected in any financial statements delivered to Administrative Agent or Lenders, in each case free of Liens except Permitted Liens.  Each Borrower and Subsidiary has paid and discharged all lawful claims that, if unpaid, could become a Lien on its Properties, other than Permitted Liens.  All Liens of the Applicable Agent in the Collateral are duly perfected, first priority Liens, subject only to Permitted Liens that are expressly allowed to have priority over the Applicable Agent’s Liens.

9.1.6.Accounts.  Administrative Agent may rely, in determining which Accounts are Eligible Accounts, on all statements and representations made by Borrowers with respect thereto.  Borrowers warrant, with respect to each Account at the time it is shown as an Eligible Account in a Borrowing Base Certificate, that:

(a)it is genuine and in all respects what it purports to be, and is not evidenced by a judgment;

(b)it arises out of a completed, bona fide sale and delivery of goods or rendition of services in the Ordinary Course of Business, and substantially in accordance with any purchase order, contract or other document relating thereto;

(c)it is for a sum certain, maturing as stated in the invoice covering such sale or rendition of services, a copy of which has been furnished or is available to Administrative Agent on request;

(d)it is not subject to any offset, Lien (other than Applicable Agent’s Lien), deduction, defense, dispute, counterclaim or other adverse condition except as arising in the Ordinary Course of Business and disclosed to Administrative Agent; and it is absolutely owing by the Account Debtor, without contingency in any respect;

(e)no purchase order, agreement, document or Applicable Law restricts assignment of the Account to any Agent (regardless of whether, under the UCC or PPSA, as applicable, the restriction is ineffective), and the applicable Borrower is the sole payee or remittance party shown on the invoice;

72

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

(f)no extension, compromise, settlement, modification, credit, deduction or return has been authorized with respect to the Account, except discounts or allowances granted in the Ordinary Course of Business for prompt payment that are reflected on the face of the invoice related thereto and in the reports submitted to Administrative Agent hereunder; and

(g)to the best of Borrowers’ knowledge, (i) there are no facts or circumstances that are reasonably likely to impair the enforceability or collectibility of such Account; (ii) the Account Debtor had the capacity to contract when the Account arose, continues to meet the applicable Borrower’s customary credit standards, is Solvent, is not contemplating or subject to an Insolvency Proceeding, and has not failed, or suspended or ceased doing business; and (iii) there are no proceedings or actions threatened or pending against any Account Debtor that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Account Debtor’s financial condition.

9.1.7.Financial Statements.  The consolidated balance sheets, and related statements of income, cash flow and shareholder’s equity, of Borrowers and Subsidiaries that have been and are hereafter delivered to Administrative Agent and Lenders, are prepared in accordance with GAAP, and at the time of delivery fairly present the financial positions and results of operations of Borrowers and Subsidiaries at the dates and for the periods indicated (in the case of interim statements, subject to year-end adjustments and the absence of footnotes).  All projections delivered from time to time to Administrative Agent and Lenders have been prepared in good faith, based on assumptions believed by the management of Borrowers to be reasonable in light of the circumstances at the time of preparation.  Since August 1, 2015, there has been no change in the condition, financial or otherwise, of any Borrower or Subsidiary that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No financial statement at any time delivered to Administrative Agent or Lenders contains any untrue statement of a material fact, nor fails to disclose any material fact necessary to make such statement not materially misleading, in light of the circumstances under which they were made.  The Borrowers and the other Obligors are Solvent.

9.1.8.Surety Obligations.  No Borrower or Subsidiary is obligated as surety or indemnitor under any bond or other contract that assures payment or performance of any obligation of any other Person, except as permitted hereunder.

9.1.9.Taxes.  Each Borrower and Subsidiary has (a) filed all federal, state, provincial and local tax returns and other reports that it is required by law to file, except for any tax returns and reports relating to taxes (i) the amount of which, individually or in the aggregate, is not material or (ii) the amount, applicability or validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which such Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, has established adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP, and (b) paid, or made provision for the payment of, all Taxes upon it, its income and its Properties that are due and payable, except to the extent being Properly Contested.  The provision for Taxes on the books of each Borrower and Subsidiary is adequate for all years not closed by applicable statutes, and for its current Fiscal Year.

9.1.10.Brokers.  There are no brokerage commissions, finder’s fees or investment banking fees payable in connection with any transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.

9.1.11.Intellectual Property.  Each Borrower and Subsidiary owns or has the lawful right to use all Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business, without conflict with any rights of others that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  There is no pending or, to any Borrower’s knowledge, threatened Intellectual Property Claim with respect to any Borrower, any Subsidiary or any of their Property (including any Intellectual Property) that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Except as disclosed on Schedule 9.1.11, no Borrower or

73

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

Subsidiary pays or owes any Royalty or other compensation to any Person with respect to any Intellectual Property, other than de minimis amounts.  All Intellectual Property owned by any Borrower or Subsidiary on the Closing Date is shown on Schedule 9.1.11.

9.1.12.Governmental Approvals.  Each Borrower and Subsidiary has, is in compliance with, and is in good standing with respect to, all applicable Governmental Approvals necessary to conduct its business and to own, lease and operate its Properties, except where noncompliance or the failure to be in good standing could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  All necessary import, export or other licenses, permits or certificates for the import or handling of any goods or other Collateral have been procured and are in effect, and Borrowers and Subsidiaries have complied with all foreign and domestic laws with respect to the shipment and importation of any goods or Collateral, except where noncompliance could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.1.13.Compliance with Laws.  Each Borrower and Subsidiary has duly complied, and its Properties and business operations are in compliance, in all material respects with all Applicable Law, except where noncompliance could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  There have been no citations, notices or orders of noncompliance issued to any Borrower or Subsidiary under any Applicable Law, except where such noncompliance could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No Inventory has been produced in violation of the FLSA.

9.1.14.Compliance with Environmental Laws.  Except as disclosed on Schedule 9.1.14, no Borrower’s or Subsidiary’s past or present operations, Real Estate or other Properties are subject to any pending (or, to the knowledge of any Borrower or Subsidiary, threatened) federal, state, provincial, territorial or local investigation to determine whether any remedial action is needed to address any environmental pollution, hazardous material or environmental clean-up.  No Borrower or Subsidiary has received any Environmental Notice.  No Borrower or Subsidiary has any contingent liability with respect to any Environmental Release, environmental pollution or hazardous material on any Real Estate now or previously owned, leased or operated by it, if the same could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.1.15.Burdensome Contracts.  No Borrower or Subsidiary is a party or subject to any contract, agreement or charter restriction that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No Borrower or Subsidiary is party or subject to any Restrictive Agreement, except as shown on Schedule 9.1.15.  No such Restrictive Agreement prohibits the execution, delivery or performance of any Loan Document by an Obligor.

9.1.16.Litigation.  Except as shown on Schedule 9.1.16, there are no proceedings or investigations pending or, to any Borrower’s knowledge, threatened against any Borrower or Subsidiary, or any of their businesses, operations, Properties or condition (financial or otherwise), that (a) relate to any Loan Documents or transactions contemplated thereby; or (b) could reasonably be expected to be determined adversely to such Borrower or Subsidiary, and if so determined, to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Except as shown on such Schedule or otherwise disclosed to the Administrative Agent in writing, no Obligor has a Commercial Tort Claim (other than, as long as no Default or Event of Default exists, a Commercial Tort Claim for less than U.S.$1,000,000).  No Borrower or Subsidiary is in default with respect to any order, injunction or judgment of any Governmental Authority.

9.1.17.No Defaults.  No event or circumstance has occurred or exists that constitutes a Default or Event of Default.  No Borrower or Subsidiary is in default, and no event or circumstance has occurred or exists that with the passage of time or giving of notice would constitute a default, under any Material Contract if such default could reasonably be expected to result in a termination of such Material

74

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

Contract prior to the time that it otherwise would terminate in the absence of such default.  There is no basis upon which any party (other than a Borrower or Subsidiary) could terminate a Material Contract prior to its scheduled termination date.

9.1.18.ERISA; Canadian Plans.  Except as disclosed on Schedule 9.1.18:

(a)No Obligor has any Plan.  Each Plan is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code, and other federal and state laws except to the extent any such noncompliance could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Each Plan that is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter from the IRS or an application for such a letter is currently being processed by the IRS with respect thereto and, to the knowledge of Borrowers, nothing has occurred which would prevent, or cause the loss of, such qualification, in each case except to the extent the failure to obtain such determination letter, make application therefor or retain such qualification could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Each Obligor and ERISA Affiliate has in all material respects met all applicable requirements under the Code, ERISA and the Pension Protection Act of 2006, and no application for a waiver of the minimum funding standards or an extension of any amortization period has been made with respect to any Plan, except to the extent such events or circumstances could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c)(i) No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur; (ii) no Pension Plan has any Unfunded Pension Liability; (iii) no Obligor or ERISA Affiliate has incurred, or reasonably expects to incur, any material liability under Title IV of ERISA with respect to any Pension Plan (other than premiums due and not delinquent under Section 4007 of ERISA); (iv) no Obligor or ERISA Affiliate has incurred, or reasonably expects to incur, any material liability (and no event has occurred which, with the giving of notice under Section 4219 of ERISA, would result in such liability) under Section 4201 or 4243 of ERISA with respect to a Multiemployer Plan; (v) no Obligor or ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a transaction that could be subject to Section 4069 or 4212(c) of ERISA; and (vi) as of the most recent valuation date for any Pension Plan, the funding target attainment percentage (as defined in Section 430(d)(2) of the Code) is at least 60%, and no Obligor or ERISA Affiliate knows of any fact or circumstance that could reasonably be expected to cause the funding target attainment percentage for any such plan to drop below 60% as of such date, except to the extent such events or circumstances could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d)Each Canadian Plan, other than a Canadian MEPP (and, to the knowledge of the Canadian Borrower and its Subsidiaries, each Canadian Plan that is a Canadian MEPP) is administered in compliance in all material respects with Applicable Laws.  Each Canadian Plan, other than a Canadian MEPP (and, to the knowledge of the Canadian Borrower and its Subsidiaries, each Canadian Plan that is a Canadian MEPP) that is intended to qualify for tax-preferred status is, to the extent applicable, duly registered under applicable pension standards laws and the Income Tax Act (Canada), or is otherwise administered in such a manner as to qualify for such tax-preferred status, and in all cases, to the knowledge of the Canadian Borrower and its Subsidiaries, nothing has occurred which would prevent, or cause the loss of, such qualification.  The Canadian Borrower and its Subsidiaries have made all required contributions to each Canadian Plan, and no application for, or adoption of, solvency funding relief

Documents (other than any Canadian Security Documents), Applicable Law or otherwise.  Administrative Agent alone shall be authorized to determine whether any Account or Inventory constitutes an Eligible Account or Eligible Inventory, whether to impose or release any reserve, or whether any conditions to funding or to issuance of a Letter of Credit for the account or benefit of any U.S. Borrower have been satisfied, which determinations and judgments, if exercised in good faith, shall exonerate Administrative Agent from liability to any Secured Party or other Person for any error in judgment.

(b)Appointment and Authority of Canadian Agent.  Each Secured Party also appoints and designates Bank of America-Canada Branch as Canadian Agent under all Loan Documents.  Canadian Agent may, and each Secured Party authorizes Canadian Agent to, enter into all Loan Documents to which Canadian Agent is intended to be a party and accept all applicable Security Documents, for the benefit of Secured Parties.  Any action taken by Canadian Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, and the exercise by Canadian Agent of any rights or remedies set forth therein, together with all other powers reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized by and binding upon all Secured Parties.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Canadian Agent shall have the sole and exclusive authority to (i) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for Canadian Lenders with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection with the Loan Documents in respect of the Canadian Borrower; (ii) execute and deliver as Canadian Agent each Loan Document, including any intercreditor or subordination agreement, and accept delivery of each Loan Document; (iii) act as collateral agent for Secured Parties for purposes of perfecting and administering Liens under the Loan Documents granted by the Canadian Borrower or any Canadian Subsidiary that is a Foreign Subsidiary, and for all other purposes stated therein; (iv) manage, supervise or otherwise deal with Collateral consisting of assets of the Canadian Borrower or any Canadian Subsidiary that is a Foreign Subsidiary; and (v) take any Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral consisting of assets of the Canadian Borrower or any Canadian Subsidiary that is a Foreign Subsidiary or under any Canadian Security Document, Applicable Law or otherwise.  Canadian Agent alone shall be authorized to determine whether any conditions to funding or to issuance of a Letter of Credit for the account or benefit of the Canadian Borrower have been satisfied, which determinations and judgments, if exercised in good faith, shall exonerate Canadian Agent from liability to any Secured Party or other Person for any error in judgment.

12.1.2.Duties.  The titles of “Agent,” “Administrative Agent” and “Canadian Agent” are used solely as a matter of market custom and the duties of each Agent are administrative in nature only.  No Agent has any duties except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, and in no event does any Agent have any agency, fiduciary or implied duty to or relationship with any Secured Party or other Person by reason of any Loan Document or related transaction.  The conferral upon any Agent of any right shall not imply a duty to exercise such right, unless instructed to do so by Lenders in accordance with this Agreement.

12.1.3.Agent Professionals.  Agents may perform their duties through agents and employees.  Agents may consult with and employ Agent Professionals, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by an Agent Professional.  No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents, employees or Agent Professionals selected by it with reasonable care.

12.1.4.Instructions of Required Lenders.  The rights and remedies conferred upon any Agent under the Loan Documents may be exercised without the necessity of joinder of any other party, unless required by Applicable Law.  In determining compliance with a condition for any action hereunder, including satisfaction of any condition in Section 6, the Applicable Agent may presume that the condition is satisfactory to a Secured Party unless such Agent has received notice to the contrary from such Secured Party before such Agent takes the action. The Applicable Agent may request instructions

91

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

from Required Lenders or other Secured Parties (or such other number of Lenders as may be required) with respect to any act (including the failure to act) in connection with any Loan Documents or Collateral, and may seek assurances to its satisfaction from Secured Parties of their indemnification obligations against Claims that could be incurred by such Agent.  Each Agent may refrain from any act until it has received such instructions or assurances, and shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.  Instructions of Required Lenders (or such other number of Lenders as may be required) shall be binding upon all Secured Parties, and no Secured Party shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such Agent acting or refraining from acting pursuant to instructions of Required Lenders.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, instructions by and consent of specific parties shall be required to the extent provided in Section 14.1.1.  In no event shall any Agent be required to take any action that it determines in its discretion is contrary to Applicable Law or any Loan Documents or could subject any Agent Indemnitee to liability.

12.1.5.Québec Collateral.

(a)For greater certainty, and without limiting the powers of the Canadian Agent or any other Person acting as mandatary (agent) of the Canadian Agent, each of the Secured Parties hereby irrevocably constitutes the Canadian Agent as the holder of an irrevocable power of attorney (fondé de pouvoir within the meaning of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec) in order to hold hypothecs and security granted by any Obligor on property pursuant to the laws of the Province of Québec in order to secure obligations of any Obligor under any bond, debenture or similar title of indebtedness, issued by any Obligor, and hereby agrees that the Canadian Agent, may act as the bondholder and mandatary (i.e. agent) with respect to any shares, capital stock or other securities or any bond, debenture or similar title of indebtedness that may be issued by any Obligor and pledged in favor of the Canadian Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties. The execution by the Canadian Agent, acting as fondé de pouvoir and mandatary, prior to the Closing Date, of any deeds of hypothec or other security documents is hereby ratified and confirmed.

(b)Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 32 of An Act respecting the special powers of legal persons (Québec), the Canadian Agent may acquire and be the holder of any bond or debenture issued by any Obligor (i.e. the fondé de pouvoir may acquire and hold the first bond issued under any deed of hypothec by any Obligor).

(c)The constitution of the Canadian Agent as fondé de pouvoir and as bondholder and mandatary with respect to any bond, debenture, shares, capital stock or other securities that may be issued and pledged from time to time to the Canadian Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall be deemed to have been ratified and confirmed by each Person accepting an assignment of, a participation in or an arrangement in respect of, all or any portion of any Secured Parties’ rights and obligations under this Agreement by the execution of an assignment, including an assignment or other agreement pursuant to which it becomes such assignee or participant, and by each successor Canadian Agent by the execution of an assignment or other agreement, or by the compliance with other formalities, as the case may be, pursuant to which it becomes a successor Canadian Agent under this Agreement.

12.1.6.The Canadian Agent acting as fondé de pouvoir shall have the same rights, powers, immunities, indemnities and exclusions from liability as are prescribed in favor of the Canadian Agent herein, which shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Canadian Agent acting as fondé de pouvoir.

12.2.Agreements Regarding Collateral and Borrower Materials.

12.2.1.Releases; Care of Collateral.  Secured Parties authorize the Applicable Agent (a) to release any Lien with respect to any Collateral (i) upon Full Payment of the Obligations; (ii) that is

92

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

the subject of an Asset Disposition that the Borrowers certify in writing to Administrative Agent is a Permitted Collateral Disposition or a Lien that the Borrowers certify is a Permitted Lien entitled to priority over the Applicable Agent’s Liens (and the Applicable Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate without further inquiry); (iii) that does not constitute a material part of the Collateral; or (iv) subject to Section 14.1, with the consent of all Required Lenders, and (b) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents if (i) such Person becomes an Immaterial Subsidiary, or (ii) such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction expressly permitted under the Loan Documents.  Secured Parties authorize the Applicable Agent to subordinate its Liens to any Purchase Money Lien or other Lien entitled to priority hereunder.  No Agent shall have any obligation to assure that any Collateral exists or is owned by an Obligor, or is cared for, protected or insured, nor to assure that the Applicable Agent’s Liens have been properly created, perfected or enforced, or are entitled to any particular priority, nor to exercise any duty of care with respect to any Collateral.

12.2.2.Possession of Collateral.  Agents and Secured Parties appoint each Lender as agent (for the benefit of Secured Parties) for the purpose of perfecting Liens in any Collateral held or controlled by such Lender, to the extent such Liens are perfected by possession or control.  If any Lender obtains possession or control of any Collateral, it shall notify Administrative Agent thereof and, promptly upon Administrative Agent’s request, deliver such Collateral to the Applicable Agent or otherwise deal with it in accordance with Administrative Agent’s instructions.

12.2.3.Reports.  Administrative Agent shall promptly provide to Lenders, when complete, any field examination, audit or appraisal report prepared for any Agent with respect to any Obligor or Collateral (“Report”).  Reports and other Borrower Materials may be made available to Lenders by providing access to them on the Platform, but Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for system failures or access issues that may occur from time to time.  Each Lender agrees (a) that Reports are not intended to be comprehensive audits or examinations, and that any Agent or any other Person performing an audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Obligations or Collateral and will rely significantly upon Borrowers’ books, records and representations; (b) that Administrative Agent makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any Borrower Materials and shall not be liable for any information contained in or omitted from any Borrower Materials, including any Report; and (c) to keep all Borrower Materials confidential and strictly for such Lender’s internal use, not to distribute any Report or other Borrower Materials (or the contents thereof) to any Person (except to such Lender’s Participants, attorneys, accountants and to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Lender or its Affiliates), and to use all Borrower Materials solely for administration of the Obligations.  Each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and any other Person preparing a Report from any action such Lender may take as a result of or any conclusion it may draw from any Borrower Materials, as well as from any Claims arising as a direct or indirect result of Administrative Agent furnishing same to such Lender, via the Platform or otherwise.

12.3.Reliance By Agents.  Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any certification, notice or other communication (including those by telephone, telex, telegram, telecopy or e-mail) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person.  Each Agent shall have a reasonable and practicable amount of time to act upon any instruction, notice or other communication under any Loan Document, and shall not be liable for any delay in acting.

12.4.Action Upon Default.  No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, or of any failure to satisfy any conditions in Section 6, unless it has received written notice from a Borrower or Required Lenders specifying the occurrence and nature thereof.  If any Lender acquires knowledge of a Default, Event of Default or failure of such conditions, it shall promptly notify

93

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

Administrative Agent and the other Lenders thereof in writing.  Each Secured Party agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any Loan Documents or with the written consent of Administrative Agent and Required Lenders, it will not take any Enforcement Action, accelerate Obligations (other than Secured Bank Product Obligations), or exercise any right that it might otherwise have under Applicable Law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC and PPSA sales or other similar dispositions of Collateral or to assert any rights relating to any Collateral.

12.5.Ratable Sharing.  If any Lender shall obtain any payment or reduction of any Obligation, whether through setoff or otherwise, in excess of its share of such Obligation, determined on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.6.2, as applicable, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the Applicable Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank and the other Applicable Lenders such participations in the affected Obligation as are necessary to cause the purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or reduction on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.6.2, as applicable.  If any of such payment or reduction is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Defaulting Lender obtains a payment or reduction of any Obligation, it shall immediately turn over the amount thereof to the Applicable Agent for application under Section 4.2.2 and it shall provide a written statement to the Applicable Agent describing the Obligation affected by such payment or reduction.  No Lender shall setoff against any Dominion Account without the prior consent of the Applicable Agent.

12.6.Indemnification.  EACH SECURED PARTY SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS AGENT INDEMNITEES AND ISSUING BANK INDEMNITEES, TO THE EXTENT NOT REIMBURSED BY OBLIGORS, ON A PRO RATA BASIS, AGAINST ALL CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY SUCH INDEMNITEE, PROVIDED THAT ANY CLAIM AGAINST AN AGENT INDEMNITEE RELATES TO OR ARISES FROM ITS ACTING AS OR FOR ANY AGENT (IN THE CAPACITY OF AN AGENT).  In no event shall any Lender have any obligation to indemnify or hold harmless an Agent Indemnitee or Issuing Bank Indemnitee with respect to a Claim that is determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.  In the Applicable Agent’s discretion, it may reserve for any Claims made against an Agent Indemnitee or Issuing Bank Indemnitee, and may satisfy any judgment, order or settlement relating thereto, from proceeds of Collateral prior to making any distribution of Collateral proceeds to Secured Parties.  If any Agent is sued by any receiver, bankruptcy trustee, debtor-in-possession or other Person for any alleged preference or fraudulent transfer, then any monies paid by such Agent in settlement or satisfaction of such proceeding, together with all interest, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in the defense of same, shall be promptly reimbursed to such Agent by each Secured Party to the extent of its Pro Rata share.

12.7.Limitation on Responsibilities of Agents.  No Agent shall be liable to any Secured Party for any action taken or omitted to be taken under the Loan Documents, except for losses directly and solely caused by such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  No Agent assumes any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by any Obligor, Lender or other Secured Party of any obligations under the Loan Documents.  No Agent makes any express or implied representation, warranty or guarantee to Secured Parties with respect to any Obligations, Collateral, Liens, Loan Documents or Obligor.  No Agent Indemnitee shall be responsible to Secured Parties for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in any Loan Documents or Borrower Materials; the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any Loan Documents; the genuineness, enforceability, collectibility, value, sufficiency, location or existence of any Collateral, or the validity, extent, perfection or priority of any Lien therein; the validity, enforceability or collectibility of any Obligations; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations,

business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Obligor or Account Debtor.  No Agent Indemnitee shall have any obligation to any Secured Party to ascertain or inquire into the existence of any Default or Event of Default, the observance by any Obligor of any terms of the Loan Documents, or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in any Loan Documents.

12.8.Successor Agents and Co-Agents.

12.8.1.Resignation; Successor Agents.  Each Agent may resign at any time by giving at least 30 days’ written notice thereof to the Applicable Lenders and Borrowers.  Upon receipt of such notice, Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Canadian Agent, as the case may be, which shall be (a) a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender; or (b) a financial institution reasonably acceptable to Required Lenders and (provided no Default or Event of Default exists) Borrowers.  If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative Agent or Canadian Agent, then Administrative Agent or Canadian Agent may appoint a successor agent that is a financial institution reasonably acceptable to it, which shall be a Lender unless no Lender accepts the role or in the absence of such appointment, Required Lenders shall on such date assume all rights and duties of such Agent hereunder.  Upon acceptance by a successor Administrative Agent or Canadian Agent of its appointment hereunder, such successor Administrative Agent or Canadian Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent or Canadian Agent without further act, and the retiring Administrative Agent or Canadian Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder but shall continue to have all rights and protections under the Loan Documents with respect to actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while Agent, including the benefits of the indemnification set forth in Sections 12.6 and 14.2.  Notwithstanding any Agent’s resignation, the provisions of this Section 12 shall continue in effect for its benefit with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while Administrative Agent or Canadian Agent.  Any successor to Bank of America or Bank of America-Canada Branch by merger, amalgamation or acquisition of stock or this loan shall continue to be Administrative Agent or Canadian Agent, as the case may be, hereunder without further act on the part of any Secured Party or Obligor.

If the Person serving as Administrative Agent or Canadian Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Borrower Agent and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent or Canadian Agent, as applicable, and, in consultation with the Borrower Agent, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

12.8.2.Co-Collateral Agent.  If necessary or appropriate under Applicable Law, any Agent may appoint a Person to serve as a co-collateral agent or separate collateral agent under any Loan Document.  Each right and remedy intended to be available to such Agent under such Loan Document shall also be vested in such agent.  Secured Parties shall execute and deliver any instrument or agreement that the Applicable Agent may request to effect such appointment.  If the agent shall die, dissolve, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, then all the rights and remedies of such agent, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Applicable Agent until appointment of a new agent.

12.9.Due Diligence and Non-Reliance.  Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lenders, and based upon such documents, information and analyses as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of each Obligor and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to fund Loans and participate in LC

95

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

Obligations hereunder.  Each Secured Party has made such inquiries as it feels necessary concerning the Loan Documents, Collateral and Obligors.  Each Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Secured Parties have made no representations or warranties concerning any Obligor, any Collateral or the legality, validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any Loan Documents or Obligations.  Each Secured Party will, independently and without reliance upon any other Secured Party, and based upon such financial statements, documents and information as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make and rely upon its own credit decisions in making Loans and participating in LC Obligations, and in taking or refraining from any action under any Loan Documents.  Except for notices, reports and other information expressly requested by a Lender, no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Secured Party with any notices, reports or certificates furnished to such Agent by any Obligor or any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition, business or Properties of any Obligor (or any of its Affiliates) which may come into possession of such Agent or its Affiliates.

12.10.Remittance of Payments and Collections.

12.10.1.Remittances Generally.  All payments by any Lender to the Applicable Agent shall be made by the time and on the day set forth in this Agreement, in immediately available funds.  If no time for payment is specified or if payment is due on demand by the Applicable Agent and request for payment is made by the Applicable Agent by 11:00 a.m. on a Business Day, payment shall be made by Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. on such day, and if request is made after 11:00 a.m., then payment shall be made by 11:00 a.m. on the next Business Day.  Payment by any Agent to any Secured Party shall be made by wire transfer, in the type of funds received by such Agent.  Any such payment shall be subject to such Agent’s right of offset for any amounts due from such payee under the Loan Documents.

12.10.2.Failure to Pay.  If any Secured Party fails to pay any amount when due by it to the Applicable Agent pursuant to the terms hereof, such amount shall bear interest from the due date until paid in full at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate or the rate determined by such Agent as customary for interbank compensation for two Business Days and thereafter at the Default Rate for Base Rate Loans.  In no event shall Borrowers be entitled to receive credit for any interest paid by a Secured Party to any Agent, nor shall any Defaulting Lender be entitled to interest on any amounts held by any Agent pursuant to Section 4.2.

12.10.3.Recovery of Payments.  If any Agent pays any amount to a Secured Party in the expectation that a related payment will be received by such Agent from an Obligor and such related payment is not received, then such Agent may recover such amount from each Secured Party that received it.  If any Agent determines that an amount received by it must be returned or paid to an Obligor or other Person pursuant to Applicable Law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term of any Loan Document, such Agent shall not be required to distribute such amount to any Secured Party.  If any amounts received and applied by any Agent to any Obligations are later required to be returned by such Agent pursuant to Applicable Law, each Lender shall pay to such Agent, on demand, such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the amounts required to be returned.

12.11.Individual Capacities.  As a U.S. Revolver Lender, Bank of America, and as a Canadian Lender, Bank of America-Canada Branch, each shall have the same rights and remedies under the Loan Documents as any other U.S. Revolver Lender or Canadian Lender, as the case may be, and the terms “Lenders,” “U.S. Revolver Lenders,” “Canadian Lenders,” “Required Lenders” or any similar term shall include Bank of America in its capacity as a U.S. Revolver Lender and Bank of America-Canada Branch in its capacity as a Canadian Lender, as the case may be.  Agents, Lenders and their Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, provide Bank Products to, act as financial or other advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Obligors and their Affiliates, as if they were not Agents or Lenders hereunder, without any duty to account therefor to any Secured Party.  In their individual capacities,

96

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

Agents, Lenders and their Affiliates may receive information regarding Obligors, their Affiliates and their Account Debtors (including information subject to confidentiality obligations), and shall have no obligation to provide such information to any Secured Party.

12.12.Agent Titles.  Each Lender, other than Bank of America and Bank of America-Canada Branch, that is designated (on the cover page of this Agreement or otherwise) by Bank of America as an “Agent,” “Arranger” or “Bookrunner” of any type shall not have any right, power, responsibility or duty under any Loan Documents other than those applicable to all Lenders, and shall in no event have any fiduciary duty to any Secured Party.

12.13.Bank Product Providers.  Each Secured Bank Product Provider, by delivery of a notice to Administrative Agent of a Bank Product, agrees to be bound by the Loan Documents, including Sections 5.6, 14.3.3 and this Section 12.  Each Secured Bank Product Provider shall indemnify and hold harmless Agent Indemnitees, to the extent not reimbursed by Obligors, against all Claims that may be incurred by or asserted against any Agent Indemnitee in connection with such provider’s Secured Bank Product Obligations.

12.14.No Third Party Beneficiaries.  This Section 12 is an agreement solely among Secured Parties and Agents, and shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations.  This Section 12 does not confer any rights or benefits upon Borrowers or any other Person.  As between Borrowers and any Agent, any action that any Agent may take under any Loan Documents or with respect to any Obligations shall be conclusively presumed to have been authorized and directed by Secured Parties.

SECTION 13.BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS

13.1.Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrowers, Agents, Lenders, Secured Parties, and their respective successors and assigns, except that (a) no Borrower shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under any Loan Documents; and (b) any assignment by a Lender must be made in compliance with Section 13.3.  Agents may treat the Person which made any Loan as the owner thereof for all purposes until such Person makes an assignment in accordance with Section 13.3.  Any authorization or consent of a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent transferee or assignee of such Lender.

13.2.Participations.

13.2.1.Permitted Participants; Effect.  Subject to Section 13.3.3, any Lender may sell to a financial institution or other entity (“Participant”) a participating interest in the rights and obligations of such Lender under any Loan Documents.  Despite any sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the holder of its Loans, U.S. Revolver Commitments and Canadian Commitments for all purposes, all amounts payable by Borrowers shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and Borrowers and Agents shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the Loan Documents.  Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters under the Loan Documents, and Agents and the other Lenders shall not have any obligation or liability to any such Participant.  A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.9 unless Borrowers agree otherwise in writing.  A Participant that would be a Canadian Lender if it were a Lender, and that is a non-resident of Canada for purposes of Part XIII of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (or lends to the Canadian Borrower hereunder from a lending office outside Canada) shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.9 unless the Canadian Borrower agrees otherwise in writing.

97

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

13.2.2.Voting Rights.  Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Documents other than that which forgives principal, interest or fees, reduces the stated interest rate or fees payable with respect to any Loan, U.S. Revolver Commitment or Canadian Commitment in which such Participant has an interest, postpones the Applicable Commitment Termination Date or any date fixed for any regularly scheduled payment of principal, interest or fees on such Loan, U.S. Revolver Commitment or Canadian Commitment, or releases any Borrower, Guarantor or substantially all Collateral.

13.2.3.Participant Register.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrowers (solely for tax purposes), maintain a register in which it enters the Participant’s name, address and interest in U.S. Revolver Commitments, Canadian Commitments, Loans (and stated interest) and LC Obligations.  Entries in the register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person recorded in the register as the owner of the participation for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  No Lender shall have an obligation to disclose any information in such register except to the extent necessary to establish that a Participant’s interest is in registered form under the Code.

13.2.4.Benefit of Setoff.  Borrowers agree that each Participant shall have a right of setoff in respect of its participating interest to the same extent as if such interest were owing directly to a Lender, and each Lender shall also retain the right of setoff with respect to any participating interests sold by it.  By exercising any right of setoff, a Participant agrees to share with Lenders all amounts received through its setoff, in accordance with Section 12.5 as if such Participant were a Lender.

13.3.Assignments.

13.3.1.Permitted Assignments.  A Lender may assign to an Eligible Assignee any of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, as long as (a) each assignment is of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of the transferor Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents and, in the case of a partial assignment, is in a minimum principal amount of U.S.$10,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent in its discretion) and integral multiples of U.S.$5,000,000 in excess of that amount; (b) except in the case of an assignment in whole of a Lender’s rights and obligations, the aggregate amount of (i) the U.S. Revolver Commitments retained by the transferor Lender is at least U.S.$10,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent in its discretion) and (ii) the Canadian Commitments retained by the transferor Lender is equal to an amount such that the ratio of the U.S. Revolver Commitments retained by the transferor Lender to the Canadian Commitments retained by the transferor Lender is equal to the ratio that existed prior to such assignment; and (c) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording, an Assignment and Acceptance.  Nothing herein shall limit the right of a Lender to pledge or assign any rights under the Loan Documents to secure obligations of such Lender, including a pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from its obligations hereunder nor substitute the pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

13.3.2.Effect; Effective Date.  Upon delivery to Administrative Agent of an assignment notice in the form of Exhibit D and a processing fee of U.S.$3,500 (unless otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent in its discretion), the assignment shall become effective as specified in the notice, if it complies with this Section 13.3.  From such effective date, the Eligible Assignee shall for all purposes be a Lender under the Loan Documents, and shall have all rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder.  Upon consummation of an assignment, the transferor Lender, Administrative Agent and Borrowers shall make appropriate arrangements for issuance of replacement and/or new Notes, as

98

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

applicable.  The transferee Lender shall comply with Section 5.10 and deliver, upon request, an administrative questionnaire satisfactory to Administrative Agent.

13.3.3.Certain Assignees.  No assignment or participation may be made to a Borrower, Affiliate of a Borrower, Defaulting Lender or natural person.  Any assignment by a Defaulting Lender shall be effective only upon payment by the Eligible Assignee or Defaulting Lender to the Applicable Agent of an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution (through direct payment, purchases of participations, or other compensating actions as such Agent deems appropriate), to satisfy all funding and payment liabilities then owing by the Defaulting Lender hereunder.  If an assignment by a Defaulting Lender shall become effective under Applicable Law for any reason without compliance with the foregoing sentence, then the assignee shall be deemed a Defaulting Lender for all purposes until such compliance occurs.

13.3.4.Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrowers (solely for tax purposes), shall maintain (a) a copy (or electronic equivalent) of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it, and (b) a register for recordation of the names, addresses, U.S. Revolver Commitments and Canadian Commitments of, and the Loans, interest and LC Obligations owing to, each Lender.  Entries in the register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and Borrowers, Agents and Lenders shall treat each lender recorded in such register as a Lender for all purposes under the Loan Documents, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  The Administrative Agent may choose to show only one Borrower as the borrower in the register, without any effect on the liability of any Obligor with respect to the Obligations.  The register shall be available for inspection by Borrowers or any Lender, from time to time upon reasonable notice.

13.4.Replacement of Certain Lenders.  If (a) any Lender gives a notice under Section 3.5 or requests compensation under Section 3.7, or if any Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.9 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 3.8, or (b) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower Agent may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 13.3), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 3.7 and Section 5.9) and obligations under this Agreement and the related 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:

(i)the Borrowers shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing fee (if any) specified in Section 13.3.2;

(ii)such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in unpaid drawings under Letters of Credit, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.9) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii)in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.7 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.9, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

99

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

(iv)such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law; and

(v)in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower Agent to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

SECTION 14.MISCELLANEOUS

14.1.Consents, Amendments and Waivers.

14.1.1.Amendment.  No modification of any Loan Document, including any extension or amendment of a Loan Document or any waiver of a Default or Event of Default, shall be effective without the prior written agreement of Administrative Agent (with the consent of Required Lenders) and each Obligor party to such Loan Document; provided, however, that

(a)without the prior written consent of the Applicable Agent, no modification shall be effective with respect to any provision in a Loan Document that relates to any rights, duties or discretion of the Applicable Agent;

(b)without the prior written consent of the applicable Issuing Bank, no modification shall be effective with respect to any LC Obligations, Section 2.3 or any other provision in a Loan Document that relates to any rights, duties or discretion of such Issuing Bank;

(c)without the prior written consent of each affected Lender, including a Defaulting Lender, no modification shall be effective that would (i) increase the U.S. Revolver Commitment or Canadian Commitment of such Lender; (ii) reduce the amount of, or waive or delay payment of, any principal, interest or fees payable to such Lender (except as provided in Section 4.2); provided, however, that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate”; (iii) extend the U.S. Revolver Termination Date; (iv) extend the Canadian Termination Date; or (v) amend this clause (c);

(d)without the prior written consent of all Lenders (except any Defaulting Lender), no modification shall be effective that would (i) alter Sections 5.6.2 or 14.1.1; (ii) amend the definitions of (A) Aggregate Borrowing Base, U.S. Revolver Borrowing Base or Canadian Borrowing Base (or any defined term used in such definitions), if as a result thereof the credit available to the Borrowers would be increased, (B) Pro Rata or (C) Required Lenders; (iii) increase any advance rate (it being understood that clauses (ii) and (iii) above shall not (A) limit the adjustment by the Administrative Agent of the Availability Reserve in the Administrative Agent’s administration of the Loans as otherwise permitted by this Agreement or (B) prevent the Administrative Agent, in its administration of the Loans, from restoring any component of the U.S. Revolver Borrowing Base or the Canadian Borrowing Base that had been lowered by the Administrative Agent back to the value of such component, as stated in this Agreement, or to an intermediate value); (iv) release all or substantially all of the Collateral; (v) except in connection with a merger, disposition or similar transaction expressly permitted hereby, release any Obligor from liability for any Obligations; (vi) amend Section 14.19; or (vii) amend provisions herein relating to the Pro Rata treatment of (x) payments or (y) reductions in the U.S. Revolver Commitments or Canadian Commitments; and

100

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

(e)without the prior written consent of a Secured Bank Product Provider, no modification shall be effective that affects its relative payment priority under Section 5.6.2.

14.1.2.Limitations.  The agreement of Borrowers shall not be necessary to the effectiveness of any modification of a Loan Document that deals solely with the rights and duties of Lenders, Agents and/or Issuing Banks as among themselves.  Only the consent of the parties to the Fee Letter or any other agreement relating to fees or a Bank Product shall be required for any modification of such agreement, and no Bank Product provider (in such capacity) shall have any right to consent to modification of any Loan Document other than its Bank Product agreement.  Any waiver or consent granted by Agents or Lenders hereunder shall be effective only if in writing and only for the matter specified.

14.1.3.Payment for Consents.  No Borrower will, directly or indirectly, pay any remuneration or other thing of value, whether by way of additional interest, fee or otherwise, to any Lender (in its capacity as a Lender hereunder) as consideration for agreement by such Lender with any modification of any Loan Documents, unless such remuneration or value is concurrently paid, on the same terms, on a Pro Rata basis to all Lenders providing their consent.

14.2.Indemnity.  EACH BORROWER SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE INDEMNITEES AGAINST ANY CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE, INCLUDING CLAIMS ASSERTED BY ANY OBLIGOR OR OTHER PERSON OR ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF AN INDEMNITEE.  In no event shall any party to a Loan Document have any obligation thereunder to indemnify or hold harmless an Indemnitee with respect to a Claim that is determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.  For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 14.2 shall not apply to any Claim on account of Taxes governed by (or excluded from the application of) Sections 3.7 or 5.9.

14.3.Notices and Communications.

14.3.1.Notice Address.  Subject to Section 4.1.4, all notices and other communications by or to a party hereto shall be in writing and shall be given to any Borrower, at Borrower Agent’s address shown on the signature pages hereof, and to any other Person at its address shown on the signature pages hereof (or, in the case of a Person who becomes a Lender after the Closing Date, at the address shown on its Assignment and Acceptance), or at such other address as a party may hereafter specify by notice in accordance with this Section 14.3.  Each such notice or other communication shall be effective only (a) if given by facsimile transmission, when transmitted to the applicable facsimile number, if confirmation of receipt is received; (b) if given by mail, three Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mail, with first-class postage pre-paid, addressed to the applicable address; or (c) if given by personal delivery, when duly delivered to the notice address with receipt acknowledged.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice to any Agent pursuant to Section 2.1.4, 2.3, 3.1.2, or 4.1.1 shall be effective until actually received by the individual to whose attention at such Agent such notice is required to be sent.  Any written notice or other communication that is not sent in conformity with the foregoing provisions shall nevertheless be effective on the date actually received by the noticed party.  Any notice received by Borrower Agent shall be deemed received by all Borrowers.

14.3.2.Electronic Communications; Voice Mail.  Electronic and telephonic communications (including e-mail, messaging, voice mail and websites) may be used only in a manner acceptable to Agents.  Secured Parties make no assurance as to the privacy or security of electronic or telephonic communications.  E-mail and voice mail shall not be effective notices under the Loan Documents.

14.3.3.Platform.  Borrower Materials shall be delivered pursuant to procedures approved by Administrative Agent, including electronic delivery (if possible) upon request by Administrative Agent to an electronic system maintained by Administrative Agent (“Platform”).  Borrowers shall notify Administrative Agent of each posting of Borrower Materials on the Platform and the materials shall be deemed received by Administrative Agent only upon its receipt of such notice.  Borrower Materials and other information relating to this credit facility may be made available to Secured Parties on the Platform, and Obligors and Secured Parties acknowledge that “public” information is not segregated from material non-public information on the Platform.  The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.”  Administrative Agent does not warrant the accuracy or completeness of any information on the Platform nor the adequacy or functioning of the Platform, and expressly disclaims liability for any errors or omissions in the Borrower Materials or any issues involving the Platform.  NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS, OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT WITH RESPECT TO BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM.  Secured Parties acknowledge that Borrower Materials may include material non-public information of Obligors and should not be made available to any personnel who do not wish to receive such information or who may be engaged in investment or other market-related activities with respect to any Obligor’s securities.  No Agent Indemnitee shall have any liability to Borrowers, Secured Parties or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) relating to use by any Person of the Platform, including any unintended recipient, nor for delivery of Borrower Materials and other information via the Platform, internet, e-mail or any other electronic platform or messaging system.

14.3.4.Non-Conforming Communications.  Agents and Lenders may rely upon any communications purportedly given by or on behalf of any Borrower even if they were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not confirmed, or if the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from a later confirmation.  Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from any liabilities, losses, costs and expenses arising from any electronic or telephonic communication purportedly given by or on behalf of a Borrower.

14.4.Performance of Borrowers’ Obligations.  Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Agent may, in its discretion at any time and from time to time, at Borrowers’ expense, pay any amount or do any act required of a Borrower under any Loan Documents or otherwise lawfully requested by such Agent to (a) enforce any Loan Documents or collect any Obligations; (b) protect, insure, maintain or realize upon any Collateral; or (c) defend or maintain the validity or priority of such Agent’s Liens in any Collateral, including any payment of a judgment, insurance premium, warehouse charge, finishing or processing charge, or landlord claim, or any discharge of a Lien.  All payments, costs and expenses (including Extraordinary Expenses) of Agents under this Section shall be reimbursed to Agents by Borrowers, on demand, with interest from the date incurred until paid in full, at the Default Rate applicable to Base Rate Loans.  Any payment made or action taken by Agents under this Section shall be without prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default or to exercise any other rights or remedies under the Loan Documents.

14.5.Credit Inquiries.  Agents and Lenders may (but shall have no obligation) to respond to usual and customary credit inquiries from third parties concerning any Obligor or Subsidiary.

14.6.Severability.  Wherever possible, each provision of the Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such manner as to be valid under Applicable Law.  If any provision is found to be invalid under Applicable Law, it shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity and the remaining provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect.

102

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

14.7.Cumulative Effect; Conflict of Terms.  The provisions of the Loan Documents are cumulative.  The parties acknowledge that the Loan Documents may use several limitations or measurements to regulate similar matters, and they agree that these are cumulative and that each must be performed as provided.  Except as otherwise provided in another Loan Document (by specific reference to the applicable provision of this Agreement), if any provision contained herein is in direct conflict with any provision in another Loan Document, the provision herein shall govern and control.

14.8.Counterparts; Execution.  Any Loan Document may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  This Agreement shall become effective when Administrative Agent has received counterparts bearing the signatures of all parties hereto.  Delivery of a signature page of any Loan Document by telecopy or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of such agreement.  Any electronic signature, contract formation on an electronic platform and electronic record-keeping shall have the same legal validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based recordkeeping system to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any similar state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.  Upon request by any Agent, any electronic signature or delivery shall be promptly followed by a manually executed or paper document.

14.9.Time is of the Essence.  Except as otherwise expressly provided to the contrary herein or in another Loan Document, time is of the essence with respect to all Loan Documents and Obligations.

14.10.Relationship with Lenders.  The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or U.S. Revolver Commitments or Canadian Commitments of any other Lender.  Amounts payable hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt.  It shall not be necessary for any Agent or any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purposes.  Nothing in this Agreement and no action of any Agent, Lenders or any other Secured Party pursuant to the Loan Documents or otherwise shall be deemed to constitute any Agent and any Secured Party to be a partnership, association, joint venture or any other kind of entity, nor to constitute control of any Obligor.

14.11.No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.  In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated by any Loan Document, Borrowers acknowledge and agree that (a)(i) this credit facility and any related arranging or other services by any Agent, any Lender, any of their Affiliates or any arranger are arm’s-length commercial transactions between Borrowers and their Affiliates, on one hand, and any Agent, any Lender, any of their Affiliates or any arranger, on the other hand; (ii) Borrowers have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they have deemed appropriate; and (iii) Borrowers are capable of evaluating, and understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; (b) each of Agents, Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for Borrowers, any of their Affiliates or any other Person, and has no obligation with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents except as expressly set forth therein; and (c) Agents, Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Borrowers and their Affiliates, and have no obligation to disclose any of such interests to Borrowers or their Affiliates.  To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against Agents, Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger with respect to any breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any transaction contemplated by a Loan Document.

103

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

14.12.Confidentiality.  Each of Agents, Lenders and Issuing Banks shall maintain the confidentiality of all Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates, and to its and their partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (provided such Persons are informed of the confidential nature of the Information and instructed to keep it confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it or its Affiliates; (c) to the extent required by Applicable Law or by any subpoena or other legal process; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with any action or proceeding, or other exercise of rights or remedies, relating to any Loan Documents or Obligations; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as this Section, to any Transferee or any actual or prospective party (or its advisors) to any Bank Product or to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to an Obligor or Obligor’s obligations; (g) with the consent of Borrower Agent; (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) is available to any Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any of their Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Borrowers, or (i) on a confidential basis to a provider of a Platform.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agents and Lenders may publish or disseminate general information concerning this credit facility for league table, tombstone and advertising purposes, and may use Borrowers’ logos, trademarks or product photographs in advertising materials that refer to this credit facility.  As used herein, “Information” means all information received from an Obligor or Subsidiary relating to it or its business that is identified as confidential when delivered.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information pursuant to this Section shall be deemed to have complied if it exercises a degree of care similar to that which it accords its own confidential information.  Each of Agents, Lenders and Issuing Banks acknowledges that (i) Information may include material non-public information; (ii) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information; and (iii) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with Applicable Law.

14.13.Judgment Currency.  If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Applicable Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.  The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Applicable Agent or any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency.  If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Agent or any Lender from any Borrower in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, against such loss.  If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Applicable Agent or any Lender in such currency, the Applicable Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under Applicable Law).

14.14.GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES (BUT GIVING EFFECT TO FEDERAL LAWS RELATING TO NATIONAL BANKS).

104

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

14.15.Consent to Forum.  EACH BORROWER HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT SITTING IN OR WITH JURISDICTION OVER NEW YORK, IN ANY PROCEEDING OR DISPUTE RELATING IN ANY WAY TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH PROCEEDING SHALL BE BROUGHT BY IT SOLELY IN ANY SUCH COURT.  EACH BORROWER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL CLAIMS, OBJECTIONS AND DEFENSES THAT IT MAY HAVE REGARDING SUCH COURT’S PERSONAL OR SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION, VENUE OR INCONVENIENT FORUM.  EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 14.3.1.  Nothing herein shall limit the right of any Agent or any Lender to bring proceedings against any Obligor in any other court, nor limit the right of any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to preclude enforcement by any Agent of any judgment or order obtained in any forum or jurisdiction.

14.16.Waivers by Borrowers.  To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Borrower waives (a) the right to trial by jury (which each Agent and each Lender hereby also waives) in any proceeding or dispute of any kind relating in any way to any Loan Documents, Obligations or Collateral; (b) presentment, demand, protest, notice of presentment, default, non-payment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any commercial paper, accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper and guaranties at any time held by any Agent on which a Borrower may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies anything any Agent may do in this regard; (c) notice prior to taking possession or control of any Collateral; (d) any bond or security that might be required by a court prior to allowing any Agent to exercise any rights or remedies; (e) the benefit of all valuation, appraisement and exemption laws; (f) any claim against any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) in any way relating to any Enforcement Action, Obligations, Loan Documents or transactions relating thereto; and (g) notice of acceptance hereof.  Each Borrower acknowledges that the foregoing waivers are a material inducement to Agents, Issuing Banks and Lenders entering into this Agreement and that they are relying upon the foregoing in their dealings with Borrowers.  Each Borrower has reviewed the foregoing waivers with its legal counsel and has knowingly and voluntarily waived its jury trial and other rights following consultation with legal counsel.  In the event of litigation, this Agreement may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court.

14.17.Patriot Act Notice.  Agents and Lenders hereby notify Borrowers that pursuant to the Patriot Act, Agents and Lenders are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, including its legal name, address, tax ID number and other information that will allow Agents and Lenders to identify it in accordance with the Patriot Act.  Agents and Lenders will also require information regarding each personal guarantor, if any, and may require information regarding Borrowers’ management and owners, such as legal name, address, social security number and date of birth.  The Borrowers shall, promptly following a request by any Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that such Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act.

14.18.Existing Credit Agreement.

14.18.1.Amendment and Restatement of Existing Credit Agreement.  This Agreement shall on the Closing Date amend, restate and supersede the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety, except as provided in this Section 14.18.  All references in the Loan Documents or any other document or instrument executed or delivered in connection therewith to “Agreement” shall hereafter be deemed to be references to this Agreement.  It is the intention of the parties hereto that this Agreement shall not

105

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

constitute (a) a novation or discharge of the indebtedness and obligations evidenced by the Existing Credit Agreement, or (b) a release of the security interests granted thereunder.  On the Closing Date, the rights and obligations of the parties evidenced by the Existing Credit Agreement shall be evidenced by the Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  As of the Closing Date, the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued pursuant and subject to the conditions of Section 2.3 hereof and the Borrowers hereby affirm their respective obligations thereunder.

14.18.2.Interest and Fees Under Superseded Agreement.  All interest and fees and expenses, if any, owing or accruing under or in respect of the Existing Credit Agreement through the Closing Date shall be calculated as of the Closing Date (pro rated in the case of any fractional periods), and shall be paid on the Closing Date.  Commencing on the Closing Date, the unused line and facility fees shall be payable by the applicable Borrower or Borrowers to the Applicable Agent for the account of the Applicable Lenders in accordance with Section 3.2.

14.19.Pari Passu Treatment.

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Administrative Agent may and, upon the request of the Required Lenders, shall, upon notice to each Lender, effect the remaining provisions of this Section 14.19 by causing each payment or prepayment of principal and interest received after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default hereunder to be distributed pari passu among the Lenders, in accordance with the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Obligations owing to each Lender divided by the Total Outstandings.  Such notice shall also attach a schedule setting forth the Total Outstandings at such time including a breakdown of the Total U.S. Revolver Outstandings and the Total Canadian Outstandings.  Nothing in this Section 14.19 shall constitute a guarantee by any Obligor of the obligations of any other Obligor.

(b)Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default or acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 11.2 and receipt of a notice from the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (a) above, each Lender agrees that if it shall, through the exercise of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against any Borrower (pursuant to Section 11.4 or otherwise), including a secured claim under Section 506 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or other security or interest arising from or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under the Bankruptcy Code, or any other insolvency, debtor relief or debt adjustment law or otherwise, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of the Loans, Letters of Credit, LC Obligations and other Obligations held by it as a result of which the unpaid principal portion of the Obligations held by it shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal portion of the Obligations held by any other Lender, it shall be deemed to have simultaneously purchased from such other Lender a participation in the Obligations held by such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Obligations and participations in Obligations held by each Lender shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Obligations then outstanding as the principal amount of the Obligations held by it prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim was to the principal amount of all Obligations outstanding prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim; provided, however, that if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section 14.19 and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustments restored without interest.

(c)Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default or acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 11.2, each Lender agrees that, upon notice from the Administrative Agent to such Lender, which notice shall be provided upon the request of the Required Lenders or may be provided by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, such Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from each other Lender a participation in the risk associated with the

106

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

Obligations held by such other Lender, so that the aggregate principal amount of the Obligations held by each Lender shall be equivalent to such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the Obligations.  Upon demand by the Administrative Agent, made at the request of the Required Lenders, each Lender that has purchased such participation (a “Purchasing Lender”) shall pay the amount of such participation to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender whose outstanding Loans and participations in LC Obligations exceed their Pro Rata share of the Obligations.  Any such participation may, at the option of such Purchasing Lender, be paid in U.S. Dollars or Canadian Dollars, as the case may be (the “Funding Currency”) (in an amount equal to the then applicable U.S. Dollar Equivalent amount of such participation) and such payment shall be converted by the Administrative Agent at the exchange rate into the currency of the Loan or LC Obligation in which such participation is being purchased.  The Borrowers agree to indemnify each Purchasing Lender for any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Purchasing Lender as a result of any payment on account of such participation in a currency other than that funded by the Purchasing Lender.

(d)Each Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Person holding such a participation in the Obligations deemed to have been so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by such Borrower to such Person as fully as if such Person had made a Loan directly to such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

14.20.NO ORAL AGREEMENT  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.  THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

permitted by law, interest not paid when due), at the Base Rate in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin.  Interest shall accrue from the date the Loan is advanced or the Obligation is incurred or payable, until paid by the Borrowers.  If a Loan is repaid on the same day made, one day’s interest shall accrue.

(b)           During an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to any Borrower, or during any other Event of Default if Administrative Agent or Required Lenders in their discretion so elect, Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate (whether before or after any judgment).  Each Borrower acknowledges that the cost and expense to the Administrative Agent and Lenders due to an Event of Default are difficult to ascertain and that the Default Rate is fair and reasonable compensation for this.

(c)           Interest accrued on the Loans shall be due and payable in arrears, (i) (x) with respect to any LIBOR Loan, the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan exceeds three (3) months, interest accrued on such Loan shall also be due and payable on the respective dates that fall every three (3) months after the beginning of such Interest Period and (y) with respect any Base Rate Loan, on the first day of each month; (ii) on any date of prepayment, with respect to the principal amount of Loans being prepaid; and (iii) on the Termination Date.  Interest accrued on any other Obligations shall be due and payable as provided in the Loan Documents and, if no payment date is specified, shall be due and payable on demand.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest accrued at the Default Rate shall be due and payable on demand.

(a)           Borrowers may on any Business Day, subject to delivery of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, elect to convert any portion of Base Rate Loans to, or to continue any LIBOR Loan at the end of its Interest Period as, a LIBOR Loan.  During any Default or Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may (and shall at the direction of Required Lenders) declare that no Loan may be made, converted or continued as a LIBOR Loan.

(b)           Whenever Borrowers desire to convert or continue Loans as LIBOR Loans, Borrower Agent shall give Administrative Agent a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, no later than 11:00 a.m. at least three Business Days before the requested conversion or continuation date.  Promptly after receiving any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender thereof.  Each Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall be irrevocable, and shall specify the amount of Loans to be converted or continued, the conversion or continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), and the duration of the Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be 30 days if not specified).  If, upon the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of any LIBOR Loans, Borrower Agent shall have failed to deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, it shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Loans into Base Rate Loans.  Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, nor shall it have any liability with respect to, administration, submission or any other matter related to any rate described in the definition of LIBOR.

3.1.3.            Interest Periods.  In connection with the making, conversion or continuation of any LIBOR Loans, Borrower Agent shall select an interest period (“Interest Period”) to apply, which interest period shall be a period of one month, two months, three months, six months or, with the approval of all affected Lenders, nine months; provided, however, that:

(a)           the Interest Period shall commence on the date the Loan is made or continued as, or converted into, a LIBOR Loan, and shall expire on the numerically corresponding day in the applicable calendar month at its end;

26

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

(b)           if any Interest Period commences on a day for which there is no corresponding day in the applicable calendar month at its end or if such corresponding day falls after the last Business Day of such month, then the Interest Period shall expire on the last Business Day of such month; and if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, the period shall expire on the next Business Day; and

(c)           no Interest Period shall extend beyond the Termination Date.

3.1.4.            Interest Rate Not Ascertainable.  If the Administrative Agent shall determine that on any date for determining LIBOR adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining such rate on the basis provided herein, then the Administrative Agent shall immediately notify the Borrowers of such determination.  Until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers that such circumstance no longer exists, the obligation of the Lenders to make LIBOR Loans shall be suspended, and no further Loans may be converted into or continued as LIBOR Loans.

3.2.         [Intentionally Omitted.]

3.3.         Computation of Interest, Fees, Yield Protection.  All computations of interest for LIBOR Loans shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed.  All other computations of interest, as well as fees and other charges calculated on a per annum basis, shall be computed for the actual days elapsed, based on a year of 365 days.  Each determination by the Administrative Agent of any interest, fees or interest rate hereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.  All fees shall be fully earned when due and shall not be subject to rebate, refund or proration.  A certificate as to amounts payable by Borrowers under Section 3.4, 3.6, 3.7, 3.9 or 5.9, submitted to Borrower Agent by the Administrative Agent or the affected Lender, as applicable, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers shall pay such amounts to the appropriate party within 10 days following receipt of the certificate.

3.4.         Reimbursement Obligations.  Borrowers shall reimburse the Administrative Agent and Lenders for all Extraordinary Expenses.  Borrowers shall also reimburse the Administrative Agent for all reasonable legal, accounting, appraisal, consulting, and other fees, costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with (a) negotiation and preparation of any Loan Documents, including any amendment or other modification thereof; (b) administration of and actions relating to any Collateral, Loan Documents and transactions contemplated thereby, including (i) any actions taken to perfect or maintain priority of the Administrative Agent’s Liens on any Collateral, to maintain any insurance required hereunder or to verify Collateral and (ii) the Platform or any other dedicated agency web page on the internet to distribute to the Lenders and to other investors or potential investors any required documentation and financial information regarding the Loan Documents and the Loans; and (c) subject to the limits of Sections 10.1.1(b) and 10.1.10, each inspection, audit or appraisal with respect to any Obligor or Collateral, whether prepared by the Administrative Agent’s personnel or a third party.  Legal, accounting and consulting fees may be charged to Borrowers by the Administrative Agent’s professionals at their usual and customary hourly rates for similar services, regardless of any reduced or alternative fee billing arrangements that the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates may have with such professionals with respect to this or any other transaction.  Borrowers acknowledge that counsel may provide the Administrative Agent with a benefit, such as a discount, credit or other accommodation, based on counsel’s overall relationship with the Administrative Agent, including fees paid hereunder.  All amounts payable by Borrowers under this Section shall be due on demand.

3.5.         Illegality.  If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender [or its applicable Lending Office]to perform any of its obligations hereunder to make, maintain[ or fund], fund or charge

27

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

applicable interest or fees with respect to any LIBOR Loans, or to [determine]charge interest or determine interest rates [or charge interest ]based upon LIBOR, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, U.S. Dollars in the London interbank market, any other relevant interbank market or the position of such Lender in such market then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to [make or]perform such obligations to make, maintain or fund such Loans (or to charge interest or fees with respect thereto), or to continue LIBOR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.  Upon delivery of such notice, Borrowers shall prepay all LIBOR Loans of such Lender or convert all LIBOR Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Base Rate Loans.  Upon any such prepayment or conversion, Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

3.6.         Inability to Determine Rates.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify Borrower Agent and Lenders if, in connection with any request for a Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, a LIBOR Loan (a) the Administrative Agent determines that (i) deposits are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore interbank market for such currency for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Loan, or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining LIBOR for the requested Interest Period, or (b) the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders determine for any reason that LIBOR for the requested Interest Period does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan.  Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon instruction by Required Lenders) withdraws such notice.  Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower Agent may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of a LIBOR Loan or, failing that, the Borrower Agent will be deemed to have submitted a request for a Base Rate Loan.

3.7.         Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.

3.7.1.            Increased Costs Generally.  If any Change in Law shall:

(a)           impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, liquidity, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in LIBOR);

(b)           subject any Recipient to Taxes (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and (iii) Connection Income Taxes) with respect to any Loan, Commitment or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(c)           impose on any Lender or any interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting any Loan, Loan Document or Commitment;

and the result thereof shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan, Commitment, or converting to or continuing any interest option for a Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

28

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

3.7.2.            Capital Requirements.  If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such holding company’s capital as a consequence of this Agreement, or such Lender’s Commitments or Loans to a level below that which such Lender or such holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s and such holding company’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it or its holding company for any such reduction suffered.

3.7.3.            Compensation.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of its right to demand such compensation, but Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that the Lender notifies Borrower Agent of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

3.8.         Mitigation.  If any Lender gives a notice under Section 3.5 or requests compensation under Section 3.7, or if any Borrower is required to pay additional amounts with respect to a Lender under Section 5.9, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (a) would eliminate the need for such notice or reduce amounts payable or to be withheld in the future, as applicable; and (b) would not subject the Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to it or unlawful.  Borrowers shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

3.9.         Funding Losses.  If for any reason (other than default by a Lender) (a) any Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, a LIBOR Loan does not occur on the date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn), (b) any repayment or conversion of a LIBOR Loan occurs on a day other than the end of its Interest Period, (c) the Borrowers fail to repay a LIBOR Loan when required hereunder, or (d) a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) is required to assign a LIBOR Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period pursuant to Section 13.4, then the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent its customary administrative charge and to each Lender all resulting losses and expenses, including loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from liquidation or redeployment of funds or from fees payable to terminate deposits of matching funds.  Lenders shall not be required to purchase U.S. Dollar deposits in any interbank or offshore U.S. Dollar market to fund any LIBOR Loan, but this Section shall apply as if each Lender had purchased such deposits.

3.10.       Maximum Interest.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by Applicable Law (“maximum rate”).  If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the maximum rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Obligations or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrowers.  In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the maximum rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest; (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof; and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

SECTION 4.        LOAN ADMINISTRATION

4.1.         Manner of Borrowing and Funding Loans.

4.1.1.            Notice of Borrowing.

(a)           Borrowers shall give the Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing in connection with any Borrowing of Loans.  Such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. (i) on the Business Day of the requested funding date, in the case of Base Rate Loans, and (ii) at least three Business Days prior to the requested funding date, in the case of LIBOR Loans.  Notices received after 11:00 a.m. shall be deemed received on the next Business Day.  Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) the amount of the Borrowing, (B) the requested funding date (which must be a Business Day), (C) whether the Borrowing is to be made as Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans, and (D) in the case of LIBOR Loans, the duration of the applicable Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be one month if not specified).

(b)           Unless payment is otherwise timely made by Borrowers, the becoming due of any Obligations (whether principal, interest, fees or other charges, including Extraordinary Expenses) shall be deemed to be a request for Base Rate Loans on the due date, in the amount of such Obligations.  The proceeds of such Loans shall be disbursed as direct payment of the relevant Obligation.  In addition, the Administrative Agent may, at its option, charge such Obligations against any operating, investment or other account of a Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates.

4.1.2.            Fundings by Lenders.  Each Lender shall timely honor its Commitment by funding its Pro Rata share of each Borrowing of Loans that is properly requested hereunder.  The Administrative Agent shall endeavor to notify the Lenders of each Notice of Borrowing (or deemed request for a Borrowing) by 12:00 noon on the proposed funding date for Base Rate Loans or by 3:00 p.m. at least two Business Days before any proposed funding of LIBOR Loans.  Each Lender shall fund to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the Borrowing to the account specified by the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the requested funding date, unless the Administrative Agent’s notice is received after the times provided above, in which case the Lender shall fund its Pro Rata share by 11:00 a.m. on the next Business Day.  Subject to its receipt of such amounts from the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall disburse the proceeds of the Loans as directed by Borrower Agent.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received (in sufficient time to act) written notice from a Lender that it does not intend to fund its Pro Rata share of a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has deposited or promptly will deposit its share with the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may disburse a corresponding amount to Borrowers.  Subject to Section 3.8, a Lender may fulfill its obligations under the Loan Documents through one or more Lending Offices, and this shall not affect any obligation of Obligors under the Loan Documents or with respect to any Obligations.

4.1.3.            [Intentionally Omitted.]

4.1.4.            Notices.  Borrowers may request, convert or continue Loans, select interest rates, and transfer funds based on telephonic or e-mailed instructions to the Administrative Agent.  Borrowers shall confirm each such request by prompt delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, if applicable, but if such notice differs materially from the action taken by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders pursuant to the telephonic or e-mailed instructions from Borrowers, the records of the Administrative Agent and such Lenders shall govern.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability for any loss suffered by a Borrower as a result of the Administrative Agent or any Lender acting upon its understanding of telephonic

30

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

or e-mailed instructions from a person believed in good faith by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to be a person authorized to give such instructions on a Borrower’s behalf.

4.2.         Defaulting Lender.

4.2.1.            Reallocation of Pro Rata Share; Amendments.  For purposes of determining Lenders’ obligations or rights to fund or receive collections with respect to Loans, the Administrative Agent may exclude the Commitments and Loans of a Defaulting Lender from the calculation of Pro Rata shares.  A Defaulting Lender shall have no right to vote on any amendment, waiver or other modification of a Loan Document, except as provided in Section 14.1.1(b).

4.2.2.            Payments; Fees.  The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, receive and retain any amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender under the Loan Documents, and a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have assigned to the Administrative Agent such amounts until all Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent, non-Defaulting Lenders and other Secured Parties have been paid in full.  The Administrative Agent may apply such amounts to the Defaulting Lender’s defaulted obligations or readvance the amounts to Borrowers hereunder.

4.2.3.            Status; Cure.  The Administrative Agent may determine in its discretion that a Lender constitutes a Defaulting Lender and the effective date of such status shall be conclusive and binding on all parties, absent manifest error.  Borrowers and the Administrative Agent may agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, whereupon Pro Rata shares shall be reallocated without exclusion of the reinstated Lender’s Commitments and Loans, and all outstanding Loans and other exposures under the Commitments shall be reallocated among the Lenders and settled by the Administrative Agent (with appropriate payments by the reinstated Lender, including payment of any breakage costs for reallocated LIBOR Loans) in accordance with the readjusted Pro Rata shares.  Unless expressly agreed by Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, no reallocation of Loans to non-Defaulting Lenders and no reinstatement of a Defaulting Lender shall constitute a waiver or release of claims against such Lender.  The failure of any Lender to fund a Loan or otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations, and no Lender shall be responsible for default by another Lender.

4.3.         Number and Amount of LIBOR Loans; Determination of Rate.  Each Borrowing of LIBOR Loans when made shall be in a minimum amount of U.S.$10,000,000, plus any increment of U.S.$1,000,000 in excess thereof.  No more than six (6) Borrowings of LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at any time, and all LIBOR Loans having the same length and beginning date of their Interest Periods shall be aggregated together and considered one Borrowing for this purpose.  Upon determining LIBOR for any Interest Period requested by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers thereof by telephone or electronically and, if requested by such Borrowers, shall confirm any telephonic notice in writing.

4.4.         Borrower Agent.  Each Borrower hereby designates UNFI (“Borrower Agent”) as its representative and agent for all purposes under the Loan Documents, including requests for Loans, designation of interest rates, delivery or receipt of communications, preparation and delivery of financial reports, receipt and payment of Obligations, requests for waivers, amendments or other accommodations, actions under the Loan Documents (including in respect of compliance with covenants), and all other dealings with the Administrative Agent or any Lender.  Borrower Agent hereby accepts such appointment.  The Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any notice or communication (including any notice of borrowing) delivered by Borrower Agent on behalf of any Borrower.  The Administrative Agent and Lenders may give any notice or communication with a Borrower hereunder to Borrower Agent on behalf of such Borrower.  The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall have the right, in its discretion, to deal exclusively with Borrower Agent for any or all

31

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

purposes under the Loan Documents.  Each Borrower agrees that any notice, election, communication, representation, agreement or undertaking made on its behalf by Borrower Agent shall be binding upon and enforceable against it.

4.5.         One Obligation.  The Loans and other Obligations constitute one general obligation of Borrowers and are secured by the Administrative Agent’s Lien on all Collateral; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be deemed to be a creditor of, and the holder of a separate claim against, each Borrower to the extent of any Obligations jointly or severally owed by such Borrower.

4.6.         Effect of Termination.  Until Full Payment of the Obligations, all undertakings of Borrowers contained in the Loan Documents shall continue, and the Administrative Agent shall retain its Liens in the Collateral and all of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents.  No Agent shall be required to terminate its Liens unless it receives Cash Collateral or a written agreement, in each case satisfactory to it, protecting the Administrative Agent and Lenders from the dishonor or return of any Payment Items previously applied to the Obligations.  Sections 3.4, 3.7, 3.9, 5.5, 5.9, 5.10, 12, 14.2, this Section, and each indemnity or waiver given by an Obligor or Lender in any Loan Document, shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations.

SECTION 5.        PAYMENTS

5.1.         General Payment Provisions.  All payments of Obligations shall be made in U.S. Dollars, without offset, counterclaim or defense of any kind, free of (and without deduction for) any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law, and in immediately available funds, not later than 12:00 noon on the due date.  If any payment to be made by any Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.  Any payment of a LIBOR Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period shall be accompanied by all amounts due under Section 3.9.  Any prepayment of Loans shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans and then to LIBOR Loans.

5.2.         Repayment of Loans; Obligations.

5.2.1.            Payment of Principal.

(a)           The principal amount of the Loans (other than any Incremental Loans) shall be repaid on the first day of each Fiscal Quarter in consecutive quarterly installments of $2,500,000, commencing on November 1, 2014 until the Termination Date.

(b)           The principal amount of the Incremental Loans shall be repaid on the first day of each Fiscal Quarter in consecutive quarterly installments, each in an amount equal to one-sixtieth (1/60) of the aggregate initial principal amount of such Incremental Loans, commencing on the first day of the first Fiscal Quarter that is at least sixty (60) days after the funding of such Incremental Loans and continuing on the first day of each Fiscal Quarter thereafter until the Termination Date.

(c)           On the Termination Date, all principal, interest and other amounts owing with respect to all Loans shall be due and payable in full.  Each installment referenced in clauses (a) and (b) above shall be paid to Administrative Agent for the Pro Rata benefit of the applicable Lenders providing the applicable Loans.  Once repaid, whether such repayment is voluntary or required, no Loans may be reborrowed.

32

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

5.2.2.            Mandatory Prepayments.

(a)           Concurrently with any disposition of any Collateral, Borrowers shall prepay Loans in an amount equal to the Net Proceeds of such disposition;

(b)           Concurrently with the receipt of any proceeds of insurance or condemnation awards paid in respect of any Collateral, Borrowers shall prepay Loans in an amount equal to such proceeds, subject to Section 7.2.1; and

(c)           Concurrently with a Revolving Commitment Extension, Borrowers shall prepay that portion of the Obligations (inclusive of, for the avoidance of doubt, accrued interest) allocable to each Non-Renewing Lender, except to the extent such Non-Renewing Lender has assigned its rights and obligations in respect of such Obligations to an Eligible Assignee, it being understood that, notwithstanding Section 12.5, such prepayment shall be treated as a non-Pro Rata payment to such Lender.

(d)           On or prior to the tenth (10th) day after the Borrower Agent receives a notice from the Administrative Agent that the Borrowers are not in compliance with the covenant set forth in Section 10.3.3, the Borrowers shall prepay Loans in an amount necessary to comply with such covenant, calculated after giving effect to such prepayment and, upon the making of such prepayment during such ten-day period, any Default or Event of Default deemed to have occurred solely as a result of such noncompliance shall be deemed to have been cured.

5.2.3.            Optional Prepayments.  Borrowers may, at their option from time to time, prepay the Loans, which prepayment must be at least U.S.$5,000,000, plus any increment of U.S.$1,000,000 in excess thereof.  Borrowers shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent of an intended prepayment of Loans, which notice shall specify the amount of the prepayment, shall be irrevocable once given, shall be given at least 10 Business Days prior to the end of a month and shall be effective as of the first day of the next month.

5.2.4.            Application of Prepayments.  Each prepayment of Loans pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.2 shall be applied to the principal repayment installments thereof in inverse order of maturity.

5.3.         [Intentionally Omitted.]

5.4.         Payment of Other Obligations.  Obligations other than Loans, including Extraordinary Expenses, shall be paid by Borrowers as provided in the Loan Documents or, if no payment date is specified, on demand made to the applicable Borrowers.

5.5.         Marshaling; Payments Set Aside.  None of the Administrative Agent or Lenders shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Obligor or against any Obligations.  If any payment by or on behalf of Borrowers is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises a right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other Person, then to the extent of such recovery, the Obligation originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies relating thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred.

33

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

5.6.         Application and Allocation of Payments.

5.6.1.            Application.  Payments made by Borrowers hereunder shall be applied (a) first, as specifically required hereby; (b) second, to Obligations then due and owing; (c) third, to other Obligations specified by Borrowers; and (d) fourth, as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

5.6.2.            Post-Default Allocation.  Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, during an Event of Default, monies to be applied to the Obligations, whether arising from payments by Obligors, realization on Collateral, setoff or otherwise, shall be allocated as follows:

(a)           first, to all fees, indemnification, costs and expenses, including Extraordinary Expenses, owing to the Administrative Agent;

(b)           second, to all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent on Loans that a Defaulting Lender has failed to fund;

(c)           third, to all Obligations constituting fees, indemnification, costs or expenses owing to Lenders;

(d)           fourth, to all Obligations constituting interest;

(e)           fifth, to all Loans; and

(f)            last, to all remaining Obligations.

Amounts shall be applied to payment of each category of Obligations only after Full Payment of amounts payable from time to time under all preceding categories.  If amounts are insufficient to satisfy a category, they shall be paid ratably among outstanding Obligations in the category.  The allocations set forth in this Section are solely to determine the rights and priorities among Secured Parties, and may be changed by agreement of the affected Secured Parties, without the consent of any Obligor.  This Section is not for the benefit of or enforceable by any Obligor, and each Borrower irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any payments or Collateral proceeds subject to this Section.

5.6.3.            Erroneous Application. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any application of amounts made by it in good faith and, if any such application is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender or other Person to which such amount should have been made shall be to recover the amount from the Person that actually received it (and, if such amount was received by any Lender, such Lender hereby agrees to return it).

5.7.         [Intentionally Omitted.]

5.8.         Loan Account; Account Stated.

5.8.1.            Loan Account.  The Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual and customary practices an account or accounts (“Loan Account”) evidencing the Debt of Borrowers resulting from each Loan from time to time.  Any failure of the Administrative Agent to record anything in the Loan Account, or any error in doing so, shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrowers to pay any amount owing hereunder.

34

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

5.8.2.            Entries Binding.  Entries made in the Loan Account shall constitute presumptive evidence of the information contained therein.  If any information contained in the Loan Account is provided to or inspected by any Person, then such information shall be conclusive and binding on such Person for all purposes absent manifest error, except to the extent such Person notifies the Administrative Agent in writing within 30 days after receipt or inspection that specific information is subject to dispute.

5.9.         Taxes.

5.9.1.            Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Tax Payment.

(a)           All payments of Obligations by Obligors shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law.  If Applicable Law (as determined by the Administrative Agent in its good faith discretion) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Administrative Agent or an Obligor, then the Administrative Agent or such Obligor shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding based on information and documentation provided pursuant to Section 5.10.

(b)           If the Administrative Agent or any Obligor is required by the Code to withhold or deduct Taxes, including backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (i) the Administrative Agent shall pay the full amount that it determines is to be withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority pursuant to the Code, and (ii) to the extent the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Obligor shall be increased as necessary so that the Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

(c)           If the Administrative Agent or any Obligor is required by any Applicable Law other than the Code to withhold or deduct Taxes from any payment, then (i) the Administrative Agent or such Obligor, to the extent required by Applicable Law, shall timely pay the full amount to be withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority, and (ii) to the extent the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Obligor shall be increased as necessary so that the Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

5.9.2.            Payment of Other Taxes.  Without limiting the foregoing, Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the Administrative Agent’s option, timely reimburse the Administrative Agent for payment of, any Other Taxes.

5.9.3.            Tax Indemnification.

(a)           Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless, on a joint and several basis, each Recipient against any Indemnified Taxes (including those imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by a Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to a Recipient, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent against any amount that a Lender fails for any reason to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required pursuant to this Section.  Each Borrower shall make payment within ten (10) days after demand for any amount or liability payable under this Section.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrowers by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent),

35

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of any Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(b)           Each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless, on a several basis, (i) the Administrative Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent Borrowers have not already paid or reimbursed the Administrative Agent therefor and without limiting Borrowers’ obligation to do so), (ii) the Administrative Agent and Obligors, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to maintain a Participant register as required hereunder, and (iii) the Administrative Agent and Obligors, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or an Obligor in connection with any Obligations, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  Each Lender shall make payment within ten (10) days after demand for any amount or liability payable under this Section.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

5.9.4.            Evidence of Payments.  If the Administrative Agent or an Obligor pays any Taxes pursuant to this Section, then upon request, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to Borrower Agent or Borrower Agent shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, a copy of a receipt issued by the appropriate Governmental Authority evidencing the payment, a copy of any return required by Applicable Law to report the payment, or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or Borrower Agent, as applicable.

5.9.5.            Treatment of Certain Refunds.  Unless required by Applicable Law, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender, nor have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of a Lender.  If a Recipient determines in its discretion that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrowers or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay Borrowers an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrowers with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that Borrowers agree, upon request by the Recipient, to repay the amount paid over to Borrowers (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient if the Recipient is required to repay such refund to the Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Recipient shall be required to pay any amount to Borrowers if such payment would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than it would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any Recipient be required to make its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) available to any Obligor or other Person.

5.9.6.            Survival.  Each party’s obligations under Sections 5.9 and 5.10 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by or replacement of a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction, discharge or Full Payment of any Obligations.

5.10.       Lender Tax Information.

5.10.1.          Status of Lenders.  Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or

reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments of Obligations shall deliver to Borrowers and the Administrative Agent properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to enable them to determine whether such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, such documentation (other than documentation described in Sections 5.10.2(a), (b) and (d)) shall not be required if a Lender reasonably believes delivery of the documentation would subject it to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice its legal or commercial position.

5.10.2.          Documentation.  Without limiting the foregoing, if any Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(a)           Any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrowers and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request of Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9, certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax;

(b)           Any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrowers 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 hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request of Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i)            in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from or reduction of U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty, and (y) with respect to other payments under the Loan Documents, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from or reduction of U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(ii)           executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(iii)          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 in form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of a Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (“U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”), and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

(iv)          to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate in form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio

interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(c)           any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrowers 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 hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(d)           if payment of an Obligation to a Lender would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code), such Lender shall deliver to Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at the time(s) prescribed by law and otherwise as reasonably requested by Borrowers or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for them to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (d), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date hereof.

5.10.3.          Redelivery of Documentation.  If any form or certification previously delivered by a Lender pursuant to this Section expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, such Lender shall promptly update the form or certification or notify Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its inability to do so.

5.11.       Nature and Extent of Each Borrower’s Liability.

5.11.1.          Joint and Several Liability.  Each Borrower agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties the prompt payment and performance of, all Obligations and all agreements under the Loan Documents.  Each Borrower agrees that its guaranty obligations hereunder constitute a continuing guaranty of payment and not of collection, that such obligations shall not be discharged until Full Payment of the Obligations, and that such obligations are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of (a) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability, subordination or any future modification of, or change in, any Obligations or Loan Document, or any other document, instrument or agreement to which any Obligor is or may become a party or be bound; (b) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section) or any other Loan Document, or any waiver, consent or indulgence of any kind by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party with respect thereto; (c) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect a Lien or to preserve rights against, any security or guaranty for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party in respect thereof (including the release of any security or guaranty); (d) the insolvency of any Obligor; (e) any election by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party in an Insolvency Proceeding for the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; (f) any borrowing or grant of a Lien by any other Borrower, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; (g) the disallowance of any claims of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party against any Obligor for the repayment of any Obligations under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; or (h) any other action or

38

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, except Full Payment of all Obligations.

5.11.2.          Waivers.

(a)           Each Borrower expressly waives all rights that it may have now or in the future under any statute, at common law, in equity or otherwise, to compel the Administrative Agent or Secured Parties to marshal assets or to proceed against any Obligor, other Person or security for the payment or performance of any Obligations before, or as a condition to, proceeding against such Borrower.  Each Borrower waives all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor other than Full Payment of all Obligations and waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right to revoke any guaranty of any Obligations as long as it is a Borrower.  It is agreed among each Borrower, the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties that the provisions of this Section 5.11 are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents and that, but for such provisions, the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties would decline to make Loans.  Each Borrower acknowledges that its guaranty pursuant to this Section is necessary to the conduct and promotion of its business, and can be expected to benefit such business.

(b)           Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties may, in their discretion, pursue such rights and remedies as they deem appropriate, including realization upon Collateral by judicial foreclosure or non-judicial sale or enforcement, without affecting any rights and remedies under this Section 5.11.  If, in taking any action in connection with the exercise of any rights or remedies, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party shall forfeit any other rights or remedies, including the right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Borrower or other Person, whether because of any Applicable Laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or otherwise, each Borrower consents to such action and waives any claim based upon it, even if the action may result in loss of any rights of subrogation that any Borrower might otherwise have had.  Any election of remedies that results in denial or impairment of the right of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to seek a deficiency judgment against any Borrower shall not impair any Borrower’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations.  Each Borrower waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to any security for the Obligations, even though that election of remedies destroys such Borrower’s rights of subrogation against any other Person.  The Administrative Agent may bid all or a portion of the Obligations at any foreclosure, trustee’s or other sale, including any private sale, and the amount of such bid need not be paid by the Administrative Agent but shall be credited against the Obligations.  The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether the Administrative Agent or any other Person is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral, and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Section 5.11, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

5.11.3.          Extent of Liability; Contribution.

(a)           Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Borrower’s liability under this Section 5.11 shall be limited to the greater of (i) all amounts for which such Borrower is primarily liable, as described below, and (ii) such Borrower’s Allocable Amount.

(b)           If any Borrower makes a payment under this Section 5.11 of any Obligations (other than amounts for which such Borrower is primarily liable) (a “Guarantor Payment”) that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments previously or concurrently made by any other Borrower, exceeds the

39

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

amount that such Borrower would otherwise have paid if each Borrower had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payments in the same proportion that such Borrower’s Allocable Amount bore to the total Allocable Amounts of all Borrowers, then such Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and to be reimbursed by, each other Borrower for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment.  The “Allocable Amount” for any Borrower shall be the maximum amount that could then be recovered from such Borrower under this Section 5.11 without rendering such payment voidable under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state fraudulent transfer or conveyance act, or similar statute or common law.

(c)           Section 5.11.3(a) shall not limit the liability of any Borrower to pay or guarantee Loans made directly or indirectly to it (including Loans advanced hereunder to any other Person and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Borrower) and all accrued interest, fees, expenses and other related Obligations with respect thereto, for which such Borrower shall be primarily liable for all purposes hereunder.

5.11.4.          Joint Enterprise.  Each Borrower has requested that the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties make this credit facility available to Borrowers on a combined basis in order to finance Borrowers’ business most efficiently and economically.  Borrowers’ business is a mutual and collective enterprise, and the successful operation of each Borrower is dependent upon the successful performance of the integrated group.  Borrowers believe that consolidation of their credit facility will enhance the borrowing power of each Borrower and ease administration of the facility, all to their mutual advantage.  Borrowers acknowledge that the Administrative Agent’s and Secured Parties’ willingness to extend credit and to administer the Collateral of Borrowers on a combined basis hereunder is done solely as an accommodation to Borrowers and at Borrowers’ request.

5.11.5.          Subordination.  Each Borrower hereby subordinates any claims, including any rights at law or in equity to payment, subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or setoff, that it may have at any time against any other Obligor, howsoever arising, to the Full Payment of all Obligations.

SECTION 6.        CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

(h)           The Administrative Agent shall have received copies of policies or certificates of insurance for the insurance policies carried by Borrowers, all in compliance with the Loan Documents.

(i)            No material adverse change in the business, assets, Properties, liabilities, operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Obligors, taken as a whole, or in the quality, quantity or value of any Collateral (it being understood that a change in the quality, quantity or value of any Collateral in the Ordinary Course of Business shall not be deemed to be a material adverse change) shall have occurred since August 3, 2013.

(c)           All applicable conditions precedent in any other Loan Document shall be satisfied.

7.2.         General Provisions.

7.2.1.            Insurance of Collateral; Condemnation Proceeds.

(a)           Each Borrower shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to, maintain insurance with respect to the Collateral, covering casualty, hazard, theft, malicious mischief, flood and other risks, in amounts, with endorsements and with insurers (with a Best rating of at least A+, unless otherwise approved by the Administrative Agent in its discretion) satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.  All proceeds with respect to Collateral under each policy shall be payable to the Administrative Agent.  From time to time upon request, Borrowers shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to, deliver to the Administrative Agent the originals or certified copies of its insurance policies and updated flood plain searches.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall agree otherwise, each policy shall include satisfactory endorsements (i) showing the Administrative Agent as additional loss payee; (ii) requiring 30 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent in the event of cancellation of the policy for any reason whatsoever; and (iii) specifying that the interest of the Administrative Agent shall not be impaired or invalidated by any act or neglect of any Obligor or the owner of the Property, nor by the occupation of the premises for purposes more hazardous than are permitted by the policy.  If any Obligor fails to provide and pay for any insurance, the Administrative Agent may, at its option, but shall not be required to, procure the insurance and charge Borrowers therefor.  Each Borrower agrees to deliver, and shall cause each other Obligor to deliver, to the Administrative Agent, promptly as rendered, copies of all reports made to insurance companies.  While no Event of Default exists, Borrowers may settle, adjust or compromise any insurance claim, as long as the proceeds of any insurance with respect to Collateral are delivered to the Administrative Agent.  If an Event of Default exists, only the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to settle, adjust and compromise such claims regarding Collateral.

SECTION 8.        [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

SECTION 9.        REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

9.1.         General Representations and Warranties.  To induce the Administrative Agent and Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make available the Commitments and Loans, Borrowers represent and warrant that:

9.1.1.            Organization and Qualification.  Each Borrower and Subsidiary is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization.  Each Borrower and Subsidiary is duly qualified, authorized to do business and in good standing as a foreign corporation, partnership or limited liability company, as applicable, in each jurisdiction where failure to be so qualified could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.1.2.            Power and Authority.  Each Obligor is duly authorized to execute, deliver and perform its Loan Documents.  The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been

43

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

duly authorized by all necessary action, and do not (a) require any consent or approval of any holders of Equity Interests of any Obligor, other than those already obtained; (b) contravene the Organic Documents of any Obligor; (c) violate or cause a default under any Applicable Law or Material Contract; or (d) result in or require the imposition of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any Property of any Obligor.

9.1.3.            Enforceability.  Each Loan Document is a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Obligor party thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity.

9.1.4.            Capital Structure.  Schedule 9.1.4 shows, as of the Closing Date, for each Borrower and Subsidiary, its name, its jurisdiction of organization, its authorized and issued Equity Interests, the holders of its Equity Interests (other than with respect to UNFI), and all agreements binding on such holders with respect to their Equity Interests.  Except as disclosed on Schedule 9.1.4, in the five years preceding the Closing Date, no Borrower or Subsidiary has acquired all or substantially all of the assets of any other Person nor been the surviving entity in a merger, amalgamation or combination.  Each Borrower has good title to its Equity Interests in its Subsidiaries, and all such Equity Interests are duly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.  There are no outstanding purchase options, warrants, subscription rights, agreements to issue or sell, convertible interests, phantom rights or powers of attorney relating to Equity Interests of any Borrower (other than UNFI) or any Subsidiary.

9.1.5.            Title to Properties; Priority of Liens.  Each Borrower and Subsidiary has good and marketable title to (or valid leasehold interests in) all of its Real Estate, and good title to all of its material personal Property, including all Property reflected in any financial statements delivered to Administrative Agent or Lenders, in each case free of Liens except Permitted Liens.  Each Borrower and Subsidiary has paid and discharged all lawful claims that, if unpaid, could become a Lien on its Properties, other than Permitted Liens.  All Liens of the Administrative Agent in the Collateral are duly perfected, first priority Liens, subject only to Permitted Liens that are expressly allowed to have priority over the Administrative Agent’s Liens.

9.1.6.            [Intentionally Omitted.]

9.1.7.            Financial Statements.  The consolidated balance sheets, and related statements of income, cash flow and shareholder’s equity, of Borrowers and Subsidiaries that have been and are hereafter delivered to Administrative Agent and Lenders, are prepared in accordance with GAAP, and at the time of delivery fairly present the financial positions and results of operations of Borrowers and Subsidiaries at the dates and for the periods indicated (in the case of interim statements, subject to year-end adjustments and the absence of footnotes).  All projections delivered from time to time to Administrative Agent and Lenders have been prepared in good faith, based on assumptions believed by the management of Borrowers to be reasonable in light of the circumstances at the time of preparation.  Since August [3, 2013,]1, 2015, there has been no change in the condition, financial or otherwise, of any Borrower or Subsidiary that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No financial statement at any time delivered to Administrative Agent or Lenders contains any untrue statement of a material fact, nor fails to disclose any material fact necessary to make such statement not materially misleading, in light of the circumstances under which they were made.  The Borrowers and the other Obligors are Solvent.

9.1.8.            Surety Obligations.  No Borrower or Subsidiary is obligated as surety or indemnitor under any bond or other contract that assures payment or performance of any obligation of any other Person, except as permitted hereunder.

(b)           Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, each Secured Party, as a principal, specifically appoints Administrative Agent as such Secured Party’s agent for purposes of acting as beneficiary of each Mortgage consisting of a deed of trust on Real Estate in the State of Washington (each, a “Washington Deed of Trust”), for itself and on behalf of each Secured Party, and taking all actions that such Secured Party could take in such capacity were such Secured Party itself named directly as a beneficiary of each Washington Deed of Trust (including but not limited to appointing a successor trustee thereunder, directing the trustee thereof to exercise the power of sale thereunder, or foreclosing such Washington Deed of Trust judicially as a mortgage).  Each Secured Party further agrees to enter into such further documents, instruments and agreements as Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to more fully carry out the purpose and intent of the appointment provided for in this Section for the mutual benefit of the Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent.

12.1.2.          Duties.  The title of “Administrative Agent” is used solely as a matter of market custom and the duties of the Administrative Agent are administrative in nature only.  The Administrative Agent has no duties except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, and in no event does the Administrative Agent have any agency, fiduciary or implied duty to or relationship with any Secured Party or other Person by reason of any Loan Document or related transaction.  The conferral upon the Administrative Agent of any right shall not imply a duty to exercise such right, unless instructed to do so by Lenders in accordance with this Agreement.

12.1.3.          Agent Professionals.  The Administrative Agent may perform its duties through agents and employees.  The Administrative Agent may consult with and employ Agent Professionals, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by an Agent Professional.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents, employees or Agent Professionals selected by it with reasonable care.

12.1.4.          Instructions of Required Lenders.  The rights and remedies conferred upon the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents may be exercised without the necessity of joinder of any other party, unless required by Applicable Law.  In determining compliance with a condition for any action hereunder, including satisfaction of any condition in Section 6, the Administrative Agent may presume that the condition is satisfactory to a Secured Party unless the Administrative Agent has received notice to the contrary from such Secured Party before the Administrative Agent takes the action. The Administrative Agent may request instructions from Required Lenders or other Secured Parties (or such other number of Lenders as may be required) with respect to any act (including the failure to act) in connection with any Loan Documents or Collateral, and may seek assurances to its satisfaction from Secured Parties of their indemnification obligations against Claims that could be incurred by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent may refrain from any act until it has received such instructions or assurances, and shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining.  Instructions of Required Lenders (or such other number of Lenders as may be required) shall be binding upon all Secured Parties, and no Secured Party shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting pursuant to instructions of Required Lenders.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, instructions by and consent of specific parties shall be required to the extent provided in Section 14.1.1.  In no event shall the Administrative Agent be required to take any action that it determines in its discretion is contrary to Applicable Law or any Loan Documents or could subject any Agent Indemnitee to liability.

12.2.       Agreements Regarding Collateral and Borrower Materials.

12.2.1.          Releases; Care of Collateral.  Secured Parties authorize the Administrative Agent (a) to release any Lien with respect to any Collateral (i) upon Full Payment of the Obligations; (ii)

that is the subject of an Asset Disposition that the Borrowers certify in writing to Administrative Agent is a Permitted Collateral Disposition or a Lien that the Borrowers certify is a Permitted Lien entitled to priority over the Administrative Agent’s Liens (and the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate without further inquiry); (iii) that does not constitute a material part of the Collateral; or (iv) subject to Section 14.1, with the consent of all Required Lenders; provided that such releases permitted pursuant to clauses (ii) through (iv) above shall be subject at all times to the Borrowers’ compliance with Section 10.3.3 on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such disposition, and (b) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents if (i) such Person becomes an Immaterial Subsidiary, or (ii) such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction expressly permitted under the Loan Documents.  Secured Parties authorize the Administrative Agent to subordinate its Liens to any Purchase Money Lien or other Lien entitled to priority hereunder.  The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to assure that any Collateral exists or is owned by an Obligor, or is cared for, protected or insured, nor to assure that the Administrative Agent’s Liens have been properly created, perfected or enforced, or are entitled to any particular priority, nor to exercise any duty of care with respect to any Collateral.

12.2.2.          Possession of Collateral.  The Administrative Agent and Secured Parties appoint each Lender as agent (for the benefit of Secured Parties) for the purpose of perfecting Liens in any Collateral held or controlled by such Lender, to the extent such Liens are perfected by possession or control.  If any Lender obtains possession or control of any Collateral, it shall notify Administrative Agent thereof and, promptly upon Administrative Agent’s request, deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with it in accordance with Administrative Agent’s instructions.

12.2.3.          Reports.  Administrative Agent shall promptly provide to Lenders, when complete, any inspection, appraisal or other report prepared for the Administrative Agent with respect to any Obligor or Collateral (“Report”).  Reports and other Borrower Materials may be made available to Lenders by providing access to them on the Platform, but Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for system failures or access issues that may occur from time to time.  Each Lender agrees (a) that Reports are not intended to be comprehensive audits, examinations or appraisals, and that the Administrative Agent or any other Person performing an audit, examination or appraisal will inspect only specific information regarding the Obligations or Collateral and will rely significantly upon Borrowers’ books, records and representations; (b) that Administrative Agent makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any Borrower Materials and shall not be liable for any information contained in or omitted from any Borrower Materials, including any Report; and (c) to keep all Borrower Materials confidential and strictly for such Lender’s internal use, not to distribute any Report or other Borrower Materials (or the contents thereof) to any Person (except to such Lender’s Participants, attorneys, accountants and to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Lender or its Affiliates), and to use all Borrower Materials solely for administration of the Obligations.  Each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and any other Person preparing a Report from any action such Lender may take as a result of or any conclusion it may draw from any Borrower Materials, as well as from any Claims arising as a direct or indirect result of Administrative Agent furnishing same to such Lender, via the Platform or otherwise.

12.3.       Reliance By the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any certification, notice or other communication (including those by telephone, telex, telegram, telecopy or e-mail) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person.  The Administrative Agent shall have a reasonable and practicable amount of time to act upon any instruction, notice or other communication under any Loan Document, and shall not be liable for any delay in acting.

12.4.       Action Upon Default.  The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, or of any failure to satisfy any conditions in Section 6, unless it has

62

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

received written notice from a Borrower or Required Lenders specifying the occurrence and nature thereof.  If any Lender acquires knowledge of a Default, Event of Default or failure of such conditions, it shall promptly notify Administrative Agent and the other Lenders thereof in writing.  Each Secured Party agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any Loan Documents or with the written consent of Administrative Agent and Required Lenders, it will not take any Enforcement Action, accelerate Obligations, or exercise any right that it might otherwise have under Applicable Law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC sales or other similar dispositions of Collateral or to assert any rights relating to any Collateral.

12.5.       Ratable Sharing.  If any Lender shall obtain any payment or reduction of any Obligation, whether through setoff or otherwise, in excess of its share of such Obligation, determined on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.6.2, as applicable, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders such participations in the affected Obligation as are necessary to cause the purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or reduction on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.6.2, as applicable.  If any of such payment or reduction is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Defaulting Lender obtains a payment or reduction of any Obligation, it shall immediately turn over the amount thereof to the Administrative Agent for application under Section 4.2.2 and it shall provide a written statement to the Administrative Agent describing the Obligation affected by such payment or reduction.

12.6.       Indemnification.  EACH SECURED PARTY SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS AGENT INDEMNITEES, TO THE EXTENT NOT REIMBURSED BY OBLIGORS, ON A PRO RATA BASIS, AGAINST ALL CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY SUCH INDEMNITEE, PROVIDED THAT ANY CLAIM AGAINST AN AGENT INDEMNITEE RELATES TO OR ARISES FROM ITS ACTING AS OR FOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT (IN THE CAPACITY OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT).  In no event shall any Lender have any obligation to indemnify or hold harmless an Agent Indemnitee with respect to a Claim that is determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.  In the Administrative Agent’s discretion, it may reserve for any Claims made against an Agent Indemnitee, and may satisfy any judgment, order or settlement relating thereto, from proceeds of Collateral prior to making any distribution of Collateral proceeds to Secured Parties.  If the Administrative Agent is sued by any receiver, bankruptcy trustee, debtor-in-possession or other Person for any alleged preference or fraudulent transfer, then any monies paid by the Administrative Agent in settlement or satisfaction of such proceeding, together with all interest, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in the defense of same, shall be promptly reimbursed to the Administrative Agent by each Secured Party to the extent of its Pro Rata share.

12.7.       Limitation on Responsibilities of the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any Secured Party for any action taken or omitted to be taken under the Loan Documents, except for losses directly and solely caused by the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.  The Administrative Agent assumes no responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by any Obligor, Lender or other Secured Party of any obligations under the Loan Documents.  The Administrative Agent makes no express or implied representation, warranty or guarantee to Secured Parties with respect to any Obligations, Collateral, Liens, Loan Documents or Obligor.  No Agent Indemnitee shall be responsible to Secured Parties for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in any Loan Documents or Borrower Materials; the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any Loan Documents; the genuineness, enforceability, collectibility, value, sufficiency, location or existence of any Collateral, or the validity, extent, perfection or priority of any Lien therein; the validity, enforceability or collectibility of any Obligations; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Obligor.  No Agent Indemnitee shall have any obligation to any Secured Party to

63

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

ascertain or inquire into the existence of any Default or Event of Default, the observance by any Obligor of any terms of the Loan Documents, or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in any Loan Documents.

12.8.       Successor Administrative Agent.

12.8.1.          Resignation; Successor Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving at least 30 days’ written notice thereof to the Lenders and Borrowers.  Upon receipt of such notice, Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be (a) a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender; or (b) a financial institution reasonably acceptable to Required Lenders and (provided no Default or Event of Default exists) Borrowers.  If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative Agent, then Administrative Agent may appoint a successor agent that is a financial institution reasonably acceptable to it, which shall be a Lender unless no Lender accepts the role or in the absence of such appointment, Required Lenders shall on such date assume all rights and duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder.  Upon acceptance by a successor Administrative Agent of its appointment hereunder, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent without further act, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder but shall continue to have all rights and protections under the Loan Documents with respect to actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while Administrative Agent, including the benefits of the indemnification set forth in Sections 12.6 and 14.2.  Notwithstanding the Administrative Agent’s resignation, the provisions of this Section 12 shall continue in effect for its benefit with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while Administrative Agent.  Any successor to Bank of America by merger, amalgamation or acquisition of stock or this loan shall continue to be Administrative Agent hereunder without further act on the part of any Secured Party or Obligor.

If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Borrower Agent and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent, and, in consultation with the Borrower Agent, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

12.8.2.          Co-Collateral Agent.  If necessary or appropriate under Applicable Law, the Administrative Agent may appoint a Person to serve as a co-collateral agent or separate collateral agent under any Loan Document.  Each right and remedy intended to be available to the Administrative Agent under such Loan Document shall also be vested in such agent.  Secured Parties shall execute and deliver any instrument or agreement that the Administrative Agent may request to effect such appointment.  If the agent shall die, dissolve, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, then all the rights and remedies of such agent, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent until appointment of a new agent.

12.9.       Due Diligence and Non-Reliance.  Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lenders, and based upon such documents, information and analyses as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of each Obligor and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to fund Loans hereunder.  Each Secured Party has made such inquiries as it feels necessary concerning the Loan Documents, Collateral and Obligors.  Each Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Secured Parties have made no representations or warranties concerning any Obligor, any Collateral or the legality, validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any Loan Documents or Obligations.  Each Secured Party will, independently and without

64

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

reliance upon any other Secured Party, and based upon such financial statements, documents and information as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make and rely upon its own credit decisions in making Loans, and in taking or refraining from any action under any Loan Documents.  Except for notices, reports and other information expressly requested by a Lender, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Secured Party with any notices, reports or certificates furnished to the Administrative Agent by any Obligor or any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition, business or Properties of any Obligor (or any of its Affiliates) which may come into possession of the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates.

12.10.     Remittance of Payments and Collections.

12.10.1.        Remittances Generally.  All payments by any Lender to the Administrative Agent shall be made by the time and on the day set forth in this Agreement, in immediately available funds.  If no time for payment is specified or if payment is due on demand by the Administrative Agent and request for payment is made by the Administrative Agent by 11:00 a.m. on a Business Day, payment shall be made by Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. on such day, and if request is made after 11:00 a.m., then payment shall be made by 11:00 a.m. on the next Business Day.  Payment by the Administrative Agent to any Secured Party shall be made by wire transfer, in the type of funds received by the Administrative Agent.  Any such payment shall be subject to the Administrative Agent’s right of offset for any amounts due from such payee under the Loan Documents.

12.10.2.        Failure to Pay.  If any Secured Party fails to pay any amount when due by it to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms hereof, such amount shall bear interest from the due date until paid in full at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate or the rate determined by the Administrative Agent as customary for interbank compensation for two Business Days and thereafter at the Default Rate for Base Rate Loans.  In no event shall Borrowers be entitled to receive credit for any interest paid by a Secured Party to the Administrative Agent, nor shall any Defaulting Lender be entitled to interest on any amounts held by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 4.2.

12.10.3.        Recovery of Payments.  If the Administrative Agent pays any amount to a Secured Party in the expectation that a related payment will be received by the Administrative Agent from an Obligor and such related payment is not received, then the Administrative Agent may recover such amount from each Secured Party that received it.  If the Administrative Agent determines that an amount received by it must be returned or paid to an Obligor or other Person pursuant to Applicable Law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term of any Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to distribute such amount to any Secured Party.  If any amounts received and applied by the Administrative Agent to any Obligations are later required to be returned by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Applicable Law, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the amounts required to be returned.

12.11.     Individual Capacities.  As a Lender, Bank of America shall have the same rights and remedies under the Loan Documents as any other Lender and the terms “Lenders”, “Required Lenders” or any similar term shall include Bank of America in its capacity as a Lender.  The Administrative Agent, Lenders and their Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, provide Bank Products to, act as financial or other advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Obligors and their Affiliates, as if they were not the Administrative Agent or Lenders hereunder, without any duty to account therefor to any Secured Party.  In their individual capacities, the Administrative Agent, Lenders and their Affiliates may receive information regarding Obligors and their Affiliates (including information subject to confidentiality obligations), and shall have no obligation to provide such information to any Secured Party.

12.12.     [Intentionally Omitted.]

12.13.     [Intentionally Omitted.]

12.14.     No Third Party Beneficiaries.  This Section 12 is an agreement solely among Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent, and shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations.  This Section 12 does not confer any rights or benefits upon Borrowers or any other Person.  As between Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, any action that the Administrative Agent may take under any Loan Documents or with respect to any Obligations shall be conclusively presumed to have been authorized and directed by Secured Parties.

SECTION 13.      BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS

13.1.       Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, Lenders, Secured Parties, and their respective successors and assigns, except that (a) no Borrower shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under any Loan Documents; and (b) any assignment by a Lender must be made in compliance with Section 13.3.  The Administrative Agent may treat the Person which made any Loan as the owner thereof for all purposes until such Person makes an assignment in accordance with Section 13.3.  Any authorization or consent of a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent transferee or assignee of such Lender.

13.2.       Participations.

13.2.1.          Permitted Participants; Effect.  Subject to Section 13.3.3, any Lender may sell to a financial institution or other entity (“Participant”) a participating interest in the rights and obligations of such Lender under any Loan Documents.  Despite any sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the holder of its Loans and Commitments for all purposes, all amounts payable by Borrowers shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the Loan Documents.  Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters under the Loan Documents, and the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall not have any obligation or liability to any such Participant.  A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.9 unless Borrowers agree otherwise in writing.

13.2.2.          Voting Rights.  Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Documents other than that which forgives principal, interest or fees, reduces the stated interest rate or fees payable with respect to any Loan or Commitment in which such Participant has an interest, postpones the Termination Date or any date fixed for any regularly scheduled payment of principal, interest or fees on such Loan or Commitment, or releases any Borrower, Guarantor or substantially all Collateral.

13.2.3.          Participant Register.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrowers (solely for tax purposes), maintain a register in which it enters the Participant’s name, address and interest in Commitments and Loans (and stated interest).  Entries in the register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person recorded in the register as the owner of the participation for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  No Lender shall have an obligation to disclose any information in such register except to the extent necessary to establish that a Participant’s interest is in registered form under the Code.

13.2.4.          Benefit of Setoff.  Borrowers agree that each Participant shall have a right of setoff in respect of its participating interest to the same extent as if such interest were owing directly to a

66

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

Lender, and each Lender shall also retain the right of setoff with respect to any participating interests sold by it.  By exercising any right of setoff, a Participant agrees to share with Lenders all amounts received through its setoff, in accordance with Section 12.5 as if such Participant were a Lender.

13.3.       Assignments.

13.3.1.          Permitted Assignments.  A Lender may assign to an Eligible Assignee any of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, as long as (a) each assignment is of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of the transferor Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents and, in the case of a partial assignment, is in a minimum principal amount of U.S.$10,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent in its discretion) and integral multiples of U.S.$5,000,000 in excess of that amount; (b) except in the case of an assignment in whole of a Lender’s rights and obligations, the aggregate amount of Commitments retained by the transferor Lender is at least U.S.$10,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent in its discretion); and (c) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording, an Assignment and Acceptance.  Nothing herein shall limit the right of a Lender to pledge or assign any rights under the Loan Documents to secure obligations of such Lender, including a pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from its obligations hereunder nor substitute the pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

13.3.2.          Effect; Effective Date.  Upon delivery to Administrative Agent of an assignment notice in the form of Exhibit C and a processing fee of U.S.$3,500 (unless otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent in its discretion), the assignment shall become effective as specified in the notice, if it complies with this Section 13.3.  From such effective date, the Eligible Assignee shall for all purposes be a Lender under the Loan Documents, and shall have all rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder.  Upon consummation of an assignment, the transferor Lender, Administrative Agent and Borrowers shall make appropriate arrangements for issuance of a replacement and/or new Note, as applicable.  The transferee Lender shall comply with Section 5.10 and deliver, upon request, an administrative questionnaire satisfactory to Administrative Agent.

13.3.3.          Certain Assignees.  No assignment or participation may be made to a Borrower, Affiliate of a Borrower, Defaulting Lender or natural person.  Any assignment by a Defaulting Lender shall be effective only upon payment by the Eligible Assignee or Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent of an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution (through direct payment, purchases of participations, or other compensating actions as the Administrative Agent deems appropriate), to satisfy all funding and payment liabilities then owing by the Defaulting Lender hereunder.  If an assignment by a Defaulting Lender shall become effective under Applicable Law for any reason without compliance with the foregoing sentence, then the assignee shall be deemed a Defaulting Lender for all purposes until such compliance occurs.

13.3.4.          Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrowers (solely for tax purposes), shall maintain (a) a copy (or electronic equivalent) of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it, and (b) a register for recordation of the names, addresses, and Commitments of, and the Loans and interest owing to, each Lender.  Entries in the register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall treat each lender recorded in such register as a Lender for all purposes under the Loan Documents, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  The Administrative Agent may choose to show only one Borrower as the borrower in the register, without any effect on the liability of any Obligor with respect to the Obligations.  The register shall be available for inspection by Borrowers or any Lender, from time to time upon reasonable notice.

67

13.4.       Replacement of Certain Lenders.  If (a) any Lender gives a notice under Section 3.5 or requests compensation under Section 3.7, or if any Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.9 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 3.8, or (b) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, a Non-Consenting Lender or a Non-Renewing Lender, then the Borrower Agent may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 13.3), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 3.7 and Section 5.9) and obligations under this Agreement and the related 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:

(i)            the Borrowers shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing fee (if any) specified in Section 13.3.2;

(ii)           such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.9) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii)          in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.7 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.9, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(iv)          such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law; and

(v)           in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower Agent to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

SECTION 14.      MISCELLANEOUS

14.1.       Consents, Amendments and Waivers.

14.1.1.          Amendment.  No modification of any Loan Document, including any extension or amendment of a Loan Document or any waiver of a Default or Event of Default, shall be effective without the prior written agreement of Administrative Agent (with the consent of Required Lenders) and each Obligor party to such Loan Document; provided, however, that

(a)           without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, no modification shall be effective with respect to any provision in a Loan Document that relates to any rights, duties or discretion of the Administrative Agent;

(b)           without the prior written consent of each affected Lender, including a Defaulting Lender, no modification shall be effective that would (i) increase the Commitment of such Lender; (ii)

68

NOTE: A request for confidential treatment has been made with respect to the portions of the following document that are marked [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. The redacted portions have been filed separately with the SEC.

reduce the amount of, or waive or delay payment of, any principal, interest or fees payable to such Lender (except as provided in Section 4.2); provided, however, that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate”; (iii) extend the Termination Date; (iv) modify or waive any mandatory prepayment required under Section 5.2.2(c); or (v) amend this clause (b); and

(c)           without the prior written consent of all Lenders (except any Defaulting Lender), no modification shall be effective that would (i) alter Sections 5.6.2, 10.3.3 or 14.1.1 or the proviso set forth in Section 12.2.1(a); (ii) amend the definitions of (A) Pro Rata or (B) Required Lenders; (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral; (iv) release any portion of the Collateral if such release would result in the Borrowers’ failure to comply with the covenant set forth in Section 10.3.3; (v) except in connection with a merger, disposition or similar transaction expressly permitted hereby, release any Obligor from liability for any Obligations; or (vi) amend provisions herein relating to the Pro Rata treatment of (x) payments or (y) reductions in the Commitments.

14.1.2.          Limitations.  The agreement of Borrowers shall not be necessary to the effectiveness of any modification of a Loan Document that deals solely with the rights and duties of Lenders and the Administrative Agent as among themselves.  Only the consent of the parties to the Fee Letter shall be required for any modification of such agreement.  Any waiver or consent granted by the Administrative Agent or Lenders hereunder shall be effective only if in writing and only for the matter specified.

14.1.3.          Payment for Consents.  No Borrower will, directly or indirectly, pay any remuneration or other thing of value, whether by way of additional interest, fee or otherwise, to any Lender (in its capacity as a Lender hereunder) as consideration for agreement by such Lender with any modification of any Loan Documents, unless such remuneration or value is concurrently paid, on the same terms, on a Pro Rata basis to all Lenders providing their consent.

14.2.       Indemnity.  EACH BORROWER SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE INDEMNITEES AGAINST ANY CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE, INCLUDING CLAIMS ASSERTED BY ANY OBLIGOR OR OTHER PERSON OR ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF AN INDEMNITEE.  In no event shall any party to a Loan Document have any obligation thereunder to indemnify or hold harmless an Indemnitee with respect to a Claim that is determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.  For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 14.2 shall not apply to any Claim on account of Taxes governed by (or excluded from the application of) Sections 3.7 or 5.9.

14.3.       Notices and Communications.

14.3.1.          Notice Address.  Subject to Section 4.1.4, all notices and other communications by or to a party hereto shall be in writing and shall be given to any Borrower, at Borrower Agent’s address shown on the signature pages hereof, and to any other Person at its address shown on the signature pages hereof (or, in the case of a Person who becomes a Lender after the Closing Date, at the address shown on its Assignment and Acceptance), or at such other address as a party may hereafter specify by notice in accordance with this Section 14.3.  Each such notice or other communication shall be effective only (a) if given by facsimile transmission, when transmitted to the applicable facsimile number, if confirmation of receipt is received; (b) if given by mail, three Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mail, with first-class postage pre-paid, addressed to the applicable address; or (c) if given by personal delivery, when duly delivered to the notice address with receipt acknowledged.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.1.4, 3.1.2, 4.1.1 or 5.2.3 shall be effective until actually received by the individual to whose attention at the Administrative Agent such notice is required to

expenses (including Extraordinary Expenses) of the Administrative Agent under this Section shall be reimbursed to the Administrative Agent by Borrowers, on demand, with interest from the date incurred until paid in full, at the Default Rate applicable to Base Rate Loans.  Any payment made or action taken by the Administrative Agent under this Section shall be without prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default or to exercise any other rights or remedies under the Loan Documents.

14.5.       Credit Inquiries.  The Administrative Agent and Lenders may (but shall have no obligation) to respond to usual and customary credit inquiries from third parties concerning any Obligor or Subsidiary.

14.6.       Severability.  Wherever possible, each provision of the Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such manner as to be valid under Applicable Law.  If any provision is found to be invalid under Applicable Law, it shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity and the remaining provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect.

14.7.       Cumulative Effect; Conflict of Terms.  The provisions of the Loan Documents are cumulative.  The parties acknowledge that the Loan Documents may use several limitations or measurements to regulate similar matters, and they agree that these are cumulative and that each must be performed as provided.  Except as otherwise provided in another Loan Document (by specific reference to the applicable provision of this Agreement), if any provision contained herein is in direct conflict with any provision in another Loan Document, the provision herein shall govern and control.

14.8.       Counterparts; Execution.  Any Loan Document may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  This Agreement shall become effective when Administrative Agent has received counterparts bearing the signatures of all parties hereto.  Delivery of a signature page of any Loan Document by telecopy or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of such agreement.  Any electronic signature, contract formation on an electronic platform and electronic record-keeping shall have the same legal validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based recordkeeping system to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any similar state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.  Upon request by the Administrative Agent, any electronic signature or delivery shall be promptly followed by a manually executed or paper document.

14.9.       Time is of the Essence.  Except as otherwise expressly provided to the contrary herein or in another Loan Document, time is of the essence with respect to all Loan Documents and Obligations.

14.10.     Relationship with Lenders.  The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitments of any other Lender.  Amounts payable hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt.  It shall not be necessary for the Administrative Agent or any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purposes.  Nothing in this Agreement and no action of the Administrative Agent, Lenders or any other Secured Party pursuant to the Loan Documents or otherwise shall be deemed to constitute the Administrative Agent and any Secured Party to be a partnership, association, joint venture or any other kind of entity, nor to constitute control of any Obligor.

14.11.     No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.  In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated by any Loan Document, Borrowers acknowledge and agree that (a)(i) this credit facility and any related arranging or other services by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any of their Affiliates or any arranger are arm’s-length commercial transactions between Borrowers and their Affiliates,

14.12.     Confidentiality.  Each of the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall maintain the confidentiality of all Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates, and to its and their partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (provided such Persons are informed of the confidential nature of the Information and instructed to keep it confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it or its Affiliates; (c) to the extent required by Applicable Law or by any subpoena or other legal process; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with any action or proceeding, or other exercise of rights or remedies, relating to any Loan Documents or Obligations; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as this Section, to any Transferee or any actual or prospective party (or its advisors) to any Bank Product or to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to an Obligor or Obligor’s obligations; (g) with the consent of Borrower Agent; [or ](h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Borrowers, or (i) on a confidential basis to a provider of a Platform.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and Lenders may publish or disseminate general information concerning this credit facility for league table, tombstone and advertising purposes, and may use Borrowers’ logos, trademarks or product photographs in advertising materials that refer to this credit facility.  As used herein, “Information” means all information received from an Obligor or Subsidiary relating to it or its business that is identified as confidential when delivered.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information pursuant to this Section shall be deemed to have complied if it exercises a degree of care similar to that which it accords its own confidential information.  Each of the Administrative Agent and Lenders acknowledges that (i) Information may include material non-public information; (ii) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information; and (iii) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with Applicable Law.

14.13.     [Intentionally Omitted.]

14.16.     Waivers by Borrowers.  To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Borrower waives (a) the right to trial by jury (which the Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby also waives) in any proceeding or dispute of any kind relating in any way to any Loan Documents, Obligations or Collateral; (b) presentment, demand, protest, notice of presentment, default, non-payment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any commercial paper, accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper and guaranties at any time held by the Administrative Agent on which a Borrower may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies anything the Administrative Agent may do in this regard; (c) notice prior to taking possession or control of any Collateral; (d) any bond or security that might be required by a court prior to allowing the Administrative Agent to exercise any rights or remedies; (e) the benefit of all valuation, appraisement and exemption laws; (f) any claim against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) in any way relating to any Enforcement Action, Obligations, Loan Documents or transactions relating thereto; and (g) notice of acceptance hereof.  Each Borrower acknowledges that the foregoing waivers are a material inducement to the Administrative Agent and Lenders entering into this Agreement and that they are relying upon the foregoing in their dealings with Borrowers.  Each Borrower has reviewed the foregoing waivers with its legal counsel and has knowingly and voluntarily waived its jury trial and other rights following consultation with legal counsel.  In the event of litigation, this Agreement may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court.

14.17.     Patriot Act Notice.  The Administrative Agent and Lenders hereby notify Borrowers that pursuant to the Patriot Act, the Administrative Agent and Lenders are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, including its legal name, address, tax ID number and other information that will allow the Administrative Agent and Lenders to identify it in accordance with the Patriot Act.  The Administrative Agent and Lenders will also require information regarding each personal guarantor, if any, and may require information regarding Borrowers’ management and owners, such as legal name, address, social security number and date of birth.  The Borrowers shall, promptly following a request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act.

14.18.     NO ORAL AGREEMENT  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.  THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.
