Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, for purposes of calculations made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, GAAP will be deemed to treat leases that would have been classified as operating leases in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America as in effect on December 31, 2013 in a manner consistent with the treatment of such leases under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America as in effect on December 31, 2013, notwithstanding any modifications or interpretive changes thereto that may occur thereafter.

    -56-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


Class (e.g., a “U.S. Revolving Borrowing”) or by Type (e.g., a “SOFR Borrowing”) or by Class and Type (e.g., a “SOFR U.S. Revolving Borrowing”).

Any failure by the Applicable Issuing Bank to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a refusal by such Issuing Bank to issue the requested Letters of Credit in such requested currency at that time. If the Administrative Agent and the Applicable Issuing Bank consent to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrowers and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency hereunder for purposes of any Letter of Credit issuances. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to any request for an additional currency under this Section 1.05, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Borrowers.

SECTION 2.02    Loans
.  
. (a)    Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Applicable Lenders ratably in accordance with their Applicable Pro Rata Percentages of the applicable Facility; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). Except for Loans deemed made pursuant to Section 2.02(g), the Loans comprising any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (i) in the case of ABR Loans or U.S. Base Rate Loans, an integral multiple of U.S.$100,000 and in a minimum amount of U.S.$1,000,000, (ii) in case of SOFR Loans, an integral multiple of U.S.$1,000,000 and in a minimum amount of U.S.$3,000,000, (iii) in case of Canadian dollar-denominated Term CORRA Loans, an integral multiple of C$100,000 and in a minimum amount of C$1,000,000, (iv) in the case of Canadian dollar-denominated Loans (other than Term CORRA Loans), an integral multiple of C$100,000 and in a minimum amount of C$1,000,000, (v) in the case of Australian dollar-denominated Loans, an integral multiple of AUD$100,000 and in a minimum amount of AUD$1,000,000 or (vi) equal to the remaining available balance of the applicable Commitment.

Each Lender may at its option make any SOFR Loan, Canadian Revolving Credit Loan or Australian Revolving Credit Loan denominated in U.S. dollars by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or cause any Borrower to incur any cost under Section 2.19 that would not have been incurred but for the exercise of such option. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made, would
    -60-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


result in more than ten SOFR Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any time, more than ten Term CORRA Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any time, or more than ten BBSY Rate Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any time. For purposes of the foregoing, SOFR Borrowings, BBSY Rate Borrowings or Term CORRA Borrowings having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings.
(c)    Except with respect to Loans made pursuant to Section 2.02(g), each U.S. Lender making Loans denominated in U.S. dollars to thea U.S. Borrower shall make each such Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as the Administrative Agent may designate not later than 1:00 p.m. (Standard Time) in the case of a SOFR Borrowing, or 1:00 p.m. (Standard Time) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly credit the amounts so received to an account designated by thesuch U.S. Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request. Except with respect to Loans made pursuant to Section 2.02(g), each Canadian Revolving Lender making Loans to the Parent Borrower or to a U.S. Borrower (with respect to U.S. dollar denominated Loans) shall make each Canadian Revolving Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account in Toronto, Ontario as the Canadian Administrative Agent may designate not later than 1:00 p.m. (Standard Time) in the case of a SOFR Borrowing or a Term CORRA Borrowing, or 1:00 p.m. (Standard Time) in the case of a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing or U.S. Base Rate Borrowing, and the Canadian Administrative Agent shall promptly credit the amounts so received to an account designated by the Parent Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request. Except with respect to Loans made pursuant to Section 2.02(g), each Australian Lender making Loans to the Australian Borrower shall make each Australian Revolving Credit Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as the Australian Administrative Agent may designate not later than 3:00 p.m. (Sydney time), and the Australian Administrative Agent shall promptly credit the amounts so received to an account designated by the Australian Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request.
(d)    Unless the Applicable Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Applicable Administrative Agent such Lender’s Applicable Pro Rata Percentage of such Borrowing, the Applicable Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Applicable Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (c) above and the Applicable Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Applicable Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Applicable Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Applicable Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Applicable Borrower severally agree to repay to the Applicable Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Applicable Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Applicable Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of a Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to Loans pursuant to

|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


Section 2.06(a), 2.06(c) or 2.06(f), as the case may be, and (ii) in the case of such Lender, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Applicable Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error). If such Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Applicable Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Applicable Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Applicable Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower for such period. If such Lender shall repay to the Applicable Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing does not constitute a waiver by any Borrower of any claim for damages permitted hereunder and attributable to such Lender. Any payment by a Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim any Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Applicable Administrative Agent.
(e)    Unless the Applicable Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Applicable Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Applicable Administrative Agent for the account of the Applicable Lenders, the Applicable Issuing Bank or the Applicable Swing Line Lender hereunder that the Applicable Borrower will not make such payment, the Applicable Administrative Agent may assume that the Applicable Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Applicable Lenders, the Applicable Issuing Bank or the Applicable Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Applicable Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Applicable Lenders, the Applicable Issuing Bank or the Applicable Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Applicable Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Applicable Lender, such Applicable Issuing Bank or the Applicable Swing Line Lender, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Applicable Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Applicable Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
(f)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrowers shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.
(g)    If an Issuing Bank shall not have received from the U.S. Borrowers, the Parent Borrower or the Australian Borrower, as the case may be, the payment required to be made by Section 2.21(e) within the time specified in such Section, such Issuing Bank will promptly notify the Applicable Administrative Agent of the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of such L/C Disbursement and the Applicable Administrative Agent will promptly notify each U.S. Revolving Lender, Canadian Revolving Lender or Australian Lender, as applicable, of the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of such L/C Disbursement and its U.S. Revolving Pro Rata Percentage, Canadian Revolving Pro Rata Percentage or Australian Revolving Pro Rata Percentage, as applicable, thereof. Each such Revolving Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Applicable Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (Standard Time)
    -62-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


on such date (or, if such Revolving Lender shall have received such notice later than 12:00 p.m. (Standard Time) on any day, not later than 11:00 a.m. (Standard Time) on the immediately following Business Day), an amount equal to such Lender’s U.S. Revolving Pro Rata Percentage, Canadian Revolving Pro Rata Percentage or Australian Revolving Pro Rata Percentage, as applicable, of the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of such L/C Disbursement (it being understood that such amount shall be deemed to constitute an ABR Loan, a Canadian Prime Rate Loan or a BBSY Rate Loan, as applicable, of such Lender and such payment shall be deemed to have reduced the U.S. L/C Exposure, the Canadian L/C Exposure or the Australian L/C Exposure, as applicable), and the Applicable Administrative Agent will promptly pay to such Issuing Bank amounts so received by it from such Lenders. The Applicable Administrative Agent will promptly pay to such Issuing Bank any amounts received by it from a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.21(e) prior to the time that any Lender makes any payment pursuant to this paragraph (g); any such amounts received by the Applicable Administrative Agent thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Applicable Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made such payments and to such Issuing Bank, as their interests may appear. If any Lender shall not have made its U.S. Revolving Pro Rata Percentage, Canadian Revolving Pro Rata Percentage or Australian Revolving Pro Rata Percentage, as applicable, of such L/C Disbursement available to the Applicable Administrative Agent as provided above, such Lender and the Borrower for whose (or for whose Subsidiary’s) account such L/C Disbursement was made severally agree to pay interest on such amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is required to be paid in accordance with this paragraph to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Applicable Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank at (i) in the case of such Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to Loans pursuant to Section 2.06(a), 2.06(c) or 2.06(f), as the case may be, and (ii) in the case of such Lender, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Applicable Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error); provided, however, that the foregoing does not constitute a waiver by any Borrower of any claim for damages permitted hereunder and attributable to such Lender. In addition, if there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Alternative Currency of such L/C Disbursement and the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof as determined by the Applicable Administrative Agent on the date of the L/C Disbursement and the date of actual payment of the amount due (whether by a U.S. Revolving Lender, a Canadian Revolving Lender, an Australian Lender or the Borrower for whose (or for whose Subsidiary’s) account such L/C Disbursement was made), the Borrower for whose (or for whose Subsidiary’s) account such L/C Disbursement was made covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any, as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in U.S. dollars, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of such L/C Disbursement which could have been purchased with the amount of the Alternative Currency of such L/C Disbursement at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of the L/C Disbursement. For purposes of determining the U.S. Dollar Equivalent or rate of exchange for this Section, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Alternative Currency.

    -71-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


Administrative Agent is unable to determine Adjusted Term SOFR for SOFR Loans comprising any requested Borrowing, or (ii) if the Applicable Required Lenders shall, by 11:00 a.m. (Standard Time) at least one (1) Business Day before the date of any requested Borrowing, notify the Applicable Administrative Agent that Adjusted Term SOFR for SOFR Loans comprising such Borrowing will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining its SOFR Loan, during such Interest Period, then the Applicable Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written, fax or electronic communication (e-mail) (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by a written, fax or electronic communication (e-mail)) notice of such determination to each Applicable Borrower and each Applicable Lender. In the event of any such determination, until the Applicable Administrative Agent shall have advised the Applicable Borrowers and the Applicable Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any request by such Borrower for a SOFR Borrowing (other than a SOFR Borrowing under the Australian Revolving Credit Facility) pursuant to Section 2.03 or 2.10 shall be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing (or, in the case of a request by the Parent Borrower, a U.S. Base Rate Borrowing). Each determination by the Applicable Administrative Agent hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Applicable Administrative Agent (i) determines that the circumstances described in clause (a)(i) of this Section 2.08 have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (ii) determines that the circumstances described in clause (a)(i) of this Section 2.08 have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of Term SOFR or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Applicable Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which Term SOFR shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, (iii) is advised by the Applicable Required Lenders of their determination in accordance with clause (a)(ii) of this Section 2.08, or (iv) new syndicated loans have started to adopt a new benchmark interest rate, then the Applicable Administrative Agent and the Applicable Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to Term SOFR that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable, provided that to the extent that the Applicable Administrative Agent determines that adoption of any portion of such market convention is not administratively feasible or that no market convention for the administration of such alternate rate of interest exists, the Applicable Administrative Agent shall administer such alternate rate of interest in a manner acceptable by the Applicable Administrative Agent and the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.08, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Applicable Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Applicable Lenders, a written notice from the Applicable Required Lenders stating that such Applicable Required Lenders object to such amendment. If a notice of an alternate rate of interest has been given and no such alternate rate of interest has been determined, and (x) the circumstances under clause (i) or (iii) above exist or (y) the specific date referred to in clause (ii) has occurred (as applicable), Alternate Base Rate shall apply without regard to clause (c) of the definition thereof.

(d)    Upon delivery of such notice by the Applicable Administrative Agent to the Applicable Borrower under Section 2.08(c), any obligation of the Applicable Lenders to make Term CORRA Loans and any right of the Applicable Borrower to continue Term CORRA Loans or to convert Canadian Prime Rate Loans to Term CORRA Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term CORRA Loans or affected Interest Periods) until the Applicable Administrative Agent (with respect to Section 2.08(c)(ii), at the instruction of the Applicable Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice by the Applicable Administrative Agent to the Applicable Borrower, the Applicable Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term CORRA Loans (to the extent of the affected Term CORRA Loans or affected Interest Periods), and failing such revocation, the Applicable Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Canadian Prime Rate Loans, in the amount specified therein. Upon any such conversion, the Applicable Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.15.

Such deposited cash collateral shall be assigned to the Applicable Administrative Agent as security for the obligations of the Parent Borrower in relation to such BBSY Rate Loan and the Lien of the Applicable Administrative Agent thereby created therein shall rank in priority to all other Liens and adverse claims against deposited cash collateral. The Applicable Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the Applicable Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.11 and of each Lender’s portion of such prepayment.

Upon any such prepayment or conversion following receipt of an Illegality Notice, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.13 and Section 2.15.

SECTION 2.17    Sharing of Setoffs
.
. (a)    Each Canadian Revolving Lender agrees that if it shall, through the exercise of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against a Borrower or any other Loan Party, or pursuant to a secured claim or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Canadian Revolving Lender under any applicable Insolvency Law or otherwise, or by any other means, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of any Canadian Revolving Loan as a result of which the unpaid portion of its Canadian Revolving Loans shall be proportionately less than the unpaid portion of the Canadian Revolving Loans of any other Canadian Revolving Lender of the same Class, it shall (i) notify the Applicable Administrative Agent of such fact and (ii) be deemed simultaneously to have purchased from such other Canadian Revolving Lender at face value, and shall promptly pay to such other Canadian Revolving Lender the purchase price for, a participation in the Canadian Revolving Loans of the same Class of such other Canadian Revolving Lender and, if applicable, subparticipations in Canadian L/C Exposure and Canadian Swing Line Loans of such other Canadian Revolving Lender, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the aggregate unpaid amount of the Canadian Revolving Loans and participations in Canadian L/C Exposure and Canadian Swing Line Loans held by each Canadian Revolving Lender shall be in

|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


Lender the purchase price for, a participation in the Australian Revolving Credit Loans of the same Class of such other Australian Lender and, if applicable, subparticipations in Australian L/C Exposure of such other Australian Lender, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the aggregate unpaid amount of the Australian Revolving Credit Loans and participations in Australian Revolving Credit Loans and Australian L/C Exposure held by each Australian Lender shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid amount of all Australian Revolving Credit Loans, Australian L/C Exposure then outstanding of the same Class as the amount of its Australian Revolving Credit Loans, Australian L/C Exposure prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event was to the amount of all Australian Revolving Credit Loans and Australian L/C Exposure outstanding prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event; provided, however, that if any such purchase, purchases, subparticipations or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.17(c) and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase, purchases, subparticipations or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored without interest.
(d)    Whenever the Bilateral Lender (in such capacity as the lender under the Bilateral Agreement and not in its capacity as a Lender under this Agreement) receives or recovers any money in respect of any sum due from an Australian Loan Party and applies such amounts against the Bilateral Obligations (including recoveries by way of set off) (“Turnover Money”) and:
(i)    an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Agreement and the Australian Collateral Agent has enforced its rights and remedies under the Australian Security Documents as contemplated by Sections 7.02 or 7.03; or
(ii)    if paragraph (i) above does not apply, but an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under this Agreement,
then:
(iii)    in the case of paragraph (i) above:
(A)    the Bilateral Lender will promptly notify the Australian Collateral Agent and pay an amount equal to the Turnover Money to the Australian Collateral Agent (unless the Australian Collateral Agent directs otherwise on the instructions of the Applicable Required Lenders); and
(B)    the Australian Collateral Agent will deal with the Turnover Money as if it were a payment by the Australian Loan Parties under this Agreement; and
(iv)    in the case of paragraph (ii) above:
(A)    the Bilateral Lender will promptly notify the Australian Administrative Agent and pay an amount equal to the Turnover Money to the
    -84-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


Australian Administrative Agent (unless the Australian Administrative Agent directs otherwise on the instructions of the Applicable Required Lenders); and
(B)    the Australian Administrative Agent will hold the Turnover Money paid to it under paragraph (A) for a period of no greater than 15 Business Days (“Decision Period”) to be applied by the Australian Administrative Agent as follows:
(1)    if prior to the end of the Decision Period, an Event of Default occurs or has occurred and is continuing under this Agreement and the Australian Collateral Agent enforces its rights and remedies under the Australian Security Documents as contemplated by Section 7.02 or 7.03, the Australian Administrative Agent will immediately pay an amount equal to the Turnover Money to the Australian Collateral Agent on such enforcement and the Australian Collateral Agent shall deal with the Turnover Money as if it were a payment by the Australian Loan Parties under this Agreement; or
(2)    in all other circumstances, it will return an amount equal to the Turnover Moneys to the Bilateral Lender for the Bilateral Lender to apply to the Bilateral Obligations.
    The parties agree that the Turnover Money recovered by the Bilateral Lender that is ultimately distributed by the Australian Collateral Agent to the relevant Secured Parties will be taken to have been a payment for the account of the Australian Collateral Agent and not to the Bilateral Lender for its own account (and the liability of an Australian Loan Party to the Bilateral Lender will only be reduced to the extent the Turnover Money is returned the Bilateral Lender as contemplated by Section 2.17(d)(iv)(B)(2)). Without limiting this paragraph, the relevant Australian Loan Party shall indemnify the Bilateral Lender against a recovery by the Bilateral Lender of the Turnover Money to the extent that (despite this paragraph), the relevant Australian Loan Party’s liability has been discharged by the recovery or payment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Bilateral Lender’s obligations under this clause Section 2.17(d) to pay any Turnover Moneys to the Australian Administrative Agent or Australian Collateral Agent (as the case may be), is only enlivened when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(e)    The provisions of Section 2.17(a), (b), (c) and (d) shall not be construed to apply to (i) any payment made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (ii) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in L/C Exposure or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to a Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of Section 2.17(a), (b) and (c) shall apply).
(f)    Each Loan Party expressly consents to the arrangements set forth in Section 2.17(a), (b), (c) and (d) above and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender holding a participation in a Loan or L/C Exposure pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party any and all rights of banker’s
    -85-

lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Loan Party in the amount of such participation.
SECTION 2.18    Payments
.  
. (a)    The Borrowers shall make each payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any L/C Disbursement or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder and under any other Loan Document not later than 4:00 p.m. (Standard Time) on the date when due in immediately available U.S. dollars (or Canadian dollars, in the case of payments relating to Commitments, Loans and Letters of Credit denominated in Canadian dollars, or Australian dollars, in the case of payments relating to Commitments, Loans and Letters of Credit denominated in Australian dollars), without setoff, defense or counterclaim. Each such payment (other than Issuing Bank Fees, which shall be paid directly to the Applicable Issuing Bank) shall be made to the office of the Applicable Administrative Agent designated by such Applicable Administrative Agent. The Applicable Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees ratably (other than amounts payable solely to the Administrative Agent, the Canadian Administrative Agent, the Australian Administrative Agent, a specific Issuing Bank, or a specific Lender pursuant to Section 2.05, 2.08, 2.13, 2.14, 2.15, 2.19, or 9.05, but after taking into account payments effected pursuant to Section 9.05(a)) in accordance with each Lender’s Applicable Pro Rata Percentage thereof, to the Lenders for the account of their respective applicable lending offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender or Issuing Bank to such Lender or Issuing Bank for the account of its applicable lending office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(b)    Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, whenever any payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or Fees, if applicable.
SECTION 2.19    Taxes
.
(a)    For purposes of this Section 2.19, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
(b)    Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the
    -86-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Applicable Borrower or the applicable Loan Party, as the case may be, shall be increased as necessary so that, after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(c)    In addition, the Loan Parties shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law or, at the option of the Applicable Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for the payment of any Other Taxes.
(d)    The Borrowers shall severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient 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. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Applicable Borrower by a Lender or an Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Applicable Administrative Agent), or by the Applicable Administrative Agent on its behalf or on behalf of a Lender or Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(e)    Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Applicable Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Applicable Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Applicable Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Applicable Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Applicable Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Applicable Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Applicable Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).
(f)    As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, the applicable Loan Party shall deliver to the Applicable Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return

In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Applicable Borrower or the Applicable Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Applicable Borrower or the Applicable Administrative Agent as will enable the Applicable Borrower or the Applicable Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 2.19(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Applicable Borrower with respect to such Lender is a U.S. Person:
(A)    any Lender with respect to such Borrower that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to such Borrower and the Applicable Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Applicable 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 with respect to such Borrower shall deliver to such Borrower and the Applicable Administrative Agent, in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient, (on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement and from time to time thereafter upon the request of such Borrower or the Applicable Administrative Agent), but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so, whichever of the following is applicable:

(3)    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 substantially in the form of the applicable Exhibit I-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Applicable Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) duly completed copies of an applicable IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, or
(4)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, an applicable IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I-2 or Exhibit I-3, 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 substantially in the form of Exhibit I-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C)    any Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to such Borrower and the Applicable Administrative Agent (in such copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Applicable Administrative Agent), duly completed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Applicable Borrower or the Applicable Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)    If a payment made to an Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank fails to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in
    -89-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Applicable Borrower or the Applicable Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Applicable Borrower or the Applicable Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Applicable Borrower or the Applicable Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Applicable Borrower or the Applicable Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from any such payments. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (i), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
(E)    Solely for purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agents shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agents to treat) the Loans as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).
Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Applicable Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(h)    RBC, as Administrative Agent, shall deliver, on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement, to the U.S. Borrowers a duly completed copy of IRS Form W-8IMY certifying that it is a “U.S. branch” of a foreign bank and that it agrees to be treated as a U.S. Person with respect to any payments made to it by the U.S. Borrowers under any Loan Document. RBC, as Administrative Agent agrees that if such IRS Form W-8IMY previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form if it is legally able to do so or promptly notify the Parent Borrower in writing of its legal inability to do so (including as a result of a change in RBC’s operations). If the Administrative Agent (i) fails to deliver the form required by this Section 2.19(h) or is legally unable to update such form as required by this Section 2.19(h) and (ii) fails to appoint as a sub-agent pursuant to Section 8.05 any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent that is a U.S. Person or that can deliver the form required by this Section 2.19(h), then the Parent Borrower shall have the right to require the appointment of an agent that is a U.S. Person solely for the purposes of receiving U.S. tax forms and administering any required withholding for U.S. Taxes under this Section 2.19; provided that such appointment shall not otherwise affect the rights and obligations of the Administrative Agent set forth in this Agreement.
(i)    If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section
    -90-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


2.19 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.19), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, agrees to repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (i), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (i) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other person.
(j)    (i)    Unless expressly stated otherwise in the relevant Loan Document, the consideration payable for any supply made by or through a Lender or Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Loan Document does not include Australian GST.
(ii)    If Australian GST is payable in respect of any supply made by or through a Lender or Issuing Bank (a “Supplier) under or in connection with any Loan Document (Australian GST Liability) then:
(A)    where consideration is provided by a party (Recipient Party) in relation to that supply, the Recipient Party will pay an additional amount to the Supplier equal to the full amount of the Australian GST Liability; and
(B)    except where the foregoing clause (A) applies, the Australian Borrower will indemnify and keep the Supplier indemnified for the full amount of the Australian GST Liability.
However, (l) the relevant Recipient Party or the Australian Borrower, as applicable, need not pay the additional amount on account of the Australian GST Liability to a Supplier until that Supplier gives the Recipient Party or the Australian Borrower, as applicable, a tax invoice complying with the relevant law relating to any payment made to that Supplier in accordance with this Section 2.20(j)(ii) and (2) if an adjustment event arises in respect of any supply made by or through a Lender or Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Loan Document and (if required by law) the Lender or Issuing Bank gives the Recipient Party or the Australian Borrower, as applicable, a valid adjustment note, the additional amount must be adjusted to reflect the adjustment event and the
    -91-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


Recipient Party or the Supplier (as the case may be) must make any payments necessary to reflect the adjustment; and (3) this Section 2.20(j)(ii) does not apply to the extent that the Australian GST Liability on a supply made by or through a Lender or Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Loan Document is payable by the Recipient Party or the Australian Borrower, as appropriate, under Division 83 or 84 of the A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999 (Cth) and the Lender or Issuing Bank has no liability at all in relation to that payment.
(iii)    Any payment or reimbursement required to be made to a Lender or Issuing Bank under any Loan Document that is calculated by reference to a cost or other amount paid or incurred will be limited to the total cost or other amount less the amount of any input tax credit or other credit to which the relevant Lender or Issuing Bank (or the representative member for a Australian GST group of which the relevant Lender or Issuing Bank is a member) is entitled for the acquisition to which the cost or other amount relates.
(iv)    Words used in this Section 2.19(j) which are not defined in this agreement but which have a defined meaning in the GST Law have the same meaning as in the GST Law unless the contrary intention appears.

    -92-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


accrued for the account of such Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder (including any amounts under Section 2.13 and Section 2.15) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and Fees) or the Applicable Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (D) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.13 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.19, such assignment is expected to result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter and (E) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent. A Lender or Issuing Bank shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender, Issuing Bank or otherwise, the circumstances entitling such Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
(b)    If (i) any Lender or Issuing Bank shall request compensation under Section 2.13, (ii) any Lender or Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.14 or (iii) a Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, pursuant to Section 2.19, then such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (A) would eliminate or reduce its claims for compensation under Section 2.13 or enable it to withdraw its notice pursuant to Section 2.14 or would reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.19, as the case may be, in the future and (B) would not subject such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank to incur an unreimbursed loss or unreimbursed cost or expense or otherwise take any action inconsistent with its internal policies or legal or regulatory restrictions. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or Issuing Bank in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(a)    General. Each Borrower may request the issuance of a Letter of Credit denominated in U.S. dollars, Canadian dollars, Australian dollars or in one or more Alternative Currencies for its own account or for the account of any of its Subsidiaries (in which case such Borrower and such Subsidiary shall be co-applicants with respect to such Letter of Credit), in a form reasonably acceptable to the Applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time while the Revolving Commitments remain in effect, but no later than five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date.

In order to request the issuance of a Letter of Credit in a currency other than those specifically listed in the definition of “Alternative Currency”, the Applicable Borrower shall follow the procedures set forth in Section 1.05 hereof. A U.S. Letter of Credit shall be denominated in U.S. dollars or an Alternative Currency and shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if, and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the U.S. Borrowers shall be deemed to represent and warrant that, after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the U.S. L/C Exposure shall not exceed U.S.$10,000,000, (ii) the aggregate U.S. Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Total U.S. Revolving Commitment, and (iii) the U.S. L/C Exposure related to U.S. Letters of Credit issued by an Issuing Bank shall not exceed an amount agreed to in writing between the U.S. Borrowers and such Issuing Bank and notified to the Administrative Agent.

Each Australian Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date not later than the Maturity Date.
(d)    Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit and without any further action on the part of an Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Applicable Issuing Bank hereby grants to each U.S. Revolving Lender, Canadian Revolving Lender or Australian Lender, as the case may be, and each such Revolving Lender hereby acquires from the Applicable Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s U.S. Revolving Pro Rata Percentage, Canadian Revolving Pro Rata Percentage or Australian Revolving Pro Rata Percentage, as applicable, of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, effective upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of the Rolled Letters of Credit, effective upon the Closing Date).

(ii)    any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document;
(iii)    the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that such Borrower, any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, such Borrower, any subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof or any other person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, the Applicable Issuing Bank, any Agent or any Lender or any other person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction;
(iv)    any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;
(v)    any payment by the Applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit to any person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Insolvency Law; and
    -96-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


(vi)    any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to any Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other person, or in the relevant currency markets generally; or
(vii)    any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of the Applicable Issuing Bank, the Lenders, the Agents or any other person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of such Borrower’s obligations hereunder.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing but subject to the proviso in subsection (g) below, it is expressly understood and agreed that the absolute and unconditional obligation of each Borrower hereunder to reimburse L/C Disbursements will not be excused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Applicable Issuing Bank.
(g)    Role of Issuing Bank. Each Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit. None of the Issuing Banks, the Agents, any of their respective Related Parties or any correspondent, participant or assignee of any Issuing Bank shall be liable or responsible for:
(i)    the use which may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith;
(ii)    the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; or
(iii)    any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit (including the Issuing Bank’s own negligence),
provided, however, that a Borrower shall have a claim against the Applicable Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank shall be liable to, and shall promptly pay to, such Borrower, to the extent of any direct, as opposed to consequential (claims in respect of which are hereby waived by such Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law), damages suffered by such Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to comply with its duties as an issuing bank under applicable law or gross negligence or willful misconduct in determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit strictly comply with the terms thereof. It is understood that the Applicable Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit (i) such Issuing Bank’s exclusive reliance on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in
    -97-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever and (ii) any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be deemed not to constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Applicable Issuing Bank. Each Revolving Lender and each Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Applicable Issuing Bank shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the person executing or delivering any such document.
(h)    Disbursement Procedures. The Applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Applicable Issuing Bank shall as promptly as possible give telephonic notification, confirmed by fax or by electronic communication (e-mail), to the Applicable Administrative Agent and the Applicable Borrower of such demand for payment and whether the Applicable Issuing Bank has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Applicable Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement. The Applicable Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Applicable Lender notice thereof.
(i)    Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, then, unless the Applicable Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on such date, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest for the account of the Applicable Issuing Bank, for each day from and including the date of such L/C Disbursement, to but excluding the earlier of the date of payment by such Borrower or the date on which interest shall commence to accrue thereon as provided in Section 2.02(e), at the rate per annum that would apply to such amount if such amount were an ABR Loan, a Canadian Prime Rate Loan (for Canadian Letters of Credit) or, in the case of any L/C Disbursement with respect to an Australian Letter of Credit, a BBSY Rate Loan, as the case may be.
(j)    Resignation or Removal of an Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice to the Applicable Administrative Agent, the Applicable Lenders and the Parent Borrower, and may be removed at any time by the Parent Borrower by notice to such Issuing Bank, the Applicable Administrative Agent and the Applicable Lenders. Subject to the next succeeding paragraph, upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder by a Lender that shall agree to serve as successor Issuing Bank, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the interests, rights and obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank and the retiring Issuing Bank shall be discharged from its obligations to issue additional Letters of Credit hereunder. At the time such removal or resignation shall become effective, the Applicable Borrower shall pay all accrued and unpaid Issuing Bank Fees pursuant to Section 2.05(c). The acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder by a successor Lender shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor, in a form satisfactory to each Applicable Borrower and the Applicable Administrative
    -98-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


Agent, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such successor Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the previous Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or removal of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the retiring Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or removal, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.
(k)    Cash Collateralization. If (i) any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, other than an event with respect to a Borrower described in Section 7.01(g) or (h) and a Borrower shall receive notice from Applicable Administrative Agent or the Required U.S. Lenders, the Required Canadian Revolving Lenders or the Required Australian Lenders, as applicable, requesting that it deposit Cash Collateral and specifying the amount to be deposited, or (ii) an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing with respect to a Borrower described in Section 7.01(g) or (h) then such Borrower shall, on the Business Day it receives the notice referenced in clause (i) above or immediately upon the occurrence of the Event of Default referenced in clause (ii) above, deposit in an account with the U.S. Collateral Agent, the Canadian Collateral Agent or the Australian Collateral Agent, as the case may be, for the benefit of the U.S. Revolving Lenders, Canadian Revolving Lenders or Australian Lenders, as the case may be, an amount in cash equal to 105% of the U.S. L/C Exposure, the Canadian L/C Exposure or the Australian L/C Exposure, respectively, as of such date. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, after reallocation pursuant to Section 2.24(c), promptly upon the request of an Administrative Agent or an Issuing Bank (which request may be a condition to the issuance amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit), the Applicable Borrower shall deliver to the U.S. Collateral Agent, the Canadian Collateral Agent or the Australian Collateral Agent, as the case may be, for the benefit of the U.S. Revolving Lenders, Canadian Revolving Lenders or Australian Lenders, as the case may be, Cash Collateral in an amount equal to the Fronting Exposure at such time (determined for the avoidance of doubt, after giving effect to Section 2.24(a) and any Cash Collateral provided by any Defaulting Lender). Such deposits shall be held by the U.S. Collateral Agent, the Canadian Collateral Agent or the Australian Collateral Agent, as the case may be, as collateral for the payment and performance of the Obligations. Such Collateral Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. If a Borrower is required to Cash Collateralize the U.S. L/C Exposure, Canadian L/C Exposure, or Australian L/C Exposure, then such Borrower and the Applicable Collateral Agent shall establish a cash collateral account (an “L/C Cash Collateral Account”) and the Applicable Borrower shall execute any documents and agreements that such Collateral Agent reasonably requests in connection therewith to establish the L/C Cash Collateral Account and grant such Collateral Agent a first-priority security interest in such account and the funds therein. Each Borrower hereby pledges to the Applicable Collateral Agent and grants such Collateral Agent a security interest in the L/C Cash Collateral Account, whenever established, all funds held in such L/C Cash Collateral Account from time to time and all proceeds thereof as security for the payment of the Obligations. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits in Permitted Investments, which investments shall be made at the option and sole
    -99-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


discretion of such Collateral Agent, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. The Applicable Administrative Agent may, at any time and from time to time after the initial deposit of such Cash Collateral, request that additional Cash Collateral be provided in order to protect against the results of exchange rate fluctuations. Moneys in such account shall (i) automatically be applied by the Applicable Administrative Agent to reimburse the Applicable Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed, (ii) be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Applicable Borrower for the U.S. L/C Exposure, the Canadian L/C Exposure or the Australian L/C Exposure, as applicable, at such time and (iii) if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, be applied to satisfy the Obligations. If a Borrower is required to provide an amount of Cash Collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure shall be released promptly following (A) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by any Defaulting Lender ceasing to be a Defaulting Lender or ceasing to be a Revolving Lender) or (B) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of an Event of Default and may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 7.06.
(l)    Additional Issuing Banks. A Borrower may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Applicable Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and such Revolving Lender, designate one or more additional Revolving Lenders to act as an issuing bank under the terms of this Agreement. The acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder by a Revolving Lender shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such Revolving Lender, in a form satisfactory to each Applicable Borrower and the Applicable Administrative Agent, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, any Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this paragraph (l) shall be deemed (in addition to being a Lender) to be the Issuing Bank with respect to Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender, and all references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall, with respect to such Letters of Credit, be deemed to refer to such Lender in its capacity as Issuing Bank.
(m)    In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Letter of Credit Document, the terms hereof shall control.
(n)    Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Borrower or any Subsidiary of such Borrower, each Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Applicable Issuing Bank hereunder for any and all L/C Disbursements under such Letter of Credit requested by such Borrower for its own account or for the account of any of its Subsidiaries. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of any of its Subsidiaries (other than, with respect to the U.S. Borrowers, the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof or the Australian Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof) inures to the benefit of such Borrower, and that such
    -100-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Borrower’s Subsidiaries.
(o)    Each Issuing Bank, the Revolving Lenders and the Borrowers agree that effective as of the Closing Date, the Rolled Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued and maintained under, and to be governed by the terms and conditions of, this Agreement.

Within the foregoing limits, the U.S. Borrowers may borrow under this Section 2.23(a), prepay under Section 2.11, and reborrow under this Section 2.23(a). Immediately upon the making of a U.S. Swing Line Loan, each U.S. Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the U.S. Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such U.S. Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such U.S. Revolving Lender’s U.S. Revolving Pro Rata Percentage (expressed as a decimal) times the amount of such U.S. Swing Line Loan. Each U.S. Revolving Lender shall have the obligation to purchase and fund risk participations in the U.S. Swing Line Loans and to refinance U.S. Swing Line Loans as provided in this Agreement.

Each Canadian Revolving Lender shall have the obligation to purchase and fund risk participations in the Canadian Swing Line Loans and to refinance Canadian Swing Line Loans as provided in this Agreement.
(b)    Borrowing Procedures. If an AutoBorrow Agreement is in effect, each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made as provided in such AutoBorrow Agreement. Otherwise, in order to request a Swing Line Borrowing, the Applicable Borrower shall hand deliver, fax or send by electronic communication (e-mail) (or by telephone notice promptly confirmed by a written, fax or electronic communication (e-mail)) to the Applicable Swing Line Lender and the Applicable Administrative Agent a duly completed Borrowing Request not later than 2:00 p.m. (Standard Time) on the day of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing. Each such Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable, shall be signed by or on behalf of the Applicable Borrower and shall specify the following information: (i) the date of such Swing Line Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day); (ii) in the case of a Canadian Swing Line Borrowing, whether such Canadian Swing Line Borrowing is to be denominated in Canadian dollars or U.S. dollars; and (iii) the amount of such Swing Line Borrowing, which shall be a minimum of U.S.$1,000,000, except as otherwise set forth in any AutoBorrow Agreement. Promptly after receipt by the Applicable Swing Line Lender of any Borrowing Request, the Applicable Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Applicable Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Applicable
    -102-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


Administrative Agent has also received such Borrowing Request and, if not, the Applicable Swing Line Lender will notify the Applicable Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Applicable Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Applicable Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Applicable Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. (Standard Time) on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Applicable Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of either Section 2.23(a)(i) or Section 2.23(a)(ii), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Article IV is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Applicable Swing Line Lender will, not later than 1:00 p.m. (Standard Time) on the borrowing date specified in such Borrowing Request, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Applicable Borrower at its office by crediting the account of the Applicable Borrower on the books of the Applicable Swing Line Lender in immediately available funds. If an AutoBorrow Agreement is in effect, such additional terms and conditions of such AutoBorrow Agreement shall have been satisfied, and in the event that any of the terms of this Section 2.23 conflict with such AutoBorrow Agreement, the terms of the AutoBorrow Agreement shall govern and control. No Applicable Lender shall have any rights or obligations under any AutoBorrow Agreement, but each Applicable Lender shall have the obligation to purchase and fund risk participations in the Swing Line Loans and to refinance Swing Line Loan as provided herein.
(c)    Refinancing of Swing Line Loans. (i) The Applicable Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Applicable Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Applicable Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), or the Applicable Borrower at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, that each Applicable Lender make (A) with respect to U.S. Swing Line Loans, an ABR Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s U.S. Revolving Pro Rata Percentage of the amount of U.S. Swing Line Loans then outstanding and (B)(1) with respect to Canadian Swing Line Loans denominated in Canadian dollars, a Canadian Prime Rate Loan or (2) with respect to Canadian Swing Line Loans denominated in U.S. dollars, a U.S. Base Rate Loan, in each case in an amount equal to such Lender’s Canadian Revolving Pro Rata Percentage of the amount of Canadian Swing Line Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Borrowing Request for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of ABR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or U.S. Base Rate Loans, as applicable, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Total U.S. Revolving Commitments or Total Canadian Revolving Commitments, as applicable, and the conditions set forth in Section 4.01. The Applicable Swing Line Lender or the Applicable Borrower, as applicable, shall furnish to the other a copy of the applicable Borrowing Request promptly after delivering such notice to the Applicable Administrative Agent. Each Applicable Lender shall make an amount equal to its Applicable Pro Rata Percentage of the amount specified in such Borrowing Request available to the Applicable Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the account of the Applicable Swing Line Lender at the office designated by the Applicable Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (Standard Time) on the day specified in such Borrowing Request, whereupon, subject to Section 2.23(c)(ii), each Applicable Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a ABR Loan, Canadian Prime Rate
    -103-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


Loan or U.S. Base Rate Loan, as applicable, to the Applicable Borrower in such amount. The Applicable Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Applicable Swing Line Lender.
(ii)    If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by a U.S. Revolving Borrowing or a Canadian Revolving Borrowing, as applicable, in accordance with Section 2.23(c)(i), the request for ABR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or U.S. Base Rate Loans, as applicable, submitted by the Applicable Swing Line Lender or the Applicable Borrower as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Applicable Swing Line Lender that each of the Applicable Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Applicable Lender’s payment to the Applicable Administrative Agent for the account of the Applicable Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.23(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.
(iii)    If any Applicable Lender fails to make available to the Applicable Administrative Agent for the account of the Applicable Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.23(c) by the time specified in Section 2.23(c)(i), the Applicable Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Applicable Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Applicable Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Applicable Swing Line Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the Applicable Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Applicable Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be presumed correct absent manifest error.
(iv)    Each Applicable Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.23(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Applicable Swing Line Lender, the Applicable Borrower or any other person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Applicable Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.23(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.01. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Applicable Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.
    -104-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


(d)    Repayment of Participations. (i) At any time after any Applicable Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Applicable Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Applicable Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Applicable Lenders their Applicable Pro Rata Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Applicable Swing Line Lender.
(ii)    If any payment received by the Applicable Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Applicable Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 9.19 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Applicable Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Applicable Lender shall pay to the Applicable Swing Line Lender its Applicable Pro Rata Percentage thereof on demand of the Applicable Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate. The Applicable Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Applicable Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
(e)    Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Applicable Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Applicable Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until each Applicable Lender funds its Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.23 to refinance such Applicable Lender’s Applicable Pro Rata Percentage of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Applicable Pro Rata Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Applicable Swing Line Lender.
(f)    Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Applicable Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Applicable Swing Line Lender, and, if an AutoBorrow Agreement is in effect, in accordance with the terms of such AutoBorrow Agreement.
(g)    Discretionary Nature of the Swing Line Facility. Notwithstanding any terms to the contrary contained herein, the swing line facilities provided herein (i) are each an uncommitted facility and the Swing Line Lenders may, but shall not be obligated to, make Swing Line Loans, and (ii) may be terminated at any time by the Applicable Swing Line Lender or the Applicable Borrower upon written notice by the terminating party to the non-terminating party.
SECTION 2.24    Defaulting Lenders

|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


(i)    such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be restricted as set forth in Section 9.08(b); and
(ii)    any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Applicable Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII, or otherwise, or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.05), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Applicable Administrative Agent as follows:
(A)    first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Applicable Administrative Agent hereunder;
(B)    second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Banks and the Swing Line Lenders hereunder;
(C)    third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.21(k);
(D)    fourth, as the Applicable Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Applicable Administrative Agent;
(E)    fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.21(k);

(G)    seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Applicable Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Applicable

Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and
(H)    eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Revolving Credit Loans or L/C Disbursements in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Revolving Credit Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Revolving Credit Loans of, and L/C Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Revolving Credit Loans of, or L/C Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Revolving Commitments without giving effect to Section 2.24(c). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to any Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.24(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to any Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by such Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.24(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
(b)    Certain Fees.

Each Payment Recipient agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Payment Recipient shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent (i) in respect of amounts under the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility only, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with prevailing banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, or (ii) in respect of the Canadian Revolving Credit Facility only, at a rate
    -166-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


determined by the Canadian Administrative Agent in accordance with prevailing banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.
(c)    Each Payment Recipient hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Payment Recipient under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Payment Recipient from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under any of the immediately preceding clauses (a) or (b) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.
(d)    In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), the Borrowers and each other Loan Party hereby agrees that (x) the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Payment Recipient with respect to such amount (including, without limitation, the right to sell and assign the Loans (or any portion thereof), which were subject to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency) and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment. For the avoidance of doubt, no assignment of an Erroneous Payment Deficiency will reduce the Commitments of any Payment Recipient and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to the assignment of an Erroneous Payment Deficiency, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Payment Recipient under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency.
(e)    Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 8.13 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.
(f)    To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.
(g)    For purposes of this Section 8.13, each Lender:

(i)    agrees it is executing and delivering this Agreement with respect to this Section 8.13 both on its own behalf and as agent for and on behalf of its Affiliates referred to in this Section 8.13 and any person receiving funds under or pursuant to any of the Loan Documents on behalf of such Lender or any of such Affiliates;
(ii)    represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that its Affiliates referred to in this Section 8.13 and any person receiving funds under or pursuant to any of the Loan Documents on behalf of such Lender or any of such Affiliates are bound by the provisions of this Section 8.13; and
(iii)    agrees that any matter or thing done or omitted to be done by such Lender, its Affiliates or any person receiving funds under or pursuant to any of the Loan Documents on behalf of such Lender or any of such Affiliates which are the subject of this Section 8.13 will be binding upon such Lender and each Lender does hereby indemnify and save the Agent and its Affiliates harmless from any and all losses, expenses, claims, demands or other liabilities of the Agent and its Affiliates resulting from the failure of such Lender, its Affiliates or such persons to comply with their obligations under and in respect of this Section 8.13, in each case, in accordance with and subject to the limitations in Section 9.08.

The provisions of Sections 2.13, 2.15, 2.19, 9.05 and 9.16 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agents, the Collateral Agents, any Lender or any Issuing Bank.

.
(a)    Generally. The terms and provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except as expressly permitted hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section, (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (f) or (h) of this Section or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (g) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void); provided that, with respect to any such assignment under the Australian Revolving Credit Facility, if such assignment would result in there being only one Australian Lender, such Lender shall acknowledge in the applicable Assignment and Acceptance that such assignment may have an effect on Australian Withholding Taxes in relation to interest payments made by the Australian Borrower. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (d) of this Section and, to the extent

expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b)    Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments (including, for purposes of this Section 9.04(b), participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans) and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(i)    Minimum Amounts.
(A)    in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment under any Facility or the Loans at the time owing to it under such Facility or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B)    in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than U.S.$5,000,000, unless each of the Applicable Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Parent Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.
(ii)    Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to the Applicable Swing Line Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of Swing Line Loans.
(iii)    Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:

|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


the Canadian Term Loan Facility, the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility, the Canadian Revolving Credit Facility or the Australian Revolving Credit Facility, if such assignment is to a person that is not a Lender under the Canadian Term Loan Facility, the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility, the Canadian Revolving Credit Facility or the Australian Revolving Credit Facility, an Affiliate of such Lender or any Approved Fund with respect to such Lender, provided that no such consent shall be required if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing; provided further that if the Parent Borrower shall fail to respond to a request for consent to an assignment within ten (10) Business Days following receipt of such request, the Parent Borrower shall be deemed to have given such consent.
(B)    the consent of the Applicable Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required (1) for assignments in respect of the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility, the Canadian Revolving Credit Facility or the Australian Revolving Credit Facility if such assignment is to a person that is not a Lender under the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility, the Canadian Revolving Credit Facility or the Australian Revolving Credit Facility, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender or (2) for assignments of Canadian Term Loans to a person who is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;
(C)    the consent of each Issuing Bank (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility, the Canadian Revolving Credit Facility or the Australian Revolving Credit Facility; and
(D)    the consent of the Applicable Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility or the Canadian Revolving Credit Facility, as applicable.
(iv)    Assignment and Acceptance. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Applicable Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided, however, that the Applicable Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment; and provided, further, that only one such fee shall be payable in the event of contemporaneous assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group). The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Applicable Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
(v)    No Assignment to Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to the Parent Borrower or any of the Parent Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.
    -173-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


(vi)    No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.
(vii)    Defaulting Lenders. No assignment shall be made to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing persons.
Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording thereof by the Applicable Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto for all purposes and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (B) such assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.11, 2.13, and 9.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.
In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Applicable Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or sub-participations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Parent Borrower and the Applicable Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Applicable Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans in accordance with its Applicable Pro Rata Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
(c)    Register. The Applicable Administrative Agent shall maintain at its applicable lending office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time
    -174-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


(the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and each of the Loan Parties, the Agents, the Issuing Banks, and the Lenders may treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. In addition, the Applicable Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Parent Borrower, the U.S. Borrowers or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(d)    Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Parent Borrower or the Applicable Administrative Agent, sell participations to any person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender or the Parent Borrower or any of the Parent Borrower’s or a Defaulting Lender’s Affiliates or subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Parent Borrower, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 9.08 that directly affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Parent Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15, 2.19 and 9.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.06 as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the applicable Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, no
    -175-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have any responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(e)    A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.13 or 2.14 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Parent Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.19 unless the Applicable Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Applicable Borrower, to comply with Section 2.19(g) as though it were a Lender.
(f)    Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(g)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Applicable Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, and (ii) if a SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement, (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by a SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Parent Borrower and the Applicable Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial
    -176-

paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.
(h)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender that is a Fund may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the note, if any, held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities, provided that unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 9.04, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise.
SECTION 9.05    Expenses; Indemnity
.

The rights of each Agent, Lender, Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Agent, Lender, Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Agent, Lender and Issuing Bank agrees to notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
SECTION 9.07    Applicable Law

SECTION 9.08    Waivers; Amendment
.
. (a)    No failure or delay of any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank in exercising any power or right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 9.08(b), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on a Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrowers to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Agents in accordance with Sections 7.02 and 7.03 for the benefit of all the Secured Parties; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) the Agent

No Lender or any Affiliate of a Lender shall have any voting rights under any Loan Document as a result of the existence of obligations owed to it under Hedging Agreements, Banking Services Obligations or the Bilateral Obligations.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.08 or any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (A) the Security Documents and related documents in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and may be, together with this Agreement, amended, supplemented and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent at the request of the Parent Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender if such amendment, supplement or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local law or advice of local counsel, or (ii) to cause such Security Documents or other documents to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (B) this Agreement and any other Loan Document may be amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender if such amendment is consummated in order (x) to correct or cure any ambiguities, errors, omissions, mistakes, inconsistencies or defects jointly identified by the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, (y) to effect administrative changes of a technical or immaterial nature or (z) to fix incorrect cross-references or similar inaccuracies in this Agreement or the applicable Loan Document; provided that, in each case, the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Lenders of such amendment and the Required Lenders shall not have objected in writing to such amendment within five Business Days of notice thereof, (C) the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may, without the consent of any Lender, enter into amendments or modifications to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or to enter into additional Loan Documents as the Administrative Agent deems appropriate in order to implement any Benchmark Replacement or any Conforming Changes or otherwise effectuate the terms of Section 2.26 in accordance with the terms thereof and (D) the Canadian Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may, without the consent of any Lender, enter into amendments or modifications to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or to enter into additional Loan Documents as the Canadian Administrative Agent deems appropriate in order to implement any Canadian Benchmark Replacement or any Canadian Conforming Change or otherwise effectuate the terms of Section 2.27 in accordance with the terms thereof.

SECTION 9.09    Interest Rate Limitation
. Regardless of any provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Documents, the Lenders shall never be deemed to have contracted for or be entitled to receive, collect or apply as interest on any Loan or participation in any L/C Disbursement any amount in excess of the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”), and in the event any Lender ever receives, collects or applies as interest (whether termed interest herein or deemed to be interest by operation of law or judicial determination) any such excess, or if an acceleration of the maturities of the Loans or if any prepayment by any Borrower results in such Borrower having paid any interest in excess of the Maximum Rate, such amount which would be excessive interest shall be deemed to be a partial prepayment of principal and applied to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of the Loans for which such excess was received, collected or applied, and, if the principal amount of the Obligations is paid in full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to the Applicable Borrower. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders for the use, forbearance or detention of the Obligations evidenced by this Agreement shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread, in equal or unequal parts, throughout the full term of such Obligations until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of such indebtedness does not exceed the Maximum Rate. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any specific contingency exceeds the Maximum Rate of interest permitted by law, the Borrowers and the Lenders shall, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, (i) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee or premium, rather than as interest; and (ii) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effect thereof; and (iii) compare the total amount of interest contracted for, charged or received with the total amount of interest which could be contracted for, charged or received throughout the entire contemplated term of the Loans at the Maximum Rate.
SECTION 9.10    Entire Agreement
. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Fee Letter constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.
SECTION 9.11    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL
. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN ANY CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. EACH PARTY HERETO
    -185-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


(A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11.
SECTION 9.12    Severability
. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.12, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Insolvency Laws, as determined in good faith by an Agent or Issuing Bank, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.
SECTION 9.13    Counterparts
. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 9.03. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission or by electronic communication (e-mail) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement. The words “execution,” “execute”, “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agents, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, require that any such documents and signatures executed electronically or delivered by fax or other electronic transmission be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided that the failure to

request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any document or signature executed electronically or delivered by fax or other electronic transmission.

(a)    Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be brought in the courts of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, New York City or of the United States for the Eastern District of such state, and by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each of the Borrowers hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of those courts. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
(c)    Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. Each Borrower waives personal service of any summons, complaint or other process, which may be made by any other means permitted by the law of such state.
(d)    Each Loan Party (other than the Parent Borrower) hereby irrevocably appoints the Parent Borrower as its agent to receive on its behalf and on behalf of its property service of copies of any summons or complaint or any other process which may be served in any action. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to such Loan Party in care of the Parent Borrower at the Parent Borrower’s address set forth in Section 9.01, and each such Loan Party hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Parent Borrower to accept such service on its behalf.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” shall mean all information received from any Loan Party relating to any Loan Party or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to an Agent, an Issuing Bank or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by any Loan Party, provided that, in the case of information received from a Loan Party after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such person would accord to its own confidential information.
SECTION 9.17    Judgment Currency
.

Lender or Issuing Bank under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against a Borrower or any other Loan Party or in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made at the Canadian Dollar Equivalent, U.S. Dollar Equivalent or Australian Dollar Equivalent, or, in the case of other currencies, the rate of exchange (as quoted by the Administrative Agent or if the Administrative Agent does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a known dealer in such currency designated by the Administrative Agent) determined, in each case, as of the date immediately preceding the day on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).
(b)    If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, each Borrower covenants and agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any judgment, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.
(c)    For purposes of determining the Canadian Dollar Equivalent, U.S. Dollar Equivalent or Australian Dollar Equivalent or rate of exchange for this Section, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency.

Act has been satisfied where to do so will not, in the reasonable opinion of the Lead Arranger or the Lenders, breach any law or regulation or any duty of confidence.
(e)    Cooperation if s128F requirement not satisfied.

SECTION 9.23    Keepwell
. The Parent Borrower hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each Guarantor to honor all of its obligations under its Guarantee in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that the Parent Borrower shall only be liable under this Section 9.23 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 9.23, or otherwise under this Agreement, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of the Parent Borrower under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until the termination of all Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit as to which other arrangements satisfactory to the Applicable Administrative Agent and the Applicable Issuing Bank have been made).

(a)    the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an Affected Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and
    -192-



|US-DOCS\152183578.7||


(b)    the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:
(i)    a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
(ii)    a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or
(iii)    the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any Affected Resolution Authority.
SECTION 9.25     Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs
. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):
In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, default rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such default rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
